Shi Ru listened to Zhang Cambodia and the Zen master quoted scriptures to prove that "the six ancestors Hui can be literate", at first glance, it sounds reasonable, and people have nothing to say. But then I thought about it: No, the altar scripture "The First Traveler" is written in black and white that Huineng is illiterate. At that time, the six ancestors wanted to listen to Shenxiu's son, so they asked a boy in the temple: "Huineng is illiterate, please read it for others." "Serendipitous Product Seventh" also records in black and white that the nun has endless hiding and wants to ask the words in the Great Nirvana Sutra of the Six Ancestors, and the six ancestors replied: "The word is not known, and the meaning is to ask." Thinking of this, Shi Ru's natural character of winning and being strong made him say what he thought just now, and Ruju's eyes swept over Zhang Cambodia and Zen Master, with a smug smile on his face.

This is a bit interesting, it was originally a chance meeting, getting together to talk about the scriptures, but it evolved into a "Huineng is illiterate" debate (known as the Chinese and Western debate in history). At this time, I saw that the Zen master lowered his head, secretly glanced at Zhang Cambodia with his eyes, and said in his heart: This foreign monk is really interested, and he actually took out the "Six Ancestors Altar Sutra" to reason, and said, "Huineng is illiterate, and it is seen in the altar scripture "The First Traveling Product". Indeed, there is this record in the "Sutra of the Altar of the Six Ancestors". In black and white, what to say about the poor monk.

Zhang Cambodia is worthy of being the great Confucian of the dynasty, Zeng Gui is the prime minister, he saw that the Zen master looked at him with the eyes of admitting defeat, and he also passed a calm look and his courage to him.

Zhang Cambodia's success is in the chest: Lao Yu emphasizes one more point here: a person's growth and the social environment are inseparable, such as Mengzi's mother moved three times in order to give Mencius a good learning environment. Huineng's period of enlightenment thought was spent in New South Wales. Huineng is exposed to the culture of Xinzhou, and it is impossible not to mention the influence of the general environment of Xinzhou on the six ancestors Huineng, so Huineng should have been exposed to a lot of Xinzhou culture during this period. This is one of them; Second, Neng's mother, like Meng's mother, moved to Nanhai in order to give Huineng a good learning environment, and took refuge in Lu Xingyao's classmate, Wenlong, who served as the assassin of Guangzhou in the Guangzhou Yamen.

Shi Ruhe must have heard Zhang Cambodia say this, like falling into the clouds.

Shi Rugang wanted to question, but Zhang Khan Zhi quickly said: Everyone, at first glance, when you hear the old decay say this, you may laugh at the old decay for saying that it is out of the topic, but in fact, it is not. In order to make you clear your doubts, Lao Yu first recited the chapter of "The Legend of the Six Ancestors of Zen Buddhism" for clarification:

Lu Xingyao's return to the West is like a collapse of the sky for Huineng's mother and son. Fortunately, when Lu Xingyu was alive, he was literate and hyphenated, and he helped the villagers a lot, so people took good care of their orphans and widows; Fortunately, Li is an indigenous woman, willing to endure hardships, able to work hard, and can make do with the work in the fields; Fortunately, Li's mother's family is not far from Jiulang Village, and with the help of their mother's brothers and villagers, they kept two acres of thin fields.

In the blink of an eye, Huineng was already nine years old. Xu is often hungry after falling into the middle of the road, and he is smaller than children of the same age.

On this day, he was crouching under the eaves to sharpen his axe. A few friends jumped up and down with schoolbags on their backs, talked and laughed and passed by the door and went to school. His gaze lingered long in the direction they had disappeared. Li Shi touched the scene and couldn't help but cry. She choked up and said, "Neng'er, I'm sorry for you." Our family is too poor to afford for you to go to school. ”

Huineng said: "Mother, I'm not thinking about going to school, but thinking, what is the use of them going to school?" ”

Li said sadly: "Silly boy, of course it is useful to go to school." If you learn the Four Books and Five Classics, you will be able to take the Xiucai and Zhongjinshi exams. ”

Huineng asked again: "What are you doing when you are admitted to the Jinshi?" ”

Li said: "Be an official." The entrance examination is what our people call the election of officials. If you win the jinshi, you can become a county official. Then he rose step by step, became a state official, became a state official, and became a prime minister. Under one man, above ten thousand. ”
