Chapter 118, Yin Shen refining the form and sealing the protector, real person fasting and practicing the food and clouds

At noon three days later, Mei Zhenyi came to the Green Snow Temple in Jingting Valley again. Time is coming, and Pi Liuzhu is still there. If it cannot condense and form within three days, Qingfeng will really set it for three years. Three years may not be a big deal for Pi Liuzhu, but practicing is like Mei Zhenyi, and you also understand the implicit meaning of Qingfeng.

If you still cannot condense the Yin spirit into shape within these three days, it will be useless to set it for another three years. Sometimes the entry into practice is not what people usually imagine, as long as you work harder and longer. If you can't penetrate a layer of window paper, it will be futile even if you meditate there for a lifetime. You have helped Mei Zhenyi a lot, so you should help it now.

The person who is slid around is locked in the clearings in the forest, which is invisible to ordinary people. People who are born with keen spiritual consciousness, such as He Yougu, may feel that this place is a little wrong and the sun is a bit dazed, but even if you pass through its body, there will be no obstacles, as if it does not exist.

Mei Zhenyi sat cross-legged in front of Ti Liuliu, concentrated his mind and entered into meditation to perform the Lingshan mental method. There was no difference between inside and outside in the state of concentration. Mei Zhenyi was still Mei Zhenyi, Jingting Mountain was still Jingting Mountain - only after achieving great success, can we achieve such a state of concentration.

Immediately afterwards, the realm of concentration changed, and the surrounding mountains and forests seemed to be gone. Honghong Yaoyao could only use Li Liu Zhui and Mei Zhenyi to speak, "Li Liu Zhui, will it be uncomfortable for these three days?" - Only by breaking the vacuum can we transform the realm of concentration in this way. Mei Zhenyi's Lingshan Mind Method has now been further increased, and the spiritual consciousness of Li Liu Zhui directly imprinted in the realm of concentration. This is the technique of "heart seal".

"Mr. Mei? I don't know where I am, I can't hear or see. Why did you appear?" Ti Liuliu replied.

"You are not elsewhere, but still in Jingting Mountain. I am not elsewhere, but in your spiritual Taichung. I am here just to ask, "Do you have any insights?" Mei Zhenyi asked slowly.

Ti Liulu: "With insights, with insights, the breeze stabilizes me, I can't feel anything, I only feel myself, there seems to be no difference in invisible and tangible, but I don't know how to break this fixed method?"

Mei Zhenyi smiled slightly: "It's okay, I can teach you the magic tricks. Master Zhongli told me that the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir pointed directly. You are the Imperman Furnace Cauldron and Cauldron, but the technique of drawing and refining the shape is just suitable for your situation at this time. In the alchemy technique, you can use it to extract Kan and refining Li to refine pure yang, or to extract Li to refine pure yin. Do you understand what it means?"

Tucking around: "I don't understand."

Mei Zhenyi: "You ask around every day, why don't you find out anything useful? Then I'll choose what you can understand. In the fire of refining the body, the body is not moving and the mind is not moving and the mind is not moving and the spirit is added. You have entered the path of the meridian, but only the extraction and not adding the heat is not enough. At this moment, if you don't move and the energy is still, then you must achieve the earth that the mind is not moving and the spirit is still. Refining the body is the way of nature. Don't think about how to break free from Qingfeng's body stamina."

Mei Zhenyi teaches the method of lifting and pulling and refining the body. The "Nine-Turning Golden Elixir Directly" alchemy technique is not suitable for the practice of lifting and turning the yin spirit, but after Mei Zhenyi was passed on, she can learn from one example and learn from another way and learn from one of the links to guide lifting and turning.

He sat for two hours. Seeing that the three-day limit was approaching, the worship whip flew out of his sleeves and turned into a cloud of smoke to wrap it around. Then he waved his hand and became solid. He heard the sound of "Ouch", and the worship whip actually let his worship whip go out. As he rolled on the ground, Qingfeng's immobilization technique was broken!

"This whip hurts so much!" Ti turned around and floated up from the ground and shouted.

Mei Zhenyi smiled and said, "It's good to know that the pain is. You can already form a preliminary form, and the Yin Spirit body has the eight touch sense."

He slipped around and stopped turning anymore, his figure was like a vague figure, and he bowed to the ground and said, "Thank you, Mr. Mei!"

Mei Zhenyi: "Don't thank me alone. If you hadn't lived in He's family and received incense, if I, Master Zhongliquan, taught you the method of calming the body and spirit. If I hadn't helped the Mingyue Fairy Child help you refine the body of the Yin Spirit. If I hadn't set you here for three days, I wouldn't have been able to help you complete this step...... I'll slip around. Why don't you turn around?"

Tie Liulu: "I just had to pass on the tricks of refining the shape, so I will naturally not turn around again."

Mei Zhenyi: "When you practice your skills, of course you must understand the stability of your body and spirit. You don't have to try the Dharma. You are just sloping around, and then you try it."

When he heard this, he jumped up from the ground and started to swirl like a joy. This turn was different from before. He saw the bamboo leaves scattered on the ground being rolled up, and a small tornado rose on the flat ground. Mei Zhenyi stood up and said, "It's enough. According to your way of playing, it's better to go to Qiyunguan to sweep the floor... Stop, I have something to explain."

The cleft stopped and the bamboo leaves flying all over the sky fell on Mei's clothes. It asked happily: "What are the instructions for Mr. Mei?"

Mei Zhenyi looked stern: "Lift around. When you went to Danxia Peak, you claimed to be my guardian. Do you still remember?"

"Of course I remember, what's wrong, Mr. Mei is unhappy?" Ti's tone was a little nervous.

Mei Zhenyi drew a circle around with her hands: "Three days ago, Zen Master Zhishen signed Luxue as the god of Jingting Mountain by the emperor's decree. Have you seen it?"

"See it." Ti Liuliu replied in confusion.

Mei Zhenyi tried her best to hold back her smile and said with a stern face: "Since that's the case, I will grant you the guardian of Jiulian Mountain as you wish."

Tiaoliu: "Is this okay? You have no orders."

Mei Zhenyi glared at her eyes, looking very much like Zhongli Quan when she glared at him: "Jiulian Mountain is my family, don't I say anything?"

He slipped around and nodded quickly: "For sure, of course!"

Mei Zhenyi: "Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva asked Mr. Xiong to be the patron and guardian of Putuo Mountain Temple. I asked you to be the patron and guardian of Jiulian Mountain. Would you not want to?"

Ti Liulu: "I'm willing, of course I'm willing!"

Mei Zhenyi spread her hands and said, "That's all, you are already the guardian of Jiulian Mountain. Since this is the case, you have the responsibility of guardians."

Ti slipped over and said, "Young Master Mei, please tell me, listen to this guardian!" It was quite quick to adapt to the character.

Mei Zhenyi: "In a few days, I will go to Luoyang, and I don't know when I will come back. There are many things at home that need your care. Zhiyan is in seclusion at the Xiaozhuo. You are restraining the protection of ghosts and gods in the mountains and will not let her be disturbed. Princess Yuzhen is in Qiyunguan. Gu'er and Sui'er also live with Yuzhen. When you are bored and lonely, you should chat with them more often. The He family has been doing well recently, and you should take care of it secretly. If something happens, you should notify Zhang Guo and Jihai Zhenren in time."

Mei Zhenyi explained so many things in one breath. Not only did she not bother to have too many things, she agreed repeatedly, and she felt happy when she heard her tone. She felt that her status as the "mountain patrol guardian" was very important. In fact, Mei Zhenyi could not explain the family affairs to Xiliu. It was just to make it pay more attention to it in normal times and communicate with you if you have any questions.

After he finished his order, Ti slipped around and said, "Mr. Mei is going to Luoyang, I originally wanted to go with me."

Mei Zhenyi reached out to pat her shoulder, but she didn't know where she was slitting around: "This time, you can't go, stay in Wuzhou. The responsibility is heavy!... Apart from these things, you can't delay your own practice. I will pass on your magic tricks and set a precept for you."

"Please make a verdict!" It is rare to hear Ti Liuzhuo's tone of such a serious and solemn tone.

Mei Zhenyi: "Don't pretend to be a god."

Lifting around: "Yes!"

After saying that, Mei Zhenyi had turned around and left the bamboo forest. Ti looked around and said with confidence. After a long time, he suddenly realized and shouted, "I'm a ghost!" He chased him out in a spin.

Mei Zhenyi was going to Luoyang, Gu'er, Sui'er and Princess Yuzhen were all very reluctant to leave. She has been preparing luggage for him these days, but Mei Zhenyi didn't need any luggage. He planned to go alone without any servants. It would be enough to have fairy boy Qingfeng follow him. Zhang Guo originally wanted to go with the young master, but there were still many things that he had to deal with in Wuzhou that he could not leave. As the acting governor, Mei Yi was not allowed to leave without an imperial edict.

That day in Qi Yunguan's inner courtyard study room, Gu'er said worriedly: "The young master wants to go to Luoyang alone. There is not even a person who cares for underground people around him."

Mei Zhenyi smiled and said, "Why do you have to take care of your servants? Do you have to make a master's tribute everywhere?"

Sui'er pouted: "How can this be said to be a show of a good example? You are the eldest young master of the Mei family!"

Mei Zhenyi: "You don't have to worry about me. Although I am the eldest son of the Mei family, I have also traveled through the world and seen all kinds of scenes."

Gu'er and Sui'er said in unison: "Actually, we want to go with the young master, so it's okay if someone serves tea and water on the way."

Princess Yuzhen stepped forward and advised, "The situation is different this time. Mr. Mei has to bring the fairy boy Qingfeng. The fewer other things, the better. It is not suitable to bring other followers... Mr. Mei, how are you planning to leave?"

Mei Zhenyi: "What are some good suggestions do you have?"

Princess Yuzhen thought for a while: "You two are on the way. The master and servant are not like the master and servant, and brothers are not like brothers, and Qingfeng Fairy Child is definitely not used to dealing with the government offices, post stations, and checkpoints along the way. I think this is better..."

She gave an idea, asking Mei Zhenyi to put on Taoist robe and put on the Book of Lu, and dressed up as a wandering Taoist priest. Qingfeng didn't need any dress, and followed him was a Taoist boy. This was the most suitable one. As for the Book of Lu, there was a ready-made one, which was the one with Master Chunyangzi, who looked a little wrong. Although his age seemed a little wrong, it was nothing to look younger. When he arrived in Luoyang, he would first go to Mei's house to meet his father, then change his clothes to submit the orders, and wait for the summons of Empress Wu.

Mei Zhenyi clapped her hands and said, "My, what a good idea, that's it!"

Gu'er and Sui'er looked at each other and came to Mei Zhenyi: "Young Master, when will you come back now?" The twins were in tune with each other and spoke in unison like talking alone.

Mei Zhenyi looked at them and sighed deliberately, "I don't know when I will come back." Seeing the disappointment that the two girls could not hide, she said, "There is another good news, do you want to hear it?"

"I think, please speak, Master."

Mei Zhenyi held the two girls' hands with one hand and grabbed the hands of the two girls: "When I come back from Luoyang, you can't always call me the young master. It's time to change your words and call me husband."

"Young Master, you-?" The two girls were surprised and happy, with a look of shame and lust.

Mei Zhenyi: "When I arrived in Luoyang, I reported to my father and formally hired him to the Liu family and let you get a registered residence in the Mei family. You should marry him in a lively manner." The two girls have been by my side for so long, and they are considerate and caring. They are about to be seventeen years old. They should also be officially married.

Gu'er, Sui'er couldn't speak, lowered her head and looked at her quietly with her eyes. Her expression couldn't tell whether she wanted to cry or laugh, and her pink face turned red. Seeing this, Princess Yuzhen's face turned red, quietly exiting the study room, and sighed secretly.

Mei Zhenyi's hand was slightly hard, Gu'er and Sui'er fell into his arms as soon as he softened his body, and warmed the warm fragrance hugged the left and right. This beautiful scene was about to say a few gentle words in his own private room, but a gust of scenery came, and a gust of cold wind rushed into the study. The Mei family was very strict in control, and the servants would not rush into the inner house like this, as they came to the ground to slid around.

As soon as he entered the door, he shouted: "Mr. Mei, Zen Master Zhishen has chosen the address of Jiulin Zen Temple... Uh, I'm disturbing!"

Gu'er, Sui'er buried her face in Mei Zhenyi's arms and didn't dare to raise her head. Mei Zhenyi coughed and said, "Although you can walk in, remember to knock on the door next time."

Mei Zhenyi stood on the Fenghuang Slope outside the west city of Wuzhou, with Mei Yi, Zhang Guo and Ti around her. This is where he jumped into the city at the beginning. This section of the terrain is higher than the surrounding area, with an insignificant ups and downs extending into the city. The city wall in the distance also has a wavy terrain shape along the terrain.

Zen Master Zhishen chose the site for Jiulin Zen Temple, so he chose the site of Fenghuang Slope extending to the end of the city, with the terrain extending downward from three sides, while Jiulin Zen Temple stands on a high place. This place is good. If we look at it from the Feng Shui bureau in and outside the city, it is called "Feng Nodding", which is inconsistent with the intention of Emperor Wu to issue an edict to build a temple.

If you look at a larger Feng Shui situation, the one closest to Wuzhou City in Jiulian Mountain is Jingting. From the direction of the Ten Mile Peach Blossom Road to the city, the earth's energy is like a dragon entering the sea. This inconspicuous Phoenix Slope is like a wave caused by a dragon entering the sea. It is the place where the spiritual energy surges. When you pass through the city to Jingwu Villa in the south of the city, it is the end of the earth's veins, and it is also the earth's eye where the dragon's veins spit out beads.

There is a lot of attention to building a temple at the location of "Feng Nod". Mei Zhenyi pondered for a while before asking: "Uncle Yi, you have been with Zen Master Zhishen when he chose the site. What places did he pay attention to?"

Mei Yi: "In the past few days, Zen Master Zhishen has been taking a boat along the Qingyi River and Jushui River, and has stayed outside Jingwu Mountain Villa for a long time. He seems to be very interested in it."

Mei Zhenyi: "Jingwu Villa is not in the city. It is my Mei family landlord's house. Even if he likes it, he will never speak up."

Mei Yi: "Later, he went into the city and didn't go anywhere, so he directly selected the place to choose now. Young Master, is there any particularity?"

Mei Zhenyi: "There are more particulars. It's a good place. It depends on how he uses it. My Mei family cannot monopolize the scenery of Wuzhou. If he wants to build a temple, just build it. But one thing is that Zen Master Zhishen is a big expert. What exactly he wants to do? Only after the temple is laid can you tell the difference. It's hard to say now... By the way, that's not an open space, who owns it?"

Zhang Guo replied: "It's a coincidence that it's the place where my uncle's house is. Your grandfather Liu Boshu bought it back then. Now a warehouse is built on it, but it is not commonly used... Master Liu Zhi heard that the monk had ordered this land, so he asked me to ask the young master if he donated it?"

Mei Zhenyi: "What if I don't donate?"

Zhang Guo: "Then it will be bought with Wuzhou Prefecture, but this is a meritorious act of building a temple, and the Liu family is not short of that money."

Mei Zhenyi: "Let's hold the account in Wuzhou Prefecture first, donate or sell it, how expensive it is to sell it, and wait until I come back from Luoyang. Although my uncle is not short of this money, his merits must come from his original intention. If I don't know the inside story, it's all right. But I'm also a Feng Shui expert. I'll see how Zhishen builds this temple?"

It is hard to imagine that more than 1,300 years ago, there was a bridge above the rolling Yellow River, called Fujin Bridge. The wisdom of the ancients should not be underestimated. This is a bridge combining suspension bridges and floating bridges. It is not located at the narrowest point of the river surface, but is located at the widest point of the river surface and the gentlest point of the water flow.

There are four huge iron cows across the river on both sides. The poured subway piles are deeply penetrated into the ground with the cow's body. The long iron cable is as thick as a bowl, and crosses the river surface and passes on the bull's nose to fix it. This is the main cable of Fujin Bridge. There is a small island in the middle of the river, which is also a natural section of Fujin Bridge in the center. There are also iron piles to fix iron cables on the island. Above the iron cables are thick bamboo cables made of bamboo strips. The wooden boards on the bamboo cables are very strong and can accommodate two carriages in a width.

The bridge is very long, and the height of the iron cows on both sides is limited. The iron cable has already hung on the water at both ends of the small islands in the river. At this location, the cable bridge becomes a pontoon bridge. There are rows of ships arranged on both sides of the island, fixed by iron cables, and the wooden boards on the bridge deck are laid on the boat. During the flood season of the Yellow River, the impact of the water flow is very strong. The boats under the pontoon bridge are often washed away, and bamboo cables and wooden boards also need to be replaced regularly.

The difficulty of building and maintenance of Fujin Bridge is impossible to afford it. It is an official bridge built and managed by the ground. There is also an official office for maintenance and management on the north bank. In the Tang Dynasty, Fujin Bridge was the key to traveling between north and south by land. When merchants cross the bridge, they had to pay taxes. This place is also a pass-through checkpoint.

Although there is a tax on crossing the bridge, everyone is still willing to walk on this bridge because the tax on crossing the bridge is cheaper than hiring a boat to cross the river, and it is much more convenient and fast. Therefore, in addition to the twice-year flood season, the bridge has been closed and the traffic and horses flowing on the bridge every day, which should be said to be the bridge with the largest traffic flow in the world at that time.

There are only two types of people who do not pay taxes across the bridge. One is an official official with official documents, and the other is a monk with certificates and talismans. One day in March of the first year of the Tang Dynasty, a Taoist priest with big sleeves came to the north bank, followed by a handsome boy. These two people came as if they were not covered with dust.

Seeing the two god-like appearances, the Taoist priest forgot to stop him. However, the Taoist priest took the initiative to show the book of rituals and took the boy to the bridge. The two little officials had no time to say: "Lu Xian, please leave!"

These two are Mei Zhenyi and Fairy Tong Qingfeng.

How could they come from the north bank of the Yellow River from Jiangnan to Luoyang? It turned out that they had gone to many places along the way. Mei Zhenyi had followed Zuo Youxian to travel around the Jianghuai area, but she had never been to Guanzhong area during the Tang Dynasty, so she took this opportunity to travel. Finally, she went to Sun Simiao's hometown and met Qu Zhenming, and handed him the letter and silver from Qu Zhensheng. Qu Zhenming also accompanied Mei Zhenyi to pay homage to Sun Simiao in front of Shi Imperial Doctor, and then went around to Luoyang.

Even if you don’t fly in the sky, it’s much faster than hiring a car. When you walk with Qingfeng, Mei Zhenyi doesn’t even play the tip of the shop on the road. Every night, she only meditates in the quiet place in the countryside, practices the "Nine Turns Golden Elixir Directly", and practices the "Cliff Danxia Technique" that he realized every day.

Qingfeng was not a big deal, he just asked: "What are you doing to imitate the Taoist Dharma on Danxia Peak?"

Mei Zhenyi replied, "This is my own self-understood method of protecting the body, and I thought of it when practicing fasting."

Qingfeng casually said: "What you practice is a kind of technique of fasting and nourishing qi. It was called Fuxia in ancient times. It does not have to be used as a protective method when practicing."

This sentence reminded Mei Zhenyi that he was inspired by Danxia's third son when he was practicing fasting, and could condense three feet of sunshine to protect his body. Zhongli Quan saw it but did not argue. It turned out that he had thought too much and used this technique as a fasting and qi cultivation technique to practice. Along the way, Mei Zhenyi simply stopped fasting and stopped eating. The breeze was not as good as the world's fireworks, so that he would not have to let this little fairy boy stand aside and make others "poor" when eating.

With Mei Zhenyi's cultivation, he should not be fasting for many years, but there is no problem in a month. Although he does not eat or stay in a restaurant, he only drinks clear spring water occasionally, but every time he passes a town, he always likes to go to restaurants, inns, markets, shops and other places with a large population, pay attention to the food, clothing, housing and transportation of all kinds of religions.

Before crossing Fujin Bridge, when passing by Jeju City, Qingfeng asked again: "Mei Zhenyi, why do you become more and more like a slippery person when you practice along the way?"
