After about 15 minutes, the Taoist priest spread his hands and said with a frustrated look: "It is indeed lost. All the original copies are gone."
"You know how to do it, just write it down."
"No, kid. You don't understand that everything operates according to its own rules. If something disappears, it means that it is at odds with the way of heaven and cannot be tolerated by heaven. I know, I remember, it just means that at that time, the way of heaven could tolerate it.
I put it down, but I take it out again at an inappropriate time. How much of a burden is this? I can’t bear it. I can only wait for the fate, the right time, the right place, the right people, and be born again. Alas, is it really so difficult to preach now?
"?" The last sentence was muttered by the Taoist priest himself, but I still heard it.
"It's okay, Master Dao. Our Chinese heritage has been passed down for thousands of years. If there is one missing one, wouldn't there be other books to supplement it? And you also said that modern people will also learn the essence of ancient culture. We are not stupid or stupid.
.If it really develops that day, I might be able to complete it myself.”
"That makes sense, kid. You're right. The way of heaven is to make up for what's missing and what's damaged. Maybe there will be a more complete meridian system that day. I'm blind here, haha."
"Then what's the next step to practice?"
"Let me tell you when I get on the train, we'll be there soon." The Taoist priest seemed to be happy again, and he pulled me and got off the train.
At the ticket gate in the train station, Chen Gang and the others were waiting for us. Everyone was chatting and laughing, then went to go through the formalities with their ID cards. Only the evil corpse was in trouble. He had a passport, or a foreign passport, so he couldn't go through the automatic ticket gate.
The system required a conductor to take him in. It seemed that the good corpse's failure to come was a foresight. As for Simon, who could stop him in the dark.
There are really not many people on the high-speed train, probably because it departs at night and arrives at night. Who doesn’t want to have a good night’s sleep if there’s nothing urgent?
As soon as I sat down, I started to trouble the Taoist priest again: "What about the cultivation you just mentioned?" I was naturally impatient and worried about my own affairs.
"Tell me first, are there any special places or bottlenecks in your cultivation process?" the Taoist priest asked me first.
"There is a place. Didn't we refine magic weapons last time? Then we thought about this so-called mind, when exactly it happened? When I was thinking about something in my mind, who was talking? Is it me?", I
After thinking about it, I found that there is no bottleneck yet, but there are still many things that I don’t understand.
"Huh? Boy, how did you come up with this?"
"I suddenly thought of it when I was controlling the Liyang Pearl with my mind."
"Your cultivation method is a bit different from others. It is difficult for others to kill three corpses, but you killed them as soon as you came up. And most people only consider the issues of mind and voice after they have reached a relatively high level of cultivation. You
I’m starting to pay attention now. I really don’t know if I’m calling you a genius or a fool.” The Taoist priest narrowed his eyes and smiled at me.
"I can understand being a genius, but why do you call me a fool?" Is this a compliment or a scolding?
"The more you know about many things, the easier it is to be misled. When you don't know how to distinguish between true and false, right and wrong, false becomes true."
"Didn't you tell me to think more about myself?"
"Oh, that's right. Everyone has their own destiny. What I tell you is my opinion and what I have verified. You don't have to listen to everything and believe it. You can treat yourself as an ancient Qi practitioner.
There have never been pioneers before. If you go your own way, you will have a brighter future." The Taoist priest suddenly talked about ancient times, which surprised me. After all, those are things that have no records.
"Did the ancient qigong masters find their own way? Then what do these inheritances now, including the sect you founded, mean?" I asked in confusion.
"In ancient times, practitioners were not called practitioners, but became Qi Refiners. Some of them understood the Tao in this world, and some extracted spiritual energy from nature for their own use. At that time, there was no good or evil, no right or wrong, as long as they could develop their own
Potential, being able to understand the Dao means you are correct. Later, gradually, some people started to accuse others of being wrong or right, perhaps because of competition for resources, or perhaps because of a lack of understanding of the Way of Heaven, and disputes arose. Later, as time went on,
Some people died in the battle, and their cultivation methods were lost. But no matter who they are, as long as they are ancient Qi practitioners, they must have their own unique features. Do you know why?" The Taoist priest turned his head and looked at me.
.
"Because...they all came to enlightenment on their own?", I can roughly guess it.
"That's right, kid, I saw you right. Indeed, people at that time did not have many teachers, so they did not confine their understanding of the Tao to a certain sect or a certain scripture. And at that time, they mostly learned from nature.
If you understand directly, if you have a high level of understanding, you will understand more. There will be no language problems where a slight mistake can make a difference a thousand miles away."
"So you mean, let me learn from nature like the ancients did?"
"That's right and wrong. You can read and understand what has been summarized, but you can't believe it all. You should read more, feel more, understand more, and think more. Some paths are only suitable for you. Don't be fooled.
Someone with a higher realm than you has led astray, and his way may not be suitable for you, do you understand?"
"I understand, but can you tell me what's going on in my mind? I want to hear the thoughts of predecessors."
"The mind is a very complicated thing, let's call it a thing. I didn't take the path of killing three corpses and becoming a Taoist. I followed the pure Yang body practice to accumulate merit and eliminate karma, so my soul has always been intact.
.I think the mind is our soul, which is the soul of heaven, the soul of the earth, and the human soul, and it is most likely the voice of the human soul talking to itself. The so-called manipulation of the mind is also controlled by the soul."
"Where are the heavenly soul and the earthly soul?" I remembered that Taiyi Tianzun said that my soul was incomplete, so it would be best to ask more questions.
"The heavenly soul controls good, and the earthly soul controls evil. After death, the heavenly soul will return to heaven to repay good deeds, and after the death of earthly soul, the soul will return to the underworld to repay evil. This is how a person's life burden is created, that is, karma. The world of mortals
Souls and earth souls cannot cultivate by themselves. That is to say, no matter how many good or bad things they have done, they will write it down and report it later. But the human soul is different. After death, the human soul should actually be enshrined in the ancestor hall. This is also
The reason why we Central Plains people have family cemeteries and ancestral halls after death. And as far as I know, not only the Central Plains people, but also many ancient civilizations have family tombs. It’s just that we Central Plains people understand it more thoroughly and divide the souls more clearly.
But the unity of other cultures is called the soul." Taoist Master Jue Xing is really knowledgeable. It seems that living for a thousand more years is really beneficial.
