073 Seeing that the mountain is not a mountain, the first glimpse of the jade step cold (II)
I probably understand that this note was written by someone, it seems that the Mei family was in trouble at the sect conference, and he was worried about the future of the family. This person has a son, who is still young, and it is estimated that he has no offspring. What he meant was that if he had a grandson in the future, he should be named Umenoishi.
The note was not signed, and I don't know which predecessor left it. He mentioned the most recent sect conference, which seemed to be at least many years ago fifty-nine years ago. It turned out that this Umeno Stone was just a name at the time, and the real person had not been born at all, and even his Lao Tzu was still young. I'm a little puzzled: Did the person who wrote the note have any grandchildren later? If so, is it called Mei Yeshi? Of all the ivory plates, only this one is the only one with the word "Mei" that is not painted with cinnabar, is it possible that the Mei family has no descendants today? Otherwise, how could there be no one here?
When I saw this note, I remembered my name "Ishino" again. I once asked my parents why I was called Ishino, and my parents told me that they didn't give me this name, but that according to local customs, children would usually ask the eldest elder in the village to give them a name after birth, which means to ask for good fortune and longevity. My name was given by Grandpa Kim.
There was only one thing on the table like a candlestick, except for these ivory boards, and there was no candle at the top of the candlestick, nor a long needle with a candle, only a hemispherical shallow groove, on which was placed a small round ball that was not stone or jade. The ball was the size of a hemp kernel, and I took it in my hand and looked at it, but I couldn't see what it was. Is this ball on the candlestick, is it the legendary pearl of the night? No, the pearl of the night, it should be only at night, and then look at it when it gets dark.
There was nothing else in the house, and now I went out of the house and came to the back of the house. Behind the house was a small grove, and the arrangement of the trees in the forest seemed to be very regular, a kind of formation that I did not recognize. There is also a spring in the middle of the woods, and a small pool of water converges near the spring. The pool is crystal clear, and the spring will fill the pool without overflowing. I stood on the edge of the pond and looked around, and I saw a few red dots peeking out between the branches and leaves of a tree. After looking closely, it suddenly dawned on me that I knew where the Zhu Guo that Xiu Xiu gave me came from.
This small grove is full of the same kind of tree, but it's all vermilion trees! I counted no more, no less, exactly sixty. The fruit tree bears fruit once in 60 years, and only bears a maximum of 12 seeds at a time, and matures once a month. After the vermilion fruit is ripe, it will hang on the branches for a year, and if no one picks it, it will turn into dust. These are all things that Sister Ziying once told me.
It seems that the Mei family's construction of Jingwu Cave is innocent and has the merit of conquering heaven and earth! Of these 60 vermilion fruit trees, one of them has already set fruit and ripe, several of them are growing unripe fruits ranging from green to yellow, and there are two twelve-petal flowers with pure white and golden and red silk lines, and a few of them have not yet been released. It seems that every year there is a vermilion tree, and every month there is a vermilion fruit ripening here.
There are five vermilion fruits on the tree that hung red fruits, and the days are already red, and the last time I gave them to Zhuguo was exactly five months ago. When I saw Zhu Guo, I thought of three things: first, Xiu Xiu often comes here, Zhu Guo is from here back, I always thought that the place where it picked Zhu Guo was very far away, but I didn't expect it to be under the Dragon Tower. Secondly, the Mei family is probably no one here now, otherwise they would not have left such a precious Zhu Guo unattended, so that Xiuxiu would have taken it away.
Also, the last time the Wind Gentleman followed Xiu Xiu back to the classroom, he looked very embarrassed, with river mud on his shoes and trouser corners, and even water weeds and leaves stuck to his head. I laughed in my heart that he was being tricked. In retrospect, the Wind Gentleman must have followed him to the river. It seems that he was in the right place at that time, but at that time, the water of the Jushui River did not recede, and he did not have the Qingying Mirror in his hand, so he did not find this Jingwu Cave Heaven. Thinking of this, I have another doubt, if I don't have the Green Shadow Mirror, or if I have the Green Shadow Mirror, but I don't have the cultivation mana, I can't be here, and I can't come in. How did Xiu Xiu get in? Could it be that the Innate Rui Beast is indeed different from humans?
Jingwu Cave Heaven is not too small or too big in the mountains under the Dragon Tower, and I have basically seen all the places. Walking back to the center of the clearing from the Zhu Guo Forest, there was the only thing I hadn't studied, and that was a whole piece of bluestone carved out of a stone platform. This stone platform is surrounded by 12 carved totems of the 12 zodiac signs and inscriptions that I can't read, the stone platform is slightly wider at the bottom and narrower at the top, with a height of more than one meter and a full circle. The top is flat, and there is a shallow circular mark on it, which is slightly concave than the countertop.
I smiled when I saw this circular indentation, and I knew where the Qingming Mirror in my hand came from! I picked it up in the mud of the pond under the bridge of the Zhuangyuan Bridge, and it was there that I first encountered it. Since Xiu Xiu can steal the Zhu Guo here, he can also take the Qingying Mirror on this stone platform under the Zhuangyuan Bridge. The Qingying Mirror was originally placed in the groove of this stone platform, and I don't know when I let Xiu Xiu take it away, and I happened to pick it up under the Zhuangyuan Bridge.
I put the Qingying Mirror mirror face down into the stone trough, and the size and shape were exactly the same. As soon as I put the Qingying Mirror away, there were unexpected changes in the entire Jingwu Cave Heaven!
I saw that the clouds and the sky were open and the fog dispersed in an instant, and I stood in the wilderness by the Jushui River! In the distance, there were still river beaches and fields, and it seemed that this Jingwu cave sky was not blocked from everything around me. What is this feeling? This feeling is that I am standing in the belly of Longshan Mountain, this mountain has disappeared! Or it has become transparent and invisible! The disappearance does not stop there, only to see a circular pillar of colorful light coming out from the back of the Qingying Mirror, shooting straight into the sky, this pillar of light is spreading upwards and thicker and thicker, to the top, which is exactly the size of the base of the Dragon Tower.
Looking up, I saw the dragon tower standing suspended in the air. The stone platform where the Qingying Mirror is located is far away from the base of the Dragon Tower, and it looks like this pillar of light is supporting the Dragon Tower from the sky! The pagoda is also translated as floating temple, which is a Buddhist building introduced into Middle-earth and has many changes. The tower was the place where the bones of the monks were buried at the earliest, the most common was the relics tower, and later there was the tower of the scriptures. What I want to say is that in the Central Plains, where there are tall multi-storey ancient towers, there must be underground palaces under the base. Most of the items in the dungeon are treasures. Maybe there is an inconspicuous ancient pagoda somewhere in your hometown, and it may only be the lowest county-level cultural relics protection unit, but it is very likely that there are national treasure-level cultural relics buried in the underground palace under the base of the tower. I saw a lot of novels about archaeology and tomb robbing on the starting point Chinese website, but no one mentioned this. )
I am now standing on a plateau on the bank of the Jushui River, this highland is a spotted bamboo forest growing on one side, and a sparse vermilion fruit forest on the other side, there is a stone platform in the middle of the stone platform, and there are four bamboo forest houses around the stone platform. Looking through Zhu Guolin, you can see far away, and you can even see the Zhuangyuan Bridge outside the south gate of our school. In the distance, pedestrians and vehicles passed by from time to time on the road, but strangely enough, no one seemed to appear, and the mountain under the dragon tower suddenly disappeared, and a pillar of light supported a tower hanging in the air.
Looking at it, I suddenly understood that this was the strangeness of Jingwu Cave Heaven. You can't see this mountain in the cave, and with the Qingying Mirror, the person who puts it inside the stone platform can see everything outside. But you can't see it from the outside, and you can't see it from the outside, and from the outside, Longta Mountain is still a mountain.
This is really a good place! It is a cultivator's cave and blessed land, which is much stronger than the bridge cave at the Zhuangyuan Bridge. I've been worrying lately about finding a place to practice, and although the bridge hole of the Zhuangyuan Bridge is suitable for meditation, there is no way to practice the imperial weapon. In that place, the Qingying Mirror couldn't fly at all, and the light flashed wildly, and it was easy to be revealed. I didn't plan to keep this Jingwu Cave Heaven for myself, but judging by the situation, this is already a borderless land, even if I borrow it from the Mei family for the time being. It's a big deal, when the main owner appears, I'll return it to others. I abide by the rules of their Mei family and don't leak it to others anymore, it should be okay, right?
Looking at the roster on the ivory board, the last owner here should be Mei Ye Shi, I don't know if there is this Mei Ye Shi in the world. Since I also have a name called Umeno Stone, let's use the land for the time being. At this point, I have decided to use this Jingwu Cave Heaven as a place of trial for my future cultivation.
At this time, the sky had gradually darkened, and when you looked up, you could see the dragon tower hanging between the stars. Anyway, the afternoon class is gone, and the evening self-study is gone. I haven't forgotten what I'm here for, I'm here to find Xiuxiu, Xiuxiu, it's likely to haunt this place, I'll wait for it all night. When I saw that it was dark, I thought of the candlestick in the house. Are the stone beads on the candlestick lit? I'm going to take a look.
The stone bead still sat quietly on the candlestick, and there was no change. I always feel strange when I look at this bead. Since this is the blessed land of the Mei family for generations, the things in it are definitely not ordinary. Could this stone bead be a cultivator's magic weapon?
I used the method of the imperial weapon to sense the stone beads, and sure enough, they could merge with my body and mind, and it was really a magic weapon! I used my divine sense to urge the stone beads, and a soft white light suddenly emanated from the stone beads. This light is not dazzling, but it illuminates the entire bamboo house. The Dharma weapons of the cultivators in the world are really wonderful, and this one is really the pearl of the night. I don't know what kind of material the senior used to make it was made? This thing is much easier to use than a table lamp when I take it back, but it's a pity that it can't be used by a cultivator.
My eyes are not afraid of the dark, and I don't need to accept the spell at the moment. When I had nothing to do, I picked up a futon on the ground and went out and walked to the bamboo hut on the far left. Place the futon on the bamboo floor and sit cross-legged. Since there is this cave, I will meditate and practice here for the time being.
I just wanted to sit back for a while and calm my mind, and wait to see if it would show up. But there's one thing I've forgotten, and that's the place where I'm meditating now. This place is called Jingwu Cave Heaven, it is the place where the masters of the Mei family in Wucheng practiced in the past dynasties, and it is said that it is also the "feng shui eye" where the nine hundred miles of mountains and rivers converge in Wucheng. I didn't know at the time that practicing here could be a blessing or a curse.
In terms of benefits, the prosperity of heaven and earth aura here is really something I have never encountered in my life. On the downside, the cave heaven here has very high requirements for people's state and mind. To use an inappropriate analogy: a gold-hungry egg may dance like a mountain of gold when he suddenly appears, but a person who is already rich may only smile lightly.
I sat here to practice and turn my mind, only to feel that my vitality was agitated, and my spirit was also very clear. Here we need to go back and introduce the mental method of returning to the turn: there are two sets of the mental method of returning the turn: one is to pay attention to the realm of walking, sitting and lying in daily words and deeds, and the other is to meditate and practice exercises.
The vitality of the spirit embraces each other as a elixir. Where the elixir goes, there is no thought to guide it, but "I" is in this position. The most difficult part of this kung fu is called "Ladder to Heaven". The emphasis is on the elixir rising from the spine to the intracranial mud pill palace, allowing the pure divine consciousness to return to its source. This is the process of anti-innate and the most important step for those who cultivate the Dan Dao to pursue "immortality".
After the completion of the "ladder to heaven", it will be considered to enter the realm of returning. However, Dan Dao cannot ascend to the sky in one step, meditate, and perform exercises, and needs to "turn back" many times, so the Dan book is mostly described as "Jindan Nine Turns". In short, the most important fire in this kung fu is two words - retreat. However, at this time, I felt that although the consciousness of the gods was retreating and uneasy, although the original spirit was present but not quiet, there was boundless joy and warmth in my heart, and I could not suppress it, and a very comfortable feeling was almost overflowing from my whole body.
Although it was comfortable, I knew that it was not a good sign, and it was not a good sign that one of the seven emotions in the meditation was too strong. At this time, the elixir was running much more clearly, and there was no depth and heaviness of "going up the ladder" at all, and it seemed that the cultivation had improved a lot, but there was a lurking sense of restlessness. I was suddenly alert, and my mind was moved into a deeper state of concentration, and I forgot about this joy.
I forgot that I was full of vitality at this time, and I didn't care that the spirit was light at this time, but I honestly practiced the Nine Heavenly Ladder repeatedly. At this point I had forgotten what I was going to do, and suddenly the ladder was gone!
What does it mean that the ladder is gone? Even the ladder does not ascend to the elixir, nor does it turn, and I am out of the realm of turning. It all happened in an instant, and before that, I had no premonition, and after that, it suddenly dawned on me. Since Gu Danshu is difficult to understand, if you want me to write it in modern words, I can't write it. I think this kind of experience is still what the Buddhist scriptures say, and it is clear that Buddhism uses one word, which is "good protection" and "to the point". The idea of good protection can be used to describe the point that has yet to turn to the point of Jintang. Of course, Buddhism is fundamentally different from Dan Dao, and I just use these two words to describe the change in the realm.
