Chapter 237: The Four Masterpieces (26)

The breeze swept people's hair, and also brought a slight smell of food wafting from nowhere, and everyone sat upright while drinking Wuyi Mountain Dahongpao tea, listening carefully to Runzhi's story behind the four famous books and Luo Guanzhong.

When everyone listens to this story, they are actually accepting the baptism of some cultures, and Runzhi is to integrate some of his thoughts into such a story, and let many Li people grasp more of the latest knowledge through entertaining methods.

Hearing Cheng Hanyun's question, Runzhi smiled refreshingly, and then said:

"Actually, you have already said half of what I want to say, this "Journey to the West" as a famous work written behind closed doors by Wu Chengen in the Ming Dynasty when he became a monk, naturally this person actually dilutes this historical cycle rate, and the biggest difference between this work and "Stone Record" is that it begins to try to solve many problems encountered by individuals, rather than just emphasizing the country, or emphasizing the family. What "Journey to the West" wants to emphasize is actually a correct attitude and choice for a person in the face of so many births, old age, sickness and death, hardships and hardships, life and death. From a personal level, I hope that there is a certain reference value for the choice of the behavior of many Li people. It is fundamentally based on the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and its connotation is concretized, and many general truths, gradually combined with the reality of life, through the Tang Seng experienced nine hundred and eighty-one difficulties, in fact, that is to say, people in their lives in the realization of the ideal when the suffering will be encountered, through the Tang Seng master and apprentice four, in fact, it depicts different people's different attitudes and practices towards suffering. This "Journey to the West" is not only based on real life, but transforms the spiritual things in it into many cows, ghosts, snakes and gods, so as to realize the salvation of the characters themselves in the realization of people's own salvation, and at the same time introduce the warmth and coldness of the human world, the hot and cold state of the world, and the portrayal of human nature is very deep, which is naturally the same as "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

Cheng Hanyun heard this, so he continued:

"Indeed, many things in this eternal world can be ever-changing at the surface level, such as the seventy-two changes of Sun Wukong in "Journey to the West", the unpredictable and fleeting battlefield environment in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the endless and rich personalities of many heroes in "Water Margin", and the rise and fall of Jiafu in "Stone Records", in fact, there is something special at the disposal, this mysterious power reminds me of our common admonitions, that is, good is rewarded, evil is rewarded, It's not that you don't report it, the time has not come, but when the time comes, the retribution will come, I don't know what adults think? ”

Runzhi was on the stage, interacting with Cheng Hanyun, and many of the people of Li were sitting in their places, listening to the conversation between the two people, such a dialogue was not uncommon in the teahouse, and the Chinese people were watching each other as if they were watching a debate match, and the people on both sides put forward their own special opinions on certain issues with each other. fifth

Runzhi heard Cheng Hanyun's question, so he continued:

"That's true, as you say. In fact, in the final analysis, these four famous works are all about many truths about how to live in the world, in fact, they are standing from different angles, carefully observing and recording human behavior, so that our great ancestors in China can pass on many experiences to future generations in the form of stories, and also count them as adding the sum of these cultures to future generations, so as to further promote the overall progress of human culture. Among these four famous works, the concept of good and evil and the concept of cause and effect are relatively obvious concepts, but the ideas involved in these four famous works have inherited the academic atmosphere of the hundred schools of thought in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and at the same time, in the story, the core ideas of the four famous works of the golden mean are repeatedly involved. Among these four famous works, the most worthy of absorption is actually the nourishment of the ideas in them, and the reason why these ideas can be said to be great is because these ideas are not just the thoughts of the author, but the crystallization of the common thoughts of all Chinese people."

Many men, women, and children all turned their heads sideways and listened carefully to Runzhi's explanation, this kind of free opportunity to listen to the story, it was really not in vain, but whenever there was a little free time, people hurried to Pu Songling's teahouse. What's more, this time, the prefect of Zhejiang came to tell the story in person, and it was not so easy to listen to the story of the prefect of Zhejiang directly face to face.

Pu Songling also felt very fond of Runzhi's story, and at the same time, for the story of the four famous books told by Runzhi, he felt that there must be a magical emotion in it, which was dominating Runzhi and guiding Runzhi to tell this story. For Runzhi's explanation of the story of the four famous novels, Pu Songling is naturally very happy in his heart, for him, the effect of enjoying a good story is far greater than enjoying a full meal, it is not easy to get a good story, especially a good story with thoughts is really rare, so Pu Songling is simply the more he listens, the happier he is.

"My lord, this Luo Guanzhong is a legendary figure, according to historical records, since he left Chen Youliang, came to our Jiangsu and other places, has been insisting on writing books, but is indeed a very talented character, such a character, this Chen Youliang does not know to use, in fact, it has been doomed to Chen Youliang's final inevitable failure, but it is precisely like this, it is Luo Guanzhong who has been famous through the ages, this may be the concrete embodiment of the spirit of the lost East Corner Harvest, In short, many stories of this person and the four famous novels are indeed a good story, so many stories, how about the adults allow the villains to be transformed into ghosts and gods after all the processing? ”

Runzhi listened to Pu Songling's request, and felt that it was very reasonable, so he quickly agreed, after all, someone is willing to pay attention to his work, which is an honor and pleasure in itself, so Runzhi said:

"If you think you have this idea, the official is naturally very agreeable, the official is actually a loyal fan of this ghost and god, Mr. wrote "Liao Zhai" many articles have already been read, every time I read it, I sigh for the love between people, ghosts, foxes and demons and the warmth of the world, if the official is not wrong, in fact, these stories are in addition to those cows, ghosts, snakes and gods, in fact, the story itself has a certain reality and real deeds, I don't know if it?"
