Text Chapter 97 Chongyang Notes
Logan floated down the mountain this day and came to Yang Tiexin and Guo Xiaotian's house Panheng.
Through the help of the people in the town, Guo Yang's family quickly bought a small courtyard that is not big or small, just on the edge of the town, the area is not large but it is quiet, Guo Xiaotian and Yang Tiexin are very satisfied after seeing it, but because they fled to Zhongnan Mountain, they have no funds in their hands, and these money are paid by Logan.
"Excuse me, is Mr. Luo here?"
Luo Gen and Guo Yang are chatting, and in about a month or so, the two wives will give birth.
The two of them moved in their hearts and asked, "Sister-in-law of the Guo family, who is here?" ā
Guo Xiaotian's wife was standing in front of the gate, talking to a young Taoist priest, and when she heard this, she hurriedly turned around and said, "Childe, this Taoist leader of the Quanzhen Sect is looking for you!" ā
"Please let him in, it's inconvenient to stand at the gate and talk!"
Luo Genen snorted to show that he knew, gently glanced at the young Taoist priest with a nervous face, and said calmly.
After speaking, he didn't bother to pay attention to how Mrs. Guo received him. After a while, I saw Sister-in-law Li leading the young Taoist priest in.
"I've seen Mr. Luo!"
When the young Taoist priest entered the door, he would bow respectfully to Logan.
"What do you call the Dao Chief?"
Logan raised his eyebrows, invited the young Taoist priest to sit down, and then asked directly without politeness.
"Poor road breeze!"
The young Taoist priest bowed again and replied respectfully.
"Isn't the Taoist from the Quanzhen Sect?" Logan's eyes jumped, and he asked curiously.
"It's not!" Qingfeng Xiaodao smiled bitterly: "The poor Dao is a person who teaches fire workers in the Quanzhen Sect, and he can't enter the eyes of Chongyang Zhenren!" ā
"Why did the Taoist come here?" Luo Gen nodded slightly, knowing that at this time, the Seven Sons of Quanzhen had just begun to accept disciples, and it was indeed impossible for the young Taoist priest in front of him to worship under the Seven Sons Sect when he was too old.
"The horseshoe sect has invited laymen. Go to Chongyang Palace to discuss important matters! ā
Qingfeng Daoist didn't sell anything, his eyes were clear and he said directly.
"I know, I will return to Chongyang Palace early tomorrow morning, and I ask the Taoist to make an extra trip!"
Logan nodded in understanding. After a moment's silence, he said.
"No trouble, no trouble, this is the honor of Poor Dao!"
Qingfeng Taoist hurriedly got up and shook his head, and then left without delay, which can be said to be in a hurry.
ā¦ā¦
The main hall of Chongyang Palace in Zhongnan Mountain
In front of the offering table dedicated to the Taoist patriarch in the innermost, seven futons are placed in one word, and all the seven sons of Quanzhen are sitting. Even the mound with a face that had just been restored was impressively listed.
"Logan promised to go up the mountain early tomorrow morning?"
Ma Yu's face was ruddy, his eyes were bright, and he looked at the Qingfeng Taoist who was running errands and asked slowly.
"Indeed!"
Qingfeng replied respectfully, not daring to behave in the slightest in front of the Quanzhen Seven Sons.
"Go down, and be ready to greet your guests!"
Ma Yu nodded slightly, and casually ordered Qingfeng Daoist to leave.
"What do you think?"
Turning around, Ma Yu restrained the smile on his face and asked solemnly.
"Senior brother makes a decision!"
Wang Chuyi was the first to speak, Liu Chuxuan and the others nodded in agreement, only Qiu Chuji sat still and had no expression on his face, looking like he was concentrating on cultivating the Tao without listening or listening.
"Senior Brother Qiu, what do you think?"
Ma Yu didn't let him go, and asked in a voice with a slight squint in his eyes.
"Senior brother just decides, it's boring!"
Qiu Chuji's face was calm and waveless, and he didn't raise his eyelids and replied coldly.
"Okay, let's meet Logan tomorrow for a while and see what he's up to!"
Ma Yu slapped his hands and said, the world's largest sect, the Quanzhen Sect, was full of momentum.
"Obey the orders of the master!"
The other seven sons, including Qiu Chuji, shook their heads and said.
ā¦ā¦
On the second day, the sun was rising, the ice under the eaves shimmered in the sun, the tiles and dead branches were covered with a layer of white frost, and the weather was dry and cold, and the temperature was extremely low.
Logan got up early, finished his morning exercise, washed his cough, cleaned up his personal hygiene, had a simple breakfast, and went out of the door after explaining to Guo Yang and the others.
The streets were deserted and there were few pedestrians, so he didn't stop much and walked straight out of the town, along the winding bluestone steps of Zhongnan Mountain.
"Tomb Logan, worship the mountain Quanzhen Sect!"
A soft shout sounded like rolling thunder far away on the mountain, and the figure was like a galloping horse sweeping over the winding steps, as if the light smoke curled without weight, and in the blink of an eye, a dozen or so steps were left behind.
Knock knock knock......
On the mountain, the Chongyang Palace of the Quanzhen Sect opened the middle door, and the seven sons of Quanzhen were all in good spirits and stood in a row on the square in front of the door, and more than a dozen Dao children and fire workers were busy in front of them, and only three or two young third-generation disciples stood behind the seven sons, looking down the mountain with curious faces.
A few days ago, Luo Gen made a big fuss in Chongyang Palace, and the majestic figure of retreating with his whole body still remains in the hearts of many Quanzhen Sect people, and he is very curious about Luo Gan, a newly rising master in the rivers and lakes.
There were not a few Taoist children and three generations of disciples who entered Chongyang Palace that day to help clean up the messy land, and the embarrassment of the Quanzhen Seven Sons was also in full view, and they were curious and envious of the masters who could beat the fairy-like Quanzhen Seven Sons in their eyes like that.
As for the seven sons of Quanzhen, naturally their minds are complicated and difficult to understand, and they were forced to go to Zhongnan Mountain by an unknown expert in the rivers and lakes, and they had to be politely and honestly received, and they were aggrieved and depressed in their hearts.
But no matter how aggrieved and depressed you are, it's useless, and if your strength is not as good as others, you have to be honest, otherwise people will be unhappy and brainstorm Chongyang Palace again, and the Quanzhen Sect will lose face and fall to the bottom.
Just when the people of the Quanzhen Gate were about to see through, there was a sharp sound of breaking the air from the steps down the mountain, and then a group of people from the Quanzhen Gate only felt a flower in front of them, and a figure flew like a sharp arrow.
What a speed!
The hearts of the Quanzhen Sect were amazed, and in the blink of an eye, a strong wind blew in their faces, and when the Quanzhen Men stared at it again, Logan was already standing on the opposite side with a smile and a groan.
"Luo Shaoxia is so handsome!" Ma Yu's face was bitter, and he took the lead in stepping forward to salute.
"It's nothing, I heard that the Quanzhen Golden Goose Gong is a first-class light skill in the rivers and lakes, and practicing it to a high depth is like a wild goose galloping?" Logan smiled indifferently and said disapprovingly.
"Luo Shaoxia is polite, please!" Ma Yu didn't say much, only stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please.
"Please!" Luo Gen was not polite, and walked forward with Ma Yu's warship into the main hall of Chongyang Palace, and he didn't bother to look at Qiu Chuji, who was firing a dead light in his eyes, only to hold back this guy's face turned red and full of unhappiness.
"Senior Brother Qiu......"
Wang Chuyi glanced at Qiu Chuji very worriedly, and a trace of dissatisfaction flashed in the depths of his eyes.
Tan Chuduan and the others also deliberately slowed down and turned their heads to look at each other.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to be impulsive!"
It was not embarrassing to be seen by the younger brothers and sisters, and Qiu Chuji's face was red and white for a while, and he said in a muffled voice.
Ma Yu and Luo Gen listened to the movement behind them, and continued to move forward as if nothing had happened, sitting down on the guest chair in the main hall of Chongyang Palace, and then waiting for all the seven sons of Quan Zhen to sit cross-legged on the futon, and the eyes of the two sides fell into an embarrassing cold atmosphere for a while.
"Let's open the skylight and say something!"
Logan frowned, he was not in the mood to play dumb riddles with the Quanzhen Seven Sons, and only muttered for a moment before opening his mouth to break the awkward silence.
"That's right, Luo Shaoxia, please speak up!"
Ma Yu smiled indifferently, his face was warm and kind, his eyes flashed and he nodded with a chuckle.
"I want to take a look at the Taoist classics of your sect!"
The corners of Logan's mouth curled, and he nodded lightly and said what was in his heart directly.
What, want to borrow the Quanzhen Sect collection of Taoist classics?
The Seven Sons of Quan Zhen were surprised and delighted, and couldn't help but look at each other and secretly breathe a sigh of relief, Rogan did not make excessive requests, so that the several coping methods they had prepared before were all invalid, but this was something that the Seven Sons of Quan Zhen liked to see.
"Why, do you think I'm asking too much?"
Logan glanced at Quanzhen Qizi with amusement, and shook his head lightly with a mocking face.
As the authentic sect of Taoism, the Quanzhen Sect naturally has the responsibility of promoting Taoist doctrines! ā
Ma Yu smiled, the look on his face was a lot more sincere, and he looked at Luo Gen and said with a serious face: "As long as Luo Shaoxia wants to see it, my Quanzhen Sect Scripture Pavilion will be open for Shaoxia at any time!" ā
"In this way, thank you Danyang for teaching!"
Logan didn't say much, nodding his head in gratitude. nānāļ¼
This matter must be, the main hall of Chongyang Palace suddenly relaxed, and the face of the Quan Zhen Qizi was relaxed, and he didn't feel so much of an eyesore when he looked at Luo Gen again.
"Luo Shaoxia, there is a question that I don't know whether to ask or not?"
Wang Chuyi couldn't bear it at first, and as soon as his heart was relieved, he couldn't wait to ask.
"Daoist Wang wants to ask me why I borrowed the Taoist classics of your sect, right?"
Logan smiled slightly, and directly broke through Wang Chuyi's thoughts.
"Exactly!" Wang Chuyi did not hide it and nodded calmly.
"Actually, it's nothing, it's just that I suddenly became interested in the Taoist Essence and Spirit Cultivation Method!"
Luo Gen smiled indifferently, holding the tea sent by the Taoist boy, and the warm fragrance lingered in his nose on the main hall of Chongyang Palace with a strong Taoist atmosphere, only to feel that his mind was quiet and troubled, and he said bluntly without the slightest concealment.
Now that he understands what Logan is thinking, the Quan Zhen Seven Sons also let go of their worries and can communicate with Logan normally.
At this time, several people, including Ma Yu's inner catechumen's Jindan technique, were all bent on wanting to magnify the true religion of Wu. As for being a Taoist priest who is truly dedicated to pure cultivation, or after the Quanzhen Sect has completely consolidated its position as the number one religion in the world, at present, the entire Quanzhen Sect has only three or two kittens, and the disciples of the 'Zhi' generation of later civilizations do not know how many they have received.
The Quanzhen Sect can have today's glorious status, all supported by the prestige left by Wang Chongyang, who has been dead for many years, and at the same time, it is indispensable that the seven sons of Quanzhen have worked the rivers and lakes over the years. Desperately brushing the prestige of the Quanzhen Sect and brushing up on favorability, this is why the Quanzhen Sect has the great fame it has now.
The rivers and lakes are realistic, no matter how beautiful and bullish Wang Chongyang was back then, but people die like lights going out, they can deter for a while but not for a lifetime, obviously the seven sons of Quanzhen have a deep understanding of this. In the past few years for Wang Chongyang to return to the rivers and lakes after guarding filial piety, he has successfully brushed his face with good martial arts and chivalry.
At this time, the seven sons of Quanzhen had a much stronger desire for martial arts than the Taoist Jindan technique.
Don't talk about it, after getting the consent of the seven sons of Quanzhen. Rogan began to travel back and forth from the ancient tomb to the Quanzhen Sect, going up the mountain every morning during the morning class of the Quanzhen Sect, enjoying a simple debt meal at the Quanzhen Sect at noon, and going down the mountain to his room to rest in the evening before it was dark.
I have to say that the Quanzhen Sect is known as the largest religion in the world. Although there is a suspicion of exaggeration, but the foundation is really strong, only the hundreds of Taoist classics in the Tibetan Pavilion, involving the outer Dan and the inner Dan are scattered, and there are also two classics of Confucianism and Buddhism.
This is very remarkable, the Song Dynasty is no more closed than modern knowledge, and even if it is transmitted, it is transmitted in a small area.
Not to mention that the current live printing is not mature, even in the later generations of the Qing Dynasty The cost of books is also high, ordinary people simply look at the ocean and sigh, and the reader likes to play a lonely rare book, and engage in the trick of self-cherishing with a broom. I wish I had him, so I couldn't be petty.
This thing is also suitable for each branch of the Taoist sect, each sect as the core of the Taoist classics are different, and the relevant classics developed later are different, except for the people in the sect and the same sect are not clear, if you encounter a point of irresistible natural disasters and man-made disasters, or a fire in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion and other unfortunate things, maybe the original development of a certain Taoist sect will lose its inheritance, and even disappear from now on.
As for the fact that several major sects exchange and learn from each other, it is a big joke.
Because of the different doctrines, the infighting between the various sects of Taoism has never stopped. And because of the competition for the right to speak, even if there is harmony between those big sects on the surface, they are still filthy in secret.
There are also regional differences, and the relationship between the north, south, east and west is very general. It's already very embarrassing to not stick knives into each other, and only a fool would do that if they sit together and honestly share their core teachings.
The situation of self-cherishing is not only for those who can read books, but also for the major sects of Taoism, and the Taoist classics of this era are very precious, and they are even more difficult to see than those Confucian classics. Sometimes there is no place to buy it, even if you have money.
From this point of view, Song Huizong can really be called Emperor Daozong. Only the power of the imperial court can spend a huge amount of money and energy to collect the treasures of the classics of various Taoist sects, and compile them together into the book "Daozang".
And Huang Shang, who is in charge of this matter, also created the Daomen peerless "Nine Yin True Scripture", which shows the preciousness of the Daomen classics, and it can be said that a core Daomen classic can create countless miraculous skills.
The True Sect is not even fifty years old, but it can collect so many precious classics of the Daomen, it cannot but be said that Wang Chongyang does have some means!
Logan was not greedy for more, and as soon as he came up, he went through all the treasured Taoist classics, which would only cause trouble.
Since he was in the Quanzhen Ancestral Court of Zhongnan Mountain, he naturally studied the Quanzhen Sect doctrine first.
In this regard, the Seven Sons of Quanzhen did not hide it, and opened the door to Rogan to look through the freshly baked fundamental texts of the Quanzhen Sect.
According to Ma Yu, the teachings of the Quanzhen Sect are based on the Tao Te Ching, which advocates unintentional forgetfulness, weakness and quietness. Be sincere, think less. Focus on spiritual practice,
It is divided into true merit and true practice. True Gong is internal cultivation, and its practice is roughly based on understanding the mind and seeing nature, removing emotions and desires, enduring shame and dirt, and suffering oneself and benefiting others. Quanzhen is called "Quanzhen" because of internal cultivation to "seek to return to its truth", advocating the perfection of both merit and deeds, in order to become an immortal and prove the truth. This kind of internal cultivation is mainly to cultivate the spirit, that is, sexuality, also known as sexual skills, and the Quanzhen Sect cultivates both sex and life. True practice is external cultivation, advocating to help the world.
Excluding some unrealistic goals in the teachings, there are still very desirable aspects in the teachings.
Of course, with Wang Chongyang's strength and realm, it is not an exaggeration to say that he has become an immortal. It's just that I didn't dare to make a conclusion without seeing it with my own eyes, but the 'life initiate' advocated by the Quanzhen Sect is very instructive.
He was very interested in the Quanzhen Sect's internal cultivation spiritual method, and his strength had reached his level, and it was only a matter of time before his internal cultivation reached the peak of the day after tomorrow in one fell swoop, and even broke through to a higher level.
And the realm of the inner fist has already reached the realm of Danjin, but the time to precipitate the strength to keep up, that is, the first-class people of the land immortals, there is no way forward and there is no need to slowly explore it by itself.
With his high and profound realm, he is spontaneously induced in the dark, and if he wants to go further or make a breakthrough, cultivating his spirit to strengthen his own 'spirit and spirit' is the only way, which is the main reason why he strongly persecuted the Seven Sons of Quanzhen to freely enter and exit the Quanzhen Sect Scripture Pavilion and read many precious classics.
The Taoist cultivation realm is divided into four levels, namely, refining and refining qi, refining qi and transforming gods, refining gods and returning to emptiness, and refining void and merging the Tao. Neijiaquan was created by adhering to the Taoist doctrine, and the distinction between the various realms is also divided by the four levels of Taoist cultivation.
The realm of inner fist Danjin is actually equivalent to the realm of Taoist refining qi and transforming gods.
In other words, at this time, Luo Gen already had the same realm cultivation as the Taoist refining and refining gods.
The realm of holding Dan in the inner fist refers to refining the dantian mixed vitality, the shape moves at will, and it can be volleyed into the air, and it can be controlled by what it means.
This is the realm of pure force, and it can also be done in order to achieve innate cultivation!
However, Luo Gan's statement about refining qi and transforming gods has only been seen in the boxing scriptures of Huo Yuanjia's world, and his specific meaning is not clear.
However, since there is a word 'god' in it, if it is understood literally, it is naturally inseparable from the human spirit, if it is understood along the refining and refining of qi, refining and transforming the spirit is nothing more than turning the essence of the body into the nutrients of the gods, which is used to warm and strengthen the spirit!
Refining and refining qi is very easy to understand, and at the same time, Rogan is also deeply touched by this realm.
When the inner family boxing is cultivated to this realm, it is not an exaggeration to call the food consumption a 'rice bucket', and the energy converted from the essence of food is strong and the effect of strengthening muscles and bones and nourishing the body is first-class.
If there is not enough food to provide the essence needed by the body, the muscles, bones, flesh and blood will not be replenished and nourished and will be consumed greatly, which is self-destructing vitality to replenish energy consumption, which is simply the way to die!
The same is true for internal strength cultivation, the essence taken from the grains and foods is directly transformed into the genus of internal force and true qi, and then indirectly nourishes the body so that the physical fitness is slowly enhanced with the help of internal force and true qi, which is similar to the inner fist directly as a nutrient for the development and growth of the body's blood veins, muscles and bones.
And refining qi and transforming gods, but the words qi and god are different, is it also the genus of essence qi or internal force true qi in the body, through some special means into nutrients to nourish the spirit and strengthen?
In this regard, Logan could only spread his hands to express his helplessness, he couldn't figure out his head at all?
Of course, whether it is the cultivation of internal boxing or the cultivation of internal strength, it has an excellent effect on the spirit, this is an undoubted fact, all those who practice internal boxing and internal strength are successful, and their mental state is much stronger than that of ordinary people, which is a change that can be seen by fools.
But the problem is that this kind of change is imperceptible and passive, there is no way to grasp it at all, and there is no specific method at all, it is all to go with the flow and slowly grow and become full of spirit, only know how to practice martial arts and strengthen the gods, as for how to transform the energy, and in what way to transform it is completely clueless.
For this reason, Luo Gen was very distressed, the situation that there was no way forward in realm cultivation was too bad.
It wasn't until he visited Huang Yaoshi on Peach Blossom Island that he comprehended a method of spiritual cultivation, and at this time, he read a large number of precious Taoist classics that he understood the specific meaning of 'refining qi and transforming gods'.
More than ten days passed, and these days he ran to the Quanzhen Sect Scripture Pavilion every day, devouring the obscure Taoist classics one by one, and trying his best to absorb the useful information in them while pondering.
In order to further the realm of martial arts, he mainly focused on the descriptions of the realm of 'refining qi and transforming gods' in the classics, as well as the implicit cultivation methods.
Not to mention the Quanzhen Sect, it advocates the equality of the three religions, and takes the "Tao Te Ching", "Prajna Heart Sutra", and "Filial Piety Sutra" as the core classics.
Its cultivation wisdom is mainly based on the ancestral scriptures "Tao Te Ching", "Four Sons True Scripture", "Wenshi True Scripture", "Pure Sutra", and "Four Qualities Sutra"; The practice method is mainly based on the inner Dan lineage, and also cultivates the outer Dan talisman, advocating the dual cultivation of life, first cultivating nature, and then cultivating life. It is believed that cultivating the truth is the only right way for Taoist priests to cultivate, and only by removing emotions and desires to see the Tao and making the heart quiet, can they return to the truth and become immortals. It is stipulated that Taoist priests must become monks and live in meditation, strictly abide by the precepts, suffer for themselves and benefit others.
These theoretical things were of little help to him, and what he needed was the method of spiritual cultivation that was inducted from these classics.
Logan was flipping through a yellowed codex this day, the more he looked at it, the more strange he felt, because this codex didn't match the preface, he carefully groped for the paper, and found that it was a little thicker, Rogan had an idea, took out a scalpel from the space-time bead space, carefully opened the pages, and found that each page had a sandwich, Rogan took out the sandwich paper as thin as a cicada's wings, and found that there was a fly-sized self on it, and after careful reading, he found that this was Wang Chongyang's lifelong learning and cultivation experience, which not only contained all the martial arts secrets of the Quanzhen Sect, It also included innate skills, which made Logan very excited after being surprised, and immediately quietly put Wang Chongyang's notes and yellowed books into the space-time beads, pretending to stay for another hour before leaving, and hurriedly returned to the ancient tomb.
