Shennong Sequence

Chapter 29 I am from a farming family, and I am best at creating life and longevity!
Zhao Yun read for a while to calm himself down, and then he heard the heavy snoring of Liu the Butcher next door.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. Before, on the grassland, Butcher Liu had made bold statements and vowed to work all night long.

But the snoring sound has started, can this be called working late into the night?
At most, it was just reading a book, but I was hypnotized by the book.

However, this was someone else's business after all, so Zhao Yun couldn't say much.

He was waiting for something else. The night before, he had witnessed the struggle between the golden light and the strange wind.

It should be much safer to wait until the strange wind and the golden light fight again tonight before going to find Old Man Sun.

Moreover, Old Man Sun knocked on his head three times, which meant he had to go there in the middle of the night, which was not an ordinary time.

Zhao Yun, lying on the bed, gradually emptied his senses.

Of course, he was not asleep, but with his eyes closed, he was carefully sensing the psychic character in his sea of ​​consciousness.

Through the faint light emitted by the characters, he observed the various strange scenes inside the sea of ​​consciousness, such as the boundless dark world, the small pool of water at the bottom of the sea of ​​consciousness, and the seemingly unfathomable sky above the sea of ​​consciousness, and so on.

Zhao Yun was slowly exploring his sea of ​​consciousness, but unfortunately not long after, a strong wind suddenly blew outside the window.

Along with the strong wind, Zhao Yun suddenly heard two knocks on the door. The sound seemed to be the whisper of a demon from the abyss of the underworld.

But Zhao Yun was not fooled by this thing.

He remained silent, unmoved and unheard.

After a long while, the strange wind outside the door gradually subsided.

Then, a golden light flashed outside the window, and the light was like the dawn, and the strange wind completely dissipated.

Zhao Yun waited for a while until the golden light in the sky completely went out.

He listened quietly to the silence in the yard, then gently pushed open the door and looked out. There was no black wind in the yard. Then he pushed the door open carefully, quietly came to Old Man Sun's door, and raised his hand to knock gently.

Unexpectedly, the door was not closed tightly and opened with a slight push.

Old Man Sun got up from the bed, looked at Zhao Yun who came in from the door, and asked:

"Zhao Yun, why are you here in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"

"Master, before nightfall, you knocked on my head three times in the stable, then raised your hand to look at the moon in the sky, and then walked into the middle door. Isn't this a hint for me to come quietly in the middle of the night and teach me the Dafa? So please let me know clearly, Master."

"You are a person with insight. But do you know what cultivation is?"

Zhao Yun did have only a vague understanding of the ways of cultivation.

Although he had read many novels about cultivation in his previous life, there were very few that fully explained the path of cultivation, so he did not know much about the matters here.

If I were to rashly speak out the twisted ideas in the novel and make irresponsible comments on the truth at this moment, I might leave a bad impression on my master!

As a young boy who has just started practicing Buddhism, he doesn’t understand and can just say it directly. There is no need to be shy!

In addition, after reading so many novels, Zhao Yun also knows how to be "cool"!
After sorting out his thoughts, Zhao Yun said:
“Master, I really don’t know much about spiritual practice, but I have heard scholars describe the scenes of immortals.

I think this practice is either:

Temper your body and strengthen your posture,
The sun, moon and stars can be picked with your hands.
The joy of eternal life,
"Lying high in the sky, transcending the world!" "You are so greedy, boy! Among all the living beings in this world, how many people dare to say that they can live forever and be free and at ease?

However, we farmers are the best at creating life! The path to immortality that seems like a flower in the mirror or a moon in the water, far away and unattainable in the eyes of others, is within reach for us!
Can you inherit my farming tradition?"

"Of course I am willing! As long as you are willing to teach me, I will study hard!"

Old Man Sun nodded, got up from the bed, walked into the room, and said:
"You are a teachable boy, but tonight, I will not teach you the way of cultivation. Instead, I will tell you about the inheritance of our farming family. I will let you know more about our farming family so that you can practice more smoothly in the future."

Zhao Yun nodded: "Yes."

Old Man Sun continued:

"This way of cultivation has been passed down since ancient times. In the beginning, those humans who drank blood and ate raw meat were filled with deep fear and awe in the face of nature. This was the most primitive belief and worship."

"Then, those with great perseverance imitated the creation of heaven and earth, learned the principles of heaven and earth, and studied the special abilities of various species, such as strange beasts, monsters, elves, monsters, gods, demons, etc. These were the first witches."

"Then, witches communicated with the gods born between heaven and earth, and the saying of coexistence of humans and gods came into being. Later, people understood heaven and earth, discovered the power between heaven and earth, and found a special kind of writing, or learned the writing of gods. This is the original writing of the great way."

"Then, totems interwoven with various runes appeared, and man-made gods of faith also appeared. The totem engraved on the body of a strong man was the first totem warrior. This was the origin of martial arts..."

"In the ancient times, immortals and demons were in chaos, and the world was in turmoil. Countless talented people rose up in this chaotic world, pursuing the supreme way of cultivation. Then the world changed, and the world changed. The history in between has long been buried by the long river of time..."

"Then there are the bloodline inheritors, Qi cultivators, Fang Xiandao and other inheritances that remain..."

"As time went by, it became an era of contention among a hundred schools of thought, which is now the golden age."

"However, the times are changing, and the way of heaven and earth is also quietly changing. We must also follow the trend of the times...Nowadays, two ways of cultivation have emerged among the major Taoist sects."

"One is the old cultivation system, which mainly focuses on refining essence into qi, refining qi into spirit, refining spirit into emptiness, and refining emptiness into the Tao. This kind of description is the motto of cultivation, and this is the old method."

"And today's new method is easier to practice than the old one. This is the orthodoxy!"

"The emergence of the Daotong is also in line with the theoretical formation of various schools of thought today."

Old man Sun paused at this point to let Zhao Yun digest what he said.

Zhao Yun pondered this magnificent historical scene and felt that the old law seemed to coincide with the ideas in certain classics of his previous life.

Unfortunately, although he read a lot of novels, he rarely read Taoist classics.

At most, I can remember a few dirty words from the novel...

"Then Master, how do you practice the new Taoist tradition nowadays?"

Old Man Sun continued to narrate:
"The practice of Taoism is naturally based on Taoism."

"In addition, the advantage of the Taoist tradition is that it can save the steps in the old cultivation system, which requires one to comprehend the various principles of heaven and earth when practicing for the first time. One only needs to follow certain steps and rituals to cultivate magic power in one step."

"Of course, after completing the specific steps and rituals, you still need to take a pill of Daotong Pill, which will directly start the path of cultivation."

"And my farming family naturally starts with farming!"
