Young Lang Chapter 20 Ambition
There was a sound of footsteps at an even speed from the courtyard gate, and Li Zan walked from the living room to the room where Li Qu's illness was, and a breeze rolled up his robe.
The room where Li Qu was sick was not too big, it was both a bedroom and a study.
When Mr. Liu is not teaching at the private school, Li Quzhi often sits alone at the desk in the room and reads quietly.
Mr. Zhang once said: "Read first-class books, be second-class people, enjoy third-class blessings; ”
At this time, Li Qu was ill, and he was sitting alone in the room, reading the three books left by Mr. Zhang, and a wave of book flipping around the handsome young man.
Flip the book and flip the book slowly.
Li went to the sick and studied slowly.
At this time, Li Zan would sit quietly at the door, in a peaceful mood. Li Zan has read sage books all his life and made friends with a large number of readers, except for Mr. Zhang, he has never seen anyone else have a style of turning books around his sleeves.
On the title page of the book, there is a line of words: "There are sage words, people's hearts are downward, tomorrow's situation is probably not as good as today, and the day after tomorrow is mostly not as good as tomorrow, and so on, and the situation is getting worse every day." I hope that through the efforts of my generation, the situation of tomorrow will be slightly better than today, and the situation of the day after tomorrow will be slightly better than tomorrow, and so on, every day."
When Li Quzhi saw this, he didn't leave his eyes for a long time, and the flipping style turned out to be very well-behaved, and he didn't move.
Is it worth it?
As the old saying goes, people eat soil for a lifetime, and soil eats people once. When a person lives for a lifetime, he will 'close his eyes and open his eyes', and finally close his eyes and open his eyes again, which may be the matter of the next life.
The pages of the book are turned over in the wind, and the time passes little by little.
Li Quzhi slowly read out loudly: "Respect the elderly, so it grows long, the lone and weak, so the young and the young, the holy, its virtue, the virtuous, its beauty." All the tired, disabled, lonely, and widowed in the world are all those who are connected by my brothers and have no complaints. ......。 Wealth and blessing will be the life of Houwu; Save, I'm obedient, no, I'd rather also. ”
One picture after another came into Li Quai's mind:
An old Confucian student is sitting in a precarious position, holding a lake pen, as if he is scrutinizing the text, suddenly there is a sound of fighting around, it is difficult to leave a calm desk in the noise, the old Confucian slowly put away the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and passed away quietly.
The two armies faced each other, the yellow sand was thousands of miles, the golden iron horse, there was a war horse that fell to the ground and pressed a lifeless armored general, there were soldiers with all their limbs broken and clinging to the flagpole, and an old Confucian floated in, fighting for the jade silk, life and death.
An old woman, pounding clothes by the gurgling stream, heard a voice in the distance, "Mother, I'm back", looked sideways, and burst into tears. A young man who used to be wearing armor, now wearing a cotton shirt, walked over with vigor and fell to his knees.
Two or two childish children, riding a bamboo horse around the green plum chase and play, suddenly saw a middle-aged man asking for directions, smiled and asked: "Sir, where are you from, where are you going?" Suddenly, I heard a middle-aged woman's voice hurriedly say: "Call Daddy, call Daddy, call Daddy", and then the woman's cry came.
......
Li Quzhi was sitting precariously with a blurred gaze.
Li Zan twisted his beard and nodded incessantly, his grandson has the atmosphere that a scholar should have.
Before Mr. Zhang left, Li Zan went to visit Mr. Zhang.
Li Zan once asked Mr. Zhang a question, should a scholar do something within his power for the world while preserving himself, or should he sacrifice his life for righteousness and kill himself?
Mr. Zhang replied with a smile: "It's not enough."
At that time, Li Zan raised his head, looked at Mr. Zhang, the old Confucian in a green shirt, and muttered: "The same scholar, the gap is huge." ”
Probably feeling the arrival of his grandfather, Li Quzhi turned his head and said hello to Li Zan.
Li Zan said, "Twelve, go out for a walk?"
Li Quzhi nodded.
The wind and rain outside the courtyard seem to have never stopped, from dawn to dark, and from dark to dawn.
The spring rain is always ruthless, annoying and happy.
An old man and a young man each held an umbrella and walked in an alley.
Li Quzhi is still sitting and sitting on piles to practice qi, and walking is also walking to practice qi.
Li Zan asked, "Do you think the Great Song Dynasty is better, or the Great Jin Dynasty is better?"
Zhan Buzhou in the south, bounded by Qizhou, there are many barbarians in the north, and all are indoctrinated in the south. Since ancient times, the southerners have looked down on the northerners, even if they are the powerful writers of the Dajin Dynasty in the north, and in the face of the weak scholars of the Dasong Dynasty in the south, they must consider themselves dwarves.
Li Quzhi replied: "Although Dasong is an old country, it is the same culture as us, and it is connected by blood and water; although Dajin is a new country, it is not my race, and its heart will be different." But now, the war has just ended, and the people are living in peace and work, and living comfortably, so I don't know who is good?"
Li Zan smiled and said: "Twelve, you see, people think differently, some people are bent on recovering Dasong and expelling Dajin; some people are bent on protecting Dajin and laying an immortal foundation; some people are bent on provoking war and achieving fame and hegemony; some people are bent on quelling the war and letting the people live and work in peace and contentment; some people enter the world in troubled times to save the world, rule the world and escape the world; and ....... All of these have different angles and different starting points. ”
Li Quzhi asked, "Then grandpa, what should I think?"
Li Zan smiled: "Don't think about anything, the water will come out naturally." ”
After a while, heavy rain poured down, lightning and thunder.
The two walked slowly to the stone bridge and saw a monk sitting alone in the heavy rain, with an umbrella next to the monk.
Li Quzhi walked over slowly, put the umbrella on top of the monk's head, and the monk suddenly opened his eyes.
The monk bent his fingers and gently knocked three times, like spring thunder resounding in the rain, like a wooden fish resounding through the universe.
Li Zan retracted his gaze and said to the monk, as if to the river: "People, you still have to know how to be flexible, otherwise you will be very tired, and the people around you will also feel very tired." What's more, maybe in the end, you are the only one around, and there is no one. Looking up, it's white, why bother......"
The monk seemed to be muttering to himself: "King Jizo Bodhisattva has made a grand vow that hell will not be empty, he will not become a Buddha, and all sentient beings will be exhausted, so that Bodhi will be proven!" King Jizo Bodhisattva has been staying in the boundless hell, and only Di Ting has accompanied him, listening to the suffering of the mortal world and watching the suffering of hell in the endless years!"
Li Zan also said to himself: "The Buddha said: If I don't go to hell, who will go to hell?" So he cut the flesh and fed it to the eagle, and finally achieved positive results, cultivated the supreme golden body, and used the immeasurable merits of achieving positive results to illuminate all things in the world and lead the prosperity of Buddhism in the world. His path is not alone, because there are many followers and everyone aspires to it. ”
The monk's face was expressionless, and he bowed his head and sang: "What is the right fruit? King Jizo Bodhisattva does not need the so-called positive fruit, and it is enough to have the truth that understands him by his side, and it is enough, it is enough, it is enough. ”
Li Zan took Li Quai's hand and left slowly, muttering in his mouth: "The Bodhisattva is too bitter, it makes people desperate!"
A voice sounded not far away: "Although the Bodhisattva is suffering, he is not desperate!"
"The avenue is muddy and rugged!"
"The avenue is muddy, I walk alone!"
Li Zan's heart swelled with happiness, but the monk's heart was like water.
Before that, this morning.
Li Zan sat in the room, considering whether to meet the monk or the Taoist priest.
Outside the house, there was a breeze blowing the wind chimes under the eaves for no reason, the old man listened carefully to the wind chimes, and then silently told himself in his heart, "If the wind chimes are even, see the monk, if the wind chimes are odd, see the Taoist." ”
Ding dong. Ding dong. Ding dong. Ding Ding Dong.
After the ninth, there was no sound.
So the old man took the boy to the bridge by the river.
Earlier, last night.
The old man counted the various immortals in the town, there were many forces, and the situation was delicate.
The old man couldn't help but think of the younger brother who was stronger than himself in planning, stronger in cultivation than himself, and stronger than himself in everything, the second grandfather of Li Quai, how good it would be if he was still there.
But there is no if, and Li Quai's generation is only one, two, six and twelve. In the previous generation, there were originally three people, and no one remained.
The building will fall, and it will be difficult to support it alone.
A loved one has passed away, and he is sad.
On the way back, when I arrived near the Fenglailou Inn, a black shadow suddenly came out, it turned out to be a yellow dog, Li Quzhi was startled, but he stood in front of his grandfather.
followed by a voice "Wangcai, don't be scared!!"
Immediately afterward, a teenager walked out, sleepy-eyed, as if he had just woken up. The boy was the boy who had been sleeping while listening to the book yesterday.
The yellow dog circled around the boy affectionately, and the boy said to Li Zan and Li Quai: "Grandpa, I'm sorry, I scared you just now." But strange to say, Wangcai has been with me for more than ten years, and he has never been like this......"
Li Zan smiled and said, "It's okay, young man, I'm old and I've seen a lot, so I can't be scared." By the way, young man, what's your name. ”
The young man bent down and rubbed the yellow dog's head, got up and said, "Grandpa, my surname is Lu, my surname is Lu, my name is Tianliang, and the 'Tianliang' who lost his conscience." ”
Hearing this, Li Quai's heart was happy for a while, eighty percent of this child was picked up, and it was too casual to get this name.
The young man smiled and said to Li Quzhi, "Little brother, what's your name?"
Li Quzhi said: "My name is Li Quai, Li Taibai's 'Li', Huo Qu's 'go', Huo Qu's 'disease'. ”
The young man smiled: "What a good name, like a ranger and a general; ”
Li Quzhi said: "Your name is also very good, the boy of the Lu family, representing the conscience of heaven and earth." ”
The boy grinned, overjoyed.
The young man bent down, touched Wangcai's head, and said, "Your statement, uh, good, really good, excellent." ”
After speaking, there were two breezes around the young man, one male and one female, starting from the end of the micro, the male wind was like thunder, the momentum was great, and the female wind was like a spring breeze, moisturizing things silently. Suddenly, the rain curtain around the boy flew upside down, and the yellow dog obediently lay on the ground.
Li Zan raised his hand and waved his sleeve gently, and the rain condensed into a cloud, covering the young man.
A sloppy old man flashed in, nodded to the two of them in thanks, and then nodded five times towards the surroundings, five different directions, and temporarily constructed a five-element formation.
The young man surnamed Lu Mingtianliang turned out to be a broken mirror to the second realm.
It turned out that the boy was a little entangled in his name, on the one hand, he felt that his name was very good and interesting, and on the other hand, he also felt that the meaning was not very good. Li Qubing said this, which just broke the knot in the young man's heart, so the young man broke through the situation.
Lu Tianliang's grandfather, the old man, as the head of a sect, read thousands of books, traveled thousands of miles, and saw countless people.
There is a Buddhist walker holding a purple gold bowl in his hand, walking barefoot with a cane in Bianjing City, where the blood is flowing like a river, singing the Buddha's horn and breaking the mirror.
There is a talisman with a lotus crown on his head, in the mass grave, lighting the talisman of the dead, leading a path of detachment for the lonely souls and wild ghosts.
There are scholars from the former dynasty who do not want to go out, take the Mengxue boy, climb the heights and make endowments, facing the country's dilapidated mountains and rivers, the city is deep in spring, and the old tears are broken in the mirror.
There were generals wearing heavy armor and riding horses, who were scattered by the enemy in their own formation, and in the deep encirclement of the battlefield, watching the death and wounding of the brothers around him, he vowed to lead the brothers out of the siege and roar to the sky and break the mirror.
Seeing the situation in front of him, Lu An could only say that he had seen a broken mirror, but he had never seen such a broken mirror.
Some people do things, even if they do it casually, to make the world a better place......
Lu An arched his hand at Li Zan and Li Quai: "Great grace is not grateful. ”
Li Quzhi suddenly said: "Grandpa, no matter how you look at it, you look like a master. ”
The old man was stunned for a moment, then laughed, and patted his stomach with his palm, "No, it's not tall, but it's a lot of knowledge." ”
Lu An took Lu Tianliang and the yellow dog back to Fenglai Tower, settled Lu Tianliang, and let him recuperate and stabilize the realm.
Lu An himself sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, held a book in one hand, and flipped through the book in the other, and a picture in the book slowly flashed in front of him.
When the moon is in the sky, the stars are brilliant, and the old man takes a small boat, as if passing through a narrow hole, which is very narrow at first, getting wider and wider, and then suddenly bright, as if sailing out of the small water bay and sailing into Yunmengze.
Yun Mengze was exceptionally calm, the boat did not shake at all, and the people and the boat bathed in the quiet moonlight.
Not long after, the old man came by boat to a stone wall with ancient characters carved on the stele.
There are definitely no more people in the world who know such ancient characters than their hands, but the old man is a first-class family in this regard, or the rivers and lakes give him the nickname "Lu An's belly, grocery store".
After the old man finished reading, his heart was shocked, a lantern slowly rose from the bottom of the boat, and the surroundings of the boat suddenly shone in four colors, and under the ancient stone tablet suppressed a monster with a red body, straight eyes, a human face and a snake body, and a sleeping monster, but it seems that it should not be the monster itself, but like a soul of the monster.
Even if the old man has seen the spring glory and autumn withering countless times, his heart is still turbulent at that moment, because this kind of monster old man happened to have seen it in a strange book, which recorded: "In the north of Chishui, there is Zhangwei Mountain, there is a god on the mountain, a human face and a snake body, its eyes are obscure, and its vision is clear."
The old man retracted his gaze, his mood was complicated, his lips trembled, he sighed slightly, and muttered, "What a big deal." ”
(PS: As of this chapter, the preliminary layout of the first volume has been basically completed, and it will soon enter the climax, and the first volume is expected to have forty more chapters, and the result may surprise everyone.) Let's wait and see...... )
