Chapter 62: Immortality
Yudong said that if they wanted to know the story of the Demon Lord, they had to first find out about the Dian Mi Azali Sect.
Yunnan Mi. As the name suggests, it is the Tantra of Yunnan. In fact, Esoteric Buddhism had entered the Erhai region as early as the Xinuluo era, but at that time, the Witch Sect was flourishing, and there was no room for Esoteric Religion to play. In this way, after 200 years, in the Fengyou and Shilong periods, Tantric Buddhism shined alone and led hundreds of years of style. This process is a very important stage in the history of religion in China.
Achaliism is the state religion of Yunnan and is the state religion of the Southern Zhao Kingdom. It was originally the local Buddhism of the Nanzhao people centered on Weishan, but when the Nanzhao unified Yunnan, Yunnan Mi became Yunnan Buddhism. This is definitely a great historical shift. Since then, as a new branch of Buddhism, the Achali religion has risen in the southern and central regions, which has lasted for thousands of years, and has had an extremely far-reaching impact on the history, culture, and art of Yunnan.
The Yunnan Secret and the Tibetan Secret are of the same origin and have the oldest blood relationship. They all worship Guanyin as the founding god and have an equally large mantra god system.
In the early days of the Southern Zhao Dynasty, the Great Day Nyorai Center of Esoteric Buddhism had not yet been formed. And the highest status, the most widely worshipped, and the most temples are Guanyin, Daihei Tianshen, and Bishamen, which are the so-called three gods of Dian Mi.
Among them, the Tubo Road is the Guanyin of Dongtianzhu, and the typical law is Asaya Guanyin; Tianzhu Dao came to the Great Black Celestial God, which was originally an incarnation of Shiva of the Indian Brahmanical religion; The Western Regions passed through Tubo and came to Bishamen, that is, Duowentian, one of the four heavenly kings of Buddhism.
According to Yudong's analysis, the main god that the demon lord believes in must be the Great Black Heaven Mahagara. Because the Daikoku Celestial God is an extremely important protector deity in Tantra, and he is also a healing god who specializes in curing diseases. And although the Demon Lord seems to be evil, in a sense, he also has the merit of blessing the people of one party. This is somewhat similar to the Dahei God who sacrificed himself for the people in Dali mythology.
The three gods of Yunnan are all two-duty in Nanzhao, both the Buddha gods and the masters. In addition to these three gods, there are also the Buddha Mother, the Void Zang, the Outer Gaizang, the Jizo, the Ming King, the Garuda and so on.
Speaking of this Garuda, Qin Zhen and them will naturally not be unfamiliar! That is the Dapeng Golden-winged Bird in the Desert Ghost Country. That battle of life and death is still remembered by them to this day. Unexpectedly, after arriving in western Yunnan, they actually heard the name of the Dapeng Goldfinch again. It's just that the bird has suddenly changed from a monster in the ghost country to a god believed by thousands of people.
I don't know if Lao Gu will have the urge to shout 'go you' and pick up the burden as soon as he hears this name. Thinking about the big battle between him and the 'bald roast chicken' at the beginning, it was really earth-shattering......
Since they entered Yunnan, Yudong has spoken countless times about the profundity and profundity of witchcraft. This made Qin Zhen and the others finally correctly realize that traditional Chinese medicine, qigong, etc., were all witches in ancient times.
Now, they understand that the essence of Esoteric Buddhism is Umberian Buddhism. Or rather, it is a Buddhist witchcraft. Come to think of it, this Hundred Ghosts Demon Lord deservedly became the last real great witch in this world.
Buddhism combined with Bon to produce Tibetan Esoteric Buddhism; The combination of Buddhism and the bishop gave rise to the Dian Tan.
Yunnan Tantra and Tibetan Tantra are the two great abyss of Chinese Tantra. At the beginning, in the underground floating slaughter of the desert ghost country, the handprints of the Buddha statues that Yudong unlocked were all tantric mudras. I remember that Yu Dong was quite surprised by this at the time, but now that I think about it, this can definitely be said to be an important connection between them.
However, in terms of region, Tibetan secrets mainly affect the northern peoples. Where shamanism and Bon are prevalent, there must be traces of hidden secrets; The influence of Yunnan is the Yangtze River basin in the south, where the bishop and Taoism are popular, there must be Yunnan secret miracles.
But in the final analysis, whether it is shamanism, Bon, bishop, Taoism, all of them are witchcraft. Witch religion has existed since the ancient flood period of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", such as the well-known Great Witch Harlequen, Lingshan Ten Witches and so on. Therefore, only witchcraft is the most primitive religion in China.
After understanding the profoundness and longevity of 'Wu', Qin Zhen felt that their view of the Demon Lord had to be repositioned. They should probably believe that the method of immortality that Emperor Qin and Han Wu spent their whole lives trying to pursue may not be groundless.
Although it is not too certain about the age of the Demon Lord, judging from all the current circumstances, it is simply impossible to say that he has just reached the age of establishment. In this way, his handsome and peerless immortal face is very revealing.
Could it be that the Demon Lord has really practiced the method of immortality?
At this time, Yudong seemed to be telling an inconsequential historical story, and continued lightly: "Legend has it that Guanyin enlightened the founding king of Nanzhao, so Nanzhao is known as Guanyin founded the country and taught the seven masters.
Duan Daochao, Zhang Zichen, Luo Luoqi, Yang Fa, Dong Xiangpi, Meng Gepi, Li Panfu, these are the seven national teachers of Nanzhao. It's hard to say which generation of the Demon Lord is the descendant of which national teacher, but it's obvious that he is much more successful than the Seventh Master of Nanzhao! It may be a bit appalling to say this, but no matter what method he found, he definitely cultivated an immortal body.
It's just that we can't verify it ourselves, otherwise, in another fifty years, if we can come here again, it is estimated that the Demon Lord will still be what he is today...... So, the Demon Lord has become half human and half demon, I think it's true......"
It was the first time Qin Zhen saw Yu Dong speak in this tone. An indescribable, strange attitude. He didn't understand what Yudong was used to conclude that the Demon Lord was really an immortal body. But it's still that sentence, since Yudong said it, there will definitely be his reason.
At this time, Gu Jie waved his hand and said, "Eh, don't think so much. Whether the Demon Lord is a young boy or an old monster, I don't think we can study anything. Since Dong Shao said that his witchcraft is so powerful, even if he is really an old monster, as long as he can help us lift the curse, he is still a good monster.
But Dong Shao, why did this old monster just say that it only has a fifty percent chance of winning? If he said so, wouldn't there be a half-chance that the person who was cast by him would die? β
Speaking of which, everyone's eyes were on Yudong. Because Lao Gu's unintentional words happened to talk about the important dispute they were about to face.
Needless to say, Yudong is determined to choose to be a guinea pig for everyone by himself. And Lao Gu and Jiang Qi, relying on their toughness and enthusiasm, must also hope that they will take on this burden.
As for Qin Zhen, although he said that he did not have Yudong's natural powers, nor did he have Jiang Qi and Gu Jie's sturdy figures. But he felt that he was best suited for the task.
For the four of them, Qin Zhen is the most ordinary and ordinary person. An ordinary person may not have any earth-shattering achievements, but he can have the courage to stand up for his friends! It is this courage that is not afraid of life and death that is even more commendable for an ordinary person.
What's more, it only takes the Demon Lord to solve the curse, and they don't need to do anything else. Although the Demon Lord had said before that kind of process could be extremely painful, Qin Zhen still felt that there was nothing he couldn't bear. So, isn't this task, which doesn't require 'technology' and only courage, the most suitable for him to accomplish?
After a little brewing of affection, Qin Zhen was ready to fight with this brother and resolutely show his determination! But at this moment, Qin Zhen was just about to speak, but Yu Dong waved his hand a little tiredly, looked at Qin Zhen and said, "Don't say anything about this matter." Don't fight, there's no point in fighting. There's no way I'm going to let you go. β
"Why?!" Qin Zhen stood up and yelled.
But Yudong just glanced at him lightly and said, "No why." β
"You're ......!" Qin Zhen pointed at Yudong, his anger trembled, and his language expression ability instantly turned negative.
But Yu Dong squinted at Qin Zhen, and that expression seemed to Qin Zhen to be completely expressing two words--- "how"?
Qin Zhen pointed at Yudong and scolded angrily: "Xia, Yu, Dong!" What the hell am I willing to do with you? How many wounds do you have, don't you count them yourself? With your current virtue, you can go directly to the West if you toss and toss!! Do you want to stay here? You have to be strong in Yunnan to be good, right? β
Yu Dong looked at Qin Zhen's excited posture, casually ripped open his sleeve, pointed to the wound that had healed on it, and said, "Qin Zhen, I already told you just now, the Demon Lord must believe in the Great Black Heaven as the main god. You see, this wound that heals quickly, is the proof. So, the injuries suffered before this are no big deal. You don't have to worry. β
"That'...... You don't have to do all the sinful work! Qin Zhen looked at Yudong's injury, and felt a little better in his heart. Because now it seems that there is indeed no such wound of flesh and blood turned out, and the healing miracle Cheng dΓΉ even left only a faint red mark.
Yudong motioned for Qin Zhen to sit down and listen to him speak slowly.
After Qin Zhen sat down with his breath, he heard Yu Dong explain to them all: "You also heard it just now, what the Demon Lord said about Zhu Youshu, right?"
The curse of the 'wish' is also, and the cause of the illness of the 'by' is also. The concept of blessing is too broad, which includes forbidden spells, spells, blessings, talismans, and so on.
In the Tang Dynasty, there was a forbidden department in the palace, and the Tai Hospital of the Yuan and Ming Dynasty clearly set up thirteen departments, which is the thirteenth department.
If it is said that the general Zhu You technique is probably nothing more than a more profound witch element than Chinese medicine. However, the Zhu Yu technique performed by the Demon Lord must be all-encompassing and the culmination of a qiΔ witchcraft. He overcomes evil with evil and oppresses curses with demons, which is not something that ordinary people can withstand. β
"That'...... So what exactly happens? Qin Zhen asked anxiously.
Yu Dong just shook his head lightly and said, "The foundation of the Nine Dragons Curse is too far-reaching, and it is precisely because of this that even the Demon Lord cannot truly crack it. The spell cast by the Demon Lord should be a strong spell that combines all kinds of spells. If the magic power is not enough, the effect will not be achieved. I don't know exactly what the Demon Lord will do, but I can get a rough idea of what the result will be. β
"Huh?! What the hell will be the result?! Qin Zhen and Lao Gu asked anxiously almost in unison.
