Chapter 180: The Washing of the Marrow Sutra
Outside the valley there is heavy snowfall, but the moon is sparse in the valley.
Yan Yunting cleaned up the small curie inside and out, and decided to retreat here in the future.
Afterwards, he picked up some dry firewood and burned a bunch of work in the small courtyard, roasting pheasants while studying Su Zhen's notes.
For some reason, since stepping into this small residence, his impetuosity has been inadvertently swept away, replaced by a sense of destiny.
Compared with the fights and killings in the outside world, people are sophisticated, there are small bridges and flowing waters, accompanied by stars and moons, which are more affectionate and cordial.
Su Zhen's notes have dozens of volumes, and there are millions of words scattered when counted, all of which are his daily cultivation perceptions and experiences, and there are very few records of martial arts training, but the perception of heaven and earth, and the philosophy of the world.
It's not strange to think about it, Su Zhen has lived for more than 400 years, and he has already won the rivers and lakes by force, he abandoned his power and status, and lived in seclusion in the mountains, isn't it just to cultivate his mind?
"Alas...... It's written so profoundly, I can't understand it. Yan Yunting closed his note.
"Crackling......" bonfires burn.
"Squeak squeak...... "Roast chicken fat flowing oil, fragrant to the nose.
"Whew......" The little tiger ran around the campfire, his saliva almost touching the ground.
"Well, if only I could be as carefree as you." Yan Yunting took off the roast chicken, pulled a chicken leg and threw it to the little tiger.
So, a man and a tiger, eating roast chicken, roasting a bonfire, looking at the night sky, calmly about to spend this long dark night.
"Hiss ......"
Suddenly, a faint spitting sound came from the darkness not far away.
The little tiger also noticed the abnormality, and did not even gnaw the bones, and rushed to the far door and howled vigorously.
There is a demonic spirit!
Yan Yunting grabbed the little tiger and put it in his arms, pulled out his gall and rushed out of the courtyard door, and said, "Where is the demon, don't show up quickly!" ”
"Hiss ......"
"Rustling ......"
Two hateful snake eyes shone out in the darkness, and a brown-scaled python leaned over from the side of the courtyard, of course Yan Yunting recognized it, wasn't it the beast that attacked the white-haired old man?
"What? Are you trying to come to me for revenge? Yan Yunting's eyes were sharp, and he pointed at the giant python.
The giant python stood up with its head, twice as tall as Yan Yunting, and it changed its position left and right, as if looking for an opportunity to strike.
This man-snake war seems to be inevitable.
Yan Yunting made a decision immediately, waved his hand and slashed out a sword qi, preemptively!
Don't look at the huge body of the giant python, but it moves quite quickly, glance at it, and easily dodge the sword qi, it opens its bloody mouth and rushes towards Yan Yunting!
Yan Yunting jumped on the spot, and slashed two sword qi in the air, but before he could get close to the giant python, he was easily dodged by it, and when he landed, the giant python suddenly swung its tail, and he hurriedly crossed the sword to defend, but was shocked by the huge impact and flew thirty zhang away!
This python, there's something!
Yan Yunting pulled out the firecracker, and shot at the giant python while retreating, and with the suppression of the bullet, he retreated ten feet back!
When the distance was enough, he gathered his sword intent and thrust it into the ground, and in an instant, the extremely cold qi spread to the earth, and half of the stream froze into ice!
If you can't reach ten miles of frost, why is it difficult to get half a mile of frost?
The back half of the giant python's body was firmly imprisoned by the ice, Yan Yunting saw that the opportunity had come, drew his sword and soared into the sky, exerted all his strength, and stabbed the giant python's seven inches!
"Poof!"
The gall pierced the body of the giant python, and a fishy green juice splashed Yan Yunting's face, and the giant python struggled desperately and howled!
"Good guy, the snake gall is broken, and it can still move, is its vitality tenacious enough!" Yan Yunting grabbed the hilt of the sword with both hands and twisted it fiercely, completely smashing the snake gall!
The giant python screamed miserably, fell to the ground and stopped moving!
"Phew!" Yan Yunting wiped the bile on his face, picked up the snake's tail, and planned to throw it away, but at this time, the little tiger in his arms suddenly jumped out, and it ran to the head of the snake, screaming loudly.
"Little thing, snake animal, it's hard to die, be careful that it swallows you in one bite." Yan Yunting didn't care much.
But the little tiger ran back, bit him by the leg of his trousers, and dragged him towards the head of the snake.
"What's wrong?" Yan Yunting was puzzled and followed the little tiger to the head of the snake.
The little tiger slashed the snake's head desperately with its claws, as if to break the snake's mouth.
Yan Yunting frowned slightly, stepped on the snake's head, and jumped open the snake's mouth with the sword body, but he never thought that the little tiger would even get in!
Yan Yunting couldn't help but be stunned, and before he could figure out what was going on, the little tiger came out of the snake's mouth with a brown scroll in his mouth.
The little tiger put the scroll at Yan Yunting's feet, and then sat down obediently.
Yan Yunting picked up the scroll, wiped off the mucus on it, and after opening it, he found that there was an ancient book embedded in it, and there were three big characters written on the cover of the ancient book - "Washing the Marrow Sutra".
Washing the marrow meridian?
Yan Yunting roughly browsed the table of contents and found that this "Washing the Marrow Sutra" is divided into six articles:
"Beginningless Clock: The universe has a reason, and it is difficult to understand it. Whoever can attain enlightenment belongs to the vitality......
Four false combinations: the vitality is long-lasting, turning into water, fire and soil, water is on the top of Kunlun, and Sida pit well injection......
All saints return together: ordinary people pretend to be true, beautiful clothes are body ornaments, and they are in vain to serve others. Food is the same for everyone, day after day......
Everything is the same: everything is not everything, it is the same body as me, and all forms are conjured up, and it assists in business......
Walking, living, sitting and lying: walking like a blind without a cane, vipassana sexuality, low feet and steamed buns, practical and progressive......
Pulp washing and reduction: After the pulp washing is completed, it will become a diamond body, and the external sense cannot invade, and the diet is not a accumulation ......"
The whole scripture is recorded in ancient dialects, which is difficult to read and obscure, but the general gist Yan Yunting can understand:
To wash the marrow, to wash the marrow, is to wash away the mortal body and reach the realm of rebirth. Just as recorded in the last article, "After the marrow washing is completed, it will become a vajra body." ”
The vajra body is easy to understand, for example, Yuwen Changqing's servant A Liao, he practiced the Vajra Divine Skill, his body was as solid as a rock, and he was invulnerable.
Even many martial arts of Zen Buddhism are promoted on the vajra body, such as the golden bell jar, the iron sand palm, and the iron cloth shirt......
"My little tiger, you are really a treasure, I will make you roast chicken every day in the future!" Yan Yunting picked up the little tiger and rubbed it on his face affectionately.
But then he felt puzzled, how could this giant python hide a book in his mouth for no reason?
The giant python wanted to eat the white-haired old man, Yan Yunting drove away the giant python, and then the giant python took advantage of the night to retaliate, and after being killed, he was guided by the little tiger to find the scriptures.
The white-haired old man, the giant python, the little tiger, the marrow washing meridian...... Is it a coincidence? Or did someone do it on purpose?
