Chapter 58 Consequences
Although Li Qi didn't mind, Lao Ma seemed ashamed and chose to leave.
Li Qike was anxious. The old horse was gone. Did he have to rely on his own two legs to find Empress Luofu?
After he said this, Shen Shuibi looked very happy, stood up, and shouted not far away.
The old horse finally came back.
However, although Ma cannot blush, his feelings can still be seen from those guilty eyes.
As expected of Longju who has awakened his spirit, his expression is so vivid.
Li Qi didn't say anything. Facing the old horse that came close to him and rubbed its face against him, he just stood up, patted the horse's neck, and said: "What are you talking about? Help each other, help each other~ ”
After that, let the old horse eat grass by himself.
Then, he started the part that he was really interested in, which is the so-called "carp flow".
According to Shen Shuibi, this is a martial arts method that imitates carp. It is very crude and can only be practiced up to the eighth level, so it is also called the eighth level skill.
This was the first time Li Qi had heard of this grading method, but it seemed very scientific.
Cultivation methods have their limits. A crude one, such as Paibo Jin, can be practiced to great perfection. However, if you are like Li Qi, you can barely produce a trace of inner energy, and you have to squeeze the body to do it. It is simply inferior garbage. .
Books like the "Blessing" are first-level exercises, which means that this set of practice methods can go straight to the first level, without any detours in the middle, and all dangers have been overcome by the seniors with their lives.
However, the techniques are all written by people. If you practice low-quality techniques, you can break through the limits on your own and find your own way, but you will definitely have to endure a lot of hardships.
A complete set of practice methods usually consists of four books.
Kung Fu, classics, treasure books, and extraordinary aspirations.
Kung Fu, as the name suggests, is a method of cultivation. Most of these methods are very simple, because if the method of cultivation is too complicated, it will not be easy to spread and learn.
Generally speaking, it is easy to get started, but most of them require hard work. For example, Li Qi's method of congratulating people to practice, he needs to sacrifice to the gods of the four seasons, and then to the corresponding earth animals, every day, every day, so for a year, When the energy of the four seasons of the human body, small world, and earth are fully present, and the spirit energy of the earth is complete, then it can be considered as entering the ninth level.
The exercises are basically not too long. They are just a little bit, a few hundred words, or tens of thousands of words. There is no need to read any longer ones, because they are definitely junk exercises.
The practitioners of Qigong practice small talk and great principles, and practice the joints in a clear way, but how can there be so many joints? If you write something that is too long, you basically don’t need to read it, as it will definitely be empty talk.
Therefore, in some places of Taoism, the core technique is even just a poem.
Then, there are the classics, which are the main focus of cultivation.
There are only Kung Fu, and you practice them against each other, but you don't know the reason at all. The purpose of the Kung Fu is just an idiot who only knows how to practice. Such a person can only be regarded as a dead soldier, not a practitioner.
Only when you get the classics that accompany the exercises can there be descriptions of the "Tao" in them. Regarding the Tao of your practice, what are your thoughts, what is the core, what is your pursuit, and what is your essence? Tell.
Every practitioner is a follower of the Tao. If you only practice but don't even know your own Tao, then you are just a savage beast with cultivation and cannot be considered a follower of the Tao.
Generally speaking, the exercises will be accompanied by classics, and the two cannot be separated.
If you only have classics, you are just talking on paper. If you only have exercises, you are just a barbarian. After practicing for a long time, you don’t know what you are practicing.
Then there is the treasure book at the back.
The treasure book, as you can tell from the name, records the treasures of your practice path, the required practice materials, the various sects and orthodoxy of your fellow Taoists on this path of practice, and various magic techniques. Although the methods of using cultivation and all kinds of strange and obscene techniques cannot be shortcuts, they can effectively improve one's own means and combat effectiveness.
Tao is the fundamental principle.
Technique is the technique of using principles.
This is generally only found in large orthodox traditions, and is made for disciples. But for ordinary orthodox people, they actually don’t have that many techniques to use. Just a few word-of-mouth transmissions are enough, which is generally unlikely. Use the treasure book to record the introduction specifically.
After that, it’s Zhiyi.
This is an encyclopedia about your path. It records countless knowledge, various taboos, adaptations, etc. According to Shen Shuibi, you can read this or not, but if you don’t read it, you will look very uneducated. See Don't recognize anything.
As for what is recorded in Zhiyili, it depends on your sect and the level of your orthodoxy.
Small orthodox traditions can only record some local trivial events or some rumors.
The great orthodoxy is all-encompassing and encompasses everything.
After Shen Shuibi explained this, she gave an example: "For example, Li Qi's "Zhu" book is a complete practice method that contains exercises, classics, treasure books, and strange ideas. Witch Taoism is the world's first-class teaching method. The orthodoxy is naturally very complete.”
"But there are only a few disciples of the Great Dao Tradition after all. For some people who have become monks halfway, or who have entered the spiritual path due to unexpected encounters, there will be more or less shortcomings in these four aspects, so their path to pursue the Dao will also be It is extremely difficult, but the Tao should not be taught lightly. You cannot hand over your cultivation methods casually. Not only will you be punished, but they will also be cursed to death by the diviners of Wushen Mountain." Shen Shuibi warned. .
Once upon a time, many Taoisms joined forces to spread Taoism all over the world so that everyone could follow the Taoism.
But what it ultimately brought was a disaster, a great chaos that swept the world.
Li Qi nodded, indicating that he understood.
If knowledge is too easy to obtain, then there will definitely be chaos.
In particular, the knowledge of cultivation is not only knowledge, but also a weapon.
If the path of cultivation and pursuit of the Tao is completely open, without any screening, it is equivalent to opening the arsenal to the whole people.
Some people can restrain themselves, while some people don't care what the "Tao" is, they just want to shoot with Gatling guns.
In the end, only disasters are brought.
The Tao cannot be passed on lightly, which must be a bloody lesson. The quality, mind, and various miscellaneous requirements required for those who pursue the Tao are too many. If the method of cultivation is handed over to others casually, there will certainly be many more geniuses who were originally buried in the cultivation of the Tao.
However, it will also allow a bunch of ordinary people to obtain weapons and power that they should not have.
Holding a sharp blade, the desire to kill arises.
People are like this. Once they master the power beyond their own mind, they will be lost in it.
So Li Qi agreed that the Tao cannot be passed on lightly.
After being told by Shen Shuibi, the rabbit also expressed seriousness in this regard.
However, after being serious, she immediately became cute again, came close to Li Qi, and explained the Li Liuyi technique to him.
