Seeing that the ancient silk book had turned yellow, Chang Sheng knew that it was an old thing, and maybe it was the original of Longhu Mountain's magic. "Uncle Master, shouldn't I read this secret book?"
"There is nothing wrong with you," Zhang Mo said casually, "Read it earlier and return it to me earlier."
Hearing what Zhang Mo said, Changsheng took the secret book with both hands. The four words "Luo Tian Secret Technique" on the cover turned out to be ancient seal script from the Qin and Han Dynasties. This also confirmed his guess that this was the original secret book.
"Uncle, such an important thing..."
Before Changsheng could finish speaking, Zhang Mo interrupted him with a wave of his hand, "The spells inside can be roughly divided into two categories, one is for living people or living creatures, and the other is for ghosts. Taoist priests walk the path of heaven and help the world and save the people. Therefore, heaven sends spells to help Taoists do good and eliminate evil. After learning it, you must distinguish right from wrong and use it with caution."
"Yes, Uncle Master, I remember what you said." Changsheng nodded solemnly.
Zhang Mo said again, "This is the original text of Luotian's secret method. It has not been deleted. All the spells in Longhu Mountain are recorded in it. There are many that should not be studied by Taoists with other surnames. There are many amazingly powerful spells in it. You You must remember not to abuse it. You must know that yin and yang are equal and the way of heaven is clear. If you use spells that you should not use, your life will be shortened."
Hearing Zhang Mo's words, Chang Sheng nodded sternly. What Zhang Mo said was not exaggerated. His former teacher Luo Yangzi was a lesson learned from the past. Luo Yangzi probably used spells that he shouldn't have used in the process of searching for the ancient tomb, which caused him to not grow old. Premature aging, full head of gray hair.
Zhang Mo said again, "Most of the spells in Longhu Mountain require drawing and writing spells. Don't throw away the practice drafts at will, lest anyone who is interested learns about it and steals it."
"Yes." Changsheng nodded again.
After explaining the business, Zhang Mo walked out of the room and came outside the hospital.
Changsheng put the Luotian Secret Technique in his arms and followed Zhang Mo out of the room.
The courtyard where Changsheng lived was originally a cave where tigers lived. Outside the cave was a piece of bluestone about ten feet square. It was supposed to be the place where the tiger lay down. Later, when the courtyard wall was being built, it was also inserted in. Zhang Mo sat on the bluestone. , turned to look at Changsheng, "I want to ask you something personal, do you like Ni Chenyi?"
"I don't know if I like it or not." Changsheng told the truth.
"Ni Chenyi's father's name is Ni Tuo. He is not only the richest man in Chang'an, but also the richest man in the Tang Dynasty. As far as I know, this man has a deep background both in the temple and in the green forest," Zhang Mo said, "You If you want to date Ni Chenyi, you must first obtain his approval. When you go to Chang'an this time, Ni Chenyi will definitely take you to see him, so you must watch his words and respond carefully."
"Uncle, I don't want to date her," Changsheng shook his head and said, "I just want to be a Taoist priest in Longhu Mountain, not her son-in-law."
Zhang Mo smiled and didn't talk about it anymore. Instead, he pointed at Young Master Hei and said, "We will leave for Chang'an in more than ten days. Who are you going to feed this black horse?"
"It's almost weaned and should be able to ride, but Taoist priests can't ride horses..."
"Only incompetent people stick to the rules. Why don't you just ride in Taoist robes?" Zhang Mo said casually.
"Can you ride?" Chang Sheng was overjoyed.
"Of course." Zhang Mo nodded.
"Okay, I'll go to town and put a saddle on it in the next few days." Changsheng smiled.
Zhang Mo nodded and stood up, "Okay, if there's nothing else to do, I'll leave first. You've already achieved greatness and your future is limitless. Don't be distracted for no reason and become complacent and slack."
Changsheng responded repeatedly and sent Zhang Mo out.
After going out, Changsheng did not stop outside, but accompanied Zhang Mo to the east, "Uncle Master, who from Luo family will go to Chang'an with us?"
"My eldest brother will go in person." Zhang Mo replied.
Zhang Mo's answer surprised Chang Sheng. You must know that Zhang Shan is the abbot of Longhu Mountain. He personally took action to explain that Longhu Mountain attaches great importance to this competition.
Without waiting for Chang Sheng to ask, Zhang Mo took the initiative and said, "This time the imperial court summoned people from the martial arts community to compete in Chang'an for the sole purpose of recruiting talents. No matter who wins or loses in the competition, they will be ordered to be recruited by the imperial court. It is nothing more than the size of the official position. Anyone who receives No one in the sect of the imperial edict wants to retreat and be alone. In this case, it is better to defeat the heroes, enter the temple, sacrifice oneself for the world, and assist the king."
"Is this the abbot's own intention or the imperial court's intention?" Changsheng asked.
"Both," Zhang Mo nodded, "In times of trouble, we always have to do something for the world. It is certainly the duty of a Taoist to subjugate demons, but it is often not demons that bring disaster to the country and people, but evil people."
Zhang Mo paused for a moment before Chang Sheng could answer, and said again, "Taoists are different from monks. They passively avoid the world and have nothing to do with the world. Taoists care about the people, are loyal and patriotic, and the Tang Dynasty is in turmoil. Big brother can turn the tide before it falls." He has the heart to support the building before it collapses. If we can really rectify the source and revive the government, we will save millions of people in the world."
Hearing Zhang Mo's words, Changsheng knew that Zhang Shan was concerned about the world, worried about the people, and wanted to serve as an official in the court.
Zhang Mo always talked more when the two were together, and it was no different this time. Zhang Mo moved to the east and continued, "The reason why I gave Luotian Secret Technique to you to study and memorize is because it is your top priority right now. The emphasis is on practicing martial arts rather than learning spells. The official date of the martial arts competition is the seventh day of the next month. There are still less than twenty days. During this period, you must seize the time to practice martial arts in order to be a blockbuster on the day of the competition. You should memorize the Taoist skills first. Come down and wait until he has time to think about it carefully."
"Okay." Changsheng nodded.
"And you have to be prepared. If you leave the mountain this time, you may not be able to come back." Zhang Mo sighed.
"Can't you come back?" Changsheng didn't quite understand.
"I am a woman, and the court will not appoint women as officials. After the competition, I will return to Longhu Mountain," Zhang Mo said, "But you are a man. If you are better than the others in the competition, the court will definitely appoint you an official."
"I don't want to be an official." Changsheng Haosheng was worried. He liked the environment and atmosphere of Longhu Mountain very much and didn't want to leave here.
"It's not up to you." Zhang Mo shook his head.
While the two were talking, they came to the stone road up the mountain. Zhang Mo encouraged him a few more words, and then climbed the steps up the mountain.
Changsheng watched Zhang Mo leave, then turned around and returned.
When he returned to his residence, he immediately closed the door and took out the Luotian Secret Technique.
He has an extraordinary understanding and a photographic memory, and can even recite complex medical techniques word for word, not to mention this ancient book recording magic spells.
As Zhang Mo said before, magic can be divided into two parts. One is the magic that acts on yang things, and the other is the magic that acts on yin things. Taoists believe that everything in the world is condensed and transformed by the two qi of yin and yang. The essence of magic It is to borrow the spiritual energy of heaven and earth through spells, mantras, and acupoints to exert a waxing or waning influence on various things that are formed by the condensation of yin and yang.
People in the world don’t know why, and their understanding of magic is very one-sided. They think that magic is only for catching ghosts. It’s not wrong to think that magic can catch ghosts, but magic can not only be used to catch ghosts, but can also be used to subjugate demons, but “demon” is not the same. This is not a correct statement. There is no separate word "demon" in Luotian's secret method. Instead, it is called monsters and goblins. It is very awkward for experts to use the word "demon" alone to describe aliens who can cause harm if they have the Taoism. one thing.
In addition to catching ghosts and subduing demons, spells can also be used to cure diseases and prolong life, strengthen oneself and injure enemies, escape from earth through walls, move quickly and become invisible, and even summon wind and rain, sow beans into soldiers, and so on, etc., it is all-encompassing.
Spells can be roughly divided into two major uses: detection and change. For example, ordinary people cannot see ghosts and ghosts, but Taoist priests can see them by casting spells. For another example, ordinary people naturally don't know what is hidden underground, but Taoist priests can also use corresponding spells to detect and perceive. Such spells can be classified as discernment.
The spell that Zhang Mo used to immobilize the ewe is a change. Of course, there are far more spells used to change yin and yang. In fact, 30% of the spells in Longhu Mountain are used for discernment, and 70% are used for Correction changes.
Anyone else would be overjoyed and inexplicably excited when they see the magic being so mysterious and so powerful. However, Changsheng becomes more and more nervous and feels heavier the more he looks at it. As Zhang Mo said before, Yin and Yang are balanced to the smallest detail. Unhappy, the more overbearing the spell, the more serious the consequences if used incorrectly, directly shortening one's life, more or less.
But after thinking about it again, I felt relieved. Everything needs to be restrained, and the same is true for spells. If there are no restraints and restrictions, and the Taoist can do whatever he wants according to his own wishes, it will be completely chaotic...
