Sword Dao Alchemy

The holy peak is not high, less than a thousand feet, and the stone path winds up.

Lin Yun and Qing Xiao stepped onto the stone path. On the steps of the stone path, there was a picture with a frog sitting in a pond.

Just as Lin Yun and Qing Xiao stood on the picture, suddenly, the scene in front of them changed, and they appeared in a quiet wasteland in a blink of an eye.

In front of the two, there was a small pond, surrounded by green trees, wild flowers flourishing, and the breeze blew, adding a touch of vitality to this quietness.

A frog was lying on the wet bluestone in the pond and singing happily.

"Brother! This frog is carefree and very comfortable!" Qing Xiao looked at it and said with some envy.

Lin Yun did not speak, but held Qing Xiao's hand tighter, and the two of them quietly felt the happiness of the frog.

A bird flew over from the sky and landed on a branch beside the pond. It saw the frog and asked, "Aren't you lonely and bored living here alone?"

The frog looked at the bird and smiled, "I am very happy living here!"

"When I am happy, I jump and play by the pond, and when I am tired, I rest among the soft water plants. Sometimes I soak my body comfortably in the water, and sometimes I take a walk happily in the mud."

"I have those little bugs to fill my stomach, the breeze to sing for me, and the grass to dance for me! I occupy this pond alone, how free! Why should I be lonely and bored?"

The bird laughed loudly when it heard the frog say this: "How can you be so short-sighted! What is the happiness you have here!"

"The world outside is very big, with more beautiful scenery than here, fatter insects, more beautiful songs, and many enjoyments you have never seen!"

"Wow! You are right! But those are the happiness of others after all. I am already very happy here, so there is no need to imitate them!"

The frog rolled up his bulging eyes and spit out a string of bubbles, which glowed in the air with a psychedelic brilliance.

"You are such a stupid and unprogressive guy! I told you so kindly about the things outside, but you were indifferent! You are really hopeless!" The bird was a little angry.

The frog turned over, facing the sky with its white belly, and closed its bulging eyes.

"Hey! Look at this guy! I told him many happy and beautiful things with kindness, but he treated me like this!" The bird shouted at Lin Yun and Qing Xiao.

"Oh! How free it is here! If it goes to the places you mentioned, maybe it can feel happy occasionally, but it will lose its freedom after all! Just like you, you said those places are happy, why do you run to this wilderness now?" Qing Xiao laughed softly.

"Humph! Another person without a future!" The bird became more and more angry, and almost pulled the hair off its head.

"Tell me, who of us is right!" The bird shouted at Lin Yun.

"Each of you has your own reason! The mystery in this is only clear in your heart! No one can measure the happiness of others with their own happiness, and cannot use their own happiness to estimate the happiness of others!"

"Happiness is happiness, and joy is joy. There is no difference in size. It depends on whether it exists in your heart!"

Lin Yun smiled faintly, but he was already holding Qing Xiao's hand, and gradually went away in the sound of frogs snoring and birds slapping their heads angrily...

Lin Yun and Qing Xiao stepped onto the mountain path again, and they had already stepped over this painting.

When the two looked back at the picture, they saw that the frog in the painting had changed its posture and fell asleep on the bluestone.

"It seems that we are satisfied with this first painting." Lin Yun smiled slightly.

"Because we are happy people!" Qing Xiao felt Lin Yun's heartbeat.

Lin Yun and Qing Xiao walked along the way, but they saw countless secular scenes. The characters here are not real, but just a world of soul illusion.

The scenes presented here are the mental journeys of practitioners in the world

......

The willows are swaying, and the clear water turns around a bend and leaves without looking back!

The young man and woman said goodbye in tears at the ancient ferry. After this departure, they didn't know when they would meet again.

Finally, the boat carrying the jade-like person disappeared, and the sad man hesitated to return.

"Why didn't he go with her?" Lin Yun sighed.

"If I could go with her, I would naturally go with her. Sometimes, some things are beyond his control." Qing Xiao also sighed. She remembered that she was forcibly taken back and separated from her beloved brother for three years.

It was not until her brother came to find her that she could smile.

As long as the two of them are together in heart, they will be together even if they are separated by the sky.

"Everyone, come and see! Pearls from the South Sea, each one is worth a thousand gold!"

In the bustling market, a shrewd businessman was soliciting his sales, but after all, there were many people watching, but no one wanted to buy.

The man who was walking in a daze seemed to have not heard the tempting shouting.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up.

The box containing the pearl was engraved with faint water waves, a small boat was sailing in the water waves, and a beautiful woman stood alone at the bow, her melancholy eyes wanted to see through the distant sky

"Clatter!"

A pile of snow-white silver was placed in front of the boss.

The sad man's eyes had a little brilliance, a brilliance full of hope.

He took out the pearl from the box, threw it aside like a broken stone, and carefully placed the red beans in his palm into the box, holding it as if he had found a treasure, looking extremely happy!

"Sir! Your pearl!" Although the businessman was shrewd, he still did not forget the principles of doing business, but the man had already gone far away and could not be caught up.

"This man is really blind! He can't even recognize such a pearl, and he only wants that broken box after spending a thousand golds!" The onlookers sneered.

Lin Yun pulled Qing Xiao away, no longer sighing in his heart, and was also happy!

What I bought with a thousand golds is just what I like. What I don't like is a priceless treasure, what is the difference between it and that dirt?

.......

"Roar!"

A spotted tiger rushed out of the forest and pounced on several woodcutters who were chopping wood.

"Ah! Run!"

People screamed in fear and ran out of the forest desperately. The tiger had harmed them for many years, and they had already learned how to escape in the forest.

In the end, only one person lost his arm, which was bitten by the tiger.

He chopped off his arm with the axe in his hand without thinking. Although he lost his arm, he saved his life. Although it was tragic, he did not fall into a more tragic situation.

"Elder! Those beasts hurt people again today!" People carried the man with a broken arm to the elder of the village.

The elder sighed and shook his head, without saying anything, and took out herbs to apply to the man with the broken arm.

The medicine was applied quickly, and the elder asked, "Is this the first person injured this year?"

"Yes! Elder."

"Alas! These beasts have moved here for more than ten years! They have eaten three people in total and injured more than a dozen."

"It's just that they have eaten a lot of cows, sheep, pigs, and dogs! But over the years, there have been no deaths, and at most one person is injured a year. If it doesn't work, we can move to another place." The elder sighed.
