Chapter 144: The young man is ignorant and talks rhetorically and hits the south wall.
Return to Xufu.
Xu Shilin's anger did not subside, and he was indignant.
Chen Kang is too barbaric, too rude, and not a true gentleman.
Xu Shilin is a scholar, he has been taught by the old master in the school since he was a child, he is polite and a gentleman is like jade.
However, Chen Kang's actions today have subverted Xu Shilin's thinking and three views.
Xu Shilin couldn't even scold people, so he could only keep saying that Chen Kang was rude, shameless, and barbaric. wanted to scold people, but Xu Shilin couldn't find vulgar and ugly words.
Li Bilian saw Xu Shilin coming back with her face covered, there were still tears in her eyes, and she hurriedly asked, "Cousin, did you fight with the people in the academy again?" Your classmates have deceived others too much. I'm going to tell my dad and tell him to clean them up. β
Li Bilian is the only daughter of Li Gongfu and Xu Jiaorong, two years younger than Xu Shilin, with a beautiful appearance, ice and snow intelligence, and a beautiful girl.
Li Bilian and her cousin Xu Shilin have a good relationship, and the two are childhood sweethearts.
It's just that Xu Shilin's character is too weak.
Sometimes, Xu Shilin was bullied outside, and he needed his cousin Li Bilian to stand up for him.
Xu Shilin's character is completely inherited from his father Xu Xian. The character is soft to this extent, and it is no longer kindness, but cowardice.
Xu Shilin said: "It's not those classmates. It's Chen Kang. β
Li Bilian was stunned for a moment and asked, "Cousin, who is Chen Kang?" β
Xu Shilin said: "I don't know who he is. My aunt said that Chen Kang's relationship with my father and mother is very good. β
Xu Shilin only learned today that his father and mother were in Jinshan Temple, and his mother Bai Suzhen was suppressed under the Leifeng Pagoda.
Li Bilian shook her head.
I haven't heard of the name "Chen Kang".
Li Bilian said: "Cousin, do you want to tell my father about the beating you were beaten?" β
Xu Shilin said: "You don't need to tell your uncle. That Chen Kang beat me in front of my aunt. Chen Kang is strong in martial arts, but he is also vulgar. I'm afraid my uncle is no match for him. β
In short, Xu Shilin decided that Chen Kang was a barbarian who did not understand etiquette, did not read poetry and books, and was vulgar.
Xu Shilin comforted himself, he was a scholar, so why should he care about people like Chen Kang.
Xu Shilin didn't follow Li Bilian to say more, turned around and went back to his bedroom.
Li Bilian said secretly: "Chen Kang beat my cousin in front of my mother? Didn't my mother stop Chen Kang? Strange. When my mother comes back, I must ask her. β
Suddenly, Li Bilian became a little curious about Chen Kang.
β¦β¦
A few days later.
Chen Kang took Xu Shilin out of the county seat.
Li Bilian shouted behind her back: "Chen Kang, don't bully my cousin on the road." β
Li Gongfu scolded: "Bilian, Hugh is talking nonsense. Brother Chen is your elder, how can you call him by his first name? It's not big, it's not small. β
Li Bilian pouted, unconvinced: "What." That Chen Kang is younger than my cousin, and his skin is whiter and tenderer than mine. Where does it look like an elder? β
Xu Jiaorong said: "No matter what Chen Kang looks like. He is the elder of you and Shilin. β
Li Gongfu sighed: "It's really strange, almost twenty years have passed, I am already old, and Chen Kang's appearance has not changed at all." Could it be that Chen Kang, like his younger siblings, is a cultivator? β
Xu Jiaorong said: "Chen Kang said that he can only do martial arts. β
Li Gongfu said: "I also know martial arts. Why am I getting old? β
Xu Jiaorong glanced at Li Gongfu.
Li Gongfu's martial arts and sword skills, can they be regarded as real martial arts? Three-legged cat kung fu. Crop handles only. You can also bully ordinary thieves.
Li Gongfu's martial arts are not the same as Chen Kang's martial arts.
Xu Shilin followed behind Chen Kang.
"My cousin called you by your name, why aren't you angry?" Xu Shilin asked.
Chen Kang said: "Names are what people shout. Why be angry? β
When Xu Shilin heard it, he felt that it made sense, but he felt that something was wrong.
Isn't it rude to call him by his first name?
Chen Kang sneered: "Xu Shilin, I know what you kid is thinking. Is it another set of things that are reasonable and rude? β
Xu Shilin said: "So what? β
Chen Kang said: "So, what do you think the knowledge in the Four Books and Five Classics is in addition to human sophistication and in addition to receiving people and things? Can you solve practical problems in reality by relying on the Four Books and Five Classics? β
Xu Shilin has a mysterious confidence in the Four Books and Five Classics, nodded and said, "Of course it can solve the problem." This time I will go to Jinshan Temple, I will be moved by emotion, know with reason, and persuade Master Fahai. Let him let my mother go. β
Chen Kang almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
Move with affection, know with reason?
What an ignorant and fearless child.
Xu Shilin was young and full of enthusiasm, thinking that the knowledge in the Four Books and Five Classics was the truth.
seems naΓ―ve and ignorant, but in fact, Xu Shilin was affected by the environment.
The impact of the human environment and living environment on a person's thoughts and three views is really too great.
Chen Kang nodded and said, "Okay." When I arrived at Jinshan Temple and saw the old monk Fahai, Xu Shilin, you let me see the power of the Four Books and Five Classics. I'm looking forward to you convincing Fahai to let him go. β
β¦β¦
The incense of Jinshan Temple is very vigorous, and pilgrims are endless.
It is well known that Master Fahai of Jinshan Temple is a monk with profound Dharma. It is believed that he was enshrined as a national teacher because of the profundity of Buddhism.
In fact, anyone with a discerning eye knows that Jinshan Temple and Fahai are valued by the imperial court because of Fahai's means of subduing demons.
In other words, Fahai has strength and strength.
Buddhist scriptures, Jinshan Temple can be spread casually.
However, it is impossible for Jinshan Temple to pass on the secret art of cultivation.
The two came to Jinshan Temple.
Xu Shilin said: "There are a lot of people. β
Chen Kang said: "There are many people and few people, what does it have to do with you. Let's go see the old monk Fahai. β
The Buddha hall in the front yard of Jinshan Temple is a place used to entertain pilgrims and let people worship the Buddha.
Those small courtyard pavilions in the back mountain are the places where the books and core disciples live.
The mountain behind Jinshan Temple is not allowed to enter the pilgrims.
"Stop."
Just arrived at the intersection of the back mountain.
Chen Kang and Xu Shilin were stopped by a young monk.
The young monk said: "Two donors, the back mountain is a forbidden place and cannot be entered. Please turn around and leave. β
Xu Shilin was a little panicked.
If you can't enter the back mountain, you won't be able to see Master Fahai. But what can I do?
Chen Kang said: "Little Monk, we haven't seen each other for many years, but I didn't expect your strength to increase a lot. Without further ado, take me to meet the old monk Fahai. β
The young monk in front of him was Fahai's disciple, the little novice "to the sky" back then.
The Supreme Sky Monk stared at Chen Kang and said in surprise, "You are ...... Chen Kang! β
Chen Kang nodded and said, "It's Chen." If you recognize me, it means you remember me. β
Of course, Zhikong remembered Chen Kang.
Chen Kang was in Qiantang County at the beginning, and he also forcibly broke into the small Buddha hall, but the little monk couldn't stop him. This made the little monk of the sky ashamed and indignant.
Monk Zhikong looked at Chen Kang vigilantly and said in a cold voice, "Chen Kang, what do you want to do?" Let me tell you, this place is Jinshan Temple, the holy land of Buddhism, not Qiantang County. You don't mess around. β
Chen Kang said, "Okay. You talk less nonsense. I came to Jinshan Temple to see your master Fahai, not to fight with you. What's more, even if you want to fight, ten of you can't be my opponent. β
A trace of anger flashed in the eyes of the Supreme Sky Monk: "Chen Kang, you dare to underestimate my cultivation?" β
Chen Kang shouted: "Fahai, the old man came to visit, and your apprentice stopped me again." If I clean up the little monk of the sky, don't you want to be angry. β
In the meditation room.
Fahai was depressed for a while.
Old friend?
Chen Kang is a fart old man.
Fahai and Chen Kang are just a one-sided relationship.
At that time, it was very unpleasant to meet.
Fahai went to Qiantang County that time, but was "driven away" by Chen Kang.
Fahai sighed and transmitted the voice with mana: "To the sky, bring Chen Kang to see the poor monk." β
Monk Zhikong clasped his hands together and said, "Yes, Master." β
The monk took Chen Kang and Xu Shilin into the back mountain.
Chen Kang said: "The back mountain of Jinshan Temple is different. The aura is abundant, the air is fresh, and there is no smoke and dryness. The back mountain and the front hall are two worlds. β
The Supreme Sky Monk glared at Chen Kang. What does Chen Kang mean by this? Does it mean that Jinshan Temple treats pilgrims differently?
Come to the meditation room.
Meet the old monk Fahai.
The meditation room is large, and there is a portrait of Jizo King Bodhisattva hanging on the wall.
A few meditating futons on the ground.
It seems a little empty.
However, Chen Kang feels that this meditation room is not simple, and the spatial layout in the room gives people a sense of Zen, which makes people feel refreshed and can eliminate distracting thoughts.
Don't talk about cultivation, even if an ordinary person lives in this meditation room, eats coarse tea and light meals, and has no distracting thoughts, I am afraid that he can live to be 100 years old without illness and disaster.
Compared with back then, the appearance of the old monk Fahai has not changed at all, and he is still so old. The long snow-white eyebrows and beard give people the illusion of a high-ranking monk.
Don't look at the compassion on Monk Hai's face and think that he is a Buddha and Bodhisattva. If Fahai is ruthless, he will be even more ferocious and violent than ordinary land immortals.
Fahai said: "Master Chen, I haven't seen you for seventeen years, and you are still in your prime. The old man has been checking your details for many years, and he has not found your heels, which is really unbelievable. However, I want to congratulate Lord Chen, your martial arts have actually reached a higher level. β
Fahai could see that Chen Kang was no different from back then on the surface, but Chen Kang's strength was much stronger than before.
If he made a move at this moment, Fahai was not completely sure that he would suppress Chen Kang.
Chen Kang laughed and said, "Old Monk Fahai, you speak really nicely. I'll just think you're complimenting me. Although Chen has some achievements in martial arts, he is still not your opponent. β
The Supreme Sky Monk sneered: "Chen Kang, you are a mortal martial artist, even if you have reached the peak of martial arts, but you have no true qi and no mana, what qualifications do you have to compare with my master?" Bite off more than one can chew. β
Chen Kang said: "Supreme Monk, even if I don't have mana and don't practice Taoism, if I want to clean you up, it will be easy. β
The Supreme Monk has mana, but he is definitely not Chen Kang's opponent.
Monk Zhikong looked annoyed and stared at Chen Kang.
Fahai said: "Zhikong, you go out first." β
Monk Zhikong nodded and said, "Yes, Master." β
When leaving, the Supreme Monk glared at Chen Kang fiercely.
When the monk saw Chen Kang, he was unhappy.
Fahai asked, "Chen Kang, what do you want to do if you bring a child to Jinshan Temple?" β
Chen Kang sat casually on a futon and poured himself a cup of tea.
Chen Kang was not polite at all, and regarded the meditation room as his home.
After Xu Shilin came in, he was restrained and at a loss.
He had never seen anything like it.
Chen Kang said: "Old monk Fahai, this time it's not me who wants to see you, it's Xu Shilin, this kid, who wants to see you." He learned that you suppressed his mother under the Lei Feng Tower, and he was going to come and talk to you. β
The golden light in Fahai's eyes flashed, and he said, "Oh? Is he the son of Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian? β
Chen Kang said: "Don't underestimate this child. He is a reading seed and has the resources to be a champion. I just sent him to Jinshan Temple to meet you Fahai. Okay, you can talk now, leave me alone. β
Fahai looked at Xu Shilin with a gentle face and said, "Child, sit, don't be restrained." I don't know what you want to talk to the old man? β
Xu Shilin sat on the futon, took a deep breath, and said, "Master Fahai, I want to ask you to release my mother." β
Chen Kang looked at Xu Shilin and Fahai talking with a smile.
I have to say that Xu Shilin's Confucian theoretical foundation is very solid. He took "filial piety" as the topic, after all, today's imperial court is to advocate benevolence and filial piety.
Xu Shilin's narration is like doing an eight-strand essay, solving problems, being reasonable, and standing on the moral high ground.
If Chen Kang is a marking teacher, then Xu Shilin must be given full marks.
When it comes to writing articles on the imperial examination, Xu Shilin is really impeccable.
It's a pity.
The big truth in the book is useless when brought to reality.
The reality is cruel, unreasonable, and only talks about the pros and cons and benefits.
Interests, on the other hand, need fists and power to defend them, not to defend them by reason.
Reason goes all over the world. This is the right nonsense.
The old monk Fahai listened to Xu Shilin's narration, nodded from time to time, and folded his hands and chanted "Amitabha".
Obviously, the old monk Fahai didn't expect that Xu Shilin's hard work on the Four Books and Five Classics was so deep.
It is not an exaggeration to say that Xu Shilin is a seed of reading and has the qualifications of a champion.
Xu Shilin is like the reincarnation of Wenqu Xing, he writes articles, and he can definitely write brilliantly.
Xu Shilin talked with Fahai for more than an hour.
In fact, it was mainly Xu Shilin who was persuading and reasoning with Fahai.
Fahai only does three movements. Nod, shake your head, and say "Amitabha".
made Xu Shilin go from being high-spirited and enthusiastic at the beginning to gradually losing his temper.
Xu Shilin's mouth was a little dry.
Chen Kang handed over a cup of tea and said, "Thirsty, right?" Come, have a cup of tea and moisten your throat. Xu Shilin, if you haven't said enough, you can continue. My concentration with the old monk Fahai is not bad, and I have the patience to listen. β
Xu Shilin took a sip of tea.
Looking at Fahai, Xu Shilin said: "Master Fahai, do you agree with these truths I said?" β
Fahai nodded and said, "Child, you have said these truths, and the old man agrees. β
Xu Shilin's face was full of surprise, he felt that he had won, and said excitedly: "Master Fahai, what do you mean, promise to release my mother?" β
Fahai shook his head and said, "Your mother, the old man must not be released." β
Xu Shilin's expression froze suddenly.
Agree with your own reasoning.
He did not agree to release him.
Why?
Chen Kang said: "Xu Shilin, the sage book you read, the truth, is indeed a great truth. No one denies what you say. However, everyone agrees with each other, and when doing things, what should be done or how to do it. You're stupid to read. Do you really think that by reading a few sage books, you can dominate the world and be invincible? β
Xu Shilin lowered his head and trembled.
The truth in the book of the sages can't save the mother,
Fahai will not let people go.
This caused a huge psychological blow to Xu Shilin.
Chen Kang stood up and said, "Ignorant and fearless, childish and ridiculous. Xu Shilin, after you go back, practice martial arts with me. One day, when you have mastered the peerless force and have strong strength, you can push to the Leifeng Tower and rescue your mother. This time, I took you to Jinshan Temple to hit the south wall, hoping that you can turn back and face the cruel reality. β
Xu Shilin didn't get up, he lowered his head and cried.
Chen Kang's tone became stern: "What are you still sitting for?" Hurry up and get out. Shameful things will only be clever and exaggerated. The weak are not qualified to cry. No one has mercy on the weak. Come with me! β
Chen Kang lifted Xu Shilin and walked out of the meditation room.
Fahai looked at the back of Chen Kang leaving, and was ready to make a move several times.
Until Chen Kang went down the back mountain, Fahai was still hesitating.
In the end, Fahai still gave up dealing with Chen Kang.
Fahai sneered: "Chen Kang, you are too confident. Even if Xu Shilin had the blood of the demon clan and was talented, it would be impossible for him to overthrow the Lei Feng Tower. β
Bai Suzhen and Fahai can be suppressed, not to mention Xu Shilin, who has a cowardly personality.
Fahai didn't take Xu Shilin seriously at all. In Fahai's view, Xu Shilin is a waste who can only read, so there is nothing to worry about.
