"Senior, all the techniques and seal seals of the Kaitian Dharma are all graceful. They opened the eyes of the younger generation and made them fascinated. But now it is difficult to teach the juniors to calm down with only the techniques and the way of seal seals. We only seek the true method. A look at the sutra."
At this time, in the huge and quiet Taoist temple, only the young man Lu Minghai, Shang Bo and Zong Lao were sitting there leisurely.
After hearing what the young man said, almost at the same time, both Shang Bo and Zong Laojin opened their eyes after closing their eyes in meditation.
But ever since the young man Lu Minghai walked out of the carriage, Uncle Shang fell into silence for a long time. He no longer had any words, and even the presence of his body was reduced to the minimum. But only those who had the intention to Only a few people can recall that every time they saw Lu Minghai, Uncle Shang's figure would always appear in the corner of his vision.
At this moment, when I heard the young man's voice ringing calmly in the Taoist temple, the first person to react was actually Uncle Shang. His thick eyes didn't seem to contain much emotion. He first looked at him cautiously. He glanced at Mr. Zong, who was still in meditation with his eyes closed, and then looked at the piles of Taoist books stacked in front of the young man, almost forming a hill.
Then, Uncle Shang, who remained silent, closed his eyes indifferently almost as soon as Elder Zong's expression changed and reacted.
Lu Minghai has naturally developed the habit of looking at books wherever he goes since he was a child. It is precisely for this reason that Zhongzhou has spread the reputation of Lu Minghai's "humanoid Taoist treasure".
But Uncle Shang was not optimistic about Lu Minghai's request.
Others may not know it yet, but Uncle Shang, who has taken care of Lu Minghai since he was a child, knows that the fact that "Hunyuan Taoism itself has a big problem" has deeply affected Lu Minghai's life since its discovery. Mental thoughts.
Too anxious.
Even though Lu Minghai maintained restraint and calmness throughout this matter, in Uncle Shang's view, this restraint and calmness were actually just the inertial continuation of all Lu Minghai's previous emotions.
Especially for a "Human Taoist" like Lu Minghai who had seen a lot in the past, 99% of the things in this world would not make him move, but once he encountered something that could change his mind, he would often It was extremely difficult to get rid of it. In fact, the more he pretended to be calm at this time, the more the thoughts in his mind had become a stubborn problem for Lu Minghai.
Moreover, after experiencing the successive battles with the two of them that day, and after experiencing Lu Minghai's personal insight into the spells and seal scripts in the Kaitian method, Lu Minghai Xu also made his own judgment. ——
The ancient rumors are wrong. The method of opening the sky may not be really old. There may be other reasons why its legal system has been cut off over time.
And if Hunyuan Method truly has fallacies and disharmony in its very essence, then for Lu Minghai, it might be too late to change his path in time.
But it was just too late.
After all, he missed a step. If he were in the foundation-building realm, even if he was at the peak of the foundation-building realm, Lu Minghai could easily refine his own Taoist foundation with secret methods, and it would not be difficult to change the Taoist method.
But he is now in the realm of elixir fetus. Even if he is entering the realm of elixir fetus for the first time, some of the paths he has traveled are destined to be irreversible.
Therefore, the difficulty of changing the Tao and changing the method is increasing, and the period left for him to seek opportunities has become very short. Even if he continues to cultivate deeply in the realm of elixir, once he has practiced it, the Tao charm of the result will be
It will be completely integrated into the essence of the physical body. At that time, perhaps changing the path and changing the method itself will mean irreparable shortcomings and disharmony in the results.
Shi Yuting's experience is actually a clear proof of this. What she and Sixth Master Uncle practice are still the same Tao and Dharma, but they are just different details of the Tao and Dharma that come from the same source. It is easier to force it halfway.
, the capital teacher Yuting reached the peak of Dantai realm in one step and suffered from it at the same time.
Now, she has to hope that she can rely on Chu Weiyang's "faculty" to teach her to completely master, accommodate and refine the Taoist arts, and then seek to open the door to the golden elixir realm.
This is true even for Taoism and Dharma from the same sect and origin.
Lu Minghai wanted to jump from the Hunyuan Method to the Open Heaven Method, which was almost equivalent to going from a familiar field to a completely unfamiliar field.
The difficulty can be imagined.
So the more this happened, the more Lu Minghai had to seize the last remaining opportunity.
But it is precisely because of this that when one's mind goes back and forth, it is inevitable that one will be unable to advance or retreat.
Too anxious.
Moreover, very subtly, perhaps because he was based in the Golden Core Realm with the Hunyuan Method, Shang Bo did not necessarily have such recognition and support for Lu Minghai's idea of changing his path to change the method.
There may indeed be some problems with the Hunyuan Method, but the problem itself may not reach the point where it would require people to "escape" in such an "embarrassing" way.
At least, Uncle Shang is firmly established in the current realm, no matter what he saw, what he had insight into, or what he guessed earlier.
Indescribably, there was still some disapproval in his mind.
Perhaps even Uncle Shang himself was not aware of such subtle emotional changes.
But at the same time, when Uncle Shang's thoughts were flowing like this, the old man in the sect woke up from his trance like an afterthought.
He looked at the mountain of books piled up into a hill in front of him, with a kind smile on his face.
When he spoke again, Mr. Zong did not directly respond to Lu Minghai's words at the first time, but instead asked further.
"My little friend, are you interested in the method we practice to open the sky?"
Just asking this question lightly, Mr. Zong's eyebrows changed slightly under Lu Minghai's gaze, and the change itself seemed to reveal the hidden meaning behind the light sentence in this way.
Elder Zong seemed to have only said this sentence, but in Lu Minghai's feeling, it seemed as if he had said everything in a thousand words.
To be honest, Lu Minghai didn't like this feeling, he didn't like having such a meaningful conversation with an old man.
The words themselves are not like the pearls and sentences on the scriptures. Although the aftertaste is long, all the meanings are finally returned to the lines. But the words of such an old man are different. Many times
The words themselves are all vain cover-ups, and the true meaning is never in the pronunciation of the words.
Rather than facing such old monsters, Lu Minghai prefers to immerse himself in the books written by the sages. Even if some books are too difficult to understand, the process of understanding their meanings can make Lu Minghai feel happy no matter how difficult it is.
.
However, if he wanted to change his path and change his method, Lu Minghai had to force himself up and face the old monster in front of him.
This step is a difficult and unpleasant process. No one can face it for him, not even Uncle Shang.
Even when he saw those eyebrows that looked like a smile but not a smile, Lu Minghai felt that he had lost his temper and lost the opportunity.
"Yes, the method of opening the sky is very mysterious. It is natural for juniors to be interested in it. But I don't know what seniors have to teach me?"
Now that the bottom line has been leaked, Lu Minghai simply goes to the bottom. After all, whether it is vain or straightforward, there are always some problems that must be faced.
Hearing these words, Mr. Zong smiled even more subtly. He was not affected by Lu Minghai's words at all.
"My good friends know that the continuation of this sect's lineage is actually more important than the life and death of one or two people, or even one or two generations.
Perhaps the Zhongzhou where our distinguished guests came from was very prosperous and there was no sense of sectarianism. However, where we live, the world is like this.
Therefore, if you want to find magic spells and Taoist books on talismans, you should open your mouth and you will find everything you need. To put it harshly, if you read these rubbings and burn them, you will not necessarily feel heartbroken.
But if you ask about my method of practicing Kaitian Dharma? Forgive me for being blunt, let alone a scripture, there is not a single word in it!
Pindao understands that my friend's interest may stem from a true thought in his mind, but there are still sectarian views in this world. Just like Pindao directly asking about my Taoist practice method, Xiaodao
Are you really willing to tell me?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Minghai frowned little by little.
What Mr. Zong said was not unreasonable.
When he asked, Lu Minghai had thought that this would be a difficult thing to achieve, but even so, Lu Minghai never thought that looking at it like this would be almost like a dead end.
In this land of alienation, is the view of the door so deep?
Seeing Lu Minghai's frown deepening, Zong Lao chuckled a few more times, waking up the young man's mind from being immersed in his own thoughts, and made the young man look at Mr. Zong again.
.
"Of course, in fact, there is nothing mysterious about the Kaitian Method itself. You don't need to think about the gap between your Taoist method and the Kaitian Method. In fact, as long as it is within the scope of Tao and Dharma, many principles
It may seem like they are going in opposite directions, but in the end they may just lead to the same destination through different paths.
For example, in the eyes of a poor Taoist, in fact, all the ways in the world can enter the Dharma of opening the sky. After all, all the phenomena are in the universe and are controlled by the principle of birth and restraint. In fact, if one restrains in this life, it will be
It is the way of heaven and earth. The so-called method of opening heaven, no matter which one it is, is ultimately attributed to cultivating yin and yang.
One yin and one yang are called the Tao, and the method, little friend, is also in the Tao!"
When he heard these words, Lu Minghai was rarely moved by it.
For the first time, he stood up respectfully and bowed to the elder Zong.
"Senior, please continue to teach me."
When he heard this, the elders in the place smiled even more reservedly.
"Little friend, the true inheritance here in Pindao is only this sentence. This is the fate between you and me, but it is only this sentence, but..."
"But what?"
"In fact, there is no need to listen to all the old words. For the little friends, maybe it is the real invincible path of civil and military fighting in the trial field. It is the time when you really cultivate and practice the scriptures and develop your own method. At that time, you can ascend to the altar.
The Dharma is taught, and all the precious words and sentences are all authentically passed down!"
When he heard this, Lu Minghai was finally moved and showed a look of eagerness and expectation.
And the more this happened, the more subtle Zong Lao smiled.
"Of course, this is how fate works in the world. It's just exchanging true stories for true stories. Little friend, just think about it!"
