Nian Fu said: "Where do you say these legends and stories come from? Why do we always have many stories of mortals cultivating immortals and attaining enlightenment? It can always inspire people and let people know the true meaning of this life, especially those of us who are originally Taoists, it is easier to get better enlightenment in the story, and even have other ideas about the road of cultivating immortals, this may be a sudden realization or a kind of understanding, right? ”

Xiao Tianshu said with a smile: "Hehe, those who don't have these thoughts are generally cultivators, or have had the experience of cultivation in their previous lives, where can ordinary people have such an experience, so you should have a relationship with cultivation......

Nian Fu smiled and said: "Hehe, in this way, I don't always have to envy you for getting along well with two people who have immortals as masters, which proves that I also have this kind of opportunity, otherwise I won't be able to meet you and talk, not to mention that we have nothing to say now, good friends, it means that my fairy fate is still very important......"

Xiao Tianshu said: "Actually, you just asked me, there are always stories of mortals who cultivate their hearts and attain the Tao, where did they all come from, in fact, how did the mortals in mythology cultivate and become immortals?" Just look at the immortals in "The Legend of the Immortals". ”

Nian Fu smiled and said: "You kid, you really know a lot, you know all kinds of cheats, even this kind of legend of the immortals, then I have too few books compared to you......"

Xiao Tianshu said: "I don't read a lot of books, at that time, when I was cultivating in Heming Mountain, I didn't have any other entertainment activities from childhood to adulthood, didn't I just read books?" My master also got me a lot of books, and I said that they were things for me to practice, but I didn't think it was any good at the time, and he didn't teach me any spells, so he didn't do any scriptures. I just thought about the use of reading these books, and there were no spells that worked, and it wasn't a waste of time, I still thought to myself that it would be like in a TV series to be able to fly through the sky and the earth. Hehe, I was irrational and a little confused at the time, how can I do things like that, the master is not for my good, and besides, what we teach and cultivate is the heart, where can you learn any spells if the heart is not right, and learning the spell is also harmful to the world. ”

Nian Fu smiled and said: "Hehe, it's really a mix, such a great opportunity, you see that you have learned so much now, you have the opportunity to meet the fairy master, those of us who have no foundation, we can't even see the face of the immortals, this may be the profession, even if you don't have a foundation when you see the immortals, you don't know much, people can be willing to teach you!" Teach you, you won't learn anything at once......"

Xiao Tianshu said with a smile: "Taoism is a religion of immortal worship, and in the immortal lineage of Taoism, there is a huge system of immortals, including both innate gods transformed by innate Qi, and immortals from ordinary mortals who have ascended to the Tao. As ordinary mortal Taoist priests, they hope that through various cultivation methods, they can eventually achieve enlightenment and reach the immortal realm. Taoism believes that there are many ways to become immortals, and the biography of immortals, "The Legend of the Immortals", shows us the many ways in which mortals become immortals......"

Nian Fu said: "Oh? If there is a situation, what are the ways you talk about it? ”

Xiao Tianshu said: "First of all, the first is to take pills to become immortals, which is the most common way, long before the birth of Taoism, the ancients learned to refine various pills in order to live forever. Taoism refers to the technique of refining pills and taking them as the outer Danshu, and the corresponding Neidan technique is to use the human body as the furnace and the essence of the spirit as the medicine to carry out the practice of internal refining into the Dan. There are many immortals in "The Legend of the Immortals" who became immortals by taking pills. Fang Hui was a hermit in the ancient Yaoshun period, he was good at the art of health preservation, he would refine mica powder for food, and also distributed the refined elixir to the surrounding patients. When Emperor Yao heard that Fang Hui knew the magic of immortals, he asked him to refine mica in Wuqi Mountain. Later, Fang Hui was kidnapped into the secret room by the gangsters and tried to blackmail him to teach the Dao method, Fang Hui turned into a secret room, sealed the secret room with his own name, and smeared a mud pill on the door, and the door could never be opened. In the last year of Xia Qi, Fang Hui turned into an immortal and flew away. During the Shang Tang period, a man who had been an official of Muzheng for more than 30 years was called Qiu Sheng, who was a strange man in the local area, and became more and more robust as he grew older. People all respected him as a teacher, Qiu Sheng fed on pine resin all the year round, and on the north mountain of the corpse country, he dug a stone chamber to live and practice. During the reign of King Wu of Zhou, King Wu personally visited the stone chamber to inquire about the art of health preservation and enshrined him. In addition to these two, the "Biography of the Immortals" also records that many immortals became immortals by taking pills, and Lu Tong of Chu State became immortals by taking the fruits and turnip seeds of Lulumu; Like the forest man Gui's father, he eats osmanthus and sunflower all year round. And use the turtle brain to prepare cinnamon pills with them, and make 1,000 grains with ten catties of cinnamon; The people of the hometown of Wei cultivated Yanggong, practiced in the stone room of Huayin Mountain, and became an immortal by taking Huangjing; Cui Wenzi, a native of Taishan, refines the elixir based on Huangjing powder and cinnabar pill all the year round......"

Nian Fu said: "I listen to the good nutrition, and there is this way of eating, now this kind of turtle brain is not easy to get, but what is unexpected is osmanthus, does this osmanthus really have such a powerful way of health?" Otherwise, I'd like to give it a try......"

Xiao Tianshu said: "Hehe, whether the flower has any effect is secondary, this ancient people cultivating immortals probably feel that the osmanthus is full of fragrance and fairy feeling, I just think that the sunflower seeds in this are quite rare, you say that this ancient is not even sunflower seeds, this kind of thing is relatively scarce?" It's all used in the elixir, even if it's not an elixir, it's also something that the gods eat, you said that the people nowadays eat these things every day and don't see the cultivation artifact, you can also say that the people nowadays live like immortals every day......"

Nian Fu said: "Then you say, in this list of immortals, except for people who have a single practice order to get it first, isn't there no other art of cultivating immortals and attaining the Tao?" That's a bit monotonous, isn't it?,Such a book is only written about food.,And it's all things that people eat now.,It's really a bit unexpected......"

Xiao Tianshu said: "In addition to taking pills, the immortals in "The Legend of the Immortals" also have immortals who have become immortals by refining qi and dissolving void. Peng Zu, the doctor of the Yin Dynasty, according to legend, lived for more than 800 years after the Xia Dynasty until the end of the Yin Dynasty. Peng Zu is good at luck and other health preservation techniques, he is perennial in a fairy room retreat practice in Liyang Mountain, there are two tigers outside the door all the year round to serve around, people in the sacrifice to Peng Zu, can always see the footprints of the tiger outside the fairy, and then these two tigers ascended to immortality with Peng Zu. Yin Xi, the doctor of the Zhou Dynasty, was a commander of Xiguan, he was good at immortal arts, and often served the essence of heaven and earth. ”
