Unsheathed Sword Chapter 36: The Golden Shuttle Talisman
After Li Zi and Xu Huaigu had enough of playing in the room, they didn't stay anymore, and after the two said goodbye, they went back to their respective rooms to rest.
Outside the window, the full moon had reached the middle of the night, and it was midnight, and it was pitch black, and everywhere was hoarse and speechless.
The white-robed Taoist priest Sun Xianglai suddenly appeared in Xu Huaigu's room without warning. Xu Huaigu only felt that there seemed to be a little touch in the darkness, and at this moment he opened his eyes, and when he looked up, he saw a Taoist priest holding a small cup of tea on the side of the table and taking a sip of it lightly.
The Taoist priest turned his head to him and went straight to the point: "Someone asked me to give you a big opportunity, and I accepted her love and agreed to her." You come to my side, and I will teach you the golden shuttle talisman that I have inherited in this vein. ”
Xu Huaigu was very puzzled, he couldn't believe him, he felt that the Taoist priest was as strange as ever today, he was a little stunned, and asked carefully: "Was it the spell you used to control those golden threads that day?" ”
"That's right."
Xu Huaigu shook his head suspiciously, and said carefully: "I don't want to learn, you have no reason why you won't teach me, who asked you to do this?" ”
Deng Paper Kite also appeared silently by the window, and the window was opened by her at some point, and a burst of silver light sprinkled into the room.
She said, "It's me, you can learn with confidence." ”
Xu Huaigu still didn't know why, and asked: "I don't have any credit, and I'm not your disciple, and you don't have any relationship with Senior Deng, why did you give me such a big opportunity?" ”
Deng Zhiyuan couldn't get used to his hesitant appearance, rolled his eyes, and said angrily: "This guy owes me a great favor, and I can't get over it if I don't pay it back." I see that you are pleasing to the eye, so I will use this favor on you, do you need a reason? Or do you think you have the right to turn me down? What I want to give you, even if you don't want it, you have to ask for it. ”
This is a bit unreasonable, Xu Huaigu is naturally unconvinced, and argues: "Whether I learn or not, how high the realm will be in the future, and even whether I live or die, is my own business, and it has nothing to do with you." I want to be in charge of my own life and not to be subservient to others. ”
After listening to Xu Huaigu's generous remarks, Deng Zhiyuan burst out laughing, and the Taoist priest also smiled slightly.
Deng Paper Kite sneered: "Hahaha, you said you want to be in charge of your own life? What do you rely on, does it depend on your mouth? Without realm and strength, what do you exchange for freedom, what do you say to control your life? Don't say it's you, you ask this old bastard next to you who has just stepped into the Ten Realms, even if it's me and him, are you at ease? It's not the same as running around every day, running around and fighting. Heaven and earth were originally a big cage, and under the cage, everyone was just a bird in a cage, but the size was different. ”
She said with high spirits, pointing to the sky outside, "See this day?" If you want to be at ease, if you want to really control yourself, you have to cut through the sky that covers everyone with a sword, and ascend to become an immortal, that is the real freedom! ”
There was a rare expression of longing on the Taoist priest's face. She is still the same as back then, she hasn't changed much.
She then said: "You came out of Qingling, you must know the inside story there." Once Molong is born, who can be at ease? The entire East Fuyao Island will be turned into a sea of fire, who will be spared? When the time comes, don't you have to rely on your mouth and your relationship with Molong to intercede with it and let it let you live? ”
Xu Huaigu frowned, thinking seriously about the pros and cons and knowledge in this.
Deng Zhiyuan said: "I saw your temper and appetite for me, so I told you so much." Otherwise, you go and see those people who kneel day and night at the gate of the Fuyao Sect, begging me to teach a few words, and help guide a few words of swordsmanship, who is not a handsome man who can be counted in that county? Do you think I'll ignore them? ”
After thinking about it, Xu Huaigu still agreed: "Okay, I'll learn." But I still have a question, how much strength does that ink dragon have, and what will become of the entire East Fuyao Continent after its invasion? And where do you people go from here? ”
Deng Zhiyuan frowned and said: "This is not something you have to think about now, it may be in the future, but it is definitely not now." What will happen to Dongfu Yaozhou, you will know when that day really comes. And what will happen to our current group of so-called mountain people, you don't care, anyway, it will only end up worse than the common people. ”
The Taoist priest sneered: "It's worse than the people...... Hahaha, a big cage, those who can get out don't want to go out, and those who want to get out are still kept in the dark and don't know, I really don't know why you are like this? ”
Deng Zhiyuan was not angry: "Yizhou is lucky, if a large number of lower-level monks flee, wouldn't Dongfu Yaozhou be even more shaky?" ”
The Taoist priest was confused and muttered a few words: "Dongfu Yaozhou...... A good East Fuyao Continent, Fuyao Continent is Fuyao Continent, obviously located in the westernmost part of the Central Region, why add an east character? ”
Xu Huaigu didn't understand, Deng Zhiyu didn't bother to pay attention to his knowingly asked, and said, "Hurry up and teach Xu Huaigu what kind of spell you have, and I will supervise you by the side." ”
The Taoist priest nodded and motioned for Xu Huaigu to come over. Xu Huaigu walked over, still a little excited. He knew that under the care of these two people, he would indeed not be in the slightest danger, and he began to look forward to the golden shuttle talisman that was about to be taught to him.
The Taoist priest was dressed in a crown, sat cross-legged, spread the snow-white Taoist robe on the ground, and pinched out two lotus handprints on his hands. Xu Huaigu also sat cross-legged opposite him, looking at the lotus seal on the Taoist priest's hand.
Strands of gold thread began to seep out of his body, and the Taoist handprints were constantly changing, using the lotus seal as a guide, and then pinching out the Taiji seal, Taishan seal, and finally ending with the net of heaven and earth. During this period, the process was extremely tedious, and the golden thread gradually danced with the change of gestures, and finally merged into a golden sphere the size of a heart, and there would be a rhythmic beat.
Deng Zhikite is also the first time to see the fundamental purpose of the secretary of Taihua Mountain.
The general idea of this spell is to use the talisman to bind this wisp of special golden aura between heaven and earth, and then use the heart to conceive and contain it, so that it can be combined with the life of the practitioner. If the gold thread survives, the person will survive, and if the person dies, the golden thread will also die. It's easy to say, but the actual operation doesn't know how cumbersome, just this wisp of golden aura doesn't know how to use wonderful means to bind it.
The Taoist priest's two fingers were pointed, pointing to the golden "heart", and then the fingertips were removed, and a small ball of gold filament condensed from the big golden "heart" was consciously separated, and then moved with the Taoist fingertips.
The Taoist priest's two fingers slammed towards Xu Huaigu's chest, and the golden threads danced with it, pouring all of them into Xu Huaigu's heart. This sudden step really startled Xu Huaigu, coupled with the golden silk pouring in, the pain in his chest was unspeakable, he immediately howled in pain, and he was about to cover his chest with his hand.
The Taoist priest raised it lightly with his other hand, and Xu Huaigu couldn't move when he wanted to raise the hand covering his chest.
Xu Huaigu gritted his teeth and cried out in pain, and the Taoist priest said coldly: "Don't move, you can't stand this pain, even if the chance hits your head, you can't catch it." If I use the mother talisman to give birth to the child talisman, and then teach you the means, I will graft it to you with my cultivation, and I myself will suffer the loss of my cultivation. This is already the easiest method, if you can't even do this, how can you talk about other spiritual cultivation! ”
Deng Zhiyuan watched coldly, but he didn't say a word for Xu Huaigu.
What the Taoist priest said is good, this opportunity is already a great thing that ordinary people can't ask for in a few lifetimes. And this also made the Taoist priest pay a certain price, and it would take a long time to conceive and raise the lost group of natal talismans, and it was just right to give it to Xu Huaigu.
This time, the Taoist priest was still decisive in his work, and he didn't hide it, which made Deng Zhiyuan feel in a good mood.
The pain of the golden thread drilling into his chest lasted for nearly three incense sticks, and Xu Huaigu was already soaked in sweat, and he didn't know what nonsense he was talking about, but he persevered.
With these two big men guarding the formation, the sound and movement will naturally not be transmitted to the slightest star. When he had refined all the gold threads in the sub-talisman for his own use, his body would also eliminate the pain, but instead become full of energy and energy.
Xu Huaigu gasped and slowly closed his eyes. He could clearly feel that there seemed to be a strange power in his heart, and his chest was a little tight. And the muscles and bones of his whole body are like dry soil watered by the rain, the pain dissipates, the whole body is refreshed, moist and smooth, just breathing a breath of air can be a small enjoyment.
This is the unique benefit of spiritual practice. Taking the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for one's own use not only prolongs life, but also enhances one's own strength. This kind of realm and Dao advancement feeling is really wonderful, so that once people taste the sweetness, they will only indulge in it, only thinking about cultivation and Taoism, and everything else is a foreign thing.
From ancient times to the present, everyone has been eager to enter the hall for spiritual practice, and most of the credit is to find this ultimate pleasure and desire, and the higher the realm, the more so. Those immortal people who have lived for more than a hundred years, what red and mundane things have not been seen? Where have the roads and bridges not been crossed? When you reach that realm, you will only feel full of interest in cultivation and mind cultivation, and the rest will be just a passing moment.
Therefore, Deng Zhiyuan's sword cut off his own realm cultivation, and he was not distressed and lost, and his sword heart was already extremely clear and bright. Just this state of mind that dares to give up the cultivation of a great realm is also a leader among the many immortals of the Ten Realms.
Cultivation and mind cultivation are born from the same root, and both sides support each other. Cultivation is inseparable from the cultivation of the mind, otherwise you will go mad. Cultivating the mind is also a kind of practice, so there is the epiphany that the children of Buddhism and Taoist sects say.
So there is a Taoist poem:
"Staying in the clouds and mountain streams, watching the idle flowers at dusk.
Enlightened overnight, one step to the clouds. ”
