Chapter 1086: The Dispute over the Illiteracy of the Sixth Ancestor Huineng (6)
Zhang Cambodia said meaningfully: A few days earlier, the old man went to Longshan Guoen Temple to pay homage to the six ancestors Huineng, and saw the lychee trees planted here by the six ancestors Huineng next to Longshan Guoen Temple.
Generally speaking, after more than 100 years, the lychee tree is already old and difficult to bear fruit. Strange to say, in the Guoen Temple, the lychee tree planted by the sixth ancestor Huineng himself, despite the wind and rain, thunder and lightning, has experienced more than a hundred years, standing majestically and still flourishing. According to the local people, Zhao Shao: whenever the lily is ripe, the fruit is abundant, hanging full of branches, and the red is attractive, and it is affectionately called "Buddha Lisheng Tree" by the locals.
Besides, Huineng's uncle at that time said: "Silly child, lychees need to be pressed to reproduce, so they can't be grown." ”
Huineng asked, "Uncle, have you ever planted lychees?" ”
"Nope. I heard the old people say that lychees can't be sown. ”
"You haven't tried it, how can you be sure that lychees can't be born? Besides, since this lychee is very special and delicious, it will definitely be able to grow. ”
Uncle was stunned: This little nephew has very mysterious ideas in his head. He watched Huineng bury the lychee in the soil and said, "Huineng, even if this lychee can sprout, grow into a big tree, and bear fruit, you will have to leave, and you won't be able to eat it." ”
Huineng smiled and said, "I can't eat it, but you all can taste it." ”
A year later, the lychees sown by Xiao Huineng really broke through the soil. Since then, Lingnan people know that lychee reproduction, in addition to pressing strips and cuttings, can also be born. 60 years later, Wu Zetian, the only empress in the history of the Central Plains, issued an edict to give Huineng's former residence as "Guoen Temple", this deep-rooted lychee tree, for the villagers who built the temple to support a green shade. Today, more than 100 years later, the lychees planted by the Sixth Patriarch Huineng are 18 meters high, and it takes three adults to hug them. It is still fruitful year after year, and it will run for future generations......
Huineng's mother and son traveled day and night, sleeping in the open air, hardships and ups and downs, and finally arrived at the holy place in their hearts - Guangzhou.
Nanhai County governs Guangzhou, which is the most prosperous metropolis in Lingnan, with business and travel exchanges and celebrities. Chinese silk and porcelain drifted across the ocean from here and spread to the countries of the South China Sea; Overseas spices and treasures are also imported into the mainland from here. Not only that, but when Master Bodhidharma came to China from the distant Indian Ocean, it was from here that he set foot on the land of China and sowed the seeds of Zen.
Five sheep appeared, and there was no place under Baiyun Mountain; Humanities, the first city on the bank of the Pearl River.
When Huineng's mother and son entered the city, it was already sunset. Guangzhou, the city that never sleeps, has entered another kind of prosperity. Above the Pearl River, the twilight smoke is shrouded, the sunset is blurred, the fine lines are like scales, and the microwave is golden. On the river, there are building boats, painting boats, flower boats, small boats, and fish, carrying amorous sons; Gui Yi shook lightly and sent the enchanting lady. The river breeze is slightly smoky, sending the sheng flute silk and bamboo symphony, when it is light and sometimes heavy, if there is nothing, the slightest wisp, ethereal, like fairy music falling into the mortal world; At the beginning of the moonlight, the boats and boats are brightly lit, and the beauty is graceful, hazy, and trance-like, as if you are in the heavenly palace...... The buildings on both sides of the strait are scattered, thousands of willow threads are covered, every house is lit up with lights, and every household is laughing and laughing.
Guess the boxing order, arrogant, drunk man - everyone is the best man in the world; Yingge Yan language, whispering, women's love words - the most beautiful lie in the world...... Xiao Hui can look around, her eyes are misty, stunned, and it seems that a pair of eyes are not enough. A carriage galloped swiftly towards Huineng......
Li hurriedly pulled Huineng to the side of the road, and the wind brought by the carriage lifted his clothes. Li's soul flew cold, trembling all over, angry and angry, and couldn't help but slap Hui Neng and teach him: "What to see, those places, what to see!" What about your soul? Got sucked away by those goblins? ”
