Chapter 42 The old Confucian asked Jin Dandao by mistake

Liu Shusheng was beaten up inexplicably, and Shi Zixuan didn't know it, so he followed the scholar to the door of the old Confucian student's house.

This old Confucian family is not big, but it is a little elegant, there is a plaque on the door, with black ink written in large characters "moral home", the font is thick, steady and a little less elegant, it should be from the old Confucian handwriting.

"E.D. House, hey. Shi Zixuan laughed secretly.

"Dao Chief, please go this way. The scholar led Shi Zixuan into the door, just arrived at the inner courtyard, and saw the old Confucian running out of it, and when he saw Shi Zixuan, he bowed respectfully three times and said, "Dao Chief, it's polite." I didn't know the real person before, and I was rude, and I was really rude. ”

"I'm not a real person. Are you worshipping the wrong person?" Shi Zixuan had a look of surprise on his face.

"That's right, that's right. How can you be wrong? The old Confucian lowered his eyebrows and said quickly.

The scholar was dumbfounded, and said secretly in his heart: "Sir, what is this madness? Performing a disciple salute to a Taoist, is this to abandon Confucianism and Taoism?"

When he was thinking wildly, he heard the old Confucian say: "Tong'er, what are you doing standing stupidly, go and make tea for the Taoist." ”

"Yes, sir. The scholar came back to his senses and hurriedly went down to make tea.

After taking away the scholar, the old Confucian led the master into the inner room, suddenly bowed to the ground, and said reverently: "Dao Chief, I know that you are a person of the Tao, please accept me to get started, clear the avenue, and visit the entrance." ”

Shi Zixuan smiled dumbly and said: "Old man, what are you doing, I am not a true person, what are you doing with me?" ”

Pulling this old Confucian up, I saw that his old eyes were tearful and said: "The Taoist chief is a real person and does not show his face, why hide it from me? If the Taoist is not a cultivator, who else will there be?"

Shi Zixuan said: "There is no shortage of Taoist temples in Qinghe County, and I heard that Yunlaiguan is the largest Taoist temple in the seven counties nearby, and there are countless high-ranking people in it, why don't you visit and ask?"

The old Confucian said disdainfully: "Those Taoists, they all look like fairy wind and dao bones, and the filth in their bones, why don't I know? I have also been there before, and asked the master of the temple for advice." Daoist, what do you know about this person?"

Shi Zixuan's heart moved, and he said, "I have never been to Yunlaiguan, how do I know how that person's cultivation is?"

The old Confucian said: "The main Taoist name is Guangzhen, he is over forty years old, and he has a good face. It looks like a fairy wind and bones, like a man of the Tao. At that time, I thought it was Yujian who had a true cultivation of the Dao, and I begged for a long time and gave a lot of money to make offerings, so that I could hear the Guangzhen Taoist personally preach the Fa. ”

Shi Zixuan asked, "What kind of scripture is this person talking about, and what kind of law is he talking about?"

"What scriptures can you say, let alone teach the Fa. The old Confucian sneered: "What he said was 'fooling the true scriptures' and talking about 'ghost stories'." ”

This old Confucian student, in the end, has read too many books, and he is so elegant in scolding.

Shi Zixuan smiled and said, "How do you know what nonsense he said?"

The old Confucian smiled and said, "Dao Chief, you don't know anything. I have long had the heart of the Tao, ten years of searching for ancient books and Taoist scriptures, ten years of seeking true cultivators, and ten years of self-enlightenment and cultivation. As soon as he opened his mouth, he couldn't hide it from me if he really cultivated or not. ”

The old Confucian made his intention to the Tao clear.

Shi Zixuan nodded and said: "Real people don't fake, fake is not real people, what you said is good." ”

"Daoist, I have been looking for a good teacher for many years, I can only practice by myself, can I ask the Taoist for some advice? Although my cultivation method is simple, it really allows me to cultivate some famous halls. ”

The old Confucian asked with some expectation.

Shi Zixuan said: "You say come and listen. ”

The old Confucian said: "At first, it was settled. In the silence and no one's place, meditate on the mind, and ask yourself not to have a thought. ”

Shizi Xuan said: "It is not appropriate to enter the void in order to seek emptiness." ”

The old Confucian said: "It was difficult to do it at first, the more you want to be quiet, and the more distracting thoughts you don't have, the more distracting thoughts you have." ”

Shi Zixuan said: "Knowing God does not seek the Dudou Palace, it is rare to have self-nature." This requires a certain amount of chance and a wide range of knowledge. It should be born out of nowhere. ”

"For most of the year, I couldn't stay in silence. I finally came up with a stupid solution. I imagined that I was a pen, writing in a fantasy. Write only one word. But there are too many strokes of the word 'Dao', the front pen is written, and the back pen is forgotten. Anti-multiplication of distracting thoughts. ”

When the old Confucian said this, he smiled bitterly: "Later, when I thought about it, I was really stupid to go home, the path has not yet been found, and I still want to use the Tao to enter meditation, which is simply putting the cart before the horse." Later, I tried the word 'one' again, and this time it worked. In the visualization, only one 'one' is written, horizontally and vertically, and gradually the thought is one 'one', but it falls into emptiness. ”

Shi Zixuan thought secretly: "This Confucian is really a little clever, but unfortunately this is a 'false emptiness', and it is not a 'viewing emptiness'." Jing is there, but he can't find the gate of Dudou Palace. ”

The old Confucian said: "That time I fell into the silence, empty and mysterious, as if I was asleep, but my consciousness was still awake. When I opened my eyes, it was already dawn, but I only felt that it was a moment. I was overjoyed in my heart, and I knew that this was what the general outline of "Zifu Danxiao Jue" said, 'emptiness and no phase, free entry and exit'. ”

When the old Confucian said this, he suddenly stopped, saw that Shi Zixuan had not spoken, and said, "Dao Chief, are you listening?"

Shi Zixuan nodded and said, "I'm listening." What happened?"

At this moment, the scholar knocked on the door and came in, brought tea to the two of them, and exited to close the door.

The old Confucian drank the tea in one gulp, relieved his dry tongue, and said, "Naturally, I started to cultivate the Jindan Dao. ”

As soon as the old Confucian finished speaking, the tea that Shi Zixuan had just sent to his mouth almost didn't squirt out.

coughed, and said with a secret smile in his heart: "Jindan Dao? This is a secret of the Xuanmen, no true immortal fortune, no real person's exquisite heart, how can I cultivate? Even I haven't been taught by the master, where did you learn this old Confucian student?"

When the old Confucian saw the strange state of his master, he couldn't help asking, "Dao Chief, what's wrong?"

This old Confucian was really a little nervous.

Shi Zixuan shook his head and said, "Your cultivation is the kung fu of entering the concentration, let's not talk about this first, I'll listen to what you said about the Jindan Avenue." ”

The old Confucian said: "This Jindan Avenue is subtle, but it is also simple. At the beginning of the day, meditate facing east, in the silence of the air, visualize the birth of elixir and jade liquid in the mouth, hold it on the tip of the tongue, take the medicinal truth, turn it into sweet rain, and flow into the abdomen in three times. In this process, visualize the birth of an innate fire in the abdomen, forging medicine and refining water. Think about the 'true self' and sit in the golden lotus of fire, forging me to return to the truth. ”

When Shi Zixuan heard this, he felt creepy. Where is this cultivation, it is simply entering the path of demons.

The true self is innate with a little spiritual light, and the soul consciousness has not retreated, how can the true spirit of the primordial god come out? Not to mention that this person has not yet entered the Tao and opened the Fa. Even if he took off the mortal womb, he didn't dare to say, "Forge me to return to the truth".

This means that this person's cultivation is not enough, so there is no problem with cultivation. If Shi Zixuan is bewitched like this, he will come to "forge me to return to the truth", I am afraid that the original spirit will not be refined, and the soul sense will be forged to be true.

The old Confucian didn't know it yet, half happy and half showing off: "The emperor lives up to his painstaking efforts, refining the law like this, building the foundation for a hundred days, and finally felt countless mystical lights in the sky, and as soon as he jumped into it, he saw the landscape in his body. ”

"This person really has a Dao heart, and he can swim his soul consciousness by mistake, but unfortunately he has deviated. On paper, it is finally shallow, a piece of scripture, and it is difficult to enter the right path after all. ”

Why did Shi Zixuan say this? Why did he say that without the true transmission of the Guru, it would be difficult to enter the right path?

What is a teacher? A teacher is a pre-conscious person.

Without enlightenment, without true knowledge, without enlightenment, how can you be a teacher to others?

Therefore, what the Guru says, it must be the Guru's own testimony and understanding, otherwise the Guru will not talk nonsense.

When the master teaches the Dharma, it doesn't mean that the Dharma has been passed on to you, and then it's over, and the sheep are herded thoroughly. It's about telling you how to walk, how to walk, where to go, and where not to go. And in the midst of your walkway, always mention it, and do not deviate from the road.

And a person, no matter how rooted, no matter how wise, after all, there are obstacles to knowledge, and it is rare to have correct knowledge and enlightenment.

The forty-nine stations of the avenue, it is likely that the forty-eight stations in front of him came step by step, smoothly and smoothly, but because no one dialed, there was a misunderstanding at the Zuihou station, and the road deviated, and the road fruit gradually drifted away.

Therefore, Xiang Lao Confucian, he felt that he had an ancient preaching scripture with secret methods, and he could cultivate himself with his own wisdom and knowledge, which was really ridiculous and generous.

If cultivation is really so simple, how can there be a legend in the world that the gods and immortals have gone into the mountains to cultivate, and the saints of literature have established the Tao, so why should they ask the sages?

As soon as he thought of this, Shi Zixuan said secretly: "It's difficult for this person to have the heart of the Tao, it's better to click on him, listen to him or not, and look at his chance." ”

After thinking about it, he said: "Old man, I heard you say, all this is your self-cultivation and self-cultivation as you say in the Taoist scriptures?"

The old Confucian said, "Yes." Michigan, please advise. ”

"I don't dare to advise. It's just that I don't understand one thing, may I ask, the old gentleman didn't teach the Fa Guru, if the cultivation is wrong, what should I do?" Shi Zixuan asked.

"How can what the scriptures say be wrong?" said the old Confucian in confusion.

"The scriptures may be true, but they are dead things. However, people have cognitive obstacles, and it is easy to mistake the false for the true. Shi Zixuan said very seriously.

The old Confucian stood up and saluted: "Dao Chief, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly, please advise." ”

"I can't give advice, you and I have different cultivation methods. I just have a suggestion. Sir, if you believe me, please stop your practice, go to the Dharma Master first, and then practice on your own when you have a certain foundation. ”

Shi Zixuan didn't need to say this, but after all, he set up a trap for him first, and at this time, he casually clicked it, and it was also the end of the fate.

When the old Confucian heard this, he felt that there was some reason, but how could he be willing to let him stop practicing the "Jindan Avenue", which was already "Xiaocheng"?

"Is this Taoist Master suggesting that I should worship him as a teacher first before I can pass on my true Fa and teach me to practice?" The old Confucian felt that he had comprehended the meaning of his master's words, and that he had arrived by chance.

As soon as he thought of this, he knelt on the ground with a plop, and he was about to kowtow to the teacher.

Shi Zixuan was startled, hurriedly avoided it, and said, "Old man, what are you doing here?"

The old Confucian said: "The disciple is the heart of the Tao, the heaven and the earth can be learned, seek the Tao and grow compassion, and accept me to practice in the beginning." ”

Shi Zixuan couldn't help but laugh and said: "I myself am a practitioner, how can I teach people to practice? ”

The old Confucian was pulled up by Shi Zixuan, and he was disappointed in his heart, but he still comforted himself and said, "Yes." The ancient immortals have to be tested many times, how can I give up because of one refusal?"

The thought turned, and the old Confucian student became more determined to apprentice.

The two talked for a while, one was apologetic and deliberately ignited, and the other was catechumens for a long time and listened carefully.

Unconsciously, the sky was getting dark, and Shi Zixuan stopped talking and got up to say goodbye.

Even if the old Confucian is reluctant to give up, he can only send it away.

As he walked out, the old Confucian suddenly said, "Daoist, I know that cultivators all look at the fate. I am a poor old Confucian, and I don't have much money to support the Taoist, and I think that the Taoist can spend a lot of money on doing good, and I don't look down on those mundane things. ”

As he spoke, he called the scholar to the back house and brought a brute, with a green body and a strong body, which was a green cow.

The old Confucian took the reins and said respectfully: "Dao Chief, you have been walking in the middle of the road for a long time, traveling all over the world, how can you do without a mount to walk? Although this ox is a little old, it is still feasible to be a foot force." This is a little bit of my heart, please don't refuse. ”

When Shi Zixuan heard this, he was secretly happy in his heart: "I'm still going to talk about it." I didn't expect him to send it himself. ”

Shi Zixuan was not polite to him, took the reins, sat on the back of the cow reflexively, and said, "Thank you, the poor road is gone." Before leaving, send a message to the old gentleman. ”

The old Confucian hurriedly said, "Daoist, please speak." ”

"Don't force everything, just wait for chance. Don't miss it when you come, and smile when you are at the end of your fate. Master Xuan arched his hand, patted the cow's back, and went.

The old Confucian stood in front of the door, pondering the true meaning of this man's words, and never left for a long time.

Shi Zixuan didn't know that this sentence had hurt the old Confucian student, so he rode a green ox, slowly soared, and walked to Liu Puzhi's house.

When he walked to no one's place, Shi Zixuan suddenly pulled the reins and turned over and got off the back of the cow.

I only heard this person look at this green cow, as if he was smiling, and said: "Do you know who I am, but you still don't know what you are?"

As soon as Shi Zixuan's voice fell, he saw that the green cow was bent on all fours, kneeling on the ground, and actually said: "It's not that I deliberately deceive the immortal chief, but I can't tell if the immortal chief is the life-saver." ”

Shi Zixuan was stunned for a moment and said, "What kind of life-saver?"

The green cow wept and cried: "My master is in trouble now, there is a great calamity in his life, and there are great blessings in his life, and if he can't get by, it is a death calamity." Only the Immortal Elder can save it. ”

"What did you say!"

When Shi Zixuan heard this, his color changed. PS: Spit it out, the chapter name of this chapter should be "The old Confucian asked Jin Dandao by mistake, and the true walker must not walk alone", but the starting point chapter name can only be within 20 words, which is exceeded. What kind of trouble is this?,The soul is faint~~~~ Bitter begging for votes to comfort!!
