$690, Sword completed (2/2)
Chilong Zhenren paused and saw the light of wisdom flashing in Su Wu's eyes. He understood everything he said, and then he continued: "Taoists master the charm of the Tao and practice the fetal positioning skill, and then they will follow the mutual attraction and repulsion relationship between the charm of the Tao. , the principle of birth and restraint, attracting those other temples and avenues that are consistent with the charm of the first avenue that one has mastered, and rejecting other charms that are exclusive and incompatible with one's own first avenue of charm...
This is how you become a perfect person.
It is to cultivate ‘self’ to ‘nothingness’.
And the beings and theogony, in turn, shape the ‘I’.
From this point of view, the charm of the great road and the charm of the interaction between heaven and man are two completely different things with completely opposite properties.
The former represents ‘selflessness’,
The latter represents the ‘transcendent self’. "
The master has indeed captured the great truth of the charm of the great avenue. Although his understanding of the charm of the harmony between heaven and man is not profound, his understanding of the charm of the great avenue made Su Wu suddenly enlightened, and all kinds of inspirations poured into his mind at once. .
"All living beings shape the charm,
Shen Yun has already reached the realm of human beings.
And the perfect person will turn himself into nothingness.
I have cultivated myself into the thoughts of 'sentient beings' - every thought about every god in the thoughts of sentient beings, every legend passed down from ancient times, is it not actually every 'I' of the Supreme Being? !
Looking at it this way, does this look like the formation of the ghost Buddha in Daming Temple? "Su Wu frowned and couldn't help but speak for a while.
"Daming Temple?
Ghost Buddha? "
Master Chilong looked at Su Wu with confusion in his eyes: "Where is the Daming Temple? What are the ghosts and Buddhas? Is there something strange coming out of the monk's temple?"
Master actually knows nothing about Daming Temple, ghosts and Buddhas!
According to what Jianzhen said, the ghosts and Buddhas in Daming Temple spread far and wide, gathering the people of a large city and turning them into a "stone of living beings". Such a shocking incident will never be known to future generations no matter what. ——Unless someone used some means to completely conceal the matter after it happened!
Just like in the real world, people only have a preliminary understanding of Li Wei.
In a certain era in the real world,
Someone must have concealed the existence of Li Wei, and at the same time brought most of the Li Wei in the world into silence, until those terrifying Li Wei in the world gradually recovered!
"I once heard a rumor, which is quite similar to the 'selfless practice' of the Perfect One." Su Wu carefully recalled Jian Zhen's various talks about the birth of the 'ghost Buddha', and his mind became much calmer.
There is a big difference between the birth of ghosts and Buddhas and the cultivation of selflessness by perfect people.
Its birth first involves planting a certain idea in the minds of all sentient beings about the countless evil spirits in the Daming Temple - the first step requires the participation of many evil spirits.
From this point on, it is completely different from the practice of a perfect person.
It's just that the core of achievement for both of them is to make use of the willpower and thoughts of all living beings.
Facing the inquiring gaze of Master Chilong, Su Wu briefly explained the matter of ghosts and Buddhas in Daming Temple, deleting many of the details.
Master Chilong pondered for a moment and then said something: "Taoists achieve the 'perfect human state' through the collective wishes of sentient beings.
As for the ghost Buddha, the thought of "becoming a Buddha" was planted in people's hearts through serious tricks. After all living beings transformed into ghosts, the ghost Buddha then appeared in the world.
The two seem to have taken the same path, but in fact they are fundamentally different paths.
The former is the right path;
The latter is the right path that has been distorted - the right path that has been distorted is naturally an evil path. "
"good.
I initially thought that the two took the same path.
After thinking about it carefully, I realized the difference between the two. "Su Wu nodded, "I have benefited a lot from listening to Master's views on the charm of the great road. However, I still cannot say whether the Perfect Man and the 'transcendent self' are really two completely opposite paths.
After all, Master fully remembers all the experiences in the realm of communion between heaven and man,
It is also very likely that the "Charm of the Great Dao" contributed to it.
If the charm of the great avenue is completely opposite to the charm of the interaction between heaven and man, Master, as a Taoist who has obtained the charm of the great avenue, may not even be able to enter the realm of interaction between heaven and man. "
"Perhaps so." Master Chilong nodded, with a smile on his face, "I have gained a lot now.
Not only has he achieved the "Sitting in the Fetus", but his spiritual practice will not stop at the present moment.
Now I have seen from you the other way of "sympathy between heaven and man".
However, if you want to step into the realm of 'sympathy between heaven and man', is it possible that you can only forge weapons and use ghost and god forging methods to communicate with your own weird and mysterious charm?
Is there no other way? "
The way to enter the realm of communion between heaven and man is actually not only to commune with one's own tolerance and eccentricity, but also to commune with one's own "ink painting". In the Tang Dynasty, there might have been various ways to commune with nature and man. The Dharma door of the realm.
There is no chance to see Su Wu this afternoon.
The only method he can use is the sympathetic rhyme.
"There is only one method at the moment." Su Wu said to Master Chilong, "Master might as well try more, maybe he can find a second or even more methods."
Master Chilong nodded: "It seems that this is all we can do for the time being.
Let's go!
A certain weapon is only half-cast,
Let’s get down to business first! "
"Okay." Su Wu responded.
The two masters and apprentices left the corner of the thatched hut and in the blink of an eye they were gathered at the furnace.
The coals in the furnace were still burning red.
During the conversation between the two, Xianzhi had filled the furnace with fuel charcoal several times, thus ensuring that the temperatures of the several furnaces and forging furnaces did not decrease at all.
Just as he was taking out piles of charcoal ash from the bottom of the furnace, he saw the master and the master approaching and hurriedly stood up to salute them.
"Thank you for your hard work. You are in your own home, so you don't need to be polite!"
The Chilong Master laughed and avoided the etiquette of showing his straightness. He approached the side of the furnace and saw at a glance the sword embryo that had cooled on the iron felt and changed from red to dark black.
The marks left by the hammer on the sword embryo are layered in layers and neatly arranged on the sword body, forming a pattern with inexplicable beauty.
The bearded Taoist picked up the sword embryo with iron tongs and sent it to Su Wu for inspection: "Look, this is the sword embryo that we worked together to forge in a state of communion between heaven and man. How is the quality?"
Su Wu reached out and took the sword embryo.
Bounce the sword slightly and listen to the subtle sound the sword embryo makes.
Then observe the shape of the sword and test the center of gravity of the sword embryo.
After checking everything in this way, he put down the sword embryo and smiled at the nervous Chilong Zhenren next to him: "It seems that Master can get what he wanted this time. The quality of the sword embryo forged this time is quite high.
According to my judgment, it is now a 'semi-supreme' level embryo.
If the subsequent casting process can maintain a high level of performance,
The finished product must be a supreme sword! "
"That's good, that's good!" Master Chilong was overjoyed when he heard this.
He didn't know the difference between the so-called high-grade, low-grade, and supreme, but at least he heard Su Wu say that the long sword carried by his eldest disciple was a supreme sword, and now he was about to get a supreme sword. Sword!
The sword still has the charm of the Patriarch’s Way flowing through it!
"But..." Su Wu suddenly changed the topic at this time——
Chilong Zhenren stared at him: "But what?"
Su Wu said sternly: "Since Master wants to fully grasp the charm of the Grandmaster's Avenue and use the charm of the Grandmaster's Avenue for his own use, then every step of the sword-making process that follows needs to be completed by the Master alone.
The master must always use his own nature, his own body of talismans and his own body to capture the charm of the great avenue, and interact with the charm of the great avenue of the ancestor in the sword.
Let all aspects of oneself be closely connected with the charm of the great path of the ancestor.
Only in this way can the sword that is finally forged be completely integrated with its own elements, achieve the charm of the great path of the ancestor, and be fully used by the master. If we are too involved in the process, it will create a gap between the master and the final sword. A gap occurs. "
He spoke seriously, and Chilong listened carefully.
After finishing talking,
Chilong looked at the embryonic sword in his hand and nodded: "You and I have also been forging iron for a few days, and are already familiar with many forging techniques.
Next, it would be okay for someone to complete the sword-making independently.
I'll leave all the work of adding fuel to the fire to you.
It is also called to rest and rest. "
Hearing this, Xianzhi quickly shook his head: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. I'm not tired. Just let me help the master. Master, just rest next to me for a while..."
"Just let me assist your master.
He forges the sword by himself, so if anything goes wrong, I can make it up for him.
Xianzhi, go back to the temple and rest. "Su Wu also knew that this time was of great importance to Master Chilong and that there could be no mistakes, so he warmly ordered Xianzhi to go back to rest while he stayed in front of the furnace to adjust the temperature.
Even if Xianzhi still wants to stay here, even if it means serving the master and the master,
But as soon as the master said this, she had no choice but to nod obediently, said 'yes', and then left the thatched hut and walked towards the ruined temple not far away with the light of fire.
In the thatched hut behind him, the noises between the master and the master, the jingle of weapons being forged, and the master's shouts from time to time could gradually be heard...
Xianzhi returned to the ruined temple and slept for less than an hour.
He was shaken awake by the eldest sister beside him - Xianzhen.
She sat up from the bed and looked at her eldest sister's eyes that were shining in the dark in bewilderment: "Master's sword is forged!
A red light burst out from the other side of the thatched shed, so spectacular! "
If Xian Zhen's words were spoken to other disciples, they would probably be confused and confused.
But before Xianzhen went to bed, he had been thinking about his master and his master's sword-making. He had just had a dream, and now he was shaken awake by Xianzhen. When he heard her words, the sleepiness in his eyes suddenly disappeared. Fading: "Really?!"
As she spoke, she reached out and pinched her thigh.
It hurts.
"What I just saw cannot be faked!" Xianzhen nodded vigorously.
"Then I'll go take a look!"
Xianzhi got up from the bed, and Xianzhen hurried out of the ruined temple.
Uncle Ding Ling, who was keeping vigil at night, stood beside the bonfire, tiptoeing and looking in the direction of the thatched hut.
Several disciples who were sleeping lightly also gathered around Uncle Ding Ling and looked in that direction.
Xianzhi followed their gaze and turned his head.
Then he saw a red light shining angrily into the sky.
The red light is like a pillar,
Pieces of golden scales coiled around the sky pillar.
