I am in a predicament

Within the Shenru Cave, the fourth cave, Yueguan Mountain, walked in.The first book you see, put it in the most conspicuous place, walk in and take a look, it is the heart of God and Confucianism.

More than ten years ago, the sage Qiuzi returned from traveling around the world and gave lectures on Chuyang Mountain. There were as many as 3000 people who came, including Taoists and Buddhists.At the end of Qiuzi's lecture, he wrote the word "benevolence" in the sky on the wall of Chuyang Mountain, which contains Qiuzi's understanding of Confucianism, Taoism and martial arts.

Zi Chuan was established a year before "benevolence", combined with his own understanding, created a chapter on the heart of God and Confucianism, taking the meaning of "preserving the way of heaven and cutting off the seven emotions and six desires".

He has practiced for more than ten years, and his spiritual and Confucian mentality has gradually matured. Although the emotions and desires have not been broken, they can no longer control him. He can control sorrow and joy as he pleases, and his behavior and things tend to be more rational, and everything follows the trend.

"Preserve the way of heaven and cut off the seven emotions and six desires. In this regard, the title of master, god and Confucianism is not in vain. Unfortunately, it is not my way. Although I don't know how to practice this method, many of its advantages are worth learning from."

Yue Guanshan watched and thought carefully. Just this article took him a whole day, and most of the time he spent asking and discussing with his master.

Under the Shenru Xinzhang is a book called Shenru Xuanzhang.Yueguan Mountain opened it and looked at it, it was a piano score. After reading it carefully, you will know that it is consistent with the philosophy of the gods and Confucians.

It took another six days for Yueguanshan to read more than 30 martial arts cheats, including the method of training Qi, the method of tempering the body, the method of sword and sword, and the method of body and footwork, but there is no basic introduction to martial arts.

"Master, I have read the martial arts cheats, please explain the basics of martial arts to me."

Yueguanshan didn't dare to practice, he didn't understand a lot of technical terms, so he practiced rashly, fearing to hurt his foundation.

Zi Chuan replied: "People have the three treasures of essence, energy and spirit, and martial arts practice is to practice these three treasures. Essence corresponds to the physical body, which is the method of practicing horizontally; Qi corresponds to the true essence of internal force, which is the method of practicing Qi; spirit corresponds to the primordial spirit, which is to observe thoughts Door."

"Taoism divides the realm of martial arts into four levels, that is, refining essence to transform qi, refining qi to transform gods, refining gods to return emptiness, and refining emptiness to join the Tao. Buddhism is divided into novice monks, monks, arhats, Bodhisattvas, etc. Confucianism relies on the awe-inspiring holy energy that is cultivated. As evidence, there is no uniform standard for dividing realms. However, the most widely circulated in the world are acquired and innate, and innate is subdivided into low-rank innate, middle-rank innate, high-rank innate, super innate, and peak innate. .”

"I am more inclined to the Taoism's method of dividing martial arts realms. Refining essence, refining qi, refining spirit, refining emptiness, and combining Tao, one by one."

"How to practice?"

Zi Chuan went on to say: "At the beginning of martial arts, you need to practice a good physical body, and then you will have a deep foundation. Furthermore, you will practice Qi, accumulating the inner strength of the dantian, and the breath will be long. Afterwards, you will practice the spirit, and you will have the method of contemplation and tempering." .After that, refine the emptiness, refine the essence, qi and spirit, and realize your own way. Finally, the body and the way will merge, and the way will go away.”

Yue Guanshan asked: "What kind of state is Master in now? Is it in harmony?"

"Huh? How did you guess it?"

"Master's Divine Confucian Heart Chapter and Divine Confucian Profound Chapter all have reason in them. I think that when the Divine Confucian Profound Chapter is created, it is the time for Master to join the Dao."

Zi Chuan nodded and said: "That's right, the Tao is divided into entering the Tao, combining the Tao, and transforming the Tao. I have already entered the Tao, and I am currently joining the Tao. This requires a chance, maybe the next moment, or maybe a hundred years."

"Dare to ask Master, can the three of spirit, energy and spirit be cultivated at the same time?"

"Yes, but the three fellow practitioners are too difficult, time-consuming and labor-intensive, and if you are a little careless, you will go crazy. Besides, you have to have a realm, but you also have to protect the way. You have to dabble in swords, fists, palms, etc. It’s too time-consuming. So most people specialize in one thing, specialize in close combat with the physical body, specialize in the true energy of the inner family, specialize in the Taoism of the soul, etc. This is the reason why all methods are not as good as one method.”

Zhou Xuehai walked over quietly, and sat quietly at the side, watching the question and answer between the master and the apprentice.

Yue Guanshan worshiped: "Thank you, Master, for clarifying the confusion, the disciple understands."

Yue Guanshan asked more questions about the cultivation of spirit, qi and spirit, and Zi Chuan answered them one by one, and when he was about to leave without any doubts, he asked: "My spiritual and Confucian heart chapter directly leads to the realm of harmony, don't you practice? "

Yue Guanshan replied: "The master once said the allusions of Qiu Zi's disciples, saying that the Confucian classics need to be constantly innovated in order to achieve the achievements of Qiu Zi. The same is true for martial arts. I learn the method of the master, and the achievement can only be achieved by the teacher forever. under your honor."

Zichuan Fuxu laughed and said: "Haha, yes, yes, those who learn from me live, those who resemble me perish. Only by innovating can we surpass me."

Zhou Xuehai was suddenly stunned, and his mind was full of thousands of thoughts. No wonder recently, no matter whether it is Confucianism or martial arts, there is always a feeling of incompatibility. It is so, so it is.

He studied under Zi Chuan since he was a child, admired him, and never refuted him. Zi Chuan raised many points for him. He closed his eyes, sat cross-legged, and was enlightening.

Zi Chuan shook his feather fan and said, "Yes, yes, they are all good seedlings. Only in this way can the future achievements not be inferior to mine."

He once again lamented Yueguan Mountain's comprehension. He just mentioned it casually that day, but today he can draw inferences. He made a mistake. His middle-level bones are no longer shackles. With such comprehension, how can martial arts be left behind?

Yue Guanshan bid farewell to his master, got up and left, he has been reading continuously until now, he needs to rest for a while.

In the evening, the family of three sat together and ate fish.

Father Yuehan's legs are already healed, and he is walking like flying, and the restaurant business he runs is also booming. With the silver he earned and some gold, with the support of the city lord's mansion, he built an orphanage and adopted more than [-] orphans. , invited women from the small mountain village to take care of her.The women in the small mountain village are simple, so he can use it with confidence.

He will never forget that the help between people has brought their family to the present. The villagers of the small mountain village helped them, Mr. Hua Zhong helped them, and the city lord Qiu Baiyu helped them. He remembered all these in his heart .

Yue Guanxue took two leaves of Tianshan Snow Lotus, and she has completely recovered.His root bone is pretty good, after taking Tianshan Snow Lotus, his root bone is one step closer, if he practices ice-cold attribute kung fu, he might be able to cultivate ice-cold kung fu body.

Yue Guanshan asked concerned: "Little brother, how have you been studying recently?"

Yue Guanxue replied: "Shang Ke, if you can keep up with Senior Brother Lin's progress, you won't lose face."

"Don't take me as the standard in everything, just be yourself, take one step at a time, don't be too ambitious, so that you can go further."

Yue Guanxue nodded in agreement.

After dinner, the three of them lay quietly in the yard, the moon was in the sky, and today's starry sky was extraordinarily bright.

The father and son were gossiping one by one, mainly the father Yuehan was talking, there were a lot of people coming and going in the restaurant, he sat aside, he didn't need him to work, just listened to the people passing by talking about the southeast and northwest.

Which mountain village was attacked by fierce beasts, which city was invaded by aliens, which expert subdued the spirit beast, etc.

The outside is not very safe, the kingdoms are fighting, the city is attacking, the aliens are invading, the evil spirits are rampant and committing crimes, and the world is in endless disputes.Some time ago, Qiu Baiyu, the lord of Shuangye City, led his troops out. It is said that he found a nearby village slaughtered by demons.Therefore, it also aroused the hatred of other demons, and the people in the city were panicked recently.

Yue Guanxue also said an interesting story, "Brother, recently senior brother Lin often assigns me academic tasks and then leaves in a hurry. Once senior brother Zhou came to find out, he followed secretly and found that senior brother Lin was with a senior sister Be alone, and the whole academy will know about it."

"It is said that the master found out later and scolded him that rabbits only eat grass beside the nest, which is not a good thing."

While chatting and laughing, it was late at night, Yue Han and Yue Guanxue had already returned to the house, and Yue Guanshan was lying in the yard alone again, he was lost in thought, muttering in his mouth.

"Visualize, visualize..."

In my mind, a bright star map slowly emerged.
