Chapter 5: Red pine nuts visit the vault in a dream
Since then, Zijian has been fully energetic, in addition to the necessary family business, he has devoted himself to cultivating Zimo. After talking about these many books, Zimo can basically recite them immediately, and the meaning of the text can also be transparent. The text has "Shangshu", "Ziyu Jurisprudence", Wu has "Liutao", and "Guanzi" and so on.
Although some of the books have not yet been fully circulated at this time, Zi Jian's accumulation of traveling all over the world can also be fully recorded, and at this moment, all of them are trickled into Zimo's brain. In his spare time, he told Zimo about the deeds of the ancient figures one by one, and interspersed with some knowledge that he had learned from the great sages of the world between classes, and combined theory with practice.
At the age of less than ten, this Zimo has learned all these book knowledge, and what is missing is only a deeper understanding and social experience.
In this village, everyone knows that Zijian's family has produced a great doll, and word of mouth spreads, one to two, two to four, four to eight, and the news has reached the ears of a great person.
This master, but it is not simple, the name Zuo Sheng, known as Chi Songzi, is the former Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, the later Qi Yao Shun, the famous emperor through the ages.
There was a case. Legend has it that the Yellow Emperor once asked what is the best truth in the world about red pine nuts. Chi Songzi replied: "When people practice good and evil, it naturally starts from their hearts. The heart is the seedling of the five thieves and the root of all evil, and the heart of man is ready to do good deeds, although the good deeds have not yet been completed, but the good gods have sensed them; Evil thoughts arise in the heart, and although the evil deeds have not yet occurred, the evil gods already know about them. Therefore, a gentleman does good deeds for a thousand days, but the good has not been cultivated, and if he does evil for a moment, he will have more than enough evil. As for transcending one's duty to seize and annex, it also begins with the inner exhaustion; There are gains and losses, and they must be in the way of heaven. If you have the intention of harming others, you may not be able to succeed, so life and death, ups and downs, are all determined by fate. ”
In a few simple sentences, the state of good and evil in the human heart has been described very clearly.
There is another case. The Yellow Emperor asked the wise men of the red pine nuts which ranks. Chi Songzi replied: "There are three classes of wise men, and they are all benevolent people. The superior wise man is well versed in astronomy, knows geography, understands without learning, understands without teaching, memorizes without forgetting, can distinguish between music and rhythm, distinguishes between sages and fools, has compassion and mercy, does not despise others, understands the opportunity of success and failure, knows advance and retreat, and distinguishes between survival and death. Such a person, even if he is poor, will eventually be rich; Even if you are humble for a while, you will eventually be noble, and this is the superior wise man. A moderate wise man has a thorough understanding of the scriptures, always maintains respectful etiquette, sees the wise and thinks together, helps the weak and the weak, does not regret giving favors, does not lack loyalty and filial piety, does not hurt others with his words, and is humble and humble. This kind of person does not need to learn, but will eventually become enlightened, and even if he is not noble, he will eventually be able to attain it, and this is a medium wise man. A wise man of the inferior class who has changed his past mistakes and practiced for the future, who wants to learn when he hears that he does not know, who is convinced of the retribution of good and evil, who does not infringe on the property of others, who protects his life, who cherishes his body, who understands reason, who understands grammar, who is strong in his own ability but who is able to empathize with those who are poor, will naturally be afraid of catastrophe and decay. Such prudence and no fault will not suffer unexpected calamities, this is the inferior wise man. ”
A few very concise sentences, but it contains the truth of being a man, the road is simple, and it is exactly like this, and being a man is also like this. It can also be seen that this red pine nut is very extraordinary.
But said that this red pine nut, in addition to the education of the point, a skill can be magical, since the Tao, long living in Kunlun, occasionally to the mortal world to walk a time, meet the heart of the person, pass on some skills, educate the world.
On this day, the red pine nut was in Kunlun to transport Zhoutian, absorbing the aura of heaven and earth, suddenly on a whim, pinched his fingers, and then fixed his eyes to look at the east in the distance, but saw that there was a colorful lightning in the sky somewhere thousands of miles away. shouted in his heart: Great goodness, it seems that there are strange people in this land of China, and new people can be added in Kunlun.
After careful recalculation, he found that the strange man was too young, and decided to postpone the search for a few years. The years went by, and six years passed, and Chi Songzi once again calculated that the strange man should be about nine to ten years old this year, so he decided to go out and have a look. Driving the auspicious clouds to step on the fog, out of the Kunlun secret realm all the way east.
When this red pine nut flew to Yunmengze (now Dongting Lake), he looked down, his heart moved, the corners of his mouth smiled, he landed, stood on the tip of a reed, and wore a dark green robe fluttering in the wind. The reed, like a sharp arrow, shook the lake and scattered, revealing the huge body of a monster at the bottom of the lake, nailed to the rock beside the monster. When the monster saw that someone disturbed its rest, it was furious, and its body moved, and suddenly the water surface was like a tsunami, and a dull roar was transmitted from the bottom of the water to the sky. The monster moved again, and a cloud of water formed under it, and with a flap of its tail, it left the water, and its two big eyes like copper bells glanced around. Chi Songzi looked at the monster intently, but it was a dragon, ten zhang long, and the body was floating, and the water clouds were rolling. The monster is also looking for, only to see a person standing on the reeds, like a dragonfly, the dragon is also carefully looking at the red pine nuts, the big nostrils from time to time spewed out a white mist, maybe this dragon has a sense that the person in front of him is not simple, he is not an opponent, if you are not careful, this time there will be trouble, slowly rolling clouds calm down.
Feeling the change in Jiaolong's mentality, Chi Songzi smiled and said, "I didn't expect you, Jiaolong, to have a lot of spirituality, and you also know how to avoid evil." ”
As if the dragon could understand, its huge head moved up and down a few times. Seeing the movements of this dragon, Chi Songzi said again: "This time I have a good life and cultivation here, don't do unprovoked killing thoughts, and don't hurt innocent human beings, if you do evil, someone will accept you, if you are good, someone will cross you, do you understand?" ”
The dragon nodded again and again, as if flattering, the big tail rolled, and a piece of green jade was rolled up from the bottom of the lake, and it was held in its big mouth and sent to the red pine nut.
"Hahahaha, I didn't expect you to understand human feelings." Picked up the piece of green jade and looked at it, nodded and said, "No wonder you have such spirituality, there is such a spiritual stone in the lake." After that, he threw the spirit stone at Jiaolong again, "You have a good collection of this spirit stone, and you can also cultivate yourself, maybe someone will come to him one day, and you will become enlightened, and then you can give him the spirit stone if you want." ”
Jiaolong nodded gratefully at Chi Songzi, and his head rubbed against Chi Songzi.
Chi Songzi patted the dragon horn, flew up and landed on the dragon horn, the dragon seemed to understand what he was thinking, his body circled, flew fast against the surface of the lake, and soon took the red pine nut to the center of Yunmengze, which is also the deepest part of Yunmengze. Chi Songzi stared at the water, did not do contemplation, waved his hands, and saw that the lake water seemed to have an invisible big hand, separating it, forming a cylindrical vacuum zone, a burst of operation, digging a hole on a boulder, the layout is very simple, there is only a stone table, a stone bed, a stone door, thought about it, took out a jade plate from the body, a few volumes of books, and threw them on the bed, and took out a night pearl, placed a corner, this cave suddenly had light. After some arrangement, Chi Songzi looked at it, was more satisfied, closed the door of the cave, made a formation, and made an enchantment to prevent the lake from backing up.
After arranging the arrangement, Chi Songzi came to the lake and said to Jiaolong: "From today on, you will be here to guard, waiting for the destined person." In addition, you are specially allowed to cause some calamities here after five years, but not to harm human life, to attract those who are destined, and if anyone can submit to you, you will bring him here, otherwise you do not have to. ”
Jiaolong saw the means of the red pine nuts, and when he heard this, his heart was full of joy, and he happily swam around the red pine nuts a few times. Seeing Jiaolong's well-behavedness, Chi Songzi also liked it very much, patted the dragon's horn and said: "Good life cultivation, if you and I have a fate, or we can meet Kunlun, there is still one of your elders there." After speaking, he didn't wait for Jiaolong to reply, and took off into the air and took off the clouds.
The dragon saw the red pine nuts leaving, and looked at the distant clouds until they disappeared, and then plunged into the lake, and suddenly the lake surface churned, and after a long time, the lake was calm.
After the red pine nut left Yunmengze, it flew east along the Yangtze River, on this day, it came to the mouth of the Yangtze River, and then turned south, and came to a hill on the border of the country, the mountain has no steep mountains, no strange peaks, but it has its own tour flavor. Standing on the main peak, overlooking the mountains, Chi Songzi remembered decades ago, a trip here, for this place scenery attracted, stay and visit, have to meet a strange person in the world, that person learned his identity and then reported himself to the Qi people, surnamed Sun Mingwu, the word Changqing, in this West Mountain recess to form a grass house, concentrate on research, write the art of war. That Sun Wu once gave two of the volumes to watch, it is indeed a strange book that will never come out, and talked with it, this Sun Wu in the war with the military views are very transparent, defeat the enemy, the army is dangerous, to the weak to control the strong, all kinds of methods, all said the head is the Tao, at that time Chi Songzi both asserted that if this book is handed down, it will become a holy book of military science.
Looking around the mountains, the grass house that Sun Wu built back then is still there, but it is empty, and the walls and roofs have been dilapidated. fluttering, red pine nuts paced to the grass house, started to repair the grass house, put a book on the grass step, and left the handwriting: "The people of the past are gone, the old people are coming now, you have not returned to the house, leave a bamboo slip, if you return, you can learn it, or there is a wonder." ”
Leave the grass house, and then come to the top of the main peak, enjoy the scenery here, can't help but chant a long song: "The strange man Sun Wu has left the mountain, this mountain should be the ownerless mountain, it is difficult to survive without the owner and no name, there is a red pine according to the shape of the knot, the sky-shaped dome is pale, the mountain has a middle ridge edge sagging, the lake enters the earth in the west, and the shape is like a dome for its name." After chanting, he said to himself, "This mountain will be called Qionglong Mountain in the future, and this mountain can give birth to a strange book, which is enough to be called a mountain of wisdom." Turned around and found a piece of bluestone, to make a pen with a finger, brush brush, for a while, the stone powder flew, after a while, the three big characters "Qionglong Mountain" were carved and written, and there were a few rows of small characters next to it, which was the content of the chant just now.
After carving the name of the mountain, the red pine nut leaned over and took some red stone grease, picked up some notoginseng, codonopsis and other medicines, wrapped them into a package, and said to himself: "I originally wanted to come here to see my old friend, and by the way, I treated the old turtle, but unfortunately the old friend never saw it, and only saw the old turtle." ”
With that, he flew up and flew towards the west side of the Dome Mountain. Chi Songzi did not expect that he just gave this mountain a name and took some red stone resin, which was recorded by later generations in the "Yue Jue Shu • Wu Di Biography", which recorded: "The red stone resin taken by the ancient red pine nuts from Zhong Qionglong Mountain." ”
In addition, there is a lake not far from the west of the Qionglong Mountain, and the world calls it Guquze (now Taihu Lake).
This area is shaped like a jellyfish head, and it belongs to the same ancient Jiuze as that Yunmengze, the water surface is broad, boundless, and the lake is extremely sinister. I don't know its sinister people, step on it, the mud is enough to be gone, there is no escape, if you know, find the sand and gravel bottom into the water, the water is incomparably clear, and there is more Qimei Taihu Lake stone at the bottom of the lake, many holes, many strange shapes, the ancients said: "Scattered and complex Cui Wei, a pile of jade." Feng Piao's cactus came out, and the sword door opened. "Although this Taihu Lake stone is beautiful, but at the bottom of the lake, it is not a good thing for those who go into the water. This area is surrounded by reeds on all sides, water birds are hidden in it, an island in the lake, a hill stands, the mountain is shaped, and the scenery is also very exquisite, called the ethereal peak.
At this time, there was no one on the ethereal peak, an attic on the top of the mountain seemed to be robbed, collapsed to the ground, a row of corridors on the south side of the ethereal peak, as if burned, tattered, from the traces of the burning, when it happened not long ago, Chi Songzi saw this, and sighed: "Soldiers, the right also; Profit, woe! Pacing to the front of the pavilion, the attic plaque can be vaguely discerned, called "Moon Pavilion". "Looking at the moon, looking at the Yue, this husband is really amorous, in order to take the favor of Xi Shi, he did not hesitate to build this Moon Pavilion, just to facilitate Xi Shi to overlook the ethereal peak south of the lake in the hometown of Yue Country to provide a place, who thinks, all the mirrors and water."
Ignoring these inexplicable disputes in the world, Chi Songzi came to the lake at the foot of the mountain, looked at Gu Quze, and after looking at it for a long time, he was lucky and shouted: "Golden horn old turtle, where is it now?" Red pine nuts are here, come and see you quickly. The sound was peculiar, and it was only heard below the water's surface, but no one heard it anywhere else. But when the sound fell underwater, it was rumbling like the Nine Heavens Thunder.
It is said that in a grotto under the water of this district, an old turtle is lying prone and resting there, this old turtle is huge, lying prone there, like a house, not moving like a hill, its back is covered with green algae, and it has not moved for a long time. The old turtle was resting, and suddenly there was a rumbling sound on the water, "Red pine nuts are here, come and see you quickly!" Suddenly the old turtle woke up, stretched out his head the size of a millstone and looked at the water. This head is not the same as that of ordinary old turtles, there is a horn on it, and it is golden, and when the head turns, the horn seems to have bursts of light. The sound seemed to have the meaning of reverberation, and it lasted under the water for a long time, and the old turtle stretched out his head and listened carefully again, and was immediately overjoyed, and his body shook, and he saw that on the back of the house, hundreds of small turtles, large and small, fell down, and no matter what the reaction of those small turtles was, they floated to the surface of the water and made a splash. Distinguishing the direction of the voice, swimming in that direction, don't look at the huge size of this golden-armored old turtle, but the speed in the water is not slow, and after a while, it swims in front of the red pine nut and climbs ashore.
