Chapter 103 Observation
Feng Ru ignored Ji Liao's jokes, her heart was a little confused, happy and confused. She finally asked, "Is the truth rumored outside?"
Ji Liao smiled and said, "You want to ask if I have harmed your observer."
Feng Ru walked carefully to Ji Liao and nodded.
Ji Liao said: "I did hurt him."
Feng Ru felt empty for some reason. She had already regretted asking this, but she couldn't hate it. She should hate Ji Liao very much. She felt that she was very selfish and ugly.
"Then you go quickly." She finally spoke.
Ji Liao said: "When there is Lingxu Zhenren, I am still free to come and go, and the Wuzhuang Temple is no longer there. Are you afraid that I will burn your Wuzhuang Temple with fire? You don't have to worry, after all, I have done it long ago."
Feng Ru looked at his smiling face and felt the urge to slap him to death, but she didn't want to make too much noise. She said, "Then what do you want to do?"
Ji Liao said: "There are still some things to say to you."
Feng Ru said: "Then you say it."
She thought that no matter what Ji Liao said, she would regard him as an enemy in the future. As for tonight, it would be a dream.
But what Ji Liao said was still beyond her expectations and made her feel much more relaxed. Ji Liao told her the truth about the death of Ling Xu.
Feng Ru said: "You shouldn't have told me this secret, but from now on, if I reveal a word, I will teach me that I will never be able to turn over."
She made a vow very seriously, and at the same time she felt that she was not that far away from Ji Liao.
Ji Liao said: "Ling Xu Zhenren modified other people's memories not to help me cover up my soul. He just wanted to leave you hope, even if this hope was fake."
Feng Ru understood Ji Liao's meaning, even if it was fake hope, it was better than nothing. Because it was because of the hope of achieving the soul and transcending life and death that most of the Qi-refining men in Wuzhuang Temple could stay in Wanshou Mountain with peace of mind and less trouble.
What's more, True Man Ling Xu has indeed achieved the soul, which shows that the Qi refining method of their lineage can indeed achieve that step, thus becoming one of the sacred immortals and Buddhas.
If everyone knows that no matter what, it is impossible to cultivate the soul, and they will never be able to transcend life and death, and they are more likely to choose to leave Wanshou Mountain and do what they want to do. In short, a lot of disputes will arise.
Moreover, Wanshou Mountain may also decline, or change its nature and lose its previous peace and peace.
This is very consistent with the personality of the viewer. He is the husband who does not fight and has never been willing to get involved in too much trouble.
Suddenly she was shocked. If it were the past, she might not have thought of these things because she prefers to live smoothly. For her, immortality is definitely not the most important goal in life.
But now, she actually understood the viewer's thoughts with empathy.
Feng Ru raised her eyes and looked at Ji Liao and asked, "Why am I like this?"
She asked without thinking, as if she knew very well in her heart that Ji Liao must have known what she was thinking.
Ji Liao said: "Because in a sense, you are the continuation of the life of Lingxu Zhenren, and you are even closer than the descendants of blood."
Feng Ru said: "You mean that the things the Spectator gave me are part of his soul?"
Ji Liao shook his head and said, "Things are more complicated than this. In fact, I am staying by your side these days to figure out this issue. And I can tell you very responsibly that you are not as simple as absorbing the soul of Ling Xu, otherwise it would be considered a body-taking or reborn in you. To be precise, the original Ling Xu Zhenren has disappeared, but his life continues to you. This matter is very important to you and to me, it is also very important."
Feng Ru said: "I'm still confused."
Ji Liao said: "I have roughly understood your philosophy of cultivation and practice of life. In fact, this is also the key to Taoist practice. The path you are taking is definitely the authentic Xuanmen. If you follow this path, you will definitely achieve the soul, which is also the most correct path to the end of cultivation. Then what is the soul? If I had thought the soul was an enhanced version of the soul, but now I have changed this view. The soul is life, not an invisible soul. If the soul loses the support of the body, it will soon die, but the soul will not. The soul is both life and also transcends the law of life and death in a certain sense. I even admire the first senior who cultivated the soul. I don't know how he did it or how he thought of it."
He paused and said leisurely: "I thought this was absolutely not something that any creature could do, because it was equivalent to opening up a road out of thin air on the edge of a cliff with no road. You must know that life must have death and death are the law, and it is difficult for living creatures to violate it, because it can be said that it is a destined thing for all beings to be born. Of course, there are gods and demons born to be immortal, but that can only be an example, or the privileges given by the rules of the law of heaven. Its essence is the same as mountains, rivers, stars and earth that can exist for a long time. Just as the criminal law of a country emphasizes killing people to pay for their lives, but there are always some people who have privileges and are exceptions."
Feng Ru said: "Didn't it mean that the way of heaven is so selfless? Why are there such exceptions?"
Ji Liao said: "Because fairness is always relative, not absolute. If you want to discuss this topic, it will be a long and profound discussion, and you will not get any absolutely satisfactory answer. Let's continue with the topic just now. The way of the primordial spirit is by no means the product of the way of heaven itself. Because when I believe that the primordial spirit is also life, I know very well that this is an abnormal product. Its abnormality lies in the characteristics of the living beings in the world, but also transcends the laws of life and death. The most important thing is that even if you practice it as a primordial spirit, you must still exist in this world. The primordial spirit can transcend life and death, but cannot transcend the world. Even if you practice it as a primordial spirit, you still belong to the most common people. Do you understand that refining the primordial spirit is a provocation to the natural laws of heaven and earth, and it is extremely unfair to those living beings who follow birth, old age, sickness and death."
Feng Ru suddenly was a little shocked. She would never understand the meaning of the soul from this aspect. In her opinion, chasing immortality is clearly the instinct of living beings, and no one wants to die on their own.
She said, "So it is because of this reason that the way of the soul is cut off?"
Ji Liao said: "There is no rule out that there is a reason for this. What I mean is that the way of the soul was not found since the beginning of the universe. It was created by a certain predecessor since the beginning of the universe. Don't you understand the meaning of this matter?"
Feng Ru was stunned and then said, "This is directly contrary to the laws of nature. How can you do this?"
"When I understand this, the more I feel shocked in my heart, because the higher the practice, the more I can understand that the unchanging laws between heaven and earth will be the basis of all existence, and cannot be violated or resisted, otherwise it will be the basis of shaken one's own existence. Because those laws and laws are also the reason why we can survive in the world. If shaken these foundations, it is equivalent to denying our own existence. So I guess, the predecessor who created the Tao of the Yuanshen is likely..." Ji Liao hesitated for a while.
Feng Ru asked, "What is most likely?"
Ji Liao said: "It is a rule that can be changed, which is a rule that remains unchanged in our eyes. Maybe he can change it."
Feng Ru said: "To be honest, I have a little difficulty understanding, and if someone can do this, then what are we? We are not even ants, right?"
Ji Liao said: "Maybe the truth is not the case, but if this is the truth, then understanding the way of the soul will help us find the traces left by that existence."
He added another sentence in his mind, and perhaps parsed out the secrets in me. Because the soul is obviously not allowed to exist, but he has the soul in his body, which is actually a matter of contrary to the laws of nature.
When he first met Qiantang Jun, he guessed that Qiantang Jun also had a soul. In fact, when he left his body again, he realized that Qiantang Jun did not have a soul, but had characteristics that only some souls could have.
He is still unique, and the closest kind to him is the cat of Beiluo Master Sect, and perhaps when he reaches the Demon Realm, there may be other exceptions.
The Demon World always gave him a special feeling.
Feng Ru said: "The Master of the Insight has achieved the soul and died because of it. But he left something to me, so you want to see the secret of the soul from me? But don't you also have the soul? Why don't you look for it from yourself?"
Ji Liao said: "If I could do this, I would have done it long ago. The fact is that my understanding of myself is still very shallow, and you think I am the Holy Prince, but in fact I don't know what I am."
Feng Ru bit her lip and said, "I can help you, but I just hope you promise me something."
Ji Liao smiled and said, "I can't promise you anything, but I can try to consider your feelings when doing things that involve you."
Feng Ru said: "This is enough."
She asked again, "What are you going to do next?"
Ji Liao said: "My observation of you has just begun. As for the next step, you have to leave Wuzhuang Temple with me."
"Leave Wuzhuang Temple?" Feng Ru said.
Ji Liao said: "Do what you love to do, to be precise, what you used to do, I hope you do it."
Feng Ru pondered: "Do you think there is a part of the consciousness in my body that belongs to the subjective subject, so you want to inspire my past self to lead to the part that belongs to the subjective subject?"
Ji Liao said: "You are indeed much more spiritual and wise than in the past. That's what I plan to do."
Feng Ru said: "I won't let you down."
Ji Liao said: "Thank you."
After saying that, his figure disappeared under the moonlight.
