Volume 1 Earth Chapter 205 The Temple of Grievances (3)
"I arrived at the gate of the temple of grievances, and found that the temple of grievances, whether it is a temple of grace or a temple of grievances, is not simple, revealing a kind of 'evil spirit' atmosphere. I vaguely feel that the two temples are actually the same thing, or a whole, far from being as opposed and separated as they seem on the outside...... It seems to be grabbed by a large invisible hand. ”
"I underestimated the danger of the Temple of Grievances. What we have to do is to improve our cultivation as much as possible in case something happens. The time circle I am arranging now is about 1:100 time, and it is also the largest proportion of time circles I can arrange. 100 days of cultivation here, only 1 day has passed in the outside world. Now that you are cultivating here with peace of mind, I will refine some elixirs to help you cultivate and ascend to the next level......"
There are many types of "Cross-border Pill", "Ascension Pill", and "Over-the-Earth Pill", because each cultivation level has a corresponding Ascending Pill.
Master Gong once gave Kan Ling a "cross-border pill", strictly speaking, it could only be regarded as a "cross-level pill", because that kind of pill could only make the cultivation of Xuan-level cultivators rise to a small level.
If you are a cultivator in the early stage of the Xuan Rank, if you take that kind of pill, your cultivation can only be promoted to the middle stage of the Xuan Level at most.
Ning Ke yesterday, with the help of Hei Niang, he inadvertently refined the second-grade elixir "Kong Shengzhen Zhongdan", which means that he is already a second-grade pill pharmacist.
Fortunately, his storage ring was full of Chinese medicinal materials, and after "dozens of days" of learning and refining in the time formation, he really became a real second-grade pill pharmacist!
He refined enough pills for Mu An'er to ascend from the Xuan level to all levels of the earth level, and he also refined the "Ascension Pill" for Hei Niang to advance from the ground level to the innate level.
Of course, these pills are not taken casually, and they are generally taken when the cultivation reaches a critical point.
The reason why Hei Niang can be promoted from the yellow level stage to the Xuan level, and then leap to the ground level, is because the black lady's divine soul has already reached the level of ground-level cultivation.
Most people's cultivation is carried out simultaneously with the soul and body.
But cultivation can also start with only cultivating the divine soul, and then cultivate the body. Some monks who have attained enlightenment only cultivate their souls and minds on weekdays, and do not cultivate their bodies at all. One day, when you suddenly cultivate your body, you can travel thousands of miles in a day, and your ordinary body can suddenly leap into the cultivation of the Xuan level, the earth level, or even higher.
There are also people who start by cultivating their bodies and constantly use external conditions to temper their bodies. When the cultivation of the body reaches the strength of the Xuan level or the earth level, and then the cultivation of the divine soul is at this time, the progress of cultivation is also very fast.
Ning Ke took the "body" character pill, and his body reached the strength of the prefecture level, and then took the "qi" character and the "wisdom" character pill, and his cultivation suddenly reached the level equivalent to the prefecture level. Being able to reach this speed was due to the fact that Ning Ke's own divine soul was already strong, as well as the reason why the three pills he took were of high grade.
It was very difficult for Ning Ke to ascend now, and it was difficult for the surrounding aura to reach the concentration he needed, and the aura that absorbed the spirit stone had temporarily reached a saturated state, and it could no longer be absorbed at once.
The promotion pill that will promote his cultivation must be at least three grades or more, and he can't refine it now.
Getting the two girls to cultivate and upgrade was the only thing he could do.
Of course, he didn't forget to give Mu An'er a couple. He and Hei Niang can contact through the soul locking ring, so they can also contact Mu An'er directly.
After refining the elixir, he handed it over to the two girls.
Put all the guns and other items brought by Mu An'er into his storage ring. The girl was very interesting, and when she came, she brought him a camouflage outfit.
Then, Ning Ke began to study the Ning family's eight-pole knife technique passed on to him by his father.
The eight-pole knife method is a long-handled horse knife technique similar to Guan Yu's Qinglong Yanyue knife, which has been passed down to modern times, and it is rare to fight on horseback. There are wise ancestors who discarded the handle of the knife, leaving only the head of the knife, and adapted it into a close-quarters knife method.
At that time, when Ning Ke practiced the eight-pole knife technique, he couldn't find the eight-pole knife, so he could only use a guillotine knife instead of the eight-pole knife to practice.
There are a total of nine ways to use the eight-pole knife. Ning Ke only learned three ways and gave up, after all, the guillotine knife is very different from the eight-pole knife, and Ning Ke at that time didn't even enter the yellow level, and he couldn't dance the guillotine, so he didn't learn the six-way knife technique in the back.
It's a pity to think about it now, it's been almost two years since my father died, and I'm afraid the remaining six-way sword technique will be difficult to learn.
Ning Ke took out the knife made of anti-gravity meteorite iron, like a cleaver. In the time circle, try to dance.
The Baji Knife Method is similar to Baji Boxing, focusing on close attack and defense, although it is a one-handed knife, the other hand often has to hold the back of the knife to help. When practiced to be proficient, the blade of the knife is one with the human body, so that the human body seems to be wrapped in countless sharp blades, and the sword shadow dances with the human body.
Ning Ke is wielding a "meat cleaver", which is very different from the real eight-pole knife, neither can the knife dance close to the body, nor can it dance independently, which is nondescript and ridiculous. He looked like a mad butcher, chopping and chopping, and the flowers and branches of Mu An'er that made Mu An'er laugh tremble, and the black lady only looked at her with a pair of cold eyes......
In fact, Ning Ke seemed to be chaotic, only the knife technique of the Eight Pole Knife was thirty percent, but in fact, he was pondering how to add the "Bao Yao Mountain" old ginseng essence to the knife technique and teach the mechanism of the natural concealment array.
After nearly three months of hard work, Mu An'er's cultivation has advanced to the middle of the Xuan level, and Hei Niang's cultivation has also been promoted from the early stage of the prefecture level to the middle of the prefecture level. And Ning Ke also upgraded his equipment and weapons......
......
As the debate became more and more intense, two monks jumped into the center of the defense room, and from the direction of the opening of the two monks' robes, Ning Ke judged that one was from the Temple of Grace and the other was from the Temple of Grievance.
This is the final game of today's group stage, the first two games have been won and lost, and this one will decide the winner or loss of the day.
Q: Do you think people have a "soul"?
A: No, because I haven't seen it.
Q: You haven't seen it, not necessarily others haven't seen it, doesn't it mean that you haven't seen it?
A: Yes.
Question: If you say that, the things that a person can see are very limited, and many of us have not seen Mount Tai and the Yellow River, doesn't it exist?
A: No, they exist, they can be seen and touched.
Q: So you're saying that the visible outer substance exists, while the invisible inner spirit doesn't exist, right?
A: Yes.
Q: From your point of view, do you have thoughts, feelings, and consciousness?
A: I'm not sure, but there is. For I am a human being, and without them he lives, and without them he is not a man, but only a flesh.
Question: Well, your point of view is that "I don't see" doesn't exist, so where are your thoughts, feelings, and consciousness? Can you see and touch it? How can your reason be valid?!
......
Ning Ke found that when the monk replied, his body movements were very exaggerated and contrived. The person who asked the question would give him a high-five, shake a rosary, and then look up to the sky, lean his waist, and pat the other person's chest......
He asked Liu Xizi, "What are they going to do?"
Liu Xizi explained:
"When a monk is debating the scriptures, his actions seem to be quite exaggerated, and every action in the debate has a specific meaning. For example, before each question, you should say the word 'cries', then raise your right hand back high and make a crisp sound when you clapped it with your left hand, and then extend your right hand down behind the other person and pull it up.
"That 'cry' is equivalent to opening wisdom, because in Chinese Buddhism Shu Bodhisattva is a symbol of wisdom, and his mantra is 'Hum Areba Zara Cry', and the 'Cry' sound can enlighten Manjushri in our hearts and open our wisdom. The high right hand indicates that Manjushri is behind him.
"Second-hand strikes have three layers of righteousness: one is that a slap does not make a sound, everything in the world is the product of the harmony of all fate, the second is that applause represents impermanence, everything is fleeting, and the third is a crisp sound, awakening the compassion and wisdom in your heart and driving away your evil thoughts. The right hand is pulled down and then back, hoping to save sentient beings in suffering through the good thoughts and wisdom in their hearts......"
The replies of these two monks sometimes aroused the applause of the onlookers, and sometimes suffered from the laughter of the whole house.
Ning Ke felt that if primary school students played this kind of debate, it might help the development of intelligence and thinking, but these adult monks were keen on this kind of debate, which was not only boring, but also a little boring.
But Mu An'er watched it with relish. She thought it was very interesting for the monk's aggressive voice and almost Peking Opera's "hand-making" argumentative gestures, and she still learned it offstage.
The black lady didn't smile, she was still on her mind.
After a while, the monk who was asked was defeated. He handed the monk's hat on his head to the questioner. The questioner took the hat, threw it on the ground, stepped on it three times with his foot, and spat at it, and his actions were full of insulting energy, but it attracted a lot of applause from the monks who were watching below.
The monk who lost the debate, full of shame, hurriedly left the venue, letting his bald head be blown by the cold wind.
Liu Xizi explained: "The monk who lost has been eliminated from the competition and will not be allowed to wear a monk's hat for three years. The status in the temple will also be demoted, and the lowly job in the temple will be performed......"
"Uncle, will he sweep the floor and wipe the table?"
"Miss Mu, your heart is too charitable. It's good to be able to clean the toilet and dig out the manure......"
"If you lose a debate, you will force people to a dead end!"
"Exactly. This is only the group stage, if it is the final later, the losers will basically end themselves!"
"What about the monk who won?"
"Depending on the level of winning, you can get the title of 'Mahayana Heaven' and 'Liberation Heaven'......"
......
Ning Ke didn't care about the conversation between Liu Xizi and Mu An'er.
Early this morning, he asked Mu An'er and Hei Niang to carry a piece of white and flawless high-grade Xiuyan jade that was wider than two large wardrobes, and rushed to the Grievance Temple.
This piece of jade was also too big, and Ning Ke arranged a transfer array at that time before moving the jade into the storage ring.
With the improvement of Ning Ke's cultivation, his storage ring was also expanded by him.
The two girls found a thick steel pipe, trapped it with a wire rope, and used enough strength to lift the piece of jade. Ning Ke didn't dare to slack off, he held the jade under his hand, and the three of them worked together to reluctantly carry the jade up the mountain.
There was already a little monk who reported to the temple......
