Chapter 164: The Great Rank Heavenly Immortal Decision
"Then dare to ask, how to find this Bodhi Patriarch?"
"You, just follow this mountain road all the way in."
After listening to the woodcutter's guidance, Yang Cong nodded slightly, there should be nothing wrong.
The woodcutter carried dry firewood on his back and walked down the mountain, while Yang Cong followed the mountain road to the mountain.
After walking for a long time, Yang Cong climbed the steps and finally arrived at the destination of his trip.
On both sides of the gate, from left to right, it is written, "Lingtai Fangcun Mountain, Leaning Moon Three Star Cave".
And the horizontal batch is the "Immortal Residence Outside the Sky".
Hearing the sound, the originally closed door, but at this moment, there was a voice, obviously someone was opening the door.
And Yang Cong hurriedly stepped forward.
After a while, the door was opened, and a Taoist boy walked out.
Dao Tong saw Yang Cong standing outside the door at a glance, and before Yang Cong could speak, Dao Tong had already spoken first: "You are the person who seeks the Tao as my master said." ”
"Exactly, Yang Cong came to visit the ancestor on purpose."
"Okay, then you can go in with me to meet the ancestor."
Following the Taoist boy into the immortal residence, Yang Cong felt the difference in this dojo, where the spiritual energy is abundant, which is very suitable for people to cultivate here, and the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and there are also many benefits for enlightenment.
Entering the dojo, under the guidance of the Taoist boy, Yang Cong saw the first time he saw the Bodhi Patriarch.
It's just that the Bodhi Patriarch is sitting under the straw futon with his eyes slightly closed, and the monks in Taoist clothes on both sides are sitting there.
However, they were not as calm as Patriarch Bodhi, they were whispering to each other, all of them were talking about Yang Cong.
"Who's next, what are you doing here?"
Patriarch Bodhi opened his eyes, looked at Yang Cong, and quietly leaned on his arm with one hand.
"I'm here to see the patriarch and ask the teacher."
"Who are you?"
"The disciple is a person from the Huaguo Mountain Water Curtain Cave."
Yang Cong answered directly and truthfully, without the slightest intention of deception, because he knew that this Bodhi Patriarch sitting in front of him had long known everything about him.
In fact, people who cultivate immortals are the easiest to see through the heavens, fortune telling, which is what every immortal cultivator knows.
However, something unexpected happened to Yang Cong, Bodhi Patriarch looked at Yang Cong, and suddenly shouted: "Nonsense, drive him out for me." ”
"Get out, get out."
The Taoist priests on both sides waved their sleeves.
Seeing this, Yang Cong was also stunned, and he didn't understand what Patriarch Bodhi meant for a moment.
"The disciple didn't know why he angered the patriarch, the disciple came here from that Huaguo Mountain, just to find the Taoism."
Patriarch Bodhi glanced at Yang Cong and said lightly: "Huaguo Mountain is far from the vast sea, how did you get here." ”
Hearing this, Yang Cong was relieved, it turned out that the problem was here.
"The disciple took a wooden boat to drift on the sea, and it took a lot of hard work to find this place, and I asked the master's subordinates to join me."
Since Yang Cong has already chosen to come to this Bodhi Patriarch to learn the Tao, then Yang Cong will not think about anything else.
In fact, throughout the entire Journey to the West, only this Bodhi Patriarch is really good to Sun Wukong.
It's a pity that Sun Wukong is ignorant and ends up like that.
Even if it is the Bodhi Patriarch, he is helpless.
"What's your last name and what's your name?"
"The disciple's surname is Yang Mingcong."
Yang Cong looked at Patriarch Bodhi, if he wants to say this name, it is estimated that no one knows why he is called this name.
And he is not willing to let the Bodhi Patriarch name him, what Sun Wukong to choose, it is purely to find sin.
"Hmm."
Patriarch Bodhi nodded slightly, did not raise any questions, but continued: "You practice with me, the name is one, the Dharma number is two, you have not stepped into the path of cultivation before, you can't be called, if you worship me as a teacher, there are a total of twelve characters in my door, ranking to you, counting the tenth enlightenment generation, as for what Dharma name to take, you can decide yourself." ”
Hearing this, Yang Cong fell silent, and after thinking for a while, he said to Patriarch Bodhi: "Yang Cong chose the Dharma name as Wutian. ”
"Bold!"
The Taoist boy beside Patriarch Bodhi suddenly shouted.
Yang Cong looked at the Dao boy with some confusion.
"Since the patriarch founded the dojo, no one has ever dared to say this, do you say you are bold or not."
Dao Tong obviously has an opinion about Yang Cong's thinking name.
After hearing this, the Bodhi Patriarch on the side was also silent for a while, and then raised the dust: "Throughout the ages, no one dares to talk about the word Wutian, do you know what it means?" ”
"The disciple knows."
Yang Cong nodded.
"Listen to it."
"The disciple wants to understand the secrets of heaven and earth, and break through this restrained world, so that my life can be determined by me, not by heaven, and by the word "heaven."
Yang Cong looked at Patriarch Bodhi, this sentence was his sincere words, and there was no intention of making it up.
"It's up to me to take my life."
Hearing this, Patriarch Bodhi laughed, touched his immortal beard, looked at Yang Cong, and said: "Since you are my disciple from today onwards, I really want to see where you will come in the future, and my life is up to me." ”
Patriarch Bodhi officially accepted Yang Cong as an apprentice, which did not surprise Yang Cong.
Patriarch Bodhi opened a dojo to teach humanitarianism, and Yang Cong naturally would not be excluded.
At this point, Yang Cong began his journey of learning the Tao with Patriarch Bodhi.
And then what shocked Yang Cong was that Patriarch Bodhi not only knew Taoism, but also Buddhism, and Confucianism.
The things he taught were all things that Yang Cong had never heard of or seen.
In fact, when I was a child, when I watched Journey to the West, I always envied the people in it who could fly away and live forever, and wave their hands to destroy the world.
But who knows, compared to cultivating immortals, those cultivation of Dou Qi, Sword Qi, and so on are all pediatrics.
This is the truth that Yang Cong realized.
It is difficult to cultivate immortals, and it is difficult to go to the sky.
If you set foot in the blue sky, then it means that your path to cultivating immortals has been successful.
At the beginning, Yang Cong had been listening to the recitation of the Buddha by the Bodhi Patriarch.
At first, it may seem a little interesting, but slowly, Yang Cong is too lazy to listen.
He began to study the exercises taught by the Bodhi ancestor wholeheartedly.
"The Great Product of Heavenly Immortals"
I have to say that cultivating immortals and cultivating the Tao is healthy and strong with ordinary spirits.
Yang Cong also gained some other enlightenment.
With the change of time, it may be because Yang Cong was born from heaven and earth, and Yang Cong's strength has increased by leaps and bounds.
In a short period of time, he has surpassed his senior brothers.
Among them, Yang Cong's physique is one of them, and Yang Cong has already cultivated and has a very rich knowledge of cultivation experience.
As the saying goes, there are three thousand avenues, and different paths lead to the same end.
But this study and cultivation day after day, listening to Zen and meditating every day, I don't know if the monkey in Yang Cong's blood broke out or what, anyway, he couldn't stay a little anymore.
