Chapter 44 There is a famous teacher in the world
A few days later.
My spiritual practice is on the right track.
The two of them were on their way to Xianyuan Temple again.
The mountain paths are not easy to walk. Many places are just trails that can barely be called roads or mountain cliffs that are barely walkable. They are slippery and dangerous, and two people and a fox are walking along them.
There was a faint blue in the sky, but the top of the mountain was in the clouds, and there were drops of water on their eyebrows and hair.
"Senior brother, the fox you picked up will be raised into a dog by you."
"It has been following the cats in the Taoist temple every day lately. It wants to be turned into a cat."
"But it has grown up a bit, and it is getting more and more beautiful. It is so slim and delicate!" the junior sister said as she walked, "Fourth senior brother said that it is definitely not an ordinary fox, it may be born from a fox spirit!"
"Maybe." Lin Jue thought of his previous experience, "Fox spirits may not be inferior to humans."
"That's true! But in the story, the foxes in the mountains all have the ability to change and confuse people. Senior brother, do you think it will have the same ability in the future?"
"Who knows?"
The little fox behind took small steps, as if he knew they were talking about him, and raised his head to look at them.
"Brother, look at the mountains!"
The junior sister who was walking in front suddenly stopped and pointed to the top of the mountain in the distance.
It is an extremely majestic and steep mountain. Almost the entire mountain is exposed granite, only covered with a little green. Even the unique Yishan pine here has difficulty taking root on it. Originally, it was completely blocked by clouds and fog.
When the wind blows, the top of the mountain is exposed, standing above the sea of clouds, as if it reaches straight to the sky.
Look in the direction pointed by the junior sister——
There seemed to be figures on the mountain, one behind the other, walking and talking on the seemingly dangerous granite rocks, and then they seemed to be sitting down to play chess and drink tea again.
"There's someone up there!"
"I saw it..."
The little junior sister looked up to the sky blankly: "What Master said is indeed true! There are indeed gods in Yishan!"
"It's possible."
Lin Jue also looked up.
I just feel the clouds and mist are lingering, the fairy spirit is floating, and the figures are so ethereal that it is difficult to see clearly. It is really like the fairy tales mentioned in the book.
They traveled on this road in the past month, and when they were lucky, they saw the true appearance of this peak. The rest of the time, it was mostly obscured by clouds and fog. Lin Jue asked his senior brother, and all he knew was that it was called Tiandu, and it seemed to be a city in the sky.
Meaning. The other peak opposite it is called Lotus, which is the residence of the mountain god.
However, this mountain looked close, but in fact it was just because it was so big that Lin Jue didn't know how to walk over it or where to climb.
At least it doesn't look like it can be climbed up.
It's a different matter if your spells are powerful.
"Let's go, junior sister."
"oh……"
The two came to Xianyuan Temple again.
Lin Jue and the others entered the mountain gate, went up the stone steps, and arrived at the door of the main hall.
Stop and take a closer look at the main hall. There are also couplets on both sides:
The mysterious wind sweeps under the pillar, and the immortal history has been completed for seventy years;
The mountains are filled with purple energy, and the Taoist scriptures once wrote five thousand words.
Lin Jue looked inside and saw that there were already more than a dozen young Taoist priests sitting inside. Wang Jizi was also sitting in front, closing his eyes and concentrating in the midst of the green smoke.
Over the past month, I have gradually come to know that Wang Jizi is indeed a person who is harsh on words but actually not harsh on the inside. Seeing that the two futons were still empty, the two of them walked over and sat down.
"Why did you come here?" A young Taoist priest sitting in the front turned around and stared at them with a frown, "I have to wait for you for a while every time. I know it's a long way, but don't you know to go out earlier?"
"Brother Dao, I've been waiting for a long time."
Lin Jue sat on the futon and said.
These young Taoist priests also have their own personalities. This young Taoist priest named Yun Yi is relatively strong. He is also considered to be relatively talented among the more than ten disciples of Xianyuan Temple. However, in previous sermons, he often heard
Lin Jue didn't understand, but he often had fluent exchanges with Wang Jizi. He usually learned to read, but he was not as good as the junior sister who came back every night to study until late at night. I think she must have been frustrated for more than half a month.
It wasn't until some time ago that the disciples of Xianyuan Temple began to learn and practice spiritual methods to attract the yin and yang energy into the body, which was necessary to go ahead of Fuqiu Temple, that they regained some confidence.
"Pure!"
A voice came from above, coming from Wangjizi.
Wangjizi knew that the road was long and dangerous, but he didn't say anything about it. Instead, he glanced at the little Taoist priest and said, "If you don't have any patience, how can you practice Taoism?"
Then he held up the whisk with a wave of his hand, stirring up the smoke that filled the room.
"Have you also started practicing spiritual magic?" Wangjizi glanced at the two people sitting at the back.
"here we go."
"How did you learn?"
"The spirit of yin and yang has been introduced into the body." Lin Jue was talking about his junior sister, and he succeeded on the first day, so naturally it had been several days.
"That's good."
Wangjizi said calmly:
"Introducing spiritual charm into the body is considered as entering the door of spiritual practice. Now that you have spiritual charm and Taoism, how can you do it if you don't know magic? Today I will teach you some commonly used spells."
As soon as this statement came out, many young Taoist priests were very excited.
"The name of this method is: Breathing the Wind."
Wang Jizi looked calm and continued:
"People often say that they can summon wind and rain, but in fact they are two spells: summoning rain is difficult to learn and the threshold is extremely high, while the threshold of summoning wind is much simpler. It just depends on your skill how big the wind can be. Even if it can only be done in a few days
A gust of breeze blew up within ten feet, and when I walked down the mountain, I showed it to others, and I felt a bit like a Taoist fairy."
Lin Jue sat still, and so did the junior sister.
The two of them have been like this for most of this month. Whenever they listen to others' sermons or learn spiritual methods, they must be attentive and will not even look at each other. Only after listening, they will discuss and study alone.
"Wind is the flow of air from heaven and earth. It is invisible but has traces, is colorless but has sound. Its nature is also soft, and its power is also strong. It can remove three autumn leaves, bloom February flowers, cross thousands of feet of waves in the river, and enter thousands of bamboo poles.
…”
Wangjizi muttered slowly.
A mountain breeze comes into the temple, blowing green smoke around and bringing some coolness in this midsummer.
It still lasted for most of the day.
What was different from before was that this time everyone was obsessed with the mysteries of magic and didn't even eat lunch. Wang Jizi was very engrossed in what he was talking about and didn't stop in the middle.
Even the fox at the door listened carefully.
From morning to afternoon.
"This method is mysterious. You all practice yin and yang spiritual methods. It can be calculated that these natural magic spells of heaven and earth are actually closer to the five elements. When you go back and understand it carefully, if you don't understand, you can ask Master Guanzhong. One month later
If you can blow a gentle breeze, you are considered to be talented in this 'breathing wind'. If the wind still cannot blow in three months, it is either a lack of talent or lack of understanding, or you are not destined for the wind, so there is no need to force it."
Taoist Wangjizi said to them:
"Today is the seventh day of the lunar month. One month later, it will be the seventh day of the seventh lunar month. Pindao will come again to test your progress."
After saying that, he waved his sleeves and robe and let everyone disperse.
Many young Taoist priests were eager to learn and still refused to leave. Instead, they sat together and whispered and discussed with each other. After a while, some of them got up.
"I wonder if there is any food left in the canteen?"
As soon as these words came out, many young Taoist priests felt hungry and quickly got up and ran to the dining hall to eat.
"Brother, we..."
The junior sister couldn't help turning her head to look at Lin Jue.
It is a very fair and delicate face.
"I'm hungry too, and it's getting late. Let's go back quickly."
"good!"
So he got up and went out and walked back.
Looking up, I saw that the clouds and mist that surrounded Tiandu Peak in the morning had dispersed somewhat, but not completely. There was still some light gauze draped around my body, and the presence or absence of clouds and clouds could change in volume and shape. It was endless to watch.
But the figure above has long since disappeared.
"Senior brother, do you understand?"
"In the clouds and fog."
"In the mist? What do you mean?"
"I don't really understand. I just remembered it."
"Then I'm still confused!"
"It sounds mysterious and elusive."
"I think so too. I'm afraid I won't be able to learn it." Every time the junior sister said a word, she felt extremely serious and her tone was very solemn. "Starting tomorrow, I will also learn 'Qishi' with Master."
"Then you have to work hard."
"Of course!"
"..."
"Senior brother, learn it quickly, don't be slower than them!"
"Watch the road carefully."
"oh."
"..."
"Senior brother, tell me, after we learn magic, can we climb that mountain?"
"Then we have to see if there are any senior brothers in the audience who know this kind of magic."
"What about the magic pill we took?"
"If you don't fall to death, you will definitely be able to get up."
"Then we should wait until we learn the magic and then climb up that mountain to find the gods. I'm afraid I'll fall to death."
"..."
Lin Jue unknowingly quickened his pace.
The little fox ran behind to catch up.
It was neither wind nor rain at this time, so we were on our way.
Return to Taoist Temple soon.
After eating something, Lin Jue went back to his room and opened the ancient book.
There is an extra page of writing in the book:
Breathe the wind, the method of raising the wind.
Calling wind and rain are all natural spells of heaven and earth. If you don't rely on divine power, you need to have a sense of the five natural elements of heaven and earth. It is mysterious and unpredictable. Some people can learn it in one night, while others cannot achieve it in their lifetime.
This is similar to what Wang Jizi said.
Lin Jue pinched the page and heard another sound.
According to the book, this kind of natural magic of heaven and earth should be classified into the five elements of magic, but it does not belong to any one category of the five elements. If you want to practice, there is no way to die, the only way is to have a sense of heaven and earth. Then he said
Learned the insights, tips and precautions from many predecessors.
Lin Jue was confused when he heard it, but he didn't seem to understand.
After listening to it twice, it was almost dusk, so I put down the ancient book and opened the door to go out.
I wanted to ask my master and senior brother for advice, but unexpectedly everything was empty except for the breeze. Lin Jue walked around and looked around, but I didn't see the shadow of my master and senior brother in the front and back yards and the two main halls. I just heard Ruoyouruo.
The sound of the flute came from the mountain. It must be that the fourth senior brother was practicing spiritual magic in the mountain and playing it when he was bored.
"..."
Lin Jue stood in the courtyard and thought for a while, then he simply picked up a hatchet and a backpack and prepared to go for a walk in the mountains to see if he could chop some firewood or pick up some mushrooms, and also look for his fourth senior brother on the way.
So I walked up the mountain following the sound of the flute.
There are two paths behind the Taoist temple, one on the left and one on the right. The one on the left passes by the alchemy pavilion of the second senior brother, and the one on the right passes by a small pavilion in the mountain, and then merges together above, finally leading to the summit of Fuqiu Peak.
Lin Jue heard the sound of the flute coming from the right, so he walked along the path on the right.
There are steps in this section, so it's easy to walk.
As we walked, the sound of the flute stopped.
"Um?"
Lin Jue stopped in the mountains, raised his head and looked around the mountains, at the vast woods, and couldn't tell the direction for a while.
But after thinking about it, it doesn't matter.
Looking for the fourth senior brother to ask for advice on "breathing the wind" is one purpose, and cutting firewood and collecting fungi on the mountain is also the purpose. I can't find the fourth senior brother, just chop wood. Besides, the fourth senior brother may not know the method of "breathing the wind", so I will ask for advice during dinner in the evening.
Master is also good.
So Lin Jue shook his head, took out his hatchet, and planned to walk down the steps and enter the dense forest to look for dead branches and dead wood.
However, I have just taken a step forward——
"call……"
The wind suddenly picked up in the evening in the mountains.
The wind was so strong and free that it blew up Lin Jue's hair and clothes, showing off his shape. The wind was so cool, and the heat of climbing the mountain was taken away at once.
Lin Jue felt as if he was in an ocean of wind.
It was midsummer at this time, and there were bell-flowering trees everywhere in the mountains, producing green thumb-sized flowers, shaped like the ancient bells that ring every day in Taoist temples, densely packed in clusters. Next to the pavilion, there were
The tall trees produced clusters of green flower seeds, or maybe tree fruits, which were smaller than mung beans, and covered the road paved with bluestone slabs.
When the wind blows, the bell flowers and leaves all rustle, and the flower seeds on the ground fly with the wind, spinning around Lin Jue, like light green dust, drawing the path of the wind.
Lin Jue suddenly froze on the spot.
Today, everything Wang Jizi said during the day rang in his mind, and the voices in the ancient book also rang in his mind. At this moment, Lin Jue seemed to really feel the world at this time, and he instantly understood what wind was. It was a kind of wind.
A mystery that is difficult to describe in words.
Lin Jue had never understood the shape and sound of the wind better than at this moment in his life.
For a moment, it seemed like it was about to ride on the wind.
After a while, the wind stopped.
The sky and the earth had just been swept by a strong wind, but now they were completely silent again, contrasting with the ultimate silence.
In the silence, there was another sound.
"wind……"
The bell flower next to the pavilion suddenly trembled and trembled, like a string of green bells shaking, it was so cute.
Then immediately the wind picked up, blowing the bell flowers in the direction of the wind, and the green dust on the ground flew up again, spinning around Lin Jue. The fox raised his head and followed these flower seed dust with his eyes, covered with soft fur
It was also shaken by the wind, outlining the shape of the wind.
The only difference is that the wind at this time is only next to this pavilion.
Lin Jue still stood where he was.
At this time, my heart is full of mystery, and there is an indescribable sense of accomplishment in the mystery, creating a sense of fun and joy that is rare in the world, as if I have transformed into the wind and wandered in the mountains.
Chapter completed!
