113, the Twelve Hour Beast, Zhou Tianxuanji induction
There is a very interesting question, which is not very clear to scholars today, that is, where did the traditional zodiac sign come from in the first place? Cheng Tianle experienced the Demon Realm Tribulation, but got an answer that may not be correct - from what he saw in the fixed realm!
At this point, according to the requirements of the Dharma, the time is no longer confined to the morning and evening of the meridian, as long as the body and mind are good, the exercise can be performed at any time, so Cheng Tianle meditated intermittently all day. When he was a son at the beginning, he actually saw the "mouse" in the fixed realm, and kept chattering with him, talking about the various methods he had cultivated, pointing out what was wrong and where there was a deviation.
For his cultivation, the "mouse" is of course the clearest, and what he said is also very reasonable, and Cheng Tianle heard the voice of the "mouse" when he entered the country, and he had already practiced 113 and the twelve hour beasts, and Zhou Tianxuanji was used to it, if he moved a little, it was easy to be surrounded by it and follow his guidance to practice, because his earliest cultivation was to listen to the guidance of the "mouse".
But today, he knew that what he saw was not a real "mouse", but just a kind of magic realm. The "mouse" has been sealed by him in the Quchi cave and cannot speak at will, and the mouse in front of him, although it has the same voice and tone as the "mouse", looks different. If the "mouse" had a body, it should be the appearance of the stone beaver statue on Shantang Street, but the mouse seen in the fixed state is a huge mouse, raising a pair of small short legs and talking instigating, looking very funny.
Cheng Tianle not only saw the mouse, but also the rabbit. It was about the time when the sun was rising, and he had just finished his work from a tiger roar, and he had just finished his mind and practiced meditation again, and then he actually saw Nangong. Cheng Tianle thought that Nangong was a rabbit demon, but he had never seen her appear in her original form, so he had always been curious.
Seeing Nangong in the fixed realm at this moment, she turned into a very cute little white rabbit, pricking up her ears and chanting a word is refining a sandalwood bead, and what she said in her mouth is how to refine the magic of the weapon. This is exactly what Cheng Tianle is interested in If he is tempted to listen, 113, the Twelve Hour Beast, Zhou Tianxuanji induction is also equivalent to falling into the demon realm. Because the magic in the Demon Realm is unhearable, no matter what form it takes!
If seeing rats and rabbits is a test of concentration, then seeing a giant python is the real horror. That was before noon, Cheng Tianle did not eat breakfast, but drank a cup of tea to calm down, and sat cross-legged again. As soon as he entered the country, there were many visions, he inexplicably appeared in the Suzhou Zoo, in front of him was a garbage can, at his feet was a lollipop that fell to the ground, and suddenly a big python popped out of the grass in front of him, raising his huge head and spitting out a crimson letter, and said: "Throw the lollipop into the garbage can!" ”
This magic realm almost broke Cheng Tianle's concentration, because he subconsciously wanted to bend down to pick it! Immediately afterwards, he realized that something was wrong, so his body did not move.
This scene is his personal experience, he once played a prank in the zoo to teach a person, the python was an illusion he made, and that sentence was also said by himself. But in the Demon Realm, this scene has changed inexplicably, he has become that person's situation, seeing the python pounce out of the grass and say what he once said, no matter how good his concentration is, he was almost brought into the Demon Realm. No matter who it is, he will subconsciously want to bend down to pick up the lollipop, but fortunately he is alert in time.
But the demon realm is not finished and is still changing, the big python saw that he did not move, and said viciously: "If you don't move, I will swallow you!" Then it grew into the wind, turned into a giant python the size of a bucket, opened its bloody mouth and swallowed it towards Cheng Tianle. Cheng Tianle closed his eyes and looked at nothing, so he swallowed himself into his stomach by this python, and felt that his body and mind were still sitting safely.
Rao is like this, and after he finishes his work, he is also sweating through his clothes and running out of energy. He didn't make a move with anyone, but the experience in that fixed state was like a silent and fierce fight. Cheng Tianle, who had left the fixed realm, came back to his senses, and he suddenly thought of something. The time when I saw the mouse, rabbit, and python in the demon realm happened to be the time of the child, the time of the mao, and the time of the si, which doesn't correspond to the zodiac?
The so-called 12 zodiac signs, corresponding to the earthly branch are 12 kinds of animal totems, such as the rat, the ugly cow, the tiger, the rabbit, the dragon, the snake, the afternoon horse, the sheep, the monkey, the rooster, the dog, and the pig. The earthly branch is not only used to match the heavenly stem to record the year, but more importantly, it is used to keep time, the ancients divided the day into twelve hours, which is represented by the earthly branch. In fact, the zodiac is also called the Twelve Hour Beast, which is a symbol of Zhou Tianxuanji's operation of each performing his duties and taking his own orders, and there is also a subtle inductive connection with the operation of human meridians and divine energy.
The appearance of this demon realm is very strange, not only with Zhou Tianxuanji, but also reflects many thoughts in Cheng Tianle's heart, what will happen in advance, and there always seems to be subtleties in retrospect. Cheng Tianle didn't know what would happen next, but he didn't want to experience the terrifying scene of being devoured by a giant python for the time being, so he got up and went out to find a place to have lunch, strolled along Jinji Lake, and settled down in the lake.
Having a demon realm does not mean that he has to practice in the demon realm, the level of the fixed realm is deep and shallow, he can still concentrate on the movement and guard the extreme quiet, and only cultivate the operation of the vitality without entering the inner scene of the primordial spirit. In fact, the "Demon Realm" is just a phenomenon triggered in the cultivation process, and what Cheng Tianle really wants to cultivate at this time is the combination of Yuan Shen Yuan Qi. To put it more substantially, it is to integrate the vitality that works into the source of consciousness, so that it can be used freely.
When the mind travels with the vitality and enters the place where the divine consciousness originates, all kinds of illusions will naturally breed in the fixed realm, and this is almost the case for any sect or sect. There are some human monks in the demon realm who are not frightened, but the legendary fairy land, the heavenly maidens dance, the immortals come and go, such a beautiful image can not help but make people yearn, but once indulged in it, it is also into the demon realm.
Cheng Tianle practiced exercises by the lake, and finally recovered his vitality in the evening, and did not drive, but simply walked to work in the trading department. He hadn't been staring at his post for several days, and he was always embarrassed to desert every day. I received a call from Xiao Su on the road, we were together just last night, did she miss him again so soon?
Cheng Tianle answered the phone with a smile and said softly: "Ah Fu, have you had dinner?" What are you looking for me? "Xiao Su's name is Su Fu, which doesn't sound like a girl, but the nickname Ah Fu is very kind.
Xiao Su asked, "Lele, are you going to work in the company today?" Although Cheng Tianle asked her to call herself Lele when they met for the first time, Xiao Su still called him Cheng Zong in front of Dong Luo, and only called him that in private.
As soon as Cheng Tianle heard this, he felt a sense of lingering affection, and blurted out: "I'm on my way to work, if you look for me, I can not go to work today." Want to go somewhere? I'll go back and pick you up in the car right now. ”
Xiao Su said, "I happen to have something to go to your trading department, so let's meet there." ”
Cheng Tianle: "What do you have to do with the trading department?" … Hehehe, did you miss me? Come on, I'll treat you to supper! ”
Xiao Su also smiled and said, "I want to visit you, and I just have this opportunity to do something for Dong Luo by the way." The company has activities at night, I may be late, I will arrive after eleven o'clock, you don't have to pick me up, I will drive the company's car over. ”
It feels so good to fall in love, if there is no Xiao Su, I am afraid that this period of demon realm cultivation will be very difficult. Even if he was devoured by a giant python in the fixed state at noon and experienced indescribable horror, when it came to strolling towards the unit at night, Cheng Tianle was still happy, with a beautiful smile on the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
Although I didn't come for three days, it didn't seem to be anything, the work of the trading department was on track, and the employees were doing their jobs very well. There was only one thing that happened when Cheng Tianle was away, and it was a little surprising to him, that is, the fat seller was gone. Hua always closed all the positions and transferred the cash out of the trading department, but did not say hello to Cheng Tianle.
Cheng Tianle has always been grateful to Mr. Hua, who is also one of the benefactors he met in Suzhou, and has given him a lot of guidance and help. The phone rang and it was connected, it seemed that the phone was placed on the side, only to hear Hua Fat say: "Mr. Cheng, I've been very busy lately, right?" It's been a long time since I heard from you! ”
Cheng Tianle said apologetically: "I've been really busy recently, and I haven't been in touch with Mr. Hua for a long time, why did you cancel your account and leave?" I see that your profitability is not bad, are you not satisfied with our service? ”
Hua Fat explained: "Mr. Cheng, don't get me wrong! I am very satisfied with the service of your trading department, but I want to make some other investments recently, and the foreign exchange market is probably a bit volatile. Even if you don't look for me, I'm just about to call you, this kind of foreign exchange trading is very risky after all, and the business of the trading department is not fully compliant. Since you have gained a firm foothold in Suzhou and have enough qualifications, it is better to find a more secure job, and my brother can recommend it to you. ”
Cheng Tianle originally asked why Hua Fat was closed, but Hua Fat persuaded him to change jobs, and he asked strangely: "Thank you for your kindness, but I'm doing a good job now, and I don't plan to move for the time being."
You've transferred all your money out, and what are you going to do to make a fortune? ”
Hua Fat sighed and said, "I don't have any noble pursuits, and I will do whatever I have to make money." Now it's 2013, the legendary end of the world seems to have passed, the third quantitative easing policy in the United States has no upper limit, a vigorous printing of money there, no one can figure out how big the knock-on impact will be, anyway, the foreign exchange market must be turbulent, and commodity futures have more opportunities, I have been speculating in gold since last year. ”!!!
