Chapter 1,158 Passing Five Levels
Xia Pingan passed the level of Mirage God Illusion Realm easily. Originally, he wanted to subdue the mirage beast in this Mirage God Illusion Realm as a help, but he didn't expect that the soul of the mirage beast had been locked in the Emperor's Palace. He was one of the guards in Huangji Palace and could not leave, so Xia Ping'an gave up.
Xia Ping'an stepped out of this mirage illusion, and the scene in front of him changed. He saw clear water and blue sky in front of him, and the picturesque scenery. A beautiful lake surrounded by vast blue waves came into view. A square attic with three eaves and spires was on the bank of the blue waves. There is a platform around the attic, which is surrounded by plum blossoms. The south side of the attic faces the water, and you can go down to the ground through seven steps. The entire platform is built with limestone square stones, with stone slabs on top. It is majestic, upright, exquisite and elegant.
here it is……
As soon as Xia Pingan saw this attic, he suddenly thought of a place in his mind. The more he looked at this attic, the more familiar he became. In his previous life, he was looking for ancient places and places of interest. He had basically visited all the famous places of interest in China. Those famous attics in China Among the ancient monuments, there is one in front of me, which is quite famous.
Looking around this space again, in this space with eyes, there is no other entrance or exit except the attic. Xia Pingan suddenly felt confident.
Just when Xia Pingan came to the pavilion, the door of the pavilion suddenly opened. An old man wearing commoners, with a thin and energetic face came out of the attic and smiled at Xia Pingan, "Please invite this young master." Forgive me, I'm here to guard this attic. If you want to leave here, you have to go through this hurdle!"
"What do you call me sir?" Xia Ping'an asked politely.
"My name is not worth mentioning. I am just a commoner among thousands of plum trees!" the old man said modestly.
Ten Thousand Plum Blossoms and One Commoner, this was Sun Beard's nickname, and Xia Ping'an suddenly felt confident.
"I wonder how you can pass this test, sir?" Xia Pingan continued to ask.
"You see there is something missing at the entrance to the attic?" The old man pointed to the attic and asked Xia Ping'an.
Xia Pingan looked at the door of the attic and smiled slightly, "There are two shiny black wooden plaques hanging at the door of the attic, but there is no word on the wooden plaques, and there is still a couplet missing!"
The old man clapped his hands and smiled, "That's right. I'm going to write out the first couplet here. If you can match the second couplet, as long as you can do it neatly and have a level of 6 or 7, I won't embarrass you. It's okay. Once you pass, you can leave this world once you enter the building, what do you think?"
"Thank you sir for your generosity, and please give me the first couplet!"
"Young master, take a look, this is the first couplet!" The old man turned around, and suddenly there was an extra stroke in his hand. He was seen writing furiously on the empty plaque on the right side of the attic door, one by one. Golden writing appeared on the empty plaque.
——Five hundred miles away from Dianchi Lake, rushing into my eyes. Throwing lapels on the shore, joy is boundless in the vast emptiness! Look: the divine horse is flying in the east, the spiritual instrument is flying in the west, it is winding in the north, and it is flying in the south. Masters, you might as well choose the best place to visit and take advantage of Crab Island and Luo Island to comb your hair and mist on your temples; watch the sky and reed land, dotted with green feathers and red clouds. Don’t let it down: you are surrounded by fragrant rice, vast expanse of clear sand, hibiscus in nine summers, and willows in three springs.
It is indeed the best long couplet in the world!
Xia Pingan smiled slightly in his heart.
After writing the first couplet, the old man turned around and looked at Xia Pingan, "This is the first couplet. If you think of the second couplet, you can write it out at any time. If you can't think of it for the moment, you can think about it slowly here. Look here The boundless beauty may inspire you!”
"Thank you sir, I already know how to write the second line. Please lend me your pen!" Xia Ping'an smiled and took the pen handed over by the old man. Under the surge of divine power, the pen also moved like a dragon and snake, and a golden light flashed, On the left side of the attic door, a second couplet was left.
—— Thousands of years of past events are brought to mind. Drinking wine and sighing, who is the hero? Think about it: the Han Dynasty practiced building boats, the Tang Dynasty marked iron pillars, the Song Dynasty wielded jade axes, and the Yuan Dynasty crossed leather bags. He was so powerful and accomplished, he spent so much effort to move the mountain, and painted all the beaded curtains and buildings, but they could not catch up with the evening rain and morning clouds, so they broke off the monuments and left them all illuminated by the falling smoke. I only win: a few pestles and sparse bells, half a river of fishing fire, two rows of autumn geese, and a pillow of clear frost.
As soon as Xia Ping'an wrote this couplet, the door to the attic opened automatically. The atmosphere inside the door was swirling, and it was already another world.
The old man looked at the second couplet written by Xia Pingan, and the look on his face changed a little, and he seemed a little emotional, "I didn't expect that future generations would still remember it!"
"Sir, this long couplet will leave a name for future generations because of this long couplet, which is the best in the world. This long couplet has made Five Hundred Miles of Dianchi Lake famous all over the world. There is no other long couplet in the world. People in the world will naturally remember it!" Xia Ping'an said.
"Don't dare to take it!" The old man shook his head, "The busyness here is all about fame and fortune. After all, it's all about the lake!"
"That's it!" Xia Ping'an replied, "It's a good time to go. I owe debts to poetry and wine. I have never owed anyone a debt."
The two of them looked at each other, smiled, and saluted each other. Xia Pingan walked up the seven steps and stepped into the door of the Grand View Tower. The scenery in front of him changed and he had arrived in another space.
There is nothing in this space, only a twelve-sided prismatic jade giant pillar stands. The giant pillar is hollow and the top is not transparent. On the twelve-sided pillar, there are forty-five symbols flashing with golden brilliance. .
Xia Pingan circled the giant pillar back and forth, thought for a moment, raised his hand, and left a forty-five-character talisman on the giant pillar.
——To move Qi, when swallowing, it accumulates, when it accumulates, it stretches, when it stretches, it goes down, when it goes down, it becomes settled, when settled, it becomes solid, when solid, it becomes clear, when it becomes clear, it grows, when it grows, it retreats, and when it retreats, it becomes heaven. The nature of heaven is above, and the nature of earth is below. If you go with it, you will live, if you go against it, you will die. (Note 1)
This is the "Jade Pendant Inscription for the Movement of Qi", which is the earliest Qigong practice document in China.
As soon as these forty-five words were left, the next second, the giant pillar's golden light turned into a ray of light and submerged into Xia Ping'an's secret mandala. It stood in Lingxiao City, attracting many people in Lingxiao City. People gathered around to watch and learn.
In the space where Xia Pingan was located, at the same time that the giant pillar disappeared, a portal appeared in place where the giant pillar disappeared, and Xia Pingan immediately stepped into the portal.
…
Behind the door is a strange world. There are flames in the sky and sea water on the ground. Between the water and the fire, if you look around, there are powerful water and fire tornadoes hovering in the sky and the earth.
Seeing such a scene, Xia Pingan smiled. He thought that this fifth level would be sad. Unexpectedly, this fifth level actually focused on formation attainments. The great formation in front of him was composed of the great formation of heaven and earth and the formation of water and fire. It was formed by the fusion of the two ritual formations, with some other changes mixed in. For him, it was not difficult to get out of this formation.
…
An hour later, Xia Ping'an stepped out of the formation and finally came to a magnificent hall.
"Congratulations. In the past tens of thousands of years, you are the first person after me to enter here through the five levels of Huangji Palace..."
That familiar voice appeared in Xia Pingan's ears again.
