Li Banxian eloquently explained what Taiping Dao is.
During the reign of Emperor Shun of the Eastern Han Dynasty, a man named Gong Chong went to the palace to present a "sacred book" called "Taiping Qingling Shu", which contained 170 volumes but was not accepted by the emperor. Later, the book gradually spread. That is the "Taiping Jing". According to Han Chinese records, this book is distributed according to the ten categories of A, B, Bing, Ding, Wuji, Geng, Xin, Ren, and Gui. Each volume has 17 volumes, making a total of 170 volumes. The "Taiping Jing" is very rich in ideological content. It is the ideological inheritance of the "Tao Te Ching". For example, "Tao" is the mother of the world, Tao gives birth to "all things", and the root of seeking Tao is Jing et al. In addition, "Taiping Jing" He also developed the concepts of "One" and "Qi", believing that "One" is the "root" of all things such as matter and thought. "One" is the root of Tao, the origin of Qi, and the root of life. "He is also the master of all hearts. "Qi" is the vitality. "Human things begin from the vitality." Heaven, earth, and humans originally come from the same vitality and are divided into three bodies. "Taiping" is the social ideal of Taiping Tao, "Taiping Jingchao" Said: "Too means great. It is said that its accumulation is as big as the sky. There is no one bigger than the sky. "Ping" means that the governance is too average. If everything is managed carefully, there will be no unevenness. If the earth is below and is level,... the weather will be happy. Down below, the Qi of the earth is pleasant to the top. The two Qi are connected and become the Qi of neutrality. They support each other and support all things without harming each other. Therefore, it is called Taiping. "The Taiping Jing runs through the three-union theological thought on human beings, treating humans as gods, Essence and Qi are "three qi's in one", which are the root of the spirit. ...The spirit is received from the sky, the essence is received from the earth, and the qi is received from the neutral. They are one and the same. It is believed that "the spirit is gone" When the Qi is gone, the spirit will go away, and when the Qi is not gone, the spirit will not go away. Therefore, the Taiping Jing proposes the method of "keeping one", "It is the root of all gods. The root is deep and the spirit is quiet, and there is no way to die." "
After Li Banxian finished narrating, his face showed pride.
"In other words, all your spells come from this Taiping Dao?"
Yu Yi roughly figured out the ins and outs of the matter.
"Yes, what I just used on the giant snake was the lightning technique, and then I used the talisman technique on the scaly man. This talisman can harm people, and it can also cure diseases."
Li Banxian explained.
"Why don't you agree to such a good thing?"
Witnessing Li Banxian's devastating spell, Wei Gang couldn't help but be moved and quickly persuaded Yu Yi.
Yu Yi compared some contents in "Taiping Dao" and "Taiping Yaoshu" in his mind, and found that the two were almost surprisingly consistent. This "Taiping Dao" was more like a derivative of "Taiping Yaoshu". religion.
Finally, Yu Yi couldn't stand his curiosity anymore and simply confessed, "You are not Li Banxian at all. Your real name is Zhang Jiao. You have two brothers named Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao. You are originally a different person." No. 1 scholar, because he got..."
When Yu Yi talked about the secret of his core, Li Banxian suddenly shouted and interrupted Yu Yi.
"How do you know this!"
A look of horror appeared on Li Banxian's face. Yu Yi's words really surprised him.
Yu Yi is indeed right. This person is not Li Banxian. His name is Zhang Jiao, who is an authentic Julu man. Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao are his two useless brothers. In order to revitalize the family, Zhang Jiao also After reading some books, he also went to Huang Wenjie, the then magistrate of Julu, to recommend him under the framework of the imperial court. However, he had no background and no one was willing to recommend him, so he could only retire with hatred.
Until later, because life was really tight and he received a meal from Wei Gang, he began to change his mind and wanted to do something big on his own and escape from this known framework.
Things went as smoothly as he thought. Once he went up the mountain to collect medicine by chance, and met a magical old man with blue eyes and a childlike face, holding a quinoa stick in his hand. He called him to go to a cave, but after repeated questioning, He never told him the reason. He thought that it was like this anyway and it didn't matter anymore, so he went to the cave as the old man asked. The old man was very happy to see that he came to the appointment on time. He asked him about his inner ambition and replied: "As much as I can." I can do some big things myself and help more people.”
The old man nodded with satisfaction, then took out three volumes of the Heavenly Book from his arms, and said: "These techniques I give you are called "The Essential Techniques of Taiping". After you get them, you must preach and educate everyone on behalf of the way of heaven, and save the world." ; If you violate your oath and have some evil thoughts in your heart, you will definitely receive retribution."
After he knelt down to thank him, he quickly asked the old man his name.
The old man smiled and said: "I am the old immortal of Nanhua. You must treat these three volumes of heavenly books well. In addition, you have to win over this person Yu Yi. If he does not join you, then your great career may also come to an end. "
After saying that, it turned into a breeze and disappeared into the air.
After Zhang Jiao obtained these volumes of heavenly books, he was full of energy, studied hard day and night, and slowly learned some spells. Later, he found that the Cobra Village around Julu City had the energy he needed to further consolidate his spells, so he rushed to Cobra Village, taking advantage of another natural disaster, used lightning to attract the surrounding dark clouds, and successfully cast a powerful spell.
The other party interrupted him for no reason, and Yu Yi became even more convinced that the person in front of him was Julu Zhangjiao.
"Don't worry about why I know this, just answer me and ask if you are open-minded."
Yu Yi looked very proud.
Zhang Jue was extremely resentful at this time. If the old immortal Nanhua hadn't said that Yu Yi was a great help, he would have been shattered to pieces.
"Yes, my real name is indeed Zhang Jiao."
After weighing it again and again, Li Banxian decided to tell part of the truth.
"You guys are lucky. If I were Zhang Jiao, I would definitely kill you on the spot!"
Wei Gang couldn't help but feel strange when he saw Yu Yi talking like this and Zhang Jue not being angry.
Ye Huantong and Xiaozhu could only stand aside, listening to the conversation between the two, and nothing else could help.
"Humph, don't you think it's strange? I don't know him, but he wants to drag me into that peaceful path. Even if I ridicule him many times, he doesn't care at all. What does this mean? That's me. There must be something he can use on me, otherwise do you really think he won’t kill me?”
Yu Yi softly told Wei Gang next to him about his judgment.
At this time, the black clouds in the sky of Cobra Village gathered again, and the black clouds became more and more bright. Many thunder and lightning shot out from the black clouds, and a powerful force was seen heading toward the Cobra Village. Shooting in all directions.
"No, the power barrier supporting Cobra Village is about to disappear. I think we need to leave here as soon as possible."
As a master of some magic, Zhang Jiao quickly noticed the change in the environment and reminded everyone.
So Yu Yi saw the direction of Cobra Village, and several bolts of lightning quickly struck the houses. The originally well-preserved thatched houses burst into flames, swallowing everything up.
