Chapter 279 Silver Medal and Sutra Pavilion(1/2)
"Fellow Taoist Fan has helped us so much, I really don't know how to thank you." Lin Jue looked at Master Fan Tian.
"It's just a little effort, and we are neighbors, so why thank you? What's more, Pindao hadn't thanked the two Taoist brothers for what happened by the Weishui River. Pindao hasn't forgotten that matter." Fan Tianshi said, "The two Taoist brothers still thanked each other.
Whatever magic you are interested in, just say it."
"How embarrassing..."
Fan Tianshi knew as soon as he heard that there was indeed more, and he was really unambiguous:
"But please tell me!"
"It's the New Year. Why bother fellow Taoists? Let's talk about it after the New Year."
"Brother Taoist, you might as well say it first, I'll think of a solution after the New Year. It's Chinese New Year right now, and no one else in Juxian Mansion has time."
"..."
Lin Jue thought for a while and then said:
"Fellow Taoist knew that after we came down the mountain, we were far away from our senior brothers. It was very inconvenient to communicate with each other. My junior sister also missed these senior brothers very much. We heard from Luo Gong that there are people in Juxian Mansion who can travel thousands of miles a day.
If we can exchange our skills for this magic, it will relieve a big worry in our hearts."
After listening to this, Fan Tianshi thought for a moment:
"In Juxian Mansion, there are indeed strange people who have the ability to travel thousands of miles in a day. However, there is actually more than one person, but two or three. The one who is usually seen is the 'Prince of Shenxing', but he is rarely in the capital, but
Traveling between the north and south and the capital, bringing urgent news to the imperial court."
"Two or three?"
"Anyway, there is more than one. As far as I know, these people have different abilities." Fan Tianshi said, "Anyway, I just have to go and check it out for the two Taoist brothers."
"Thank you, fellow Taoist!"
"Brother Taoist, you're welcome." Master Fan Tianshi returned the greeting, "By the way, this wooden sign is really not suitable for Taoist brother's identity. Pindao had a talk with Zhou Langzhong from the Ministry of Rites some time ago, and Taoist brother a few days ago
On the street, I cast a spell to subdue the stone horse. The Ministry of Rites will soon change the card for Taoist brother. Pindao guessed that it should be a silver medal. By then, Taoist brother can go to the Sutra Pavilion in the Star Observation Palace to read books.
"
"Isn't this another sign of friendship from fellow Taoists?"
"Nothing."
After chatting for a long time, Fan Tianshi left.
Lin Jue opened the "Five Elements Commentary".
The pages inside are also very old, but there are no signs of damage, and the writing has not faded. In addition to the owner keeping it well, there should be other mysterious things.
"Between heaven and earth, all things grow together without harming each other, and the great ways run parallel without conflict. The five elements are metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Each of these five elements has its own strengths. They are mutually reinforcing and restraining each other, and they are the great ways of endless heaven and earth...
"Gold is born in water and hidden in stone..."
Under each sentence, there are detailed notes in small print.
Lin Jue had read the "Yin Yang Jing" and knew that these big characters were probably the content of the "Five Elements Jing". The content itself is not unusual. It can be seen everywhere and everywhere like the Great Dao. What is strange is that later sages said
The annotations he made are the small print below.
So this is actually a "note".
The annotations on this note are obviously not only about explaining the Five Elements Sutra and translating it into easy-to-understand words, but also about the annotator’s own deep understanding and the use of the Five Elements accordingly.
This is the way to practice.
However, this book is still not straightforward. It is a pure spiritual practice. It only contains the spiritual practice. The Taoist friend named Wan was able to understand the Five Elements Spiritual Method based on it. It seems that his talent in this aspect is really high.
If you just try to understand it yourself, you will inevitably take detours.
Detours can be small or big.
So Lin Jue said to his junior sister: "I will read this book first. If there are no problems, I will copy it for you."
"knew!"
The junior sister didn't think much about it.
Lin Jue took the book and returned to his room. He not only waited for Fan Tianshi to explore the magic for him, but also studied the Five Elements Commentary.
A few days later, there was a reaction in the ancient book.
Lin Jue immediately opened it.
"Wow..."
Five elements annotation method, one of the five elements spiritual methods.
The Five Elements Great Way is simple but difficult to find. The ascetics are often limited by their natural talents and find it difficult to embark on this path, and it is even more difficult for them to achieve it.
The ancient saints wrote the "Five Elements and Five Qi Sutra", which describes the principles of the five qi of heaven and earth and the five elements. Later generations studied the annotations from generation to generation and gradually obtained the essence of the Five Elements spiritual method. Due to different annotations, different methods of seeking the Tao are also extended, such as The "Five Elements Commentary" obtained the "Five Elements Annotation Method". Because it explains why people are immortals, it is also called "He's Five Elements". The "Five Elements Original Meaning" obtains the "Five Elements Basic Method". The annotator has lost his name. However, there are various types of Five Elements Spiritual Methods. It is not like the yin and yang spiritual method, which is divided into large and small. It is just that the paths to seek the Tao are slightly different, run parallel and often intertwined, and each has its own advantages and disadvantages.
The five elements injection method is slow at first and then fast, and the magic power is powerful.
"Slow first and then fast, the magic power is strong?"
Lin Jue tasted this sentence, staring at the ancient book and thinking.
In this way, my junior sister first practices Yin Yang Spiritual Technique and already has a lot of Taoist practices. Then she specializes in Five Elements Spiritual Technique. Although she will lose some Taoist practices, she will not be low after the loss. Is it possible that she can skip this Five Elements Spiritual Technique? What is the relatively slow initial practice process of the Dharma?
"Oh……"
Lin Jue shook his head and smiled.
If my talent hadn't been in Yin and Yang instead of the Five Elements, and if I hadn't acquired many mysterious Yin and Yang spells and was good at fighting, I would have really wanted to practice the Five Elements together with my junior sister.
Lin Jue was about to hold the pages of the book and listen carefully, when someone suddenly called him outside.
So I put my hand on the book and listened carefully.
It turned out that Wu Lingshi was here.
Not in a hurry, Lin Jue thought for a moment, then closed the book, blew out the night light and walked out.
Sure enough, as Fan Tianshi said -
The Ministry of Rites changed his nameplate from wooden to silver and skipped the bronze medal in the middle. As soon as Xiumu had finished, Wu Lingshi sent it to him and wished him a happy old age before the New Year was over.
"In the past, the prime minister of the Dayu Dynasty built a total of four sutra-collecting pavilions, namely Biluo Pavilion, Jade Slips Pavilion, Lingtai Pavilion and Zangzhen Pavilion, all in the Star Viewing Palace. The real person went over with the silver medal, Biluo Pavilion, Jade Slips Pavilion
You can come in and out of the building and Lingtai Pavilion at will." Wu Lingshi said to him, "During this period of Chinese New Year, which lasts until the Lantern Festival, the Stargazing Palace is very lively. Many people go to offer incense, and real people can also go see it.
look."
"That's fine!"
Lin Jue looked at the sterling silver nameplate in his hand and thought in his mind.
Indeed, during the recent Chinese New Year, according to the custom at this time and place, people often go to offer incense to the gods, but I have been in the capital for so long and have not yet visited the Star Observation Palace.
Just in time to join in the fun.
It just so happened that the Five Elements Spiritual Technique in the ancient book was activated today. It just needs to be copied and then given to the junior sister to learn slowly. Lin Jue was also happy in his heart. It was a good thing to join in the fun while he was happy.
After seeing Wu Lingshi off, Lin Jue walked to the quiet room.
The wooden door is open, and there is a long case inside. The female Taoist is sitting in front of the case, carefully writing the law of fire with a pen. Her loose Taoist robe is spread out like a flower on the ground.
"Junior sister."
The female Taoist turned her head to look at him.
"Stop trying so hard. He can't copy faster than you can write. The capital is busy recently. Let's go out and visit the Star Observation Palace."
"Oh! OK!"
The female Taoist thought for a while, then stood up as soon as her legs gained strength.
…
At the same time, Wan Xinrong was also in his courtyard, lowering his head and copying the book "The Mountain Presses the Top" carefully.
During this process, he seemed to be reading and thinking. He often stopped and looked thoughtful, and his eyes often lit up. He seemed to have no idea that magic power could be used in this way and that the Five Elements had such wonderful features.
Sometimes he even stood up and clapped his hands and circled.
A woman often came to see him at the door and cared about him, but he didn't even seem to know she was there. The woman often brought him some tea and snacks and fruits, but he was completely immersed in it, and it was like a glance.
Without looking at herself, the woman couldn't help but lean on the doorway, sighing secretly.
He stretched out his hand and touched his face, which was gradually getting older and discolored, and the fat that was gradually growing on his waist and abdomen. Then he thought about the beautiful concubine that his husband had taken in years ago, and he felt even more worried.
For a moment, I just felt that I was getting fat and ugly, and that my husband must have been obsessed with that beautiful concubine at night, so he didn't even look at me.
Thinking of the poor and miserable days back then, I suddenly felt a little sad.
Most men in the world are lustful. This is a man's nature, and she understands it. She likes that delicate and flowery little girl, let alone men. But she heard that many people in the capital who have achieved wealth are not right even if they marry a concubine.
The first wife respects her so much that she only spends the night with her concubine at most, not to mention not even looking at his useless wife during the day.
"well……"
The woman suddenly thought about a rumor she heard during the Chinese New Year this year.
To be continued...
