...
There are three treasures in spiritual practice: energy, energy and spirit.
Therefore, although there are many different schools of practice in the world, hundreds of schools of thought contend.
But at its root, it is nothing more than nourishing essence, refining qi, and preserving spirit.
Some methods focus on nourishing essence, some focus on refining qi, some focus on preserving spirit, that’s all.
This "Hunyuan Form Refining" focuses on "form refining".
"Hunyuan Lianxing" gathers the Qi of the sun and moon to support the heart, liver, lungs, facial features, hair and other Yuanjun of the body. It takes the path of gathering the Hunyuan Qi of Yin and Yang to nourish the Yuanjun of the physical body, and the Yuanjun transforms into a spirit. , in the end, the form and spirit are wonderful, and the golden elixir is perfected.
In addition to the "Hunyuan Lianxing" exercises, the Taoist priest also gave a Taoist scripture "The Three Officials Sutra".
The three officials are the Heaven Official, the Earth Official, and the Water Official.
The "blessing from heavenly officials" that people often say comes from here.
The full name of "The Three Officials Sutra" is "The Supreme Three Yuan Sutra of Blessings, Forgiving Sins, Relieving Disasters, Prolonging Life and Preserving Life". It is one of the Taoist sutras.
Lingshan Sect is no exception.
Before practicing the Taoism of the Lingshan School, you need to study the essence of the "Three Officials Sutra", understand the Tao Sutra, and master the mantras such as the mantra for calming the soul and the soul, the mantra for purifying the mouth and body, and the mantra for peace, earth, heaven and earth, etc. , can you start practicing the Lingshan School's practice method "Hunyuan Form Refining".
That night, the group did not continue on their way.
After the Taoist Master accepted Chu Chen as his disciple, many Xuanmen magic powers were no longer concealed.
With a flick of his sleeve, a camp appeared out of thin air. He chanted the mantra to launch troops, and the soldiers and horses set up camp and stayed in the mountains for the night.
Seeing this "world in one's sleeve" made Chu Chen's heart itch.
No wonder there are so many things in the small bookcase behind me. It turns out that the bookcase is just a cover-up, and the real things are in the "sleeves".
Treasure Taoist Priest doesn't have to run away anymore, he even has storage spells.
Chu Chen looked envious.
This spell must be learned in the future.
It's night, the moon is bright, the stars are few, and the breeze is blowing.
The Taoist master was extremely competent and spent the whole night teaching Chu Chen the "Three Officials Sutra".
.....
The next day.
The master and apprentice finally entered the boundaries of Xin'an County.
As soon as he entered the territory of Xin'an County, Chu Chen finally saw his master's face.
Along the road, every time you pass a village, if there is a land temple in the village, the sages and squires will bring the villagers out of the village to greet them and treat them with great courtesy.
"I've met the mage!"
"A new mage has arrived in our county!"
"I look forward to the stars and the moon, and finally I hope you, the Master, are here."
The scene was quite big, with loud gongs and drums, firecrackers blasting, and a sea of people.
The villagers cheered and the noodles were packed.
This scene surprised Chu Chen.
He could tell that the smiles of the common people and villagers came from their hearts, rather than being involuntarily brought in to be the atmosphere team.
The Taoist priest stayed in every village for a short time, and after one face-to-face meeting, he left in a hurry.
Chu Chen thought that his master was low-key, did not pay attention to ostentation, and worked honestly.
Well, this is in line with Taoist priest's usual personality.
However, what happened next shocked him.
Instead of rushing straight to Xin'an County, Taoist priest Xu Ping deliberately took a detour and went to other villages, one after another, to receive a grand welcome from the villagers...
Good guy!
This does not mean that it is about pomp and circumstance, but it is very particular about it!
This...Master, your character has collapsed again!
Chu Chen looked strange.
Who could have imagined that a Taoist priest with an upright and serious face would actually...
Just after leaving a village, Taoist Master Xu Ping looked at his new disciple. Xu guessed something and said calmly:
"In the Department of Ghost and God Control of Xin'an County, the post of Director has been vacant for many days."
"In the past six months, ghosts, gods, demons, and strange things have occurred frequently in various places. The people in the county are panic-stricken. I am a master of the seventh-grade Yuanhua Master. I have been promoted to the city god and other immortal positions and appointed as the Xin'an Ghost and God City Supervisor. The first thing I do when I take office is to calm the people's hearts. "
Chu Chen suddenly realized.
In other words, the purpose of the Taoist leader's visit to the village is to tell the people that if they encounter ghosts and ghosts, they should come to the county to find him.
This is clearly the responsibility and practice of the Taoist priest.
"Oh, so that's it. How did the villagers know our whereabouts and identity..."
Taoist priest Xu Ping took out a golden seal from his sleeve and presented it in front of Chu Chen.
"This seal is the seal of the City God of Xin'an. Wearing this seal on your body will declare the power of the Dharma Seal. All the land of the City God in Xin'an will feel it. You have not entered the Tao and cannot be seen by the naked eye. In fact, the land and the ghost officials We also welcome him among the people."
Chu Chen was secretly surprised.
Taoism, ghosts and gods, earth creatures, demons, a magical world of ghosts and gods slowly opened to him, and he was immersed in it.
...
At the end of the day, the master and apprentice ran a large circle around the county town.
The villages in Xin'an County are dotted and scattered, and it is obviously unrealistic to visit them all.
Let alone one day, I probably won’t be able to run for several days.
However, the two masters and apprentices can be considered as a group, and the people in the southeast, northwest and northwest all know that Taoist Xu Ping has taken office.
Even if you don’t know it at the time, word will soon spread.
In this way, the Taoist priest's purpose can be regarded as achieved.
In the evening, as the sunset glowed across their faces, the master and the apprentice arrived at the gate of the county town.
The scene in the county seat was even bigger.
Xin'an County Magistrate's surname is Xu Mingwei. He was born in a prestigious position, condensed Confucianism and Taoism.
The county magistrate is at the same level as Taoist Xu Ping, the seventh rank.
The county magistrate is the head of a county and is in charge of all affairs of the county.
Theoretically, Magistrate Xu is still the superior of Taoist Xu Ping.
But Magistrate Xu is extremely polite.
The Taoist priest took office today. Magistrate Xu, together with the county magistrate, county chief registrar, dianshi, yamen clerks, squad leaders, as well as the county's well-known gentry and big businessmen, all waited at the city gate to greet him early.
Plus the people watching the excitement.
This scene can be said to be quite lively, and the lineup is sufficient.
Standing behind the Taoist Priest, Chu Chen was treated with great courtesy by the Taoist Priest. From the officials in the county to the gentry and common people, they were all greeted with smiles and politeness.
"Good guy, Lao Xu has great thighs."
Chu Chen felt that this master was a good one and he had a bright future.
