Chapter 504. White Jade Toad

Seeing that he was about to learn the secret of this ancient tomb, Lin Yi was very excited, his hands trembled a little, and he carefully read the last preface---

First of all, Lin Yi's first feeling is that the text and pen and ink of this "post-preface" are very different from the content and penmanship of the previous hand-copied "Finger Mystery Chapter". Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

How to say it, the previous hand-copied "Finger Xuan" penmanship, in the eyes of Lin Yi, a calligraphy expert, vertical and horizontal, quite a bit of immortal spirit, but the calligraphy in front of him is a little gorgeous, a little impetuous taste. In other words, the preface and the preface were written by two people.

The one who copied this "Finger Mystery Chapter" in the front was a master of calligraphy, and the one who added this preface later was much weaker in calligraphy.

With such doubts, Lin Yi took a closer look---

The general meaning of the preface is that his surname is Zhang, his name is Zhang Jushan, the word Deren, he was originally a child of a wealthy family in the Central Plains, because he was born weak, he could not get fame, so he wanted to cultivate the truth and attain the Tao, the pursuit of longevity, so he traveled a long distance and worshiped the Yuchan Taoist of Wuyi Mountain as a teacher. The Jade Toad Taoist said that his qualifications were dull, and because of his fine clothes and food, he could not be pure-hearted and had few desires, and he would not be able to achieve great results in cultivation.

He didn't listen to his master's advice, he still devoted himself to the Tao, and after more than ten years, he still hadn't explored the path of cultivation. couldn't help but be disappointed, and then began to indulge himself, wine ponds and meat forests, and have fun. Until he was seriously ill and dying, he lamented that the fairy road was groundless, too ethereal, and he should still be happy in time, so he asked his family to bury him, and even let the beauties come to the funeral, so that when he went to the underground of Huangquan, he could still enjoy everything in the world.

As for this "Finger Mystery Chapter", it was given to him by the master Yu Chan Daoren after hand-copying, and he was ashamed of his teacher's teaching, not a climate, so he wanted to bury this manuscript as a cherished burial object and buried it in the ground.

Finally, on the last page of this manuscript, Zhang Jushan used a bold pen to write four big characters, and it was obvious that --- immortal path had no evidence.

……

After reading this postscript, Lin Yi couldn't help but sigh, first lamenting that this tomb advocates doing good deeds from a cultivator who is bent on seeking the Tao to a wicked person who is comfortable and enjoyable, and even buries the living, and the mentality has changed so much that it can be said that it is incredible.

However, what made Lin Yi even more amazed was the master he worshipped--- Yu Toad Daoren, who was a cattle man in the Southern Song Dynasty.

However, compared to his fame in the cultivation path, Lin Yi clearly remembered that this jade toad Taoist was more famous for his calligraphy.

In the calligraphy world, people like to call him "White Immortal", "Jade Toad Immortal", or "White Jade Toad". He was born in the Southern Song Dynasty and was smart and studious since he was a child. At the age of seven, he was able to recite the Six Classics and recite poems. At the age of twelve, the examiner asked him to write the poem "Loom", and he blurted out: "The earth, mountains and rivers are looms, and flowers are like brocade willows and silk." Make a horse in the void, and the sun and the moon fly out of the sky. "It has the reputation of 'prodigy'. He can write and paint, and is good at seal carving. Cursive writing and plum bamboo, especially appreciated by famous artists. "When he was wandering in Luofu Mountain, he worshipped Chen Nan, a Cuixu Taoist, as his teacher. Chen Nan carefully taught the Neidan Method to Bai Yuchan, and took him and two other proud disciples to Wuyi Mountain to cultivate the Tao, which lasted for nine years. Chen Nan passed on to the "Shenxiao Thunder Method" and the "Five Thunder Book" before "Hydrolysis". Since then, Bai Yuchan has become a descendant of the Southern Sect of Taoism.

Bai Yuchan devoted his life to spreading Dan Taoism, recruiting disciples, and once founded a religious organization named after "Jing", which was recognized by the government and formed the actual founder of the Southern Sect of the Inner Dan School of Taoism. His Neidan theory, following the tradition of the Southern Sect, advocates celibacy and pure cultivation, physical and physical strength, and never marries. He took refining and refining qi, refining qi and transforming gods, and refining gods to return to emptiness as the core, mixing Confucianism and Zen theory, "the heart through the three teachings, learning through the nine streams", this idea made Taoism after the Song and Yuan dynasties was greatly influenced. In addition, he also "participated in the big cave dharma, pursued the great law of all families, and was unique in the thunder method", and often performed the thunder spell to exorcise evil spirits and cure diseases, eliminate demons and catch monsters. After the autopsy became an immortal, he was named "Ziqing Zhenren", and the world respected him as "Mr. Ziqing".

In the history of calligraphy, Bai Yuchan originally did not mean to be here, but with his talent and otherworldly temperament, when he drank wildly but was not drunk, he often took advantage of the wine to impromptu waves, so that his calligraphy art has reached an amazing height, and firmly occupies a place in the history of calligraphy. For example, his calligraphy work "Tian Lang Qi Qing" is now in the National Palace Museum in Taipei, known as a "national treasure" and is invaluable.

It can be said that calligraphy may only be a medium for Bai Yuchan, a medium to express his spiritual world. Bai Yuchan devoted his life to cultivating the truth and preaching, pursuing the harmony and perfection of the spiritual world, and in his short life, this has always been his main business. Calligraphy, on the other hand, is just an unintentional by-product of his talents, or just a tool that he has at his fingertips. But perhaps it is precisely this that responds to what Dongpo said, "At the beginning of the book, it is not intended to be good, it is Jiaer", Bai Yuchan has no intention of calligraphy, but calligraphy still loves him. So much so that he became a master of the calligraphy world.

It can be said that whether it is as one of the five ancestors of the Southern Sect of Taoism, or as a generation of masters in the book world, Bai Yu Toad --- Jade Toad Daoist are enough to make this manuscript a rare treasure.

……

Just when Lin Yi was thinking deeply about the hand-copied "Finger Mystery Chapter" in his hand that he had repaired with aura, he suddenly heard someone outside exclaiming: "I have found that there is something --- underground!" ”

This exclamation, like a giant bell, directly woke Lin Yi up from his contemplation, and he couldn't help but be excited, could it be that the "tomb within a tomb" was finally discovered by the archaeological team?

Don't talk about Lin Yi, what is more nervous than Lin Yi is Captain Zhang Boyuan Zhang. Before, he heard Lin Yi say that there was probably an ancient tomb buried under this ancient tomb, and there might be precious archaeological discoveries, and he was still a little skeptical, but now that his team members said that there was really something underground, his heart immediately lifted.

As a member of the archaeological team, you have dealt with ancient tombs, dead people, and cultural relics all your life, and it is difficult to get involved with fame and fortune, unless you excavate the Mawangdui in Changsha, or what Xin Chai's tomb, then maybe your name will be engraved in the archaeological history of China.

Because as a very old archaeological team member and the captain of this archaeological team, Zhang Boyuan also has a flame burning in his heart that wants to become famous.

As long as he can make a huge breakthrough in the archaeology of the ancient tomb this time, then the team he leads will become famous in one fell swoop, and his name Zhang Boyuan will also appear in major magazines such as "Archaeology" and become a celebrity in the industry.

I remember that the famous writer Zhang Ailing during the Republic of China once said, "Become famous as soon as possible", and now he Zhang Boyuan is forty-three years old, can it be said that today's opportunity has really come?

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a fire in his heart. (To be continued.) )
