Chapter Forty-Eight: Blessings and Misfortunes
Chu Xiufeng is located in the southwest of Yanzhou, 20 miles away from the capital.
Steep on three sides.
Li Xiangru sat on the edge of a cliff at the top of this mountain, and could see a sea of clouds churning.
It's a layer of clouds, but it's like an uneven land. It is like a water injection into the sky, smashed down from top to bottom, and scattered around after impact, giving birth to ethereal, like a fairy realm.
The red sun slowly climbed above the clouds, and the irradiated clouds were flushed, and they also shone on Li Xiangru's handsome and pale face, which was ruddy.
Li Xiangru sat on the ground, the pine pattern of the scabbard was placed horizontally on both knees, and in the middle of the scabbard was placed a copy of the "Yin Fu of the Book of Scriptures", and his hands were spread on the scabbard, in the shape of a sitting lotus. When the sunlight turned golden and shone on his face, he slowly opened his eyes, his eyes in confusion and contemplation, and he let out a long and long breath of turbidity.
Looking at the clouds shining under the sunrise, listening to the crisp chirping of birds like a song in the natural environment, I can't help but feel refreshed.
"Taoist orthodoxy, virtue and cultivation of five qi, the same heaven and the Tao, nine tricks and twelve houses, the saint has no appearance"
These words, in Li Xiangru in the past few days appear most frequently, these words are also the most profound, this book from yesterday morning to now if you have an understanding, in contact with the wonders of the sea of clouds, the perception is even deeper, meditate for two days and a night to read and heal, after taking Chen Qingfeng's pills, the talent of physical recovery, so that he has been injured in the previous days of the war.
Taoist orthodoxy refers to the fact that the cultivation of this time is still important to the Taoist mind, and even the sage's "Wuxiang" is biased towards Taoism.
Virtue cultivates the five qi, the qi is the essence of the five organs, and the spirit is the commander of the essence of the five organs, which is commonly said, practice first strengthens the heart, only the foundation of the Tao heart is stable and tenacious, in order to cultivate these five instruments, in the spirit in exchange for the Tao change and sublimation.
And the same heaven and the same way, is to keep the heart as one, maintain the initial state of mind that is conducive to cultivation, the mind is correct and the road is far, if it is not right, it will be embarrassing.
The spirit is the messenger of Taoism, the Tao is the beginning of heaven and earth, the Tao produces one, and one is the beginning of all things, containing the qi of intangible transformation.
Dao, starting from the understanding of heaven and earth, all living beings between heaven and earth are Tao, and then to comprehend the Tao.
Nine tricks and ten houses, the gateway of qi, the total of the heart. The aura is stored in the knots of the body. And the location of the storage point of the aura is a higher knowledge. Acupuncture points and acupuncture points are two different concepts, and what he needs to explore now is to talk about different qi and store in different acupoints, so that he can exert greater power. Those who can store the sea of qi outside the acupuncture point, the wider the scope, the higher the achievement.
This blind master is very great, it is said that his aura can come from a radius of thousands of miles, but at that time he was only a blind master to brag. The deeper the contact, the more I realized that this possibility was really there. In the battle four days ago, he saw with his own eyes the peak duel between the Sword Saints, and he also saw the battle between the gods and men above the southwest half of the sky from a distance, especially the giant sword above the half of the sky, the middle-aged man's domineering tone like a god descending from heaven was deafening and blood-surging !
The explanation in "Phaselessness" is that there is no attachment to the concrete, that is, the concrete external image of the object. Hue, i.e., object color, sound, taste, smell, hot and cold, empty. Chaos, i.e., the concrete food that is thought about and the chaos that is not thought. Deeds, i.e., all kinds of good and evil deeds. Cognition, that is, the judgment and cognition of all phases.
This is also the perception of life's color, receptivity, thought, action, and action, that is, the five aggregates.
So what is it that gives rise to the distinctions of the aggregates, colors, thoughts, actions, cognitions, and so on? The root cause of all this is the nature of life, the mystery of life, and this nature of life is the root of life that exists without appearance, independent of all appearances. Is the premise of the realm of unphased origin supposed to come from the five aggregates? Just as the national teacher Chen Qingfeng said to him at the beginning: "Come from the red dust, enter the path of cultivation, and then enter the red dust." ”
When I think about it, this sentence is also like a Sanskrit sound.
To put it simply, after eating eleven steamed buns, I feel that my stomach is no longer hungry, but it is not the eleventh steamed bun that makes my stomach full, but after ten steamed buns into my stomach, I am not hungry.
The premise of stepping into the realm of non-appearance must be to experience this appearance. It turns out that the desirelessness that has been pursued is actually still a process of having desire first.
Perception, with the five senses, if the divine consciousness of the five senses is released, to keenly perceive the existence of all things in this world, and the rules of operation, can it accelerate the process of experiencing this appearance?
After feeling this, the questions that had been confused for a long time suddenly became clear.
Li Xiangru stood up, closed his eyes, his face was solemn and solemn, the knife was unsheathed, the tip of the knife in his right hand touched the ground, raised his head slightly, and released all the spirits of the five senses on his body...... One by one, from his mind, they were presented like landscape pictures.
"Only color and emptiness are the margins of color, only touch and separation are the margins of receiving, only remembering and delusion are the margins of thinking, only life and extinction are the margins of action, Zhan into the Zhan, and the boundaries of knowledge. A smart, low, soft voice seemed to be chanting in his ear, which was a passage from "Phaseless".
It was transformed into golden words, like a spirit, around Li Xiangru who stood in the air.
A majestic righteous qi suddenly roared, he shouted, rose into the air, gathered the aura of heaven and earth and the hundred swords, and slashed towards this sea of clouds!
The knife qi was like a huge lightning bolt converging into a line, only a loud thunderous sound was heard, the sea of clouds was cut in two, and the clouds disappeared in an instant after they broke!!
After landing and standing firmly, Li Xiangru looked at the power of his knife in disbelief, opened his mouth wide, and after being stunned for a long time, it was difficult to suppress the ecstasy in his heart, and let out a loud laugh, not laughing for long, but when he looked up, he found that there was suddenly an invisible pillar of light in the sky, enveloping Li Xiangru's body, and the coercion of heaven and earth made him frightened again.
This pillar of golden light faintly suppressed the light of the sun and the earth.
Under the huge light, the robes exploded and drifted away into dust. Lee Sang-ru also fell into a deep sleep. The Baipi knife was suspended from its hand, buzzing, and the golden thread actually entered the knife body. Li Xiangru's body slowly rose, standing in the void, his eyes slightly closed, opening his arms to greedily absorb the aura of heaven and earth, slowly curling his legs like a baby in the womb, his head closed on pillows, his eyes closed, and his solemn expression slowly showed a simple and clean smile.
A vision of heaven and earth.
Yanjing City, on the stargazing tower, Boren heard this loud noise, glanced at the southwest out of the corner of his eyes, suddenly jumped to the top of the tower, and then took advantage of the power of the top of the tower to rise into the air, the giant sword moved, and roared through the clouds and landed steadily at the feet of Boren, above the clouds. Boren's face was full of shock, his hands were folded, he recited the formula, and made a seal, and what was conjured in front of him was the scene of Li Xiangru standing in the air frantically absorbing the aura of heaven and earth. Naked and hanging in the air like a baby, the red, orange, yellow, green, and blue colors flowed like threads in Li Xiangru's whole body, and the qi and sea points of his body flowed brilliantly...... It wasn't long before a black smoke suddenly appeared above his head, transforming into a beast shape, snatching the aura of heaven and earth with Li Xiangru, and the five-color line started a battle with the black phantom beast, rampage in his body, and the chaos was incomparable. The look on his face suddenly showed a look of pain, and a hint of scarlet slowly overflowed from his mouth and nose......
Boren put his hands down, put his hands behind his back, and the seal disappeared in an instant.
"Stupid! Fool! Divine Consciousness Spread Thousands of Miles Out! Absorb the Mighty Qi of Heaven and Earth, and Don't Fear Blowing Your Thin Body to Death!!"
Immediately, he looked around again, and felt that there was a ray of light in all directions going straight in the direction of Li Xiangru, his brows furrowed even tighter, and then he looked angry, and said with a cold snort: "There are even more fools who are not self-sufficient! When I said a few days ago was a fart?!"
With a wave of Boren's sleeve, a token was drawn from the sleeve and shot towards Li Xiangru like a fashion. The sword shot towards the north! While the secret sound reached the three people gathered under the stargazing tower, he said, "Third junior brother, junior sister, go to Chuxiu Peak in the southwest quickly to protect the Dharma for the person who crossed the catastrophe." Second junior sister, I'm tired of you waiting here!"
The woman who was called the second junior sister nodded calmly, pulled the little junior sister with an excited face, frowned and admonished: "Be careful, don't be so careless!"
The girl said perfunctorily: "Don't worry, senior sister, I know." After speaking, he hurriedly caught up with the third senior brother.
At the same time, the pagoda temple in the southeast of Yanzhou, the current abbot of Wuyi Zen Master also felt that this heaven and earth were very shocked, this kind of heavenly appearance, recorded in the history books, there are only two times!
None of them said: "Amitabha, good, good, the prosperity of the human race! Just around the corner!" randomly got up from the ground, walked to the door, and gathered outside the door The five monks with the highest rank in the pagoda temple gathered outside the door, and when they saw none of them coming out, Shi Li said: "Senior brother in charge." ”
Everyone stared at Wu Yi with shocked and puzzled expressions.
None of them nodded silently to confirm what they were thinking. Everyone's faces were either smiling kindly, or the ancient well was unmoved, but it was difficult to hide the slightest joy in their hearts.
After a while, none of them frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "There are six Taoist friends in the southwest, and I am afraid that they are uneasy and kind." All the juniors and disciples fought against the enemy together with the old man, and they must not let those people get close to the people who crossed the catastrophe within a thousand miles. ”
Everyone looked solemn, and naturally knew the weight of these words!!
Looking at the southwest direction, he saw a giant sword circling, his eyes flashed, and he saw that Li Xiangru was not only shrouded in a golden pillar of light, but also had a huge inscription blue enchantment protecting Li Xiangru. It was a great grandmaster-level earth protection enchantment! In this Yanzhou, I am afraid that only three or four people can observe the scene within the Dao enchantment through this enchantment.
He nodded and said, "The head of the national teacher, Boren, has ordered an enchantment to protect the people who crossed the robbery, and blocked the enemy in the north. All we have to do is stop the Southwest!"
Wu Yi smiled slightly on his face and said: "Liu Qingbai, the sword idiot of the Sword Sect, also led people to come, it seems that this movement has attracted a lot of old monsters, Amitabha!"
None of them uttered a Buddha horn, and instructed the Zen master on the right side: "I can't do it, junior brother, order all the people in the temple to be on guard to prevent the enemy!
"Yes!" everyone promised, except for the Unable Zen Master. The rest all rose with the abbot in the sky.
All of them use the Zen staff as a tool and rush to meet the enemy in the southwest.
In the sky above the boundary of Yanzhou, it was like thunder and lightning, and the people below were amazed to see this strange scene, and those who knew a little about cultivation also boasted about their knowledge. In less than half a day, the sky was quiet again, and a few beams of light dissipated.
