Chapter 14: The Three Forces of Heaven and Earth ()

Two days have passed since the Purple Xuan Pavilion was punished, and Sean had already set off to Guangzhou to pick up Chen Fan, and Chen Tao and Xie Ling were going to Shanghai after participating in today's Zhongyuan Water Saving 6 Festival to propose to the Xie family. On this day, the people of the entire Chenjiachong will cooperate with the water 6 puja, do not kill, eat vegetarian fasting, and everyone will put a brazier on the door, and when entering and exiting the door, they will burn some ingots and candles to worship the wandering souls of the Quartet. The Hundred Zhangs Golden Body Bodhisattva that appeared in Chen's house two days ago has become the most talked about thing by the people of the Chen family in the past few days, and many merchants who were originally just preparing to pass by also stopped because they saw such a vision, and waited for the water 6 puja to continue their journey.

The rumor that the Chen family held the Water 6 Festival and the Golden Body Bodhisattva was not only circulated in Chenjiachong, but also spread quickly throughout the provincial capital of Shaoguan and some surrounding big cities, and many believers gathered here day and night, in order to participate in this grand event and pray for their families. It is precisely for this reason that the number of people who poured into Chenjiachong was two or three times greater than usual, but fortunately, Chen Deshang had already prepared to set up tents on some wasteland around Chenjiachong, so that no one would sleep on the streets because the inn was full.

Since leaving the Chen family's house yesterday, Chen Deshang has already sent someone to guard Xu Changqing's Peach Blossom Mountain, in case some young people who come with believers come to disturb Xu Changqing. After a long night with Xu Changqing, Chen Deshang's trust in Xu Changqing increased a lot, and he did not suspect that his son was robbed because of Xu Changqing, but listened to Xu Changqing's words, focused on the north, and began to prepare some matters to repair relations with that person.

Xu Changqing retreated and recuperated in Yizhuang for a day and a night, without using any magic techniques to repair his injuries, but only relying on the merits he obtained, he slowly let the power of merit penetrate into the ** with the repair of the wounds in the body. In time, as long as the merit is enough, he can build a golden body of merit that is inviolable, and at that time, even if it is a catastrophe of heaven and earth, it is impossible to hurt him in the slightest, which is one of the many means by which Xu Changqing should be tribulated, although he himself thinks that this is a bit out of reach.

Xu Changqing didn't sit still this day, but took out the Shi family's magic trick and read it carefully. He once mentioned to the old Taoist priest that if the Shijia side door followed the manuscript to practice the Shijia Shenda, he would inevitably suffer from the evil spirits, and there was no other, just because there was a rune from the first generation of the Shijia Shenda in the Ming Dynasty hidden in the last page cover of the Shijia Shenda. According to the secret book of Xu Changqing's classics, although the Shi family claims to be able to invite the true spiritual power of the gods and Buddhas, in fact, there are only three gods that the Shi family can really invite, the first is Emperor Guan Sheng, the second is the heavenly master Zhong Kui who is worshiped by many people, and the third is an evil god, that is, the Monkey King in Journey to the West.

Emperor Guan Sheng and Heavenly Master Zhong Kui are both Chinese righteous gods, with the divine power to drive away evil spirits and destroy demons, while this Monkey King is completely different. His original form is an Indian monkey god Haluman mentioned in the Tantric classics handed down from the Tang Dynasty, and later someone built a monkey temple for him and worshiped it as a local god in China. It wasn't until the book Journey to the West in the Ming Dynasty came out that this exotic monkey god had an official name and title for Central Plains Huaxia, and his divine power was also planned, and the monkey temple at this time was changed to the Great Holy Temple.

Xu Changqing and the nine-stream idlers of the past dynasties were skeptical about whether there were gods between heaven and earth, and in his master's generation, they completely denied the existence of gods. Although the Shi family god can borrow the power of the gods, so that they are inviolable, and the power is infinite, but according to Master Xu Changqing's point of view, it will definitely not be the power of the gods. He traveled all over the country, and personally went to the places where the so-called gods became enlightened or were born, and from the local county chronicles and township chronicles, he could not find the deeds of the gods before they became people, and the so-called relics of enlightenment were only added by descendants through legends.

Although he did not have the true face of the gods, he did show the few gods invited by the god of the Shi family, and they were all the gods with the most believers among the people. Among them, it is needless to say that Emperor Guan Sheng and Celestial Master Zhong Kui spontaneously combusted, and there are also many believers in the Monkey King in the novel. In the folk Dasheng Temple, the status is almost equal to that of the Guanyin Temple, and many people hope to get a child who is as clever as Sun Monkey. In addition, there are some Buddhist temples that also worship the Buddha who fights to defeat the Buddha, and many cult forces regard the Monkey King as believing in the righteous god, so it seems that the Monkey King has a little more evil spirit.

According to Master Xu Changqing's classification, there are three kinds of forces in heaven and earth that can help people improve their own Dao cultivation with external forces. The first is the common aura of heaven and earth, but today's aura of heaven and earth, compared to before the Sui and Tang dynasties, is like the sea and the lake, which cannot be compared. It is precisely because the aura of heaven and earth was extremely strong before the Sui and Tang dynasties, and there were many people who could truly cultivate and attain the Tao, and there were countless immortals and Buddhas who had major repairs.

It's just that I don't know why after the five dynasties and ten kingdoms, the amount of heaven and earth aura is getting worse and worse, the Song Dynasty is not bad, and the next Yuan Dynasty, Ming Dynasty, and Qing Dynasty have nearly six or seven hundred years, and those who really have major cultivation are rare, and they can be counted on almost five fingers. Nowadays, there are no people who want to absorb the aura of heaven and earth to cultivate the Tao, most of them have only touched a little edge of the avenue, and they can already be called masters, and the aura of heaven and earth has become mixed and is no longer suitable for cultivators to collect qi and refine the body.

The second is the method used by the vast majority of righteous path practitioners today, accumulating merit and relying on the merits of heaven and earth to achieve immortal Buddha Dao fruits. Although the aura of heaven and earth is about to disappear, the merits of heaven and earth will always remain. The merits of heaven and earth cannot directly improve the realm of the cultivator's natal **, but it can speed up the cultivator's cultivation, and it can also make the Dao Heart Buddha heart more stable, and will not be lightly harmed by the attracted demons, and if you can achieve the meritorious golden body, you don't have to worry about any natural disasters**.

It's a pity that although the merits are good, there are very few great merits that can really be of great help to the practitioners, and the merits of making merit pay attention to chance, not just what you want, but if you force it, it will give birth to demons in your heart, and your cultivation will be wasted. The first generation of Yizhuang owners asked the Chen family to spend a lot of money to hold a grand water 6 puja every year to save those wandering spirits and wild ghosts, just to accumulate merit. However, he later realized that the merits of the Tao obtained by holding the Water 6 Puja were far less than the merits obtained by killing an evil demon who harmed the world, so he transferred the merits to the Chen family's Yin Mansion to continue the luck of the Chen family's hidden dragon lair. Originally, it could only last one generation, but it was the first generation of Yizhuang owners to use this method to continue for seven or eight generations, if it were not for the catastrophe of heaven and earth, the mountains and rivers were broken, and the luck was exhausted, maybe this hidden dragon cave could continue.

The third power of heaven and earth is the most mysterious power of heaven and earth. The power of the wish comes from the hope of the future in the hearts of people, and its potential is very great, and it will never be exhausted, and there is no limit to the number. But it is precisely because the power of desire comes from the most selfish side of people that the composition of the power of desire is extremely complex, and it is uneven and evil. In the world, there are only two people who can really borrow the power of desire to cultivate, and will not be harmed, the first is the Jiuhua Mountain Secret Collection of the King of the Bodhisattva Wish Hongzhi Heart Sutra, the second is the Shijia Shenda, and the rest such as Guanyin Dao, Yihe Boxing God Fighting, White Lotus Divine Technique and so on, it is not **.

At this moment, Xu Changqing could not immediately cultivate the Shi family's divine fight, in addition to his own vitality had not yet recovered, more importantly, he also lacked a divine object, that is, a divine statue. For inviting the gods, it is natural that the longer the age of worship, the better, Xu Changqing has already thought about this, he asked Chen Tao to telegraph to his third brother Chen Zhenshan yesterday, asking him to buy back the statue of Emperor Guan on the Shanghai incense altar of the Qingbang for nearly two hundred years.

Chen Zhenshan's original name was Chen Wenbin, Chen Deshang's five sons and two daughters, the one who did not let him worry about the most, since he was a child, he liked to do something brave and ruthless, bullying and dominating the market, and later disliked his name for being too weak, and changed the family tree without authorization, changed his name to Chen Zhenshan, and was almost expelled from the house by his father. After that, he used his father's power in various places to make friends with underworld leaders such as the Elders' Association, Hongmen, and the Green Gang, and knew a lot of things on the rivers and lakes. In the end, he ran away from home and ran to Shanghai alone, and made a name for himself with his ability, worshipping under the door of a young man of the Green Gang, and becoming one of the few hooligan tycoons on the beach. After Chen Deshang learned about Chen Zhenshan's whereabouts, he was so angry that he almost died, but Xu Changqing cast a spell to save him. After that, Chen Deshang simply regarded as having never given birth to this son, and no one was allowed to mention this son, so few outsiders knew that Chen Zhenshan, the chief scoop of the Xinglong who dominated the thirteen wharves in Shanghai, was the son of Chen Deshang, the head of the Chen family, the largest force in the south of the Yangtze River.

Unlike Chen Fan, the relationship between Xu Changqing and Chen Zhenshan is the best among the younger generation of the Chen family, and Chen Zhenshan is also one of the few people who was allowed by Xu Changqing to spend the night in Taohuashan Yizhuang, and he knows better about the strength of Xu Changqing's Taoism than others or even Chen Deshang. Although there is not much difference in age between the two, Chen Zhenshan is a registered disciple accepted by Xu Changqing as an exception, and taught him a lot of side-door Taoism and some secular martial arts, which is one of the reasons why Chen Zhenshan was able to gain a foothold in Shanghai so quickly and create a foundation single-handedly. For Xu Changqing's request, Chen Zhenshan would never refuse, so not long after Xu Changqing sent a telegram, Chen Zhenshan replied that he had already obtained the statue of Emperor Guan, and sent someone to transport it from the Yangtze River waterway, and it would arrive in nine days.

In Yizhuang, Xu Changqing's mind retreated from the Dao Heart Realm, and he had already evolved the Shi Family Divine Third Rank Realm and the cultivation process more than a thousand times in the Dao Heart Realm. It can be said that now that he knows more about the Shi family's divine beating than the Shi family, he can start cultivating after waiting for the statue of Emperor Guan to be sent. However, before cultivating, he still had two things to do, one was to refine all the corpse qi in the hundreds of gourds in the side room of the main house, and the other was to take advantage of the opening of the ghost door tonight and the light of the Water 6 Puja to guide the way, and send the more than 2,000 uncontrollable resentful souls accumulated in the past few years into the reincarnation of the ghost path.

Although Yizhuang's magic weapons and items were complete, there were still a few things that needed to be prepared temporarily, so Xu Changqing left Yizhuang and walked towards the mountain city. On the way, Xu Changqing met a merchant from Chen Jiachong who had rushed back from other places to participate in the Water 6 Festival, so he got into his carriage and talked to him in a very approachable way to learn about some current affairs in the outside world. Xu Changqing, the owner of Yizhuang, is a big man on an equal footing with the head of the Chen family, although it is not clear why the previous heads of the Chen family respect the master of Yizhuang so much, but the content that vaguely circulates from the mouths of the servants of the Chen family can know that the masters of Yizhuang in the past dynasties are hermits and masters with great ability. Seeing Xu Changqing greet him so cordially and talk, the businessman of Chen Jiachong naturally felt flattered, and he knew everything about Xu Changqing's problems.

Now the outside world can be said to be in a mess, and many people who hold military power have also begun to disobey the Qing court, so that the Qing court has to transfer the Beiyang Army to the south, and use the strength of the Beiyang New Army to suppress their impulsive hearts. Everyone knows very well that if it weren't for the fact that the Qing court had the Beiyang New Army in hand, I was afraid that if I didn't know how many people would be kings and how many people would be emperors. Although the Beiyang New Army was transferred to the south, there were still many revolutionaries of all sizes in the south, and although they were quickly suppressed and extinguished by the Beiyang New Army, their momentum was also increasing. Anyone with a discerning eye can see very clearly that the Manchu Qing Dynasty is running out of energy, and that the victory of the revolutionary party is only a matter of time.

On the way into the city, many Chen Jiachong people saluted Xu Changqing, which made the businessman who was the owner of the horse also feel very honored.

After entering the mountain city, Xu Changqing got out of the carriage and was about to go to the paper shop at the north end, when the merchant also hurriedly jumped out of the carriage, stopped in front of Xu Changqing, and saluted him respectfully: "Mr. Xu, you are a master with great ability! Recently, it has been a little difficult in the small business, so the little cheeky please Mr. give the villain a batch, so that the villain can turn evil into good fortune." ”

Xu Changqing was stunned, it was the first time he had encountered such a thing stopping him on the street to ask for a hexagram, he looked at this slightly chubby merchant carefully, and said, "You should have just moved to Chenjiachong for a short time, right?"

The merchant hurriedly smiled and replied, "Sir, the little one has only moved here for two years, but most of the time he is doing business outside!"

Xu Changqing smiled and said: "No wonder you stopped me like this and begged for approval, as long as the people who have lived in Chenjiachong for a long time know that except for the day of the Shangyuan Lantern Festival, I will give people fortune telling and fortune telling during the year, and I will not make hexagrams at other times." ”

The merchant was stunned after hearing this, he didn't expect Xu Changqing to have such a rule, and he didn't know what to say for a while. At this time, the people of Chen Jiachong, who were surrounded around, shouted coaxing, laughing at him for not knowing the depths, which made him even more embarrassed.

"That's enough, all the folks are scattered!" Xu Changqing frowned, and said to the people around him, those who watched the excitement naturally didn't dare to stay and dispersed quickly, but there were still a few small splashes who were mixed nearby and hid in the tea house where they rested on the side, wanting to see how the merchants ended up for future talks.

"The little one really doesn't know that Mr. still has this rule, it's really rude and rude! The little one won't delay Mr. anymore, let's leave! I'll leave!" The merchant wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked embarrassed and panicked, and hurriedly got out of the way, kept bowing his waist to accompany the sin, and retreated.

"You don't have to be like this!" Xu Changqing stretched out his hand to help him up, and said with relief: "I don't pick so many carriages, but I just pick your carriage to sit in, there seems to be some fate in it! ”
