There are awakened people in the hall, who move their steps and quietly come over; There are also Taoists who look at the coming and eavesdrop with their ears.

Xiang Qiuzhen looked at the six roads, and when he saw this situation, he immediately waved his robe: "Since you want to listen, then you will come over." ”

In the crunching sound, a Taoist surrounded the real person in the middle in the blink of an eye.

Xiang Qiuzhen glanced at it, nodded at Wang Zhenliang and said, "Zhenliang, you have already heard of this kind of secret, and go to guard the door." Don't let outsiders listen. ”

Senior Brother Wang answered and obediently went out to look at the wind.

Xiang Qiuzhen took off his hat, showed his bald head, and said, "Do you know what a cultivator is? ”

For a while, there were different opinions, and there were those who said 'one heart to the Tao', some said 'into the fixed view', and some said 'escaping from the world and seeking immortals'.

Xiang Qiu Zhen waited for everyone to stop, and then said: "That's right, but the poor Dao thinks that cultivators are selfish people. ”

There is a saying: "Why did a real person say this? ”

"Why?" "There is a great terror between life and death, and we who practice the Tao do not cultivate the past, do not seek the next life, only cultivate this life, and practice in escaping from the world, just to attain the Tao and ascend...... To put it bluntly, isn't it just afraid of death? ”

As soon as the words were spoken, there was a sudden silence in the hall.

Xue Zhenjun secretly thought, such a big truth as the real person in charge of the house is absolutely heart-wrenching. If you are not afraid of death, who is willing to give up the rolling red dust and go to the mountains to cultivate?

"Nothing to say?" Xiang Qiuzhen laughed a few times, and then said: "We cultivators don't have to do anything, but still want worldly support, if we don't have some means, how can we make good believers and laypeople willing to support? ”

"The five techniques of Taoism, mountain, medicine, life, physiognomy, and divination, the latter four are for praying for food. The way of heaven is impermanent, and in the Tang Dynasty, Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng were sent to understand the heavenly machine, but they only dared to retain it with proverbs, why not?

If one leaks the secret of heaven, it will eat its body; Moreover, these heavenly opportunities are not static, where is the number done?

In addition, my Daomen has fasting and Jiao rituals and all kinds of rituals, with a heart of peace and faith. Otherwise, they all learn from the hidden immortals and practice in the deep mountains, and our Dao sect inheritance has long been cut off. ”

Xue Zhenjun's eyes widened, and he secretly said in his heart, the real person in charge really dares to say it. Good guys, it's just that the royal family is the number one injustice, and all the people in the world who dare to love are all injustices in the eyes of the Daomen.

Seeing that the Taoists around him were ashamed, the real person in charge said: "Don't be ashamed, compared to the bald donkey of the Buddha Gate, we and other Taoists will also catch demons and drive away ghosts, pray for disasters, the bald donkey has a red mouth and white teeth, and says that you can enter the Buddha country by reciting 'Amitabha Buddha', deceive the people, and hate!" ”

The shame on the faces of the Taoists gradually disappeared, and they nodded in agreement.

Huh? In this way, the Daomen are indeed a little stronger than the Buddhist Sect...... It's all up to your peers. Looking at the indignation of the Taoists, Xue Zhenjun secretly thought: Lao Guo is right, only between peers is naked hatred!

Seeing that the ancestor was talking happily, Xue Zhenjun couldn't help but ask: "Master, is it useless to say this?" ”

Xiang Qiuzhen smiled: "It's useful, soothing the heart of the faithful, how can it be said that it's useless?" ”

"Other than that, there's no side effect?"

The ancestor said: "If there is a true cultivation and casting spells, you can pray for disasters and blessings, and you can avoid all evils. ”

Therefore, this Zhai Jiao ritual is really just as the master said, it is completely for the worldly believers.

"Master, that heavenly court and earthly mansion, can it really exist?"

"Heaven and Earth?" Xiang Qiuzhen smiled and said, "Where did the heaven and earth come from?" ”

"That's not right, if there is no heaven and earth, how can my true martial arts spell serve ghosts and exorcise gods?"

Xiang Qiuzhen stared at Xue Zhenjun with deep meaning and said: "Most of the ghosts and gods served by my Daomen were ignited by the ancestors of the Daomen in the past dynasties and sealed the spirits of the mountains and wilderness. Such acquired gods are naturally bound by talismans, otherwise, the four values of Gongcao, the five directions of the truth, the six Ding and the six Jia, how can they be enslaved by the talisman? ”

Xue Zhenjun couldn't speak. He originally thought that since he could practice and attain the Tao here, he thought that there should be an earthly mansion and a heavenly court. I don't want to, not only the hell and the heavenly court, but the ghosts and gods who are enslaved by the talismans, are all lit and sealed by the predecessors of the Daomen in the past dynasties, so they are bound by the talismans.

If you think about it, this is the right thing. If there really is an underworld and a heavenly court, the immortals can enjoy incense in the earthly world, where can they use the Daomen to pass through it? Since you don't use the Dao Gate, where will you descend your doppelganger to be driven?

This matter was clarified to Xiang Qiuzhen, and Xue Zhenjun had another question in his heart, saying: "Master...... Since my Dao Sect has the true Dharma, why should I be subject to others? It's a heavenly noble, but in our eyes it's just a mundane, why not replace it? In this way, there are no more constraints. ”

Xiang Qiuzhen glanced at him and said, "Have you ever been a great sage teacher, Zhang Lu and others?" The cultivator's heart is to attain the Tao and live forever, so he is distracted by his general affairs and does not say anything about his practice. How can this world be so easy to heal? ”

That's right, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Zhang Jiao, the great virtuous teacher, and Zhang Lu, the successor of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, one rebelled to overthrow the Han family, the other simply ruled Hanzhong with teaching, one of the two was destroyed, and the other simply voted for Cao Cao.

These two people are counted as the predecessors of the Daomen, and this attempt was fruitless, and the cultivators of later generations naturally learned a lesson and no longer tried it lightly.

"It's thankless, so why bother? What's more, tracing back to the source one by one, except for the true lineage, most of the other sects of the Dao Sect originated from the Heavenly Master's Mansion, but look at today, which faction is willing to obey the orders of the Heavenly Master's Mansion? ”

Yes, I almost forgot that the Daomen has never been cohesive, and has always been extremely loose. is in the same vein of the master's mansion one day, boasting of his ancestors, and has always wanted to command the Quartet. Don't talk about the Quartet, the three mountain talismans are extremely loose, where will they listen to Zhengyi's order?

There were practitioners long before the Daomen, and the Taoist ancestor Zhang Daoling created the Daomen inheritance according to Lao Tzu's five thousand words, and the practitioners such as the warlocks behind him joined the Daomen one after another. In this way, the cultivation method is not unique to the Heavenly Master's Mansion, so how can the various families and factions obey the orders of the Heavenly Master's Mansion?

And this section deals with the Taoist lineage. Taoist practice, there are practitioners who have obtained the true law, and they have traveled down the mountain with quiet thoughts, and they have to meet the beautiful places of mountains and rivers, and they have set up Taoist temples and characters. And due to the different views of individuals on the practice, most of the practice methods have been handed down with slight changes. Just like Wudang Mountain Qingwei Yuxu Palace and Qingwei Taihua Palace, both of them are in the same vein of Qingwei, but the inheritance is different, and the characters are completely different.

There is a way that heresy is more hateful than heresy, and when it comes to relationships, the true martial arts are more intimate with the two than between the two.

With such a bulk Dao Gate, the Heavenly Master's Mansion can't be unified, and where can anyone unify it?

Xue Zhenjun was thoughtful, and felt that the ancestor was too shocking to say bluntly, and if people overheard it, he was afraid that it would cause trouble. So he muttered and changed the subject: "If you want to say that, the disciple will understand." Forehead...... Anyway, my Daomen can still catch demons and exorcise ghosts, and it can't be regarded as swaggering. ”

Xiang Qiuzhen was very pleased: "Zhenjun thinks like this, compared to the bald donkey in the temple, my Daomen is more or less faced." ”

"Master, no, Buddhism also has some means, right?"

Xiang Qiuzhen sneered and said, "Cultivating nature without cultivating life is the first disease of cultivation. Poor Dao used to be a novice in his early years, and he was the most clear in his practice in the Buddhist Gate, but it was an evil and crooked way, and it was not advisable to make a decision. ”

Xue Zhenjun blinked, his eyes glanced at the top of Shizu's bare head without self-examination, and said secretly, Shizu's hair, wouldn't it be that he was made when he was a novice?

"Dut, Hugh is cranky! The poor Dao's hair is a mistake in cultivation, and it has nothing to do with being a monk when he was young. ”

Xue Zhenjun shrank his neck and hurriedly lowered his head. This master has a temperament back to the basics, like a naughty boy, partial and transparent, very good at perceiving people's hearts, and must not think crankily in front of him in the future, otherwise he will definitely be wearing small shoes.

After scolding, he was not less interested in seeking the truth, and he talked about a lot of spiritual secrets.

Since the decline of the Fetal Breath Method and the Thunder Method, the Inner Dan Technique has risen, and the Daomen monks have especially attached great importance to their lives. Partial Buddhism does the opposite, only cultivating life and not cultivating nature.

Daomen first cultivates nature, and then cultivates life; Buddhist practice relies only on meditation and epiphany. If you can't have an epiphany, you will sit and participate in meditation for a lifetime, and you will not be able to make any progress; If you have an epiphany, you can prove the bodhisattva and the Buddha's fruition, and you have supernatural powers.

However, Buddhism only cultivates life and does not cultivate sex, and the mortal body of the body only exists for a hundred years, and it ends up as dry bones in the grave.

A Taoist asked, "True person, what Buddhism cultivates, can you go to the Western Elysium after death?" ”

Xiang Qiuzhen sniffled and said, "This Western Bliss...... I'm afraid there is. ”

Is there really a Pure Land of Bliss?

Without waiting for Xue Zhenjun to speak, Xiang Qiuzhen sneered: "However, the incense is willing to be sealed by force, if you want to die after the Yin God is not at ease, for people to drive, do not ask for the Buddha, the poor road can be sealed." ”

At this moment, Xue Zhenjun couldn't help it: "Incense wishing power? Buddhism will also seal the art? ”

"Oh, when I was poor, I traveled all over the world, climbed the snow-capped mountains and entered Nausz, and the Buddhist gate in its place was very different from that of Middle Earth. Why? During the Han Dynasty, Buddhism flowed into the Central Plains, and when the Tang Dynasty was in its prime, the Central Plains Buddhism was completely different from Wusizang. The Guyin Warlock was not only integrated into the Daomen, but also gradually into the Buddhist Sect.

This method of sealing the acquired ghosts and gods is not unique to the Taoist ancestors, and what is so strange about Buddhism after learning it? ”

Xue Zhenjun's mind was in a mess at this time, daring to love the Buddha is the Tao, and the two are traced back to the source, all of which come from the Qin and Han magicians. It's just that the evolution of the past dynasties and the gradual remoteness of the practice method make the Buddhism and the Tao different.
