Chapter 168: There is no snow in the city outside the river

"Creation?" Li Mu didn't know what the creation in Gu Shuanghua's mouth was, he just knew that he seemed to be trapped here. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info he glanced at Gu Shuanghua and sat down in another chair.

Gu Shuanghua looked at his resigned appearance and said to him: "Someone will come to settle you in a while, you can read here first." With that, he stood up, got up, and walked out.

Li Mu heard the sound of the door closing, and quickly stood up and walked to the door. He leaned against the door and listened for a while, and when he noticed that there was no movement outside, he held the handle. He pushed hard, and found that the door was not moving.

Li Muyun rose vigorously, even if he used his true qi, there was nothing he could do. "The door won't open. Li Mu had to accept this fact. He walked to the quartz window again, and outside the window was flowing water, and Li Mu could still see the aquatic plants in the water. Li Mu stretched out his hand, ready to smash a punch, but suddenly thought that there were so many books stored here, if they were blistered, I was afraid that he would be killed here by Gu Shuanghua without waiting for any experiment.

Thinking of this, Li Mu withdrew his fist little by little. He settled down and wandered around the cellar. This library is not very large, but it has a large collection of books. Li Mu thought back to Mr. Su's paintings, where Mr. Su also had a book cellar. However, the collection of books in that cellar is far less than here.

Li Mu casually picked up a book called "Ode to the Eastern Emperor" from the bookshelf, turned the first page, and the opening chapter was "Taiyi Star Name, the God of Heaven, the word is in Chudong, in order to match the Eastern Emperor, so it is called the Eastern Emperor." Li Mu put it back and took another one from the bookshelf on the side. This book is called "Xuanyuan Three Treatises" Li Mu slightly skimmed, and it seems to be a Taoist classic.

Li Mu thought about it, returned to his seat, and looked at the five books that Gu Shuanghua had picked out before. The first book is the "Theory of Fate and Soul" that Gu Shuanghua threw to him as soon as he came. "What is the explanation of reading? However, since you can't get out here, you can only read books. Li Mu sighed in his heart and opened the book. For reading, he is calm. This is also the reason why he can always be praised by Mr. Su.

But this one, the beginning made Li Mu difficult.

"There is a saying in "Seven Signatures of the Cloud Pipe", the three souls, one is called fetal light, the second is called cool spirit, and the third is called ghost. There are seven categories, each with its own name. The first is called the corpse dog, the second is called Fuya, the third is called Birdyin, the fourth is called the thief, the fifth is non-poisonous, the sixth is called defilement, and the seventh is called stinky lung. However, when people gather these three souls and seven spirits, they are souls. People look up to the essence of heaven and earth, receive the qi of yin and yang, and are born into the world. The soul is the foundation of man, and the spirit is the expression of qi. The name is the soul, but in fact it is the soul of life. ”

The names of the three souls and seven spirits in the introduction at the beginning made Li Mu feel a little headache. And the words of the author later seem to negate this statement.

Li Mu continued to look down.

"Those who live souls, the soul lives and lives. When people exist, their souls live, and when they die, their souls perish. Therefore, the soul is the life of man. ”

Seeing this, Li Mu scratched his head with some doubts, could it be that this book is about the soul? Li Mu has heard a lot of this kind of ghost and god theory. What kind of unjust soul possesses and asks for life, and the charming soul throws himself into repaying the favor or something. Those are wonderful stories from the mouth of the storyteller. This book, on the other hand, delves into the relationship between man and soul.

Looking at it, Li Mu somewhat understood the author's argument. This book denies that people have three souls and seven spirits, and instead proposes that people have only one soul. That is, the soul of life. The soul is born because of the birth of a person, and dies with the death of a person. And the Seven Spirits are just different outward manifestations of the life soul to people. This is equivalent to various parts of the human personality.

The book "Theory of Life and Soul" is not too thick, and Li Mu took half an hour to read the whole book. Then, Li Mu picked up the second book of "Three Corpses Sutra". Looking at the name, Li Mu thought it was a related book. But after opening it, I found that it was preaching the three corpse gods.

Although Li Mu has a good relationship with Yisang Taoist and has also learned mixed yuan qigong from him, Li Mu does not know much about what Taoism has learned. So Li Mu looked down. This book is a scripture compiled by a Taoist named Taixuan, mainly about what the three corpses are and how to cut them off.

The original text of the book reads: "The life of a human being is also parasitic to the twins of his parents and mothers, and he is full of the essence of the five grains. On the day of Gengshen, he often sued the Emperor of Heaven to record the crimes of people, and recorded them in the slightest, wanting to kill people, reduce people's lives, and make people die quickly. After death, the soul rises to the sky, and the spirit enters it, only three corpses wander away, and the name is called a ghost. Four hours and eight festivals to make their sacrifices, the sacrifices are not refined, that is, for disasters, all diseases compete, and kill people's lives. (Note 1)"

Li Mu's understanding of this book is completely inferior to the previous book "Theory of Fate and Soul". Because that book is the words of one person, and it is mainly about what he wants to preach. So it's quite easy to read. And this "Three Corpses Sutra" is completely different. There are many Taoist words and classics in this, Li Mu has never been exposed to these things, and it is naturally very difficult to read.

Li Mu read it for a long time and put down the book again. He stretched and stood up to move. There is a permanent lamp burning in this cellar, and the light is always abundant. But maintaining a sedentary posture and staring at the book all the time made Li Mu a little tired. A feeling of hunger in his belly told him that it was close to noon.

Li Mu hadn't drunk water for half a day, and he was already hungry and thirsty. He thought for a moment, walked to the door, tapped on the door, and shouted outside, "Is there anyone?"

No one outside answered.

Li Mu was a little helpless, Gu Shuanghua locked him here, saying that it was to let him read, but how did he think that Gu Shuanghua wanted to trap himself here. Li Mu sat back in his seat and skimmed through the other three books. These three books also deal with Taoist learning. It looks like it's hard to read for a while.

But at this moment, the door suddenly opened.

Li Mu immediately raised his eyes and saw a slender figure appear outside the door. It was a woman, even though she was wearing loose clothes, but just by the outline of light and shadow, Li Mu could know that the figure of the woman in front of her was perfect to the extreme.

The woman walked in with a plan, and she had a veil covering her face, which seemed to cover her face, but she didn't know that there was a hint of mystery in this haze. She just came, a vague fragrance, like an orchid and musk, and it also permeated in this book cellar.

In the room full of the smell of books and ink, Li Mu felt a fresh breath because of her arrival. She walked up to Li Mu and put the case in her hand on the desk. Inside is a bowl of rice and three side dishes. Next to the meal, there was also a teapot and teacup.

"Thank you. Li Mu thanked him, and hurriedly grabbed the teapot and teacup and poured himself a glass of water. The fragrance of tea lingered, and the woman looked at Li Mu and asked, "What's your name?" ”

Li Mu remembered his current identity, and replied with drooping eyelids: "The little monk doesn't understand. ”

"Do you understand, are you a monk, which temple is a monk?" the woman continued.

Li Mu listened to her soft voice and said honestly: "King Kong Temple." ”

"Oh~ disciples of Kongo Temple. The woman had a feeling of sudden realization, and she smiled: "I thought that who was able to stay in Dean Gu's cellar before. Moreover, Dean Gu even asked me to urge this person to study. The woman smiled, her veil flickering.

Li Mu hadn't looked at her before, and when he heard Gu Shuanghua explain that this woman came to urge him, he couldn't help but look up at her curiously. At this glance, he was stunned.

The woman in front of her pulled her hair into a cross bun, her hair was black and shiny, and the sides of the mustache hung down to her shoulders. The smooth forehead is worthy of the fullness of the heavenly court, and a pair of thin curved eyebrows are carefully drawn with a dai green eyebrow pencil, outlining a trace of delicate but not charming style. Her eyebrows are delicate, but her eyes are as clear as water, clear and gentle.

This is indeed a gentle woman. Even if she covers her face with a light veil and does not show her true face, that graceful demeanor cannot be hidden.

Li Mu was shocked by the charm of the woman in front of him. However, Li Mu didn't see a beauty and couldn't walk, he was amazed at first sight, but at second sight, he was puzzled.

Because he suddenly felt that the woman in front of him was a little familiar.

If Yi Fan was by his side at this time, he would definitely laugh at Li Mu. When you see a beautiful woman, you tell people that you are familiar, which is a very tasteless and boring conversation. And Li Mu didn't have such a thought, he just simply felt that he should have seen this woman, this figure, and this figure.

So Li Mu asked, "I haven't asked the female benefactor for her name yet." ”

The woman smiled: "My name is Jiang Chengxue." ”

"Jiang Chengxue?" Li Mu repeated softly. This can actually be regarded as a habit of Li Mu. This habit is not good, because if you whisper something after someone has introduced you, it will make people think that you are not listening at all.

However, Jiang Chengxue thought that he didn't hear clearly, so he said: "There is no snow in the city outside the river, and I still ask when Chunshan will return." That's where my name comes from. ”

Li Mu hurriedly said: "It's really a good mood." ”

"It seems to understand but not understand, understand or not, your generation of King Kong Temple understands words, there is a lot of mystery. Who gave you this name?Abbot Linguang?" Jiang Chengxue asked.

Li Mu nodded.

Jiang Chengxue pointed to the food on the table and said, "You can eat some first." Came in a hurry, only these dishes. But I didn't know you were a monk before, so I'd better take this meat for you. As she spoke, Jiang Chengxue stretched out her hand and took out the only plate of meat slices among the three side dishes.

Li Mu secretly complained to himself, but he did a good job, and he couldn't jump out and say that I want to eat meat. So he picked up the dishes and chopsticks, he tasted a bite of rice, and then suddenly asked, "Has the female benefactor eaten?"

Jiang Chengxue nodded.

Li Mu ignored her and ate the vegetables.
