God and mystery

Chapter 2 Lying in the Forbidden City

Ji Xiang's spirit has recovered, but his eyes can't see, his mouth can't speak, and his ears can't hear.

A large amount of memories in this thin body poured into Ji Xiang's mind like a tide.

It is now the 25th year of Wanli.

Today is June [-].

It was the Ming Dynasty, but in this Ming Dynasty, there were ghosts and ghosts.

The Three Mountains have the Dharma, the folk have Dharma teaching, the Ming court has the prestige of the country, the elves hide the mountains, and the ghosts gather and howl.

At this time, the coordinates of this body were in the Forbidden City, and the specific location was the Longde Hall, which was built during the Jiajing period.

The former emperor Longqing changed this hall to Longde Hall, removed the statues of Zhenwu and Ruizong originally enshrined here, and changed them to the gods of the Three Qing Dynasty.

Up to now, Emperor Wanli, the incense in the treasure hall is decreasing day by day.

Ji Xiang obtained information in his memory. If no one moved this body now, then there should be the statue of Sanqing in front of him, and he was lying in front of Sanqing Daozu, and there was still the fragrance of the three burning sticks in the incense burner.

Ji Xiang is now a Taoist priest in Wudang Mountain, but his body is not in Wudang, but in the Forbidden City.Moreover, this body was scorched and burned to death, and all the clothes on the body were naturally burnt, leaving only some jade ornaments.

Except for this scorched corpse, there was no burn marks on any items in the hall.

The same name and surname, this is the normal situation of crossing.

When Ji Xiang crossed over, he was carrying the blank divine card he got from Dafu Litu, and now this divine card was in his interior scene.

The inner scene refers to the image within the body that is viewed from the inside during practice.

The Preface of Liang Qiuzi's note in "The Classic of Internal Views of the Yellow Court": The inner is the heart; the scenery is the image.

Simply understood as the spiritual world, everyone has a separate spiritual world.

"Didn't I just rub some incense from you, as for revenge on me?"

Ji Xiang was very uncomfortable at this time. Does this count as "being demoted to the world"?

Other information, this little Taoist did a good job in Wudang Mountain on weekdays. Not long ago, he was assigned the job of sweeping the main hall of the palace, replacing the previous priest in Longde Hall.

The master of the little Taoist priest is an amazing person, but he was very lazy on Wudang Mountain. This time, the little Taoist priest was sent to work in the palace, which was actually an exception.

Because Wudang Mountain is different from other mountains, in the "Three Sects, Nine Daoes and 26 Schools", Wudang Mountain is generally not at any level, and you can play your own.There are Zhengyi, Quanzhen, Wudang Wulong, Wudang Xuanwu, Wudang Qingwei, Wudang Sanfeng.
In addition to those who cultivate immortals, there are those who practice martial arts and those who live in seclusion.

However, although there are many portals, they have a characteristic, that is, no matter what portal you are, they all worship Zhenwu the Great as the supreme god.

This time, when I came to the palace to change the guard, many portals wanted to participate. Because Emperor Wanli did not interact with Wudang all year round, he re-raised the status of the Taoist gate of Longhu Mountain, and at the same time raised a hand of Buddhism, so that Wudang Mountain was very eager to Show a few hands in front of the emperor and regain trust, so every portal wants to win this face-to-face errand, and the chaos is raging on the mountain.

There are several patriarchs on the mountain. Some of these patriarchs lived here in seclusion at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, and many of them did not belong to various portals, but were simply scattered people. Of course, for some reason, there were no practitioners before the Yuan Dynasty in the mountains.

The portals asked the patriarchs to choose from among them, and the patriarchs were also very embarrassed.

Then, the little Taoist's master appeared and waved his hand, saying that everyone should stop fighting and let his apprentice go.

According to this little Taoist master, the rotten-headed master said that a group of old Taoists went to fool others every day and couldn't fool them. If they went there, they would have a hard time, so don't go there at all, and just send a child to fool them for two years.

The patriarchs can no longer bear the intrigue and strife of these juniors. In their view, cultivation and longevity are the most important things. To snatch the head for the duty of sweeping the compound of a palace is simply a shame.

When Wudang Mountain was used as a Taoist temple for the royal family, the incense was very prosperous at that time. Emperor Jiajing once went to Wudang Mountain many times to build construction, but after decades, the current Wanli Emperor only gave Wudang Mountain a book bound with a Vatican folder. It is noted that the others did not have any interaction with Wudang Mountain, but left a Taoist priest from Wudang Mountain in the Forbidden City. As a mascot, he was only responsible for cleaning the Longde Hall on weekdays.

Anyone who goes will go, and since they are fighting so hard, then don't go!
So a patriarch appointed this little Taoist priest, and he said don't talk about it any more. Anyway, there are no hard and fast rules above. Then you go. Going to the palace to sweep the land for two years is considered to gain work experience.

In this way, the youngest Taoist priest in the palace sweeping the compound appeared.

After all, the so-called Emperor Zhenwu is actually Zhu Di, Emperor Yongle. Even the statues are shaped according to Emperor Yongle himself. The statue of Zhenwu can be removed, but the special person in Wudang is responsible for the sacrifice and cannot be abolished.

And no one will come here on weekdays, even palace maids and eunuchs don't come often, because the people of Taoism have the practice rules of fasting and eating qi. In this world with strange power and chaos, Taoist priests really have this ability. .

However, the leisure time did not last long.

At that time, the little Taoist priest was chanting and praying for blessings as usual. After the evening class was over, suddenly three fire lights floated from the incense burner of Sanqing, and penetrated directly into the little Taoist priest's body. Then the little Taoist priest became hot all over his body, and his internal organs were in a short period of time. All burned in a few moments.

At that time, the little Taoist tried to control the spontaneous combustion with his own fire-stopping technique, but the fires were very strange, not normal flames, but curse killing techniques.

In the mountain gate, the little Taoist did his homework very well, but his mana was not strong, so he was burned to death soon. Relying on the scriptures, it is immortal, but unfortunately, his soul disappeared after reading the scriptures because he was too weak.

The life and death of a person is just the gathering and dispersing of qi.

Looking back at this memory, Ji Xiang thought a little, and it seems that the Forbidden City is not very peaceful.

"Not long after this little Taoist came to the Forbidden City, he didn't have too much communication with anyone. The Forbidden City is a forbidden place for all kinds of laws. Except for the mage who was approved to keep by the emperor, there are no other practitioners, only Zhang Zhenren from Longhu Mountain is separated by two Yue will come in for a walk."

"There is no grievances from fellow comrades, no official politics involved, and no grudges with any factory Fan Jinyiwei. What are the people who cursed?"

Ji Xiang pondered for a while, and anyway, now the first thing to do is to "come back to life".

With this scorched body, there is no way for him to move in the world.

So, Ji Xiang just thought a little bit, and in his soul, the blank divine card flashed majestic and glorious.

Countless incense yellow qi rushes out from this blank god card in an instant, and this blank god card is also full of white jade-like light in the interior.

These incense sticks reached every inch of the scorched body, and then connected, so that the scorched body began to move slowly under the action of yellow energy.

These changes, this feeling, and the current scene, even if the eyes cannot see, the nose and mouth cannot smell, and the ears cannot hear, but I can still understand that my current self is no longer a pure person.

At the same time, there is a vague coercion in all directions, which makes people uncomfortable.

"Don't be a man, don't be a man, let me get up first and then talk about it."

Just when Ji Xiang's mind was turning, some words flashed on the blank god card, as if responding to Ji Xiang's question:

[Wanmin Incense: The sacrifice made by thousands of people, the gods who eat the gas will not die. 】

These are "incense."

It is the incense of all peoples that all living beings have prayed and gathered since ancient times!
Afterwards, after confirming that the incense was filled with the flesh, Ji Xiang looked through the memories of the little Taoist priest and found the spell that brought the dead back to life. After knowing the words, he was very stunned.

This is exactly the sound of chanting that I heard when I was brought down by Yuanshi Tianzun's divine card.

So, with the incense of the people as a guide, I began to meditate on this scripture in my heart.

"In the past, in the beginning of the blue sky, the blue sky sang, and the earth floated."

That is the "Salvation".
