Chapter 6 The dirtiest thing is human nature, the worst thing is the human heart

this……

Influenced by some novels about cultivating immortals in his previous life, he had always thought that the villains of demons and monsters would not just devour a city of mortals with their mouths, but would casually sacrifice an entire world with their blood.

Xu Boqing originally thought that with the body of a snake demon, he must also be a lord who cannibalize countless people...

He could just take this opportunity to reject its request to stay with him by saying things like "there is a difference between immortals and monsters" and "the fate is over", so as to escape.

Unexpectedly, it has been more than a hundred years since the snake demon opened its spiritual wisdom, and there are thirty-two cannibal spirits, and the victims are all scum. In comparison, it seems that it is not a big deal.

How to get out?

At this time, the snake demon leaned down to the ground tremblingly.

It has never been very courageous, it can even be said to be very small. It has been practicing for more than a hundred years with the main focus on "stabilizing (obeying) and strengthening (mind)".

Blocking the path of the Immortal Chief is the most daring thing I have ever done in my life. If you are lucky enough to serve the Immortal Chief, you can expect to lose your demonic body and wash away your beauty, even if you are not a fairy beast.

But the Immortal Chief is an 'immortal expert', and he is a monster that eats human souls. Maybe the Immortal Chief has already thought of subduing the demon at this time...

What should I do?

Just as it was thinking wildly, Xu Boqing also thought about a way to escape.

He pretended to shake his head and sighed: "Little snake, little snake, I finally know the reason why your cultivation is not advancing but retreating."

The snake demon's body trembled, and he hurriedly said in human words: "Please ask the immortal to save me. It's a great kindness, and the little demon will never forget it."

"I think it's not easy for you to practice cultivation, but you are destined to me, so that's fine."

Xu Boqing's voice paused. Although he knew that he had temporarily stabilized the situation, his legs were still a little weak, like a husky among a pack of wolves. It would be a lie to say he wasn't nervous.

He looked around and saw a stone with a Hongyang County road sign engraved on the side of the road, so he went over and sat down unceremoniously.

Then he asked in a cryptic manner: "Little snake, you have been practicing for more than a hundred years. In your eyes, what is the worst thing in this world? What is the dirtiest thing?"

"What is the worst thing? What is the dirtiest thing?"

The snake demon murmured softly in his mouth, watching the immortal sitting on the stone, the moonlight falling from the branches in the forest, just falling on him. Although his body was covered with mud and looked like a beggar, in its eyes, he was

Such a fairy-like spirit is unconventional and has a different kind of freedom and ease.

It bowed its head and responded respectfully: "The little demon has little knowledge. Not long after he first opened his mind, he saw an evil ghost born. The evil ghost killed hundreds of households in a mountain village. At that time, the evil wind gusted like a ghost crying and wailing.

The momentum was extremely frightening.

If the little demon hadn't escaped quickly, he would have been sucked in by the evil ghost and his cultivation path would be cut off.

I personally think that evil spirit is the most evil.

As for what is the dirtiest...

The little demon once saw a toad spirit in a swamp. Not only was it smelly, but it was also covered with pustules and malignant tumors, which made the little demon feel like vomiting.

I personally think that the toad spirit is the dirtiest."

When it talked about the evil ghost, he still looked frightened, and when it talked about the toad spirit, he looked completely terrified.

"good."

Xu Boqing smiled and nodded, but did not express any opinion on the evil ghost and the toad spirit. Based on his knowledge, he had no opinion at all.

So he said with a smile: "I know that one thing is the most evil and one thing is the dirtiest. You can guess what it is, little snake."

The snake demon thought for a while, shook his head and replied: "The little demon has little cultivation and little knowledge. I dare not make rash guesses. I hope the immortal can speak clearly."

Xu Boqing did not sell out, and sighed: "In the eyes of poor Taoists, the most evil thing is the human heart, and the dirtiest thing is human nature."

"The most evil thing is the human heart, and the dirtiest thing is human nature."

The snake demon murmured these words in his mouth, and his heart was a little palpitating. The immortal is indeed a wonderful and true immortal. Just two casual sentences can be so unfathomable, which makes the snake think deeply.

"This man has a special preference in the world. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the most powerful among all creatures. However, his mind is also the most complex and his desires are the deepest. He has his own destiny for a drink and a peck."

Xu Boqing sighed, and then continued: "I once saw four young people in their teens breaking into the home of a newly married couple for money.

After getting the money, the four of them took advantage of the situation, tied up the husband, and raped his wife, who was already several months pregnant, in front of him, eventually killing her.

The newly married couple, together with the unborn child, and the family of three died tragically due to the endless desires of others. What kind of vicious human heart did they experience?

I have also seen a master who has been teaching and educating people for decades conscientiously being slandered as a thief who raped students by students who did not want to go to school.

The Master lived with his injustice for more than ten years and died in depression. Even until his death, he could not take off the hat of "dressed like a beast" and "disgraceful to a scholar" from his head. He may be cast aside by others even after his death.

What kind of dirty humanity did he experience?"

At the end, he sighed meaningfully: "Everyone in the world says that ghosts are scary, but in the eyes of poor people, the evil of people's hearts and the dirty nature of human nature make them even more evil than ghosts."

The snake demon was silent for a long time before nodding in agreement: "The little demon also understands what the immortal said."

"Humans and demons have a different path. While your cannibal essence nourishes your cultivation, it is actually contaminated with all kinds of human nature. Therefore, in recent years, the spiritual platform has been covered with dust, and your cultivation has retreated instead of advancing..."

Xu Boqing pondered for a moment and then asked: "After you ate human essence to nourish your body, you must have had the idea of ​​eating it again next time. Is there anything wrong in what I said?"

After hearing the words, the snake demon's vertical pupils shrank. Thinking that the Immortal Chief was a master of the Immortal Way, it was reasonable to see through his own thoughts, so he quickly leaned to the ground...

He responded with a trembling voice: "The Immortal has magical eyes and is able to communicate with the gods. The little...little demon did have such an idea, but the little demon just thought about it and did not actually do it..."

Since cannibal spirits can nourish one's cultivation, there is no need to think about it. The snake demon must have had some wrong thoughts.

After all, who doesn't want to take shortcuts?

Even in his previous life, he wanted to find a rich woman to take a shortcut in life...

"It doesn't matter, the deeds don't matter the heart. There are no good people in the world. I think that no matter whether you are a human or a demon, you only need to have clear thoughts and a clear conscience when doing things..."

Xu Boqing smiled slightly, showing a look that was just as I expected, and sighed: "As I said before, people's hearts are complex and mottled, and human nature is difficult to predict. Although the food eaten by monsters is nourishing, it will also be contaminated with the cause and effect.

If there are monsters who can't bear the greed in their hearts and keep eating for a long time, it may seem like nourishment, but in fact it is caused by cause and effect, desire, and karma, and the dust on the spiritual platform will become more serious.

As time goes by, although you improve your cultivation, you will lose your spiritual intelligence and become a ferocious beast with only instincts."

The snake demon's body trembled, and he suddenly felt frightened. He hurriedly spoke in human words: "Immortal chief, the little demon's cultivation is still shallow. I don't understand the deeper meaning and am guilty of greed...

I will never eat people again in the future... No... the little demon will never hurt anyone in the future. This... but... is there a way to make up for it?"

"Haha~ Little snake, you are obsessed~"

Xu Boqing smiled and said: "Everything has animism and desires. Even ants can live in vain, let alone you who have opened up your spiritual wisdom?"

He paused and searched for some ambiguous chicken soup from his previous life, and said: "Humans can eat animals, and animals can also eat humans. Drinking and pecking is in accordance with the laws of nature.

But you have opened your spiritual wisdom and escaped from the ignorant and beastly behavior. Although you have a little more freedom and freedom, you also have a few more limitations of your mind.

Not cannibalistic, but...

Not hurting people may not be right.

If someone is greedy and wants to kill you, wouldn’t your innocuous thoughts just put you in shackles?”

He shook his head and pretended to sigh: "Asking for immortality, what you are seeking is immortality. In fact, what you are asking is not the Tao, but the heart. Most demon cultivators cultivate their bodies, but they forget that cultivating the heart is the foundation of the Tao.

If the heart is upright, the spiritual platform will be clear and the road will be bright;

If the heart is evil, the spiritual platform will be covered with dust and the road will be dark."

The snake demon's heart was moved, and he leaned on the ground in a daze, as if he was digesting the 'profound essence' of it.

When Xu Boqing saw this, he just smiled slightly.

A lot of what he said were nonsense that seemed reasonable at first glance, but upon closer inspection turned out to be vague and devoid of any content or nutrition...

The time is right...

He waved his hand and said: "You can't say enough, little snake, the fate of you and me meeting today has been exhausted, go away~ go away~"

The snake demon came back from his daze. When he heard what the Immortal said, he knew that the Immortal was driving away the demon. Although he was reluctant to give up, he did not dare to disobey.

So he bowed up and said with tears in his eyes: "The little demon also knows that there are differences between immortals and demons. He just regrets that his cultivation is too shallow and he cannot serve around the immortal to repay the kindness of preaching."

"What kind of repayment?"

Xu Boqing shook his head, pretending to be relieved and said: "You just need to practice well, be kind to demons, and don't waste your words today. Go ahead~go ahead~"

"The little demon will never forget the kindness of the immortal to preach."

The snake demon saluted again, and just as he was about to swim away, he turned around again and leaned on the ground and uttered human words: "Little...little demon dares to ask for the name of my mentor."

"..."

Xu Boqing pondered for a while and said seriously: "The poor Taoist Xu Genshuo, whose Taoist name is Chunyangzi, was reincarnated and re-cultivated to practice his mind in the mortal world.

I never thought that I would meet you right after I reincarnated and started cultivating again. It is considered a fate. If you can successfully transform in the future, you can use this Taoist name to find me, and then Pindao will give you a fate."

As long as it's something we can talk about later, it's easy to talk about.

The snake demon was overjoyed and called the Immortal Master his mentor. The Immortal Master was not angry and even promised to go to him after he transformed and give him a gift. Wasn't he acquiescing to this missionary destiny in disguise?

It bowed and saluted again, "Thank you, Master, for giving me the Dharma!!"

"Go, go, go~"

Xu Boqing smiled on the surface, but in his heart he was thinking that this snake demon had a lot of troubles. He seemed to have thought of something, and warned him sternly: "Also, after you go back to practice, don't mention the reincarnation of the poor Taoist to other people or demons.

Human, demon!!”

"Don't worry, little demon."

The snake demon said: "The purpose of the reincarnation of the teacher is to practice his mind. It is a great gift for the little demon to get this fate. How can other people know the trace of the teacher?"

"Well, let's go~"

"Little demon, please retire..."
