Chapter 21: The Turtle and the Snake Knot
So in the next time, Situ Yi used the method of dormancy of the spirit turtle to hibernate in the big copper cylinder. He is like a frog in hibernation, a python, or an old turtle in the mountains, and he has no breath on the outside, as if he is dead, but in fact he has performed the method of internal breathing. This is the Taoist Turtle Breath Gong, with the help of certain unique breathing rates, the pores of the whole body are released, reducing their own oxygen consumption and demand to a minimum.
At the same time, he blocked all the acupuncture points of his body, and the whole person was like a pixiu that could only enter and exit, and the pores of his whole body continuously absorbed the hot qi and blood medicinal power from the outside, and continuously gathered in his chest. This is like a volcanic eruption, constantly absorbing the kinetic energy and fire poison of underground magma until the last moment of bursting.
Situ Yi is like this now, accumulating the power of the flesh and blood, and transforming it into the nourishment of the soul in a certain mysterious way, until the last moment, the soul grows to the final level, and has the power to break through the obstacles of the body, and jumps out of the gate of heaven above his head, manifesting the power of his mind, and only then can he use the method of the "Turtle and Elephant Sutra" to break through and stand up, and enter the Tao from martial arts.
And in these 10 days, he has to go through many illusions and all kinds of tribulations. This kind of tribulation is not physical, but comes from the level of consciousness, which is the external obstacle that the two masters of Buddhism and Taoism will encounter when they achieve great achievements, or the outer path of the demonic barrier, all kinds of extraterritorial heavenly demons come and constantly disturb, wanting to fall you into the hell of the nose, and you will not be able to achieve the right result, and the body will die.
As Zhang Boduan's 'Zhang Ziyang' in the Northern Song Dynasty said in "Enlightenment Chapter", swallowing a pill of elixir in my stomach, I knew that my life was out of my mind.
The heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skins, empty their bodies, and act chaotically, so they are tempted to endure and gain what they cannot. If you want to enter the Taoist industry, the art of telekinesis is originally the realm that many masters of the Xuanmen Qimen diligently pursue, this is like a carp jumping over the dragon gate, only in this last leap of power, those who learn from me live, like me die, everyone experiences different obstacles in the outer way, and there is no possibility of avoiding.
Because the demonic barrier is the process of refining the dregs in the yin soul with the fire of pure yang, after all of them are refined, they are pure and free, and the spirit can be like an initiation, the light is flourishing, and the mind is generated. The moon hides the jade rabbit and the day hides the black, and there are turtles and snakes coiled together. The phase is coiled, and the life is strong, but it can plant golden lotus in the fire. The five elements of the cluster are used upside down, and the work is completed with the Buddha and the immortal. That Situ Yi was in the state of planting golden lotus in the fire.
So from the first day, his consciousness gradually blurred and fell into a state of confusion, but the whole person curled up in the big copper tank, his body was like a turtle and snake coiled, still instinctively running the exercises of the "Turtle Elephant Sutra", and constantly absorbing the power of qi, blood, medicine and stone from the outside world. The qi and blood in the body continue to condense, boiling and burning like lava, planting a golden lotus in the fire, only waiting for the golden lotus to bloom, in order to stimulate the soul potential, rush out. This state, mysterious and mysterious, wonderful and wonderful, is the gate of the mystery, and the god of grains is immortal.
From the first day he entered the copper vat, Situ Yi's whole person fell into silence, and in his misty state, he saw evil spirits and attacked him frantically. In the consciousness of the self, a round and round bright moon hangs in the heart, releasing a bright and pure light, like a bodhisattva with a glass body, within the magnetic field around the body, everything can not invade.
Then the surrounding demonic obstacles changed again, becoming the kingdom of asuras, the sea of blood around him was surging, the shouts of killing were endless, the blood stains spread, polluting the bodhisattva's Taoist body, so the moonlight was no longer bright, it became mottled, and he entered the state of the small five decays, the music was not heard, the body light was flickering, the bathing water was in the body, the situation was reluctant, and the eyes were instantaneous.
The bright moon was still shining in the sky, and Situ Yi was not moved by external objects, so the five decays of heaven and man attacked, the clothes were dirty, the head was wilted, the armpits were sweating, the body was filthy, and the body was unhappy, and the body gradually aged and decayed, and entered a state of stiff death. Situ Yi watched coldly, not angry, not sad, not happy or displeased, Bodhi has no tree, and the mirror is not a platform. There is nothing in the first place, where is the dust!
Then the surrounding environment changed again, there were pearlescent jade, beauties and bewitchments, and all kinds of illusions manifested one by one, but Situ Yi stuck to his heart and was unmoved.
At the same time, outside the courtyard of the bucket room, time passed day by day, one day, two days, three days......
Under Lao Zhao's request, all the guards did not dare to get close to the courtyard for half a step, and as time passed, the strong blood in the fighting room became more and more intense, even if they were close to a radius of 3 feet, they felt the rolling heat wave coming, their breathing was a little short, and the whole person seemed to be about to burn.
Lao Zhao's mind was impetuous, he only felt that his breathing was a little short, and he was shocked and shocked in his heart. I don't know what my young master is doing? The vision in the house was gradually perceived by outsiders, but Lao Zhao strictly ordered the entire Situ family to keep secrets, and no one dared to leak it out, and the slaves and maids in the courtyard were driven to other places. But even so, there are still occasional rumors, and even the ancestors of the family have sent people to inquire many times, but they have been blocked back by themselves.
Lao Zhao is very responsible in his heart, he knows that many things cannot be said to outsiders, and he cannot affect the young master's plans, even if it is his own aunt and juniors, he is not allowed to say more!
But looking at the changes in the scene every day, Lao Zhao was also very anxious, he knew that many things couldn't help but ask himself, but looking at the changes outside this bucket, Lao Zhao didn't know whether it was good or bad?
On the fifth day, Lao Zhao couldn't help but look at the fighting room in the courtyard, and sighed in his heart: "Young master, although Lao Zhao and I don't have the blessing to cultivate, and I can't succeed in martial arts, but I still know this kind of thing when people's minds change, if you don't come out again, the people in the family will talk about it." ”
By the tenth day, the strong qi and blood had filled the entire courtyard, and even rats, flies, mosquitoes, and the like had already fled from the courtyard, and those who did not run out had become dried corpses.
The guards at home have been strictly guarded for the past 10 days, and at the request of Lao Zhao, no one dares to leave this place, eating, drinking, living and traveling are all here, on the one hand, Lao Zhao is to restrain his subordinates and prevent the news from leaking, on the other hand, it is also to protect the safety of the room.
The sun is gradually setting in the western mountains, and the weather is getting cooler, but in the courtyard of the bucket, there is still a heat wave rolling, full of blood and energy. The surrounding guards did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and guarded outside one by one, but the rolling heat wave hit, and the hot sweat they stayed there was constantly flowing from their foreheads and bodies, and the clothes behind them were soaked.
Everyone's hearts are also up and down, the young master is in retreat for 10 days this time, without eating or drinking, is it a human body that can withstand it? Everyone's hearts couldn't help but mutter.
