Chapter 941: Dao Technique
I don't know how long it took, the clouds dissipated, the dust settled, Du Fangxi fixed his eyes, the ivory bed fell to a hillside, the mountains and fields in Siwangli were clear, the forest was gloomy, a bright moon shone in the sky, the moonlight was faint and faint, and there was a taste of loneliness and cold.

"Chinzhi—"
Du Fang woke up and turned around, and hurriedly went to see Ming Qin in his arms. I saw him frowning, opened his eyes in a daze, and saw Du Fangxi stunned, "Sister Fangxi, where is this?"
Mingqin was startled when he saw the scene around him, and he fell asleep for most of the time.
Du Fang didn't expect Ming Qin to suddenly wake up, and he was surprised and happy, "Qin Zhi, do you feel uncomfortable?"
In fact, Ming Qin's two ritual qi originally had a healing effect, his consciousness was awake most of the time, and the closure of the soul was also a kind of self-protection, but Tang Yu's introduction of ghost qi brought him a lot of trouble, so that Ming Qin's only spiritual sense was suppressed, and it caused the imbalance of yin and yang The soul was translocated, and he couldn't wake up.
Although Tang Yu and Duanmu Yi's true yuan is not very pure, it also allows the two yi qi to be replenished somewhat, and it is only a matter of time before it recovers.
Ming Qin had some vague impressions of the scene in the Xiao family, like a dream, but he couldn't remember it all after waking up.
Du Fangxi lay on Ming Qin's body with half of her body, her flesh and bones were even, her skin was like clotted fat, Ming Qin couldn't help but feel hot in her heart, reached out and pressed her waist and hips, and said with a fluctuating heart: "Sister Fang Xi, you are so fragrant?"
Du Fangxi's face flushed, and she argued: "Nonsense, I have never used spices, where does the aroma come from." ”
"No way. ”
Ming Qin leaned over to Du Fangxi's chest and sniffed, babbling indistinctly: "It's really fragrant." ”
Du Fangxi looked slightly ashamed, pushed Ming Qin, and said lightly: "I see that you are really fine, why don't you hurry up and find a way back." ”
Ming Qin laughed, sat up, and said in surprise: "Sister Fang Xi, why did you bring me here, and there is a big bed, is it used to look at the stars?"
"Stop talking nonsense. ”
Du Fang was suspicious that the black demon fox had not gone far, and did not dare to relax his vigilance, "We let the monster take it, but you have to be careful." ”
"Youkai?
After Ming Qin came to the fairy world, he had hardly seen purebred monsters, and at most they were descendants of some demon clans.
With the development of the immortal civilization, the ancient clan marked by body refining collapsed, and the four spirits and dragon clans were all major sects of body refining, and the decline was even worse. On the contrary, some monsters teach human beings and advocate the method of refining qi, so there is a saying that the fruit is the first adult. It can also be said to be the humanization of youkai.
Natural selection, survival of the fittest. Most of the youkai who couldn't adapt to the new situation were eliminated. Many descendants of the demon clan are no different from humans, and they don't even know that they have demon blood.
Inferred, in fact, human beings are also a branch of the demon race, but human beings were the first to be supported and civilized by the gods, and they became a big race, and the ten thousand races fought a war, defeated the demon clan and the dragon clan, and became the lord of the Three Realms, and had their own right to speak, that is, history.
Some scholars are imbued with the Taixi ethos and like to criticize the ancient history of Zhongxia for not being objective enough. I don't know that although human beings have two functions, reason also has its emotional basis.
Emotionally speaking, the more innocuous it is, the easier it is to be objective, and it is easy to have a neutral point of view when standing in the away position, but the reality is often biased, not in-depth and comprehensive enough. And the more in-depth the observation, the easier it is to mix personal feelings and likes and dislikes.
Of course, human beings can also use reason to suppress feelings, or have a position that transcends human beings, such as Lao Tzu's Heavenly Dao. However, from the perspective of heaven, all the rise and fall of personnel are meaningless, and they lose the value of narrative. There is no ancient history in the country of poison, which may be because Buddhism is too prosperous.
The Tessie history books are prevalent in the chronicle style, which is just a genre in the middle of summer. First, the Taixi countries lack rich historical materials, and secondly, the melons and beans are divided, and they do not belong to each other, and many times they are describing the history of other countries, which is not about the pain and itch, and is naturally easy to be objective.
The history books of the Middle Summer are very different, since Confucius wrote the Spring and Autumn Period, between the two hundred and forty-two years of right and wrong, there is a solemn concept of right and wrong in addition to the record of historical events. Moreover, this kind of historical method based on facts is not unique to Confucius, Dong Hu's record of Zhao Dun's killing of the monarch can also be said to be inconsistent with the facts, but it is the most appropriate.
Just like the history books do not record the killing of people with knives, but the recording of people killing people, this is a concept of humanity.
From the perspective of immortals, Lao Tzu is the proud disciple of the Taiyuan Virgin, one of the Liuhe Divine Venerables, and his heavenly vision is nothing more than the concept of the gods.
Therefore, human beings will always have their own positions and emotional tendencies when recounting history, and the so-called objectivity is futile, and some people regard objectivity as truth, just like Zhao piercing the murder of the monarch and killing people with a knife, and it is not true to describe it truthfully.
Human behavior is inseparable from the concepts of right and wrong, interests, kinship, and snobbery, and everyone has their own subjectivity, so how can the entire history of mankind be objective?
So a good history can be based on the notion of human right and wrong. When studying history, we can also deduce from the concept of right and wrong of humanity, so that we can not only obtain the truth of history, but also observe whether the attitude of historians in writing history is fair.
At the beginning, the four spirits also had a high culture, and although the dragon clan mixed one and four spirits, it seemed that the culture was worse. However, the four spirits and the dragon clan do not seem to have historical records, and they are not as complete as the historical books of human beings.
Although there are some stories about the demon clan, almost all of them are commented on by human concepts. Like "Journey to the West" and "The Legend of the White Snake", if the demon clan is allowed to comment on it themselves, maybe Sun Wukong will not have a high reputation.
Of course, after the defeat of the demon clan, he learned from the pain and realized the importance of culture. If there is no culture, there is no right to speak, so he also invented writing, and even after the invasion of the Central Plains, he tried to demonize Huang Yanshixuan. Tear his clothes, imprison his words, confuse the public, and use the concept of the demon clan to spread many novels and commentaries.
There are some demon masters who tout the barbaric atmosphere of the demon clan and the dragon clan, and the shallow scholars are swept by the wind, which is really pitiful and lamentable.
The demon race is humanizing, but the human race is demonizing, and it is a human or a demon that has long been unable to distinguish in bloodline and appearance.
The fairy world pays attention to the equality of all beings, and treats demons and monsters as benevolence, but there are hundreds of heavens and other countries, and the cultural origins are different, and human concepts are often restricted by the country, nation, culture, and Taoism, and humanity is always an unattainable ideal.
Humanity is fundamental to humanity's foothold in the Three Realms, and it is also the supreme interest of mankind. However, rulers are often selfish, and their ruling interests are fundamentally contradictory to humane right and wrong, and at the same time they are limited in coincidence. This is also the reason why Chen Ziang's revenge proposal contradicts itself.
If a person or an organization is above all peoples, it will inevitably seek its own welfare, exploit and harm people, which is contrary to human rights and wrong. But the ruler must maintain good order, and this must be humane.

Du Fangxi briefly said that Tang Yu used séance to heal Ming Qin.
Mingqin was in a coma before, although his consciousness was not completely extinguished, and he couldn't remember much clearly.
"So it was the possessed demon spirit invited by Tang Yu who took us here?"
"That's right. ”
Du Fangxi also felt that this was a bit incredible, but she was a cultivator, her vision and knowledge were far better than ordinary people, and she had seen a lot of strange things.
"What is the origin of this Tang Yu, and why did you arrest us here?"
Ming Qin had seen Tang Yu and Duanmu Yiren as early as Guiyizhuang, although Tang Yu was a cultivator, her cultivation should not be much stronger than Qin Suhui and Du Fangxi, and He Dong, who couldn't stop the use of fine stones, didn't take her to heart. Unexpectedly, she knew witchcraft, and the magic power she showed this time was far beyond the reach of Du and Qin.
Witchcraft has its own mystical heritage that is unknown to outsiders. Although there are a lot of swaggers and deceptions, it is not excluded that there are real learning.
The Yin-Yang family was once one of the ten schools of the Nine Streams, and was later absorbed by Confucianism and Taoism. In addition, the immortal magic has become a Taoism that fights against Buddhism.
The origin of witchcraft is more profound, originating from the ancient corpse cultivation method, which was extremely popular in Yin Shang, and later Fengming Qishan, King Wu cut down, Zhou Gong system of ceremonial music, the establishment of ritual system, and the emerging teacher Confucianism gradually replaced the position of witchcraft.
Although the witchcraft has lost political momentum, the spread among the people has not been broken.
Taoism also has mountains, medicine, life, physiognomy, divination, and all kinds of techniques. These spells are all miraculous, have deep origins, and have always been passed down mysteriously and are not known to everyone. Although Confucius was silent, there were many Han Confucians who talked about the unity of heaven and man, and the five elements of yin and yang.
These techniques do have their value, but because of the mysterious relationship of inheritance, many of them have been lost, and Taoism is very talented, and it is not easy to produce talents.
Many of the skills of Zhongxia vary from person to person, and although medical and martial arts are close to daily use, they are somewhat mysterious.
The reason why these methods are mysterious is that they are mixed with many unknowable elements. For example, the meridians, acupuncture points, internal family of martial arts, and qi refining in traditional Chinese medicine cannot be seen or heard, and many times people suspect that they are jokes made by the ancients.
Although it is said that 'there is no first in literature, there is no second in martial arts', there are some similarities between literature and martial arts in cultivation, there are paradigms in literature, and there are routines in martial arts, but Zhongxia has always had a tradition of emphasizing literature and ignoring martial arts.
In fact, the grandmaster-level characters in the article are also rare, and there are only a few people in each generation. And in the article, talent is important, but it seems to be compensable. "The more bitter the wisdom, the clearer, the more the spirit is used, the more it comes out", there are many people with dull qualifications in the article, but the article is just something that can enhance wisdom, and the lack of talent is not only not a shortcoming, but sometimes it is very beneficial.
The heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skins, and empty their bodies. Smart people often don't work hard, hard work in literature is often more important than smart, not smart can be made up, not hard but there is no good way.
This is true for literature, and the same is true for martial arts. 'The fist does not leave the hand, the song does not leave the mouth', 'the winter practice Sanjiu, the summer practice Sanfu', martial arts are also the result of hard practice.
The fairy world is fine, but it is not beneficial to the mind, this is also a gain and a loss, don't say that martial arts and medical skills do not have transcendent outstanding figures, that is, there is no grandmaster in the article.
Since the Juqimen Bingzheng, the famous Four Great Daomen Jiangshan Gate, Heyue Sect, Jinghu Palace, and Canghai Pavilion have declined one after another, and Taoism has fallen into decline. Overseas Taoism is slightly better, and the Creation Gate, Shenxiu Palace, and Tianluo Hall all have a considerable foundation.
The decline of Taoism is not terrible, the universe rises and falls, and it is common for one to flourish and one to decline. What is terrible is the dispersion of people's hearts, Juqimen is a Taoist school that is not very prosperous, the characters are lackluster, and there are a lot of demons and monsters, so naturally they cannot lead the Taoist world to create something.
Moreover, the Juqi Gate was originally a branch of the Divine Light Sect, and it was the Golden Peak Master of the Shura Dao and the Master of the Dome that he admired, and he did not have Taoism himself. As a result, the people of Donghua lost their confidence in the Taoism that had been handed down in ancient times, and Taoism was something that needed to be submerged.
The role of Taoism is not to make short-term profits, so it is often necessary to 'do justice without seeking its own benefits, and knowing its ways without considering its merits', morality itself is the supreme public and great interest, and the utilitarian interests pursued by human beings are often some selfish interests, even harming others and benefiting themselves, and not avoiding interests.
Taoism has a method of opening the valley, which seems to be divine, but it also has its limits. Human beings are living creatures in the universe and must absorb energy in order to maintain their life functions. Although it is possible to reduce activities and reduce consumption, there must be a limit. No matter how clever the Taoist technique is, if you don't eat, you will be hungry, which is inevitable.
A gentleman is not poor, but sometimes he is poor. The mother's family is poor and the children are young, and in the face of practical life, many people are forced to give up the pursuit of Taoism. Ge Hong, the son of Baopu, claimed to have a golden pill, but because of his poor family, he was never able to refine it. Cultivation is a huge amount of money, and in the past, only emperors or wealthy families could invite Taoist priests to refine the golden pill.
Taoism doesn't have to be so expensive, but those who are poor and happy will naturally not be in a good situation. Yan Yuan can not violate benevolence in his heart for three months, and he is not exempt from eating and drinking, and lives in the alleys. This kind of life will inevitably have some damage to the physique, and Yan Yuan's early death may also have this factor.
When it comes to the situation in the fairy world, it is even more complicated, and cultivating the Tao has almost become an incomparably expensive matter. Although the utensils are exquisite, they are very valuable. Although there are many immortal dao inventions, it is difficult for the common people to enjoy the results of the lean dao.
All the skills in the fairy world have developed greatly, although they are not the same way as the Taoism of Zhongxia, but they are obvious to all and have a good reputation. Immortal treasures such as Lingxi Pei and Tianluo Mirror are almost indispensable to people, of course, this is a situation where the family situation allows. All kinds of empty and land vehicles are all kinds of flying and fast.
The biggest feature is the sophistication of medical skills, as it was said in ancient times, 'one hundred and twenty years of life, seventy years of ancient life'. The birth rate and death rate are not far apart, and the probability of healthy growth is very common, and there are many people who die in the middle of the road. The fairy world has really realized the extension of life, and it is no longer a dream to live to half a year old, and it is even more common at the age of seventy.
