Chapter 168: I Can't Teach You (Three Watches)
Chapter 168 Can't Teach You (Three Watches)
The drizzle is drizzling, and Tokyo Kaifeng has entered a rainy season.
In the early morning, the rain and fog shrouded Kaifeng, and from a distance, it was foggy. On the long street, there is a lot of traffic and pedestrians are hurrying.
It's a busy time, and even this drizzle can't stop people's enthusiasm.
Yu Yin suddenly remembered something.
In later generations, Kaifeng was flooded, why did the Northern Song Dynasty not have this situation?
At least after a long time of rebirth, Kaifeng City has never had a large-scale flood.
I have the heart to ask someone for advice, but I don't know who to ask. Maybe Li Yifeng can know a thing or two, and go back to him to inquire about it. Yu Yin always felt that there must be some truth in the reason why Kaifeng was flooded in later generations, and even Kaifeng, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, was also submerged in the dust. Is it just the cause of soil erosion? I'm afraid it's not quite so.
"Brother Xiaoyi, there is Kaibao Temple in front!"
Just as Yu Yin's thoughts were flying, Yan Nu's crisp voice sounded.
Looking up, I saw a towering temple faintly visible in the rain and fog.
Kaibao Temple has arrived!
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In fact, when it comes to Kaibao Temple, many people may not be clear.
But when it comes to a building in Kaibao Temple, many people must know that there is the Kaibao Temple Tower, which is the Kaifeng Iron Tower in later generations.
During the period of Zhao Guangyi of Taizong of the Song Dynasty, Qian Yu, the king of Wuyue, sent the Buddha relics of Emperor Ashoka to Kaifeng.
Taizong may have begged to avoid disasters, or perhaps he had other thoughts in his heart, so he buried the Buddha relics in the ground in the Kaibao Temple, and asked Yu Hao, a famous craftsman at that time, to build a wooden pagoda above the Buddha relics. After the completion of the wooden tower, a total of 13 floors, about 129 meters high, named Fusheng Tower. However, in the seventh year of Qingli, this wooden tower that took seven years to build was burned down by lightning and lightning in the early days.
In the first year of Huangyou, that is, in 1049 A.D., the imperial court ordered craftsmen to use iron-colored glazed tiles according to the style of the wooden tower, and rebuilt the main tower in Yishan in the courtyard above the east side of Fushoin Temple of Kaibao Temple, and renamed it the Inspiration Tower. And because the color of the glazed bricks and tiles of the tower body is mixed with iron casting, so the Kaifeng people call this inspiration tower again, called 'iron tower'.
In his previous life, Yuyin also visited the Iron Tower.
However, the tower at that time was not the tower it is today.
Whether in terms of scale or pattern, it is far from the charm of today.
Yu Yin suddenly stopped, stopped and watched for a long time, and then followed Yan Nu around the mountain gate of Kaibao Temple and walked towards Yongxingfang.
"Why does Uncle Shi live here?"
But he didn't know, but he said that he had accepted an apprentice in his early years and settled in Yongxingfang.
This time, Uncle Shi served as the head of the Tianzifang of the Royal Boxing Gym, and he could have lived in the accommodation arranged by the Royal Boxing Gym, but he insisted on settling down here. However, his apprentice has passed away, leaving behind a son who lives here...... By the way, Xiao Yi, maybe you still recognize Uncle Shi's apprentice, who was the shopkeeper Qi who was responsible for delivering forage to our family before, Qi Longteng. ”
"Huh?"
Yu Yin couldn't help but be taken aback when he heard this.
"I remember, Qi Longteng doesn't look like a martial artist."
"Then I don't know......"
The husband and wife talked as they walked.
Before they knew it, the two came to the door of a mansion.
Yan Nu stepped forward and knocked on the door, and after a while, he heard footsteps from the courtyard, followed by a young female voice, "Who's outside?" ”
"Dare to ask if this is Lao Qi's essence shopkeeper?"
"My dad isn't here."
The voice fell, and the door opened.
Out of it came a girl wearing a pink jacket, combed a double crow bun, stared at a pair of big watery eyes, and looked at Yu Yin and Yan Nu, "Daddy went to the store early in the morning, if you are looking for Daddy, go to the store." ”
Yan Nu grinned and squatted down, "Are you Zixuan?" "Who are you and how do you know my name?" ”
The little girl replied innocently with a curious look on her face.
Yu Yin raised his eyebrows, it seemed that Yan Nu had really put a lot of effort into asking Chen Xizhen for advice.
At this moment, an old voice came from the courtyard, "Zixuan girl, which one is making noise outside the door?" ”
The voice was hoarse and unpleasant, like a broken gong.
Yu Yin immediately heard that the person who spoke was Chen Xizhen.
Although he hasn't had much contact with Chen Xizhen, Yu Yin is no stranger to Chen Xizhen's voice.
The little girl turned around and said, "Grandpa, I'm here for Daddy." ”
Yan Nu hurriedly said: "Niece Zhou Yannu, I have come to visit my uncle. ”
The little girl was stunned for a moment and looked at Yan Nu suspiciously.
In the courtyard, it suddenly quieted down, and after a while, I heard Chen Xizhen say: "Girl, since you're here, come in." ”
The little girl got out of the way, still looking curious.
Yu Yin and Yan Nu walked in, and saw that the courtyard was not large, with two rooms on the left and right, and a hall in the center. Chen Xi really stood at the door of the hall, and when he saw Yu Yin, he suddenly smiled, "The kid is so patient, he actually came now."
Girl, the last time I saw you, you were just born.
Seventeen years have passed, but she has become a big girl...... Come on, let Uncle Shi see, it does look like your aunt. ”
Yan Nu's mother died before she could remember.
According to Yan Nu, her mother gave birth to her in her forties, and her vitality was extremely depleted. At that time, Antao was not in Kaifeng, so he could not find a good doctor to diagnose and treat him. So, not long after giving birth to Yan Nu, she fell ill and died.
Yan Nu's face showed a gloomy color, and he stepped forward to sing a fat song with Chen Xizhen, and then greeted Yu Yin to see him.
"Well, Hugh is polite.
When this kid went to play in the Royal Boxing Gym, he was arrogantly tight. After learning some fur kung fu, you have to learn to kick the gym...... It's also a shame that I stopped Zhou Fengshan that day, otherwise you guys would have to be taught a lesson. Be careful in the future, don't be so reckless. The Royal Boxing Gym has been established for a hundred years, how can you be a hairy boy to deal with it? ”
Chen Xizhen was not polite, and in front of Yan Nu, he severely reprimanded Yu Yin.
I'm afraid this old guy has been holding back for a long time...... Seeing that he was so happy to teach, Yu Yin also felt a little surprised.
"Zixuan, don't be busy.
It's all your own family, so you don't have to be polite...... Grandpa Shi gave you some money and went to the alley to buy some porridge and water and came back. ”
When Yan Nu heard this, he hurriedly said: "Uncle Xiu wants this, Jiu'er thought that Uncle Shi hadn't eaten yet, so he prepared some and brought them together." Zixuan also came to eat, but it was still hot, and if she didn't eat it again, it would be cold, and she would lose her original taste. ”
As he spoke, Yan Nu snorted at Yu Yin.
Yu Yin hurriedly brought the food box in his hand and put it on the table.
There was a pot of wheat porridge in the food box, as well as the meat patties that Yan Nu had cooked in the morning.
The fragrant meatloaf is very bright in color, and with the two side dishes on the side, it immediately makes people appetize.
Zixuan smelled the aroma of the meatloaf and couldn't help but swallow her saliva.
Chen Xizhen was not polite, got up and walked out, and after a while, he came in with a bowl of chopsticks, filled Zixuan with a bowl of wheat porridge, and then cut the meatloaf into small pieces and placed it in front of Zixuan. At this time, Chen Xizhen did not have the majestic appearance of the Royal Boxing Gym that day. He is more like a kind grandfather, after serving Zixuan a meal, he picked up a piece of meatloaf with chopsticks, put it in his mouth and chewed it, with a smile on his face, and praised again and again......
"Jiu'er's craftsmanship is good, I'm afraid it's more flavorful than the meat cakes of the Hu family's shop."
Then he gave himself a bowl of wheat porridge, took a sip, and nodded his head to express satisfaction. ..., Yu Yin didn't eat in the morning, and seeing that Chen Xizhen was eating sweetly, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva secretly.
"Come here so early, I guess you and the two of you haven't eaten, so let's use it together.
Zixuan and I can't eat too much, looking at Xiao Yi like this, I'm afraid that it is when the stomach is wide, and we can't eat much. Come on, come on, sit down and eat with me, if there is anything, let's talk while eating, let's be casual. ”
Yan Nu sat down with a smile and sandwiched some side dishes for Zixuan.
It can be seen that Zixuan eats very sweetly, and giggles from time to time.
"Jiu'er, I generally understand your intentions."
Chen Xizhen ate a piece of meatloaf weighing about half a catty, drank another bowl of wheat porridge, put down the bowl and said, "Is it that you have reached a difficult point in your practice, and you don't know how to continue your cultivation?" ”
Yan Nu's face flushed, but he didn't hide it, and said generously: "Uncle Shi is really as wise as a torch." ”
"Hehe, that's normal.
That day, Xiao Yi fought Li Bao in the Royal Boxing Gym, and I saw some clues.
However, Xiao Yi, although you have practiced the third level of kung fu to the Great Perfection, I can still feel that your tricks are not very proficient. However, when you make a move, you are murderous and awe-inspiring, and you take a fierce road, which seems to be very different from Senior Brother Zhou's kind of neutral and peaceful kung fu. ”
"This ......"
Yu Yin hesitated for a moment, and then recounted the experience of several fights in the northern Xinjiang.
Chen Xizhen listened to it and was noncommittal.
He turned his face, looked at Yan Nu, and said with a smile: "Jiu'er's kung fu seems to have reached the great consummation of the righteous monarch to come to the flesh and blood, and he is only one foot away from entering the fourth layer of kung fu...... In the past two days, I haven't had much to do, and there is Zhou Fengshan and them watching at the Royal Boxing Gym, and nothing can happen. In this way, from tomorrow onwards, you will come to my side to practice for an hour every day, and by the way, I will guide this little girl in my family and let her lay a good foundation.
No matter what grievances I had with your father before, Senior Brother Zhou's foundation building kung fu is really excellent.
Zixuan is seven years old this year, which is a good age to build a foundation...... If Jiu'er is convenient, give me more guidance on her side. ”
Yan Nu heard this and hurriedly said: "Uncle Shi's orders, Jiu'er dare not obey." ”
In my heart, I am also very happy, if I can have Chen Xizhen's guidance, I think I will soon be able to cross the threshold of the fourth layer of kung fu.
Chen Xizhen smiled, turned his head and stared at Yu Yin again.
That gaze was like the gaze of an eagle falcon, as if it penetrated through Yu Yin's heart.
Yu Yin couldn't help but be a little apprehensive, looking at Chen Xizhen, not knowing what he meant.
After a while, Chen Xizhen suddenly spoke: "Xiao Yi, it's not that I don't want to teach you, but I really can't teach you." ”
"Huh?"
"The path you are taking is neither the upright and peaceful way of Senior Brother Zhou, nor the feminine kung fu of me...... So I'm afraid that my experience will not be of much use to you. However, as far as I know, there is someone in this Kaifeng city who can give you guidance. It's just that that person has a strange temperament, and I can't tell you whether he wants to teach you or not.
Well, you can go to him first.
If he is willing to teach you, he will do more with less. If he doesn't agree, I'm giving you advice, which may not be useful, but I can give you some advice. ”
Yu Yin was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Dare to ask Uncle Shi, who is that person?" ”

It's been a mess lately, so the update is a bit unstable.
I will adjust it as soon as possible and be able to resume stable updates as soon as possible......
