Chapter 6 The Profound Sutra
"Hurry up and let me down, where are you going to take me?......" Fan Li sat behind the white stork and shouted wildly, but the white stork didn't pay attention to it at all and kept flying up a mountain.
In a blink of an eye, he reached the top of the mountain, and the white stork put Fan Li down. Fan Li found that in a small pavilion, a boy of the same age as Fan Li was sitting drinking tea.
Fan Li walked to the small pavilion, and when he was about to enter the pavilion, the boy said, "Fan Li, you are here!"
Fan Li was surprised: "How do you know my name? Did you ask the white stork to bring me here?"
I saw the boy say, "Why are you asking so much? Kneel down and worship me as a teacher!"
Fan Li laughed and said, "Haha, it's funny! First, I don't even know who you are." Second, I never like to be tied to what I learn, and I can become a talent by self-study. Third, you're just a kid about my age, what can you teach me? You're exaggerating!"
The boy said: "You can't just look at the surface, how do you know that I am as old as you? How do you know that I can't teach you? I never accept apprentices, and today I accepted you as an apprentice, which is a blessing from your three lifetimes!"
Fan Lixin said: "What he said is not unreasonable, it is true that many things cannot be just looked at the surface. But how do you look at him, he's also a kid about my age, what is he capable of? ”
Fan Li circled around the stone table where the boy was sitting, staring at the boy motionlessly, then walked out of the pavilion, pretending to go home, and said: "You are just a child about the same age as me, it is estimated that it is possible to be younger than me, it is almost dark, I have no time to play with you, I am going home......"
The boy laughed and said, "You're so afraid of the dark, then I'll help you drive the night away!"
Fan Li ignored him, and still pretended to go down the mountain. The boy poured a new cup of tea, slowly walked out of the pavilion with the teacup, and suddenly sprinkled the tea in the teacup into the sky and shouted, "Mirage ......"
At this moment, the tea disappeared, and suddenly the sky turned from black to white, revealing a blue sky and white clouds, and a rainbow could be faintly seen. The white stork could not bear it anymore and spread its wings and flew away, blending in with the scenery.
When Fan Li saw this situation, he thought that he had seen it wrong, rubbed his eyes and said in shock: "Oh my God? Could it be that a god descended to earth? It's amazing! I am willing to worship him as a teacher and be a cow and a horse!"
Fan Li hurriedly turned around and knelt down, gave a fist salute, and then kowtowed three times in a row and said, "The master is above, please accept the apprentice's three bows." ”
The boy smiled and said, "Okay, get up, just bow at will, don't be so polite, naturally, I don't eat the Confucian set!"
Fan Li said: "Yes, master." Then he stood up and said, "Master, how did you change that trick "mirage"? It's so fun!"
The boy said, "What is this? You will be able to study my "Tongxuan Sutra" thoroughly. After speaking, he picked up a book and handed it to Fan Li.
Fan Li took the "Tongxuan True Scripture" and said with a smile: "Great, I can actually learn the "Mirage"!"
The boy said: "How can my 'Tongxuan Sutra' only have this little skill of carving insects? 'Tongxuan Sutra' is broad and profound, and the wisdom of self-cultivation, governing the country, and leveling the world are all contained in it. When you reach my age, if you can understand eighty percent, you will be satisfied with me!"
Fan Li said: "Haha, great, we are about the same age, I can learn eighty percent so quickly!"
The boy knocked on Fan Li's head and said, "Didn't you just look at the surface? I'm seventy-seven!"
"Master, you're older than my deceased grandfather? I really can't tell you! Why don't you get old?" Fan Li said in surprise.
Fan Li's master turned around and said: "I am practicing a longevity internal strength, this internal strength can make people live dozens of years longer, or even hundreds of years old! During the period of practicing this longevity internal strength, I will rejuvenate and rejuvenate, and I have recorded all the internal strength and mental methods of cultivation in the "Tongxuan True Sutra"! You have to practice well! I don't want you to die and I'm still alive, then I will make people laugh off their big teeth!"
Fan Li walked up to the master and said with a smile: "Master, what's so funny about losing your big teeth? The world thinks that apprentices should die later than masters, but I just want my master to live longer than me and live longer than me." However, I will still practice longevity internal strength, because no matter how I practice anyway, I am not as good as the master in case!"
Fan Li's master snorted and said, "You ghost clever! Having said so much, don't you want to know who I am?"
Fan Li said: "Master, don't say it yet, let me guess!"
Fan Li's master said: "Okay, if you can guess, I will teach you a peerless martial art today!"
Fan Li smiled and said: "Then it's decided, no one is allowed to regret it! I think that the master is not only a top master of the rivers and lakes, but also a real person." Could it be the legendary "Guiguzi"?"
Fan Li's master said: "He is my fellow brother, so I am not as swaggering and pretending to be a ghost as he is! I like to point fingers all day long, and I can't count the number of apprentices I will accept! I will only accept you as an apprentice in this life, and I will never be the same as him, you guess." ”
Fan Li heard the master describe Guiguzi like this, so he laughed and said: "Great, my ancestor turned out to be the famous Taoist founder "Lao Tzu". Not only that, it turns out that Uncle Guiguzi is so interesting! If I can meet him in the future, I will tell him what Master said. ”
Fan Li's master glanced at his eyes and said: "You tell him the truth, anyway, he always likes to pester me to compete with him, and I am not afraid of one more time!"
Fan Li entered the pavilion and poured a cup of tea, and said to himself while pouring: "Fortunately, I often go to the teahouse, and I overheard that the storyteller told a lot of stories about the masters of the rivers and lakes, otherwise I would not be able to break it!"
After Fan Li poured the tea, he walked out of the pavilion and handed it to the master and said, "Master, drink tea, let me guess again, could it be that you are the Mo family giant "Mo Zhai" who is known as "Mozi"?"
Fan Li's master said: "Mo Zhai likes to form gangs and engage in all kinds of tricks! I naturally have no interest in those! However, Mo Zhai's idea of loving non-aggression is not to say one thing and do another, and there are still chivalrous and righteous behaviors." ”
Fan Li was pleasantly surprised: "Wow, the trick! That must be very interesting! Since the master is not Mozi, then are you the number one faction in the world, the head of the Huangshan faction "Wang Dingsheng"?"
Fan Li's master took a sip of tea and said: "Don't worry, I am not as arrogant as "Wang Dingsheng"! Regardless of everyone's opposition, he married his own sister! But although he is arrogant, he is bold and single-minded in his feelings. ”
Fan Li said: "Wow, marry your own sister as your wife, then how much determination and courage does this have!"
After Fan Li finished speaking, he walked into the pavilion and poured another cup of tea, only to see the master hurriedly smile proudly: "Don't pour it again!
Fan Li put down the teacup and smiled awkwardly: "Master, then I said don't knock me again!"
The master said, "Okay, I can hold back this time and not knock you." ”
Fan Li said: "Could it be that you are the white-faced poison king "Xiao Qiang"?"
The master endured a breath, quickly walked to the pavilion, raised his hand and was about to knock on Fan Li.
Suddenly, Fan Li said: "Hehe, master, you just said it, no matter what I say this time, you won't knock my ......."
The master slowly lowered his hand and said, "First, I don't have that wicked life, and my face is like rice. Second, I never practice those five poisonous evil skills. Third, I won't sell those poisons to harm people!"
Fan Li smiled and said, "Master, I'm joking with you! Don't be angry, dissipate your anger! But, master, let me think about it again!"
The master said: "Give you one last chance, you can't guess again, or compare me with the wicked again, then you don't want to learn my peerless martial arts today!"
Fan Li said: "Okay, good, good, could it be that you are the creator of "Sun Tzu's Art of War" "Sun Wu"?"
The master said: "Although the name of 'Sun Wu' is martial arts, his martial arts are mediocre, and his internal skills are quite profound, and he is indeed unsurpassed in leading troops to fight! He is inferior to me in terms of martial arts, and I am inferior to him in terms of the art of war. Therefore, I am naturally not "Sun Wu". ”
Fan Li said in his heart: "I thought that if the master was Sun Wu, he could learn more about the art of war or something." Since it's not, I can't guess..... What should I do?"
The master said: "Apprentice, don't guess, you can't guess at all!"
Fan Li said: "Master, although I am not erudite, but I am not a frog at the bottom of the well, it stands to reason that I am unlikely to guess it!
The master said: "Because my "Ji Ran" never likes to show up, I only like to drive my "flying feather white stork" to travel all over the world, you can't guess it, it's not strange, master, I just want to test your knowledge." ”
Fan Li said: "Master Ji Ran, it turns out that you are testing me! I have been kept in the dark!"
Master Ji Ran said: "But you are still young, it is rare to be able to say so many top masters, as a teacher, I still decided to teach you a trick "lightning avoidance steps" first." ”
