Chapter 79 The difference between the portals
Cao Wei understood what Lin Feng said. This is also the most frequently mentioned question in Shushan. It is also the difference between the authentic Taoism and the heresy.
Needless to say, Cao Wei is a branch of the Quanzhen lineage, but he inherited his master from Ma Yu, and he also has the inner elixir true transmission such as the Dragon and Tiger Dan. He can definitely be called the authentic Taoist lineage of Taoism. If it really is
Going back even further, one can even be related to Emperor Donghua.
But Lin Feng is different. The so-called Damaoshan Sect actually has no direct inheritance relationship with the Maoshan Qing Sect, which belongs to the Taoist Sandong and Sifu. The Maoshan Qing Sect is an authentic Taoist sect, originating from Jurong Mountain in the Jiangnan generation.
Mao Zushi, Wei Yuanjun, also known as the Second Immortal Grandma in folklore, and Tao Hongjing, the prime minister of the mountain, are the ancestors.
It mainly preserves the spirit of worship, recites incantations and wears talismans, teaches scriptures and rituals, and performs fasting rituals. It also has two volumes of "Shangqing Dedong Zhenjing" and "Huangting Jing". It is a famous Taoist family that has been handed down for thousands of years. In the Song Dynasty, it was established in Longhu Mountain
, Gezao Mountain is also known as the "Three Mountain Talismans" of Jiangnan Taoism.
The Damaoshan Sect originated in the Yangtze River Basin and is mainly spread in Sichuan, Guizhou, Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi. This sect has Maoshan Li Laojun and Maoshan Dharma King as its founder.
God, catch ghosts and drive away corpses.
Essentially speaking, this is a product of the combination of Taoist folk magic and the witchcraft of the Yunnan, Guizhou, and Southwest Guizhou generations. Therefore, it has nothing to do with the Shangqing sect. Compared with it, it is just as different as the clouds and mud in the sky and the earth.
Let’s put it this way. If we compare the Shangqing Sect to today’s institutions of higher learning and those national-level scientific research institutes, then the Damaoshan Sect basically belongs to the civil sciences.
The former were guests of princes in ancient times, and the imperial court could set up a Taoist official position for them to preside over the country's sacrifices; while the latter, like barefoot doctors and folk fortune tellers, wandered around the market.
The gap cannot be calculated, so Lin Feng was naturally a little confused.
And Cao Wei can also explain this.
"It's like this. Although my lineage can be regarded as Quanzhen orthodoxy, the inheritance of the Dharma lineage is very different from the Quanzhen Longmen lineage who are less selfish and have no desire to accept ordination and practice. Especially the founder.
When I founded the sect, I had a close relationship with Master Sanfeng of Wudang Mountain, so my lineage was somewhat influenced, leaving only the rules of cultivating both law and martial arts to help the world and save people."
"Uncle Feng, to tell you the truth, in addition to a copy of the "Tao Te Ching", my Beichen Temple only has inner alchemy, boxing and swordsmanship. Originally, the Quanzhen Sect was not as good as the Zhengdao, which had many magic rituals.
In addition, I am a small family, and my means are really limited. Naturally, I am powerless, so I can only turn to you, Uncle Feng!"
"So that's it." Uncle Feng nodded, and he understood the reason. But even so, he still felt a little envious and emotional. "Having said that, senior brother is still the authentic Xuanmen. Don't talk about other things.
, After all, inner alchemy is the true method of Taoism. If you have deep blessings, you may not be able to explore the true meaning of the Tao and achieve true results. How can I..."
"I have reached the end of my life in cultivation. It is difficult to see the true path through side magic. I can only hope to accumulate more shady virtues before me, so that I can find a job underground a hundred years later, which can be regarded as joining the stream of ghosts and immortals."
This can be regarded as popularizing some differences among Taoist schools, and it can also be regarded as telling Cao Wei one of the functions of the so-called Yin De. Before Cao Wei could ask about the function of Yin De in detail, Uncle Feng also looked somewhat embarrassed.
"Supposedly, since Senior Brother has opened his mouth, I should be able to do anything. But summoning souls is not easy. If it is an ordinary ghost, it is easy to say. What I am afraid of is the kind of dead soul that has entered the underworld."
"What is the underworld?"
This was the first time Cao Wei had heard of this term, so he was naturally curious. Lin Feng also answered.
"When an ordinary person dies, there will be relatives and family members who will take care of their future generations, and they will be buried with great splendor. This funeral is actually a ceremony for the soul of the deceased to be naturalized in the underworld. The ghosts will guide them, and the ghost gate will be naturalized. After the transcendent death, they will be in the underworld from then on.
People. But there are unlucky ghosts in the world who have no relatives and no one cares about them after they die. Such people are lonely ghosts who cannot enter the underworld."
"These jars behind me are the ghosts of Kunai who have been wandering through the naturalization door for many years. And I put them here and burn incense and worship them every year and festival, just to find an opportunity to naturalize them.
The gateway to the underworld."
"My mother had a funeral back then. Does this have any impact?"
Chen Jingyi's face turned pale and she was somewhat worried. In response, Uncle Feng also shook his head.
"It's as if a legal citizen of a country was suddenly kidnapped by a group of violent bandits from abroad. Do you think there will be any impact? Once the underworld starts investigating this matter, it will not be a trivial matter. So, I also want to ask
Now, Officer Chen wants to attract the ghost of his dead mother, why exactly?"
This was a question to Chen Jingyi, so Cao Wei naturally couldn't interrupt. Chen Jingyi's face darkened when she heard this, and she truthfully told her what she thought.
"I'll be honest with you, Uncle Feng, I want to summon the ghost of my deceased mother this time because I want to solve an unjust case that happened more than ten years ago. I was only five years old at the time..."
Lin Feng once again recounted the tragic incident that happened to him and his mother. After hearing this, Lin Feng raised his eyebrows and his face suddenly changed. He was so angry that he slapped the table with his hand.
"They are worse than pigs and dogs. How can there be such vicious beasts in this world! Officer Chen, don't worry, leave this matter to me. It's fine if you say I don't know, but since you let me know about this shameful thing,
Then I have no reason to sit back and ignore it!"
"Senior brother, Officer Chen. You two sit here for a while. Once I change my clothes and prepare the magic weapon, I will directly open the altar to summon the spirit of Officer Chen's deceased mother!"
Lin Feng acted resolutely and left as soon as he said so. But just by looking at his furious attitude, as if he couldn't get a grain of sand into his eyes, Chen Jingyi felt hope.
How many years has passed! She has grown up little by little from a five-year-old girl to today. Every time she dreams back at midnight, she will recall the figure of her mother lying in a pool of blood.
She kept pushing herself, telling herself that she must avenge her mother and bring the damn murderer to justice.
But even though she studied criminal psychology diligently and graduated with good enough grades to join the police force, facing this old case from nearly twenty years ago and facing the cunning murderer who didn't show any clues at all, she
After all, I still clearly feel that hope is getting thinner and thinner.
She often worries whether the murderer is dead, has gone away, or has changed his mind!
This was not the outcome she wanted to see, but as time went by, this became the most likely thing.
She was worried and panicked, and sometimes she would even suddenly have nightmares about the murderer disappearing completely. But in the end, Cao Wei's appearance gave her hope.
It may be a bit absurd, but right now, this has become her only chance to catch the murderer, and she naturally appears to be worried about gains and losses.
One obvious sign was that she couldn't help but tightly grasp Cao Wei's arm. The force of her fingers made even the strong-boned Cao Wei couldn't help but change color on his face and almost cursed his mother.
However, considering Chen Jingyi's mood at the moment, he finally let her do what she did, and specially lowered his tone and comforted her in a low voice.
"Don't think too much! It's already the last step, just let nature take its course. Even if there is something wrong with the soul summoning, I will go find someone who is proficient in innate divine calculations and numerology. In short, there will be a way to solve it.
The murderer was found out and asked to avenge your mother!"
Ever since he saw ghosts, it was difficult for Cao Wei to completely deny the metaphysics such as Yi Shu reasoning.
Maybe this thing can really be like the boast in the novel, knowing astronomy from above and geography from below, and counting the past and present lives? Although he has always maintained a skeptical attitude towards this statement, it does not prevent him from using it as comfort.
Chen Jingyi.
It seemed that his comfort had an effect, and Chen Jingyi's nervousness had somewhat calmed down. However, she still held on to Cao Wei's arm, and she whispered in Cao Wei's ear with some thoughts.
stand up.
"When I think about maybe seeing my mother later, I feel a little nervous. I... don't know how to face her."
"I'm sorry for her. Over the years, I haven't been able to find the murderer to avenge her. I even don't dare to visit her, because when I look at her, I think of my own incompetence and my courage that day.
Xiaohe escapes, if I..."
"She won't blame you!"
Shaking his head, he also held Chen Jingyi's hand tightly. Cao Wei looked directly into her somewhat empty eyes and spoke very firmly, word by word.
"I believe there is no mother in the world who does not love her children. Even if such a tragedy happened to herself, the person she was most worried about at that time was none other than you!"
"She will want you to live well more than herself to live well. So, when she sees you again and sees that you have grown up and become such an iconic beauty, she will definitely be happy for you.
.”
"You have to believe that she is a good mother. Just like you are a good daughter, you are always running for her and always want to avenge her. You have to have this confidence!"
Perhaps Pure Yang Qi can help soothe Chen Jingyi's restless mind, but Cao Wei feels that the power of words may be the most important to her.
And sure enough, after hearing what he said, Chen Jingyi's eyes turned red, and then she couldn't help sobbing.
This was a good thing, which meant that the pressure accumulated in her heart was beginning to be released. Facing her unstoppable tears, Cao Wei blinked, took out the handkerchief and handed it to her.
passed.
"Well, just cry. But don't cry too hard. If you cry all your makeup now, then when you see your mother again later, I'm afraid you will really be embarrassed to see her!"
"It's not as serious as you said!" With a cry in her throat, Chen Jingyi hit Cao Wei hard and immediately protested for herself. "I don't wear makeup to begin with, how can it be so hard to see?
Dare you see her!"
"Can't you see it? I see you are so beautiful every day, you are like a flower in the police station. I thought you would put on heavy makeup, but I didn't expect it to be natural? Real or fake? Let me see...
"
"Go away, you glib! How could you do this!"
Maybe even Chen Jingyi herself couldn't feel it. There was already an element of flirting in her words. As an outsider, Alian, who had been eavesdropping for a while, let out a "ugh" at this time, unable to bear it.
Then he interrupted.
