After a group of seasoned Taoists with an average age of over 50 talked with Xie Zihao for half an hour, although they still had a lot to say, they said goodbye and left very wisely, leaving their time to Xie who couldn't wait to read the remaining fragments of the Jade Book.

Real person.

Anyway, everyone has become the guest elder of their Hongmen, and the two parties live not far away. There will still be many days of exchanges in the future!

Xie Zihao suppressed the emotions in his heart and sent Huang Tianjiao and the Taoist group out of the gate of Bieyuan. Then he returned to the main courtyard of Bieyuan and told Melinda and others not to disturb him.

Then he sat quietly in the master bedroom alone and opened a jade slip in his hand.

This jade slip is not the same thing as the so-called Jade Eye Slip made up by those cultivation novels on the Internet in the past life. It is a jade slip made of long strips of jade connected in series like a bamboo slip.

The meaning of the word Jian itself refers to bamboo slips, which are long and narrow pieces of bamboo used to write characters in ancient times.

Compared with the clay tablets and slates used by ancient Westerners, the writing carriers used by our ancestors in China are more convenient and luxurious.

In addition to bamboo slips and jade slips, there are also gold books and jade albums. Among them, gold books also refer to gold inscriptions, which are written records engraved on bronze vessels such as bells and tripods. However, in Taoism, gold books generally refer to the

Taoist book with pages of gold.

Jade books are jade slips, which of course also include books made of wide and thin jade scrolls.

On the contrary, the oracle bones studied by academia are not actually the common carriers used to write words and record history in ancient times. They are the contents recorded by wizards, emperors and nobles during divination, just like the scratch paper used by modern students for calculations.

Same, they are usually buried somewhere after use.

If it weren’t for the fact that things involving divination have mysterious properties and cannot be destroyed at will, it is estimated that all the tortoise shell and bone fragments would have been destroyed, and then there might not have been any oracle bone inscriptions passed down to future generations!

After all, the ancient emperors and dignitaries often did not want the content of their divination to be exposed, right?

You must know that even though Xie Zihao had a rich family background in his previous life, it was difficult for him to understand those ancient bronze inscriptions and oracle bone inscriptions.

On the other hand, he knew some of the Taoist ciphers that recorded some of the mysteries of heaven and earth, such as Lei Wen Niao Seal Script and Jade Script True Script, but they were not comprehensive.

On the contrary, after gaining the memory of the original person in this life, my mastery and interpretation of these ancient characters have become more comprehensive.

This volume sent by Huang Tianjiao is a fragment of the true text of the Jade Book of the Red Book of Lingbao. In addition to the regular script, there is also a part of the true text of the Jade Book written in it. Xie Zihao happens to be able to decipher it.

That's right, it's regular script.

Many people don't have that concept and think that ancient secrets and other things are written in very obscure words.

In fact, after the Qin Dynasty, the First Emperor unified the writing system. After the Han Dynasty abandoned Qin Xiaozhuan and used official script, it was not much different from modern writing. Modern Easterners who do not understand traditional Chinese characters can understand most of them.

Zhao Zheng’s merits will last forever!

Of course, it might be a little more difficult for you who didn't study well in elementary school.

At the end of the Eastern Jin Dynasty when Ge Chaofu lived, regular script had already appeared. The famous calligraphy sage Wang Xizhi was the most famous for his regular script "Huang Ting Jing" and "Le Yi Lun", and his running script for "Kuai Xue Shi Qing Tie" and "Sang Luan Tie" The most outstanding cursive script is "Seventeen Posts", and the representative work "Preface to the Lanting Collection" is known as "the best cursive script in the world".

It can be seen that although the Wei and Jin Dynasties were characterized by frequent wars and turmoil, they also created a brilliant cultural fire. In terms of calligraphy alone, it is no less than the era of a hundred schools of thought in the calligraphy world.

Therefore, the regular script text on this jade slip has basically no reading difficulties for modern people, but it is rare to interpret the meaning after the text is composed.

"The first name of Dongfang Anbaohua, Lin Qingling, is called Shengshenbaozhendongxuanzhang. The book is all empty and natural. It is secreted in the Qibao Xuantai, Ziwei Palace, Jiutian Lingdu. The five emperors and priests came out according to Xuanke forty thousand kalpas..."

The text on this jade slip was carved with a carving knife and then outlined and filled in with a certain kind of cinnabar pigment as ink and a brush. After thousands of years, it remains as fresh as ever.

And there was a faint spiritual light shining in his eyes.

In this situation, even if he doesn't open his eyes, he can easily perceive the content recorded on the jade slip simply by relying on his own sense of spirituality.

"This seems to have a similar theory to the content of the Five Internal Organs of the Qing Dynasty Huang Ting Jing..."

After seeing the opening content of the jade slip, Xie Zihao thought about it for a moment and found that it was somewhat similar to the content of the Huang Ting Jing he had read.

"However, it is not surprising that the true text of the Lingbao Chishu Jade Chapter has a connection with the Huangting Sutra. After all, the establishment of the Lingbao Sect was deeply influenced by the Shangqing Sect. Most of the scholar-bureaucrats in the Eastern Jin Dynasty came to believe in the Shangqing Sect after they traveled south, and they did not worship the Shangqing Sect. The Qing sect is Tianshi Dao, and because Juqu Mountain is right next to Jinling, Shangqing Maoshan has a natural geographical advantage..."

Next, Xie Zihao carefully studied the contents of this jade slip and found that although it was a fragment, it was one of the five authentic volumes of the Jade Slips in the Red Book of Lingbao. The contents of this volume were complete.

This result made Xie Zihao very excited.

The true text of the Jade Chapter of the Red Book of Lingbao can actually be called the "Five Talismans of Lingbao". It is similar to the True Shape Map of the Five Mountains, and it talks about secret methods derived from the five true talismans.

Unlike the Five Zang Chapter of the Huangting Sutra, which focuses on worshiping the gods who refine the five internal organs of the human body, the true text of the Lingbao Chishu Jade Chapter emphasizes the power of the five true texts as talismans.

Its power is mainly reflected in the fact that it can make people become immortals, sort out and control the weather, control the ghosts and gods of the underworld, and survive disasters such as floods and fires.

"Obviously, among the several Taoist masters of the Lingbao Sect, Zuo Ci, Ge Xuan, Zheng Yin, Ge Hong, etc. have formed several generations of master-disciple relationships because of teaching the Golden Pill Immortal Sutra, and they are all working hard to practice the art of immortality! "

"Zuo Ci is good at the art of transformation and the art of nourishing and nourishing the body. Ge Xuan can hold his breath, and every time he is drunk or in the heat of summer, he often goes to the bottom of the abyss and only emerges in one day. Zheng Yin pays attention to the edicts of the Three Emperors Sect. The art of ghosts and gods. Ge Hong, the youngest among the four, has taught many alchemy techniques, but the most important one is the golden elixir technique."

"As their descendant, Ge Chaofu is not interested in the experimental techniques of immortality such as golden elixir technique. He follows a similar path to Zheng Yin, but there are differences."

The magic of the five true texts to achieve immortality through talismans focuses on the use of other powers, based on reliance on external divine power. It is similar to but opposite to the concept of Zheng Yin's Three Emperors' Internal Texts and the Five Mountains True Shape Diagram. It uses Taoism to confer gods and then rely on the gods. The path of strength.

In modern terms, the purpose of practicing Taoism such as Zuo Ci, Ge Xuan, Zheng Yin, Ge Hong, etc. is basically personal and is to realize one's own immortality. However, Ge Chaofu's practical pursuit has many goals. To a large extent, it goes beyond the scope of oneself and even involves the whole society.

"Is this also the reason why Ge Chaofu founded the Lingbao Sect system?"

The true text of Lingbao Chishu Yupian played a foundational role in the establishment and development of Lingbao sect. It is full of originality and is obviously not inherited by the family.

The scripture interpretation of the Five Spiritual Treasure Talismans probably talks about the five innate gods born after the Yuan Dynasty. In fact, they are derived from the ancient theory of the Five Virtues and Five Elements. It is not that there are really five such gods. Including Yuanshi Tianzun is also an anthropomorphic representation of the natural phenomena when the heaven and earth were not opened and the universe was conceived.

It also contains the practice concepts of reincarnation, corpse dissolution, etc., emphasizing that "the corpse will be dissociated in time, the wheel will be destroyed, and finally return to the immortal path. The form and spirit are the same, not far away from each other, and both will enter the true path."

This is the true magic of magic.

But it is also a method of conferring gods.
