What else could he think of …
Bathed in the morning light, Li Changshou rode a cloud and slowly drifted toward the mountain gate of the Duxian Gate.
Today was a beautiful day, with birds chirping and flowers blooming. It was indeed a good day to return to the mountain …
On the second day after entering the 'reasonable period of returning to the mountain', he eagerly flew back.
It was too dangerous outside.
It was better to bask in the protection of the light of Ren School to make him feel more at ease …
He took out his jade token to go out and arrived at the mountain gate. Li Changshou bowed to the immortal guarding the immortal gate and said,
"Disciple of Xiao Qiong Mount, Li Changshou, has returned to the mortal world today."
With a smile, the immortal took the jade token from Li Changshou's hand and asked, "Did you gain anything from this trip?"
Li Changshou replied, "Actually, I didn't gain much. I just felt that I had one less worry in my heart. From now on, I can wholeheartedly pursue the path of immortality."
"Alright." The immortal smiled and waved his hand. "Go back to the mountain and cultivate well."
"Yes, I still have to report to the Bai Fan Hall."
Li Changshou bowed again. He controlled the cloud at a suitable height and headed towards the Hundred Mortal Hall of the Heaven-Breaking Peak.
The Immortal guarding the gate nodded with a smile. He felt that this was a pretty good youngster.
When he arrived at the Hundred Mortal Hall, he found the elder who was on duty that day and finally put an end to his journey back home.
In this way, the tribulation outside had come to an end.
Perfect … my ass …
Li Changshou secretly pinched his fingers to calculate, and couldn't help but let out a soft groan in his heart.
One hundred and thirty-two. In one night, two more villages started to worship the Sea God …
He clearly didn't do anything.
Sighing in his heart, Li Changshou asked the elder on duty in the Hundred Mortal Hall, "Disciple, can I go pay my respects to the ancestor statue in the hall?"
"Of course," said the elder with a smile. "The founder's portrait is hung there for the disciples to worship. Just go.
Our Duxian Gate is part of the Ren School. Although you disciples have to follow many rules, you are actually pursuing freedom. You just have to be respectful and not offend the Ancestral Master. "
"Thank you, Elder. I understand."
Li Changshou answered with a solemn expression. He then carefully tidied up his robe and inner shirt, walked to the round platform in the middle of the hall, and looked up at the portrait above.
In the painting, there was an old Daoist with a blurry face. He was sitting on a green ox, and there was a treasure light shining behind him.
That was the portrait that had been recorded when the Grand Pure One appeared.
The reason why the face was blurred was because no one dared to draw the Sage's true face. If they drew it, the Sage would know and might punish them.
At that moment, Li Changshou cupped his hands and slowly bowed. Then, he took two steps forward, offered incense and offerings. He took three steps back, lifted the hem of his Daoist robe, and knelt on the meditation cushion.
Two executives and an elder of the Duxian Gate happened to see that scene and nodded slightly.
It was rare to see a disciple like that who would come to pay respects to the Ancestral Master on normal days.
A moment later …
"Why is this disciple still kneeling there?"
"His heart is sincere. He should want the Ancestral Master's protection and peace on the path to immortality."
After a while, more than ten elders and stewards walked out of the "cubicles" in the hall and looked over curiously.
"Could it be that this disciple has encountered some difficulties?"
"We have eaten a lot of this disciple's spiritual fish. Should we go and ask him and help?"
"Sigh, if he doesn't take the initiative to ask for help, we can't ask too much. Who doesn't have troubles?"
An hour later …
"Everyone, go back. Don't look anymore.
This disciple has just returned from the mortal world. His mental state should be unstable and he wants to use this opportunity to calm his mental state. "
The surrounding people gradually dispersed.
A few elders thought to themselves. Later, when Li Changshou comes to collect his monthly allowance and ask about his cultivation, they would secretly give him some benefits …
This disciple should have encountered some difficulties. However, the Ancestral Master is "that" person. Why would he care about such a small matter?
Finally, Li Changshou paid his respects for two hours. He slowly stood up and felt much more at ease.
If he wanted to fight against the Saints, he had to cozy up to the other Saints!
That was the only way he could think of.
Even if he received some attention from the sect because of that, he had to come there to pay his respects to the Hierarch of Ren School. He wanted to make his presence felt in front of the Hierarch.
The sect rules forbade him from hanging the portrait of the Ancestral Master to pay his respects. The portrait of the Ancestral Master that he could find was here.
After leaving the Hundred Mortal Hall, Li Changshou rode a cloud and headed towards the Xiao Qiong Mount.
Actually, on second thought, he realized that he might have been overthinking.
How could a Saint really lower himself to deal with an insignificant immortal from Ren School?
After becoming a Saint, the Great Tribulation would not be destroyed. He had to fight for his pride and the luck of the sect.
However, what if?
The word 'Saint' was added in front of the word 'human'. Didn't that mean that there was still 'humanity'?
Of course, the Saints were not humans who were born in ancient times. The Three Hierarch of the Dao Sect was formed from the essence soul of the Great God Pangu. The other three were all Connate lifeforms. Their origins were unknown.
If the two big shots of the Western Sect suddenly got carried away for some reason and really wanted to lower themselves to the level of a small shrimp like him …
[Heh, a kid like you dares to cause trouble?]
The corners of Li Changshou's mouth twitched.
It seemed that he needed to set up some array formations to conceal the heavenly secrets in the Composite Array of the Xiao Qiong Mount!
However, even the Sect Leader of the Duxian Gate might not have the array formation diagram of such an array formation, let alone the precious materials needed to set it up …
The world was difficult.
As he pondered, Li Changshou had already floated above the Xiao Qiong Mount. He looked down and saw Ling'e meditating under the tree.
Actually, it's also a matter of probability. Cultivate in peace.
Li Changshou breathed for a while and adjusted his state before slowly landing on the isolation array below.
Soon, Ling'e, who was under the tree, cheered and ran up.
However, Li Changshou gestured for her to keep quiet and gestured for her to stand obediently. Then, he walked to the front of his master's straw hut and bowed to it. He said that he had returned after settling his ties with the mortal world.
A few laughs came from the house. Qiyuan Laodao encouraged Li Changshou and continued to go into seclusion. He activated the array formations outside the house again.
His master was at a critical moment of comprehending the Inaction Sutra.
He scanned with his immortal senses and imprinted the scenery of the Xiao Qiong Mount in his heart. Li Changshou's uneasiness faded …
No matter what, cultivation still had to be cultivated, and life had to be lived.
Although he had previously thought of going to the South Ocean and shattering his statue, he had never thought of going to the South Ocean.
However, when he thought about how his appearance could easily cause more unknown events, he decided to let it develop …
"Senior Brother!"
Lan Ling'e blinked her bright eyes and raised her hands by her side. She fluttered a few times like a fledgling. "Huh?"
Li Changshou's expression turned serious. "Come in with me."
Lan Ling 'e shuddered and immediately put on a bitter expression. She lowered her head and followed her senior brother into her straw hut, feeling wronged.
She moved the meditation cushion, put her legs together, knelt down, lowered her head, and put on an expression …
She was still very familiar with the process.
Li Changshou sat on the round chair and activated the array formations around the straw hut.
Looking at the junior sister in front of him who had already locked her face and figure, he sighed softly.
"I've only been out for three years. You!"
Little Ling 'e instantly closed her eyes and raised her hand to grab her earlobe. She quickly shouted,
She hurriedly shouted, "Senior Brother, I know I was wrong!
I'm the reason for the battle between Senior Brother Liu Sizhe and Senior Brother Wang Qi!
I didn't expect this to happen. I just came up with a random idea that day. I really just wanted to send them away. In the end, I didn't think it through properly and caused the matter to blow up! "
"Huh?" Li Changshou was stunned. "I'm asking you … about one-third of the spiritual fish in the lake …"
Lan Ling'e was stunned. Then, her body bent and she sat there paralyzed.
It's over. I've confessed everything.
…
More than a year ago, after Liu Yan 'er left with her two junior brothers, something happened the next day.
Liu Yan 'er informed Wang Qi and reported it to her master and the Peak Master in advance. Then, she used a scheme to tell Liu Sizhe that she was pregnant. She originally wanted Liu Sizhe to stop pestering her, but she did not expect Liu Sizhe to fight with Wang Qi.
Neither of them were seriously injured in that fight. They were evenly matched, but they were punished by the sect rules because of a private fight between disciples.
Liu Sizhe was punished to reflect on his mistakes in seclusion for twenty years and was not allowed to step out of Du Lin Peak.
Wang Qi was also punished to stop his monthly allowance for three years. Then, he became Dao companions with Liu Yan 'er and cultivated in the Little Spirit Peak …
"Senior Brother … I was wrong …"
"What's wrong?"
"I shouldn't … I shouldn't have … thought about their reactions and directly gave Senior Sister Yan 'er this bad idea." Lan Ling'e lowered her head and replied, "In the end, all three of them were punished by the sect rules."
Li Changshou pursed his lips and scolded, "I've taught you for so many years, but you really used a few years to spit out everything I taught you.
Forget it!
Your personality has always been like this. I shouldn't have had such high expectations of you. Sigh, forget it. "
"Don't, don't! Senior Brother, just ask me! "
Lan Ling'e immediately panicked. "I won't get into trouble anymore!
Don't give up on me, Senior Brother!
I'll cultivate quietly by your side in the future. I won't say a word to strangers! "
"Then, tell me again. What did you do wrong?"
Lan Ling'e's eyes turned red. She was at a loss. "I … I …"
"You shouldn't have meddled in other people's business!"
Li Changshou poked the table with his finger and sighed. "Do you know whether Liu Yan 'er's destined marriage will be with Liu Sizhe or Wang Ji?
One has had a crush on her for a hundred years, while the other has only known her for a few years. Why did she hesitate? Why couldn't she be cruel to Liu Sizhe? It's because she had doubts in her heart.
Liu Yan 'er is already 150 or 160 years old. Can she not think of any other way?
It's not that she can't, but that she doesn't want to!
What you did was equivalent to directly cutting off a person's path, making her undecided marriage become a fixed one.
It's fine if you follow other people's fates, but if you change other people's fates, you'll bear the karma of three people with one sentence.
How much luck will you lose!
Don't always think that you're the smartest and have the most ideas. No one is much more stupid than others. Only people like to think that they're smart!
This is the best portrayal of your unstable temperament. "
Lan Ling'e pursed her lips and said in a trembling voice, "Senior Brother, what should I do to remedy it?"
"The more you do, the more mistakes you make. Later, go and apologize to Senior Sister Liu Yan 'er and ask for her forgiveness." Li Changshou leaned on the round chair and rubbed his eyebrows. "It seems that you still don't understand.
Let me give you the simplest example.
If Senior Sister Liu Yan 'er and Junior Brother Wang Ji fall out in the future, who will she blame first? "
Ling'e frowned and said in a low voice, "It's me, the one who gave her the idea to reject another person … an outsider."
Li Changshou smiled bitterly and said, "So, why should I interfere in other people's private affairs?
Who can explain the word 'love' since ancient times?
It's not a necessity for cultivation and longevity. You think about it the most every day. In the long run, it will only waste your aptitude and comprehension.
After you apologize to Senior Sister Yan 'er, you should reflect on yourself on the peak. You should come out of seclusion when Liu Sizhe comes out. "
Li Changshou stood up and said, "I won't punish you this time. Take a stone tablet and copy the Steadiness Sutra 300 times.
When you really understand what you did wrong, you can go and apologize to Liu Yan 'er. "
After saying that, Li Changshou's face darkened. He put his hands behind his back and was about to leave.
However, Ling'e shouted again, "Senior Brother, there's one more thing."
Li Changshou could not help but walk back. He raised his hand and pressed Ling'e's head. He rubbed it a few times with a face full of disappointment. He rubbed her carefully combed hair …
"How much more trouble did you cause? Can you tell me all at once?
I, your Senior Brother, am easily frightened by you! "
"I didn't cause trouble. This is an unexpected gain. I only caused trouble just now. Really …"
Ling'e said softly, "It's about Master's injury back then. Because of Senior Sister Yan 'er's matter, I heard a rumor …
Senior Brother, come closer. "
Mumbling, and so on and so forth.
Li Changshou leaned over and listened for a while. Then, he frowned slightly, but he quickly returned to normal.
"Don't bother about this matter. Go and copy the Steadiness Sutra first. Apologize and come to the Pill Chamber to find me."
"Oh," Ling'e replied and watched her senior brother float in the direction of the Pill Chamber.
It's over. Senior Brother's good impression of me has regressed by at least ten years …
Then, she sighed softly and carried the meditation cushion to the willow tree.
She took out a stone slab and a Dharma artifact carving knife. She wiped the tears at the corner of her eyes with the back of her hand and lay there with her hair disheveled. She wrote a certain sutra that her senior brother had written more than ten years ago.
After writing it once, she wiped her tears again and erased the engravings on the stone slab. She continued to write it a second time.
The willow branches hung down and caressed her black hair that was fluttering in the wind, as if they were supervising her homework.
…
"Steadiness Sutra"
The Primordial World was unknown.
"Life and death, don't be idle. Immortals are already established, and it is difficult for them to compete.
"When you encounter injustice, think about self-reliance. When you encounter difficulties, you need to reflect on yourself.
"If you have many friends, you can't hide. If you have few friends, you can avoid unexpected disasters.
"If you have no enemies, you will definitely be in danger. If you attack first, you will be reduced to ashes.
"Don't control yourself, don't be afraid. Everything is stable and peaceful.
"When you cultivate a wrong path, you will advance when you retreat. When you obtain opportunities, you will plan and decide.
"In the past, I was a good person. In the end, I was plotted against. How tragic.
"I had demonic energy and many schemes. I was knocked unconscious and thrown into the iron pot.
"The old turbid race was cautious and weak. Their strength was heaven-defying, but there was nothing they could do.
"The former ancient race was indignant and fought for luck forcefully. In the end, they were lonely.
"After the two heroes split the world, they were provoked and both of them were defeated.
"When the new generation rises, they praise rites and music. They obtain sages and many wise people.
"As for me, I avoid bad luck. The path to immortality is complete and I obtain the Dao Fruit.
"When I am steady, I reject karma. When I am not strong, I am happy.
To avoid natural disasters, one must change. To avoid man-made disasters, one must not leave behind a scapegoat.
"When I hear the Dao in the morning, I understand the path to immortality. The Steadiness Sutra is beside me.
