Chapter 333: One Orifice of the Entrance
"All heavens and realms??"
Zhang Sanfeng muttered in a low voice.
Although he had never heard of these four words before, they did exactly what the name suggested.
He asked tentatively: "It is recorded in the Buddhist scriptures that the world is not unique, and that there are three thousand worlds as many as the sands of the Ganges. The Taoist scriptures also say that there are tens of thousands of time and space, and that the universe is infinite. Do you..."
Hong Kang didn't hide anything, nodded and said: "Hong doesn't have a way to reincarnate, but he has another chance and mastered a way to go to a higher level world."
Here, Hong Kang also kept an eye on things.
He didn’t say that he could always travel through all the heavens and realms.
Zhang Sanfeng's expression changed slightly, and he asked excitedly: "Fellow Taoist, are you referring to the legendary fairyland?!"
What do ascetics pursue?
Naturally, his merits and deeds are perfect and he is ranked among the immortals!
To this end, they study various methods such as fasting, taking medicine, practicing Qi, etc., and practice hard for this goal.
However, let alone immortality, even people who have reached the level of Zhang Sanfeng are rare in ancient and modern times~!
Hong Kang asked: "What does Master Zhang think the immortal world is like?"
Zhang Sanfeng said: "I would like to hear from you Taoist friends."
Hong Kang thought for a while and said: "The world is like water. Some are trickles, and some are vast oceans. Only a few fish and shrimps can survive in the streams, but only giant kun can be accommodated in the sea."
"And the so-called higher world does not necessarily mean that there are immortals everywhere."
"But it will definitely allow you, Mr. Zhang, to go one step further!"
"It is said that it is difficult to raise dragons in shallow water!"
"Zhenzhen Zhang has profound Taoist skills, but this world has limits on you after all."
Zhang Sanfeng pursed his lips.
From what Hong Kang means, it seems that this is not his first time traveling around the world!
However, Zhang Sanfeng did not ask for permission after all.
He suddenly talked about Pang Qingyang.
"Is this the reason why fellow Taoist disciples don't want to accept that girl?!"
"That girl has a cool temperament from Tsinghua University, a powerful swordsmanship, and is completely infatuated with you. Fellow Taoist...are you really not tempted?!"
Hong Kang turned his head and watched the sunset gradually fade.
"In terms of status, she is my adopted sister, but in fact, she is like a daughter in my eyes."
"After all, I'm not really young enough to have Muai~!"
"Among the younger brothers and sisters, she has the best martial arts talent! Therefore, I have spent more time on her since I was a child, and it is inevitable that I am more partial to her."
"Perhaps this preference made her mistakenly think that it was a attachment between men and women."
Hong Kang didn't know what he thought of and couldn't help but chuckle.
"Zhenzhen Zhang, don't look at her prowess in swordsmanship, but when it comes to things between men and women, ho ho..."
"She once said that even if she looks for someone in this life, she will only look for someone who can beat her! Listen to this..."
Zhang Sanfeng also smiled.
Hong Kang said: "But, then again, there are indeed very few people in this world who are worthy of her. Even the princes and nobles will still be a handful of loess after a hundred years!"
"When she sees a wider world and gets to know more talented people, maybe she can find her true destination."
Zhang Sanfeng believed what Hong Kang said.
Because he could feel the truth in Hong Kang's words.
In other words, he judged based on Hong Kang's mental fluctuations.
However, when he saw the girl Pang Qingyang, he couldn't help but think of the goose-yellow figure from more than two hundred years ago.
When we first met at Fengling Ferry, we made a lifelong mistake with Yang Guo!
From then on, that figure was no longer bright and smart~!
And I, holding the pair of iron arhats in my hands, guarded the goose-yellow figure from a distance, from a young monk to a white-haired old Taoist.
"Emotion and appearance are slightly similar...!"
………………
Hong Kang asked: "What is the "Xuan Guan Yi Qiao"?"
There are many records about "Xuanguan Yiqiao", and there are many names.
However, most of the explanations are unclear, like looking at flowers in the mist; some of the two explanations are completely contradictory. Now that Zhang Sanfeng, a true master, is willing to teach, Hong Kang is naturally happy.
If I were to study it myself, I don’t know how much time it would take!?
It's like a somersault on the needle, and a footnote in the neutral light.
Zhang Sanfeng replied: "At the entrance to the entrance, everything is silent, and a single thought cannot be realized. Suddenly, there is a feeling, and all the feelings are clear. Suddenly there is an awareness, and all the feelings are illuminated. This is the entrance to the entrance."
"However, the mysterious entrance is like fire in a stone or light in electricity. It disappears in an instant and is elusive."
"This orifice is where the true heart, true nature, true essence, true spirit, and true energy come out, and the mysterious entrance is the mechanism for it."
"The so-called "the place where one yang first moves, when all things are not born", is like this~!"
"Therefore, if you can open up the "profound entrance", you will realize the innate wonderland!!"
"At that time, you can always echo with heaven and earth, continuously absorb the essence of heaven and earth, and replenish your body."
Hong Kang was shocked.
He had previously felt that the "Xuan Guan Yi Qi" was extremely important, but only after learning its magical effect from Zhang Sanfeng's mouth did he realize its importance.
If you can continuously absorb the essence of heaven and earth into your body, your speed of opening acupoints will not be greatly accelerated!!
Hong Kang sincerely bowed his hands to Zhang Sanfeng and thanked him, performing a half-master's ceremony.
"Please also ask Master Zhang to teach me."
There is no shame in asking for advice from someone who knows more than you do.
Zhang Sanfeng said: "This orifice is the "orifice that reaches the sky". It does not mean to hold on to oneself, nor to separate from oneself. Who knows that a little bit of Yuanyang is clearly sprinkled high in the Xuanzhong of one's body, hidden in a secret place that is neither inside nor outside, and the inside and outside are unified.
Implicated."
Hong Kang was thoughtful.
Zhang Sanfeng's voice gradually became hollow and distant: "When entering concentration, there is innate ancestral energy coming from nothingness, hanging in the present like a bright moon in the sky."
"For a moment, all I felt was chaos, but a trance. There was an image in the trance; there was something in the trance. It was slim and dark, but there was essence in it; the essence was real, and there was faith in it..."
Hong Kang listened and compared what he had learned.
This passage by Zhang Sanfeng is implicitly consistent with Chapter 14 of the Tao Te Ching.
He said: There is no confusion above, and there is no ignorance below. The rope cannot be named, and it returns to nothingness. This is called the form of formlessness, the image of nothing. This is called trance.
Zhang Sanfeng's voice continued: "At this point, I don't know why or what the phenomenon is. I just feel that the innate ancestral energy suddenly becomes brighter, like the hot sun hanging in the sky. The innate ancestral energy is like a big drum attracting each other, and the old Taoist's body consciousness is also like a drum.
Welcome with a stick."
"At this point, the drum sticks are joined together like sticks beating a drum, and the speed is getting faster and faster."
"In the middle of nowhere, my mind suddenly opened, and my body and mind were shocked..."
"The old Taoist felt that his head was exploding, all the way through his body, all his joints were open, his joints were as broken, sore and soft as cotton, and his whole body was bright. He could only smell a thousand bells of thunder, ten thousand rays of rays of light, the inner and outer lights, and the sky was filled with dazzling flowers.
Thunder and lightning struck, shaking the universe.
"My whole body feels light and peaceful, my whole body is soft and numb, and I feel like I am being transformed instantly."
"My body and mind are filled with a sense of light and clarity, my mind is suddenly opened up, my whole body is penetrated, it's boundless, it's like the sky is falling and the earth is falling, but I don't know that there are mountains and water, I don't know that there is heaven, earth, people and me..."
Hong Kang asked in shock: "There is such a vision?!"
Zhang Sanfeng said: "At that time, the old Taoist only felt that the golden light was boundless in front of him. Suddenly he didn't know who I was? He didn't know where my body was. His breathing seemed to have stopped, and all the organs around his body seemed to be able to breathe again. There was light inside and outside the body and mind. , the body has integrated into Taixu..."
"These visions can all be verified after passing through the entrance. However, they are also indescribable. Each one will appear unique depending on the person's ability."
"If you have insufficient abilities, you will waste your life and miss out on the "Xuan Guan Acupoint". In the end, you may end up in a state of half-belief. What's worse, you may think that the Taoist is pretending to be mysterious and deceiving the world."
Hong Kang said: "This matter is like a person drinking water, knowing whether it is hot or cold. You must trust it yourself. Otherwise, you are a heretic!"
Zhang Sanfeng sighed: "It's exactly what fellow Taoist said."
"So the human body is created in the same way as heaven and earth."
He stood up and looked up to the sky.
"Who can wake up to the fact that everyone has an "opening to the sky" and everyone has a taste for elixir of life?"
"Everyone has an alchemy furnace, and everyone has a ladder to heaven."
