Three days later, late at night.

Yuan Qing Wei laid down the altar, in front of the altar enshrined two basin-sized things, one filled with water, the other burning with a raging fire.

Liu Ming stood next to the altar, and he explained the mysteries to Guan Cheng on the side from time to time.

"Ah Cheng! The altar that the head of the sect is now arranging belongs to a kind of water pool and fire swamp, and although the methods of refining the souls of the dead in the world's Dao veins are different, they are not from the two things of water and fire. Of course, this water and fire are also unusual things, generally speaking, the practitioner uses his body to pure yang and ignites the ghost of pure yin. That is, 'use my yang to refine the yin of the other' to achieve the reverse of yin and yang, and the subtlety of the hidden passage of the netherworld, so that the stagnation of the dead soul can be exceeded. If the cultivator cultivates to a high level, he can even make the spirit of the ghost and the soul of the dead gather and be born, so as to ascend to the immortal class. ”

After Liu Ming briefly explained the subtleties of the altar, he said bluntly: "It's just that this method hurts itself very much, and it won't be used easily, so there are some ways to retreat, such as using the essence of the sun and the moon to replace one's own refinement from water and fire." ”

"Don't think that the two pots in front of your master are simple, the flame in the brazier is formed by your master at noon on the third day, drawing down the essence of the sun, using the Fa Yin town to form in the fire, and the clear water on the other side is condensed with the essence of Taiyin (defense). Both of these can only exist for two or three days, and after these two or three days, even if there is a rune suppression, the essence of the Taiyin Sun will gradually dissipate, and it will not be long before the name of the pond and the fire swamp will be gone. ”

Speaking of this, Liu Ming sighed: "It is precisely because of such trouble that throughout the ages, most monks did not like to help people refine, but those monks were quite proficient in this path, allowing them to successfully gain a firm foothold." ”

"Is it so troublesome for us to refine every time?" Guan Cheng asked with some curiosity, according to his thinking, since the predecessors have already suffered a loss, then they should be ashamed and brave and make improvements, and the most important thing is that among the Taoist scriptures he has read in the past few months, there are also many that are dedicated to guiding the souls of the dead.

"The current transcendent method is naturally not so troublesome, but the soul I brought back this time is not badly qualified, and your master is not worried about you, so he wants to prepare a Dharma protector Yin soldier for you, so he will arrange the pool and fire swamp so troublesomely."

Saying that, Liu Ming explained in detail to Guan Cheng the problem of protecting the Yin Soldiers.

The essence of the Dharma Protector Yin Soldier is actually a ghost thing, the difference is that the Yin Qi driven by the Dharma Protector Yin Soldier is usually relatively pure, even if it is carried with him for a long time, it will not cause much harm to the human body. Comparatively speaking, although some demons and demons will also sacrifice Yin soldiers, they often like to use cruel methods, such as blood sacrifices, such as torture, to increase the power of ghosts.

The difference between the two is similar to the decent and evil in martial arts novels, the method of decency is demanding, and the introductory cultivation is slow, but it is better to be stable, there are fewer obstacles, and there will always be something to achieve in slow practice.

And the method of the evil sect, most of the swords go sideways, like to practice with the help of external forces, although it is very powerful at the beginning, but the more you go behind, the narrower the road, and you may even go crazy at any time!

Speaking of which, Liu Ming kept telling Guan Cheng some examples of using evil magic to raise ghosts and kill himself throughout the ages.

Although Guan Cheng is at the most rebellious age, his living environment since he was a child made him very moved by Liu Ming's concern, and he kept nodding his head yes.

The two are just like this, and one listens to it, but it is also very harmonious. Yuan Qingwei on the other side, after completing the preliminary preparations, slapped the gourd on the table, and the ink-colored gourd spit out a stream of black gas in his mouth, which fell into the clear water, revealing his true form.

It was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, as soon as he revealed his figure, his whole body exuded a strong thought, but he didn't have time to do other actions at all, Yuan Qingwei had already pinched the trick and shouted: "Three lights are bright, nine netherworlds." The night haze is clear, and the morning light is clear. Zhan Ci respects the face, and the dew is beautiful. The soul is refreshed, and the good journey is good. Listen to the scriptures and listen to the law, and get away with the real ......"

While chanting the mantra, Yuan Qingwei held a willow branch, stained with water, and sprinkled it on the young man, Liu Ming explained in a timely manner.

"This is the bathing method, in the Taoist theory, the dust is gone, life is in the world, the heart is not clean, the six dusts are all knowledge, the six senses are dirty, so after death, it is still in the mud, and it cannot be purified. Therefore, most of the souls are obsessed, and we use pure and compassionate water, drop by drop, wine, dip and wash, so that their hearts are pure, and their sins are eliminated, which is called bathing. In fact, to put it bluntly, it is to understand the negative emotions on the soul and restore it to its original nature, which is also the biggest difference between us and the evil sect of the Yin Soldier, those evil sects are eager to let the resentment and anger on the ghost things get as heavy as possible, and we can't be contaminated at all......"

Listening to Liu Ming's repeated admonition, Guan Cheng couldn't help nodding, and at the same time staring at the clear water firmly, as Yuan Qingwei washed it with willow branches again and again, the water in the basin gradually became a layer of ink, but in a moment, it was all blackened.

"Go!" Seeing this, Yuan Qingwei pointed his sword, and the young man who had bathed flew out uncontrollably and landed in the fire swamp.

The young man, who had just been bathed in clear water and looked a lot sober, immediately wailed, and black gas gushed out, and Guan Cheng was frightened and took half a step back.

"Don't feel cruel!" Liu Ming's face changed slightly, and he stepped forward to block Guan Cheng's sight, Yuan Qingwei turned his palm, shattered the young man, and then reintegrated. Liu Ming looked at his brows and jumped slightly, staring at Guan Cheng to explain: "For people who understand, only to know that this is a rare welfare, this child is obsessed with the soul and has become an obstacle, just now the bathing method is just to wash away the outermost obstacle of evil, at this time, with real fire exercise, in order to truly drive away the obsession that goes deep into the soul, there is the possibility of detachment." Moreover, the foundation of the existence of ghosts lies in obsession, and if they lose their obsession, whether they can rely on it or not depends on this true fire to reverse, reversing yin and yang. ”

When Guan Cheng heard this, he carefully observed the changes in the young man's soul, and after thinking about it carefully, he found that he was surrounded by black mist at first, and after being washed by clear water, his body dissipated a lot, and when he entered the fire swamp, it stabilized a lot, and even the original pale skin showed a little jade luster.

And this is also the true meaning of the Taoist water and fire, just like the soil, after washing and fire, turned into bricks and porcelain, can survive for a long time......

However, the quality of the clay and the craftsmanship of the refiner will determine whether the final result is a gorgeous porcelain or some coarse bricks and tiles.

This Dharma protector Yin soldier is used as a protector in the future, Yuan Qingwei has high requirements for it, and naturally he is not ready to settle, so while he is rolling in the fire swamp, he also takes out a piece of talisman paper, recites a spell to the air, and then presses it in the muddy water on the side. The rune paper fell into the water and naturally dissolved, and the silver moonlight converged, rippling on the water surface, the ink color gradually disappeared, and the pool was cleaned again.

In this way, after repeating it several times, a faint light appeared around the young man's body, and the original black and red clothes on his body also turned into white shrouds.

The weapons and armor spontaneously combusted without fire, and the boy made an extra sound of armor out of thin air in the light of the fire.

"Reach out!" Yuan Qingwei took out a small card and opened his mouth to Guan Cheng.

Guan Cheng didn't know what was going on, Liu Ming had already taken his hand, slashed his wrist, blood flowed out, Yuan Qingwei casually led it, half of the small card was dyed red, half mixed with cinnabar, ink to reconcile, and wrote the boy's name, god name, and birthday on the small card with a talisman pen.

"That's it! In the future, just put this small card in the Lingguan Palace. After speaking, Yuan Qingwei handed over the small card to Guan Cheng, who stopped the bleeding, and said to Liu Ming a little tiredly: "The rest of the matter, please ask Uncle Shi to explain one or two to him, I will go back to rest first." ”

"Good! Boss, have a good rest! Liu Ming saw Yuan Qingwei's tiredness, and after nodding, he left with Guan Cheng.

And Yuan Qingwei returned to his quiet room, immediately sat down cross-legged, sank into the sea of knowledge, and came to Qingwei Palace.
