The first three levels of Taixuan Tianqing Dao: gathering energy, condensing elixir, and building foundation are the foundation for cultivating immortality.
Especially the first level of "Qi Gathering", although it is just an introductory lesson, everyone from beginners to golden bodies must pay attention to it.
If the speed of gathering Qi is not fast enough, then the elixir condensation will not be successful.
The criterion for determining whether one can move from "gathering energy" to "condensing elixir" is how much of the three elements of heaven and earth are gathered within a certain period of time.
When condensing the elixir, a large amount of real energy needs to be consumed. If the speed and quality of the energy gathering are not high and the supply exceeds the demand, then the inner elixir cannot be condensed smoothly.
Previously, Jiang Mier asked Li Xiaochen to do the task of copying talismans and seals, not only to help him understand more mantras, but also to increase his speed of gathering energy.
"Your current Qi gathering speed is not enough to carry out the 'Elixir Condensation' stage of practice." Jiang Mi'er took out a pen from her bag and said to Li Xiaochen: "Take off your clothes."
"You, what do you want to do? I don't sell myself as an artist." Li Xiaochen protected his chest with his hands and leaned back subconsciously.
Jiang Mi'er chuckled and said, "Even if you pay me back in vain, I don't want it. Don't worry about it. Take off your clothes quickly."
Li Xiaochen glanced at Jiang Mier suspiciously: "Are you sure you don't have any inappropriate thoughts about my strong and attractive male body?"
"Do you want to take it off? If you don't take it off, I will take it off for you."
"You really have those dirty thoughts!"
"Stop wearing it. If you're a man, take it off right away!"
"Hey, Jiang Mi'er, what are you doing? You, you, you, don't come here...ah! You're such a witch, you're so arrogant! Wow! You're such a pervert, you actually tore it to pieces! This dress is very expensive
, two pieces for eight yuan! You are trampling on my dignity as a man...Okay, I know my pectoralis major is very sexy, but please don't rub it in such a perverted way, okay? Please
Hey... Hey, you’re still touching, don’t you understand Chinese... No, no, ya baa dadi Ku da thi (please stop)~"
Jiang Mier used a pen to draw a very complicated secret seal on Li Xiaochen's Tanzhong point. Then she made a seal on her chest with one hand and slapped Li Xiaochen's chest with one hand.
I saw the secret seal flashing with soft white light. In the blink of an eye, all the white light was absorbed into the secret seal painted with thousands of years of deep ink.
"Why are you calling it so exaggerated? You're going to die." Jiang Mi'er pinched Li Xiaochen's stomach and rolled her eyes at him, "What if someone who didn't know about it overheard me and thought I did something to you?"
Woolen cloth."
Li Xiaochen was lying on the sofa, covering the two points on his chest, with a miserable expression: "Since I was a child, except for my mother, no woman has been so bold and bold as to attack my breasts..."
"Okay, don't pretend to be innocent. I've touched it, but I'll be responsible for you. Get up." Jiang Mi'er put the pen away and said, "This secret seal has been passed down from generation to generation in my mother's family.
The 'Collected True Seal' has the effect of gathering true essence. You can usually store the remaining true essence in this secret seal. When you need true essence, it will automatically release it to help you."
Li Xiaochen sat up: "In other words, this set of true seals is a warehouse for storing true essence?"
"It can be understood this way. Now you try to inject the true essence into the Ji Zhen Seal, and then try your best to gather the three elements of heaven and earth. This will allow you to practice gathering qi without wasting the true essence. When you become proficient in gathering qi, you can
Now I can let you try the pill condensation."
"It's such a good thing, why didn't you paint it for me in the first place?"
Jiang Mi'er gave Li Xiaochen a big roll of her eyes: "The True Seal Collection is a secret that cannot be passed on to anyone other than close relatives. I have no choice but to do it. If time was not tight, how could I have given you an advantage?"
"Yes, you are the best to me."
"Then should you repay me?"
Li Xiaochen quickly tightened his belt and begged: "Leave your lower body for me, heroine..."
Jiang Mier kicked him off the sofa: "Who wants to see your lower body? There are so many black hairs."
Li Xiaochen turned pale with fright and picked up his clothes to cover his crotch: "You, when did you see that? Oh - I know. You actually took advantage of my sleep to peek at my charming sleeping posture! How despicable.
!”
Jiang Mier spat: "Where did you think you were? I'm talking about your leg hair. It's black and ugly."
"Tch, what do you know? This is a symbol of a man's glory. Haven't you heard? In a man's life, even if he is struck by lightning, there are three major things that he must do."
Jiang Mier asked curiously: "What three things? Let's talk about it."
"Listen carefully. A man who has never shaved, never cut his nose hair, or grown the enchanting leg hair, then his life is destined to be incomplete."
Jiang Mier chuckled and said: "Shaving, cutting nose hair, and growing leg hair, are these the three major things that a man must do?"
Li Xiaochen said seriously: "Please allow me to correct you. It's not the growth of leg hair, but the growth of 'sadly ecstasy'...leg hair."
Jiang Mier chuckled: "You men are really ambitious. Start gathering your energy quickly and don't act poor there."
Putting aside the joke, Li Xiaochen also knew that the situation was not optimistic, so he sat cross-legged, first injected his own true energy into the Jizhen Seal, and then followed the method to gather the energy.
Ji Zhenyin swallows the true energy very quickly. It absorbs it almost as soon as it encounters it.
Gathering Qi, the introductory skill of Taixuan Tianqing Dao, focuses on gathering vitality and consolidating the true essence of the human body.
Practicing diligently can regulate the yin and yang of the human body and develop potential.
After practice, the four points of Baihui, Huiyin, Shenque and Mingmen will form a circulatory respiratory system where yin and yang converge.
The subtleties can only be experienced by cultivators.
If a person has sufficient vitality, he will naturally be free from all diseases and even the amount of food he consumes will be reduced.
This is the so-called "people who are full of vitality do not think about food." People who are full of vitality do not think about food.
There was a famous old monk Guangqin in Taiwan in modern times. He did not eat staple food for decades and only ate fruits for his meals. He was known as the "fruit master".
After the age of eighty, all his teeth fell out and he could not eat fruits, so he lived on beef and juice.
This accomplished monk lived until he was ninety-five years old, without any illness or suffering, and passed away peacefully.
He is a perfect example of "being too angry to eat".
The human body is like a car. Some cars are fuel-efficient, while others consume fuel.
A fuel-efficient car does not require much fuel to maintain its activities.
In a fuel-guzzling car, breakfast, lunch and dinner are not enough. You also need morning tea, afternoon tea and late night snacks. You even have to eat eight meals a day.
So what kind of people save fuel and what kind of people consume fuel?
People who have a pure mind, few delusions, and abundant vitality save fuel.
On the contrary, people who have random thoughts and delusional thoughts all day long and lack the three treasures of energy, energy and spirit waste gas.
In Shushan Mountain in Sichuan, there are longevity practitioners who have lived hundreds of years. They only need one day of gold every day, which is enough.
The "Zengyi Agama Sutra" describes five kinds of supramundane food. One of them is "Zen Yue as Food".
Zen joy, as the name suggests, means that those who enter meditation are happy.
This kind of person does not need worldly grains and food, but only feeds on the joy of Zen.
Gathering qi can certainly replenish your vitality. But if your consumption exceeds your intake, your vitality will still be insufficient.
Therefore, reducing delusions is also a required course for practitioners.
With the help of Ji Zhenyin, Li Xiaochen, who used to reach a saturated state after gathering Qi for a while, was able to continue practicing.
In conjunction with the cross mantra taught by Jiang Mier, he slowly entered a state of emptiness where he gave up his delusions and thought less and less.
Last time, in order to save Jiang Mier who was seriously injured, Li Xiaochen rushed to the rescue and did some Qi gathering exercises in a muddle, but failed to get the real key.
I have been copying talismans and seal scripts for the past few days, but I am just like a blind bug, practicing blindly.
It wasn't until today that he realized the beauty of "Qi Gathering".
As soon as the delusional thoughts disappear, the speed of gathering the three elements of heaven and earth immediately increases exponentially. The vitality is also sucked into the body faster and faster.
The purer the mind is, the closer one can get to the way of heaven and realize the feeling of being one with nature.
But the delusions could not be eliminated immediately. After persisting for a while, Li Xiaochen felt that the delusions were coming back again.
He felt like an isolated and helpless commander sitting in a military tent. His delusions were like a large number of rebels surrounding him from all directions.
The enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered, and the situation is dire. We really want to kill the thief, but we are unable to save ourselves.
Just when the delusional thoughts couldn't be suppressed, I suddenly heard Jiang Mier say from the side: "Ignore the delusional thoughts, let them run and die on their own, just focus on the mantra of the cross. Recite it clearly in your heart and in your ears.
Hear it clearly."
As soon as these words entered his ears, Li Xiaochen immediately put them into practice as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.
He no longer suppressed those endless delusions, but focused all his energy on reciting the mantra of the cross silently.
I don't know how long it took, but Li Xiaochen found that his delusions had greatly reduced.
In fact, the principle of the method mentioned by Jiang Mi'er is exactly what is stated in the Yuantong Chapter of Mahasthamaprapta: Reciting the Buddha's Name: All six roots are absorbed, pure thoughts are followed one after another, and samadhi is achieved. This is the first.
Among the six faculties of people in the Saha world, the ear faculties are the most powerful. Therefore, those who use their ears to listen carefully are the most extraordinary ones.
It's just that what Li Xiaochen recited was the Cross Mantra of Taixuan Tianqingdao. The chapter on Yuantong talks about the method of reciting the Buddha's name with perfect ears and ears.
However, the three schools of thought, Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism, are basically the same.
It's just that the three companies are targeting people at different levels.
Confucianism is like a primary school, teaching people the principles of life in order to become a gentleman in the world;
Taoism is like a middle school, which records the cause and effect of man and nature, and teaches people to change their lives and become immortals;
Buddhism is like a university, which allows people to fully understand the truth of the universe and life, escape from the six paths, fully realize Bodhi, and escape suffering and achieve happiness.
If one can understand clearly, different paths lead to the same destination, and there will be no hindrance to harmony.
The end point of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism is the same.
When I finished the Qi gathering practice, it was already dark.
Jiang Mier knelt and sat beside the coffee table, lying crookedly on the edge of the coffee table and fell asleep. It seemed that she had been guarding Li Xiaochen before.
Li Xiaochen pushed Jiang Mier: "Go to bed and sleep. Aren't you tired after sleeping like this?"
Jiang Mier was completely unaware, obviously sleeping deeply.
Li Xiaochen stared at the sleeping beauty and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: A beauty is a beauty. She can even sleep so beautifully.
Li Xiaochen had too many questions to ask this beauty who had so many secrets.
After thinking about it carefully, he remembered that his life had undergone earth-shaking changes since he met Jiang Mier that night.
He was supposed to be a peaceful and diligent work-study student as a poor student, but he actually got into a lot of trouble. Now he is notorious in the school.
In order to help his employer achieve his goal, he must first practice hard, escort Jiang Mi'er to meet some great elder, and then complete his fiancé's mission.
Perhaps during this period, we have to avoid the killer's deadly pursuit, break through the numerous traps set by the other party, and smash the sinister conspiracy of family relatives...
Oh my god, how could such a ridiculous and thrilling clichéd plot exist in reality? And it also happened to him.
Li Xiaochen had a wry smile on his face, feeling that he didn't understand Jiang Mier at all.
Whether it is her family background or her changeable personality, she has always been a mystery.
Maybe that person is right.
an (translated as: "Women are beautiful because of secrets" or "Secrets make women more feminine").
Jiang Mier is undoubtedly this kind of person. She is like the white clouds in the sky, with no fixed form and unpredictable changes.
You can only look up at it but not touch it. Even if you try your best to get close and touch it, you will soon find that everything is just a cloud.
Li Xiaochen shook his head: Forget it, don't think too much. If you can do it, try your best to do it; if you can't do it, you can only let it happen.
Gently picking up Jiang Mi'er, Li Xiaochen put her on the bed and covered her with a quilt.
He couldn't help but look at her a few more times.
At this moment, Jiang Mier had a sweet smile on her face, as if she had dreamed of something good.
Seeing a bit of cunning in her smile, Li Xiaochen smiled: This ghost girl usually likes to make fun of others. Does she want to bully others in her dream?
Hey, wait a minute, could it be me that she tortured in her dream?
Just when this terrible thought came to his mind, Li Xiaochen rolled his eyes, chuckled, and said to the sleeping Jiang Mier: "It's you who teased me every time. This time it's my turn to take revenge."
After rummaging around to find Jiang Mier's makeup box, Li Xiaochen started to "make up" her with a smirk on his face.
More than an hour later, Li Xiaochen was finally done.
He looked at Jiang Mi'er from side to side for a long time, and almost couldn't help laughing: This is definitely the pinnacle of my amateur career. Jiang Mi'er, you are waiting for a surprise tomorrow morning.
At this moment, Jiang Mier's cell phone placed on the coffee table rang.
Her mobile phone has dual SIM cards and dual standby.
Li Xiaochen remembered that his mobile phone card was also inside, so he went over to take a look.
Tang Yao's name appeared on the caller ID.
"Hey, Li Xiaochen? Someone is going to die! Come to school quickly!"
