Gu Wuyou, who has been wandering around the world for many years, has a profound understanding of a truth.

What may seem insignificant to outsiders may be extremely serious to the person involved. You are not me, and you cannot understand how I felt at that time, so why should you ask me to laugh away my grudges?

Lu Xuan once said something that Gu Wuyou thought was very profound——

The butt determines the head.

For example, Gu Wuyou took his dying master back to the mountain and tried his best to deceive and kidnap him along the way. He might be forgiven for cheating on others, but what about stealing other people's donkeys and horses? You must know that he had no ability to investigate the other person's net worth before stealing.

To be honest, with Gu Wuyou's ability, he couldn't steal anything from a wealthy family.

For an ordinary family, donkeys and horses are important "fixed assets". If they are stolen by Gu Wuyou, will his loss be great? He might not be able to survive, or even his family will be destroyed. For the owner, Gu Wuyou

Absolutely heinous.

But if Gu Wuyou was asked to choose again, what would he do?

Unless he knew for sure the owner's tragic fate, Gu Wuyou would still steal it. Because to him at that time, nothing was more important than fulfilling the old Taoist's last wish.

The so-called good and evil depends on the position.

Therefore, Gu Wuyou agreed with Ying Ying. It didn't matter at all what "Unlucky Golden Pill" Wen Zi had done to make Ying Ying hate her to this day. As long as she couldn't let go and had the ability to retaliate, she could do it.

Yingying asked: "Do you know why I am willing to help you?"

Gu Wuyou shook his head.

"Long Tao reminds me of Wen Zi back then. They are the same thing. Bullying people is not because they dislike you, but just for fun." Ying Ying said, "I can tell you for sure that if you compromise,

If you don't resist, he will only get worse and eventually break through your bottom line."

Gu Wuyou was convinced: "Senior Sister is wise."

"Back then, I wasn't as smart as you. I couldn't fool people, and I didn't know how to borrow help. I could only cry stupidly. I missed home? Haha, I admit that I was really homesick at that time, but Chaoyue was also homesick. You see.

Does she cry all day long?"

Gu Wuyou suddenly said: "So you are actually aggrieved."

"When a teenage child is far away from his family and is bullied, is it wrong to first seek shelter from his parents?"

Gu Wuyou shook his head and sighed.

To be honest, it was hard for him to imagine that Ying Ying also missed her parents. In Gu Wuyou's impression, Ying Ying was a typical monk, indifferent to family affection, disdainful of ordinary people, and considered the sect as his home.

"It's a pity that my parents can't protect me." Ying Ying smiled, "As a monk, I have to do everything on my own. It's unrealistic to expect anyone else. Once I understand this truth, I will have no illusions and focus on cultivation."

Gu Wuyou disagreed: "There is always friendship between the same disciples. People like Long Tao are in the minority after all."

"What a big mistake!" Yingying interrupted him, "In a world that advocates competition, how can there be true friendship? If you fall behind, you will be beaten. If you don't bully you, it's just disdain. Your dignity rests on the character of others.

, completely unreliable.”

"What about Master? He is quite good to his disciples."

"I admit that Master has a good temper. A good temper does not mean that he treats his disciples as children, let alone treating them equally. Lu Xuan is a clear proof. Innate spiritual bodies are precious, and Master has repeatedly made exceptions for him. Take me as an example, I am taught by Master.

Respect him, make him the chief disciple, and have the highest cultivation level is the key."

Gu Wuyou remained silent.

Yingying's words are obviously too extreme, but it cannot be said to be completely unreasonable.

The problem is that Gu Wuyou's established views make it difficult for him to accept this "abnormal" relationship between fellow disciples and master-disciple.

Especially if you have a good impression of Yuqing.

Among them, the most difficult thing for Gu Wuyou to understand is the competition mechanism. Why do fellow sects have to compete? Again, monks have no natural enemies, and there is no fundamental conflict between sects. Even if you have a bunch of super experts, you can fight them all

Invincible in the world, so what?

Well, competition is a biological instinct. In secular family competition, people can't help but compete for success even when growing crops.

But although monks are not Taoists, they are still beyond the world.

Gu Wuyou: "Has no one thought about reform?"

Ying Ying was startled: "Change? Change what?"

"Give up the competition mechanism and let everyone practice happily."

"Then what's the point of living?" Ying Ying said happily, "Doing nothing, immersing yourself in cultivation, and finally turning into a handful of loess, what's the difference between not practicing?"

"Well, you are basically in this state now, right?"

Monks are not indifferent to fame and wealth, but the influence of cultivation will not change due to the so-called integration into the secular world. The higher the cultivation level, the weaker the desire. In the end, just like the Taoist priests in the past, they became deaf and deaf to what is happening outside the window.

.

"You guys? You're a monk too, okay." Yingying rolled her eyes, "That's why we need to compete. There's nothing wrong with monks competing against each other."

Gu Wuyou spread his hands: "Okay, you're right."

The question is, is Yingying talking to herself just to elaborate on these views?

Ying Ying said: "Whether it is a layman or a monk, all life in this world is about saving face. I work hard to cultivate and become the head master sister for the sake of face. To take revenge on Wen Zi, to put it bluntly, it is also a matter of face. The only regret is that I want to take revenge on that person.

Bastard, I'm being accused of being narrow-minded and unreliable behind my back."

Gu Wuyou tentatively said: "Whoever dares to speak against you, just do it to him."

Ying Ying glared: "They have no grudge against me."

Gu Wuyou secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although this guy's mind isn't broad enough, he still has a clear mind.

Ying Ying: "I always thought that being said to be small-minded was one of the unavoidable side effects of carrying out revenge. Until today..."

She looked at Gu Wuyou expectantly: "Obviously, experience in the world is not useless. Your methods opened my eyes. I helped you teach Long Tao a lesson. You must repay the favor and help me restore my image.

Be a reliable senior sister!”

Only then did Gu Wuyou understand what Yingying meant.

He spread his hands and said: "If I can help you, I won't refuse. But this is too difficult. I'm afraid I don't have the ability."

"I don't care, you have to help." Ying Ying waved her hand arrogantly, "If you don't help me, it's like becoming a grudge against me. You know the consequences."

"Isn't this a bit unreasonable?"

"I am the senior sister in charge, and what I say is the truth."

"Okay." Gu Wuyou smiled bitterly, "You have personally demonstrated the point you just made. Your dignity cannot be placed on the character of others."

"As long as you understand." Yingying said proudly.

"Then why should I try reluctantly?" Gu Wuyou muttered, "First of all, I can't guarantee success. Secondly, if you really want to restore your image, you must listen to me in everything, otherwise you will be blamed for failure.

You carry it yourself."

Ying Ying: "If you don't succeed, you can clean the toilet."

Gu Wuyou: "..."

"Tell me, what do you want to do?"

"Well, let's start by forgiving Senior Brother Wenzi."

"What?" Yingying immediately became anxious, "Impossible!"

Gu Wuyou said with an old-fashioned look: "Well, as the saying goes, it is better to dissolve enemies than to make enemies. When we meet, the grudges will disappear with a smile. Why should Senior Sister hold such a grudge?"

"Nonsense, you just took revenge on others, how do you have the qualifications... Why, you want to play a conspiracy?"

"Wrong, it's a ploy. Come here."

…

That night, Gu Wuyou meditated as usual. Late at night, he slowly opened his eyes with a faint smile on his face.

"It turns out that this is what foundation building is all about..."

Facts have proved that the effect of self-brainwashing is really not very good. The peace of mind after successfully carrying out revenge is the true peace. Perhaps this is the legendary understanding of thoughts. In short, Gu Wuyou completed the foundation tonight and entered the realm of Qi training!

To be honest, he is not as good as Ying Ying, the latter is really strong.

You know, back then, Yingying had to first achieve achievements and surpass her "enemies" before taking revenge one by one - yes, there was more than one unlucky guy who offended Yingying.

Of course, Wenzi offended her the most and had the worst outcome.

Gu Wuyou was actually very excited.

The reason why he just smiled indifferently was because he had just woken up from trance, and the state of indifference during cultivation still affected him. This also explains why cultivation will gradually change a person's personality, making him become desireless and undemanding.

Just building the foundation is just the beginning for the monks.

Gu Wuyou's achievements are already beyond those of his predecessors!

Of course, it is mainly symbolic. As the first step in cultivation, there is almost no change in the strength of a cultivator after establishing the foundation.

So what exactly is foundation building?

Most of the descriptions of cultivation in film, television and novels are about sitting cross-legged and meditating to "transport the true energy." This is indeed very close to the real situation. Art comes from reality.
