Chapter 919: Lookout
readx;?? (The outline has been reorganized, and it will start to really break out tomorrow, and there will be a change today!) )
When it comes to Hangu Pass, I am afraid that many people will immediately think of the popular allusion Lao Tzu went west to Hangu Pass, and the purple qi was mighty for 30,000 miles. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
It is rumored that during the Zhou Kang Dynasty, there was a virtuous doctor named Yin Xi, who was good at observing astronomy when he was young, practicing astrology, and being able to know the past and see the future. In the twenty-third year of King Zhao of Zhou, Yin Xi saw that the world was about to be chaotic, so he resigned from his position as a doctor, and asked him to be appointed as the commander of Hangu Guan to meditate on the Tao.
After Yin Xi took office, he built grass next to the gate as a building, called it Louguan, and observed the celestial phenomena here every day. One night, Yin Xi stared at the building, and suddenly saw the purple clouds in the east gathering, as long as 30,000 li, the shape is like a flying dragon, rolling from east to west, very surprised, and said to himself: "The purple qi comes 30,000 miles from the east, the sage travels west through here, and the green ox drives the old man, hiding and hiding the vitality of the body." ”
This is the allusion of Lao Tzu's letter to Guguan in the west, and the most famous "Tao Te Ching" is written by Lao Tzu here.
The Tao Te Ching is actually divided into two volumes, the first volume says that the universe is fundamental, containing the opportunity of the changes of heaven and earth, and contains the secret of the fulfillment of gods and ghosts; The next volume is the "Book of Virtues", which speaks of the way to deal with the world, including the art of advancing and retreating personnel, and contains the way of longevity and long-term vision.
Yin Xi got the Tao Te Ching after practicing all day long on the floor view, at first I was not very clear, the recitation of the mouth is familiar, and gradually taste the wonderful meaning. After finally realizing the true meaning, he cultivated the avenue and became the supreme real person of Mr. Wenshi.
Although this is just a rumor, but it is also a word, the Tao Te Ching is far from being as simple as the surface, when it was in the Kunlun realm, the bluestone Taoist people took the Tao Te Ching as a guide to help Mi Yi break through to the middle of the fourth realm, many of the words in it are simple to read at first, but they can be carefully pondered, but they contain the truth of heaven and earth.
It's no wonder that there will be rumors that Yin Xi became an immortal later, if he can really understand the Tao Te Ching, he can't get away.
This Hanguguan can be called the origin of Taoism, and I, a Taoist protector, have come to the right place, just to appreciate the inheritance of Taoism.
It's just that after I came to Hanguguan, I was a little disappointed, at least the Taoist culture is not to think about it, it is some wearing Taoist robes, under the guise of entering the WTO, as for the Taoist thought of the quiet and inaction, don't think about it, but the all-encompassing is used by them very well, it can be described as a rolling source of money, a thousand gold.
In fact, this phenomenon has long been common, and there are almost no people who can really stick to the bottom line, and even if there is, they are secluded in the mountains, and they will not be discovered by outsiders, let alone a steady stream of tourists.
The reason why I came here this time is because Master Lianshan said that the Tianmen Secret Realm will pass through here after seven days, so I came here to wait for the rabbit, there is the Tianmen Order, as long as it is close to a certain range of the Tianmen Secret Realm, it will be automatically sensed, and then open the entrance with the Tianmen Order.
As for whether he could defeat the Chaos Beast guarding the gate and enter the Heavenly Gate Secret Realm, even Master Lianshan was not very optimistic, because in his opinion, it was too difficult.
But even though I knew it would be difficult, I had to come.
In the past, Hangu Pass was a huge fortress and a battleground for soldiers, but now, it is a famous attraction, and even the giant city was rebuilt later, and there are countless other landscape buildings.
Although there is still some distance from the seven-day period mentioned by Master Lianshan, I still came early.
There is a building called Zhan Zilou in Hangu Pass, also called Wangqitai, which is the place where Yin Xi observed the celestial phenomena in those years.
However, the current observatory is not the one built by Yin Xi back then, but has been rebuilt several times on the original site later.
I came to the lookout platform, climbed high and looked into the distance, I have to admit that the sight here is really good, you can take in the scenery of Hangu Pass.
At this time is the tourist season, the world-famous Hangu Pass is no exception, not to mention the crowding, but it is also endless, if it is at night, but if there is any movement here during the day, it will definitely cause onlookers, cause a sensation.
"Isn't it going to get rid of them all?" I couldn't help but frown, this was definitely the next step.
"Forget it, it's not a real lookout anyway, wait until I find out the real lookout." I then rejected the initial idea and decided to find out the real lookout tower first, after all, after so many years, the terrain here has changed a long time ago, and as soon as the terrain changes, the surrounding qi engine will change with it, and the former lookout tower may no longer be magical.
Moreover, this lookout platform is not built at random, but according to the surrounding geographical distribution, the air machine traction, and even fits Zhou Tian, so that it is the real lookout tower.
I sat down in an unobtrusive corner, then closed my eyes, as if in a state of concentration, my consciousness slowly emanated, and suddenly, with me as the center, the surrounding terrain suddenly entered my sea of consciousness, and an illusory, small Hangu Pass appeared in my mind.
At the same time, I am constantly deducing the changes in the terrain and finding the center according to the topography.
This sitting is a whole day, when I am the unity of heaven and man, although I am still sitting there, but no one around the pedestrians see me, directly regard me as air, so that naturally no one will disturb me.
At night, the sky is full of stars that are difficult to see with the naked eye, and all my minds are attracted by the stars in the sky at this time, but unfortunately I am not proficient in Ziwei Doushu, and I can't see the mystery inside, but the trajectory of the stars, which also secretly coincides with the number of days, has also given me some enlightenment.
The next morning, when the sun rose, I also opened my eyes at the same time, and in the distant sky, a purple gas that could not be seen by ordinary people with the naked eye passed like a meteor and fell directly into my mouth.
Swallowing this purple qi, I only felt a shock to my spirit, and the originally slightly tired spirit also faintly recovered a little, but unfortunately this purple qi is too little, only the moment the sun rises every day, the intersection of heaven and earth yin and yang can produce a little bit.
I just don't know what kind of scene was the scene of the 30,000-mile purple qi that Lao Tzu sent out the letter to Guguan back then, even if there was an exaggerated ingredient in it, it was definitely purple qi in the sky, far from being able to compare with such a little purple qi that I am absorbing now.
Just the purple gas that swept 30,000 miles, Lao Tzu was worthy of the name of a saint.
I then got up and left the observatory step by step, and came to the hill of 200 meters in the Kansai of Hanya, which was the new observatory that I had deduced after a day and a night.
At first glance, this hill may seem out of harmony with the surrounding mountains, and even a little abrupt, but if you calm down and look closely, you will find that you seem to be standing in the center of the world around you, and standing here will even give you a sense of clarity and control.
If my expectations are correct, this hill must have grown little by little, and it is not only a new lookout, but also a place where the earth qi gathers, and it is faintly integrated with the surrounding heaven and earth.
When I came to the hill, I saw the gazebo standing above it at a glance, and I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment by this discovery. Otherwise, this gazebo is really inexplicable.
With doubts in my heart, I went straight to the gazebo, and it turned out that there were already people here, and it was an ordinary old man who couldn't be more ordinary.
There is no trace of mana on his body, and his body is even gradually aging, but his eyes are surprisingly bright, pointing directly at people's hearts.
"Little brother is also coming for morning exercise?" After seeing me, the old man asked with a little surprise, it is estimated that he has been here for so long, and he rarely meets young people who come to exercise.
"Yes, the old man came so early." I nodded and looked at the other party and said, the reason why I judged this way was because the other party's current state had been relieved from exhaustion.
There is only one simple stone step on this hill, although it is not high, but it is almost a hundred meters, and even the average young person will be out of breath when walking up, let alone an old man who is obviously over sixty years old.
"I'm older, I don't sleep much, and I wake up early in the morning, so almost every morning I come to climb the mountain and sit here for an hour." The old man said with a smile.
"The old man is so blessed." I looked at each other and said.
"Oh, where do you say it?" The other person looked at me with obvious surprise and asked.
"It's a blessing in itself to be able to find this place, as long as the old man comes often in the future, he doesn't dare to say that he will live a long life, but at least there will be no small disasters and diseases." I'll put it simply.
"I didn't expect to meet a master again today." The other person looked at me and said.
"Could it be that the old man has also met a master before?" I looked at him with some surprise, and I wouldn't say that unless he had had some chance before.
"Yes, seven years ago, I was desperate, accompanied by my family to come here, I thought this would be my final destination, but I didn't want to meet a master, under my pleading, the other party gave me a chance, let me climb up from the bottom of the mountain alone, there were no stone steps here, the mountain road was not easy to walk, in my state at that time, I am afraid that I could not even hold on to the mountainside, but I ignored the opposition of my family, insisted on going up the mountain, it is strange to say, originally I did not believe that I could climb up, But I didn't expect that the more I climbed, the more energetic my body became, and finally I actually climbed up, and even I was stunned. ”
"Then the master left a sentence, saying that I have a relationship with this mountain, and then drifted away, since then, I have stayed here, and every morning I will climb the mountain, I did not expect this insistence to be a full seven years, these seven years, I sit here every day and think, I don't know when I will meet that master again."
"The old man is really a blessed person, and he is also a great blessing, otherwise he would not have met a master back then." I said slowly, feeling a little relieved in my heart, no wonder an ordinary old man would find this place, it turned out that someone pointed me out.
"It's a pity that after so many years, I found that this place only seems to have an effect on me, my wife has been climbing with me for a whole year, except for a little better health, but there is no magic like me." After the old man finished speaking, he stared at me tightly.
