Chapter 53: The Way of Peace

Liu Xian focused his attention on the parts of the Taiping Sutra on the humanity of heaven and earth, the five elements of yin and yang, and the way of immortals and gods.

This is the method of cultivation.

The method of cultivation in the Taiping Sutra is actually "the way of keeping one". It is believed that if you keep one for a long time, you can transform into a god. He also put forward various methods such as bigu, eating qi, taking medicine, nourishing nature, returning to the mind, incubation, acupuncture, divination, kanyu, taboo and so on.

In addition, there are also medical paths and runes in the book.

Zhang Jiao is the main cultivator of the Fu Dao after cultivating the Taiping True Qi.

I really want to say that this "Taiping Sutra" is actually a comprehensive series of books, which involves too much content. It is a collection of the best parts of many books in ancient Chinese legends. Among them, there are some yin and yang, five elements, feng shui, divination, kanyu and so on from "Zhou Yi"; There is also the art of herbal medicine from the "Shennong Sutra"; There are doctrines from the "Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon", "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", "Tao Te Ching" and so on.

This "Taiping Sutra" gives Liu Xian the feeling that it is like a scripture that synthesizes many classical scriptures, and then learns from each other's strengths and weaknesses and re-innovates.

The cultivation technique in it is similar to Shouyi in "Zhuangzi Zaiyou".

Shouyizhi in "Zhuangzi" says: "I keep one of them in order to deal with it." ”

That is to say, keep the heart in one place, and be in the harmony of yin and yang in the body. Taoism believes that thousands of thousands are also from the beginning, and thousands of people are not defeated by one in the end, nothing is all good, and nothing is bad, and it will end up single-mindedly, and in the end it will be unexpected.

The origin of this Taiping Sutra is also extremely mysterious, and I don't know who compiled it. Only the gods granted it to Yu Ji, and Yu Ji was passed on to Zhang Jiao.

But what is certain is that the Taiping Sutra has long been circulated in the Han Dynasty. Among them, there is a rumor that the god who awarded the Taiping Sutra to Yu Ji is actually Nanhua Xianweng.

And why is Nanhua Xianweng called Nanhua Xianweng? Because he studied the "Nanhua Sutra", he was called Nanhua Xianweng.

And this "Nanhua Zhenjing" is actually "Zhuangzi".

Zhuangzi was a great thinker, philosopher, and writer in the middle of the Warring States period. Zhuang's, the name Zhou, the word Xiu. He once lived in seclusion in Nanhua Mountain, so he was also called Zhuangzi as Nanhua Zhenren. His book "Zhuangzi" is also known as "Nanhua Zhenjing".

Zhang suspects that if the legend is true, then the Taiping Sutra must be related to Zhuangzi. Even if not, it is possible that he was involved in some of the compilation. Especially this cultivation path.

Whether it is "keeping one for a long time, you can make the form of God." Still, "I will keep one of them in order to deal with the peace." Actually, it all means the same thing.

One is that after guarding for a long time, you can transform into a god? One is that I keep my heart in one place, and I am in the harmony of yin and yang in my body?

But that's what you say, but what if you really want to do it?

Whether it's keeping one or keeping one's heart, this should mean single-mindedness, right? But what about what to follow? What is the Manifestation of God? So what are the yin and yang qi in the body?

Just concentrate for a long time?

Zhang Jiao mentioned in the letter that if Liu Xian comprehended the Taiping Sutra, he would cultivate the Taiping True Qi.

But Liu Xian didn't know how to comprehend.

Of course, there is also a mantra: "The one who is peaceful and the qi is down, and the one who reconciles the yin and yang is in harmony with the gods...... Heaven and earth have their own divine treasures, and they all have their own gods and essences, and they follow the five lines of color......"

There are not only mantras, but also some Taoist meditation diagrams.

However, no matter how Liu Xian meditated or how to concentrate on keeping oneness, he still couldn't figure out how to transform the gods and how to harmonize the yin and yang in his body.

How can we cultivate the True Qi of Peace!

No way in! Could it be that this is the legendary problem of chance? Those who don't have a chance can't become immortals and gods?

This, becoming an immortal and becoming a god, Liu Xian didn't have any extravagant hopes, he just wanted to cultivate the true qi of Taiping, let himself enhance his strength, and step into the ranks of the generals of the Three Kingdoms. In this world, whether ancient or modern, those immortals don't know whether they exist, and even if they do, they are all extremely few, Liu Xian doesn't think that he can also step into the ranks of immortals. In this life, he only needs to have the strength of super generals like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to be very satisfied.

After a night, Liu Xian didn't rest until almost dawn, and he had been trying to cultivate the Taiping Sutra. But his eyes were red, and he didn't succeed.

And so it went on for three days.

Liu Xian almost hid in his small building for the past two or three days, and the people in Liu's Mansion also saw it.

Especially Xiaojing, seeing Liu Xian's eyes red, he was both heartbroken and anxious, he didn't know why Liu Xian was suddenly like this, like a demon.

She saw that Liu Xian was holding a copy of the Taiping Sutra called something these days, and from time to time she made some strange movements, and sometimes, it was a whole day.

She asked Liu Xian what he was doing, but Liu Xian didn't say anything, but strictly ordered them not to disturb.

This is Liu Xian's consideration of the importance of this Taiping Sutra, and it can't be known to too many people.

In the evening of that day, Zhang Ning walked into Liu Xian's small building.

In fact, Zhang Ning had long wanted to come to talk to Liu Xian, but Xiaojing just didn't like Zhang Ning, she stayed under the small building, and took advantage of Jian Xian's strict order to not let Zhang Ning in. But this time, it was Xiaojing herself who went to invite Zhang Ning to come to see Liu Xian.

Xiaojing also knows how to read and write, and she secretly saw Liu Xian reading a Taiping Sutra. She realized that this must have something to do with Taiping Dao, but Zhang Ning is a saint of Taiping Dao, and it is related to Zhang Ning, maybe let Zhang Ning go to see Liu Xian, let Zhang Ning persuade Liu Xian, or let Zhang Ning solve some doubts for Liu Xian, which may make Liu Xian return to normal.

And Liu Xian was in the room, holding the Taiping Sutra and meditating.

When Zhang Ning pushed the door in, Liu Xian couldn't help but slap himself in the face.

I'm really a little confused, I actually drill the tip of the horns here, put it in a Taiping Dao saintess who should know something about the Taiping Sutra, and even have cultivated the true qi of the Taiping, don't ask for it, what kind of strength is it to toss here?

"Ah, young master...... Brother Xian, what are you—What are you doing? Why do you beat yourself? As soon as Zhang Ning pushed the door in, he was startled by Liu Xian's movements, and hurriedly stepped forward to check Liu Xian's condition.

When she has outsiders, she calls Liu Xian the young master, and she calls it the same as Liang Ji and Zheng Bo, but when no one is around, she still likes to call Liu Xian as her younger brother, so that it will be closer and more natural.

"Ha, I'm fine, I just thought about things all of a sudden. Ning'er, you came just in time, I have some questions I want to ask you for. Liu Xian stood up, took the jade hand that she stretched out to inspect his face, and pulled her to the bookcase in the room.
