Chapter 497

In the final analysis, practice is a unique pursuit.???    ?

Although there is often a level of teaching and learning between the immortal paths, there is a way of saying that, "The master leads the door and practices in person." "The disciple does not have to be inferior to the teacher, and the teacher does not have to be as good as the disciple." The teacher and the disciple have the same attainments, and ordinary arts should be impossible.

The talents and temperaments of the world are different, and they are naturally very different in the path of practice. The so-called "Looking from a horizontal perspective into a mountain, the side into a peak" is the same method, and each person has different understandings and sometimes they may come to completely different conclusions.

All kinds of the three realms are born from the yin and yang energy. The lonely yin does not grow, and the single yang does not grow. Therefore, the four spirits, Qilin, Phoenix, Pixiu, Xuanwu, etc. are all dominated by Yin and Yang, and Taoism also has a method of dual cultivation.

However, the transformation of yin and yang is after all, there are fewer ones in the same body and more in the different body. The dual cultivation method is just a way of communication and cannot replace one's own practice.

Confucius said, "There must be my teacher when three people walk, and choose the good ones and follow them." It means that the way of practice can learn from others' strengths, rather than one's own strengths, which can be taught to others. It also said, "The people can use it, but not to know it." This means that the results of education may not meet expectations.

Since the country's fortunes have not competed and the people's livelihood has withered, those with ambition have often attributed to Confucian ethics because of the excellent artifacts of Taixi. Looking back at the time when various schools of thought contend in the Warring States Period, the Mohist school also had the momentum to resurrect the soul by resurrecting the corpse.

Although the demise of the Mohist family was not detailed, the gangs in later generations were mostly the Mohist family. When the monarchy was abandoned, the ones replaced were in the association.

The associations can often gather like-minded people to seek real interests. Therefore, they can form a strong group in the era of equal rights.

Mozi won the world by following the top and making a profit, and only a hundred or dozens of people could go through fire and water, regardless of death. This is of course the greatness of Mozi's personality. However, such organizations often take the will of the leader as their will. Once the leader dies, they become a mob. The party members have no unique practice and no firm ethics. The Mo family disappeared shortly after the split, and the lack of true teachings has a lot to do with it.

In ancient times, the true teachings of the master were called the successor of the robe and bowl. There was only one such successor of the robe and bowl, and sometimes there was no unique knowledge. It was impossible for a group of people to receive the true teachings of the sage.

The society and religion are different in appearance and reality. It is just that one follows the will of the leader and the other respects the will of the gods. The gods cannot express their will and can only be conveyed by monks.

Mo Zichang spoke of heavenly ambition and valued virtuousness. In fact, he was rich in religious spirit. The difference is that the purpose of religious practice is mostly to follow the death, and the associations are committed to winning the interests of the present world.

Mozi also said that love is not an attack, but isn’t it a very high-profile discussion and gentle and beautiful. Confucius said, “Skillful words and despicable words are rare and kind.” Perhaps the people in the party also knew that his so-called ideal was to draw cakes on paper, but it was not so easy to touch people’s hearts. Religious people talk about heaven and Pure Land, and they are not lofty, but ordinary people always need such a kind of sustenance. Moreover, the party members have no noble ambitions, but they just want to lose their potential and spend time on food and clothing.

Confucius said, "A gentleman is not a party." If a person has unique practice, he will naturally be able to be arrogant but not in a mess. Even if there are thousands of people, I will go there. Why should I be more important than having teachers and friends?

Yun Qingsu's breathing technique is a qi refining method recorded in the Tianze Taoist Sutra. Ming Qin wanted to teach this technique to Xiao Jing. When things came to an end, he realized the difficulty of teaching.

Confucius said, "Yan Hui is not a helper, and he is displeased with everything I say." Yan Hui is Confucius' most proud disciple. Confucius can understand everything he says, but what makes Confucius feel a little regretful is that he cannot use Yan Hui's feedback to achieve the purpose of teaching and learning.

However, it is difficult for more masters and apprentices to achieve this state of understanding, and some even play the piano with cows, making it difficult to establish communication.

Practicing Taoism and qi cultivation includes some mysterious experiences. Many immortal masters become saints, but they may not be good teachers. The disciples of saints do not have to be saints. First, the disciples do not have that kind of unique practice. Second, saints may not be good at teaching.

‘Learn from the best, you can only get it’. Relatively speaking, it is still crucial to find a master of greatness. It is impossible for a teacher to teach a master of greatness without a profound cultivation. In other words, it must not be the master of the teacher. It is the disciple who has a private idol and a unique enlightenment.

In general, teaching apprentices still requires some skills. In addition to the teacher's own cultivation and language ability, it is best to teach according to their aptitude, which can maintain some traditions in the academies of Song and Ming dynasties.

Xiao Mi asked Mingqin to teach her Taoist skills again and again. Mingqin refused to agree that it was because she had no confidence in her own practice, and the other hand, it would inevitably take a lot of effort to teach outstanding disciples.

The education in the fairy world is like herding sheep. In comparison, the talent is not as good as before. In ancient times, the status of heaven, earth, king, teacher and teacher is undoubtedly highly admired. Now teachers' reputation is getting worse, and fundamentally speaking, it is just because they only know how to imitate the Thai education mechanism and lose the traditional educational spirit.

Xiao Jing had an old charm in her body, which could endanger her life at any time. Ming Qin had to drive the duck to the shelves and tried to teach her some methods of refining Qi. However, Xiao Jing had no foundation and was ignorant of the matter of practicing Taoism. She let her speak dry mouth but had little effect.

Mingqin realized that Xiaojing was too poor, so he started with meditation teaching instead.

Although Xiaojing listened to Mingqin's explanation very patiently, she knew nothing about Taoist terms and was inevitably confused and drowsy.

Xiao Jing sat cross-legged, his eyes slightly closed, and he concentrated in a state of concentration. After a while, Mingqin saw her eyelashes trembling and seemed to want to open her eyes to peek. He couldn't help but frown and shook his head and said, "Forget it, I'd better teach you to recognize the acupoint first."

Xiaojing opened her eyes as dark as vaguely painted, spit out her little tongue, grabbed Mingqin's arm and smiled: "Brother, am I too stupid?"

"You have only been studying for an hour. Is there anything stupid? Just study hard. It's not that easy to find a sense of qi." Mingqin smiled and comforted.

Xiao Jing said lightly, and said with a pretty face tense, "I will be very serious. Brother, let's recognize the acupuncture."

Recognizing acupuncture is also a necessary skill for practicing Taoism. There are more than 700 acupuncture points in the human body, and it is difficult to master the mystery without hard work. However, for refining qi, many acupuncture points are irrelevant. Mingqin wants her to find the qi feeling earlier, but she does not want to spend too much effort on recognizing acupuncture points, so she just briefly mentions it when it needs explanation. Moreover, there is a difference between men and women, and it seems a bit embarrassing to point fingers on the body.

"This is Baihui, Shenting, Sun, Emen..."

Mingqin said while pointing his head and neck. Xiaojing gestured according to his appearance. Mingqin grabbed her jade hand and carefully corrected it. After finishing the key points on the face, she couldn't help but sweat. Xiaojing sometimes stretched out her fingers and pressed them on his face, but Mingqin couldn't stop her. Although she was much younger, her figure was delicate and plump, as if she was ripe fruit.

The two sat opposite each other and Xiangze smelled slightly. He even felt the urge to fill his hands and feet.

"I've finished learning. Is this quite simple? Brother, let's continue." Xiaojing was excited and shouted with a smile.

"It's almost dawn, let's go someday."

Ming Qin thought it would be better to find another person to teach Xiaojing. It is not a very advanced skill to recognize acupoints and refine Qi. He didn't need to do it himself. He originally wanted to guide Xiaojing to get faster, but if he didn't use spiritual treasures like Bimuyu, there was actually no shortcut. There were too many skills that could teach his disciples better than him.

Xiaojing looked up at the window. Due to heavy rain, the sun would come out later than usual. The window paper was dark and it was impossible to see that it was going to dawn.

"Is Xiaojing not learning well? Brother is unwilling to teach me anymore?" Xiaojing looked at him nervously and said aggrievedly.

"Don't get me wrong." Mingqin smiled dryly, "This is different for men and women. It's not convenient to point fingers. I'll find a friend to teach you tomorrow."

"If you want to find someone else, I won't learn it." Xiao Jing snorted, looking very angry, and said with a slightly red eye: "Brother, you are right and wrong. Didn't you say that the memories you have forgotten are as illusory as a dream?"

Ming Qin was stunned for a moment. Xiaojing's amnesia was limited to herself. She was Yang Guanyi's wife and always an unchangeable fact. Even though the two had the name of brother and sister, they still needed to take into account some influence. Moreover, Ming Qin was full of energy and let her continue to be so obsessed, she didn't know if she would do something extraordinary.

"Brother, take me away."

Xiaojing suddenly grabbed Mingqin's clothes tightly and said with anticipation on his face.

"Xiao Jing, we are brothers and sisters. There is no shame in the world, so there is no need to elope."

Ming Qin was ridiculous and terrified. He came to Dongyuan out of the invitation of Yang Zaisi and Han Caiwei. Although she was very touching in helping Xiaojing, it was also because she was Yang Zaisi's sister-in-law. If she kidnapped her without a sound, wouldn't she betray others?

Moreover, he is in love with Xiao Jing, only courtesy, and has the status of brother and sister. He has no reason to fly far away.

"Does my brother want me to stay and be the daughter-in-law of the Yang family?"

Xiaojing had an inexplicable fear of the stranger Yang Guanyi. No one except Mingqin wanted to believe it.

"Don't worry. I promise you that you will not force you to be Yang Guanyi's wife before you recover your memory. I think the eldest lady and the head of the Yang family will also understand you."

Ming Qin stroked her shoulders and comforted her warmly. Since Xiao Jing recognized him as her brother, she also had the moral integrity of protecting her. Ming Qin felt that this request was not an exaggeration, and Yang Guanyi was very cold to Xiao Jing. Could it be that he would be very attentive now?

Xiao Jing shrugged a little when she heard this, curled up in Mingqin's arms and said, "I only have my brother to rely on. If you don't care about me, Xiao Jing will have no hope."

"No, I'm sure you are a girl." Mingqin hugged her delicate body and said in a complicated mood.

"Brother, let's continue to teach me to recognize my acupoints."

Xiao Jing left a thought and was in a good mood. She sat up straight and looked at him with a smile.

"Okay, this is the Danzhong point, Jiuwei... Juque, Shenque... This is Qihai, Guanyuan..."

Mingqin explained the direction of the big acupoint on his chest along his chest abdomen. He looked at Xiao Jing with a serious look, and couldn't help feeling slightly cramped, his eyes drooping slightly, and he didn't dare to stare at her.

"Qihai... what's behind Guan Yuan?" Xiaojing asked with his eyes blinking.

"This is Yingchuan, Huagai, Zigong, Yutang..." Ming Qin casually thought about how to push away this entangled errand.

"Brother, talk slowly. What is it?"

These acupoints are all between the square inch of the chest, so Xiao Jing remembers a lot. After gesturing for a while, he was completely unaware of the key points.

"Brother, where is the Ancestral acupoint?"

"The fifth rib."

Mingqin glanced at her full chest, thinking that it was indeed not easy to find.

"Speak to me, where is the fifth one."

Xiaojing did not avoid suspicion and grabbed his palm and pressed it into his chest.

Ming Qin was slightly surprised, and a fire rose quietly. He lit her fingertips on her sternum a few times, and felt a numbness.

Suddenly, there was a clatter behind him. Yang Zaisi pushed open the door, reached into half of his head, and said with an ugly expression: "What are you doing?"

Ming Qin felt a little weak, and quickly withdrew his palm, his heart pounding.

Xiaojing was very calm, tidied up her wrinkled dress, and said as if nothing had happened: "Brother is teaching me to recognize my acupoints, what can I do?"

"Qinzhi, come out."

Yang Zaisi had no choice but to hold the mirror and looked at Mingqin and greeted him lightly.

Mingqin said oh, and told Xiaojing: "You can review these key acupoints a few times first. I'll talk to the young lady about something."

"She can look very fierce, you have to be careful. Bad brother, who will make you change your mind? You're in trouble."

Although Xiaojing lost some of her memories, she knew a little about the affairs of men and women. Seeing Ming Qin's distracted appearance, she found it very interesting and wanted to make some tricks, but she didn't expect that Yang Zaisi would hit her right away.

"Little girl, I'll deal with you again when I turn around."

Ming Qin was puzzled and felt that his face could not be kept alive. The false voice was intimidated, and Xiao Jing smiled and disregarded him.

Mingqin followed out and carefully closed the door. He saw Yang Zaisi leaning on the dusty chair with his arms around him, thinking about nothing but joy or anger.

She saw that Xiaojing trusted Mingqin very much and hoped that Mingqin could explain her memory clearly and help me enlighten her. Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, she didn't see Mingqin come out to discuss with her.

After sleeping for almost the whole day, she caught the heavy rain and thunder again, and it continued. She wanted to check out how Luo Junwu and Yang Lian arranged the mansion. The outside was so dark that it was timid. She suddenly envied the amnesia-lost mirror.

She recalled the reason why Xiaojing decided that Ming Qin was his elder brother, and she was quite conscious. When Xiaojing was just taken back to the house by Yang Guanyi, she was always depressed and occasionally had some abnormal behavior. Later, she found out that she had an older brother and had a very close relationship. Yang Guanyi wanted to help her find it, but Xiaojing couldn't tell me why.

Yang Guanyi sent someone to investigate the origin of Xiao Jing, but he was always clueless. Over time, his thoughts faded.

Since the Yang family's accident, Xiao Jing was placed under house arrest by Yang De in Mingyue Tower, frightened and exhausted. Although Yang Zaisi came to rescue him, he was threatened by Ma Sheng and could hardly protect himself. (To be continued.)
