It turned out that Xi Yingzhen visited his old friend Ji Tan Zongxi in Qingliang Mountain not long ago, and when he was drinking tea and talking happily, the two predicted the fortune of the world, and they both believed that the sky would change greatly in five years, the peaceful years would end, and the world would rekindle the flames of war. Although the Quartet is stable, but the hidden dangers still exist, the northern grassland tribes are brave and brave, and they are not willing to accept their failures, and are sharpening their knives, hoping to make a comeback one day. The island countries in the east have coveted the land and products of China's land for a long time, and they have ill intentions, and sooner or later they will invade them. And the tribes of the Western Regions and the southwestern Tibetans are also incompatible with our empire. When the empire is strong and the strong lord is in power, the marriage shows goodwill, submits to the subordinate, and once the Central Plains is in turmoil, it is ready to move and take advantage of the fire to rob.

Looking back on history, this monk and his family all believe that if the will of heaven is like this, war is inevitable, then the shorter the time, the better, five years is a time dividing line, once the war exceeds five years, it will lead to the division of the country, the confrontation between the north and the south or the confrontation between the east and the west, and no matter how serious it is, it will attract foreign enemies to invade and repeat the situation of chaos in China or foreign nationalities entering the Central Plains.

For the big fortune, the predictions of the two worldly masters are surprisingly consistent, and they even hope that there will be artificial intervention to influence the development of the situation. However, there were obvious differences between the two sides on the specific intervention: Ji Tan Zongxi believed that it was necessary to go with the sky in order to end the war as soon as possible and restore peace to the world; Xi Yingzhen believed that since the sky was falling apart, it meant that the fortunes of the country had changed, and that it was necessary to act against the sky and turn things around.

You must know that on the surface, it seems that it is just two old friends drinking tea and chatting, expounding their respective views and expressing different opinions, but in fact, it is not. You must know that both of them are leaders of the Buddha and the Tao, and their views have been recognized in their respective sects, if the two reach a consensus today, the two of them will work together to deal with and control the situation in this future event. There have been many precedents in history when Buddhism and Taoism have joined forces, and the result has been a win-win situation, and everyone is happy.

It is important to know that any religion or ideology wants to be recognized and supported by those in power in order to carry it forward. After the Han Dynasty deposed the hundred schools, Confucianism was respected, and other ideas were suppressed to varying degrees. Therefore, once there is a change in the world, each family hopes to find a suitable spokesperson or protector in advance and win the struggle in the future. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, Zhang Shicheng received the support and attention of Buddhism because he cherished the people, respected literature and agriculture, governed the region in a stable and harmonious manner, and treated the monks well. It's a pity that among the contemporaries, there is still a generation of male protagonist Zhu Yuanzhang who has only been born for hundreds of years, and even the sinister, cunning, fierce and cruel Chen Youliang is not his opponent, let alone the generous and benevolent Zhang Shicheng?

After the two of them broke down, they didn't turn their faces, and the monks were all particular about the point, but they were all seizing the time to find their own Dharma protector afterwards.

In fact, the two of them already had their own candidates in mind, but they didn't make a final decision. Ji Tan Zongxi recommended Shen Chaixing to Buddhism, so much so that he encouraged Shen Chaixing to go down the mountain to practice, and in the future, he would send him to ask for help. And Xi Yingzhen is really interested in the blue moon. That's why Xi Yingzhen immediately went to Zhongling Spring to fetch water when he saw Lan Yue for the second time, and the inn made tea, in order to leave a deep impression on Lan Yue. Of course, the reason for all this is that the monk and the Taoist will not talk about it to these two people at this time, because the opportunity has not yet arrived.

At this moment, Xi Yingzhen suddenly asked Lan Yue with a serious face if there was a strange poison in his body? Lan Yue's heart was shocked, thinking that this old way is powerful! Liu Ji still has to give me a pulse to see that he can know just by looking at me. His face was silent, just nodded faintly.

Xi Yingzhen immediately asked Lan Yue to stretch out his hand, and after taking his left hand, his face became more and more solemn, and then he raised his right hand, and couldn't help frowning and sighing.

Lan Yue was not surprised because she had already learned about the situation from Liu Ji, and her face was still expressionless. Unexpectedly, Xi Yingzhen actually laughed!

Lan Yue's heart was furious, and she couldn't help but ask, "Dao Chief, my poison won't be so serious, right?"

Only then did Xi Yingzhen stop laughing and said, "The poison you have is indeed extremely poisonous, and the most important thing is that it is difficult for others to resolve it except for the person who poisoned it. ”

Blue Moon asked puzzledly, "Why is the Dao Leader so happy, is this interesting?"

Xi Yingzhen shook his head and said, "It's not interesting, it's not interesting! I'm laughing because I'm happy for you!" After that, he turned his head to look at Lan Yue's face.

Lan Yue was now a little tired of playing dumb riddles with Lao Dao, and just looked back at Lao Dao calmly, her face expressionless.

Seeing that Lan Yue didn't pick up, Lao Dao sighed as if he was quite bored, and then said slowly: "This matter is a long story, let me tell me slowly." Taoism is also divided into north and south, the north has Quanzhen, Zhenda, Taiyi Religion, and the south is Zhengyi Religion and Jingming Religion, each sect has its own treasure of the town religion. For example, the treasure of my Pure Ming Sect - Jindan Dafa. ”

Xi Yingzhen glanced at Lan Yue, saw that he was listening very seriously, and continued: "Jindan practice has existed in ancient times, and it is said that this method was passed on to Guangchengzi in ancient times, and it was completed in the Han Dynasty, and Ge Hong of the Eastern Jin Dynasty pushed Jindan practice to the peak. Although Jin Dan is good, there is only one drawback, although some Jin Dan can increase power in a short period of time, but it has strong toxicity. This problem was not solved until the Northern Song Dynasty by my Taoist immortal master Zhang Boduan, who used the principle of poison to fight poison to refine the golden pill, which is not only harmless to the human body, but also can detoxify, and at the same time can increase power. So much so that Zhang Boduan once said very proudly: 'If you swallow a pill in your stomach, my life is up to me,' but the golden pill he practiced was only effective for alchemists who were poisonous to their bodies, and ordinary people ate five poisons but also useless. After the Southern Song Dynasty, the method of Outer Dan was gradually abandoned, and Taoist people began to pay attention to cultivating Inner Dan with their own three treasures - essence, qi and spirit, which was safe and reliable, but the effect was slow. Fortunately, the monks have time, and their temperament is not in a hurry, so they just cultivate slowly. ”

Lao Dao talked about it for a long time, but still didn't enter the topic, what was surprising was that Lan Yue actually showed a patient side, without the slightest impatience, and when Lao Dao said that his mouth was dry, he would take the initiative to refill Xi Yingzhen's tea. Lao Dao saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help but become more and more satisfied with Blue Moon.

Xi Yingzhen took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and continued: "In my generation, the same sect only knows the method of the inner dan, and will not refine the outer dan. By chance, I got two golden pills left by Zhang Boduan, a Song man, and I was overjoyed as if I had received a treasure. But after a few days, I was reluctant to take it, because my body was not toxic, and I was afraid that the effect would not be great after taking it, and I would waste this treasure in vain. ”

"For a few days, I didn't think about tea, I didn't want to eat, I tossed and turned all night, and I couldn't sleep at night. Finally, one day, I gritted my teeth, thinking about Zhang Boduan's sentence 'My life is up to me', and I took the poison. ”

"Ahh

Lao Dao glanced at it, couldn't help but be a little proud, and continued: "It's just that I'm an acute person, how can I wait for the chronic poison to attack, and then take Jindan? Of course, the several poisons I took are all acute attack types, and after a short time of toxic attacks, I suddenly became dizzy, and my hands and feet gradually lost consciousness, and I regretted it to death at that time, if I died of poison before I ate Jindan, it would have become the biggest joke in Taoism." So I used the last bit of strength in my body to swallow a golden pill into my stomach, haha, even if I die, I have to taste the taste of golden pill!"

Lan Yue looked at Lao Dao, who was completely caught in his memory, and sighed in her heart: "Only people who are persistent like this can do such crazy things, and only crazy people can succeed, how many of those heroes and heroes and great things throughout the ages are not crazy? Xi Ying can really have such an achievement, it is not a fluke." I can't help but feel a little more sincere admiration for Lao Dao.

Xi Yingzhen continued: "Who knows that Zhang Boduan's golden pill has a very effective effect on chronic poisons and can be slowly dissolved. But how can I wait for the acute poison in my body, as the so-called far water can't save the near fire. In a hurry, I suddenly remembered the inner pill I usually cultivated, and I was busy using the guidance technique of practicing the inner pill to combine the inner and outer pills into one. The process is wonderful. ”

"Gradually, I figured out some doorways. Later, not only was the poison completely resolved, but my skills made incredible breakthroughs and growths, and I felt that I had become a half-immortal body! Later, I combined that experience with the secret method of this sect to create the Jindan Dafa, although there are only four forms of Yuan, Heng, Li, and Zhen, but if you cooperate with the Jindan cultivation, the effect is even better. ”

Lao Dao returned to reality from his memories, looked at Lan Yue with a serious face, slowly took out an iron box with several bandages from his body, opened the lid of the box, took out a pill, and immediately smelled a strange smell, sent it to Lan Yue, and said: "Now, after taking the Jin Dan, I will pass on your Jin Dan Dafa!"

Lan Yue shook her head and said, "The Dao Chief's kindness Lan Yue can't help but be grateful, but Lan Yue can't accept the Dao Chief's treasures, and asks the Dao Master to take it back." ”
