Chapter 517 Haiyan and Taiping
Ruan Wei bravely faced the thunder.
The long-lost yet familiar pain invaded the entire body along with the tiny thunder, and tingling, dull pain, and numbness also came along. Being struck by lightning is an eternal topic for cultivators, but no one can find a perfect answer.
To give an interesting description, a monk is a masochist who repeatedly chases after heavenly thunder and is repeatedly struck by it until he dies in pain, yet he still enjoys it.
Everyone has to survive the thunder tribulation.
Overcoming tribulation is a tempering and a training.
Of course, no one can deny the pain when thunder strikes.
No matter how tolerant a person is of pain, he or she cannot ignore this kind of suffering. The human body has never been suitable for the introduction of electricity. The limbs are paralyzed, the internal organs are burning, and every meridian in the body is weak and sore from the electricity. Both the mind and the body are clamoring to escape. This is the human instinct for survival.
Cultivation means going against the will of heaven.
Seeking immortality, seeking gain, seeking love and hate, all these desires violate certain natural laws.
Because it is a violation, it requires effort and difficulty.
Divine punishment was born for this purpose.
It controls the good and evil in the world and imposes punishment according to individual karma. This is a warning from nature and also a test from those in higher powers.
Success means life, failure means death.
This is the original meaning of the establishment of heavenly thunder. Since one wants to practice Taoism against the will of heaven, there will naturally be gains and losses while striving for more benefits. The punishment for failure is so cruel.
Ruan Wei understood very well.
I have always supported this kind of cruelty.
Humans are selfish species who cannot be moved to prostrate themselves by pure kindness. They will never follow the rules just because of the other party's selfless and generous dedication. If you want people to follow the rules, you must establish rewards and punishments behind the rules.
The emotion of fear is always greater than the momentary emotion.
Those who don't want to follow the rules have no need to fit in.
For example, Yu Qunqing.
Ruan Wei is also a human being, so she also needs to be bound by rewards and punishments. She needs to exist as a human being, not a beast that acts only on instinct.
Before facing a powerful thunderbolt.
Ruan Wei had seriously thought about what he should do for the Penglai Immortal Sect, Tongzhou, and the world of cultivation, and to what extent he could achieve it.
In the end, Ruan Wei discovered it calmly.
She can't do anything now.
Although the Heavenly Dao and the Six Paths had helped her, and the Heavenly Punishment seemed neutral, from Ruan Wei's perspective, the three of them were quite friendly.
But after all, they are not saints from the world of cultivation.
How can you empathize with others if you have not experienced the world?
Ruan Wei didn't want to be a savior, and she wasn't born to be one, but she would never willingly hand over her own life, or the life of those she cared about, to others.
She must take control of her own destiny.
There must be choices, self, and future destiny.
If the prerequisite for controlling one's own destiny is to become an immortal, a saint, or something that is superior to others, then Ruan Wei will definitely do it. She will rush to the highest point without hesitation.
Observe the world and reflect on yourself.
Ruan Wei wants to live.
I want to live a stable and free life without any constraints.
She even wants all the creatures in the world to live like her!
From the very beginning.
When she returned to the starting point, she heard the words of the salvation system, also known as Zhu Zhao, which represented her own will -
Therefore, the livelihoods of all people in the world can be stable and peaceful, and all humans, ghosts, immortals, Buddhas and Taoists can be praised as peaceful.
All things in the world have spirits, and with spirits come emotions, and with emotions come wishes.
Ruan Wei is definitely not a savior.
She never intended to carry the lives of all the people on her shoulders, nor did she think that she alone could shoulder the responsibility of such a vast world of cultivation.
She just.
There is a very simple vision:
"The elderly shall have a place to live, the strong shall have a place to work, the young shall have a place to grow, and the poor, the widowed, the orphaned, the lonely, and the disabled shall all be provided for."
All people in the world have a way to survive, and humans, ghosts, immortals and Buddhas can practice Taoism.
This is what the Penglai Immortal Sect has been doing since its founding. This is the hidden code in the Penglai Immortal Sect's motto. This is the little vision in the heart of every Penglai disciple.
It is also the vision of the common people.
To realize such a vision requires strong strength, extremely high talent, and more importantly, a firm determination. To realize the vision, it only requires these three things that Ruan Wei never lacks.
So, she was willing to give it a try.
Ruan Wei is willing to give it a try for the sake of common people. She is not a common person, but she is willing to give it a try.
Not just her.
Every generation of disciples of the Penglai Immortal Sect is willing to do so. The Tongzhou geniuses, the innate monsters, and even the demons will also be willing to do so after knowing the truth.
Ruan Wei's world is not big.
When she was young, she only had her father and brother.
After arriving in Penglai, she slowly brought her teachers and fellow disciples of the Penglai Immortal Sect under her wing.
When she participated in the Ten Directions Competition, she couldn't bear to see the unexplained deaths and injuries of her fellow direct descendants with whom she had spoken.
Then came the Wang Family Incident and the Sword Taken in the Wilderness... Ruan Wei suddenly realized that witnessing the suffering of others was also such a heart-wrenching thing. She seemed to be more able to sympathize with the suffering of others.
This is something that priests cannot do.
So the priest could not survive.
But why can Ruan Wei do it?
She was born with seven smart eyes but lacked a heart, so she had difficulty understanding human nature and resolving love and hate.
But in this life.
Under the influence of the heaven and him, Ruan Wei first fell into the pain of love. She began to actively understand the origin of love. In her contacts with different people, Ruan Wei more clearly perceived the different meanings represented by different emotions. She gradually changed from being ruthless to being affectionate.
This is Ruan Wei's inevitable growth.
This is also a drawback that priests cannot make up for.
Even if she has the qualifications to become a saint, in the end, the priest will not become a saint.
If you don’t understand emotions, how can you talk about thoughts? If you don’t understand love and hate, how can you have mercy on the world?
This does not mean that love is the only thing in the world.
only.
Looking at the past, future and present, there is always emotion in people’s most precious souls, including the five poisons, six desires, seven emotions, eight sufferings, nine difficulties and ten disasters. People are complicated, people are difficult to understand, people are such strange and tiny creatures. How can you understand people if you don’t experience them?
Heaven has put in a lot of thought.
It just gave Ruan Wei a chance to experience it.
At the very beginning, Tiandao ordered Liudao to bring Ruan Wei's soul into the human world and give her a new dream, in an attempt to let Ruan Wei deeply understand the human nature in the human world where emotions are more obvious and rich.
The result cannot be said to be a complete failure.
Ruan Wei was more or less influenced by the real world, but she was more resistant to it because her soul did not recognize the real world as her hometown.
Until returning to the world of cultivation.
Her soul returned to a place of peace, and her gradually recovering emotions found an outlet for release, so she slowly woke up and slowly filled the void in her heart.
Where the heart is at peace is home.
-
Countless deep purple thunders were dancing and raging above this small green hill, and a white figure was facing the sky between the gaps between the clouds and the mountains.
Crazy thunder, tiny human beings.
There seems to be no way out, all the ways to survive are blocked.
The area affected by the thunder tribulation was so wide that the onlookers were persuaded by the people from the ten major sects to return to the border city to await the outcome.
It was easy to persuade them to leave, because those who loved Ruan Wei the most, such as the teachers and commanders of Penglai Immortal Sect, were all on the battlefield and they didn't know Ruan Wei was here.
But Ruan Ruanzhi refused to leave.
He stood stubbornly beside the green hill, wanting to wait, wait for the sister whom he had carried up the mountain himself, wait for the sister who had finally survived.
I want to wait for her to come down the mountain again.
Wanting to wait for her to survive again.
Ruan Ruanzhi is also a very stubborn person, and his words always reach their destination in a roundabout way.
Waiting is like begging.
If you replace "wait" with "ask", everything will work.
Ruan Ruanzhi couldn't remember how long it had been since he had seen Ruan Wei's back. He seemed to always leave before Ruan Wei, and he seemed to be the one who stubbornly left his back to Ruan Wei.
Because he was afraid of separation, Ruan Ruanzhi made up his mind and went down the mountain on his own initiative, leaving Ruan Wei alone in Penglai.
Because he couldn't survive alone, Ruan Ruanzhi stubbornly took the still-living Ruan Wei to Penglai, begging Ruan Wei to survive.
Because she felt guilty, Ruan Ruanzhi presented everything she thought was beautiful to Ruan Wei to make her laugh and cheer her up.
Most people would think Ruan Wei is paranoid.
But after thinking about it, Ruan Ruanzhi finally realized that it was obviously him who was stubborn, paranoid, and demanding.
When Penglai asked for help, Ruan Ruanzhi forced Ruan Wei to go up the mountain.
It was Nguyen Trang who wanted Nguyen Wei to live.
That's why Ruan Wei was desperate to break through, to be promoted, and to make a million efforts to fight for her life with the Heart-Eating Gu, because she had been very obedient and well-behaved since she was a child, and she would do everything she promised to Ruan Ruanzhi.
Ruan Ruanzhi knew Ruan Wei.
Ignoring the dissuasion of his personal guards, Ruan Ruanzhi once again stubbornly waited at the foot of the mountain, his hands hanging by his side trembling.
Ruan Ruanzhi's mind had already gone blank.
Faced with such unprecedented and terrifying power of thunder, a thunder tribulation that even cultivators who have already reached the fusion stage can hardly boast of being able to survive, few people can remain dazed.
Ruan Hongzhi remained silent. He stared intently at the girl in mid-air and prayed in his heart once again—
Weiwei.
Let’s go up the mountain again.
Weiwei.
Survive once again.
