The old man surnamed Du finally said: "Uncle Qiao, after you and I are in the palm of your hand, you must have believed us." I just want to tell you one thing: Zen Master Zhiguang participated in the killing of Lingzun Lingtang back then, but he was misled by vain, and he was by no means out of his own heart, and he was very remorseful, and I hope you will show mercy. ”
Qiao Feng agreed: "Qiao Feng has died for the rest of his life, and it is really a great fortune to be able to make friends with five masters. In the next will never add a finger to the body of Master Zhiguang. "At the moment, Dongfang Undefeated and Ah Zhu swept away the messy long hair in front of their faces, revealing their true appearance.
The five old men stood up, clasped their fists and said, "Don't pass it over, there will be a period later!"
Qiao Feng and the three of them also saluted: "Five seniors, take care of yourself." ”
The old man surnamed Du said, "You also take care." ”
The five of them walked out of the pavilion and walked the way they came.
The five of them walked for a while, and then looked back at Qiao Feng, Dongfang Undefeated and Ah Zhu.
The three of them kept waving to them until they turned the col and saw their backs again.
Dongfang Undefeated asked softly: "Brother Qiao, you were so bold just now, why did you dare to withdraw your palm power when you were fighting against someone? You are not afraid that the opponent will make a trick, when you withdraw your strength, he will attack with more force, and you will either die or be seriously injured!"
Qiao Feng felt a little embarrassed, and said: "I was also afraid of being beaten to death by the old gentleman surnamed Chi, but when I thought that you were by my side, I would definitely not let me die......" Hearing him say this, Dongfang Undefeated's face was already smiling, she turned her head sideways, bowed her head and said: "Thanks to the trust of the eldest brother, I entrusted my life." ”
Qiao Feng only felt a warmth surging in his chest, and he also laughed with her.
Ah Zhu, who was on the side, listened to the conversation between the two, and a strange expression suddenly flashed on his face, revealing a little joy and a little sadness.
Out of the pavilion, the three of them walked along the mountain road, and walked for more than ten miles, and came to the outside of the Zhiguan Temple.
Among the monasteries of Tiantai Mountain, Guoqing Temple is famous all over the world, the high monk and wise master of the Sui Dynasty once resided in Xi, and the "Tiantai Sect" was greatly developed, and it was an important place for Buddhism for hundreds of years.
But in the martial arts, it is much more famous in the name of the Guanzen Temple.
When Qiao Feng saw it, it turned out to be just an ordinary small temple, and most of the plaster paint outside the temple had peeled off, and he didn't expect the famous Zhiguan Temple to look like this.
Qiao Feng pushed open the temple door and said loudly inside: "Master Zhiguang, junior Qiao Feng wants to meet his seniors, please give him a meeting." ”
I only heard Zhiguang's voice say: "The distinguished guest is coming from afar, and the old man is not welcome. As he spoke, he walked to the door and saluted.
When Qiao Feng saw Master Zhiguang, he took a deep look and said, "Disturbing Master Qing Xiu, Qiao Feng is deeply uneasy. ”
Zhiguang said: "Good, good! Three donors, please follow me to the meditation room to talk." ”
Qiao Feng, Dongfang Undefeated, and Ah Zhu followed him into the temple gate, through a bamboo-lined path, and came to a hut.
Monk Zhiguang pushed open the door and said, "Please!" Qiao Feng and the other three walked in.
Zhiguang said to the three of them, "Please sit down." He first sat cross-legged on a futon, and then Qiao Feng, Dongfang Undefeated and A Zhu sat down on the three futons opposite him.
Qiao Feng asked Master Zhiguang and said, "Xiao Ke is not filial, come to ask the master for the truth of his life experience, and I hope to give him advice." ”
Master Zhiguang replied: "Ling Zun left handwriting on the stone wall outside Yanmen Pass, claiming that his surname was Xiao and his name was Yuanshan. He called you 'Feng'er' in his last words. We kept your original name, just because we entrusted it to the Qiao family and his wife to raise, and we had to follow their surname. ”
When Qiao Feng heard this, his body trembled, although he knew that he was a Khitan, but what his father's surname was has not been known, only then did he hear Zhiguang say that his surname was "Xiao", he couldn't help but have a cold sweat on his back, tears in his eyes, stood up, and said: "Until today, I have known my father's name, and I have shown the kindness of the master, and I will be worshiped in the next place." So saying, he bowed down.
Dongfang Undefeated and Ah Zhu also left their seats and stood up and bowed to Master Zhiguang Yingying.
When Zhiguang saw it, he hurriedly returned the courtesy: "Lao Wei is also one of the culprits who participated in the killing of your mother and forced your father to death.
Dongfang Undefeated raised his body and said, "The master's words are wrong. My eldest brother has always had a clear grudge, and it is true that you were wrong to participate in the murder of his own parents, but today it is a blessing for him to learn about his background. Since my eldest brother's surname is Xiao, he should be a descendant of the Da Liao nobles, right?"
Master Zhiguang nodded and replied: "The donor's words are good, the surname of the Liao State is Yelu, and except for the first queen who is Shulu, the surname of the future dynasties is Xiao. The descendants of the Xiao family will be full of dynasties and extremely powerful in the Liao State. Sometimes the Liao lord is young, the Empress Dowager Xiao is in power, and the Xiao family is more powerful. Your brother-in-law, he is indeed from a noble relative. ”
Qiao Feng suddenly learned that his original surname was the Khitan surname, and for a while, he had mixed feelings, and he was distracted for a while, and turned his head to Dongfang Undefeated and A Zhu and said: "From now on, I am Xiao Feng, no longer Qiao Feng." ”
The second daughter responded: "Yes, Brother Xiao." ”
Zhiguang said again: "Xiao Daxia, you must have seen the handwriting left on the stone wall outside Yanmen Pass?"
Xiao Feng shook his head and said, "No." When I arrived at the gate, the handwriting on the stone wall had been shoveled clean, and no trace had been left. ”
Dongfang was undefeated and added: "I don't know what the purpose of the person who shoveled the engraving was." Master, in the apricot forest that day, you once said that those inscriptions were extended by you and Senior Wang, but I don't know where the rubbings of those words are now?"
Zhiguang sighed lightly and said, "Alas, the Dongfang donor asked well, and the old man didn't know why that person wanted to shovel the words on the stone wall. The matter has been done, the words on the stone wall can be shoveled away, how can those dozens of lives be saved?" took out a huge piece of old cloth from his sleeve and said: "Master Xiao, this is the rubbing of the stone wall's last words. ”
Xiao Feng's heart sank, took the old cloth, and unfolded it.
I saw that the big cloth was made of many robes and rags, and all of them were hollow white characters on the cloth, with peculiar strokes, and the appearance was very similar to Chinese characters, but I didn't know a word, and I knew that it was a Khitan script, but I saw that the handwriting and strokes were majestic, like a knife and an axe.
Hearing Zhiguang say that this was carved by his father with a short knife before he died, he couldn't help but feel sad and said, "This ...... This can be regarded as my biological father's suicide note, as a Khitan, but I don't even know a single Khitan script, I am ashamed, and I ask the master to interpret it. ”
Master Zhiguang said: "Back then, we extended it down, and asked the people who knew the Khitan script in Yanmen Pass to explain, and even asked a few people, the meaning was average, and it must be good." This line says: 'Feng'er was one year old, and he went to his grandmother's house with his wife for a banquet, and suddenly encountered a thief from the Southern Dynasty on the way......"
When Xiao Feng heard this, his heart was even more sour, and he listened to Zhiguang continue: "'...... The incident happened in a hurry, his wife and children were victimized by thieves, and Yu did not want to live again. Yu Zhuye's mentor is a Han in the Southern Dynasty, Yu had sworn not to be an enemy of the Han people before the teacher, let alone kill the Han people, how do you know that today a kill of more than ten, both ashamed and painful, after death there is no face to see the teacher. Xiao Yuanshan is unique. ’”
After listening to Zhiguang's words, Xiao Feng respectfully put away the big cloth rubbing, saluted him, and said, "This is the legacy of Xiao's ancestors, ask the master to see it." ”
Zhiguang said: "It should have been given." ”
Xiao Feng's mind was in turmoil, and he realized his father's pain at that time, only to know that he committed suicide by throwing himself off a cliff, not only because of the tragic death of his wife and children, but also because of his self-destruction oath, he killed many Han people, so that he was ashamed of his teacher.
Dongfang Undefeated was suspicious: "Who is Uncle Xiao's master? This person is acting very strangely. A Han man from the Song Dynasty, in the period when the Khitan and Song people in the Liao State killed each other was very frequent, ran to the Liao State alone, selected a young man with high talent among the Khitan descendants, and worked tirelessly to translate the advanced martial arts of the Han people in the Song State into the Khitan language, and taught this disciple that although this disciple had learned a brilliant martial arts, he was not very good at speaking Chinese, and then asked him to make a strange oath not to kill the Han people. What is this man's purpose?"
"And Aunt Xiao's eccentricity is no less than Uncle Xiao's master. On the occasion of Brother Xiao's first birthday, Uncle Xiao accompanied Aunt Xiao back to her parents' home, Song Liao was bounded by Yanmen Pass, and Aunt Xiao's maiden home was in Guannei, so was she a Song or Liao? If she was a Liao, why did her family live on the land of the Han people in the Song Kingdom? If she was a Song person, how did she and Uncle Xiao know Uncle Xiao in the home gate? Uncle Xiao didn't speak much Chinese, how did they communicate? Even if Aunt Xiao accommodated Uncle Xiao and kept speaking Khitan dialect, when Brother Xiao was one year old, they should have been married for almost two years, right? Aunt Xiao is going to take her husband back to her parents' house, why don't you even teach Uncle Xiao to speak Chinese?"
After a while, Xiao Feng said slowly: "Since I said goodbye to the master in the apricot forest in Wuxi, there have been countless doubts in my heart in recent days, and I ask the master to guide me. ”
Zhiguang said: "My Buddha taught his disciples in Tianzhu back then, and the disciples asked many questions, and some of the Buddhas enlightened in detail, and some of the questions did not answer, not that the Buddha did not know and could not answer, but some of the answers were too profound, and some of them involved a wide range of questions, and they could not be exhausted. The old man is superficial and does not dare to follow my Buddha's example. If you think it is better not to answer, you will not answer, and I would like to report to the donor first. ”
