Chapter 74: All Alchemy Masters in the World Are One Family
Pu Ji smiled kindly and said: "Has your alchemy skills improved to the level where you can assist in refining the Great Return Pill? You are really talented. I originally thought I needed to invite a retired master to come out. Now that you are here,
Great things can be expected.”
The monks carried the herbs up the mountain, and only then did the four leaders know how much "a little" Lin Su was talking about. Three of the alchemy room's reserves were piled up, and there were still some left, so they had no choice but to clear out an empty room.
Lin Su donated so many herbs, Shaolin abbot Pu Zhun personally received it, and the four chief ministers listened, "It's so good, it's so good. Although Ming Zheng has returned to secular life, he still remembers Shaolin. This is really a merit of Shaolin."
"If it hadn't been for Uncle Pu Zhun's gift of scriptures, Ming Zheng would have been a useless person. How would he have a future?" Lin Su said.
Pu Zhun asked: "Of course the scriptures are good, but your character is particularly important. Mingzheng, to what extent have you cultivated the scriptures?"
Lin Su said: "To achieve perfection."
The five monks were all shocked and looked at each other. Pu Zhun said: "Is it perfect? Can you find out the mystery of this sutra?"
Lin Su shook his head and said: "We haven't. Although the sutra is extraordinary and has the effect of reincarnation and intelligence of the six senses, it did not notice any other unusual features. Perhaps Mingzheng's understanding is not good and he misunderstood the mystery of it."
"Senior Brother Pu Zhun..." The four leaders spoke out in unison.
"As expected, alas..." Pu Zhun sighed: "Lao Na has been practicing the Yi Jin Jing for decades and has reached a perfect understanding. The conclusions he reached are the same as those of Ming Zheng. Except for Bodhidharma and the Sixth Patriarch Huineng,
, are all like this.”
He specifically glanced at Mingzheng and said: "It is said that Patriarch Bodhidharma studied the Yi Jin Sutra and developed the seventy-two secrets of Shaolin. He shattered the void and sat in meditation to become a Buddha. The Sixth Patriarch Hui Neng practiced hard for decades and studied the Yi Jin Sutra for many years.
, comprehending the supreme secret art, the Palm of the Tathagata. It is a pity that dozens of generations have not been able to cultivate the essence, and most of the seventy-two secret arts have withered away, so we have to make up for it with basic skills and martial arts."
Shaolin has the reputation of being the leader of the righteous path, but it has declined a lot in the past three hundred years. First, alien monks stole the scriptures and lost twenty-one secrets. Then Qi Renkuang led nine demonic sects to besiege Shaolin, and thousands of scriptures were destroyed.
Once, more than thirty unique skills were lost. Fortunately, an old monk in seclusion taught his disciples twelve unique skills, and finally some were saved.
Later, the Buddha and Demon Sect caused chaos and overthrew the Prajna Monastery, which was originally established to study the Yi Jin Jing. Since then, only the Abbot of Shaolin has been studying the Yi Jin Jing. Then a year ago, the Huangquan Demon Sect brought trouble to Shaolin, and Shaolin was in chaos.
"In the past hundred years, the person who is most likely to understand the Yi Jin Jing is Universal, who is dubbed the Buddha and Demon. It is a pity that he became a demon because of the Yi Jin Jing."
…
During the day, Lin Su met his brothers at Danwanyuan except Ming Feng, who had traveled to eight counties in Liangzhou. Ming Fang was still studying alchemy regardless of the cold winter months, and was jointly guided by Pu Ji and Ming Feng. Three months ago
After refining a pot of grass elixir with a purity of 84%, the master state is just around the corner. Mingshan and others entered Danwanyuan on their own and abandoned their lazy habits. Especially Mingshan, the change was obvious, from a lazy pig to the number one kid in Danwanyuan.
expert.
At night, he met the mysterious old monk, "Old Master."
The old monk put down the burden of carrying water and did not scoop water for him as usual. He watched quietly without moving. After a long while, he slowly said: "The ray of Dharma you have cultivated through the Yi Jin Jing makes people use arrogance.
The means are torn to pieces.”
Lin Su was startled, "Isn't it a Dharma made from Arhat Fist?"
The dharma image of Crouching Tiger Arhat appears every time when he performs Arhat Fist, so it is natural to think that the dharma aspect of Arhat Fist will be guided by him after practicing it to perfection.
"Arhat Boxing is just an introduction. What really works is the Yi Jin Jing. Otherwise, even if you practice this basic boxing to perfection, you may not be able to guide the Dharma." The old monk sighed: "The shadow of the Dharma is not the real Dharma after all.
If you encounter someone with a disparity in strength, you can easily tear them apart."
Lin Su heard this and humbly asked for advice: "Master, is there any way to repair it?"
The old monk shook his head, "It's not that there are no people who can manifest the Dharma in advance. It's just that they are all protected by the sect and are ordered not to display the Dharma's shadow in front of outsiders. They are all protected so tightly that they can't hit it with eggs like you.
The stone would break the egg."
"Which one is your Dharma image?"
Lin Su said: "Arhat crouching on the tiger."
The old monk smiled and said: "The appearance comes from the heart. The tiger is the overlord of the forest. The white tiger respects the western stars and controls gold, which means killing. Subduing the tiger means stopping killing. Subduing the tiger with one person's strength has great ambitions. The method of subduing the tiger Arhat
If it is broken, why not make another one? It would be unwise to stick to one pond and ignore the vast ocean."
Lin Su lost his mind. When he came back to his senses, the old monk had disappeared. At that moment, he felt like a wake-up call and woke up from a dream. He was trapped in the reality of the broken dharma of the Crouching Tiger Arhat, and he couldn't extricate himself. However, the Crouching Tiger Arhat was just a god in the sky.
Buddha is a drop in the ocean, Arhat, Vajra, Bodhisattva, Buddha, why bother to stop in this matter that is a foregone conclusion?
In just a few days, Lin Su memorized Shaolin's alchemy books by heart. The various alchemy techniques not only enriched his foundation of Shaolin alchemy, but also made this skill, which was born out of basic alchemy and elementary alchemy, even more profound.
In his spare time, he guided Ming Fang in refining elixirs, and sometimes he also refined them himself. He refined three furnaces of grass and wood elixirs, all of which were ninety percent complete. He was the second elixir after Xiaohuan Dan that could be refined to more than ninety percent, and he was respected as a master.
Pu Ji was speechless at the side, "Mingzheng's alchemy has returned to its original nature, and has the style of a great master. Given time, it will be just around the corner to surpass him as a master."
"Master is too praised. How dare Ming Zheng compare with you." Lin Su waved his hand.
But Puji said, "Monks don't tell lies, they just say what they say."
"Thank you, Master, for your appreciation."
The more Pu Ji looked at it, the more pleasing it became to his eyes. Fortunately, he had been accepted into his sect in the first place, otherwise the pearl would have been covered in dust. He carefully inspected the warm alchemy and said, "Your alchemy technique is very exquisite, but it doesn't seem to be the Shaolin one."
"
Lin Su nodded and said: "This is the fragment of the Alchemy Scripture that was given to me by a benefactor who received a favor when my disciple was exploring the ruins of Heyi Temple in Jinzhu Que Mountain. After receiving it, my disciple compiled the most widely circulated Alchemy Scripture in the world.
The Alchemy Book has been combined into a new "Alchemy Book". If there are any unreasonable things in it, please correct me, Master."
When Puji was presented with a newly copied alchemy book, Puji was stunned. Most people in the world treasured their skills, martial arts, elixir recipes, and secret techniques all very carefully, treating them as secrets not to be passed on.
His original intention was to inquire about the method of refining the alchemy, and he had no intention of coveting it. Unexpectedly, Lin Su actually gave the Alchemy Sutra to him.
"Master, please take a look. The Alchemy Sutra records a Taoist alchemy technique called pulling off silk and peeling off cocoons. The technique is gentle and is a wonderful technique." Lin Su opened the Alchemy Sutra and pointed out the record of pulling off silk and peeling off cocoons.
Puji said with satisfaction: "Your idea of using Taoist techniques to refine Buddhist elixirs is worth promoting. This technique is indeed more suitable for refining herbal elixirs than a flash in the pan. In this way, you have added a brand new alchemy method to Danwanyuan.
Technique."
