Liang Qiangping slept soundly, and faintly heard the melodious sound of the flute. He opened his eyes in a daze, looked towards the place where the flute sounded, and saw a white-haired old man sitting on the stone block at the entrance of the cave, holding a bamboo flute, playing leisurely.

He woke up suddenly, got up curiously, and opened his eyes to see, isn't this the old man? Can he play the bamboo flute?

The sound of the flute stopped suddenly. The old man turned to look at Liang Qiangping, his face was much better, and his face was full of smiles.

Liang Qiangping walked over and asked with concern, "Grandpa, where did you go that day?" I've searched the whole valley and can't find you, so I'm worried about you. ”

The old man laughed and said, "I haven't gone anywhere, just in this cave." ”

Liang asked puzzledly, "It's in the cave?" How can I not see you! ”

The old man smiled: "But I can see you." ”

Liang Qiangping's face was full of doubts, could he be invisible, was he a human or a ghost?

The old man laughed and said, "I've been sitting in the cabin, but you didn't see me." ”

Liang Qiangping turned around and looked towards the cabin, but he couldn't see anything special, he asked inexplicably, "Grandpa, where are you from?" Can you tell me? ”

The old man looked at him carefully, and saw that he was honest and kind-hearted, so he said, "I am from outside the world, do you believe it?" ”

Liang Qiangping responded in surprise: "Ah! Extraterrestrial! ”

The old man continued: "Although I am from outside the sky, I have an indissoluble bond with your Jingxing Home! ”

Liang Qiangping heard him say that he came from outside the sky, that is from another planet, he is an alien, no wonder he is so mysterious!

The old man sighed, and then said: "I have lived in your meridian star for half my life, and I can be regarded as a person on the meridian star!" ”

Liang Qiangping asked, "Then when did you come to Jingxing?" ”

The old man said, "It's a long story! Originally, I didn't want to tell you, but it is very rare to see that you are faithful and kind, and you have been waiting for me in this cave for five years! As he spoke, he sighed lightly, his face suddenly showed helplessness, and his face was full of sadness, and then he said: "More than thirty years ago, I took a spaceship through space to the meridian star and found this valley. I saw that the environment here was very similar to the place where I once lived, so I named it Daojing Valley. The name was engraved on the stone wall above the cave with Yi Xingwen. After that, I pretended to be a Taoist and preached in the stars for thirty years. Traveled all over the world, preached all the way, and learned the truth all the way. In the past 30 years, I have personally experienced various wars, disasters, famines, and diseases of the human race. The human race is not very peaceful, so it is full of emotion! ”

Liang Qiangping listened excitedly, and asked from time to time: "Where is your home?" Far from here? ”

The old man replied: "Far away! Faraway! A planet in the vast universe named Yi Xing. He stopped suddenly, trying to continue, but couldn't.

Liang Qiangping asked again: "Why did you come to Jingxing?" ”

The old man stroked his white beard lightly with his right hand, shook his head and sighed and said: "Fleeing and looking for relatives, Yi Xing was destroyed by the war!" Speaking of this, the old man couldn't say any more, only shook his head and sighed. He walked to the mouth of the cave and looked up.

Liang Qiang was stunned, Yi Xing was destroyed? How scary would that be? How many people would have to die?

Although he didn't know what Yi Xing's destruction meant, he must have been very sad to see the old man's face full of sadness and fleeing all the way to Jingxing. It's a million times more sad than falling into a cave!

He didn't continue to ask questions, so as not to make the old man sad. When he saw the old man holding the bamboo flute he made in his hand, he stepped forward and comforted: "Old man, you should treat this place as your home, don't be sad!" How about I play a song for you? ”

The old man turned his head, looked at him for a while, and said, "Okay! I was trying to soothe myself. ”

Liang took the bamboo flute with both hands, stood on the stone in the middle of the cave, and began to play. He didn't know what music to play for a while, so he only blew a few times randomly, and he felt that the sound quality was good! Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to mind, and the music came to mind, which was the song that I often played with Song Xi when I was in school - "Scarborough Manor".

He took a full breath and played slowly. The sound of the flute is crisp and melodious, resounding through the cave.

The golden dragon had already erected two tentacles, tilted his head sideways, and listened intoxicated.

The old man listened to the pure and pleasant music he played, and couldn't help nodding in admiration. After the song, he laughed for a while and praised: "Good song!" Good tunes! ”

The old man praised him like this, and Liang Qiangping felt a little unnatural. He blushed and said, "The song is a good song, but I made a mess!" ”

The old man smiled and said, "Young man, don't be modest! Can you tell me what your plans are for the future? ”

Liang Qiangping pondered for a while and said, "Originally, I wanted to wait for you to wake up and repay you for saving your life. Now that you're awake, I don't know how to repay you, I..."

The old man interrupted and said, "It is providence that you and I know each other!" It's you who haven't given up on life, I'm just doing my best, you don't have to care too much! Don't mention the matter of repaying the favor! As a young person, you must have ideals, you can't give up on yourself, and you must do more good deeds for the people in the world! As he spoke, the old man suddenly coughed, his face pale.

Liang Qiangping listened, his face was full of shame, he had been decadent all these years!

The old man sat down, breathed a sigh of relief, and saw Liang Kuoping standing in place, he suddenly asked, "Young man, where are we talking about?" ”

Liang Qiang came back to his senses suddenly, sat down respectfully, raised his head and responded: "Grandpa, you just said that young people should have ideals and do more good deeds for the common people in the world in life. ”

After hearing this, the old man's eyes lit up, and he smiled slightly: "Look at my memory, when I am old, there are many problems!" I think when I was younger, I never forgot to read articles. Now that I'm older and weaker, it's no better than ever! He looked up and let out a long sigh.

Liang Qiangping smiled: "Although the body is old, the heart will never be old." ”

The old man smiled and said: "Well said, the heart is never old!" He looked up at Liang Qiangping carefully, the young man in front of him was no longer the teenager he was five years ago, he had really grown up! It can be seen from his energetic eyes that he has unlimited potential and is a good seedling that should be cultivated well.

The old man stretched out two old hands and grabbed Liang Qiangping's hands, and asked in a solemn voice: "Young man, are you willing to dedicate your life to the cause of human peace?" He had secretly observed Liang for five years before deciding to pass on what he had learned all his life.

Liang Qiangping listened to it and was pleasantly surprised, do I really have a relationship with the old man? Since I was a child, I have had the desire to benefit the people in the world, and what he asked this time was not intentionally asking me? He pondered for a while and said, "Of course I do, I have already died once, and of course my life is to be dedicated to mankind. ”

The old man laughed and said, "Okay! So I make an exception and take you as an apprentice, and teach you what I have learned. ”

Liang Qiangping listened to it, and was excited, and immediately kowtowed to his teacher.

The old man helped him up and said solemnly: "I have two conditions, you must agree." ”

Liang Qiangping nodded and replied, "Master, please speak." ”

The old man stroked his long beard and said slowly: "First, don't ask me about my body; Second, you must be a good Samaritan and do good deeds for humanity for the rest of your life. ”

Liang Qiangping listened to it and readily agreed. But he couldn't understand why the master didn't allow him to ask about his body, could it be that Yi Xing really perished, worried that he would invite disaster if he knew about his situation? Maybe the master thinks farther than ordinary people! As for the second condition, of course, it is a good thing, if you don't do more good things for human beings when you live, then what are you doing when you live?

After Liang Mad's apprenticeship was completed, the old man formally taught him the skills. He arranged classes for Liang Qiangping, and the schedule was full from morning to night. After getting up in the morning and practicing, he recites the scriptures and teaches the scriptures.

The old man is indeed amazing! He knew by heart all the classical scriptures of the earth's human beings. He taught Liang that he did not need a textbook, but only dictated.

Liang Qiangping has not studied for several years, he is very unfamiliar with words, and his memory is not good, so he studied a "Analects" for more than three months, but he still can't memorize it. In desperation, he used a stone knife to carve the key points on the stone wall, reciting them in the morning and evening, and memorizing them one by one. The next step was to study the Tao Te Ching and the Diamond Sutra, and it took more than three months to memorize them. After that, the old man taught him to study the "Cosmic Energy Sutra" written by his first teacher, Guangling Sage.

The old man taught him very patiently, worked tirelessly, and taught him everything he had learned all his life.

Although Liang Qiangping loves classic classics, his head is indeed a little clumsy, and it took him five years to complete it. He couldn't understand why Master only taught himself the literature and not the practical techniques.

The old man called him to him and said, "Disciple, you have to understand a truth. What is reading for? In particular, the study of classic ideological works is to open up the wisdom of your life. Reading lies in Mingzhi and reasoning. What is Mingzhi? To be indifferent to fame and fortune, to have ideals and ambitions, a sense of responsibility and a sense of crisis. What is Rationale? To be a man is to distinguish between good and evil, to do good deeds, and to avoid evil thoughts. In the past few years, I have taught you to learn literature for the teacher, which is to cultivate your moral sentiments and let you learn how to behave. If you can't do it well, how do you do it? Even if you have great ability, if you don't have the right mind, you will be a scourge after all, do you understand this truth? ”

Liang Ranping listened, nodded and responded: "Listen to the master's teachings!" ”

The old man continued: "Being a man is self-cultivation, Qi family, governing the country, and leveling the world!" Self-cultivation makes people clear and reasonable, the Qi family must be filial piety and good, the country must be governed by benevolence, the world is leveled, respect the way and etiquette, and be virtuous to the people. ”

Although Liang Qiangping has several years of literary skills, he will not be able to comprehend the profound connotations of these great truths said by his master for a while, so he can only write them down one by one first, and then comprehend them one by one later. If you think about it carefully, what Master taught and Professor Song Renjie seem to be the same as what Professor Song Renjie teaches on a daily basis!

The old man continued: "It's almost the same thing that should be taught to you as a teacher, I hope you can understand it well." With that, he got up and walked towards the outlet.
