I knew before that Yicheng was indeed extraordinary, but I really didn't expect him to be so fierce! After just half a year, I felt that I had made great progress, but compared to this, it seems that I have become unlearned.
Fortunately, Hu Xiangu's body was not seriously injured. The eldest brother extracted her soul and sealed it in the talisman paper. The method was very simple. Just use a silver needle to take a drop of blood from her forehead, wrap it with talisman paper, write a talisman to seal it, and finally pass a red line through the middle. If Hu Xiangu dies, the red line will burn, otherwise if the red line burns, Hu Xiangu will also die.
This method is very similar to the cracking of the jade slip seen in the video material. In fact, the principle is the same, because when a person dies and his soul enters the underworld, the yin energy will stimulate the yang energy on the jade and the red line, achieving the effect of burning or breaking. But if we talk about the difference between the two, talisman paper is definitely more economical than jade.
When I thought of the death of the whole village, I couldn't help but clench the copper coin in my hand and said with gritted teeth: "Second Brother, the 397 lives of the whole village, was it done by the Jiujiu Sect?"
"It's not particularly clear, but when we first entered the village, we saw people from the Jiujiu Sect collecting corpse qi. If it wasn't them, who else could it be?" Mao Shi said thoughtfully.
Gao Hu also said angrily: "The people of the Chrysanthemum Sect really deserve to die. They dropped a dead person on the roof a few days ago, and this time they killed the whole village. Doesn't the government care?"
Mao Shi sighed and said: "Death may not be caused by people, but they are best at locking the Seven Mysterious Gates and setting up a killing situation. Within three days, anyone who walks out of the village or walks in will die."
Mao Shi was right about this. Feng Shui masters don't need to face you to kill people. They just need to pretend to be passers-by and find the Seven Mysterious Gates like sightseeing, and then make a fuss at the location of the Seven Mysterious Gates, or set up a Feng Shui evil situation to kill people.
I took a long breath. My Taoism must be perfected by myself, because those beasts can transfer retribution through the spirit-sending technique, so that God can do nothing about them. In this case, I must do it myself until I avenge the villagers of Zhang's shop, and then I will perfect my Taoism.
My body was shaking with excitement. Hu Zongyan suddenly walked in from outside the door and sighed, saying, "I searched Sun Degui's soul, but his mind was blank and I couldn't find anything. Otherwise, I'll go to the underworld to ask."
"Goodbye, elder brother. Since you are from the Jiujiu sect, you must be separated from me. I will perfect my Tao heart by myself. There is a difference between yin and yang." I suddenly thought of Bao Gong again and said in a deep voice, "Besides, people may not tell you about me if I go there."
Hu Zongyan sighed and said, "It's really a sin. The three of us brothers will perform rituals for the dead later to eliminate their karma."
"Okay, I'll drive to buy paper money for you." Gao Hu said from the side.
It is indeed necessary to prepare some paper money, ingots, incense, and tributes for salvation. Gao Hu prepared all of these. Hu Xiangu was recuperating in the house. The three of us brothers left the room. But when we stood side by side in the sun, I couldn't help but turn my head to look at Hu Zongyan, thinking about the doubts in my heart, and I asked: "Big Brother, can you tell me what Tao is?"
Big Brother didn't say anything, and the dazzling sunlight made him squint his eyes, but now I am really confused, Hu Xiangu and Yicheng's discussion of Tao, the comparison between the people of Jiuzhou and Zhang's shop, and the possibility that my Tao heart, which has cracked, needs to be filled with human life.
Everything is contrary to my thoughts, because I think that good and evil will always cycle, and good people will be rewarded!
Hu Zongyan suddenly raised his head and pointed to the sky and said to me: "Laozi once said that the Tao is great, the sky is great, the earth is great, and people are also great. People are one of them and can be equal to the sky, the earth, and the Tao. People follow the earth, the earth follows the sky, the sky follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature. So you just need to be yourself, because you are the Tao. Just like I comprehend the truth with the way of a gentleman, and Mao Shihou comprehends the way of chivalry. As for your Tao, you have to find it by yourself."
Yes, whether it is Buddhism or Taoism, it is people-oriented. The words of the eldest brother can be regarded as solving my previous doubts. The so-called Tao is to do what you think is right. If you deserve to die, then I kill you and it is the Tao.
The 397 lives of Zhang's shop are human lives and there is no difference between the billions of lives in Jiuzhou. I should go to avenge Si Ya and the others, but I can't see the death of the real dragon and the arrival of a great disaster. Therefore, my Tao is the 'righteous Tao' that cuts through all obstacles. What I do must be right. If I think I am wrong, my Tao heart will be completely destroyed.
Bathed in the sun, the cracks in my Tao heart yesterday seemed to have recovered. If I can't figure it out, I will be completely trapped in the small circle of karma in the future, entangled in whether the bad guys will be punished by heaven, anxious all day long, doubting the way of heaven, and finally my Tao heart will be destroyed and nothing will be accomplished.
But today, when I stood on the ground and understood, I understood why Yicheng blindfolded his eyes and why Hu Xiangu couldn't break his Buddha heart. That's because Yicheng's heart has long been as solid as a rock. Any practitioner in the world, if he doubts his Tao for a long time, will eventually find it difficult to see his true heart.
I bowed to Hu Zongyan: "I understand."
"Congratulations, junior brother, on your enlightenment." Hu Zongyan said with a smile.
Looking around, I found that it was already dark, and I hurriedly asked him what happened? The elder brother told me that I had stood quietly for 16 hours since I asked him the question. It was already four o'clock in the morning of the next day.
The morning sun rose slowly, which meant that a new day had come. Looking around Zhang's shop, the grievances here had disappeared. Only then did I know that the elder brother had already saved this place yesterday. And he was afraid that something would happen to me, so he stood with me all night.
I was moved in my heart. There are many legends about the enlightenment of the ancients. In ancient times, there was a chess fan named Wang Zhi in Quzhou. One day, he went to the mountains to chop wood. He saw two people playing chess, so he put his axe on the side and sat aside to watch the game. The two people played chess while eating peaches, and broke off half a peach for Wang Zhi. Wang Zhi ate and watched. Before he finished eating, the peach pit thrown on the ground had sprouted and grown into a peach tree. At this time, the two old men reminded him, "Why don't you go back? Look, your axe handle is rotten."
Wang Zhi realized something was wrong and ran home in a hurry, but when he got home, he realized that eighty years had passed! He watched immortals play chess and comprehended the way of chess. He spent eighty years in one night. Later, the mountain was called Lan Ke Mountain, and now it has become the hometown of Chinese Go.
It was a good fortune that I could understand it in one night. Otherwise, even if I stood for three or five months, I would have missed a lot of things, let alone decades.
"Junior brother has excellent talent. Mao Shi spent a year in the wall-facing room in Maoshan to comprehend the Tao, but junior brother got it in one night in the deep mountains. This is a great fortune for Maoshan." Hu Zongyan looked happy.
I asked the eldest brother, what is the difference between comprehending the Tao and not comprehending the Tao?
He told me that entering the Tao is like touching the threshold of the Tao. Although there will be no change, it is invincible in terms of mind. No matter who it is, the magic is controlled by the mind. If the mind is not strong, the power will naturally not be strong.
It's like two people doing business. Compared with the person with a firm mind and courage to move forward and the person with a floating mind and timidity, the former's achievements will definitely be greater than the latter.
"Thank you, Senior Brother, for your advice." I was really happy. I was about to go to my grandfather. To be able to realize the truth at a critical moment was like a timely help to me.
"Hurry up and get on the road. I observed the sky yesterday and saw the cloud dragon energy moving southward and circling the top of the peak. I think Senior Li is almost here." Senior Brother's eyes were very solemn.
I also understand that for more people, the real dragon symbolizes endless life and wealth.
The wind was rising and the world was thundering.
When I turned around, I saw Mao Shi, Gao Hu, and Hu Xiangu standing by the door. Gao Hu spoke first: "Yesterday I thought you had a stroke, but fortunately you are fine. Yesterday I received a call from the Special Service Department, notifying all people to capture the real dragon alive. They know you are with me, and the order has been issued."
The most feared thing is official intervention. Practitioners are just people, and they cannot resist the state machine. For this reason, I looked at Hu Zongyan and said, "Big Brother, if the government intervenes, does the real dragon have to be handed over to the country?" Only I know that the real dragon is seriously injured, and there is not much time left for the dragon and the people of Jiuzhou. "
I was very entangled in my heart. I dare not tell them about the deeds of Jiulongmen. If the government takes the dragon away, I will fight for it? Obviously it is impossible.
"It's okay. Those strange people and things are not easy to deal with. They say one thing and another behind the scenes. When you see it, you will understand what I mean." Hu Zongyan said.
We packed our bags, left the village, and sat in Gao Hu's SUV. He said while driving: "I like this kind of exciting feeling. Real dragon? What does a dragon look like?"
"Just as you think. "I said.
On the way, Gao Hu received another call. As expected by the senior brother, my grandfather appeared in Jilin and rushed to Changbai Mountain immediately. We got the exact news, and Gao Hu's car flew again.
According to the guess on the phone, we didn't have much time left. The call from the Special Service Office was made at five in the morning. If we mobilized the border guards in Yanbian and blocked Changbai Mountain on the premise of ensuring that it would not be mistaken by North Korea as a military activity, I estimated that it would take more than three hours, but the vanguard would arrive in an hour. And I must rush to Changbai Mountain to find my grandfather before the soldiers with live ammunition, and try every means to send the real dragon back to Tianhe Longmen. Time is running out.
Gao Hu also took out all the cars. No matter what the road was, as long as the car could drive, he would drive forward. It was just over ten minutes, and suddenly, the oil pan was stuck and leaked!
"Damn, this stone is still moving! "Gao Hu pushed open the car door.
The car couldn't move anymore, so we had to get off one after another. Standing at the foot of the mountain, the surrounding scenery was pleasant, but for me, I wanted to fly over the mountain right away!
