Chapter 6: The Talking Book

At the age of six, Tianyou was also like the son of the Tang Clan, and entered the ancestral hall to learn literature and martial arts.

Tang's ancestral hall Huaxu Hall, the gate is painted with the painted door god, and then enter is the instrument door, hang the Yuan Dynasty calligrapher Mr. Zhao Mengfu mentioned the "Mingli Hall" plaque, through the instrument door is the wide patio, the patio is the Yongdao, the end of the Yongdao is the terrace, climb the terrace into the second hall, the hall name is "ancestral worship hall", hang the Yuan Dynasty calligrapher Mr. Zhao Mengfu with the regular script inscription "Peach Blossom Spring", although the book is old, framed and mottled, but still rich and beautiful, beautiful and handsome. It is used to worship and worship ancestors, hold family meetings, and discuss family affairs. Behind the hall, there is a dormitory, a study and a martial arts training ground.

The dormitory is where ancestral shrines are enshrined.

The study room and martial arts training ground are the places where Tianyou and the other twelve sons of the Tang clan learn to practice martial arts.

There are a total of eighteen disciples who study and practice martial arts together, thirteen of the Tang family's two literary generations, seven martial character generations, and four character transmission generations, Jiang Haoyu, the grandson of the Jiang family's cloth workshop in the south of the alley, Li Jiahao, the son of the Li family's fresh fruit factory, Zhou Qingliu, Zhou Qingquan, a pair of twins of the Suzhou Zhou family of Xishan Fruit, and Wang Jibao, the son of the old Wang family next door to the garden.

Although Mr. Chen, a teacher, is not a relative of the Tang family, he is also a relative of the Tang family, and he is the nephew of Tang Qianyuan, and he is the same as Tianyou.

The martial arts master is Tang Wentao, the eldest son of Tang Qiande, the senior brother among the disciples of the Tang family, and his martial arts cultivation is indeed the highest among the Tang family's literary generations, but the family's prestige is not the highest, because he is not the grandson of the Tang clan.

Sister Tang Wenting took Tianyou's hand every day from the end of Qianguo Lane to the end of the alley, and walked into the ancestral hall with him to learn literature and martial arts. Although Tang Wenting's martial arts are far higher than those of the children studying here, and not even necessarily worse than the master Tang Wentao, my sister still practices so seriously. She always hoped to set an example for her brother and tell him the truth that diligence can make up for his shortcomings.

Tianyou is very smart, never forgetful, no one can compare with the study of literature, I like to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs, but I don't like to practice martial arts.

The collection of books on the second floor is mainly Taoist classics, Go and chess scores, martial arts classics and Tang family trees. In Tianyou's mind, reading is a happy thing, and practicing martial arts is the most boring and painful thing.

For learning martial arts, Tianyou has always been passable, and he has to mix day by day. When it was time to practice martial arts, Tianyou always had to secretly escape to the library on the second floor of the study to read books, considering that Tianyou was not in good health, everyone did not force him, and his sister Tang Wenting always sat at the staircase and quietly watched Tianyou read.

My sister always thinks: everything is inferior, only reading is high. Maybe one day my younger brother will really get ahead in his studies, get famous, and get an official position, and he will be able to keep Qianguo Lane. So as for whether Tianyou needs to practice martial arts, my sister Wen Ting doesn't bother to care.

Tianyou is busy reading books all day long, and he basically doesn't learn martial arts, and every time he takes a martial arts exam, the master always arranges for Tang Wenbo, who has the highest martial arts among his classmates, to compare with him. Tang Wenbo is the youngest of the Maoshan Tang family's literary generation, he is good, smart, and has high martial arts, he always protects Tianyou in every martial arts exam, so every martial arts exam, Tianyou's results are always not bad.

Tianyou is good at writing and hating martial arts in the ancestral hall, and his mother Shen knows it. Mother Shen would come to the ancestral hall every once in a while to see Tianyou practice martial arts, understand the basic situation of Tianyou, and know that Tianyou's martial arts have not grown much, and she has also reprimanded. After listening to Tianyou talk about Taoist academics, poetry and songs, I think that my child is not in good health, and it may not be the material for practicing martial arts, and it is not a bad thing for children to be lazy in practicing martial arts, but they are obsessed with learning literature, and they are too lazy to care.

In this way, Tianyou spent a good literary and martial arts study life in the ancestral hall.

The collection on the second floor is mainly Taoist classics, Go chess books, martial arts classics and Tang family trees, which Tianyou likes. In Tianyou's mind, reading is a happy thing, and practicing martial arts is the most boring and painful thing. Whenever he calmed down and read seriously, he would always hear a voice talking to him in the bottom of his heart. The content of the speech is inaudible, and the voice is soft and sweet.

Tianyou told her sister about this strange encounter, and her sister didn't criticize him, and didn't say that your idea was too amazing and impossible. Instead, he praised him and encouraged him: "My good brother, you do have an unusual nature, and you did not let your sister hurt in vain. Take your time and you'll find the book that talks to you. ”

Tianyou believed his sister's words the most, from the age of six to the age of nine to study, for three years, as soon as it was time to practice martial arts, he secretly fled to the second floor of the study to read books, he rummaged through all the books in the library, and still did not find the book that talked to him.

When he was ten years old, in winter, the twentieth day of the lunar month, the weather was very cold, it was about to be the New Year, it was snowing heavily, the classmates went back early, he was reading upstairs alone, and his sister brought him a stove, and sat at the staircase as usual and watched him. He picked up a copy of the "Yellow Emperor Yin Fu Sutra" and fell asleep.

Tianyou heard a sweet voice talking to himself about "Yang Xu's Notes", and felt that sweet voice was not far away. He turned his head and stared blankly at the bookshelf in front of him. There were nine shelves, and the highest two were so high that he couldn't reach them, so he said, "Sister, help me find a high stool." ”

Sister: "What are you doing?"

Tianyou: "I want to read?"

Sister: "I'll take it down for you, which one do you want?"

Tianyou: "No, I want to take it myself, quickly!"

My sister always believed in Tianyou's words, and quickly brought a high stool from downstairs.

Tianyou stood on the barstool, did not take the book, but closed his eyes and gently stroked the books on the bookshelf with his hand, feeling one by one.

Suddenly, he clearly felt that the sweet voice came from a very old "Yellow Emperor Yin Fu Sutra".

When he stroked the very old "Yellow Emperor Yin Fu Sutra", he clearly felt that sweet voice "poof" and laughed, very short, very sad, as if he had done his best.

This is a manuscript of "The Yellow Emperor's Yin Fu Sutra", with a beautiful hand.

Tianyou happily told her sister about it.

Tianyou: "Sister, I found the talking book." ”

Sister: "Really, that's great!"

Tianyou: "It is a very old manuscript "The Yellow Emperor's Yin Fu Sutra", which is on the top floor of the bookshelf. You showed it to me last year, and when you were worried about damaging this ancient book, you simply flipped through it and didn't move much. ”

"There is a fairy in this book, and it must be beautiful. The words are like her person, and it can be seen that she must be the handwriting of a beautiful woman. ”

"She was talking to me about "Yang Xu's Notes", and she was very clear. ”

Tianyou said incoherently excitedly.

Sister: "Great! "Yang Xu's Notes" is a book of cultivating immortals, this is your adventure, my good brother, you must work hard, the Tang family will rely on you in the future." ”

Sister: "However, my good brother, this matter must not be known to anyone, including mother, grandmother, and old lady, and it must be kept a secret." ”

Tianyou: "Why?"

Sister: "Don't ask why, take my sister's word." Learn well with the fairy. ”

My sister smiled happily and smiled brightly. It seems that the younger brother will become a hero of the world as Mr. Fan said. This encounter with the guidance of the immortals is a new beginning for my younger brother.
