Chapter 208: Writing the Heart Sutra

Just when the construction of each company was in full swing, the boss Tagawa disappeared after a tour of each company. He ran to the martial arts house in the old sea to see Xiaohui go.

Before going to Xiaohui's house, Tian Chuan first went to Jin City, ran a big circle from the Education Bureau to the Prime Minister's Middle School, and completed Xiaohui's application for the Prime Minister's Middle School during the high school entrance examination.

Premier Middle School is one of the last middle schools in Tsu City, and it is quite strict with the selection of students. Although Tian Chuan entrusted the relationship with the alumni, he still did not get the quota for Xiaohui to enter the school directly, and the school only promised to give Xiaohui a fair opportunity to apply for the examination, which has satisfied Tian Chuan, and he believes that with Xiaohui's results, there is no problem in being admitted to this famous middle school.

The school has an experimental class, which is the top class. To attend this class, you not only need to have excellent results in the high school entrance examination, but also pass the school's internal selection exam. The selection exams are due to take place next week, and the time is already very tight.

When I signed up, I filled out the form with the requirements for being good at subjects and level descriptions, and Tagawa thought about it carefully and wrote down English, speaking fluently, and having a vocabulary of level 6 or above.

There is also a specialty project, and Tagawa fills in prose writing, and attaches the published physical book and the website of Wanlixing.

In fact, Xiaohui is good in all subjects, and she can basically get full marks in all science subjects. Under Tagawa's guidance, Megumi has taught herself most of the high school courses in mathematics and physics, and her good study habits have made learning very easy for her.

After contacting the school, Tagawa cleaned up the house prepared for Xiaohui and bought new bedding and tableware. This house was renovated after the Spring Festival when Tagawa went to Europe, and the decoration inherited Tagawa's concept of convenience and aesthetics, which is simple and atmospheric. Tagawa knows Megumi's living habits and preferences, and Megumi will like such a house.

After inspecting the house, Tian Chuan went to the Agricultural College to see Shen Fenglian, told her the news that the house had been renovated, and took her to see it. Shen Fenglian has to go back once or twice a week because she is working on a research project in Tian Chuan, so it is much more convenient to live in the city. Tian Chuan had already told her early on about living with Xiaohui, and Shen Fenglian had no opinion on this. Xiaohui is responsible for all the food and accommodation expenses in the house, and the only request that Tagawa make to her is that she can't bring people to live in casually, both men and women.

After meeting Shen Fenglian, Tian Chuan went to Xiao Hui's house that afternoon.

Xiaohui was a little unhappy that Tian Chuan took Xu Jingyi to Europe but didn't take her, but she was soon coaxed by Tian Chuan's promise to take her to the United States to watch the Olympics during the summer vacation, and she didn't expect that Xu Jingyi would definitely go with her at that time.

The gifts that Tagawa brought back from Europe were mainly luxury goods and gemstones, as well as some books and film dramas. In addition, he gave Xiaohui all the photos and videos he took, as well as his travelogue, so that Xiaohui did a spiritual trip to Europe.

Tagawa stayed at the samurai house for five days, instructing Megumi in her homework and preparing for the upcoming trial for the experimental class selection exam at Prime Minister Junior High School. Over the course of five days, Tagawa roughly instilled the concepts of calculus and linear algebra into Megumi, and he guessed that he might encounter questions in this category in the exams of the experimental class.

Five days later, on a Saturday, Tagawa drove Megumi to the selection test for the experimental class. The content of the examination consists of two parts: a written test and an interview, and the written test consists of four comprehensive tests, namely mathematics, Chinese, English and science, while the Chinese test includes part of the history and geography content, which is actually similar to the comprehensive liberal arts.

Xiaohui's school didn't offer geography, history, biology and other subjects other than the high school entrance examination at all, but fortunately, Tian Chuan helped her make up for the biology course. Because of the need for writing, Xiaohui read a lot of books on history, geography and humanities, and played freely in the exam, and actually did well.

Four exams were completed in one day, and the next day there were interviews and the results of the written test were announced. Prime Minister's Middle School recruits experimental classes, in fact, it prepares one class for arts and sciences, and uses the same set of questions for the exam, but it is not explained to the applicants. Among the more than 200 applicants who took the exam, Xiaohui's score ranked fourth in the science direction, ninth in the liberal arts direction, and ranked first in the overall score. I was admitted to two classes at the same time.

During the interview, the teacher asked Xiaohui about her preferred study direction, and Xiaohui unexpectedly chose science. The teacher in charge of the interview asked strangely: "Wu Xiaohui, I see that the specialties and hobbies you filled in the registration form are all in the direction of liberal arts, why do you choose a science class?"

Xiaohui said: "Because the learning content of science is easier to quantify, the future college entrance examination results are more certain." And the liberal arts I can teach myself in my spare time. ”

"Are you so confident in your ability to learn on your own?"

"Yes. I studied history, geography, biology, high school and university on my own, and I studied English on my own. ”

At this time, an English teacher asked in English, "Can you tell us how you learned English?"

Xiaohui said: "There is no shortcut to learning English, my method is to watch TV dramas and communicate more, memorize more words, and learn in applications. ”

"Where is the environment of your application?"

"Internet voice chat, phone calls, I usually chat with Brother Tagawa and Sister Jingyi in English, and I have a few friends in the United States, and sometimes I also call or communicate online. When I was alone, I brought myself into the TV series and followed. ”

Xiaohui easily passed the interview and was preliminarily admitted to the experimental class. She also has to take the high school entrance examination, but as long as the high school entrance examination score is not too bad, she can go to a general key high school, and in the Prime Minister's Middle School, she is considered to be admitted to school.

For the entrance examination of the pilot class, Koemi, at the suggestion of Tagawa, asked the school for a month off, and it took less than two weeks to prepare for the exam, as well as to prepare for the study and living conditions in Tsu City. In the remaining two weeks, Tagawa plans to take Megumi out for a ride.

Xiaohui was very happy, this was the first time she had gone out alone with Brother Tagawa, without Sister Jingyi by her side. Tian Chuan asked where Xiao Hui wanted to go, Xiao Hui had no opinions, and said that as long as she was with Tian Chuan's brother, she could go anywhere. In the end, Tian Chuan came up with the idea, the two of them went to Ningbo first, then to Putuo Mountain, then took a plane to Hunan to visit Dongting Lake, and finally went to Dali in Yunnan to see several famous scenic spots in the south.

In the past two years in junior high school, Xiaohui has spent a lot of energy on her studies and maintained her academic performance at an excellent level. By now, her study habits have been formed, and her studies have become much easier. And now that it has been determined that you can go to the experimental class of Prime Minister's Middle School after the high school entrance examination, you can relax without the pressure of the high school entrance examination. Go out and have a good time, just in time to take a break.

Tagawa remembered how he felt when he tried to write a travelogue in Europe this time, and he was really a little helpless. It's quite easy to watch Xiaohui write a travelogue, casually, and an article is written. But when I wrote it at the time, I spent a lot of brains, stumbling to finish a paragraph, and sending it after repeated revisions, but the popularity was completely incomparable to when Xiaohui wrote about the United States at that time. If it weren't for those relatively wonderful photos, the travelogues he wrote would have basically not been read. This time I went out with Xiaohui, and by the way, I learned how to write with her to see if I could write such wonderful things.

After agreeing on the itinerary, Tian Chuan and Xiaohui said hello to their families respectively, got on the plane, and flew directly to Shanghai. After a night's rest from Shanghai, take a boat and head to Putuo Mountain. Visiting, excursing, and worshipping the Buddha, it took almost a day to complete the entire itinerary in Putuoshan Island. Before leaving, as if he had been summoned by something, Tagawa called Koe, who was walking in front, and the two returned to Kannon-in Temple together.

At this time, the monks in the temple were chanting the Heart Sutra in unison, and Tian Chuan also chanted it in a low voice with the crowd, and then borrowed pen and paper from the monks and the table, and immediately wrote the Heart Sutra in block letters that he usually did not use. The feeling he had before he wrote the Heart Sutra at the Eight Great Places last year came to mind. At this time, unlike that time, now Xiaohui is by his side, really staying with him, so that his heart will rise infinite gratitude to the Buddha and Bodhisattva.

This is the second time he wrote the Heart Sutra, this time the scriptures written, the font font is dignified and vigorous, and the words seem to contain the meaning of the Bodhisattva's compassion, which makes people reverence at first sight, and can feel the sense of the call of the Buddha and Bodhisattva when they read it.

After the completion of writing the scriptures, Tian Chuan still did not pay the money as last time, but only invested 100,000 yuan and asked the monks to help print and disseminate. At the same time, he donated 100,000 yuan of incense money to the temple.

Tian Chuan's donation is a relatively large donation, and an old monk in the temple came out to meet Tian Chuan. The old monk neither asked Tian Chuan's name nor introduced his own name, and after reading the Heart Sutra written by Tian Chuan, Heshi said, "Amitabha." The donor is a person who is destined for the Buddha, and the great wish is injected into the calligraphy, and the scriptures written can be regarded as the treasure of my Buddhism, which should be preserved in my temple for a long time. This is the second time we've met, and we'll see you again. After speaking, he put down the "Heart Sutra" he had written, turned around and went back to the temple.

The Heart Sutra written by Tagawa this time was still printed by photoplates, and the first batch of 22,000 copies were printed and distributed in the temple. The day of distribution coincided with Guanyin's birthday on March 19 of the lunar calendar, and it was snatched up by the majority of believers. The original handwriting of Tagawa was framed by the monks of the temple and exhibited in front of the Kannon Hall in the temple. Tagawa only received two printed scriptures as gifts from the temple, and he collected them separately from Xiaohui after inscribed on them, and later the two got married, and the two scriptures were put together.

In addition, the 100,000 yuan in cash donated by Tagawa to the temple was used to engrave the Heart Sutra in Tagawa's handwriting on the rocks outside the temple at the suggestion of the old monk, which was later called the Second Heart Sutra. Last year, the Heart Sutra that Tian Chuan wrote in the eight major places in the capital is called the One Heart Sutra.
