Xu Laodao said with a smile, "Of course not, otherwise, there will be thousands of practitioners in heaven, Xiao Huo. Let me ask you, what is the value of giving a J and jīng to an illiterate person?"
Huo Junzhong thought for a moment and said, "It seems that he can wipe his ass."
Xu Laodao said: "Although it’s a bit vulgar, it’s the same reason that Xiao Huo, ascending the scriptures to the west or viewing the scriptures are not secret books, but they can be found everywhere. However, ordinary people look at the Taoist scriptures, just like an illiterate who looks at a scroll, no matter how colorful it is, the only thing for him is to wipe his ass. However, if others tell him, although he can’t understand the beauty of the text, he can roughly know what is described in it and learn the text.
Huo Jun got it, and now he belongs to the stage of wiping his ass.
Xu Laodao said, "Xiao Huo, a practitioner at first, didn’t have words. At that time, heaven and earth were full of aura and immortal bones, so they naturally knew how to practice, and they echoed with heaven and earth, and the Tao was integrated. Zhuang said that real people could ride the clouds and break the fog, walk against the wind and walk in the light and shadow of the moon, wading through the fire without hurting their knives and axes, and their feathers could not fall behind. The aura of heaven and earth gradually became scarce. Some people with great wisdom rely on natural immortal roots to make their lives come true, and they sought the Tao. I am a saint, but the written language is acquired, and there is a limit in the end. If I want to express the Tao, I can’t explain it. I once said that there is no writing, no idols, and the old gentleman once said that my words are 5,000, which is incomprehensible and unreadable. However, for most practitioners, they understand things and laws directly, so they keep interpreting them according to their own understanding. Therefore, you have different spiritual realms and the same scriptures.
Huo Junzhong asked, "What can be regarded as practice?"
Xu Laodao said, "Go and say hello to Xie Xiao. You will stay with me in the future. However, in the next few days, you should first get rid of the Lu sisters’ affairs. When you practice, you are most afraid that you will not be able to concentrate. Instead of practicing by law, you will kill yourself. In the next few days, don’t eat meat and fish food, don’t eat oil, and eat some sugar to supplement your body and clear your stomach."
That night, the Lujia sisters came to Huo Junzhong, and their eyes were red. Obviously, they cried and Huo Junzhong smiled and said, "Why are you crying? Don’t you like me to do things?"
The two men shook their heads at once, and the younger sister Hong Lan, who was more active, wiped her eyes and sobbed, "Xiao Huo, we are very happy. It’s true to us. Our fate is the same as that of our mother. We married, had children, mowed grass and farmed. Xiao Huo, who died in this mountain, didn’t see anything. Will you take us to the city and let us see address unknown, a building as high as a mountain, and know how to move the stairs?"
Huo Junzhong nodded, and two 15-year-old girls held him together and cried with excitement and timidity. They cried because their fate changed, and their tears and noses wet Huo Junzhong’s clothes. Huo Junzhong was not in a hurry and slowly comforted them.
When the two men finished crying, Huo Junzhong said that he had arranged "a week, you and Xiaoling will go to the city together, and I will let Grandpa arrange for you to live and you will arrange for school."
"Aren’t you going back?" Qinglan has a brother’s fear, and their sisters, the farthest one generation goes is once every ten days.
"I still have some things to leave." Huo Junzhong didn’t say that he left his destination. I don’t know why. He felt that practice didn’t need too many people to know.
"Elder sister, what’s to be afraid of? No matter how bad it is, it won’t be worse than marrying that idiot brother." Lu Honglan gnashed her teeth. Compared with her gentle sister, her compatriots gave birth to her, and her lattice burst a lot.
After seeing off the Lujia sisters, Huo Junzhong also talked to Master Xie alone, saying that he was going to live in the Taoist temple recently. At the same time, please ask Master Xie to send Lujia sisters and Hui Ling to the city to see his grandfather. It is impossible for three girls to never take a train. A few years before the little girl from Dashan went to the city with no one to lead the way, Huo Junzhong watched the net, and all kinds of social news also saw many Lujia sisters beautiful and simple. It is very obvious that this way will be abducted by traffickers.
Master Xie knocked off the ash at the edge of the chair, his face shrank together, and it was like being crossed by a pear. "Xiao Huo, you are kind, but you are a child after all. It is no small number to let three girls study in a big city. I’m afraid you can’t make up your mind alone."
Huo Junzhong speaks and does things calmly, which often makes people forget that he is fourteen years old, but he is still a minor after all. Master Xie and Master Huo knew each other in those days. When Master Huo was rushed to the countryside, it was in this small village that he spent the turbulent years. Because of this, Huo Junzhong came here to recuperate. Although Master Xie and Master Huo knew each other for many years, he was not sure that Master Huo would take these three little girls in.
Huo Junzhong said, "My father has quite a fortune abroad. He will give me 30,000 yuan a month and my life will increase with my age. In the past two years, I have also saved some money. I am in the mountains and have no money. This money is still ok to support their three."
Master Xie sighed, "Xiao Huo, I know you are kind, and you don’t like our rules in the mountains. However, my girl’s family will marry after all. The more she has seen the world, the more she will cross the country. For them, it is not necessarily a good thing."
Although it is a modern society, in Master Xie’s mountain village, people’s concept has not changed much from that of hundreds of years ago. For Huo Junzhong, who grew up in the city, this concept is an insult to women, which is naturally unacceptable. However, he will be dissatisfied and say with a smile: "Grandpa Xie, don’t give them a chance. The outside world is different. Maybe they can find their own happiness outside. Little Hui Ling has been approaching me for a year. I said,
"I can’t keep a woman in my heart." Master Xie finally made up his mind, and he always liked little Hui Ling. He was also very pleased that his granddaughter had this opportunity.
Finally, it was decided that Master Zhou Xie and his son took the Lujia sisters and little Hui Ling to the city to see Master Huo. Huo Junzhong wrote a letter and said his decision, hoping that Grandpa would help him take care of the three little girls.
The next day, Huo Junzhong moved to live in the Taoist temple.
Hearing his arrangement, Master Xu Tao was very pleased that "to practice is to learn to be a man first, and to be a man is to do merit, but not to be a man, to practice what way and what merit."
Mr. Xu Daoye first brought Huo Junzhong to a big wooden barrel. The smell of Chinese medicine in the barrel was pungent, and there was a faint smell of sulfur, which made Huo Junzhong take off his G and enter the barrel. The water was hot. After Huo Junzhong entered the barrel, he jumped out almost immediately, but his shoulder was put on by Mr. Xu Daoye’s hand, and he could not move. He gritted his teeth and endured the stinging pain caused by the biting skin, soaking in hot water: "People will put pores when heated, which is more conducive to absorbing medicine."
Huo Junzhong was soaked until he was about to collapse, and then he came out of the bucket by Xu Daoye, and put it on the stone bed. He smeared his body with a sticky ointment, and tried to hold Huo Junzhong’s body. "Practice, cultivate self-cultivation, then cultivate the mind and body, and cultivate J and jīng yuan. Only in the past can we cultivate the mind. In practice, there were martial arts and swordsmen, that is, we can start with self-cultivation, but we can also look at other ways. Instead, we have achieved nothing but skin and attach importance to self-cultivation. It doesn’t turn into fly ash, and after years of practice, there is nothing left for you, such as weak body, impassable blood vessels and blocked meridians. I will help you wash your marrow first, and you can practice after removing gastrointestinal toxins with drugs. "
Chapter ii test of monasticism
For dinner, Huo Junzhong also ate medicinal soup. The staple food was a pile of pine and a small piece of yam.
After dinner, Xu Laodao took Huo Junzhong to the courtyard where the stars twinkled in the middle of the night and the splendid Milky Way stretched out. Huo Junzhong liked to watch the stars since he was a child. Whenever he looked at the stars, he felt as if there was a magic power that sucked his consciousness in and made him forget his illness.
Xu Lao Dao Zheng Se said: "Xiao Huo, since ancient times, there have been thousands of ways to practice from the immortal family, Taoism, but later Taoism and Buddhism, but no matter how you practice your body, method and mind, you have to start with breathing. It can be said that there are thousands of ways to practice, and you must practice breathing and breathing before you leave meditation."
Huo Junzhong rubbed his nose and asked, "Mr. Xu Tao, isn’t everyone born with breathing?" Introduction to practice is to breathe. What is it? "
Xu Laodao replied: "People don’t need to breathe in the mother’s womb. After birth, they are separated from the mother. The first thing to do is to breathe the newborn crying, which means that if the newborn can’t cry, the doctor will beat the baby’s buttocks to make it breathe and wail. Breathing is the most important person in life. It can support three Ri, not eating, and seven Ri, but it doesn’t breathe, no matter how strong a person is. First of all, we should be able to get rid of the limitation of breathing step by step, such as not breathing through the nose and mouth, and directly breathing through the body. That is to say, from the day after tomorrow, we will step into the innate person, who is famous as a fairy. Although he is healthy at the age of 100, he can have children and raise children. His strength is better than that of a dragon elephant, and he can kill tigers and leopards with his fists. He needs external force, is self-contained, does not fake foreign objects, does not need water, eats and breathes, and is integrated with his bones and muscles That is, the body is like the moonlight, the consciousness lies, the avenue is integrated, the heaven and the earth share the same life, neither birth nor death, nor scale nor immortality, which is the ultimate goal of monks. "
Huo Junzhong asked curiously, "Mr. Xudao, what is your realm now?"
Xu Laodao sighed lightly: "Sixty years ago, I reached the innate realm, but in the past 60 years, I have made little progress."
Huo Junzhong asked again: "Is it necessary to practice in the mountains without contact with the outside world?"
Xu Laodao shook his head and said, "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no Practice is not escape. The biggest obstacle for practitioners is in their hearts. All practitioners have to face the seven emotions, six emotions and five senses. You know, going against the sky, going against the head and escaping, will not only make your practice fail, but also kill your practice path. It is a turning back of the law and cannot be regretted.
