The starlight is sprinkled, and the stars are in the night sky, flashing and flashing, as if looking at the earth, Su Ming, who is sitting in the courtyard between the villages, is sitting in the courtyard, chopping firewood, his expression has always been very calm, and the chopped firewood is neatly placed next to it, which is obviously different from the messy old man cutting firewood before.

The old man's firewood was of different sizes, different thicknesses, and was full of sawdust all around after cutting, but here in Su Ming, after all the firewood was cut, there was almost no difference.

Even the sound of chopping wood is very regular, which is not the same as the old man, until midnight, after the door of the house behind Su Ming creaked, the old man wore a small jacket, walked out with his hands behind his back, stood beside Su Ming, and frowned after taking a look at the firewood that Su Ming had cut by the moonlight.

"It's not right for you to chop wood like that. ”

Su Ming put down the axe and looked up at the old man.

"What's wrong?" this was the first time Su Ming had spoken in this courtyard.

"It's not right anywhere, you're not chopping wood, you're chopping people. That's it, I can't sleep, you noisy old man, come on, I'll teach you how to chop wood. The old man said in a tone of lesson, stepped forward and touched Su Ming, and motioned for Su Ming to get up.

When Su Ming got up, the old man sat on the wooden pier, picked up the axe, took out the firewood, and with a bang, he stuck the axe on the firewood, knocked it several times in a row, and then clicked, and split the firewood into two halves of different sizes, and after dropping it on both sides at will, the old man looked up at Su Ming.

"Do you understand?"

"Nope. Su Ming shook his head.

"Your little doll's comprehension is too poor, see clearly, my old man will show you again. As he spoke, the old man picked up a piece of wood again, and as he picked up the axe, he split it in half again with a bang.

"You understand this time, right?" the old man looked at Su Ming. A look of anticipation.

"Nope. Su Ming frowned, but still shook his head.

"You...... That's it, I'll show you a little bit more. The old man spat into his hands, picked up the firewood and split it again.

"Got it?"

"Nope. ”

"Got it this time, right?"

"Still a little bit ......"

In this way, time passed slowly, and more than an hour passed in a blink of an eye, the old man kept chopping firewood, and Su Ming kept shaking his head until the last firewood was left in the yard. The old man's eyes rolled.

"You little ghost, are you angry old man!" The old man threw the axe in his hand and looked at Su Ming angrily, while rubbing his wrist, chopping wood for more than an hour. It seemed to make the old man a little tired.

"I understand this time, thank you for your advice. Su Ming's expression was calm, showing a thoughtful look, looking at the old man, nodding solemnly, and bowing deeply with his fists.

"Got it? What do you understand? The old man's eyes widened, and he said angrily.

"I chopped firewood. Every paragraph is very neat and regular, but such neatness and regularity are deliberate. Even if you don't have the consciousness to do this, it will naturally lead to such a result.

And the predecessors' chopping wood, every section is natural, whether it is broken lines or size. I can't find the same two, just like life...... There were no two either. It's really exactly the same, at most approximate.

The predecessors are not chopping wood here, but chopping their lives. Su Ming spoke slowly, and the words echoed in the middle of the night, so that the old man was silent for a long time after hearing it, slowly raised his head, and glanced at Su Ming deeply.

"Just a chopping wood, you can have such a long talk here, the old man tells you, I chop wood so much because this is the only way to burn the fire, understand, understand?

Chopping wood from you, it's not good to burn!!" The old man stood up angrily and glared at Su Ming.

"The younger generation only doesn't know, with the cultivation and identity of the seniors, which part of their life is going to be cut off, and why they want to cut it, and ...... Although I don't know how many years have passed, why ...... I never cut it off!" Su Ming looked at the old man, didn't care about his previous words, but spoke calmly.

"What a mess, sleep and sleep, that you kid, you will sleep outside in the future, and you are not allowed to sleep in the house!" the old man snorted, and turned to think about the house.

"Or, what the predecessors want to cut is not life, but the heart knot that has been condensed in that life, and you have to cut off your own heart knot so that the avenue can appear at your feet......

This knot in the heart, the reason why the predecessors have never cut it, is it because of this, even if the knot is the seniors, they are all hesitating, I don't know whether to cut it or not?" When Su Ming opened his mouth lightly, the old man didn't look back, he had already walked to the door of the house, and when he was about to raise his feet and step in, Su Ming suddenly seemed to have a touch of understanding in his expression.

"Do you mean...... The reason why the seniors hesitated to cut or should not be cut was because the seniors hesitated about the truth of this knot, and they were afraid that they would make a mistake, so they were undecided, so they ...... In this chopping wood, to calm your heart, instead of asking yourself, it is better to ask the way of heaven!" The moment Su Ming's words came out, the old man stepped into the threshold and paused, the whole person had one foot outside and one foot inside, slowly turned his head and looked at Su Ming, at this moment his expression showed a look that was very different from the usual.

It seemed to be dignified, with a hint of eye contraction, when looking at Su Ming, even Su Ming was obviously aware that this old man seemed to be different at this moment.

But what exactly is different, he can't say clearly.

"You ......" the old man paused slightly when he said lightly.

"Do you snore at night?" The moment this sentence came out, even Su Ming was stunned for a moment.

"Snoring, old man, I'll get you away. When the old man had finished speaking, he turned and walked into the house.

Su Ming stood there silent for a moment, a smile on his face.

"With Gu Tai's cultivation, the answer to the person who can make him respect so much has already been told to me, and among the three Ninefold Dao Gods, one is the Shura Dao of the Shura Gate, the second is the Emperor of the Imperial Capital, and the third is ...... But few people know about its sect and the number of the Dao ......" Su Ming looked up at the lights that were extinguished in the house at this moment, slowly sat down cross-legged, and closed his eyes.

When the morning came, the moment Su Ming opened his eyes, his eyes suddenly shrank, and he saw the courtyard. The firewood that had been cut last night was gathered together again as if time had been reversed.

"What are you doing in a daze, don't go and chop wood!" seemed to have some angry voices, and as the door of the house was pushed open, the old man changed into a small jacket and walked out with a smoking gun.

Su Ming groaned slightly, did not speak, and walked to the wooden mound fat. He picked up the axe, looked at the firewood, and closed his eyes, and when he opened them, there was no monk's sharpness in them. He could no longer see the aura of a monk on his body, as if the whole person was no longer a monk at this moment, but turned into a mortal youth.

Until this time, he dropped an axe at random, and the firewood was suddenly halved and not neat. It's big and small.

Looking at the two halves of the firewood, Su Ming seemed to be faintly touched, as if what he saw was not firewood, but a sense of creating some kind of life. Seem...... There were no two pieces of wood cut down like this in this world, but because of themselves, they appeared.

This feeling comes quickly, and it dissipates invisibly. It seems that when Su Ming wanted to grope carefully, he couldn't notice it. This is a clear difference from last night's chopping wood.

In the midst of a deep groan, Su Ming picked up the second piece of firewood and continued to chop it, one by one...... Until the whole day passed, Su Ming seemed to forget the passage of his day, until dusk, when he was in a trance, he saw that there was no whole piece of firewood in front of him.

"Hey, it's good to cut today, it's okay, you are allowed to rest and rest, so you can change into a piece of clothing, take these firewoods, and go to the carpenter Zhang at the west end of the village, in exchange for food and bring it back, old man, I haven't eaten for a day, and I'm dying of hunger." The old man sat on the threshold, smoking a cigarette pouch, patted a piece of clothing that had been prepared for Su Ming at some point, and said in an old-fashioned manner.

Su Ming walked over slowly, and instead of always clasping his fists and bowing like yesterday, he directly picked up his clothes and changed them in this courtyard, which was a burlap coat with some patches on it, which looked very plain.

After changing his clothes, Su Ming tied up the firewood in the yard again, and walked out of the yard with his back, under the sunset, his back was stretched very long, falling into the courtyard, in the eyes of the old man who was smoking a cigarette pouch, he watched Su Ming go away, slowly put down the cigarette pouch, and showed a touch of melancholy in his expression.

"Are you so old that even this little doll can see what is on my mind...... Keep chopping, can't chop...... This world ...... Finally...... Is it true or false?" the old man muttered softly, his face showing bitterness and confusion.

Day after day, such a life, a rare peace, soon passed three months, and in the past three months, Su Ming has been chopping wood, each time he has a different understanding, but there is always something missing...... Similarly, the three months also made Su Ming integrate into this village and be accepted by this village.

Everyone in the village knows that the old man in the east of the village has adopted an adopted son, and this adopted son has a nice name called Su Ming.

Until a rainy night half a year later......

The sky thundered and roared, the lightning swept across the earth, Su Ming in the yard, lying in the wooden shed, he has been here for half a year, although the rain is loud outside, but it has not dripped into the shed, Su Ming is lying here, but it is quite comfortable.

In this rainy night, outside the village, at the moment when lightning crossed the night sky, two figures walked out beside the jungle, it was two figures, one fat and one thin, wearing gray robes, and there seemed to be an invisible barrier around them as they stood there, making it impossible for the rain to approach.

It was as if they were standing there on the top of heaven and earth, especially the cultivation of these two people, and if any monk noticed it, he would be shocked, this is ...... Daozun!

"The Great Elder deduced the firmament of heaven and earth, counted all the ancient burials, and finally figured out where this person was, but I didn't expect that he was actually hiding in this mortal village!"

"Of course he wants to hide, but now that he has been found, he can't hide today. ”――
