Chapter 54: You're a Genius!
"Ning'er, have you read this Taiping Sutra?" Liu Xian pulled Zhang Ning and asked her to sit in front of the bookcase, put the Taiping Sutra in front of her, and asked himself.
"I've read it, this book is broad and profound, and I don't understand many of the things mentioned above, and some of them don't even understand it at all." Zhang Ning said, a little surprised: "Brother Xian, shouldn't you have been studying this scripture for the past two or three days?" This, these are really not in a hurry, you have to study and comprehend little by little, take your time, others may not be able to comprehend one or two of the mysteries in their lifetime, and may not even be able to read it. Do you want to fully understand the Taiping Sutra in a day or two? ”
"Huh? Is this Taiping Sutra so difficult to understand? I think overall, it's still easy to read and understand. Of course, there are still many places in the clouds, mysterious and mysterious, even if you understand the literal content, but it means something, and it is really not easy to understand and comprehend. Also, there are some aspects that need time to learn and accumulate experience before you can comprehend them. ”
"Oh? So which ones have you watched? Zhang Ning asked in surprise.
"I basically read it all and found that many of the things in it are similar to "Zhou Yi", "Yellow Emperor's Neijing", "Tao Te Ching", "Shan Hai Jing", etc., and even, it can be understood that those contents are collected from the essence of those scriptures." Liu Xian said what he knew.
Zhang Ning's eyes widened in disbelief: "What? How many scriptures have you read? ”
"No, no, maybe I've read some, but I didn't study it seriously, but I just got a little understanding of the core ideas of each scripture. Because I have such an impression, I feel that the Taiping Sutra should have a certain relationship with those scriptures. ”
Zhang Ning was really about to drop his jaw in shock: "Brother Xian, you, you are really a talented person, you can understand the core ideas of so many scriptures?" W-This is amazing. ”
Liu Xian shook his head, thought about it, and said to Zhang Ning: "In my understanding, the meaning of the Taiping Sutra can be divided into four major aspects. The first is about immortality, which is about the way of immortals and gods, as well as the hierarchy of immortals and gods. I don't think we need to know too much about this, after all, the things of immortals and gods are too mysterious, too far away from us, and only in legends. This aspect is not something that we can comprehend and understand now. ”
"Yes, my father said the same thing at the beginning, and my father said that these only need to be understood a little, and it is enough to know that there is such a scripture, and it is not necessary to fully understand it. Because the things of the immortals are not something that mortals like us can understand. ”
"The second aspect is the art of domination, or the art of the emperor. The third aspect is the core ideological content of educating the world. This should be the core idea of the doctrine of the Taiping Tao created by your father. Persuading others to be good, so that everyone can distinguish between right and wrong, good and evil, and put forward 'bearing', that is, the predecessors accumulate blessings, and the descendants are shaded. ”
"That's right! Daddy also talked about this stuff, and I studied this third aspect. You—You can know so much just by watching it for two or three days? Can you really understand? Zhang Ning looked at Liu Xian like a ghost.
"It's just a cursory understanding. I'm now focusing on the fourth aspect, the cultivation method. Your father said in his letter that he was too peaceful and angry. I have been trying to cultivate for the past two or three days, trying to cultivate the Taiping True Qi. But it seemed so simple, but I couldn't get in. Liu Xian then said: "I just want to ask you, you should cultivate Taiping True Qi now, right?" How did you cultivate? What is this Taiping True Qi? ”
"This ......" Zhang Ning frowned, as if he was seriously thinking about what to say.
Seeing this, Liu Xian continued: "Or, this has to be cultivated, and it must be guarded, right?" But I just can't understand what this Shouyi means, and keeping one is guarding the heart? Is that what it means to be single-minded? I did this, and even followed some of the meditation methods mentioned in the Taiping Sutra, but I just didn't cultivate the Taiping True Qi. ”
"I—I haven't cultivated Taiping True Qi." Zhang Ning shook his head and said, "My father also talked to me about this. Dad said that this way of cultivation, not everyone can cultivate the Taiping True Qi, this depends on the individual's comprehension, generally speaking, those who can cultivate the Taiping True Qi, there is no one in ten thousand, it depends on the chance, if there is no chance, it is impossible to cultivate the Taiping True Qi at all. ”
"What? Even you haven't been able to cultivate? Liu Xian looked disappointed, he didn't even cultivate Zhang Ning, this is really troublesome.
"Brother Xian, don't worry." Seeing Liu Xian's disappointed look, Zhang Ning hurriedly said again: "This Taiping True Qi can't be cultivated by yourself, but it can be guided by others to make you feel the existence of Taiping True Qi." So that you can succeed in your cultivation, and then you can choose some spells. But if that's the case......"
Liu Xian was overjoyed, to cultivate the true qi of Taiping, he wanted to be guided by people to succeed in cultivation? He said impatiently, "Then you must have succeeded in cultivating, right?" Why do you say you haven't cultivated? If that's the case, so what? ”
"I did go through my father's guidance and successfully cultivated. But this is not advisable, if it is not for one's own comprehension and cultivation of Taiping True Qi. Even if the cultivation is successful, then the achievements are limited, and every time you want to improve a realm, it will be extremely difficult, and it is possible that the achievements in this life will only stop there. My two uncles, Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang, also failed to comprehend the true qi of Taiping by themselves, and they also succeeded in cultivating under the guidance of my father, so their achievements are limited, and the upper limit of their force is already like that, and it is difficult to break through again. ”
"How can this be?" Liu Xian couldn't help but be a little silent, after being guided by someone to successfully cultivate, there was still such a situation?
No wonder, Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang's force value is not high, at most it is the strength of second-rate generals. This may be because they themselves can't comprehend the Taiping True Qi, and it is through Zhang Jiao's guidance that they cultivate the relationship between the Taiping True Qi.
This situation, Liu Xian is not very acceptable, after being guided by others to cultivate into Taiping True Qi, it is actually equivalent to limiting the upper limit of personal force?
Zhenxian really doesn't want to have his achievements, at most, Zhang Bao, Zhang Liang and the like.
"Let's put it this way." Zhang Ning said: "Originally, whether it was me or my two uncles, we were all ordinary people. It's no different from ordinary people, but after practicing Taiping True Qi, we are not ordinary ordinary people. So, even if I was guided and trained, I would like to. ”
