"Xinyu, why are you lazy again? I used to be lazy and said that I was playing with my junior brother? Now the junior and junior are also studying, what do you say? "Since Lin'er apprenticed, I have studied with Lin'er, and the master has passed it on.

"Master. Isn't it a long time to study, a combination of work and rest during breaks! "Xinyu always has endless words,.

"Master, why do you say that the little junior brother is so serious? Is the little junior brother stupid? Xinyu bared her little tiger teeth, supported it with her hands, and said seriously.

"You're stupid! I'm diligent and studious! Lin'er was unconvinced.

One hundred kilometers south of the Glory Empire, the mountains are connected vertically and horizontally, and one of them is called Zhongnan Mountain, which has been passed down since ancient times and has many hermits in Zhongnan Mountain. In fact, there are not many real hermits now, they can be divided into three categories, one is the real hermits, they have a sect inheritance, they abandon everything, and live a real hermit life, which ordinary mortals can't find at all. The second category is those who are affected by mortal dust and have their hearts hit, they also live in seclusion on Zhongnan Mountain, but they can only be regarded as hermits, just a change of lifestyle, a change of mood, and there are too many such people on Zhongnan Mountain. There is the third type of the most undesirable, that is, those who use the hermit slogan to do the accumulation of money, why there are more and more hermits on Zhongnan Mountain, in fact, the most common phenomenon is that in the name of Qing Xiu, there are some so-called fake hermits on the mountain to take the opportunity to make a windfall, in the name of Taoism in the name of cheating, now Zhongnan Mountain has been successfully gilded by hermits, and the Taoism and Taoism in their hearts have become a means of collecting money. And this is why Lin Longjun hesitated at the beginning.

"Don't make trouble, listen to the master's lecture." The white-haired old man looked at the frolicking two and said solemnly.

"There are thousands of Taoist sects, but only the old lady is respected. After a long period of development, the sect of our Taoist sect has now spread to all corners of time, some of which are self-contained, and some of which have been passed down from generation to generation. But there is only one grandfather, and that is Taishang Laojun. ”

The Tao is the way, the very way; The name is famous, and the name is not very famous.

Nameless, the beginning of heaven and earth, famous, the mother of all things.

Therefore, there is often no desire, to see its wonder, and there is often desire, to observe its subtlety.

These two are the same and have different names, the same name is the mystery, the mystery is mysterious, and the door of all wonders.

If "Dao" can be expressed in words, then it is Chang "Dao" ("Dao" can be expressed in words, it is not ordinary "Dao"); If the "name" can be named in the text, then it is a common "name" (the "name" can also be explained, it is not an ordinary "name"). "Nothing" can be used to describe the state of affairs when the heavens and the earth are in chaos; And "being" is the name of the origin of all things in the universe. Therefore, we should always observe and comprehend the mystery of the Tao from nothingness; We should always observe and experience the clues of "Tao" from "being". These two, with the same source but different names, can be called mysterious and far-reaching. It is not ordinary mystical and profound, but mysterious and mysterious, profound and profound, and it is the general door of the mysteries of all things in the universe (from the "famous" mystery to the invisible mystery, "Tao" is the way to understand all the mysteries and changes). "This is the Tao Te Ching written by our Taoist ancestors, and you must memorize it well. Keep it in mind. This is also the foundation of our monasticism. ”

Fifty yarrows (a tool for deduction made from the stems of perennial herbs) used to deduce evolution represent the number of great extensions, but only forty-nine of them play a role.

Divide it into two to like two, and hang one to like three.

Divide the forty-nine roots into two parts to symbolize the two rituals, and take one (from any of them) and hang it next to it (the three parts that are separated) to symbolize the three talents.

When it is four to like four, it is strange to take the leap like an elephant, so it is hung again.

Then divide the two parts into groups of four to symbolize the four seasons, and put the remaining four in the finger to symbolize the leap month, and the rest of the other part is also sandwiched between the fingers and hung next to it.

Dry strategy, six out of two. Kun's strategy, four out of one hundred and forty. Sixty out of three hundred, the day of the current period.

"These are all ancient books that we have passed down in one line." The white-haired old man spoke slowly.

"Master, will we really become immortals when we cultivate?" Xinyu looked at the master expectantly and asked.

"Yes, our ancestor just became an immortal and flew away." The white-haired old man said yearningly.

"Master, senior sister said that you saved me with a charm back then, didn't you?" Lin'er also asked.

"That's right, back then, the master calculated that you had this calamity and had a fate with me, so he left a charm and asked your senior sister to wait for your arrival, but he still left you with hidden diseases, but as long as you are successful in cultivation, these hidden diseases will no longer exist." The white-haired old man touched his beard and said.

"Xinyu, how did the master teach you the swordsmanship?"

"Master, I'm not thinking about it! There are places where I don't understand much. What is better than a sword without a sword? Xinyu didn't understand the meaning of this passage.

: This depends on your understanding, the master has not learned it! Don't want to step on the shoulders of giants, let's understand it slowly! When you comprehend it, maybe the master is not your opponent! Ha ha. "The master didn't explain too much.

"This is the content book that the master talked about just now, the master of the Tao Te Ching, the Book of Ease, and the Five Techniques of Taoism will hand them over to you, and you must practice the swordsmanship taught by the master diligently, and you must not relax when I am not there. ”

"Master, where are you going?" Lin'er looked at the book that the master took out and asked.

"The master has something to deal with, and he can't come back in a short time, so you must not relax, Xinyu, Lin'er is still young, you must take care of Lin'er, be a good senior sister, the master is not there, and you will be a teacher, don't waste time." The white-haired old man admonished.

"What should I do if Lin'er gets sick?"

"After learning the five Taoist practices, there is a solution in it, remember, ten years later, go to the alchemy furnace." After the old man finished speaking, he turned around and disappeared.

Decade? Is the master going to leave for ten years?

Xinyu and Lin'er looked at each other, the master's departure was too sudden, which caught Xinyu and Lin'er off guard, and they didn't know what to do at all! I had to listen to my master, practice Taoism well, and hope that one day I would be able to become an immortal.
