Chapter 148, A few songs in the heart of the passing water
Chapter 148, a few songs of the passing water, a gentle word for the spring inscribed in autumn
Mei Zhenyi used the technique of self-reliance to investigate the whole body and found that there was no other abnormality, so she was unable to speak. At this time, she heard someone behind her say: "Stupid boy, do you know it's amazing?"
He turned around suddenly, but saw that his master Zhongliquan appeared in the restaurant at some point, sitting in the position of Mr. Sui, looking at him with a bitter smile. Mei Zhenyi couldn't speak, so he could only answer in his divine thoughts: "Master, why are you here?"
Zhongli Quan: "You opened the well I sealed, and I immediately knew that your practice had reached its peak, so I rushed over. Unexpectedly, I came one step late, and I happened to see how Mr. Sui dealt with you!"
Mei Zhenyi picked up the wine pot and poured wine for the master: "Mr. Sui sealed my mouth, so that I couldn't speak. Does the master have a way to solve his magic?"
Zhongli Quan's face was a little angry, but he was abnormal and did not pat Mei Zhenyi's head with a fan, nor did he glar at him. He just picked up the wine glass and said, "You deserve it! I originally wanted to punish you, but Mr. Sui has already taken action."
Mei Zhenyi smiled and said in her divine thoughts: "If Master punishes his disciple, of course he will not complain, but I just joked with Mr. Sui, so he did this, and Master wouldn't help me?"
Zhongli Quan drank a glass of wine and then said calmly: "Are you kidding casually? Do you know where you are wrong? It would be fine if you don't know Mr. Sui's identity. Since you have guessed it, you still have to talk like that, which is pretentious! ... When you deal with people, no matter whether they are humans or immortals, there is nothing wrong with this book, but what about yourself? He is an immortal, you are a human and a human. Since you have already understood, you should not have the intention to ridicule for no reason."
Mei Zhenyi looked solemn, and bowed and said, "The master taught me the right lesson. The disciple is wrong!"
Zhongli Quan put down his wine glass and his face calmed down a little: "It's good that you know your mistake, but this punishment is inevitable. Ordinary people talk about gods and immortals, and no one will blame them. But you are different. You are a cultivator, and you know who you are talking to, and you are still frivolous and pretentious. What's different from a wild man? I don't think you need to cultivate immortals anymore. You can laugh at gods and other people at home every day. Isn't it a good luck to be arrogant?"
This was a bit heavy. Mei Zhenyi knelt down on both knees and lowered her head and said, "Please punish me, Master."
Zhongli Quan looked at him and sighed, not knowing whether he was angry or wanted to laugh, and then said, "I remember that you were beaten by Fairy Zhiyan, and later I knew you were wrong. But after these years, you have grown up and have a higher cultivation level, but you still make the same mistake. This is what makes you angry for your teacher... You are very smart, but smart is not used to show off. You have seen so many masters in the immortals, who would be like you?"
Mei Zhenyi: "The disciple has a lack of mind and nature, and it is up to the master to give me some advice from time to time."
When Zhongli Quan saw Mei Zhenyi kneeling in front of him, he bowed his head well and admitted his mistake, and his tone was very sincere. He had a smile on his face: "Actually, following Mr.'s actions cannot be considered malicious. It is not a good thing that you cannot speak."
Mei Zhenyi heard that his master's tone changed, and looked up and saw him laughing, and asked, "I don't want to help me understand Mr. Sui's magic?"
Zhongli Quan put away his smile, stared at him with a stern face, and slapped him and said, "Even if he doesn't seal your mouth, he will seal your mouth as a teacher. As an immortal cultivator, what is to transcend life and death. What does it mean to not speak? Just treat it as a kind of practice, and Buddhism also has closed mouths."
Mei Zhenyi: "But this is very troublesome."
Zhongli Quan rang out again: "Discounter trouble is you asking for your own land! What is this trouble? Is it troublesome to be born, old, sick and dead? Is it troublesome to be cultivating immortals? Is there such a cheap thing in the world?"
Mei Zhenyi: "Master, don't knock me. The disciple already understands. I just want to ask you for a tip. How can I get through this barrier?"
Zhongli Quan twisted his beard and said nonsense: "When you can speak, you will naturally pass this level. As a teacher, I am here to pass your magic tricks today, so you can kneel down and not get up. Listen to the master's teachings."
The magic tricks taught by Zhongli Quan were not something that Mei Zhenyi could practice now, but a magical method that could only be practiced accordingly after he had experienced the sea of suffering. Finally, Zhongli Quan told him that when he was reborn and perfect, he reached the coast of suffering, all kinds of magical powers he had practiced in the past were free of obstacles, and he mastered the "Silentless Guanyin Technique", and he would naturally solve the sealing method he had given by his teacher.
Mei Zhenyi asked, "When I can speak, will I go through the sea of suffering like Zhiyan?"
Zhong Liquan shook his head: "That may not be possible. It is a complete transformation and it is not necessary to go through the sea of suffering. The practice of the calamity is not something you want to hide, nor is it something you want to come. It requires an opportunity and mind. When the past is revived, the heavenly calamity of the sea of suffering will come, and it will naturally come. Master is not good at saying it clearly... In fact, your cultivation is just a little short. It seems that Mr. Sui really wants to make friends with you, so he will draw a clear line for you to let you understand what is the time to go."
Mei Zhenyi sighed, "Just this line of separation, it is like the hanging of heaven and earth! My disciples have been cultivating their minds and natures for the past year, striving to be perfect and unobstructed in the past. Many flying masters in the world have not reached the coast of suffering for a hundred years. They leave the world and go to Kunlun Fairyland to choose the place to practice. I don't know how long it will take to wait."
Zhongli Quan asked back: "Are you asking me how long I will wait? But if you have this anxiety, you will never wait for this day."
Mei Zhenyi: "The disciple is either anxious or sighing."
Zhong Liquan blinked: "Then you sigh. If you have any doubts in your heart, you can solve any doubts. The questions that Master can answer have been answered. You have to solve the doubts yourself and verify the rest. Maybe your opportunity is not far away."
After Zhongli Quan taught his disciples a lesson, he taught the magic tricks, leaving Mei Zhenyi who could not speak and left. In the following days, Mei Zhenyi could only be a mute until he was reborn and had a perfect state of transformation.
With other supernatural powers, although they can communicate directly with people with divine thoughts and do not have to speak, this supernatural power cannot be used casually. If you don’t say anything else, if you run to the market, you may be regarded as a monster by others and everyone will avoid him. Moreover, Mei Zhenyi is proficient in medicine and knows that using the divine thoughts of cultivators to communicate with ordinary people once or twice may not have any serious consequences. But this will always lead to illness.
What kind of diseases are caused? Similar to the modern hysteria, schizophrenia, paranoid, etc. Ordinary people do not have the spiritual sense sensing of practitioners. The spiritual thoughts imprinted into their minds are no different from the usual hallucinations. If they are always disturbed by hallucinations and cannot distinguish the true senses of the facial features, it is indeed easy to lead to mental diseases.
Therefore, if the general practitioners communicate with ordinary people, if they are not very special, they will not directly transmit divine thoughts, and they will still speak like normal people. For example, true immortals such as Qingfeng, Zhongli Quan, and Mr. Sui are the same in the world.
There is another very important difference here, that is, the meaning of "all supernatural powers are inseparable and unobstructed". Mei Zhenyi needs to concentrate and cast spells when transmitting divine thoughts, but when she reaches the state of "all supernatural powers are inseparable and unobstructed", she becomes a natural magical power. It is similar to an ordinary person speaking, which is a normal function, and there is no need to deliberately cast any magic.
Only when you reach this level of practice can you be considered to be completely transformed. The so-called transformation also means a complete transformation of body, mind, inside and outside. This person is no longer the same person as before.
This made Mei Zhenyi difficult. From then on, he had to live a secluded life, and it was not convenient to see many people again. In fact, many monks would avoid the Immortal Cave Heaven or go to places like Kunlun Fairyland to leave the world and practice.
Mei Zhenyi did not have the intention of being a pure and innocent practitioner, but Mr. Sui made this move. He had to live in seclusion and avoid guests, which caused trouble to many things he had to do, but it did not harm his practice.
When he left Wanjia Hotel, Storekeeper Ji came over to say hello. Mei Zhenyi just waved her hand and pointed out the door, signaling that she wanted to go out, which made Storekeeper Ji a little confused.
Mei Zhenyi did not go home directly, but walked alone through the Ten Mile Peach Blossom Road with her hands behind her back. It was another spring, and the Ten Mile Peach Blossoms were so pleasing to the eye, but he did not go to enjoy the scenery, but walked forward thoughtfully. When he suddenly sensed that there was a magic power in front of him, he looked up and saw that there was no way in front of him, he realized that he had already walked to the foot of Jingting Mountain.
This place is now a real immortal cave, and ordinary people cannot enter. Of course, the mountain god Luxue will not block his footsteps. Mei Zhenyi concentrates his spells and moves to change the scenery. The scenery of the mountains and forests in front of him changes, and a winding path appears. There are bamboo forests all around, and the mountain road is covered with falling bamboo leaves. When you step on it, you will reach the Green Snow Temple.
Mei Zhenyi clasped her fists at the entrance of the Luxue Temple: "Mountain God, I want to see the fairy boy Qingfeng. I don't know where he is in the mountains, can I report it?"
Before he finished speaking, someone said behind him: "Don't let Luxue inform you, I'll wait for you here." Looking back, three bamboo chairs were placed beside the bamboo forest, two of which were open spaces. Qingfeng sat in the middle holding a cup of tea and looked at him, with a hint of undetectable smile in his eyes.
"It turns out that Fairy Child knew that I would come for a long time. Fairy Child already knew what happened in Wanjia Hotel?" Mei Zhenyi could not speak and could only answer with a divine thought.
Qingfeng's tone was a little gloating: "What's the matter with me?"
Mei Zhenyi glared at him: "Since you know I will come, of course you also know what I have to do, why ask?"
Qingfeng: "Do you want to listen to my story? Let me tell you that the storytelling of gods is not something that everyone can hear, it is not as simple as telling stories to Mr. Sui at Wanjia Hotel. With your cultivation level today, you can barely listen. Let's do this. Wait until you go back and arrange everything in your home, and then go up the mountain to listen to my story."
Mei Zhenyi came to Qingfeng to verify what Mr. Sui told him. It is said that Qingfeng had a falling out with Zhenyuan Daxian back then because Zhenyuanzi welcomed Buddhism and Qingfeng was dissatisfied. However, according to Mei Zhenyi's understanding of Qingfeng, this fairy boy did not have a sect distinction. At least he had a good relationship with Mr. Xiong. That day, he saw him greeting Huineng in Jiulin Zen Temple, and the two were old friends.
Mei Zhenyi was really curious about the origin of this fairy child and the story of Wuguanzhuang back then. As the master's instructions, he came to solve the problem if he had any doubts, so he went up the mountain to ask Qingfeng himself.
Qingfeng wanted to tell stories, but asked Mei Zhenyi to go back and arrange everything in the family, and said that with his cultivation level, he could listen to it today. Mei Zhenyi couldn't help but remember that when Qingfeng casts magic and moves the temple in Jingting Mountain, Mr. Xiong also appeared. He once asked about the past, but Mr. Xiong replied: "If you want to explain so many things clearly, it is not enough to tell them all. If you want to listen, your cultivation is probably not enough. When you have that practice, I will tell you again."
At that time, he slipped around and interrupted, "What kind of cultivation is needed to listen to stories? I often go out to listen to stories, why can't you tell me?" Mr. Xiong laughed and said, "Do you think it's a gossip about mother-in-law and daughter-in-law? How could you tell you about the past for more than a thousand years and all kinds of mysterious realms of immortals? If I really want to tell you at this moment, I am afraid that you will lose your soul."
It seems that Qingfeng cannot use ordinary methods to tell stories. If it is a thousand years of past events and various mysterious realms of immortals, it cannot be told by oral words. Instead, it must be told in a special way that only when Mei Zhenyi's cultivation reaches the realm can he be fully conveyed. I am afraid that it will not be able to finish it in one or two days.
Anyway, Mei Zhenyi also needs to live in seclusion during this period, so let’s go to listen to Qingfeng telling stories. He will go home first to arrange it.
It will take two years for Fairy Zhiyan to leave the seclusion. Mei Zhenyi ordered the ghosts and gods all over the mountain to be careful to protect them. At the same time, he did not forget his own practice. He also called Zhang Guo and Mei Yi to tell them about their current situation. He only claimed that the eldest young master of the Mei family was in seclusion and practiced Taoism again, and would not see foreign guests again, and entrusted the affairs of the Mei family to these two people to take care of.
He explained to Gu'er and Sui'er clearly that his current situation was unable to speak, but it did not hinder the communication with them. He also passed on the follow-up method of saving the body and the self-realization of the Cliff Danxia technique to these two girls, so that they could practice well when they were fine. In Mei Zhenyi's wish, he still hoped that this pair of sisters could share the immortal relationship with him forever.
Then he went to find Jihai's Protector and asked him to lead the disciples of Donghuamen to protect Qi Yunguan, and they would practice their own cultivation. Next, he wanted to find the leader of the Guan, Qu Zhensheng, but Qu Zhensheng and Li Lan took the initiative to find him. Qu Zhensheng asked Jihai's True Person to take care of Qi Yunguan for the time being, and Li Lan asked to go back to Guanzhong to join Qu Zhensheng.
Li Lan is a disciple of Donghuamen, but she also has parents and relatives in the secular world. A few days ago, I received a letter from home. The letter mentioned that her mother had eye disease, which was called cataract according to ancient times. When she saw something turbid, she always felt foggy in her eyes. One eye was blind and the other eye could hardly see things clearly. According to modern terms, cataracts are caused by turbid lenses.
In modern hospitals, phacoemulsification technology can be used to treat cataracts, break the lens and remove it. Then replace it with a new intraocular lens. If the lens is only removed and not replaced with a new ground, a pair of convex lenses can be used to correct the refractive index. In short, ophthalmic surgery can be used to treat it.
So what about it in ancient times? The West could not treat it. There were two methods in traditional Chinese medicine. One was to use drugs that were clear about the purpose or acupuncture to prevent the lens from being turbid. However, if the condition reached a certain level, ordinary acupuncture could not reverse the disease, and only surgical treatment was performed.
Can traditional Chinese medicine perform ophthalmic surgery for cataract treatment? Some people may not believe it, but the facts are true! This kind of medical technique is called "golden needle dysfunction", which is to draw a small mouth on the iris and remove the lens with a golden needle. After removal under the conditions at that time, of course, no intraocular lens can be implanted, and the patient will have symptoms of "hyperopia", but this is much better than blindness.
Generally, Chinese medicine practitioners will not and dare not do this kind of ophthalmic surgery. If you can master the golden needle dysfunction, you are a master-level doctor. But there is a Qu Zhensheng in Qiyun Temple.
Qu Zhensheng heard Li Lan mention the matter at home and said that the old man's condition might be cured, so he could take a look at it himself. Maybe he could use the golden needle to remove dysfunction to make her mother see the light again.
When Li Lan heard this, she wanted to take her mother to Qi Yunguan and let Qu Zhensheng treat eye diseases. But Qu Zhensheng said: "Don't bother the old man after thousands of miles. I'll accompany you to go there."
Li Lan said: "How can I be embarrassed to be the master of Labor Quguan traveling thousands of miles?"
Qu Zhensheng laughed and said, "I happened to receive a letter from my family. My second brother, Qu Zhen, is about to get married. I asked me to go back and take a look. I happened to go to your house by the way. I have to let Miss Qu Lilan go with me to the Qu family for a wedding. After my brother finishes the wedding, I will go with you to treat the elderly."
Of course Li Lan was willing. The two of them had discussed it privately and came to find Jihai Zhenren and Mei Zhenyi. It happened to be said that Mei Zhenyi had this situation. Li Lan said: "What you encounter in the young master is not a blessing. You have been able to fly in the sky in the past few years of practice, but you are always plagued by earthly affairs and it is difficult to enter again. Now it is time to go to seclusion and practice in peace."
Mei Zhenyi smiled faintly, thanked Li Lan, and said to Qu Zhensheng with divine thoughts: "Senior brother, just accompany Miss Li Lan to Guanzhong. That boy Zhenming has also gotten married. I have to give him a generous gift."
Qu Zhensheng refused: "I'll just bring you a congratulations, but there's no need to give gifts. Last year, my junior brother got married, so Zhenming didn't give a gift."
Mei Zhenyi shook her head straight: "He didn't know that. Now that I know, how can I not express my feelings?" He insisted on giving a gift. In addition to the gift, there was also a special gift, which was the celadon water injection he had used, and explained to Qu Zhensheng: "This is what the old god used to feed me water when I was sick. When I saw it, I remembered Master, and also the time when you followed the old god to treat me that day, so I took it as a special gift."
The next day, Qu Zhensheng and Li Lan packed up their things and set off. Jihai Zhenren and Mei Zhenyi sent them to the foot of the mountain and watched the two leave on a boat. Mei Zhenyi looked at the far away and said with a divine thought: "Jihai Zhenren, I think Li Lan and the Master of Quguan are very destined to be together. Don't you think these two are very compatible?"
Jihai nodded slightly while twisting his beard: "I can see that they have been together for a long time. They have affection for each other, but both sides seem to have not noticed it. Should they help them point it out?"
Mei Zhenyi: "I'm afraid you don't have to worry too much. Don't forget that they first went to the wedding banquet and then went to the high hall. After they came back, it would be almost done. These two people are good at medical treatment and cultivation of spiritual medicine. They are really a pair of Taoists who are made of heaven and earth."
Jihai turned to look at him and changed the topic: "The young senior wants to avoid the world's Qingjing. In fact, there is no need to go elsewhere. You can stay on Qiyun Peak. Those who are informed can still meet, not travel far away from home... You arranged everything at home to go to Jingting Mountain to listen to the fairy boy telling stories. Jinxian said this, do you also have a premonition that it will take a lot of time and will not be able to go down Jingting Mountain for a while?... Others don't have to worry, but you should have an explanation from Princess Yuzhen. Don't forget that she left it for you, and you took the initiative to take her in."
Mei Zhenyi nodded: "You are right. I'll go find the princess now and explain everything clearly today."
The uncommon withered poplars fall, and the west wind blows the dyeing worker.
Frost urges three paths outside, autumn is old in the forest.
The beautiful shadows are shining, and the beauty is shining in the sunset.
The stream flows and the cup is filled with wine, and a girl writes red.
This is a poem that Mei Zhenyi saw on the desk in the study. It was written by Princess Yuzhen. The ink has not yet dried out. Mei Zhenyi recited it silently several times, and felt a little sad in his heart. He felt the feeling in his heart when the public theme poem was used.
It is clear that the flowers bloom in spring outside the window, but the poem describes the scene of the autumn red leaves in autumn. It can be seen that Yu Zhen’s mood is grievance. Yu Zhen was lonely since childhood, and was rescued by Zhiyan and Zhiyan to Qi Yunguan. Only after she felt the rare warmth in the world, her heart was dark and her heart was filled with plum blossoms. Her temperament was soft on the outside and strong on the inside, and she looked so weak, but she had the courage to climb the city tower in front of thousands of troops. Because she was unwilling to marry Mei Xiaolang, she almost lost her hair.
As the princess, Gu'er and Sui'er, she could not get what the two girls could get. It was a good idea from Master Xingyun that she could become a monk in Wuzhou and be a female Taoist priest, so that she could always be with her lover. Although there was Yu Zhen Temple, Yu Zhen still lived in the inner courtyard of Qi Yun Temple, which was the most obvious meaning - she only wanted to have a Taoist couple, not a husband and wife status.
Yuzhen is already twenty years old, and it is quite small for her daughter's family in that era. It is also a big blame for Mei Zhenyi's negligence. Since Gu'er and Sui'er have officially married, Yuzhen can't always keep her heart hanging on Yuzhen. These days, everyone knows that he is going to go into seclusion and practice in peace. Of course, Yuzhen has heard of it and will not feel good.
Chapter completed!
