Chapter 39: Chapter 37 Observing Dao Scripture, The Dao Differs_3
"Sigh!"
Upon hearing this, the smile on Celestial Master's face became somewhat unnatural, and he sighed: "Today, when coming down from the mountain top, I saw that young man with exceptional demeanor at a glance. I immediately went to ask if the young man had the heart for cultivation and wished to join Daoism... but alas, it is a pity!"
While speaking, he couldn't help but shake his head and mutter, "Different paths, different paths, the boy's gentle refusal is full of Dao intent, truly a pity!"
Cai Lao: ?
He didn't expect Celestial Master to give Lin Beichen such a high evaluation. He couldn't help but look over again.
But the person had long since disappeared.
But at this moment...
The impression of Lin Beichen in his mind became even deeper!
...
On the other side.
Lin Beichen soon took the cable car to return, looking at the scenery outside the cable car, his mental realm was completely different from when he came.
When he came, his heart was full of anxiety and urgency, with no time to care about the beautiful scenery outside the window.
But at this moment, his heart was calm and peaceful, not anxious nor impatient, taking in all the scenery and enjoying the leisurely time.
"This trip is not just about exploring..."
"It's also about relaxing and unwinding!"
"Failing to master Thunder Skill, there are still opportunities in the future, there is no need to disrupt the rhythm or spoil the essence of life because of this."
Soon, the cable car reached the end.
Lin Beichen got off the cable car.
Just about to step out of the mountain gate of Dragon Tiger Mountain.
Suddenly!
He saw...
At the bottom center of the mountain gate, there was a square stone tablet, and next to it was a bright red flag!
"What is this?"
Lin Beichen curiously walked over and looked at the stone tablet.
On it was engraved with lines of text.
The beginning was - "Huaxia Religious Report"
Then there was the content - "As the only native religion of Huaxia, Daoism is the carrier of Huaxia's traditional culture, do not blindly believe!"
Lin Beichen: ...
With the progress of science and technology, the theory of awakening the heavenly secrets was regarded as metaphysics and gradually marginalized and considered superstitious. Even later generations with exceptional perception found it difficult to achieve enlightenment, only learning from the thoughts of predecessors, unable to make progress, even being assimilated by scientific thought.
Isn't Celestial Master the same?
As the most profound Dao practitioner, he talks about believing in science.
At this moment, his heart was filled with mixed feelings, not knowing what to feel.
"In this world, there is no cultivation method, nor is there Thunder Skill."
"But because of me..."
"This world should have 'skills'!"
Regretfully shook his head, but felt ambitious again. frёeωebɳovel.com
Lin Beichen's mental realm underwent a tremendous transformation, then confidently stepped out of the mountain gate of Dragon Tiger Mountain, heading towards the real world to explore the truth!
...
On the bus.
Lin Beichen, having nothing to do, finally took out the phone that he hadn't used throughout the journey, planning to reassure his parents. Without even unlocking it, he saw the screen filled with numerous message boxes.
All of them were sent by Zheng Xia!
["Son, I just looked it up. Why did all those places you visited have thunderstorms on the same day? Should you refund the tickets and plan again?"]
["Son, have you reached Dragon Tiger Mountain? Is the rain heavy?"]
["Are you having fun?"]
[...]
Lin Beichen carefully read each message. Although they were simple concerns, each one touched his heart. He could even imagine his mother nagging all this.
["Mom, I'm having a great time, just checked my phone!"]
["Yes, as expected of my mom, observing so keenly. I see it too; it's all thunderstorm days, I'll study this later!"]
[...]
While Lin Beichen was sending messages, Zheng Xia immediately replied.
Mother and son chatted back and forth, and soon the bus arrived at the airport.
Lin Beichen briefly bid farewell to his mom and got on the plane, flying to his next travel destination.
But unfortunately...
It wasn't as smooth as the first stop at Dragon Tiger Mountain. After arriving at the destination, the originally forecasted thunderstorm turned into a sunny day, failing to achieve any enlightenment.
Moreover...
Not only was the second stop like this, but similar situations kept happening in subsequent travels.
Of course, it wasn't the case for every stop.
But...
Even encountering thunderstorms, there was still no progress in enlightenment.
However, luckily Lin Beichen's mental realm improved, not becoming impatient due to this, actively seeking other ways to attempt enlightenment, and at the same time enjoying the journey.
Today, in Hang City.
At Four Seasons Hotel.
Lin Beichen lay on the bed.
Looking at the night sky outside the window, the clouds were thin, with no stars visible.
With an expectant smile on his face, he murmured: "Looks like tomorrow will definitely be a heavy thunderstorm as the weather forecast says. Witnessing the tides in this weather... I wonder if I'll achieve any enlightenment?"
