Chapter 16: Master Teaches the Fa Again
After the ceremony, Master stood up and looked at me and said, "Xiao Feng, from today onwards, you will be an official disciple of Zhongtian Ziwei Palace. ”
"Thank you, Master." I also stood up.
"Come, let's sit down and talk." I sat face to face with Master and sat on either side of the Eight Immortals Table. The master said, "Xiaofeng, the conferral has been completed. Next, I want to teach you Taoism, if you don't understand, you can ask me at any time. ”
"Well, I got it, Master."
"Let me first explain to you the concepts of Dao, Dharma, and Magic. The Tao refers to the path of cultivation, and there are thousands of ways in the world, and each sect has its own ingenuity. The Dharma refers to the Dharma of cultivation, and this Dharma includes the Dharma of precepts and the Dharma of cultivation. The technique refers to the fruit of the cultivation of the law, and the common technique is the research of countless predecessors, and the higher the level of cultivation, the greater the change in the technique. Master told me.
"When you first start meditating and spitting, you may wonder why you should recite the crape myrtle sutra in your heart during the meditation process. There are two reasons for this, one is to gather the spirit and refine the qi, and the other is to unite the mind and spirit. Meditation and meditation in a meticulous silence allows the mind to focus on the practice. If this is not the case, then the consciousness will often think wildly, and it will be difficult to focus. Furthermore, the unity of mind and mind is the basic skill when performing magic, and if you can't achieve the unity of mind and mind, you can't perform magic. The crape myrtle Tao Sutra is for the Tao, plus meditation and breathing is for the law, and the oral recitation of the mantra is for the technique, and the combination of the three is the integration of the Tao and the magic, all of which are indispensable. Master continued.
"You take this crape myrtle mantra, you have to carefully ponder the Taoist techniques recorded in it, and today I will tell you about some commonly used Taoist techniques." Master took out a book from his bosom and handed it to me.
I opened the crape myrtle mantra, and saw that there were many words written on it from right to left, and the master explained: "Each technique has a different luck trick and seal, and when you recite the mantra and seal it with both hands, you can perform the spell." ”
"Master, do you have to say it when you cast a spell?" I remembered when Master was performing the spell.
Of course not, the purpose of reciting the mantra is to unite the mind and the mind, and with the help of the rhythm of the mantra, it is more convenient to control the form, qi and spirit. If you can practice to the point where you don't need to recite the mantra, you can also unite the body and spirit, and you can also perform magic. What's more, the connection seal can also be omitted, as long as you can control the aura in your body to reach the normal state, you can perform the spell if you stand still. Master said.
"Ahh Sounds like it's hard to learn how to do it. I muttered.
"Do you think anyone is born to run and eat? It's all about learning and exploring slowly. Master said sternly.
I nodded and didn't speak, looking at the crape myrtle mantra in front of me, thinking to myself, I wonder if I can speed up my learning in the realm of yin consciousness?
。
"Alright, let's move on to spells. Common spells have no effect on the caster, but some cases that are too powerful or cause large karma will still be affected, and the effect of small points is only the depletion of one's own aura. The big impact is to hurt the vitality and reduce its cultivation. Worse still, it will reduce their longevity. The precepts are also used as a boundary to remind the disciples. Therefore, when encountering problems, you should think twice and do what you can. Next, I will tell you more about the power of this.... "I listened to Master talk a lot about spells all afternoon, and I learned a lot from them.
In the evening, I returned to the dormitory and started my daily practice again, this time adding the crape myrtle mantra. I go to work normally during the day, and I sleep and play at night.
The days of repetition go by. One night a month later, I went back to my dream, and I saw the man I hadn't seen in a long time, and he was still the same, unchanged at all.
"Feng Lin, now that you have completely mastered the key to controlling dreams, and you have also practiced in the Yin Consciousness Realm for so long, do you feel anything?" He stood on the edge of the cliff in the small garden, the mountain wind blowing, and the skirt of his clothes fluttering in the wind.
"Nothing! Are you talking about where you came from? I know this, you are the embodiment of the statue in the stone room, and it is also imagined in the realm of my yin consciousness, just like the second brother. I sat on the edge of the flower bed and said.
"Hahahaha, do you think so?"
"Isn't it?"
"Of course not, the Floating Dream is not something that you, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, can conjure up in the realm of Yin Consciousness." He looked back at me and said.
"I didn't imagine it, did you make it?" I'm still not convinced.
"Oh! Then you look around. I looked casually left and right perfunctorily, and said, "No ......" I was floating among the clouds, and those who had been sitting stood up and looked down, and the peaks became extremely distant shadows, undulating like waves.
"Still don't believe me?" I looked up at him, waiting for me to say anything. The surrounding situation changed again, and a huge waterfall appeared around him, and the sound of water shook the sky.
If you look closely, there is a huge tree not far away. Before I could express my surprise, I suddenly felt the light around me dim, and I looked up.
A huge leaf floated down the upper reaches of the waterfall and was washed down by the water against the top of our heads, and we became smaller.
As soon as this thought came to mind, the scenery changed again, and I sat back down on the edge of the flower bed, where he still stood and looked at me, as if everything had just been an illusion.
"You, how did you do that? Why can you control my Yin Realm? I said excitedly.
Falling into a dream and controlling a dream is a gradual process, and it is impossible to quickly change and freeze the scene, because it requires extremely strong yang consciousness control.
If I want to do this, I will only induce the yang consciousness to be the main one, and I will wake up from the dream.
"Do you still want to hear me?" The dreamman said.
"Of course, you can say it quickly."
"Remember the wooden sign you got when you were a kid?" I nodded, reaching out and taking it out of my chest.
"The name of this thing is Jiuxing Pei, it is a magic weapon I refined, it contains my divine thoughts, and it also helps you practice floating dreams and dreams."
"So you're the owner of the Nine Star Pei? And all these dreams I've experienced are all controlled by you? I asked.
"Of course, but I wouldn't have been able to do this if it weren't for the aura you've gradually developed in you."
"So what do you want? Why me? ”
"I don't want anything, I'm just a trace of divine thought in this nine-star pendant, and everything I do is just pre-planned. And it's not that you were chosen, as long as someone with aura gets the nine-star pendant, I will appear in his dream, if I have to say what the reason is, it can only be caused by fate. ”
"How come you only have a trace of divine thought left?" I relented a little and asked him.
"The Nine-Star Peiben can't accommodate all the divine senses, let alone the primordial gods. Moreover, with the cultivation at that time, it was impossible to leave the body. The dreamer said gloomily.
"So, this trace of divine thought just wants to inherit the mantle?" I said with some sympathy.
"The mantle can't be inherited, and now there is only this trace of divine thought, and the primordial god has already been reincarnated. It's just that the secret method that I studied in this life has been lost, so I can't do it. I looked at his fluttering shirt and felt a little sad, so I changed the subject and asked, "Tell me about floating dreams." ”.....。
In addition to the 'Preface', 'Dream Recognition', and 'Seal' that I already know, there are also two key tips, 'The Key to Dreaming' and 'The Key to Dream Control'.
But this is only the introductory part, and after mastering the introductory part, you will reach the real spiritual part. The realm of floating life and dream control is divided into four levels, namely: floating life refining qi, dream refining body, void realm, and yin and yang symbiosis.
They correspond to the common realms of Taoism: condensing qi, building a foundation, forming a pill, and transforming a god. For the corresponding doctors, it is: the five qi dynasty yuan, the I Ching to wash the marrow, rebirth, and the superb.
The names of each sect are not the same, and the differences in realms are also different. No matter how high the level of the Floating Life Dream is, there is no definite name, not only that, but its cultivation method is definitely only to the 'Void Transformation Realm'.
I also asked the person in my dream, and he said that the cultivation method in the world can only reach the realm of real people, and it cannot be passed on further.
When I continued to ask, he said that this is the case with all laws, and I will understand it when I can confirm the 'Void Transformation Realm' myself.
It is also learned that the person in the dream has a maximum of two years left, and that as time passes, his consciousness will become less and less until it dissipates completely.
But he also said: "Fenglin, if you can master the dream refining body, then you can also conjure me in the realm of yin consciousness." But I quipped, "What do you do, if you want to transform into a beauty." But I didn't think so.
I got so many cultivation methods at once, which made my practice stressful for a while. With the daily practice, the days passed.
It wasn't until June that something happened to the old man. That night, while I was meditating, there was a sharp knock on the dormitory door.
I got out of bed, opened the door and saw that it was Brother Zhang, who I hadn't seen for a long time, and as soon as he saw me, he said: "Fenglin, something happened to the old man." When I heard this, I wondered, what could happen?
Car accident? Sick? , but asked: "Brother Zhang, what happened?" ”
"You come with me, talk as you go." Brother Zhang grabbed my hand and was about to leave.
"Wait a minute, I'll change my shoes." I broke free of his hand, went back to put on my sneakers, pulled on my heel as I went out, closed the door and followed him down the dorm building.
At this time, the street lights were already lit outside, and Brother Zhang seemed to be brewing something, so he didn't speak, but walked towards his own car.
I followed him into the car, started the car and drove onto the road. After driving a few hundred meters on the road, Brother Zhang said: "Yesterday, the old man said that there was something to do today and asked me to find him." I didn't answer, waiting for him to continue: "I haven't seen anyone else in the daytime. Later, when I inquired on the road, I learned that the old man had been tied up. ”
"Are you sure?" I thought about how a person as powerful as Master could be tied up, so I confirmed it again.
"Sure." Brother Zhang said.
"Did you inquire about anything? Where are we going? I asked anxiously.
"Save people." Brother Zhang has reverted to his old problems, but this will make him have a gloomy face, as if he has found the enemy who killed his father.
"Can the two of us be saved? Have you inquired about the other party's situation? "I was so impressed by his temperament that I asked two questions in a row.
"Get out of the car if you're scared." He said coldly.
"What am I afraid of, the old man is my master, and people are to be saved. But you can't just go over and die! You have to at least tell me something about the situation so that you can prepare. Do you know where the other party comes from? Have you called the police to see? His words made me angry, and I asked him repeatedly.
"It should be Conghua Church. I have been approached by the police, but I have not been able to file a case for less than 48 hours since I disappeared. He said, paused and added: "The news was given to me by my junior brother, you can believe it." ”
"Then have you ever asked why the church building association tied up the old man?" Seeing that his temper had eased up, I asked again.
Church building? I haven't heard the name.
"I don't know." I sat back in my seat, knowing that I couldn't ask any more, and watched the streetlights on the side of the road move backwards quickly, not knowing what would happen in a moment.
He didn't speak again along the way, Brother Zhang drove the car very fast, and an hour later, the car stopped by a river, and Brother Zhang did not get out of the car after honking the horn twice.
After waiting in the car for long, a man came to the car, pulled the door open and sat in the back seat.
"Where?" The man just sat down, and Brother Zhang said coldly.
"Senior brother, I advise you not to get involved, they have dozens of people." The man in the back said.
"Where?" Brother Zhang said again.
"Then I'll only take you there, and the rest is none of my business." Under the man's guidance, we turned left and right and drove into the alley.
After ten minutes, he stopped, and the man in the back said, "I saw that the courtyard in front of me was not lit, it was there." ”
"You can go." Brother Zhang said.
"Senior brother, I advise you to forget it, these people don't even care about the police." Brother Zhang ignored him, just glanced at him, and the man turned around and left, muttering in his mouth: "If it weren't for the same brother, I wouldn't have bothered to remind you." "We got out of the car and came to the gate of the yard.
It was quiet, not even a dog barking. Looking through the gap in the courtyard gate, this is an ordinary rural courtyard, opposite is a two-story small building, on both sides are built tiled houses, and you can also see that there is a chimney sticking out of the roof of the tiled house on the right, which should be the kitchen.
From the gap in the big iron door, you can still see that the door is pinned up from the inside, and the thumb-thick steel pin can't be opened without a cutting machine, what can I do?
While I was still trying to figure it out,
"Bumper bumper, bumper bumper" Brother Zhang actually slammed the door hard. I whispered, "." I heard a man's voice shouting in Cantonese, "Who?" Brother Zhang didn't answer, and continued to bang on the door.
The people inside heard the knock on the door again, raised their voices and asked, "Who is it?" Speak! "I saw through the crack that he was approaching the door, and quickly hid on the side of the pillar of the gate, clinging to the wall.
Brother Zhang was still standing in place, but he didn't continue to knock on the door. The man opened the door and stuck his head out, turned his head and just saw Brother Zhang, and before he could ask a question, he heard a slight whimper.
"Come out." Brother Zhang whispered. I thought it was calling me, but when I slowly stretched out my head, I saw that the person had been grabbed by Brother Zhang's throat and dragged out.
Brother Zhang dragged the person to a dark corner without light, and I followed. Brother Zhang twisted his right hand with his right hand at this time, and grabbed the man's neck with his left hand, and the guy was speechless and pushed into the corner.
"I ask you to answer, and if you dare to speak out, you will be abolished." Brother Zhang said coldly.
"Who are you? People who don't know who I am, everyone is out to mix, if there is any misunderstanding....? The man spoke, but he didn't dare to raise his voice, but with it
A muffled sound of "bang" interrupted his words, and it turned out that Brother Zhang punched him in the lower abdomen.
"Where's the old man?" Brother Zhang asked.
"Whew... Whew.." The man gasped, his right hand being held making it difficult for him to bend down. After a few breaths, he said, "What age?" ”
"Bang" Brother Zhang didn't speak, and punched again.
"Ahem.." Only then did he let out a cough, and Brother Zhang pinched his throat back again, and it took a while to let go of his hand.
I added in a low voice, "It's an old man in his fifties and sixties." Have you seen it? ”
