Chapter 313: The Secret of the Dragon Court, Ghost Immortal Q&A

Listening to Liu An's ridicule, Gao Jingfei also showed a smile.

In fact, he doesn't think that the side door is inferior, but the Taoist gate has been established since the Han Dynasty and has been deeply influenced by the Confucian system, so he also attaches great importance to the reputation, which is the difference between the authentic and the side door.

And Liu An is definitely second only to Laozi, Zhuangzi, Guiguzi and other Taoist pioneers, one of the masters of the Waidan Taoism, and the historical status is on par with Ge Hong, the only difference is that Ge Hong passed down the Luofu Taoist system of the Shangqing Dynasty, is a well-known Taoist ancestor immortal, widely worshiped by believers, and Liu An did not establish a sect, plus he was suppressed by the Han Emperor after his death, and the Huainanzi was also scattered among the people, so the reputation was spread, but he failed to be respected as an ancestor in the Taoist Gate, and did not obtain the actual status.

Huainanzi, the overlord of Chu.

Speaking of which, although these two have not seen each other for more than 20 years in their lifetimes, they are not people of the same era, but in this netherworld, they unexpectedly have similar interests and become close friends, and the king of Chu does not mind that Liu An is the descendant of the enemy.

To put it bluntly, he cares more about his behavior of always being willful and acting in the end of defeat than hating Liu Bang during his lifetime.

In addition, Liu An can be regarded as a vassal king who was persecuted by the emperor of the Han family, and the two can be said to have reached an agreement on the force field.

Both monks, Liu An and Gao Jingfei were naturally closer, and they soon chatted together.

"Haha, compared to my nephew, who died only a few hundred years after his death, I have to be a clear ghost, and because of the thoughts of all living beings, I reopened the Huainan Kingdom in this underworld, and I am with Gaozu, Emperor Wu, Guangwu, King Zhongshan and Zhaolie as companions to this day, and it is really a time and a fate!"

The information revealed in Liu An's words is that in the underworld of this world, only Gaozu, Emperor Wu, Emperor Guangwu, and Emperor Zhaolie Liu Bei of the Han Dynasty still survived, and Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan, survived, and the others basically disappeared with time.

But it is also very reasonable to think about it, there are three dynasties of the Han Dynasty, and only the founding emperor Gaozu Liu Bang and the Zhongxing emperor Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, as well as Liu Bei, the founder of the Shu Han Dynasty, are the most famous among the people, and perhaps the founder of the Eastern Han Dynasty "Son of the Plane" and "Great Magician" Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu, but this seems to be more fortunate than strength, and his ink in history is far inferior to the first three.

And Gao Jingfei felt that even if Liu An, the king of Huainan, was not a ghost and immortal, he could still exist to this day, because his book said that there was a book left in the world, that is, the encyclopedic masterpiece "Huainanzi" praised by modern scholar Liang Qichao as "the first class of Han writings".

Huainanzi originally had 21 "inner books", 33 "outer books" and 8 volumes of "middle books", the whole book takes Taoist thought as the main axis, and the content involves political science, philosophy, ethics, history, literature, economics, physics, chemistry, astronomy, geography, agriculture and water conservancy, medicine and health and other fields, and is the most important representative work of Taoist doctrine in the Han Dynasty. It can be said to be the earliest encyclopedia in the history of the Xia Kingdom.

The other half, Gao Jingfei thinks that it should be related to the reason why Liu An is widely praised by Xia and even countries around the world as the inventor of "tofu".

Don't underestimate the little tofu, as a big foodie empire, the people of Xia Guo know almost everyone about Liu An, the originator of tofu, after all, he is a character who has already gone to primary school textbooks.

There are also foreigners in foreign countries who are deeply fascinated by tofu, an oriental healthy food, and there are quite a few of them. It can be said that now this King of Huainan can become king in the netherworld after his death, and the credit of tofu is very great.

In contrast, those emperors of previous dynasties were able to set up a dragon court in the underworld after their deaths, and they were generally called kings and emperors in the yang world, but in fact, they also relied on the luck of their respective dynasties to survive in the underworld.

According to Liu An, dragon courts such as the Han dynasty and the Wei, Jin, Tang, Song and Ming dynasties that were strong for a while or had a long-term state can continue to this day after the fall of the dynasty, and like the small dragon courts of the Northern and Southern Dynasties and the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, most of which have disappeared or left some ruins at this time, and some of them can survive by relying on the powerful dragon courts or ghosts.

Only a small number of people like him and Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan, who had cultivation and outstanding talent in their lifetimes, could become ghosts and immortals, as well as heroes in the world like Xiang Yu, and become powerful ghost kings as soon as they fell into the underworld after death.

However, although the ghost immortals are ranked at the bottom of the fifth-rank immortals, they are not so easy to cultivate, and throughout the thousands of years in Middle-earth, there are few characters like the overlord.

It is rare to meet a senior immortal like Liu An, who can be called a Taoist patriarch, Gao Jingfei naturally wants to ask for advice.

Liu An has not been complacent in the past two thousand years, he has mastered the inheritance of ancient monks, warlocks and some qi refiners, and he collected hundreds of words before his death to organize and create the book "Huainanzi", and after achieving ghosts and immortals, he will collect some cultivation methods or classics from the human world every hundred years or so.

It can be said to be the culmination of the ancient immortal path and the ancient immortal path and modern cultivation. Many of the lost Dharma classics in the yang world can be found in the collection of Liu An, a thousand-year-old ghost immortal.

The first thing Gao Jingfei asked for advice was the secret blessing method of the Nine Festivals of the Heavenly Princess, which he exchanged from the witch Jinse.

This method is the secret method in the Taiping Sutra passed down by Zhang Jiao, the general of Tiangong, the great sage and the founder of the Taiping Dao. Originated from the ancient way of sacrifice! ”

Speaking of which, if it weren't for Gao Jingfei who had passed on the Heavenly Mandate Spell from the immortals in the forest, this ancient secret method of witchcraft, he might not even be able to understand the secret method of the Nine Heavenly Festivals, and he would basically be completely confused.

After all, he is not the descendant of the Taoist Fu Zheng faction, this method is mainly to pay attention to the method of swallowing talismans and divine blessings, it is difficult to study and understand without a certain Taoist foundation, and the Taiping Dao method has been dispersed since the Yellow Turban Rebellion was exterminated, and there are also previous dynasties to suppress the Taiping Dao, resulting in the remnants of the Taiping Dao defecting to the Taoist sects, without a complete inheritance, it is not easy for future generations to understand.

But Liu An is different, as a Taoist immortal who existed earlier than the three brothers of Zhang Jiao, if Liu An didn't die early, it is estimated that he would have achieved a corpse immortal at the very least, and even the Yang God is possible, he has existed for more than 2,000 years, he has an understanding of all aspects of Taoism, and he knows the heel of this secret method at a glance.

"This is another important spell of Zhang Jiao's preaching, which is to use the spell of water charm to heal the sick. It is very clear in the Taiping Sutra. ”

Saying that, a silk book appeared in Liu An's hand, and a golden light emanated in Gao Jingfei's vision. Obviously, this Huainan king has in his hands the complete Taiping Sutra that has been lost in later generations.

It is not surprising to think that Liu An was older than the founder of Taoism, the ancestor of the Heavenly Master, Zhang Daoling, and was able to collect the complete Taiping Sutra that was later lost due to the Yellow Turban Rebellion.

After all, not to mention that Liu An can enter the Yang World, even if it is difficult for Liu An to enter the world after becoming a ghost immortal, there will always be people in the Yellow Turban Army who will fall into the underworld after death.

"The word of repetition is what the master is, leading the right, and guiding the mind to think about it. …… The essence swallows it, and it is called a god. ”

“…… With Dan as the word, the above first, the next line will tell people, will make the bath end fine, the north west and the south east to tell it, so that it is strict with good wine, such as clear water has been drunk, with the words of thought, the end of the ancient thought of the body. ”

“…… Or see its words, and think about it with the place where the disease lives, and it is called also refining the form. ”

Liu An explained to Gao Jingfei word by word the content of a certain passage of the Taiping Sutra and the secret blessing method of the Nine Festivals of the Heavenly Gong, and the two certified each other, and Gao Jingfei's understanding of the secret blessing method of the Nine Festivals of the Heavenly Emperor reached more than 30% in just a few sentences.

Gao Jingfei asked again:

"What does that repetition mean?" What is the meaning of 'God's blessing'? ”
