Chapter 6, The Beginning of Cultivation
Bidding farewell to his father and mother, Li Xiuyuan walked to his bedroom. Since then, as long as you have passed the threshold of your parents, there will be no hidden danger in the origin of your own Buddhist secret scriptures. The Li family is the leading family in Wuzhou, and with the name of Yijie Zhenren, a Yuanying monk, no one will doubt that he practices any exercises.
Back in the bedroom, Li Xiuyuan thought about what kind of exercises he should use to enlighten himself. There are countless Buddhist scriptures, whether it is the "Yijin Sutra" that enters the Tao by force, or the "Amitabha Sutra" that enters Zen with the heart, it is the supreme treasure.
But they are two completely different paths. It is difficult to enter the Tao by force, but after practicing to the end of the world, one's own defense and recovery are extremely strong, and the disadvantage is that the entry into the realm is slow. Buddhism enters meditation with the heart, cultivates smoothly, and almost does not have a bottleneck in practice with his own understanding of Buddhist scriptures, but he lacks many means to save his life.
Li Xiuyuan can't be in this scholarly city for the rest of his life, but if he wants to get a piece of the circle of influence that has been solidified in this Xuanling world, the fight between life and death is inevitable. Buddhism not only needs the compassion of the Bodhisattva with a low brow, but now it needs the cruelty of Vajra's angry eyes.
Thinking of this, Li Xiuyuan made up his mind to enter the Tao with martial arts.
Li Xiuyuan sat cross-legged, cast a fearless seal in his hand, and entered into meditation. Two books came to mind: "The Dragon Elephant Prajna Sutra" and "Vajra is not bad".
The Dragon Elephant Sutra is the supreme protector of Buddhist Tantra. This scripture is divided into thirteen layers, the first layer of kung fu is very shallow, even if the qualifications are dull, as long as they study and practice hard, they can be practiced in one or two years. The second layer is twice as deep as the first, and it takes three or four years.
The time taken to practice each layer is twice as long as the previous one, and so on and so on, and the further you go, the more difficult it becomes. But every time you practice a layer, you have the power of one dragon and one elephant, and when you practice to the highest level, you have the power of thirteen dragons and thirteen elephants, which can move mountains and seas.
If someone attains the age of 1,000 years, they will reach the thirteenth level, but in Buddhism, those who are over 1,000 years old have attained the right results, and there is no need to continue to practice. But now that there is no trace of immortals in the Xuanling World, as long as he practices this "Dragon Elephant Prajna Sutra", he will definitely take advantage of it in the future sect attacks.
The second is "King Kong is not bad". This set of martial arts is the secret of the Buddhism of Middle-earth. The main attack is to refine the body, and the auxiliary attack is to train the qi. Cultivating both inside and outside tempers the body, true qi, and will. After practicing to the end of the world, it is indestructible, and all evils will not invade.
Once a cultivator performs this skill, the human body is like wearing gold armor and incarnates into the body of Vajra, which can resist the attack of all external forces. If you cultivate this skill to perfection, you can get a glimpse of the Mahayana path and become an arhat.
Li Xiuyuan thought for a long time, since the two books are difficult to choose, then cultivate at the same time.
After determining the basic exercises, Li Xiuyuan began to practice. I saw that his Zen mind was settled, and he visualized two scriptures in his mind, and once he flipped through the Buddhist sound in his mind, he sang a burst of Zen.
After a long time, Li Xiuyuan slowly opened his eyes. He had already memorized the contents of the two books, so he didn't have to contemplate them every time while cultivating.
Thinking of this, he went to the front yard to find his father Li Wan and asked for a few Bigu Dan. He told his father that during this period of time, he would retreat and practice, and strive to make up for all the things he had pulled down over the years. Li Wan heard that he loved his son's diligence and felt sorry for his son's hard work.
But then he said that he absolutely supported Li Xiuyuan's idea, as long as he cultivated with peace of mind, the materials used in cultivation would be placed at the door of the small courtyard in the bedroom regularly.
Li Xiuyuan thanked his father, returned to his bedroom, and began a long retreat without sleeping or eating.
Another year passed in the blink of an eye, and Li Xiuyuan woke up from meditation. At this time, he was already in the early stage of the Shami, which was probably equivalent to the third to fourth layer of the Xuanling Continent's condensation qi.
In addition, the "Dragon Elephant Prajna Sutra" on his body has been practiced to the first level, and he has the power of one dragon and one elephant. "King Kong is not bad magic" has also been practiced in the first volume of "Iron Head Gong", the head is as hard as iron, and it is difficult to hurt the slightest bit when an ordinary sword is cut on the head. At this time, even if he was a monk of the seventh or eighth layer of condensation, Li Xiuyuan was confident that he would fight.
Li Xiuyuan stood up and moved his muscles and bones, with the "Dragon Elephant Prajna Sutra" by his side, at this time he felt that he had the strength to carry the mountain and lift the mountain, and his body was extremely resilient. Carrying the iron head gong, he is invulnerable from the neck and above.
The Dragon Elephant Sutra is the most powerful method of attack, and it is the strongest spear. "King Kong is not bad" is indestructible and is the strongest shield. Do you want to slap yourself on the top of your head and see if the spear is sharper or the shield is stronger?
Thinking of this, Li Xiuyuan quickly cut off his thoughts. In case the spear is sharper, as soon as I am able to cultivate, I will be slapped to death by myself.
Isn't it that this little flame of Buddhism was extinguished by a soak of urine as soon as it could be lit? So Li Xiuyuan stopped thinking nonsense, and he hadn't seen his parents for a year, and went to see if his parents were well.
So the first thing I did when I went out was to say hello to my father and mother. When I walked to the main hall, I saw my father, my second uncle Li Qian, and my third uncle Li Bai sitting in the hall, frowning.
Li Xiuyuan went over to salute the elders and asked, "Father, two uncles, I just came out of retreat today, and I saw you frowning, I don't know what is going on? I might be able to help a little."
Li Wan said: "Xiuyuan, you just came out of the customs today, and your father should have celebrated for you, but the family has indeed encountered some trouble recently. Now that you've grown up, there's something about the family that you should know. Second, tell Xiu Yuan about the recent affairs of the Zeng family."
Li Xiuyuan's second uncle, Li Qian, continued: "Xiuyuan, you also know that although my Li family is the leader of the various factions in Scholarly City, there are still a few forces in the city that can wrestle with my Li family, one of which is the Nancheng Zeng family.
The second son of his family, Zeng Wubei, has been practicing in Zhizhou Yaowang Valley since he was an adult at the age of twelve, and he heard that his talent for refining medicine is really extraordinary. This return to his hometown was not only escorted by two elders of the division in the late stage of foundation building, but also brought the Danfang of the blood coagulation pill to the Zeng family.
In the past, this Blood Clotting Pill was purchased by several of our major families in the Medicine King Valley, and then came back and sold it to the monks in the city to earn the difference. During this time, the Zeng family got the Dan prescription and made their own alchemy. The price is a full thirty percent lower than that of my Lijiafang City, and we have stopped selling the Blood Clotting Pill during this time, and now we have nothing to do. ”
Li Xiuyuan closed his eyes when he heard this, but in fact, at this time, he was visualizing the pill prescription in his mind, and he couldn't come up with too good, which was unreasonable. But it can't be too bad, otherwise it won't be competitive with the Zeng family.
After a long time, Li Xiuyuan opened his eyes and said to Li Qian: "Second uncle, there are a few pages in the secret book given to me by the real person of the first ring that is Danfang. One of the pills is called Qi Xuesan, and the effect is similar to that of the Blood Coagulation Pill, I will find this pill for you now, you can let the family alchemist refine it first. If it works, we'll refine it in large quantities. ”
Li Qian was overjoyed when he heard this: "Xiuyuan, you are really the blessed general of the family, you brought us such great good news as soon as you got out of the customs." Go and get the Dan Fang, and I'll arrange someone to try it. ”
Li Xiuyuan went out and returned to the bedroom, took out a blank piece of paper and wrote down the Danfang in his mind, and walked back to the main hall quickly.
The alchemist who Li Qian called looked at the Dan Fang and said, "There is nothing wrong with looking at the drug ratio, I just don't know if I can become a Dan, so I will try it."
After saying that, he hurriedly walked to the Dan room in the side hall, and after a while, he saw this alchemist coming with a happy face: "I refine according to the little boy's Dan formula, not only the Dan success rate is quite high, and the medicinal effect is similar to the Blood Coagulation Pill, but also according to the Zeng family's purchase volume and the number of Dan out, the cost is one and a half times lower than the Zeng family's current Blood Coagulation Pill!"
