Chapter 89 The Realm of Taoism(1/2)
If the treasure is appraised by the court, you cannot control your fate.
They should have understood this as early as when they got the ten taels of silver to buy their lives from Lin's pawn shop.
Even if he has the psychic treasure mirror next to him now, he cannot guarantee that he will not encounter fatal danger in the future when the treasure mirror is used to cleanse evil spirits.
Then, he started looking for the corpse again, and soon found the first court apprentice who had been penetrated by the Corpse Brain Worm.
The other party died very quickly, and there was no sign of pain on his face, but his soul was constantly being eaten by corpse-brain worms, and his resentment was much stronger than that of the corpses around him.
If the grievances are not vented over many years, although the soul of the apprentice will completely dissipate, his body will inevitably turn into a zombie and harm the party.
Using the spiritual eye technique, Chen Shaojun recited the Soul-Saving Sutra again.
Read the Soul Sutra once and for all.
The resentment on the opponent's body quickly dissipated, and the Corpse Brain Worm couldn't stand the soul-pacifying effect of the Soul Sutra. It quickly emerged from the corpse and quickly flew towards Chen Shaojun.
Now that he knew that this thing was the corpse brain worm recorded in the Five Poisons Heart Sutra, he naturally also knew the corresponding capture method.
With a slight movement of his hand, a small can made entirely of metal appeared in his hand. He then moved it down and directly covered the Corpse Brain Worm in the can.
Everything is very fast.
With the two techniques of "Empty Hands" and "Three Immortals Returning to the Cave", not to mention that the Three Corpses Master only occasionally looked in his direction, even if he opened his eyes and looked closely, it was difficult to see what he was doing at this moment.
After covering the can, Chen Shaojun quickly found the body of another apprentice.
Do it the same way.
The second Corpse Brain Worm was also put into an iron can by him.
Plan completed.
Chen Shaojun has no intention of staying here any longer.
The cold eyes of the Three Corpses Master fell on him from time to time, which made him feel uncomfortable.
However, when he stood up and was about to say goodbye to the other party, the three corpse old man came over instead and said: "My little friend is planning to leave."
"Yes, thank you sir for your guidance."
Chen Shaojun replied obediently.
The old Taoist of the Three Corpses chuckled, looking friendly, and said: "Come to think of it, I'm actually a bit embarrassed to be the old Taoist."
Seeing Chen Shaojun's expression of doubt, he continued: "What scripture did you recite just now?"
Although he is known as the Three Corpses Master outside, his official identity is that he is a temple priest, and of course he also knows some methods of chanting sutras for salvation.
Naturally, I can tell that there is something extraordinary about the scripture that Chen Shaojun just recited.
At least in terms of saving the souls of the dead, it is much better than the few articles he knows.
"Oh, this is actually a scripture that saves the souls of the dead, called the Soul-Saving Sutra.
When I was a child, our village suffered a disaster and many villagers died.
An old Taoist happened to visit our village and recited this sutra to save the villagers.
Later, because he had to leave temporarily, he simply passed this scripture down. So whenever someone died in the village, the old man would recite the Soul-Saving Sutra to save the dead villagers.
I don’t know what the effect will be, but our village has never been haunted since then.”
Chen Shaojun was stunned for a moment, and then quickly made up a story.
This is also his common skill. Anyway, the chances of the two parties meeting are not many, and the other party will not go out to inquire about something because of a set of scriptures for no reason.
"Yeah?
This scripture of yours does have some merit.
It's bright at dawn in the upper ditch, and it leads to the underworld at the lower end.
No matter how much resentment you have, it will be difficult to resist the salvation method of this scripture. It is no wonder that your village has not been haunted for many years."
The old master of the three corpses nodded, and then said slightly tentatively: "To be honest, I am very interested in your Soul Saving Sutra, and I wonder if you can teach it to me?
Of course, I won't let you suffer either.
How about I exchange this soul-soothing bell with you?"
"Soul Soul Bell?"
Chen Shaojun looked at the other party calmly.
"This soul-suppressing bell is actually a magical weapon that scares ghosts.
I know that when you come to appraise treasures, you will occasionally encounter disturbances from ghosts. Once you have this soul-calming bell, you only need to shake it gently, and the ghosts will not dare to act rashly. It can save your life at the critical moment."
Sanzhi Laodao explained.
"really?"
Chen Shaojun asked, pretending to be surprised.
"Of course I won't lie to you.
In fact, we temple ministers often practice basic Taoist teachings, and we are often visited by people asking for help.
This soul-calming bell is, to a certain extent, what we eat from. No matter how many people want to buy it, I am not willing to sell it.
Just today, I felt that your Soul Sutra was a bit magical, so I decided to take out this soul-soothing bell."
The old man of three corpses opened his mouth and said.
"Then I'll thank you, old man."
Chen Shaojun cupped his hands.
Although he didn't know if the other party really decided to give up the soul-suppressing bell in exchange because of this soul sutra, he didn't feel like he was at a disadvantage if he could get a magic weapon.
After all, this is something that truly belongs to Taoist practitioners.
Although he had seen many treasures before, this was the first one that truly belonged to him.
So, Chen Shaojun went to the Three Corpses Master to get some paper and pen, and quickly copied down the Soul-Saving Sutra.
Of course, in order to hide his clumsiness, he naturally would not show off his calligraphy that he had mastered long ago. The scriptures he wrote would only be roughly neat and neither ugly nor biased.
Then, both parties exchange.
Chen Shaojun handed the scriptures to San Zhi Lao Dao, and he also got the other party's soul-soothing bell.
Because he was afraid that the other party would break his promise, he also made plans to get violent or run away immediately.
After all, he is seeking skin from a tiger.
Fortunately, I was overly concerned about everything. The Sanzhi Lao Dao actually violated the other party's usual code of conduct as an evil cultivator and completed the transaction with him normally.
Perhaps, it's because a mere magic weapon is not worth exposing the other party's identity?
Chen Shaojun guessed, and his thoughts immediately became active.
Based on the idea that this opportunity was rare, I quickly raised some questions about some issues related to Taoism and Dharma practice.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Old sir, although I have a low status, I have always been very curious and yearning for Taoist practice.
Can I ask, how can one become a Taoist practitioner? Is this Taoist practice the same as a warrior practicing martial arts, with several realms?"
"Huh?
You kid, you are quite ambitious."
Surprised, the old Taoist Sanshi might be in a good mood because he got a soul-saving scripture, so he explained it in a rare way, saying: "The most important thing in practicing this Tao is qualifications.
That is, the spiritual root and the wisdom root.
Only if a person has spiritual roots and wisdom roots in his body, can he become a Taoist practitioner.
Otherwise, even if you master the Taoist scriptures, it will only be a castle in the air, and it is impossible to succeed in cultivation.
As for the realms, there are indeed several, such as condensing essence, building Tao, golden elixir, and transforming into an infant... one step at a time will lead to the scenery, and one step at a time, one will reach the sky.
Each realm is divided into levels one to nine.
Among them, those in the Condensing Yuan realm are called Taoists, but even though they are just Taoists, they have actually mastered some spells and powers that ordinary people cannot provoke.
As for the Taoist realm, they are called Taoist priests. In some small Taoist temples, if there is a Taoist priest sitting in charge, it can already guarantee a place of incense and make the people around dozens of miles live and work in peace and contentment.
As for the Golden Elixir realm, it can be called a real person. It is said that if a Golden Elixir is swallowed into the belly, my fate is determined by God. Such existences are often carefree and carefree, ignoring the court and ignoring the emperor's favor.
The last stage of transforming into an infant is actually what we often call the True King.
The powerful True Lord often sees the beginning but not the end of the dragon. He can indeed be regarded as the top existence in this world.
But I heard that there is no end to Taoist cultivation, and there is a realm beyond the transformation into a baby.
It's just that I am ignorant and have limited knowledge, but I don't know what realm and grace there are beyond that."
As he said this, the old man with three corpses had a look of emotion on his face.
"Condensing Yuan, Building Dao, Golden Pill, Transforming Infant...corresponds to Taoist boy, Taoist master, real person, true king..."
Chen Shaojun was stunned, his eyes were bright, showing a trace of yearning.
To be continued...
