Early in the morning of the second day, Wei Zhongdao rushed to Liangfu, called Ma Yue and Cai Yan, and the three of them drove to the White Horse Temple.

Today's driving is different from yesterday's, the horse cart is majestic, but too ostentatious for fear of others dislike.

Don't you see, as at the beginning, the highway, Meng De's generation, are just Tsing Yi fast horses going out, can their own Ma San'er be stronger than them?

Like Yuan Shu, who is so pompous and arrogant, the insolent young man, now that he has a hint of reserve as Henan Yin, Ma Yue is never willing to be so public.

Therefore, today Cai Yan went out in a two-horse car, this kind of car can sit two people, but the normal one person can drive and one person ride, no umbrella cover and no pattern, it is a common means of transportation in Luoyang, very simple.

Ma Yue only wore three layers of linen clothes and hung a Xiping ring and went out today.

In these years, it is not easy to do anything, it is not easy to be an official, and it is not easy for the people to do it.

The news that Liang Hu was about to be decentralized, almost everyone knew that Liang Hu would still return to the capital. In this way, not only Liang Hu, but also Mrs. Pei and Uncle Zhang, who went down to the gatekeeper, Xu Huang Anmu, who was in charge, and Ma Yue, who was famous, all became the targets of other people's gifts. It's a lot of fun.

Seeing that at the end of the year, if you send some local products, it will be enough, and the gold bracelets and jade jewelry that are sent, the family is unwilling to ask, but it is difficult to refuse, and it is difficult to send people away without hurting their faces.

Cao Poshi of the Northern Army sent people to Ma Yue to send such a small ring of Xiping, the whole body is four feet, the blade is three feet three, the handle is seven inches, and the tail of the knife is an inch long small ring, which was cast in the Xiping period, and can break the double layer of leather armor with one slash. Seeing this knife, Ma Yue involuntarily withdrew the hand he was about to push out.

Xiyuan served in the Jiang Lan, sent someone to give Liang Hu a tiger servant pen, tiger servant, is a rare animal that looks like a leopard, grew in Liaodong, the pen made of fur is extraordinarily precious, can be met but not sought. Such a pen also made Liang Hu embarrassed to accept it.

This kind of thing that can be met but not sought, where can you refuse?

Everyone went straight to the White Horse Temple outside the east gate of Luoyang.

Along the royal road, there were almost no travelers traveling with them when they first left the city, and when they ran out of five or six miles, the number of pedestrians on the road gradually increased.

Walk to the outside of the temple, this is really lively, only to see dozens of cars parked on both sides of the temple gate, the horse is tied on the door post, the people below the red lacquered courtyard wall are like weaving, the monks come and go, there are Han people and people from the Western Regions, the hair curly and barefoot robes are the Yueshi people, and the long-haired beard and legs are the people of the rest country...... Coming and going, the monks wore robes to and fro to solve puzzles, and the incense smoke lit by the incense was around the beams, which was really full of people.

Ma Yue asked unconsciously: "Why is this White Horse Temple so lively?" ”

"Brother Ma, don't you listen to Buddha in Liangzhou?"

Listen to the Buddha? Ma Yue had only heard Dong Zhuo ask him if he listened to the Buddha, but where had he seen someone talking about the Buddha, and said with a smile: "If the person who listens to the Buddha can send two sheep, it is estimated that many people in Liangzhou will listen." ”

"Haha!" Wei Zhongdao clapped his hands and smiled: "Brother Ma is pragmatic. ”

It's just that Cai Yan glanced at Ma Yue unhappily, and said patiently: "This White Horse Temple in Luoyang originated from a dream I had with Emperor Xiaoming. ”

"What dream?"

"Emperor Xiaoming had a night to stay in the South Palace, dreamed that there were six zhang Jin people flying from the west, woke up and summoned the ministers, there was a very knowledgeable minister said that it may be the Buddha of the Western Regions, so he sent someone to the Western Regions to invite Shamen, to the White Horse Sutra back, and later in order to commemorate the White Horse Sutra set up an official temple, so far more than 100 years in several generations of Shamen translated more than 300 volumes of scriptures, last year there was Shamen translated the "Prajna Samadhi Sutra", is a well-deserved first dojo."

Ma Yue's head was big when he heard it, Emperor Xiaoming, this is all a matter of where! After so many years in the west, Ma Yue didn't really see a bald monk coming over with a scripture on his back, so he had to say stupidly: "How do you know this?" ”

"Actually, the slave family doesn't know, what I saw in the Book of Han, didn't Ma Jun read the Book of Han?"

"The Book of Han? I have read it, I have read it...... There are six hand-to-hand fights in the Art and Literature Chronicles. ”

Six articles of hand-to-hand fighting, or Liang Hu came back from Dongguan to him before the Yellow Turban, a thin small volume, it will not take long to read it, telling the key points in hand-to-hand fighting skills, and later Ma Yue used the above method to fall Guan Yu's fall.

"Read six pages...... Can you also count it as having read it? ”

In Cai Yan's heart, Ma Yue has always been a scarface general who is a man of few words and can devour the enemy alive on the battlefield, although he has heard the story of him and his deceased wife, and knows that this junior brother still has a trace of softness in his heart, but he always feels that this fierce Liangzhou man is a little unkind.

The lieutenant with a rank of 2,000 stones in the year of the crown is a first-class young talent in the eyes of the world, even in the eyes of the Yuan brothers, although some look down on him, they will not deny this.

But in Cai Yan's eyes, she always heard how majestic Ma Yue was rumored by others, but she inevitably felt in her heart that he was a little unlearned and unskilled.

I have only read six pages of Hanshu, and I can't learn how to teach Hanqin.

This is a rough man, who does not know elegant things, and only knows the things of swordsmen.

Cai Yan had a little good impression of Ma Yuegang in his heart, and he went down again. Such a man is certainly heroic on the battlefield, but if he enters the house, life is too boring.

Ma Yue scratched his head and asked Wei Zhongdao, "Zhongdao, what books have you read?" ”

"I can't remember clearly, why did Brother Ma suddenly ask this?" Wei Zhongdao pointed his fingers and said: "Needless to say, the Book of Poetry, Books and Rites is a childhood enlightenment book. Later, I read Hanshu, Zuo Chuan, and then I listened to Yuefu, listened to poetry, and recently I was learning "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", more than 100 volumes of large and small. ”

Ma Yue shook his head, when he was young, he felt that reading was useless, he had seen so much modern knowledge in his mind, could it be that he had to re-learn ancient Chinese? He thought that all he lacked was the savagery that this age should have.

Eight years have passed since he first carried an axe to Zhangshan.

It took him eight years to learn the barbarism of this era, and he was too partial to barbarism to think that he could be so barbaric that he didn't need civilization.

He was wrong.

He is already barbaric enough, so barbaric that he allows himself to integrate into the collective of martial artists, the state of Liangzhou, but he is not civilized enough, which makes it difficult for him to integrate into the literate circle, and many of his friends are illiterate, and he can only watch others export chapters.

"Senior brother, in addition to the six articles of hand-to-hand combat, what else have you read?"

"I read some calligraphy inscriptions, and the first book I read was "Liutao" when I was twelve years old, and then I read the Spring and Autumn Period when I was under my husband, as well as military books such as "Sun Wuzi" and "Gongsun Marting". His Majesty sent someone to give me a gift in Luoyang Tingwei Prison, and the six articles of hand-to-hand combat are the copies of Mr. from Dongguan to find someone to expand. That's all. ”

"Brother Ma reads all military books, ahem! What is your ideal? Meritorious service? ”

"Meritorious service? Nakado saw me too superficially. Ma Yue smiled, he didn't want to make any meritorious contributions. He said: "I want the people of Liangzhou to stop dying of soldiers and hunger, I want the children to not have to carry knives to the battlefield before the crown, I want my family to continue, and I want the future generations to be glorified." ”

Swing and stop!
