Chapter Eighty-Seven: The True Teachings
Zhao Ran did go to the Tianhe Palace, and it had nothing to do with Zhou Yumo's departure, in the scripture hall of the Tianhe Palace, as soon as he appeared, he caused thunderous applause.
Not only the Tianhe Palace, but also the White Horse Temple, the Spirit Snake Temple, the Turtle Shou Temple, the Flying Dragon Temple, and the Taoist priests above the eight deacons of each court in the Ten Directions Jungle of the Song Domain all gathered in the Tianhe Palace, such as Jin Jiu and others all rushed to listen to Zhao Ran's teachings.
This is a real transmission of the Fa, not a way to manipulate the scriptures and words, let alone to talk freely about life and ideals with everyone.
After pointing out the purpose of "sincerity for merit and perfection for virtue", Zhao Ran opened a one-on-one teaching mode, and did not require everyone to worship him as disciples, not even named disciples, just one by one, he put the visualization map of the sea of merit and strength into their bodies, and at the same time taught them the first three chapters of the "Innate Merit Sutra" to ensure that they could practice to the Yellow Crown.
Even the examination of character is saved, anyway, they are not their own disciples, they don't have to take responsibility, if something goes wrong, they have their own Dongji Pavilion waiting for them.
What's more, it's hard to have any problems, if you don't do good deeds, you won't be able to get merit, if you want to practice or not, you can do it yourself, you don't need Zhao Ran to whip and supervise, the practice itself will urge you to run forward.
It is not an easy task to enter the visualization map, it requires the consumption of mana, and Zhao Ran just took this opportunity to consume and refine a large amount of energy, making the Yuan Infant in his sea of qi even more white and fat.
Zhao Ran's mana refining speed is extremely fast, the efficiency of consuming essence is eight times higher than before, and there is a huge amount of merit power entanglement, so the number of spells that can be cast every day is much more than ordinary people, other refiners can cast spells for two or three people a day, but he can cast spells more than sixteen times. In just three days, more than 40 people from the Ten Directions Jungle Paths were entered into the visualization map.
The preaching and governance system of the Song Domain, which had always followed the guidelines of Abbot Zhao, had now also opened up a new way for officials to be incorporated into the Taoist system. Taking the White Horse Courtyard as an example, the Hongyuan County Order, the County Commander, the Chief Register, and the County Governor were all granted the Dao to participate in the deliberations of the White Horse Temple, including the public promotion meeting.
Correspondingly, the government must also unconditionally comply with the resolutions formed by the three capital deliberations and the major deliberations of the White Horse Academy.
The county order participated in the deliberations of the three capitals, and the rest participated in the major deliberations, and from the top-level design, the government was incorporated into the Daomen system, and the two were closely tied together.
Therefore, the second phase of the transmission of the Tianhe Palace also added the heads of the Dao in this group of official mansions. Xia Ji, the governor of western Sichuan, Yuan Hao, the secretary of the governor's office, and Lei Shan, and other county officials, all got the visualization map.
Zhao Ran spent five days in the Heavenly Crane Palace, casting spells on seventy-two people, leading them on the path of cultivation. It's a pity that Zhao Ran's own merit power is huge, and a large amount of merit power has not yet entered his body, otherwise he would be able to perceive the seventy-two strong merit power that has become his "battle fruit" - attracting people to the Tao, which is also a great merit.
Among these 72 people, how many of them can finally stand out, or all of them will be promoted, can only depend on individual efforts.
On the ninth day of the ninth month of September, the Double Ninth Festival, Zhao Ran went back to Dajun Mountain to show his face, had a meal with his master and bride, and continued his busy teachings.
He came to the Hongyuan Imperial Palace again, and injected the visualization map of merit and strength into the bodies of all the officers of more than 100 households, including Ning Deshou, who guarded the palace, and also his own registered disciple Song Xiong.
Song Xiong is now a hundred households in the army guarding the palace, and his cultivation is in the Yushi realm, for a person with roots and no qualifications, this is the upper limit of his cultivation.
With the merit power cultivation method, it opened another door for him to practice, and what kind of achievements he could achieve required his own efforts.
At the Hongyuan Imperial Palace, Zhao Ran also instructed them on the methods of cultivation after entering the visualization map for twenty-three officers with more than 100 households. The army and the government are different, they need to fight and kill for many years, where is their merit?
Zhao Ran pointed out that soldiers also have merit, and their merit lies in defending the homeland and the country, in the bloodshed and sacrifice, in the selfless dedication regardless of personal safety, and in the deep affection for the army and the people of the people.
As long as you always carry the Tao, the family and the country on your shoulders, and put the people in your heart, merit will come naturally.
In order to encourage these officers to practice hard, Zhao Ran taught them to sing a military song in the vernacular: "Maybe I will say goodbye and will not come back, do you understand, do you understand? Maybe I will fall and will not get up again......
When they were singing, the eyes of these officers who had been fighting on the frontline for many years were red, and many of them left tears.
Afterwards, Zhao Ran accepted Song Xiong as an official disciple, ranking third in order of entry. He was the first to worship under Zhao Ran's disciples, but now he can only be at the bottom of the disciples, which is also a matter of creation, and he can't force it.
Then, Zhao Ran went to the Songfan Guard camp in the valley of the Chewa River, and entered a visualization map for more than 60 officers of more than 100 households, followed by the Anqu Guard.
Passing through Hongyuan, Zhao Ran also opened a lecture hall for his old subordinates, leading Zhou Huai, Lin Yuwen, Jiang Zhuzi, Zhang Wu, Tie Leng Long San, Bao Zhong, Zhang Wujin and others into practice.
Throughout September, Zhao Ran entered the visualization map for the local Daomen, military camps, and government people in the Song Domain, casting spells more than 200 times in total.
When he returned to Dajun Mountain in early October, his face was faintly haggard, and Rong Niang was so distressed that Rong Niang immediately took out the tonic for him to take, and at the same time helped him recover with the technique of double cultivation.
Abbot Zhao's preaching in the Tianhe Palace caused a sensation in the jungle of the Ten Directions of the Song Domain and the official government, and it was thus transmitted to the general view. In mid-October, just as Zhao Ran was about to return to Yingtian after his marriage leave, he received an edict from the general Guan Feifu and asked him to go to Jinji Peak to explain the situation.
Wouldn't this be a repetition of the edict of the general view ten years ago to cooperate with the investigation? Zhao Ran hurriedly asked Zhou Zhenren and Xu Zhenren, and the two true masters told him not to worry, the true master hall really just understood the situation and let him let go of his worries.
Rong Niang packed up, and the two of them would first go to Jinji Peak Cave Heaven to report to the True Master Hall, and then transfer to Yingtian. In the next few years, Rong Niang married chickens and chickens, and there was no blessed place to live. Fortunately, Jilong Mountain has been transformed by Zhao Ran well, and it can meet normal cultivation, and if you need to retreat, there is Qixia Mountain available, so there is no need to worry.
The cloud haze lily flew in the air, Zhao Ran looked at the mountains and rivers under his feet and thought silently, Rong Niang saw that he didn't speak, and comforted: "Don't worry, if the True Master Hall dares to make it difficult for you, I will never give up with them." ”
Zhao Ran shook his head and said, "I didn't worry about the inquiry of the True Master Hall, what I did was out of public intentions, and it was a good thing for the Daomen, they just wanted to know the inside story." ”
"And what are you thinking?"
"I'm wondering, who refined your flying magic weapons? Can the Yunhao Lily be dismantled and let Cai Yunshen, Guo Zhiwei and Long Qingzhen study and study it to see if it can be mass-produced?"
"You go to die!"
