07628 - cold story

Brother: "The key is to be spontaneous and voluntary, not forced or coercive. When Yunxiazong selected people as handymen, outer sects, and inner sects, it was picking out the type that can resonate and be so spontaneous in thinking. After that, the disciples will not be wronged to contribute to the sect, but happily reach a win-win situation with the sect."

Brother: "Sun Sixiao's demands on us have already exceeded the scope of a happy and win-win situation. So let him go."

Me: "Uncle Sun is testing the boundaries of Yunxiazong's rules, logic, and Tao?"

Brother: "Maybe. He couldn't find his own Dao, so he might try to find the commonality of the Yunxia Sect's disciples in the Yunxia Sect, and then extract his own Dao from it. It's like a mentally retarded person."

Me: "It can't be described as mentally retarded, right?"

Brother: "Let's make an analogy. You can't figure out what to eat tonight, so you go to look up the history of food development in the world..."

Me: "Flipping through it, I found something that looks delicious. That's right."

Brother: "Since the first time humans discovered that fire can roast food, we have seen the evolution of various cooking and food storage utensils such as pots and pans. I have seen many things change from ornamentals, medicines, weapons, etc. to food. Or seasoning, researching the relationship between culture and food in various places... I found that food runs through all aspects of biological existence, and the exploration is endless, but after spending a lot of time on research, I still only know the superficial."

Brother: "I was too obsessed with this grand subject, forgot the time and the original purpose, never thought of finding dinner, and finally starved to death. Even when I was hungry and panicked, I was still thinking about the past dynasty. The chaos of the ages caused by hunger and the cause of hunger."

Me: "...This story is a bit cold."

Brother: "What Sun Sixiao is doing now is this kind of cold story. How many things does a monk's Tao contain? The Tao of a sect contains most aspects of the Tao of all the disciples it has ever had, so how many things does it contain?" ? He can't study the former clearly but expects to study the latter? Is it inappropriate for me to say that he is mentally retarded?"

Me: "I remember that Uncle Sun didn't harass you and sister much in the past? It should even be said that he avoided seeing you a little bit. He was only interested in harassing me and Dad. Has he changed his mind about you in recent years?"

Brother: "Maybe. The cultivation base has improved a little, and part of the thought of fear has been eliminated, so the behavior is more relaxed. Then he found that the things he was afraid of were not as terrible as expected, but the behavior of letting go did not change." It was so inspiring in anticipation. He kept some meaningless things in the treasure chest for a long time and had high hopes for them, but when he needed to use them, the reality told him that they were just scraps. His treasure direction was wrong."

07629 - just exist

Brother: "Prophecy is sometimes like gambling. If you bet correctly, you can predict the enemy first and get ahead of every step, and you can make a lot of money; if you make a wrong bet, you will be a waste of time. It’s fine if you study narrowly, but you still apply this narrowly learned result to yourself, and you still believe in it.”

Brother: "When did the fortune-teller fortune-tell me? Go ask the experts who peek at Tianmen. Although the experts will not explicitly say that you can't fortune-tell yourself, they will definitely say that fortune-telling is inaccurate."

Brother: "Divination is an altruistic question."

Me: "If two fortune-tellers fortune-tell each other and benefit each other, can they win together? It seems that Uncle Sun took Xie Jingyi as his apprentice with this idea."

Brother: "When you give divination to the other party, you think that the other party will give you a divination back. Your divination is highly integrated with yourself, that is, it becomes yourself in disguise. You can only think of yourself, abandon yourself, and see yourself. Only by being nothing can we touch the reality of the world.”

Brother: "The foundation of the world has no concept of self-interest, only the concept of 'existence'. If you exist, you can exist; if you perish, you will no longer exist, or exist in another form. If a fortuneteller cannot understand If you have the same idea, you will not be able to resonate with the world, let alone use resonance to shake out hidden time and space and development clues."

Brother: "That's how I understand it. Of course, I'm an outsider to fortune-tellers, so my understanding must be biased, but Sun Sixiao's understanding is definitely no better than mine. His state is only one step away from being insane, thank you Qin Wei and Yuan Jing is also very courageous, and gave him his son to raise."

Me: "The parents don't want to, but they can't persuade their own son, and the rules of Yunxiazong don't allow them to interfere with the disciples of the same sect—even their own sons—by coercive means. But the problem is not too big, thank you Qin Wei's master, Fu Yingqun, has rich experience in managing people, so he should be able to pay attention to Sun Sixiao's condition, and pull Xie Jingyi out of the danger zone in time when Sun's major trouble occurs."

Me: "For Xie Jingyi, although worshiping such a master and running around with him, the danger level must be significantly higher than that of his fellow disciples with the same cultivation level, but it also maintains his freshness of the world, which will make him stronger. I can find joy in cultivation. If it is in a normal and peaceful environment, Xie Jingyi may feel bored and be too lazy to practice."

Me: "Outsiders say it's not important whether it's good or bad, the key is to suit yourself. I think Xie Jingyi is very happy playing with Uncle Sun."

Brother: "I like to play dangerous games. Xie Jingyi's interest is likely to be a troublesome person in the future."

07630-self is the subject

Me: "Maybe it's just the opposite. Xie Jingyi took on the dangerous part himself, and outsiders can only feel dumbfounded when they get along with him? Tao Yaoji, the medicine sect, doesn't like me very much, but even after experiencing Xie Jingyi's willfulness, Tao Yaoji For Xie Jingyi, it seems that I can communicate with him."

Me: "Because Xie Jingyi only seems to be a research addict who focuses on his own preferences. Tao Yaoji can probably understand the state of being too focused on one aspect and neglecting other people's things, but Tao Yaoji thinks that I am looking for trouble for nothing. Deliberately provocative."

Brother: "I think Fellow Daoist Tao's thinking is correct."

Me: "Actually, I am also very focused, focusing on everything in the whole world."

Brother: "When the scope of concentration is too broad, it is not concentration. Just like Sun Sixiao's too extensive research on Dao, it will not have a positive effect on his own enlightenment. His way of finding opportunities, if placed in the foundation stage , It is also possible to bump into the right position to upgrade by mistake, but you want to rely on luck to become a god of transformation? As long as the Medicine Sect does not research the elixir that can assist in the transformation of the god of transformation, this is impossible."

Brother: "When the Medicine Sect researched the elixir of the auxiliary upgrade series, how prosperous it was. All the resources in the world were tilted towards their family, and they were expected to change the pattern of the cultivation world, but at the most they only tossed out the auxiliary infant formation. It’s just a pill. The Nascent Soul Stage can’t change the structure of the cultivation world. If it comes to the era when the Nascent Soul Stage can change the pattern, the cultivation world is almost over.”

If the Wuge Secret Realm can emerge from the Nascent Soul stage, it will obviously be a great joy to prosper the cultivation world.

Me: "Can the auxiliary upgrade-like pills in the main world work in the secret realm? For example, can it create the Nascent Soul Stage for the Wuge secret realm?"

Brother: "It can work to a certain extent, but it's not that subversive. The addition of 'auxiliary' to the name of this category of elixir clearly shows that it can only be used under the premise of having the main force. There is a chance of success in assisting. No matter how you have to cultivate to the peak of Jindan, you can rely on Yuanying Pill to conceive babies. After taking Yuanying Pill at Jindan Peak, it can only be said that the chance of conceiving babies has increased, and the failure rate of crossing the catastrophe is higher than normal The Nascent Soul Trial is high, and the quality of the babies produced is also poor."

Brother: "External objects are always external objects. What monks have been doing in their practice is to internalize external objects into their own strength, and the final foothold must be themselves. The self is an absolute and unshakable subject. Once you go to rely on Foreign objects, shifting the focus of upgrading to elixir, this way of cultivation will be broken. Afterwards, even if you continue to improve your level by relying on elixirs, spirit stones, natural materials and earth treasures, it is only an upgrade machine, and a single Spiritual root is like building a foundation without putting in effort, it is a fluctuating luck, not a power that can be controlled by oneself.”

Brother: "Are you willing to pin your future on luck or rewards from other people and things? I hope I can have the power to decide whether to take it or not. I want to take it, and there is no power to stop me from getting it; I don't want it. Yes, I can say no."

Brother: "I don't need others to stuff good things into my hands. I am willing to define whether things are good or bad and whether I want to buy them."

07631 - Unexpected failure

I sent the nine monster formations to my brother: "Help me analyze the formation diagram.".

Me: "If you give me the analysis result, is it considered that I got it based on my strength?"

While reading the information, my brother said: "It's okay. The pre-information you gave me has made me interested in research, and then I will share my research results with you. I hope you can give me more feedback. Mutual benefits, no You unilaterally took advantage of me... Are these things really monsters?"

Me: "Not sure, let's just call it that. After all, if it is called spirit monsters, I haven't found their bodies yet. One guess is that their bodies are a small secret realm, and the small secret realm is divided into multiple pieces. Each piece corresponds to A spirit."

The elder brother pulled the elder sister into our chat platform: "Pei Miao, guess the elixir that Tao Yaoji wants to refine. Using Yao Ling's corpse as an important material, he emphasized that it is a corpse and that the corpse must contain nuclear fragments. What type of Dan?"

Me: "If I can guess the main point—one is enough—I can use it to match Tao Yaoji's words."

The elder sister looked at the past information shared by the elder brother, and at the same time disliked me: "What's the rush? The pills of the Yaozong will definitely be sold after being refined. Isn't it much easier to buy and study? Now research, I suspect Tao Yao Sabi himself doesn’t even know what he can achieve. The difference between planning in advance and practicing after getting the actual materials can be very big.”

Elder Sister: "The higher the level of alchemy and the higher the level of materials used, the greater the uncertainty in the development of new pills. It is often not that you find the right materials according to the plan, but that you find them after you get the materials." Appropriate usage plan. What's the use of Tao Yaoji making a detailed plan before refining? It's not a waste of time. Now he can only see if the jelly beans he got from Xie Jingyi can trigger new inspiration."

Old lady: "Actually, even if Sun Sixiao didn't intervene, even if you, Ying Tishang, and Zuo Yugui strictly implemented Tao Yaoji's plan, the materials Tao Yaoji got in the end might not meet his expectations."

Old sister: "This kind of material is almost pure spiritual power. Various factors in the environment may cause it to undergo great changes. Even a dead leaf floating near it may change it from fire to wood. Attributes. It is impossible for Medicine Sect Danxiu to be unaware of this point, so Tao Yaoji’s detailed entrustment is just a gamble. If he wins the bet, he will be happy to show it off to the whole Medicine Sect, but if he loses the bet, it is only expected.”
