The Master of Mantra, with his majestic appearance and his face filled with holy light, said leisurely: "The three secrets of Buddhism are body, speech, and mind, with equal emphasis on practice and thinking. The body is equal to the mouth, the mouth is equal to the mind, and the mind is equal to the body. Although the name is divided into three, It’s really the same!”
Ye Cheng frowned slightly. Although he didn't understand it and had only a half-knowledge about it, it still seemed to be separated by a layer of barrier. After all, he understood too little about such obscure things. However, Xu Ziling on the side suddenly realized: "Master As expected, he is an expert in Buddhism. Just by chatting for a few words, he could clearly explain the profound meaning behind the quilts of the five hundred Arhats in the hall!"
The mantra master looked at Ye Cheng, who was a little confused, and said with a smile: "The human body is a treasure raft that can transcend the world, and it contains the secrets of heaven and earth. Lao Na's nine-character mantra mudra communicates with the universe through the three secrets, and through the human body. The state of human unity, knowing one's mind and seeing one's nature, that is, becoming a Buddha, has nothing to do with being a monk or a householder. Regardless of whether the body is in the cassock or not, a person is a human being and will not become anything else!"
These words immediately enlightened the confused Ye Cheng. Only then did he understand what the so-called three secrets were. A smile appeared on his face, and his hands even moved as he pleased, shaking slightly!
From the understanding of the mantra, the physical body is an unexplored treasure house and a vehicle for people to express their original hearts. The way they want to express themselves is nothing more than words, actions, and thoughts. Only when the three are closely combined can the true will be expressed to the highest degree.
The combination of these three is nothing more than the unity of essence, qi, and spirit. Until this moment, it is the close connection between body and spirit. If you want to be more advanced, it is the connection between body and heaven and earth. If you can completely integrate your body into the world of heaven and earth and apply its power to your body, then the power of heaven and earth will be in your every move, which is the so-called unity of heaven and man.
The mantra master nodded and said: "I have traveled all over the world, and it is only today that I met two young donors that I finally realized that they are the destined ones for me!"
Xu Ziling said in astonishment: "Master, how do you know whether I understand it as soon as I say it, but in fact I am no different from other people in the past?"
Zhenyan nodded with a smile and said: "In the past, I told others this. Although the other people heard it clearly, they didn't really understand it, let alone use it for practice. They often gained the body but lost the mouth, and took the meaning but lost the body. , I told you this just now, and I saw that the fingers of both of you were shaking slightly. It must be that the truth came into your ears and you felt it in your heart. Only then did you feel it and directly express your inner feelings!"
Only then did Ye Cheng realize that since last night, his hands had been somewhat out of control, as if he had come to life and wanted to control ownership.
Xu Ziling frowned and said: "Master, these hand seals are extremely complicated. There are hundreds of statues in the Arhat Hall. If each seal method had a mantra to express it, wouldn't it make people dizzy!"
The mantra shook his head and said with a smile: "The little donor is overly worried. You must know that although there are many handprints, they are always inseparable from the root. After hundreds of years of insights, I finally divided these handprints into nine types, but this mantra emphasizes the spirit rather than the form. It is clever. It is the application of the Three Secrets, which is the condensation of one’s essence, energy and spirit, and is naturally boundless in power!”
After a pause, the mantra continued: "This nine-character mantra is for those who are facing the enemy to march forward in formation! Don't underestimate these nine words, they come from the inner volume of the Taoist classic "Baopuzi" written by Ge Hong of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. The original text of the Dengshe chapter reads: "Those who are facing a battle, all move forward in formation. Always keep an eye on them and avoid them at all costs"!
Ye Cheng couldn't help but ask: "Master, you are an eminent monk in Buddhism, why do these nine characters come from Taoist classics?"
Zhenyan stared at him for a long time and said softly: "The use of Zhenyan is random and has no specific form. It is a reflection of itself. As for the origin of the nine characters, you must know that Buddhism and Taoism are the same family!"
Ye Cheng felt a surge of respect in his heart, nodded and said: "The boy has learned a lesson!"
The mantra master suddenly shouted "Lin" and raised his hands above his head, clasping them tightly like flower buds, with his index fingers and thumbs touching each other.
Ye Cheng glared fiercely. In his eyes, the old monk Zhenyan was no longer as powerful as before. He was suddenly like a mountain, integrated with the earth, as if he had taken root here.
Xu Ziling was shocked and said: "Awesome!"
The mantra master said: "This is exactly the fundamental mudra of immobility. Although there are thousands of types of mudra, immobility is one of the nine basic patterns. Therefore, although what I mentioned today is only the nine types of mudra, in fact it is equivalent to all the mudra.
I’ll pass it on to you all and keep an eye on it!”
Quickly moving sideways, Zhenyan formed a series of seals with his hands in front of his chest, and he shouted fiercely: "Bing!"
At this moment, the mantra seemed to have become a real Arhat, with a solemn appearance. Although he did not make any movements, his handprints were already breathtaking. He looked at the two people and said: "This is the Great Vajra Wheel Seal, which can subdue demons and exorcise evil spirits."
Sickness, as for how to conquer the demons and protect the way, it is up to the donor himself!"
At this moment, Ye Cheng realized why the mantra kept saying that he could not find the right person. Seeing how he created endless handprints without holding his hands, in terms of speed, how could ordinary people be better? And the mystery can only be understood.
It's indescribable. If you understand it, you understand it. If you don't understand it, you won't understand it no matter how you explain it.
At this moment, Ye Cheng is fortunate to have the experience last night and has learned a lot from Xu Ziling. He can barely keep up with the seals formed at this speed. The most important thing is that he can feel the subtle words in it.
.
The two of them also quickly moved to Zhenyan's side and followed Zhenyan's movements.
Then, Master Mantra showed the other basic seals one by one, including the outer lion seal, the inner lion seal, the outer seal seal, the inner seal seal, the wisdom fist seal, the sun wheel seal and the treasure bottle seal.
There are hundreds of different variations of each basic handprint. In Yecheng, Xu Ziling and his two men could not take their eyes away and were mesmerized, showing more than a thousand kinds of handprints, all of which were extremely mysterious and wonderful.
Ye Cheng kept replaying every move of Master Mantra in his mind, even a very small movement, and kept it in mind. Although there was no systematic prompt, he understood that he had made a qualitative improvement this time.
Things at this level were not something he should have been able to access, but because of Xu Ziling's relationship, he finally gained huge benefits.
If his previous fighting style was nothing more than making quick wits in a hurry and relying on his powerful skills to fight, then now he is integrating all the things he had pieced together in the past. As long as he finds a suitable opportunity in the future, he will definitely succeed.
Create your own style.
When Ye Cheng opened his eyes again, the world seemed to have a little more color in his eyes. It had never been more vivid and vivid. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, everything was so beautiful.
Turning around and looking around, Master Zhenyan and Xu Ziling had already left without leaving a trace, as if nothing had happened here.
Slowly walking out of the temple, his heart was filled with unprecedented confidence and strength. At this moment, he deeply believed that he would be able to help the Brotherhood overcome this difficulty, because at this moment, he was completely reborn.
Shadow Hoof was still enjoying freely outside the temple. When he saw Ye Cheng coming out, he walked over naturally.
The sun was setting in the west. Ye Cheng rode away at the scheduled time and place, heading towards Xinfan, the northernmost town in Yizhou. The more than a hundred miles of road seemed to be unstoppable under the power of Shadow Hoof's feet.
He arrived within an hour.
Valley of the Wicked is located to the northwest of Xinfan Town. It is a valley rather than a small town. However, this small town is not small in size, with nearly a thousand people. It is a small local force in the system. The leader is
There are five heads in the Valley of the Wicked, and each one of them is extremely powerful. In terms of skill alone, they are all top-notch masters of the advanced level.
There are no less than twenty small forces like this in Yizhou, and they are all extremely important resource points. However, because there are many masters in charge, ordinary small teams dare not move. The most they can do is hunt wild food outside and hunt the surrounding areas.
If the little minions in the valley alert the masters in the valley, those who are lucky may still be able to fight, while those who are unlucky will naturally end up being massacred.
When Ye Cheng touched the small valley, the players of the Brotherhood had already formed a formation and were on standby, so the small valley with only one exit was completely surrounded.
Guishou and others have already set up camp. The wooden village built by the life players is firmly established at the mouth of the valley, with arrow towers standing around it to serve as lookouts and warnings.
"Brother, why are you here? We have been preparing for a while!"
Guishou's face was filled with a smile, and he was not at all nervous or uneasy as before the battle.
Ye Cheng looked around. Everyone present was the backbone of the Brotherhood. The Three Swordsmen of Qingcheng were also here. Kuai Jian and Kuai Dao were standing aside. Ti Tou was dressed in iron armor, standing like a vajra arhat. There were also Iron Hands and several others.
The leader of the fame circle.
Ye Cheng smiled and said: "With all the elite members of our Brotherhood here, this little Valley of the Wicked is no longer a problem!"
Tietou laughed loudly and said: "That's natural. In our area of Bashu, gangs capable of attacking thousands of people have not yet appeared. Even those four families are just fighting on the periphery. Today our brotherhood is going to become famous in one battle.
, let them know how big the gap between us is!"
Kuai Jian said at the side: "Right now, the main camp, barracks, blacksmith shop, tailor shop, pharmacy, and rescue team are all ready. The patrols, secret sentries, and law enforcement teams on the periphery are on alert. The Zhuque Tower and Xuanwu Tower have been built. Qinglong
,The construction of the second floor of Baihu has begun!”
Kuai Dao took over and said: "Things at the general altar have been prepared. In addition to the necessary defense, everyone else has been assembled. The current total number of people in the barracks is 3,600, excluding the guards. All of them have been assembled."
Ready, just give the command and you can attack directly!"
Guishou laughed and said: "Brother, what do you think? The strength of our brotherhood is already extremely strong. I want to win this Valley of the Evils beautifully and cleanly, so that those bastards can see how powerful we are.
I really want to lead people to kill those guys!"
Ye Cheng couldn't help but nodded and said: "The strength has improved by leaps and bounds. I think when we went to Dawangzhai, we could only charge with swords and shields. The facilities there are as complete as they are now. The world at that time was made of flesh and blood.
