Chapter 30 The Way of Everyone’s Heart

"Tao is also a road. As the saying goes, there is a right way for the righteous, and a devil's way for the devil. The path you take determines the path you follow."

The man behind the screen suddenly smiled and said, "Chongxu Sect is indeed a relic of the ancient sect. Master Ziyang's words are sonorous and powerful, showing the authenticity of the Taoist sect."

"Then let me tell you something." Master Tingyin stepped forward and said slowly, "Human beings follow the earth, earth follows the sky, heaven follows the Tao, and Tao follows nature. Tao is the natural law of the movement of heaven and earth, that is, the law.

.”

The man's voice of praise came from behind the screen, "The Buddhist layman has lived in the South China Sea for a long time, listened to the Sanskrit sounds, and studied the heaven and the earth. He is indeed profound in mystical principles and has unique insights."

Feng Laixian laughed loudly and said, "Two Taoist brothers are so lofty and far-reaching. Feng Laixian is ashamed. I am afraid that your ears will be stained by the common views."

The layman who listened to the sound smiled and said, "I would like to hear the details."

Master Ziyang said with a straight face, "Excessive modesty is the true vulgarity."

Feng Laixian said slowly, "Destiny is called nature, and willfulness is called Tao. The way below is to do things according to one's own will, which is nothing but the desire to eat when hungry, the desire to drink when thirsty, the desire to wear clothes when cold, and the desire to sleep when tired. Although the world is vast, but

, the Tao is only within a square inch."

"Oh? Where is the square inch?" the man behind the screen asked.

Feng Laixian said happily, "Eating, drinking and having diarrhea are all right."

The man smiled leisurely and said, "Wuchen Island is far away from the mortal world. Feng Laixian does have an extraordinary heart."

Seeing that they had all finished speaking, Hu Buyi hurriedly said, "It's my turn." He coughed a few times and said, "Doctors are benevolent. My way is to give people confidence, encouragement and hope."

The man praised, "With benevolent heart and benevolent skills, Yaowang Valley has a good reputation." Then the man said again, "Young Master Peng, here we are."

Peng Zemu and Lu Lian'er looked at each other and smiled. Peng Zemu said affectionately, "My way is to grow old together with the one I love, love her, protect her, and give her a comfortable life."

Lu Lian'er looked happy, "My way is the same. Never leave, never give up, follow you to the end of the world."

The man sighed, "If you ask me what love is in this world, it will lead to life and death."

Everyone finished speaking one by one, and only Yu Tianqing was left, and everyone's eyes followed.

Tingyin layman said, "This girl, it's your turn."

A wry smile appeared on Yu Tianqing's lips. She still remembered that Daozu asked her the same question back then. She couldn't answer it back then, and she still can't answer it now.

Yu Tianqing said helplessly, "I don't know."

Everyone was surprised, and Hu Buyi asked curiously, "How could you not know? Didn't your school teach you?"

Master Ziyang asked, "How come what you just said was taught by your master?"

Hu Buyi said, "Of course not, that's my daily code of conduct."

"That's right, that's right." Tingyin layman said, "It's just what others say, but it's just superficial. This girl says she doesn't know, but she actually knows."

"Yes, yes." Feng Laixian smiled and nodded.

Yu Tianqing looked shy, "Disciple is ashamed to come to participate in the 'Tao Xing Tian Xia' competition, but I don't know why?"

A man's voice was heard from behind the screen, "Girl, you were in a difficult situation, fighting a hundred-year-old evil python, and risking your life to save countless people. I wonder what you were thinking at that time?"

When everyone heard what the man said, their expressions changed and they all looked at Yu Tianqing.

Yu Tianqing said, "To be honest, I didn't think much about it at the time. I just thought about finding an antidote for the sick people."

The man said, "Facing the infected villagers who lost their minds, you seemed to have lost your life to protect the son of the evil python. What were you thinking at that time?"

Yu Tianqing said, "In the face of indifference and selfishness, I want to use my sword to protect the remaining light of love and humanity."

"Isn't this the Tao?"

Yu Tianqing thought for a while and said, "I used to think it was, but now, I feel that Tao shouldn't just be like this."

"Oh?" the man said in surprise, "Girl, please tell me carefully."

Yu Tianqing said, "At the beginning of human beings, their nature is good. As the causes and conditions change, people will do evil, fall, and lose themselves. However, can we deny the goodness in his nature? Because of the epidemic, the villagers

They have lost their nature, but once they wake up, the goodness in their humanity will be restored."

Still remembering the day when the evil epidemic dissipated, the earth revived, and the villagers were filled with great joy and gratitude when they faced a new life, Yu Tianqing suddenly asked, "Whose life did my sword protect, and whose life did it kill?"

evil?"

One sentence explains the confusion among practitioners.

The question stumped all the travelers.

Everyone present was silent.

"That's why I said, I don't know what Tao is."

After a while, the man said, "If you know something, you know it. If you don't know it, you don't know it. That's knowing. The girl's frankness shows that she is honest and aboveboard, which is admirable."

Yu Tianqing sighed quietly, "Everyone has his own Tao in his heart, but I have never been able to decipher my Tao."

"The Tao has no end, and all the sages are differentiated by the inaction." The man said, "The girl is not unable to decipher the meaning of the Tao, but her wisdom is deep, and the meaning of the Tao that she can comprehend is probably beyond the reach of ordinary people."

Several seniors nodded in agreement.

The man said loudly, "The way in everyone's heart is different, and the path they take is also different. But is the way that everyone adheres to constant?"

Everyone looked at each other in shock, and then said in unison, "Natural will not change."

"Very good." The man said, "Then I hope that the river lanterns will be like your Taoist hearts, and they will never be extinguished."

Only then did everyone understand why the man put the test questions into the river lantern, because the Tao is like a lamp in the heart, lighting up the path everyone wants to take.

Everyone looked at the small river lanterns in their hands and smiled knowingly.

Yu Tianqing frowned and sighed, she was alone and had no light in her hand.

At this time, a child came out from behind the screen, holding a huge colorful lotus lantern in his hand.

"This colorful lotus lantern is given to you by the Master." The child's voice was clear and clear, making Yu Tianqing startled, and then he said happily, "Du Wenwen!?"

Du Wenwen secretly blinked at Yu Tianqing, and then said seriously, "In this literary test, this girl has great insight and a transcendent will. She is the best in the literary test."

At a young age, he pretended to be an old man, but he was so grand that no one present regarded him as a child.

However, some onlookers and those who had not yet answered the questions expressed dissatisfaction.

I heard Du Wenwen say loudly, "Master said, if someone can answer the question this girl just asked, he can be considered the winner. If he is still dissatisfied, he can compete again in the martial arts test in a few days.

"

Although everyone was still a little dissatisfied, they suppressed their emotions when they heard about the martial arts test and the competition. After all, the level of realm depends on the depth of Taoism. There is no need to take the literary test too seriously.

At this time, Du Wenwen said again, "Master also said that because of the girl's knowledge, she may be misled by people with little knowledge in the world, so she is specially allowed to enter the Prajna Pavilion to consult the holy words of the ancestors of the past generations and seek a breakthrough in Taoism."

Everyone was in an uproar. It was twenty years ago since the last time the Prajna Pavilion was opened. Some people who have only practiced cultivation in recent years may not even know what the Prajna Pavilion is. Everyone looked sideways for a moment, with envy appearing spontaneously.

On the high platform not far from the venue, two women also had scorching eyes. One of them was Snow Moon Fairy Bai Xueyao. Standing next to her was a tall woman in red clothes and red hair.

"Is she the one you want to deal with?" the woman in red said coldly.

Bai Xueyao said in a deep tone, "Don't underestimate her."

The woman in red sneered, "She is the first person to test my Nine Heavens Mysterious Thunder. How dare I underestimate her!"

Bai Xueyao's eyes were stern, and a trace of barely visible sternness flashed across her usually gentle face.
