Chapter 184 The Divine Skills Are Flawed

It's late at night to bid farewell to the seven couples,

But Qingyun's talk was not finished, so Tao Hongjing had to explain some experience of breathing and practicing Qi.

At present, Tao Hongjing's cultivation has reached the state where deep sleep is replaced by meditation.

Fetal breath meditation is the most effective way to rest.

When Qingyun heard about it, he also became interested in it.

Tao Hongjing didn't refuse, but just guided patiently,

"Entering the womb's breath and returning to the Nascent Soul actually doesn't require much profound cultivation.

It's just an epiphany process.

Some people can master this state when they try meditation for the first time.
Some people spend their entire lives unable to enter this realm.

When everyone is born, the yin and yang qi given by their parents are the purest.

(two chromosomes)

However, with age, some parts of the body become turbid, and some problems will appear.

Qi turbidity leads to cancer, and cancer leads to illness.

Frequently enter the state of fetal breath, let the two Qi revisit the Qingming, itself is the best way to prevent cancer and cure diseases.

The understanding of fetal breath has nothing to do with martial arts attainments.

For example, Wang Zixia from your school is a god-man,
Born to be able to see the Nascent Soul by itself, it is a good seed who has practiced inner alchemy. "

While listening to Mr. Huayang's explanation, Qingyun slowly closed his eyes, feeling the changes in the airflow between breaths.

The moonlight is like flowing water, wrapping Qingyun in this square of heaven and earth in the quiet night.

The whole body is slightly cold, and I don't know whether it is a breeze or a trickle,
Qingyun seemed to feel that he had turned into a big fish, wandering in the dark seabed.

It is the meditative world of the pure-hearted,

Without the eccentricity in the cage, the wine, sex and wealth in the world of mortals,

There is only boundless emptiness, like the beginning of human beings.

Qingyun felt an unprecedented relaxation in his body,
In this empty world, he can move without restraint,
Like a fish, like a butterfly,
Walk freely, move freely,
Every pore can breathe freely...

This is a world of absolute freedom, but only himself.

Looking far and wide, there is nothingness,
Call out loudly without hearing an echo.

There is no time reference here, the horizon of the previous moment is exactly the same as that of the next moment,

Moment, eternity, meaningless,
I don't know how long it's been like this, but a sense of fear gradually surfaced in Qingyun's heart.

He has entered the underworld, but how can he get out?
The state of meditation is like a dream state,

No matter how he flipped up and down and shouted heart-piercingly, he couldn't break free from this world.

Tao Hongjing sat next to Qingyun to protect him. Seeing that Qingyun's forehead was slightly sweaty, he thought that like most people who tried to meditate for the first time, he had too much inner demons and could not enter meditation.

So he put his right hand against the jade pillow behind Qingyun's head, trying to guide Qingyun's breath and help him calm down.

People are often unable to really enter meditation because of various desire obstacles and distracting thoughts.

Even if you enter, you can't immerse in that dead silence for too long, and you will be pulled out by the demon again.

Fighting against inner demons is the biggest trouble in meditation.

Some people rely on their thoughts to stick to the underworld because they have been fighting against demons for a long time.

In the end, he could not distinguish between dreaming and waking up, confused the boundary between reality and ideas, and became insane.

Therefore, things like entering the womb's breath and peeking at the Nascent Soul are very dependent on talent.

If you don't have talent, you have to work hard, and the danger is the same as exploring the cave of the Lilong to seek the orb.

Even Tao Hongjing has never encountered such a situation where Qingyun can't extricate himself once he enters Hongming.

Qingyun lived a life of seclusion with his master since he was a child, and he didn't have any lofty pursuits.

Later, when he suddenly learned that his father had been stabbed to death, he went north to seek evidence.

After he learned about the background of that political strife, he was very disgusted with these dirty things in high places,
Whether Tangun or Hualu, none of them were as important as the friends around him in his heart.

Qingyun is deeply trapped in a dream at this moment, unable to find a way out,

He was almost driven crazy by this oppressive and lonely Taichu state.

So he closed his eyes and stood up straight, opened his limbs and raised his head to shout,

Like a territory-challenged orangutan,

That is expressing the final anger, expressing the determination to fight!
Just when he gritted his teeth and opened his eyes again,
He suddenly felt two gleams of light floating in the distance of the world.

Those lights are extremely weak, and in this boundless darkness, you need to squint your eyes to identify them carefully.

One is green, and the other seems to be purple.

The demons finally came.

"Well, Hu, Senior Sister? The room is simple and cramped. Since there are guests here, why don't you go to the front yard to talk?"

"No need! Since you refuse to tell where he is, what else is there to talk about?"

Two voices as thin as gnats pierced into Qingyun's ear holes,

However, Qingyun was shocked as if struck by lightning.

Senior Sister Hu, Junior Sister Yin?
When they first met...

"You are a secret spy of Baoyi! Kill me!"

Although I'm not sure where the sound came from,
But as soon as the words "Baoyi Secret Spy" caught his ears, Qingyun knew that Senior Sister Hu was in trouble.

He immediately rushed towards the place where the green light appeared,
That ray of light is far away, even if he can fly freely at this time, he doesn't know if he can give a helping hand in time.

"Tie this girl up and threaten Su Qijian!"

Zhang Yuanyou's maniacal laughter echoed in the space.

Junior Sister Yin, there are difficulties too!
This!
Qingyun was suddenly restless and became restless.

It's not that he didn't do multiple choice questions,
Did you come north with Senior Sister Hu?

Is it possible to go to Beijing together with Yin Se,
Do you want to attack Yuan Hong at Baode Temple?

Whether to serve as Tangun, and strive to rehabilitate the sect...

He has made many choices, many big choices, big choices that can affect the fate of many people.

But he has never made the choice before him that has no correct answer...

Once Qingyun lost his mind, the world would start to shake.

Shouts, kills, winds, howls,
Various noises sounded one after another, rubbing against Qingyun's eardrums.

No cracks can be seen in the pitch-black sky,

But Qingyun could feel the obvious distortion in the field of vision,

The world is collapsing!

Being forcibly disintegrated by the demons is not a successful start,
The mild one is internal injury, and the severe one is possessed by demons.

Qingyun didn't understand these things, let alone control the anxiety in his heart.

Just when he was at a loss, he suddenly felt the jade pillow warm up, as if some force was pressing on the back of his neck, and his heart rate instantly calmed down a little.

He turned his head abruptly, stretched out his hand, and touched a wall!
no, not the walls,

The round ones are the pillars,

It is a pillar, a pillar wrapped in warm current.

The moment his hand touched the pillar, a giant pillar was instantly lit up.

The deep sea of ​​eternal night, the sacred pillar of Dinghai, is so high that its top cannot be seen.

The bottom of the pillar is firmly embraced by a stone dragon,

Along the rising direction of the dragon's mouth, there seem to be many crooked lines extending out, covering the thick pillars.

Some lines are already lit up, while others are still blurred,

That is, dragon marks?
The huge and eye-catching dragon pattern seems to have nine lines, one circle after another, circling upwards,

The seal characters on the dragon head are the size of a millstone, and can be vaguely distinguished.

Liang, Chen, Wei, East, West, Qi, Zhou, Sui, Tang...

This is the country name?
But apart from Wei Guo, other country titles do not exist in this world?

Qingyun didn't understand the situation at all, but saw that there were many smaller dragon patterns hidden in the gaps of those large dragon patterns,
Although there are handwriting on Xiaolong's forehead, not all of them can be seen clearly.

Japanese, Silla, Baekje, Gaya, Wanchun, Han, Jianfusha,

And... What Sigoths, Armenians, Shambhala...

These should be the names of some foreign countries, right?
He had probably heard of some of the previous ones.
The ones in the back are where they are!

"""""Knock on the blackboard time"""""

In the previous section, we briefly talked about the ancient history of India, so today we will mainly talk about the Sixteen Kingdoms.

The reference to the sixteen kingdoms is actually recorded in the "Chang'a Han Sutra".It is about the history of disputes among Indian nations during the time of the Buddha.At that time, Tianzhu was dominated by sixteen countries. Although the details of the sixteen countries were still controversial, they had already formed a customary name.We usually refer to this era as the origin of Indian faith for two reasons:
One is that during the time when the Buddha came to the world in the sixteen kingdoms, there are a large number of scriptures in the form of quotations that can prove the situation of India's princes at that time.

Second, the archaeological evidence of this era is relatively complete.

Therefore, although Indian history is based on scriptures, epics, and oral stories, it is difficult to determine the age, but through archaeological dating, it is still possible to basically restore the style of this period.

Due to space constraints, we cannot go into detail about these sixteen kingdoms, but only select some important and interesting knowledge points to share with you.

The scriptures of the Sixteen Kingdoms were transcribed from the east to the west. Why the east is respected, I don’t know.A country in the far east is near present-day Bangladesh, and it had business connections with ancient China.This country, which is the first country recorded in the Sixteen Heroic Kingdoms, is named Aga (Aga, translated in ancient times).Followed by Magadha, who is the most powerful, is also the later young dragon, Guan Zizai, Peacock, the predecessor of the three dynasties (the Keli Dynasty is actually Magadha).Along with Magadha, there are also the three kingdoms of Avanti (Avanti, translated in ancient times), Vatsa (in ancient translation), and Koala (Koala, translated in ancient times).

Yes, there is indeed a big country called Avanti. This country is geographically adjacent to the Percy country that appears in this work, and it is a landlocked country.Why is this country mentioned in particular?Not just because his name is Avanti, but because our so-called Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss refers to this country.The dynasty established by its king, Pradyota, is also called "prthivim bhoksyanti", which is the pure land of bliss.Avanti is one of the first big countries to convert to Buddhism. In Chinese Buddhism, the concept of Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss is somewhat confused with Shambhala/Shangri-La (the Land of Ultimate Bliss).After the twelfth century AD, Buddhism had disappeared in India, and this piece of paradise occupied by Brahman heretics was naturally not mentioned by anyone.

There is a country to the east of the Avanti country, which is the place that the singer Adu yearns for—Chedi country (Chedi, also called Chedi in ancient times, and the Latin phonetic transliteration is also Chedi, which cannot be escaped no matter how you translate it. ).This country is also mentioned in the epic Mahabharata as an ally of Kuru (Kuru).Yes, the Julu Kingdom is also a real kingdom, and they have a long history. As early as the [-]th century BC when the Aryans invaded the South Asian subcontinent, the tribe already existed, and it was one of the ten kings who rose up to resist. He was defeated in the Ten Kings War and gave up a large area of ​​land to the Aryans (the "Rig Veda", although the issue of dating in this dictated book has not been completely resolved, but some nouns with continuity can still correspond ).

So where did the pandaren who once defeated the Julu tribe go?During the period of resisting the invasion of the Aryans, this tribe also participated in the war and joined the camp of the ten native kings. It was called the Pakthas at that time.After the fall of this tribe, they disappeared. Some scholars believe that they have merged with the Aryans and formed the main ethnic group in Afghanistan/Pakistan today (PST tribe, avoid time-related issues, stop here).In fact, judging from the geographical location, the active range of the Panda people mentioned in the "Rig Veda" is the location of the extreme western Jianfusha Kingdom (kambojas, also known as Jianfusha in ancient translation) during the period of the Sixteen Heroic Kingdoms.Geographically, it is connected to the Western Regions of China, and the east faces a geographical corridor that is easier to pass than Fengleikou—the Wakhan Corridor.When Xuanzang traveled westward, he chose to leave the mountain in this direction.Westerners assumed that the Jianfusha people were modern Aryans because the Kashmir area was occupied by the Aryans in the [-]th century BC.But even they themselves have no basis for this point, and the words they use are speculative words like "probably".

The author believes that the Jianfusha people must be of Mongolian race, which can be seen from their several migrations.The first migration of the Jianfusha people was in the [-]th century BC, when the Aryans invaded. At that time, some Panda tribes moved eastward, and the battle between the giant panda and the giant deer recorded in the "Mahabharata" took place.From now on, the Kuru country is actually a pandaren.The second eastward migration of Jianfusha occurred during Alexander's Eastern Expedition.Jianfusha was the first to bear the brunt and was almost wiped out. It was not until the Maurya Dynasty that the Jianfusha tribe reappeared in this area to submit to the Maurya Dynasty and contribute cavalry to the Maurya Dynasty (Afghan horses are produced here, the so-called Tianma in the Han Dynasty) .However, most of the Jianfusha people migrated across the South Asian subcontinent and established a large empire (kambojas-pala) in Bengal and Assam, India today. A dynasty named Kambuja (eighth century AD) was established in today's Cambodia region.The great migration of Jianfusha has been recognized by Indian history.Then judging from the conditions of the residents of these two destinations, it is impossible for the people of Jianfusha Kingdom to be Aryans today.

The Cambodian stalk, we will pick it up in the next section.At the end of this section, I would like to point out that no matter how the Jianfusha Kingdom migrated, they eventually settled in a location where they could directly trade with China.Migrating from the main point of the Wakhan Corridor to the south of Wuchidao shows that this tribe has never had and is unwilling to sever its connection with Middle-earth.They originally lived in the first station of the Aunt Xindu, and they were the first batch of vanguards from the ancient Kunlun people to go westward. So far, this work will not expand, and you can understand the sequels of the series.

*The update speed of this chapter is relatively slow, and it has been more than 48 hours since the last chapter was updated.Mainly for the content of the knowledge point.Seeing now, everyone should be familiar with it. The author combines the history of some neighboring countries with the history of China, breaks up and rearranges, so many formulations are proposed for the first time.But the author must ensure the seriousness of what he says, and cannot copy what others say. Therefore, all the arguments and arguments of the author need to be checked in the original ancient books one by one, so that they can happen to point out some pseudo-canonical errors in other people's papers.The work of inquiring about original books is not limited to domestic classics. If foreign history is involved, it is necessary to search for original books in foreign languages.Japan, South Korea, and Vietnam are not bad. Their national history is written in Chinese, and it is not difficult to read.But the Indian Vedas and epics have only hard-to-eat English translations.Checking one by one has affected some progress, and I hope readers will be tolerant.
