Chapter 210 The right path is taken directly, and inner demons are transformed
My concubine Xue Yuzhen wrote a letter, saying that she would stay in Xiaoshanghe for a while. Mrs. Baoxiang and the two ladies both liked me quite a lot. This For a period of time, I handled my own affairs and accompanied me on outings. Everything was done to the satisfaction of my wife and the two young ladies.
In the letter, Xue Yuzhen wrote this. Between the words, he was a little carried away.
After reading the letter, Lu Cheng put down the letter and was not too worried about Xue Yuzhen. Mrs. Baoxiang was also one of the most eminent people in the world. If it was not safe to be around her, it only meant that that person was doomed.
Xue Yuzhen did not come back. He was recuperating due to internal injuries and was unable to practice. So Lu Cheng focused his attention on teaching his disciples. Speaking of which, he rarely cared about and frequently gave guidance to two disciples in these years. Time:
The eldest disciple, Situ Hua, was originally a casual cultivator in the south. Later, in order to cultivate exquisite Taoism, he became a disciple of the forest family in Ranmu Mountain. He met Lu Cheng by chance and by chance, became a registered disciple of his family.
The second disciple, Miao Chuyun, was originally a disciple of the Miaohua Sect in the Nine Palaces Demon Realm. He was introduced to the Mingji Sword Sect by Lu Cheng. Later, the Mingji Sword Sect was destroyed. Miao Chuyun wanted to die with the Sword Sect, and Once he was met by Lu Cheng and taken under his tutelage.
Therefore, she is both Lu Cheng's registered disciple and the head of the Mingji Sword Sect. The remnants of this sect take shelter under Lu Cheng's gate, but Lu Cheng usually doesn't care about them.
It is impossible to test when the outer disciples, inner disciples, registered disciples, true disciples, and sect monks in the Tongxuan world began to be divided into levels like this. It may have been the case in the previous era.
In the wooden house in the mountain, the three masters and apprentices sat and talked.
"In terms of practice, what's the difference between Taoism and demons?"
Lu Cheng's Taoist uniform was spread out, and he was sitting on the futon in the wooden house, resting his chin on his hands, with a relaxed attitude. He has a handsome appearance. Sitting casually after taking a bath gives people the feeling of being a true cultivator.
“Tao practice proceeds step by step, using the four parts of induction, speculation, rules, and empirical evidence to move forward step by step. Although it progresses slowly, it is better than solid.
The magic practice moves forward rapidly, taking advantage of the situation and exerting force, in In a short period of time, you can build a masterful Mana, but it often falls into a weak foundation, unable to make progress, and even the danger of going crazy."
Situ Hua sat on the futon and leaned forward, speaking respectfully, saying something that most monks in the world agree with. The difference between Tao and demon.
"Chu Yun, what do you think?"
Lu Cheng continued to ask without comment.
"...Disciple, I don't know."
In fact, how could I not know that the debate between Tao and Demon is a common topic among monks.
As long as Miao Chuyun thought about it, she could give out several answers, or the answer that she was more inclined to agree with in her heart, but she looked at the master at this moment, but said nothing.
However.
“Hahahaha.”
Lu Cheng laughed heartily, and then said to Situ Huayan, who looked a little ugly:
“This is induction and speculation, you said There’s nothing wrong with it, but you didn’t do any of it.”
Maybe Miao Chuyun doesn’t know?
Impossible.
She has also been practicing Taoism for many years, but she sensed that this was not what Lu Cheng wanted to ask, and at the same time she began to think on her own, and the answer she finally came up with was that she didn’t know - she is not afraid that there is no answer, but she is afraid that you will not sense and think about it. .
Of course, from another aspect, Situ Hua abides by the rules, but when it comes to Taoist practice, it does not require too many human etiquette and favors. The Taoist precepts and principles do not refer to this.
After laughing, Lu Chengfu continued: "The right path is straight forward, and the inner demons will be transformed. This is my current feeling as a teacher. I cannot say that it is definitely correct, but it should be more accurate than all of you."< br>
As he spoke, Lu Cheng took out a book from his sleeve and handed it to Miao Chuyun:
"Since you want to rebuild the Mingji Sword Sect, you must be prepared to endure hardships, suffer, and endure loneliness. Thousands of years of hard work will end up being an empty dream.
It is useless to endure hardships, every time you practice swords You must always think about how to practice better, and always find yourself Make up for your weaknesses and turn them into strengths through hard training. The sword technique I wrote to you is not very powerful, but it can open a door for you."
"Thank you, Master."
Seeing this, Miao Chuyun immediately knelt down and thanked Lu Cheng for teaching him the art.
Situ Hua on the side looked at the master's teaching of Taoism with great envy. He had been his disciple for many years and had been taught some sword techniques, but he had not been taught such a fundamental method.
"Don't look at it. You can't follow your junior sister's path. It's your share. The righteous path takes hundreds of years of hard work to turn into a solid foundation and pursues enlightenment in one day. However, the vast majority of people spend their entire lives practicing. If you can't reach that height, a hundred years of cultivation will be in vain.
I will teach you "The Demonic Writings and Ghost Seal Script to Attract Demons." "Baolu" and "Tai Shang Cave Xuan Ling Bao Tian Zun's Wonderful Sutra for Saving Suffering", the former teaches you to practice Taoism, and every step of practice is ingenious. From the beginning, you should give up elixirs to become top-grade, but you can practice cold essence. Although Guizhuan Secret Demon Yuan Dan is a fifth-grade lead-mercury elixir, it is so powerful that it can restrain most elixirs. , so that you don’t have to be bullied by others.
But you have to remember that the key point is the "Shu Sutra" that follows. Tongyou, ghosts, demons and souls will ultimately harm the world. If you don’t want to do it. If you suffer a demonic calamity, you will have to apply ten times as much effort to the "Suffering-Saving Sutra" as before.
In addition, the inner demons are all illusions. In the future, if you encounter a righteous monk who cannot bewitched by you, no matter how weak the opponent's magic power is, you can get away as far as you want. You will not lose your life if you return to my sect."
“Thank you, Master, for your love. Thank you, Master.”
After Situ Hua received "The Record of Demonic Writings, Ghost Seal Scripts, and Demonic Seals", he immediately knelt down and kowtowed and communicated with each other through tears.
On weekdays, most of the people Lu Cheng interacts with are real people from the Golden Core Realm, but in fact, in this world, monks at the Foundation Establishment Realm can establish a family, and monks at the Ningsha Refining Realm can establish a sect and own an unparalleled territory. Small foundation. From this we can see how valuable the Dharma that Situ Hua received, which directly points to the path of alchemy, is.
“You have insufficient faculties in this life, so practice the Treasure Record well and hold it for a hundred years. When your life is over, you can use the secret method in the Treasure Record to reverse the calamity. Maybe you will have a chance to achieve enlightenment in the next life.”
"Thank you, Master. Thank you, Master."
At this moment, Situ Hua could not say anything except kowtow to express his gratitude. After joining the Lin family of Ranmu Mountain for a hundred years, I suffered for hundreds of years and was only taught a few spells. But now I am taught the method of directly obtaining alchemy and even a chance of becoming a Taoist. This is something that I could never get in Ranmu Mountain in my whole life. of.
At this moment, Situ Hua's gratitude to Lu Cheng was beyond words, and the previous thoughts of envy and even hatred for his junior sister had completely disappeared.
"Okay, let's go and practice some sword skills each. Taking advantage of my free time as a teacher today, I will also show you some changes in sword skills."
"Thank you, Master."
Situ Hua and Miao Chuyun stood up and saluted together.
Next, Situ Hua and Miao Chuyun went to the mountains to practice swordsmanship and used various superb sword techniques taught by Lu Cheng. For a moment, the cold light of the sword energy flew across the mountains, and the clouds and mist in the mountains were destroyed.
However, not long after time passed, Lu Cheng subconsciously looked towards the side of the mountain.
At this time, there was a domineering and powerful aura that had already reached there. "Hahaha, it's rare that my junior brother is free today and is out of seclusion to train his disciples."
A very majestic old man walked slowly down the mountain and shrunk into an inch. , seemingly slow but actually sick, in just a few steps, he walked from the foot of the mountain to the wooden house in the mountain.
“Something went wrong in my practice, so I came out to get some fresh air. Senior brother is busy with work, how come you have time to come here today?”
"Oh? Junior brother, you are injured. Is it serious? Senior brother also knows a few good spiritual doctors. I will call them to give you a look." It’s just as good as the day, no need to waste any favors.”
Lu Cheng and senior brother Yu Wenzheng exchanged a few polite words.
At this time, Yu Wenzheng’s only son Yu Wenyi also came to the mountain, holding a box of pills, and was trying to get closer to Miao Chuyun, but Miao Chuyun clearly kept rejecting him, and his expression Difficult.
"Ha, Tianxin Pill, what a great gift. This pill can cleanse Chu Yun's muscles and cut her marrow. It can indeed make her practice magic twice the result with half the effort. Is this a fifth-level pill? Just give the betrothal gift. Enough.”
Hearing Lu Cheng's words, Yu Wenzheng's face showed a bit of embarrassment, but he had been practicing for many years and had become thick-skinned and dark-hearted. He actually took advantage of the situation and said:
"I really like Chu Yun so much." This child has a simple and down-to-earth temperament. Even if there is no Yi'er incident, I will still decide to give this Tianxin Pill to Chu Yun, Lao Jiu, and the selling senior brother How about letting Chu Yun get along with my Yi'er for a while just to save my face?"
"Senior brother, if Yi'er can please my disciple, I, as the master, will prepare something for her. But if I can’t do it, I don’t want to mess with it.”
Lu Cheng doesn’t have the trap in Zhongyu Wenzheng’s words.
With Miao Chuyun's current experience and temperament, if her extremely respected master nodded and assigned him, she would probably obey even if she felt aggrieved.
However, the Yuwen family got a guarantee, and it was Miao Chuyun who helped him for at least half his life.
"Marriage matters have always been dictated by parents and matchmakers. When will it be these children's turn to make the decision themselves? What can they understand?"
"Oh, senior brother, you are going too far. It's biased, and I don't think Yi'er actually has any. I like my Chu Yun so much, it’s probably because you forced me to come here, so even if we get married in the future, he will have many romantic affairs outside. The sad thing is my poor disciple Yuwen.”
Elder brother Yuwen. Zheng proposed to marry his only son, but Lu Cheng pushed him back.
When Yu Wenzheng and Yu Wenyi left, their faces were not good-looking, which made Miao Chuyun a little worried.
"It's okay. My Chu Yunruo is an incompetent child. In fact, Yu Wenyi can also be called a dragon or a phoenix among people, a rare good match. But you have to work hard to be strong. Since you don't want to, you will never be frustrated as a teacher. It depends on how far you can go if you are determined.”
“Thank you, Master, for your kindness.”
Miao Chuyun sighed again after hearing this. Bye, I just feel so grateful.
"Dad, that Lu Cheng is just a monk in the Refining Gang Realm, and their master and disciple are just living in our house. Why are they so arrogant?"
"Shut up! On weekdays, you You can hook up with a married woman, this lover, that concubine, but where is your ability now?
I will give you Tianxin Pill, and you will take it out as soon as we meet. Where are you buying sex? If it were me, the Ninth Junior Brother, I wouldn't even look down on you. ”
On weekdays, Yu Wenyi is not afraid of anything, but he is only afraid of himself, his father.
It’s just that Yu Wenzheng devotes himself to cultivating Taoism and manages the affairs of Zhiguan Mountain, so he has no time to control him. , it doesn’t show much.
Seeing that his father was really angry at this moment, Yu Wenyi didn't dare to say a word.
"If I hear even half of what you just said outside, I, I will confine you. One hundred years, let you feel what it is like to practice asceticism in seclusion! ”
"Yes, father."
Seeing Yu Wenyi's silent look, Yu Wenzheng first took him away on a cloud, and arrived at the mansion a moment later. He let out a long sigh when he fell.
“Yi’er, I have been listening to the Master for almost three hundred years. I dare not tell you everything. I can actually guess most of the Master’s thoughts.
Among the Master's Nine True Traditions, I am the only one who has refined the golden elixir and made it into a high-grade one. Although the Master doesn't say it on weekdays, he actually protects me.
Then why did he take Lu Cheng? Arrange to come to my place?”
"...because the Ninth Master Uncle is a master of Taoism. Master wants his father and the Ninth Master Uncle to reconcile and help each other in the future."
"That's right, you are not stupid after all. In the future, unless that Lu Cheng If you fail to cultivate alchemy, I'm afraid your father and I will come to ask for help one day. At this time, if you accumulate more good karma, or even form a good marriage, it will be a good way out for you in the future.
With a color-eyed ancestry and poor Taoist aptitude, if you want to cultivate alchemy in the future, I'm afraid you will have to focus on your ninth uncle's outer elixir magic weapon. What does it mean to be embarrassed by him now? , Father may not be able to protect you for the rest of his life."
"Father, why do you say such unlucky words!"
When Yu Wenyi heard this, he suddenly panicked.
Yu Wenzheng has cultivated the golden elixir. Normally, his lifespan will be far longer than Yu Wenyi. It is very likely that a white-haired person will send a black-haired person to their house.
Of course, from Yu Wenyi’s perspective, this may be a great blessing.
"These days, I always feel that there is a deeper meaning in Master sending the disciples out to each defend their own side. Maybe the disaster will soon come."
Yu Wenzheng Looking up to the sky, he sighed silently: < br>
"The recruitment of disciples by high-level monks has the function of preventing disasters. If the master really has to go through the fourth and ninth tribulations, his father will definitely bear the brunt. How can the enemies of his old man be willing to do so? Let me go?”
In this round, Master Huang Longzi didn't want to drag down his disciples. The relationship between high-level monks and their disciples was one of mutual prosperity and mutual loss.
"Father, if you really can't stop this disaster, just run away!? My father is already a real Jindan. We put down this inheritance and fled overseas, to the ends of the earth. Yi'er would rather not give up this inheritance. I also want to serve my father and always be by my side.”
Although Yu Wenyi didn’t know the inside story, he could still understand the words “doom is imminent” and suggested after looking around.
Hearing this, Yu Wenzheng sighed softly, turned sideways and stroked Aizi's head, but shook his head.
For Yu Wenyi, this world of heaven and earth is huge and vast, but for Master Jiedan, especially the monks in the Jindan Zhenren realm, this world of heaven and earth is already too small.
