The Tao can be told, but it is not the constant Tao. The name can be named, but it is not the constant name. Without name is the beginning of all things; with name, it is the mother of all things. Therefore, there is always no desire to observe its scent; with desire to observe its scent. The two are the same, and the same name is the same. The mysterious is also mysterious, and the door to all scents.

...

Believe in words but not be beautiful, and be beautiful. Good people do not argue, and argue against others are not good. Knowledge is not broad, and those who are broad do not know. The sage does not accumulate, and thinks that the more ones they have, the more ones they have, the more ones they have with others. The way of heaven is profitable but not harmed. The way of sages is to do but not fight.

...

After reading the Tao Te Ching that is no different from the later generations, Zuo Xiaoyou frowned.

No feeling.

...

There is a fish in the north, whose name is Kun. Kun is so big that it is not known how many thousands of miles it turns into a bird, which is called Peng. Peng is so angry that it is not known how many thousands of miles it is. It flies in anger, and its wings are like clouds hanging from the sky. This is a bird, and it will move to the south. The southern part of the south is the Tianchi.

...

After reading the Nanhua Sutra, the sky was about to dawn. Zuo Xiaoyou went to prepare breakfast in a daze, took care of the vegetable garden in a daze, made vegetarian meat in a daze, and then set a small stove for Qingfeng and Mingyue in a daze, and finally rested in a daze.

Qingfeng Mingyue and other Taoist priests did not notice Zuo Xiaoyou's trance, because he was acting no differently than usual. Only Zuo Xiaoyou himself knew that his soul and body seemed to have become two different individuals. He was clearly thinking about something else, but his body seemed to be entrusted, which made him wonder if he was schizophrenia?

This situation lasted for a month until Zhen Yuanzi returned.

"Master is back to the mountain!" On that day, a white cloud floated over Wuzhuang Temple, and auspicious aura rushed towards him, awakening Zuo Xiaoyou, who was in a schizophrenia.

"Huh?" Zuo Xiaoyou moved his hands and feet, and found that his body was controlled by him again. He was extremely surprised. But before he could be happy, a figure appeared in front of him.

Zuo Xiaoyou was startled, took three steps back, and looked at it, and couldn't help but lit up.

This man is a Taoist, wearing a purple gold crown on his head, worries-free crane cloak, walking shoes under his feet, and a ribbon tied around his waist. His figure looks like a boy, his face looks like a beautiful woman. His three beards float under his chin, and his crow feathers folded on his temples.

What a good person who knows the truth.

"This... isn't it Zhenyuan's immortal in front of him?" Zuo Xiaoyou asked carefully.

The visitor was Zhen Yuanzi. He left for many days before, but he went to the Heavenly Court to attend the Peach Banquet. Unexpectedly, a monkey made a mess in heaven. As a result, the Peach Banquet was not completed, and Zhen Yuanzi returned in a little disappointed manner.

Just as he drove to the sky above Wuzhuang Temple, he noticed that there was a stranger in the temple whose soul and body were close to each other.

Zhen Yuanzi was knowledgeable and knew that this person was a traitor who was practicing martial arts and was half dead. Fortunately, someone in Wuzhuang Temple suppressed the ginseng fruit, which prevented the person's soul from completely leaving his body. Otherwise, this person would have gone to the underworld to report to the underworld.

Seeing that this person was not plagued by cause and effect, out of kindness, Zhen Yuanzi used the breath of a ginseng fruit tree to help the person return to his soul, and then appeared in front of him.

But after looking closer, Zhen Yuanzi was shocked. This person was obviously just an ordinary person, and even his practice was just beginning, or even not in the state of being in the beginning, but his fate was like smoke and fog, and he could not see the past and future at all.

With Zhen Yuanzi's seniority, he can only see such a person in those who have attained the Taoist fruit, but this person also has this situation. What is the reason?

Zhen Yuanzi suddenly became interested. Seeing him asking, he nodded: "It's me, who are you? Why are you in my Wuzhuang Temple?"

"Master is here, please accept a bow from your disciple." Zuo Xiaoyou said nothing and wanted to kneel down, but before he could kneel down, he was held back by an invisible force and could not kneel down at all.

Zhen Yuanzi looked at him with a smile, and Zuo Xiaoyou looked helpless: "Master, I am dedicated to the Tao, and I hope Master will take it in."

"Hehe." Zhen Yuanzi smiled: "Who are you and why are you here in my Wuzhuang Temple?"

Seeing Zhen Yuanzi being serious, Zuo Xiaoyou had to say, "Disciple Zuo Xiaoyou, a Chinese family. How did you come to Wuzhuang Temple... The disciple didn't know, but the disciple was napping. When he opened his eyes, he suddenly appeared in front of Wuzhuang Temple. I hope the master would understand it."

To Qingfeng Mingyue and the others, he could pretend that he had lost his memory, but he told the truth in front of Zhen Yuanzi. In his opinion, he must not lie in front of powerful people. They have lived too long and have seen everything. Can you tell me whether they lie at a glance? Instead of lying and leaving a sense of disgust, it is better to tell your origin openly.

But he concealed the location and time and space of China. If Zhen Yuanzi could calculate it, he would recognize it. If he couldn't calculate it, he wouldn't blame him for hiding it.

After hearing the word "Hua Guo", Zhen Yuanzi made a secret calculation, but this calculation was completely blurred. However, he confirmed that Zuo Xiaoyou did not lie. If he really lies, then his calculations would only show nothingness, not blurredness.

Nothingness means nothing, but vague means there is, but his Taoism is too shallow and cannot be calculated.

Seeing that the Three Realms still had a position that he could not calculate, Zhen Yuanzi was shocked and asked quietly: "Where is China?"

"Disciple doesn't know." Zuo Xiaoyou shook his head: "Disciple only knows where he comes from China, but he doesn't know at all when he is in Wuzhuang Temple."

Zhen Yuanzi nodded. In his opinion, it was normal for Zuo Xiaoyou not to know, but it would be strange if he knew. There are two problems that bother Zhen Yuanzi now. One is where the country of China is? And who is the world created by the sacred world? The other is this Zuo Xiaoyou, a mortal, why does there be no cause and effect and past and future?

As long as you are a person from the Three Realms, you should have a cause and effect with this world from the date of your birth. Even before you are born, you will be clear about the identity of reincarnation and reincarnation. It is recorded in the Underworld Life and Death Book, but Zuo Xiaoyou has no past and future at all, as if he appears in this world out of thin air. This makes Zhen Yuanzida confused, but he is also full of interest.

From a world that cannot be calculated, it is also vague. Such people almost do not exist in the three realms. Even if they exist, they are all old monsters at the level of saints. But Zuo Xiaoyou is just a mortal, but he is vague. This is very interesting.

"What have you practiced these days? Why are you so entangled?" Zhen Yuanzi asked.

"Going into a devil?" Zuo Xiaoyou was shocked, anxious, and asked in a daze: "Master, is your disciple really going into a devil?"

"No," Zhen Yuanzi said about his previous situation and said, "Do you feel that you can't help yourself? You are clearly thinking about something else, but your body is not in control."

Zuo Xiaoyou nodded repeatedly: "Master is right. A month ago, my disciple read a Tao Te Ching and a Nanhua Sutra, and then it became that way. But not long ago, my disciple suddenly felt a breath surrounding my disciple, and then my disciple returned to normal." After a pause, he saw Zhen Yuanzi smiling with a smile on his lips, and he couldn't help but feel happy and kneel down again: "Disciple, thank you for your help."

This time, Zhen Yuanzi did not stop him anymore, and let him kowtow three times respectfully, then smiled and said, "Get up, get up." After Zuo Xiaoyou got up, Zhen Yuanzi said, "Since you call me Master, then I will accept you as a disciple."

Zuo Xiaoyou was overjoyed and kowtowed again: "Thank you for taking in by Master. Master is here, please accept a prayer from your disciple."

"Hahaha, get up." Zhen Yuanzi was very happy, and she felt like she was getting a new toy...

...

The news that Zhen Yuanzi accepted Zuo Xiaoyou as his disciple was found out by Qingfeng Mingyue and other Taoist priests. Everyone was very excited and cried excitedly: "It's great. You can eat the meals you cook every day in the future."

...

"Master, you went to the Peach Banquet in Heaven this time, and didn't you bring us some fresh fruits?" After the apprenticeship ceremony, Zhen Yuanzi was complained by Qingfeng and Mingyue before he could teach Zuo Xiaoyou's Taoism.

Zhen Yuanzi laughed and scolded: "You two foodies, this peach banquet was messed up by a monkey named Sun Wukong. Master didn't even eat peaches, so how could there be fresh fruits to you?"

"Sun Wukong?" Zuo Xiaoyou's heart moved, but Qingfeng Mingyue was puzzled: "Master, who is Sun Wukong?"

"When it comes to Sun Wukong, it is the stone monkey born in a spirit stone that opens the world..." Zhen Yuanzi told about Sun Wukong's origin and said, "I don't know where Sun Wukong learned the skills of the Seventy-Two Transformations and Somersault Clouds? He also got the East China Sea Dinghai Dinghai Singer, and his magic power was extraordinary. This time, the Peach Banquet was not invited, and he destroyed the Peach Banquet with hatred. At this time, the Jade Emperor was afraid that he would not give up. He was not like being involved in those miscellaneous things, so he came back early."

"So that's it." Qingfeng and Mingyue frowned: "That's really hateful Sun Wukong. He was just a newcomer, but he was self-righteous and lawless. He would definitely not be able to go there this time."

Zhen Yuanzi smiled and said, "That's nothing to do with you and me."

At this time, Zuo Xiaoyou had a little more calculation: Sun Wukong destroyed the Peach Banquet, and it seemed that the big trouble in the Heavenly Palace was right in front of me. It’s hateful that I don’t have any ability at all now, and I don’t have the chance to take advantage of the situation.

Thinking of the peaches in the Heavenly Court and the Golden Pill of the Grand Shang Laojun, Zuo Xiaoyou felt greedy. He looked up at Zhen Yuanzi and felt relieved: Fortunately, there is also ginseng fruit. As long as I perform well, I believe that Master will not be stingy with ginseng fruit!

Since then, Zuo Xiaoyou has become Zhen Yuanzi's youngest disciple. Because Zuo Xiaoyou is a good player in growing vegetables or cooking, he is very satisfied with Wuzhuang Temple. He is also loved by the whole Temple, and he is constantly giving away all kinds of good things. Zhen Yuanzi also passed on his more profound foundation-building method, which made him not soar into the sky like Sun Wukong, but laid a more solid foundation than Sun Wukong and steadily improved.

After several months, a Heavenly Envoy came to Wuzhuang Temple and gave Zhen Yuanzi an invitation: "The demon monkey has been captured. Please ask Zhen Yuan Daxian to go to the Heavenly Court to go to the demon-killing banquet."

Zhenyuan Daxian received a post: "I'll be here after the angel told the Jade Emperor."

"You are welcome to be a big immortal, you must bring it to me."

After the envoy of the Heavenly Court left, Qingfeng and Mingyue came up: "Master, the Jade Emperor invites you to the banquet again!"

Zhen Yuanzi smiled and said, "Then Sun Wukong has been caught and is about to behead him. The Jade Emperor is going to kill the monkey to establish his authority. It's boring, boring."

"It's really boring." Qingfeng Mingyue also felt boring. What's so good about killing a monkey demon? It's better to eat a few more bites of food!

Zuo Xiaoyou's heart moved and asked, "Master, has the Jade Emperor invited you only to go? The disciple has never been to Heaven. Can you take your disciple to have a long experience?"

"Junior brother, are you going to the Heavenly Court?" Qingfeng said: "The Heavenly Court has nothing fun. There are so many rules, so I'm so annoyed."

"But fairy fruit, fairy wine is not bad." Mingyue wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth and said, "Just count, the last time she ate fairy fruit and drank fairy wine was more than 300 years ago."

One day in heaven, one year in the earth, one year in heaven, and three hundred and sixty-five years on the earth. The Queen Mother holds a Peach Banquet every year on her birthday, but it is once every three hundred and sixty-five years on the earth.

Sometimes Zuo Xiaoyou can’t understand why there is one day on the heavenly court and one year on the ground? This means that the gods in the sky have been practicing for one day, and the monsters on the ground have been practicing for one year. A gap of 365 times, aren’t these gods worried about being caught up with the monsters on the ground?

Could it be that the gods in the sky always yell to subdue demons and eliminate demons, but they are afraid that the demons on the ground will grow too quickly, so they can't wait to kill them in the bud?

"Although this is not a Peach Banquet, it is also a compensation." Zhen Yuanzi pondered for a moment and said, "In this way, Qingfeng Mingyue and Xiaoyou followed their teachers to the heaven for a banquet." After a pause, he explained to Qingfeng Mingyue: "When you come to heaven, you two take good care of your junior brother, don't let other naughty fairy children bully you."

"Master, don't worry, junior brother's safety is covered by us." Qingfeng Mingyue agreed happily, but the other disciples looked sad: "Junior brother, you are leaving, who will cook for us?"

"Hmm?" Zhen Yuanzi scolded, "Don't talk nonsense! Can't you learn how to cook with Xiaoyou if you wait? If Xiaoyou goes to seclusion and practices for several months, will you starve to death if you wait?"

Zhen Yuanzi rarely loses his temper, so every time he loses his temper, his disciples are very scared. Seeing dozens of senior brothers trembling, Zuo Xiaoyou hurriedly said: "Don't worry, senior brothers, I will prepare the rations for several months before leaving. You can store them in mustard bags and be eaten at any time."

When the Taoist priests heard this, they were overjoyed: It was still the junior brother who thought it was thoughtful. I was so kind, so we should not be stingy.

Thinking of this, dozens of senior brothers took a lot of good things to Zuo Xiaoyou. Zuo Xiaoyou received a bunch of gifts and spent three days steaming a bunch of vegetables and buns. After the dozens of senior brothers were divided, it was enough for each person to eat three months.

This time, the banquet in Heaven will only take a few hours to come back, and it will only take two or three months on earth. These vegetables and buns are enough to support these senior brothers to satisfy their desires when they are not around.

As long as nothing unexpected happens...
