My Taoist Career

Chapter 166 Unlocking the Mystery of the Lake of Ghosts

Finally... After hearing the words of the master, the sadness in my heart suddenly reached the extreme. After all, having the master's blessing and not having the master's blessing are two completely different concepts.

Even if the ancestor is in a spirit state, he can't make a move or do anything from now on, but as long as he is there, he can give us great psychological comfort.

Accompanied by this kind of sadness, there is a strong anxiety. I don't know why I should be uneasy. Even if the master leaves, there is no danger. Why should I be uneasy?

My face was ugly, and I stood beside the boundary marker, Chengzhen said excitedly: "Master, why do you want to part with us? Aren't you going to find our master with us? They are also your apprentices, They disappeared looking for you, did you...?"

Cheng Zhen spoke bluntly, which made me feel depressed for a while. I opened my mouth and said to Cheng Zhen: "Cheng Zhen, don't say any more. Don't tell me you want to be disrespectful to Master?"

Cheng Zhen retreated behind me with red eyes, but Master turned around and looked at us and said: "She said what she wanted to say, it is natural for our old Li family to laugh and scold, what we say is true, our attitude is true, and our heart is also true." It will be true! Seniority or something, don't take it too seriously."

"Master, since you don't like rules and are so free and easy, why can't you be more free and easy with us?" Cheng Yuan couldn't help but speak at this moment.

The master said: "I have my own reasons, and I will explain them to you later. But anyway, you fought a battle in the Lake of Myriad Ghosts, don't you want to know all about it?"

Since the master said so, I remembered the hint in the master's video tape. It is said that there is a chance for the lake of ghosts. We have fought until now, but we haven't seen any chance... indefinite!

Thinking of this, I suppressed my sadness and nodded to Master.

The master didn't speak, but looked at the ferryman, as the ferryman was already very weak at this moment, he leaned against the boundary marker and half-closed his eyes, Hui Gen'er lit a fire in front of him, as if he felt the gaze of the master, he opened his eyes. Eyes opened.

"When Master Hongren was around, he once said that what can be said is what has been let go! What cannot be said is the eternal knot in the heart." The voice of the ferryman was a little weak, but what he said suddenly was a little inexplicable if.

We were silent, and Hui Gener sat obediently next to the ferryman. The ferryman didn't look at us, but took a sip of the wine he asked us for before, and continued: "Now I should tell you little guys about the past. Speaking of which, you are also benefactors who helped me untangle my heart. I have explained the matter to you, and my worries will be over, so I should go. "

"Master Zu." Hui Gen'er called out in a low voice, his mood when facing the ferryman was not the same as our mood when facing our master.

"Is Huijue okay? From your conversations, I know that Li Chun'er, the little guy from back then, is looking for Daoist Li. According to my apprentice's temperament, I should be the one who will go after him. After all, he doesn't have a monk who needs to be protected." Facing Hui Gen'er's call, the ferryman suddenly said that.

"I don't know if Master is alright? Because you guessed right, Master, Master went with Master Jiang." Hui Gen'er's voice became smaller and smaller, and then her eyes turned red.

"As expected, there will be a kind of apprentice with the kind of master. In fact, let's use the relationship between Huijue and Nali Chun'er as a metaphor. The friendship between me and Naning Zhifeng back then is like this. Different It's just that I have Master Hongren, the super-savior monk who guards me, but Huijue doesn't have it. What's more different is that my apprentice has a better eye for seeing people than I do." Speaking of this, the ferryman took a sip of his wine, his expression very painful .

We were silent, their feelings may not be so strong, but I have a very strong understanding of the pain of the ferryman. After all, my growth trajectory was accompanied by not only my master, but also the figure of Master Hui, No one knows better than me what their relationship is like. It is a friendship between men who are closer than brothers and can give their lives. If this relationship is betrayed, the two parties will become hostile. Even having to kill one party, that kind of pain... is like asking me to kill Su Rou and Qin Huai.

Therefore, I suddenly understood a little bit how the ferryman felt when facing the master's question, he didn't make up his mind and avoided the master's gaze.

And the voice of the ferryman continued to tell: "Master Hongren is not a person who likes to go out, and spends most of his time studying Buddhism. But at that time, as a monk, I couldn't stay idle. I hope to travel far and wide, to learn more, to be a hero, to be happy! Ning Zhifeng was my best friend at that time. We had the same ambition, so we walked together naturally. Before the ferry into the lake, most of my years were Together with Ning Zhifeng, we have been to many places, encountered many dangers, and also gained a lot. These experiences made us brothers who are bound by life... Later, we even accepted each other as apprentices , has not changed, as long as we need each other, in a word, we can let go of everything and accompany each other on adventures."

What the ferryman said was very simple, but in a few words, he had already described the friendship at that time and the glorious years of his youth.

"We are so good, but it doesn't mean there are no conflicts. The conflict lies in each other's goals. In my opinion, going out for a walk is for a chivalrous person, for a mortal man's heart, and for accumulating merit... and Ning Zhi What Feng usually likes to study most is the secrets in the circle, as well as the legends of immortals everywhere, and the stories of successful cultivation. He goes out for a walk because of various opportunities, opportunities that can allow him to achieve the Dao. We debated about this, but no one could convince the other. Later, we didn't mention this matter. After all, in my opinion, it is impossible for a cultivator to live his life without seeking the Dao and the right fruit. It’s not wrong to think about it, as long as you don’t do those outrageous things. Now it seems that I was wrong.” Speaking of this, the ferryman’s face showed a bit of bitterness again, and he took a big gulp of wine .

We all sighed, yes, it’s right to seek the Dao and the right fruit, but if you get into it with all your heart, you forget the most important tempering of your mind, and it’s very easy to go astray, so what’s the Dao?What are you talking about?Even if he becomes a heaven-defying existence in the end, he will not be recognized by the righteous path and righteous fruit. Why can't many cultivators realize this level?Or is it because you are too desperate on the road of practice, and you are willing to take more extreme methods to give yourself a chance?

I'm still young, and I don't understand this level of state of mind, so I have no way to solve this doubt.

"The Lake of Ten Thousand Ghosts is our last adventure. After that, he became the new city owner here, and I became the ferryman here! I don't want to go into details about the specific process, but in the end, I will I found out that Ning Zhifeng has been practicing in an extreme way for a long time. Many times I have adventured with him, looking for something to help his practice! He deceived me with high-sounding reasons, and the ghosts The lake is his last step." The ferryman's tone became very fast, but we were confused and did not understand what it meant.

The master sighed at this time, and added: "The meaning is very simple. Taoist practice is about having both body and spirit, and the final goal is metaphysics! This is the Dao of Taoism. If the souls are connected together, they can attain the Dao! No matter how bad it is, it is the soul that has accumulated enough merits and virtues to be able to get enough protection and reincarnation! But these two roads, no matter which one can be called the misty fairy road, the difficulty is not to mention And metaphor."

Having said this, Master Paused for a moment, and said: "Ning Zhifeng is also a man of great talent, the terrible thing is that his pursuit of the Dao has reached a point of paranoia! He is afraid that his life is limited and he will not be able to prove the Dao, so he simply Just using my own talent, I embarked on crooked ways and became a person who specializes in cultivating the soul, but this is not the kind of correct cultivation that accumulates merits and virtues, but the method of practicing exercises alone, cultivating spells alone, and completely giving up the power of a single powerful soul. **! I also gave up the Taoist heart that a Taoist should have. To put it bluntly, it is to start a thorough evil cultivation, and the ferryman has unwittingly become his accomplice in searching for various resources."

"If it's just like this, it's fine. If the foundation is not stable, the building will always collapse. He will also suffer from the bitter fruit and watch his life's practice turn into running water. Even if I am an accomplice, it is just that the ignorant is not guilty. Innocent." The ferryman interjected that sentence, and then continued: "But why is he willing to do this? So he tricked me into coming to the lake of ghosts because he knew that there was a soul of Kunlun suppressed here, and it should be Let’s say it is the soul power of Kunlun, this kind of power should not be possessed by human beings, so it was suppressed here, his last step is to fuse the soul of Kunlun.”

"The ferrymen were used in this way, together with Ning Zhifeng, they destroyed some of the outer formations, and even destroyed a small part of the heaven and earth formations, and then created this result..." Shizu added.

"Yeah, if it wasn't for destroying a small part of the heaven and earth formation, how could the yin energy here have leaked out? If it wasn't for destroying a part of the outer formation, how could the leaked yin energy have spread so far in the end? The formation was destroyed It's easy, but it's hard to repair.... Even if the Heaven and Earth Formation can repair itself, it will take time. During this time, it is enough for him to do so many things. Poor him who lied to me back then, there is one here that will threaten the entire China I tried my best to encourage me to come, but I didn't expect that the person next to me turned out to be that evil existence." The ferryman sighed.

This is probably the whole process of the matter. This is the real reason why the Lake of Ten Thousand Ghosts suddenly became turbulent. The formation was destroyed, and Ning Zhifeng succeeded in merging the soul of Kunlun.... Although what the ferryman said was very brief, even By omitting many processes of the year, we also heard a general idea.

"Then what is his purpose?" I couldn't help asking, since Ning Zhifeng, the soul of Kunlun, has been successfully fused, why does he do so many things?
