"Third question, senior brother, since you are approaching the end of your life, why don't you ask the master for an external elixir, which can extend your life for at least another three hundred years." The young Taoist said seriously.
"There are no regrets when the elixir is achieved. Even if there is an external elixir, it is better to enter reincarnation early than to live an idiotic life for a while." The third questioner replied coldly.
"Is there really reincarnation in this world? I only want this life, not the next life." The young Taoist stood up from his clothes and went out leisurely.
A piece of moonlight shone coldly and faintly, just at the feet of the third monk.
The moonlight was like sand, gathering continuously, and finally formed a human figure, which was the Three Apostles, with all the decorations on the corners of their clothes lifelike.
The Taoist closed the door, the moonlight dispersed, and the room was quiet.
After leaving the body, the soul condensed and absorbed the moonlight, so that it was no different from a stranger, but it was also much stronger than Shen Lian's soul.
Although Shen Lian can also absorb the supernatural forces of heaven and earth, such as moonlight, to give birth to a human form, but it cannot last long, and it is difficult to achieve such a solid effect.
But when it comes to the realm of the soul, there is actually no essential difference between the two.
Of course Shen Lian couldn't see the situation here.
As the energy gathers into the body, Shen Lian's soul power observes the changes in the body caused by the energy entering the body in extremely subtle ways.
It feels like a person who has been walking in the desert for a long time and is terribly thirsty. Suddenly he encounters an oasis, finds a source of water, and replenishes his body's water.
The mystery of Yuan Qi is not just that. When the power of Shen Lian's soul penetrates into Yuan Qi, he suddenly falls into a very strange state.
Not all the vitality remains in the body, some vitality still leaks out.
The power of Shen Lian's soul was placed in it, and it also came out of the body.
Different from the perception he got countless times in the past when the power of the soul escaped outside, this time the world was no longer what he saw in his eyes.
Perhaps the vitality of the bamboo house here was ten times or a hundred times stronger than anywhere he had ever been. It was as if under a magnifying glass, he saw a scene he had never seen before.
This strange feeling made him feel that in addition to vitality, there were eight eternal forces that made up the entire world.
It's hard to describe. He seemed to be swimming in the boundless sky for a while, and then landed on the solid earth.
I saw the earth bulge, the soil formed mountains, the wind and rain roared, and I heard the thunder of nine days. The heavy rain submerged the land, gradually turning into lakes and seas. The land was covered with dense forests, and later there were raging fires.
He suddenly thought of the eight hexagrams of the Book of Changes: heaven, earth, mountains, rivers, water, fire, wind, and thunder.
Eight different forces, under the connection of vitality, are constantly changing to form the real material world.
As for the reason for the conversion, he didn't understand it at all.
It is even more impossible to influence these eight forces.
The vitality that came out of his body was reintegrated into the vitality of nature in the world. The soul power was no longer wrapped up, and it returned to Shen Lian's usual perception.
Shen Lian's heart moved. The wisps of moonlight leaking from the window lattice were absorbed by his soul power that had just escaped.
The moonlight continued to condense, and finally formed a swaying flame.
The soul power actually doesn't feel like it is being consumed as quickly as before.
After arriving in front of him, Shen Lian opened his eyes, took a slow breath, extinguished the flames, and the trace of soul power returned to his body. Compared with the original soul power, it felt a little more solid.
****
Early the next morning, Lu Sheng came to knock on Shen Lian's door early.
After a night's rest, it seemed that he had regained his energy.
While walking in the corridor, Lu Sheng said, "Brother Shen, can you stop eating fireworks?"
Shen Lian said: "It's not even close to being overheated, but Brother Lu has been in the state of asking for food for so long without eating. He has already reached the realm of Bigu."
Lu Sheng seems careless, but there are no simple people who can enter Qingxuan. It is difficult for a person like Shen Lian, who has a strong soul and a strong mind, to ask his mind. It is easy to say, but it is not easy. I know it is false. But you may not be able to come out.
"Brother Shen may not know. In fact, I don't want people like you to practice inner energy since childhood, but study the Four Books and Five Classics since childhood. I won the imperial examination when I was twelve years old. Last year, when I was seventeen years old, I went to take the exam. , I was on the road and stayed at an inn. If it hadn’t been for that encounter, I might have been on the gold medal list now." Lu Sheng looked a little strange when he talked about this incident.
"I don't know what Brother Lu went through before he had the heart to follow the Tao." Shen Lian looked calm and said casually.
"At that time, I was tired from the journey, so I planned to stay at an inn. The most famous thing about this inn was the yellow rice. I had heard about it for a long time, so after I entered, I ordered a bowl. The rice must be cooked freshly. When I felt good, I found a table and waited slowly. There was also a Taoist priest sitting on the table.
I was really sleepy at the time, so the Taoist priest took out a small porcelain pillow for me to sleep on. I put the porcelain pillow on the table, lay on it, and fell asleep immediately. I fell asleep at that time and fell asleep immediately. In my dreamland, I had a wonderful dream of enjoying a lifetime of glory and wealth. When I woke up, the rice was not yet cooked.
To be honest, when I became famous when I was young, it was the time to devote myself to fame and wealth, but after that dream, I felt that it was not interesting.
Suddenly, the Taoist heart was born, and I wanted to pursue the Tao and find the truth, and see if this world was also like a dream. "
Lu Sheng seemed to have been holding this matter in his heart for a long time, and he said it very freely.
Shen Lian smiled inwardly, thinking of a piece of news he saw in his previous life, saying that a certain student read a novel. The protagonist also dreamed of traveling across the world due to a fairy tale when he was young, and decided to embark on the road of seeking Taoism and seeking truth. So he followed his example and ran away from home to go to a nearby Taoist temple to become a disciple. In the end, the Taoist priest in the temple informed his parents and gave him a meal of fried bamboo shoots.
Lu Sheng looks tall and tall, but he is actually not very old. He left home thousands of miles away and came to Qingxuan to seek help. I wonder if his parents know.
Since Lu Sheng was able to win the imperial examination at a young age, he was obviously well-educated. In this world, the possibility of someone coming from a poor family to be the top scholar is very slim. After all, the imperial examination has been implemented in this world for a long time. How can children from ordinary families receive the same education as those from wealthy families? In comparison, but to solve the problem, wealthy people can hire famous teachers to give personal guidance. How can ordinary people not have such convenience
When he thought about this, he couldn't help but think of himself. In fact, he was extremely irresponsible. He left the Shen family and asked for immortality. It was really a fifty step and a hundred step.
Lu Sheng saw Shen Lian laughing and asked, "Brother Shen, why are you laughing?"
"I was just wondering if the family would be worried about Brother Lu coming all the way." Shen Lian stopped his smile and said slowly.
"I plan to become a Taoist in ten years, and then if this is not a dream, I will help my parents live forever. I left a letter home and explained my reasons in detail, and they will understand." Lu Sheng said very seriously.
"This junior brother is very confident. He has achieved success in practicing Taoism in ten years. Even the reincarnations of Buddha and Taoist masters have not been able to practice so fast." On one side of the corridor, there was a young Taoist leaning on the railing, arms folded, Looking at the two people, he smiled and said.
