In the distance is an endless blue sky, and white clouds linger among the green hills.
Nearby, there is a wide coat with big sleeves that swings in the wind, a white crane with a little red on his head, and an old man with a fairy wind sitting on the crane's back.
The old man looked calm, gently held the dust in his left arm, and looked back at the squatters standing on the ground with a smile.
And the onlookers on the ground, there are those who are happy, those who are surprised, and those who are jealous.
This is the plot of many Chinese classical ** masters who soar in the day and become immortals.
In the traditional impression, most of the people who have become immortals have shown amazing wisdom since they were children.
When other children are still peeing and mixing mud at the entrance of the village, these people usually do the opposite, listen carefully in class, and study hard to practice calligraphy. I can't extricate myself from burying my head in various religious texts.
When they grow up, they tend to be immersed in various religious texts.
When the next symptom comes, they will hide in a cave or live alone in the wilderness, and they will forget about fame, fortune, men and women, family, and even daily diet, and never care about it again.
Xie Tiantian, known as the first female Taoist priest of "Flying in the Day", began to open the valley at the age of 14, and lived on cypress leaves and clear water all day long, and after a few years, she gradually got better, and even did not need to drink water, and finally succeeded in ascending at the age of 29.
It is not difficult to see that in the ancient people's cognition of becoming immortals, "she" is a very key word.
Giving up the seven emotions and six desires of mortals, giving up the firewood, rice, oil and salt in the world, and finally giving up the flesh and the mortal womb to fly to the sky, the word "sacrifice" must be said to be the top priority on the road to becoming an immortal.
Another key word is "giving", which is equally important to help the suffering of the world and to comfort sentient beings to do good.
Friends who are interested in becoming immortals must keep these two words in mind, and they have done it, becoming immortals has twice the result with half the effort, and there is no need to worry if you can't do it.
In addition to the words "she" and "shi" with "active" attributes, Pu Songling, a native of the Qing Dynasty, added a new keyword to the road to becoming an immortal - the word "force" full of "passive" attributes.
In other words, outside the circle of those who take the initiative to become immortals, there is another category of people who are forced to leave the mortal world and have to become immortals with all their hearts.
Before I was imprisoned, I should have been the kind of rich idler who was jealous and hated, relying on the family property left by my ancestors, I had nothing to do all day but never worried about eating and drinking.
The huge ancestral business was originally bound to take care of it, but fortunately, I had two helpers.
My younger brother was born honest and loyal, and I usually leave it to him to deal with the outside world, and as for the family, my wife is virtuous and capable, and she takes care of everything in an orderly manner.
Thanks to the two of them, in those years, I was carefree and carefree, and I was able to immerse myself in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, chanting poems and poems, and hearing little about things outside the window.
So, when did things start to change?
I think it was after my wife died.
When his wife gave birth to her son, she fell seriously ill and died not long after.
At that time, I had not yet seen through the mortal dust, and under the continuous attack of **, loneliness, and laziness, I finally relented and admitted defeat and married my second wife.
The so-called "sowing good causes and reaping good results", that kind of evil cause is naturally the evil effect, and now that I think back to the source, this second wife is probably the evil seed I planted for myself.
The germination of the evil seed was at a family feast, and I still remember it clearly.
I have a classmate and confidant friend for many years named Xiaocheng.
Xiaocheng's family is poor, and I always find some reasons to avoid embarrassment to help him during the New Year's holidays, such as children's birthdays or the start of school, my younger siblings are sick and hospitalized, and God knows how much hair I lost for these reasons.
It is necessary to know that "Shengmien, fighting Mi Hatred", helping others without hurting others or harming oneself is really a very profound knowledge.
Xiao Cheng was also there at the family banquet that day.
Just as I was introducing Xiaocheng and his new wife to their first meeting, the next person panicked and reported bad news.
The subordinates said that the cattle of the Huang family trampled on my family's field, and the subordinates of the two families first sent warm and cordial greetings to the female family members of the other party, and then launched a large-scale on-site recognition activity on the edge of the countryside and fields.
In the midst of the hysterical shouts of "I am your father" and "grandson call again", some people seem to be determined to find out their true life experience, rush straight to their "fathers", dance their fists and vow to "fight their fathers and grandchildren" today.
The scene was in chaos.
The Huang family was very cunning, and secretly went back to ask for help, and the situation that was evenly matched turned down in an instant, and our people couldn't kill them, so they let the other party be tied up and taken to the government.
The county magistrate favored the Huang family indiscriminately, and now he has beaten our people half to death.
After listening to this, I was so angry that I felt like I was being strained by the family dog.
Because the Huang family was originally a slave of my family, in recent years, I don't know what kind of bird I have bumped into and I have become a nouveau riche.
I immediately issued a general mobilization order, asking the men between the ages of 8 and 80 in the family to assemble immediately and prepare to go to the Huang family to ask for an explanation.
Just when everyone was gearing up, Xiao Cheng pulled me aside and persuaded me to forget it.
According to Xiaocheng's opinion, the county official only beat my family and did not find trouble with the Huang family, it is estimated that the Huang family bribed the county official, and the two colluded together.
After thinking about it, I admitted that Xiaocheng was right, so I scattered all the people who had gathered.
However, "the more I think about it for a while, the more angry I get, and the more I think about it when I take a step, the more I lose", coupled with the fact that his family continued to fan the flames, after a few days, I thought about it and thought that I had to give the Huang family a little color.
It is indeed easy to be caught by the other party, so this time I decided to take the formal judicial route and directly sued the government with a complaint.
My thought is that, anyway, after all, it was the Huang family who was at fault first, and it was because his cow trampled on my family's land that caused a bunch of things to follow, and when the two sides fought and injured each other, why did the government only beat my people and not the Huang family?
As it turned out, I was ridiculously simplistic at the time.
The county magistrate only glanced at the situation, and then tore it to shreds in the court, insisting that I was doing nothing.
The dog that had been raised in the family climbed on the owner's head and pooped before it was calculated, and the dog official came to make a threat, and I was angry on the spot, and my mouth frantically began to spew a lot of trash at the county official.
The county magistrate's ability to scold me was obviously inferior to his ability to bend the law for personal gain, and he became angry for a while, and ordered the left and right officials to throw me into prison.
It's really funny to think about it now, I was really stupid at that time, and it was unfair to sue the government for not beating the Huang family but only my family, isn't it just saying that the county magistrate didn't judge the case correctly?
Go to the county yali to sue the county master, isn't it stupid?
It is a crime that the county officials should not be killed if they scold a few words, and besides, I still have a meritorious reputation, and they dare not torture me.
But the county officials and the Huang family just want me to die, as if only if I die, they can rest assured that they can continue to be corrupt and pervert the law and continue to run rampant in the township.
After some covert operations, I was wrongly accused of being a fellow pirate, and the county magistrate took the opportunity to remove my reputation and wanted to kill me on this charge.
Since I was imprisoned, my brother has been running around for me, but to little avail.
The younger brother has always been more than conservative, not enterprising, he can still cope with the step-by-step work, if he encounters the need for flexibility and agility, he is as easy as the old computer, and he can't react for a long time.
In a word, my brother is useless, so in the end, the only thing he can do is to deliver food to me.
To tell you the truth, I never imagined that things would turn out the way they are, nor did I expect that people's hearts would be so sinister.
In the final analysis, it's just because of the trivial matter of "the Huang family's cattle stepped on my field", I admit that the person who beat my family for nothing, and I have nothing to say when I scold the county officials for putting me in prison, but why do you have to put people to death so much?
I sat on a pile of damp rotten grass, staring at the old wooden cell door that I don't know how many souls had been closed, and how many innocent rusty iron ropes had been locked, and I couldn't figure it out.
In addition to my younger brother, Xiaocheng also came to see me in prison.
I was ashamed to face Xiaocheng, because I didn't listen to his advice, so I ended up with the appearance of dying now.
Xiao Cheng didn't come to laugh at me.
He said that if he wants to get out of prison alive, he must continue to file a lawsuit, go to the government to sue, go to the province to sue, and if he can't do it, go to Beijing to sue, and go to the emperor to sue the emperor.
That's true, but who can sue me for me?Don't say that my brother can't get out of the mess at home, but he has gotten out of a foreign country, and with my brother's ability, I can't even imagine that there can be any good results.
Xiao Cheng said that he was willing to redress my grievances.
If a friend is in trouble and can't be saved, what kind of friend can he be?!”
Those were the last words he said to me as he left that day.
After Xiaocheng left, I gritted my teeth in prison for a long time, and finally I was really tortured and was about to die, so I had to nod and admit my guilt.
Confessing guilt does not mean that you will die immediately, and if the county official wants to carry out the death penalty, it will need to be reviewed by the Beijing Criminal Department before it can be executed, and I know this.
Instead of dying in prison on the spot, it is better to find a way to live first.
One more day is the hope of one more day, and at that time I had no choice but to delay my time and believe in Xiaocheng.
It took about ten months, and my brother had been stopped outside for several days to bring me food, and just as I was about to starve to death, an order suddenly came from the Beijing Criminal Department to interrogate me.
When I heard the news of the arraignment, although I was half-dead and skinny, I instantly thought of Xiaocheng in my heart.
Later, I learned that it was indeed because Xiao Cheng stopped the royal car and shouted grievances to the emperor that there was an order from the Criminal Department to interrogate me.
Although the emperor paid great attention to my case, the subsequent reversal of the case was far from a great pleasure.
The jailer who did not let my brother bring me food was beaten to death on the spot by the criminal department, and the county official who tore off the paper was sentenced to exile.
But I don't care about that.
When I came home from prison, looking at those people and things that I was familiar with, as if in a lifetime, what I wanted to do most was to reunite with my family, that is, to thank Xiaocheng again.
At the reunion banquet, Xiao Cheng calmly talked about the process of his redress for me in the capital, and everyone, including me, was deeply moved.
It is enough to have a confidant in life.
At the end of the banquet, Xiao Cheng suddenly told me that he planned to live in seclusion in the mountains and wilderness from now on, avoiding the mundane world.
I was stunned on the spot, I don't know how he could talk about this.
Xiao Cheng looked at the distance and said: "I thought that the black and white rights and wrongs in the world are like heaven and earth, the sun and the moon, ten thousand years are not easy, even if there is a time of sand and dust, there is always light afterwards, my brother is gratifying to get the snow in the snow, but the culprit of the accident is still there, and the ** who helped the evil is not dead, and the order of the Son of Heaven has not been able to clean up the source of such disasters, which shows that the world is really turbid, and we and other small people can do nothing but avoid the wilderness and clean themselves?The elder brother has experienced gains and losses in life and death, and he must have realized it when he thinks of it, but I don't know what he thinks of the younger brother's words”
I was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say.
At that time, I had indeed just experienced the gains and losses of life and death, but somehow, I felt that I should enjoy life and cherish my family for the rest of my life.
Xiao Cheng saw that I was silent, and then invited me to live in seclusion with him.
I couldn't let go of what I had lost, so I had to smile and refuse.
Seeing my attitude like this, Xiao Cheng didn't force it, and looked at me silently for a while, and he got up to say goodbye.
I haven't seen him since.
I sent someone to look for him, but I never found him, and I think he must have gone to seclusion in the mountains somewhere.
When Xiao Cheng reappeared, it was probably a year since the last time he was separated, and that day he suddenly appeared in front of the gate dressed in a Taoist uniform, and at a glance he looked completely like a master of the world.
I excitedly took his hand and asked him where he had been all these years, and disappeared for no reason, even if he didn't say anything to me, at least he had to explain to his wife and children at home, he only smiled and didn't answer me directly.
At the banquet, Xiaocheng said some difficult words during the banquet, such as "abandon come" and "abandon go", etc., which make people half-understand and confused.
Seeing that Xiao Cheng was dressed as a Taoist priest, I thought that he must have entered a Taoist temple to practice, so I asked him where he was practicing now.
Qing Palace on Laoshan Mountain. ”
Hmmm!Great place!Great place!”
It's hard to know that I have reunited, and under my kindness, Xiao Cheng loosened his mouth and spent the night in the house.
That night, for some reason, I was in a state of flux, and I was always having strange dreams.
When I woke up from the dream, I found that I was not lying on my own bed, but sleeping on the bed arranged for Xiao Cheng, and Xiao Cheng, who was supposed to sleep on this bed, was nowhere to be seen.
I hurriedly called my subordinates and asked them to go to Xiaocheng immediately, three watches in the middle of the night, but I was afraid that he had an accident.
When the subordinates heard this, the leaders were stunned on the spot, like a wooden stake that had been hit on the ground, motionless.
Seeing that they were stunned and didn't go out to find someone, I was impatient and raised my voice again.
At this time, a few people in the back row actually laughed out loud.
Did Cheng Gongzi have a nightmare?Didn't you just sit upright?"A subordinate asked me cautiously.
What crazy things to talk about!I asked you to find Cheng Gongzi, but you asked about me?"I was about to stand up and get angry, and my eyes accidentally skimmed to the mirror next to me, and I was immediately stunned.
I in the mirror is not me, but Xiaocheng.
Xiaocheng is here, then, then I'm going to **?"I was asking people nervously and incredulously, and at the same time, I was asking myself.
This time, the people laughed.
Looking at the family members who were busy trying to find out my whereabouts, I thought about it in the guest room for several days, and finally I finally came to my senses.
I guess Xiao Cheng probably swapped me with him, he pushed my body, and I pushed his body. As for why he did this, and where did he go with my body?I don't have a clue.
But I seem to know that the answers to these questions can be found in **.
Laoshan Shangqing Palace.
Fortunately, my younger brother and other people in the house knew that Xiaocheng was my benefactor, so when I said that I planned to go back to the mountain as Xiaocheng, my brother did not embarrass me, and quickly prepared the servants and horses for the journey, and personally sent me out.
Seeing him hurrying home, I couldn't help but feel funny.
Searching for something that cannot be found is in front of you but does not know it, but gives it away, and there is no difference between the presence and absence of human eyes, and sometimes it seems that there is no difference.
It's hard for me to keep track of how long I've traveled and how many miles I've traveled.
Until the mountain road in Laoshan became more and more dangerous, and it became more and more inconvenient to ride a horse, I had to send a servant to lead the horse back first, and I continued to move on alone.
Perhaps because of the abandonment of these helps, it didn't take long for me to meet a Taoist boy on the side of the road.
And according to this Taoist boy, he is Xiaocheng's **, and he is waiting here to lead me up the mountain.
Above the main hall, I finally saw me again, to be precise, it should be Xiaocheng who was holding my body.
Xiao Cheng was not shocked when he saw me, but lightly instructed ** to prepare a banquet for me to pick up the wind and wash the dust.
It took a lot of effort to go up the mountain, but I didn't come for food and drink, so I was so anxious that I asked him to cast a spell to return my body to me quickly.
Xiaocheng said that he should not be impatient, and he would wait until he had eaten the wine first.
It's easy to stay up until the end of the banquet, Xiao Cheng asked me to sit side by side with him on the two **, after sitting down, Xiao Cheng next to him didn't move, didn't say a word, like a majestic statue on the main hall.
Seeing Xiaocheng like this, I didn't dare to continue to urge him, for fear that the urging would annoy him and mess things up.
Sitting like this until midnight, half-asleep and half-awake, I suddenly woke up a spirit, raised my eyes and looked at Xiaocheng beside me, and I found that he was no longer what I was.
I hurriedly found a mirror to take a look, the familiar beard, familiar eyes, ears, mouth and nose, at this moment, I was finally myself again.
On the third day of my stay at the temple, I couldn't bear to go down the mountain and go home.
Xiao Cheng saw that I had made up my mind, and it was difficult to keep me, so he said that he was willing to send me back to my hometown in person.
I said that the long road is long, the journey is difficult, you send me back to my hometown and have to make an extra trip back to the mountain in vain, I don't think your temple is rich, don't give you a financial travel reimbursement when the time comes.
Shaking his head slightly, Xiao Cheng said that I was too worried: "Please brother close his eyes a little, I have my own magic method." ”
I closed my eyes, and when I opened them again, I was ready to stop saluting.
Before I could react, I found that the way Xiao Cheng took me home was completely different from when I came.
That night, he and I were standing in front of our house.
Thinking of Xiao Cheng's spell of swapping bodies, the journey of a thousand miles turned into a moment seemed to suddenly become reasonable, not so unacceptable.
I didn't delve into these strange places, and I didn't want to delve into them, at this moment, I just wanted to meet with my brother, wife and other family members to talk about this magical experience of exchanging bodies with Xiaocheng, and how long I missed them.
I didn't know that the door of the house was closed, and I called for a long time and no one opened the door.
An ominous premonition quickly crept through my mind, and in a trance I felt that something was wrong.
The guards have always been day and night, and there is no reason not to open the door, unless something happens in the house.
For a while, I was in a hurry, and I didn't know what to do.
Why not jump in and check it out. Xiao Cheng walked over and patted me on the shoulder.
I looked at him, and then I stumbled over to the wall and tried to jump.
Unexpectedly, his feet suddenly felt like riding the wind and stepping on the clouds, and the ground rose straight up for a few feet, and then his body was as light as a leaf and floated to the front of the bedroom.
The windows in the bedrooms are slightly bright.
I can't sleep for a long night, and I think my wife hasn't fallen asleep because she is worried about my safety.
I was just about to push the door in and wake up my wife, when I was interrupted by the sound of men and women talking in the room.
The female voice was obviously his wife, and I didn't know who the male voice was, but it was certainly not his brother.
I bent down and hid under the window, quietly piercing the window paper to observe.
My wife was drinking the same glass of wine with one of my subordinates, and their eyebrows were ambiguous, as if they were standard adulterers and adulteresses.
In a fit of rage, I wanted to rush in and arrest the two of them, but then I thought that if the two men and women did not admit it, I would be the only one to convince the public, and if I made a move on the spot, I would be left behind.
I immediately jumped back to the gate again and called Xiao Cheng as a helper.
Before returning to the bedroom, the splasher and the splasher were still unaware, and they were still intimate.
After Xiaocheng drew his sword and got ready, I found a big stone in the courtyard and slammed the door hard, trying to break in.
The two people in the room were shocked, and closed the door tightly, seeing that I couldn't open the door left and right, Xiaocheng used a sword to penetrate the crack of the door, and then a sword split the door latch, and the door immediately opened.
As soon as the door opened, I didn't expect the splasher to not dodge the recoil, and ran straight into me and Xiaocheng wanted to go out and run for their lives, but Rao is Xiaocheng was quick and fast, swung his sword and cut off one of his arms, and finally let him escape.
Entering the house and catching the splasher, I carefully tortured her in prison, and the splasher couldn't stand it, and confessed that I couldn't bear the loneliness in the year I was in prison and got together with the splasher.
I was in prison for almost 10 months, and nearly a year has passed since then, which means that I have been wearing a green hat for ten years and being a king for ten years.
With a sword that snatched Xiaocheng, I immediately cut off her head, and the mouth that kept popping out words that made me humiliated and angry finally stopped talking.
Angry, I went on to do something that was hard to describe.
By the time the venting was over, the surroundings were already in a mess, and the flesh and blood were scattered.
Looking at the hands that had just held the sword, I sat still, like rotting grass and dead wood.
Come back to the mountains with me. Xiao Cheng stood next to him and said.
How I got back to the mountain, and how I slept that day, I still don't remember.
I only remember waking up in the bed on the mountain, thinking about everything, returning to my hometown one day, the gate was not opened, jumping over the wall, and bumping into the adulterous ......Everything seems to be slowly getting blurry and irrational.
So I began to suspect that Xiao Cheng had cast a spell on me that night, and that he was lying to me.
In fact, I didn't kill anyone at all, and my wife didn't **.
I told him that I had a strange dream, and then told him about the events of that night, and thought about how he reacted.
It's a dream, but the elder brother thinks it's true, it's true, but the elder brother thinks it's a dream, ask the elder brother to look at this sword. After speaking, Xiao Cheng handed over the sword.
The sword was stained with blood, as if to tell me about the terrible things that had happened that night.
After all, I don't want to believe that I would do such a ** thing, it is not difficult to fake the blood stains on the sword, only based on this so-called "evidence", I still doubt Xiaocheng.
I went down the mountain again and returned home, and Xiao Cheng still went with me, but this time he went to wait for me elsewhere and let me go home alone.
I won't wait for you later, brother, you must remember. When they parted, Xiao Cheng said to me solemnly.
The gate is half-hidden, the courtyard is deserted, the roadside is overgrown with weeds, and the house is a desolate scene.
I found my brother and asked him what was going on at home.
The younger brother said while crying: "Since then, after you didn't say goodbye that night, a few days later Cheng Gongzi also said that he was going back to the mountains, I sent him away and continued to look for you everywhere, a few days ago a night, a robber broke into the house, not only killed my sister-in-law, but also hung her intestines on the tree or something, the next day I saw it, scared half to death, the government has not solved the case ...... now."”
After listening to this, my heart was cold, and at the same time, a sense of relief came spontaneously.
I remembered what Xiao Cheng said to wait for me.
I told my brother everything that happened, especially what happened that night, and he couldn't accept it for a long time.
After saying everything, I glanced at my son again after not seeing him for a long time, and after telling my younger brother to raise him well, I left a sentence of "don't have to look for me in the future", and resolutely turned around and left.
My brother chased me all the way after me, crying and begging me not to abandon them, but for some reason I felt very funny to see how pitiful he was.
* It's because I don't want to go back, but this world wants to force me to leave, the arrogant Huang family, the county official who bends the law, the wife of **, the unfaithful slave ......
Back then, Xiaocheng said things like "abandon come" and "abandon go" at the banquet, and only now do I have some understanding.
People have hurt me, I have hurt others, I have enjoyed blessings, I have suffered sin, I do not owe the world, the world does not owe me, since the two do not owe each other, how can there be any abandonment and not abandonment?
It's just a fork in the road, and each of them is separated.
Long pain is better than short pain, and if you are ruthless and completely leave this filthy world behind, who can say that this is not a great pleasure in life?
Thinking of this, I laughed out loud, my heart was full of joy, and my steps at the moment were getting faster and faster.
Now, at the agreed place earlier, I know that Xiaocheng must still be waiting for me.
According to the rewriting of Liao Zhai's "Becoming an Immortal", there are additions and decreases.
