14. The city gate caught fire and destroyed the pond fish
At the beginning of the Shen period, the first evening class of the disciple's residence began in the side hall. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
In addition to these teenagers brought by Ye Yuan, there were more than fifty children of different ages who came to listen to the class.
There were sixty or seventy people in all, each with a desk and a bench, and the huge side hall was stuffed to the brim.
Chu Wuyan sat in the middle of the side hall and a little back, with Chu Feng on his left and Chu Lian on his right. On the table of the three of them, pens, ink, paper, inkstones and other things are neatly arranged.
At the moment, the low chatter in the hall stopped, and a middle-aged Taoist in a gray and blue shirt walked in.
The man stood still in front of him and said: "The deity's name is Zhou Xun, he entered the Tao at the age of five, practiced for fifty-three years, and has reached the middle stage of the illusion. Today's first evening service was taught by the deity. ”
When these words fell, some children in the hall were moved. From his words, this man should be fifty-eight years old this year. But looking at his appearance closely, he always gives people a feeling of being thirty years old.
Zhou Xun started with the founding patriarch and inheritance of Tianji Pavilion, talked about the door rules again, and finally talked about the cultivation issues that everyone was most concerned about.
"To practice spiritually, we must first manifest our spiritual heart. What is the spiritual heart? What is the spiritual spirit derived from the Tao, and what the heart desires is called the spirit! However, all monks with spiritual bones can perceive spiritual power similar to their own attributes through meditation and breathing. After perceiving spiritual power, the monk's understanding of this spiritual power will evolve into their spiritual heart. The manifestation of the spiritual heart means the condensation of the spiritual heart and the beginning of spiritual cultivation. This is the meaning of seeing the microscopic world. ”
Whether they understood it or not, the children in the temple were all listening and memorizing. Chu Wuyan felt that Zhou Xun's explanation was much more detailed than Ye Yuan's.
But as he said, the spiritual heart is the monk's understanding and perception of spiritual power, so doesn't that mean that the spiritual heart can also be manipulated and predicted?
I also heard Zhou Xun say: "As the deity just said, what the heart desires is the spirit. You may feel that what you think in your heart will form a spiritual mind. This is a big mistake. It is important to know that the Tao is natural, and it is the most taboo to stick to one style. When feeling the spiritual heart, it is necessary to calm the mind and concentrate on it, and the spiritual platform is clear. If there are distracting thoughts in the heart, and the mind is not quiet, then the mind is uncertain, and if the mind is uncertain, the heart is not sincere. In this way, how can we condense the spiritual heart?"
Immediately afterwards, Zhou Xun began to talk about the posture of meditation and the rhythm of breathing and breathing, and demonstrated to the disciples in the hall.
Finally, he talked about the exercises: "There are nine layers in the micro realm, and the first three layers are the initial stage, at this time you can only perceive spiritual power and comprehend your own natal spiritual arts. The middle three layers are the middle stage, when you can learn some other spells. The last three layers are the late stage, and at this time, you can use low-level magic weapons.
There are three types of spiritual exercises: upper, middle and lower. But all the disciples of this sect can learn a book of inferior exercises. You need to redeem the Intermediate Exercises. As for the superior exercises, only the disciples who have passed them on can be taught from the master.
A good book of exercises can certainly make spiritual cultivation twice as effective with half the effort. But for disciples who have seen the micro realm, the quality of the exercises is not so important. For the path of cultivation, seeing the micro realm is the time to lay the foundation. And the things that lay the foundation are all the same. ”
After he said that, he flipped his wrist, took out a stack of yellowed books from the storage bag, and said, "This is the introductory mental method of this disciple, "The Secret of Longevity". Although it is only an inferior exercise, it is better to be in the middle and peaceful, and any disciple with spiritual attribute can cultivate. When you want to change the exercises in the future, you will not conflict with the exercises on the side. ”
Zhou Xuan handed out these exercises one by one, and continued: "This exercise book not only records the cultivation method, but also attaches some common knowledge of the cultivation realm. If you have any questions, you can also ask the instructor in class! Okay, you can take a look at the exercises in your hands! If you have any questions, you can ask them now. ”
Everyone responded yes one after another, opened the exercises in their hands, or looked at them with anticipation or excitement.
The same is true of Chu Wuyan. When he opened the book, the first page was not about the exercises, but about the common sense of the cultivation realm.
The cultivation realm is different from the mundane realm, so let's talk about this chronology first. Here is a 10,000-year unit, with an era number in front and a number of years in the back. For example, this year is the 350th anniversary of Taihui.
Then he talked about the auxiliary materials such as magic weapons, pills, spirit beasts, and formations used in the spiritual retreat. In fact, these things are not only needed spiritually, but also physically. It's just that physical cultivation needs to break through the realm of quenching the body before it can break through the innate and lead the spirit into the body.
Therefore, there is a saying in the cultivation realm that the six arts are cultivated. These six arts refer to the six cultivation skills of alchemy, refining, array, drawing, planting, and healing. Among them, medical skills do not refer to the diagnosis and prescription of medicine as in the mortal world, but to some spells that are specially used to heal injuries. Generally speaking, only monks of the water or wood types can practice this type of spell.
Alchemy and refining tools can generally only be practiced by monks with fire attribute spiritual hearts. It's not that other monks can't practice, it's just that they don't have real fire in their bodies, and the spiritual fire transformed by spiritual power can't be used for refining weapons or alchemy, so they have to find another kind of heaven and earth fire.
Drawing sigils is a skill that almost every monk knows, and the same is true for planting. The cost of these two skills is limited, and there are many monks who are engaged in them.
Turning backwards again, there is the general outline of the exercises. After the general outline, there are the first to third levels of the subtle state of mind. It seems that only after cultivating to the third level of the micro-seeing stage can one obtain the later exercises.
This exercise is very easy to understand. The general outline says: "In addition to the dantian, there are eighty-one spiritual points in the human body. After the spiritual acupoint is connected to the dantian, it becomes a meridian. However, ordinary people's spiritual acupoints are all forced to be blocked, and only a small amount of spiritual power is allowed to flow through, and the meridians formed are naturally narrow and unsmooth. And cultivation is a process of penetrating spiritual acupoints and broadening the meridians. There are five realms of spirituality, each realm is divided into nine layers, which correspond to nine spiritual caves. Five-nine through, can prove to become an immortal, ninety-nine through, can be promoted to God. ”
Seeing this, Chu Wuyan felt a little enlightened in his heart. The manifestation of the spiritual heart is a process that penetrates the dantian.
And after the dantian is penetrated, it is a process of continuous accumulation of spiritual power.
When the spiritual power accumulated in the dantian to a certain extent, it would rush into another nearby spiritual cave in large quantities. At this time, it is time to break through to the first level of the micro period.
He read the whole book and knew he was right. But I still don't understand whether others are like themselves and merge into a green rune in the dantian.
He had a feeling that this rune would do him a lot of good. After a few thoughts, he didn't mention it.
Occasionally, a new disciple in the main hall would ask a few questions, and Zhou Xun would answer them patiently.
Until someone asked, "Changzun, how can a new disciple earn spirit stones?"
Zhou Xun said: "In these three months, you don't need to earn spirit stones. With your cultivation, you won't be able to earn any spirit stones. After three months, you can go to the sect to take on missions, you can form a team to hunt demon beasts, or you can learn some cultivation skills. But during this time, it's important that you still cultivate well!"
The man said again, "However, aren't some pills that can increase your cultivation speed? If you want to buy pills, you need to have spirit stones first, right?"
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Xun's expression immediately became serious, and he said: "Although the pill is good, it is a foreign object after all, and there is erysipelas, so it should not be taken too early." Especially for disciples who are just beginning to see the micro-stage, at this time, taking pills to cultivate is equivalent to pulling out seedlings to help them grow. Remember, when you practice together, the most taboo is to be eager for quick success and quick profit, greedy for more and faster!"
The hearts of the people were in a state of flux, but after thinking about it, they would be divided into inner and outer sects or miscellaneous disciples. When the time comes, the cultivation will definitely be superior. Under this pressure, it is also a difficult choice whether to use pills or not.
Zhou Xun could see the entanglement in the eyes of these disciples, but he didn't say any more warnings.
On the road of cultivation, there are countless difficulties and obstacles, and there are countless temptations and dangers, if you don't even have this concentration, then you are doomed to not go far.
At this time, it was already the end of the Shen time, and Zhou Xun ended the evening class and let these new disciples go back to their residences.
Chu Wuyan and the three of them also packed their schoolbags and walked towards their residences together.
However, as soon as they walked out of the disciple's house, the three of them were stopped by a small-eyed male cultivator in green clothes.
"The boss has sent you three to ask questions, come with me!" said the male cultivator with a smile.
The blood on Chu Lian's face instantly receded, and she stammered, "You say...... What did you say...... What is the boss telling us?"
The male cultivator said impatiently: "Don't be long-winded, this was personally ordered by Xie Lang Changzun. As for what's going on, you'll know when you get to the boss!"
Chu Wuyan's heart jumped, and he said loudly: "I don't know what senior brother is called, where is he on duty?"
"What's the matter, I'm afraid that Senior Brother I won't be able to pass on the order falsely?" The small-eyed male cultivator narrowed his eyes and said angrily: "I am Chen Hao, the deacon of the outer gate of Tianshu Peak, and I can be regarded as a person with a name and surname. If you don't believe me, you might as well inquire about it! However, in this case, you will have to bear the charge of delaying the order!"
Chu Lian hurriedly stepped forward and sent a spirit stone obtained from Chu Yu to Chen Hao, and said in a mournful voice: "Senior Brother Chen misunderstood, we have a fellow villager named Chu Yu, who has just been accepted as a personal disciple by the head of the sect, but what happened to him?"
Chen Hao's eyes lit up, and he raised his hand to accept the spirit stone and said, "For the sake of knowing and respecting senior brother, it doesn't hurt for me to tell you." Xie Lang Changzun really ordered me to take you over because of Chu Yu's matter! I heard that the head of the sect is very angry now, you should be careful!"
"It turned out to be this matter!" Chu Lian relieved herself and smiled reluctantly: "When Brother Yu and the three of us went to the dining hall to eat, they drank Tu Su tea by mistake. Come to think of it, the boss wants to ask what happened. ”
Chu Wuyan's heart was not so relaxed, not only was it not easy, but it was very heavy.
There may be three culprits for Chu Yu's mistaken drinking of Tu Su tea: first, Xie Lang framed Chu Yu for the position of the next head, second, the three of them induced Chu Yu to drink Tu Su tea out of jealousy, and third, the people in the canteen deliberately or took the wrong spiritual tea.
Among them, Xie Lang's status is precious, and the canteen forces are complicated, and only the three of them are the most weak and can be bullied.
If they had to find a scapegoat, what could be more suitable than their three new disciples?
What's more, they all received Ye Yuan's favor, and Ye Yuan was at odds with Xie Lang. If Xie Lang wants to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, he may shoot them.
All this right and wrong will depend on Chu Yu's words.
However, will Chu Yu be on their side?
