Taoist chanting

Walking into the Jingyi Hall shaded by ancient trees, Zhang Wenfeng waved his hand to the disciples who were going to disturb Shi Nanguan after saluting, signaling them to be busy with the documents at hand and not to accompany him.

In the spacious main hall of Jingyi Hall, half-open rooms are separated by screens. Everyone is in charge of transcribing and proofreading a pile of classic books. Walk and watch along the aisle, nodding to the disciples who noticed his arrival and stood up.

Walking to the door of the innermost room, I saw Zhuang Yu holding a book and reading it raptly. Shi Nanguan was lying on the desk full of books, and he didn't know what to say. Neither of them noticed his arrival. Zhang Wenfeng smiled gently. Knocked on the open door.

"Master, why are you here? This place is a mess. Pumpkin is very lazy and often doesn't take care of the study."

Zhuang Yu hurriedly put down the book and stood up to salute, casually complaining about his classmates and friends.

Shi Nanguan greeted with a smile, stretched out his hand to guide the host to the coffee table seat beside him, and said: "Sir, please say hello in advance, I will keep the study clean, and even sweep out some idlers. "

Zhang Wenfeng ignored the bickering among their seniors, sat down, and asked, "How are the classics and side scriptures compiled and summed up? Do you need me to greet other sects?"

Shi Nanguan instructed Zhuang Yu to boil water and make tea. He sat upright and said, "For the time being, don't bother the temple master to come out and say hello. In the past 30 years, I have brought people here and there, and most of the Taoist sects in the five continents have come to visit. , Relying on the name of our Fairy Spirit Temple, we have gained a lot, and it has led to a wave of copying and reorganizing the ancient books. In these years, we have the leisure to go back to the sect to sit down, correct and copy the classics, and found many problems."

"Oh, what's the problem?"

Zhang Wenfeng asked with a smile.

"It's been a long time, and many scriptures have been tampered with by later generations. Even the classics handed down by the Taoist ancestors have many versions, often with a single word difference, and the meaning is very different, so the efficiency of sorting is not high, and there are many suspense."

Seizing the rare opportunity, Shi Nanguan poured bitter water on the Guanzhu.

Zhang Wenfeng knocked on the tea table and said: "I suggest you go to the major sects of Confucianism, Buddhism, and witches. They may have Taoist classics from long ago, which are pressed at the bottom of the box. They are for the reference of the predecessors. Anyone who deletes and tampers with other scriptures can maintain the original meaning of the scriptures."

Shi Nanguan immediately felt reasonable when he heard it, and stroked his forehead and said: "Why didn't I think of it? This method is a different way, maybe we can find the version from the ancient times." Forget about this stubble.

"Don't worry, just listen to me."

Zhang Wenfeng pressed his hand down, and said with a smile: "You also went to Huanye County a few days ago, and I will show you another way. The Yanyuan Secret Realm has been closed for more than five thousand years for some reason. , the aura in the secret realm has always been slightly inferior. I heard from the shelter god of the secret realm that since 5000, there have been five ebbs and flows of aura, and no one has broken through to the sixth level, not even many monks at the fifth level.

"There are quite a few sects that have been passed down for a long time. The monks of the younger generation are not strong enough. They only have the third-level and fourth-level cultivation bases. They cannot open the treasures left by the predecessors. There must be ancient books that have not been turned over for thousands of years. Go to Chen Qingqiao. He knows which people carry the inheritance of the Taoist sect, and there may be surprises after opening it."

Shi Nanguan got up and said with a smile: "I am familiar with Guanzhu Chen, so I will go to him right now. Guanzhu, excuse me."

After saluting, he hurried out, called a few monks, and flew away.

Zhuang Yu poured a cup of boiled tea for the master. The two drank tea and chatted. They didn't even see the master's face for a long time.

"Master, this disciple is stupid. After returning to the sect to practice hard for decades, he finally broke through a small level with his stupid skills. In recent years, he feels that he has fallen into a bottleneck, and his progress in cultivation is extremely slow. Please give me some guidance."

Zhuang Yu asked for advice.

Zhang Wenfeng finished his cup of tea, put down the tea cup, watched his apprentice refill the tea, and said, "You are actually very talented. It doesn't take you too much time to learn skills such as warlocks and formations by yourself, and you have made great achievements, but you There is a problem, 'the mind is restless, and there are many thoughts', you can't focus on one discipline like Qingru, and compared to Xuan'an, you are lacking in aptitude."

The words were so straightforward that Zhuang Yu would not dare to sit down, but stood up and listened attentively.

Zhang Wenfeng smiled and motioned his disciples to sit down, and said: "I will teach you a mantra, there are two formulas, how much you can comprehend depends on your good fortune, you must not force it, even if you can only comprehend one of the formulas, it can help you in your practice. Calm down, and you will take care of it."

Slowly pinching the "Lin" mantra in his hand, the gestures were complicated and mysterious. When Zhuang Yu was fascinated by it, the formula was completed, and Zhang Wenfeng suddenly shouted: "Lin!"

He used his own perception to teach Zhuang Yu by precept and example, and then instilled him with a blow to the head.

Zhuang Yu trembled all over, and slowly closed his eyes, immersed in the artistic conception of "no movement, no confusion" created by his master, completely emptied his mind, and did not know where he was, but he fell into samadhi.

After drinking the tea, Zhang Wenfeng got up and went out. He closed the door of the room by the way, and explained to the disciple next door that no one should disturb Zhuang Yu's cultivation. Zhuang Yu is very smart and has good comprehension. than he expected.

He didn't expect Zhuang Yu to be able to learn the mysteries of the word "Lin". Without ancient scriptures, it would be good to be able to comprehend [-]% from his insights, and it would be of great benefit to future practice.

Go down the hill and walk west along the creek.

You Lao said at the beginning that he would go to the sea area in half a month, and tomorrow will be half a month, did the old man forget the time?
Zhang Wenfeng raised his head and looked to the southwest, two figures gradually became clear and soon fell in front of the temple master.

Xiao Ni'er grinned and called "Master Guanzhu", and said, "I went to play with silly Nier, call me tomorrow", and ran away without a trace.

Zhang Wenfeng teased and beat the old man, saying: "Whether it's going to the Liuzhi River or the Bolan Lake in the Yaozu's territory, it's a few thousand miles away. You Lao, you ran a little far."

You Mengchang laughed and said: "I forgot to tell you, after the old man has advanced to the fifth level, it is not easy to be able to go five thousand miles away, no longer limited to a thousand miles away." , muttered: "It's strange, why is there an incomprehensible mysterious aura on you? I haven't seen you for a few days, so why not have an adventure?"

"Then please do the math, what chance and adventure did I get this time?"

Zhang Wenfeng deliberately tested the old man better.

Protector Tu was in the sect, so he didn't notice any abnormalities in him. As expected of an old senior, You Lao could tell the difference at a glance.

You Mengchang calculated with both hands for a while, then shook his head and said: "There are so many fogs about the things that involve you, you can't figure it out, every time you can only make 'side-by-side' calculations, and calculate from people or things related to you as the source."

Zhang Wenfeng didn't play tricks anymore, and asked with a smile, "Double canopy, what's good for monks?" The last time I wanted to ask Bai Wuchang from the side, he slipped faster than a rabbit, and his tongue was tight.

"...Uh, my God, it's a double canopy, you've found a treasure!"

It is rare for You Mengchang to be so excited, and hurriedly urged: "Hurry up, let me open my eyes by showing it, the extremely rare double canopy in the legend, haha, this old man's luck is against the sky, and I am honored to be with you as a companion."

He understood that there are people in the court who are good at being officials, and the underworld counts the great contribution of saving thousands of dead souls in the secret realm to the temple master, so that the temple master's merit can be doubled.

They may not have many merits and benefits, anyway, the thing is invisible and invisible, and it cannot be noticed to a certain extent.
