Chapter 23: Xuanweilu
Zhang Yue was taken aback when she heard the master say that she was the heir, and hurriedly said, "Master, I... Descendants... No, no, no?! Senior brother, they are all a hundred times stronger than me? ”
"Xiao Wu," Mr. Huanchu interrupted Zhang Yue, "don't be presumptuous. Although your elder brother Lu Danjing has not joined the WTO, he presides over the academy in the mountains on weekdays, teaching and solving doubts for his disciples, but he is too old-fashioned and old-fashioned, and it is okay to be the head of the academy, but he cannot be a successor; Although your second senior brother Bai Ang is an official who is dedicated to serving the people, he is more than upright and inflexible, and it is easy to be used by people with intentions, and it is not suitable. Your third senior brother Li Dongyang is outstanding in literature and tactful, but unfortunately he is too utilitarian. As for Yuan Mo, he is indeed the most talented among you, and his personality is very similar to that of the teacher when he was young, but unfortunately there is a thorn buried deep in his heart, this thorn is a great variable, and the master cannot do risky things for the common people in the world. Only you are the most suitable person in the master's heart. ”
Zhang Yue wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes in surprise, "Master, but..."
The master shook his head, "Little Wu, you don't have to say much, the master has already made up his mind." What the master said to you next, you should keep in mind. The founding patriarch of the academy is Mr. Xuanwei, and I told you about the history of the academy when you started. In fact, Patriarch Xuanwei was amazing when he was young, and no one can compare. He once entered the WTO as the advisor of Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, and Zhu Yuanzhang was able to win the world, all thanks to the ancestor's clever calculations and strategies. ”
Zhang Yue was surprised in his heart, "Master, haven't you ever seen the name of the ancestor in the history books?" ”
"Shizu did not accept any official position under Zhu Yuanzhang's account, he was low-key, never had contact with other officials, and usually only had a scholar who had followed him since he was a child to assist him. and Zhu Yuanzhang offered advice and time, and it was mostly the scholar who went to communicate. So very few people know about his existence. Shizu chose to help Zhu Yuanzhang in order to be able to quell the war as soon as possible and restore peace in the world. Just when the situation in the world was initially decided, the indifferent nature of the ancestor had already planned to leave Zhu Yuanzhang, but the scholar next to him was full of ambition and wanted to do a big career. Seeing that the scholar had made up his mind, the master left sixteen words for the scholar and quietly left, the sixteen words were "It is easy to share hardships and hardships, and it is difficult to share wealth and prosperity, if you want to last a long time, retreat bravely." After that, the scholar stayed by Zhu Yuanzhang's side to continue to give advice, and later became a world-famous figure. This scholar is originally from Qingtian and his surname is Liu. ”
When the master said this, Zhang Yue's heart moved, "Master, is this scholar surnamed Liu be..."
"Yes, exactly the one you have in mind. Zhu Yuanzhang killed heroes in his later years, but the scholar surnamed Liu remembered the words of his ancestor when he left, so he saved his life and died a good death. ”
Zhang Yue's heart was even more shocked, and the name of that person flashed in his heart was the founding father of the Ming Dynasty, with amazing talent, he was still a scholar next to Shizu, how powerful Shizu was!!
Zhang Yue couldn't help but be fascinated by Shizu in his heart, and sighed, "Shizu is such a god-like character!" ”
After the ancestor left Zhu Yuanzhang, he came to Wuling Mountain to open the mountain and said, called himself Mr. Xuanwei, founded the Xuanwei Academy, hidden in the mountain, and never went out of the mountain again in his life. In his later years, Shizu wrote a book, called "Xuanweilu", this book brings together the essence of what Shizu learned in his life, divided into two parts, the upper part is a collection of world collections on self-cultivation, life, life, and birth, which combines the essence of Confucianism, Taoism, and the three major schools of Buddhism, teaching people the way of passing on the world, cultivating people's righteous heart, cultivating morality, and having incredible subtle power for people. The lower part is a variety of practical content in the hundred schools of Zhuzi, among which the military chapter brings together the main military ideas and strategies of the ancestors, and the military chapter also includes a lot of lost military equipment and wonderful formations. Therefore, if you are proficient in just one part of the military chapter, you can dominate the world. If you are proficient in other chapters. Then this person will be invincible in the world and proud of China. The master has studied this book for so many years, and he has only glimpsed the essence of three points. Your ancestor once had a testament that you must first have the heart of the upper book before you can apply what you have learned in the lower book. I am afraid that this book will fall into the hands of people with bad intentions and harm the common people. ”
"Do you remember every time the master took you to grow vegetables, he asked you to read those articles?"
"I remember, when I was young, I thought it was fun, so I read it with my master, and I memorized it for a long time."
Mr. Huanchu smiled slightly, "Those are the contents of the last book of Xuanweilu." ”
"Huh?" Zhang Yue was shocked in his heart.
The master continued, "For a hundred years, no one except the academy heirs knew about the existence of this book, until it reached my generation, alas! ”
Mr. Huanchu sighed when he said this, "When the master was passed on this book by your master, he was only in his twenties, and he was in the prime of his youth. When I was traveling, I carelessly revealed the book to a good friend I had made in the world, and when the man was in trouble, he begged me to do him a great favor, and I agreed to let him keep the secret. This man has long been gone. Weishi thought that this matter was over, but he didn't want to find out a few days ago, and he still informed his descendants about it before the person died. Therefore, the descendants of this person also know that the academy has this strange book. In addition, there is one more person who also knows. ”
Mr. Huanchu said this, his brows furrowed, and a trace of bitterness flashed in his eyes, "Little Wu, you originally had a senior brother. ”
Zhang Yue was stunned, his eyes full of puzzlement.
"Lu Danjing is my eldest apprentice, when I accepted apprentices, I actually accepted two apprentices together, that person is Lu Danjing's cousin, named Lu Zhaohai, the two look a little similar. This person's talent is much higher than the gallscope, and he studies and practices martial arts very hard, and his teacher has wanted him to be my successor several times, and when he travels in the four directions, he also likes to take him with him. As I said just now, I once helped the friend who knew the secret of Xuanweilu a big favor, and this matter was also Lu Zhaohai accompanied me down the mountain to assist me in completing it, and the experience of this incident made him inadvertently know the existence of Xuanweilu, and I thought that I would pass it on to him in the future, so I didn't take it to heart, I didn't expect him to have crooked thoughts and plan to steal Xuanweilu. After being caught red-handed by me, he died without repentance. In the end, I expelled him from the school, and no one was allowed to mention him again. There has been no news of this person all these years, if you meet this person in the future, remember! Be careful! ”
Zhang Yue took his master's words to heart and nodded yes.
Mr. Chu smiled, slowly walked to the side of the bookcase, I don't know what mechanism was pressed, only to see the bookcase was separated from the middle, and an iron plate was exposed on the wall, the master touched around the iron plate a few times, the iron plate cracked from the middle, and a dark grid appeared inside, the master took out a box from the dark grid, and took out a red velvet satin book from the box, the master said with a solemn face
"Little Five, kneel!"
Zhang Yue hurriedly knelt on the ground.
"From today on, you are the fourth generation of Xuanwei Academy, this book is the "Xuanwei Lu" written by the patriarch, and it is also a token of each generation of academy heirs. Now it is passed on to you, and you must make good use of it to benefit the people. After speaking, he handed it to Zhang Yue,
Zhang Yue hurriedly raised his hands above his head and respectfully took the book. He said, "The disciple must follow the master's teachings. ”
When Mr. Huanchu saw that his beloved disciple took the book, he quickly helped his beloved disciple up, "Child, this book will be passed on to those who are sincere and trustworthy and treat the people well in the future, and it must not fall into the hands of people with bad intentions, remember to remember!" ”
"Remember!"
Mr. Huanchu looked at his beloved apprentice, his heart was very sad, and he stroked his beloved apprentice's forehead, "Xiao Wu, after you go down the mountain, the master will also leave Wuling Mountain and travel overseas. ”
Zhang Yue was shocked and tugged on the sleeve of the master's coat tightly, "Master, why did you leave the academy." How can it be so difficult to see each other again? ”
"The master has a hunch that soon, the world may cause a big storm because of this book. The husband is not guilty, but he is also guilty. If the master is still in the academy, the academy will not be peaceful in the future, and only when the master travels overseas and makes those who have a heart think that Xuan Weilu and the teacher are living overseas together, can the peace of the academy be maintained. After you leave, I will announce that Zhang Xiaowu, an apprentice, has traveled all over the world. You immediately restore your original daughter body and call back Zhang Yue's name. Except for a few of your senior brothers who know your true identity, no one knows that Zhang Yue is my apprentice, and those who know your identity will never guess that I will choose you as the heir on the surface. That's why over the years, the master has not let you show your daughter in front of outsiders, nor has he let outsiders know your good handwriting with your left hand. Mediocrity is the best protection for you. Master hopes that you will live this life safely. ”
Zhang Yue thought that the master had done so many things for his own safety over the years, and he was very moved in his heart, and he thought about leaving the master again, and tears rained down. She wiped her tears, flipped through the Xuanweilu a few times, and was taken aback, the text in it was actually the ancient tadpole text that the master had taught her privately over the years, Zhang Yue looked up at the teacher, "Master, the ancestor wrote this book with the ancient tadpole text." ”
Mr. Huanchu nodded in response,
"Yes, the old man, the master and his old man, are also afraid that this book will fall into the hands of people with ulterior motives, so he wrote this book after improving the ancient tadpole text that few people can understand."
"Then you, you teach me tadpole literature in private on weekdays, it's because..."
"Yes, child, in this world, only you and I can understand this mystery."
Zhang Yue thought that the teacher was so well-intentioned, and he was even more moved in his heart, and chatted with the master for a long time, and saw that the teacher was tired, so he withdrew from the master's room.
