Cinderella: The Legend of Yunhua

It is also the grand scene of the ice lotus blooming once every ten years.

As early as a few months ago, Lian Que accidentally saw the tip of the lotus in the lotus pond, and excitedly begged Mo Yunhua to calculate the time. He deduced that the lotus would bloom around this night, and he had been looking forward to it.

Although Mo Yunhua once sent an ice lotus to Baguio, but the ice lotus is cold in nature, and the inner essence is easy to diverge when encountering temperature, so when Baguio accepted the ice lotus, he did not open it for Lian Que to watch. Fan, Lian Que has never seen Binglian's true face in Mount Lu.Now Zhishui Peak has become Lian Que's home, since he lives here often, he will naturally have many opportunities to see the most pure and pure flowers in the world, but this is the first time he has the opportunity to witness it with his own eyes, so he is naturally a little excited.

Ice lotus is extremely difficult to grow and can only survive in extremely cold water.Mo Yunhua took a lot of thought to plant this lotus. Every few decades, he would find some thousand-year-old ice from the outer sea of ​​the Northern Territory, and use spiritual energy to imprison it and bury it under the lotus pond, and nourish it through the ice. , the lotus can grow normally.Mo Yunhua loves this lotus very much. On weekdays, except for penance, he would stop by the lotus pond to meditate in the short time left.

After nightfall that day, both master and apprentice went out of their usual ways, they did not meditate in the stone room, but came to the lotus pond to wait for the flowers to bloom.

In the middle of the night, when the yin energy of the day was at its peak, the pool water finally started to move.I saw the cold air at the bottom of the pool rising up, the water in the pool was churning, and the air was suddenly cold and quickly condensed into many fine ice slags.Mo Yunhua saw the right timing, and with a flash of white light in his hand, he shot out a piece of real energy in eight directions and threw formation stones to form a spirit-gathering formation. Afterwards, it became cold rapidly and merged with the cold air at the bottom of the pond, turning the area around the lotus pond into an extremely cold place.After refining the deficiency and building the foundation, the cold and heat are already invincible, but at this moment it feels extremely cold.

The pointed and exposed flower buds in the pool are trying their best to absorb the gathered cold air as if they have been sensed at this moment.The cold air turned into a vortex and flowed into the lotus tip, one breath, two breaths... Lian Que held his mind, and heard a faint sound, the lotus tip broke free from the bondage, stretched and bloomed petal by petal, only a few breaths later, It is in full bloom.Looking closely at this flower, the temperament is lonely and cold, about the size of a silver plate, the petals are icy and flawless and close to transparent, like crystal diamonds, emitting a cool and icy glow under the cover of the moonlight, and gently swaying with the night wind, this artistic conception is as if Eternal existence, and if fleeting.

Lian Que's body and mind are captured by the beautiful temperament of Binglian, forgetting the coldness all over his body, he only feels that this flower is like Mo Yunhua's incarnation outside the body, as lonely and cold, as independent from the world.He was immersed in this short-lived beauty, and suddenly felt that the person beside him flew to the sky above the lotus pond, and picked all ten lotus flowers that were in full bloom and put them into a special jade box.

"Master?!" Lian Que yelled——Master admired this flower so much, why didn't he appreciate its beauty, but hurriedly picked it.

Mo Yunhua returned to the pool and said, "Lian'er, this flower has both wood energy and yin energy, which is good for you. Although it is not as good as Taiyin, but fortunately it is pure and free from any impurities. In the future, you can take one plant a month. Applying the aura in the flower to your body can help you lay a solid foundation."

Lian Que was heartbroken, he knew that Mo Yunhua loved this lotus very much, and he spent a lot of effort to cultivate it, but this time he had no time to watch it quietly, so he hurriedly picked it, just to help him lay a solid foundation, he never thought that Mo Yunhua would be here Such subtleties can also be considered for myself, warmly said, "Thank you, Master, for your love."

Mo Yunhua replied, "The flowering period is over, let's go back to the house."

On the way back to the house, Lian Que thought about what Mo Yunhua had done to him over the years, and his heart was filled with warmth. It was so rare for a cold person like Mo Yunhua to give him a lot of love alone.He couldn't help asking a question that had been lingering in his mind for a long time, "Master, why didn't you accept your senior sister as your apprentice that year? She clearly beat me in that competition..."

Mo Yunhua responded lightly, "She is a woman, and she lives alone in Zhishui Peak with her teacher, so it will inevitably cause some gossip."

Lian Que heard that his mood plummeted, and he asked, "Did Master accept me only because I am a man? I thought..."

Mo Yunhua looked back at his apprentice, seeing his ups and downs, frowned and said, "Lian'er, you have practiced for a long time, why are you so easy to be happy and sad? The most important thing in practice is to be disturbed by foreign objects. You still don't understand?"

"Master..." Lian Que looked at Mo Yunhua rather aggrieved, "I was happy before because I was grateful for Master's care for me for many years, but now I am sad because..."

"Isn't it just that you are attracted by foreign objects?"

Lian Que argued anxiously, "How can these be foreign objects? The master is a close relative in the hearts of the disciples, and he values ​​his life more than his own life. It is only natural for the master to be happy and sad."

Mo Yunhua said, "What about your closest relatives? Except for yourself, everything in this world is something outside of you. You don't have to pay too much attention to it, so as not to fall into obsession, understand?"

"The disciple doesn't understand."

Mo Yunhua said, "Lian'er, if you practice for a long time, what you get rid of is love, desire, and greed. Only by breaking through the distracting thoughts of the world can you walk on the road of forgetting love. If you can't break through these obsessions that form in your heart, you will be able to cultivate. It will stop. The fate of being a teacher and your master and apprentice is like everything in this world, it is formed naturally, you don't have to be too attached to it, and feel angry, so as not to delay your practice, understand?"

Lian Que wanted to argue again, but seeing Mo Yunhua's expression was a little cold, he didn't dare to speak, so he followed him silently to the stone room to meditate.

At dawn on the second day, Mo Yunhua woke up from the samadhi. Seeing that Lian Que was still looking sluggish, his tone was a little cold, "You still haven't realized it after a night?"

Lian Que was very depressed. He was in a state of confusion last night, and he didn't enter into a samadhi at all. He thought over and over again about what Mo Yunhua said, but he couldn't convince himself to treat this master-student relationship as something outside of him, and said, "Master, you both I said that everything should be done in accordance with nature, just from the heart, then in my heart, you are the closest relatives, because you are happy and you are sad, all come from my heart, so why not do it in accordance with it?"

Mo Yunhua scolded coldly, "You are taking things too seriously. Everything in the world is one, including flowers, plants, trees, the sun, the moon, mountains and rivers, and even teachers. Treat them equally, and the mind does not exist between the various phases, so that there will be no obsessions and entanglements. Only when you leave love and hatred can you reach the realm of tranquility and selflessness, and realize the true body of the Dao. Now you will see and share with the teacher The other difference is that you haven't penetrated the illusory appearance of all things, do you know that you are wrong?"

Lian Que became stubborn, and forced to ask, "Since the master said that all things in the world are equal, why did the master distinguish between men and women when recruiting disciples? Isn't gender included in all things?"

Mo Yunhua said in a deep voice, "Wuji Dao, what is proved is that there is no yin and yang, no exterior and interior, no exterior and interior, and gender is naturally included. It's just that this long road, for the teacher to ask himself, has not proved to be able to break through all external things. In the realm of common thoughts, I still care about the distinction of gender in my heart, but the realm of being a teacher is not enough!"

Lian Que didn't expect to know that his angry words attracted Mo Yunhua's self-examination. He felt very uncomfortable, and secretly condemned--Master has practiced precepts for more than 100 years, and what he pursues must be the realm of not being disturbed by external objects. Such pressing questions obviously violated the duty of being a disciple... muttered, "Disciple realizes his mistake."

Seeing that he was obedient, Mo Yunhua calmed down and said, "You have come to Zhishui Peak to practice for a year, and you have grown a lot. It's just that the tempering of your mind can't be done in a day, so don't be too impatient. As a teacher There are still many incomprehensions on the way, so don’t be discouraged. As a teacher, I have observed that your spiritual consciousness has grown rapidly, and from today onwards, I will use my success power to help you cultivate your spiritual consciousness.”

"Thank you Master."

When the two came to the piano room, Lian Que thought that after such a long period of training, his spiritual consciousness was already much stronger, but he didn't realize how weak he was until Mo Yunhua ejected sound waves with all his strength.Mo Yunhua is gifted and quick-witted, with a high level of comprehension. He is almost the No. 1 among his comprehension peers in China. Although he is only in the early stage of Yuanying, his spiritual power is much deeper than that of the monks of the same period. Even if it is successful, how can ordinary people compare to it?

Lian Que was far from his level of cultivation, so he couldn't bear such an attack, and Yuanshen, who had just been able to withstand the semi-successful attack, reacted even more violently than when he was attacked for the first time.A trace of blood mist rose from the sea of ​​consciousness, and the spiritual consciousness was inevitable under such a powerful sound wave. After enduring it for an hour, it withered in the sea of ​​consciousness and lost consciousness.

The author has something to say: This is the first debate between Lian Que and Mo Yunhua about "foreign objects". The debate is also caused by their different personalities. One is natural and the other is cold and aloof. There are bound to be many debates on the Internet, and I said in the copy, "Three thousand ways, each proves its own body"

I think the law of heaven is there, and it will not change. Every person who seeks the Tao is like a mirror, and their hearts will reflect the law of the Tao. Different understandings, different moods, and different temperaments reflect the laws of the Tao. Will be different, there will be high and low, the difference between depth and depth

I tried to express everyone's views on Tao in the article

Because Tao is not one-sided, everyone can have their own understanding...

In fact, at this point, I’m talking about the original intention of my own writing. I love reading Xiuxian novels, but I’m very opposed to the so-called killing and decisive people. It's a process of self-cultivation and introspection. It can't just be people who fight monsters to seize treasures, kill people and steal goods.

Therefore, I want to write a relatively quiet world in my own story, maybe a little more flat, hehe, I make excuses for myself~~~~~~ I’m too talkative, and the number of words in this chapter is less Point, so I pretend to be the number of words here, ashamed, everyone should offer me a flower, thank you and welcome everyone to communicate with me, Yingzi, I will adopt your suggestion, thank you~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ Let me tell you in a low voice, the fact that the front is so smooth is to pave the way for the relationship between Mo Mo and Xiao Que, er, er, there are a lot of foreshadowing in it...
