Chapter 71: This is the Dao Heart
"Never mind, never mind."
"That was Rahu when he was a good person, not the Rahu who has turned bad now."
"If I go out rashly, it will be bad if he catches me."
Ultimately, Wang Shu did not have the courage to take that step and chose to continue spying and observing.
However, Wang Shu was also puzzled.
"That Taoist priest clearly spotted me yesterday, but he didn't make any further moves? I really don't understand!"
"Does he look down on me?"
"hateful!"
Not to mention, given Wang Shu's personality and her previous state.
I'm afraid it won't be long before she walks right into my trap.
Too suspicious, too curious.
And they've become bolder; before, they would spy on others from a hundred meters away, but now they dare to do so from within eighty meters.
Previously, he was tense and ready to slip away at any moment, but now he has relaxed and is sitting down to spy.
This is definitely a sign that the fear is gradually diminishing.
Perhaps it won't be long before she dares to openly spy on people.
…………
the other side.
Kunpeng arrived at the Fourteen-Step Paper Doll Space.
"They held hands, they kissed, haha... I've won. Fellow Daoist Hongjun, even if you are the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao and wield the rules of heaven and earth, the wonder of fate lies in this: fate is unpredictable and ever-changing."
Young Master Qiankun clapped his hands in delight and cheered.
"No, no. It's not that this old Taoist was wrong in his prediction, but rather that the rules of this world collapsed... Fellow Daoist, you also saw that when they were human, these two lovers were destined to be apart... It was only because the world collapsed and demonic energy filled the air that one of them became a pig demon and the other a spider demon, and that's how they got together."
Hongjun refused to admit that he was wrong.
It's okay to lose, but I didn't do anything wrong.
Hongjun Daoist continued, "If this world had not collapsed, this would never have happened. The couple would have been separated by force, and even if they had been united, it would have been an unblessed union, truly a wrong path."
Qiankun disagreed, saying, "A life full of twists and turns is still a life, and the eventual separation is still an event. What matters is having had it all. Why force a life that lasts forever? Fellow Daoist Hongjun, you are too rigid."
Kunpeng: ...
What are you doing?
Are you two just bored?
What are you doing?
He followed their gaze and saw that a love story was unfolding in a fragment of time and space.
Are you watching TV?
"You two seem to be enjoying yourselves!" Kunpeng walked over.
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Kunpeng, you've arrived. I'm currently discussing the Dao with Fellow Daoist Hongjun. I've clearly won, but Fellow Daoist Hongjun seems unwilling to admit defeat," said Young Master Qiankun happily.
Obviously, no one found Kunpeng: Haha.
"No, no. If this world were to function normally, this love would never have been born. The love that has been born now is not love, but a false obsession, an echo of resentment, and a distortion."
"See, they just won't admit it." Qiankun said to Kunpeng, "Fellow Daoist, I have come to understand. Heaven and earth are real because of destiny; otherwise, they would be nothing but empty illusions. And the actors who orchestrate destiny are precisely the endless loves, hates, separations, births, aging, sickness, and deaths of countless living beings..."
Kunpeng was initially very angry, but after listening for a while, he stopped being angry.
The two weren't slacking off; they were genuinely discussing the Dao.
It is nothing more than using images from fragments of time to discuss philosophical ideas.
While listening to the two arguing, Kunpeng watched "Fragments of Love in Time and Space".
I roughly understand now; it's a melodramatic story that happened in this world.
The man was a poor loser, and the woman was a rich heiress. They fell in love, but their relationship was not accepted by others.
In the end, the man was frustrated and unsuccessful, while the woman was forced to marry someone of equal social standing.
That would have been the end of it all.
However, the fact that a scene can be captured by fragments of time and space must mean that it is not a simple thing.
Ordinary melodramatic dramas cannot affect the passage of time and space, nor can they remain as a separate fragment of time and space.
Sure enough, the world collapsed and order crumbled. The man died, but not completely. He was corrupted and twisted by demonic energy into a pig demon. The woman also died, but not completely either. She became a spider demon.
In the end, the pig demon male protagonist and the spider demon female protagonist got together.
That's outrageous.
In the normal world, their love was not well-regarded or blessed; everyone tried to stop them, and they ultimately did not end up together.
But with the collapse of heaven and earth and the disintegration of order, the distorted world brought the two of them together.
Even though they are different species living together, that doesn't matter.
Let's talk about whether they're together or not.
Not only did they get together, but they were also edited into a fragment by the collapsing spacetime.
Like this apocalyptic world, it exists in a different time and space with every step.
Hongjun and Qiankun happened to see it, and it's unclear who started it, but Qiankun said they would definitely be together.
Hongjun thought it was impossible. Heaven and earth have their own rules and order, and human beings have their own rules and standards.
The fact that this ill-fated couple cannot be together is not a choice of the natural order, but rather a choice of the human world.
It is the rules and norms that have been formed by humankind itself that are the instigators of this destruction of love, not heaven and earth.
Heaven and earth sustain everything, but the path that living beings take is one they themselves choose.
Therefore, the way of Heaven is impartial, but also ruthless.
Strictly speaking, impartiality is correct, while ruthlessness is defilement.
It's not that Heaven is heartless; it's the living beings on earth that are heartless.
What kind of social atmosphere has been formed by the path one chooses, and what is its relationship with the rules of heaven and earth?
How can we blame heaven and earth for being heartless?
Hongjun said that it was impossible for them to be together; this was the choice made by the established order of human society. It wouldn't count once that order collapsed and the rules broke down.
Qiankun Gongzi said, "Who cares how they got together? Whether they got together after the collapse or after the world was twisted, just say they weren't together at all."
One speaks of the order of heaven and earth, and the order of humanity.
One said that fate was full of twists and turns, and that fate was magical.
One focuses on the process, the other on the result.
"Fellow Daoist Kunpeng possesses great wisdom, what is your opinion?" Hongjun asked.
"This?" Kunpeng said, "The process is important, the result is important, order is important, and fate is important."
The two were confused. Was this some kind of nonsense?
"Which one is more important?" Qiankun asked.
"Both are important, and neither is important," Kunpeng said, feigning profundity. "The heart is more important."
"Heart?"
It was somewhat beyond their comprehension.
"That's right, the heart is more important. If the heart chooses the result, then the result is the most important; if the heart chooses the process, then the process is very important. What you care about is what matters."
After speaking, he looked at the two of them and asked, "Do you two understand?"
"I understand half of it, but not all of it," Qiankun said.
"Seven parts, I'd say. There are still three parts I don't understand," Hongjun said.
"The answer needs to be asked of this pig demon and the spider demon; whatever they deem important is important."
After saying that, he looked at the two of them and continued, "Similarly, the answer also depends on the two of you. If you think the result is important, then the result is important, and vice versa."
"This is the heart."
"Then add your own insights, and that is the Dao mind."
After Kunpeng finished speaking, the two of them roughly understood.
