Chapter 28, Taishan Mansion Jun

To say that the right path of cultivating immortals, absorbing the aura of heaven and earth, and changing the physical and mental form, in fact, has nothing to do with supernatural powers, which are just by-products of cultivation. In addition www.biquge.info there are some side shortcuts, which can be assisted, but if you don't have the opportunity to ascend to the immortals, you have to take these left paths as the correct law. Let's make a less appropriate analogy: cultivating immortals is like going to school, ascending immortals is like taking the college entrance examination, the main examination is just a few subjects, and you can get extra points for your art and sports expertise;

These left side doors, Pei Xuanren once introduced to Zhang Lu, are roughly divided into three categories: one is in the room, also known as "the art of male and female harmony", or "the way of yellow and red". For this kind of practice, there are many misinformation among the people, thinking that they must first practice the golden gun, and then pick yin to supplement yang (of course, you can also pick yang to supplement yin), then natural yin and yang are harmonized, can be cowardly and strong, and prolong life - what "the Yellow Emperor's maiden three thousand are to soar" and other strange talks, also once very noisy. In fact, the real room is against **** and frequent intercourse, and it is necessary to pay attention to the "right" time and "right" place, and use the "right" method to intersect with the "right" opposite sex, so as to cultivate one's self and nourish one's life.

The second is to take food, also known as "bait", which is to regulate body functions by eating something special - of course, this can only cultivate life, not nature. This kind of cultivation method is also divided into many levels, the most vain is to take the elixir, claiming to be able to soar in the day - Pei Xuanren said that it is just nonsense, if the immortal has an elixir to take, he will use it first, how can he grant it to mortals? The second level is his own alchemy, but the probability of eating death is very large; the more reliable is that according to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, taking some supplements can produce some benefits to the body; the lowest is eating some inexplicable things, such as drinking urine...... I don't know who told them that eating those things can prolong their lives, and they don't panic......

In addition, Bigu can barely be classified into this category, but instead of eating, it is not eaten. Theoretically speaking, if you cultivate your life to a certain extent, you will be able to absorb the aura of heaven and earth, and your thirst for mortal food will gradually decrease, until you become an immortal, then you don't need to absorb nutrients through your digestive system at all. On the premise that there is no change in body functions, I first want to rely on dieting to adjust the endocrine, even if I don't starve to death, I will be half hungry, and malnutrition is the inevitable result.

It is said that Zhang Liang, the marquis of the early Han Dynasty, was on such a long-term diet that not only failed to strengthen his body, but fell ill for three days. After Liu Bang died, Empress Lu specially summoned Zhang Liang and forced him to eat, saying: "Life is like a white horse passing through a gap, why do you suffer so much?" Zhang Liang was forced to return to a normal diet - otherwise he would have hung up early and would not have lived to be in his sixties.

The third is illusion, also known as "service ghosts". On the surface, being able to communicate with ghosts and gods, and even drive ghosts and gods to work, is actually nothing more than extracting and controlling various fragments of consciousness that remain in the world, so as to confuse the minds of others. Illusion can assist in cultivating one's nature, and at the same time, when you have cultivated your mind to a certain extent, all kinds of illusion can be used as you like. When he reaches the stage of immortals, he creates a new fake world in the void and comes out like playing-just like Liu Lei's "Royal Dragon Pool", which can not only be seen, but also touched, and can evolve naturally, for mortals, this kind of fake is no different from the real.

And Liu Gen is the one who uses illusion - of course, it refers to the "refining truth" period, and has reached the "knotting" stage, Zhang Jujun, Pei Xuanren and others who can soar into immortals at their eyes, even if they don't major in illusion, they are better than Liu Gen. To put it bluntly, the arithmetic masters in primary school can't compare math problems with ordinary high school Chinese students. Liu Gen can also bully and bully the all-round development of morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics, and labor, but he is not satisfied with the scores in all subjects, and Zhang Lu, who is two grades lower than him.

Therefore, Zhang Lu felt that Liu Gen might not be able to compare with Liu Gen's illusion, but he should not lose if he was firm in his mind and only sought self-preservation. Although he hated Liu Gen's inaction and shamelessness, if the other party had reached the level of Pei Xuanren or the like, no matter how indignant he was, he would not dare to call out in person. But I didn't expect Liu Gen's "service ghost" to make him kowtow and admit defeat, took a step back, and actually released a raging flame, Zhang Lu was stupid on the spot - I rely on Lao Tzu but I haven't cultivated to the realm of "entering the fire without scorching, entering the water without wetting", we are still mortals, so we can't bear this kind of big move!

He held the sword in his right hand, and in his left hand he held the "Night Escape Talisman" in his sleeve, instinctively injecting his true qi, but ...... It doesn't work anymore. Pei Xuanren made it clear when he conferred the talisman that day, since the name is "Xiao" escape, this thing is not used in broad daylight and bright days, you have to find a dark place and hide in the shadows before it can take effect. Although it is dark now, in the tent, there are countless large waxes around it, and at this time, there is a circle of flames, and Zhang Lu's whole person is bathed in light, where can I find any shadows?

When he was afraid, his mind was confused, and he almost begged for mercy...... And outside the fire circle, he also remembered Liu Gen's sneer at the right time: "If you don't invite it, when will you wait?"

In fact, these words sound tough, and Liu Gen has already made some concessions - after all, he didn't expect Zhang Lu to be so strong, seeing his father's ghost being bound, not only did he not kneel, but he raised his sword and wanted to stab himself, he Liu Junan has been playing the world for more than 100 years, and he has never seen such a poor young man. And this is in front of Cao Cao, and it was revealed that Zhang Lu's deceased father was also a high-ranking official, if he was too aggressive, it would inevitably cause Cao Cao's bad feelings - the ass is sitting in the position of a bureaucrat, and he must be more sympathetic to Zhang Lu, who was born in the eunuch family. That's why he said "please achieve", which means to seek peace, although there is a "seeking" meaning, the key is "peace".

This is much more magnanimous than asking Zhang Lu to kneel down on the spot and beg for mercy.

In Liu Gen's thoughts, boy, you are stupid this time, if you don't apologize quickly, I won't be very sorry for myself, and if I show the broad-mindedness of a superior person, Cao Mengde will look up to myself from now on. One is that he also knows a little bit about watching the wind and looking at the qi, divination and blame, and knows that Cao Cao has a bright future, and he is just an earth immortal after all, and he really hates the people in power, and he may not be able to eat good fruits - Cao Cao, the assassin of Yanzhou who is now in the hands of the military, can not be the same as the Yingchuan Taishou Shi Prayer that day. Besides, although Zhang Lu is a junior, his master is Pei Xuanren, and he doesn't know how many times deeper the Taoism is than himself.

So I'll give you a step down, boy, hurry up and make peace.

However, before the words fell, he suddenly saw Zhang Lu in the fire ring gritting his teeth, closing his eyes, shrinking his neck, still holding his long sword, and rushing towards him again regardless of it! Liu Gen couldn't help but shudder in his heart-Is this kid really crazy?! Forced to retreat again......

The reason why Zhang Lu dared to come out of the fire was because he was a little panicked in his heart, and he didn't understand the meaning of "please succeed" in Liu Gen's words, he wanted to retreat, but he wanted to kneel down and say for mercy, and he was too humiliated before he faced it--Shi can be killed, but not humiliated! Besides, your circle of fire is too tight, if I really kneel down, the range occupied by the body on the horizontal plane will inevitably increase...... It's not just going to be roasted, it's really going to be caught on fire!

But when he thought of the ancient adage that "a soldier can be killed, not humiliated", Zhang Lu couldn't help but turn around in his mind -- Liu Gen really dared to kill me in front of Cao Cao? If I don't beg for mercy, he can really roast me as a suckling pig? After all, Cao Cao is the master here, and I am a guest invited by the master, not to mention roasting me to death, even if I am half roasted, do you have Cao Cao's consent? He Liu Junan has cultivated into an immortal, no disease and no disaster, and he has to live a long life, he can play the world, why do you want to go to Cao Cao? If you say that you don't want Cao Cao—— For example, delicious food, all kinds of enjoyment, or just to promote his own reputation - just like himself, he just passed by occasionally to take a look, why bother to be introduced by Zhang Miao and officially enter Cao Ying? In this case, does he dare to kill people casually without Cao Cao's consent?

Thinking about it a little deeper, when all the guests in the big tent would sit, he would really dare to set it on fire? As soon as the fire flashed, how could he not hear Cao Cao and the others, as well as the soldiers and servants who were guarding it, exclaiming? They should immediately find water to extinguish the fire--who knows what kind of fire you have, and whether it will burn out and threaten the host and guests? Even directly set fire to all the 100,000 troops, and staged the "burning of the red cliffs" in advance......

Could it be that this circle of fire is actually an illusion? It was Liu Gen who invaded his mind, making him mistakenly think that there was really a fire burning there, and he also felt pain, as if it would be roasted into charcoal in a few moments. If this is a real flame, unless Liu Gen confuses the minds of Cao Cao and the others at the same time, so that they can't see it...... But in an instant, can he really cast spells on so many people at the same time? This is a real possibility, but the probability is not very high.

Lao Tzu categorically can't let this bastard succeed! At that moment, as soon as Zhang Lu gritted his teeth, he planned to fight it -- if it was a fake fire, I would be able to stand out smoothly; if it was a real fire, I would burn the entire tent with the fire, and you could not hurry up and collect the Fa? Do you plan to take Cao Cao and the others all together?!

So Zhang Lu was just stunned, and then he continued to rush forward with his sword, and sure enough, he successfully stood out of the fire ring - he guessed well, it was really just an illusion. Liu Gen was stupid and was forced to retreat again and again, but then he felt a softness in his back and hit the tent - there was no way to retreat.

Zhang Lu's scolding was heard in his ears, as well as the shouts of Cao Cao and others: "Don't hurt Mr. Liu!" Liu Gen felt that his face was hot--this shame is a big loss today, if I can't capture this kid immediately, I will have no face to live in Cao Ying! The last move, see if you can still dodge-

At that moment, the true qi spat outward, penetrating through Zhang Lu's forehead and going to the Shenting acupoint. Everyone watched Zhang Lu draw his sword to stab Liu Gen, but he took two steps forward, paused suddenly, and just called: "Don't hurt Mr. Liu!" Zhang Lu rushed forward again, forcing Liu Gen to retreat to the edge of the tent, and then inexplicably, Zhang Lu stopped again......

Why did Zhang Lu stop again? This time he didn't see any flames dancing wildly or tongues of fire rolling around, and suddenly his eyes were dark, and when he opened up again, he found himself in a wilderness. Zhang Lu was stunned on the spot, and said that Liu Gen knew that he couldn't stop me, so he teleported me away?

But where did this move me? I was about to take a closer look at the surrounding scenery to determine where I was, when suddenly, a figure appeared out of thin air not far in front of me. Zhang Lu fixed his eyes and took a look, this person was dressed very strangely, I saw that he was wearing a flat crown, but there was no drape, wearing a black deep coat with red edges, a jade belt with a horizontal waist, and a knee cover, and some Chinese insects, Zong Yi, pink rice, black and other patterns were embroidered on the knee.

Zhang Luxin said, "Why did a prince pop up here?" And now the official regulation is that virtue follows fire, and clothing is more expensive than yellow, and the sacrificial clothes of the princes and kings should also be ochre yellow, how can it be made black? This has to be the costume of the Shuide Dynasty, right? Either it was the former Han Dynasty, or it was the Qin Dynasty?

Damn, that bastard surnamed Liu won't make Lao Tzu cross again, right?

was in a daze, and saw the person dressed as a king on the opposite side holding a piece of Xuangui in both hands, stepping forward, Sen Ran said: "I, the king of Taishan Mansion, you are dead today, you can go with me, and Hugh will be a disaster in the world!"

Zhang Lu's eyes widened, and he said in his heart No, is there really such a thing as Taishan Fujun?

Taishan Mansion Jun, as the name suggests, is the god of Mount Tai. I don't know when it began, there are folk rumors that the soul returns to Mount Tai after death, so the original mountain god of Qing cultivation took on the heavy responsibility of managing ghosts. It wasn't until Buddhism became popular later that the Ten Halls of Yama snatched the position of the necromancer and the head of hell from the hands of the Emperor of Taishan Mansion, and the latter was renamed Dongyue the Great, although he still claimed to be the main life and the main death, in fact, there was only an empty title left.

Zhang Lu once asked Pei Xuanren, saying that there are immortals and ghosts in this world, so is there any god? Pei Xuanren said: "All things have spirits, but there are no gods?"

Therefore, Taishan also has a god, this Luxin, and the god of Taishan can transform into a human form, well, I can barely accept this setting. But...... Will there really be a Taishan Mansion and be in charge of the souls of the dead?

Taishan Mansion Jun seemed to have seen through Zhang Lu's thoughts, and couldn't help sneering and said, "If you don't believe me, you can try to see." As he spoke, he waved his hand, and saw that the ground between him and Zhang Lu suddenly collapsed, revealing a bottomless hole, and there was a faint red light coming through. Zhang Lu looked down, damn it, it's so scary!

I saw that in the depths of the crypt was red, tumbling magma, and there were countless charred bones struggling in the magma. They no longer had lips and tongues, but they seemed to be howling, and as soon as Zhang Lu looked at it, he felt that the terrible howl had invaded from his ear drums and penetrated his internal organs—this scream was like a sharp sword, as if it was about to completely shatter all the organs and flesh in his body!

"Thou art in the world, but there is killing?"

Taishan Mansion Jun's words were mixed with these screams, and they also pierced Zhang Lu's heart. Zhang Lu couldn't help but think of the robber who stabbed through with his sword in order to save a woman who was almost humiliated, and blurted out unconsciously: "Yes." ”

"If you have slain, let you go into this cave and suffer the burning of the flames, so that you may atone for your sins!"

Zhang Lu couldn't help but shudder, then forced himself to calm down, raised his head, stared at the face of Taishan Mansion Jun, and asked word by word: "Have you heard of hell in disguise?"
