As an annual traditional festival, Thirteenth Man is very concerned about his relatives at home. But because I am working in a foreign country, the longing in my heart is even stronger. I had a drink in the evening, and I was half drunk because I was on an empty stomach. It was already early in the morning when I woke up, feeling a little confused. It has actually been four years since I first started writing, but there has been no major breakthrough. Although the framework has been formed in my mind for a long time, when I start writing every day, I feel even more entangled in my mind. Although it is not for money, this recognition of my writing has not given me the joy I deserve. Thirteenth Lang knows that he has little talent and little knowledge. Only by continuous hard work can he be worthy of his intermittent persistence over the years! On the occasion of the festive season, I wish all book lovers family reunion and good health!

Since the Tang Dynasty, there have been many legends in the world!

First there is the hero spectrum of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, which created the legends of the world in the late Sui and early Tang Dynasties! Later, there was the biography of the Empress Qiying, which continued the exciting years of the early Tang Dynasty! With the advent of Xuanzong's prosperous Tang Dynasty, the Central Plains became the world of knight-errant swordsmen! After Dezong in the middle Tang Dynasty, the feudal towns became popular, and many outstanding people joined them! Since the end of the Tang Dynasty, people all over the world have regarded knight-errant swordsmen as a wonder!

Jianghu!

People in the world don't know that there are rivers and lakes, they only know that there are legends! Therefore, legends have been attached to them for a long time, and these swordsmen and heroes who traveled around the world have been woven into various myths and legends. Through word of mouth, the life experiences of these swordsmen and high-rollers have become dreams in people's eyes. Their experience of traveling around the world has become wanton in the world!

Jianghu!

Shitou Xi, the great Zen sect, moved to spread the Dharma in Nanyue, Hengshan Mountain, Hunan, Chu, and attracted believers from all over the world to worship and convert. He is the senior disciple of the Sixth Patriarch Huineng and the main inheritor of the Southern School of Zen.

Mazu Daoyi preached Dharma at Kaiyuan Temple in Zhongling, Hongzhou. He was a disciple of Master Huairang, the Sixth Patriarch Huineng. He also practiced Dharma in Nanyue at first, and later became the founder of Hongzhou Sect in Jiangxi Province.

Hunan, the land of Chu, and Jiangxi, the land of Ganxi, were both backward areas in the Tang Dynasty at that time. The popularity of Zen Buddhism just filled the cultural gaps in these two areas. At that time, people kept traveling back and forth between Jiangxi in Gan and Hunan in Chu because of the knowledge of Shitou Xiqian and Mazu Daoyi, so the term "jianghu" gradually came into being!

Of course, some people say that the term "Zoujianghu" originated from Mazu Daoyi, whose Taoist temple was in Jiangxi, Gansu Province, and his disciple Baizhang Huaihai. As well as the reason why Nanyue Huairang and Shitou Xiqian's dojos are all in Hunan, Chudi.

From the end of the Tang Dynasty to the beginning of the Five Dynasties, the five sects and seven sects of Zen gradually took shape. Zen practitioners and lay followers sought out teachers and visited the disciples of major Zen masters. Therefore, everyone called this method of constant traveling "traveling around the world".

Since then, the word "walking in the world" has appeared in the world!

People say: Once you enter the rivers and lakes, they are as deep as the sea!

Xiao Jiulang saw Ma Yun's posture and remembered the training he had received that day, and knew that he was a veteran in the world. But it's not surprising that as the manager of Daoguang Trading Company, he is constantly traveling among the rivers and lakes. It can be said that there are all kinds of characters that I usually come into contact with. I guess I have my own way of dealing with these strangers in the world.

Look at the uncle next to him who is still half asleep, as if he didn't hear the young man on the boat announcing his family status. The master Feng Biwei and the headmaster Geng Xiansheng in the cabin on the second floor did not come out or respond. Xiao Jiulang knew that this was a good opportunity for him to learn, and just like the people watching the excitement on the cabin, he stood aside without saying a word. squeak.

"A certain family is Ma Yun, the external manager of Daoguang Trading Company. He is now a servant of the Xiao family in Jinling City. He purchased various goods in Raozhou and is returning to Jinling City! I don't know which senior martial artist is coming in front of me. I don’t know what you’re doing with someone!” Ma Yun clasped his fists and saluted the boat. He was resting in the cabin but did not sleep. He came out when he heard the noise.

He was startled when he saw the two people on the canoe. A white-haired old man was sitting on the canoe as steady as a mountain, as if he was attached to the canoe. It was weird and surprising. The young man's sleeves were rolled up high, showing his strong and swollen muscles, which could be interpreted as a sign of strength. But this old man was obviously not an ordinary person, and he couldn't help but express his sincere greeting.

As the saying goes, stretch out your hand to avoid hitting the smiling person. He travels around all year round, and although he is not a figure in the world, he often interacts with them. I just heard faintly in the cabin that this old man was some kind of Kunlun immortal. Although he doesn't know who he is, he must be an expert in the world.

Ma Yun naturally does not believe that there are robbers on Poyang Lake, not to mention that the robbers cannot be an old and a young partner. Although there were no knight-errant swordsmen around him, the trading company was still accompanied by two guards. Three or two ordinary people could still easily deal with it, so he boldly negotiated with the people on the canoe.

Xiao Jiulang could tell at a glance that the two guards standing next to him were Lian Jiazi, and one stood beside Ma Yun, while the other stood a little further away and looked at the movement on the side. It was obvious that he had never been exposed to such scenes.

Xiao Jiulang secretly nodded. Daoguang Trading Company has its own reasons for doing business in the world. Just looking at these ordinary foreign affairs, you know that it must have its own way. Thinking of the reason for this, Xiao Jiulang couldn't help but look at the people on the cabin again, and frowned slightly at a glance.

Ma Yun here knows that there are many knight-errant swordsmen in the rivers and lakes. Even though the Xiao family has a great business and has some respect in Jinling, but compared with these people in the rivers and lakes, they have no advantage at all, so he looked at the people on the boat. The two of them were, first of all, respectful.

The young Sihu named Yan seemed a little nervous, whispering to the two policemen around him from time to time, and looking at the boat on the lake from time to time. Although Xiao Jiulang didn't know what they wanted to do, he was obviously worried about something.

What surprised Xiao Jiulang was that the family of four seemed to be quite nervous. The young couple was holding the little girl and looking nervously at the old lady on crutches. The family stood there, looking closely at the people on the boat. The old lady frowned and looked at them with hatred in her eyes.

Most of the people on this merchant ship should be unknown to each other. Xiao Jiulang heard Ma Yun mention that these people were all on their way to Jinling City. As for the background of these people, Jack Ma would not go and ask them one by one. At most, he would just see them in person.

It was as if Xiao Jiulang had just driven a carriage up. Although Ma Yun stood aside and watched, when he saw that they were two female dependents, he immediately averted his eyes and went aside. Now that I think about it, it's not surprising that everyone is on board. Xiao Jiulang remembered what his uncle Su Hou had just said. Could it be that the people in the world he was talking about were from this family?

But what is surprising is that there are two more people in this family. A man in blue cloth is standing next to the old lady on the left. A young man in white clothes with a seven-star sword hanging on his waist was standing next to the beautiful woman.

The man in blue cloth and the boy in white looked calm. Xiao Jiulang only saw them coming up after they boarded the boat. I have never been with this family. No one would have thought that they were together with this family. At this moment, the man in blue was standing beside the old lady, and the boy in white was standing beside the beautiful woman with his sword, obviously protecting the family.

Obviously, these things are not that simple anymore, Xiao Jiulang felt vaguely excited. The master he had just worshiped did not show up, and the uncle next to him did not know how skilled he was. Seeing their indifferent expressions, Xiao Jiulang felt a lot more at ease.

After all, the romance he got this time was because he helped the master. Obviously there was an extremely powerful enemy who wanted to go against the master. Otherwise, why would the master bring the master and the master here? Xiao Jiulang was not stupid but figured it out quickly. However, seeing that none of the people on his side were nervous, they were even more happy to watch a good show.

"The Yin family in Jinling is proud of its famous family, why are you trying to be a coward at this moment!" The young man on the boat said in a teasing tone, actually looking at the boat with his arms folded, as if he didn't pay attention to Ma Yun's reply at all.

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Ma Yun's face, but he immediately remained calm. He has been in Jinling City for many years. Although he knows that there are many people with the surname Yin in Jinling City, he has never heard of any famous family with the surname Yin. He can't help but look back at the people on the boat with some suspicion.

Because most people in this era still adhere to the customs of the Tang Dynasty, even those three scholar-looking people, all with swords hanging on their waists, don't know who among these people is a Jianghu person. Only a figure like Xiao Jiulang, although he changed from the soldier's decoration to civilian clothes, he also changed into an ordinary short uniform and an ordinary cloth turban, which made him look uncivilized and unmilitary.

However, Ma Yun's last eyes fell on that family, because they were the only ones with different expressions on the cabin board. When the old lady saw Ma Yun looking over, her old eyes suddenly opened. Ma Yun felt a flash of light and was almost startled.

Sure enough, before Ma Yun said anything, the crutch in the old lady's hand hit the deck and made a huge muffled sound. She looked at the boat on the lake with sharp eyes. She coughed violently before she could speak, and her wrinkled face turned red.

Su Hou, who had been half asleep, suddenly opened his eyes because the white-haired old man in the boat suddenly stood up. His childlike face and white hair looked gleaming, and his robe was fluttering in the breeze on the lake. He really looked a bit fluttering.

He looked calm and seemed to be thoughtful. He stood behind the young man with his hands behind his hands. His eyes became a little heated when he watched the people on the boat gradually move aside, revealing the family. However, he glanced at the man in blue and the boy in white standing on both sides in surprise, and soon returned to their normal demeanor.

"It must be Mrs. Yin who is in person. I have admired the name of the old lady for a long time! I came to the Southern Tang Dynasty to look for old friends and reminisce about the past. Unexpectedly, I heard that my old friend passed away a few years ago, and I was always sad in my heart. Although the old friend has passed away, but The old lady must have heard my name!"

He quietly looked at the old lady coughing violently on the boat, her expression as calm as an old man talking to his friend. But the sound coming from the lake was like someone whispering in the ear. The voice didn't sound like an old man at all, but instead gave the impression of a young man. Hearing this voice, even Xiao Jiulang on the side was a little surprised.

Ma Yun looked at the old lady in confusion. He obviously didn't know her. Although Jinling City was huge, he didn't know where the Yin family came from. But when he started to take the merchant ship back to Jinling City, he remembered that the young man next to the old lady said that his surname was Wu.

Maybe he told a lie, but that doesn't matter anymore. Listening to what this Kunlun immortal said in the boat on the lake, it was obvious that he was closely related to the Yin family. I just don’t know why we meet in Poyang Lake, and looking at Mrs. Yin’s expression, she seems a little unhappy. Ma Yun just hoped that these people would not cause any trouble. If the goods on his trip were also affected, he was afraid that his future would be over when he returned to Jinling City.

The young man hurriedly took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, poured out a red pill from the bottle, and immediately gave it to the old lady to take. The Kunlun Immortal in the lake watched the old lady taking medicine, but he didn't move at all. The look on his face seemed to be more relaxed.

Within a few breaths, the old lady seemed to have recovered. The blush on her face seemed to have faded a lot, but her eyes looking at the old man became even sharper.

"Although I have never seen it, the children of the Yin family dare not or forget your name! My wife is thinking about you day and night! I didn't expect that you still refused to let go of the Yin family!" This old lady Yin seemed to have eyes that were filled with tears. Out of the fire, looking at the destructive looks on the two people in the boat, they seemed to have a deep hatred for the Kunlun Immortal on the boat.

Hahahahaha!

The Kunlun Immortal raised his head and laughed loudly, his voice echoing far across the lake! Suddenly he looked at Mrs. Yin again and said quietly: "Let your Yin family go? Did your Yin family let me go back then? I have not dared to forget it for decades, just to see what happened to me. What kind of ending will these culprits of the family get!"

As soon as everyone heard the conversation between the two sides, it turned out that the old grudge came to seek revenge. In a short time, everyone on the boat moved out of the way, including the whole family, the man in blue, and the boy in white. Even Ma Yun stopped saying anything and quietly stepped aside with the two guards.

Then they saw the Kunlun Immortal Man flying onto the ship with fluttering sleeves. Some ordinary people were stunned when they saw him passing by in the air, riding the wind like a god. Xiao Jiulang has met many masters, not to mention the skills of his master Feng Biwei who he just worshiped, and he knows that this is a superb light body lifting technique, which is what ordinary people call light gong.

But seeing the ease with which he boarded the merchant ship in a light boat, it was really easy and natural to make people sigh. After all, the distance from bottom to top was more than three feet. Although Xiao Jiulang also knows some low-level lifting techniques, they were taught by the instructor during special training. Compared with this kind of real light kung fu, they are far behind.

Su Hou didn't know when he was standing next to Xiao Jiulang, and asked Xiao Jiulang if he was envious. Xiao Jiulang nodded honestly and looked at Su Hou with some expectation. Su Hou smiled and continued to transmit the message: "Although this Kunlun Immortal is good at Qinggong, it is nothing compared to my body skills. You don't have to envy me if you are calm and don't be impatient. After returning to Jinling, follow my senior sister." You will only get better Qinggong movements!"

Xiao Jiulang naturally believed what Su Hou said. After all, in the eyes of ordinary people, Xiaoyao Sect was a first-class sect of gods. After joining the sect, he would cultivate immortality and become a Taoist. Thinking of this and the days to come, Xiao Jiulang's mind was filled with longing.

Seeing Xiao Jiulang's eyes fixed on this, Su Hou took the initiative to tell Xiao Jiulang that this Kunlun Immortal was quite famous in the world. Especially in the northwest direction, many people should have heard of the name Kunlun Immortal Weng, a strange man who lives far away in the Kunlun Mountains in the west.

It is said that decades ago, in the late Tang Dynasty, in the remote area of ​​Hanzhong in the west of Shu, there was a family of military generals with the surname Ming that had been passed down for more than ten generations. Suddenly, the entire family suffered a disaster. In the end, there was only one branch of the family. Leave.

This incident spread later because the royal family of the previous dynasty was wiped out by Zhu Wen, Taizu of the Later Liang Dynasty. It is said that a family friend of the Ming family, the Sun family, joined forces with the other two families, the Yin family and the Chen family, to covet the Ming family's set of ancestral sword skills and a book of self-cultivation. They took advantage of the opportunity when the world was about to be in chaos and no one could control it. The whole family was wiped out.

Later, although the head of the Sun family found this set of sword manuals and the coveted mental method, he didn't know why he couldn't practice it to the effect of the Ming family's disciples. He later defected to Zhu Wen and became a hero in the founding of the country. He was pardoned and promoted to a local official. The Yin family was also granted a post near today's Jinling because he followed him.

Later, unexpectedly, because of an incident, the Sun family was ordered to be confiscated by Zhu Wen, which led to the unsolved case of that year.

The world cannot know the whole story, but there is a vague legend that an old servant took a young master of this family to go hunting and escaped. Because he heard that his family had been wiped out, he fled to areas further west of Shu and sought survival in the almost uninhabited Kunlun Mountains.

The Sun family and the Yin family and Chen family who joined forces to exterminate the family thought that they had completely wiped out the Ming family. Even though they later learned that one of their sons had not been found, they let these two lucky ones go because of the chaos in the world. Later, because the Sun family was raided, old friends of the Ming family in the Later Liang Dynasty complained about injustice, and the commotion was known to almost everyone in the world.

I don’t know why Zhu Wen didn’t implicate the two accomplices of the Sun family, the Yin family and the Chen family, but a few years later, when the Later Tang Dynasty was just established, two shocking massacres suddenly occurred in the world.

One was the Chen family near Jianzhou in Fujian Province. More than a hundred people in the family were almost killed. One is the Yin family in today's Jinling City. Of the more than 200 people in the family, only a dozen people survived. Later it was learned that he was killed by the same person, a strange man from Xingluhai, a sect in the extreme northwest, who called himself the Kunlun Immortal.

He claimed that he was looking for the ancestral sword manual and the Taoist true teaching "Dadong Sutra" stolen by the two families to avenge the disaster of annihilation. Another enemy family has been wiped out by Liang Guo. He can't take revenge and can only vent his anger on the accomplices of the two families. Because it involved a feud between Jianghu and Jianghu, and the two families fell out of favor after the change of dynasties, no one came forward for the two families, and the matter later fell into disuse.

When Xiao Jiulang heard what Su Hou said, he was shocked and surprised, feeling that things in the world are impermanent. What happened on the ship now may be a continuation of the grudges from back then. Because he saw that the two sides on the cabin were at war with each other, he couldn't help but ask Su Hou in a low voice and vaguely what the "Great Cave Scripture" was. Su Hou pondered for a moment and then spoke to Xiao Jiulang again.

The "Shangqing Dadong Zhenjing" is also known as the "Taoist Thirty-nine Chapters Sutra". It is said that it was passed down by the Taoist Tianzun. It is a famous classic of the Shangqing Sect of Taoism. The Shangqing Sect calls it the first of the three wonders of Taoism.

It is said that if one obtains the Great Cave Sutra, even if he is not allowed to practice the golden elixir, he will become an immortal immediately after reading it thousands of times. You can imagine the temptation to the world.

Therefore, this sutra has been taught continuously throughout the ages. However, although there are different versions of this sutra on the market, they must not contain the cultivation method. However, there are many successors of Taoism, and each of them is really powerful. After sorting it out, they are generally based on the six-volume "Shangqing Dadong Zhenjing" of the Shangqing Sect and the "Jade Secrets of the Shangqing Dadong Zhenjing" by Chen Jingyuan. Authentic copy.

Road to Road, very Avenue,

Famous, very famous.

Nameless, the beginning of heaven and earth.

Famous, the mother of all things.

Therefore, there is always nothing, and I want to observe its wonder.

It happens all the time, and I want to observe its subtleties.

Mysterious and mysterious, the door to all mysteries.

There are tens of thousands of ways, three thousand are the great way, six thousand are the small ways, and nine thousand are the way of humanity.

With just one thought of reincarnation, he ascended to the sky and turned into nothingness.

I want to take the way of chaos, yin and yang, and then realize the original way of heaven and earth!

Because of the spread of chaos, there is still a glimmer of hope!

Chu said: The Great Dao is fifty and perfect, but Tianyan is only forty-nine, leaving one as proof.

All things have feelings, and heaven and earth are the way.

Tao gives birth to one, and gives birth to two, which is yin and yang; two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things, which is the replacement.

All things have the cycle of life and death, life or death, or death or life, and change repeatedly; whether they are sad or happy, there are causes and effects, showing the cause and effect of this Tao to each other.

Measuring kalpas are formed in the world. Measuring kalpas are for growth and the alternation of cause and effect. Measuring calamity after measuring calamity is called immeasurable calamity.

During the countless calamities, practitioners in heaven and earth either practice in secret and focus on the Tao, or accumulate merits in order to protect them; or they find new paths in order to make breakthroughs.

The way of heaven is ruthless, treating all living beings as ants, and heaven and earth as chopping blocks.

However, the way of heaven also has feelings. The perfect way is fifty, and the forty-nine days of heaven are missing one. Just because of the missing one, there is a glimmer of hope for all living beings.

The missing one, the escaped one, or the one that remains!

It is this one that gives hope to countless people who pursue the way of heaven in the world! It is this one that makes countless practitioners in the world feel the reality of the way of heaven! It is this oneness that makes countless people in the world understand that there is a gap between heaven and earth!

There are thousands of practitioners in the world, how many of them can truly know this oneness?

As long as one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs can ascend to heaven!

It’s not just the success of this enlightened person, but the wealth and karma left behind by success, benefiting countless people around him. At the same time, it also pointed out that because of his success, countless people later saw hope. As long as they followed this method, they would naturally succeed.

There are thousands of people in the world who practice and pursue the way of heaven. No matter which sect or sect you follow, or which teacher or method you study, at least one thing has been demonstrated. That is the truth of the simplicity and simplicity of the great road, and the principle of achieving the same goal through different paths.

Even if practitioners from the same sect use the same practice method, because each person has a different understanding of Taoism, there will naturally be ever-changing methods along the way. It is because of this change that thousands of Taoist methods and hundreds of thousands of Taoist sects have emerged in the world.

In order to find this missing or left-over one, everyone has gone through hundreds and thousands of hardships along the way, just to find this lost one, hoping to find the road to perfection and achieve the supreme way of heaven.

There are three thousand avenues, I will only choose one! The great road is invisible, I only seek one!

Road to Road, very Avenue!

Famous, very famous!

Ordinary people may look at it as an ordinary Taoist scripture, but if a cultivator looks at it, it will be a treasure of cultivation. Although I don't know where the Ming Dynasty's "Dadong Zhenjing" came from, it must not be an ordinary vulgar object that can cause catastrophe for decades.
