READ WEBNOVEL Chapter 5 On Taoism
Standing against the window, Baiyun Tower looked at the vast sea of clouds, and couldn't help but wonder whether the turbid clouds floating in the lower layer of the sea of consciousness were the same as this sea of clouds, and there was another world beneath it.
In the middle of the night, Baiyun Tower entered the sea of consciousness, and the divine consciousness was emitting a faint green light. He was slightly concentrated, and used his spiritual thoughts to observe the turbid clouds churning below the sea of consciousness.
There is also a faint blue light flashing among the turbid clouds. It seems that there are also blue fluorescent spots in the turbid clouds.
After a few days of devouring, Baiyunlou roughly guessed that the roots of these blue fluorescent spots should be a broken piece of unowned spiritual consciousness.
The original owners of these fragments of consciousness should be extremely powerful. After a shattered strand of consciousness scattered into thousands of light spots in one's own sea of consciousness, each tiny light spot can obviously strengthen one's own consciousness, which can be seen.
Moreover, according to ancient books, only powerful cultivators can enter the sea of consciousness, and the sea of consciousness they see is chaotic. It is absolutely extraordinary that the sea of consciousness is as clear as your own.
Watching the dark and turbid clouds reverberating under the sea of consciousness for a while, Baiyunlou controlled the consciousness to sink slowly, and will sink into the turbid clouds, a burst of familiar breath enveloped it.
Baiyunlou guarded the Lingtai tightly, tested slightly, but heaved a sigh of relief, it turned out that the turbulent cloud was the sea of his memory.
These wisps of memory rolled and drifted, lingering and entangled, and merged into this cloud of memory. After several explorations, Baiyun Tower roughly figured out the depth of this cloud of cloud.
This sea of memory is divided into several layers. The shallowest layer is filled with mixed memories of daily life, some are clear, some are fuzzy, and the consciousness can move freely in the shallow memory sea without any hindrance.
Further down is the sea of memory in the middle layer, but it is calm and without waves. The memories here are neat and orderly, and most of them are learned on weekdays.
Concentrate on it for a while, and come to a ray of memory, relax your mind a little, and blend into this memory, which is exactly the scene of studying the medical scriptures in the past two days.
Entering this piece of memory, except for the medical classics that are clearly visible, everything around is blurred. Baiyun Tower looked at this piece of memory once in a while, and when he exited with concentration, he found that this piece of memory was somewhat clear.
After a little exploration, after Baiyunlou understood the method of deepening memory, he sank into the depths of the sea of memory.
If the shallow memory sea is like clouds and mist, and the middle layer is like water, the deep memory sea is like river mud, and it is difficult for the mind to walk.
The Baiyun Building has only a small taste, and dare not try this kind of deep memory lightly, lest you become addicted to it and cannot extricate yourself.
After many trials, Baiyunlou's spiritual consciousness was also a little tired, so he swallowed several blue fluorescent spots in the shallow memory sea.
This engulfment found that there is a difference between the blue fluorescent spots in the memory sea and the blue fluorescent spots in the memory overseas.
The green fluorescent spot in the memory overseas is as warm as a hot spring, and the spiritual consciousness will obviously grow after being swallowed, but the blue fluorescent spot in the memory sea is cold and cold. After swallowing, the spiritual consciousness does not grow stronger, but it has a little more resilience.
From this point of view, it is also a good choice to occasionally devour some fragments of divine consciousness in the sea of memory.
After this investigation, Baiyunlou completely let go of the block in his heart, and he can sleep peacefully.
In the next few days, Baiyunlou lived very leisurely, occasionally studying medical scriptures and Taoism, and enjoying sightseeing in the mountains and rivers.
But I didn't forget to help Aniang add the incense money with instructions, and asked the Taoist priest who went down the mountain to buy it to send a message to Uncle Li at the inn, and set off for the academy a few days later.
After studying the Taoist book collection for a few days, and entering the sea of consciousness every night to deepen my memory, the harvest is not small.
Early this morning, the little Taoist priest who guarded the mountain came hurriedly, saw Baiyun Tower making a salute, and said crisply: Master Bai, the temple master has left the customs. I heard that the son is coming, let Xiaodao invite you to go and have a talk. .”
Baiyunlou was very happy to hear the words, so he naturally accepted the invitation and walked to the back mountain with the little Taoist priest.
The trees in the back mountain are lush, the branches are full of spring, and clear springs can be seen everywhere.
After turning a few turns, we came to a bamboo forest, and there were two thatched cottages hidden in the bamboo forest.
It's a quiet retreat.
An old Taoist standing in front of the thatched hut, hale and hearty, with white hair and a childlike face, is the master Xianyunzi.
Bai Yunlou hurriedly stepped forward to pay respects, bowed and said: Yunlou has met the Taoist priest, and I missed the last farewell, and this time I came to the mountain to pay a visit.
Xian Yunzi raised his hand to support him, and said with a smile: Your look is full of vigor and freshness. It seems that I haven't seen you for two years. You have a good chance. Let's go, let's talk about it in the hut.
There is a low table, two futons, and a low couch in the hut. It is simple and simple. The breeze and warm sun come in through the curtain, and the fresh bamboo fragrance is everywhere.
The old Taoist sat down first, picked up the red clay teapot on the table and poured two cups, said: Little friend Bai, come and taste the clear tea from the mountain behind Yunfeng.
Bai Yunlou sat down on the futon at the west head, thanked the old Taoist, picked up the teacup, smelled the fragrance of the tea, and took a sip.
The fragrance of tea was overflowing, and Baiyun Tower couldn't help feeling refreshed, and praised: As expected of the tea from Izumo Peak, it should have been moistened by the clouds and mists of Izumo Peak to infuse this fresh and refined camellia, Daoist, this tea Do you have a name?
The old Taoist stroked his beard and smiled: There is no elegant name, just call it Qingcha, just like practicing Taoism, it seems magical, but in fact it is just to explore the mysteries of this world through practicing oneself.
Bai Yunlou thought about it and said: Cultivate yourself and explore the mysteries? I read some biographies of immortals and gods when I was young. Those with advanced cultivation can call the wind and rain, escape the world, and yearn for it. Are these magical fairy arts the mysteries?
No and no. The old Taoist tasted a sip of green tea and said, The secret is the law and the law of the movement and change of all things. If you see the origin of the law clearly, you can use one method and make all kinds of tricks come true.
There are thousands of laws in this world, and ordinary people can also see through some laws and regulations. Spring plowing and autumn harvesting, the sun and the moon rotate, and these laws and laws can make the world endless.
The ascetics practice themselves, and they are also exploring these laws. The higher the cultivation level of the ascetics, the more laws they can see, and the clearer they are.
Bai Yunlou said clearly: I have been taught, and I dare not forget the teachings of the Taoist priest. The two Daoist scriptures given by the Taoist priest are also very rewarding. If the students are unclear about something, they still hope that the Taoist priest will clarify their doubts.
My little friend, please speak.
The student and the Taoist priest are neither relatives nor relatives, and the student's qualifications are stupid. He Gu is so favored by the Taoist priest, and the students are terrified.
Xianyunzi stroked his beard and smiled and said: This is also the fate of the poor Taoist and the little friend. That day when I was doing morning exercises on the edge of the cliff, I ran into the little friend. The little friend was sincerely seeking the Tao. Seeing a fiery and firm original intention, and thus having some insights, this is the reason for this retreat, and what I just said is exactly what I realized during this retreat, the so-called law of cause and effect is nothing more than this.”
Pindao has a way to observe people's appearance. The last time I watched the little friend with sincerity and firmness. This time the retreat has achieved great success, and I can see it more clearly. The little friend is now strong and clear. It should be a great opportunity for the spiritual consciousness. .”
Baiyun Tower heard the words and said: Exactly, I got a chance two days ago and strengthened my spiritual consciousness. This time I am going on a study tour, and I am here to ask the Taoist priest to give me some pointers.
The old Taoist heard the words and said: Sure enough, most ascetics spend their whole lives practicing, and the growth of spiritual consciousness is also limited. The growth of spiritual consciousness can be described as a great opportunity. My friend, don't let the opportunity out to others, so as not to cause trouble.
Baiyunlou nodded in response: The students have written it down.
