Chapter 16 - The Shackles of Life
Mu Feng knew that this voice was coming from Elder Yu's mouth, and with joy, he stepped into the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion.
He had listened to Elder Yu's sermons in the past few days, and he had already heard of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion in Elder Yu's mouth, and his yearning was urgent.
Now for the first time entering the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion that can only be entered by qi practitioners, he was happy to see the hunting heart, and looked around.
There are rows of stone shelves in this pavilion, and there are many qi practitioners holding scriptures in their hands next to these stone stands, shaking their heads, closing their eyes, or prostrating, or contemplating.
They are all seeking their own way, where they can seal their cultivation.
"I know you, you used to be outside the other day listening to me preach. Elder Yu sat under a stone frame, holding an old book in his hand, and his head was not raised.
"Elder Yu. Mu Feng bowed.
"I heard Elder Ge talk about you, and he said that your qualifications are dull and stubborn, and this path of cultivation has nothing to do with you. ”
"I'm very interested in what Elder Yu said about the ancient cultivation method, and I don't know if Yu knows if he can give me some advice. Mu Feng said sincerely.
"Ancient cultivation method?" Elder Yu suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Mu Feng with burning eyes.
"You know the difficulties of the ancient cultivation method. You don't know the method of ordinary cultivation, and you don't even think about this ancient cultivation method. ”
After pondering for a long time, Elder Yu continued:
"Well, you can see it if you want. There is no record of the ancient cultivation method in this Shuiyun Cave Heavenly Gate, but it has collected some fragments of ancient books, if you are interested in taking a look, it doesn't hurt. ”
Elder Yu pointed to a row of low stone frames, and Mu Feng was overjoyed and walked to this stone frame.
The stone frame in front of him was obviously old and short compared to the others, and there were only a few books listed on the stone frame.
Mu Feng casually picked up a yellowed ancient book, and most of the records in this ancient book were some strange stories from ancient times.
There are big demons and fierce beasts that overturn the river and the sea, and harm the living beings. There are human terran supernatural monks who pick up the stars and catch the moon, and kill the demons.
Mu Feng was attracted by the stories in the ancient books, his eyes were bright, and he flipped through several ancient books in a row, and the general situation was like this.
He also learned some unknown regional knowledge from these ancient books.
It turned out that in ancient times, the name of the continent where they were located was called the Great Wilderness, and later the Great Wilderness gradually divided and formed the current five places of Southern Xinjiang, Eastern Wilderness, Northern Wilderness, Western Soil, and Zhongzhou.
"Grandpa Qu said that he is from the Western Soil, and I am now in the Eastern Wilderness, and the distance from the Eastern Wilderness to the Western Soil is not more than hundreds of millions of miles. ”
Mu Feng thought of Qu Chaofeng, the old man who did not hesitate to go from the west to southern Xinjiang for the sake of his granddaughter. He remembered Ling Ling of the West Soil.
Unconsciously, Mu Feng picked up the last worn-out animal skin scroll on the stone shelf.
The book was black and yellow, and the edges were old and cracked, and I don't know how many years it had been stored.
Mu Feng picked up the roll of animal skins and stroked the dust that fell on it with his hands.
This is a volume of the book called the Book of Ancient Proverbs. The name of the scripture is very obscure, and the smell of it makes people feel a sense of vicissitudes.
The book says that there are seven invisible shackles in human life, and these shackles are ethereal in the eyes of ordinary people, and they cannot be seen or touched, and they may not be able to untie one or two in their lifetime.
These seven invisible shackles seal the secret in the human body, and once the shackles of life are untied, human life will be sublimated. ”
Mu Feng said thoughtfully.
"It turns out that every human race is born with seven shackles, and only by untying these shackles tied to life can we complete the transcendence of life.
The seven blockages that appeared when I practiced the Taixuan Sutra, and the seven life shackles recorded in the Ancient Proverbs. Is there a connection between them?
After untying the shackles of life, the spring of life is not a spring of life, but sublimated into a spring of life, a spring of life and repair, life is endless, and the spring of life is endless. ”
The more Mu Feng looked at it, the clearer he became, if he could open the shackles of life and then practice the "Taixuan Sutra", he might be able to open the legendary fountain of life.
This "Ancient Proverb" records the three shackles of life: greed, hatred, and ignorance. The locks of greed, greed, selfishness. Locks, locks without taboos. Obsession, obsession, overkill. ”
And these three shackles of life correspond to the three major organs of the human body: liver, spleen, and lungs. ”
"It's a pity that it's only a fragment of rubbing, and it doesn't record all the seven shackles. Mu Feng felt that it was a pity, this beast skin book was a fragment, and it only recorded three shackles.
Mu Feng held the "Ancient Proverbs" in his hand, sat on his knees, and recited it over and over again.
"Could it be another madman? Back then, Senior Brother Qin also studied this "Ancient Proverbs", and he became crazy when he practiced it, and he didn't know why Lord Qi Feng didn't list this book as a banned book. ”
Elder Yu raised his eyes to look at Mu Feng and muttered.
Mu Feng felt that he had gained a lot today, and he found a way to open up the life spring to cultivate and become a qi cultivator.
He wanted to ask Elder Yu for advice again, but found that the little lizard had lost contact with him, and when he thought of the restless lord of the little lizard, Mu Feng suddenly felt that his head was big, and he hurried back to the miscellaneous servant's residence.
Walking all the way back, Mu Feng didn't notice anything unusual, but he always felt uneasy, his eyelids jumped, as if something bad was waiting for him.
He returned to the residence of the miscellaneous servants in the side hall, and saw Wang Tong holding a feather fan in his hand, lying calmly on the Taishi chair.
Wang Tong was bathed in the sun, and the feather fan in his hand slowly swayed with the ups and downs of the Taishi chair, so he looked leisurely.
"Mu Feng, why are you walking so fast? Cultivators must keep their calm and calm, deal with things calmly, and the mountains will collapse in front of them without changing their faces. ”
Wang Tongqi squinted his eyes and lazily taught earnestly, today he received the spirit grass liquid from Medicine Master Pei, and it was two bottles, and he was in a good mood.
"You know why you can't be a Qi cultivator, so you can only do some miscellaneous errands. You can see the clues from your usual words and deeds..."
"Thanks to Steward Wang's teaching, my stomach hurts a little, and I want to go back to my room for convenience. Mu Feng was worried about the little lizard, and he didn't want to talk to Steward Wang, so he made an excuse indiscriminately.
"Go, go. You children don't eat indiscriminately, there are some things that can't be eaten, you know?" Wang Tong frowned slightly.
Mu Feng stepped forward, pushed the door in, he walked to the head of the bed in a few steps, and found that the little lizard was lying on the bed and falling asleep, his hanging heart finally let go, fortunately the little lizard did not go out to cause trouble.
"Boy, Uncle Long, I don't eat alone, you can take this fruit and taste it. ”
The little lizard raised one eyelid, and at some point there was an egg-sized green berry on its paw, and it threw it to Mu Feng at random.
Mu Feng took the turquoise berries, and a refreshing aroma penetrated into his mouth and nose, making people's index fingers move.
He unconsciously put the berries in his mouth, and the berries melted in his mouth, and a stream of clear and sweet juice slowly flowed into his abdomen, and the fragrance between his lips and teeth was permeated.
After this berry was in his stomach, he could actually sense that the aura in the dantian seemed to be active.
Rumble!
A vigorous aura erupted in his dantian, and this aura slammed left and right, domineering and abnormal.
Suddenly, the "green needle" at Mufeng's dantian trembled, and it was like a magnet, swallowing the cow and drinking, absorbing all the spiritual energy.
Mufeng Dantian returned to calm, only the "green needle" was left to shine, and the brilliance on it was even more brilliant.
"Hey, where did the fragrance come from, it's so fragrant. The smell was clearly wafting from his room, and there was something wrong with this kid. ”
Wang Tongxi moved his nostrils, took a sharp breath, and looked at Mu Feng's room.
After Mu Feng finished eating the berries, his heart jumped, he always felt that something was wrong, and he was about to open his mouth to ask the little lizard, when suddenly an earth-shattering roar sounded from Shui Yunfeng.
"Roar"
Wang Tong was about to get up and go to Mu Feng's room to find out, but he was half frightened to death by this sudden violent roar, he fell off the Taishi chair, trembled in two ways, and looked outside in a panic.
"Listen, what kind of beast has such a terrible voice. ”
"Is it it?"
"Who provoked it?"
"It is said that that turtle is an ancient relic, and it is higher than the cultivation of the Qi Peak Lord. ”
"Are you talking about the mountain beast?"
"The totem beast that provoked Shuiyun Peak is having a lot of fun now. ”
...
Shuiyun Peak is like a hornet's nest that has been stabbed, up to the Qi Peak Lord, down to the Qi practitioners, rushing out of the cultivation place one by one, jumping up and down, and the figures are one after another.
At this time, a strange beast of dozens of zhang size was lying on the square of the main hall of Shuiyun Peak, it had the head of a crocodile and the body of a turtle. Between the four hooves, the roof tiles fell like rain.
"Senior Kame, please calm your anger. "Lord Qi Feng was confused, he was trying his best to appease this turtle.
This turtle has existed before the establishment of the Shuiyun Cave Tiankai Mountain, because it has a relatively mild temperament, and has reached a consensus with the human race, and is willing to be the mountain protector beast of the Shuiyun Cave Heaven.
He had never encountered a sudden outburst of anger in the turtle, and the strength of the turtle was unfathomable, and it was definitely not under him.
"You human race is treacherous, why did you steal the spirit fruit that I have guarded for many years before it matures. "The turtle's mouth is spitting, booming, and the sound is as loud as thunder.
"Who is so bold?"
"I want to die. ”
"Don't drag us along if you want to die. ”
"This man is hateful, he wants to destroy our heritage. ”
"I don't know if Lord Kame'e will be angry and not evolve the beast pattern for us. ”
...
The Qi practitioners talked a lot, obviously shocked by the words of the turtle.
"Senior Gui'e, where did you start with this. Who in this Water Cloud Cave Heaven can steal your spirit fruit in front of your eyes?" Qi Feng Lord wondered.
"You know I'm sleepy, and I'm not paying attention to other people's holes. I've already felt the breath of the spirit fruit, so I'm going to eat the thief. ”
The turtle moved its bowl-sized nostrils, and the air flowed into its mouth and nose like the wind. It turned its head to look at the side hall of the miscellaneous servants, and its hooves flew up, bringing up a puff of smoke and dust, and rushed out.
"There is really someone who dares to steal the spirit fruit of Lord Gui'e. ”
"Let's go, let's see. ”
"Be sure to meet this hero. ”
"What kind of hero is this, this is going to destroy our heritage. ”
...
Lord Qi Feng's face was furious, and he didn't dare to provoke this totem beast turtle in the Water Cloud Cave Heaven. The current disciples of the sect actually went to steal its spiritual fruit without opening their eyes.
You know, he also covets those few spirit fruits, but it is only limited to greed, the turtle totem is very protective of food, the spirit fruit has matured several times, and he has never separated one again.
And its feedback to Shuiyun Peak is to evolve its own beast pattern and supply the water cloud cave heaven's qi practitioners.
Although no one has been able to comprehend the complete beast pattern of the turtle and jaw over the years, this is indeed the heritage of Shuiyun Peak.
Now that someone has stolen the spirit fruit of the turtle, the Qi Feng Lord still doesn't know if it has any impact on this matter.
He took Yu Ge and the two elders to follow Gu E, and since there was a problem in the secret realm, Shui Yunfeng has not been peaceful recently.
First, Elder Ge's spirit bird was lost, and now the spirit fruit of the turtle is lost.
He noticed something wrong in the secret realm, as if there were beings they didn't realize had slipped out among the villagers.
He searched for a long time but did not find the slightest clue, so in order to avoid panic, he could only keep silent.
And now this hidden problem is becoming more and more prominent, and it has provoked the turtle totem.
