Chapter 3: The Rise of the Wind and the Clouds, the Road to Immortality Section 199: The Unpredictable "Family"
"Teacher, have you been doing well all these years?" Li Chengjie listened to Kong Xueli talk about the troubles he had when he was a child, and he stopped sobbing and asked half-kneeling. There was sincerity in his eyes.
"The first emperor relied on me back then, and now His Majesty is benevolent and filial, and he is also very respectful and takes care of me. I guess it's a pretty good time. Kong Xueli said slowly.
"Teacher, can you tell me about my parents?" Li Chengjie said with a little pleading. His parents are very mysterious, so mysterious that their children don't know what they do, so mysterious that Li Chengjie doesn't even know where they are.
"It's not time yet. Kong Xueli shook his head, although he really couldn't bear to refuse Li Chengjie, but he had to refuse. The true identity of his parents, only they themselves are qualified to tell him.
"Why? I've grown up! Why, don't tell me yet!" Li Chengjie wanted to roar, but when he saw Kong Xueli, he lost his temper and asked sadly. is asking Kong Xueli, himself, and his parents.
"Soon, soon, soon you'll all know. You also need to become stronger. Kong Xueli patted Li Chengjie's hand and said. "When the power of a person is strong enough, he is qualified to involve the secrets of "immortals". You can't do it now..."
"Immortals, my parents are also looking for immortals?..." Li Chengjie looked at Kong Xueli with some puzzlement. But this time, Kong Xueli did not give him any response. "Another immortal word..."
"Cheng Jie, just now on the Shushan Road, how many words did you see in the last sentence?" Kong Xueli could only change the topic in order not to reveal flaws. Although blunt, fortunately Li Chengjie understands.
"Sixteen words!" Li Chengjie thought about it for a moment and replied stunned.
"Sixteen characters? Yes, is it two eights, or four fours?" asked Kong Xueli again.
"Four fours. Li Chengjie seemed to be a little dissatisfied and returned.
"Hahaha, okay, it's really a unicorn, haha!" Kong Xueli was very happy when he heard Li Chengjie's answer. This book is psychic, and the person who can resonate with it will offer words, and after Confucius Xueli's summary, it is found that the simpler and purer this is, the higher the qualification of the person vaguely represents. His laughter was also an attempt to lighten the atmosphere.
And these "four four-character ones are also extraordinary!" Kong Xueli was very pleased that their children had such talent. In other words, he was happy for his "grandson".
"Teacher, what about the book mountain road?" Li Chengjie was about to ask. was interrupted by Kong Xueli.
"Cheng Jie, you see, this is a few days ago, the official sent someone to me, and he wanted me to comment on it. You can help me take a look. Kong Xueli spoke. Picked up a scroll from the table and pulled the scroll so that it lay flat on the table.
Li Chengjie stretched his eyes and looked at it, and saw a poem written on the white rice paper, "I advise the Heavenly Father to be vigorous and reduce talents without sticking to one pattern." ”
"Is this a letter from His Majesty?" asked Li Chengjie. Looking at the words on the paper, if they are single and commendable, but if the words are turned into poems and arranged together, there is a poem that describes his calligraphy more appropriately. That is, "when viewed horizontally, the side of the ridge is a peak, and the distance and the height are different." ”
"I dare to write such an ugly word, and let me comment on it, I am afraid that he is the only one in the world who has the courage. I am really not afraid of being ashamed to death, the word written by the king of a country is really..."Kong Xueli looked at Li Chengjie's expression and laughed happily. Although he was disgusted in his words, Li Chengjie could hear that it was not really disgusting.
"The first emperor had two sons, and in terms of knowledge, the two of them can be said to be comparable, but
Whenever I talk about this calligraphy, hey, I can't read the words of Taoism. Although he is still practicing calligraphy diligently every day, he can't get the essence in the end, and it looks okay on a single basis, but if you look at it together, it's really a bit miserable. Kong Xueli looked at the words and became happy again.
"The first emperor has two sons?" Li Chengjie asked again in surprise. "Isn't the first emperor an only son? At this time, everyone in the world knows it! How could the first emperor have two children?" Li Chengjie instantly thought of the royal secrets, and he sighed deeply.
"Your parents didn't even tell you about it? They really reassured you. Kong Xueli said with a little dissatisfaction. He was dissatisfied with Li Chengjie's parents. He could understand their difficulties, but he couldn't agree with them.
"Oh, my family is so mysterious. Li Chengjie wanted to complain, but after thinking about it, he still let out a helpless sigh. He didn't dig deeper, he always felt that the teacher took out that pair of words just to tell him this "royal secret".
"This is true of my parents, this is true of my master, this is true of my younger brother, and the same is true of my teachers when I was young... You guys are really incomprehensible!" Li Chengjie looked at Kong Xueli and said with a bit of self-deprecation.
"The human heart is inherently unpredictable. You are not the only one in this world who has secrets. Kong Xueli listened to Li Chengjie's tone, looked at his "little grandson" and smiled again.
"Teacher, what you said about my secret, is he still a secret with you?" Li Chengjie thought of the master who seemed to know all the secrets of the world, and he let out a long sigh and asked this teacher.
"Ahem, what do you think?" Kong Xueli and Li Chengjie stayed together, and seemed to have become a little stubborn, and asked rhetorically with a bit of playfulness that did not match his age.
"Hey, teacher, does Your Majesty know my identity?" Li Chengjie's reunion with his "childhood" teacher really didn't have time to make him happy, and a bunch of things poured into his mind like a flood.
"I don't know!" Kong Xueli put away the word Immortal Daocheng and said casually. The expression is slightly unnatural.
"Oh!" Li Chengjie nodded. The indescribable answer was a bit of a surprise to him. Although he didn't know why he was asking this question, and he didn't know who he was, whether he wanted His Majesty to know or didn't want His Majesty to know...
"I don't know!" Kong Xueli looked at Li Chengjie's stunned young appearance, and he added. That sentence just now may cause Li Chengjie to have some kind of "misunderstanding"!
"Huh?" Li Chengjie looked at Kong Xueli, the older he gets, the more he can't understand the "teacher who loves him more than his parents" when he was a child.
"Well, you also have to study to become an official, and you need to be more diligent to be an official. Go to the inner courtyard to find a senior brother and ask them to take you to the library to study. Concentrate on your studies, and when you think you have figured it out, you're ready to go. Kong Xueli stood up and said slowly.
Li Chengjie hurriedly helped Kong Xueli to stand up. Helped Kong Xueli down the steps.
"Okay, students respect the teacher's life!" Li Chengjie walked in front of Kong Xueli, knelt down in front of Kong Xueli, and knocked three times seriously. This is the highest standard of the "junior ceremony".
Kong Xueli watched Li Chengjie kneel in front of him, he didn't dodge, but still enjoyed a little, looking at "that filial piety" child, he was very satisfied. He said, "Good boy, go quickly." One more word of advice for the teacher, for the official journey, remember, respectful, and courteous. Humility, joy also. Prudent, profitably. Fighting anger and harm. ”
"Student retire!" Li Chengjie got up and said goodbye to Kong Xueli. The inner courtyard of Hallym Temple
He also wanted to go to the library pavilion, and he really needed to find a place to meditate after going out. If the mind is not quiet, the mind cannot be understood, and the thinking cannot be reached, how can things be explained?
Li Chengjie respectfully withdrew, and in the school, when passing by the two stone tablets, Li Chengjie bowed down again and walked outside the courtyard.
......
"Alas!" Kong Xueli let out a sigh of annoyance after watching Li Chengjie leave.
"Teacher, how can you sigh like this? After Kong Xueli turned around, a figure appeared in front of him and bowed down to make a "junior salute" to him.
"You know, honesty and trustworthiness are the foundation of governance. At this time today, if he let that kid pierce it, I will be considered to have lost the face of the reader. Kong Xueli preached angrily.
"Yes, yes. Honesty and trustworthiness are the foundation of governance. But behind this, knowing oneself and self-discipline is the way to establish oneself. Allowing others to help others is the best way to live in the world. Teacher, let me help him today, and it is harmless and beneficial to him. Besides, that kid won't, Cheng Jie, I understand, he's a good boy. The person standing in front of Kong Xueli said eloquently, and then flatteringly walked over and stood behind Kong Xueli, helping him knead his shoulders and neck.
"Well, when it comes to Cheng Jie, this kid is really not bad. Good moral character, knowledgeable, dignified appearance, outstanding demeanor. Kong Xueli thought about Li Chengjie's appearance just now, and he was very satisfied.
"Teacher, I haven't seen you for a long time, but you want the fish that the student cooked?" asked the man behind Kong Xueli with a happy smile. He knew that Kong Xueli was already desireless at this age, and if he said anything, it was still worth his nostalgia or pursuit. That may be left, his exclusive "secret" boiled fish.
When Kong Xueli heard his student tempting him with his specialty of "boiling fish" again, he suddenly turned around angrily and kicked the student. Then he scolded with a smile and said, "I know that the old man likes to drink the fish soup you cooked, and I don't know how often I come back to cook a few pots for the old man over the years!"
"Yes, yes, it's all the student's fault. When the students come back this time, if they don't ascend to the immortals, they will never leave Beijing again. In the future, there will be time to honor your old man. The man said freely. In fact, he is not young anymore.
However, in front of Kong Xueli, he always regarded himself as the junior who could be "spoiled and naughty".
"If the immortal can find it, you will go to it. It doesn't matter if you can't ask for it. Kong Xueli looked at this student of his. Thinking that he was still a masculine young man when he left Beijing, and now that he has returned, he is also a little bit of "no longer youthful" twilight.
"The establishment of the Immortal Dynasty is a matter for the whole world. Why do you have to fight on your shoulders alone!" Kong Xueli looked at the tiredness buried under Immortal Daolin's expression, and felt very sorry for him in his heart.
"Heroic boy, just for an immortal. bound the first half of his life, and the rest of his life, he may also be stumped by that immortal word..."
"This is my mission. It's okay, teacher, youth is at the right time, you should work hard!" Xian Daolin said with a smile. In fact, he was really on the threshold of immortals, and he could feel that he was only one step away.
There is only one step left to "ascend to the immortal"!
But that step does seem to be "one step away"! But when he really took a step, he felt that it was a chasm, a "step" that could not be completed in a full life...
"Teacher, let's go, call Daocheng, Meng Lang. Today I will personally cook for you and cook fish for you. We eat meat, and the teacher drinks soup!hahaha!" "Xian Daolin pushed Kong Xueli from behind, trotted out of the academy directly, and then one took off, and they disappeared together in the Hanlin Academy...
