Celestial Immortal

Chapter 22: The Earth, Mountains and Rivers
Chu Chen already had the cultivation method of the spell [Blowing Hair to Become a Tiger], but he hadn't mastered it yet.

First of all, it is very difficult to draw [Huafu], and it is very difficult for him to draw talismans at the level of beginners.

Secondly, practicing the spell [Blowing hair into a tiger] requires a series of rituals and altar sacrifices. At his level, it takes at least a month of sacrifices.

But right now, after the [Blowing Hair to Become a Tiger] spell appeared in the heart temple, he could easily master this spell and learn the essence of the [Tiger Transformation Talisman] calligraphy talisman.

The most important thing is that using the Heart Temple to sacrifice tiger hair can save a lot of effort, and there is no need to sacrifice for 42 days.

This made Chu Chen feel very comfortable.

A talisman spell, mastered in all aspects from talisman drawing, sacrifice refining, incantation, stepping, etc., is truly mastered.

When performing it, you no longer have to worry about your hands and feet. You are always worried about wasting the magic talisman, digging and searching, and always want to save it until the critical moment.

It's like the spell of [Growing clouds from the soles of the feet].

This is a good spell, but it is a pity that Chu Chen has not fully mastered it at present, and can only rely on the help of his master, so it is not so enjoyable to use.

"There is always something to gain from handling the case this time."

Lying in the spacious and bright Prison of Ghosts and Gods, Chu Chen looked quite calm, and he even recited Taoist scriptures with great interest.

The Taoist scripture is called "Taishang Laojun Says Chang Qing Jing Jing".

One volume of scriptures on the land, mountains and rivers, the title is very clear.

Mountain flowers and weeds are all talking about it, and they are moving and listening.

It is the "Qing Jing Sutra".

This sutra is a classic of Taoism, containing the most important principles of Taoism, and it is one of the must-learn Taoism scriptures for Taoist priests.

The brother guarding the cell is extremely polite, he will satisfy all his demands, and will send you in whatever you want. Except for the restriction of personal freedom, the three of them are quite at ease.

"The old gentleman said: The great way has no form, but it gives birth to the heaven and the earth; the great way has no emotion, it moves the sun and the moon; the great way has no name, but it nourishes all things; I don't know its name, but the strong name is called the way. The husband and the way: there is clearness and turbidity, there is movement and stillness; heaven The earth is clear and the earth is turbid, the sky is moving and the earth is still. Men are pure and women are turbid, men move and women are quiet. All things come into being by descending from the root to the end.”

Huang Fugui and Zhang Xiucai listened to Chu Chen recite the "Qing Jing Jing".

For the first time, the two were a little restless.

But when they heard it for the second time and the third time, the mood of the two gradually calmed down.

The sound of chanting the Taoist scriptures seems to have a magical power in the dark. The rhyme of the Tao is lingering in the ears.

"Brother Chu is worthy of being a master disciple of the Taoist sect. This state of mind and cultivation level are far inferior to me."

Zhang Xiucai let out a breath of foul air slowly, and gestured to Chu Chen.

These words are definitely words from the heart.

In such a big trouble, he can still recite the "Qing Jing Sutra" without distraction, which perfectly fits the true meaning of "Qing Jing Wuwei".

Huang Fugui also touched his head and said:
"Brother Chu, it's really good to hear you chanting, and the restlessness in my heart is gone, but are you really not worried?"

Chu Chen put down the Taoist scriptures first, took a sip of tea, and said calmly:
"There is nothing to worry about. If there is a grievance and a debt, the county town god will find out the truth if Deng Tiejian's dead soul is found. If Deng Tiejian's dead soul enters the Nether Central Underworld, we will not be able to wash away the crime of manslaughtering officials. No matter where the result goes, We can't take the lead, so why bother thinking about it."

"Oh, it's true, it's useless to think about it."

Zhang Xiucai and Huang Fugui nodded, secretly praying for good luck.

After the death of human beings, most of the dead souls are hooked into the nether central underworld, and then reincarnated, and will not stay in the world for a long time.

The dead souls left behind in the world are called "ghosts", and they are governed by the lands of town gods and mountain gods.

Generally speaking, practitioners, people with a lot of resentment and evil spirits in front of them tend to turn into wandering spirits, floating in the world.

Deng Tiejian restrained the evil spirit of dragon and tiger, and had martial arts cultivation in his body. After his death, the soul of the dead has a very high probability of remaining in the world and turning into a ghost.

As long as the County Town God's Mansion finds the dead soul of Deng Tiejian and asks about it, the matter will come to light.

The three stayed in the cell waiting for the news, and what they were waiting for was the news of Deng Tiejian's dead soul.

After some conversation, the three fell into silence.

Chu Chen smiled, and picked up the Taoist scriptures on the table.

After worshiping Taoism, he fell in love with reciting Taoist scriptures.

Every time he recites it, his mind is calm, his troubles disappear, and his whole person wanders in a wonderful state, often with insights and clear thoughts.

"The avenue is invisible, but the birth world"

"The avenue is ruthless, running the sun and the moon"

"The avenue is nameless, and everything grows forever"

In the prison cell, Chu Chen's chanting was neither urgent nor slow, neither high nor low, like clear spring water, pleasant and ethereal, with lingering lingering sounds.

Zhang Xiucai and Huang Fugui, who were restless, were immersed in it and gradually calmed down.

Brother Fugui fell into a sound sleep steadily, really quiet and peaceful, all troubles disappeared.

Even the cell guards guarding the cells were immersed in the Taoism, and their tempers were even better than before.

Until the arrival of a group of people broke the cleanliness of the cell.

"My little one pays homage to all the masters."

The two cell guards saluted respectfully and fearfully.

"Don't be too polite!"

Impressively, they are County Magistrate Xu, Daoist Xu Ping, Zen Master Liao Kong, and Huang Mei.

"True and constant way, the enlightened one will be content"

"Those who have attained enlightenment will always be at peace"

The four of them are all people of advanced cultivation, and they heard the sound of chanting sutras as early as outside the cell.

"Brother Xu, your apprentice is really good-natured. After getting into such a big trouble, you can still recite sutras without distraction and enter into tranquility. This kind of kung fu, not to mention a young man who has just entered the Tao, even at our age, can It is very rare to achieve this step.”

County magistrate Xu was quite moved and praised again and again.

Huang Mei also had a good impression of Chu Chen, and he was very responsible and courageous: "The young man is really good, Xu Duguan has taken in a good apprentice."

Daoist Xu Ping listened to County Magistrate Xu, Huang Mei and others praising his apprentice, although his expression didn't change much, he was quite happy in his heart.

Firstly, he gained face in front of his colleagues, and secondly, he was very pleased by his apprentice's performance.

Just like what Xu County Magistrate and Deputy Huang Mei said, when encountering the big trouble of "manslaughtering court officials", he can still calm down and recite the "Qingjing Sutra" and enter into tranquility. is extremely valuable.

Sometimes, it is more important than root and bone qualifications, and it is not an exaggeration to call it "wisdom root".

Zen Master Liaokong turned the beads in his hand:

"Amitabha Buddha~ The poor monk felt a little quiet and inaction from the sound of chanting sutras, the artistic conception of eternal silence and true tranquility. It is indeed a good seedling, and it is destined to be with my Buddha"

"Cough cough~"

Daoist Xu Ping coughed again and again.

Good guy, everything has a predestined relationship with Buddha, is it easy for me to find an apprentice?
Not to mention such a savvy apprentice.

"Everyone, let's go in first."

Daoist Xu Ping hastily changed the subject and interrupted Zen Master Kong's words.

County Magistrate Xu and Huang Mei laughed:
"Go in, the boys are probably in a hurry, and they should be cleared sooner."
