The heavens begin with Hongquan

Chapter 310 The Guardian Zhang Yujian
Just like that, Hong Kang wandered around in 【Chishu Pavilion】.

His spirit is strong and his memory is amazing. It only took three days to finish reading the first floor.

The main reason is that there are very few truly valuable classics on the first floor.

Because it contains imperial edicts of successive emperors, melodies of scholars, poems and sentences of literati and poets, religious scriptures, geography of mountains and rivers, local conditions and customs...etc.

It is good to use these things to broaden one's horizons and increase one's knowledge in one's spare time, but Hong Kang did not forget that he came here to find opportunities to improve his martial arts.

But if you want to read books here safely, you can't do nothing.

Zhang Xuanqing has expressed his sincerity, so he can't fail to express it.

Hong Kang found Zhang Xuanqing and said, "Daoist Zhang, let's start!"

Zhang Xuanqing occupies the righteousness, while Hong Kang masters martial arts.

As soon as the two united, it took less than a month to run all over the temple forces belonging to [Tianshi Mansion].

Yulong Palace, Yuandu Temple, Shende Temple, Mingsheng Temple, Xiantian Temple, Yousheng Temple, Taoyuan Temple, Zhaozhen Temple......

Xihua Taoist Temple, Dongshan Taoist Temple, Yunshan Taoist Temple, Yunxi Taoist Temple, Yaofeng Taoist Temple, Huizhen Taoist Temple, Wangxian Taoist Temple, Zixiao Daoist Temple, Qingxi Daoist Temple...

I really don’t know if I don’t count, I’m startled by counting.

Of course, not all the abbots of these temples are members of the Zhang clan, and there are also some other Taoist priests with other surnames, who are all disciples and disciples accepted by the former celestial masters.

Righteousness plus force, after running around, all the people in charge of the temples, at least on the surface, bowed their heads and acknowledged Zhang Xuanqing's leadership of the "Heavenly Master".

He also "willingly" agreed to offer incense regularly in accordance with the old practice.

"Zhang Daochang, it is inconvenient for Hong to participate in the next matter."

Hong Kang said: "But I will stay in [Chishu Pavilion] all the time, if there is anyone I can help, please don't hesitate."

Zhang Xuanqing made a Taoist ceremony: "Fusheng Wuliang Tianzun, thank you Hong Layman, I am grateful to the poor."

During this period of time, Zhang Xuanqing realized how useful martial arts are.

It stands to reason that his position of "Heavenly Master" is bestowed by the Holy Spirit, which is the most orthodox.

But those dissatisfied relatives and disciples didn't take him seriously at all. According to the old practice, [-]% of the incense received by the temples under the [Tianshi Mansion] had to be handed over to the main palace.

But I haven't seen a single point in these years!

Now, with the help of Hong Kang, those in charge of the temples dare not disagree. As for how to take back the incense they should have?How much is the incense quota?

That's up to you.

…………

[Chishu Pavilion], the second floor.

Hong Kang is holding a copy of "Xianquan Ji", which is the work of Zhang Yuchu, a "master of Taoism".

"Every change of cold and heat is different between day and night. The unstoppable movement of the sky is like the sun and stars, the power is thunderous, and the wind, rain, frost and dew are moist. The unstoppable movement of the earth is like mountains, rivers and seas, and mountains and rivers. And vegetation, birds and beasts."

"Everything is confined in the ultimate emptiness, and its subtlety and mystery are unfathomable. The so-called Tao and reason..."

In the "Shen Zhang Preface", it is said: "All things are born from one qi, and the qi is divided and judged by Taiji. endless."

Hong Kang muttered something, pondering in his mind.

This is a system in which Dao is the main body, emptiness is the body, qi is the quality, and yin and yang and the five elements are used.

It seems to have the idea of ​​​​"innate oneness".

But when Hong Kang read the entire "Xianquan Collection", he did not find any specific practice methods.

However, in this "Xianquan Collection", Zhang Yuchu put forward his own ideas on the method of practice.

Internal practice is the foundation, dual cultivation of life and soul! !
Zhang Yuchu said: "The study of Xingming is the foundation of Taoism."

"In modern times, Zen is regarded as the sect of nature, Taoism as the sect of fate, Quanzhen is the cultivation of both sex and life, and the one is based on science and education. Who knows that the foundation of learning Tao is not the two of life and life? Although science and education are set up, it is also the study of life That's all."

Hong Kang said to himself: "It seems that Zhengyi and Quanzhen have the same goal in the end."

then.

Hong Kang picked up the "Tai Chi Interpretation" again, which said: "The nature is based on fate, the reason is in the nature, and the heart is called Tao. The body of Tao is called extreme..."

Hong Kang concluded: "This is the belief that there is a Taiji in heaven and earth, the heart is also Taiji, and all things have the nature of being."

Although there is no way to practice it yet, Hong Kang still looks at it with gusto.

He has read many classics before, but there are some Taoists' own annotations in them, which can let Hong Kang see different ways of understanding.

It's just that Hong Kang didn't regard it as a standard. He has reached his level of martial arts and has his own unique understanding of many things. Moreover, some of these annotations are inconsistent with the preface...

"Chong Dao" said: "Knowledge leads to emptiness, clarity, clarity, clarity, clarity, clarity, clarity, spirit, and spirit is not fast, but fast, and impracticable. There is no response, nothing is impossible..."

This means that in cultivating the Tao, one first cultivates the mind.

However, the cultivation method of the way of life should not only pay attention to the cultivation of mind, but also pay attention to the cultivation of life skills. The two are complementary to each other.

It is said in "Wen Xuan": "The good-spoken immortals stop saying that they ignore seeing and hearing, and embrace the spirit to be quiet. They forget their form to nourish their energy, forget their energy to nourish their spirit, and forget their spirit to nourish their emptiness."

It is said in "The Preface to Zhenzhen Collection" that one must practice "Xing Tian Dao Law" and "Heart and Earth Thunder". , can "quietness is golden elixir, movement is thunder".

So many kinds, and so on......

There are assumptions, ideas, and arguments...but there are very few specific practices.

Even if there is an existence not inferior to "Zixia Divine Art", it will not have much effect on Hong Kang at this time.

Hong Kang didn't believe it anymore, and asked suspiciously: "Could it be that [Tianshi Mansion] has been passed down for thousands of years, and there are only such things?!"

Could it be that Zhang Xuanqing hid the really profound practice method?
Hong Kang flashed the idea.

However, even if you want to hide it, it is impossible to just leave some of little use for me! ?
"Thousand-year [Tianshi Mansion], of course there are more than these treasures!!"

"It's just a really expensive thing, it's not in [Tianshi Mansion] for a long time~~!"

A healthy voice came.

The tone is leisurely.

He is the keeper of [Chishu Pavilion], Zhang Xuanqing's uncle——Zhang Yujian.

He is very old, with a slim figure, but his skill is not bad. Among the people Hong Kang knew, Ren Woxing's true energy was more powerful than him.

But this person is only intensively practicing the Taoist profound arts to preserve health and longevity, and he is not good at fighting and killing.

He has white hair and a childlike face, with calm eyes, and there seem to be countless stories hidden in his eyes.

Hong Kang raised his eyes and asked, "Listening to Daoist Zhang, what else happened here?!"

Zhang Yujian walked slowly to the window and looked at the sky: "That happened at the beginning of the founding of this dynasty..."
