Chapter 161: Alchemy Steps
Yang Qiuyu looked quietly, page by page, and the pictures of alchemy were repeatedly presented in his mind.
The second step in refining elixirs is to collect herbs. Only with good spiritual herbs can you refine high-quality and above elixirs.
The medicine is produced when the scenery comes, like light passing through the curtain, fire balls rushing, wind gushing behind the ears, warm overflowing the limbs, and the external kidneys are erect. This is when collecting medicine and returning to the furnace. You should use the spirit to kill it, so that it will not rush outside; use the breath to absorb it, so that it will return to the furnace. The spirit can explore its movements, sit in the Dantian, and do not sink or distract, and dominate it, and the dynamic energy will rotate and depend on each other. The method of exhaling is used. According to the method of collecting medicine, you should use the suction machine to return to the furnace.
This statement "sucking is the method of exhaling" is suspected to be a mistake in printing. Because the internal qi drops when exhaling, but the internal qi rises when inhaling. When the true seed is produced, the true qi rushes down to Yangguan and the external kidneys are at a loss. It is reasonable to use the method of inhaling to make it "reverse thoughts and alchemy furnace".
"The innate true qi moves, and it cannot be calm. Concentrate the qi hole quickly, keep your eyes calm, lift your mind, and keep your mind open, and keep your mind calm, and use the word sucking to lift it up, and use the tongue of licking to lick the upper palate.
Use the word "Cut" to tighten the valley path, use the word "Cut" to close the three gates, and the ears, eyes and mouth are the same... Use inhalation without exhalation, and exhalation is just followed after exhalation." That is, use a little intention to exhalation, and inhalation is only followed. At this time, breathing is continuous, because of the intention to exhalation, the vital energy will also turn into the ***. This is the method of absorbing it, also known as martial fire.
The third step is to seal the furnace!
If you feel that the qi has returned to the furnace, you should stop the martial fire and bathe it properly; use your eyes to shine, protect it with your mind, blow it with breath, fumigate it with spirit, illuminate it without illumination, guard it without illumination, guard it slowly with low fire, also called sealing furnace. Bodhidharma said that the second time of the collection of Muni was picked. When the seal was too young, there was also a motivation. A yang fire came out from it, which was when the yang fire came. The true meaning still sat in the dantian, divided the mind to the yang fire, and reached the tailbone, and naturally stormed the gate and swayed the orifices, and the wonderful transformation was *. After the movement of the lunar calendar, return to the root and return to life, firmly seal it; when the static is shining brightly, and when the movement is like this, the spirit moves, the qi moves, the spirit stays, and the movement is dependent on each other, and then it will be wonderful. This is a secret that has not been passed down forever.
"Uh..." Yang Qiuyu was speechless.
The fourth step is to refine medicine. The true seed is taken into the furnace, with eyes shining and guard them with mind. When the seal is sealed, a sudden movement will be made, which is when "pumping the wind of Xun and exerting Kun fire". When the yang energy moves, use the spirit to illuminate it, and then use the fire to refine medicine; blow it against breath, and make it move upward, which is to use the wind to help the fire. Fire borrows the wind and help the power of fire. Wind and fire are used together, and the essence will transform itself into qi; the qi is driven by the breath and blowing, and naturally rises. When the rising action comes, follow the action to ascend it, follow the action to ascend it. When the down action comes, follow the action to ascend it. In general, it is necessary to clarify the mechanism of coordinating and moving, follow the action to ascend it. When the movement stops, it stops with the action to ascend it, always move and then lead, and then calm, naturally, even if there is a spirit to attract it, it does not stagnate even if it blows with breath. When the lift is activated, the soul still condenses into the entrance, slightly divides its spirit to ascend it. When the breath blows, it is not focused on the suction machine.
When you exhale, listen to it naturally. Although the suction machine goes downward, the air is blown by the true breath and reverses and rises. When you use it to increase and use it, it is just like this. If you listen to it, you will listen to it rise and fall.
I know how to follow the heavens, so I regard the spirit as the sun and the essence as the sea water. Using the spirit fire to refine the essence, it can transform the essence into qi and rise to the extreme top. Qi is connected to the mind from the tailbone, and it does not rise from the Jiaji, and there is no other way. This is the immortal's Zhoutian and the Buddhist turn. I don't know how many times the Zhoutian will be, and the essence will be completely transformed into qi. At this point, the fire is full and the horse's yin is hidden, so it is suitable for warming up. If you move the fire again, there will be a risk of damage to the elixir. If you see a few maneuvers, it will be said that the effect of the Zhoutian is not enough, the external kidney does not shrink, and you will stop the fire by yourself, and the inner elixir is not formed.
Yang Qiuyu's hand holding the ancient alchemy book trembled constantly, because the word "Zhoutian" seemed to be heard on the earth.
Is there similarity between Chinese myths and the legends of Tianluo Continent? Otherwise, why do people here say common words in ancient China? Yang Qiuyu shuddered again when he thought about this.
Yang Siying looked at him and asked, "Are you okay?"
"It's okay." Yang Qiuyu shook his head and said immediately. After saying that, he continued to read. Although there were many things he didn't understand, it was generally understandable.
When you are extremely weak and quiet, suddenly you move, it is the real mechanism. You can "move and stay without leaving this" at the 26th hour. When you move, you use the true breath to return to the furnace and exercise with martial fire; when you move and practice, the true seed will be seen by the full qi. There are two symptoms: qi and qi accumulate to produce the true seed. There are six symptoms: one sign of medicine, one sign of sealing the furnace, one sign of rising, one sign of descending, and two signs of bathing. From the yang to be produced, it is harvested and returned to the furnace, which is to regulate external medicine, which is not among the six symptoms. From the medicine to be produced, it is harvested, it is harvested and returned to the furnace, running the surroundings, rising and falling, and bathing, and returning to the root and warming, there is nothing else.
As for the small Zhoutian, the metaphor of the hexagram, the fire at Zi time rises upwards from the tailbone, which is Chou time, and then rises up to Yin time, and then rises up to Mao time, which makes the spirit and energy go out, which is bathing. For example, the bell rings and the inner needle turns for a week, Zi, Chou, Yin and Mao are both in it. When the medicine rises, it is also said that Zi, Chou and Chou are both mild yang, and the three yangs are sufficient to be prepared by the beginning of Yin.
This is the meaning of using the two hours of Zi and Chou to clarify the number of one Yang and the two Yangs to describe the medicinal medicine that is not picked up. It must wait until the yang is sufficient before it can be collected. It is not the time when Zi and Chou are used as the medicine.
Just like the thirty day of the moon, one yang is born in Kun on the first day, and the yang is on the first day, and the yang is on the upper string on the eighth day, and the yang is half in the yin, which is also called the two yangs. This refers to the tender medicine that cannot be collected. It must be prepared for the 15th day, and the three yangs are ready before it can be taken. If you do not know how to take it at this time, it should be seen on the 16th day (it should be "overlooking" or "looking far away"). One yin is born in Qian, and the 23rd day, and the yin is born. When the thirty day, it will only be pure yin, and the medicine that is old cannot be collected.
Above the Zhoutian, Qintian's secret alchemy technique is called one yang, two yang, Zhen, and Dui. They are all borrowing hexagrams to make clear medicines that are not available; they are called one yin, two yin, and Xun, and Gen, which is also borrowing hexagrams to make clear medicines that are not available.
"Qin..." Yang Qiuyu looked in shock. Could it be that ancient China is really closely related to this world?
When talking about the earth, Yang Qiuyu asked what the moon Long Ya saw looked like, and Long Ya also said that it was different from what he saw with his naked eyes. Each eye view was different. The naked eyes could only look at the surface. Drawing a cube with chalk also requires a dotted line to see that it is decent rather than a single-sided shape.
Long Ya once said that different eyes look at things completely differently and virtually hell heavens. Ancient Buddhist scriptures mentioned the heavenly eyes, Buddha eyes, human eyes, wisdom eyes, etc., and the earth had fantasy techniques, including alchemists, immortal elixirs, and Xu Fu, etc.
...The earth used to be an oval, maybe it was a continent connected to foreign civilizations! It was just that the ordinary human eyes could not see through it. Yang Qiuyu's idea was very dangerous, and he didn't know why he thought so.
The Alchemy Sutra says that the number of 360 breaths in the sky is enough to be counted in one week. I say that only one week is enough to be counted in three hundred and sixty. For example, if the pointer of the bell can be unified in a week, it is twelve o'clock, so why count the minutes and seconds again, in vain! As for the theory of thirty-six and twenty-four, it is all a word, not to make scholars count thirty-six when the Yang rises, and when the Yin falls, it is twenty-four. Qi reaches the tailbone and rises to the extreme top. Because it rises, it is called Yang; from the extreme top to the Kun abdomen, it falls, so it is called Yin, which is actually only one thing. Changing the hexagram and drawing the lines is also the meaning, but it is just a comparison, so how can there be a line?
As for the thirty-six and twenty-fourth grades, they are all prescribed words, not to make scholars count thirty-six when they encounter yang, and to see yin descending. The qi reaches the tailbone and rises to the top.
Because it rises, it is called Yang; from the top, it falls from Kun's belly, because it falls, it is called Yin, and it is actually only one thing, the ear of the tripod.
This is also the meaning of changing hexagrams and drawing lines. However, it is just a void. How can there be a line? Because the first yang moves and the qi reaches the tail Yan, it is called Fu hexagram, and it is also called Zishi; then it rises to two yangs, at the time it is Chou, and at the hexagram belongs to Lin; then it rises to three yangs, at the time it is Yin, and at the hexagram belongs to Tai; then it rises to four yangs, at the time it is Mao, and at the hexagram belongs to Dazhuang; because the yang energy is already strong, there is a saying that bathes at this time, but it is just stopping and not doing it.
If you stop for a moment, you will have a motivation. It will rise to the five yangs, which is Chen at the time and is Guagua. It will rise to the jade pillow, which is Si at the time and belongs to the stem. The six yangs are sufficiently prepared, so there will be changes. From the stem to the Gua, which is Wu at the time; from this gradually descends, escapes, and does not, observes, peels, and Kun returns to the root. In fact, the twelve hours and the twelve hexagrams are both empty and versatile, but where is the qi? That is, when, which hexagram is not true and there is a hexagram. For example, the sun is in the north and is in the south and is Wu at the south. It is inexplicable in the sun, but people say it is Ziwu to divide the day and night.
The fifth step is to stop fire. Stop fire means that the great elixir has been formed and cannot be used for the fire in the sky. "Knowing to stop will not be in danger." It is said that the elixir is completed and should stop fire at the right time. The reason why we use fire is to refine essence and qi. If the essence is completely transformed into qi, there is no essence to be refined, then there is no fire. However, stop fire is not to use fire, but to not use fire to breathe.
If you use breathing again, bulge the dragon again, and then move through the Zhoutian again, the elixir has matured and cooked again, and there is no one who does not harm the elixir. The ancient immortal said: "If you have not refined the elixir quickly, you should practice it. After refining it, you should know to stop enough." Because the essence has been completely transformed into qi and the Yangguan has been closed, you should stop breathing and wait for the secrets of heaven. However, stopping is not not breathing, but not using breathing to force the elixir to run the Zhoutian.
If you stop fire sometimes, stop it first before the time, then the leakage will be completely eliminated and not verified; if you stop it when the time is time, then the fire will be dry and elixir will grow old. If you do not come forward or backward, if you are at the right time, then the sunlight will appear three times, which will stop the fire scene.
At Yang Qiuyu Pass, Zhihuo actually has similarities with the Tao Te Ching. He had read Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching. He used to think it was all nonsense, so he continued to turn the page to read.
From the two appearances of sunlight to the three appearances of sunlight, it is right at the right time. If it arrives in the four appearances, the elixir will grow old.
When the fire reaches the end, one should be calm and calm, breathing seems to be there or not, and the spirit seems to be guarding but not guarding. The ancient immortal said: "The elixir is formed in the concentration", which is the most important thing. Because it is not warm and nourished, great medicine will not be born.
The five elements talent, the green aura of the alchemy sinking wood can open up one's own essence to achieve the power of refining qi and transforming into gods, and all are empty of the four major actions.
"What is that realm of refining qi into a god?" Yang Qiuyu asked Yang Siying in confusion, staring at her chest with two handsome eyes, "Where is the girl's dantian and aura?"
"Guess." Qianqian Ranran's fingers closed her eyes and smiled.
