002, the ancestral hall is strange
At noon, he went back to cook, and Mo Tiange came to the ancestral hall again.
In the morning, all the children in the Old Master's clan were literate, but in the afternoon, only the children with high hopes came.
Mo Tiange is a daughter, she can't take the scientific examination, and it is not convenient to go to the town to seek work, so she didn't need to learn anything more, but the old master was very respectful of her father's knowledge, so he looked at her differently. In addition, her mother also felt that her father was very knowledgeable, and she should also study more, instead of spending time on her parents like ordinary village girls.
The homework in the afternoon was much more casual than in the morning, and five or six children either read and practiced calligraphy by themselves, or were taught by the old master alone.
Mo Tiange came in, saluted the master, and entered the library.
The Mo family is not a big family, and the ancestral hall only has a lobby, a courtyard and east and west wings. The lobby enshrines the spirits of the ancestors of the past dynasties, the backyard is the place where the Chinese New Year adds Ding to eat the ancestral hall wine, the first half of the east wing room has been changed into a school, the second half is the library room, and the west wing room lives a few lonely old people, and they guard the ancestral hall on weekdays.
The library is not large, there are six bookshelves against the wall, and there are thousands of books in total, which have been passed down by the Mo family for generations.
Mo Tiange pulled a stool to the east, the books on this bookshelf are all travelogues, popular words, and many pictures, which are suitable for children like her who have not been in school for a long time.
She likes to read these miscellaneous books, the old master didn't say anything, a woman, and she can't do scientific research, it doesn't matter what books she reads.
Mo Tiange picked out a book, found a copy of the "Great Jin Dictionary" and put it next to it, and sat by the window to look at it.
The book is called "A Brief Encounter with the Heavenly Pole". It is said that the world is so big, there are countless lands and oceans, and the place where they are located is called the Heavenly Pole. The sky is extremely large, including the Jin Kingdom and more than a dozen other large and small countries, there are vast forests in the northeast, a desert in the west, glaciers in the north, and mountains in the south.
This book records the strange stories of the heavens.
Legend has it that at the southern end of the heavenly pole, there is a mountain range across it, which is called Kunwu. Kunwu stretches for thousands of miles, the peaks and peaks are continuous, from east to west, no one has been able to cross since ancient times. Mortals not far from the mountain range, occasionally can see the purple clouds in the mountain, colorful flashing, into the mountain to seek, but will be lost in the clouds, only turn back, to find a way out.
Gradually, people said that this mountain was a fairy mountain, and only immortals could enter it.
The immortals who live on Kunwu Mountain inhale the clouds and dew in the morning, eat the moon essence at night, go to the heavens and the earth, and do everything. If they find the spiritual root in the mortal world, they will bring it back to the Immortal Mountain to cultivate, and if they become a cultivator, they will become immortals. Once you become an immortal, you can turn your hands into clouds and cover your hands for rain, step on clouds to come and go for thousands of miles, move mountains and fall into the sea and the sky into the earth, and you can also look immortal.
People in the world all want to enter the immortal mountain and practice immortal bones, but unfortunately the spiritual root is difficult to find, and for immortals, most people have only heard of it in legends.
There is a story in this book. In ancient times, a monarch of the Chu State, who loved Taoism and wanted to cultivate into immortals, summoned Taoists from all over the world to Kyoto, and looked for a profound person to worship as a national teacher. Just when the whole country Taoist people were trying the Taoism, a beggar covered in dirt walked into the dojo and said, "You are worthy of carrying shoes with me, all the Taoists were furious, but the beggar laughed, and when he raised his finger, a deep pool suddenly appeared in the center of the platform, and then he raised his hand, and the deep pool disappeared but ignited a fire. Everyone present was shocked, the king of Chu wanted to become a national teacher, but the beggar left in the dust and disappeared.
It is also recorded that there was a scholar in the Liang State, his family was poor, he studied hard, and finally won the top prize, but he offended the powerful people of the dynasty at the Qionglin banquet and was sent to manage the library of the Hanlin Academy. The dignified champion Lang has been nested in the library for ten years, and the future is not bright, but ten years later, this champion Lang found the immortal law in the library and realized the Tao overnight. When the powerful man who offended that year learned of this, he panicked, but Zhuang Yuanlang laughed it off and rode away.
Mo Tiange was watching with relish, when suddenly someone stood in front of her, Mo Tiange raised his head, hurriedly closed the book and stood up: "Master." ”
The old master nodded, took the book in her hand and turned a few pages, and asked, "Do you know everything?" ”
Mo Tiange replied: "I don't know some words, I will check the dictionary, and if I can't find them, I will write them down, and ask the master next time." ”
The old master handed her the book: "Okay, reading more is the best way to read and write, you can continue." ”
"Yes, Master."
The sun was setting in the west, and Mo Tiange put the books back on the bookshelf and went out to clean the school.
The other children had already gone back, and the old master had also gone to the back hall to eat, and she was the only one in the front hall.
She paused as she passed the back door of the lobby after wiping the table, sweeping the floor, and taking out the trash.
Inside, there seems to be light.
After looking at it for a long time, she put down the dustpan and leaned closer.
Women are not allowed to enter the ancestral hall, even if they recruit a son-in-law, they must be entered by their husbands in the ancestral hall, so Mo Tiange has never entered this hall where the spiritual seat is placed.
At this time, the door of the lobby was closed, and the hazy light was like light and smoke, and it was really not clear to see. She looked left and right, saw that there was no one around, hesitated for a while, couldn't help it, put the dustpan aside, tiptoed into it.
The lobby was tall and closed, and the whole room was pitch black, except for the glimmer of light from the panes and the light from the back door.
She cautiously approached and noticed that the light seemed to come from the top spiritual seat.
Rows of spiritual seats were placed in the lobby, there were forty or fifty of them, and even the walls on both sides were full, and they looked extremely terrifying.
Mo Tiange flinched a little, but as soon as she came in, the light became brighter.
She couldn't control her curiosity, looked up, and found that the highest level had only one spiritual position.
The spiritual seat is white, very similar to jade, and there is a statue of Daojun carved from white jade in my grandfather's house. But this spiritual position is whiter in color, and there seems to be a white gas like a mist floating on it.
Mo Tiange looked around, brought a chair from the corner and put it next to the spiritual seat, stepped on it, it was just high enough. She cautiously reached out and grabbed the slot.
She was short, and almost half of her body leaned against the desk before she got the spiritual position in her hands.
It was a little cold, and the white air permeated her hand, and she could already see it clearly.
Mo Tiange turned over the spiritual position and saw that there were five words on it: Mo Yaoqing's position. There is only one name, and it is different from the others.
The white qi became thicker and thicker, and even began to flood her body, and she stared at the spiritual position, and found that the white light was also getting brighter and brighter. The light was originally just white, but gradually it became bright, and she couldn't help but widen her eyes when she saw such a miraculous thing.
The light flickered suddenly, and disappeared into her eyebrows. She was startled, her eyes suddenly lost focus, and then she slowly closed her eyes and fell out of her chair.
