Overshadowing the Sky: Empress Proud of the World

Chapter 13 Questions and Answers
Under Yao Guang's guidance, Nannan and her party sat on the futon one by one.

Nannan looked at the surrounding environment curiously, but found a simple futon in the middle, and secretly guessed that it was where the lecturer was.

At this moment, it was just dawn, and some other disciples entered the hall one after another. Taking the futon in the middle as the axis, they sat down and meditated with their eyes closed.

It was the first time for Nannan to participate in such an occasion, and she was excited, anticipating, and a little nervous.

She watched the disciples around her meditate with their eyes closed, exhaling vigor, and she also imitated it decently.

A calm and majestic figure silently emerged from the futon in the center, it was Lin Xuan.

He glanced around, frowning.Why do you feel that the number of people is less than last time?

He immediately shook his head, although the Tao has something to do but often does not do it, if you have to force them to do everything, it will be easy to backfire.

Lin Xuan glanced at Nannai, who was sitting cross-legged on the futon with her eyes closed, and under the influence of the surrounding disciples, she also entered a state of sedation.

"master."

Seeing that the master had arrived, Yao Guang stepped forward to salute, the latter nodded, he was quite satisfied with this big disciple.If it is said that he seldom gets angry with anyone, Yao Guang is the first one.

Seeing movement in the hall, the disciples opened their eyes one after another, only to find that the master with big copper bell eyes was sitting upright in the center, and all of them shrank their necks like mice seeing a cat.

Seeing this, Lin Xuan was quite amused, but his heart moved, he scanned the audience, and asked:
"Stone is strong, and water can be used in caves. The stone is damaged but the water is not. This is a phenomenon that can be seen everywhere in nature, but does anyone know how the soft water can wear the boulder?"

He was visiting friends recently and he was in a good mood, so he tried his best to soften his tone, but unfortunately, because his voice was too rough, even Yao Guang felt his head buzzing.

The entire hall was completely silent, and a needle could be heard falling.All the disciples bowed their heads in thought, for fear of pointing at themselves, Yao Guang saw this, stepped forward and replied:
"There is nothing weaker than water in the world, but no one can overcome the strong. Water nourishes all things, like the way to transform all things, so the softness of water is in line with the way, so it is invincible and invincible. Even if the rock is tough for thousands of years, it will still permeate it."

Lin Xuan nodded and said:

"That's right, everything in the world is opposite and complements each other, from one side to the other. Too strong will make you weak, and too weak will make you strong. Therefore, the weak can overcome the strong, and the soft can overcome the strong. If you understand this way, you can do the opposite in front of the strong." In practice, use the weak to overcome the strong, and use softness to overcome the strong."

Nannan was clever in her heart, and immediately understood what Lin Xuan wanted to express.

All the disciples are afraid of Lin Xuan, because they think Lin Xuan is strong, and they are weak, and the weak cannot overcome the strong, so they feel fear in their hearts.However, Lin Xuanqiao used the example of water dripping through a stone in nature to explain to everyone the principle of using the weak to overcome the strong, alleviating fear, and it will be of great benefit to their future practice.

Nannan's small mouth is slightly raised, and Master Lin looks carefree and scary, but he is actually a delicate person.

Yaoguang answered well, but it doesn't mean that others can answer well.Lin Xuan then asked a disciple next to him, the latter was stuttering, watching the master's face gradually flushed, his anger gradually accumulated, and his voice gradually became inaudible like a mosquito.

Until it was completely quiet, the atmosphere in the air was a little anxious, this person secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, but he didn't even dare to lift his head.

Before the breath was over, Lin Xuan's deafening roar suddenly sounded like thunder in the hall, shaking everyone's ears, the roof was about to be lifted three feet high, and the rubble trembled three times.

"The words are not expressive, stumbling, ignorant and incompetent, what kind of system is it! "Yin Yin Lun" has an extraordinary origin. It taught me the ancient power to observe the change of the sun and the moon, and the transformation of yin and yang. It is rumored that it had a great chance. When I was able to read a certain passage in the "Taiyin Xianjing", I was greatly inspired, and then wrote this sutra."

"Although compared with the Taiyin Immortal Sutra, this Sutra is extremely shallow, but after all, it is written by the great powers of the ancient times. It uses the way of observing the sky and explains the principles of Yin and Yang, which is of great reference significance for practitioners. And you, you can go hand in hand with Yin and Yang You can mess up the basic principles of the scriptures, and if you sit in seclusion in the future, you will go crazy, and you will lose your body and spirit. You are really ignorant! You will be punished for ten years and copy this sutra [-] times!"

Ten thousand...times?The disciple wanted to bump himself to death.He was really lazy, sneaked down the mountain with a few other classmates, and went to the world of mortals to have fun for a few days.

If he had known this, he wouldn't have said anything.

Nannan was thoughtful about the key points in Lin Xuan's words just now. The old monkey said earlier that one flower is one world, and one leaf is one bodhi.Every living individual actually contains a world in his body, using the endless potential of his own small world to counter the myriad of variables in the big world.

Since the big world outside the body is in an endless cycle of yin and yang, is it the same in the small world inside the body? There are two opposing forces that maintain the balance in the body. If it is out of balance, is it the same as what the elder said just now? Obsessed?

Nannan told Lin Xuan about the confusion in her heart, and the latter showed admiration, nodded, and replied:
"That's right. Everything and everything goes back to its root. The Xuanmu Gate is the root of heaven and earth, and all things are born in this heaven and earth. Therefore, the root of all things is also the gate of Xuanmin, the gate of life.

"Ordinary life wants to maintain the stability of the door of life. It only needs to work hard and adapt to the weather. Cover in spring, freeze in autumn, cool in summer, and hide in winter. If something goes wrong in a certain link, it will manifest as disease or disaster. In fact, there is a problem with the door of life. It can be recovered by recuperating, or seeking medical treatment.

"But for monks, the door of life means the door of practice. With the continuous opening of the door of life, a steady stream of potential will be released. These potentials do not come from the outside world, but are completely created by the monk himself. Transformed into a small world, it clashes with the outside world. The Dao does not allow monks to have the strongest strength, and the monks fight against the Dao to prove their own way and to prove the way.

"During this process, the gate of life sprays out the yin and yang qi, forming a barrier to protect the body. If it is out of balance, the ten thousand ways invade, it is to go crazy, and the damage caused by it may not be recovered for life.

"It is rumored that the two holy emperors of the human race, the yin and yang, took one of the yin and yang avenues of their own bodies, and cultivated them to the extreme.

"It can be seen from this that when the practice reaches a certain level, the Tao in the body does not need the protection of the wheel of life, but will be tempered by ten thousand ways, and those who are amazingly talented will even face the test of a sea of ​​​​thunder, which is a catastrophe.

"For you, this day is too early. Although the way outside the body conflicts with the way inside the body, it is by no means irreconcilable. You can even use something outside for your own use. Today I will teach a formula, which will help When you are meditating, absorb the essence of the sun and the moon, so as to mobilize the yin and yang in the body, form a barrier, and nurture your own way."

After imparting the formula, Lin Xuan taught the introductory class of Nannan the basic information about the major realms of the human body and the surrounding geographical location. Everyone is basically a child from the mortal world, so they listened very carefully. .

Nannan suddenly felt that the world was so big.

According to Elder Lin Xuan, there are five regions in the world they are in, namely the Eastern Desolation, Western Desert, Zhongzhou, Nanling, and Beiyuan.Both are vast and mysterious, and even monks cannot cross them by themselves.

Even in the central part of the Eastern Wilderness where they are located, there are countless famous mountains and rivers, and small cities like Yancheng are even more numerous and innumerable.The vastness of the territory is astonishing.

Seeing the stunned faces of the children, Lin Xuan was very satisfied, and added:
"Ordinary people can't get out of the vast mountains where they live in their entire lives, and monks can't easily cross the domain. There are countless such mountains in one domain. There are as many such domains in the Eastern Wilderness. There are people out there. , there is a sky beyond the sky, if you can study hard and practice hard, one day you will also be able to overlook this great river and stand on the top of the clouds."
