04111 - True and False

Zou Yu: "Why did you set it for 5 minutes for the first time? Can't you set it for [-] seconds?"

Shi Bolin: "No, the minimum setup time for that project is 5 minutes, no matter how short it is, it won't work."

Meiberry: "What effect do you want to achieve?"

Xie Qinwei: "Don't try the effect a second time after trying it once, save energy for the instrument."

Shi Bolin: "It's a threat: if you cause trouble, we will punish you with this."

Me: "The Discipline Department of Yunxiazong does not have this punishment item." The punishment of the Discipline Department generally has incidental output, such as punishing spiritual plants, cleaning spirit beasts, recharging spirit stones, chopping stones to modify... even if it is Throwing the disciples into the ice cave is also to consume the energy of the ice cave to maintain the stability of the ice cave.The Yunxia Sect seldom uses punishments that are purely "making disciples feel uncomfortable while others don't get any benefits", and it doesn't involve daily minor mistakes at all.

Shi Bolin: "It's Qi Xiufeng's lynching. Qi Xiufeng has a lot of torture tools, it's terrible."

Xie Qinwei: "You, a disciple of Fu Xiufeng, went to Qi Xiufeng to cause trouble, and if you were caught, you can only say that you deserve it."

Shi Bolin: "I didn't mess with it, they used me as a guinea pig."

Me: "The experimental product should be paid for."

Shi Bolin: "I have harvested a lot of weird prototype utensils. Do you want beauties? Some of them are quite special, and they are not sold on the market. I will show you when I get back."

Me: "Okay, I'll take a look when I get back, if there's something I like, I'll take it."

Zhuang Cong: "Although I can move my hands and feet now and release some of my spiritual power, I still have that sense of restraint. I don't know, it seems that the part I can move is just my fantasy, it seems that the real me has never moved , the accumulation of anxiety makes me want to scream, but even if I shout out, it is just like a fantasy in my head, not real. Even when I talk to you, it seems to be just a simulation in my head, In fact, I didn't talk to you at all."

Zhuang Cong: "I feel as if I have died or become a vegetable. I feel in a trance that all the actions I do are fake and do not exist."

Me: "We can't help you with your own feeling problems. Take a deep breath and stare at the countdown card seriously. When you return to the main world, you should soon usher in a thunder disaster. When the thunder disaster is over, if you still divide If you don’t know what is true and what is false...you can only continue to distinguish. My experience is that it doesn’t matter, and it doesn’t matter if you don’t distinguish, as long as you know what you want, what you are doing, and what you are doing Whether it is directly related to what you want, that’s fine.”

04112 - distraction

Me: "I also often wonder if my current life is the fantasy of my last life before I died. I came to the conclusion that it doesn't matter. I write a beautiful story for myself and send myself to sleep. It’s pretty good. Whether it’s living hard or weaving dreams hard, as long as you can make yourself happy, that’s enough.”

Me: "I don't expect me to be of much benefit to the world, I just want to ensure that I am in a good mood. My mood, my thinking, is my world. The philosopher said 'I think, therefore I am', which makes sense. I In the past, I always felt that I don’t like philosophy, because there is no definite answer to any question in philosophy, and repeated debates seem to be a waste of time and energy without any output; now I still say, I don’t like philosophy, Even though my thinking often seems to have entered the field of philosophy, but that is not my purpose, it is just passing by. But it doesn’t matter whether I like it or not, I have to use it when I need it, and it has nothing to do with likes or dislikes.”

Me: "It's like I always think that I don't like debates, because trying to convince the opponent, the audience, and change the values ​​​​of adults is a pipe dream; I can't understand the fun of arguing for the outcome and ranking. It’s not bad if you can clarify your own thinking during the debate. It doesn’t matter what your opponent’s debate is, and in the end you only talk to yourself and make yourself more firm in your thinking, which is valuable.”

Zhuang Cong: "Does what you said have anything to do with my current crossing robbery? It seems to have happened at the beginning, but then the topic diverged to something irrelevant?"

Me: "Is it irrelevant? Everything is related. In fact, what I said now is not important, what is important is that I diverted your attention, right? When you are distracted to look at me and listen to my answer, your irritability Is it lowered?"

Zhuang Cong: "...um."

Me: "Isn't that enough? If you have anything else you are interested in, bring it up, and I'll tell you about it, and try to talk about it when we leave the secret realm."

Zhuang Cong: "Do you know why I am not called Senior Pu Master?"

Me: "I can't understand the matter of senior, so I just guess casually. Maybe it's not up to you to decide, but Senior Pu thinks he is not suitable to be your master in the full sense? He teaches you exercises and accompany you Practice swords, but he may feel that he can't guide you to find your way? He is more like raising a junior he likes, pointing here and there, rather than teaching an apprentice in all aspects?"

Me: "Maybe Senior Pu really wanted to accept you as an apprentice when he first brought you by his side, but he soon found out that it was not suitable. If he really became a master and apprentice, if he really entered the formal realm of Dao, he might delay You, on the contrary, as a more casual elder, he can provide you with more help."

04113- Bonded by blood

Me: "I guess Senior Pu thought about finding another master for you after he found out that he was not suitable to be your master, including thinking about finding a school for you, but it may be that Senior Pu's vision is too high, or it may be that your Tao is rather special. , Senior Pu didn't find a suitable one, so I let you go without a master. In fact, some people really don't need a master. One more peace of mind, or one more reliable background."

Me: "Senior Pu has already given you peace of mind and backing, so if you can find your way by yourself, you don't need a master."

Me: "Actually, I don't usually call my father a master. I usually call him a father. I even call him Elder Pei more often than I call a master. In fact, I have never formally called a teacher. Because of the relationship between me and my father. , the father-son relationship always comes first, and the master-student relationship is just incidental."

Zhuang Cong: "In the realm of comprehension, isn't the master-student relationship greater than the father-son relationship?"

Me: "The formation of this concept is because among fathers and sons in the cultivation world, there are too few fathers who can be their son's master. Including those in the cultivation family, there are very few who can do this. After all, most parents only practice qi building when their children are born. In the base period, the parents themselves haven’t become teachers yet, how can they teach the apprentices?”

Zou Huan: "Hey, excuse me, in the third-rate sects, you can teach apprentices in the foundation stage. If you are not a high-level sect, you can teach them in the Qi training stage."

Me: "It's obviously of no reference value for the stage of becoming a god, and even if it can be taught, it is generally not accepted as an apprentice in a hurry, because it also involves issues such as occupation and interest. I am in the same situation as Zhuang Cong. When we need to choose a master, there are already people among the closest elders around us who can teach us, and the occupation is also suitable, it seems that we can just learn from the master directly. But the problem is, from the "closest elders" to the "master", the way of getting along may be different. Changes will happen, and if 'close elders' have made us and the elders comfortable enough, then 'change' may not need to happen."

Me: "It's not that change is definitely bad, but it's not necessary. It might as well keep the relationship between the two parties in a blurred zone. There is no actual apprenticeship, but there is already teaching and learning between master and apprentice. This may be more in favor of the aristocratic family model, especially the aristocratic family that could compete with the scale of the sect during the prosperous period. At that time, there were no masters and apprentices in the aristocratic family, and they were all relatives. The learning progress of the juniors does not conflict. The natural advantage of blood relationship in this aspect is incomparable to sects. There is inherent connection and harmony in blood relationship, but it takes a lot of fate and adjustment to achieve that level of connection between strangers."

04-Determined

Me: "Our elders took advantage of blood ties to downplay the acquired master-student bond, or in other words, integrated the master-student bond into the blood ties instead of raising awareness separately."

Zhuang Cong: "But I don't have such a close blood connection with Senior Pu. In terms of blood relationship, Senior Pu and I are actually similar to strangers."

Me: "But Senior Pu must have emphasized to you that you are his descendant by blood when he brought you by his side, right? You should have heard that Senior Pu has done a lot of investigations to confirm this blood relationship? Like You should also have heard that in order to determine the relationship between me and my father, various parties have done a lot of research. These things have actually formed a sense of connection in our hearts: you and Pu Senior, I and my father are very close. , more intimate than master-student.”

Me: "This certainty in our hearts makes it easier for us to accept their teachings, because we believe that with our closeness to them, they will not harm us. Trust, acceptance, and recognition are just the same between master and disciple. That's it, since our relationship with them has reached this stage, why bother to add another apprenticeship ceremony? The intimacy of blood is simply suppressed to increase the seriousness of master and apprentice, and the final effect is nothing more than "mutual trust" , Teaching and learning'. After going around in a circle, I returned to the original point, tossing around."

Ming Qige: "But when it comes to teaching, it's better to be serious? If the relationship is too close, the serious things are not done seriously, and acting like a baby will be let go without punishment. This will not achieve a good teaching effect."

Me: "This has to be analyzed in detail. For example, if you let Junior Sister Qin Wei Jiaoyuan, there will probably be problems."

Xie Qinwei: "Hello."
