Chapter 9: Conversion to the Sect, Past and After
Green mountains, thousand-year-old temples.
In this dignified and quiet hall, several monks clasped their hands together and closed their eyes and muttered.
A beautiful and handsome young talent, kneeling in front of the Buddha, his face is not happy or sad, not angry or tired.
A thin-eyed old monk plucked the prayer beads, his lips moved, and he said for a long time: "Donor, is everything dusty?"
The man clasped his hands together, closed his eyes as if he were there, and opened his thin lips lightly: "The disciple's front edge is over, and he will not enter the red dust again." ”
The old monk held the razor, took off the young Confucian crown, cut off the green silk, and the black hair slowly fell.
The young man remained unmoved, until the green silk was shaved away.
The lonely and proud eyes opened slightly, the black eyes like an abyss were empty, and the thin eyebrows were slightly upturned, complementing the corners of the eyes, and it became more and more difficult to guess him.
is originally a handsome and beautiful man, although the green silk is broken, it can't affect his handsomeness. The slender figure contrasted with the gray monk's robes, and the white jade flawless face was even more cold, and there was no smile to be seen.
If an ordinary female guest sees it, I am afraid that I will complain that my Buddha has accepted such a beautiful man, and I have lost a good husband.
The bell rings 100 orders and 8 times every morning, but it is the south, south, west, and north, the realm of desire, the realm of color, and the realm of colorlessness, and the sufferings of the three poisons, greed, hatred, and ignorance suffered in the past, present, and future, totaling 100 orders and 8 times.
There are a total of one hundred and eight troubles in life, and this bell ringing is for the sake of this suffering.
The old monk handed the sandalwood rosary in his hand to the young man, and heard and recited it in the future: "The bell is heard, the troubles are light, the wisdom is long, the Bodhi is born, from hell, out of the fire kang, willing to become a Buddha, save all sentient beings." “
The man memorized these words and took them with both hands: "May I get rid of the sea of suffering, Amitabha." ”
In the middle of the night, the night breeze blows through this large courtyard, blowing the shadows of the trees. The echo of the cloister in the house.
The Qiong hook on the horizon is not there, but the stars are dazzling. A handsome young man took a break with his sword. "This Rausch swordsmanship is also very difficult to practice. "In terms of complaints.
The swarthy young man standing on the side was naked, and the rain was falling on his body, and he didn't expect that the swordsmanship that this kid found looked very simple, but the nine styles were so difficult to practice by himself.
Daddy's palm technique is extremely strong, but he can't urge this sword technique, it seems that something is missing.
The handsome young man naturally didn't know as much as him, so he rested for a while, raised his sword and attacked again. The same move, the same starting move, the same change of move, are also blocked by the opponent.
The handsome young man opened his mouth and said, "Break, you can't do it, now you can only block it, but you can't kill me anymore." ”
The swarthy young man didn't speak, and the next sword touched.
Pushed out with one palm, blasting the handsome boy out a few feet.
He couldn't hold it anymore and fainted. Day and night, this will be the case. The two fought against each other with swordsmanship, and the swords and swords were endless.
If you talk about this "Emperor's Sword", it is a long-lost swordsmanship, which is covered with nine styles: degree, Mo, Ming, class, long, Jun, Shun, Bi, and Wen. In contrast, it is the nine qualities advocated by the sages.
"The heart can control the righteousness, the virtue should be and the Mo, according to the Quartet Ming, diligent and selfless, tireless teaching, reward and punish the king, mercy and obedience are said to be obedient, choose the good and follow the comparison, the longitude and latitude of heaven and earth. It encompasses all the human virtues advocated by Confucianism, and reproaches the king for seeking perfection like this.
The world under the politics of "nine virtues" is the ideal society that Confucianism dreams of. Those who can practice the nine virtues will ascend to the emperor's pole, so it is called "Emperor's Sword".
These two people only know the sword style, but they don't know the theory of the nine virtues.
The emperor of the Dajing Dynasty was originally born as a valve who practiced martial arts for generations, and he has always used martial arts to calm the world and pass on the country for more than ten generations.
The first Emperor Shizong Wu insisted on being sharp, took the lead, seized the land of Longyun, and killed the alien race for a hundred years and could not go south. A body of civil and martial arts, there is no shortage of beautiful words from historians throughout the ages. Since then, the successive dynasties have been recuperating and recuperating, and they do not move lightly, so the martial arts have withered.
Now the emperor was sick when he was young, his body foundation was weak, and he could no longer practice martial arts, and he practiced Confucianism more.
I'm afraid I haven't turned over this "Imperial Sword". Suddenly turned out this swordsmanship, no one can teach it, and there is no master finger to teach it, only these two people practice.
Yun Chuan recuperated for more than ten days, and finally was able to walk like a fly, except for the palm that had been bitten by the poisonous snake, there was still a faint pain.
It was a bright morning, and the old man was still sleeping on that crooked neck with a straight face.
Yun Chuan looked at him for a while and didn't open his eyes, and shouted: "Stinky old man, have you woken up, the sun is about to set." The plan of the day lies in the morning, and if you don't study today, how many days do you want to delay me?"
The old man was on the leaves, his eyes slightly open: "What do you want to learn, you boy? "I didn't say anything.
Yun Chuan saw the old man scolding himself, so he said, "You have to teach, if you don't teach me, you will leave." "The kid is so angry, are you so rude to Ruhai's sour Confucian?"
The old man's brows furrowed slightly. "The name of the family teacher is not something that you can call an old man, I am afraid that you are less than one-tenth of him. ”
This eight-year-old child has sharp teeth, and the old man who said it is angry. "Since you say you want to learn, then you learn to jump the tree first, if you can jump to this crooked neck tree in one breath. I'll teach you how to fly over mountains and forests. ”
Yunchuan Xing's eyes moved slightly, and he said: "Okay, you come down quickly, wait for me to jump up, it's not good to kick you down." ”
Yun Chuan tried to jump, and found that every time he was not more than a foot high, even if he ran and borrowed strength, it was only a foot and a half. And the nine-foot-tall crooked-necked tree looks like the edge of the sky. At that moment, he said, "No, no, this is too high, I am still too young to jump so high." ”
"Muddy boy, but a few times I know I can't do it, look at me. The old man's toes were slightly on tiptoe, and his body was like a flying hong, and he flew obliquely, swept to the tree, like a bird returning to its nest.
Yun Chuan's eyes were full of stars.
If you can't fly, you can climb up.
When Yun Chuan heard this, he hurriedly climbed the tree. Standing together in the branches.
The old man got up again and flew to the thatched roof, but instead of standing on a supporting pillar, he stood upright on the thatch. It was as if it was floating.
Seeing that it was so easy, Yun Chuan also learned to jump over and fell into a dog and ate.
The old man laughed and said, "You are much better than that sour man, he had climbed for several days to learn to climb this crooked neck tree, but he didn't dare to think that you would throw himself on the ground like this." Laughing more than looking at Yun Chuan, he flew down.
"Then I jumped three thousand times a day, and then I jumped down from the tree a thousand times.
After three years, you can go up to the branches and the roof. As for how to stand, I'll teach you again. Yun Chuan muttered: "I have studied reading and writing, but I have been able to read and write for more than two years, and I can also understand more than 100 articles." It takes three years to start practicing martial arts. ”
"Since you said you could read an article, have you ever memorized a poem?" the old man said with a smile. Yun Chuan didn't care, and said with a smile: "I learned the article when I was three years old, and I can also memorize it backwards." "I read it now. "Cover the two poles of yin and yang, divided from heaven and earth. The divine court is the sky, and the earth is too white. Born with red yang, the earth creates Xuanyin. Yang enters the purple palace, meaning to guard the sandalwood, yin line Liangqiu, qi gathers dantian. The universe is mixed, and the Tao is born at two poles. Crossing the Yang Pass, traveling to Tianfu, going out of the Shenmen Valley, gathering the aura of people, and meeting the gods of the mound. Movement leads to the passage of a hundred veins, and stillness is self-guarding of the gods. It's like this in everything. The boy read and read it three times.
The old man first heard this, but it was just an ordinary doctor's way of health preservation, and when he stayed until this last time, he remembered something. Hold it in the palm of your hand and act according to this method to know the subtlety of this method.
I don't know where this internal strength comes from, but it is very suitable for me. I don't know if this kid will memorize a few more words. He asked, "Is that much you know?"
Yun Chuan was puzzled: "This is what my father taught me when I was three years old, if it is the words of other saints, I can also recite it smoothly." But he was blocked by the old man, so he just stopped.
"From now on, you'll memorize this poem every time you jump, so that you won't be able to fly up to the roof in less than three years. ”
Yun Chuan didn't understand what he meant, and did what he said every day. The thing behind the old man shone brightly. I don't know why? The wind blows through the bamboo sea, and it becomes more and more green and beautiful.
He named Xing Yuchen, the son of Lord Xing, as the captain of the cavalry, temporarily controlled 300,000 soldiers, horses and farmers, and went straight to Yunzhou, which was thousands of miles away.
After traveling for more than 20 days, I finally saw the outline of Yunzhou City, a busy scene inside and outside the city. He was stationed outside the city and led dozens of his own soldiers into the city.
Along the way, the ruins and ruins were cleaned up, and the soldiers either unloaded their armor and did it, or repaired the houses, or maintained law and order, but there were only five or six hundred people alive in the first war, and the young and strong people who fled from all over the world gathered, and simply joined this ranks, one for survival, and the other for the future to kill back to their homeland and take revenge.
The staff trained more than 3,000 new soldiers in the open space in the city every day.
I went to the mansion in Nazhou, but there were no things, and it turned out that the former defenders of the city left all the things that could be used in the city.
Xing Yuchen saw the general and the state pastor in the state pastor's mansion, announced the edict, handed over his money, food, soldiers and horses, and sat there.
Sikong Yu is worried about the lack of money, food, soldiers and horses, and he doesn't know how to deal with the differences between the ministers and the ministers. Seeing that the Lord's grace was coming at this moment, not only did he arrive with all the needs, but he was grateful and hurriedly passed the order. Called the six generals of the long history to unify and the state pastor several county guards.
More than a dozen civil and military officers came to the house to discuss matters.
Everyone sat down in turn, and General Sikong hung out a map, which was the atlas of the topography and mountains and rivers of the land of Longyun.
"The sixteen states of Longyun in the past are all in this map. In the past, the people in various states were scarce, the big states were only tens of thousands, and the small states were less than more than 10,000 people. The enemy attacked them separately, and our dynasty suffered heavy losses. ”
The half-hundred-state pastor stroked his cheeks: "What the general said is very true, the difficulty of Longyun this time is caused by the enemy's strong men and horses and sudden attack. My generation has no martial emperor and martial arts, and the protection is not good. ”
"So these sixteen states don't want it, I will divide this thousand miles into Kyushu, every three cities are an inverted herringbone, from north to south, set up three rows of three cities, each city is more than 200 miles apart, a total of nine cities like an arrow tail shape against foreign enemies, if I become, two cities rush to help, if I commit the middle city, then the four cities can be saved, intrude the interior, it is necessary to break the nine cities, this thousand miles of land can block thousands of horses and thousands of troops. ”
Changshi stood and said: "The establishment of a new city in this way may cost people and money, and it will not be established in one day." ”
"The long history is too much, you can set up three cities first, slowly approaching, now the personnel are sufficient, if it is not divided into multiple roads, this Yunzhou City can not accommodate such a person. ”
The general looked sideways, and he didn't know if it was joy or anger.
"Whether it is nine cities or sixteen cities, if I can bless the people of Longyun, I will never give up. But it was the shepherd of the half hundred states who stood with his hands in his hands, as if waiting for the order.
The general's face was awe-inspiring: "The state pastor led 50,000 soldiers and horses and craftsmen out of the northeast for 200 miles to build a new state. The general Changshi led 50,000 soldiers and horses and craftsmen out of the northwest 200 miles away to find a site to build a new city, and the two cities were horns for each other, arching and defending Yunzhou.
Within two years, the city was built, the people were placed to produce and farm, and Xu Tu went north. The six commanders under his command each led 5,000 soldiers and horses, expelled the remnants in three ways, collected the land of Longyun, and set up a beacon tower according to 50 miles to guard the enemy's situation.
The beacon tower is under the jurisdiction of the chief, and in case of an emergency military situation, there must be no mistakes.
The rest of the people were stationed in Yunzhou, repaired the city, ran money and grain, cultivated production, restored all industries, and then went north a year later. ”
And when they arose, they were commanded, and they were to depart from the camp.
