No taboos in the world

Chapter 317 Kowloon Law
Law.

Originally it referred to the country's laws, decrees, rules and regulations.

Within the Taoist system, the above-mentioned countries can be replaced by heaven and earth.

The laws of a country are made by those who govern it, while the laws of heaven and earth are created naturally.

Those who are in charge of national laws can punish the people accordingly.

Those who control the laws of heaven and earth can harness the power of heaven and earth.

In other words, laws and orders are the way of the Tao.

The reason for the change of name is that the law is more mandatory, faster and more responsive.

It may be a bit of an exaggeration to say that the Way of Law and Order can have a complete process and many prerequisites like Taoism, or it can complete the casting as quickly and swiftly as a command.

for example.

"fire."

As soon as a word came out of his mouth, flames slowly rose in Hong Chen's hands.

The flames do no harm to me, so they look fake.

But Hong Chen pulled up a piece of dry grass from the ground, brought it close to the flame, and lit it up in an instant.

"Junior brother, what kind of magic is this? Why have I never seen it before?" Jingjing, who was passing by, stopped and looked at his burning palm.

Hong Chen glanced at her and said, "Didn't you hear it?"

Jingjing was stunned: "What did you hear?"

Hong Chen clenched his fist, put away his palm, and after opening it again, he whispered, "Water."

There was no doubt that water quickly condensed in his palm.

The water did not flow directly to the ground under the action of gravity, but condensed into a transparent water droplet, which slowly expanded in volume and always allowed him to control it.

Jingjing was so shocked when she saw this that she couldn't close her mouth.

But Hong Chen frowned.

"Junior brother, you...you have practiced Taoism to the point where you can get whatever you want, why do you still look dissatisfied?" Jingjing was puzzled.

Hong Chen shook his head and said, "First, it's too slow. Second, do you know what I was thinking just now?"

"What are you thinking?"

"I wanted a stream to flow directly from my hand, but..." Hong Chen let go, and the water ball fell to the ground and was quickly absorbed by the land. "Look, what can this little water do?"

"Uh……"

Jingjing was speechless for a moment. After thinking for a while, she said, "But shouldn't cultivation be gradual? Although you can only make a water ball now, you may be able to create a stream directly in the future. Junior brother, you are so smart. Master said that you can even summon a dragon, so what's a stream, right?"

Hearing this, Hong Chen raised his eyebrows: "If you say so, then I seem to have suddenly had an inspiration."

Standing up, Hong Chen walked to the center of the yard and slapped the head of the big goose that was running towards him with its neck stretched out.

"If you dare to pick on me again, I'll have my senior sister stew you."

Jingjing smiled and said, "Junior brother, that is a goose that is specially kept for laying eggs!"

"It's okay. I don't like goose eggs."

Jia Le, who hid behind the door and dared not speak but could only peek: But I love it!
Hong Chen opened his arms and faced the sky.

"The Black Water Dragon sits in the Divine Palace!"

A faint dragon roar spread from within the body. The deep and majestic voice lifted the spirits of Jingjing and Jiale who were watching.

The small courtyard, which was directly exposed to the midday sun, seemed to be a little more damp.

Next door, Master Ikkyu heard the noise and came out to watch the fun.

Looking at the cloudless sky, Hong Chen paused and said, "Rain!"

Suddenly, the sky was still, and a water ball suddenly formed in his hand, at least three to five times faster than before. After a while, although the excessive water flow was still gathered together, the liquid water became distorted after the volume expanded too much.

"Wow, little junior brother, you are so awesome. I just finished saying it and you did it!" Jingjing was shocked and also happy for Hong Chen.

But Hong Chen still looked worried.

"Senior Sister, I just talked about rain!"

"Ah this..."

At this time, Master Ikkyu, who was watching the show, came out and said with a smile, "Haha, Ah Chen, how did you come up with the idea of ​​using a word to pray for rain?"

Hong Chen turned around and said, "Master, I feel that if water can gather out of thin air, then why can't rain be gathered? Even if it only rains on my head?"

Master Yixiu shook his head slowly: "Silly child, water is water, rain is rain, you think they are the same, but if we talk about the scope of magic, they are not the same thing at all."

As soon as these words were spoken, Hong Chen suddenly understood.

His thinking was simple, probably because he had received a complete education from elementary school to university, so he subconsciously thought that rain was also water.

However, in a world with gods, rain is more than just water.

It is life, destruction, reward and punishment, and ultimately, it is a kind of authority.

Whether it will rain or not is not determined by how heavy the clouds are or how much water vapor there is.

If the gods say there is, then there is. If the gods say there isn’t, then even if there are dark clouds overhead, not a single drop will fall.

In order to circumvent this rule, one must use Taoism.

Moreover, this method can only be implemented in places where it is not strictly prohibited by the Heavenly Court.

"Achen, you should know the Taoist rain-praying spell?"

"know."

"Why don't you try it?"

"But what I want to do is not to pray for rain." Hong Chen was puzzled.

Master Yixiu said with a smile: "Don't worry, don't worry. I know you are not praying for rain, but if you want it to rain today, you should at least take a look at how the rain is made, right? But since you don't want to, why don't I try to pray for rain, and you take a good look?"

"Will this be too much trouble, Master?"

Master Ikkyu waved his hand and said, "It's no trouble." After that, he sat down on the ground, clasped his hands together, and after his smile faded, his whole body suddenly had a solemn and dignified aura.

Immediately, a series of mantras came out of his mouth, the Sanskrit sound spread, and it also made people feel peaceful.

After all, Hong Chen had been to Shaolin Temple before, so he must be familiar with Master Ikkyu's spell.

When Buddhists pray for rain, they often use the Nectar Mantra of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva.

As the spell spread, the originally cloudless sky suddenly turned dim.

There were no sudden dark clouds, nor loud lightning and thunder.

pat!

A drop of rain suddenly hit Hong Chen's cheek.

Then, more and more rain fell, and soon a refreshing sun shower fell over the yard.

Jingjing and Jiale, two people without magical powers, were naturally amazed and even shouted loudly.

But what Hong Chen saw might be a little different.

The divine eyes hidden between the eyebrows had opened naturally at some point, and what was reflected in the pupils was not the sun shower, but the rules of heaven and earth or the way of nature represented by this rain.

The effectiveness of Taoist spells in the mortal world does not always have a direct connection with the gods, because the gods are not that idle.

The names of gods recited by the caster are either really for the gods to respond or to borrow their strength, a typical example being the art of summoning gods. However, even when summoning gods, it is not always possible to alert the corresponding gods.

Secondly, and most of the time, it is just to show respect to the gods who hold the power of this path. Although they may not look at you, it is best for you to show respect when they look at you. Hong Chen looked from day to night, and from the rising of the moon to the sunset.

The next day, it was sunny.

"Tell me, when will Junior Brother wake up?"

At the dinner table, Jiale slurped his porridge while looking outside curiously.

A night passed, and Hong Chen remained standing in the yard in the same posture. Not only did he not move his feet at all, he didn't even blink.

In order to avoid disturbing Hong Chen's comprehension, Jingjing and Jiale followed Master Ikkyu's instructions and locked up all the chickens, ducks, geese and two pigs that were previously free-range.

Jingjing rested her chin on her hand, biting her chopsticks, with a hint of worry between her eyebrows: "I don't know either. My master said that this state is hard to come by. Three or two days is not fast, and ten days or half a month is not slow."

Jia Le was shocked: "Ah? The little junior brother just stood there like this without drinking water or eating. Can his body bear it?"

Jingjing also shook her head in confusion: "My master said it's okay, but I think the same as you. Who can bear not drinking water or eating? Besides, my junior brother didn't even blink an eye."

“Hmm…” Jiale thought for a moment and said, “Do you think it’s possible that he has magical powers, so he doesn’t have to eat or drink water. After all, that’s what the myths I’ve heard before say. Those gods and immortals all eat wind and drink dew.”

"That said, it seems possible." Jingjing nodded slightly in approval.

Jiale picked up an egg and peeled it while saying, "If Junior Brother really stands for ten days or half a month, I think my uncle will be worried."

"Huh? Why?"

Jiale chuckled and asked mysteriously, "Do you know what day it is today?"

"I know. I looked when I woke up this morning. It's June 28th. What's wrong?"

"Then tell me, how many days are there in June?"

Jingjing pouted impatiently: "Who do you think I am? Of course I know there are 29 days in June! Just say what you want to say quickly, or I won't listen!" She turned her butt to the side and turned her head away with the bowl in her hand.

Seeing this, Jiale finally stopped keeping the secret and said flatteringly, "Okay, okay, then I'll tell you straight away. Don't be afraid!"

"What's there to be afraid of? Your master always brings so many zombies in and out. Have you ever seen me look scared?"

Jiale didn't believe it and said bluntly: "The day after tomorrow is July. You know July is the ghost month, right?"

"Ah."

Jiale blinked his eyes and said, "It's Ghost Month. The gates of hell are wide open. There will definitely be a lot of ghosts running around. Aren't you afraid?"

Jingjing didn't answer, but rolled her eyes at him, "Boring!"

Jiale was bored and his expression became depressed. He then said in a rush, "Junior brother told me before that he would take us back to Renjia Town on June 29th."

Jingjing immediately became interested and said with joy: "Really?"

"Yes! Junior brother said that Master Uncle will need help from someone, and he should go back after being out for so long. So I said, if I can't go back tomorrow, Master Uncle will definitely be worried."

"Ah, what should I do?"

"How would I know? Besides, according to the calculation, my master won't be back until tomorrow night." Jiale scratched his head, feeling very distressed.

"ah!!"

Suddenly, Jingjing screamed.

Jiale was so scared that he almost crushed the egg in his hand, "What's wrong, Jingjing?"

Jingjing pointed to the courtyard: "Junior brother just moved!"

Jiale quickly turned around to look.

After a few seconds, he narrowed his eyes and asked in confusion: "I didn't see it, are you dazzled?"

"No, I really saw Junior Brother's arm move just now. Hey, hey, hey, look, it moved again!"

“Now I see it too!”

Jiale stood up suddenly and ran forward quickly.

However, just as he reached the door, there was a sudden and invisible wave. The strong impact instantly knocked Jiale into the air, and he flew straight over the dining table and fell at the back of the main room.

Jingjing was stunned for a moment, then quickly went to help.

"How are you? Are you okay?"

Jiale covered his buttocks, his face flushed, but he still tried to save face by waving his hands: "No! I'm fine!"

Boom!

A deafening thunder suddenly exploded, and Jiale and Jingjing were so frightened that they couldn't help but tremble.

Outside the courtyard, Hong Chen's voice was also heard.

"Nine Dragons' Law, Black Dragon obeys!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a black dragon suddenly rose from his body and coiled above his head.

Upon seeing this, Jiale and Jingjing quickly ran to the door without saying a word, staring at the lifelike black dragon with their eyes wide open, not wanting to blink at all.

"rain!"

The black dragon soared into the sky, and dark clouds gathered with it.

Soon, thick dark clouds completely covered the black dragon's body.

With a dull thud, raindrops poured down.

From the window of the next room, Master Ikkyu could not help but sigh: "The young are so formidable!"

Jiale and Jingjing also rushed out of the room, indulged themselves in the heavy rain, and kept exclaiming in admiration.

Jiale: "Junior brother, you are definitely the most powerful Taoist priest I have ever seen!"

Jingjing: "Junior brother, you will definitely become the most powerful person I have ever seen in my life!"

Hong Chen wiped his face. Although his smile was a little forced, at least it was not that ugly.

Jingjing, who was very attentive, noticed this and asked in confusion: "Junior brother, you...are you still not satisfied?"

Hong Chen sighed softly, opened his mouth to catch a lot of rain water and rinsed his mouth, then said: "Not bad."

Jiale: "Ah, Junior Brother, are you not satisfied with this?"

"Idiot! 'Passable' means barely satisfactory!" Jingjing gave him a sidelong glance.

Jiale pursed his lips in grievance and muttered quietly: "Isn't that still not satisfactory?"

Jingjing frowned, looked at the sky, and said, "Is it because there were no dark clouds during yesterday's rain, but there are still dark clouds today?"

Hong Chen nodded, and then smiled and said, "It's okay. Although I still feel very ordinary, at least it's a good start, isn't it?"

Hearing him say this, Jingjing and Jiale both breathed a sigh of relief.

Jingjing comforted him, "Little Junior Brother, it's right that you think this way. More haste makes waste. Look, the thing you were worried about yesterday has already been completed today. Compared to others, you are already very fast!"

"Yes, yes!" Jiale also said, "Look, Jingjing and I still don't have any magic power, so we are not in a hurry. You are already so powerful, so there is even less need to worry."

"Just talk about yourself, why bring me along! I'm telling you, I already had a feeling when I was practicing last night. If you're still the same when I have the power, I'll see how you can still be lazy every day!"

Hong Chen: "Oh? Senior Brother Jia Le is being lazy?"

Jiale was horrified: "No! No! I'm going to go jogging in the mountains now!" He rushed out.

Hong Chen grabbed his wrist, snatched the peeled egg from his hand, and stuffed it into his mouth and finished it in one gulp.

"Okay, no need to run today, pack up your things, we'll set off back to Renjia Town right away!"

Jingjing: "Am I going too? Then my master..."

"Of course you have to go. As for Master Ikkyu, you can go back and pack your things. He will explain the reason to you."
