Chapter 55 Incense in the Cauldron and Smoke in the Dream (Part 2)
After the words fell, he felt an almost dizzy shaking feeling in his trance, as if the world was tilting and the earth dragon was rolling; but blinking his eyes suddenly, Chu Weiyang felt that this hazy change originated from his own mind.
.
When I looked again, I saw that there were still lush mountains bustling with people all around, and behind the wooden table was still the young man with an unruly expression.
But as Chu Weiyang finished speaking, an unexplained feeling told him that everything in front of him was different——
He suddenly smelled the simple fragrance of the earth. The leaves all around rustled in the gentle wind, as if the beautiful connotation of spring emerged. Even the face of the unruly young man became vivid.
.
In Chu Weiyang's ears, the young man's voice was vague and distant at first, but then, as if it had pierced some kind of barrier, it suddenly became clear and real.
"Hmm..."Five Zangs and Food and Qi Essence Technique"? This is the basic method. Is there any other way to practice it at the same time?"
When the words fell, Chu Weiyang was still realizing the novel changes brought about by the dizziness. Hearing this, he was hesitating how to respond when suddenly, a buzzing sound came from his sleeves and robes, and then
, but the white jade poisonous snake was wrapped around Chu Weiyang's wrist, and its traces were revealed from the sleeves and robes.
Perhaps the Jade Snake itself was also wondering why the scene of heaven and earth had changed after a burst of smoke and dust had passed from the humid environment on the island just a moment ago.
The young man followed the buzzing sound and looked down. After taking a look at the white jade poisonous snake, he almost subconsciously raised his eyebrows in surprise, and then frowned tightly, as if he was looking at something too ordinary.
Chu Weiyang smiled shyly.
I fell into a fantasy for no reason, and even "dreamed" back to the mountain gate where Panwang Sect was at its peak in the past. If I could come into contact with the profound Dharma in the Panwang Sect's tradition from the fantasy, those are the same and can make people
Chu Weiyang successfully embarked on the path of refining evil...
But perhaps it was an unprovoked crisis that taught Chu Weiyang's last few clear thoughts to burst into unprecedented potential.
So, in silence, Chu Weiyang's voice also passed through the restriction of the magic sword and reached Chun Yuzhi's mind.
"Replying to the elder, I feel sorry for my master!
His old man... his name was Guo Dian, and he had lived a miserable life. In the days before he left, he didn't even have a good meal. However, despite this, he still passed on to me "Five Zangs and Food and Qi Essence".
Jue", taking his own life in exchange for mine.
Xu had calmed down, and at this moment, Chu Weiyang's mind became more active.
According to the road recorded in the jade talisman, as we walked towards Qingding Peak, the bluestone road in the mountains became more solemn and grand, and the number of people walking on it became sparse. In the second half of the journey, the long mountain road became more and more crowded.
Only Chu Weiyang and Chun Yuzhi were left.
"The general idea is correct, but Miss Zhi, your statement is still a bit reckless after all. This life is illusory, but this fate is real. There is no reason to waste your life so recklessly. After all, it is better to take one step at a time.
It is better to act cautiously and tentatively.
But the gratuitous feeling of happiness that he felt before still lingered in Chu Weiyang's heart.
In a trance, the young man felt uneasy, and even his usually sharp thoughts were almost as slow and sluggish as if they had been trapped in an ice cellar.
"What regret?"
"Chu...forget it, Junior Brother Chu, Wuqi is also poisonous, so you can barely be considered a monk of the Xuanming Danding lineage. During the past few days of watching the ceremony, you and fellow Taoist Chunyu will temporarily stay in the Xuanming Danding lineage. On top of Qingding Peak, there are Gen Zi Hall and Gui Zi Courtyard. The jade talisman in your hand is the key to the restriction. No matter how you move, it will be in the talisman."
Everything in front of us, the majestic mountain gate, the grand ceremony, countless monks, you, and me, all these seemingly living lives, including everything, including heaven and earth, are all illusory!
Not to mention the treasures of heaven and earth in this mountain gate, they are just a handful of soil and a handful of sand. Since they are illusory, they cannot be reflected in reality. But there is only one thing, Taoism! Dharma! This is it. The only real one!
The last words that the young Taoist said just now have a certain meaning! All cause and effect are destiny, and this elder may be your destiny this time! Anyway, give it a try, even if you give up this illusory life, it is worth it."
With a flip of his hand, the young man pushed the two jade charms in front of Chu Weiyang and Chun Yuzhi.
Such an opportunity was too precious. It was so precious that even before Chu Weiyang knew what the opportunity was, he was worried that he would not be able to enter the illusion a second time after the contact failed.
He didn't think too much and responded calmly.
They had never gotten to know each other in a normal way. Even though Chu Weiyang was used to the voices that occasionally sounded in his mind, he still couldn't adapt to Chun Yuzhi appearing in front of him as a real person.
Even if time changes again, your true body is still in the ancient cave in the outer sea. I can still communicate with your mind through the restriction of the magic sword. This is already a clear proof. You need to understand reality and illusion.
Between shock and fear, Chu Weiyang looked towards the old man almost subconsciously, and then he met those dark eyes again.
At that time, that will be a real regret!
Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly, an old voice sounded from behind Chu Weiyang.
After hearing Chu Weiyang's words, Chun Yuzhi seemed to have calmed down from some embarrassment and panic. She followed Chu Weiyang and added in a clear voice.
"Poverty Taoist Chu Weiyang, this fellow Taoist is Chun Yuzhi."
Beside the bluestone road, there is a thin old man, wearing a crimson robe and a crane feather cloak. His gray hair is spread down, flying in the mountain wind, full of unruly and wanton connotations.
A look of realization appeared on his face.
After all, the sect has been in too great decline. The tradition has been passed down to me, and there is almost no foundation left. Otherwise, I should have acted better. Now I am confused, my eyes are blank, and I have risked my life to test it. Although There’s nothing wrong with it, but what if you can’t enter the illusion again?”
Just as he was talking, the unruly young man lowered his body again and wrote down something in the book before asking the last question.
It was in such a gloomy atmosphere that suddenly, that clear voice sounded in Chu Weiyang's mind again.
"No wonder! I just wanted to ask, Taoist friend, this body of Qi is like an elixir, like a divine talisman, and the artistic conception of a little root marrow is ever-changing. It turns out that he is a descendant of the Qing Mo Dao and the seal script! Disrespect, disrespect!"
When the words fell, Chu Weiyang's expression suddenly changed. He looked at the unruly young man blankly, and then he became thoughtful.
Looking past Chun Yuzhi's figure, it seemed that he had not paid attention to the road under his feet for a long time. At first glance, the bluestone road led directly to a dense forest, and behind the dense forest, a steep solitary peak towered into the clouds.
In an instant, Chu Weiyang trembled with fear. In surprise, the young man staggered one step forward before turning around and looking.
While his mind was wandering, Chu Weiyang wrinkled his nose, raised his brows, and his eye circles were red. Thinking back to the pain that had once flowed through the meridians throughout his body, tears suddenly fell down.
The next moment, two spiritual lights were seen passing through the layers of mist, falling from the sky, and falling straight into the hands of the unruly young man.
"Hmm... you are also practicing the poisonous evil method, right? There is no need to explain it so carefully. I just need to take care of you, the spiritual snake, after you go up the mountain. Otherwise, something goes wrong and you are caught and stewed. You need not blame others. !Next question, who is this fellow Taoist who comes with you...?"
"Little baby, I asked you just now, what's the regret?"
There was no mention of Tingchang Mountain, but Chu Weiyang was still quite surprised when he heard the names of Danqing Yuanzong and Qingmo Daozhuan. He thought that this must be a secret inheritance, secretly pointing to the old mother Danxia. The origin of incense tradition.
Hearing these words, he was in a trance, as if thunder roared from another distant world, shocking Chu Weiyang's mind.
At a loss what to do.
"By the way! Junior Brother Chu, we can be considered a family. I will tell you something directly. Whether you are a snake breeder or an internal practitioner, you have practiced this poisonous evil method... which is relatively common. There are people on Qingding Peak. An elder, I can’t mention his name directly——
When we were at the foot of the mountain just now, the senior brother told me that, based on calculation, I should be of the Xuanming Danding lineage. I didn’t know what this meant, but I thought that senior brother Shengzong was right, so I Master, he should also be from the Xuanming Danding lineage.
"This is a good friend of mine. He practices the martial arts passed down from his family. Hearing that I was coming to the Holy Sect to observe the Incense Ceremony, I begged to come all the way because I wanted to see the world."
After hearing this and seeing Chu Weiyang's jade talisman arrive, he was about to say thank you, but the unruly young man suddenly seemed to have remembered something again and hurriedly said.
He looked back at the unruly young man.
Along the way, there was a long silence, almost like a silence that completely froze the embarrassing meaning.
He likes to wear a crimson robe, and in his eyes he cannot tolerate a fellow Taoist who has flaws in his teachings. He also has a temper that is, well, cruel. Therefore, I would like to advise that if possible, the junior brother should avoid the elder to avoid When I got it, I suddenly scolded him, and I don’t know why.”
After hearing this, Chu Weiyang turned his head and looked again.
Chu Weiyang didn't speak for a while. The thin old man seemed a little impatient and asked immediately.
The young man raised his head and glanced at Chu Weiyang, hesitated to speak, finally curled his lips, picked up a pen, wrote something on the book in front of him, and continued to ask.
It's just that Danqing Yuanzong... this name is so remote that it is much better than Panwang Yuanzong. He disappeared into the wilderness of southern Xinjiang an unknown number of years ago.
I don’t know if a child like me who grew up in the wild can really be considered a disciple of my sect, but my master is really...
"When I was a child, I used to read some stories recorded in the classics in the Shanmen Sutra Pavilion as storybooks. I remember very clearly that there was more than one story about the fate of an ordinary man and a fool who met an immortal in a dream and preached the gospel!
In this life, no matter what level of practice I have reached or what achievements I have made, I will never forget my master, his kindness, and the time when he was dying, leaning on the cold stone, and telling me about me. Panwang Shengzong’s longing expression.
"Then just record your name. Now, don't think about making up any lies. You must know that names carry destiny and destiny. In front of the gate of our sect's holy religion, every word and every word is in the cause and effect!"
He had once seen Chun Yuzhi's true soul. On that day, it could be said that he personally refined Chun Yuzhi's true soul into the magic sword. In the days that followed, he tortured, tortured, and tamed...
But it was this unrealistic feeling that taught Chu Weiyang to understand the difference between virtuality and reality.
Speaking of this, Chu Weiyang's voice was full of solemnity.
"My master left early, leaving behind only a copy of "Five Zangs and Food and Qi Jing Jie". In these years of hanging out together, I only accidentally came into contact with the poisonous evil cultivation method..."
The very familiar way of communication made Chu Weiyang subconsciously look to his side, staring at Chun Yuzhi's real figure and her tightly pursed thin lips. The young man suddenly felt that the reality and reality overlapped. A sense of trance before your eyes.
There was no difference between the pupils and the whites of the eyes. It was as if two ink beads were inlaid into the eye sockets. Seeing him like this, he didn't know where his eyes were falling. On the contrary, it made Chu Weiyang panic even more. Just looking at him like this, what did the old man look like? He can't see anything, and he seems to be able to see everything, even things that should be out of sight. He can easily see into people's thoughts!
When he turned his head to look again, next to Chu Weiyang, at some point, Chun Yuzhi stood there stiffly, as if his mind was blocked by something. Not to mention a change in his expression, even in his mind, There has been no sound for a long time.
It is said that he is from the Panwang Sect, but my understanding of the sect's sages and allusions is probably not as good as those of the long-lasting Taoist cultivators. I don't know if this elder of Qingding Peak really existed in ancient times, or if he is just here. Fictional characters transformed from the environment...
In the flash of lightning, Chu Weiyang's eyes were greeted by the old man's dark eyes.
As they looked at each other silently, Chun Yuzhi's clear eyes suddenly flashed with a look of panic, and then her whole body twisted unnaturally, avoiding Chu Weiyang's gaze.
"Thank you, senior brother. I understand the importance now. Thank you very much!"
——
Go higher and higher into the mountain.
Chun Yuzhi's face was clear and beautiful, perhaps because she was a little younger, and a little greenness was blended in it. When she looked carefully, there was a softness between her brows that she had never seen before.
Then this should be the place he has longed for all his life.
When the words fell, I saw the unruly young man suddenly pinched his fingertips, and saw a wisp of flames shining through. When he opened the book in front of him, the page recording Chu Weiyang and Chun Yuzhi was wrapped in time. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a wisp of blue smoke, and followed the non-existent wind, sweeping towards the clouds and mist in the mountains.
Among the three of them, it was the unruly young man who had the greater reaction at this moment.
"The family of the poor Taoist sect is good at some miscellaneous knowledge of talismans. It is said that my ancestor is a member of the Danqing Yuan sect and a member of the Qingmo Taoist seal lineage."
When I see this mountain, I think of my master. He was not able to see it with my own eyes. As a disciple, standing here now, I feel sorry for him for no reason!"
At the end of his words, Chu Weiyang almost shouted in a hoarse voice.
On the spot, he didn't know what he thought of. The old man suddenly lowered his head, blinked his dark eyes, and suddenly sighed to himself.
"Alas, the lineage of Xuan Ming Dan Cauldron... Patriarch, why are the people from my lineage always the ones who suffer the most in the Holy Sect..."
