farmhouse.
Chen Yun's heart skipped a beat after receiving the prototype cultivation method of "Eight-Nine Mysterious Skills".
There may be many aspects of this cultivation method that conflict with inner alchemy, but there are many things worth learning from.
Even after a rough inspection, Chen Yun could find that this "treasure book" cultivation method was very similar to "Laozi Xiang'er Commentary", both of which were real Dafa.
If "Laozi Xiang'er Zhu" focuses on external nature, then this mysterious skill is somewhat similar to inner alchemy, paying more attention to the free inner self.
Because the name of the practice was not specified, Chen Yun tentatively called this practice the Eight-Nine Mysterious Technique.
Erlang Shen was in a very good mood, "After Sanlang recovers, I will pass on this great method to him. In this way, even if his body is severely injured again in the future, he can recover with this method. It's a pity that his body is not complete now and he cannot Practice my Xuan Gong, otherwise the appearance of your body will be imprinted in the memory of your soul. Even if you succeed in practicing Xuan Gong, what will be restored will still be a broken branch and willow body, which is not much different from now."
Guo Ya smiled straightly and said: "This is Sanlang's fate. He suffered a serious injury and received such a great law inheritance from his second brother. We are not so lucky."
"He almost died physically and mentally. If the second brother hadn't come forward, he might have been wiped out at this moment." Zhou Cang glanced at Guo Ya and said, "Are you willing to take such a big risk?"
Guo Ya was speechless and didn't know how to respond for a moment.
Marshal E, King Da, Sayinkun, Huang Maotongzi and others laughed.
Before Chen Yun had time to take a closer look at the Xuan Gong, when he heard these words, he vaguely heard something and asked tentatively: "Second brother, what do you mean, this Xuan Gong needs to be memorized in the soul to restore the body?"
Erlang Shen nodded slightly and said: "Exactly, this mysterious skill was created by me. I first cultivated the Yuan Shen, and then let the Yuan Shen remember all the structures of the physical body, and gradually replaced them with divine power, and then simulated all things in the world. , in a true sense, I can change whatever I want, even the heaven and earth. Of course, I can change it at will at the moment. As for the heaven and earth, Zhao can’t do it for the time being.”
Speaking of the laws of heaven and earth, the Taoist theory of cultivating immortals is highly advocated.
But the method here is not a magical power, but a theory of cultivating immortals.
Lao Tzu said in the Tao Te Ching: "Man follows the earth, earth follows the heaven, heaven follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature."
This sentence refers to the laws of heaven and earth.
Taoists believe that the Great Dao exists everywhere, and the natural changes in the entire world are the trajectory of the Great Dao.
As long as we act according to the natural laws of change of heaven and earth, we can attain the Tao and achieve positive results.
Chen Yun naturally understood that the "Dharma of the sky and the earth" mentioned by Erlang Shen did not mean that Sun Wukong and Erlang Shen turned into tens of thousands of feet tall bodies in "Journey to the West", but that they transformed themselves into nature, which represented "the truth of being in harmony with Tao". ", can be as great as heaven and earth.
Of course, the body becomes tens of thousands of feet tall, which is simply a piece of cake in the Taoist "Dharma, Heaven, Image and Earth".
It can be said that the so-called laws of heaven and earth in "Journey to the West" are not even child's play compared to the laws of heaven and earth spoken by Erlang Shen at this moment.
Chen Yun felt relaxed and happy after hearing this, and asked for advice: "Second brother, I wonder what the name of your mysterious skill is?"
Erlang Shen was startled, "Because Xuan Gong was created by me, and I have been the only one practicing it, so I have never thought about giving it a name. If you have to choose a name, my real name is Zhao Yu, and now I have attained the truth. How about just casually calling it "Zhao Zhenren Xuan Gong"?"
Chen Yun smiled and said: "This method was created by my second brother. It is not inappropriate to call it "Zhao Zhenren Xuan Gong", but it does not reflect the mystery of Xuan Gong."
"Brother Chen, what do you mean by this?"
"Do you have a better name?"
Guo Yazhi, Zhou Cang and others asked curiously.
Erlang Shen was also very interested and said: "Brother Xian, do you have a good reputation? Let's talk to my brother about it."
Chen Yun took a sip of wine, smacked his lips and said, "In Taoism, nine is the most respected, which represents infinity, and eight represents the sum of man and nature. In my opinion, it would be better to name this mystical skill "Eight". "Nine Mysterious Techniques" means that this mysterious technique is all-encompassing and infinitely powerful. Second brother, what do you think?"
"Eight-Nine Mysterious Gong?" Erlang Shen's eyes lit up, he clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Okay! This is a very good name! Doesn't the Eight-Nine Mysterious Gong sound more powerful than Zhao Zhenren's Mysterious Gong?"
Guo Yazhi laughed loudly and said: "Brother Chen's quick thinking has given his second brother Xuan Gong a good reputation. Come on, I'll give you a glass of wine."
Chen Yun and Guo Yazhi had a drink.
"How well you get this name!"
"Isn't it? The Eight-nine Mysterious Skills sound so impressive!"
"Brother Chen is worthy of being the supreme master of Zhengyang Zhenren. His thinking is so quick!"
Marshal E, King Da, Sayinkun, Huang Maotongzi and others were all amazed.
Perhaps because of this incident, Chen Yun became closer to Erlang Shen and the Seven Saints of Meishan, and the banquet lasted from noon to evening.
During this period, there was not enough food and wine to eat, and ghosts such as ghosts holding swords and slaves kept adding more food to everyone.
Seeing the sparse stars rising into the sky, Chen Yun, who was very drunk, was slightly sobered up by the wind. He stood up and burped, and with his tongue tied, he held his hands and said: "Brothers...brothers, little...little brother, I'm sorry. Jiulin, now...it's time to go back to the mountain, otherwise my teacher will be worried."
"Brother Chen, how did you get back to the mountain when you were so drunk?" Erlang Shen took his hand and said, "Why don't you stay with me this night?"
Chen Yun waved his hand and refused: "My mentor will be worried about my little brother, so...it is inconvenient to stay here."
Guo Ya straightened up and said, "Shall I take Brother Chen back to Qingcheng Mountain?"
Although Chen Yun was very drunk, he was still somewhat conscious at the moment. He said unsteadily: "No... no, no... I went back within a few miles, and I can still sober up."
Seeing him in this state and refusing to be sent back to the mountain by the Seven Saints of Meishan, Erlang Shen thought for a while and said: "Forget it, since Brother Chen wants to go back to the mountain by himself, the elder brother has to listen to it, but you drank wine My whole body is so soft that I may not be able to cast my spells and go on my way. I have a mount that has been surrendered in the past two years. If you ride it back, I will treat it as a gift to you from my brother."
Chen Yun still wanted to refuse.
But Erlangshen said he was worried about letting him go alone, and insisted on giving him a mount.
Afterwards, Zhou Cang went to the backyard and brought out a beautiful tiger.
Erlang Shen said to the big insect: "Bad beast, today I will give you to Brother Chen as a mount, and you will be blessed with good fortune in the future. Remember your master's appearance clearly, and do not slack off on his orders, otherwise I will definitely kill you." Skin!"
The big and beautiful tiger knelt down on the ground in fear and said: "I will obey King Chicheng's decree. The little demon will definitely serve his good master without slacking off."
Erlang Shen then looked at Chen Yun and said, "Brother, this evil beast is a fairy born from the aggregation of spiritual energy from mountains and rivers. Its own cultivation level is only similar to that of a middle-level mage. There is nothing special about it. It is only better because of its strong legs and ability to walk." In the meantime, it can travel ten thousand miles a day with its walking steps, so you can ride it and take care of yourself. If you can attain enlightenment and become an immortal in the future, don’t forget the hard work it has done for you."
Chen Yun saw the majesty and majesty of the tiger and felt happy in his heart, "Okay! Good! Thank you, second brother, for the reward!"
The evil beast hurriedly lay down on the ground and lowered his body so that Chen Yun could ride on it.
Chen Yun said goodbye to Erlang Shen and the Seven Sages of Meishan. Immediately, he rode on the tiger's back. After pointing out the way back to the mountain, he fell asleep on the tiger's back.
So much so that he didn't notice how he returned to the mountains.
…
The next day.
Chen Yun was sleeping soundly because of drinking, when Zhang Jiwen heard a loud noise in his ears.
"Brother! Brother!"
"You promised to take me down the mountain to play, but don't be a swindler, don't be a scumbag!"
Along with Zhang Jiwen's noise, Chen Yun felt his body being shaken, and then slowly opened his eyes.
He looked around in confusion and found that he was in his bedroom. Zhang Jiwen was still standing in front of the bed with a dissatisfied face and a small mouth. He quickly struggled to get up and said: "Brother Ji Wen, why am I here?"
Zhang Jiwen said with a speechless expression: "Where else could you be if you weren't here? Get dressed quickly. I checked in with Zhengyang Zhenren and he promised to let you take me down the mountain."
Chen Yun only remembered that he drank and had fun with Erlang Shen and others yesterday, and had no idea what happened next.
I was thinking hard at this moment, but I still couldn't remember what happened after I was drunk.
It's just that yesterday Zhang Jiwen made great efforts to surrender Ji Xin and the three hundred men. He had promised to take him down the mountain, but Chen Yun couldn't break his promise.
While putting on his clothes, he said, "Wait for me for a moment. After I freshen up, I will take you down the mountain."
"good good good good."
Zhang Jiwen nodded excitedly and stopped making any noise while standing there.
After Chen Yun finished putting on his clothes, he took a homemade toothbrush and refined salt and ran outside to brush his teeth and wash his face.
As soon as he arrived outside the door, he found his mentor with Ji Xin, Qin Liang and three hundred soldiers.
Ji Xin and the three hundred rampant soldiers at this time were completely different from what they had seen yesterday.
Yesterday, Ji Xin and the Three Hundred Rampant Soldiers looked so fierce, but today they looked like they were covered in rays of light. Although the intensity was not as strong as Qin Liang's, there was no evil behind them, and they gave people the feeling of being the magic soldiers of the Immortal Family.
Obviously, Zhongliquan had prepared these rampant soldiers for his disciples.
Chen Yun's heart tightened, and he didn't even bother to brush his teeth or wash his face. He quickly ran to Zhong Liquan and admitted his mistake: "Disciple should not have come back drunk last night and made my mentor worried."
Normally, if Zhong Liquan saw Chen Yun so drunk, he would definitely reprimand him severely. As a teacher, he is similar to his father, so he must strictly discipline his disciples.
However, today not only did he not have any blame, on the contrary, he smiled and asked with concern: "Chongyong, when you went to the banquet yesterday, King Akagi besides giving you a mount, did he have any other gifts in return?"
Chen Yun did not dare to hide anything and explained the matter of "Eight-Nine Mysterious Skills" in detail.
Zhong Liquan was very satisfied after hearing this. He nodded slightly and said, "This is a mysterious skill that can conquer the creation of heaven and earth. Although it is not as good as my inner alchemy skill, it still has many merits. You have just practiced Yin Shen. See if you can use the mysterious skill to conquer the world." Gong Ronghezhi, well, since you got up late today, let's go play with Ji Wen, I just happened to teach Qin Liang and General Ji how to arrange their troops so that you can practice tomorrow."
As soon as he said this, Chen Yun seemed to understand something.
As expected, my mentor took out the Spirit-shaking Pill yesterday, probably for the Erlang Shen Xuan Gong.
The reason why Chen Yun allowed himself to obtain this mysterious skill was that his mentor thought that he had cultivated the Yin God. If he practiced the inner alchemy normally and reached a certain level, if he wanted to practice the Yang God, he would have to crush the Yin God into a Chunyang, if you have this mysterious skill as a reference, you can understand it, and maybe you don't have to do that.
The premise is that you can realize it yourself.
Therefore, the teacher’s intention was not to allow him to practice this mysterious skill.
As for if he had not befriended Erlang Shen because of the surrender of Ji Xin and the Three Hundred Rampant Soldiers, Chen Yun guessed that his mentor would also find a way for him to obtain the "Eight-nine Mysterious Skills" from Erlang Shen.
Chen Yun could probably guess a thing or two, and he hurriedly bowed and saluted, saying, "I have troubled you, my master, to make plans for your disciple's future. I will bear this in mind and dare not forget you."
"In the early stages of your cultivation, the road I can pave for you is basically paved. What kind of fortune you will have in the future depends on you." Zhong Liquan said slightly.
As he said this, he seemed to remember something, "Oh, by the way, I asked Xiugu to say hello to Master Dongji. Please go there when you have time."
Chen Yun was startled, "Master Dongji?"
Zhongli Quan said humbly: "If you can learn the Dharma of her body from Master Dongji, then on the way of Dharma, my teacher will not be able to teach you anything. You will have to figure out the rest by yourself. I can only teach you." Some tricks."
This time Chen Yun completely understood.
His mentor asked him to come to Qingcheng Mountain to meet Master Zhang, and gave him Zhenling Pill to make friends with Erlang Shen. Now, through He Xiangu's relationship, he asked Master Dongji to teach him the method of cultivating the physical body. It turned out that he was completing basic teaching.
It can be regarded as determining the cultivation route for yourself and how to develop in the future.
As my teacher said, when you have a basic theory of the three elements of essence, energy and spirit, the rest depends on your enlightenment as to what kind of path you can take in the future.
According to what his mentor said, Chen Yun had a premonition that after practicing in Qingcheng Mountain this year, he would be able to "become a disciple".
The meanings of becoming a disciple and becoming a teacher are very similar, but they are very different.
The meaning of apprenticeship is that the apprentice learns skills from a master and becomes successful at the end of the term, but does not leave his master, but does not need to learn skills anymore.
The meaning of becoming a master is that you not only have perfected your studies, but also can leave the master and start your own business. For example, Zheng Wenshu became a teacher, so he left the Taoist Temple and went to Jinsu Cave to start his own business.
Chen Yun thought about it and asked: "Teacher, when should I go to find the real person in Dongji?"
Zhong Liquan thought for a moment and said, "Aunt Xiu should be here to pick you up in the next few days. Okay, you should freshen up quickly. Ji Wen has been here for a long time."
Chen Yun turned his head and found Zhang Jiwen looking over eagerly.
He sweated. After all, Zhang Jiwen was a child with a playful mind, so he couldn't hold back after waiting for so long.
He quickly went to freshen up.
While washing up, Chen Yun suddenly remembered that his mentor had just said that Erlang Shen had given him a mount as a gift.
He hadn't recalled it at the time, and thought to himself what kind of mount he had gotten.
After getting familiar with each other, Chen Yun and Zhang Jiwen passed by the stable near the entrance of the Taoist temple and saw a majestic and majestic colorful tiger as big as a calf. Only then did they realize what a powerful mount Erlang Shen had gifted them.
Darling, does my mount look so majestic?
Chen Yun couldn't help but feel elated.
