Chapter 7: A Short Time of Practice
Wen Shizhen's figure dissipated, and Lin Xiao left the Patriarch Hall helplessly. When Yu Daoren saw Lin Xiao walking out of the ancestral hall, he didn't say anything, but just led Lin Xiao back to the side hall again. The two sat down again, and Yu Daoren said: "Uncle Lin, the ancestor still has a will, ask the disciple to accompany the uncle to practice the method, and then Uncle Lin can act at will." ”
Lin Xiao knew that he couldn't ask anything else, so he had to nod, but someone sparred, ~~ Hehe, said it was a sparring partner, more pointers, even if he was the reincarnation of Da Luo Jinxian, he had not awakened his wisdom at this time, he was also a novice practitioner, and it was a beginner in practice, and it was better for someone to point out, and Yu Changwen's name, when Lin Xiao studied the Taoist scriptures in the past, he also knew that Yu Changwen was one of the ten friends of Louguan Daotian Valley, and he was also a powerful figure in Taoist inheritance, and it was more than enough to guide himself to practice.
"Today, our Lou Guan Dao is not a standout, and the ancestor has another Taoist lineage, which is a faction of the Emei Sword Immortal. The Emei Dao system is rooted in sword cultivation, and it is a vein of the Dharma protector of our Daomen. My Lou Guan Tao is too clear and passed on, with purity as the law, according to the patriarch, the red dust is disturbed, but in a hundred years, the Lou Guan Tao will be divided into two veins, one hidden and one revealed. The hidden vein is the Tao, and the incarnation is only for inheritance, and the Dharma era will reappear in the world after thousands of years, and the Taoist Taoism will be preached. Therefore, Uncle Lin, after more than 100 years, when you come to Zhongnan Mountain again, all you can see is the Xianmai lineage. ”
"That means I'll be here for a hundred or ten years at most?"
"No, the patriarch's meaning is that Uncle Lin can only ask for help from the hidden vein of Wulou Guandao when he encounters something in the past hundred and ten years, and once a hundred years have passed, there is no need for Uncle Lin to return to this place. ”
"Oh, it's so unforgiving. Lin Xiao's heart was tumbling.
"Uncle Lin, don't worry about not having a channel to help, the sword immortal of the Emei line will not sit idly by and watch Uncle Lin ask for help. “
Lin Xiao nodded, "That's right, it's all Taiqing Xuanmen Dao, pretentious and righteous, how can it be that you don't care about being in danger and asking for help." “
However, the next sentence of the Taoist made Lin Xiao's mood sink to the bottom again like a roller coaster, "Uncle Lin, the ancestor has a life, and you will not be allowed to seek help from the Emei Sword Immortal for two hundred years, so you can only rely on yourself." It is estimated that at this time, the Daoist friends of the Emei Sword Immortal have already obtained the Patriarch's decree. “
"Well, all the back doors are closed, and you're on your own. It's really relying on the mountains and the water. “
Time flies, Lin Xiao lingered in Louguan Dao for another month, and reviewed and practiced all the tricks he had learned in the library under the guidance of the Taoist, and then was sent out of Zhongnan Mountain by the Daoist - it may not be enough to send it to the image, but it is actually a trick that sent Lin Xiao out thousands of miles away.
However, Lin Xiao didn't just practice the magic trick this month, don't forget that Lin Xiao also got a ray of golden light from Wen Shizhen. These days, Lin Xiao also took a closer look at what was here: a sword, a talisman, a robe, a ring, a purple gold crown, a warm jade lotus, and a silk silk, in addition, there is also a scripture "Strange Things of the Heavens". Then, it's gone. Fortunately, Daoist Yu told Lin Xiao about the current situation in the cultivation world in this month.
According to Lin Xiao's thoughts, before leaving, he also collected a lot of talisman and instrument materials from Louguandao, although it is not a high-end material (high-end materials Lin Xiao can't use now), but it is enough for Lin Xiao to practice. Lin Xiao doesn't want to play any high-end, but at least he must be able to play a role in self-defense and self-protection, right?
In fact, Lin Xiao is not worried about encountering any demons and monsters now, but he is afraid of encountering some dangerous areas. Fighting with others, Lin Xiao at least has a trick of "escape", when he encounters a dangerous area, once he falls into a dangerous area, he may not be able to escape. Moreover, now that the Central Plains region has been developed for a long time, natural and earthly treasures are rare, so if you want to mix well in this time and space, you still have to equip yourself with some powerful magic weapons to save your life.
But in this way, Lin Xiao will have to travel around the world.
However, traveling around the world is not the first priority, going around Chang'an, and then going to Shuzhong is Lin Xiao's idea.
Chang'an has once again become the political center of Guanlong since the beginning of the Western Wei Dynasty, and after the careful restoration of Yuwentai, it has become a rare prosperous city in North China by the Northern Zhou Dynasty. However, although the Northern Zhou Dynasty was a divided national force, it would soon be usurped by Yang Jian, and then unify China, so it was the time when the dragon vein flourished, and the natural suppression of the people in the immortal road. However, Lin Xiao's cultivation is very different from the "Huang Ting Sutra" that is very different from the cultivators at this time, so the suppression is not great, but it is a benefit.
In fact, Lin Xiao in Chang'an does not have any clear purpose, mainly to see the prosperity of this era, Lin Xiao knows that this is a fairy era, different from the world he originally knew, but since he came, he must get to know it.
Chang'an is worthy of the imperial capital, the future capital of the Sui and Tang empires, although there is no Tang Dynasty at this time, but Chang'an has still begun to take shape - the capital of the Han Empire has long been destroyed in the fire of the past dynasties, and Chang'an at this time was rebuilt in the Western Wei era.
Even if it is rebuilt, the buildings of Chang'an City have formed different functional distinctions such as the Fang City and the official residence palace, and of course it is impossible for Lin Xiao to wander around the official residences of all levels in a Taoist robe, and what does the officials have to do with Lin Xiao? It is better to take advantage of the absence of Bigu and taste the food of this era first.
Since the two Jin Dynasty, both high-ranking officials and scattered scholars like to wear Taoist robes, so Lin Xiao's dress is not outstanding, but Lin Xiao is now considered to be successful in practicing qi, although he has no mana, but he is rich and jade, and his eyes are like paint, which is even more ordinary. Walking on the street market, it has attracted the attention of many young girls.
Although Lin Xiao is not a flamboyant person, when he saw the appearance of ancient Chang'an City for the first time, he looked left and right for a while, and he felt dizzying. The first time I saw the ancient city of Chang'an, it didn't take long for Lin Xiao to feel uncomfortable, as if he had come from the land of birds and flowers in the wild, to the abalone where the sewage flowed.
However, Hongchen refines the heart, only when it is clear, can the state of mind go further, besides, the cultivator is also inseparable from the red dust, otherwise where does the disciple come from? Isn't it from the red dust? Lin Xiaoming realized this, although the mana has not improved much, but the state of mind has reached a higher level, the so-called "see through the red dust", only by falling into the red dust can you see through it! The seven emotions and six desires of the mortals of the red dust, the cultivators also have them, but they are more hidden and firmer, so there are clouds on the ground: good and evil are easy to go, and obsessions are difficult to eliminate. The cultivation of the Dao Gate is to stay away from the seven emotions and six desires, and to transform the heavenly heart with one's own heart, so as to achieve the Heavenly Immortal Dao Fruit;
Whether it is cultivating immortals or demons, it is always inseparable from the seven emotions and six desires.
If you want to use the seven emotions and six desires to practice, you need to enter the red dust, the Daomen Immortal Cultivation is to experience the seven emotions of others to understand your own body, and the Demon Gate Cultivation is to use the seven emotions of others to strengthen the seven emotions of your own body, and finally turn into the Tao Fruit.
Therefore, the cultivation of the Dao Gate is very detached, and the cultivation of the Demon Gate is often due to the lack of great concentration, and finally becomes a puppet of the extraterritorial heavenly demons. However, compared to the Dao Gate, the cultivation needs a more important foundation, so it is slow, and the Demon Gate is brave and diligent, and then make up for it after some achievements, so the early stage of entry is rapid, so many people with poor mental nature will choose the method of Demon Gate cultivation, always overestimate their mental concentration, and as a result, they can never turn back, even if they are reincarnated, because the karma of karma is too heavy before, they need to pay a greater price to make up for it, and some still need to turn around many times before there is a chance to pull it out.
Different from the Taoist Gate and the Demon Gate, the Buddhist practice is more focused on understanding and root fruits, and if you fail to practice in one life, you will come back in reincarnation, and you will continue to make great wishes and accumulate good deeds, and there will always be a lifetime of successful practice, and once you enter the Buddhist gate, you will practice for the rest of your life, and eventually you will enter the Buddha Gate and cultivate into the Arhat and Bodhisattva fruit. The earliest reincarnation of the Han Dynasty monk, is the Eastern Han Dynasty reincarnated Tianmeng Zen Master, Shushan in the original book of Xie Shan, is the younger brother of Tianmeng, repeatedly reincarnated practice, and finally in Emei when he opened the mansion, he knew his body and returned to Buddhism.
The description of Xie Shan in the original book has been said, which Xie Shan also dreamed that he seemed to be a Taoist priest and a monk at times, and in this life, he first practiced the immortal Taoist method and found an ancient oil lamp at the bottom of the sea, which began to have some hearts towards Buddhism.
With Lin Xiao's Taoism, it is not his turn to judge the immortals in the world now, so he should leave early in the face of Hongchen. If you want to say that Hongchen refines the heart, Lin Xiao has gone through the era of the flood of Internet information in later generations, whether it is the lights and wine, or Dongying's cartoons, it is not less knowledgeable, compared with the arrogance of the northern barbarians in this era, it can only be said that after the barbarian culture is mixed, it is still a kind of pediatrics - women in this era do not have small hot pants, camisoles, and bikinis to wear!
As far as the Demon Sect is most willing to practice and use this as a bad human foundation, even if it is half-concealed and half-concealed, it is the most seductive and spiritual, and it is ineffective for Lin Xiao, without him, he is well-informed. Besides, the Demon Gate Dao method is more inclined to yin and evil, and the abundant qi and blood of martial arts practitioners are the nemesis of magic and yin evil, so Lin Xiao is not afraid of the Demon Dao method, and unlike ordinary qi practitioners, Lin Xiao was born in martial arts, just like the ancient generals, his qi and blood are not suppressed by the dragon qi of the dynasty, so he is not afraid of someone beating his own ideas.
Because Lin Xiao had already noticed that there were a lot of sneaky people who were always moving around him, and they were constantly looking at him with hostile eyes. It made Lin Xiao also feel a little bit like the second monk~ feeling confused.
