that's all.

The "Medicine Fairy Club" fell silent again, and the confusing "bait" sent by Jin Gu also embarked on a journey to attract the company's attention.

More than two months is neither long nor short. If you want to hold the company back, you need to plan carefully.

At the same time, several people from Youfang who were thousands of kilometers away were still unaware of the situation in Guangxi. At this moment, they had already visited the "Ksitigarbha Temple" on Jiuhua Mountain and had a look at Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. The grand scene of the dojo.

Next, they left Anhui and went to Henan as planned to continue their travels.

After several days of journey, several people entered Henan, and then after another long journey, they finally arrived at Songshan Mountain.

In the world view under one person, Songshan Shaolin Temple is the leader of Chinese Buddhist sects, and Master Jiekong, who ranks high among the "Third Masters" and who still displays his miraculous abilities even though his cultivation is completely useless, was born in this Shaolin Temple. middle.

Not only that, there has always been a reputation in the world of martial arts as “Shaolin is the birthplace of martial arts in the world.” This shows that the Kung Fu of Shaolin Temple is of many types and all-encompassing, and can be called the root of martial arts in the world.

If you had not obtained the complete martial arts secret book of Shaolin Temple from Master Jie Kong before, You Fang would have stayed a while longer to experience Shaolin Kung Fu thoroughly, even though he has mastered most of Shaolin Kung Fu now. Regarding the skills, you should still be prepared to practice more and improve your understanding.

As before, upon entering the Shaolin Temple, the visitor directly knocked on the door with courtesy. After obtaining the status of "Yuanren", he was immediately treated with great courtesy by the monks in the Shaolin Temple.

In this way, the subsequent arrangements were logical and natural. The contemporary abbot of Shaolin Temple directly arranged the room with the best conditions for them, and also put the discussion on the agenda.

In this way, in the next three days, You Fang and others were almost completely immersed in sparring and practice. Even Tang Yingjie, who had no interest in sparring at first, joined in and continued to communicate with the Shaolin Temple from morning to night. The monks fight against each other.

After all, this is definitely a rare opportunity for several people to practice actual combat, and all the monks in Shaolin Temple have strong martial arts and profound skills, so they are perfect as whetstones!

After these three days of short training, not to mention Hong Bin and the other four, even You Fang has improved a lot in terms of martial arts skills and movement and movement, and the various skills he had mastered before have become more perfect. .

The results of these three days were hundreds of times better than what they had imagined. When the three days were over, everyone was full of energy and rosy-cheeked. It was obvious that they had made some realizations and breakthroughs.

Up to this point, the practice of the few people in the Shaolin Temple was almost done. At this time, You Fang also felt something, so he climbed to the top of Songshan Mountain and painted a new painting, which is - "The Angry-Eye King Kong" !

In his eyes, the monks of the Shaolin Temple were equivalent to the guardians of Buddhism who used force to protect the Tao, and the appearance of "Vajra Angry Eyes" was exactly in line with them.

After that, they bid farewell to the monks in the Shaolin Temple and embarked on their journey of travel again, heading north to a mountain village deep in the mountains.

They spent a lot of effort to find the location of this mountain village and even asked the company for help. The location is quite hidden and cannot be discovered by ordinary people.

As for the reason, it is because in the eyes of ordinary people, this village can be called a "creepy" ghost village. Even if there is nothing white in the village, white cloth strips are hung everywhere, even on a bright sunny day. Extremely cold.

Of course, although the root cause is related to ghosts, it is not a legendary village with strange powers and chaotic gods. It is because what this village inherits is a secret technique called "carrying banners to buy water", which is a branch of the wizard sect.

The so-called "carrying flags and buying water" literally refers to the two processes that were necessary for the burial and funeral of the deceased in ancient times...

Among them, "buying water" refers to the ancient practice of bathing the deceased before burial in order for the soul to reach its destination smoothly.

At that time, a filial son had to wear a "three-beam crown", wear hemp barefoot, hold a mourning stick in his hand, hold a "water bag" and a tile bowl, go to the waterside with his relatives in tears, and invest a penny to "buy water". Wash the corpse.

In this process, the person who "buys water" is only a short distance away from the corpse and has to wash his face, so it has another name: "bathing the corpse."

Precisely because this process requires a certain amount of courage, only those who are close to it can proceed smoothly. In addition, as it is a manifestation of filial piety, the son of the deceased is usually responsible for this.

As for "carrying a sail", it means that on the day of the funeral, the dutiful son held a stick with a white strip of cloth tied to the end that flew in the wind, called a flag, for the purpose of announcing the funeral.

Because its meaning is to lead the souls of the dead to ascend to heaven, it is also called "soul-guiding flag", which can prevent the souls of the dead from getting lost and becoming wild ghosts.

In addition, there is another step that is equally important as "carrying flags and buying water", which is "crying at the grave", which is a primitive means of communicating with souls and embodies the ancients' desire to communicate with their deceased relatives.

Therefore, wealthy families often choose children with good facial features to dress up as "filial sons and grandsons" to carry flags and buy water on their behalf, and then cry at the grave after erecting a monument to show the prosperity of the family and the sincerity of the descendants.

Of course, this is just the ordinary meaning of "carrying flags to buy water", and the original intention is just a thought, but in the alien world, it has a real effect.

The Henan "carrying banners to buy water" group uses "soul-attracting banners" coated with corpse oil to attract the souls of the dead, and uses special witchcraft methods to use the dead souls to practice. The method is to "cry the grave". Drive the undead and achieve various weird effects.

At the same time, precisely because it is a school of "playing ghosts", this village has also gone into hiding. Its purpose is also very simple, that is to avoid trouble...

After all, from ancient times to the present, many travelers have been greatly frightened after accidentally entering this village during their journeys. The people in the village did not want to see such a situation, so they chose to live in seclusion.

Speaking of which, there is one person in Quanxing who comes from this village of "carrying banners to buy water". In the original development, he showed his prominence at Luotian Dajiao, and he can be regarded as a master.

But as far as its methods are concerned, if it doesn't have the skills to restrain the soul, or the cultivation level of "nature" is strong and strong, it will be quite troublesome once it encounters it.

It was precisely because he thought of that guy and found his methods very interesting that Yu Fang chose to come and visit. Otherwise, there was no need for him to visit such a small and reclusive sect.

Facts have proved that he really came to the right place this time. After some exchanges and discussions, he gained a lot of insights into "witchcraft", and the power of the "Twelve Beasts Eating Ghost Picture" in his hand also became more powerful. There has been a big improvement!

Of course, in addition to You Fang, Xia Mingyu, who is also a branch of the "Wizard" lineage, also has a lot of insights, especially in terms of "soul".

After some experience and comparison, he discovered that the method of "carrying banners and buying water" to attract the dead was similar to the method of "Wu Nuo" to attract the willpower into the body. However, after attracting, The two have different uses for the two powers and have their own uniqueness.

But because of this, he couldn't help but start to think, if the thinking undead can be driven through secret methods, then whether the "wishes" that have no thoughts and are just condensed by countless mixed thoughts can also be driven. Woolen cloth?

There is no doubt that this is a path worth exploring. After all, with the deepening of his cultivation and the deepening of his understanding of the "Wu Nuo" method, Xia Mingyu has become more and more aware of the limitations and disadvantages of the "Wu Nuo" method. , if you want to really break through the shackles, you have to find another way and find a solution from other paths.

It has to be said that Xia Mingyu's ambitions are quite great. Although he is still in the stage of "Second Level Divine Mask", he has already thought of extremely lofty goals...

In his opinion, the power of "replacing God with oneself" possessed by the legendary "third-level godhead mask" may not be the true ultimate, because while gaining powerful power, it also means that he is completely bound to the world. In the "divine head", this does not seem to be the ultimate path of cultivation, but...

Like a "bottleneck"!

Especially after meeting a few people from You Fang and following them through Buddhism and Taoism, this feeling became stronger and stronger, making Xia Mingyu feel that if the "Witch and Nuo" lineage could truly break through the shackles of wish power, it might also be possible. We have to start from "one's own life" and cannot blindly rely on "external force" such as "willpower".

"Wish power" and "godhead" should only be means, and should not be the foundation of practice. In his imagination, if the "Wu Nuo" lineage can turn the original "substituting oneself for God" into something like "Tao of Talisman" "The same lineage of "calling gods with talismans" and "driving gods with force" can also "invite gods to come forward" when needed, and perhaps they will enter a new world.

If it were in the past, Xia Mingyu would have felt that this idea was very far-fetched. After all, the "Wood and Nuo" method has been developed for so long since ancient times. Even today, it is very difficult to even slightly improve it. Let alone "innovation".

But the appearance of You Fang and the method of "drawing monsters" that he carried made him see the possibility of real realization. This method of "drawing monsters" can be said to be perfectly in line with his ideas, and even more important. More than that, so after having this idea, he communicated more with You Fang.

After leaving the village, the group's travel arrangements in Henan were almost in progress. After some repairs, they set off again.

Following the established route all the way north, it took another three or four days for several people to cross the provincial border and enter Shanxi. In order of distance, they began a new round of visits.

The first stop for the five people in Shanxi was in Yuncheng. There is "Yongle Town" on the east side of Longquan Village about 3 kilometers north of Ruicheng County in Yuncheng. "Yongle Palace" is one of the three ancestral palaces in Quanzhen. here.

Yongle Palace, formerly known as "Dachunyang Wanshou Palace", was built to commemorate Lu Dongbin, one of the Eight Immortals, also known as "Lu Zu". It got this common name because it is located in Yongle Town.

This "Lu Zu" is a well-known legend and figure among the people, and in the world of aliens, especially in the Taoist sect, his status is also very important.

Like "Zhuge Kongming" and "Zhang Sanfeng", he is also one of the strongest strangers in the history of Chinese strangers. His deeds and legends are countless, and he is still admired by countless strangers to this day.

As for his real name, it is "Lv Yan". He was a native of Hezhongfu in Puzhou, Hedong Province in the Tang Dynasty. His courtesy name was Dongbin, and his nicknames were Chunyangzi and Yankezi. He claimed to be a Huidao person and lived by his characters. He was known as "Lü Dongbin" in the world. He is the founder of the Taoist Danding Sect and is known as the "Miao Dao Tianzun".

His teacher was Zhong Liquan, and later he taught to Liu Haichan and Wang Chongyang. He was revered by Quanzhen Taoism as one of the "Five Northern Patriarchs". Because he entered the world and became a saint, his legends and deeds were spread among the people, and he was ranked among the "Eight Immortals".

According to the description of Lu Dongbin's appearance in "The Complete Biography of Immortals":

"Born with golden wood, Taoist bones, fairy wind, crane crowning turtle's back, tiger body, dragon's cheeks, and phoenix eyes pointing to the sky, eyebrows set into temples and neck, cheekbones exposed, wide forehead, round body, straight face, white and yellow face, a sunspot on the corner of the left eyebrow and a sunspot on the foot Like a turtle, it is eight feet and two inches long and wears a Huayang scarf."

It can be seen that he is indeed an innate immortal Taoist. In terms of cultivation, he is also extremely talented and has a high level of understanding. His golden elixir method has been continuously studied and developed by later generations, and he has reached the peak of the Taoist sect today!

In addition to his spiritual practice, Lu Dongbin’s deeds are also legendary...

According to "Chen Xing Lu" and "Yueyang Customs Records" during the Northern Song Dynasty:

"During the Zhidao period of the Northern Song Dynasty, when Lu Dongbin passed Yueyang, he rested under an ancient pine tree in the south of the city. An old monk came down from the top of the tree, bowed to him, gave him pitiful advice, and said that he was Lu Xian. Dongbin was very strange and shocked. If a person is extraordinary, I will give him a pill of elixir and write a poem on the wall."

This is to use the Tao to enlighten the Buddha, break down the sectarian views, and help people ascend to heaven!

During the Southern Song Dynasty, according to the autobiography of Lu Zu in Volume 18 of "Neng Gai Zhai Man Lu" written by Wu Zeng, Lu Dongbin once said:

"The world says that I flew my sword to take a human head, and I chopped it off. There are actually three swords. One cuts off the worries of ignorance, the second cuts off the anger of ignorance, and the third cuts off greed and desire."

This is a direct reference to his move of "slaying three corpses with a sword", which is cool, natural, relaxed and plain!

It is precisely because of these legends that after arriving at Yongle Palace, the five people from You Fang all tried their best to understand, and they all wanted to pursue even the slightest bit of Lu Zu's immortal talent in order to understand the Tao...

After exchanging ideas about the golden elixir and practicing the Chunyang Sword Technique passed down by Lu Zu, everyone gained insights and began to meditate in the guest rooms.

Among the five people, the ones who have the deepest impression of the Tao taught by Lu Zu are undoubtedly You Fang and Fu Chen. Both of them are considered to be members of the Taoist sect, and they both practice "inner elixir".

Fu Chen needless to say, the Dan method and sword method of the Longmen lineage originally came from Lu Zu. After this experience, various insights have become more profound...

After reading the unique golden elixir book of Yongle Palace, You Fang immediately thought of the "World Cauldron" in his body. There was undoubtedly something in common between the two. After some study, he also thought Benefited deeply.

Later, after two days of meditation, You Fang drew a "sword" in the room, then said goodbye to the Taoist priests in Yongle Palace and set off again.

Three days later, everyone arrived at Mianshan in Changzhi and visited the "Mianshan Daluo Palace".

Like "Longhu Mountain" and "Yongle Palace", the "Mianshan Daluo Palace" is also an important gate of Taoism. Although it is not called the "ancestral palace", it is also quite legendary.

According to legend, the person who built the "Mianshan Daluo Palace" was "Jie Zitui" during the Spring and Autumn Period. He was originally a famous scholar in the Spring and Autumn Period and followed the prince Chong'er. Later, after Jin Wen Gong returned from exile, he did not ask for any reward, but took the His mother retired to the mountains and forests and came to Mianshan.

While in seclusion, he inadvertently started the path of spiritual practice while comprehending the mountains and rivers of heaven, earth, and mountains. Since then, he has been out of control, and his realm has soared all the way.

Although there are rumors in history that Jie Zitui died in seclusion, it is generally believed in the alien world that he may have attained enlightenment and become a flying immortal.

As for the reason, it is that the name "Daluo Palace" comes again...

Above Sanqing, there is Yujing Mountain. On the mountain, there are seven treasure trees covering Luotian in all directions, called Daluo!

This is the highest realm of Taoism - "Da Luo Fairyland", and the name "Da Luo" was derived from Jie Zitui!

It is precisely because of this that the "Mianshan Daluo Palace" will be known as the "No. 1 Taoist Temple in the World" in later generations. During the Li and Tang Dynasties, it was used as the last intermediary point between shaman culture and Taoist culture, bringing together almost all recorded temples. All the gods of that time.

Historically, this place was used as a place of pilgrimage for the Li and Tang royal families to the Taoist immortals. During the Republic of China, this place was also the main battlefield for the Tang clan to fight against the Japanese Bihe Ninja. The world's storms always surged here, as you can see The magic is revealed!

"Feel it well, this is a strange 'qi situation', which will be of great benefit to enlightenment!" The moment You Fang set foot on this Mianshan Mountain, Gu Jiating's voice rang in his ears, giving him guidance. .

As the owner of "Daluo Cave" and an in-depth researcher of "Qi Bureau", Gu Jiating will naturally not be here for the first time, but even so, his tone is still full of excitement. Affection.

For him, if the "Twenty-four Sections of Tongtian Valley" is a place where "mortals hear the Tao", then this "Mianshan Daluo" is the place where "the Tao is enlightened and ascended". No matter how many times he comes, he can always learn something new. comprehend.

However, although the atmosphere here is strange, it also attaches great importance to "fate". If you want to truly realize the Tao here, "timing", "geographical convenience", "humanity", "mind", "cultivation"... All the other conditions are indispensable, otherwise even if you practice hard here, the most you can do is speed up your understanding, and there may even be side effects of "haste makes waste."

"Well, it's really amazing!"

And with the help of his "Baize Kanshu", You Fang also saw some clues. The Taoist charm here is very strong, and the heaven and earth seem to blend here, showing a "transcendent" color.

But as Gu Jiating reminds me, since the Taoist rhythm here is like running water, it is constantly changing and flowing. Without the right fate and the right opportunity, even if you practice hard here, you will not be able to achieve real great gains.

Therefore, the most important thing for the five people during this trip to the "Mianshan Daluo Palace" was to observe and experience, to feel the power of the "Daluo Palace" talismans, and to feel the unique charm of Mianshan Mountain.

Two days later, the tourist climbed to the top in the early morning. Facing the east, his eyes were full of purple energy. With a splash of ink, he combined the results from "Yongle Palace" and "Daluo Palace" to create the "Green Ox Picture" and "Turtle Shell Picture" Adding a few more strokes makes the distance between the two pictures completely closer.

At the same time, with the help of his experience of the way of talismans, his "Kunpeng Diagram" has also made new breakthroughs. Its power is stronger and more integrated with himself, which can be regarded as a huge gain.

After that, the five people left Mianshan and headed north again, passing through Jinzhong and Taiyuan. After more than four days of travel, they arrived in Xinzhou.

What you want to visit when you come to Xinzhou is naturally "Wutai Mountain". Like "Putuo Mountain" and "Jiuhua Mountain", it is also a famous Buddhist mountain and is the dojo of the legendary "Manjusri Bodhisattva".

Just like they did at Mount Putuo, the five of them felt the strong power of aspiration as soon as they arrived at the foot of Mount Wutai. With the help of observation techniques, they could even see the faint shadow of the Bodhisattva floating on the top of the mountain.

Unlike the compassionate "Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva" and the "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva" with great aspirations, "Manjushri Bodhisattva" has a very calm face, with the light of reason in his eyes, showing "the appearance of wisdom".

At the same time, there are also many Buddhist temples on Mount Wutai. Unlike the unity of Mount Putuo, they include almost all sects of Chinese Buddhism, which can be said to be "a large number of sects."

Because of this, the Buddhist sects on Mount Wutai basically do not need to have much contact with the Buddhist sects outside the mountain. They can carry out eight sects of communication within themselves. Under such development, a situation of "common prosperity" has been formed.

You Fang and others are naturally very happy about this. Their purpose of traveling is to increase their knowledge and exchange practice. It is really a good thing to be able to see the characteristics of the eight sects of Buddhism at once.

Therefore, they stayed here longer in order to experience all the powers of the eight sects. It took about a week before they finally completed all the exchanges and digested all the insights.

In the early morning of the seventh day, just like before, You Fang climbed up again, looked at the shadow of "Manjusri Bodhisattva" on the top of Mount Wutai, and began to wave...

In a moment, a majestic green "green lion" appeared on the paper. This is the mount of Manjushri Bodhisattva, and it is also a symbol of "wisdom".

Among the mounts of the four Bodhisattvas, the "golden-haired dragon" represents bravery and fearlessness, the "truth listening" represents being knowledgeable and good at listening, and the "green lion" represents "seeing through troubles."

When the green lion roars, there is no worries or worries. This is also an improvement in one's mind. It is the advancement of the path of "nature", and it is also the biggest gain of the trip to Mount Wutai.

Since then, the trip to Mount Wutai has come to an end. Several people bid farewell to the abbots of the temples and went straight down the mountain.

At this point, the forces in Shanxi have almost visited, and the You Fang group set off again, heading west towards Shaanxi.

Four days later.

The five tourists arrived in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province. After resting for a night and visiting several scenic spots in Xi'an, they set off again.

However, since the two major forces they wanted to visit this time were both in Xi'an, they didn't have to travel all the way, so they walked around and looked around. After wandering around, they came to Jiajia Village in Lintong District.

This Jiajia Village is the birthplace of the brothers Jia Zhengyu and Jia Zhengliang in Under One Person. It is also the location of the Jia family, a famous "weapon refining family" in the alien world and known as the "Sword Immortal Family".

Due to the "weapon refining" method passed down by the family from generation to generation, as well as the special and powerful methods of "controlling objects" and "transforming objects", the Jia family's status in the world is not as good as that of the four major families, but it can still be regarded as a powerful force.

It is worth mentioning that as soon as You Fang and others entered Jiajia Village, before they had time to say anything, people from the village poured out like a tide, and they immediately received a warm welcome from the entire Jiajia Village. .

As for the reason, there is no doubt that it is because of the "Divine Machine Hundred Refinements". As a family of weapon refiners, they had long received the news of the birth of the "Divine Machine Hundred Refinements", and even learned about Ma Xianhong's intention through special channels. The shocking information released by the "Magic Machine".

Several people had already expected this, which was one of the reasons why they came to Jiajia Village, because they had received Ma Xianhong's instructions before traveling...

Lao Ma knew very well that the art of weapon refining was vast and profound, and it was not possible for him to use it for comprehensive development. Therefore, he told the traveler that if he encountered a powerful weapon refining force during his travels, he could try to use "divine weapons" to achieve full development. "Ji Bailian" communicates with Yin and expresses the intention of cooperation on his behalf.

Of course, since it is cooperation, there needs to be a "contract" and an "exchange of interests." After all, this "magic machine" can be regarded as a valuable treasure. From the company's perspective, it is absolutely unwilling to see it being used casually. homeless.

The three companies in Chengdu are regarded as the "founding heroes", so the company will tolerate it as a reward. However, if it wants to give again later, unless it is a life-threatening situation like Quanxing before, otherwise it will have to use the company as a bridge to achieve cooperation. condition.

As for the content of this cooperation, it is actually very simple. However, any force or individual who has obtained the "magic machine" through cooperation must serve as the "external team" of the Lao Ma project and be available at any time to assist Lao Ma in carrying out the project. Research.

In order to prevent research secrets from being leaked and to cultivate more core research members, these forces or individuals must also send talented core members or themselves into the company's scientific research system to provide unified supervision. Like Lu Huan, use this to ensure results.

For such conditions, Jiajia Village was naturally happy to accept it. They all knew that this was the general trend and there was nothing to be excused for.

Moreover, they can also predict that with the company's encouragement and support, the weapon refining industry will inevitably usher in prosperous development in the future. Getting on board as early as possible and becoming a "veteran" in advancing the new era will definitely have a hundred benefits and no harm. of!

As a result, the two parties hit it off immediately. You immediately contacted the company's senior management to express Jiajiacun's willingness to cooperate. The company also immediately sent a person in charge from Xi'an to sign a cooperation agreement with Jiajiacun.

As an important intermediary in promoting this cooperation, You Fang and others naturally received the highest courtesy. After happily signing the contract and negotiating, they also started exchanges on weapon refining as they wished...
