Yan Shouyi's character is actually very simple. He always likes to let nature take its course without fighting or grabbing. This is what his grandfather taught him.
Therefore, even though the second volume of Lu Ban's book appeared in front of him many times, he was not at all curious about the content in the book.
From the time Chenjiacun got the Book of Lu Ban until now, Yan Shouyi has never mentioned to Yan Qiu the idea of reading the second volume of the Book of Lu Ban.
However, things are different now.
The second volume of Lu Ban's book is actually related to his mother.
Yan Shouyi has never been so eager to know the contents of the second volume of Lu Ban's book.
Gudu!
He swallowed and asked, "Dad, does the second volume of the Book of Luban really record the secret of immortality?"
"There are too many ways to live forever. If Lu Ban Shu only records the ways to live forever, then it has no meaning in existence." Yan Qiu said with a smile.
Does the second volume of Lu Ban’s book have anything to do with immortality?
Yan Qiu said: "If you want to know the contents of the book, you can open it now and take a look."
Hearing this, Yan Shouyi's eyes were fixed on Lu Ban's book.
He didn't rush to see it, but worked hard to build his mind.
According to my father, the content of the second volume of Lu Ban's book seems to be even more extraordinary than the secret of immortality.
But how does this have anything to do with my mother?
But no matter what, after getting the second volume of Lu Ban's book, I will definitely become stronger, and maybe I can rewrite the current pattern of Taoism...
I want to take the next volume of Lu Ban's book as my own...
Suddenly, Yan Shou pushed back half a meter, keeping a distance between himself and the second volume of Lu Ban Shu, with a look of horror on his face.
When Yan Qiu saw this, he frowned and asked, "Is the inner demon attacking again?"
Yan Shouyi smiled bitterly and nodded: "Yes. The inner demon just inspired the greed in my heart. It wanted me to take the second volume of Lu Ban's book as my own."
During these three months, Yan Shouyi suffered from inner demons and his emotions were often out of control, but fortunately he always woke up in time and did not cause harm to the people around him.
The inner demons are growing, but so far, no one has a good way to deal with them.
Three months ago, Yan Shou went on a killing spree, which was actually influenced by his inner demons, but he did not regret that impulse.
Yan Shou rubbed his only remaining eye and whispered:
"The black relic left by Master Miaohui is said to be able to suppress the growth of inner demons, but I still dare not use it until now."
Monk Miaoji clasped his hands together: "Amitabha, the black relic can indeed suppress the growth of inner demons, but it is also an inner demon in another sense. It is better not to use it unless it is absolutely necessary."
The relics are transformed by the merits, compassion and wisdom of the eminent monk during his lifetime, while the black relics are transformed by evil thoughts, greed and resentment.
Yan Shouyi had learned before that the way the black relic suppressed the inner demons was actually to compete with the inner demons for negative emotions.
If Yan Shouyi installs the black relic, the inner demons will be suppressed, but at the same time, another potential threat will be cultivated in his body.
The dog Taoist lit a cigarette and said leisurely: "It's good to have inner demons. You were too kind before. I think it's important for people to stay angry. This is called having a lion in your heart."
"I...I'd better not read the second volume of Lu Ban's book, right?" Yan Shou wanted to restrain his inner demons, so he planned to ignore the second volume of Lu Ban's book that was so close at hand.
Unexpectedly, Yan Qiu said: "No, you must read the second volume of Lu Ban's book, maybe it can also help you suppress your inner demons."
"ah?"
"Don't be stunned, listen to me!" Yan Chou showed his attitude.
Yan Shouyi no longer resisted, sat down at the table, and carefully opened the ancient book that might fall apart at any time.
"The First Ancestor said: There is no way for misfortunes and blessings, only people call for it; the rewards of good and evil follow them like a shadow."
"Therefore, there are gods in heaven and earth who are in charge of faults, and they will be counted according to the seriousness of their crimes. If they are reduced, they will be poor and exhausted, and they will encounter more troubles. Everyone hates them. Punishments and misfortunes will follow, and auspicious stars will avoid them. Evil stars will cause disasters. If you do it, you will die.”
"There are also three Taipei fighting gods who are on people's heads, recording their sins and taking away their records. There are also three corpse gods who are in the human body. Every Gengshen day, they often go to Tiancao to tell people about their sins. On the dark day of the moon, the Kitchen God Same thing."
"Mortal people have mistakes. If they are big, they will be punished, and if they are small, they will be punished. There are hundreds of things in the world. Those who want to live forever must first avoid them."
Just the first few paragraphs made Yan Shouyi extremely surprised.
The content of the second volume of Lu Ban's book is not a method of immortality, nor is it a forbidden secret technique, but an ancient article written by an unknown person.
Judging from its content, it seems to be advising people to practice good deeds.
Doing good deeds will bring you blessings and blessings for your descendants; doing bad deeds will bring you punishment and bring disaster to your descendants.
However, although it is not a method of immortality, after Yan Shouyi read it, he felt refreshed, his inner demons were suppressed, his emotions and desires were at peace, and he only wanted to do good.
"How can the content of the second volume of Lu Ban's book be a scripture?" Yan Shouyi couldn't understand.
Yan Qiu smiled: "Why can't it be a scripture?"
"But so many people fought for it to death, and even a descendant of Luban lost his life to protect it. If it is just a scripture, wouldn't it be better to just hand it over?"
Yan Qiu dropped a bombshell: "It's not that simple. On the surface, it is a scripture. In fact, it is the key to solving the five shortcomings and three shortcomings of folk sects and the disaster of death."
"What!?"
Yan Shouyi was so surprised that he even stood up.
He couldn't help but read the scriptures several times, but he still couldn't find any way to solve the five evils, three shortcomings and the disaster of death.
Could it be hidden in some mezzanine?
Or maybe it's an acrostic?
Do you need a special method to see it?
Yan Shouyi wanted to try it, but was afraid of damaging Lu Ban Shu.
He could only ask Yan Chou for help.
"Don't read it. There is no direct record of the method in the book. This method is your grandfather's guess." Yan Qiu said lightly.
"Dad, please stop being so pretentious and explain it quickly!" Yan Shouyi said depressedly.
Yan Qiu finally decided to tell the truth:
"Have you ever thought about why famous sects are famous sects? They also have to learn various spells and know how to kill demons. In essence, there should be no difference between them and folk sects... But you should also know that... The difference is that disciples of famous sects need to chant sutras and recite Buddha's teachings, meditate, eat fast, and have various precepts, and they spend much more time on cultivating their minds than on cultivating their abilities."
"Based on this difference, your grandfather boldly speculated that if the heirs of folk sects want to avoid the five evils, three shortcomings and death, they must have their own collection of classics just like Taoism and Buddhism, so that the heirs of folk sects can also practice Buddhism first. Cultivate virtue in your heart, and then cultivate your abilities... In this way, the folk sect will no longer be a short-term sect, but a truly famous sect!"
"The second volume of the Book of Lu Ban is a scripture jointly written by generations of descendants of Lu Ban. It advises people to do good and emphasizes the cycle of cause and effect. It is a combination of Taoist and Buddhist system concepts. If it can be perfected, it will eventually spread Come on, all the followers of folk sects will use it to cultivate their minds - then, folk sects will get rid of the curse of five evils, three shortcomings and fate!!!"
