    The banishment of immortals to the mortal world is a bit sad no matter how you look at it, but Ting Ting is sincerely happy.  Master Zixuan was thoughtful and didn't know where his mind was wandering for a moment.  After a long time, Master Zixuan worriedly asked: "Honorable Sir, will you completely become a mortal?" Diting nodded and said: "Yes. I have lost all my magic power now, and I am no different from ordinary people." Master Zixuan was a little guilty.  Could it be: "Then what should I do?" Di heard: "It's nothing. When the Bodhisattva incarnated into the world, he was also a mortal body. Take your time, take your time, this is a good thing." Master Zixuan thought for a while and said: "I'll do it later  It's time to go back to the mountain. Your Majesty, please come with me. "Now that Di Ting has lost all his power, Master Zixuan is really afraid of what will happen to him.  Even regardless of his friendship with Tingting, if something really happened, it would be difficult for the Bodhisattva to explain it to him. After all, he still showed his affection for the Bodhisattva.  Unexpectedly, Tingting refused: "I won't go with you if you don't. This is my practice and my opportunity. The Bodhisattva allows me to come to the human world once. If I am not enlightened, I will have no shame in going back to see her."  Zixuan joked: "My venerable sir, you have to be careful. Don't be caught and used as dog meat for stew." Diting said angrily: "You, you." Master Zixuan laughed and said: "  I won¡¯t disturb the Lord¡¯s rest. But remember to come to Jingshi Mountain if you have anything to do. I¡¯m afraid I won¡¯t leave for a long time.¡± ¡°I know, I know, get out of here, get out of here.¡± Di Ting didn¡¯t bother to pay attention to him.  Get away.  After saying goodbye, Master Zixuan called Zhang Qing and asked, "Who has been looking for me these days?" Zhang Qing said, "Tianlong Temple sent someone to ask, and there was also a Qingyu girl who asked for an audience on behalf of her young lady. Oh.  , and that Kufengzi also came to invite the temple master to go to the Dao Palace." Master Zixuan thought for a moment and said, "Zhang Qing, go to Tianlong Temple overnight, find Master Shenxiu, and tell him what he is looking for.  There will be news at the Water and Land Ceremony tomorrow. Please ask him not to act rashly and not to cause trouble." Zhang Qing nodded and was about to leave, when Master Zixuan said again, "When you come back, go to Miss Lou.  Keep that thing away carefully that day. Don't show it to others easily." Zhang Qing nodded and said, "Don't worry, Master, I'll go first." Master Zixuan watched Zhang Qing leave.  After thinking about it, he took out the purple bamboo stick and hung it a little in the air.  At this moment, a little orange light shimmered on the purple bamboo pole, causing the bright moon in the sky to rotate slightly.  About a quarter of an hour later, Master Zixuan collected his magic power.  Then he waited quietly.  Half an hour later, Feng Qing came to invite him, saying that there were carriages and horses from the imperial city waiting for Master Zixuan outside the door.  "Taoist Priest, there are guards from the Imperial City outside the door. Please go ahead, Taoist Priest, I don't know" Feng Qingchi asked.  Master Zixuan nodded and said, "I understand, I'll go out right away." Sui Fengqing walked out the door.  Two Jin Dao guards were waiting outside. Seeing Master Zixuan come out, they immediately bowed and said, "But Taoist Master Xuanzi?" Master Zixuan said, "It's me." "Taoist Master, please get in the car. The Imperial Master invites you." Jin Dao  The guard said respectfully.  Master Zixuan was not surprised and nodded: "Okay." He got in the car.  The Golden Sword Guard drove quickly to the outside of the imperial city. Suddenly, a ray of white light came from the sky and illuminated the carriage and horses.  He saw a white horse-drawn carriage flying into the air, and a golden bridge appeared in mid-air, which actually led the carriage to it.  If anyone sees this again, they will immediately find that the two guards who were originally driving have fallen asleep.  Master Zixuan is sitting in the carriage.  It's a bit clear, a bit dazed, and a bit puzzled.  I don¡¯t know how long it took before the carriage landed.  Master Zixuan got out of the car.  Suddenly he felt in a trance.  Deep inside this imperial city, there is a paradise in heaven!  Not stained by worldly dust, the trees and flowers are fragrant, and there are countless birds and beasts.  There are three or two strange peaks, and a few "kouhuo" waters, which fully demonstrate the beauty of the pastoral mountains.  There is a thatched cottage with a high shed outside the carriage.  Outside the thatched cottage, there was an old man standing, wearing a Taoist robe, looking at him with a smile.  When Master Zixuan saw this old man, he stood stunned on the spot, and then tears rolled down his cheeks.  "Master, senior brotherhow did you become like this?" Old people are killing each other, how can Master Zixuan not recognize it?  How could a man who was in his prime and prosperous in the past become an old man now?  Recalling the time when he first came to Qingwei Cave Heaven, the person who led him to preach was the Fourth Senior Brother Xu Changqing and Master Xuanyin.  That day, Daogong left without saying goodbye, and it was already thirty years since we met again. Thirty years of time, in the clear and tiny cave sky, regardless of the years, but in the world of mortals, it was?Half a lifetime.  But Master Zixuan never thought that Xu Changqing would become what he is now.  Seeing him like this, Xu Changqing raised his hand to wipe his tears and said: "Okay, okay. Junior brother. I haven't seen you for so many years, but I didn't expect that your cultivation level has almost caught up with my brother. Seeing you like this, senior brother is very happy."  After Master Zixuan was excited, he gradually recovered his mood and said in a deep voice: "Brother, tell me, why did it become like this?"  The meridians and meridians are all things in this world. They cannot transcend the end of bad emptiness. Senior brother, I have been cultivating in Qingwei Cave for four hundred years, but I have inherited the merits of my teacher and am not worried about my fate in this mortal world.  Ten years have passed, and senior brother is naturally old." Master Zixuan was slightly stunned, and then felt a chill.  Thirty years, thirty years.  If we talk about it in terms of mortals, how many thirty years are there in a human life? ?????????? Half a lifetime is a lot. ????????? Master Zixuan sat alone for thirty years after enlightenment and metamorphosis. At that time, he didn¡¯t understand anything and thought that all practitioners were like this.  As the saying goes, it only lasts a few years in the mountains, that's all.  Even if I follow the order of my ancestor to go down the mountain to practice, there is no sense of urgency for more than a year.  But now I see how the fourth senior brother looks like now. He has lost his splendor and grandeur, and has gone away from being suave, leaving only a wrinkled face and an old and frail body.  What a slap in the face!  "Life is short, I never thought about it before, but now" Is Xu Changqing's merit sufficient?  Of course it is enough. If he is a direct disciple of the Patriarch and does not have enough merit, who can?  Does Xu Changqing have a bad root?  Of course it is good. Those who can enter the Tao and practice wonderful things will not be able to achieve it unless they have insufficient abilities.  Even so, Master Zixuan also saw that Xu Changqing's time was running out.  Exactly: The tree without roots, the flowers are quiet, who is willing to give up if he is greedy for glory.  Floating things happen.  A boat on the sea of ??suffering, drifting back and forth without freedom.  It has no shore, no edge, and no anchorage. It often swims in dangerous places with fish and dragons.  If you are willing to look back, you are at the end of the river. Don¡¯t wait for the storm to damage the boat Master Zixuan said in a deep voice: "Brother, please go back to Qingwei now. Master is here. You will be fine." Xu Changqing said hoarsely: "Little Junior Brother  "You are thinking too much. Once you leave Qingwei, you are not allowed to go back without obeying the teacher's instructions." Master Zixuan shook his head and said, "I don't believe it. Master is so compassionate. How could he let you go out?" Xu Changqing shook his head.  Said: "The kindness of a teacher is not to protect, but to teach. The virtue of a teacher is not to educate people, but to open up wisdom." Xu Changqing took his master Zixuan into the thatched cottage, and the two of them sat on their knees on the ground.  "Although the Qingwei Blessed Land is a blessed land for Taoists, it is not a place to achieve success. Junior brother, you have seen so many practitioners in Qingwei Cave Heaven, how many of them have achieved success?" Xu Changqing asked.  Master Zixuan pondered for a moment and said: "There are many lay people in Qingfu, but they are all carefree and unconcerned. There are more spiritual beasts and immortals, and most of them are people who are peaceful and do not think about danger." Then he said a little embarrassedly: "Don't talk about them.  , even my junior brother is like this. I always think that with the master behind me, everything will be safe. No matter how big the disaster is, there will be no trouble in the world. I will just point back to Yue Xuanguang Cave." Xu Changqing laughed.  , nodded and said: "Yes. It's so many, not only you, but also our disciples, who are not?" Xu Changqing sighed: "But the Tao is one's own. The road is also walked by oneself. No matter how great the teacher's magical power is,  I can't help you walk. Even if he can incarnate millions of people and teach you three thousand ways, you still can't walk. It's useless." I will give you a copy of the Immortality Sutra and a few moral sentences.  .  If you caress your head for long hair, it will still be useless if you don't suffer.  Hu Sang¡¯s hard work has no way out. If he could only hear a single mantra, he would be willing to die.  Taoist Qinghe found a way, but ran out of time, so he cried and begged to move the cauldron.  There is no perfect Dharma in the world, and I can¡¯t wait for you to achieve great enlightenment before giving you time to practice.  It is never too late to practice, but it is never too late.  Master Zixuan felt sad in his heart and said: "I don't believe it, can the teacher really leave his senior brother alone?" Xu Changqing was open-minded and smiled slightly and said: "Little junior brother, what do you think of this life?" Master Zixuan was startled.  Then he said: "Compared with the lifespan of an aphid in one day, a human being is worried. Compared with a human being who has passed through for hundreds of generations, the heaven and earth are worried." Xu Changqing said: "Compared with the eternal life of heaven and earth, those who live forever will exist." Master Zi Xuandao: "Brother,  What you said is wrong. Practitioners, in order to seek immortality, if you talk about eternal life??That's a big lie.  Immortals are banished and Buddhas are destroyed. How can there be eternal life?  " Xu Changqing said: "The living are not happy, and the dead are not miserable. If we are truly transcendent, the vacuum will not be destroyed.  There is no such thing as life and there is no such thing as death.  Fear of death and great horror are all due to the existence of life.  Those who seek to eliminate suffering and recall the Yang world are all because of their existence.  "Xu Changqing's eyes were as bright as lightning, and he said leisurely: "If I were an immortal in his time, my whole life would only last a moment.  " "If I were not an immortal in that year, the world would be destroyed in just a moment.  " "If I were not an immortal in his time, the reincarnation of the world would last only a moment.  " He said to his master Zixuan: "Just like the teacher, he sees you and me in this world.  One life of confusion, ten lives of confusion, it's just a short moment.  Suffering some disasters and going through some disasters are all gains and good things.  Just for that more beautiful peak.  " "So the teacher won't help us with everything, we have to rely on ourselves for everything.  " Master Zixuan was stunned for a long time, and said with a wry smile: "Why does it sound so scary?  Senior brother, is Master as scary as you say?  Xu Changqing said calmly: "It doesn't matter whether it's scary or not. Everything the teacher does has its own reasons."  " Master Zixuan understood that Xu Changqing was unwilling to talk any more. He hesitated for a moment and then asked: "Brother, I have something to ask you.  What have you done in the thirty years since you left the mountain?  Why did he become the national teacher of this dynasty?  " The imperial preceptor of a dynasty had a high position and great authority. He was inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people. But Master Zixuan did not believe that Xu Changqing would be the one who was greedy for power and neglected his spiritual practice.
