The sword is the devil

Chapter 11 Peace and Prayer 2
On the first night in the Daofu Pavilion, Hou Tiao spent it in such a muddleheaded manner. On the second day, when he met the bouldering old man again, the old man felt a little embarrassed.

"I'm sorry, little friend Hou, I know you have something to ask, and I'm here to explain it clearly to you, but today we don't drink alcohol, let's drink tea."

Yesterday he brought a jug, but today he brought a set of tea sets, all exquisite, he is a person who knows how to enjoy life.

"What do you want to know? Even if we are all at the end of our lives, seeking the Tao does not depend on the occasion; but, don't ask me how to achieve longevity, I don't know this myself."

Hou Tiao was not in a hurry, he boiled water and made tea, and when the fragrance of the tea wafted in front of the two of them, he asked indifferently:
"No, it's just that I don't know much about the so-called peace and prayer, and I want to know what kind of ghost gate this is, which will make many practitioners turn pale when they hear about it?"

The bouldering old man took a sip of tea comfortably, which cleared up his hangover mind a lot.

"Hehe, I was thinking too much. That's right, little friend, what you lack in your cultivation is the most basic things, the most common sense. I'm afraid you can't ask too advanced questions. The two of us are on the same plate. One asks superficially, the other answers roughly, which is just right."

It can be seen that the bouldering old man still enjoys this feeling of being a teacher, because he has just entered the realm of Peiyuan, and in this life he has no chance to teach others except to fool those children; Cai will step into Peiyuan, and this kind of qualification is very limited compared to Hou Tiao.

"The so-called Anhe prayer is actually a kind of sacrifice to put it bluntly. It is no different from the mountain demon and water demon offering boys and girls to obtain the awakening of blood. Pray."

Obviously, the old man Baoshi has a deep resentment towards Taoism, which is also the consistent attitude of casual cultivators towards orthodoxy, which is very common.

"The purpose of praying is to express one's appeal through such a ritual thing, and to ask God for help in the practice of the praying person... Such a prayer is not only safe and state-owned, but also other countries or forces. Existence is the ability that only belongs to infants and immortals, and others cannot."

Hou Tiao was a little confused, "God is illusory, can something really come down? Or do you just want peace of mind? It's not good to use the power of a country for private use, isn't it?"

The old man Baoshi spoke convincingly. After decades of practicing and struggling, his knowledge of the true meaning of Taoism is limited, but there are countless gossips.
"There are real things! But it's not guaranteed. Sometimes the prayers are not answered, this is an empty prayer; sometimes it will send down magic weapons, skills, strange materials or other treasures? It's not that you can get what you want, but God wants What is given is what is given.

As for the private use of public equipment you mentioned, there is no such problem. Old gods like Yingbian are all Taoist giants and the lords of a country. They get benefits. In fact, the disciples and grandchildren below will not hide their personal interests .

For example, this Anhe prayer was written by Anhe Guoshi, the Taoist old god Xiao Zhenren. He felt that the time had come, and Anhe was in danger, so he wanted to use such a ceremony to add a little confidence to Anhe Daomen. More and more rampant monsters and ghosts. "

Waiting bitterly, he caught up with a good time, "You mean, we are part of this dedication?"

The old man bouldering nodded, this topic was really sad to talk about, "Man is a knife, I am a fish, what can I do?
The monster clan sacrifices to the sky and needs to kill, which is the characteristic of blood inheritance; the Taoist sect is very hypocritical, what they sacrifice is not life, but the spiritual root bestowed by heaven! "

"Heaven-given spiritual root?" It was the first time Hou Tiao had heard of this concept.

"Yes, it's actually the practitioner's ability to feel the inspirations of the heavens and the earth! In this world, those who can feel the inspirations have great opportunities and great fortunes, which are rare among mortals. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is bestowed by heaven.

Every cultivator is a godsend, and Taoism is to donate the black sheep among these gods, in order to win the favor of heaven, to prove this orthodox heart of protecting the people, and to get some rewards by the way. "

Hou Tiao was thoughtful, and the bouldering old man snorted again,
"This is the origin of Taoism's prayer. The old man has studied Taoism for decades, and he dare not say he is proficient in Taoism, but he can still see people's hearts clearly; Taoism's rhetoric may not be black and white, but there must be some inaccuracies and paradoxes; but Which of them is true and which is false, it is difficult to distinguish, and it is useless to guess if you do not reach that level."

"I have been seeking the Tao for several years, and I have not even seen the door of the Taoist school. I have become a black sheep... Old man, I think that the people in the building are basically casual cultivators, and there are very few people who are truly Taoist. Is this also understandable? Maybe it’s a kind of exclusion?”

The bouldering old man caressed his beard and smiled. This little guy is still too young. Although he sees things keenly, he always starts from the ordinary point of view, but he has no Taoist vision; not far.

"No, I've talked about the spiritual root granted by heaven before, but in this world there is also a kind of spiritual root called false spiritual root, which refers to those who are born with the cultivation resources to rely on.

They have elders and families to rely on, resources and wealth to rely on, and a path to practice; food is spiritual food, learning is the way, seeing real people, such a growth environment, the possibility of eventually realizing inspiration is higher than that of ordinary people It is more than ten times higher than a hundred times higher.

Once they step into the path and enter the pulsation, who can tell whether they are the spiritual root gods?Or is it acquired?So it is called the false spiritual root.

Among these people, there are both true spiritual root granters and postnatal birthers, but they are not like those of us who are scattered and wild. Which one is not a fluke?
Fortunately, it is a gift from God!So, we are not reconciled! "

The old man Baoshi talked about the emotional part, and he was full of energy, "The Taoist prayers in this world have always existed, and have a long history. After countless such prayers, the Taoists found that it seems that offering the real spiritual root given by heaven, the effect is greater Is it better than the fake spiritual root?

As a result, we loose cultivators are in great misfortune. As long as there is a slight mistake, we may be offered by the Taoist sect; even the evil of the evil sect. , Regardless of 21, if you are arrested, it will be a human tragedy.

The Taoist sect is hypocritical and contrived, and the Demon sect is brutal and straightforward, only suffering from us people..."

Hou Tiao was speechless, "No wonder they like people like me..."

The bouldering old man stood up, paced back and forth, to calm down the gloom in his heart, "Of course I like it! As far as the spiritual root of heaven is concerned, your pulsating minor repair is no different from those bigu Peiyuan masters! In the eyes of God, they are both Ants, there is no difference!"

The two were sick and sympathetic to each other, and they were saddened by their sighs. This time they went to the desperate situation together, and they couldn't help feeling sorry for each other.

Exactly,

The old man's face has the color of rivers and seas, and his mouth melts ice and snow.The same guest who has not returned from the west wind burns incense and boils tea for the Double Ninth Festival.
