"This child actually fell asleep!" When the breakthrough was completed and the pain dissipated, Liu Xu was surprised to find that the silly girl Long Jinling actually fell asleep, lying in the jungle and sleeping soundly. She looked so beautiful that she Liu Xu was speechless.
"Two gentlemen, is she really not infected by any virus or bacteria?" Although he had already received the answer once, Liu Xu couldn't help but ask again.
"Absolutely not!" The two shook their heads. "I really can't understand why. Unless this little girl has been to this world once and already has so-called antibodies in her body, there is no way she won't have any reaction at all!"
The two masters of traditional Chinese medicine studied for a long time, but still came up with no results. In desperation, Liu Xu could only have someone lift up the golden spirit dragon and prepare to return it to her father. When she returned to the fortress, she met someone who happened to be passing by. When Zhu Bajie was playing with Zhu Bajie, the second senior brother suddenly said, "Hey, he is actually born with a Taoist body!"
"Born with a Taoist body." Liu Xu was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then looked at the second senior brother. The second senior brother understood and immediately said, "Your Majesty, this girl is indeed born with a Taoist body. There is nothing wrong with it. I, the old pig, will not be mistaken!"
"Is this innate Taoist body, as written in many books, a fast cultivation speed?" Liu Xu asked curiously.
"Well, how should I put it? This Tianshan conductor cannot be described as having a fast cultivation speed, because he does not need to practice at all. He is a born immortal. As long as he embarks on the path of cultivation, he will definitely be able to ascend to immortality!" The second senior brother laughed! He said, there was a bit of pride in his words.
"So fierce?" Liu Xu was surprised again. Seeing Zhu Bajie's proud expression, he wondered, "Why are you so proud?"
"Hehe, Your Majesty doesn't know that I, Old Zhu, am actually born with a Taoist body." Zhu Bajie became even more proud.
"Are you also born with Taoism?" Liu Xu suddenly thought of the description of Zhu Bajie's origin in Journey to the West.
The original text reads like this
"I have been born with a clumsy mind, greedy for leisure and love for laziness. I have never cultivated my nature and cultivated my true nature, and my mind has been chaotic and obsessed with me for days and months. Suddenly I met a true immortal in my leisure time, and I sat down with Han Wen and said: Please advise me to change my mind and not fall into the world. Wounding one's life has caused boundless evil. One day when one's life is about to end, one will regret the eight difficulties and three paths. Listen to the words and ask for spiritual practice, and after hearing the words, the mind will return to seek the secrets. If there is a chance, I will worship you as my teacher and show you the gates of heaven and the gates of earth. Got it. It is said that the nine-turn Dahuan Dan works day and night. It goes up to the Niwan Palace on the top of the head and down to the Yongquan point on the foot. The kidney water from the circulation flows into the Huachi, and the Dantian is warm and warm. Infants and girls match yin and yang, lead and mercury The sun and the moon are in harmony. The dragon and the tiger are harmonious, and the tortoise absorbs all the blood of the golden crow. The three flowers gather at the top to return to their roots, and the five qi are clear to the yuan. When the power is completed, they soar, and the gods come to greet them. The colorful clouds are at Langran's feet. Born, he was light and healthy and headed towards the Golden Palace. The Jade Emperor held a banquet for all the immortals, each ranked according to rank. He was granted the title of marshal in charge of Tianhe, and the governor-general of the navy was called Xianjie."
To put it simply, Zhu Bajie was originally a stupid and lazy guy who was born. He should have died in a daze. Instead, he met a true immortal in a daze. Not only did he accept him as his disciple on the spot, but he also gave him a gift. After receiving the Nine-turn Great Return Pill, he successfully ascended to immortality and was directly appointed as Marshal of Tianhe by the Jade Emperor.
Such a poetic description seems very normal, but if you carefully consider the words inside, you will find that the origin of Zhu Bajie is simply too abnormal.
First of all, a guy who is born clumsy and idle is unlikely to be a genius in cultivating immortals, let alone be favored by gods.
You must know that even if a genius is born and raised like our monkey brother, if he wants to learn from a famous teacher, he will have to spend decades of effort and travel to the four major continents.
But Zhu Bajie just stayed at home, and the master took the initiative to send him to his door.
And judging from the description in the poem, it seems that the master still spent a lot of effort to persuade Zhu Bajie to give up the idea of dawdling and devote himself to cultivating immortality.
Comparing the experience of Brother Monkey, Brother Monkey is simply not too miserable.
Not only did the master not accept him at the beginning, he also didn’t teach him any skills after he accepted him. Brother Monkey had to go through a lot of hard work to learn a few magical powers. But just because he showed off a few times in front of his fellow disciples, he was kicked out of the disciples by Patriarch Subhuti, and even Monkey Brother was not allowed to tell what his master's biography was for the rest of his life.
Look at Zhu Bajie again, the treatment given by the master is completely different. After becoming a disciple, he was given a top-notch elixir such as the Nine-turn Great Return Pill, and within a few years, three flowers gathered at the top, and the five qi were in full swing. , ascended to immortality, and as soon as he became an immortal, he crossed the two thresholds of heavenly immortal and true immortal, and directly became a golden immortal. The Jade Emperor personally hosted a banquet to welcome him, and at the same time, he was named Marshal of Tianhe. Is this treatment just like a Bima Wen? Comparable.
So when you read this passage, you can feel the differences between Brother Monkey and Zhu Bajie in their cultivation of immortality.
Of course, Brother Monkey himself was plotted by Buddhism when he was still in the stone. All the experiences he experienced after his birth can be said to be the result of a joint arrangement between Taoism and Buddhism. It can be said that they were deliberately training Brother Monkey to make him better. It becomes what Taoism and Buddhism want.
But why does Zhu Bajie do it?
Even Zhu Bajie himself is an appointed role in the four-person group, so he can get some opportunities, but Sun Wukong is a born noble being, and you, Zhu Bajie, are just a mortal when you are born, why do you get such treatment?
Therefore, anyone who has done some research on Journey to the West will feel that there is something wrong with Zhu Bajie’s identity, and it will never be as simple as what is written in Journey to the West.
Now Zhu Bajie took the initiative to reveal the four words "Innate Taoism", which seems to be able to explain a thing or two, and also aroused Liu Xu's curiosity. After all, this is in Journey to the West and there is no specific explanation. It can only be left to future generations based on countless details. Let's make some speculation.
"Marshal Tianpeng, please tell me carefully, what is the difference between this natural Tao body!" Liu Xu asked immediately, Zhu Bajie hesitated and said, "It's hard to say, it involves too many causes and effects..."
"There is no heaven here, and there are no three religions. I am the cause and effect here!" Liu Xu replied lightly. Zhu Bajie shuddered, and then he came to his senses and said, "That's right, the sky and the earth are big here, and your majesty is the biggest, so I will give it to your majesty." Say it, say it!"
"This innate Tao body, as the name suggests, is a body that is close to the Tao from birth. In other words, such a physical body will not have any bottlenecks that mortals have."
"If the mortal body is compared to a river that has been in disrepair for a long time and has countless places blocked by silt, then the natural Tao body is a brand new, smooth river without any obstacles."
"If the former wants to run to the sea, water sources alone are not enough. The owner of the river needs to work hard to dredge the river, remove the silt blocking the river bit by bit, and even find ways to change the channel when necessary. , otherwise the river water will submerge the crops, and instead drown the owner of the river channel."
"But the innate Taoist body does not need to do anything. You only need to pour water into it crazily. As long as there is enough water, in an instant it will be a majestic river like the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers."
