It borders Zhengzhou to the east, Luoyang to the west, Yingshui to the south, and the Yellow River to the north. There is a mountain called Mount Song. Because of Confucius, the status of this mountain is second to Mount Daizong (Mount Tai), the first of the five mountains, but it is the most important mountain in Chinese culture.
The birthplace. Gods such as Huangdi and Dayu all lived in this area, and they often visited the top of Songshan Mountain.
Legend has it that these gods ride on fairy chariots, ride on dragons, travel thousands of miles in an instant, and turn their energy into a rainbow.
The splendor of the gods in ancient times is rare for people today, and people today can only see the gods of today.
There really are gods!
Zhongyue Temple was built on Junji Peak, the main peak of Taishi Mountain, the main mountain of Songshan Mountain. It was originally the holy land of Taoist Quanzhen Sect. It was destroyed by war in the 17th year of Chongzhen, and now only ruins remain.
Thirty-four-year-old Wang Changyue, wearing a purple robe (Celestial Immortal Cave robe), was sitting cross-legged in front of the Zhongyue Temple. The light snow was still falling, and strangely enough, it did not touch his robe at all, which was made of gold.
The Yuluo Xiaotai, the sun, moon and stars, the Bagua Pagoda, the crane and the unicorn all embroidered with silk and silver threads all seem to have spiritual energy and want to come out of their clothes.
Tan Shoucheng, Shi Shouping, Zhan Chun, Shao Shouxian and other disciples stood solemnly in their ordination robes.
This man is a real god! Legend has it that he passed the mantle to his disciple Tan Shoucheng during the Kangxi period and then ascended to heaven.
I don’t know if he has really become an immortal. However, as the seventh-generation lawyer of the Quanzhen Sect’s Longmen branch, he has revived the already declining Taoism, which is enough to be immortal.
Wang Changyue, whose common name is Ping, whose Buddhist name is Changyue, and whose nickname is Kunyang. He has read the classics of the three religions since he was a child. He has studied the Immortal Way for many years. Master Guang has worshiped more than 20 people. He never got a glimpse of the threshold of the Immortal Way until he met the Longmen Sect of the Quanzhen Religion.
Zhao Fuyang, the sixth-generation lawyer, had just received the true biography of the Dao. Zhao said to him: "A gentleman is poor when he is poor in the Dao, and he is connected when he is connected to the Dao. The Dao is ready for me, so why should the sect be weakened?" He was given the book "The Immortal of Heaven"
"The Great Precepts" and other esoteric methods, he was ordered to live in seclusion in Mount Huashan and worship at the fighting platform to practice.
The Longmen Sect was founded by Qiu Chuji, an elder of the Quanzhen Sect. It was widely spread during the Yuan Dynasty and had countless followers. Unfortunately, after Qiu Chuji's death, the Taoist canon was destroyed, a large number of Taoist classics were lost, and the Longmen Sect also began to decline.
Wang Changyue was determined to revitalize his sect and studied hard. A few years ago, he became a master of Taoism. He left Huashan and preached everywhere. He vowed to spread the Longmen lineage and even came to Beijing Baiyun Temple to give lectures. With his alchemy skills,
The man who frightened Emperor Shunzhi became famous for a while, and his "Longmen Heart Method" ("Biyuan Tan Sutra") was regarded as the supreme secret method.
I originally thought of recruiting more disciples in Beijing and starting a big fight. Unexpectedly, the Ming army went on the Northern Expedition, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty was obviously exhausted. Wang Changyue was an immortal who knew politics best, so she made an excuse to travel around, greased the soles of her feet, and slipped away. She came to the Taoist holy land.
The "Kongshan Cave" (Shenxian Cave) in Fuxi Peak in the east of Songshan Mountain is used to practice. This cave is the former residence of Guangchengzi, the ancient golden immortal. Emperor Xuanyuan once came here to ask Guangchengzi.
"The method of cultivation, in the final analysis, is to sweep away the six roots and six dusts, so that the five internal organs and five desires are at peace, so that the master can always live in the spiritual platform." Wang Changyue began to lecture.
"Master, what is the master? Does Lingtai refer to Lingtai point? How to sweep away the six roots and six dusts to make the five internal organs and five desires peaceful?" Disciple Tan Shoucheng asked.
Wang Changyue was very satisfied when she saw Tan Shoucheng, who was only in his teens. Among the disciples, he was the most serious and liked to ask questions. He cheerfully answered: "The master is your spirit, so that the master always lives in the spiritual platform, which means that the spirit is guarded within. The spirit is the mind of the spirit."
, the place where the person lives, Lingtai is not only the name of the acupoint, but also the residence of your mind and spirit. As long as you use your will, concentrate on the energy points of the mind, cultivate the ancestral energy, warm and nourish the innate, reach the extreme of emptiness, keep quiet, and be pure and undivided, the spirit will
Hidden in the Wuji, the extreme is the Taiji, the light of natural wisdom arises, and the Yuanyang comes back."
Tan Shoucheng was a little confused, "Master, other sects are all pursuing 'ascension in the day' and 'body becoming immortal', why do you emphasize spiritual practice?"
"'Ascending in the day' and 'turning into an immortal with the body' are both small ways. Keeping the spirit within is the supreme way. If you want to cultivate the immortal way, you must first cultivate the human way. If the human way is not cultivated, the immortal way is far away! In today's world, why can't the great way work?
Sad? It’s just because the true teaching of this teaching ‘cannot save oneself, only save others’, so saving others first saves oneself, and the most important thing in cultivating the Tao is to be true to one’s mind.
"Master, how should we save ourselves?"
"You should take the clear mind and nature as your purpose, take precepts, concentration, and wisdom as the path, learn from Confucianism and Buddhism, and integrate the three teachings into one. You should be self-disciplined by the first true precepts, the intermediate precepts, and the great precepts of the gods, and obey
In the current situation, cultivate your mind carefully, see the mind of the saints, saints and immortal Buddhas, understand the principles of the saints, saints and immortal Buddhas, understand the methods of the saints, saints and immortal Buddhas, practice the deeds of the saints, saints and immortal Buddhas, become the body of the saints, saints and immortal Buddhas, stay away from the heretical ways, and rectify the mysterious wind.
Revitalize the religion.
The founder's words were wonderful, and all the disciples were mesmerized by the words. Every pore on their bodies felt warm.
Suddenly, Wang Changyue's ears twitched, and she walked towards the open space and smiled softly: "Master is here, why don't you show up and have a cup of tea?
"Hahaha, as expected of Wang Changyue, he can actually see through the whereabouts of the old monk. Amitabha!"
Before anyone arrived, the voice came first and sang a song, "Thirty-six peaks are like buns, and pedestrians come and go soothingly. The white clouds suddenly close up, and they are all in the ethereal space." The word "Jian" has just fallen, and it is about six years old.
The old monk with ten white beards appeared.
Tan Shoucheng, Shi Shouping, Zhan Chun, and Shao Shoushan couldn't help but change their expressions. Over the years, they had not only practiced Taoism with their master, but also practiced internal martial arts. Their spiritual senses were extremely sharp. It was really amazing that this old monk was able to hide this from themselves.
Wang Changyue didn't care, and said with a smile: "Shou Shan, go and pour a cup of wild tea for Zen Master Haikuan."

Songshan Mountain is a holy mountain common to the three religions. On the main mountain, Taishi Mountain, there are the Confucian Songyang Academy, the Taoist Kongshan Cave, and the Zhongyue Temple; on the Shaoshi Mountain, there are many Zen temples such as the Shaolin Temple.
Shaolin martial arts is famous all over the world, and the presiding Zen Master Haikuan is so outstanding in martial arts that he can hide it from Wang Changyue's disciples, so it's no problem.
During the reign of Emperor Xiaoming of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Bodhidharma, the 28th generation Buddhist of Sakyamuni, traveled across the ocean to Shaolin Temple, gathered believers, taught Zen Buddhism, and also brought martial arts.
In the hall of the Thousand Buddhas Hall, you can see pot-bottom-shaped round pits everywhere, which were made by the monks who painstakingly practiced martial arts and stepped on them with their feet. There are fists, feet and clubs, swords, guns, swords and halberds, three-pronged forks, Emei thorns, crescent shovels, and halberds and sickles.
Tiger-head hooks, wind magic wands... everything is available. Among Buddhist temples in the world, only Shaolin Temple can be called "monk soldiers". At this time, there are still 800 monk soldiers protecting the temple.
The Ming Dynasty was quite good to the Shaolin Temple. For every Shaolin presiding officer who took over, the Senglu Department of the Ministry of Rites would replace documents for them. In the twelfth year of Chongzhen (1639), Haikuan's master Huixi passed away, and Haikuan accepted the court documents and established the Shaolin Temple.
The twenty-eighth generation abbot. Then, the peasant army came to attack Shaolin. Haikuan led the monk soldiers to fight hard and defended this thousand-year-old inheritance.
When the Qing court heard about his name, in the third year of Shunzhi, they planned to imitate the Ming Dynasty's Shaolin abbot appointment system and give him a Qing court official, but he excused himself from illness.
Now the Qing court was no longer at ease with him and carefully monitored him everywhere.
??
"Master wants to contact me, the Longmen Sect, to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty together?"
Wang Changyue remained silent as Haikuan explained his intention. He knew that the Manchu Qing Dynasty was over, otherwise he would not have left Beijing. But what benefit would such a dangerous thing have to our Longmen sect?
Haikuan smiled slightly and asked his disciple Yongyu to hand over a letter, "This is a letter written by Tao, the commander of Jinyi Guards in the Ming Dynasty. Tao Zhangyin personally promised that if you are willing to help the Ming Dynasty regain Luoyang, he will ask the imperial court to issue a certificate to the Longmen Sect.
Clerk. Now that tigers and wolves are rampant, Lawyer Wang should work with me to slay the demons.
It turned out that Tao Cheng felt the pressure after seeing Ma Jixiang's many meritorious deeds and his growing love for the saints. He also wanted to make great achievements and win Zhu Hengjia's favor, so he appointed his younger brother Tao Xian as the Jinyiwei Qianhu in Henan, and ordered him to bring his own handwritten letter to instigate
Shaolin Temple, Longmen Sect and other religious forces revolted.
After seeing Tao Cheng's autographed letter, Wang Changyue felt that there was an opportunity to revitalize the sect and said softly, "The master wants to kill the demons, but the poor Taoist dare not obey."
