Chapter 90: Yuanshi Tianzun hasn't been born yet
Chapter 90: Yuanshi Tianzun has not been born yet
After Li Yuan turned a few more pages, he satisfiedly put down the Samadhi of Food in his hand and told the truth. This was the first time he had seen such a simple and easy-to-understand book that he could clearly understand after reading. Because the five internal organs correspond to the five elements, the balance of the five elements of the human body is maintained, which is to ensure health.
The balanced intake of ingredients that ensure the five elements attributes ensures the balance of the five elements of the human body. How simple and easy to understand. Just by looking at it, I don’t need Wukong to explain it to myself, and I understand it all.
"Wukong, your book is well written." After seeing this book, Li Yuan seemed to see his hope for immortality. "I understand clearly, I will understand at a glance."
"Your Majesty has been awarded too much. The so-called true teachings are just one sentence, and it is falsely passed down thousands of books." Wukong said calmly, "This Samadhi of Food is the result of the monk and his master for decades. It is the true teachings in the true teachings, so naturally it will not be mysterious. If people follow the method of this book, even if they cannot live forever, they will be enough to prolong their life."
"Hahaha" Pei Ji laughed aside, "You little monk have such a big tone. How old you are, it will be the true teachings for decades."
Wukong just smiled and nodded at Pei Ji, without refuting at all. At this time, Li Yuan spoke for him, "Pei Jian doesn't know anything. I asked Wen Ji yesterday. Wen Ji said that Wukong was talented and quickly started Su Hui in his previous life after following Monk Daoxin, so it's not wrong to say that decades are not wrong. Otherwise, Pei Jian, think about it, are there people as calm and composed as Wukong among the eight-year-old children?"
"Is that true?" Pei Ji showed a curious look on his face, as if it was the first time he heard of this news, "Wukong, who was your previous life?"
"All kinds of past lives are like water without traces. This life is what we can grasp..." Wukong calmly put his hands together, "Pei Sikong, instead of considering who I was in this life or who I am in this life, it is better to live the current day seriously."
"Okay said it," Li Yuan took off his reading glasses again and rubbed his temples with his hands. "But your Samadhi of Food only mentions strengthening the body. Why are there no methods such as nourishing the essence, energy and spirit?"
"What is Your Majesty talking about the Shangqing School's method of nourishing qi and retention of spirits? Or is it the method of breaking the valley, taking medicine, promoting qi, and guiding the way of guiding the road in Louguandao?" Wukong asked with a smile.
"It's almost that's it," Li Yuan answered vaguely.
In fact, Li Yuan knew and practiced it, whether it was the Shangqing School's method of nourishing qi and retaining spirits, or the method of fasting and promoting qi in Louguandao, but basically he did not achieve any results. So compared to these things, His Majesty Li Yuan had a better understanding of activities such as rituals and praying for blessings.
This is not to say that Wang Yuanzhi or Qi pacified them and were unwilling to teach Li Yuan's true kung fu, and were worried that Li Yuan would really cultivate immortality and other things. Instead, these things were originally very picky. After all, whether they were nourishing qi and retaining spirits or fasting, their essence was a process of self-hypnosis.
For example, the technique of fasting is actually to avoid eating, because Taoism believes that there are too many impurities in grains and grains, and these impurities are combined in the intestines, which are very dirty things. If a person has too much foul energy in his body, he will definitely not become an immortal.
Therefore, the technique of fasting came into being. If you don’t eat, eat wind and drink dew, the body will naturally be filled with clear air without foul air. But what should you do if you don’t eat? At this time, you must practice the technique of fasting. That is to say, by hypnotizing yourself, you will not feel hungry.
In other words, the technique of fasting is basically equivalent to sitting alone on the ground and constantly chanting in a low voice. I am very full now, I don’t want to eat at all, I am very full now, I don’t want to eat at all... After reciting this way, if you can successfully deceive yourself, then you really don’t feel hungry.
Well, that's it. Other methods such as nourishing qi, guiding qi, and storing spirit are actually similar. Of course, it is very difficult to hypnotize yourself or deceive yourself. Generally speaking, people with weak wills are more likely to succeed than those with strong wills, and people with devout faith are more likely to succeed than those without faith.
Apart from these two types of people, the rest are those who have easily been hypnotized physiques. They practice so-called qi nourishment and spiritual cultivation and other things much faster than others. These people are so-called talented people.
For Li Yuan, who is firm in will, has no faith and decisive in the sofa, this kind of self-hypnosis method is too difficult for him. In other words, if Li Yuan himself doesn't believe it, if he can really successfully hypnotize himself, then Wukong must have helped.
After a while, since His Majesty Li Yuan has failed in his practice and has shown his current preference for Taoism, other aspects must be stepped up, so His Majesty Li Yuan's frequency of worship has increased a lot.
"It's not that I don't want to teach Your Majesty these methods, but that these methods are useless to Your Majesty." Wukong threw out a shocking sentence.
"Wukong, what do you mean?" Pei Ji interrupted, "Can Zhenren Qi from Lou Guandao and Wang Zhenren from Shangqing Sect both deceive Your Majesty?"
Damn, Pei Ji, you are indeed a Buddhist guardian. You really seize every opportunity to pour paint on the Taoist sect.
"I don't know if they are cheating me." Wukong turned his head and looked at Pei Ji, and saw Pei Ji showing a meaningful smile. "But if the two of them really teach His Majesty these things, they either deliberately deceive or they are not doing enough.
"How do you say this?" Li Yuan asked with a serious look on his face.
"Your Majesty thinks you should have practiced the methods of Lou Guan Dao and Shangqing School," Wukong said calmly, "If I guess it is good, Your Majesty should have made no progress. Moreover, during the period of practicing these methods, he still felt upset and had a strong liver fire. I wonder if I said it right?"
"You said something right." Li Yuan looked at Wukong in surprise, "What, is there anything wrong with this?"
Of course there is nothing wrong. If you sit where you hypnotize yourself, you must have fallen asleep while urging you. But you are the emperor, it is impossible for someone to let you sit and sleep. Then if you wake up and fall asleep for several days, your biological clock will be uneven before you can see the ghost. When your biological clock is disordered, how can you not be upset and lose your temper?
"Because Your Majesty is based on the beliefs of all people, you are already different from ordinary mortals." Wukong said calmly, "Let's not talk about the authenticity of these Taoist magic tricks Your Majesty practiced. Even if it is true, you will never be able to practice."
"Why?" Li Yuan asked anxiously.
"Because there is no matter in the faith of all people in the world, your Majesty's practice." Wukong said calmly, "Believing in such things can make Your Majesty transcend your Majesty from ordinary people, but it also binds your Majesty, making it impossible for you to do other things like ordinary people."
"I don't understand what you mean?" Li Yuan then asked again.
"What I mean is that Your Majesty has gathered the faith of all people in the world. Then the things that all people in the world hope that your Majesty will do will be smooth sailing. But in the same way, if what Your Majesty does is contrary to the faith of all people in the world, then what Your Majesty wants to do will not be successful."
"Just at the end of the Sui Dynasty, the people of the world hoped to restore peace. Your Majesty came into being. Although there were some twists and turns, he finally calmed down the world and was waiting for the treasure. Your Majesty, you plan to practice and live forever. I am afraid that few people in the world will sincerely hope that Your Majesty, you will do it, so..."
Wukong clasped his hands slightly, "Some will inevitably make mistakes. Your Majesty is already the ultimate in the world, so naturally there is no other extravagant desire."
"Is that true?" Li Yuan held the case with his hands and said calmly, "So that's how it is."
However, from the blue veins on His Majesty Li Yuan's hands holding several cases, it can still be seen that His Majesty Li Yuan's mood at this time was definitely not as calm as he showed.
"So that means, it is absolutely impossible for me to live forever?" After a while, Li Yuan asked again unwillingly.
"It depends on how long your Majesty thinks it will be considered immortality." Wukong continued, "If you only need to be in your seventies, then your Majesty only needs to be well maintained..."
Wukong didn't feel guilty at all when he said this, because in real history, even if His Majesty Li Yuan had not met him, and after Xuanwu Gate, he was forced to give up from his seat by his son. In such a depressed mood, he was still 70 years old.
Not to mention that His Majesty Li Yuan is still holding the health-preserving method that was jointly created by Zhang Wuben and himself. He should live longer than before.
"I'm so young in my seventies..." Pei Ji continued, "Your Majesty is almost sixty now, but he is still so strong. With your help from Wukong, you should be able to survive..." When he said this, Pei Ji stumbled into his mouth, "Ten long live?"
Ten thousand years old, what are you kidding? Wukong curled his lips in his heart. Even His Majesty Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, he only dared to say that I want to live another five hundred years. Pei Ji, you really dare to calculate. You spend ten thousand years at a single shot. Do you know, it takes less than ten thousand years, and in another thousand years, the Wuchang Uprising will be shot, and then the feudal dynasty will end.
However, Pei Ji's words were still very effective. At least Li Yuan laughed with his beard when he heard Pei Ji's words.
In fact, Pei Ji said this a little bit obsessed with it. Although he said 10,000 yuan in the end, everyone among the people present knew that what Pei Ji wanted to say at the beginning was definitely not this number. And even if it was 10,000 yuan, who knows whether Your Majesty was happy?
Who gives you the courage to limit His Majesty's age?
Wukong looked at Pei Ji, who was smiling with him, but there was a hint of anxiety in his eyes. He smiled slightly and continued, "Pei Sikong is so honest. Does this remind me of the incident when I met a god man last night?"
"Meet a god at night?" Li Yuan asked curiously, "Are you in my Tai Chi Palace?"
"Yes," Wukong answered seriously, "At that time, the young man was meditating, suddenly, the room was filled with golden light, and a god-like man full of light suddenly appeared, saying that I have achieved success in my practice in this life and should be rewarded, so I was allowed to put forward a wish, and the god-like man would help me realize this wish..."
"Then what wish did you make?" Li Yuan then asked again.
"I will carry a bite on my shoulders. Just three meals are enough. What wishes can I have?" Wukong said calmly, "So I told this god, since that's the case, I hope that Your Majesty can live forever."
"What do you think of a god?" Li Yuan asked anxiously again.
"The god sighed to Xiao Na, saying that life and death are destiny, and he has no way to change it. Let me change my wish." Wukong turned his head and looked at Pei Ji, "At that time, I remembered that when Pei Sikong followed His Majesty to see Xiao Na, he was aggressive all the way and followed the truth. Xiao Na felt that this was not good, so Xiao Na told the god, hoping that Sikong Pei Ji could become more sleek and not be as honest as he is now."
"Is that true?" Li Yuan smiled and looked at Pei Ji. At this time, he could probably guess that Wukong was teasing Pei Ji, "What do you think of the god-man?"
"The gods have been thinking for a long time..." Wukong pursed his lips, with a solemn appearance on his face, "and then he said to me, let's discuss the immortality of His Majesty today."
"Hahahaha" Li Yuan was really amused this time. While he was zipping his beard, he was also slapped the table with his hands, "I didn't expect it, I really expected it, Pei Jian, I didn't expect it to be in the minds of gods and men, it would be harder to make you dishonest than to let me live forever."
Pei Ji also cooperated with an awkward smile, but he felt relieved. After all, since he said the wrong sentence just now, as an old friend, he obviously felt that although His Majesty Li Yuan had not said it clearly, he must have been angry. It was not until Wukong finished telling this joke that His Majesty Li Yuan's laughter became normal.
"Although immortality is impossible." After Li Yuan's laughter stopped, Wukong immediately continued, "But if Your Majesty can do it according to my samadhi of food, plus some activities like walking, then as long as Your Majesty, you are willing, you will live for over 100 years or even more."
Well, Wukong's words are very cunning. He lives over a hundred years old. His speech is like a hundred years old. He lives over a thousand years old. How long can Li Yuan live? Well, I don't know, it's very long, anyway.
"Yes, since ancient times, except for the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, there has been no emperor who can live forever." Li Yuan sighed while holding several cases.
"Some of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors have fallen, such as the Emperor I once said. Most of the remaining few are just waiting to die now." Wukong said calmly, "If it weren't for the fact that there were still people sacrificing the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum, I'm afraid that Emperor Xuanyuan would be not far from death now, but even so, they are already very weak and very weak."
As he said that, Wukong raised his head with a fascination, "I have never seen anyone in heaven and in the world who can truly live forever."
"Can you say that even a god like Yuanshi Tianzun is not good?" Pei Ji asked insidiously again.
"Yuanshi Tianzun, this god has not yet gathered all his body." Wukong sneered, "If you say it seriously, he has not spoken yet, so of course it doesn't matter if he perishes."
"What, Yuanshi Tianzun has not been born yet?" Pei Ji was really shocked this time.
"Yes," Wukong showed a confident smile, "The Taoist sect came down from Lao Dan, passed on Guan Yinzi and Zhuangzi. Until the end of the Han Dynasty, who had ever heard of the god Yuanshi Tianzun? It was not until Ge Hong that the Taoist sect had such an original king with the essence of heaven and earth. Only in the hands of Tao Hongjing did he have the title of Yuanshi Tianzun."
"These are just means by Tao Hongjing to suppress other Taoist sects." Wukong said with a smile, "The ancestor of Taoist sect, Zheng Shen, has always been the Supreme Lord Li Er, from the beginning to now, and this has never changed."
"Of course, I once said that God was born because of faith. Although there was no such god, from Tao Hongjing to now, many people's worship, faith, incense, etc. have begun to produce this god in the void." Wukong continued, "But when I passed by thirty-three days ago, Yuanshi Tianzun was not born."
It is impossible not to say that after Wukong's deception for such a long time, His Majesty Li Yuan and even Pei Ji have now believed that Wukong was a powerful figure who awakened Su Hui in his previous life. Even the things like the Yuanshi Tianzun that Wukong is talking nonsense now have become half-believing and half-doubted.
"Your Majesty" Pei Ji decisively continued to stab the Taoist sect, "Since that is the case, then Taoism should not respect Yuanshi Tianzun, but should be replaced by Taishang Laojun."
"This matter..." Li Yuan pondered for a moment, "Does Yuanshi Tianzun not exist? After all, it is just a one-sided statement from Wukong. Let's discuss this matter again."
"Yes" Pei Ji nodded, but Pei Ji had already heard it in Li Yuan's words. Li Yuan should be very moved by this matter. After all, Li Yuan's surname is Li, and improving the status of the Supreme Lord Li Er is beneficial to the imperial power. As for improving the status of Yuanshi Tianzun...
Damn what is the surname of Yuanshi Tianzun? Does he have a dime relationship with the Guanlong Li family?
"It seems that after this matter is over, I should talk to this little monk." Pei Ji turned his head and looked at Wukong who was talking to His Majesty Li Yuan...
