"Cultivating immortals is originally a path against the heavens, and there are many dangers in it, and if you are not careful, you will let the cultivator fall into a place of no return. If you cause trouble again, it will indeed be more than worth the loss. ”

"Now that I am not in my fluff, let me hold back, and if anyone disobeys again, let him be banished. Graphite ordered.

"Yes, Lord!" Yunxiao and Chunhuayang said.

The six immortals used the Earth Escape Technique to dig a temporary cave underground, and Yue Yao hurriedly took out a poison-avoiding pill from the space ring and swallowed it, and his face was much better.

"Brother Yue Dao, that graphite is a Mai Immortal, if you awaken, you will definitely not use such a trick. Now we can be sure that he does not have the strength to fight us, so he let the other side flower come out to carry out tricks. It's just that the graphite hasn't awakened yet, how did the cultivation and spells of the other side flower come about?" Huang Muyuan asked puzzled.

"Their spells are quite rudimentary, but they are just tricky and difficult to guard against. "The Eastern Emperor said.

Yue Yao smiled: "Graphite, they search for the immortal weapons scattered in the world, and naturally they will not let go of some spells that flow among the people. ”

"Folk spells?"

For example, in front of people, take a piece of grass, recite a mantra, and if you fall to the ground, it will turn into a snake, and then it will frighten the people around you; Or take a stone, recite a mantra, and throw it into the river, and it will become a fish, and in the past, some Taoists used this spell to throw it into the rice field to play pranks; Or use a table and stand up on one foot, and after reciting a mantra, the table will turn on its own. Another example is to see people cooking rice, deliberately chanting a spell and casting a spell, so that the rice cannot be cooked no matter what, and the rice is always raw; Or if you see people burning a fire, there is smoke everywhere, and in order to play tricks on the cook, put some things at the door, and as a result, the smoke in the house will not get out, and it will be extremely choking; or set up a plate, put some chess pieces on it, and throw a cat or mouse inside, and it will only keep going around in circles inside, and you will never be able to get out, this is not a formation, and this kind of changing technique is called illusion, they have the content of a spell but not a pure spell. ”

Yue Yao said, and recalled: "Most of the illusions are harmless, and they are often used as Taoist teasing, each of which has its own principles, some are definite and difficult to explain magic phenomena, and some are chemical phenomena, some are common in modern times and some are uncommon: for example, the uncommon eggshell flies, and the inside involves detailed chemical reactions; For example, when the noodles were put in the pot, they were still in the water, but they disappeared in a blink of an eye; Another example is the common tortoise shell engraved with words, after a period of time disappeared, in ancient times this was either achieved with rice milk or medicine, which is essentially a chemical change. So that kind of thing makes sense. ”

"There are also some that are not very clear, but are related to physics or chemistry, such as taking a leaf and cutting it into a fish, coating it with fish gall bladder, and putting it in the water, and it will swim on its own, although it is said that it is related to the pressure of bile and water, but objective research has not seen it. Another example is to take a kind of fish oil, apply it to a small metal jewelry, and make a stroke in the middle of a bowl of water, and the water will separate, and it will be difficult to close for half a day, although it seems to be able to explain it from a physical point of view, but they are more contrary to common sense. ”

"There is a category that is more difficult to explain, such as the instant melon technique, a seed is placed in the soil, watered, and the melon can grow in less than an hour, although the operation method and process, drugs will be used, but the principle behind this phenomenon, no one knows why. There are other methods of making such as the Dead Wood Spring Technique, but no one knows what the principle is. ”

"In the general understanding, the most inexplicable thing is pure magic, such as seeing people carrying a coffin, and making the coffin heavier through a spell, which could have been carried by two people, but it was very difficult for several people to lift; For example, if you see a bee collection technique, if you recite a spell, the bees will fly over and gather together, and then through the spell, they can fly in a certain direction or attack others. ”

"It's more like the snake technique, before entering the mountain, take the designated grass and recite the mantra and tie the five-party knot, you will not encounter poisonous snakes when you enter the mountain, even if you encounter a little snake on the road, it will not move there, and it will not attack people, and this kind of spell is still used in some places in remote areas; In addition, if there is a deodorization technique, it is usually a fixed word and charm treatment, and the corpse of a person will not stink even if it is placed there for a month in summer; It is also like the common frightening or ghost collection techniques of folk gods and goddesses, for example, children always have a fever but the doctor can't cure it, and it's good to be shocked. ”

"If someone suffers from a mental illness and can't be cured, the method of collecting ghosts can restore people to normal at once. ”

"The last category is magic, magic is more common, although there is always magic, but it is easier to find the principle after all, the level of magic is not reflected in the objective phenomenon, most of it depends on the magician's long-term exercise extremely fast technique, more emphasis is on skills and many factors to cooperate, so it is an art. ”

With all of the above, we can clearly feel that there is a strong folk color, because they have little to do with the Great Dao, but more to do with ingenuity, and because of this, these operations are rarely mentioned in the Fa-rectification, and the methods of operation are completely different. ”

"The third is to collect the shock, in the folk method, usually use an egg or a bowl to put rice, and then use the egg on the head of the person to control the shock, or use the rice bowl to cover it with a red cloth, and then by reciting a mantra in a circle on the head, or set up chopsticks to ask the ghost, etc., the effect is better and you need to burn some money. Something like this can obviously be found to have a strong witchcraft overtone. Because they are all used to heal people, they are not considered evil laws, but they are also not righteous laws. ”

"Daomen Zhengfa, the handling of these situations is much more concise, such as children are frightened, directly with spells and charms can be solved, if simple methods can not be solved, then the altar can be easily solved, but the whole process will not be mixed with too strong folk witchcraft. ”

"Judging from the Taoist law of some local schools, it is mixed with a lot of folk witchcraft things, most of which are because of the lack of Jiao and the lack of cultivation of the mage, so they have to use these means, but these methods are objectively not the correct law of the Daomen, although they are not opposed to the use of them for treatment, but it should be noted that although these methods are effective from time to time, they are very helpless when they do not work. ”

"So where did all the folk spells come from?" After listening to Yue Yao's words, Huang Muyuan asked curiously.

Yue Yao thought for a moment and explained: "Some of them are from witchcraft, and some are fragments of the Dao Law, their origins are difficult to examine, I guess that it is either because of the fragmentation caused by the historical inheritance, or because the master and apprentice just intercepted the fragments that they thought were more useful, resulting in a serious incompleteness of this inheritance." ”

"This kind of phenomenon is more obvious in the folk teachings, of course, there are still a lot of teachings with a very complete inheritance, but as far as the current situation is concerned, some of the inheritance of the law is obviously incomplete, taking the small Tiangang palm as an example, through the hand pinching the trick and thinking about the Tiangang Great Sage, and then absorbing the Gang Qi, and then after this practice, it can be used to treat people and drive away evil spirits, and many practitioners have excellent results in practice. ”

"This method is obviously a small piece of the Daomen Tianxin Method, and then only practice Tiangang, but this method is problematic, only practice Tiangang without practicing the sun and the moon, and there will be side effects if there is no harmony of yin and yang, so after practicing this kind of technique, it is not good to use your own body too much. ”

"The law of the Tao is different, if you follow the law, and don't talk about prolonging life, at least there is no problem in ensuring your health, usually normal people who cultivate the Tao, basically do not need to ask for a doctor, ordinary occasional cold and flu can also be cured by themselves, as for serious illness, it is basically not possible. ”

"Of course, in reality, we also look at the actual situation, you can't see a Taoist to see a doctor, just say that he can't cultivate at home, and getting sick is a matter of probability, and cultivation can reduce this probability, but it doesn't mean that he can not get sick at all, and it takes a relatively high amount of effort to achieve complete disease. ”

"On the other hand, if a Taoist delves too much into a certain important task and ends up not cultivating and maintaining health, this is no different from ordinary people, so it is normal for them to suffer from illness. Moreover, there are many taboos in folk kung fu, such as some schools of law taboo bullfrogs and fish, etc., some schools cannot be eaten at all, and some schools need to lead orphans and poor, etc., while Taoist kung fu does not have these problems. ”

"From time to time, some people who practice the Fa say that eating beef will cause the Dharma to fail, but in fact this statement does not exist for the Fa-rectification, because in the past there was no saying that it was forbidden to eat beef, and that the reason for not eating beef was because of the influence of foreign cultures, because they believed that cows were the embodiment of the gods and were sacred, so they could not eat them. However, with the evolution of culture, people believe that the ox is one of the representatives of loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, so it does not eat to show respect, which is a respect for the nature of heaven and earth, and if you are a believer, you should abide by this dogma. ”

"So whether it is in the system, or in a positive sense for people themselves, there are many differences between the orthodox kung fu of the Daomen and the folk kung fu, a large part of which is reflected in the side effects of cultivation, in the practice of folk spells, although some practitioners claim that the times have progressed and there is no need to receive words. ”

"But in fact, some folk cultivators will encounter this kind of problem unconsciously, and as a result, their luck will get worse and worse. This is also the reason why folk magic masters are often in some extremely inconspicuous places, usually a very inconspicuous vulgar person, but in fact the level of the law is very high. ”

"Although it seems that many folk teachings are incomplete, we cannot deny their essence, and there are many ideological essences in folk magic that are worth learning. Taking the simplest bowl of water for all diseases, many diseases are treated by folk mages with a bowl of water, and the patient will be cured after drinking it, although some psychological factors cannot be ruled out, but its real effect is not only explained by psychological factors. ”

"And the most worth learning is that the folk law often uses a simple small spell repeatedly so that it is used very finely, and like a bowl of water for all diseases, in fact, as long as the Taoist priest can do the dojo, it will be, but the water is only used to clean up and splash it, and the rest will be poured out at will, many mages have practiced for a long time, but they don't know that if the water is refined, just that little bit of water can also be used to cure diseases and drive away evil spirits, if it is used more refined, it can also be used to improve the feng shui aura, its effect is extremely powerful, but the premise is to practice more。 ”

"There is an objective phenomenon that cultivators who have been in the Tao for many years are not of a high level and give the impression that they are not very capable. If you want to say that he can't, in fact, he can do everything, but it just doesn't work, and some folk mages don't know much, but they are very effective when they use it, why is that?"

"The reason is that if the folk law is a point, the law of the Daomen is mostly a face, in terms of mana, the limited mana used on a point will naturally be stronger than the use on a surface, but the use of a point has limitations after all, if there is a strong enough mana, the effect of covering a surface will be far greater than the effect on a point. ”

"Most of today's cultivators don't seriously cultivate every link, and then they are in a hurry to practice the entire Fa department, not only that, but also a large number of believers to do it together, which leads to more scattered mana, and often the effect of making a dojo is not as good as the ordinary folk mage three times five divided by two to solve the problem for one person, which needs to be reflected. ”

"Therefore, in cultivating the Fa, we must be calm, have a good enough attitude, and cultivate little by little, the Fa is not much, but the most important thing is refinement, and practicing a Fa well is far more useful than knowing a bunch of Fa, but not refining any Fa. Moreover, as long as you cultivate seriously, you will naturally find that the final effect of the specialization of one method and one method is not as simple as one plus one equals two. ”
