Chapter 20 The Road to Simplicity, Mozi Spring and Autumn
Although he grew up in the Taohuashan Temple of the Southern Dynasty and was influenced by Buddhism, it is rare to see Taoist talismans, but on the way back to the north, Su Hanshan also learned some Taoist cultivation methods from the archbishop of Daomen, who escorted the convoy.
To put it simply, whether it is the Heaven Repair Sect or the Heaven Interception Sect, in addition to attracting Xinghui into the body to improve their cultivation, Dao disciples spend more time cultivating Dao talismans.
There are four kinds of Dao charms in different ways of presentation, and there are many functions.
And in the Wenyin Spell Fight, the runes are the foundation of the entry, a total of a thousand wholes. In other words, the countless talismans of the Dao Gate and even the mystical formations are all combined on the basis of this thousand characters.
It's like recognizing words and then forming sentences.
When a Taoist is able to read a thousand characters and draw them in one stroke, then he has the ability to truly engrave runes.
This is also the reason why the head of the Heaven Replenishing Heaven Sect asked Su Hanshan to practice the thousand characters.
"It's just, isn't it too difficult to get started?"
An hour later, before I knew it, the paper basket was piled up. Su Hanshan, who was exhausted and tired, drank tea and rested. Looking at the thousand-character gift given by the bookcase teacher in front of him, I couldn't help but think.
From the Warring States Period to the Spring and Autumn Period, the inheritance of the Daomen has not lasted for a hundred years?
After all, the simplicity of the road is the truth. If this thousand-character text is based on the rate of one character per day, shouldn't it be considered to have reached the threshold until three years later? It is too unreasonable and impersonal.
Su Hanshan glanced at the maid Zhishu and asked, "Sister, can you understand the talisman?"
Knowledgeable and intelligent.
She saw that the Nine Emperor Princes were in a hurry, so she persuaded softly: "Although Zhishu is not a disciple of the Dao Sect, he also knows that the introductory cultivation method taken by those Dao Tong disciples in the Tianfu Mountain outside the city is indeed this thousand characters. ”
Su Hanshan, who thought that the teacher deliberately gave himself a problem and did not take the ordinary road, smiled: "I think I am too anxious, and the road still has to be done step by step to be steady." ”
Zhishu said: "With His Highness's understanding, I don't think I need to wait for three years. ”
Su Hanshan, who was teased by the maid, was not angry, and suddenly remembered the old enemy arranged by fate, and said to himself: "I don't know how long it took Feng Qiwu to cultivate these thousand characters." ”
Zhishu, who has received special training with his sisters since he was a child, has heard about the earth-shattering incident of the Fengqi Wudao Fu a few years ago: "It is said that it only took three months. ”
Su Hanshan was slightly surprised when he heard this.
Although he knew that Feng Qiwu's talent was extraordinary, he didn't expect that he would be so demonic. It took three months to complete the 1,000-character primer, which is more than 10 times faster than one character a day.
Su Hanshan, who was surprised, listened to the maid Zhishu and added: "It is rumored in Tiandu that it took 29 days for Feng Qiwu to paint the first talisman, 28 days for the second talisman, and 27 days for the third talisman. Then, for the next seven days, he worked around the clock to depict all the remaining 9,997 runes. After the runes were completed, the countless runes in the heavenly capital actually failed in an instant, as terrible as being blinded. Since then, the name of Fengqiwu has spread all over the rivers and lakes, and everyone knows it. ”
Su Hanshan's expression changed from surprise to shock.
Then something suddenly came to mind, and he flipped through the thousand characters.
Forming 9,997 runes in one go, doesn't it mean that Feng Qiwu saw commonalities in the first three runes that ordinary people can't see? If he didn't grasp a certain law, how could he be able to shake the heavens?
The ancient language gives birth to two, two to three, and three to all things.
Since Feng Qiwu can give birth to all things in three ways, he can give birth to all things in two. In other words, if we can truly understand what a character is, the so-called thousand characters are only one character in the final analysis!
Is this the truth of simplicity?
As if discovering a new continent, Su Hanshan adjusted his thoughts, and his gaze was no longer limited to whether the first rune depicted perfection.
He turned the first page very decisively, roughly memorized the cumbersome strokes of the second rune, and the Nine Emperor Princes, who were known to be unforgettable, immersed themselves in it again and sketched it.
......
In the afternoon, the sky cleared.
The snow in the plum garden was not completely cleared, according to the meaning of the chief manager Zhiqin, the servants and miscellaneous servants in the house just cleared the path between the various rooms, so that the eaves and the snow of the plum forest would melt away on their own to have a winter mood.
Su Hanshan, who had memorized more than a dozen rune strokes one after another, knew that Zhang Chi was in a hurry, and he was in a hurry to practice, so he didn't sink into the fire and didn't think about it.
Besides, although diligence is indispensable in cultivating this kind of thing, it also depends on talent.
Otherwise, how could Feng Qiwu become thousands of Fu in March?
Of course, it's not that Su Hanshan is lazy.
Outside the city of Gusu Taohuashan Temple fifteen years of Buddhism and Zen, the Taixuan Sutra practiced perfectly, the word lazy never existed in his outlook on life. Moreover, the father ordered Wei Mink Temple to come to the house, and the Nine Emperor Sons, who are the owners of the plum garden, have no courtesy.
Outside the door, Wei Qiansui, who was full of white hair and holding snow silver dust, returned to the main hall with the maid Zhishu. Seeing that the crown prince Li Tianxia and Huang Mei's seniors were curious about the long things wrapped in coarse cloth, Su Hanshan took the initiative to untie them and take a look.
Inside the shroud was a long, dark red box.
There are no carvings, and it is a very ordinary long box.
Su Hanshan glanced at Huang Mei's senior, and when he saw the rare look of excitement and surprise in the other party's eyes, he became more and more curious about the long box given by his father.
I thought to myself, what could it be that could make Huangmei's predecessors like this?
Holding his breath, Su Hanshan opened the box, and there was a sword lying quietly inside. Before he could take a closer look, the old man Huangmei took out the long sword that emanated from the quaint aura.
Just looking at the ancient and smooth scabbard and black hilt, Li Tianxia, who felt that the smoke and rain in his hand had been completely lost, muttered: "This is ......"
The old man of Huangmei, who suddenly felt a slight coolness in his palm, showed his essence, drew his sword in his right hand, the sword came out of the three-point sheath, and nodded imperceptibly, as if he had determined the origin of this sword, and completely pulled out the three feet and seven inches of Qingfeng.
It was a sword with a body as black as ink, without blades and blades, like a sword with a slender iron ruler. The chill is forested, and the ancient meaning is deeply hidden, giving people a feeling of impenetration.
Su Hanshan didn't know much about swords, and when he saw this sword for the first time, he said casually: "This sword hasn't been released yet?"
The old man Huangmei stroked his beard and said, "It is indeed an unfinished sword. ”
Li Tianxia hesitated: "Is it Mozi Chunqiu?"
The old man Huangmei looked at the prince of the Southern Dynasty in surprise: "It seems that you know a lot." ”
Su Hanshan couldn't understand this dumb riddle and asked, "Is Mozi Chunqiu the name of this sword?"
Li Tianxia nodded.
The old man Huangmei said with emotion: "The advent of Mozi is the beginning of spring and autumn. This sword came from the hand of Mozi, a sword-casting master of the Lu State during the Warring States Period, and it was also the last sword cast in his life. On the day this sword was released, it was also the time when the iron hooves of Xishu kicked open the gate of the Lu country. Before the swordsmith Mozi could name the sword, Kaifeng died in the chaos, and then the sword spread around the rivers and lakes, and its whereabouts have been unknown. ”
"Because after the fall of the Lu State, the world really began to divide into five parts, the war stopped, and the Spring and Autumn Sixty Years of peace were ushered in. Therefore, in the mouth of the Jianghu sword cultivators, this nameless sword was given a name, Mozi Chunqiu. ”
