Taoist Changmei once told him that regularly reviewing and reciting "Daoxuan Ganying Pian" would help him to condense his soul, comprehend the mysteries of heaven and earth, and be beneficial to his understanding of the way of heaven.
When Wu Daosheng opened the first page, he was attracted by the big word "Tao". He seemed to be pulled into an extremely mysterious world. He began to recite the scriptures with full concentration, forgetting everything outside and immersed in the Tao.
"At the beginning of the universe, chaos was undivided, formless and shapeless, silent and desolate. Tao gave birth to one, one gave birth to two, two gave birth to three, and three gave birth to all things. Myriad things are in abundance, mysterious and profound, the door to all wonders..."
As he recited the scriptures, a mysterious Daoist rhyme emerged from his body, which made people's minds suddenly enlightened, as if the truth of the Dao was ringing like a bell in their hearts.
At this time, eight villagers from Li Village were walking towards the house, holding many renovation tools, hammers, saws and ladders. The one leading them was Uncle Li, who was holding a mud bucket and a shovel.
Li Daqiang followed beside him, pushing a mud bucket cart, muttering, "Uncle Li, are you sure you didn't lie to us? Was it really that man who saved us that night?"
Uncle Li was annoyed by his questions and said, "How many times have I told you that he saved us? If you don't want to work, get out of here and stop whining."
"I'm a little confused. Look at what you said..." Li Daqiang curled his lips.
"Aqiang, if you don't want to help with the renovation, just push the car to me and do whatever you want." Li Tongbing was also a little annoyed with this guy. He was dragging his feet when working and looked very reluctant.
"Dabing, what do you mean? Is it your turn to speak?"
Li Daqiang didn't dare to talk back to Uncle Li, but why did Li Tongbing think he was in the way? "You're just running errands, what's so great about that?"
Uncle Li saw the two of them arguing again and shouted impatiently, "You two cowards, shut up! If you keep arguing, you'll all go back!"
Li Daqiang and Li Tongbing didn't dare to say anything and followed them up. Ever since the last incident, the two men had disliked each other. Li Daqiang blamed Li Tongbing for not helping his brother and watching him being swallowed by the tentacle monster. Li Tongbing mocked him for being ruthless and not even taking care of his brother.
When the eight people saw the simple house, they hurried up to it. Uncle Li saw that the door of the house was open and knew that Li Xuefei and the others had returned. He reminded them to be polite when speaking and not to offend the real people.
Li Daqiang complained again, "It sounds so real, who knows if it's a scam!"
Uncle Li glanced over with a cold gaze, "You bastard, if you keep talking nonsense, get out of here. Stop complaining here. And listen to me, when you meet people later, be respectful."
When they reached the front yard, they suddenly stopped. A Buddhist chanting sounded in their ears, just like rain suddenly hitting dry land. The empty sound cleansed their souls.
Everyone just listened to the sound of the great Dao quietly, and slowly calmed down the anxiety they had felt for many days. Even Li Daqiang, a troublemaker, became very quiet at this moment.
"Work at sunrise and rest at sunset, following the ways of nature and adapting to the changes of yin and yang. The four seasons change, cold comes and heat goes, spring brings life, summer grows, autumn brings harvest, winter hides. Observe the rhythm of heaven and earth and understand the cycle of life and death."
When Wu Daosheng recited this passage in the language of the cultivation world, an image suddenly appeared in the eyes of Uncle Li and the others: a young man who worked from sunrise to sunset every day, never complaining about the hardships of the world, day after day, year after year, full of hope for life, married and had children, and was supported by his children until he was old. He finally died of old age, and his children still remembered his kindness.
Let go of the intrigues and trivialities and return to hard work. Support your parents and raise your children. Perhaps this is the true meaning of life.
These villagers were moved by the scriptures of Daoxuan Ganyingpian, and their minds were deeply attracted by the sound of recitation. They all reflected on their own mistakes.
Each of them had different expressions, some regretful, some sad, some smiling, and some looking painful.
"Sitting quietly among the pines and rocks, listening to the wind sing, watching the clouds roll, feeling the breath of heaven and earth, understanding the essence of the sun and moon. The sky is clear and the earth is peaceful, the human heart and mind are united, the essence, energy and spirit are united, one becomes one with the Tao and flows with virtue."
As Wu Daosheng finished reading this passage, Uncle Li and the others instantly felt their souls sublime, and all their past obsessions were gently let go, as if the whole world was at peace.
After about ten minutes, the sound of reciting scriptures in the room stopped. Uncle Li and the other eight people were still savoring the chant. It seemed that after listening for a long time, their breathing became smoother and the root causes of their illness were alleviated.
After Wu Daosheng finished reciting, he walked out. When he saw Uncle Li and the others, he was stunned for a moment, especially since they were holding tools in their hands. He looked at Uncle Li and took a step forward. "Uncle Li, what are you doing?"
Uncle Li and the others finally realized what was happening. They also walked over and bowed to Wu Daosheng. "Little brother, this is what happened. We wanted to repay you for saving our lives. After much thought, we felt that a few gold coins wouldn't be enough to thank you for saving our lives, so we led everyone to renovate your house."
Wu Daosheng quickly returned the gift, "How can this be so embarrassing? I can't accept a reward without doing anything! Since I've already given you a thank you gift, we should be even. This is unacceptable."
Uncle Li thought for a moment and still insisted, "How about we help you renovate the house, and you let us listen to your chanting every day?"
After listening to the scriptures, he felt as light as a swallow, and his body was much lighter than before. It was unbelievable!
The other seven people looked at Wu Daosheng with burning eyes, their desire was self-evident.
Wu Daosheng looked at the pleading expressions on everyone's faces and readily agreed. If these villagers have a heart for good, why not do it!
So, he woke up Li Xuefei and accompanied him to the mountain to practice meditation, and asked Uncle Li and others to renovate the house.
But is the bloody evil aura that he sensed on the mountain before still there?
