Pindao should be robbed

Chapter 45
This Linyun Cliff Grotto is the place where Maolu Erdao practices magic and sorcery. It is not a place to practice quiet Taoism, so you can't stay for a long time.

Liu Qiao remembered that he had a good feeling, and the two hurriedly cleaned up, and left Maoshan in a half-cloud and half-mist.

"Master, there is a big city not far in front of it, it's called Yanzhou, I bought the silk knife and pen there."

Liu Qiao said: "Then go to Yanzhou and find a place to settle in the city. Let's practice Taoism before we go."

After traveling for only a hundred miles, under the clouds and mists, there is a city with a circumference of more than ten miles. It is bustling with people, and the scenery of the people is slightly different from Chaoge.

The two masters and apprentices lowered their heads far away, and changed their attires again.

Liu Qiao is dressed in a wandering style, wearing a tattered road scarf and a yellow cedar whisk. Chang Long still looks like a Tuo head, with a string of beads hanging from his neck, and his chest is exposed.

I also followed the hawkers who carried charcoal and sold melons, fruits and dates into the city.

"Where do you come from?" The soldiers at the entrance of the city bowed.

Seeing that he was very respectful, Liu Qiao said, "I came from the Eastern Dynasty, and my master and apprentice are all good families. Why did the military master stop me?"

The soldier said solemnly: "A few days ago when the sage of Xibo returned from paying tribute, fortunately there was an immortal family to rescue him and drive away the tigers and wolves. Now he has issued an announcement widely to recruit Taoists and strangers. It is not to stop him, but to remind him at the gate of the city."

Chang Long said in a muffled voice: "What is the method of recruiting? Could it be that one person is rewarded with ten thousand gold, a purple robe and jade belt, and entering the cabinet as a greeting?"

"That would not dare to violate the system, but I have two hundred towns in Xiqi. If you send a stranger to pay tribute to Qizhou, you will lose your official position with the stranger. Either you are the commander-in-chief, or you are the commander-in-chief of the food system. They are all powerful troops. post, and rewards ranging from hundreds of gold to thousands of gold." The soldier replied.

After saying that, he said again: "So I am waiting for the state government. All Taoists and strangers who enter the country have to go to the government office to report. If they succeed, they will be rewarded. If they fail, they will be copied and given some porridge and millet."

It turned out that it was after Xibo Marquis Jichang first got the help of a stranger Liu Qiao, and was supported by the hundredth son Lei Zhenzi, and returned to Xiqi after passing five passes in one day.

Deeply aware of the magical power of the immortal family, he issued an announcement to let all the [-] towns under his command pay tribute to Taoists, Toutuo, and strangers, and give them military posts according to their abilities.

In this way, many capable people and strangers voted for Xiqi, but the high-ranking officials in the government are all ordinary people, how can they know the true sage.

The generation of saxu and troublemakers have some small skills and exquisite skills, and they are high-ranking officials. They really have the skills of bow, horse, martial arts and Taoism.

Liu Qiao twisted his beard and said with a smile: "The sage Xibo is good at Taoism, so I don't have any special skills. I just like to admire Taoism scriptures. I am neither a judge nor a high-ranking man. I am just a medical skill, but I still have to go Did the yamen report it?"

The soldier saw that Liu Qiao's master and apprentice were busy in the world, and their clothes were torn. They really didn't look like an expert, so they waved their hands contemptuously and said: "Forgive your Dongfang Chaoge, and it's true. Even if you're not a judge, let's go to the city. If you have nowhere to rest, just go to the yamen, where there are vegetarian offerings and accommodation in the wing room."

The so-called judge is not the litigator who is in charge of the law in later generations, but it is also the same. At this time, the official Taoist who has taught the Dharma plate and talisman, and can write alchemy and curse water, is in charge of the law of the Heavenly Palace.

Generally walking in the world, specializing in relieving boredom for wealthy families, looking at Fengshui, they are not counted as celestial qi refiners, they can only be shamans, who can help Luan and invite immortals, because most of them have been passed down from their ancestors to the Heavenly Palace, or learned from Yin Jurisprudence , as a mage, so he is also called a judge.

After entering the city, Chang Long said angrily: "This pawn doesn't know that my master is the real immortal Yuxu, and he also said that I am the supreme sage in the east, Gao Zhen, and my master is very modest. Why don't you use some Taoism to open up with him? vision."

"They didn't say anything, it's just that the east and the west are contemptuous of each other."

Liu Qiaoxin said that his family is considered a holy man, the current mana power is barely two years old, Yuanshen Taoism has not yet reached the threshold, Taoism has two subjects, and one of them has not yet been completed.

However, Chang Long's confidence in him has greatly increased since seeing Liu Qiao enlightened in Maoshan.

Just kidding, Chang Long has lived for 700 years, and has had a lot of contacts with old demons, and the ancestor Ju Qing who has practiced for thousands of years has also seen him from afar.

But I haven't seen the one that can manifest the Tao. That feeling, although only for a moment, seems to be in front of my eyes, let alone Liu Qiao who has only practiced for a few years.

At that time, Chang Long called out in his heart, "My teacher Liu Qiao has the qualifications of a great sage!!"

"Then shall we go to the yamen to perform spells and have some fast food and offerings in the meditation hall?"

Liu Qiao looked at him in surprise and said: "Didn't you pick up some gold, pearls and shellfish when you burned that village, and you don't need money, what are you going to do?"

"Hey, there are a few, but it's a pity that most of them were taken away by some gangsters when they left..." Chang Long rubbed his bulging bag and smiled foolishly.

The cottage was burned to ashes by Chang Long, but some gold and jade were not afraid of the fire, but turned into lumps and still glowed in the eternity.

Most of them were the old thief's hidden savings, and Chang Long dug them out and picked them up.

Liu Qiao shook his head, handed a page of silk script to Chang Long and said, "Go and buy a quieter mansion, and then according to what is written here, buy some incense, candles, ink, and yellow flags for the table. Let's write the next chapter. Once you have practiced your skills, go to Xiqi."

"Then master will wait for me in this inn to have some food and drink, and I will come in a short time."

Chang Long accepted the silk letter and promised, then handed some money to Liu Qiao, told him to have some drinks in the tavern and wait, and then he went.

.........

After half a day.

Chang Long finished the affairs and bought a dark and secluded mansion a few miles west of Yanzhou City, deep in the hills and forests.

This car is really a good place to go. I can only see that in the middle of the mountain depression; there is a wide open space, which was once a hunting ground for the wealthy people.

If you build a Zen nunnery and Taoist temple, there are thousands of households, and you are afraid that you will not be able to make birds and green birds; but if you build a ghost cave altar, you will live there for half a year, and you will never hear chickens and dogs barking.

Good guy, this piece of gardens, terraces and pavilions, flower beds and waterside pavilions, vermilion wooden buildings, connected by corridors, twists and turns, covers an area of ​​tens of mu. Uncle Chang bought all of them out of money, and used them as a place for practicing exercises.

There are two warehouses outside the house, which are full of Dharma materials. The expensive ones are like gold and pearls, the cheap ones are like wood and stones, the rich ones are like beans and wheat, the burnt ones are like coal, the thin ones are like needles and threads, the clear ones are like tea and wine, and the miscellaneous ones If the medicinal materials are all piled up in the warehouse, just use the refining method.

First practice the Taoism of the next chapter, and order Chang Long to lead the warriors to set up an altar on your side. Both the master and the apprentice will take a bath and fast in advance, and they will not drink meat or alcohol.

The Taoism of the next chapter was also introduced by Liu Qiao, combined with the altar arrangement of Jiang Shang’s legendary door Dunjia, it can be completed in 49 days, saving years of complicated sacrifices.

Choose the auspicious day of Liujia for this altar, and set the homespun bags in five directions, about a foot away from each other. New bricks are built around it, about one foot and five inches high, and the empty spaces are filled with five grains and rice.

There are three bright lamps on it, which last day and night, and a divine tent made of yellow cloth is used for the outside.

In front, there is an incense table for offerings to Jiama Yunhe, all of which are made of paper, grass, leather, and silk. There are three kinds of tea, wine and fruit.

Recite the Liujia Spirit Summoning Mantra once a day to invite spirits, purify the body and mouth the Land Mantra once to clear the altar, offer the Requiem Mantra three times to raise the grass man Jia Ma Yunhe's spirituality, and then practice according to the law every day. This is a routine, so there is no need to elaborate .

The next day after the altar was set up, Liu Qiao summoned Chang Long. Both of them dressed like wizards with swords in their hair. They held wooden swords in their hands, stepped on Kuigang, pinched Liujia talisman seals, captured the anger of all parties into the altar, and burned talismans and incense. , using mana to refine the spell.

It is like this every day, without realizing that the time is short, that is, 49 days have passed. In the altar, the grass, talismans, mantras, armored horses, and cloud paper are all sacrificed to practice spirituality. Then Taoist soldiers can be changed according to law.

Only this last step was left, Liu Qiao called Chang Long to come forward and teach in secret: "The psychic offering of sacrifices has now been accomplished. When it comes time to use it, you have to use your form to capture the breath. What do you want this talisman to be used for? To contemplate this."

"How do you call it "containing energy with form, visualize a horse, my disciple is stupid, please be merciful, master, don't use hidden words, tell me clearly..." Chang Long bowed sincerely.

Liu Qiao laughed while twisting his beard: "Have you ever seen a fierce beast or a stranger, take a wisp of its breath, and blow it into a grass, vine and armored horse when you are ready to use it, this is to take the breath with form.

The so-called visualization is to be familiar with the shape of the object, to know its demeanor, to understand its demeanor. If you want to change into a tiger, you will be a tiger if you throw it out. If you want to become a wolf, you will be a wolf if you throw it out. This is the principle. "

Chang Long suddenly realized that he had to see something first, take a breath, memorize its shape, and recite mantras and spells to conjure it.

I sigh that there is no such good teacher in the world. At this time, the teachers and apprentices of the Xianjia are all secretly giving tips. If you have the heart, you can break the riddle in the plate, and you are wise if you understand it.

If you can't break the hidden mystery, you can't get enlightened, and the master won't talk about it again. It's just that he has a superficial root and can't achieve it without this fate.

Even Jiang Shang gave Liu Qiao the fairy book directly, and let him learn to practice it by himself, but fortunately, before Liu Qiao obtained the method, he and Jiang Shang knew the ancient characters, dragon chapters and phoenix seal characters.

He himself was attentive to him, reading Taoism scriptures and asking hidden words, Jiang Shang was also a master, and he was impatient with being entangled, so he taught him some terminology. After two years of study, he has a profound foundation in Taoism scriptures.

Seeing that Chang Long was thinking, Liu Qiao said again: "It's just that it's just superficial, and you can't appreciate the reality. Most of the changes are tangible but not spiritual. It's like that Mao Lu's two ways, but it's just false and bluffing.

And the same Taoism, practiced by different people, the effect will be different, it all depends on your own diligent study, if you can understand the spirituality of all things, then the things in the sky will change freely, and they will all seem real. "
