When he was a child, glasses Liu often told us stories under the big banyan tree at the head of the village, especially love to tell ghost stories, and always scared the children to go home, and often recited the words on the ancient clock that he taught everyone when he walked at night.

I remember that every time before telling a story, he had to tell the origin of the ancient bell again, so that we children could memorize it. Speaking of which, this is indeed a legendary story.

According to glasses Liu, this bell was not originally in our village, but in a temple in the capital, and it has not really been hung out since it was built. And the origin of this bell, such as according to the ambiguous maker of the inscription on the bell body, should be made by a monk, but due to the blurred handwriting, the "first line" should not be his real name, after glasses Liu years of research, he believes that with the addition of two lost strokes, this bell maker should be the Ming Dynasty "strange monk" - Daoyan monk.

People who like history should have an understanding of Daoyan, and some people even think that the Ming Dynasty has been in the country for hundreds of years, and if it is said that according to the merits, the first should be this Taoist monk.

Why did a monk, a person who escaped into the empty door, leave such an important footprint in the history of the Ming Dynasty? According to Liu, he was not an ordinary monk, but a "strange monk" who had learned a series of studies such as Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism, I Ching, and Song and Ming Dynasty science.

When it comes to weirdness, the children will be extremely curious, and every time they talk about this, Liu will solemnly push up his huge frames, and then sit upright and begin to tell us in detail about the "strange monk" Dao Yan.

Dao Yan is his legal name, and his real name is Yao Guangxiao. Sometimes I have tried to wonder if he could have become a powerful politician in the Ming Dynasty if he had not entered the empty door and kept calling Yao Guangxiao. But history does not allow a repeat, he is destined to become a generation of famous monks, but he is also a "strange monk" in the eyes of the world.

It is said that the family should not care about the world and fall in love with Hongchen, but this "strange monk" Daoyan not only intervened in the political pattern of the early Ming Dynasty at that time, but also intervened very thoroughly, and even overthrew an old emperor and supported a new emperor, something that ordinary people would never dare to think of.

Glasses Liu spoke one after another, and we listened slowly and leisurely. Until now, I can still remember that Glasses Liu summarized the four major achievements of life for Monk Daoyan, which can also be said to be the four major mysteries left by Daoyan in his life.

One is to initiate the change of "appeasement"; the second is to explore the mystery of Jianwen; the third is to supervise the "Yongle Grand Canon" and the Yongle Bell; The fourth is to control the Jiao of the Bohai Sea after Liu Bowen.

The first two major mazes have more or less a conclusion in history, for example, advocating the initiation of the "Jingjing" change, at the critical moment when Zhu Di, the ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, was indecisive, it was this monk who helped him win the big idea of rebellion, so that once it happened, the Ming Dynasty changed its generation and established a new one, and since then it has begun the heyday of hard work.

And what was the environment like? None of the strategists and henchmen around Zhu Di had such a resolute heart, and they didn't even dare to say anything about this kind of rebellion, but only a monk who was at large and outside the world resolutely suggested that he should raise troops, why is this? And why is this monk so keen on political affairs?

This has to start with another story, everyone knows Zhuge Liang! Under the premise that he was already quite famous at that time, why didn't he go to Cao Cao, who unified the north, and instead followed Liu Bei, who was poor and white? Many people may not know about the childhood of this Mr. Wolong.

In Zhuge Liang's youthful years, his childhood was beautiful, but because of a sudden great change, he completely stayed away from Cao Cao, and also changed his view of Mingjun in his life. That year, Cao Cao fought in the south and the north, after defeating Yuan Shao, he suddenly remembered his father in the rear, and he wanted to pick up his father to enjoy this glory and preciousness with him, because in the previous few years, Cao Cao was afraid of the uncertain conquest, and had been letting his father idle in a place in Shandong, and at this time, the full-fledged Cao Cao was ready to let his father come to see the world he had gotten.

Cao Cao's father, of course, was very happy, and prepared two hundred carriages of family property, which were ready to be transported to Cao Ying, along with people and belongings. This frightened the magistrate there at that time, thinking that if there were three long and two short in the territory under his jurisdiction, Cao Cao would definitely be punished, so he ordered someone to escort Cao Cao's father's convoy all the way. But who would have expected that the people escorting the convoy in the middle of the road saw that there were so many treasures, and when they saw the money, they killed Cao Cao's father and robbed the treasures.

After Cao Cao learned that his father was killed, he was very angry, not only punished the local officials at the time, but also slaughtered a large number of innocent people, and the young Zhuge Liang lived in that place, he witnessed what Cao Cao did, and also burned Cao Cao's murderous image deeply in his heart, and later more and more people were implicated, and the form became more and more critical, and every day someone was innocently killed, the young Zhuge Liang had to leave his hometown and began a wandering life, This also planted the cause and effect in the heart of the young Mr. Wolong who would never serve Cao Cao.

Dao Yan is the same, when he was young, he experienced the decline at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, and the society was also turbulent, and Zhu Yuanzhang was fighting with Zhang Shicheng in Jiangnan at that time, although it ended with Zhu Yuanzhang winning the world, but the social problems in the early years of the Ming Dynasty were numerous, and only the more capable Ming Jun could really govern the world and let the people live a peaceful life, and Dao Yan chose Zhu Di, the king of Yan, who was both capable and powerful. Therefore, his concern for political affairs, on the one hand, may be that he has political blood in his bones, and from the perspective of his young entry into the temple and his ordination as a monk, why not use political means to achieve peace in the world and the happiness of the people?

Characters like Dao Yan and Zhuge Liang will not use their temporary strength to sway their own direction to follow and defect, the meaning of their life is to use their own wisdom and ideals of governing the world to actively change the times and guide the trend of society.

The second mystery is the Jianwen maze, when Zhu Di won the world, the speculation about the whereabouts of Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen has always been a mystery, of course, the official history is said to be after Nanjing was breached, Emperor Jianwen self-immolation died, there are more sayings in the wild history, and the speculation is even worse, but according to the idea of glasses Liu, this is a hoax in itself, it is a play played by Zhu Di, Zhu Yunwen and Daoyan, that is to say, Zhu Yunwen did not die, but after Zhu Di ascended the throne, he has been hidden by Zhu Di and Daoyan in a certain temple, and Daoyan knows his whereabouts completely, and even often approached, this is why Dao Yan has such a great merit, why he is unwilling to return to the world, do not seek utilitarian benefits, and be content with Buddhist things, it may be that he has seen through the change of power and the impermanence of the world, what can appease the heart more than Qing Xiu.

So what about the two more mazes? These are also the two events related to the ancient bell at the head of the village, and even another important figure of the Ming Dynasty is involved. If this ancient bell has the ability to suppress evil, then does the technique of "Qimen Dunjia" have a certain connection with this bell? Every time he talks about this, glasses Liu has to carefully touch the bronze clock, a historical mystery case, a folk legend, and the curtain slowly opens......
