Chapter 700: Birth, old age, sickness and death are a circle
"Well, I won't be unreasonable. When I return to Chang'an this time, I will ask Mingyue to come back. Now a few years have passed, and I should have grown a lot and I can come back along the way by myself."
"Thank you, Mr.
Yanzhi wiped the tears at the corners of her eyes, which was very happy. She quickly gave Lu Liangsheng a bow before he gave up. After talking casually, he talked a few things in the mountains, and cast a spell to wrap some pool of water on the mermaid, put it off the donkey's back, took the reins, and called out: "Go away!"
The pedaling hoof sound went to the opposite direction of the road at the foot of the mountain, crossed Xiaoquan Mountain, walked to the east, crossed several stretches of mountains, and arrived at the edge of the magic array of the Wanling Array. It was already two days later.
Wow~~
The gentle sea breeze rolled up the waves and pounced on the beach with a faint fishy smell. It was the first time that Hong Lian saw the vast sea. He screamed excitedly, "Ah!", floated out of the bookshelf, threw his embroidered shoes, and stepped on the soft and damp beach shallow water. After holding a few shells, the hem of the skirt was flying in laughter. The old donkey also jumped up and down behind, sticking out his tongue and rolled over a shell on the ground, grinding it into his mouth.
"Jiji~~~"
The mermaid with fish tails moved quickly away the sea water on the beach, stretched her hands and lay on her back into the sea water. Her long loose hair was still driven by the waves, her eyes widened, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, and smelling the smell of the sea water.
This is her home.
The waves pushed some white foam on the beach, leaving a shallow watermark. Lu Liangsheng faced the sea breeze, his pale hair shook, and he looked at Hong Lian with his hands in his arms. The old donkey ran, and the little mermaid churned and chirped up and down in the sea.
On the side of the steps that were moving, Taoist Toad was also watching this scene, "Liangsheng, can you tell me what he said in Xiaoquan Mountain now?"
Hearing this, the walking figure stopped. Among the white beards that were stroking in the wind, Lu Liangsheng pursed his lips at the end of the sky and the sea. He didn't know how to speak for a while. He thought about the words before he spoke.
"Master, I don't know how to tell you that it is not easy to master the Kongtong Seal, especially the body of a mortal. People who practice Taoism are also the body of a mortal in front of the artifact..."
"That's why there is birth, old age, sickness and death?"
"Birth, old age, sickness and death?" Lu Liangsheng was stunned for a moment, understood what his master was referring to, and nodded: "The Kongtong Seal was originally held by the Human Emperor. When the First Emperor went to sea to find it, not only for the right to enthrone the gods, but also for immortality. However, there are very few immortals, and even the gods in the sky are not immortal."
His voice was floating in the wind.
"............ After returning from the west, my disciples have been thinking. After returning to Qixia Mountain, I saw my hometown and recalled my past experiences. The people and things around me suddenly understood something."
Taoist Toad retracted his vision from afar, raised his toad face and looked at his apprentice: "What do you understand?"
"It's what Master just said, birth, old age, sickness and death."
The sea breeze blew the robe. After Lu Liangsheng said that, he fell silent. He looked at Hong Lian, who was holding a conch in front and shouting at him with a smile on his lips.
He continued to speak again: "Eternal life and immortality are not that easy. It is not that easy to eat a few natural treasures and get one thing. Immortality is contrary to the way of heaven. Only by experiencing birth, old age, sickness and death, and walking through this circle, can we understand what immortality is."
Taoist Toad thought about these words carefully and vaguely felt that it made sense.
"Who told you this? I don't believe you can think about it yourself."
Next to him, Lu Liangsheng opened his mouth silently and pointed to the sky: Heavenly Way.
"That thing can talk?"
"Why can't you? I've still talked a lot in Guixu."
The toad tilted his head and looked at the sky, hurriedly chasing the disciple behind: "Liangsheng, wait, what else did it say? Tell me about it quickly."
"...... Let the disciple think about it, and also say that after things are done in the future, I will let my body rush to the sky pavilion."
"Really? I don't believe it!"
"What does the master think it will say?"
"Where do you know if you are a teacher..."
One master and one disciple, one behind and one forward strolling the beach left a series of footprints of toads of all sizes.
