Life on Fangcun Mountain is very boring, and the Bodhi Patriarch does not go to the altar every day**, or three or five days, or seven or eight days before calling a group of apprentices to teach the essence of the scriptures in the main hall. Therefore, when the patriarch gave a lecture, everyone listened to the lecture with a twelve-point spirit, and after the class, he discussed his understanding with the senior brothers.

Because the aquatic life was later, many times I couldn't understand the content of the Bodhi Patriarch's teachings, but fortunately, there was a senior brother who came to teach the lessons he had taught before every day in his spare time. As the introductory mental method of Fang Cun Mountain, there are three articles in the "Huangting Derivative Sutra", which runs through the triple realm of the foundation building period.

On this day, after the Bodhi Patriarch ascended the altar, the content was naturally profound, and all the brothers and sisters could not understand the mystery, and they all looked embarrassed. Everyone gathered in one place and talked freely about what they thought and obtained, but it was a way to listen and a thousand ways to solve it.

Naturally, aquatic life cannot participate, and it coincides with the fact that today I have to go up the mountain to chop wood. and all the senior brothers said "less accompaniment". So he went to the backyard and carried the axe to the back mountain. Since the first time he almost delayed the time for his senior brother to make a fire and make rice, Shui Sheng has not been late once.

Before coming to the rotten peach mountain, the peaches were gradually ripe, and some of them were already ripe. Even peaches with the same root and branch have a priority. An old man with missing teeth stood in the middle of the road and saw Shui Sheng coming over and said, "Are you Jue Sheng, a new disciple under that square inch sect?"

Shui Sheng was very surprised that the mountain was inaccessible, not to mention that there were no people within a radius of 100 miles, except for his own weekdays to go up the mountain to chop wood, how could there be an old man in this deep mountain old forest. Seeing that the old man was on a peachwood cane, with a snow-white beard, criss-crossing wrinkles, and a rickety body under his thin clothes, he could already see how many years the old man had lived. "Old man, I am. Shui Sheng said in a mood of respecting the elderly.

The old man said, "Are you from the east? ”

This made Shui Sheng even more surprised, this old man had never met before, but how did he know where he came from?

Shui Sheng nodded and said, "How did the old man know that I came from Huaguo Mountain?"

The old man laughed, "The first time you came, I smelled a monkey from you." ”

Shui Sheng listened to his words, and said in shock: "We don't seem to have met before, old man, right?"

The old man laughed and said, "It turned out to be an unenlightened chick, no wonder, no wonder." Old decay is the embodiment of this peach tree. ”

Shui Sheng hurriedly bowed and said, "It turned out to be Grandpa Peachtree." It's the juniors who are rude. It's just that I still need to go to the mountains to chop wood today, so I can't talk to you for a long time. If the firewood is delayed, the disciple may be punished again. ”

The old man of Peachtree laughed and said: "Don't worry, don't worry, there is still some time, you will accompany the old man and I will chat." ”

"But...... "Shui Sheng is in a hurry now, if he goes back late today, the third senior sister will definitely punish herself more."

The old man of the peach tree said: "Don't tight, don't tight, you see." The old man pointed to his hand, and a huge bear came slowly with a load of firewood on his back, and saw that the giant bear was very large, and there were still fragments of the hive on its sharp teeth. Strong and sharp limbs are fraught with danger.

"Are you satisfied now? Come, sit down, and talk to the old man. "The old man of the peach tree pulled the water under the peach tree. A magpie took a peach from the peach tree and sent it to the aquatic hand and flew away.

Shui Sheng hurriedly said: "Thank you, old man." ”

The old man of the peach tree said: "I am the old man of the peach tree, I have lived in this rotten peach mountain for I don't know how many years, and I have been a neighbor with the Bodhi Patriarch of the former mountain for nearly 6,000 years. It's really a flick of a finger, and before you know it, 6,000 years have passed. A thousand years ago, the patriarch accepted the monkey as an apprentice, and after about ten years of work on the mountain, he often came to the back mountain to collect some firewood. I got acquainted with each other, but I always had to fill him up when the peaches were ripe. ”

Shui Sheng said: "You said that it was the Monkey King who made trouble in the Heavenly Palace back then?"

"This monkey is also considered to be gifted and intelligent, and it is not an exaggeration to be the most outstanding of the apprentices collected by the ancestor, and it is really good to think that it will take him less than a thousand years to become such a well-known title of Monkey King. The old man of the peach tree said.

Shui Sheng said: "He is famous, and he is a great hero I admire." ”

The old man of the peach tree said with a smile: "This monkey also has admirers, and the big waves wash the sand, leaving behind some amazing people." ”

Shui Sheng said: "Old man Peach Tree, why are you on Peach Mountain again?"

The old man of Peachtree said: "I don't know, I've been here since I was born. ”

"Didn't you go out for a walk?"

The old man of the peach tree said: "I went out to walk, the hearts of the people outside are too dangerous, and I don't remember how many years ago, when I traveled to the West, I met a man surnamed Zhang, and saw that there were hundreds of peach trees in his courtyard, and on a whim I taught him the method of planting peach trees. The day after tomorrow, I heard that he became an emperor in heaven. It's true, isn't it just for a few peaches? As for that, he also gave his peaches a well-known name, and also made a peach called Yaochi Pan Tao, they are not too cold, and they can have a meeting if they eat a peach, which is ridiculous, ridiculous. ”

Shui Sheng asked weakly, "Is the person surnamed Zhang you met named Zhang Haotian?"

The old man Peachtree thought for a moment and nodded.

Shui Sheng said excitedly: "Does he have a wife called the Queen Mother of the West?"

The old man of Peachtree nodded and said, "Yes, but that tigress is perverse by nature, and Zhang Haotian is naturally afraid of guilt." I have not lived in peace in his house. After about ten days, he left. ”

Shui Sheng said excitedly: "It turns out that the Jade Emperor's peach orchard was planted by you, you must know that this peach can become an immortal if you eat one." ”

The old man of the peach tree said disdainfully: "It is because of this peach tree that the ten thousand immortals will surrender to his feet." They are drinking to quench their thirst, but in the end they will still reap the consequences. ”

Shui Sheng knelt on the ground and said, "Old man Peachtree, please save me." Boy, I am seriously ill and will die soon. I hope you will come to the rescue. ”

Shui Sheng knew that the old man of the peach tree in front of him was unfathomable, and he must be a hidden master to be able to give birth to treasures such as the peach that everyone in the Three Realms coveted. I think he must have a way to exorcise the Netherfire Ghost in his soul.

The old man of the peach tree helped up the aquatic life and said: "You have the teaching of famous teachers such as Bodhi Patriarch, so I will not draw snakes to add to it." Since you came to the mountain, do you feel that the murderous aura in your body is gradually weakening?"

Shui Sheng nodded and said, "But it's easier to control your body than before, and you won't suddenly become crazy." ”

The old man of the peach tree said: "You eat this peach first, you are saying, although this fruit is a peach, it can also relieve the heat." It seems that the midsummer season is just around the corner. I don't think it's too early, you should go down the mountain early. ”

Shui Sheng stood up and arched his hand, "Thank you for the hospitality of the old man Peach Tree today." The kid retired first. After speaking, he took the bundle of firewood and went to the three-star cave. The old man of the peach tree slowly walked back into the peach tree.

It seems that the time has been calculated, and the water life returns to the cave just in time for the fire to make food. Put down the firewood and drink a sip of cold water, and hurriedly went to the senior brother's room to listen to him explain the "Huang Ting Derivative Sutra".

Halfway through the journey, I happened to meet the senior brother Juewu in the courtyard of the courtyard and discussed the Tao with all the senior brothers. When they saw me coming, they dismissed everyone except Shui Sheng.

"Today, I will take the school test for you, and recite the Exterior Sutra in the "Huang Ting Derivative Sutra". "Enlightenment.

The aquatic body stood upright, brewed his mood, and smoothed his thoughts and brought the exterior scriptures one by one without hurrying.

"Lao Jun lives idly for seven words, explaining the body shape and the gods, there is a Huang Ting Guan Yuan, and then there is a secluded front door, breathing into the dantian, the jade pond clear water irrigates the spiritual root, the trial can be repaired for a long time, and the people in the Huang Ting are dressed in Zhu Yi,...... Take the sesame grass purple flower, wear a white vegetarian dantian, bathe in the Huachi spiritual root, the three mansions can open the door of life, the five flavors are all good, the cloth can last forever, the avenue is swinging, don't be annoyed, don't spread my words. "The entire "Huang Ting Derivative Sutra" was recited in one go, as smooth as flowing water.

Jue Sheng nodded frequently while listening, knowing that Shui Sheng had memorized all of them completely, so he said: "Yes, you will recite the entire exterior scripture in the "Huang Ting Derivative Sutra" in three days. Very good. ”

"Senior brother praises. "Aquatic is humble and authentic.

The sky became a little dark, but it did not affect the preaching of the two men. The two of them spoke and listened, and they explained the content of the scriptures as much as they could.

"People have a dantian, divided into three, the upper dantian between the eyebrows into three inches, also known as the mud pill palace; the middle dantian this heart also, also called the Jiang Palace; the lower dantian is three inches below the umbilicus, it is said that the sea of qi, Jing @ door, Guan Yuan, life gate and so on are not enough and one, the world is mistaken to the dantian to stop under the umbilicus, cover this place is the foundation of human life, the gateway of yin and yang, the origin of the five qi. ”

Shui Sheng asked, "What is the beauty of the three dantians of Senior Brother?"

Enlightenment: "The three dantians have mysteries, the intention is to keep the upper dantian, and the nine truths of the mud pill can prolong life; the intention is to keep the middle dantian, and the thoughts are not reluctant, and they will live forever; the intention is to keep the dantian, and the god of yin and yang is kept, then the qi of yin and yang will not be dispersed, and life is inexhaustible; and if you cultivate one of the three places, you can prolong life and avoid death." Now that you have entered my sect and been selected for a dantian cultivation, how can I teach you in the future?"

Shui Sheng said: "Senior brother, like you, only one of these three dantians can be immortal?"

Enlightenment nodded and said: "Having said that, is the realm different in the future? Throughout the ages, cultivators who have cultivated the lower dantian are like carp crossing the river, and the highest achievement is no more than the position of ghosts and immortals; those who choose the dantian have only one out of a thousand people who cultivate, and the highest achievement is the position of human immortals; those who choose the dantian have one in ten thousand, and they have achieved the position of immortals; if they choose the middle and lower two places to cultivate, they are only immortals, although the upper and lower are the positions of immortals, but they are not subject to the jurisdiction of the heavenly book seal god list, and the upper middle can achieve land immortals in the world. The most terrifying thing is that the upper, middle and lower three places are cultivation, but they are also the most difficult, if it weren't for the fact that there are few successful people who have been taught by the Heavenly Dao Saint Mixed Yuan Sect Master, the most famous is the twelve heavenly immortals under the sect of the Sect. ”

Shui Sheng pondered for a moment and said, "The disciple has not had much time to get started, dare to ask Senior Brother, if I am just trying to exorcise that Netherfire Ghost, how should I choose?"

Enlightenment said: "If this is the case, you should cultivate in the three places, if you don't have the mind to go in, you just need to cultivate to get started." Although the three cultivations are difficult and dangerous, they are the most effective way to drive away the Netherfire Ghost in your soul. The upper dantian concentrates, the middle dantian gathers qi, and the lower dantian refines the body. Don't hide it from the junior brother, our entry tools are the three places of cultivation, although this road is rugged and difficult, if you achieve the position of heavenly immortals in the future, it will be bitter and sweet. ”

Shui Sheng said: "Juesheng has been taught. ”

Seeing that it was not early, and it was already the end of the day, the two chatted for a while before going to the dining hall to eat. After eating dinner, I saw that the remnant sun had fallen into the western mountain, and a waning moon hung in the air. The aquatic life watched the waning moon in the courtyard when he had nothing to do, and suddenly a firefly flew into the courtyard from outside and landed on a bonsai, and its tail flashed and shone.
