Chapter 90: Notes on the Heart of the Law (Part II)
"I, Peng Yu Zhenren is also, my father is Peng Yun, a disciple of Zi Qingming Dao Zhenren Bai Yu Toad"
Cai Hongming looked at the words on the parchment scroll and couldn't help but gasp.
As he expected, the corpse under the dark river was a Taoist priest, and his origin was extraordinary.
His father was an important figure in the Southern Sect of the Jindan Sect, and was regarded as one of the "Southern Seven Truths" of the Quanzhen Dao, and was a disciple of Bai Yuchan, the fifth ancestor of the Southern Sect of Taoism.
Bai Yu Toad is quite famous in Taoism, it is said that he is young and intelligent, knows the Nine Classics, can poetry, is good at calligraphy and painting, at the age of twelve, he raised the child department, and later became a monk, committed to metaphysics Dan Dao, and created the Jindan School of the Southern Sect, after the ascension was named "Ziqing Ming Dao Zhenren", known as "Mr. Ziqing, and was later respected as one of the five ancestors of the Taoist Jindan School, is a theorist of the Inner Dan. Bai Yuchan is not the most famous figure in the history of Taoism, nor is he the most famous poet in the history of Chinese poetry; However, he is the most outstanding poet among Taoist figures, the most famous Taoist among the poets of all dynasties, and the only Taoist immortal poet in Chinese history.
Even if Cai Hongming is lonely and unheard, he has heard a poem made by Bai Yuchan:
"Baiyun Yellow Crane Dao people, a piano, a sword, a cup of tea,
The feather coat is often smoky and does not stain the peach and plum flowers in the world.
The world laughs haha, why do you travel all over the world,
In the end, he endured all the hardships and corrected the Tao, and did not stain the peach and plum flowers in the world.
The world laughs haha, why are you competing for fame and fortune?
It's better to turn back and realize the avenue, carefree and immortal.
Quiet and inaction is my family, not stained with dust, rooted in the road,
Visiting the famous teacher to correct the way, Pan Tao will go to Longhua.
In modern times, this poem has been arranged and sung by others. Cai Hongming only learned about Bai Yuchan after listening to this song, and only then did he know about related things. I didn't expect to meet his apprentices and grandchildren today, what a fate! According to Peng Yuzhen's writing on the parchment scroll. Cai Hongming learned everything about Peng Yuzhen.
Peng Yuzhen was raised by his mother, who was also a monk, since he was a child, and he was in a Taoist family, and he was exposed to it and liked everything about Taoism.
It is said that he could memorize Lao Tzu at the age of five and understand Zhuangzi at the age of ten.
When he grew up, he inherited everything from his parents and practiced hard. From time to time, I talked about the metaphysical Tao with my uncles and uncles, and my understanding of Nanzong Jindan became deeper and deeper, and I gradually got a glimpse of the corner of the avenue. After standing at thirty, he felt that there was no progress in his cultivation, so he went out to travel and practice penance. In the past few years, he has seen the smoke of the north and the south, and the suffering of the world. The Dao heart is getting stronger and stronger, and the cultivation is getting longer, but unfortunately it has not been able to enter the Dao. During a one-day practice. In the dark, he realized that the opportunity for him to become a Dao Ning Dan was in the northwest. So he went to the northwest alone.
When I arrived at the place, I saw a desolate land.
At that time, the northwest was not a piece of yellow sand, just some dry mounds with some withered yellow weeds and shrubs.
When Peng Yuzhen arrived at the place, he felt that this place should not be so desolate, so he looked forward. He has many uncles and uncles, and he has learned a lot. In the past, I was taught a scroll by a teacher. He is gazing into his eyes, that is, he is looking at qi.
The ancients believed. All things grow, the sun and the moon run, and the qi of heaven and earth intersect with each other, which has its own reason. As long as we discern the law, we can distinguish good fortune and evil, blessing and wealth, and poverty.
The Hope Qi Decision is a summary of the changes in the qi.
There are many such records in ancient books: "Historical Records. Emperor Wen, 15th year of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty (165 BC). Zhao people Xinyuan Ping to see the air, because it is said that the establishment of Weiyang five temples. Hanshu. The Suburban Ritual Chronicles" also contains this incident: Aragaki Ping said to Emperor Huan: There is a spirit in the northeast of Chang'an, and it is colorful, and if a person is crowned...... Heaven is down. It is advisable to set up a shrine to God in order to conform to it. Emperor Wen accepted his suggestion and set up a temple of the Five Emperors in Weiyang.
Mozi. "Welcoming the Enemy" said: Those who are angry, have the spirit of a big general, have the spirit of a small general, have the spirit of coming, and have the spirit of defeat.
Lü's Spring and Autumn. "Mingli" says: To the chaos of the transformation, the monarch and the minister are thieves, the elder and the young kill each other, the father and son endure each other, the brothers slander each other, the acquaintance is reversed, the husband and wife risk each other, the day is in danger, the discipline of the person is lost, the heart is like a beast, and the evil is profitable. Its cloud-like is like a dog, if a horse, if a white bird, if a lot of cars, if it has its shape, if a person is pale and bare-headed, then the name is Tianheng; There is its shape if it hangs in the kettle and is red, and its name is called Yunyan; If the horses fight, its name is a slippery horse; There is its shape, if the plant is long, yellow and white, and its name is especially bad.
Historical Records. The Book of Heavenly Officials introduces the divination method of Wangqi, saying that if you look up at the clouds, you can reach three or four hundred miles; If you climb the height, you can see two or three thousand miles. By observing the clouds, it is possible to predict the good and the bad.
Taoist Wangqi is actually like the Chinese medicine of looking, hearing and asking, he looks at your complexion, and then combines some physical ailments to know what disease you have. It's just that the Taoist is a little bit of a cow, looking at the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers and plants.
Peng Yuzhen stared at it, only to see the blood in the distance, and there seemed to be a dragon screaming. But when he looked more closely, the vision was gone.
He had a faint feeling that the vision was his chance.
In order to find a vision, he went to Qilian Village, and accepted the advice of the village elders to build a temple here and accept the worship of the villagers.
After a few years, one day, by chance, he found the location of the vision—a strange palace and a tall altar hidden underwater. That's when he realized the guidance in the dark. This is the place where the dragon veins of a water dragon are gathered in the northwest, and now the dragon veins are trapped, causing the ground to be dry. If this dragon vein can be rescued, it will undoubtedly be a great merit.
After all these years of training, he has rammed his Dao heart like an iron wall, and his cultivation is enough, just one great merit is missing, and he can use this to condense the pill and enter the realm described by the ancestors, "A golden pill swallows into the belly, and my life is up to me".
Now seeing that the great merit is in front of him, and Ning Dan is imminent, Peng Yuzhen's eyes are red.
It's just that this great merit is also a great danger, and it is absolutely extraordinary to be able to trap a water dragon here.
At that time, the palace altar that Peng Yuzhen saw was not what Cai Hongming saw now, there were secret spells everywhere, and if you were not careful, you would die, not to mention underwater. So he went out to prepare, and he also had the consideration of dying, so he had the parchment roll in the bone cylinder.
In the end, it was also his bad luck that he broke many mechanisms, and when he was about to walk on the high platform, he was hit by a mantra spell left on the high platform, and he was whining and wailing.
Cai Hongming was embarrassed, it seems that good people are really not easy to be.
According to Peng Yuzhen's message on the parchment scroll, he buried a stone box under the Taoist temple behind Qilian Village, which contained a volume of the Dan Sutra, a volume of Wangqi Decision, and a volume of Wuji diagrams written by the patriarch himself about the notes made by his father and uncle, as well as a summary of his practice experience over the years. He said that the person who gets these things can choose to practice, but please see that for the sake of getting these things, help him to bring these things to his mother, and if his mother dies, he can pass them on to his descendants.
Cai Hongming didn't look at the words in the back, and when he saw the words "stone box" buried in the ground, he suddenly became interested.
He liked to dig treasure the most, and he didn't care that it was dark, so he ran back to the house and got a flashlight and a shovel, and ran to the back mountain. (To be continued......)
