Chapter 671: No Sadness, No Joy

Shen Heshang and Shi Qingge studied the same art, and they also used the 'Qiwu Sword Technique', and there was no special mystery. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Clever teachers are good at teaching students according to their aptitude, allowing students to give full play to their talents. There are all kinds of differences in temperament and interests, and if you don't understand this difference, it will be difficult for a disciple to stand out from the blue and surpass his predecessors.

Most of the disciples of the master are not masters, in the final analysis, the qualifications of the disciples are different, and whether the master is good at teaching is still a secondary issue.

The 'material' of teaching according to aptitude refers to the temperament endowment, not the content of the teaching. A set of sword techniques, a kind of body technique, if every disciple practices the same form, it is a complete failure. For example, when writing on the post, everyone goes to copy the characters of Wang Xizhi and Yan Zhenqing, and the writing is exactly the same, and they will never become a clever calligrapher.

The writing of Zhongxia has long been the same as the book, from the South China Sea to the North Sea, and the articles written can be read by those who are literate. But when you say it, you have a variety of dialects, and this is the result of the teachings of different teachers. In the past, the dialect of the teacher was very heavy, and he didn't know the official language, so the pronunciation he taught may not be correct, but the students did not have the ability to distinguish, and even if it was wrong, they had to imitate it as soon as possible, and the result was that the children of the wrong people were mistaken.

Of course, learning any skill starts with imitation, and if you stop at imitation for a lifetime, then you can only be inferior to one generation after another. Some teachers talk about family law and factions, and do not allow students to have different opinions. The formation of intertwined party members, the monopoly of interests, and the prohibition of others from getting involved, such despicable words and deeds are undoubtedly extremely damaging to the development of Taoism.

But the view of the portal has been around for a long time, and it is an aspect of the competition for survival, and even the sages cannot avoid it.

The 'Qiwu Sword Technique' of Biwu Palace was learned by Tiannan Shenni from the three islands of the Ten Continents. She changed it again, the sword style was atmospheric, smart and ingenious, and it was the most practiced sword technique by the disciples of Biwu Palace.

Legend has it that the southern bird is one of the five sacred birds, 'non-liquor springs do not drink, non-bamboo does not eat, non-sycamore does not inhabit'. Qiwu swordsmanship has the dexterity of the feather clan's magical powers, and the clothes and shadows are fluttering, like flying birds.

Shi Qingge has been a beginner for a long time, and his attainments in the 'Qiwu Sword Technique' are not comparable to Shen Hesheng. Her skills are profound, and her swinging of the long sword has the potential of lightning and thunder, and the light and flames are compelling.

Shen Hesheng was much more elegant and agile, and the tip of the sword had a stabbing sound, directly taking the key point of the Green Cloud Ghost Mother.

Outside kung fu hurts people with tendons, usually boils muscles and bones, and cultivates copper skin and iron bones. The inner family hurts people with strength, adopts the Taoist method of spitting and refining qi, climbs the Ping to cross the water, walks the drum and dips cotton, and the speed and strength can be compared with the fierce birds and beasts.

Immortal Dao cultivation goes further, can deduce the true qi out of the five elements of change, swallow the knife and spit fire, smash the stele and crack the stone, compared to the fight has the power of shaking the sky and the earth, but the greater the power is not necessarily the stronger the power, the bow and crossbow shells are extremely powerful weapons, the arrows are not longer than the sword, the cannonball is not heavier than the chariot, many times the fierce light and flame are the result of the power can not be controlled.

Lao Tzu said, 'Where the division is, thorns are born, and after the army, there will be a fierce year'. Of course, it is also a strategy of war to clear the wilderness, and more often than not, destroying the walls and damaging the crops is a helpless thing, and it is easy to send and difficult to collect, and 'the fire at the city gate will affect the fish in the pond', which is not people's subjective will.

The way of the immortal family's utensils is very precise, and the magic weapon made is extremely powerful, better than the guns and cannons ten million times, but it is a pity that the immortal family does not have strict control over this kind of magic weapon, once the sacrifice is released, even the earth star may be gone, when the Pangu God King opened the world, it took a lot of effort, and the pillar was between the heaven and the earth until the oil ran out, and the lamp dried up, and it was really hard to open up such a home in the vast universe.

Later, the four spirits attacked, the ancestral dragon conquered the sky, and the war extended beyond the earth star, the Taiyuan Virgin was heartbroken, and was deeply disgusted by the arrogance and ignorance of the four spirits, so she chose the relatively weak human race to be the master of the earth star, and the Eastern Emperor Taiyi was reincarnated and reborn, supporting the human race, opening the sky with a painting, and the beginning of humanity.

Human beings have always been known for their spiritual wisdom and benevolence, and have created all kinds of good Taoist religions. However, the fighting heart of human beings is the same as that of the four spirits, and although the physique is not as good as the four spirits, the delicacy of the magic weapon is still excessive. It is difficult to say whether it will repeat the mistakes of the four spirits in the future, and whether it will flourish or decline.

Most cultivators only know how to pursue masterful techniques and powerful power, and do not know how to control spiritual power. There is a danger of being enslaved by the magic weapon.

Shen Hesheng's practice of forgetful Zen Gong is the opposite, focusing on the condensation of spiritual power.

Most of the cultivation in the fairy world is the method of the day after tomorrow, focusing on complex and precise changes, and there are five elements of spiritual power and the power of gossip after the true qi of yin and yang.

Taoism also has an innate method, which does not seek anything outside and holds the purpose of doing nothing.

Forgetfulness is the highest state of Taoist practice. Love is the seven emotions, joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, evil, and desire.

The seven emotions are the source of human strength, and 'there is no reason to be rewarded with joy, and there is no anger to punish indiscriminately'. Wang Rong of the Jin Dynasty said, 'The saint forgets his feelings, and he is not in love, and the love is in my generation'.

Plants, trees, birds, and beasts cannot be said to be without feelings, but they are not as complex and rich as human beings. The vast majority of human behavior is governed by feelings.

For example, in the process of fighting, there are emotional activities. If you only want to kill and damage the enemy, the energy you use will obviously be very economical. On the contrary, if it is mixed with feelings of hatred or pity, the energy will be heavier or lighter.

Some people see the power of the seven emotions, and accumulate the seven emotions as true qi, not easily revealed, and only release them when fighting, like Jiang Lin's 'Zhaoyu Divine Skill', and the 'Bear Fury' of the Angry Bear Divine Monarch, all of which are such methods.

This is a line away from the Zen Gong of Forgetfulness, but the number of paths is completely different. The Divine Skill of Forgetting Love is the masterpiece of Tiannan Shenni's practice for half a lifetime, and the goal is the highest state of Taishang Forgetfulness.

There is an eightfold realm of self-forgetfulness, which requires the practitioner to gradually reach a state of neither joy nor anger, nor worry nor fear.

Shen Heshang and Shi Qingge both used the 'Qiwu Sword Technique', but their mental methods were very different. Shi Qingge practiced the 'Qingming Technique', which was the practice of Tiannan Shenni in his early years, and it was completely different from the path of Forgetful Zen Technique.

Li Shangyin's poem, 'The young phoenix is clear in the voice of the old phoenix'. 'Qingming Technique' has an up-and-coming, thriving momentum, and it is a thunderous wind with Shi Qingge's swordsmanship, which is sharp and compelling.

Taishang forgetfulness is a very high realm, Tiannan Shenni has practiced for many years, but also the forgetfulness of Zen Gong to the sixth realm, the seventh level of desirelessness is a big difficulty, Tiannan Shenni is in charge of Biwu Palace, there are countless disciples, want to have no desire, how easy it is to say.

Lao Tzu said, 'Loss of morality and then virtue, loss of virtue and then benevolence, loss of benevolence and then righteousness, righteousness and then courtesy.' The husband is the head of the faithful and the thin. ’

Lao Tzu does not like etiquette, saying that it is the product of faithfulness and chaos. But this is in contrast to moral righteousness.

Propriety is obviously still precious compared to faithfulness and disorder. The realm of forgetfulness cannot be achieved overnight. It is to forget the feelings of Zen Gong, which needs to be practiced step by step from morality, benevolence, righteousness and etiquette.

Confucius said, 'Self-denial and retribution'. He also said, 'Don't see, don't hear, don't speak, don't move.'" Lao Tzu said, 'Returning to life is said to be normal, knowing is often said to be clear, not knowing the usual, acting in vain'.

Confucius's retribution and Lao Tzu's repetition are different from human affairs and heavenly ways, but the attitude is still very consistent.

Lao Tzu said that Wu Wei, Confucius said that it was rude, and the attitude of Wu Wei was more transcendent, too forgetful, ruthless and naturally inaction. Confucius is a humane sage, 'know what it can't do', since you can't forget your feelings, you need to have a standard of behavior, so etiquette is under moral benevolence, the practice of retreating to the second, but also the way to moral benevolence.

There are no strict high and low levels of the seven emotions, and there are six desires, which refer to the various sensory needs of the eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind.

The second is love and evil, which is a kind of emotion and belongs to relatively complex emotions.

Joy, anger, sorrow, fear, this is a change in emotion, in fact, there are far more than seven kinds of human feelings, generally speaking, there are happy and unhappy, but sometimes feelings are often very complicated, such as crying with joy, not angry but laughing, etc., in fact, it is a kind of inhibition of emotion.

In a relatively relaxed environment, people's emotions are relatively peaceful, and joys, angers, sorrows, and joys are relatively normal. If the environment is harsh, the expression of emotions may endanger one's own safety. People will disguise themselves to suppress their feelings. Disguise is suppressed to a certain extent, and when feelings are touched, the first reaction may be the opposite emotion.

Crying with joy, the 'extreme' reveals the degree of inhibition. Laughing instead of being angry is a habitual disguise.

Tiannan Shenni divides the Zen Gong of Forgetfulness into eight realms, and naturally has a detailed observation of the seven emotions and six desires.

Although ordinary people can't be too forgetful, it is common for them to suppress or disguise their emotions, such as, 'not to be happy with things, not to be sad about themselves', and 'joy and anger are invisible'. Although there is no strict depth of the seven emotions, it is impossible to suppress all feelings at once when cultivating, and people's temperament endowment also has an impact on feelings, some people are more optimistic, and some people are prone to pessimism.

Although Tiannan Shenni taught Shen Heshang the Forgetfulness Zen Technique, the personalities of the two were very different, and Tiannan Shenni's cultivation method may not be suitable for Shen Hesheng.

The feelings of sadness and joy are also different, and it is generally believed that sadness is more contagious and lasting. Some scholars believe that Zhongxia was more fond of comedy, and Tessie had a tragic temperament.

The ancients often said, 'Unsatisfactory things are often eight or nine', perhaps the course of life is close to tragedy, birth, old age, sickness, death, there is no way to get rid of it. As a means of literature and art, it has become a way to adjust the spirit.

Excessive suppression of emotions is not necessarily a good thing, the ancients admired 'forbearance', 'small forbearance, and chaos and big schemes'. There are even books like "The Book of Forbearance" and "The Hundred Proverbs of Persuasion".

Forbearance is a kind of emotional inhibition, and Jiang Lin and Angry Bear's cultivation methods all belong to forbearance, 'the mouth of the people, more than the mouth of the people.' If the river collapses, there will be many wounds.'" Blocking the mouths of the common people and not allowing them to speak is nothing more than anger, 'forbearance' is self-restraint, and 'prevention' is external oppression.

Sometimes it is necessary to endure the calm and calm for a while. But patience alone is not a long-term solution. Self-restraint is prone to depression and perversion, not to mention external oppression, which is often a precursor to the collapse of an authoritarian government.

Confucianism talks about morality, benevolence, righteousness and propriety, which are all standards of behavior, benevolence and righteousness, self-denial and retribution, although it is also a kind of inhibition, but this is behavioral inhibition, not emotional inhibition.

Mencius said, 'The obedience of the seventy sons to Confucius is to be happy and sincere'. Only if you mentally agree with the concept of benevolence, morality, righteousness and propriety, and take the initiative to restrain your behavior, of course, there will be no problem of emotional inhibition.

Forbearance is to restrain behavior by suppressing emotions, and the appearance is the same but the reality is different, which often causes unimaginable consequences.

This is also where the Forgetful Zen Gong is superior to other Seven Emotions cultivation methods.

Shen Hesheng's swordsmanship is much more restrained than Shi Qingge, although her skills are not as good as Shi Qingge, her spiritual power is more condensed, this is like the difference between a spear and a feather arrow. The feather arrow is immediately triggered, straight to the point, without dragging the mud and water.

The Green Cloud Ghost Mother only has a Kunwu sword, she and Shi Qingge's sword spine are adhered to, and they don't let each other go, seeing Shen Hesheng's sword light flickering, the sound of strong air overflowing is endless, although there is no Shi Qingge's glorious power, the tip of the sword is empty, if there is substance, the invisible sword qi pierces her body protection qi and emits wisps of green smoke.

Green Cloud Ghost Mother Huo Ran was shocked to realize that she could drive the grass and trees to be yin and spirits, and the cliffs were full of qi barriers, and what she prevented was Shen Hesheng's elusive and silent fighting style.

The cultivators are really angry and powerful, but there is also Shen Hesheng's mysterious and ingenious way of playing, which is sudden and unguardable.

However, no matter how concealed her sword qi is, once it encounters the body protection qi, it will always change.

The Green Cloud Ghost Mother is a person in the ghost path, and her soul is not strong enough, and she is most afraid of being bruised by the sword qi. Shen Heshang waved his long sword, and one after another swords slashed into the air like a sickle, and the qi barrier around the body of the Green Cloud Ghost Mother was full of holes.

The Green Cloud Ghost Mother and Shi Qingge competed for internal strength, and they didn't dare to dodge at will, and stood still and let Shen Heshang be a target to fight, so they naturally suffered a big loss. Immediately, with a sharp sound, Kunwu's sword light was scorching, and a sharp buzz was released, and the green cloud ghost mother's black hair was flying, and she stabbed with her sword, forcing Shi Qingge to sweep across several zhang, and get out of Shen He's sword qi.

Shi Qingge was taken aback, the Green Cloud Ghost Mother's eyebrows condensed, and she was angry at the bullfight, not giving her a chance to dodge at all, the back cliff of the Ten Thousand Ghost Mountain was a hundred feet high, the mountain stone was freshly sharpened, the Green Cloud Ghost Mother absorbed the qi of Mude in the mountains, and was full of spiritual power, the two of them advanced and retreated, Shi Qingge was completely in a passive position, and she was about to be stabbed to death on the cliff by her sword.

Shen Hesheng was in a hurry, but her light body technique was much inferior to that of the Green Cloud Ghost Mother, although she could use the mountain arbor to step and breathe, she couldn't catch up with the momentum of the Green Cloud Ghost Mother at all. (To be continued.) )
