Chapter 12 Heaven and Earth Righteousness
After Li Xuan studied the two functions of the pagoda, he began to study the exercises again. After the first layer of the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda of Heaven and Earth was repaired, a piece of information came out of it, which was actually the first layer of the Xuanhuang Merit Technique.
At this time, a new meridian was opened up in Li Xuan's exercise line, and the golden air flow that had been filled with the meridians also appeared to be a little sparse, and the feeling of bulging in the meridians disappeared.
Li Xuan first ran this first layer of exercises for twelve weeks, and felt that his strength was much greater, and there was also a feeling of fluttering immortal on his body, if he had a pair of wings, he would definitely fly.
Li Xuan tried to jump up with his legs, and actually jumped up more than three meters high at once, startling himself.
Because it was the first time he had jumped so high, he was so busy in the air that he didn't have a good balance, and his butt actually fell to the ground. Fortunately, his coordination is still good, and when he was about to land, he did a backflip with his waist, and finally landed on the ground with both feet, but he almost fell on his heels. This made Li Xuan and Li Shaoxia, who were pregnant with a heroic plot, very ashamed. Seeing that there was no one else on the mountain, he practiced a lot of light body kung fu until he could turn a few heels in the air at a height of more than three meters and make a few tricks before he would give up.
For the first layer of the Xuanhuang merit formula, the pagoda passed on some annotations to him.
Through Li Xuan's understanding, the name of this layer of exercises should be called "Jinde Zhizheng", and the cultivation is the righteousness of heaven and earth.
"Positive", from one to the end, to keep the other. Fang Zhi is not bent to say that it is right, strong and upright, and the gentleman is upright. "Righteousness is the foundation, and virtue is the foundation. "Who dares to be upright?" "His body is upright and does not obey orders, and his body is not right, although he does not obey orders."
Most of these sentences are ancient Chinese of the Huaxia Kingdom, and Li Xuan really can't understand it. It's just that I feel that it should be said to be upright, decent, and righteous. Only when you walk straight and walk right can you make others walk straight and walk right.
In fact, the first layer of cultivating the Xuanhuang merit recipe can be said to be a process of meditation, heart washing, and heart nourishment. By bathing in the golden light of merit, the cultivator can perceive the righteousness of heaven and earth, so that the soul can be purified in the righteousness of heaven and earth, and the righteousness of heaven and earth can be nourished in merit, and the accumulation of small goodness becomes great goodness, and the accumulation of small merits becomes great merit. In particular, by paying attention to the things around us, we can perceive the world and the past, see the truth from the ordinary, and show true love in the subtleties.
The second sentence is: "Gather armpits into a fur, accumulate goodness into a tower, do a good deed a day, and achieve a thousand achievements." This sentence should be used to repair the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda of Heaven and Earth, that is, to restore the second layer of the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda of Heaven and Earth through the accumulation of good deeds.
The so-called "material of the corridor temple is not the branch of a tree, and the white fur is not the skin of a fox." "You can't build a temple with a piece of wood, and you can't make a fur from a fox. The fur under the fox's armpits is small, but when it gathers and accumulates a lot, it can be made into a leather coat. In the same way, the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda of Heaven and Earth is formed by the convergence of the qi of merit, and it is necessary to increase merit by continuously accumulating good deeds. According to Li Xuan's understanding, if you want to restore the second layer of the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda of Heaven and Earth, you should insist on doing good deeds every day. When there are more than a thousand good deeds, the second layer of the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda of this heaven and earth will be almost repaired.
Righteousness is the supreme and rigid qi that fills the heavens and the earth, and it is the foundation of merit. One life is two, two is three, and three is everything. Righteousness gives birth to merit, and merit gives birth to all things. In other words, the righteousness of this heaven and earth is the foundation of practicing the Xuanhuang merit formula. The reason why the first layer of the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda of Heaven and Earth is a metallic exercise is because the golden nature is upright and strong, which can make people upright, pursue the right path in the world, and finally cultivate the road of success.
Regarding the righteousness of heaven and earth, especially ancient texts, Li Xuan does not understand much. However, Mr. Zhao's level of ancient literature is very high. In order to understand these tricks, Li Xuan made another trip to Mr. Zhao's house.
Teacher Zhao was very happy when he saw Li Xuan coming. For Li Xuan's consultation on ancient texts, it was carefully taught.
"Righteousness is the foundation, and virtue is the foundation. It is to take the purity of thought as the foundation of life, and the improvement of self-cultivation as the starting point of doing things.
That is to say, if you take the lead in taking the right path, who would dare not take the right path?
"His body is not ordered, and his body is not right, although he does not obey orders." If the self is well-behaved, even if it does not issue orders, the people will carry it out, and if they are not upright, even if they issue orders, the people will not obey them.
Li Xuan listened to it for a long time, and felt that these words seemed to be more useful to officials, he was still a student, and there were still many difficulties in cultivation.
In the end, Mr. Zhao talked about his happiness, and opened his mouth to recite an ancient poem:
Heaven and earth have righteousness, and miscellaneous manifolds. The lower part is the river mountain, and the upper part is the sun star.
Yu people say Haoran, full of gloom. The royal road is clear, containing and Tuming Court.
When the poor festival is seen, one by one. In Qi Tai Shi Jian, in Jin Dong Fox Pen.
In Qin Zhang Liangshi, in the Han Su Wu Festival. For General Yan's head, for Ji's blood.
For Zhang Suiyang's teeth, for Yan Changshan's tongue. Or for the Liaodong hat, clear the ice and snow.
Or for the teacher's table, the ghosts and gods weep strongly. Or to cross the river, generously swallow the hu.
Or for the fight of the thief, the reverse vertical head is broken. It is majestic and majestic.
When it runs through the sun and the moon, life and death are sufficient. The earth is based on it, and the heavenly pillar is respected.
The three outlines are really life, and morality is the root. It is not effective to give Yang Jiu, and it is really ineffective.
Chu prisoners were crowned, and the car was sent to the poor north. The woks are as sweet as gluttony, and they can't get it.
The hell house is full of ghost fires, and the spring courtyard is closed and dark. Cow Ji has the same soap, and chickens perch on phoenix food.
Once covered with fog and dew, it was divided into barren ditches. In this way, no matter how cold and hot it is, it is easy to find its own.
Sigh and frustrate, for my peace and happiness. How can he be skillful, yin and yang cannot be thieves.
Looking up at the clouds. I am sad, and the sky is very strong.
The philosopher's day is far away, and the punishment is in the past. The wind eaves show books and read, and the ancient road shines in color.
After chanting the ancient poem, Mr. Zhao burst into tears. He said to Li Xuan, "My surname Zhao is not simple, my ancestors were emperors in the Song Dynasty of Huaxia and once ruled Huaxia for hundreds of years. Later, due to foreign invasions, the country was destroyed. ”
Li Xuan didn't think so in his heart. "What is the emperor, my family's ancestor is Taishang Laojun, that is a saint! much more powerful than your emperor!" However, he saw Mr. Zhao's self-absorbed appearance, and he didn't dare to say this.
Teacher Zhao said to Li Xuan again: At that time, there was a big official named Wenshan, who swore to defend their Zhao family. After being captured, he remained steadfast and unyielding. In prison, he realized the words of the sage Mencius, "I am good at raising my heroic qi", and wrote this "Song of Righteousness". Later, he would rather die than surrender, but he was beheaded by a foreigner.
This righteousness is a kind of heroic spirit and upright integrity, which is difficult to describe clearly. If you roughly put it around, first of all, it is filled between heaven and earth, a very vast and strong qi. Second, this qi is formed by the accumulation of justice and morality, and conversely, if there is no justice and morality stored in it, it will fade and become powerless. This kind of qi is a condensation of justice and morality that arises from people themselves, and cannot be obtained by hypocrisy or hanging up the signboard of justice and morality.
Righteousness is everywhere, and the greatest reward in life is to sit firmly, because no matter whether you are rich or poor, you can look up to heaven and earth all your life! If you become a traitor and do not follow the right path, you will eventually fall into the abyss of all evils and ruin your reputation. To be a man, we must talk about righteousness, righteousness, and honesty. Open-mindedness can cultivate righteousness. Indifferent and far-reaching, self-cultivation can swing righteousness. Non-favoritism can establish righteousness. Be strict with oneself and emphasize righteousness, cultivate righteousness with kindness and kindness, and be open-minded to cultivate righteousness.
Mr. Zhao also said that Wenshan also wrote a poem called "Crossing the Zero Ding Yang", which was written when he was defeated and captured, escorted to the ship, and crossed the zero Ding Yang in the second year. He was then escorted to Yashan, where foreign generals forced him to write letters to recruit his generals. Wenshan did not obey and showed this poem to Mingzhi.
"Once the hardships have been encountered, there are few stars around. The mountains and rivers are broken and the wind is fluttering, and the life experience is ups and downs. The panicked beachhead said panic, and the zero ding sighed in the ocean. Who has not died in life since ancient times? ”
Teacher Zhao is still addicted to poetry, so he chanted another song.
He also said that in this poem, Wen Shan expresses his impassioned patriotic enthusiasm and the high wind and brightness that regards death as home, as well as the outlook on life of sacrificing one's life for righteousness, which is a noble expression of the traditional virtues of our Chinese nation. Speaking of this, Teacher Zhao looked up to the sky and sighed, "Our ancestors of the Zhao family owe too much to the Wen family! If you have achievements in the future, you must help the people surnamed Wen, they are all loyal ministers!"
When Teacher Zhao chanted these two poems, Li Xuan felt that his exercises actually ran spontaneously with the syllables of these two poems, and it was much smoother. "It turns out that cultivating the exercises also needs a corresponding artistic conception!" Li Xuan found another shortcut to cultivate the Xuanhuang merit technique.
After testing the treasure hunting and storage functions of the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda on the mountain, and figuring out the first layer of the Xuanhuang Merit Recipe at Teacher Zhao's house, Li Xuan was still very satisfied.
Although it is more troublesome to cultivate the Xuanhuang merit formula, if you cultivate step by step, I don't know if you have to cultivate until the year of the monkey. And although it is relatively fast to cultivate by gaining opportunities, there are many things to do. Fortunately, Li Xuan's temperament is not too anxious, and he also understands the truth that "you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry", so you can only take one step at a time.
For reading ancient poems to speed up the operation of the exercises, Li Xuan gradually mastered the trick. Since then, such a situation has appeared in Guyu Village. Every morning, people would see Li Xuan shaking his head and reciting ancient poems under the big tree at the entrance of the village. recited "Song of Righteousness" and "Crossing the Zero Ding Yang".
Li Xuan's cousin and faithful follower Song Zhong sometimes recited these two ancient poems with Li Xuan. However, when he read it, he couldn't find that feeling, and he was humming there, and ordinary people couldn't understand what he was muttering.
Many people in the village saw them reciting ancient poems, so they used the two of them to educate their children, "You must learn from Li Xuan and Song Zhong, you see how much people love to learn, and they recite ancient poems there every morning." ”
How did they know that Li Xuan was cultivating the Xuanhuang merit technique. And Song Zhong is what the boss does, he will follow. As for whether it will work, only God knows.
