Chapter 9 Appealing to the name and shaping the life
Senior Brother stepped forward, looked at Zhang Xiyun, and asked after a while, "Do you want to worship Yuxuan Peak?"
Zhang Xiyun saluted respectfully: "Disciple Zhang Xiyun just wants to enter the Xuanfeng lineage. ”
Senior Brother waved his hand, a smile appeared on his face, turned around, and said, "Then you can come with me." ”
The senior brother walked forward slowly, Zhang Xiyun followed behind, Chen Chen thought about it and followed, this test of entering the pulse is different, almost everyone on this peak succeeded in different trials back then, and they also learned different five methods, he successfully triggered the trial for the first time that year, and he has never seen several others, and he wants to follow up to see and see.
Senior Brother stopped, turned his head and said, "Chenchen, you don't have to follow. ”
Chen Chen looked aggrieved: "Senior brother, don't I just want to see and see." ”
The elder brother didn't answer, just turned his head.
Chen Chen touched his head and said unwillingly: "Okay, I'll go." He glanced at Zhang Xiyun again, "I hope you can succeed, and in the future, if I am not the youngest disciple of the peak, I will not be arranged so many chores." With that, he walked back.
Zhang Xiyun heard Chen Chen's words, and looked at Chen Chen's departing figure and couldn't cry or laugh. Senior Brother walked forward again, Zhang Xiyun hurriedly retracted his gaze and followed Senior Brother.
The senior brother took Zhang Xiyun all the way to the peak, and it was not until he reached a huge cave at the end of the peak that the senior brother stopped.
"It's here. ”
Zhang Xiyun looked around, there were cliffs on three sides, only a huge cave in front of him, Zhang Xiyun looked at the senior brother and asked, "What should the disciple do?"
Senior Brother raised his hand and pointed to the entrance of the cave, "Do you see the six stones there?"
Zhang Xiyun looked at the place pointed by the senior brother, and there were three half-human-high stones on the left and right of the entrance of the huge cave.
Zhang Xiyun looked at Senior Brother suspiciously, "The disciple doesn't understand what to do. ”
Senior Brother motioned for Zhang Xiyun to follow him forward, and walked to the three stones on the right, and Senior Brother pointed to the three stones on the left, "These six stones record the six methods taught by the Master, you put your hand on it, if you can make any one of them shine, trigger the test, and pass it, you will be able to worship Yuxuan Peak." ”
Zhang Xiyun nodded, took a step forward, and saw that the six boulders were not surprising, each stone seemed to be engraved with a line of small characters, perhaps because of the erosion of time, most of it had already been worn out, and it was impossible to see what was written.
Zhang Xiyun didn't ask much, walked to the first boulder, put his hand lightly, five breaths passed, there was no movement, the senior brother watched from the side, and just said lightly: "Try the next one." ”
Zhang Xiyun was not disappointed, and then put his hand on the second boulder, still without the slightest reaction, the senior brother still didn't say anything, Zhang Xiyun himself walked in front of the third boulder.
However, as if the plot was repeated, Zhang Xiyun did not let it shine in a row of six boulders.
After the last attempt, Zhang Xiyun couldn't hide the disappointment on his face, but the senior brother was not surprised at all, as if he had expected it.
Zhang Xiyun withdrew his hand, laughed at himself, and said, "It seems that I am not qualified to worship Yuxuan Peak." "In my heart, I was thinking that my great-grandfather let me deliberately suppress it and not enter the Seven Peaks to come here to apprentice, but I didn't expect that I was not even qualified to carry out the Yuxuan Peak trial.
In fact, how could Murong Guyu not think of this matter, just thinking about letting his grandson give it a try, if it doesn't work, Murong Guyu has other ideas, if it happens, then it will naturally be better.
The senior brother just replied lightly: "Let's go, there are still many places suitable for you in this Tianqiong Baimai, but you are not suitable here." ”
Zhang Xiyun turned around, sighed, and was about to go back with the senior brother.
Before leaving, Zhang Xiyun glanced back at this huge cave, thinking to himself, I don't know what is in this cave, is there still a cultivation secret book of the Xuanfeng lineage?
Zhang Xiyun glanced at it randomly, and was about to leave, when he suddenly felt a sense of familiarity, and for a moment the whole person seemed to freeze, staring at the cave in front of him.
Senior Brother walked in front, as if he noticed Zhang Xiyun's strange appearance, turned around, but saw Zhang Xiyun's face was strange, staring straight at the cave, so he walked over and asked, "Zhang Xiyun, what are you doing, this cave is a place for master cultivation, don't be rude!"
Zhang Xiyun didn't pay attention to the words of the senior brother, he only felt that his mouth was dry, looking at the place above the cave that was hidden by the weeds on the wall, four words that could not be seen clearly if he didn't look carefully, if it was just four words, how could Zhang Xiyun's expression change greatly, what really made him feel that familiarity was the font of those four words, that was a kind of oracle bone inscription, in his previous life, his parents were archaeologists, and he was familiar with history since he was a child, and he was able to write an article on the oracle bone inscription in high school, and he naturally came into contact with and learned too many ancient characters.
At that time, the earliest dynasty on earth was the Shang, using an oracle bone script, and he had taught himself ancient Chinese characters, one of which was Shangwen!
Zhang Xiyun read out word by word: "Sue the name and shape the life?"
The senior brother on the side was about to call Zhang Xiyun again, but when he heard the four words he pronounceed, his face suddenly changed greatly, and his heart turned a huge wave.
There seemed to be a tremor in Senior Brother's voice; Can you read that?"
Zhang Xiyun nodded stiffly.
Without waiting for the senior brother to ask again, there was a sudden strong wind here, and it was a cloudless and good weather, but suddenly the sun thundered, and the entire mountain peak seemed to tremble.
There was an old, tired, but unconcealed sound of excitement from the huge cave.
"That little doll outside, you come in. ”
When the senior brother heard this voice, he removed the look on his face and said to Zhang Xiyun: "You go in, this is the master who let you in." ”
Zhang Xiyun didn't recover from the shock, Senior Brother stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, "Come in, it seems that I was wrong, you have a relationship with the lineage, little junior brother." Then he left alone in the rain.
Zhang Xiyun settled down, looked at the four-character business text at the entrance of the cave again, and then walked towards the cave step by step.
The entrance of this cave is very large, but the passage is very narrow, the passage is dark, Zhang Xiyun had to move forward slowly, he reached out and touched the stone walls on both sides, the stone walls on both sides of the stone cave are extremely smooth, there is a burst of cold air to the touch, it is not clear in the dark, but the place where the soles of the feet are stepped on is also like flat ground, unlike the general mountain road is uneven, not even stones, but it is also extremely cold.
Zhang Xiyun kept walking forward, until another hole appeared in front of him, which was extremely bright, illuminating this section of the road, and Zhang Xiyun realized that the passage he had just passed was all cold ice, and the entire passage was an ice cave.
Zhang Xiyun walked out of the hole, and the scene in front of him made him feel amazed, just now the entire passage was covered with ice, but the inside was extremely hot, in a ten-foot square space, in the middle of a pillar of fire that rose to the sky, the surrounding stone walls were burned red, Zhang Xiyun just came in, he felt the heat wave hit people, and the sweat began to flow unstoppably.
Zhang Xiyun looked forward fixedly, and saw that in the middle of the pillar of fire, there was an old man sitting cross-legged.
The old man slowly opened his eyes, looked at Zhang Xiyun, and slowly stood up, only to hear the sound of chains colliding.
The old man's hands and feet were locked by four extremely thin iron chains, and the other end of the chain was nailed to the stone wall at the back.
Such an old man who can sit in the pillar of fire must be a fairy figure, even if the iron chain is ten times bigger, it is impossible to lock him, but this small chain, it is naturally unusual to be safe and sound in the pillar of fire, but I don't know who can lock such a fairy figure in this cave.
The old man took a step forward and saw Zhang Xiyun looking at the iron chain behind him, seemed to smile, and said, "The little doll doesn't need to look at it, this is made of ancient rare iron, naturally it is not ordinary." ”
Zhang Xiyun was told that he was breaking his heart, smiled awkwardly, and hurriedly saluted respectfully, and said: "Tianqiong disciple Zhang Xiyun has seen his predecessors, but his predecessors are the masters of the Xuan vein?"
The old man stroked his beard and said, "The old man is the master of this Xuanfeng. ”
Sure enough, Zhang Xiyunfu opened his mouth and asked again: "Why are the seniors trapped here by this iron chain?"
The old man laughed: "Who can trap me in this world now?"
The old man continued: "Little doll, don't believe it, if you enter my mystery, he will naturally know about it, and now I will ask you, can you understand the words engraved in front of the cave?"
Zhang Xiyun didn't dare to hide it, and nodded yes.
When the old man heard Zhang Xiyun's answer, he laughed wildly, and even the cave shook.
"Good, good, good!" the old man seemed very happy, and said hello three times.
I saw the old man take another step forward, looked at Zhang Xiyun with burning eyes, and said, "Little doll, are you willing to worship me as a teacher?"
Zhang Xiyun was stunned for a moment, and complained about the one vein? I once heard my great-grandfather say that the cultivators in the world can be roughly divided into three veins, good martial arts, cautious words, and Pudu!
Cultivators, if they are good at martial arts, will quench their bodies, know the soul refining soldiers in the sea, and practice magical powers.
Cultivators, if they are cautious, they will gather the spirit of Haoran, and the word will weigh a thousand catties, and the word will follow the law.
Practitioners, if they are purdue, then the sea of suffering will turn back, the Dharma is boundless, and they will save all sentient beings with themselves.
The old man saw that Zhang Xiyun was puzzled, and then said: "On the Nine Heavens Thick Earth, how can you practice the method that you mortal cultivators can see?
"Besides, the cautious words are in the same vein, and the words are beautiful, but some people oppose the closed-mouth meditation, pointing to the hook of the book, and crushing a generation of Tianjiao, which can be regarded as a vein?"
"There is also the Pudu lineage, there is a monk who lifts the butcher's knife and uses the butcher's knife to save the world and educate sentient beings, can this be regarded as a vein?"
The old man showed a look of reminiscence on his face, "And in this world, there is still another line, and it was once alone." ”
Zhang Xiyun was shocked, it turned out that there were so many cultivation methods in this world, and his great-grandfather did not say it, presumably just to let himself see them one by one in the future, and he thought that it was only three points, and listening to what the master of the Xuan Vein said, it was probably the one vein he said before!
The old man looked at Zhang Xiyun and said to himself lightly.
"It's just that I will never see the same people competing for glory again"
"I wonder how many people still remember?"
The old man laughed self-deprecatingly, and it was a little desolate.
Zhang Xiyun said in his heart that he had only followed his great-grandfather in the mountains behind Tiansheng Peak since he was a child, and his great-grandfather never talked much about things that were not related to his own cultivation, so that he didn't know anything about these things.
Zhang Xiyun said softly: "Senior, except for you, there is no one who knows the pulse of life?"
The old man chuckled, "Perhaps, outside the five continents, above the Bohai Sea, there is a group of people who may still have a legacy of appealing." ”
"Then what kind of cultivation method are you talking about?" asked Zhang Xiyun.
Hearing Zhang Xiyun's words, the old man turned his head to look at him, as if smiling, "Let me ask you first, why do you know the words on the cave?"
After all, he still asked, Zhang Xiyun sighed in his heart, how can he answer this, could it be that he was not from this world, and he learned it in his previous life?
Seeing that Zhang Xiyun didn't answer, the old man continued: "You don't want to say?"
Zhang Xiyun shook his head and said, "It's not that the disciple is reluctant to say it, it's just"
"But I don't know how to say it?"
Zhang Xiyun looked at the old man in surprise, he was surprised that the old man said that he was born to know, but in the eyes of the old man, it was his own words that hit Zhang Xiyun's mind.
The old man smiled and said, "What did you say was engraved with four characters on the stone cave?"
Zhang Xiyun replied honestly: "Sue the name and shape the life." ”
The old man asked again: "Yes, then do you know what it means to sue for fame and life?"
Zhang Xiyun shook his head.
"Sue for life, first for the name, then for the life. Get fate, and end up shaping life. ”
"Appealing to the name and shaping the life is to appeal to the life, which was created by Fuxi, one of the three emperors!"
