Pursuing Immortality

“xiu!”

“xiu… xiu…”

The empty mountains before the night, quiet and fallen, not seeing a silhouette, only the tired birds who stalked at night fanned their wings and made a screaming sound. On a wild path down the mountain, a whistle sounded suddenly.

The whistle was sharp and bright, and it spread far away, and disappeared into the jungle leaves, returning to calm. Gu Yu puts down her finger, helplessly said: “It seems really angry, ignore me.”

“Nothing, I let Xiao Qing go.” Xiaozhai said with a smile.

“Hey? Are you sure you are not fighting?” He hurts.

“The fight is also a mode of relaxation, you don’t understand.”

When the girl said, she gently rubbed her arm, and the green snake fell to the ground like water, and looked at the master inexplicably.

“If you are broken at home, let me take a day off, I will pick you up tomorrow.”

“Hey!”

When the green snake heard it, Le Deton became a dog and eagerly around the owner. After the other party agreed, only the body twisted and swayed to the forest.

Gu Yu has always felt amazing and can’t help but ask: “How can it be understood?”

“It doesn’t understand, but I can understand what I mean. My python is extremely demanding on the snake’s spirituality. Otherwise, it is just a plaything, not much use.”

Xiaozhai went on and walked and said: “My Master has a white snake and has been with her for 30 years. When she went, the snake still had lifespan, but oneself got into the fire and finally died.”

“It is loyal and respectable.”

Gu Yu sighed and picked up another question and asked, “Yes, where is the village where you live?”

“Under Changbai Mountain, Songjiang River.”

“Changbai Mountain?”

He startedled, thought it was near Shengtian, did not expect to be neighboring provinces, and asked: “You Master received a discipline?”

“Ah.”

The girl took a piece of leaves and took it in her hand. She said: “She is not old, she always lives alone, only the white snake is accompanying. I stayed with her for seven years, then returned to Shengtian, less every year. There was a meeting. I was more busy in high school, and I only saw it once before I died. It felt very ugly.”

“Yeah, no wife and children to accompany, after all, lonely.”

“Wife and wife?”

Xiaozhai glanced back and said with a smile: “When did I say she was a man?”

“Uh……”

Got it! The goods are going to die, and the earnest’s mouth is closed, only the head is on the road.

It is said that the two of them came out of the thorny forest and turned to the middle of the mountain. They have already reached the safe boundary. Now this wild path is used by Gu Yu to pick up the goods and go to the mountain. It is very familiar.

So they are not in a hurry, wobbing walking, the sky is just a little dark, just down the mountain.

The surroundings are still so deserted, there is no one, only the old coward’s small courtyard, the solitary stamp is opposite. The two men carried bags, with a path of scratches on their arms and legs, and a dirt road under their feet.

This place is quieter than in the mountains, and the hustle and bustle of the city is completely covered up, and there is no trace of excitement.

Walking and walking, I only feel the darker the sky. Gu Yu looked up and saw that the dome was like ink, and it was covered with a rim. Only a round of bright moon was hanging in the night sky.

He suddenly asked: “Do you say that there are immortals above?”

“There are only stones and stone pits on it.” Xiaozhai also raised his head.

“So what are we doing now?”

He is somewhat uncertain. This history has evolved over the millennium. Now that science is so developed, just one moon landing plan will kill all the big myths.

“we?”

Xiaozhai has the slightest hesitation, said with a smile: “Of course, creating the future!”

…………

After they went down the mountain, they found a simple clinic. Fortunately, the thorns are not poisonous, and the potion is ok.

Gu Yu didn’t make a reservation before, because I didn’t know when it would end, it would only run to the hotel and I needed a standard room. The two are not so hungry and go straight upstairs.

He waited for a while in the corridor, and Xiaozhai advanced to change clothes.

White t-shirt, loose slacks, stepping on two sandals. She is so tall, her legs are long and straight, and her skin is good, but she never shows her legs, she doesn’t wear stockings, and she doesn’t have tight leggings.

Gu Yu met several times and the bottoms were not as short as the knees.

At this time, the two are sitting on the sofa, this day is a shock, returning to the world, the mood is very relaxed. Just chatting a few words, Xiaozhai took the backpack and pulled out the information. He said, “Let’s see it first, then say it.”

“what is this?”

He took a glimpse and first noticed the red pen mark and asked: “Is this time?”

“Well, I divided the four stages by time.”

“Oh……”

He is nodded, and he is holding a light reading under the lamp.

The first manuscript, in terms of age, should be the pre-Qin period of more than 2,200 years ago. The first sentence of the opening of the manuscript made him jump:

“When I heard that there were True Man in the ancient times, I would like to raise the world, grasp the yin and yang, call the qi, and keep the gods alone. If the muscles are one, then I can live the world, no end, this way…”

Gu Yu couldn’t help but look up and looked at Xiaozhai. The girl held a white porcelain cup of oneself and sipped her water and turned a blind eye.

He wants to ask, and he will hold back and continue down.

……

What Xiaozhai combed is the development of the entire Daoist Magic system.

We are now mentioning that Quanzhen, Zhengyi two factions, Quanzhen repair Neidan (Inner Core), is repairing Talisman, there seems to be no other way. Actually, before Tang, there were very few records about Neidan (Inner Core).

Xiaozhai divided the first stage with the pre-Qin as the line, called the ancient period. It contains two parts, before the Spring and Autumn Period and after the Spring and Autumn Period.

There is no immortal dao before the Spring and Autumn Period, only humane. Heavenly Heavenly Dao, authentic, pedestrians. Heaven and earth are born of people, and Great Dao is used by people.

There are four kinds of humanity, truth, solitude, god, and holy.

True Man is detached from the three realms, standing forever, sitting on the universe life and death, later known as Heavenly Immortal.

In the world, the eternal life limit, Eternal Life, and later known as Earthly Immortal.

Deity is so wonderful that although it is not necessarily free from death, it is worth a thousand years, and later generations are called Immortal.

The sage carries the essence, the whole life, and the life, and the later generation is called Human Immortal.

There is another special kind of Xiu Yuan Shen who does not die. It can be white and visible, and it is a body. There is Earthly Immortal realm. There is no Earthly Immortal body. Later generations are called Ghost Immortal.

After the Spring and Autumn Period, immortal dao rose, humanity declined, partially lost, partially hidden into the folk, and dispersed into the hands of Immortal Sect. The two are mixed, resulting in a series of Daoist Magic, such as the sword immortal method, the Yinxian method, the Refining Qi method and so on.

During this period, cultivation is still based on physical body Eternal Life.

There is very little information in this part. Xiaozhai is only a circumstantial citation. Most of the guesses are made, but she emphasizes one point: the so-called Great Dao to Jane, the cultivation method of the ancient cultivator is extremely simple, and there are absolutely no messy things.

The second stage was more than 1,700 years ago, called the period of ancient immortal.

Daoist Magic has further declined, and the Valley and Consuming Qi have become the main methods of cultivation. There are Daoist Scripture records: “The herbivores are good and stupid, the carnivores are more powerful and sorrowful, and the people who eat the grain are not happy, and the people of Consuming Qi are not dead.”

Another classic description: “The person can contain jujube nucleus, can not eat for up to five years and ten years. Can also be suffocating, unshakable, like a dead person, can be a hundred days.”

Simply put, just don’t eat, feed on the heavenly Spiritual Qi.

Although it is weaker and more cumbersome than the ancient times, it is still orthodox. The cultivator can be hundreds of lifespans, young and young. Great Expert, the corporeal body is sanctified, flying up in the daytime, and even rising to the chicken.

And at the same time, this stage, the Waidan (External Core) Technique began to take off.

Waidan (External Core), Alchemy. There are three volumes of “Divine Pill Classics”, which emphasizes that only by taking Jin Dan can you be with the heavens, and Eternal Life is not old.

This kind of argument is completely contrary to the humane system.

But even more strange is that by the end of the Han Dynasty, a guy named Wei Boyang wrote this “Zhou Yi Participation”, the first system explained Neidan (Inner Core), Waidan (External Core) theory.

Not only that, but he also denounced all the Daoist Magic outside of Neidan (Inner Core) as a heresy, calling it “reversing the cardinal”, which is not a side door to Eternal Life.

(Hurry up, happy birthday to me!)
