Chapter 5 Ten years of sharpening the sword, the green ox out of the mountain
"Father, the child is only sixteen years old, and he is still young, and it is really a bit difficult for the child to go down the mountain." Yin Yi shirked.
Dang's father sighed, "I don't want to be a father." But this is your ancestor's suggestion to let you go down the mountain as soon as possible. Then he spread his hands out, indicating that he couldn't.
Yes, it's still the stubble of the one-armed old man in the back. Yin Yi didn't want to resist anymore, he knew how much his father listened to that old man's words, if he was still messing around here, it was estimated that he would be forced down the mountain by his father with a rope when he fell asleep tonight.
In desperation, Yin Yi could only come down and leave the inner hall after his father waved his hand.
Go outside. Touch the golden wind, and hear the sound of thousands of leaves. Such a good life, I'm afraid it's going to leave him. Thinking of this, Yin Yi shook his head.
……
South Mountain, Pulpit.
"Teacher, the matter has been done."
"Hmm."
Yin Wen got up, looked at the teacher, and felt a pain in his heart when he saw the teacher's empty left sleeve.
Ten years ago, at the cost of his left hand, the old man of Qingniu drew a barrier in front of Hangu, and no one could cross this place to enter and exit Hangu.
Ten years ago, that earth-shattering sword was bloodied. The other party was undiminished, and in the next few years, he sent troops to attack, but he was blocked outside the barrier and could not get close to Hangu for half a step.
"You tell Yi'er to let him come to my room tomorrow morning, take the rolled bamboo slip on the case, and take it in the direction of the school palace,"
"As for you, take this volume, and it says what I want you to do."
Yin Wen bent down and reached out to take the bamboo slip, nodding yes.
"You, go down first, old man, I'll rest here."
"The disciple retired."
Yin Wen bowed his hand and retreated from the pulp.
The old man got up and walked slowly to his cottage, letting the empty left sleeve flutter in the wind.
Pushed open the double doors of the cottage, walked inside, and then turned and closed.
Light up the candlestick, take out a roll of bamboo slips from the bamboo box on the side, and put it on the desk.
Turning around, I looked at the slightly simple furnishings in the house, which was a testimony of the old man who had lived here for ten years.
The wooden bed was not as delicate as it was when he was an official, but he slept comfortably. Those wooden shelves were filled with the classics that the old man had taken the time to write silently in the past ten years. On that desk, the old man recorded what the old man saw, heard and felt.
The old man didn't know at this time, even if he hadn't gone down the mountain for ten years, but under the mountain, his doctrine had not diminished back then, and it was constantly being extended and deepened.
When night fell, the old man walked out of the grass hut unusually, and walked down the mountain road with the faint moonlight......
Following.
"Family master, it's not good, the big green ox of the saint's ancestor is gone!"
The servant who took care of the stables hurried over, and reported to Yin Wenyu with a panicked face.
"Is there such a thing? Can you ask someone to look around? ”
The servant knelt down.
"O master of the house, I found out that something was wrong, so I immediately called someone to look around. But the big green ox, over the years, at sunrise in the sun on the mountain, after the sage ancestor had breakfast, he was ridden by the ancestor to tour the mountain,
"But this morning, when the old servant got up, the green cow was not on the top of the mountain, and I quickly woke up a few people to look around, and they didn't find half a stick of incense. I was afraid that someone saw that the big green cow was spiritual, and it was taken away. It was we who took poor care and walked away. Please punish the head of the family, and after the head of the family punishes me, I will go to the ancestors to make amends. ”
The servant kowtowed desperately, and even the servant behind him kowtowed.
Yin Wen was angry in his heart, and was about to scold, but suddenly recalled the meaning of farewell in the old man's words yesterday, calmed down, looked at the servants and said: "Get up, the teacher rode out on a green ox, this matter is not your fault." ”
The servants raised their heads and continued to kowtow: "The ancestors have all gone out, and we didn't even notice it, it's our fault, please punish the head of the family." ”
"It's all gone. You look very carefully, Yi'er and I are going down the mountain this morning, you prepare the carriage and horses, and when I come back in a while, remember to come to me to receive the reward. ”
Surprise was written on the faces of the servants, which turned to gratitude.
"Thank you, master, I'll wait until this is ready."
Yin Wen nodded, let the servants disperse, and after a while, he looked at a pillar a little farther away, and said loudly: "After standing for so long, aren't your legs sore, do you want to accompany your father to come and sit?" ”
A young man flashed out from behind the pillar, saluted in front of his father helplessly, and then said, "The master is gone. ”
"Hmm." Yin Wen nodded, "Did the ancestor let you bring the things you brought?" ”
"Bring it, a bundle of bamboo slips. Father, you said, do you want to open it and take a look? ”
"No! Although this thing was left to you by your ancestor, don't dismantle it if you don't tell you to dismantle it, let alone look at it! ”
"But if I don't take it apart, how do I know what the master wants me to do with it?"
"Your ancestor has already told me that you should take it in the direction of the Academy Palace."
Again! Can't you finish these things in one sitting? always shows off in front of his son in the name of his ancestor. Of course, it is impossible for Yin Yi to say such words, so he can only roll his eyes at this father in his heart.
"Okay, Yi'er! Now that you're ready, let's go. ”
"Yes."
