Chapter 208: Cutting Three Corpses (Text)
Most of the ghosts who come here are for the ferryman and the boat of no return on the weak river.
The purpose of my stay here is, first, to clarify some things with Yang Yun, and secondly, to fight for the opportunity to return to the sun on the boat of no return.
"What is the origin of the ferryman? Your subordinates? β
Outsiders don't know Chunyangzi at the bottom of the weak water river, and most of them know that there is a ferryman on the weak water river, and now the ferryman has almost become the spokesperson of the weak water river.
I thought that the ferryman was Yang Yun's subordinate, so I asked him about the ferryman's information, but to my surprise, Yang Yun shook his head and said: "I don't know who he is, but every year on October 11th, he will row a boat on the bank of the weak water river, carry the destined person to the other side, and never return after the past, so the good person took the name of the boat of no return." β
"Can you talk to him, then? What if you don't take me! "I was worried that such a person is generally eccentric, and if he says no, he will not be able to carry it.
"That's fine, you just wait until the ghost door opens again!" Yang Yun was not in a hurry at all, and said casually.
I smiled and joked: "The situation is changing above, Master has something to do, and no one is taking care of it, if I don't go back sooner, something happens to her, can you be reluctant?" β
Speaking of flying barges, Yang Yun frowned, his heart was full of clouds, but he didn't say anything related to flying barges, but said: "In the next few days, there will be a powerful underworld who will rush here to suppress Pure Yangzi, you try to show your face as little as possible, in case you are found out, it is not possible to leave from here." β
I snorted.
Because Emperor Xudu and others were coming, Yang Yun, as the host, naturally had to prepare for it, so he walked out of the house without talking to me for a long time.
After he walked for a while, Yan Tingxu slowly paced in, cautious to the extreme, leaning against the corner of the wall to look at me, never daring to approach, not daring to speak, not even daring to take his eyes off me.
I shook my head speechlessly, just because I added the identity of a Yama, did it become so terrifying? Besides, I'm not a Yama yet.
"I'm not a Yama, you don't have to be afraid, besides, just because I added the identity of a Yama, did it become so terrifying?" I asked.
She shook her head first, then nodded again, still afraid to speak.
I don't bother to care about her.
Yang Yun asked me to stay here for the past few days, where can I stay, the purpose of my coming is not only to return the yang, but also to figure out some things.
At least we have to figure out what Li Chunfeng said to Emperor Xudu.
Let Yan Tingxu stay in the house, I went out of the house and wandered around in this Luo Yu Mountain.
It's only been a short time, and Luo Yu Mountain has gathered a lot of yin and ghost soldiers, and even Yin soldiers have come here. In other words, among the four soul envoys, there are already three soul envoys who are about to be born in this matter.
The soul hooker took my place and became the king of Tianyan, and now the soul hooker doesn't know who it is.
These ghosts saw that there were more soldiers in Luo Yu Mountain, and they probably knew that the weak water was going to change, and some of them began to evacuate Luo Yu Mountain, and the other part of them still stayed here if they wanted to try their luck.
I walked around and didn't hear any strange information, but I saw an acquaintance, the old man who had led me here.
The first time we met, he was shouting and telling fortunes, and he was almost bullied by a fat man, but this time he was probably finished shouting and was being humiliated by several people.
Not to mention whether he has real skills, depending on his age, he is also a vulnerable group, these people are really ghosts, the seven emotions disappear, the six desires increase, even such an old man can do it.
After I saw it, I directly stepped forward and grabbed a middle-aged man who was spitting Xingzi, and threw it out.
"you." I scolded, one in each hand, and threw them out again.
After cleaning them up, he went to the old man and asked, "Old man, are you okay?" How did you get here? β
The old man stared at me, straightened out the crumb-like clothes on his body, and arched his hand: "It's Xiaoyou again, you helped me out of the siege, but you're really a good person." β
I smiled, thinking that this old man was probably here to fight for the opportunity to return to the yang, but looking at his dress, I don't know how many years he has been dead, even if he returns to the yang world, he can only be a ghost, why bother?
I wanted to persuade this old man to go to the Ghost Castle, but after thinking about it, then Li Chunfeng is a Xiangshi, and he is also a Xiangshi, maybe he knows him, if he knows Li Chunfeng's whereabouts, he may be able to know what Li Chunfeng has calculated, so he asked the old man: "Old gentleman, has you heard of Li Chunfeng, who is unparalleled in the world?" β
Sure enough, the old man heard the name and said: "Of course I have heard of it, but this world is unparalleled in physiognomy, he can't afford it, if you want to say that physiognomy is the first, you have to be another person." β
I don't care who is the first person in physiognomy, I just want to inquire about Li Chunfeng's whereabouts, and when I saw that this old man knew Li Chunfeng, I asked: "Does the old gentleman know where Li Chunfeng is now?" β
"Li Chunfeng, I had a relationship with him some time ago, and he said that he was going to Xudu to change the lives of two people, and now he should have left Xudu."
After hearing this, I hurriedly asked, "Whose life is changed?" β
"I don't know about this old man, but I don't think he can change the lives of those two people. If you want to change the future, you must look at the past, the past has become a certainty, how can we change it in the future? The old man stroked his beard and said.
The old man didn't know too much, so he stopped the topic, and then asked: "Old gentleman, I want to take the boat of no return to return to the sun, does the old gentleman think I have a chance?" β
"The boat of non-return only carries the people of fate, what looks at the appearance is the appearance, and the fortune teller counts the destiny of heaven, this fate, I am afraid that no one can calculate it thoroughly."
"Does the old gentleman know where the ferryman came from?"
After hearing this, the old man said: "I was about to talk about this person, Xiaoyou just said that Li Chunfeng is the first person in physiognomy, but in fact, there is another person, who is comparable to him in physiognomy, and his name is Yuan Tiangang." β
I have also heard the name of Yuan Tiangang, he has a very close relationship with Li Chunfeng, and there are many historical records of the relationship between the two of them, some are called colleagues, some are called brothers, and some are called masters and apprentices. What the specific relationship was, only the people of that era knew.
However, it is true that Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng are excellent in physiognomy, and "Pushing Back Pictures" was co-authored by the two. Yuan Tiangang also created the 'Bone Song', and Li Chunfeng left a legacy of arithmetic, both of which had a great impact on later generations.
According to the history books, although these two people both worked for the royal family, they often competed in physiognomy and did not distinguish the winner until their deaths.
"Could it be that Yuan Tiangang is the ferryman?"
"Exactly, Li Chunfeng once mentioned Yuan Tiangang to me, that Yuan Tiangang is the protector of the pure Yangzi at the bottom of the weak water river, and he ferries on the weak water all the year round, and it is also for the pure Yangzi."
I was stunned, protector? This relationship is a bit like the relationship between Meng Changqing and me, Meng Changqing is my protector, so Yuan Tiangang is so terrifying, he can actually protect the Dao Ancestor of the Quanzhen Dao?
However, protecting the Tao does not have to be strong to protect the Dao, and it is superior in the cognition of the Dao, and it can also protect the Dao.
After listening to the old man, I looked at him with some confusion and asked, "Old man, why are you so familiar with the affairs of Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang?" β
The old man was dumbfounded, and then smiled: "Hearsay, hearsay." β
I said in my heart, it's strange to believe you.
But he didn't say it out of his mouth, but asked: "Have you ever heard of why Li Chunfeng wanted to change the lives of those two people?" β
The old man paused for a moment before saying: "This matter is about the future, and the heavenly opportunity cannot be revealed, but the road that the two of them are going to take, the pure Yangzi at the bottom of the weak water river will go through it first, if Xiaoyou is interested in this matter, you can stay and watch it at that time." β
"What way?"
"Behead three corpses, preach!" The old man said, his eyes flashed, when he said these words, he didn't look like a frail old man at all, and the momentum at that moment even shocked me.
There is a saying in Taoism that there are three corpses, and the three corpses are the three desires in people's hearts, and the three corpses are cut off, which means that the seven emotions and six desires are thrown away.
The purpose of the true way is to get rid of emotions and desires, to know the heart and see nature, to be quiet in heart, to return to simplicity and truth, and to become immortals.
If the pure Yangzi wants to preach the Tao, he will naturally follow the Tao he created, his Tao emphasizes the removal of emotions and desires, if he really cuts off the three corpses, the soul will reach an unprecedented pure Cheng DΓΉ, and the understanding of the Dao will naturally reach a terrifying point, and when the time comes, he can casually create many Dao methods, and he feels extremely terrifying when he thinks about it. However, he himself will become emotionless, and if that is the case, what is the point of preaching?
From this old man's mouth, I learned that Meng Changqing and I will also preach in the future, if this is the case, what kind of Tao will I and him testify? Like this true way, do you get rid of your passions and desires?
