Chapter 3 Ancient Books of Family Traditions
The night of the high city is not as bright as the lights of the big city, and it is as bright as day. For many people in the city, the night is not just the night, it is no longer the end of the day, the time to rest. It's the beginning of a day of partying, where men and women in the city go out at night, bars, KTVs, nightclubs and other entertainment venues. Perhaps it is the stress of the day that needs to be released, and the night is always the beginning of a depraved. On the contrary, the countryside has a bright starry sky, endless fields, and towering ancient trees, and there is more communication and warmth between people. Gaocheng is just a small county town, there is no city lights, there is no peace and quiet in the countryside, there is only a special taste, not enough for outsiders.
It's mid-December 2013 one night.
"Chihiro, Baixiang (Ren Chihiro's father), you come with me. Ren Qianxun's grandfather, Ren Shifu, was mysterious, and lowered his tone and came to Qianxun's father and son and said softly. Saying that, Ren Shifu walked to the bookshelf in the room, and Chihiro father and son followed closely. Ren Shifu lit a candle and twisted a book on the shelf, and suddenly the bookshelf moved, and inside was a secret room. The three of them walked in slowly. Ren Shifu placed the candle on the lampstand, and the faint candlelight illuminated the entire secret room, but it was a little dim.
Ren Qianxun looked around and found that there were bookshelves around the secret room, on which there were many unknown classics. And the rosewood table in the center has an ancient book covered with red silk cloth, which is indeed the family heirloom of the Ren family. There is a hanging portrait on the ancient book, the portrait of an old man with kind eyebrows, and the eyes are separated from it by the breathtaking light, yes, it is the light, you may ask how the painting has light? But this is the case, and it is precisely because of this that the painting is strange and extraordinary. In the lower right corner of the painting is written, Quasi-Ti Taoist, Bodhi.
"Chihiro, Baixiang, kneel down and worship your ancestors. Ren Shifu said in a deep voice. Ren Qianxun was stunned at first, his father Ren Baixiang tugged on Qianhiro's sleeve, Ren Qianxun hesitated slightly, but still knelt down and bowed three times and knocked nine times.
"Grandpa, what's going on?" Ren Qianxun asked puzzledly, "How did we become the descendants of the Quasi-Ti Dao, Bodhi, and still enshrine his portrait." ”
"Chihiro, these things were supposed to be told to you on your eighteenth birthday, but now that you have awakened, it's time to tell you!" Ren Shifu said solemnly, then paused, and continued. "The Ren clan is a descendant of the Bodhi Ancestor and the mortal woman Ren Cailian during the Great War of the Gods. Chihiro, what do you know about Bodhi Ancestor?"
"Bodhi Ancestor, also known as Zhun Ti Taoist, is the second master of Western Buddhism, his Taoist and Buddhist double cultivation, he has a good understanding of Eastern Taoism, and he knows the Buddhism of Western Buddhism well, and is one of the six heavenly saints of heaven and earth. Ren Qianxun talked eloquently, Ren Shifu, Ren Baixiang was quite surprised by this.
"Well, that's good, Chihiro, go on. "Ren Shifu said.
"Bodhi has eighteen hands, a six-zhang golden body of twenty-four songs, and he is also one of the six disciples of the Great Dao Sage Hongjun. Ren Qianxun was a little smug and said, "Grandpa, what you said is right, is what your grandson said?" ”
"That's a good point. Ren Shifu said with relief, his expression changed, and he asked rhetorically, "Do you believe in the things of immortals, Buddhas, ghosts, and gods?" Or do you believe that there are immortals in this world who move mountains and reclaim the sea, fly to the sky and escape to the earth, and live forever?"
"This ...... This one...... I. I ......" Ren Qianhiro was speechless, not knowing what to say.
"Don't you think that this is not in line with modern science? Ren Shifu smiled. "I'm right. ”
"Yes, grandpa, science has proved that man was not created by Nuwa, but evolved from an ape. The earth is round, not the mythical heaven is round, and there is no heavenly palace on the moon, Chang'e and Jade Rabbit. But ......"
"Science has brought a lot to human beings, and science has also brought a lot of convenience to human beings, but this does not mean that cultivators do not exist, nor does it mean that there are no immortals in this world. Ren Shifu said, "But science is a double-edged sword, bringing benefits and disadvantages. For example, the physical strength of modern people is far inferior to that of their predecessors. Today, with the popularization of science, human beings have not evolved, but have faintly degenerated. Science is just a crutch, without which humanity cannot walk. The purpose of civilization is to absorb the aura of heaven and earth, and to impose the creation of heaven and earth on oneself, to break the limits of the body, and to embark on the path of evolution. Chihiro, I can tell you clearly that there are indeed cultivators in this world, and your grandfather and I are a cultivator of the acquired five heavens. ”
"Is this true? Is there really a cultivator in this world?" Ren Qianxun muttered, stunned. After a moment, Ren Qianxun came back to his senses, his eyes became firm, and he remembered his motto again, the strong create rules, and the weak follow the rules. At this time, Ren Qianhiro clenched his fists tightly, and his green muscles burst out, "Since all this exists, then I, Ren Qianhiro, must become a strong man, become an immortal, become a saint, live with heaven and earth, and shine with the sun and the moon." ”
"Good grandson, ambitious, worthy of being the prophetic son of my family. Ren Shifu said with relief and appreciation, "Let me tell you about the hierarchy of cultivators. There are three great realms for cultivators in the human world, namely, the day after tomorrow, the congenital, and the golden pill. Every time there is a breakthrough in the great realm, the cultivator will be reborn and carry out a real life evolution, different realms are different life levels, people in the higher realm can easily kill hundreds or thousands of people in the lower realm, just like a person, even a child can easily crush a lot of ants, aren't we also god-like beings in the eyes of ants?" Ren Qianxun nodded lightly and agreed.
"The acquired realm is not the Nine Heavens, the cultivators of the Nine Heavens will become congenital powerhouses after breaking through, and the innate is divided into the early stage, the middle stage, the late stage, and the Great Perfection, after the Great Perfection is the condensation of the false pill, after the false pill is the real Jindan Road, the first step into immortality, it is mentioned in the ancient books that a golden pill swallows the belly, and since then the real person is extraordinary, so the Jindan strong person has also become a real person. As far as I know, there are no Jindan powerhouses on the real earth now, only three false Dan ancestors. Of course, it's not that they can't condense Jin Dan, but that Jin Dan is successful, and the clouds are gone. After becoming a Jindan, the Heavenly Dao will descend to ascend to the Heavenly Tribulation, and after the Heavenly Tribulation, you can ascend to the Spirit Realm, but you can't survive the ......."
"If you can't cross it, what will happen?" Ren Qianxun blurted out and asked.
"The ashes are gone, the soul is scattered, and there is no reincarnation. ”
"So cruel?"
"The path of cultivation is originally to go against the sky, so if you don't succeed, you will become benevolent. Ren Shifu sighed, and then asked rhetorically, "Chihiro, are you afraid?
Ren Shifu's words, word by word, hit Ren Qianxun's heart deeply, Ren Qianxun hesitated, but only for a moment, he became firm, and said loudly, "Although you die, you have no regrets." ”
"Okay, good !!" Ren Shifu was obviously touched by Chihiro's arrogance. Then he walked to the red sandalwood table, picked up the ancient book, and handed it to Ren Qianxun, "Then go, you are the son of prophecy, and the exercises on the ancient books can only be seen by you." ”
Ren Qianxun slowly picked up the ancient books, and the words on the ancient books that were covered by golden light were revealed, namely, the six zhang golden body, the big dream Zhou Tian and the Zhun Ti Heart Sutra. The traditional Chinese characters on it are densely packed with tens of thousands of words, recording the cultivation methods of the three stunts of the Bodhi Ancestor. Ren Qianxun looked at it and couldn't help but feel a beat in his heart.
