Zhang Shaofei learned from an elder who wore a Taoist robe and was born with fairy wind bones: this ancient temple is called Jiming Temple, it is one of the oldest Buddhist temples and royal temples in the local area, the incense has been vigorous, since ancient times, it has the reputation of "the first temple of the Southern Dynasties", Tianzhu monk Bodhidharma lived here when he came to Jiankang from India, and even Guan Yu "Guan Gong" this historical figure is quite related to the temple, and worships his idol in the temple.

The old man looked at him with emotion and told a little-known story—

In that year, Guan Yu carelessly lost Jingzhou, defeated Maicheng, and was captured and killed by Lu Mengsheng, the marshal of Eastern Wu, and presented his head to Cao Cao. Without a head, of course Guan Yu couldn't look at it, so the soul did not disperse for many years, and he became a lonely soul with no head and no owner. He often wandered around Wushu, whenever the wind was clear and the moon was white, in the dead of night, he would cry out sadly in the air: "Yet-I-head-come-" In this way, Guan Yu has been searching for hundreds of years, and no one can save him from his confusion.

The elder paused when he said this, and asked Zhang Shaofei: "Donor, just imagine, who can reinstall the head that has fallen to the ground?" ”

Zhang Shaofei shook his head and said, "It's difficult, it's difficult." ”

The elder bowed his head and said, "That's right. ”

Zhang Shaofei said with concern: "Master, what should I do if Guan Yu's head can't be reinstalled?" ”

The elder looked up at the sky for a moment and said, "On a moonlit night with few stars, Guan Yu's soul drifted to Jiming Temple. At that time, the founder of the Tiantai sect, Master Zhiyi, was meditating in the temple when he suddenly heard someone shouting in the air. He stepped out of the gate of the Jiming Temple and shouted into the air, 'Is it Yun Chang? Guan Yu's soul landed in front of him. Master Zhiyi said, 'The general has been roising the battlefield for 30 years and has killed countless enemies. You were killed by Lu Meng and shouted to return my head, so who did Yan Liang, Wen Chou, and those who were killed by you after you pass five levels and kill six people? Guan Yu suddenly realized that Ji Shou had taken refuge in Master Zhiyi. Since then, Guan Gong has become the protector of Buddhism. Jiming Mountain is a number of high monks, famous in Kyushu. ”

Perhaps, because of the attraction of this master's words, Zhang Shaofei, who was eager to return to his hometown to see his mother, involuntarily stepped into Jiming Mountain with his feet.

Zhang Shaofei did not go to the temple to place an order, but walked to the depths of the mountains behind the temple.

Under a high mountain peak, in a dense pine forest, there is actually a small grass hut.

Towering Jiming Mountain, dense bamboo forest, gathering the aura of heaven and earth flying in the mountain, auspicious clouds swirling;

The six gods are condensed, contemplating clearly, and the soul is full of joy and happiness, nourishing the quiet and quiet world of Zen.

Zhang Shaofei pushed the door in. The one who sat quietly in the grass house turned out to be the "fellow Taoist" who met in the midst of tribulation and became a confidant!

"Senior Brother......" Zhang Shaofei prostrate on the ground, crying silently - what kind of mood should a man in distress who has fallen to the end of the world, alone, and meet a friend in distress in the vast mountains and wilderness! All of this is in this shout......

Yiwu opened his eyes, looked at Zhang Shaofei in surprise, and said, "Oh my God! Senior brother, how did you come to Jiming Temple? ”

Zhang Shaofei knelt forward, threw himself on Yiwu's leg, choked up and said, "Senior brother, I'm ...... I want to go back to my hometown to visit my mother......"

Ichigo stroked his back and couldn't help but burst into tears.

After a long time, Zhang Shaofei stopped sobbing.

Ichigo wiped his tears for him and asked, "When did you leave Guanghuai?" ”

Zhang Shaofei choked up and said: "Not long after you left, one day, passing by the village next to Guanghuai Feiyan Rock, I heard someone crying loudly in the house, and curiosity drove me into the house to ask what was going on. It turned out that the son of Guanger in the village area was suffering from a fever, and I used mountain herbs to cure the old man's sick son, and Uncle Ah was very grateful to me and took out a few treasured bird's nests and gave them to me. At that time, I said that bird's nest was too precious to dare to accept it, saying that I was strong and didn't need to take this supplement. But the second uncle and his wife said that although bird's nest is precious, you can not eat this tonic, but the old people in your family can eat it, so I moved the idea of going home to visit my mother......"

"Hmm." Ichigo nodded his head while listening.

Zhang Shaofei looked at Yiwu affectionately, and after a while, he said: "Senior brother, it was the words of the second uncle and the couple that touched my longing for my family, my mother is old and frail, if she can eat this tonic should be of great benefit to her body, so under the hospitality of the second uncle and the two husbands, I had to accept these bird's nests, moved the idea of returning home, passed by the Jiming Temple and listened to the master's words, and came here involuntarily." ”

After listening to this, after praising Zhang Shaofei's filial piety, he said a little worriedly: "Senior brother, you go back...... Aren't you afraid that Guan Zhenjiang will send someone to chase after you? ”

Zhang Shaofei said his thoughts to Yiwu. After hearing this, he also felt that it was not unreasonable, and nodded yes.

"Oh, by the way, senior brother, I remember that after your unjust case was clarified, you decided to return to the north to promote Buddhism, how did you come here, it seems to be hidden?" Zhang Shaofei looked at Yiwu suspiciously.

"Alas, in general, the imperial court restricts Buddhism." Ichigo spread his hands helplessly.

"Why did the imperial court restrict Buddhism?" When Zhang Shaofei heard this, he looked at Yiwu in a little astonishment, and his eyes were as big as bull's eyes.

"Perhaps, if Buddhism is not restricted, the imperial court will ......be in danger," Yiwu said this, paused, looked up deeply at the starry sky outside the thatched house, and said, "Senior brother, as you know, there are three major religions in China, namely Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism, among them, Buddhism was introduced to China from India, and after a long period of spread and development, Chinese Buddhism was formed. During this period, Buddhism had its ups and downs several times, and was almost destroyed several times. ”

"What the senior brother said is not unreasonable. As far as I know, the local festivals did not obey the dispatch of the imperial court at all, and all attributed the reason to Buddhism, saying that they were influenced by Buddhism. This statement is really biased......" Zhang Shaofei said a little unevenly.

"What the junior brother said is not unreasonable. But the unjust descendants have their own comments, and it is rare for our brothers and sisters to meet again tonight, and it is quite fateful, so don't talk about these." Kazugo suggested a change of topic.

Zhang Shaofei said briskly: "Okay! Let's change the topic, just for this fate, our brothers and sisters will talk tonight, starting with Confucianism. ”

"Good!" "Confucianism, also known as Confucianism, Confucian and Mencian thoughts, is respected by Confucian scholars throughout the ages, founded by Confucius, born from the Zhou Dynasty ritual and music tradition, with benevolence, forgiveness, sincerity, filial piety as the core values, focusing on the moral cultivation of gentlemen, emphasizing benevolence and propriety complement each other, attaching importance to Wulun and family ethics, advocating education and benevolence, attacking tyranny, trying to rebuild the order of etiquette and music, changing customs, rich in the ideal of WTO entry and humanist spirit......"

After a bit of explanation, Zhang Shaofei nodded frequently and said yes.

It turns out that this Yiwu, whose surname is Zhang, is Wenkui, and his family background is illustrious, and he is one of the four major families in the Central Plains, just like Zhang Shaofei's family background. From the Three Kingdoms to the early Tang Dynasty, there were as many as ten prime ministers alone. His father Zhang Junbin, like most of his ancestors, learned and excelled, won fame, and became the prime minister. When Zhang Wenkui was six years old, his father invited Feng Xueru, the most famous local teacher, to be his teacher.

Feng Xueru practiced "Confucianism" and taught him that everything is inferior, only reading is high, the book has its own golden house, and the book has its own Yan Ruyu, teaching him the "national literature" classics of the hundred schools, and teaching him the "Book of Songs".

Feng Xueru is an old pedant, who knows astronomy, geography, both civil and military, not only highly respected, but also knows the warmth and coldness of the world and the hot and cold of the world.

Feng Xueru took the first class, and what he taught Xiao Wenkui was "Xunmeng Kindergarten Poems".

Feng Xueru wanted to know how Xiao Wenkui's comprehension was, and after reading it, he looked at Xiao Wenkui and said, "Wenkui, can you remember a few words?" ”

"I remember what Mr. just taught." Xiao Wenkui blinked his little eyes and said honestly.

"Oh? You say you remember? Feng Xueru looked at him as a student in a little consternation.

"Hmm." Xiao Wenkui nodded, which was an answer.

Feng Xueru slapped the shocked wood and said majestically: "Students are not allowed to lie in front of Mr.!" As soon as Feng Xueru spoke, he felt that his tone was heavier, so he changed his tone, "Since you remember everything, then you will try to memorize it once and listen to it for the teacher?" ”

Hearing what Mr. said this, Xiao Wenkui gave full play to his expertise of never forgetting and not forgetting after listening, imitating Feng Xueru's demeanor, suppressing, promoting, pausing, and frustrating, from beginning to end, he recited the "Xunmeng Kindergarten Poem" word for word:

The Son of Heaven is virtuous

The article teaches Ercao

Everything is inferior

Only reading is high

……

After Feng Xueru heard this, he was shocked. Unexpectedly, the child in front of him had such an amazing memory.

This is the core essence of Confucianism! Feng Xueru faintly felt that the little Wenkui in front of him would become a great weapon in the future.

……

In the dark, Zhang Shaofei and Yiwu reunited in Jiming Temple, enriching valuable theories and doctrines for the future re-emergence of the rivers and lakes to promote Buddhism and govern the Song Dynasty.

As he talked about the early hours of the morning, Kazugo seemed to hear someone calling to him. So, he slowly came back to his senses from the conversation and said to himself, "Brother Xian, it's dawn, you should also go." ”

Zhang Shaofei got up and straightened his clothes and bowed to Yiwu. Then he turned and left, and his figure melted into the vast mountains......
