Chapter 15: The Source of Ten Thousand Laws
Not long after leaving the city, the sun came out, and after the sun rose, there were more and more people on the official road, including people in the rivers and lakes who rode out of the city, and vegetable farmers and woodcutters who carried their burdens into the city.

Nanfeng originally wanted to ask what the Book of Heaven was, but it was inconvenient for people to talk too much, so he temporarily suppressed this thought, and led the blind man to hurry with his head bowed with the banner on his shoulder.
At this time, there is a rule for walking on the official road, men on the right, women on the left, and cars and horses in the middle, this is the rule set by the official family, but the rules are set for the common people, and those people in the rivers and lakes don't care about this set at all, and they can go how they want.
It's boring to walk with a boring head, you can't say secret things, you can always say something else, because there are many people in the rivers and lakes on the road, and the south wind asks about the things in the rivers and lakes.
The blind man has seen and heard a lot, knows the affairs of the rivers and lakes well, and there are many sects in the rivers and lakes, and there are hundreds of sects in the Wei country where the two of them are now, and the sects that come to participate in the festival are only part of them.
If a sect wants to gain a foothold in the rivers and lakes, it must have a way to survive, and relying on the number of people to win is the easiest way, but there is a problem with this method, that is, the imperial court does not allow it, because it is easy to rebel if there are many people, so the current number of sects is not very large, and the Sanqing Sect with the largest number of people is only a few thousand, and many small sects even have only one or two people.
Unable to win by the number of people, martial arts has become the foundation of a sect, most of the sects have one or several martial arts masters, these martial arts are derived from different places, most of them are derived from Taoism, there are also handed down from ancient times, and some are created by the head of the sect with outstanding talents, these martial arts can be roughly divided into five categories, namely aura internal strength, weapon techniques, hidden weapon organs, Qi Huang poison art, side door miscellaneous.
Each of these five types of martial arts is divided into many branches, taking internal strength as an example, according to the different cultivation meridians and qi training methods, it can be divided into many sub-categories such as solid foundation, fierceness, femininity, and horizontal practice.
Taking weapon techniques as an example, the eighteen weapons have different offensive and defensive routines, including various swordsmanship, knife techniques, marksmanship, and stick techniques, which are very varied.
As the name suggests, the hidden weapon mechanism is good at manufacturing and using hidden weapons, arranging organs, although these sects are weak in their own kung fu, but other sects do not dare to provoke them easily, as the saying goes, open guns are easy to dodge and dark arrows are difficult to prevent, and the hidden weapons made by these sects are strange and dangerous, which is difficult to prevent.
Qi Huang is what the people call the medical skills, Qi Bo and the Yellow Emperor are the ancestors of medical skills, so the medical skills are also called the art of Qi Huang. However, medical skills are not only used to save people, but also can be used to kill people, people who study medicine are familiar with all kinds of pharmacology, and it is easy to prepare poisons, these sects have a very high status in the rivers and lakes, people in the rivers and lakes fight and kill all day long, no one dares to guarantee that they will not be stabbed a few times one day, once they are injured, they always have to find someone to treat, in case they are poisoned and foaming at the mouth, they always have to find someone to solve it, so people in the rivers and lakes usually do not provoke the sect based on Qi Huang poison
There are more types of miscellaneous studies in the side door, thieves and snitches are side doors, digging graves and driving corpses are also side doors, and even those who open kilns and laugh are also classified as such, these sects hover between good and evil, infiltrating the market and temples, and are mostly despised by people in the Taoist sect and regarded as obscene.
All these sects are inextricably linked to each other, according to the blind man, these seemingly complex relationships and grievances and hatreds are all caused by interests in the final analysis, as the so-called bustle in the world is all for profit, the world is bustling for profit, fame, money, territory, disciples, and even women can all be classified as interests.
Although the blind man understands the rivers and lakes but looks down on the rivers and lakes, in his opinion the rivers and lakes are a field of grievances, the rivers and lakes are a big dye vat, fighting for small profits, and taking away all the mundane things.
At present, those sects with a relatively loud reputation on the rivers and lakes, most of the skills used come from Taoism, derived from Taoism, to practice internal strength, you must understand the meridian aura, to learn the art of Qi Huang, you can't put aside the five elements of yin and yang, and even the light body technique used by the snitch is also borrowed from the Taoist method of practicing qi.
The practice of aura can not only strengthen itself, but also enhance the power of martial arts tricks, because of this, all major sects attach great importance to the practice of aura, and the best qi practice methods are in the hands of the three sects of Yuqing, Taiqing, and Shangqing.
However, each sect of the Three Qing Dynasty attaches great importance to the cultivation methods it has, that is, the nine true scriptures, especially the three true scriptures of the Jushan Department, the Dongyuan Department, and the Taixuan Department have always been kept secret, even if they are the disciples of the sect, they can not all be taught, unless they are the disciples of the Zhangjiao who are qualified to participate, and the most excellent Taixuan Zhenjing can only be awarded by the next disciple selected by the Zhangjiao.
This practice of the Sanqing sects is not without the selfishness of hiding the selfishness of the book, but more for the sake of the common people in the world, the superior practice method can allow the practitioner to obtain a huge ability, they must ensure that this ability is not possessed by the person with the wrong mind, if the person with the wrong mind has practiced a profound spell, it is bound to cause extremely serious consequences, the light one kills and kills, for the harm of one party, the heavy one rebels against the yin and yang, and changes the dynasty.
In this case, the relationship between the sects on the rivers and lakes and the Sanqing sects is relatively delicate, on the one hand, there are requests for others, hoping to have a good relationship with the Sanqing sects and get guidance. On the other hand, they are resentful, resentful of the secrets of the three Qing sects.
"Master, are the first six of these nine true scriptures already known to those sects?" Nanfeng interjected and asked.
The blind man nodded, "Although I don't know all the details, it's not a secret. ”
"No wonder Long Yunzi talks about the Gao Xuan Sutra and no one listens to it. Nanfeng said with a smile, Long Yunzi preached the scriptures that day, except for the Dao Gu who changed the snake spirit and listened, the people in the rivers and lakes who attended the meeting were all bored.
At this point, Nanfeng suddenly remembered something, "By the way, Master, why are the first six scriptures of the Sanqing Sect the same, but the last three are different?"
"The three Qing patriarchs have their own comprehensions in the Book of Enlightenment, and the scriptures of cultivation that have been passed down are not the same. The blind man replied.
"Is the Book of Heaven ......"
The blind man nodded, "The nine pieces of tortoise shell are one, hiding the wonder of the universe, the principle of heaven and earth, and the source of all laws." ”
Nanfeng was stunned, and was stunned for a long time before he proposed, "Master, take a break." ”
The blind man nodded in agreement, and Nanfeng pulled him to the side of the road, and found a relatively flat bluestone to help him sit down.
"Master, since those scriptures are not secrets, why did that Dao Gu take the risk to listen to them?" asked Nanfeng.
"Although outsiders know the scriptures, they don't know the details, and they are mostly mixed, far less pure than what Long Yunzi said. The blind man said.
Nanfeng was about to ask again, when two tall horses galloped in from the north, and when they got closer, the horse that ran in front slowed down, and Le Ma was a girl of thirteen or fourteen years old, dressed in a short suit, and combed a few pigtails.
"Hey, blind grandpa, are you accurate in fortune-telling?" the girl asked with a smile pointing at the fortune-telling banner with a horsewhip.
"If you believe it, you won't believe it, but if you don't believe it, you won't be able to. The blind man said calmly.
The girl seemed to hear such words from a fortune teller for the first time, and was a little surprised, but just as she was stunned, the horse behind her, a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old, came to her seat.
"Senior sister, why did you stop?" the young man asked.
"Senior brother, I want to tell a hexagram. The girl said.
The man said, "This kind of blind person is mostly a liar, and I will ask my uncle to help you calculate it after returning to the mountain." ”
"Who the fuck are you talking about as a liar?" Nanfeng immediately scolded back.
The man didn't expect Nanfeng to dare to scold him, his female companion was beside him, he couldn't hold it on his face, and he shook his horsewhip and went to beat Nanfeng.
This person has practiced kung fu, his head is very good, the horsewhip is shaking, and he is straight to the door.
Seeing that he was about to smoke the south wind, the blind man grabbed the whip with his hand, and snatched the whip with a slight tremble of his wrist.
"Oh, old blind man. The young man turned over and dismounted, trying to draw his sword.
"What do you want to do?" said Nanfeng, clutching the blind man's wooden staff.
Seeing that the two were about to fight, the girl hurriedly dismounted and persuaded him to make peace, and the young man knew that the blind man was a master, but he was just pretending, and he listened to the persuasion, so he took the whip from the blind man's hand, followed the girl on the horse, and went away scolding.
"Master, you shouldn't have made a move just now. Nanfeng said, the blind man's makeover is naturally to hide his identity, and it is not wise to use martial arts.
"I can't let him hit you. The blind man said.
Nanfeng's heart warmed when he heard this, but he couldn't say words of gratitude, but his heart was moved.
"Master, I will try not to cause trouble in the future, and you should not take action lightly. The south wind helped the blind man to sit down again.
The blind man sat down and sighed, "Although you are mediocre in nature, you have a wise mind and a virtuous character, and if you are not poor or guilty, you will definitely be accepted as a vain......
