Solution:

This chapter records a fortune-telling story. Is the wizard Ji Xian really that magical? Yes In the secular world, Ji Xian can predict his "life and death, longevity" by virtue of secular appearances and manners. The pot pointed out that the world "will believe in the Tao and die, and the husband will make people like you." The way of the world is "both literature and art", which is superficial and unrestrained, so it is easy to be penetrated by people.

Season pot four with salt, one at a time. It shows its "geography" for the first time, which blocks the emergence of life and death; The second time, it shows that it is "natural soil", full of vitality and a new look; The third time, he showed "too impulsive", without warning, without warning, and looked trance; The fourth time, I showed that I was "my Sect" (Tao), and I didn't look like it. The first three times can be called words, and the fourth time I entered the unknown field, so I was surprised to leave Jixian.

This fable makes people truly feel the mysterious situation of the Supreme Tao. It is not easy for laity to have "local culture" and "natural soil". If you reach "excessive", you will be even more complacent. The supreme way "has not opened my Sect", that is, it has not surpassed my avenue. The first three kinds of "depth" are only the projection of Tao. The "nine depths" mentioned in the pot is not a definite number, but it is intended to show that the Supreme Road is unpredictable and has endless "depths". It is also worth noting that "geography" and "heaven and earth" are extremely difficult for mortals, because mortals can't wander between heaven and earth and can't * * integrate them.
