On a mountain road south of Tianmu Mountain in Wuyue Kingdom, a middle-aged scholar wearing a green robe walked on a long sword in his hand. His elegant face was a little thin. It was Chu Nanfeng who left the academy to look for Ma Xilan's whereabouts.

He has traveled through many mountains in the past few months. He heard that there was a pool on the east and west peaks of Tianmu Mountain in Wuyue, so he also came. Unfortunately, he visited the mountains for a few days, but there was no trace of Ma Xilan. He had no choice but to go down the mountain to travel south, hoping to go to Wuyi Mountain in Fujian.

After lunch in a village, after half an hour, the sky changed drastically and was covered with dark clouds. It was like it was raining heavily. But in front of me, there was a ragged beggar with disheveled hair running towards the hill not far to the right, thinking that perhaps there was a temple in the hill that was sheltering from the rain, so I followed the beggar.

Located on the west side of the mountain, there is indeed a mountain temple built facing west, with small tiles on it, but there is no temple gate. As the beggar entered the temple, he saw the statue of the god on the offering table and there was no incense burner. He thought that the bronze statue must have been stolen for money.

The beggar walked to the side of the offering desk, squatted and took out a pile of straw from under the desk, took some of the corners on the west side, and pointed to Chu Nanfeng at the remaining straw, as if reminding him that the straw could be paved and rested.

Chu Nanfeng guessed that the beggar should have settled in this temple, and nodded to him and thanked him, but the beggar did not answer. At this time, amid the thunder, heavy rain poured down, and Chu Nanfeng spread the straw and sat cross-legged to meditate and rest.

After a while, two monks appeared in the rain. They walked slowly in such heavy rain. When they walked into the temple, one of the monks, who was nearly 70 years old, was soaked all over, with their eyebrows and beards dripping with water droplets, while the other was thin, and the monks who were about fifty years old had dry clothes, beards, shoes and socks.

The monk who was about fifty years old was very surprised when he saw Chu Nanfeng, and he walked towards Chu Nanfeng who had already stood up and greeted him: "Ming Wu has seen Mr. Chu." However, it was the monk who was visiting Luo Xiaoyao everywhere.

Chu Nanfeng held his hand and replied, but saw a cloud of mist on the old monk's body, which immediately dissipated. His clothes, beards and shoes were already dry, and there was no trace of wet water.

If you talk about the qi running around and steaming the water vapor of clothes, Chu Nanfeng can do it with his skills, but like an old monk, Chu Nanfeng sighed as if he was not as good as an old monk. Seeing that the old monk's cultivation had not yet entered the realm of the golden body, and it seemed that he had never hidden his cultivation. Chu Nanfeng was surprised and bowed and saw: "Chu Nanfeng had seen the master."

When the old monk heard that Ming Wu called Chu Nanfeng the gentleman, his face looked a little surprised. When he saw Chu Nanfeng bowing, he said, "The old monk Wen Yi has seen the lay Buddhist Chu." After saying that, he looked at the straw underground, leaned over and spread it a little, and sat down cross-legged. Ming Wu waited for Chu Nanfeng to sit down before meditating on Wen Yi's left side.

Wen Yi looked at Mingwu and said calmly: "You walk with the old monk in the rain, so that the raindrops will not touch your clothes; and the old monk is also dry with your clothes and shoes, but what you do in the middle is different. This is where the "meaning" is different."

It turned out that the Ming Wu monk accidentally listened to Chu Nanfeng's words in Xizhou, realized the wonders of the six consciousnesses of cultivation, broke the true body without breaking the technique that had been practicing for many years, dissipated the Qi that had been tightly tempered by the skin and flesh, but made the qi and mechanism of the acupoints of the body suddenly connect, and suddenly the soul became clear and the qi and blood were smooth, and he stepped into the realm of the golden body.

He had been fooled by martial arts for decades and practiced the Pure Land Sect, which was mainly based on other powers and thoughts, realized the wonders of Zen for a moment, and wanted to practice both Pure Zen. He returned to the "Baoguang Temple" and begged the abbot Yuanjue to give him a precepts, so he went to the "Shangu Temple" of Tianzhu Mountain to practice Zen.

The Zen meaning can only be understood and cannot be expressed in words. The Zen master of "Shangu Temple" saw that he had no desire to understand, so he recommended him to go to Master Wenyi of Qingliang Temple to receive the Dharma.

Master Wenyi's Zen Taoism is known as "Pick it out and follow the flow and get wonderful", which means that the words "repeated" are ordinary and easy to understand, which can enable people to see their minds and nature at the moment and save all living beings immediately. When Wenyi was in the Ming Dynasty, he went to Fujian and traveled all the way. He met Wenyi on the way back, and along the way he asked Wenyi for the true meaning of Buddhism. It happened that he was away from the temple and encountered Chu Nanfeng.

When I heard what Wen Yi said, Ming Wu thought for a moment, he lowered his head and said: "Ming Wu is ignorant, I hope the master can understand it."

Wen Yi smiled slightly: "The six senses of eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind arise from the six realms according to the six senses, and obtain the six consciousnesses, which are called the eighteen realms; the intention root is the source of these eighteen realms. When the eyes see lust, they are happy, they hear bad words, they are angry, they smell the fragrance of the nose, they love, they are sweet and delicious, and they think, and they are afraid when the body has touched them; joy, anger, love, thinking, and fear are all caused by the thoughts, so the "mind" has some laws and desire."

"The Dharma is like the right and the evil, and it becomes lust when you see beautiful colors, and it becomes greedy when you see gold and silver. It may be like my Buddha's compassion, suppressing evil and promoting good. When you see heavy rain fall, you spread your energy to make it not touch it. This is due to the Dharma that arouses my intention. Even if you see free self, it is not selfless."

Wen Yi looked at Mingwu in his contemplation, "There are also some monks who practiced asceticism, endured hunger, and rushed to seek selflessness, but they finally couldn't achieve selflessness..."

"There is no self in the body? The law has no self?" Ming Wu chanted, looking like he was not understanding.

"Amitabha, twenty years ago, when the old monk was traveling around, he saw an old man who fainted on the ground on Huzhou Road. He took her to the "Baofeng Temple" where she was waiting. When she woke up, the old monk was about to find out where she came from. Unexpectedly, when she saw the old monk and others, she cursed, saying that it was a monk who was false compassion."

"After many monks advised her, she told the truth. It turned out that she lost her husband in her early years and had two sons. One of them died on the battlefield in the army and the other one became a monk. She was old and sick, and she missed her beloved son in her heart. She wanted to see him and found him in the temple, but she knew that this monk would avoid him."

Ming Wu bows his head and goes: "Amitabha, sin, sin."

"The old man said again, how could he give porridge to other people, but he would not give him a drop of water to his mother, but he would not see him? You monks are not just compassionate? This is the six senses you seek? The equality of sentient beings... At that time, all the monks in the temple were silent for a while and didn't know how to answer."

Wen Yi stopped, with a solemn expression, and slowly said, "At that time, the old monk saw that the tree was a tree, neither big nor full. On the second day, he set off and went back to his hometown to visit his parents. From then on, once a year, like a friend of the Fangwai, until the death of the two elders." Chu Nanfeng had a solemn look on his face.

"Achieving the six senses purity, the cause and effect of life and death; the meaning of cessation is like the world owes debts and repays money. How can parents avoid being granted by their bodies? But as the old man said, sentient beings are equal... and treat their parents like ordinary donors, what's wrong? If the mind has no self, then there will naturally be no self in the Dharma, Amitabha Buddha."

Ming Wu also sang the Nobu Buddha's name, then closed his eyes and remained silent. Wen Yi, Chu Nanfeng knew that he had realized something, and he did not disturb him. After half a stick of incense, Ming Wufang opened his eyes and bowed to Wen Yi and bowed to him: "Ming Wu thanked the master for his advice."

When he looked up, Chu Nanfeng saw that his peaceful expression was seven-point solemn, and he knew that his cultivation had made great progress.

"All things are not fate, so how can you see them like illusions?" Wen Yi looked at Chu Nanfeng with a smile, "Did Mr. Chu see the old monk's martial arts cultivation?"

Chu Nanfeng did not expect Wen Yi to ask this question, and he was stunned. In Buddhism, there is a way of physical body, entering the Mingjiao to the Golden Body Realm, and there is also a way of moving the spiritual consciousness, and cultivating the spiritual consciousness to the Golden Body Realm. However, those who practice Buddhism are determined to eliminate the cause and effect of life and death, and practice martial arts and practice will not condense the fetal pills in the natal world, and they will become cocoons and bind themselves. Therefore, the Buddhist practice of using spiritual consciousness to enter the martial arts is the same as that of Mingjiao Realm, including valleys, foothills, mountainsides, and mountaintops.

Although Chu Nanfeng also studied Buddhist techniques, he was not proficient. However, he saw that Wen Yi's cultivation level should be on the top of the mountain of divine thoughts, which was comparable to his own pill. When he first met, he asked this question, but he thought it would be of profound meaning, but he did not dare to answer for the moment.

"I guess Mr. Chu thinks that the old monk has hidden his cultivation..." Wen Yi smiled when he saw him hesitating, and then said, "If it were said that when the old monk and Mingwu encounter rain, the soul consciousness had already reached this mountain temple, and the physical body and Mingwu have arrived here, then the spiritual consciousness will return to the body, the six consciousnesses will become clear, and the energy will be used to remove the rain, it will be difficult to make people believe...but it is indeed the case."

When you reach the Nascent Soul, your natal fetal elixir will be enlightened, and you will be able to realize the "mind state of mind". When you reach the realm of the Golden Body, your primordial spirit will be clear and clear, and you will also be able to "divine state of mind". Both of them can be separated from your body with your spiritual consciousness. However, you have never heard of people in the world at the top of the mountain of Divine Thoughts, and even when it rains, you should be more than a hundred feet away from this temple. Even if you are a perfect Nascent Soul, you cannot do it.

Mingwu met Wen Yi two days ago, but he was also suspicious of Wen Yi's cultivation level at the top of the mountain. Hearing this, he couldn't help but look at Chu Nanfeng, and both of them were shocked.

"Mingwu, you came from the Pure Land Sect of the Buddha, and used your mind to cultivate your mind and enter the Tao. I thought that I was obsessed with martial arts and had less than meticulous study of the true scriptures of the Buddha's Great Dharma. I have gained something after I was thinking and know my mind. I know it. I should know why the old monk could not achieve the golden body, but his soul could leave his body?"

Ming Wu was enlightened by Chu Nanfeng and entered the realm of golden body. His original mind was enlightened, and he thought about the dual cultivation of Pure Zen. After hearing Wen Yi’s question, a sudden light appeared in a daze: “Walking meditation? Forget the magical power of Zen?”

Wen Yi's face showed a compliment, "Buddhist disciples practiced meditation and entered into meditation, and had meditation. Those who meditated, eyes, ears, nose, tongue, and body, all five consciousnesses were gone, just like ordinary people entering a dream and their souls wandered in other realms, but their consciousness was not lost, and their souls were clear. Entering a dream was not a dream, just like the old monk just walked in the rain, and if there was no words to the old monk, the old monk would know it in one breath."

Chu Nanfeng knew that Buddhist martial arts were profound and profound. Since Emperor Taiwu of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Buddhism has experienced three Buddhist difficulties, and many Buddhist martial arts were lost. Just like the "Zen Forgetful Magic" that Mingwu said, he had never heard of it. However, he thought that he had not reached the realm of golden body, and his soul could be a hundred feet away from his body, and his heart was secretly shaking. Wen Yi was able to talk about his own martial arts and listened to him at this point, so he must have the intention of listening. Under doubts, he even listened intently.

"When the six consciousnesses are all clear, you will see that the six senses enter the six realms of consciousness and are disturbed by the six realms, eliminate the cause and effect of life and death, and strive to achieve the selflessness of the Dharma... and practice meditation and concentration into concentration, which is to eliminate the power of karma and cause and effect, and to achieve the selflessness of the body, just like the old monk just practiced meditation; but some people who wandered away from meditation but did not know it, but they were separated from the essence of meditation."

"The essence is the form, the soul consciousness is the spirit, and the form and spirit are both. Only then can the yin and yang be harmonious and open and close naturally. Yang is the main force to open and exit, and Yin is the main force to enter. If you make the samadhi incorrectly, it will be counterproductive; the body is Yang, and the soul belongs to Yin. If the body does not distinguish the six senses, the yang is originally moving and revolving, and the soul consciousness does not know the way back, but the yin is originally moving but moving outside, but the body and spirit are separated, so naturally it is impossible to see the wonder of the unity of man and nature."

Chu Nanfeng thought, but he thought that some monks could not move after entering into meditation, but were mistaken for being transformed by others, and even their physical bodies were destroyed, resulting in their souls being left unsupported; while their physical bodies were not present, and the six consciousnesses were not affected by the yin and yang divisions, it was difficult to understand the great Dharma... Thinking about what Wen Yi said, Chu Nanfeng began to ponder.

Wen Yi smiled slightly when he saw this, and said nothing. For a moment, he could only hear the sound of rain outside the temple. After a long time, when he heard the thunder, Chu Nanfeng was shocked and came back to his senses.

"Amitabha." Wen Yiheshi sang the Nobu Buddha's name and looked at Chu Nanfeng and said slowly: "With the cultivation of Chu's layman, he naturally knew that sitting in a state of "I forgot" rather than "I forgot about myself". It was like sailing in a sea of ​​clouds, and it could go thousands of miles with one move; but you must remember that it was a boat walking rather than a body movement, and it was a mind forgetting rather than a god forgetting."

Chu Nanfeng was shocked and heard Wen Yi say again: "This is to act outside the appearance, but also within the Dharma image."

But thinking about "Yang is the main force to open up and exit, and Yin is the main force to enter", then I can hear "outside the skin, within the Dharma image"; Chu Nanfeng, who had already realized something, thought of business, closed his eyes and led his qi to walk on the outer skin surface of the body, and felt that the pores were neither dry nor cold, and the yin and yang were harmonious. The natal fetal elixir consciousness that was warmed in the Tianguan suddenly became clear, and in an instant, everything was silent.

But the consciousness of consciousness emerges, attracting the energy of heaven and earth to flow freely on the surface of the skin, and the consciousness spreads the essence of the hundred meridians and meridians, and can already use one mind and two things. At this time, the body is caught in the five feet of the body, and gathers the energy of the internal and external things around the body. If you enter the hall and sit quietly, you will enter the state of the Nascent Soul.

Chu Nanfeng entered the "Ninth Soul" at this time, which was extremely dangerous, but with Wen Yi and Ming Wu's skills, if one of them had bad intentions towards him, he would definitely be seriously injured.

After he met Wen Yi, he listened to Wen Yi's sentences, and his actions were slow and guided, as if he had some transformation. Only after he realized the wonderful truth could he dare to enter the hall and enter the state of the Nascent Soul. Even so, he was still laying a line of defense for the Qi and defense within five feet of his body.

When Ming Wu suddenly realized in Xizhou, he would break the qi spread on the flesh and blood, and instead let the qi in his body be penetrated and the water would come naturally and enter the realm of golden body. If it was said to be dangerous, it would be when he broke through the true body technique.

After leaving Xizhou City, Ming Wuyi found a cave and meditated and adjusted his breath for ten days before he built the foundation of the Golden Body Realm. However, after being enlightened by Wen Yi, he was greatly benefited from the "Divine Realm Power" that he had become born after entering the Golden Body Realm.

Unlike the body path that Ming has no cultivation, Chu Nanfeng was enlightened, and his natal fetal pill consciousness echoed. This natural entry has a solid foundation, which is not comparable to the entry of the fetal pill consciousness in the future when he goes to retreat and awakens the fetal pill consciousness. Chu Nanfeng naturally does not want to miss such an opportunity. At this time, in addition to his spiritual consciousness, he has already entered the realm of forgetting me.

Wen Yi and Ming Wudan saw Chu Nanfeng's solemn expression, and the energy flowed around him. When he knew that he had entered the country, he moved to the wall where the beggar was; Ming Wu raised his hand and sealed the stunned beggar's acupoint, causing him to fall asleep.

Chu Nan Feng is all around, and the yin and yang are blending together. I only feel that my body is like a feather floating lightly with the air flow, falling on a mountain, and below is a vast sea. A refreshing fresh air blows, and the air is breathing in my lungs. But I feel that all the meridians are comfortable and I fall asleep leisurely. I dream that I was Lingxu on the surging sea surface, and suddenly the waves surged in my leisurely steps, and I was sent into the clouds.

Between the blue sky and white clouds, a colorful smoke floated around my body. The fragrance blew into my nose, and the qi and blood in my body were harmonious. I looked down with a clear and clear spirit, and I saw a person sitting on a mountain. In the hazy way, I saw that the appearance looked very much like me, so I jumped down the clouds, but it seemed like I woke up in a dream, and I saw only myself on the entire mountain.

I saw the sea water rising from the peak, but it just passed over the mountain. It slowly flowed to my side, lifted up my body, and as the waves rippled, my heart was so refreshed that I was satisfied.

Suddenly, a wave splashed, and Chu Nanfeng's heart rippled, and he came out of the middle realm. His spiritual consciousness suddenly became clear and clear. He opened his eyes. Under the moonlight, Ming Wu sat cross-legged at the entrance of the temple one meter away.

But seeing that Chu Nan's style is restrained, his expression is magnificent. He knew that he had accomplished his achievements and entered the realm of the Nascent Soul, and he lowered his head and said, "Amitabha, good, good. Mr. Chu was a genius of the world and had a perfect merit in more than twenty hours."

Chu Nanfeng had never expected that he could enter the Nascent Soul Realm steadily within such a time. He bowed to Ming Wu happily: "Thank you for your protection from the master."

With a glance, he saw the beggar leaning against the corner of the wall, looking at him with confusion, but Master Wenyi disappeared. Knowing that he must have left, he asked, "When will Master Wenyi leave?"

"After the rain stopped yesterday evening, the master went to Qingliangyuan, Jiangning."

Chu Nanfeng sighed in his heart. He met Wen Yi for the first time, but Wen Yi gave him some advice. He was naturally grateful. After hearing Ming Wu's words, he nodded and thought to himself that he would go to Qingliang Temple to thank him in the future.

Ming Wusi saw his thoughts and smiled slightly, "When the master left, he said that Mr. Chu would not have to take this opportunity in mind, but instead made the master more boundaries."

Chu Nanfeng was very thoughtful. After listening to Mingwu's words, he also understood his meaning. When Buddhism saves people, he also saves oneself. If he wants to repay others' kindness, the more he has become, the more he has become.

"Master Wenyi's teachings in the world are intended to get rid of the world and enlighten the mind, not to mention that Mr. Chu has a connection with my Buddhist sect... Amitabha, good, good." Mingwu continued to say.

Chu Nanfeng's heart moved. He was obsessed with Ma Xilan in this life. He had already had the idea of ​​searching for Ma Xilan for the rest of his life, but for a moment he was confused about the preaching of Ming Wu's fate with Buddha.

Ming Wu entered the Golden Body Realm, and saw Chu Nanfeng's fleeting look of surprise. He looked at the Tianguan on Chu Nanfeng's forehead. "Master Wenyi's eyes are like torches, and I don't know how to see Mr. Chu's natal fetal pill's spiritual consciousness; when the master entered the state of meditation and broke through, the master once spoke to the little monk. Because he saw that his fetal pill's spiritual consciousness had three parts of Buddha nature, he spoke to him to guide Mr. Chu into the country."

A person uses essence, qi and blood to condense the natal fetal pill, which naturally has the luck of a person who condenses the pill. Chu Nanfeng has followed Yi Wuwei in Taibai Academy since he was a child. In addition to having a murderous intention because of Ma Xilan, he is considered to be indifferent to the world. It is also appropriate to say that he has Buddha nature.

When Chu Nanfeng heard this, he smiled bitterly, but was surprised by Wen Yi's cultivation, and said, "I think Master Wen Yi has mastered the "sky eye power" and can see the human fetal elixir consciousness."

Ming Wu thought it was the same, so he nodded in agreement. He looked at the dawn and said, "I wonder why Mr. Chu came to this Wu Yue land?"

Chu Nanfeng was not inconvenient to tell the truth, but hesitated for a moment and said, "I have only arrived in the Wuyue land when I look for an old friend."

"Have you ever found it?"

Chu Nanfeng sighed and shook his head.

Ming Wu saw his helpless expression and said, "Have you ever found this old friend hidden in Wu and Yue?"

He said that he was very helpful in asking questions; he was self-satisfied with the literary and enlightenment, and realized that "the wonderful thing is to follow the flow". He saw Buddha everywhere in his eyes, but he wanted to enter the world to practice Zen.

"I don't know where she is hiding? I only know that she is on the shore of the lake in the mountains." Chu Nanfeng looked melancholy. At this time, he had regarded Mingwu as a friend of the outside world, and his expression did not deliberately hide it.

"The land on the shore of the lake in the mountains? This world..." Ming Wu was shocked, "The mountains are everywhere in the dynasties, how can we find this? Why did Mr. Chu be sure of this old friend in the lake in the mountains?"

Chu Nanfeng said sadly: "I was guided by a Buddhist monk and realized... There are fairy shadows in thousands of mountains and one water, and one water embraces thousands of mountains? Alas, it is difficult to understand."

Ming Wuwen said that he closed his eyes, pondered and said nothing, thinking that he wanted to realize the point of this thousand mountains and one river.

"It doesn't necessarily mean the water in the mountains, what if it is the mountain in the water?" But when a sound came from the west, the beggar leaning against the corner of the wall sat upright and said.

When Chu Nanfeng heard this, he was shocked, "The mountain in the water?"

The beggar, who looked dirt-looking and seemed to be over thirty years old, rubbed his eyes, "The beggar has seen many lakes, and there are many islands on the lake, surrounded by mountains..." Seeing Ming Wu and Chu Nanfeng looking at him, the beggar seemed to be conscious of something, and hurriedly pulled his hair with his hands to cover the forehead on his right.

When Chu Nanfeng and Ming Wuzai rubbed their eyes, they saw the word "thief" on his forehead. They thought they had violated the law and were arrested by the government and punished him. No wonder they were in their prime, but they begged for a living.

Chu Nanfeng thought carefully, but thought about the many lakes around Chu, and thought that Ma Xilan was on the lake island as the beggar said, so he stood up and bowed to the beggar: "Thank you, brother, for reminding me."

Turning to Mingwu, "Where is the Master's treasure temple?"

Ming Wu hesitated: "The little monk was precepted and returned to the "Baoguang Temple" in the state, but..."

I wanted to explain my current situation, but I felt that it was inappropriate, so I stopped talking. Chu Nanfeng thought that he was just traveling around to meditation and would definitely return to the temple in the future, so he nodded: "If you have free time in the future, you will definitely go to the Guibao Temple to visit. It is dawn. Let's take a step first and let's go."

Ming Wu smiled bitterly in his heart, stood by the temple gate and lowered his head and said, "Amitabha, good, good."

Chu Nanfeng looked at the beggar, sighed, took out some broken silver from his waist and placed it on the offering table, bowed to Ming Wu, and walked away quickly.
Chapter completed!
