Jiang Tenghe said that the "Water and Stone Alchemy Sutra" came from Yin Gui, a real person from the upper world who descended to the earth. Zhao Ran was always puzzled by this. He had heard many rumors about real people from the upper world and from the lower world, as well as Padmasambhava's performance in the world. At this moment, I couldn't help but ask: "Teacher, I have a question: Why do the lower realms of immortals and gods mostly appear before the Wei and Jin Dynasties, but rarely recorded after the mid-Tang Dynasty? Especially six hundred years after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, more It has never appeared once. It has only ascended, but has never come down to earth. What is the reason for this?"
Jiang Tenghe said: "The question you asked is also a question asked by the teacher. It is not only a question asked by the teacher, but also a question asked by your master. It is also a question asked by our Taoist sect's senior cultivators above the Lianxu realm. I cannot answer this question. , I can only tell you that Taoism has a speculation that has lasted for hundreds of years, and perhaps an era of Dharma-ending is about to come."
The amount of information was really large and complicated. Zhao Ran asked several questions, but Jiang Tenghe couldn't answer any of them. Zhao Ran had to give up, but he had already realized that maybe in four or five hundred years, what the teacher said would be The end of the Dharma era will really come.
Jiang Tenghe continued to talk about the "Shui Shi Dan Jing": "Lou Guan is an ancient sect with a long history. At that time, there was no distinction between inner and outer elixirs. Therefore, when entrusting spiritual consciousness after the elixir was completed, there was no such thing as entrusting talismans. There is also no reliance on the theory of golden elixir. After the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the theory of inner elixir gradually came into being. This was because the black and yellow colors of heaven and earth gradually became clearer and the energy of chaos gradually dissipated."
What does it mean? This means that with the disappearance of the energy of chaos, it is difficult to find innate spiritual materials in the world. In order to deal with this situation, many outstanding seniors of the Taoist sect have created two new paths, either using talismans to replace innate spiritual materials. Using spiritual consciousness or the golden elixir in the body as the sustenance to replace the innate spiritual materials, from this point on, the heavenly master and the real person have a real meaning.
??The Lou Guan takes a different approach, using the water and stone concept passed down by the ancestors to coexist the objects of sustenance inside and outside at the same time. Therefore, the "Water and Stone Alchemy Classic" is actually divided into two parts. The first half is mainly based on the water and stone alchemy technique taught by Liang Zu, and the second half is mainly based on the spiritual consciousness sustenance method supplemented by Master Hou Zuda.
After Jiang Tenghe finished speaking, he threw a book to Zhao Ran. Zhao Ran quickly took it and flipped through it. It seemed that it was not that long ago. Looking at the postscript on the last page, it was written by Zhao Ran's teacher, Master Lu, saying, It was copied one day and passed on to his disciple Jiang Tenghe.
It turned out to be a copy, not the original version of the ancient book, so Zhao Ran asked: "Teacher, where is the original version of this sutra? Can I let my disciples have a look at it?"
Jiang Tenghe said: "It was lost a long time ago, and this is the only one left. If you want to compare and verify it, you can go to Zongguan to search. I remember that there is one in the Taoist Canon. Oh, by the way, didn't the Jade Emperor Pavilion give us a set of Louguan?" Daozang? There should be some in there."
Zhao Ran was a little confused. Isn¡¯t this the secret of Lou Guan? How come Dao Zangli was made public?
Quickly flipping through the "Water and Stone Alchemy Sutra", I saw that it was written in sloppy small regular script: "Water is a good matchmaker for the way to return elixirs. You must find the treasure in the Hua Chi. Just bury the sand under the black stone. Don't rashly harm the three talents." . The two words "water and stone" are derived from things. Water is called gold water, also known as lead and mercury, also known as green dragon and white tiger, also known as Kanli. A good matchmaker is true water and true fire. The scripture says: There is flying and falling inside, and there is support and help outside. . Stone is the name of the true soil in the north, which is born from gold and water. Nowadays, many people put silver powder into cinnabar and lead, and turn it into a world treasure. They think it is white gold. How can it be natural? And if you use lead instead of lead, you have all three talents. How can it be the true principle to gain silver by pursuing success at the expense of the three talents Therefore, "Yi Zhi" says: The white metal essence is a yang, and the black water essence is a yin. This fact reveals a mystery, and scholars of Taoism can understand it carefully. Take a look and understand naturally"
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out of two paragraphs, Zhao Ran became even more confused. This is indeed the content of returning the elixir, and it should be true. But since it is a secret, how can it be revealed to the world casually? Is there any secret to this?
But I heard Jiang Tenghe say: "Don't read it now. When my teacher teaches you the meditation method, you can then compare it with the scriptures, otherwise it will be useless to just read the scriptures."
I see! Zhao Ran breathed a sigh of relief, sat upright, and let Jiang Tenghe pour a picture into his mind:
The scroll is completely blank, with only a few strokes: a clear spring comes from nowhere and flows to it.
Only water, no stone? Zhao Ran withdrew from the visualization picture, calmed down, and entered again. It was still the clear spring where the antelope hung his horns and he couldn't understand what was going on.
What¡¯s the point?
Jiang Tenghe's voice came to his ears: "Water is soft and stone is strong, one yin and one yang. There are two levels in the world. When you can see water through stone, your water and stone return elixir water will enter the second level. Wait for you When you see water and stone at the same time, and the two pictures overlap into one, it is the third level."
It turns out that the real key to the "Water and Stone Alchemy Sutra" is here. Without the visualization diagram, studying the scriptures for a lifetime is useless. The real core lies in this picture scroll.
This is the same as the cheap godmotherMy sister Zhu Qigu taught him that the three images of meditation were based on the same truth. In many cases, the inheritance of skills cannot be understood by reading a book. Without a teacher to pass down the most critical visualization diagrams, you will not be able to learn it no matter how you learn it.
"If Zhao Ran still hadn't worshiped in the tower and was still just practicing on his own, it would be absolutely impossible for him to practice such advanced Taoism. He can go to Tao Zang and read the "Shui Shi Dan Jing", but no matter how familiar he is, what's the use?
Zhao Ran suddenly remembered that when Master Lu passed away, there was only one disciple left in Lou Guan, Jiang Tenghe. If Jiang Tenghe unfortunately died at that time, or died before senior brother Wei Zhizhen reached Jindan, what would happen to Lou Guan's inheritance? Isn¡¯t it just cut off?
? Continuing to trace back from this, in the six hundred years of Lou Guan, especially in the past two hundred years, there have been five consecutive dangerous situations of single disciples. As long as they are not continued once, Lou Guan Kung Fu will be discontinued.
It¡¯s really dangerous!
But as the saying goes, Lou Guan's lineage has survived the most dangerous moment when Jiang Tenghe was alone, and now such a crisis will finally not happen again - all four disciples of the second generation have obtained the visualization diagram of the Water and Stone Alchemy Sutra, and this sect The technique is worry-free for now. Unless all four disciples met with misfortune, there would be a crisis in Lou Guan, but this possibility was too small.
Jiang Tenghe added: "When you enter the third level, you can entrust your spiritual consciousness according to the content of the second chapter. At that time, your spiritual consciousness can be placed both outside and inside. When fighting with others, you can use it at any time. It is a magic weapon that is destined to be used, so there is no need to worry about being injured.¡±
Zhao Ran nodded: "I understand, teacher."
The power of Lou Guan Kung Fu lies in this. You can use your own ultimate moves to fight with others as you like. You don¡¯t have to worry about damage to your life at all, because others can¡¯t hurt your life at all.
