The spring breeze passes through the garden, and the ground is covered with apricot blossoms.
Yunhu's voice kept ringing in the sermon.
"The number of Dayan is fifty, and its use is forty to nine. Divide it into two to resemble two, hang one to resemble three, and draw it to four to resemble the four seasons."
"How is it divided into two to make two elephants?"
"It's for yin and yang."
"Hang one to resemble three, take the heart as one, which is the foundation, then the great road resembles two, which is three."
.....
"In this way, the number of Dayan can be seen, which is the great road. If one of them is in the middle, it is like swimming in the great road. It is also the movement of the reverse Tao and the use of the weak Tao."
"There is a saying in the Five Thousand Words of Green Ox: Tao gives birth to one, one gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things."
"One is born with two, two begets three, and three begets all things. It is the model of Dao. What is the model of Dao? The God of Grain is immortal, which is called Xuan Ni. The door of Xuan Ni is called the root of heaven and earth. If it exists, it will not be used diligently. . The number of Grain God is one, and if it increases, it will be the disciple of Xuan Mu. It is called the root of heaven and earth. The root of heaven and earth is a variable. If it is changed, it will continue to exist. If it is not used diligently, it will survive. Everything.”
"If the number of grain gods increases slightly, the avenue will increase slightly. If the roots of heaven and earth increase slightly, then the avenue will be thousands of miles long, and it will be as if it has soared!"
...
Nan Dao sat confused under the apricot tree, completely unaware of what Yun Hu was talking about.
After thinking for a long time, he stretched out his hand and pulled the skirt of the woman in a white dress beside him.
"Sir, sir?"
The woman in the white dress looked back at him calmly.
Nan Dao said coquettishly: "What is Mr. Yun Huda talking about?"
The woman in the white skirt thought for a while, raised her hand and drew a cross on the ground, then drew a dot, and then drew a curved line. Then she said lightly: "This is a monastic model based on the knowledge of the School of Mathematics and Physics. If you don’t understand, you can go to the School of Mathematics and Physics to observe for a few days and then come here.”
Nan Dao looked at the face of the woman in the white dress and said softly: "Since you understand, sir, why don't you teach me when you have time?"
The woman in the white dress was stunned for a moment, not expecting that Nan Dao would suddenly say such a sentence.
After looking at Nandao up and down for a long time, he said, "I am just an honorary gentleman of Qingniu Academy. I don't teach students."
"Heaven and earth last forever. The reason why heaven and earth can last forever is because they do not generate themselves, so they can live forever..."
Yunhu's unknown voice was still floating in the sermon.
Nan Dao found it hard to listen. Looking at the face of the woman in the white dress so close, he said, "Why not?"
The woman in the white dress turned back, continued to listen to Yun Hu's sermon, and said lightly: "Because you can't learn what I teach."
This is the second time I heard this sentence.
Nan Dao continued to pull at the hem of the woman in the white skirt and said, "How do you know I can't learn?"
The woman in the white dress turned back again, looked at Nan Dao with cold eyes, and said, "Because your roots are too small."
"?"
The woman in the white dress seemed to realize that there was another meaning in this sentence. Her ears turned slightly red, but she still said in that cold tone: "You are not talented enough."
"Oh." Nan Dao suddenly realized. "Then how can I prove that I can be your student?"
The woman in the white dress said calmly: "Before Mr. Yunhu finishes speaking, enter the Tao and show me."
Nan Dao said thoughtfully: "Look at the root of the sky?"
Then he got a slap.
Cong Ren sat lazily against the sloth. Of course he heard all the conversations between Nan Dao and the woman in the white dress next to him, but the corners of his lips were slightly raised and he did not speak.
There is another person on his right, Cheng Lu, the Sipojian from Liuyun Sword Sect, one of the outstanding figures of the young generation in the world today.
The Liuyun Sword Sect has the longest history among the many sword sects in the world. At that time, before the Great Dao emerged, there were many swordsmen in the mountains in the middle of Huaian. Later, those swordsmen opened their own gates and experienced a long period of time. After the fusion, this ancient sword sect was formed.
Unlike the Human Sword Sect, which evolved from Taoism and uses Taoism to control swords, the Liuyun Sword Sect's sword cultivators advocate using the body to control swords, and are called the retro-style sword sect. Chen Yunxi, the current leader of the Liuyun Sword Sect, is He was the one who held the apprenticeship ceremony to Qing Yi back then. He is also the oldest sword cultivator among the three swordsmen in the world today, and Cheng Lu was a disciple he accepted ten years ago.
The origin of the name Si Po Sword was that when he was eighteen years old, a disciple from the twelfth floor came out. When he met him, he pierced four holes in him in one breath, so the world called him Si Po Sword.
Si Po Jian, who is quite famous among the younger generation, always likes to wear a black short coat and leggings, with a slender sword placed across his knees, and his hair is slightly short and weirdly spread out to both sides.
In terms of seniority, Cong Ren is a disciple of the previous sect leader Cong Zhongxiao. Cong Zhongxiao needs to call Chen Yunxi uncle, but Cheng Lu can be regarded as Cong Ren's master.
Of course, although Cheng Lu used the sword to his limit in daily life, he was not so extreme in terms of life. He still honestly called this kendo master who was dormant and sleeping in Nanyi City, uncle.
"Uncle Master, I have something that I don't understand." Cheng Lu put her hands on the sword, looked at Cong Ren respectfully and called out.
Cong Ren tilted his head and looked at Cheng Lu, looking at his hair. He always felt that there was something wrong with this style. After looking at it for a while, he said, "What's the matter?"
Cheng Lu looked at Yunhu Zhizi, who was constantly talking about the model of cultivation and the Dao in front of the stream in Daoping, and asked with great confusion: "I heard that Mr. Yunhu has never stepped into the path of cultivation. How does he know these things? ?”
Cong Ren looked up at the young scholar, smiled softly, and said, "Just because he is not a Taoist, it doesn't mean he doesn't know."
"How do you know if you are not a Taoist?"
"He was born on the street in the main courtyard of Xuanxuyuan. He was smart since he was a child. When he was three years old, he read through the "Supplementary Records of the Human World" in the library. When he was five years old, he could understand "The Five Thousand Words of the Green Ox". Until he was ten years old, he spent his time in the library of the main courtyard of Xuanxuyuan, reading thousands of books. Seeing that he was smart and easy to read, Qing asked someone to take him to visit all the libraries in the world. A person like this would not be able to enter. Entering the Tao is no longer important.”
As Cong Ren spoke, his expression was somewhat moved, and he said with admiration: "He has become a kind of Tao in his own right."
After hearing what Cong Ren said, Cheng Lu looked at the frail-looking scholar again with a hint of respect in her eyes.
"I see."
"It's more than that." Cong Ren said softly, "By bringing him to Nanyi City, Xuanxu Courtyard, to be a great gentleman, this already means that the world will no longer follow the old path, but will follow his new path."
Cheng Lu disagreed with Cong Ren's words. She shook her head and said, "Qing Niu left Han Valley and the Great Road appeared in the world. The world has traveled the Road for more than two thousand years. What can a scholar change?"
Cong Ren calmly asked: "Is Hangu Temple still there?"
"No more."
"But I don't know if Yunhu is still there."
Cheng Lu was silent for a while, looking at the shy and shy scholar, she murmured, "Is this called a peerless talent? This is the first time I've seen him."
Cong Ren thought for a moment and said, "Actually, this is not just the first time I've met you."
"What does Uncle Master mean?"
Cong Ren raised his head and glanced at the sky, then looked at Nan Dao who was looking at his finger under the tree, and said: "There is another one here."
Cheng Lu looked there and was stunned.
Of course they heard the conversation between Nan Dao and the woman in the white dress just now.
I just didn't expect that he would actually become a Taoist?
Cheng Lu looked at the touch of heaven and earth energy full of Taoist charm on Nan Dao's finger in shock, and fell into deep thought.
Did I not play enough?
A quarter of an hour ago.
The woman in the white dress told him that if you want to enter the Tao, you first need to feel the existence of the Tao, which is what Yun Hu did not know. In the sixth chapter of the Five Thousand Words of the Green Ox, the immortal goddess of the grain is called the mysterious female. The gate of Xuanfei is called the root of heaven and earth.
Nan Dao asked how he felt, and the girl in the white dress simply taught him a formula, which was used by later generations to meditate internally.
——You must first close your eyes and sit quietly with no distractions, then use your mind to illuminate the roots of the mountain and visualize the bright moon rising from the roots of the mountain. Then there will be heat flow from the center of the eyebrows, leading it into the heavenly spirit, going down to the sandalwood, then back down to the Niwan Palace, and repeat this process. , there is jade liquid produced...
If you have the talent for cultivation, you can see the divine sea that you have never explored.
Nan Dao did as he was told, closing his eyes and looking inside.
Then he froze there.
In the sea of spirits, there was a blindness. When the moon started to rise, a decisive sword came from the sky, cut through the moon, and hung high in the sea of spirits.
The bright moon was split open, shattered into countless silver lights, and dispersed in the divine sea, and then thousands of sword intentions emerged in the divine sea.
Nan Dao was still staring blankly at the changes in his divine sea, when he saw sword intent suddenly shooting out in all directions. Where the initial sword intent was suspended, a peach tree grew rapidly, and the sword intent fell on two On the branches full of peach blossoms. It's like being held by someone.
At the same time, the peach blossom mark on his heart that had been hidden suddenly began to heat up.
The second peach blossom turned blood red.
Nan Dao watched the changes in his body from a strange perspective. As the peach blossom appeared, Nan Dao saw that his blood and meridians were like peach branches. Countless peach blossoms began to bloom, and then quickly withered. , turned into an existence like ashes, flowing into the heart little by little along the blood vessels.
Then the peach blossom mark disappeared again and was no longer visible.
Nan Dao suddenly remembered the man in white who was underwater that night.
And that sentence - my name is Taohua, and I come here holding a sword for you.
It turns out that there are far more unknowns hidden in my body than I imagined.
Nan Dao felt a little excited, but also a lot of fear.
At this time, there was infinite silence in the divine sea, and a gray 'snow' fell down. The blooming peach blossoms and the solemn sword intent quietly stopped in the snow.
Nan Dao didn't know what the heavy snow meant and what the peach blossoms meant.
But he seemed to understand what that sword intention was.
It was his own Grain God, or in other words, he smashed the bright moon and replaced the Grain God that was supposed to exist.
Because the vitality of the outside world is coming from all directions, constantly submerging into the sword intention, like a seed, after experiencing a long period of suppression, it begins to absorb the vitality of the world wildly, wildly growth.
This means that if it exists in a valley, the god of the valley will never die, and it will continue uninterrupted.
So comes the great road.
Nan Dao opened his eyes and looked at the eternal energy of heaven and earth on his finger.
The vitality of heaven and earth has left the body and has obviously entered the Tao.
Just as he was about to ask the woman in the white dress about the things in the divine sea, he saw Cong Ren's calm but profound eyes.
So he took his words back.
Said it lightly.
"I have entered the Tao."
