Chapter 76: The Golden City (1)
Zhang Fengnian's way of accepting the Lingtai is very simple.
He asked these disciples, with him as the center of the circle, and two steps less than one millimeter as the distance, to form a circle, and then each of them sat quietly and transformed. This ensured that as long as these people's spiritual platforms really reached four steps in diameter, then he must be standing within the range of everyone's spiritual platforms.
If a person with high cultivation stands within the range of his person's spiritual platform, he will sense the other person's divine form.
But Liu Xiaohua found that her spiritual platform was empty.
The water mirror, which used to be thick, is now thin and small. And the surface of the water is filled with a layer of strange colors. Like an oily glow on an insect carapace.
Liu Xiaohua tried to reach for the water mirror.
The water surface of the water mirror was very difficult to protrude in her direction, but the oil slick seemed to be very powerful, and it restrained the water mirror so tightly that the water mirror and Ben could not break through its barrier to contact Liu Xiaohua. The water mirror encountered this obstacle, and instinctively struggled violently, and the liquid twisted and trembled.
But the oil slick was indifferent.
Liu Xiaohua took a step back and carefully observed the oil slick.
Aside from the color, it looks no different from the oil slick on the surface of the water when washing dishes.
But it seems to have appeared out of thin air, and Liu Xiaohua doesn't know when it was here, nor how it came about, let alone whether it is normal for a Lingtai entity to undergo this kind of transformation.
She couldn't tell if the water mirror had been attacked in some way, or if it was itself an advanced process.
After all, there are thousands of people, and there are thousands of spiritual platforms. There is no definite number for anyone.
Now that the water mirror has become like this, she doesn't dare to forcibly contact it to transform her god form for a while. I had to temporarily withdraw from the space of the water mirror.
At this time, the other disciples had already completed the meditation and were all waiting for Zhang Fengnian's reply. They didn't think that anyone failed to meet the requirements, and eagerly asked: "Master Bozu, can you teach us the magic now!" "Speaking of the word magic, the saliva of a few people with vegetables on their faces is about to flow out. Now in their minds, magic and flesh are one.
Zhang Fengnian didn't answer, but frowned slightly and looked at Liu Xiaohua.
Liu Xiaohua was under his gaze, like a thorn in his back, embarrassed and uneasy. Previously, Liu Xiaohua was very sure that the scope of her spiritual platform absolutely met the requirements.
But now it's not so certain.
Although she didn't want a group of people to be unable to do so because of herself, she didn't want to tell lies. When she was about to speak, Cheng Zhengzhi suddenly preemptively said, "Isn't the spiritual platform of the little uncle and ancestor not sensed?" ”
When the tower was measured before, the stone was also unmoving. This matter is known to everyone else here except Linglong. So no one thinks it's strange. It is a fact that it cannot be detected, but it is also a fact that Liu Xiaohua can pop a white ball. There is no doubt that there is anything wrong with her altar.
"Everything we do in our cultivation is all under the guidance of our little uncle, and it is impossible for our little uncle to be slower than us!! You can't let us eat meat just because you can't find it, Uncle Master! He Wen'er hurriedly said, "Master Bozu, you can teach it quickly!" Please. ”
Sure enough, Zhang Fengnian no longer dwelled on this matter and taught the technique.
But Liu Xiaohua listened to his explanation, but on the other hand, she felt weak.
Zhang Fengnian taught the most basic spirit control.
To put it simply, it is to treat the spirit that has already belonged to itself as a phantom limb and drive it to fulfill its own commands.
This technique is the basis of a qiē technique.
For a monk who has attained high cultivation, it can be accomplished with just one thought. But this doesn't mean that it's easy, because they think it's simple, it's the result of countless exercises, and when you're just starting out, it's quite complicated.
First of all, it is necessary to get rid of distracting thoughts and communicate with the spirit platform, obtain the spirit from the spirit platform, and then release these spirits into the air, let them form a whole, and then command these spirits to complete the instructions.
The whole process requires considerable attention.
And it must be maintained at all times, from the spiritual platform to oneself and then to the spirit, otherwise, as long as one mind wanders, these hard-collected spirits will lose their restraint, and they will dissipate in an instant, and become wild and run away without a trace.
On the contrary, the more successfully these spirits are used, the more cohesive they become, the less they dissipate, and the more comfortable they are to use. Even some monks with advanced cultivation can also make spirits form entities at any time and become spirit beasts.
After Zhang Fengnian finished explaining, Zhou Qing was puzzled and asked: "Isn't there a formula or something?" ”
"What's the mantra?" Zhang Fengnian frowned.
Linglong hurriedly said, "Uncle Master, I looked at some monks, and they had to use their spells first. For example, to change into a cloud, for example, to summon the spirit sword, each has its own formula. Why does the master only talk about the method, but not the mantra? ”
"Oh." Zhang Fengnian remembered it at this time, and said casually: "The lower-level monks have this habit, I haven't used it for a long time, and I forgot about it for a while." Then remember to make up a mantra for yourself. ”
"Huh?!" Cheng Zhengzhi was stunned, and said with a bitter face: "Your Excellency!" How can I make up my own formula! Aren't you entertaining us? ”
"When cultivating to be low and unfamiliar with spiritual control, it is natural to need a sentence to associate it with the corresponding spiritual control technique. Recite the same mantra all the time when you practice a certain mantra, and over time, and the more you practice, the spirit will immediately understand your intentions when you say it. So remember, don't use common words as mantras. It must be unique and not confused with anything else. The spiritual platform is one with people, but it lacks wisdom, and if you are confused, you will not understand your intentions. After he finished speaking, he waved his hand, "Just make up an exercise." He didn't bother to care about them, and when he turned around, he planned to go back to the tent.
Liu Xiaohua hesitated for a moment, and hurriedly caught up, "Senior brother!" ”
Zhang Fengnian stopped his steps and turned back.
"My Lingtai, it seems that something is wrong." Liu Xiaohua told Zhang Fengnian about the strangeness of her water mirror. After finishing speaking, it was really as if I had moved a big stone in my heart.
Zhang Fengnian listened, pondered for a while, and said: "The growth of Lingtai is mostly due to the change of body shape from small to large, from thick to fine. But I didn't hear of any of them having changed their traits. ”
After speaking, he let out a long sigh and said: "In this world, there are thousands of avenues, and the number of spiritual platforms is like the vast starry sky. We people, in front of the heaven and earth spirits, are as small as ants. Even if you are a monk with advanced cultivation, you don't know everything. And in the matter of the Lingtai, even the immortals of all walks of life can only grope for it on their own. All the teachers can teach their disciples is the method of practice and the little experience they have. ”
Liu Xiaohua couldn't help but feel disappointed. I also feel even more that the path of cultivation is difficult.
In many cases, it is not the hard work of cultivation, but the fact that everyone walks on their own path in the dark, and they don't know when they will step on the air.
Presumably, it is precisely because of this that so many monks have died.
She couldn't help but wonder, why are everyone's spiritual platforms different? What determines what the altar looks like?
But if you use Zhang Fengnian's words, it must be the power of Heavenly Dao.
But she felt that there must be a reason for this. In her mind, everything in the world should have a reason. All the answers are somewhere, they just haven't been discovered yet.
These questions and thirst for answers made Liu Xiaohua's little heart full of motivation again. Because one day, she will solve these doubts one by one.
Zhang Fengnian stretched out his hand and patted Liu Xiaohua's head, reassuring her and said, "As their elder, you are still young, but you already know how to solve the doubts of the juniors, which has made the senior brother happy." I reported what happened recently to Master, and Master was very happy. Master said, "You are a good boy." You wrote a letter and put it on the table but didn't send it, and Master sent it for you. ”
"Really!!" Liu Xiaohua's eyes lit up, and she felt that the master was good to herself! Grabbing Zhang Fengnian's sleeve, he eagerly asked about the master's current situation.
Master, how are you feeling better? Did Master use the medicine well? Did Master feel lonely and lonely? She said that she wanted to bring fun and delicious and interesting things back to Master, did Master forget it? One by one, one by one.
Zhang Fengnian was not impatient.
When Liu Xiaohua finally asked enough, there was less manic depression in her heart. I feel that my small body is full of strength, and I can be invincible no matter what difficulties I face. She returned to the disciples and was about to inquire about the Lingtai again, when suddenly a bell rang in the night sky.
The direction in which the bell came was the same direction they came from during the day. As the sound got closer, the sound of horses' hooves could be heard.
"Someone's coming." Liu Xiaohua immediately took the dagger that Fusheng gave her in her hand.
The others were alarmed by her and heard the voices getting closer.
"It's someone passing by." Linglong disagreed, and said, "What are you nervous about?" ”
The others were still whispering about the spirit, and no one took the bell to heart.
"We've walked for so long and we haven't met a single passerby. It's always right to be careful when you're away from home. ”
"That's it," Xu Sijiu immediately agreed.
Linglong gave her an angry look, but she was still as vigilant as everyone else. Although they can't beat others when they encounter something, they can still run to Zhang Fengnian.
In a few moments, a cloud of light appeared on the distant horizon.
When you get closer, you can see that it is a five-horse cart. The car was unattended, but it was on its own, and it was of an extraordinary appearance, carved with intricate and ornate patterns, inlaid with precious stones, and with glass lamps hanging from the corners. The car was followed by many people in black robes. He didn't squint, his pace was slow, but he could follow closely beside the galloping carriage.
As the car passed by the edge of the camp, the wind blew the veil on the window, and a human face flashed inside.
Liu Xiaohua only felt that her ears were roaring like a drum and her heart was beating like thunder.
Is that...... Ah Niang!?
It's A-Niang!!
