"Of course, although there are thousands of roads, each with its own strengths, none of them have shortcomings. The basic three treasures of essence, energy, and spirit all need to be cultivated. For example, your Baiyun Temple's exercises, although you cultivate qi, but at the same time It also has the effect of strengthening the body and nourishing the soul." Duan Changzai explained.

Lu Zheng nodded and thought of what Taoist Master Ming Zhang said when he passed on the "Bai Yun Chang Shuo Qi Refining Sutra" to him.

Lu Zheng sighed, "I didn't expect that just one Taoist sect could have so many teachings."

Duan Changzai nodded, "So you are a Qi refiner, how can you Compared with the realm of nourishing the soul? Of course there is no comparison, and it can't be compared."

Lu Zheng accepted the teaching.

This is still Taoism, not Buddhism yet.

There was also Buddhism in the Jing Dynasty, but there were no temples in Tonglin County.

There are many similarities between the Daomen legends of the Great Jing Dynasty and the Chinese legends, but there are also some differences, and there are also some specious places.

For example, the Taoist sect here also respects the Three Pure Ones, the Jade Emperor Haotian, the Arctic Ziwei Emperor, Taiyi Ku Tianzun, etc., but the related legends are very different from those in China. This has always been Lu Zheng There was a doubt in my mind, but I never dared to express it.

In addition, the real historical figures are almost completely irrelevant. For example, Guan Yu did not exist in the Jing Dynasty. There was a Yueyang in the Jing Dynasty, but Hua did not.

As for Buddhism...

I feel that Buddhism in any world will make some mistakes, and this place is no exception.

In addition to building temples and preaching in the Dajing Dynasty, Buddhism also has many Buddhist countries in the West, and the scriptures and meanings are also different. In some places, they are not even like Taoism, where each goes its own way and is not mutually exclusive. interference, but the complete opposite.

So although there were eminent monks and great virtues in the Jing Dynasty, and Zen masters who saved suffering, overall they were still not as popular as Taoist sects.

As for the rest, let’s talk about it later.

……

Lu Zheng cleared up his doubts, and the conversation among the three of them returned to the present.

As soon as he said a few words, Xiaocui came to the side of the hall waiting with an oil paper bag in his hand.

Shen Ying saw it and asked, "What's wrong?"

"The body of the green scorpion and the ghost beads of the ghost python have been packed away. In addition, the body of the scorpion is in the mouth of the scorpion. I found an oil paper bag, which is probably important to the scorpion demon, so I brought it to show the lady and the master."

"Bring it to me for a look."

Xiao Cui Xiao Sui walked in and put the oil paper bag on the table, and thenHe hurriedly exited.

"That's right."

Duan Changzai stopped Xiao Cui and turned to Lu Zheng and Shen Ying and said, "I want the ghost beads and the scorpion's carapace and Tail Hook went back to see the official, so he had to take it. As for the other things, just leave them to you two."

Shen Ying nodded and smiled, "I thank you, the medicine bag of the scorpion demon. , but it’s a good thing.”

Shen Ying motioned to Xiaocui to go down and deal with it, and the three of them focused their attention on the oil paper bag.

Shen Ying stretched out her hand and opened it layer by layer.

As expected, there are two books inside.

"Black Wheel King Transformation Sutra"

"White Bamboo Mantra"

The former talks about how to turn a living being into a ghost, and then turn into a ghost. Kung Fu scriptures that greatly improve one's power are inseparable from routines such as swallowing ghost bodies and sucking in Yang Qi. Moreover, there are also sequelae after transformation, so it is not a good approach at first glance.

Gu/span The latter is a relatively sinister spell, including curses, soul sealing, possession, distraction, etc. This thing can be used to deal with people who are more powerful than you or even have similar strength. They are of no use, they are specially used to bully the weak.

Duan Changzai narrowed his eyes, "These two foreign objects come from southern Xinjiang. I have never heard of the Black Wheel King. He should be one of the ghost kings in the Netherworld, but I have heard of the Baizhu Jiao. , is a large sect in the wilderness of southern Xinjiang."

Lu Zheng licked his lips, thought for a while but still did not ask a question.

Duan Changzai waved his hands and said, "You two can copy these two scriptures, but I originally wanted to take them away."

Shen Ying looked at Lu Zheng, Seeing Lu Zheng nodded, he called Xiaocui in again and asked her to take two scriptures down to copy them.

Duan Changzai looked at Shen Ying, "Mrs. Shen, are you not going to practice the "Hua Sheng Jing"?"

Shen Ying shook her head, "Sir, you are joking, that thing It's okay to be a collector and draw parallels, but if you practice cultivation, you will go astray. I don't want to provoke the adults to come to slay demons and eliminate ghosts."

Duan Changzai laughed and glanced at Lu Zheng, "Indeed, Mr. Lu will achieve great things in the future. Wouldn't it be nice to give you the status of a Taoist sect and give you the status of a Taoist incense and fire god?"

Lu Zheng blinked, " I’m just a layman, is that okay?”

Duan Changzairuo said meaningfully, “It depends on you in the future.”

…

Several people chatted casually. Duan Changzai asked about how Lu Zheng and Shen Ying met, and also learned about Shen Ying's grudges with the Netherworld, and also knew that she killed a general under King Yelan..

Duan Chang pondered for a moment, "Speaking of which, Mrs. Shen killed King Yelan's ghost general and helped me kill the scorpion demon. They all contributed to the great scene. If you have merit, you must repay it. Otherwise, the reward and punishment will not be known. ."

At this point, Duan Changzai raised his head and said, "It happens that Madam is the essence of the peach tree. How about I report it to the state government and build a temple for Madam in the peach forest? Madam can also borrow incense. It’s just that according to the laws of the Great Scenery, half of the power of the incense collected in this temple must be handed over to the Yin Division of Tonglin County.”

Shen Ying’s beautiful eyes lit up. , "Is it okay?"

Duan Changzai nodded, "It's just a small peach forest temple, it's not a big problem."

"There are no side effects if you practice with the power of incense. Right?" Lu Zheng asked, saying that he had read online novels before and they all said that the power of incense can disrupt the mind of practitioners.

"The power of incense is the purest power of the mind and soul. How can it have any side effects?" Duan Changzai said in surprise.

Lu Zheng asked, "For example, what are the obsessions attached to it by the common people?"

Duan Changzai laughed, "When the common people worship God, they can separate out a strand of the obsession that comes from praying. Soul power is extremely rare. If they can still have obsessions attached to their soul power, they are cultivators.

Besides, obsession is extremely conspicuous in pure soul power, and it absorbs the power of incense. Just remove it when you use your strength.

If there were such consequences, Da Jingchao would dare to let the entire Yinsi go to the incense road?"

Lu Zheng showed an embarrassed expression. The impolite smile, MMP in the heart, and secretly channeling online novels are very harmful!

Duan Changzai said seriously, "Because the incense path requires countless common people as its foundation, only the people, gods, ghosts or forces canonized by the Great Jing Dynasty can walk the incense path. If other demons and ghosts dare to build private temples, It's the evil god's obscene sacrifice."

Lu Zheng nodded, "I understand."

Yaya, no wonder the gods also want to compete for incense. It turns out that this thing has no side effects. And make a fortune.

“So Baiyun Temple also collects the power of cultivating incense?”

Duan Changzai said matter-of-factly, “It’s just that we have to share the profits with the court, otherwise you think the people are Where has the soul power generated by worshiping in the temple gone?"
