Chapter 137: Sesame Sage

The next day, when the sun was rising and the warm morning light was shining through the window. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Su Lin also slowly woke up, opened his confused eyes, and found that he was lying on the head of his sister Su Ru's bed and fell asleep.

"It seems that I have done a lot of questions and answers with Liyu Moyi in the past few days, which is really very consuming of spiritual thoughts. Even if I have the help of the holy word 'diligence', I still need to take a good rest. Fortunately, I didn't continue to read last night, and I fell asleep in a daze in Ru'er......"

Stretching his waist, Surin ran the three thoughts in his mind, and after a good night's rest, his spirit and mind had returned to a full state.

"Brother...... Ru'er will be obedient, brother, don't ignore me......"

Although Su Ru on the bed still had her eyes closed, her brows were furrowed tightly, and she was pulling Su Lin's childlike green shirt with one hand, as if she had a nightmare.

"Ru'er is not afraid! Brother will not ignore you if he ignores anyone......" Su Lin smiled, sat back at the head of the bed, patted Su Ru's back gently, and comforted her.

"Brother, Ru'er is afraid, Ru'er is so afraid...... Ru'er has a nightmare, dreaming that her brother is ignoring Ru'er again like before!"

Su Ru's big eyes were filled with tears, tears rolled in her eyes, and she fell as she spoke.

"Ru'er rest assured! The current brother will no longer be heartless, you are the pearl of our family, and my brother will always hold you in the palm of his hand for a lifetime. ”

Su Lin stretched out his palm, held Su Ru's chin and said, "But, your pearl is still relatively heavy......

"Hee-hee...... Brother, today my brother is going to take the government exam, Ru'er...... Ru'er will play a song for her brother?"

Su Ru, who was amused by Su Lin, also walked out of the shadow of the nightmare, turned over and got out of bed, and set up the guqin in the wing room.

"Can you play the whole song now?" said Su Lin in surprise.

"Of course, brother, listen up, Ru'er will bring you a song "Mountains and Flowing Water" by Boya. ”

Sitting down, Su Ru's whole temperament also changed suddenly. If it was a lively girl who was like a rabbit before, now she is quiet, sitting upright and plucking the strings, and a melodious sound of the piano came, which was exactly the same as what Su Lin heard in his dream last night.

At the end of the song "Mountains and Flowing Water", although Su Ru played a lot of wrong notes during the period, Su Lin could feel a sister Su Ru's friendship and thoughts for his brother from the sound wave of the piano.

Ru'er has not yet opened her mind, but she can still use Wenbao Guqin as a carrier to express her thoughts. It shows that opening up the wisdom and opening up the sea of wisdom is not the only cultivation method in this world of thought......"

In addition to the last time in Huamanlou, Su Lin was the first time to have such a close contact with the world's quyi, and I had heard Yuan Duan say before that the music played by a good pianist was very helpful to the thinking of Confucian scholars and conducive to the profundity of thought.

Su Lin didn't know or understand what the principle was, but today from Su Ru's playing the piano, he saw a clue. The Wenbao Guqin in Su Ru's hand is just an ordinary Xiucai Wenbao, worth no more than thousands of taels of silver, but it can be used as a carrier of thought and holy power.

"Before Confucius created the system of sacred power, how did the human race cultivate their thoughts? In addition to Confucius being a saint, weren't there the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, King Wen, King Wu, and Duke of Zhou, and even Lao Tzu of Taoism who did nothing to be a saint? What are these saints cultivating? If the saints don't die, where will they end up?"

From the sound of Su Ru's piano, Su Lin thought a lot, which was the ultimate problem in his Zhihai all along. Ever since the opening of the image of Confucius in Zhihai, Su Lin has been thinking about these questions.

"Brother...... Brother...... I'm done playing, isn't it time for my brother to go to the government examination room?"

When she wasn't playing the piano, Su Ru turned into the lively rabbit again, jumped in front of Su Lin, and pulled him up with a smile, "Like the last county exam, Ru'er accompanied her brother to the examination room!"

"Okay, Ru'er, with you by your side, my brother will definitely be able to win the first place." ”

Retracting his thoughts, Su Lin didn't think about these incomprehensible things for the time being. glanced at Su Ru's guqin again, then went back to the room to clean up briefly, and then went out with Su Ru to the government examination room.

In today's government examination, the entire Tianren Continent, nine countries, and more than 100,000 children from hundreds of prefectures took the exam together, but each prefecture only took the top 20 to get the middle talent, and the first place was Maocai, and the competition was not fierce.

Different from the candidates of the county examination, the students who take the government examination are all children with academic degrees, some of them have accumulated a year or two after being born, some have already taken the government examination several times, accumulated five or six years, and some children are even thirty or forty years old.

"Brother, it's so lively today! Look...... The streets were crowded with people, and everyone was heading towards the government......! When the time comes, they're all going to congratulate their brother!"

As soon as Su Ru arrived on the street, she was happy, and pulled Su Lin through the crowd, not looking like everyone was beautiful at all.

"Ru'er, don't talk nonsense like this. What if my brother doesn't pass the exam? If you say these things and others listen to them, you won't have to laugh off your big teeth after that?"

After Su Lin finished saying this, he was slapped on the back, and it was Yuan Du's voice with a smile: "Brother Su is humble again, this time in the government exam, if Brother Su fails to pass the exam, I'm afraid that no one here will be able to pass the exam!"

"Brother Yuan, why are you? Could it be...... Are you also here to take the government exam today?" Su Lin turned his head to look, and sure enough, it was Yuan Duan, and said with a smile.

"No, no, no...... Brother Su, I'm not as powerful as you. I still can't answer a complete Moyi, how dare I report to the government for the test? Hehe! Didn't I come to cheer on Brother Su and Brother Hong? By the way, what about Brother Hong?"

Yuan Du smiled, touched Su Ru's little head again, and said with a smile, "Ru'er is really getting more and more beautiful, it seems that she has grown a lot taller?"

"Brother Yuan Du is not allowed to touch my head, touching the one that will not grow tall. Su Ru glared at Yuan Duan, then tightened her brother Su Lin's arm, and said to Yuan Duan, "Brother Yuan Duan, if you don't hurry up and study, when my brother is the top student in high school in the future, you may not even be admitted to the exam!"

"Ru'er, I don't dare to compare with your brother, but ......" Yuan Du thought for a while, and then whispered forward to Su Lin and said, "Brother Su, this time the house test is special, you should also know it, right? Some of the children of the half-saint family also participated, and our Jian'an Mansion also came to a powerful person." ”

"Brother Yuan, you actually know that this government test is special, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Su Lin glared at Yuan Du with disdain when he heard this, if Yuan Du had told him this stalk earlier, he wouldn't have known about it yesterday.

"This ...... Brother Su, I thought the Su family would talk to you!, however, this is not the point, do you know who the children of the Half-Saint Family who came to our Jian'an Mansion to participate in the government examination this time?" Yuan Duan quickly changed the topic.

"What does this have to do with me? Even if he is a half-saint, he is just winning or losing in the examination room with real talent and real learning. Although Su Lin said this, after finishing speaking, he added, "What is the origin?"

"No...... Brother Su, look at it...... He was the one who opened the way in front of him, and the prefect personally greeted him......"

As soon as Yuan Duan wanted to tell Su Lin in detail, there was a noise of gongs and drums before the palace, and four cattle barbarians carried a sedan chair and swaggered all the way through the city.

The onlookers had rarely seen a bull barbarian, so they were all frightened, frightened and curious, and they came forward and pointed and discussed.

"This ...... The head of the ox, the body of a man! This is a bull barbarian! What is the origin of the people in the sedan chair who can openly use four ox barbarians as sedan chair drivers?"

"It turns out that this is the legendary bull barbarian, and it's really terrifying! Today is the government test, and the one in the sedan chair is probably the child who participated in the government test, right?"

"Can't you, can Tong Sheng have this kind of pomp? Even the sons of the eight Confucian families, you can't be carried away by a barbarian sedan chair like this!"

......

"What a big show, Brother Yuan, what kind of person is in this sedan chair, so big?" Su Lin had seen the cattle barbarians outside the pass, and the cattle barbarians were more unruly than the horse barbarians, and it would definitely take a lot of effort to be tamed so subserviently.

"Brother Su, have you ever heard of the very famous 'Sesame History Sage' in our Wu Kingdom?" Yuan Du pointed to the sedan chair and said, "The sedan chair is the grandson Ji Yu of the 'Sesame History Sage' Ji Wuchang, the half-saint is open-minded, and he is a fifteen-year-old boy like you, but he has already won the first place two years ago, and then went to the customs outside the country to experience two years before waiting for this government test." ”

"I haven't heard of the Sesame Sage, Brother Yuan, tell me quickly, why do you call this season Impermanence the Sesame Sage?" I can understand this Sage, he must be a cultivator of the historian's thoughts, but where does the word 'sesame' come from?" Su Lin asked Yuan Du suspiciously.

"The half-saint Ji Impermanence's cultivation is indeed the thought of a historian, but, Brother Su, have you ever known that this Ji Impermanence was originally just a rotten wood talent who opened his mind with the words of a man and was still a child in his thirties. ”

"Oh? With such qualifications, how could you become a half-saint later? Could it be that there are some adventures? Brother Yuan, don't sell it, come and make it clear to me. When Su Lin heard this, the children in their thirties who were enlightened and enlightened were finally able to cultivate to become half-saints, which made him interested.

"Here's the thing, Ji Wuchang was originally a loser in a businessman's family. His parents died early, and he was always a man of pleasure and hard work in his thirties, arrogant and complacent, greedy for fame. When he was a teenager, he was admitted to a child's examination, he was arrogant and complacent, did not want to forge ahead, his literary position and thinking have been stagnant, and all the solid industries in his family have been lost, and his family is surrounded by walls, and he almost can't afford to eat, but he ...... He likes to eat sesame seeds, and it just so happens that the sesame shop he frequents is used to wrapping sesame seeds in old pages that no one reads. ”

Yuan Duan said to Su Lin carefully, "It's the kind of 'Historical Records' printed by ordinary booksellers, not the pages of the Shengli book. Every time a packet of sesame seeds is sold, the owner of the sesame shop tears off a "Historical Records" package and gives it to the customer. This season of impermanence is a frequent visitor to the sesame shop, eating sesame seeds, when he is bored at home, he repeatedly reads the content and stories on these pages of "Historical Records", and the melons are ripe in the stomach, and he talks about people when he goes out on weekdays, and the opening is that the "Historical Records" has clouds, which seems to be very knowledgeable, and has also won some false fame......"

"Wrapping sesame seeds in the "Historical Records", the idea of the owner of this sesame shop is chic! Brother Yuan, you go on, should it be, this season of impermanence has directly become a saint from a child with these few pages of "Historical Records", right? Then I don't think I need to take any government exams, I will also buy a few packs of sesame seeds and go home to nibble on them......

Su Lin listened to it with relish, but he couldn't help but interject, and Su Ru beside him also said with a smile: "It's good to eat sesame seeds!" Brother, Ru'er will get you sesame paste to eat when she goes back!"

"Brother Su, it's not what you think. This season of impermanence relied on a few pages of content in the "Historical Records", and it didn't last long. After he told the story of "Historical Records", some people always asked him, what about next? Ji Wuchang couldn't answer, because he had read these pages of "Historical Records", and he didn't know the rest at all, so he ...... Ji Wuchang was naturally ridiculed, saying that he was 'Sesame Historical Records', but he knew that he dared to swagger through the market with half a claw......"

Yuan Duan said with a smile, "Ji Wuchang was naturally embarrassed and embarrassed by being ridiculed like this, so after going back, he swore that he would be proficient in the "Historical Records" and carefully study the thoughts of historians...... Within a year, he was admitted to Xiucai and Juren one after another, and then he was hit by the list, applied to enter the temple, and consulted the history books of countless temples and Hanlin Academy...... I visited the Tianren Continent again to proofread the history with field investigations...... In the end, it can be said that he achieved a semi-saint with the idea of seeking truth and pragmatism as a historian...... He is currently the most powerful historian and demi-saint in our Tianren Continent...... Because of the fun of 'Sesame History' when he was young, he was also called the 'Sesame History Saint'......"

"How can a person's strength reach such a degree? Let a child in his thirties who is enlightened and enlightened finally become a half-saint?"

In the first half of the story, Su Lin was still listening to it as a funny joke, and he was also laughing at the impermanence of the season that did not know how to pretend to understand, and showed off the only little bit of the "Historical Records" story. But when he heard the second half, Ji Wuchang was indignant and tried to be strong, and finally sanctified with the historian's idea of "seeking truth and pragmatism", which caused Su Lin to think deeply.

"This is indeed a world of ideas, a world of idealism. The sage Confucius once said to me that wherever the mind goes, it is omnipotent. As long as you have absolutely firm ideological strength and can work hard, even if you are a child like Ji Wuchang who is extremely poor and is in her thirties, will he not be able to become holy in the end?"

Listening to the story of this "Sesame Historical Sage", a wave of enlightenment rose in Su Lin's wisdom sea.
