Chapter 121: The First Night
Two days later, Zhang Zheng was naturally the undoubted first place, and I naturally stayed in second place. That night, at Kang Jian's suggestion, the four of us went out for a meal.
Since there were a lot fewer people, the dormitory was suddenly more relaxed, and Zhang Zheng and I shared a dormitory. This saves you a lot of trouble. After all, I'm still a little wary of Zhang Ming, and I haven't slept well these past few nights. As soon as I finished taking a shower, I heard Zhang Zheng's knock on the door: "Zhang Shiyi, are you there?" ”
I answered and opened the door. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Zhang Zheng at this time is obviously a little different, and his face is not cold. Could it be that Zhang Ming woke up again? I asked tentatively, "Zhang Zheng, do you have anything?" ”
Zhang Zheng looked around, entered my dormitory on one side, and said to me in an old voice, "It's me." Then his eyes saw the cigarette I had placed on the table, so he took one and lit it and said, "I'm going to suffocate." I didn't think so before, but after smoking a few cigarettes that night, now it's uncomfortable not to smoke for a day. ”
I said helplessly: "Senior, you take it easy, if you smoke like this, Zhang Zheng will find out." ”
Zhang Ming said with a nonchalant face: "What's wrong with smoking a few cigarettes, I, as an elder, will borrow his body for a few days." Don't worry, I'm measured. ”
I lit a cigarette noncommittally and said, "Senior, I've always had a doubt. ”
Zhang Ming passed the addiction to smoking, and asked with a relaxed face: "Ask, as long as I know, I will answer you." ”
"Predecessors, "The Legend of the Ping Demon" also has a record of the method of seizing the house, although it is not very detailed, but it is also noted that the method of taking away can only be used for flesh and blood. Senior, how did you take away a Tang Sancai? I asked.
"You know one thing, you don't know the other. Although the method of seizing and giving up is widely spread in Taoism, it has been used by some cult cultivators since the Tang Dynasty. But its true origins lie in India. It first spread to Tibet, and then to the Central Plains. To be precise, taking away renunciation is the method of Buddhism. Zhang Ming said.
"The Dharma of Buddhism?" I asked.
Zhang Ming said with a serious face: "Yes, haven't you heard of the tradition of the reincarnation of the living Buddha in Tibet?" In fact, a long time ago, the reincarnation of a living Buddha was accomplished by taking relinquishment. Later, because this method hurt the way of heaven, Rao is the one who exerts the sacrifice is the living Buddha who has attained the Tao, but the successful people are only one out of ten. Over time, this method of seizing and giving up disappeared in Tibet, but survived in the Central Plains. In order to find a way, I consulted a lot of ancient books, including the secret scrolls in the master's sect, and learned that the so-called "snatching house" refers to the place where the soul stays, and people and animals can naturally do it, but such as the Tang Sancai where Brother Wu is located, it can also be regarded as a "house". It's just that this method of seizing and giving up has been extinct in the Central Plains by the Ming Dynasty, and all I can find is some skin, plus I have never cultivated the Tao, so I failed. Saying this, Zhang Ming's face sank suddenly, and he seemed to be still regretting his original move.
I have a vague eyebrows, "Ping Demon Ji" records more of a way to deal with demons and evils, for all kinds of evil methods are not recorded, first, people who are listed as evil cultivators, even if the Tao is high, "Ping Demon Ji" will not be compiled, second, I am afraid that some people in the sect will not be able to withstand the temptation and practice evil laws. Hearing Zhang Ming say this, I asked, "Senior, can you refer to the method of seizing away and extract a trace of your remnant soul?" ”
Zhang Ming shook his head and said: "No, the first step in this method of giving up is to give up one's own life, and the goal of leaving the soul has been achieved." I am already in harmony with this child's soul, and even if there is another way for the soul to go out of the body, it will definitely be our soul. ”
Hearing Zhang Ming say so surely, I couldn't help but feel embarrassed. Indeed, I have a method to get Zhang Ming's remnant soul out of Zhang Zheng's body, but I can only get it out with Zhang Zheng's soul. After figuring it out, how to separate it cannot be solved at all in my current way. It's not just a conjoined baby problem. I don't have the guts to do it. Obviously, Zhang Ming also saw my embarrassment, but unlike my anxiety, Zhang Ming's face was calm. I asked, "Senpai, you don't seem to be worried at all?" Is there any way to do it? ”
Zhang Ming looked at me seriously, then spit out a smoke ring at me and said, "It's not my problem what method to use, it's your problem, so it's useless for me to worry." ”
My chest was so tight that I almost vomited blood. I don't know if this Zhang Ming was originally like this, or if it was like in a small story I saw. The lamp god in the story, because he has been locked up for a long time, no longer fulfills his wishes, but wants to let the people who let him out do things for himself. Otherwise, they will always pestering their benefactor. I looked at Zhang Ming helplessly, and said with a wry smile: "Senior, you really think too highly of me." ”
"I can see that your physique is not the best physique suitable for cultivation, Rao is so, at your age you can be promoted to a Taoist priest, it means that you have a Dao fate. This Dao fate is even more rare than the Dao body. My situation, even if it is a Dao Venerable, may not be able to solve it, but you can. Of course, I won't let you do it in vain, and I will lose the incense when I get to it. I didn't pass on the mantle to my son. First, my son is flamboyant by nature, and secondly, when the Tibetan Dao comes to me, I am afraid that he is also doomed. If you can help me, I can give you the treasure of the Tibetan Dao Gate, which can be regarded as a thank you. Zhang Ming said.
Zhang Ming's words, although they really praised me, but they meant to put a high hat on me. Dao Yuan is a very empty thing, people who believe in it, feel that Dao Yuan is more important than Dao body, and those who don't believe in it think that Dao Yuan is just a kind of fate. However, Zhang Ming's last thanks, I am indeed a little tempted. If, as Zhang Ming said, the Tibetan Dao Sect originated from Yan Lu, a closed disciple of Zhang Tianshi, then the treasure of this Tibetan Dao Sect is probably not ordinary. Of course, what I want is not an earth-shattering magic weapon, the treasure hidden in my heart to the door should be the original "Chronicle of Conquering Demons and Eliminating Demons in My Life", which is the life's work of the ancestors, if I can get it, it is also excellent to hand it over to the master.
Zhang Ming seemed to see through my thoughts, and said with a smile: "Don't think about that Heavenly Master's "Chronicle of Descending Demons and Eliminating Demons in His Life", although according to the legend in my door, there are indeed two copies of this book. However, it was also lost during the Tang Dynasty. As for the whereabouts, I don't know. ”
I shrugged my shoulders and said, "The seniors are smiling, this Heavenly Master's "Chronicle of Descending Demons and Exterminating Demons in His Life" is a treasure, and the younger generations just want to find it for the master." Seniors can rest assured that even if they don't thank them, they will do their best. That's what I'm doing. ”
Zhang Ming didn't sell it to me, but said: "What I want to give you is naturally worse than the "Chronicle of Conquering Demons and Eliminating Demons in His Life", but it is not ordinary, it is another book "Tibetan Taoist Classic" handed down by my door." ”
"The Tibetan Taoist Classic?" I shook my head, I had never heard of it.
Zhang Ming said proudly: "You naturally don't know. If your "Ping Demon Record" is a compilation of diaries, then "Tibetan Taoist Classics" is an encyclopedia, which records all kinds of monsters and magic weapons. It is the work of our mind for many years. It's a pity that only half of it is in my hands, but this half is enough to cover most of the monsters and magic weapons at this time. It's easier than you reading "The Legend of the Flat Demon" page by page. ”
Hearing Zhang Ming say this, he was naturally a little excited to ask me. Actually, I've always had a doubt, why didn't Shimen sort out the various materials in "The Legend of the Ping Demon" and make it into an encyclopedia. Later, I learned that "The Legend of the Ping Demon" has always been a treasure, and the "Legend of the Ping Demon" before the Ming and Qing dynasties was almost not transmitted. Second, the manpower and material resources required are also enormous. There is no one dedicated to this, and it is not convenient to hand it over to outsiders. Unexpectedly, this matter was done by the Tibetan Daomen. Thinking of this, in public and private, I naturally want to help Zhang Ming with this.
