"Zhao Changshi, the altar has been properly arranged."
A few days later, He Dangguan came to the mansion to report that Zhao Shui was writing an empty book in the house. A cloud of light green smoke rose from the incense burner in front of him, like a talisman-like curved line with different thicknesses. Zhao Shui compared it. On the table map, carefully add a few strokes in the smoke lines.
"I know." Zhao Mo touched the mustache around his mouth, made a faint mark with the Qingxuan pen, dispersed the smoke, pointed to a few boxes on the side: "Call someone to move these spiritual materials to the mandala. , move more gently."
"Yes." He Tangguan immediately went down and ordered the men.
These days, Yuan Wujiao led a group of Lutan soldiers and traveled through the underground of Jianjia Pass. After some surveys, he had roughly figured out the trend of the nearby ground veins. Zhao Shu tried to translate it into talisman and seal script to refine it. A map of the true shape of mountains and rivers.
If you want to stabilize the mountains and rivers, it will be extremely difficult to implement them without the true shape of the mountains and rivers. Unless you are a local like Tiegong and Hengbi Gong who directly grasp the mountains and rivers, and the geological survey and conformity, otherwise you can only explore on your own.
But Zhao Shui now has the Iron Order, a spiritual spirit refined from Tiegong's legacy. In addition to summoning officials and soldiers, commanding ghosts and gods to go anywhere, he also has an unusually uncanny sense of the mountains and rivers.
In addition, with Zhao Miao's attainments in talismans, he is now trying to sort out the earth's veins and translate the mountains and rivers in the Jianjiaguan area into true talismans, but he can barely achieve two or three points.
If you use the mandala rituals to greatly expand your spiritual senses, you should be able to gain deeper insights and gain wider insights.
Mountains and rivers are full of qi, and there are clear and turbid, yin and yang. If we completely ignore the human world, the qi of the earth is a natural creation. If left to run and change, it can not only sprout and nourish all things, but also cause the earth to grow. It shakes the mountains and destroys all living beings.
But for the people of the world, they naturally hope to seek good fortune and avoid evil, to gain benefits and avoid harm. When Liang Tao asked Zhao Shu to sort out the earth's veins, he must have hoped to seize the benefits of the earth's veins.
For monsters and monsters, the mountains, rivers and earth veins are like the roads in the human world. The energy flowing in them is the material that nourishes them. The earth veins are also the passages for them to sneak around. Therefore, there is no need to cross paths with mortals in the world to avoid shocking the world and causing trouble.
Similarly, it is not beneficial for mortals to mix monsters and ghosts with mortals. If they are contaminated with the unhealthy energy of the five elements, they are prone to illness and harm. Therefore, it is clear that humans and ghosts should live in their own place. Humans live in the sun world, and ghosts live in the netherworld. This is the way of Liang Tao's human world. The basis was also the original approach of the Tianxia Dynasty.
As a descendant of the official of the Tianxia Dynasty, Zhao Shu knew very well that it was impossible to eliminate all the demons and ghosts in the world. The battle to kill evil by the Cangshui River was also caused by many reasons, and it required the intervention of experts from the Xian family such as Liang Tao. It can be resolved, otherwise there will be endless consequences.
If you want to restrain demons and ghosts, killing alone is not enough. If you can completely control and regulate the energy of heaven and earth, you will get twice the result with half the effort.
In the future, Liang Tao will establish a Taoist kingdom in the world, in order to use scientific rituals and laws to control the destiny of a country's heaven and earth. This is like setting up the heaven and earth rules, so that all monsters and monsters can have no escape, and life and death depend on Liang Tao's thoughts.
However, such a grand plan cannot be accomplished overnight, especially because the Qi movement of the earth's veins is of great importance. For example, the instability of the Qi machinery in the mountains and rivers around Jianjiaguan obviously hindered Liang Tao's layout.
It is true that Liang Tao's cultivation and magic power were at the peak of his time, but it does not mean that he is proficient in everything and knows everything. Moreover, with Zhao Shu's current attainments in rituals and rituals, he has gradually realized the difference between it and the cultivation of immortality. .
Just like Lingxiao and Zhao Xiao's previous discussion about immortals, mortals, fishes and dragons. The immortal way strives to be independent and never change, and its journey is not in danger, and even opens up a cave to the sky, forming its own pattern and law, not connected with the earthly world. In the end, it is to abandon the mundane world.
The waves of the great river are like transforming into a dragon and flying into the sky.
The pursuit of the lineage of Zanliguan is close to the divine way. Harmony with heaven and earth is its foundation. Helping people and benefiting materials is its purpose. Be sincere and sincere, and be able to live in harmony with heaven and earth. It was not known before.
In the view of the Praise Officer, the great virtue of heaven and earth is life, so we should pay close attention to heaven and earth, praise transformation and education. The human body and nature are on the same journey, and we should seek to harmonize man and nature, and the heart and reason, so that we can benefit all living beings containing spirits and live up to the great virtue of heaven and earth.
.
Although Xuanmen Immortalism also attaches great importance to heaven and earth, the foundation of its theory is different. Xuanmen Immortalism believes that heaven and earth also have their own ups and downs, and that nothing in the world can escape fate. Heaven and earth have their own destiny, and there is no end to life and death. There is no such thing as great virtue.
Hansheng.
Immortal cultivators seek the laws of the heavens and the earth. Just because ordinary people fall into the acquired world, they must abandon their worldly thoughts and return to the innate world. They must seize the opportunity of heaven and earth's creation. They must understand the original emptiness and tranquility of the great road and let it be transformed. They must escape from the beginning of heaven and earth and arch into nothingness.
For monks in the world, there is no difference between the two paths at the beginning. They both need to concentrate on regulating the breath, and they also need to be quiet and meditative. However, as the realm deepens, subtle differences will appear.
In the same way, they mobilize the energy of heaven and earth to perform magic. Xuanmen Immortal monks rely on their own cultivation and magic power. Even spells and magic weapons must be refined and nourished by the monk's own true energy and magic power.
The Praise Officer is different. He pursues the integration of his own Qi and the Qi of heaven and earth. He is sincere and upholds the law. He acts on behalf of Heaven. He can stir up clouds and rain with one thought and criticize the country with a single stroke. His own Qi is inseparable from the creation of heaven and earth. His movements are natural.
It has the power of heaven and earth.
This is why Liang Tao took a fancy to Zhao Shu's rituals and rituals, because even if this master of the state tried his best, he could not affect the flow of energy in the entire Huaxu Kingdom. The world is vast, even Liang
Tao is just a drop in the ocean.
If the mandala rituals are complete and complete, Liang Tao's immortal magic power can be greatly increased tens of millions of times. In an instant, he can connect the heaven and earth of Huaxu Kingdom, pave the way for the human world, and thousands of miles of rivers and mountains.
He's in control.
Standing on the Dharma altar, Zhao Shu thought a lot. There were some things that Lingxiao might not be able to see clearly enough. Zhao Shu knew that he would have to face the differences between immortal and divine ways in the future, but at that time, hesitation and hesitation was a recipe for disaster.
You need to make up your mind early.
As soon as he slapped the token, the altar trembled slightly, and the deep well in front of the altar soared into the sky. The light condensed into a seal. This was the fundamental seal that Liang Tao had set up at Jianjia Pass in the past, in order to transform the earth's energy and launch the restriction.
It covers Guancheng, especially to protect against snakes and insect poisons summoned by Jiuli Kingdom's witch Zhu.
Zhao Shumo used Yingxuan's art of illuminating the scenery, taking in the charm of the talismans. Then he carefully recalled his recent study of the "Nine Heavens Ziwen Dan Zhang", and he already had some concerns in his mind.
Then Zhao Shu held out the Xuanpu jade album, which was unfolded like a bamboo slip. He raised his pen and made dots, and the ripples on the surface of the jade album floated, outlining a talisman for connecting earth veins and springs.
Zhao Shu turned around and printed the spiritual talisman on an iron pillar. This iron pillar was cast to straighten the earth's veins. It was hollow inside and filled with various spiritual materials and talismans that had been refined through sacrifice. There were eight iron ropes hanging down, each with an altar.
The officials and soldiers sent him to guide him.
After finishing writing the talisman, Zhao Mian walked around the altar and bowed in all directions. Finally, he returned to the altar and patted the Dharma table.
The color of the world changes, and the clouds surge.
In Jianjia Pass, although Zhao Miao had already ordered the idlers not to go out today for the sake of rituals, there were still many soldiers stationed everywhere. They were shocked when they saw the change in the sky, and there was a majestic momentum above them, which was awe-inspiring.
"Nowadays, Tuhuaxu Kingdom's Jianjiaguan territory is uncertain, and ghosts and gods are restless. Xiaozhao Huaiying Hall has scattered its minister Zhao Shu. I would like to accept the power of Tiancao and the prayers of the descendants of Fu. I will set up iron pillars to open up the potential channel and lead the clear spring to open up the stronghold.
.The small omen prays, the people are pious, follow the orders and ask for help, and the gods will learn from it!"
Zhao Miao raised his head to the sky and sang, the energy around his body surged outwards, and the five-direction welcoming talisman soared into the sky and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
After a while, the heaven and the earth seemed to be connected, and the five qi passed through the sky like a rainbow, coming towards the Gong Mandala and lingering around. Zhao Shu raised his pen and pointed at the talisman of the Tongquan ground veins, and the five qi became silent and lifted up the iron pillar.
Eight iron ropes hang down into the well in front of the altar.
As soon as the iron rope entered the well, it immediately made a clattering sound. If any bystanders peeked, they would see that the iron rope continued to extend in a way that was beyond common sense, and had greatly exceeded the original length of casting.
Iron ropes were driven into the ground and hooked to lock the earth veins. This was done to prevent the spring flow from being too strong when the earth veins were being combed out later, which would shake the earth veins and cause earthquake disasters.
Half an hour later, the sound of the iron rope gradually stopped. Zhao Shu raised his pen and drew it again. The five qi climbed up the iron pillar, like a mountain pressing against the top. Together with the talisman and seal script set by Liang Tao, they were thrown into the well.
With this method, the restrictions covering Jianjia Pass also changed drastically. The sky above the pass was dark and unclear. Sometimes the wind howled, sometimes there were bursts of thunder, and even tongues of fire spewed out from the clouds. The soldiers could even see the scales and claws of the dragon looming, awe-inspiring.
Spectacular.
But Zhao Shu knew clearly that this was not a real dragon appearing, but that he was using his own methods to welcome the energy from the five directions of heaven and earth. However, the energy between heaven and earth is mixed, and different races have leftover energy, so it is inevitable that they will be summoned together.
Come, so the shape of a dragon appears in the clouds.
After a while, the iron pillar penetrated into the well, and the earth vein spring talisman took effect immediately. The sound of springs under the well continued, as if a mighty river was rushing underground.
Although there are water veins in the ground, there will not be such a sound of water. The earth vein spring talisman attracts not only the underground water veins and springs, but the air induction machine to flush the earth veins, breaking away the blockage and siltation in it in one fell swoop.
, to widen and extend cramped places is also to stabilize fragile and unstable places.
The method of sorting out the earth's veins passed down from Xuan Pu Tang is indeed very subtle and profound. It was originally used to cultivate blessed land and build caves.
According to common sense, a person who cultivates immortality has to sort out the earth's veins, and it is not a temporary achievement. Therefore, most monks will choose a blessed land to live in a house.
However, Zhao Shui's method of opening the altar, welcoming spirits from all directions, stimulating the stagnant Qi in the earth's veins, and even consuming all kinds of precious spiritual materials at all costs, can achieve quick results. If it were other places where the earth's veins were stable, Zhao Shui would not be able to do this.
means.
Another hour passed, and the sound of the springs calmed down, and Zhao Shui could hear the reports from the officials at Lutan, saying that wells and ponds were gushing springs again inside and outside Jianjia Pass. Fortunately, the water diversion ditches were repaired in advance and no disaster occurred.
Once the earth veins are combed and expanded, the water veins will surge and gush as soon as the Qi movement occurs. However, after that, the earth veins Qi movement will be smooth and stable, and there will be no occasional springs, which can be regarded as avoiding a hidden danger in Jianjia Pass.
When the Qi of the local meridians was unblocked, in a trance, the surrounding mountains and rivers seemed to flow into Zhao Shu's mind. The true shapes of the mountains and rivers were naturally extracted and turned into talismans and imprinted into his brain.
At the same time, the earth energy machine was activated for a moment, and the clouds in the sky above Jiajia Pass stirred and changed, and the scene of undulating mountains actually appeared, like a mirage, making it difficult to distinguish reality from fiction.
Zhao Shu had an inexplicable feeling that the natural mountains and rivers are ruthless, but there are great virtues and great feelings that carry all things and nurture vitality. These vast mountains and rivers may seem speechless, but they condense the passage of time through the ages, waiting for the world to appreciate.
Thousands of peaks are green, hundreds of valleys are rushing, and the vicissitudes condensed here over countless years contain vast vitality. The wonders of heaven and earth are like a mysterious picture scroll, slowly unfolding in front of Zhao Shui's mind.
Zhao Shu seemed to have seen the vicissitudes of the prehistoric world. His eyes were like the sun, moon and stars shining down on the earth, watching the mountains on the earth rise, overgrown vegetation, species competing, and the alternation of prehistoric times...
"Don't be addicted!"
The sound of jade bells vibrated, and a word from the Lingxiao awakened Zhao Shu, allowing him to escape from the illusion in his mind.
Zhao Shu suddenly broke into a cold sweat and said in Lingxiao: "You are taking too many risks! You are trying to take the true form of the mountains and rivers for your own use. We know that the creation of heaven and earth is vast and profound. With your current cultivation level, it is difficult to understand its secrets. If you are not careful, you will be destroyed.
The soul is lost in it, and the energy of the whole body disperses between the heaven, earth, mountains and rivers.
The true form of the mountains and rivers is the foundation that conceives the earth and summons all the spirits in the mountains and rivers. You do not have the cultivation of an immortal family to govern a blessed land. You are just relying on rituals and rituals to translate the true form and talismans. What's more, your thoughts
When it is born, it will immediately attract all kinds of illusions, making you mistakenly think that you can travel through the vicissitudes of life."
Zhao Shu also had lingering fears, so he could only reply: "I did not intend to directly take the true shape of the mountains and rivers, they came in by themselves."
"How could you be so unprepared when you opened the altar and practiced the Dharma with concentration and concentration?" Lingxiao asked.
Zhao Shu looked at the four corners of the flags and flags set up at the four corners of the mandala, then raised his hand and stroked his eyebrows, saying: "The defenses are sufficient, but I... I just breathed my own energy with the heaven and the earth, and for a moment I was indistinguishable from each other. Mountains and rivers
The true form is naturally imprinted into the brain, making it impossible to prevent."
"This is the method of Shinto." Lingxiao immediately understood: "But after all, you are not just one person, and your soul is not enough to inherit the true shape of mountains and rivers. The power of creation of heaven and earth can be seen and understood. If you devote yourself to it wholeheartedly, you will dissolve yourself.
, leaving no trace of true spirit behind!”
Zhao Miao slowly walked down the altar and wiped the thin sweat from his forehead: "The officer of praise seeks to have sympathy between humans and gods, so it is naturally a Shinto method."
"Although scientific rituals and rituals are good, they cannot prove longevity." Lingxiao said bluntly: "The energy of your body is inseparable from the creation of heaven and earth. Although the power of magic is extremely profound, it will hinder your ability to ascend to immortality in the future."
Zhao Shu had no choice but to laugh: "Ascension to immortality? This kind of thing is too far away and is not what I want to think about right now. The official of the Tianxia Dynasty did not seek the immortal achievement of immortality, as long as he can live forever."
"I advise you not to go too far on this road." Lingxiao said bluntly: "You are prone to do things like moths to the flames, but you want to delve into such methods that make people live short and easy to die.
, no less than running towards a dead end."
"How come the divine way of upholding Heaven's heart and helping people and benefiting things has a short life and an easy death?" Zhao Shu was puzzled.
"How can you help others and benefit things if you have no relatives or selfless people in your heart? With your hearts and minds at war with each other, I can't see any merit other than torturing yourself," Lingxiao said bluntly.
After hearing this, Zhao Shu turned around and looked at the altar. The clouds in the sky were drifting away. His expression was solemn and thoughtful.
