My good luck came soon. When I was helping carry the flour bag in the noodle shop that day, I rolled up my sleeves, and Sister Han saw the purple scars on my arm. She asked me what happened? I told a set of lies Feng Junzi had already made up for me: I participated in a fighting club organized by the school and practiced boxing and taekwondo with senior sports students.

Sister Han pushed me to the kitchen and closed the small door. She must take off my coat and let her take a closer look at the injuries. I couldn't stand her, so I had to take off my coat and let her see the scars on my body. To be honest, the trauma on my body was not serious, but it was just slight blood bruises and scratches on my skin, but it looked scary. Sister Han carefully stroked the scars on my chest with her fingers, for fear of hurting me, and said in a heartache tone: "How come you guys make yourself like this? Your classmates are too ruthless, otherwise - don't practice."

When Sister Han spoke, her face was very close to me, and even her hair was rubbed against the tip of my nose. I stood there with my upper body naked. I smelled a strange fragrance on her body, and felt itchy in my heart, and I felt indescribable. I felt very embarrassed and it was difficult to push her away. Finally, when she finished watching my injuries, I found that my whole body was sweating, probably nervous. Before leaving that day, she gave me a can of ointment and said that it was used to rub it on my body to treat the injuries.

This ointment is contained in a large bottle of skin care products. It is obvious that it is the bottle of the moisturizer that Sister Han used. But the bottle is not the moisturizer used by women, but a strange ointment. The feeling of applying this ointment on the body is similar to cooling oil. It is hot and then cold when applied to the bruises. After this cold, it feels much more comfortable. It seems that Sister Han has many spiritual medicines for treating injuries. Last time I vomited blood and was the one she gave me the medicine to save me. This time I gave me this strange ointment again. I became more and more curious about her origin.

Sister Han’s ointment is very effective. I guess it is similar to the external secret medicine of the Golden Bell Cover mentioned by Feng Junzi. Apply it thinly throughout the body, and the scars on the whole body are healed very quickly. When I practiced the magical skills of the earth, I felt that my bones and skin were much stronger. With the ointment, the impact when rolling on the rock beach seemed easier and easier, and I rolled on the ground faster and faster. Fortunately, there were few people around the river beach, otherwise I would definitely treat me as a perverted mental illness.

...

Shang Yunfei said that he would go to his master to ask for advice on Sunday, but in fact he came to me for another week. Yunfei said to me with a bitter face: "My master scolded me, and later he asked you carefully about your situation and asked me what Buddhist practices you have learned before. I said that I have taught you to stop your mind and breathe, and later you have learned a set of impurity in the Four Mindfulnesses... He said that since I have learned impurity, there is a way, and he asked me to teach you the white bone view... He said that after he taught this white bone view, I can no longer care about you..."

It's good if you have a solution. As for Shang Yunfei no longer cares about it in the future, it doesn't matter. He has already made me suffer all this time. Feng Junzi actually asked me to practice donkey rolling on the river beach. Fortunately, there was Sister Han's spiritual medicine, otherwise I would have made this kid miserable.

The view of white bones that Yun Fei taught me is in line with the view of impurity I practiced before. Buddhism says, "The leather bag contains blood, red and pink skeletons, all colors and conditions are empty." The view of white bones is exactly this method of practice. In the state of concentration, I visualize the dispersion of the whole body's skin, starting from the toes, from top to bottom, and finally reaching the Baihui of the Peak. The skin of the whole body gradually melts away, leaving only a white bone. The white bone is pure and there is a white light flowing. The key to this method of observation is similar to the view of impurity. The key is to "sacrifice the body". The body's hair and skin are not yet there, so why fear the thunder in the ears?

Yun Fei said it very simple when he talked about the observation method, but when I practiced that night, I felt that it was much more difficult. The difficulty was not whether the thoughts during visualization could be realized, because I had practiced the view of impurity, so it was not difficult to master this kind of visualization. What really troubled me was the thunder sound in my ears.

In the state of concentration, I visualize the dispersion of the skin of the whole body, starting from the toes, exposing the toes, and then going upwards, the calves are sequentially... However, as the white bones view goes deeper and deeper, the thunder in my ears becomes more and more violent! Originally, after I learned Feng Junzi's "earth magical skills", although there was still thunder rolling in my ears in the state of concentration, and the sound had faded a lot, this time the thunder sound suddenly became louder. The thunder sound is regular. In the state of visualization, the skin of the whole body is melting, and the more white bones are revealed, the louder the thunder sound is. It seems that as the white bones advance upward, the thunder sound is more and more concentrated in my mind, becoming a compressed roar. When I visualize the position of the sternum, I finally couldn't bear the thunder sound and my mind left the state of concentration. On this first day, the white bones view was not successful.

The next night, the white bones in the state of concentration moved upwards, and the whole body had turned into a white bone in my mind. Although the thunder in my ears was getting louder and louder, it was still tolerated. However, when the visualization of "skin melting" rose to the position of the skull, a bursting thunder suddenly came from my ears, which was much more intense than any thunder I had heard before. With a shock, my mind scattered out of the state of concentration, and the white bones was unsuccessful.

Before I sat down on the third night, I spent a long time to calm my mind and had been fully prepared for the possible thunder. I thought that even if I could see such a thunder again, I would not be able to break my state of concentration. Sure enough, just like last night, after a thunderclap, I was still sitting in a state of concentration, feeling the golden light in front of me, and then suddenly everything calmed down. The thunder disappeared, and the silence was extraordinary. After the golden light flashed, there was a light in the skull. In a white light, I saw a real white bone - my own skeleton.

I "saw" my bones, but not with my usual eyes, but with a strange look. This feeling is hard to describe. There is an eye in the dark, and I see a skeleton of my own. The bones sit upright and surrounded by white light! The bones are conscious of the reality rather than the image of the mind, not imagining one's own skeleton, but truly seeing a skeleton, which is considered successful at this level.

...

"Did you really see your own skeleton? Damn! I'm in trouble now, I didn't expect this to happen!" Feng Junzi heard that after I asked for the White Bone View, he not only did not show a happy expression, but instead frowned and said a strange thing.

"Why is it so troublesome? Did I go wrong again?"

"You have practiced well at all, but the path you are taking is not the same as what I think. Shi Ye, do you want to learn "Shunting and Contemplation" or "Alchemy"? If you want to jump out of the world and practice, follow the current path. If you want to seek longevity and insight, your current state of white bones is not in line with the Alchemy."

"Why aren't it? I think it's all good, they're all amazing."

Feng Junzi rarely looked serious: "All kinds of methods of practice seem similar, but in fact many are completely different. They are all different beliefs. I only teach you the Tao of Alchemy and never tell you the worldview of people in the Tao of Alchemy. For example, the view of impurity and the view of white bones are all methods of "sacrifice of the body", while the inner alchemy is the most standard method of "longevity". The method of sacrificing the body emphasizes giving up greed for the body, while the method of immortality pursues the furnace and cauldron that is not damaged. These are completely opposite directions. I can't say which path is right, but you can only take one of them."

I thought for a long time and I never seemed to have planned to become a monk. When I first started practicing Taoism, I was just curious and healthy. Later, I continued to practice because I wanted to help Liu Yiyi and Teacher Liu. In this way, it would be better for me to take the alchemy route. Besides, Shang Yunfei had already said that I would no longer care about my cultivation in the future. If I wanted to practice, I could only follow Feng Junzi. So I said, "Feng Junzi, I don't want to become a Buddha immediately. I should learn alchemy from you. I have never thought about immortality, but you have not taught me the supernatural powers of Taoism."

Feng Junzi looked at my eyes and said slowly, "So this is troublesome. You have already walked on another road. It may take some time to pull you back. Shi Ye, I think you and Yun Fei learned to stop the mind and calm down, and later you learned the view of impurity with Mr. Zhang, who told fortunes, to the nine-section Buddha wind, to the view of white bones in the past few days, have you felt familiar in this experience? Have you ever seen it anywhere?"

"It seems familiar? It's my first time practicing Taoism, and I have never seen anyone practice it. How could I see it somewhere?"

Feng Junzi smiled faintly, took out a thick book from his schoolbag and handed it to me: "Look at this book "Journey to the West", do you have any impression? Don't tell me that you have never read it. You should have read the book of villain. Do you still remember the allusion of somersault cloud?"

Journey to the West? Somersault Cloud? Feng Junzi mentioned this. When Shang Yunfei taught me to meditate, I started touching in meditation, and was pulled to the stadium by Feng Junzi to fight the divine fist, and said half-hilariously that I had become Somersault Cloud. Think about the story in Journey to the West, the experience of Sun Wukong in the Bagua Furnace is somewhat inconsistent with my experience of practicing the impure fire view! Sun Wukong made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, and Feng Junzi and I were not so glorious, but just performed a "Fengshen" farce in the mountain temple. As for the current view of the Bones? When I think of the Bones in my heart, I unconsciously recited the word "Bones".

"Yes, it's just the part where the three fights of the White Bone Spirit. Journey to the West is not only a literary work, but also a prophecy of practice. Think about it, why did you take three days to practice the White Bone View?"

"Because of thunder in my ears."

"Thunder in the ears, not bad, it's thunder in the ears. Did you think of something? Why didn't Sun Wukong succeed in killing the White Bone Demon the previous two times?"

"Is it a tight hoop?"

Feng Junzi finally laughed out loud: "Yes, your tight-knot curse is the thunder in your ears. This is the prophecy mentioned in Journey to the West. It seems that you are not stupid either!"

Feng Junzi said that there is practice hidden in Journey to the West. I understood it, but on the other hand, I was even more confused. Who is Wu Chengen? Can the book be written like this? Feng Junzi ignored what I was thinking and said on the side: "Journey to the West talks about practice, but there are actually tendencies. Anyone with discerning eyes can tell that it is suppressing the Tao and promoting Buddha. The book is very good, but I don't like this topic. When I have the opportunity, I must not let the protagonist do it like that... Shi Ye, what do I think? Now I have a question to ask you, if you are Sun Wukong, are you willing to be Sun Wukong when you make a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, or Sun Wukong after you have obtained the scriptures and become a Buddha?"

Damn! Do you still have to think about it? I replied casually: "Of course, I'll be the Sun Wukong who made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace. How comfortable that is! How free!"

"It's good that you think so, and I'll find a way to help you. You can continue to practice the alchemy!" Feng Junzi spoke with a cunning smile, like a weasel stole a little hen, but I didn't notice it.

"What kind of way do you want to help me? Do I have any problems now?"

"Of course there is a problem. What you see in the state of concentration is white bones. How can I teach you how to collect herbs and make pills? But don't worry, give me a few days and I will definitely think of a solution."

...

Feng Junzi said he wanted to find a way, but it was much faster than Shang Yunfei. The next day, he just finished his morning self-study, and he grabbed me from behind the seat and whispered: "Shi Ye, I thought of a way, I found it in the book!"

I turned around and asked curiously: "What method? Which book?"

Feng Junzi proudly handed over a brick book that was thicker than a dictionary. The cover reads three big words "Dream of Red Mansions": "Masters vs. Masters, Cao Xueqin PK Wu Chengen, *Reverse the view of white bones, I am really a genius! You can read it yourself, the page where I hold the bookmark is the key to the part where the line is drawn, that is the mantra!" I opened this book "Dream of Red Mansions" with laughter and cry, and found the part where the line is drawn by Feng Junzi-

Jia Rui put away the mirror and said, "This Taoist is interesting, why don't I take a look?" After thinking about it, he picked up the "Fengyuejian" and looked at the opposite side. He saw a skeleton standing inside, which made Jia Rui hurriedly cover it up and scolded, "How can the Taoist priest scare me! - What is it if I look at the front again." Thinking of it, he looked at the front again, and saw Fengjie standing inside and waved to him. Jia Rui was happy and felt like he was in the mirror. After a while with Fengjie, Fengjie still sent him out.

On the bed, he uttered a sigh of relief. As soon as he opened his eyes, the mirror fell from his hand, and there was still a skeleton standing on the back. Jia Rui felt sweating. There was a pool of spirit left below, and he turned over the front again. He waved to him, and he went in again. This time, just as he was about to come out of the mirror, he saw two people coming, putting him in with a lock, and then leaving. Jia Rui shouted, "Let me take the mirror and leave." - After saying this, he couldn't speak anymore.

I understand what this passage means. It simply means that Jia Rui is addicted to lust and dies due to evil thoughts, but what does this have to do with me? I looked up at Feng Junzi with questioning eyes. Feng Junzi saw my question and came over and said sneakily: "In fact, there has been a qigong circulating in society, called *. It is said that it can protect health and lose weight. After reading it, I realized that it evolved from the Buddhist Bone View. These four words * are allusions in "Dream of Red Mansions". I went to read "Dream of Red Mansions" and found a solution."

"Do you want me to practice that * qigong? Isn't it that after learning it, I'm still a white bone view?"

Feng Junzi shook his head: "Although you are not stupid now, you are not as smart as Cao Xueqin. Have you not read what you said in the book? This * is a red and pink skeleton, but the front-line photo is a vivid and fragrant! I didn't want you to take a back-line photo, can you just take a straight photo? You can come out of the realm of the white bones and straighten the flesh and cauldron."

"What? You asked me to take a photo! Isn't that the same as Jia Rui in the book? Jia Rui is dead! Besides, where can I go to find that *?"

Feng Junzi's head kept shook: "No, no, no, how could you be Jia Rui? I will teach you a mental method. As long as you do it according to my requirements, there will be no problem. As for *, of course I don't know where to find that thing. I don't know whether there is one in the world. But you have the Qingming Mirror! The Qingming Mirror is of infinite use. As long as you use the Buddhist Yuanguang Mirror magic, the Qingming Mirror can be as useful as the * in "Dream of Red Mansions". I have not studied much about Buddhist Taoism, but I just know that the Yuanguang Mirror... there is no problem!"
