Han Dao world

Chapter 500
Wang Zhi tidied up his clothes again, and reported in loudly.

"Please come in." A clear voice came from the tent.The voice is not loud, calm and unhurried, but has its own majesty.

Wang Zhi's heart moved, and he couldn't help beaming with joy.

This voice is very young, but it is different from Xun Yun and others before him. It is probably the emperor himself.If it is true, it means that the Son of Heaven attaches great importance to the Tao of Heavenly Masters. This time, traveling all the way here may have a perfect result.

The tent door was opened, hot air gushed out, and Wang Zhi's face, which had been stiffened by the cold wind, felt hot.He walked slowly into the tent, the tent door fell behind him, the heat surrounded him, his eyes were bright, several people were sitting around the firepit, holding cups in their hands, looking at him.

"Wang Taoist, please sit down." Liu Xie, who was sitting in the middle, greeted.

Wang Zhi didn't dare to be negligent, and quickly sat down at the seat designated by Liu Xie, and was about to kneel down and salute, when Liu Xie stretched out his hand to support him. "The Taoist priest is an outsider, so he doesn't need to practice the etiquette of the world."

"How dare I." Wang Zhi was overwhelmed by the flattery, and hesitated to bow again.

"Today we only talk about Taoism, not politics." Liu Xie pointed to Jia Xu and Cai Yan with a smile. "So this is Liangzhou Sergeant Jia Jun, not Jia Shizhong. This is Chen Liucai Jun, not Lantai Lingshi. You are familiar with this Xun Jun, so I don't need my introduction. As for me, He is not the Son of Heaven, but a young boy who sincerely asked, and I ask the Taoist priest to give me some advice."

Wang Zhi greeted them one by one, but dared not even say so.

After being seated, Liu Xie personally poured Wang Zhi a cup of tea and exchanged some greetings before getting to the point.

"Tianshi Dao, the word Tianshi, how to say it?"

"Heavenly masters take heaven as their teacher." Wang Zhi put down his teacup, and replied with Jishou: "In the first year of Han'an, Lao Tzu came to the world, taught the method of Zhengyi, ordered his family teachers to practice it, and passed it on to the people. Lao Tzu said: People follow the earth, the earth follows the sky, the sky follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature..."

Cai Yan asked: "Since Taoism follows nature, why do we take heaven as our teacher and not nature as our teacher?"

"Nature is everywhere. It's hard for people to see it, so it's hard to be a teacher. Those who can see it are the people of heaven, earth and man. Taking heaven as a teacher is learning from nature."

"Then why is it illegal?" Cai Yan said again: "The way of heaven is far away, and the way of earth is close. It is not more convenient to use the earth as a teacher."

"Take the law from the top and get it from it. Take the law from the middle and get it from the bottom. If you abandon the way of heaven and follow the way of the earth for the sake of convenience, you will inevitably lose the pearl. Therefore, within the field of vision, it is better to use the sky as a teacher than to use the earth. Be a teacher."

Liu Xie listened for a while, then interrupted the topic.This kind of argument is too illusory, it has no practical significance, and there is no reason for it.If it's just a casual chat, you can do whatever you want, but his purpose is not to pass the time.

"I heard that celestial masters and departmental masters are all promoted?"

"Yes."

"Are they physically ascending, or are their souls ascending?"

Wang Zhi was stunned for a moment, then looked at Liu Xie puzzled.

Liu Xie smiled slightly. "Is their tomb in Bashu a clothes tomb, or a coffin with an incorruptible body?"

Wang Zhi suddenly became nervous.

Liu Xie said that he was just talking about the Tao, but he didn't dare to really regard Liu Xie as a young man who asked questions.

For a long time, they have told believers that Zhang Ling, Zhang Heng and his son had attained enlightenment, and no one had ever asked such detailed questions.And the young man in front of him is not an ordinary person, he is the emperor, lying is the crime of deceiving the emperor.

If it is a tomb of clothing, what if Liu Xie wants to dig a grave for verification?It is not enough to say that the flesh is not rotten.Although a lot of spices were used, more than forty years have passed, and it must be rotten.

"I don't know?" Liu Xie raised his eyebrows, and said again: "I also heard that Mrs. Li was killed by Liu Zhang. Is it true or not?"

A layer of cold sweat broke out on Wang Zhi's forehead, and he said hastily, "That's true. The teacher's wife failed to achieve great success in Taoism, so she was killed by a traitor."

"What path did she cultivate?"

"Shu Na Dao Yin, bigu to keep in good health." Wang Zhi lowered his head guiltily.

Mrs. Lu is of course proficient in vomiting Daoyin and bigu health preservation, but what she is best at is not these, but housework and spells to exorcise ghosts.But these should not be mentioned in front of the emperor, they can only be avoided.

The classics of Tianshi Tao include not only "Laozi Xianger Zhu", but also "Yellow Book". "Yellow Book" is a standard Fangzhongshu, and "Laozi Xianger Zhu" also uses Fangzhongshu to explain Laozi's thoughts, but it is more inclined to theoretical construction.

The book "Laozi" is yin and soft, and there are a lot of female metaphors in it.In the Han Dynasty, there were many sects that combined "Laozi" and Fang Zhongshu, and the Tao of Tianshi was just a relatively influential sect.

But Wang Zhi learned from Xun Yun that the emperor had no interest in Fang Zhongshu.Although he is an emperor, he doesn't have many women around him, and sometimes he doesn't have any contact with women for several months.Even after his life is settled, he is not the kind of person who is very concerned about the affairs of men and women.

Wang Zhi was not sure whether it was good or bad to talk to such an emperor about the art in the house.

If you are not sure about something, you should not try it lightly.When meeting for the first time, let's say something reliable.

Xun Yun said that the emperor does not easily trust others, especially those things that sound mysterious but cannot be verified.

"Tuna Daoyin, bigu health preservation, how many years does it take to practice before it can have obvious effects?"

"One day of practice, one day's effect. But to see the obvious difference, it still takes time, just like the sage king ruled the world, it takes thirty years to bring about peace. It takes thirty years for people to practice the Tao to see the effect."

"Just like the Daoist?" Liu Xie said, "The Daoist has practiced Taoism for more than [-] years, right?"

Wang Zhi said embarrassingly: "Chen Tong Meng has been practicing for more than [-] years. It's just that the qualifications are too poor and the progress is too slow. I am ashamed to teach my master."

"Do you have any other Taoist methods besides vomiting Daoyin and bigu to keep in good health?" Jia Xu said unhurriedly: "Like me, I'm afraid I won't live for thirty years. Isn't it too late to practice Taoism?" , Is there any external force available?"

"It can be combined with medicine and bait. Although it can't live forever, it can prolong life." Wang Zhi said, took out a small box from his sleeve, and handed it to Liu Xie with both hands.Liu Xie opened the box, and there were a few pills inside, exuding a faint medicinal fragrance.

"What disease can this medicine cure?"

"Lack of energy, tired body, restless mind, sleepless dreams, all have effects."

"In addition to this kind of medicine, do you have other medicines for specific diseases?" Liu Xie closed the box. "There are many mountains and forests in Bashu, there are many poisonous insects in tigers and leopards, and the people are often sick. You must have similar medicines."

"Yes, both for internal and external use." Speaking of these, Wang Zhi finally gained confidence.

They have been preaching in Bashu for decades, in addition to offering food, they also rely on medical skills to heal people's diseases to attract people to Taoism, but their medical skills include not only medicine, but also a lot of witchcraft such as spells.I dare not talk casually about spells and the like, but medicine is still certain.

"What kind of medicine do you all use?" A voice sounded outside the tent, and then the tent door was opened, and Hua Tuo walked in with a cold air, cupping his hands. "Your Majesty, I'm late, so I didn't miss anything."

"That's right, you came just in time. Smell the medicine and see what it's made of." Liu Xie handed the box in his hand to Hua Tuo, and introduced to Wang Zhi: "This is a famous doctor from Shandong, the imperial doctor. Cheng Hua Tuo Hua Yuan Hua."
