Wu Yugang felt that he had changed a lot. The quiet place of Dragon Palace also brought great benefits to this mortal who practiced in the world. After all, mortals rarely have such an opportunity to absorb the pure energy of heaven and earth in deep water. Such spiritual energy is not available in the world. It is like the freshness of the fish and the lushness of the water plants. The nourishment of such spiritual energy allowed this young man who practiced Taoism to see himself and the world around him more clearly.
In such an environment, Wu Yugang's strong character and steady foundation made him improve invisibly. Such improvement is what any Taoist practitioner wants. However, Wu Yugang did not feel this unintentional improvement. It is often the case that it is difficult to feel the real improvement, and what you feel is not the real improvement.
In the Dragon Palace, Wu Yugang didn't know how long he had been chatting with the Dragon King. He had a deep understanding of the world. Wu Yugang felt like an ignorant child. Many things in the world were still so fresh and curious to him. After all, this young man was still young. But to be able to obtain one of the great ways of heaven and earth and to learn something, it must be said that this is also rare.
Wu Yugang learned from the old Dragon King that the Monkey King also had his own selfish thoughts. The heavens were just as complicated as the human world. And the gods also had selfish thoughts. From the Monkey King, he learned that the evil in the human world could not be driven away, and the evil people in the human world were countless. Killing them was also impossible, just like the dragon, which was also an alien when it was born, and it was difficult to stop it.
In this complex world, it seems easy to go with the flow. However, it seems not easy to stick to one's inherent duty in this complex world. In this world, those who stick to their own nature are swallowed up by worldly desires. It is precisely these swallowed up things that the Taoists want to find, stick to and cultivate.
Although this method of cultivation seems simple, it is not easy to stick to the pure origin in this society with constant desires! And it is not easy for cultivators in the world. The rare talent is hard to find. This talent is like a seed. What kind of seed will produce what kind of fruit. In this cultivation, you have to endure all kinds of ups and downs. Only in this way can the most beautiful flowers bloom.
This is the meaning of practicing Taoism. Only by experiencing the pain can one feel the results that one has never felt before. This is not due to the curiosity of the world, but the result of fighting a just battle, experiencing all kinds of hardships and various trials. Just like Sun Wukong, although he has the ability to deceive the sky, he still has to experience the pain of being suppressed and the journey to the West to obtain the scriptures.
Wu Yugang had many memories in the Dragon Palace, which made him miss the past endlessly. Such memories were not necessarily bad. They made this young man who had experienced so much hardship mature a lot. These were far from being learned through verbal education. Instead, he experienced the endless hardships of the world and gained his own insights in such a quiet environment.
It is not easy to gain something from adversity. Many people have experienced a lot, but have gained very little. In comparison, there seems to be a world of difference.
Wu Yugang, who had been in the Dragon Palace for a long time, also experienced the taste of the Dragon Palace here. It was really a different feeling in his heart. Here he experienced the love of his parents, the indifference of the world, and the impermanence of heaven. These made this child who once resented his parents change greatly in his heart. This change was the endless and intangible love given by the tribe.
This universal love is also compassion in the divine world. However, in the face of such universal love, the so-called laws of heaven seem insignificant and hateful.
Wu Yugang bid farewell to the Yangtze River Dragon God, left the Dragon Palace, and flew high in the sky. At this time, the surroundings were sunny. The bright sunshine, shining warmly on the world, seemed so kind. However, the little-known legends hidden behind this sunshine also made people feel endless sadness. After all, behind this seemingly kind sunshine, there are also cruel and bloody lessons.
However, the sun hanging high in the sky is also seen by people every day. However, people in the world turn a blind eye to it. The bloody lesson hanging above people's heads is also difficult to wake people from their desires. This desire is also like a nightmare that troubles people. I don't know when people who are in the dream of desire will wake up from it and see through the emptiness of the world and the hardship brought by desire.
The sky is high and the earth is vast. In that endless emptiness, there are countless unknown things hidden. And such things are inseparable from human beings. However, human beings, who are confused by fame and wealth, find it difficult to see through these things. They are always in that muddled dream.
Wu Yugang now felt extremely refreshed. After all, the heaven was also troubled. But he could also be much more relaxed. As the saying goes, there is nothing to worry about in the world, only mediocre people worry about it. But Wu Yugang, the dragon who was banished to the mortal world, also had his own things to do.
Wu Yugang returned to Yangjiayu. It was ten in the morning. Yang Wushuang had just finished practicing. The Purple Cloud Sword that he practiced had also made great progress, and he was very happy. When he was finishing his practice, Wu Yugang suddenly appeared in front of Yang Wushuang.
Yang Wushuang had not noticed at first, and was startled by Wu Yugang's quiet arrival. When he looked carefully, he found that it was the junior brother who often wandered outside. Although he was very surprised, he was also furious at this naughty junior brother. He said angrily: "How dare you be so rude. You are rebellious!" After that, he used the sheathed sword in his hand as a rolling pin and chased Wu Yugang.
Suddenly, a burst of laughter was heard in this quiet courtyard.
Mrs. Yang was busy in the house. The silence outside was suddenly broken by the laughter. She felt a little strange. When she watched from the door, she saw her daughter and Wu Yugang playing in the yard. They didn't look like adults at all. She shook her head and said, "When will this child grow up?"
Yang Mingyu, who did not go out, shook his head and said, "It's hard for these two children. There has been no laughter like this in this yard for a long time."
Madam Yang heard this and replied, "You are the only one who pampers them. Do they still act like adults? They are all spoiled!"
Yang Mingyu said: "What's the big deal? We haven't had such a joyful atmosphere in our courtyard for a long time!"
When Madam Yang heard this, she looked a little unnatural, with a hint of resentment.
Yang Mingyu looked at his wife's sad face and suddenly said, "The child is not a child anymore. I think it's time to arrange the wedding. What do you think?" (To be continued)
