Chapter 8 Hong Lunatic

In this way, in the atmosphere of every word, Zhang Jingxiu remained silent for the most part. Soon the two came to a place in a square, with many people sitting cross-legged, listening to an old man's lecture with a solemn expression.

"Senior Brother Zhang, this is Nanyan. Because it is the ascension place of Emperor Zhenwu, it is also called the holy land of Wudang Mountain. The top rock is Duyang Rock. The main building is Tianyi Zhenqing Palace. The surroundings are Liangyi Hall, Huangjing Hall, Bafeng Pavilion, Dragon and Tiger Hall..."

Huang Mingyou's voice was extremely low, and he was obviously unwilling to disturb the speeches on the practice of Taoism in the square. It was a kind of respect for the old man who preached. To be precise, he did not dare to offend the other party.

Zhang Jingxiu listened very seriously, but his attention quickly shifted, and almost all his mind was placed on the old man's sermon. Gradually, as he listened more, although he was not very understanding of most of the content, and although he was confused, he still felt enlightened.

Strictly speaking, this is the first time that Zhang Jingxiu has heard a formal sermon, just like a lecture in the secular world.

The old man with fairy style and Taoist bones seemed to be as thin as a firewood, with silver hair, and his voice was not loud, but he was like a magic sound, echoing slowly over the square. Zhang Jingxiu tried it. No matter where he stood, the intensity of the sound was exactly the same, as if the distance would not affect the propagation of the sound.

"The great way of heaven and earth, cultivators mainly use internal alchemy techniques, and the Qigong for building the foundation of the inner alchemy technique can be divided into four stages: refining essence into qi, refining qi into spirit, refining spirit into emptiness, and refining emptiness into Taoism. Spiritual energy is just a catalyst in the cultivation process, not an indispensable thing, the key is still dependent on one's own cultivation."

"Three flowers gather in the top, and the three flowers are the essence, energy and spirit! The top is the palace meeting point; the five qi are facing the Yuan, and the five qi are the five internal organs of the human body, namely the heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys, corresponding to the five elements of the human body, metal, wood, water, fire and earth, and Yuan is the Guanyuan point of the human body."

"According to the latest ancient practice scriptures discovered, the "Immortal Sutra" records that the brain is the sea of ​​marrow, which is called the upper dantian; the heart is the crimson fire, which is the middle dantian; three inches below the navel is the lower dantian."

"The lower dantian is the home where essence is stored; the middle dantian is the home where energy is stored; the upper dantian is the home where essence is hidden."

He was talking to himself all the time and did not receive any response. Huang Mingyou couldn't help but feel bored. He soon discovered Zhang Jingxiu's abnormality. Looking along with Zhang Jingxiu's gaze, he realized that Zhang Jingxiu's mind was on the old man's preaching.

However, looking at Zhang Jingxiu's infatuated appearance and being so fascinated by the old man's preaching content, Huang Mingyou's expression was a little strange. Then he leaned over to Zhang Jingxiu and said with his ears: "Senior Brother Zhang, what's the good thing about this?"

The old man's preaching content was still echoing in his ears, and he was suddenly interrupted by Huang Mingyou. It was almost a conditioned reflex, a habit developed over the years, just like being interrupted by someone when he was reading the classic works of a saint.

Zhang Jingxiu frowned slightly, with a trace of dissatisfaction on her face, but it was also fleeting. She turned her head to look at Huang Mingyou and asked back with a sense of response: "Junior Brother Huang, what's wrong? I feel that this senior is quite reasonable. Is there anything wrong with it?"

"whispering sound--"

Huang Mingyou suddenly made a dissatisfied nasal voice, and looked at the old man with even more lips. Although he looked contemptuous, he did not dare to offend the old man too clearly. Instead, he explained in a low voice: "Senior Brother Zhang, you don't know anything. Don't look at the old man with the title of Wudang Sect's elder, but in secret, he was given the nickname Hong Caizi."

"Hong Caizi--?"

Zhang Jingxiu suddenly became interested. Although he was still puzzled, he just responded like a whisper. He didn't say too much. He just looked at Huang Mingyou so straight, waiting for the other party's next words, explaining why an old man was called a "madman"?

"Senior Brother Zhang, you don't know that Elder Hong's philosophy of cultivation can no longer be described as deviant and shocking. Various new theories of cultivation emerge one after another, one more shocking, completely subverting the current cultivation system."

"If his cultivation had not reached the early stage of the Nascent Soul and had the corresponding strength, he would have probably gotten rid of the elder's name and even expelled from Wudang Mountain. In fact, his views were too deviant and could easily arouse public outrage."

"The irony is that his cultivation is obtained from traditional cultivation methods, not based on his new cultivation concept. It can be said that his theories seem reasonable but have no practical basis. If he practices, he will take great risks."

Zhang Jingxiu finally understood the origin of the old man's nickname, why was he called Hong Caizi?

Dare to propose new cultivation theories are often completely opposite to the existing cultivation concepts, or even contrary to the ones.

This boldness and rebellious spirit are the unique actions of madmen in the eyes of others.

However, although the doubts in my heart were resolved, new confusions followed one after another.

"Junior Brother Huang, since this is the case, why is Elder Hong's sermon still so popular?"

Following Zhang Jingxiu's gaze, Huang Mingyou also looked at the audience in the square. Although not everyone listened very seriously, most of them looked hungry and hungry.

"Hehe... Senior Brother Zhang, what's so strange about this?"

When he didn't answer the question, Huang Mingyou's expression was still so dissatisfied. There was a light of contempt in his eyes. Without waiting for Zhang Jingxiu to respond, he continued: "The reason for this is not because it is related to the opening of the Tianfu treasure."

"Well-Junior Brother Huang, what does this have to do with the treasure of the Tianfu?"

Zhang Jingxiu couldn't help but ask, but his heart moved, as if he had thought of something, and had some guess, but he was not very sure.

"Senior Brother Zhang, this is true. Recently, many cultivation books have been leaked from the Tianfu. Some of the contents of some of the exercises and the concept of cultivation are exactly in line with the new cultivation theory of Elder Hong, and they have certain similarities. This has attracted the attention of the sect and attracted many disciples to listen to his preaching."

Speaking of this, Huang Mingyou suddenly stopped and gave Zhang Jingxiu a wink. Then, he looked at the audience in the center of the venue meaningfully, and then slowly spoke again, still lowering his voice.

"Senior Brother Zhang, you probably have discovered that more than 80% of these people who listen to Elder Hong's preaching are outer disciples, most of whom have just entered the Wudang Sect, and among them, outer servants occupy the vast majority."

"It can be said that even though Elder Hong's new cultivation theories have obtained some evidence from some ancient classics, there is not much audience. Especially, the longer the practice, the more he disagrees with his theory."

"And, whether it is the Wudang Sect or other forces in the cultivation world, there are many people who have proposed new cultivation concepts, but it is based on reality. Most people use the existing cultivation system in the cultivation world to make certain expansions and propose new theories, which have certain factual basis, but no one is as bold as Elder Hong. The new cultivation theory is as imaginative as it is, and it is hard to understand, and they dare not try it easily. It is really too expensive."
