Since then, Zhang Lu has stayed in Zhongding in Jingmur Mountain and studied Taoism with Pei Xuanren. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info To say that although the scenery room is a mountain in the world, but perhaps influenced by the Taoist magic method, Zhang Lu went out to take a look, but saw layers of clouds and mist, the whole surrounded by the mountains, and the sea of clouds, all year round warm as spring, the grass and trees are long and lush.

Zhang Lu didn't notice it at first, it was early autumn when he came, and he thought that it was normal for the temperature on the top of the mountain to be slightly lower than two or three degrees below, but the temperature was almost constant and always unchanged. He tried to carve a day on a big tree outside the hut, and it was a day, two days...... It's been a month, two months...... Theoretically, it's time for winter, but how can everything from the temperature to the scenery not change?

Standing on the top of the middle tripod and looking out, there are occasional gaps in the thick sea of clouds, and you can see the mountains in the distance, at this time it is already a vast area, and I don't know whether it is covered by the eternal frost and snow, or just the grass and trees withering, revealing the true color of the rock and soil layer. He ran to ask Pei Xuanren, and Pei Xuanren replied with a smile: "The so-called 'no cold and heat in the mountains' is also." ”

Pei Xuanren first taught Zhang Lu to lay the foundation, "solid refinement and practice qi", the specific method is a bit like the qigong of later generations, to put on a certain posture (generally sitting cross-legged, with the chest on the top, the palms are naturally stacked in front of the abdomen, the palms are upward), the eyes are inward, and the qi in the body is guided.

To say that Zhang Lu crossed over before the youth, there was a period of popular qigong craze in the society, because he liked martial arts novels, he also studied with a neighbor uncle, and meditated for more than a month, he really felt the existence of internal breath, and he had to carry away two big weeks every day. However, after another month, the internal breath has always remained in a state of nothingness, virtual and unreal, and after the luck is finished, except for a little sleepiness, I don't feel that it is beneficial to the body. He ran to ask the uncle, and the other party replied to him with a smile: "This qigong is very simple to practice, but if you want to achieve something, it is not so easy. If you continue to practice, you will definitely be able to strengthen your body and prolong your life. ”

Oh my God, one or twenty years? If Zhang Lu had been an old man at that time, he was still an eleven or twelve-year-old lively and agile young man, where would he have that perseverance and perseverance? So he was deflated on the spot, and after that, he fished for three days and dried his nets for two days, and when this trend passed, he naturally put the exercises behind.

But now Pei Xuanren's teaching, compared to what the neighbor's uncle taught, I don't know how many times more complicated, not only to "think about the five stars, the body like the five spirits", but also in response to different times, the way to carry it on Sunday is not the same. It's just that the effect is also very obvious, Zhang Lu has only practiced for a few days, and he feels that his spirit is vigorous, and even his body seems to be much lighter, and he does not feel tired at all. And gradually, he no longer needs to sleep, just meditate for a while, and he is naturally refreshed.

The effect gradually evolves into a driving force. He was originally an otaku, and he could sit in front of the computer all day without moving his nest, and after crossing over, this new body was also more tolerant of loneliness - Zhang's family education was very strict, and Zhang Lu was supervised by the elders of the clan since he was a child, but he knew that he studied the Five Classics and rarely got involved in the worldly affairs - so he gritted his teeth and persevered. This is probably a completely unthinkable thing for oneself in the previous life.

And living on a high mountain, except for watching the sun rise and the moon set, there was not much to do. Pei Xuanren seems to have cultivated to the point of getting home, and it is said that he is expected to break through the realm and soar in his early 400s, but he is still a half-immortal body, and he cannot reach the realm of completely "Bigu", although the amount of food is obviously smaller than that of ordinary people - it is estimated that the main energy intake comes from the so-called "harvesting the aura of heaven and earth, and absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon" - after all, he also has to eat and drink. There is well water next to the thatched hut, and the food comes from the wild vegetables and wild fruits picked nearby, since the grass and trees are said to not wither in winter (theoretically there is no winter and summer), food is naturally not scarce.

The best thing is that Taoists can't help eating meat, and after Zhang Lu cultivated to be light and healthy, he often broke through the sea of clouds, ran halfway up the mountain to catch rabbits, dig birds' nests, and came back to roast and beat his teeth. Although it lacks enough salt and spices, it is like a cloud of mud compared to the delicacies of the previous life, but if it is compared to the mortal world under the mountain in this life, it seems to be a little better - unless it is really rich and expensive, and the landlord's family has no surplus food in this year, this is really Zhang Lu When he was a child, he never ate meat so freely.

Because Pei Xuanren himself doesn't eat meat, as long as he gets meat dishes, the whole child will be full of Zhang Lu's belly.

During this time, Zhang Jian did not show up, although Pei Xuanren did not let Zhang Lu run too far - the farthest is to the mountainside, the mountain road is rugged, the strata are towering, and there is no home, and he can't turn out all day, and as long as the sky is dark, no matter how far he runs, Pei Xuanren can find it and take Zhang Lu back to Zhongding - but he occasionally goes down the mountain twice to inquire about the situation in the mortal world, and after he comes back, he tells Zhang Lu to know without concealment.

So Zhang Lu heard about it, and sure enough, on the day after he was photographed, the Yuan Shao brothers instructed the Xiyuan army to burn the Qingzuomen, rushed into the palace, and killed all the eunuchs; then Dong Zhuo took the opportunity to lead the army to rush into Luoyang City, and then killed the ruling Jinwu Ding Yuan, and annexed the Bingzhou army; in September, he deposed the young emperor, demoted him to the king of Hongnong, and helped Chen Liuwang to practice the pole - Zhang Lu then understood that the king of Chen Liu, who dared to love the past, was the future emperor of Han Xian - in November, he proclaimed himself Xiangguo......

As for Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, compared to Dong Xiangguo today, their identities are very low, and Pei Xuanren didn't really go deep into Luoyang City to listen to the news, so he couldn't tell him about the whereabouts of those two. It is only known that many scholars and bureaucrats have turned their backs on Dong Zhuo, escaped from the capital, and went to the Kanto, it is said that now the undercurrent in the Kanto region is surging, and there seems to be a joint army to defeat Dong Zhuo.

Zhang Luxin said that I know this, but it is also "the princes of the Eighteen Roads begging Dong Zhuo". Okay, just wait for when they will raise their troops and kill near Luoyang City, and then ask Pei Xuanren to send me down the mountain and send me to the coalition barracks.

But when the Chinese New Year was about to begin, Zhang Jian finally reappeared.

Above this middle ding, the grass grows and the shrubs are luxuriant, so a small open space is circled in the middle, and the vines are wrapped with natural shrubs as a courtyard fence, and in the courtyard are three thatched huts, surrounded by a well. The thatched hut on the east side is where Zhang Lu lived, which is where he first woke up, and on the west side is Pei Xuanren's room, and the central room is stacked with miscellaneous items and many books. Zhang Lu has nothing to do, and after obtaining Pei Xuanren's consent, he often runs to flip through books. He thinks that galloping in troubled times, it is best to allow Wen Yunwu, this light will fight, and it will be the life of a general for a lifetime - Guan Erye will at least read "Spring and Autumn" every night.

And the memory of this life also told him how important learning (mainly Confucian classics, of course) was to scholars. His Zhang family foundation is not thick, and after he became a lang, he was often looked down upon by some colleagues from big families. So what is the difference between the big family and the so-called single family? The difference lies in how much you read. The family has a thick family background and countless books in the clan, not only have officials of more than 2,000 stones in a row, but also have to be full of Confucianism, so that they can be majestic in front of others.

The reason why Yuan Shao's signboard was brighter than Cao Cao at the beginning was not only because of his family's "Four Worlds and Three Dukes" - Cao Cao's father also did the Third Dukes - but because the Yuan family in Runan was a big family, so his status was high and his prestige was famous. Zhang Luxin said that it would be good if he could directly cross into a disciple of the Yuan clan or a descendant of the Yingchuan Xun clan...... Now that there is no way to enrich the family and ancestors, at least you have to enrich yourself first.

Besides, Zhang Jian stabbed him, and he appeared quietly. One day, Zhang Lu was meditating in his hut, and after carrying Zhou Tian, when he opened his eyelids, he first saw Zhang Jian, and he didn't know when he came in, so he was sitting in front of him, looking at himself with a smile. Zhang Lu was taken aback - since he was refining qi, his ears and eyes are much sharper than ordinary people, even when he looks inward, he can detect any mosquito flying in front of his eyes, but Zhang Jian is here, he has not checked anything.

Sure enough, it's an immortal, and it's indeed a bit of a Taoist.

immediately saluted Zhang Jian. Zhang Jian smiled and pointed to his face: "You have to be born, and you have to pull it out?"

The beard does not grow forever once it is plucked, Zhang Lu has been cultivating in the mountain for several months, and the fur on his lips has grown again, but this time he doesn't dare to pull it out casually - even if Zhang Rang is dead, who knows if he will meet any eunuchs who will take a fancy to him after going down the mountain in the future. shook his head at the moment and said: "Brother don't play with me, ......" But when I think about it, Zhang Jian's real age is older than Pei Xuanren, and he is a fairy, and he is called a brother again, is this appropriate?

Zhang Jian didn't care, but said to Zhang Lu: "I know why I feel your suffering, so I took it." After you went, the Xiyuan army entered the palace to kill the eunuchs, and most of the people who were unwanted in Zhulang and Shangshu were killed by mistake. If you are still here, I am afraid that it will be inevitable. ”

When Zhang Lu heard this, he couldn't help but tremble slightly, and said that it was dangerous. So he thanked Zhang Jian: "The virtue of saving each other cannot be repaid...... Zhang Jian waved his hand and said that you can cultivate on the mountain with peace of mind, which is the greatest reward for me. Then the conversation changed: "Xuan Renyun, you don't want to cultivate the Immortal Dao, Shang Si went down the mountain to answer the proverb, is it true?"

Zhang Lu hurriedly cleared it up and said that the inexplicable proverb had anything to do with me...... I just feel that the Immortal Dao is too ethereal, and I haven't set foot on the quality of cultivating for hundreds of years, so I'd better find an opportunity to let me return to the red world. Zhang Jian persuaded him: "You really should say that Zhang should replace Liu, life is short, and life is sad to be seventy, how can you cultivate the immortal path, and you can be immortal with heaven and earth? ”

Zhang Lu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, saying Is this possible? Zhang Jian pointed to his nose: "Although I am a young seeker, and I have really entered the mountain to cultivate the Tao after I am seventy years old, I will soar to the age of one hundred and ten. "It's only been less than forty years for me.

Zhang Luxin said that if you don't come to teach me personally, let Pei Xuanren teach me - after cultivating for almost 400 years and not soaring, that thing is simply a 10,000-year repeater, can he be a good teacher?

As if seeing through Zhang Lu's thoughts, Zhang Jian explained with a smile: "Cultivation is in cultivation, not learning, learning from his teacher, cultivating in his own ......" The so-called "master leads the door, and cultivation is in the individual", although Pei Xuanren's qualifications are a little worse, and his cultivation is a little slower, but when you are a teacher, it is more than enough to lead you into the door.

immediately changed the topic, and said to Zhang Lu: "You learned weapons from me in the past, and you seem to want to join the army and make a name for yourself. However, if you cultivate the immortal path, thousands of horses and thousands of armies can be wiped out with a wave of your hand, then there are trivial things, what is there to love?"

Zhang Lu thought that this made sense, no matter how hard I practiced martial arts, it was unlikely that I would be able to pass the level, Zhang, and Zhao, and it was difficult to be the opponent of Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi in terms of the art of war, but if I could cultivate the Immortal Dao, maybe I could pinch off Guan Erye with one finger - provided that he had not yet become a saint - in this case, it was better to practice on the mountain for a while, but I was not in a hurry to go down the mountain to break through.

So he asked Zhang Jian, saying that he really wanted to cultivate the immortal path...... Zhang Jian said: "Even in terms of Xuanren, if you cultivate for another ten years, you can shrink the ground into inches, and you can reach thousands of miles in one day......."

Zhang Lu pursed his lips lightly, and said in his heart that there is nothing to boast about. The weights and measures of the Han Dynasty were generally smaller than those of later generations, even if you multiply the number by ten or 10,000 li according to what you said, it will only be 3,000 kilometers in later generations. 3,000 kilometers in 24 hours, 150 kilometers per hour, without the need for high-speed trains, I can reach this speed in a green car. If spells weren't as good as science, they wouldn't have much appeal to him from 1,800 years later.

“...... You don't need to eat much, and you can always take a pill for the whole year......"

Zhang Luxin said, "It's a medicine that is three parts poison", not to mention the things refined by Taoist priests, nine out of nine eat the dead and don't pay for their lives, so they need to be cautious......

“...... Wading in the water without invading, and entering the fire without scorching ...... "Well, Zhang Luxin said that this is amazing, and the magic defense is high enough...... Or more accurately, elemental defense is strong enough. But that's not what I'm asking — "Can you kill someone?"

Zhang Jian frowned slightly, and said that I just said that "thousands of horses and thousands of troops can be wiped out with a wave of their hands" is just an analogy, and you are still serious-"Cultivating immortals is also for the sake ......of self-protection and cultivation, not for the sake of being strong and competing to win, let alone killing?"

Zhang Lu clapped his palms, and said in his heart that this was done, so he said: "I don't know what will happen the day after tomorrow, that is, I am willing to cultivate from Master Pei today, and observe the effect of the ear." "If I am slow in my cultivation, or if I don't see any results for a long time, then I will definitely ask you to send me down the mountain. If you fix it fast enough...... Then I will soon be able to surpass Pei Xuanren, are you still afraid that he will not succeed? As long as you Zhang Jian is not there, you will be able to go down the mountain by yourself if you "shrink the ground into inches".

Zhang Jian nodded with relief, and then his words suddenly teleported: "When I went up the mountain before, I heard the Gu Immortal language coming out of your mouth, how could I know it?"

Zhang Lu was quite confused: "Hu is the Gu Immortal Language?"

Zhang Jian stared at his eyes, coughed lightly, and suddenly said: "When you went up the mountain, what did you say about traveling through history and cultivating the truth of immortals, what did you mean?"

Damn! Zhang Lu jumped up on the spot: "Did you also cross over?!"
