101 Master of One Lamp

The stone beam is already very steep, but there is still a break in the middle, and you must accelerate to rush up before you can jump over. This is a test of people's courage and skills, and I don't know how to buy a lamp to live here, food, clothing, and housing, and the next trip is too difficult.

After crossing nine cliffs in succession, a person who looked like a scholar was already waiting here. As soon as he saw the two of them, he politely arched his hand and said: "Disciple Zhu Ziliu, meet the two seniors!" The tutor has been waiting for a long time, please come with me. ”

Under the leadership of Zhu Ziliu, the three of them passed through a lotus pond before coming to a small temple. This temple is not a land temple, a mountain temple or anything like that, but a small temple where Master Yideng lives.

This small temple looks shabby, but it is already a luxury to build a temple here, and in fact it is still a very tycoon lifestyle.

Although Master Yideng is a real wealthy family, he is still very modest, knowing that Hong Qigong and Wang Jinlong are coming, he greeted him at the door early. He and Hong Qigong are old friends, and they are already familiar with each other, and when they meet, they just talk and joke casually, and then turn their attention to Wang Jinlong.

Of course, Wang Jinlong couldn't be as casual as Hong Qigong, and solemnly hugged his fists and said: "Yang Tiexin meets Master Yideng, and Brother Huang Yaoshi wants me to say hello to you on his behalf!" ”

Master Yideng was surprised: "Oh, you call Huang Yaoshi big brother? What is your relationship? ”

Wang Jinlong said: "Brother Huang and I hit it off at first sight, and thanks to him, the two of us became brothers with different surnames. ”

Master Yideng said in surprise: "This is rare, Huang Yaoshi is arrogant, few people can enter his eyes, I didn't expect that there would be a day to worship with others." It seems that Brother Yang is by no means vulgar, and when he arrives here today, he must be close to him. ”

Wang Jinlong said a few words of humility, and the two of them came to the quiet room and sat down together. Looking at the quiet room alone, Master Yilan is very hard, not even a chair, only a few futons. Wang Jinlong can only follow the customs of the locals, and sit on the futon with Hong Qigong on the left and right.

After Zhu Ziliu brought the tea, he stood by the door. At the beginning, he was the prime minister of Dali State, but now he has become a small guy, and there is no one in this battle.

After a few words of gossip, Yideng asked: "Brother Yang, Brother Yang wrote to me before, saying that you want me to help translate the general outline of the "Nine Yin True Scripture", is this really the case?" ”

Wang Jinlong smiled: "Is this still fake? Master, please see, this is the transcript of the "Nine Yin True Scripture". ”

As he spoke, he took out the scripture he had copied from his bosom and handed it to Master Yideng.

Yideng took it and flipped through a few pages, and asked with a somewhat embarrassed face: "Brother Yang, here, and here, what is the word?" ”

Wang Jinlong stretched out his head to take a look and found that all the things he didn't recognize were simplified characters written by himself. He found that it should be embarrassing to himself, although he inherited Yang Tiexin's memory and knew traditional characters, but when he wrote, he still wrote it in simplified Chinese at every turn, and he didn't find it for so many years, can he not be embarrassed?

It is said that most of the simplified characters are variant characters that have existed for a long time, but now it is still the Song Dynasty, and many glyphs have not yet appeared, so it is not surprising that they don't know a lamp. In particular, the general outline is all inexplicable sentences, and it is impossible to guess the meaning of an unknown word in context.

Wang Jinlong had no choice but to say: "The general outline looks inexplicable, and I guess that the pronunciation of Sanskrit is marked with Chinese characters." In fact, it's better if you don't read the original text, I'll read it to you, and it will be more convenient for you to listen to the translation. ”

Yideng had no choice but to nod and say, "Okay, you can read it." ”

At this time, Hong Qigong suddenly said: "You guys are chatting, I have something to ask the scholar." Scholar, let's go out and talk. ”

Without waiting for Zhu Ziliu to speak, Wang Jinlong said, "Brother Hong, what do you have to say later?" The scriptures are translated and need your help to read them. ”

Hong Qigong shook his head and said, "There is a lamp master here, what else do you want me to refer to?" Or you talk, I'm ......"

Wang Jinlong interrupted: "Brother Hong, you are not refreshing enough, isn't it just a "Nine Yin True Scripture"? Why twist and pinch? ”

Master Yideng also said: "Seventh brother, what Brother Yang said is reasonable. He and Brother Yao asked me to translate the scriptures, which shows the amount of his belly, what is the value of one more person? ”

Hong Qigong had no choice but to nod and said, "Okay, I'm not hypocritical." It's just that I don't understand this Sanskrit at all, and I have to rely on you, the master. ”

Wang Jinlong began to recite the strange scriptures, and Master Yideng wrote them down as he listened. However, he didn't know whether the level of Sanskrit was not up to par, or the Sanskrit pronunciation recorded in Chinese characters was not standard, which made the translation process stumble.

Finally translated the whole text, Yideng looked at the dozen pages of white paper he recorded, and said in a tangled voice: "This ...... It doesn't seem to be smooth! ”

Wang Jinlong and Hong Qigong both leaned over curiously to look at it, and sure enough, they felt that there was something wrong with the seventh sentence. Reading on, the twelfth sentence is a little awkward. When I looked back after reading the whole article, I found that there were a few more inappropriate places. According to the statistics, there are seventeen or eighteen places that are obviously wrong.

Wang Jinlong scratched his head and said, "How can this be?" It shouldn't be! ”

In the original plot, Guo Jing read the general outline of the "Nine Yin True Scripture" by rote, and the Tianzhu monk easily translated it, why can't it be his turn? Is it a problem with your own accent, or is it a problem with the level of a master of the lamp?

Yideng and Hong Qigong didn't think so much, and discussed the general outline itself, trying to use their martial arts knowledge to mend the inappropriateness.

Wang Jinlong turned around twice in place, and suddenly said to Zhu Ziliu: "Brother Zhu, please trouble you with one thing, re-transcribe the general outline." If there's a typo you don't recognize, ask me and be sure to restore the text. ”

Zhu Ziliu looked at a lamp, and a lamp nodded at him, and then he agreed, took a pen and paper, and began to copy on the low table on the side.

The identity of Master Yideng is too high, he found the mistakes in the scriptures, and pointed out them one by one to ask Wang Jinlong to correct them, he always felt that something was wrong, and it felt like teaching Wang Jinlong a lesson. With Zhu Ziliu pointing out these mistakes and discussing them with Wang Jinlong to correct them, it became a mutual discussion, and it became much more comfortable.

The two compared it word by word, and found that there were not many places that needed to be modified, after all, Wang Jinlong had copied the original text, and even if there were cases where it was written in simplified Chinese, there would not be too many. However, the accent is indeed a serious problem, even if Wang Jinlong and Zhu Ziliu speak official dialect, there are inevitably some differences. If they all speak Chinese, they can understand each other, and they can use it to pronounce Sanskrit pronunciation in Chinese, which is a big problem.

The official dialect of the Song Dynasty was based on the Bianliang dialect. Wang Jinlong's modern Mandarin and Jiangnan accent inherited from Yang Tiexin are very different from Bianliang dialect. The four of them, Master Yideng and Yuqiao Gengyu, are all from Dali, and their accents are even more non-standard. Fortunately, there was also a Hong Qigong present, he was known as the northern beggar, and the main activity area was the north, and the north at this time referred to the Bianliang area. Therefore, it is most appropriate for Hong Qigong to recite the scriptures.

Even if reciting scriptures is just a simple thing, it makes Hong Qigong feel that he is not taking advantage of it in vain, and it is still somewhat useful.

The scriptures are recited by Hong Qigong's standard Bianliang accent, which is closer to Sanskrit. After all, Huang Shang was an official back then, and the Bianliang accent was a must, and the transliteration of Sanskrit with Chinese characters was of course the standard pronunciation. And the more accurate Sanskrit language also made Master Yideng listen more accurately, and most of the mistakes were corrected at once, but in the end, there were still six or seven left, and he could not figure it out.

In the end, Master Yideng could only sigh helplessly: "I am still not proficient enough in Sanskrit, and I really can't do anything." If only my junior brother had been here, he would have been able to translate clearly. ”

Hong Qigong asked, "Who is your junior brother?" Where is he now? ”

Master Yideng said: "My junior brother is a native of Tianzhu, with profound attainments in Buddhism, and he is also very good at detoxification, and is good at treating all kinds of poisonous injuries. He often traveled back and forth between Middle-earth and Tianzhu, but at this time he was far away in Tianzhu, and he didn't know what would come again. ”

Hong Qigong sighed: "Tianzhu is 108,000 miles away, and far water can't quench your thirst!" ”

Wang Jinlong didn't expect to go around and return to the original point, he asked unwillingly: "Is there no other way except for Tianzhu Monk?" ”

Master Yideng said: "This is not necessarily, there are many monks who are proficient in Sanskrit, such as my uncle Master Tiande, Sanskrit is no different from Tianzhu people." ”

Wang Jinlong was stunned when he heard it, there was no such Tiande master in the original plot. However, it is not surprising that there is such a figure, a lamp master from Dali, and Dali has worshiped Buddha for generations, and Tianlong Temple is the family temple of Dali royalty. Why didn't Master Yideng stay in Tianlong Temple after becoming a monk, but ran to the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, the reason is unknown, but he does have teachers and elders, there is no doubt about it.

Although I don't know who Master Tiande is, since he is a monk of Tianlong Temple, he should be able to be trusted, Wang Jinlong immediately slapped his thigh and said: "Then let's go to Dali again and meet this Master Tiande!" ”

Master Yideng said with some embarrassment: "This ...... I'll fix a book and let Zhu Ziliu accompany you on a trip. ”

Wang Jinlong and Hong Qigong understood as soon as they heard it, Yideng must have something hidden, and they couldn't or didn't want to go back to Dali. The two glanced at each other, and Wang Jinlong nodded: "That's okay, it's enough to have the master's letter and Brother Zhu's introduction." ”

Master Yilan did not talk nonsense and immediately began to write letters. Hong Qigong frowned and said, "Do you want to go to Dali?" I have other things to do, but I'm afraid I don't have that much time. ”

Wang Jinlong said with a little disdain: "You are basically a helper, what do you have to do?" ”

Hong Qigong glanced at him and said, "If you don't care about the affairs of the beggar gang, you can't have anything else?" ”

Wang Jinlong hurriedly smiled and said: "I didn't mean that, I mean, I know that there is a chef who can be called the best in the world!" How about you accompany me on a trip to Dali, and when I come back, I'll take you to meet the chef? ”

Hong Qigong's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said, "The number one chef in the world? Dare to call such a name, even if it is not the first, it will not be too bad, then we will decide! ”
