Chapter 68: Peace of mind

As the saying goes, look at the mountains and run dead horses. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Xuanling Mountain looked at the opposite side, as if he could reach out and touch it, but the distance was extremely far.

More than an hour later, Cao Xu and Yi Qing arrived at Xuanling Mountain opposite the Hanging Temple, and the two of them walked up the mountain while looking at the surrounding terrain.

Xuanling Mountain is very steep, although not big enough, but very high.

Cao Xu suddenly stopped, looked up at the sky, looked at the Hanging Temple opposite, and said, "It should be here." ”

Yiqing turned his head to look around, wanting to find something special, and behind him was a stone wall that went straight up and down, covered with moss.

There is nothing surprising about it except for the mountains and only the woods.

Cao Xu looked up at the stone wall, suddenly jumped up, stopped in the void above the stone wall, waved his sleeves, and suddenly the moss "fell", and the stone wall became smooth, and it was covered with dense small characters.

"Nirvana, withered and glorious Zen Sutra. Yiqing muttered.

Cao Xu glanced at it, and immediately burned these words into his mind, and then recited them sentence by sentence.

Quanzhenjiao pays attention to the "integration of three religions", and in the Huashan Library Pavilion, he also dabbled in Buddhist scriptures.

It is said that when Shakyamuni was destroyed, there were two trees in the east, west, north and south, and the two trees on each side were one prosperous and one withered, which was called "four withered and four prosperous".

According to the Buddhist scriptures, the Eastern Twin Tree means "constant and impermanence", the Southern Twin Tree means "happiness and no happiness", the Western Twin Tree means "self and non-self", and the Northern Twin Tree means "pure and impure".

The tree of prosperity and glory signifies the true state of nirvana: constant, happy, self, and pure, and the withered tree shows the state of the world: impermanence, no happiness, no self, and no purity.

The world-honored one's initiation of nirvana between these eight realms means that it is neither dry nor glorious, neither false nor empty.

In the Tianlong world, the Kurong Zen Gong practiced by the Kurong Zen Master of Dali Tianlong Temple originated here. Later, when Gu Mozhi saw it, he said, "There is impermanence, the two trees are withered, the north and the south, the west and the east, neither false nor empty!"

After Yiqing looked up and down, he frowned and shook his head, feeling confused in front of him, he could see every word on it, but when it was connected, he couldn't understand a word.

Cao Xu said with a smile: "To understand is to understand, not to understand is not to understand, this Buddhist scripture is very mysterious, and it cannot be forced." ”

Yiqing let out a "oh" and lowered his head in disappointment.

Cao Xu was very excited in his heart, following the "Tai Void Extreme Gong" obtained in his previous life, he finally got the second exercise that was expected to break through the innate realm.

This old monk guarding the Lei Yin Hall didn't know what the origin was, and he actually left such a high-end exercise.

Whether it is the Buddha statue in the Leiyin Hall of the Hanging Temple, or the Buddhist scriptures on the stone wall of Xuanling Mountain, it takes a certain level of spiritual cultivation to be able to perceive and have the qualifications for cultivation.

The way of nirvana, the way of withering glory.

The path of Nirvana was too profound, and Cao Xu couldn't understand it for a while. But the method of withering glory didn't bother him much.

"Let's go back. Cao Xu said.

"Senior Brother Lin, what should I do with this treasure scripture?" Yiqing asked.

Cao Xu smiled, looked at Yiqing, who looked nervous, and said, "Naturally, I went back and told Dingding Xian Shi Tai and asked her to send someone to deal with it." ”

"Thank you, Senior Brother Lin. Yiqing said happily.

After the two returned to the colorless nunnery, they told Dingxian Shitai about the matter, and Dingxian Shitai heard the news and immediately sent someone to investigate. Behind is the housework of the Hengshan faction, and Cao Xu is not easy to meddle at this stage.

After returning to the room, Cao Xu sat cross-legged on the bed and comprehended the method of withering glory in the Nirvana Kurong Zen Sutra.

"All things in heaven and earth rise and fall in moderation. Flowers have prosperity and decline, and trees have withered glory. ”

This "Nirvana Dry Glory Zen Sutra" is not so much an internal strength of the mind, but rather a meditation understanding, which has only a few sentences about the mantras such as breathing and breathing and qi walking Zhoutian, which is not detailed, focusing on the understanding, the state of mind is realized, and the exercises are self-contained. Therefore, the cultivation of this "Nirvana Dry Glory Zen Sutra" will not conflict with the practitioner's existing internal strength.

The basic method of withering glory is a set of exercises on how to completely hide one's qi and blood deep in the internal organs and acupoints, nourish the internal organs and bone marrow, and decay externally and become prosperous inside. Not only can you make your skin wrinkled and erect in a short period of time, and you look like an old man who is drooping and depleted of qi and blood, but also can make your qi and blood exposed, with a face like a crown of jade, full of red light, like a newborn baby.

Although this is only the basic kung fu in the "Nirvana Kurong Zen Sutra", it has already made Cao Xu happy. I deeply feel that this trip to Hengshan has been very rewarding.

On the bed, Cao Xu had already devoted himself to the comprehension of the law of withering glory, the yin and yang on his face were intertwined, the blue and red colors were changing and rising, and the withering glory qi machine appeared, and different visions were conjured, which was very weird.

At this time, Cao Xu had forgotten about everything, and the changes in his body became more and more obvious.

"Ahh ”

I don't know how long later, a terrible cry was heard in my ears, full of indescribable horror.

Cao Xu opened his eyes and looked at Yiqing who was sitting on the ground in fright, his face moved slightly.

"Did something happen?" Cao Xu asked, the voice sounded, hoarse and unpleasant, and even he was startled.

Cao Xu looked at his hands, and saw that the originally smooth and delicate palms were like dead wood and old branches at this time, the black and yellow skin was wrinkled, and the muscles seemed to have disappeared, leaving only a layer of skin wrapped in bones.

He previously comprehended the "Nirvana Kurong Sutra", and subconsciously practiced the whole body, urging the method of withering and glory to the extreme.

As soon as he thought of this, Cao Xu immediately changed the meaning of withering glory and transformed the withered phase.

Whoa, whoa!

Yiqing suddenly saw a strange scene!

The skin and bones on the bed actually swelled up between breaths, and the flesh and blood were abundant, and he immediately turned into a young man who was as rich as jade.

"Senior Brother Lin, what's going on?" Yi Qing asked tremblingly as he restrained the panic in his heart.

"This is the 'Nirvana Dry Glory Sutra', which hides the vitality deeply, shows the withered appearance, accumulates thick and thin, and finally pursues Nirvana into extinction and liberates the suffering of life and death. Cao Xu said with a smile.

"Senior Sister Yiqing, do you still want to learn this Zen skill?" Cao Xu then asked.

"I ....... Yi Qingbei bit her red lip lightly, hesitating in her heart, unable to make up her mind. Thinking of Cao Xu's terrifying appearance before, Yiqing really found it difficult to muster up courage.

"The flesh and skin are just appearances, why should you be obsessed with appearances. There was a gentle and majestic voice outside the door, but it was the head of the Hengshan faction, Dingxian Shitai, who had arrived.

"Thank you, Master, for your advice. Yiqing saluted to Master Dingxian, and then said to Cao Xu, "Please also ask Senior Brother Lin for advice." ”

Cao Xu took a step forward, a flash of light flashed in his eyes, and he pointed at the center of Yiqing's eyebrows.

Yiqing trembled and swayed, and the Dingxian Master looked at Yiqing too nervously, and it was inevitable that she felt some regret in her heart, just now she was bent on learning this profound Zen skill from Cao Xu's hands, but she forgot the danger contained in it.

The mystery of "Nirvana Kurong Zen Sutra" is beyond imagination, even if the Dingxian Master who has practiced Buddhism for decades has lost a normal heart because of this.

After a while, Yiqing opened his eyes, and his eyes were blank, but it was the reason for too much mental attrition.

Mrs. Dingxian didn't care about any rudeness at this time, and hurriedly took Yiqing to rest.

Cao Xu didn't care, and passed the "Nirvana Kurong Zen Sutra" to Yiqing, which can be regarded as understanding the cause and effect between himself and the Hengshan faction. lest they be constrained in the future.

Whether it's a cozy posture or a false feeling, you can just have peace of mind.
