Chapter 27: The Initiated
After Han Lao offered a good plan, Lin Ying took his own business plane and returned to the imperial capital that day.
At the foot of Fengshan, the old house of the Lin family, a Zen room in the backyard.
"What, initiate?"
Hearing the news that his granddaughter and Han Lao brought back in a hurry, on the bamboo bed mat, an old man wearing a white brocade plain robe opened his eyelids.
"Elder Lin, this matter is extremely likely. Han Lao replied respectfully.
Han Lao didn't dare to guarantee 100% that Luo Yu must be a true initiator, because Luo Yu did not show his perfect Dao method in front of him, so he could only guess.
"Old Ghost Qiao actually recruited an initiator as his son-in-law, no wonder he refused to reveal the slightest rumor......"
Lin Changsong muttered to himself, the three words "Initiator" made his mouth dry.
Because that's exactly what he's dreaming of right now.
It's done, live over a hundred years old, and suppress the gas for the Lin family for decades, it's not a problem.
If it doesn't work, it won't be long in life, the Lin family's mansion, not to mention that it collapsed overnight, but it will definitely not have the same influence as before.
"Han Lao believes that grandpa should give up the risky path of 'Yaoding Breaking the Road', and instead seek a more secure opportunity from this person. ”
Lin Ying told Han Lao's opinion to her grandfather.
"If this person is really an initiator, and he is willing to help the old man and ask him for medicine and the Dharma, he really hopes to be greater. ”
Lin Changsong glanced at his little granddaughter with a serious expression.
Ordinary people don't understand yin and yang, don't know the three talents, don't understand the four elephants, don't understand the creation of the five elements of heaven and earth, and if you want to enter the Tao, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky!
The orthodox selection of Taoist heirs requires wisdom and fate, otherwise, the orthodox secret art will never be passed on.
Ordinary people like them can only try to enter the Tao through the way that Taoist orthodoxy has spread to the people for thousands of years.
The so-called "Yaoding Breaking Dao" is a relatively reliable one of the orthodox Taoists leaked into many folk ways.
The general method is to use the flesh as the tripod and the blood element as the fire, and brutally refine the essence in the things that are born and nourished, and seek creation.
To put it bluntly, it is to use external forces to force out their own potential!
This is very dangerous, after all, it is the truth that medicine is poisonous, and there is no need to talk about it.
"Grandpa, you admire the initiator so much, what exactly is the initiator?"
Lin Ying looked at the old man's eyes so eagerly, and couldn't help but be curious.
The Lin family is a family of tiger generals, who have made great achievements on the battlefield for generations, and at the same time, they are also a family of martial arts.
Why does such a conservative and rigid martial arts family want to spy on Taoist things?
Lin Ying couldn't figure it out.
Lin Changsong and Han Lao smiled bitterly, speaking of which, for a long time, people who practiced martial arts were quite disdainful of the "self-cultivation, meditation and enlightenment". Even now, the ancient martial arts world is divided into the southern faction and the northern faction, and the southern faction still holds this kind of thinking.
"Yingying, before discussing this issue, grandpa will test you first. Lin Changzheng looked at his granddaughter.
"Well, you say. ”
"Among the hundred sons, which are the most mainstream?"
"Naturally, he is a Legalist, a Taoist, a Mohist, a Confucianist, a Yin-Yang family, a famous family, a miscellaneous family, a farmer, a novelist, a vertical and horizontal family, a soldier, and a doctor. Lin Ying said without thinking, when she was in school, she was a genius girl, and she was well-versed in ancient and modern times.
"That's right. Lin Changsong stroked his beard and nodded, "We who practice martial arts, tracing back to the source, should be in the vein of the 'soldier'." ”
"So, because of this, the martial arts are a little shorter 'Taoist'?"
Lin Ying pouted, the big concept of Taoism and the military family is on par, and the martial arts are derived from the "military family", so there is a level of heaviness missing. She understands it this way.
"It's so superficial. Lin Changsong shook his head and smiled bitterly, "In fact, the 'Taoists' at the head of the twelve mainstream families of the hundred schools of the Sons are only regarded as 'small paths'. ”
"Path?" Lin Yin was suspicious, "Could it be that there is still a avenue?"
"There is indeed a Great Dao!" Han Lao couldn't help but interject, "There are hundreds of schools of thought, and the thaumaturgy in the world is all derived from the fur of the 'Great Dao'. ”
"For mortals, the 'Great Dao' is too vast, so the great power of human beings five thousand years ago, that is, the ancestors of Fuxi, Shennong, and the Yellow Emperor, integrated the fur of the 'Great Dao' into the bits and pieces of people's lives, passed it down, and deduced and developed by future generations, so that there was 'a hundred schools of thought, thaumaturgy in the world'. ”
Lin Changsong explained more clearly.
"Therefore, the Tao pursued by Grandpa and Han Lao is not the 'small path' of 'Taoism', but the 'Great Dao'. Lin Ying was extremely smart, and immediately understood what the second elder meant.
"Exactly. Lin Changsong said with a long smile, "The so-called initiator is a cultivator whose body and mind can sense the origin of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and reflect the 'Buddha-figure Dharma'. ”
It can also be understood as a master who is truly qualified to embark on the journey of seeking immortals. Han Lao explained otherwise.
"Journey to seek immortals?" Lin Ying was in a trance for a while, "Is there really a god in the world?"
"It's hard to say. Lin Changsong thought thoughtfully, "However, those of us who practice martial arts, take the tempering of the body, internal strength, qi, imperial qi, and transformation as the outline, and always take the inner true qi of self-precipitation as the core. ”
"Then grandpa still went to Chenhai City to find that guy?" Lin Ying was more concerned about this matter.
"Gotta go. Lin Changsong's eyes were like torches, this matter was not only about his life, but also about the Lin family's qi in the next few decades, and he couldn't be careless.
"Lin Lao personally went out, and at that time, whether the son-in-law of the Qiao family was an initiator or not, it would be known whether he could reflect the 'Deity Dharma'. Han Lao looked quite pleased.
......
It is a matter of whether she can stay comfortably in the human world, Xiao Mei'er's goblin is extremely efficient, and she quickly found most of the materials that Luo Yu explained.
However, one of the materials blindly called "Sanzhang White Pine Snow Dew", Xiao Meier found the seller, but she was not sure of the authenticity, so she called directly to ask Luo Yu to help her distinguish it.
Home.
"Come and pick me up at the gate of Qiao's house. ”
Luo Yu looked at the sky outside the window, and it was okay, he also wanted to take a walk around the city's medicinal herbs and curiosities market, so as to broaden the way for future cultivation.
"I arrived in 30 minutes. "Xiao Mei'er.
Seeing Luo Yu coming downstairs, Qiao Yumeng, who was lying on the sofa playing a mobile game, raised his head and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, why did you come down so early today, are you hungry? But the meal is not ready yet, hehe!"
Qiao Xiangxue snorted lightly, usually an old lady, but when she eats, she has to go upstairs to invite her mother or mother.
"I'll go out and down. ”
Luo Yu left the house with an indifferent expression.
Qiao Yumeng swooped up and leaned to her sister's side, looking suspicious, "Sister, why don't you ask him what he is going out for?"
"He loves to go wherever he wants. Qiao Xiangxue's eyes were white.
"Aren't you afraid that he will go outside to find a wild woman?" Qiao Yumeng muttered.
These words really aroused Qiao Xiangxue's vigilance, but Qiao Xiangxue still snorted stubbornly, "Whatever!"
