Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 743

In Xiangguo in midsummer, the heat is not inferior to southern Xinjiang.

With the gathering of the army in the middle of the country and the crusade to the south, many Chinese people who had wandered around the capital of Xiangguo and ostentatiously were conscripted into the army. As a result, the law and order in the city of Xiangguo improved, and it was no longer as chaotic and difficult as it used to be. bundle.

Located in a garden villa in Chongrenli, Xiangguo, the high walls are lined with trees, among which are slender and dense moso bamboos, and there are hundreds of flowers in full bloom. The garden scenery is dizzying.

There is a two-foot-high attic in the garden. The upper floor is wrapped with colorful satin to shade the sun, and the lower floor is circulated by curved water to dispel the heat. It is a very elegant place.At this time, on the upper floor of the attic, several people were sitting in order, looking intently at an old man with a white beard and hair and a feather crown sitting in the middle.

The old man is Yan Mu, and even now, he has already gained a great reputation in Xiangguo. Every time there is a forum to discuss and preach, there are often people present.

Everyone in the attic was listening to Yan Mu's sermon on Taixuan, suddenly there was a lot of noise outside the building, everyone looked together, and saw a group of people walking towards this place through the bamboo forest.The crowned person surrounded by these people is none other than Cheng Xia, an important minister of the Jie Kingdom.

It can be said that Cheng Xia has been enjoying the spring breeze recently, he is greeted in daily life, and there is no shortage of sights when he goes in and out. At this time, there are not lack of old Wangmen from Jin people, but also many new military leaders and commanders.

Walking near the attic, Cheng Xia stopped, turned his head and looked at the crowd, and then they stopped, bowing their hands and sending Cheng Xia into the building.

When Cheng Xia walked up to the attic, several people in the building also got up and stood respectfully to one side, bowing their hands in greeting.

Regarding the etiquette of others, Cheng Xia only responded briefly, and walked quickly to Yan Mu's seat, seeing that Yan Mu was about to get up, he quickly raised his hand and said: "I am a common man with dirty dust, and it is too shameless to disturb Master Yan Xuanjing Indecent, why dare to trouble the master to move the body again."

After Yan Mu heard the words, he stood up no longer stubbornly, and signaled the newly recruited disciples to quickly prepare a couch and invite Cheng Xia to take the seat. Then he smiled and said: "There are monsters in the middle school, and Taoism is not easy. If it weren't for Cheng Gong's help, The people of this village have to disobey the Daoist voice for a long time, and follow the etiquette to see it, Cheng Gong will accept it without shame."

After Cheng Ya heard the words, he said with a smile: "I don't worry about the death of the body, but worry about the failure of the way. Master has such a respectful and sincere Taoist heart. How can anyone with this heart be a bystander. I just did what I should do , The four barbarians entered China, and the rumors spread rampantly in the world. This is what we in the Central Plains regret. I only regret that there is no metaphysical teaching to destroy this Buddha. Master entered the country and destroyed it. This is a blessing for all people."

What these two people said was an incident not long ago.Earlier, Yan Mu gradually became famous, which aroused the dissatisfaction of some Hujiao monks in Xiangguo, and gathered to discuss the Dharma.When it comes to lip service, Yan Mu is still able to walk among the famous families in Jiangdong, and there are many profound scholars in his acquaintance.But today's Buddhist teachings are still very crude, and these foreign monks are mostly hypocritical to deceive the world, and it is even more difficult to have any profound attainments.

Although they lost in the discussion, these foreign monks refused to give up and privately invited a group of tyrannical Hu people to drive Yan Mu out of Xiangguo.It was Cheng Xia who came to help, not only severely punished those foreign monks, but also presented them with garden villas, enshrining Yan Mu here.

Cheng Yan came here to pay a visit, and the rest couldn't stay and disturb, so they left one after another, and only Qian Feng stayed as Yan Mu's disciple.

"The climate of the Central Plains is different from that of southern Xinjiang. Shiyi lives here, but can he still become a vulgar? I am busy with chores, and I have no time to serve Master Yan for a long time. Master Yan is here, and I have to work hard for you to wait and see."

After everyone retreated, Cheng Xia said to Qian Feng with a smile.Although he has never been in Jiangdong, he has heard of Qian Feng's name, and he is quite curious about him.In particular, the lord Wang Dun, who was assisted by him, had been defeated and died, but Qian Feng was able to flee to the North Kingdom with a disfigured appearance. Such an experience added a bit of mystery to this person.

Qian Feng didn't hide his identity, and of course he didn't want to take the initiative to reveal it. In fact, Liu Wei already knew his true identity, and if he wanted to contact Cheng Xia, it was impossible for Liu Wei to take the risk and hide it for him.Fortunately, he doesn't have a good reputation in Jiangdong, and his close relationship with Shen's family is somewhat uncertain even for Liu Wei, who fled from the south. What's the danger.

"Guanglu asks, but I really don't dare to be a phoenix. It is a great fortune in life to be able to survive with a broken body. It is even more dear to the heavens to meet a strict master here. How dare you neglect it."

Qian Feng personally offered buttermilk to the two of them, and then avoided sitting in the side table to copy the scriptures, as if he didn't pay attention to things outside of him, but it was really like the rest of his life after the catastrophe.

Although he was slightly curious about Qian Feng, it was nothing more than that.After exchanging pleasantries, Cheng Xia still focused on Yan Mu, and after chatting for a while, he said with a smile: "See you today, I still want to invite Master to give some more doses of Xuan San. I have been bothered recently, if there is no such If you are happy, you will feel sleepy and tired, and you will be tired of eating and drinking."

After Yan Mu heard the words, he asked his disciples to fetch some cold food powder in a jade box, handed them to Cheng Xia, and then said: "Although this is interesting, it should be done as you please."

Hearing this, Cheng Xia was a bit vigilant, and frowned slightly: "There is no lack of poison in powder, and I have heard about it. But it is a commoner's inferior skill and cannot reach the profound, but Master Yan's skill is profound, so can't you?" Get rid of this harm?"

"There is a profound music in Sanzhong, which is beyond ordinary people's ability to hold. A mediocre person harms himself, and it doesn't stop at this end. Violence seeks death, rape kills life, both are the way to death, how can Sanshi be the only one to blame?"

Yan Mu is well versed in this way, so he naturally has his own set of rhetorical theories. There are a lot of people in this world who are committing suicide. Compared with them, the proportion of those who surrender and die is already small.

Cheng Xia agrees with Yan Mu's fallacy, and nodded after hearing the words: "Those who are brave will turn to enemies, and those who are fighting will conspire to kill. People's life and death depend on their own choices. Too much resentment outside the body, on the contrary, is a vulgar idea, and blame others."

"However, Sanle Tongxuan is not a pleasure that ordinary people can often enjoy. If you often indulge in it, such as fish and shrimp exposed to the sun on the mountain ridge, and animals drowning in the deep stream, how can you not be harmed? This is not the poison of loose food. , but it’s not a place for people. Chenggong is not lacking in elegance, but he is also full of chores and can’t keep quiet for a long time, so he should be happy and comfortable, not for a long time.”

After Cheng Ya heard the words, he nodded again and again: "If I hadn't been lucky enough to meet Master Yan, how could I have heard so many virtuous voices and be educated. It's a pity that people in the world are blinded by worldly dust and filled with distracting thoughts, like Master Yan. Gao Xian, who kept the truth, turned out to be a different kind in the world."

Qian Feng had already tempered the city's profoundness, and his joy and anger could not be expressed, but when he heard Cheng Xia's admiration for Yan Mu, the brush used to copy the book with a cantilever paused subconsciously, leaving a little ink mark on the paper.

Cheng Ya didn't pay much attention to this, and then began to ask for advice on the harm that layman like him would have if he had to be obedient.

Yan Mu naturally has another set of rhetoric, which not only makes Cheng Xia vigilant about this, but will not be afraid of loose food like a snake, and at the same time strengthens his own brand concept by the way: "The mystery of the ultimate joy is originally a way to cultivate internally and externally. The wonderland can only be reached. Under the guise of external forces, it is a small path after all. If the person who practices this is not aware of the wonderland, and the difference is slight, and the importance is lost, then the recipient of the Dharma will inevitably lose his spirit. The will is lost in nothingness, although life seems to be dead, and life seems to be dead, this is the so-called obsession with mystery, so we must be careful."

Hearing Yan Mu's mysterious words, Cheng Xia became interested again, discussing for a long time how people can become alive but look dead.

After more than an hour, Cheng Ya's family members outside the attic reported to the court to summon them, so Cheng Ya ended the discussion with Yan Mu with a lot of satisfaction, and sighed regretfully: "It seems that I still have to stop at the Taoist gate after all. Besides, right now the middle school of the country is mostly used for the border, and the Lord pays me all the internal and external affairs, it is really hard to have too much leisure to travel around Xuanxiang with Yan Shijun, so I will leave for the time being, and come to ask for advice when I have time in the future."

After finishing speaking, he stood up, and Qian Feng got up and sent them out of the attic.

Walking to the outside of the attic, when they were about to part, Cheng Xia's heart moved. He stood outside the building and looked at Qian Feng and asked, "Shiyi also grew up in the east of the Yangtze River, and he is rare among southern scholars. From your point of view, this time in Zhongshan What will be the result of Wang Yong's affairs in the South?"

After Qian Feng heard the words, he quickly waved his hands and said, "It's very rustic, so I seldom get a glimpse of the greatness of the Central Plains; I was born in the world, and it's hard to think of my sad hometown. I really dare not talk about big things, so as not to pollute Guanglu's audiovisual."

"Shiyi is too modest. What you failed was only because you were not a human being. If you had followed the Lord of China, you would definitely not be a backward generation. Right now, it's just chatter. Let me just listen to it."

Cheng Xia said with a smile again.

"Since this is the case, then Feng will not hesitate to ask Guanglu."

So Qian Feng pondered for a while and said: "The phoenix is ​​rare to see the bravery of the king of Zhongshan. However, in ancient times, the man of destiny has his own rich relatives and strange omens. They are similar, but they are narrowly superior to ordinary people. The Central Plains is vast, but Nanxiang also has its own strengths. In the past, Wei Wenbing's troops on the great river once lamented that the sky was limited to the north and the south. From this point of view, this time we use things, and we may be able to accumulate meritorious deeds. , it is really difficult to penetrate north and south."

After Cheng Ya heard the words, he pointed at Qian Feng and laughed: "Qian Shiyi's theory, after all, is still limited to the old tune. Since the Lord used things, the revolution of heaven and earth has changed from today to the past. It is by no means an old tune, nor a narrow mind Nengdu. But you were born in the Southern Wilderness after all, so if you are biased or out of human affection, you don't have to be stupid."

"Feng also dares to make an argument. If the king is in person, it is not easy to judge. But the King of Zhongshan... well, I also judge the big from the small, and dare not speak deeply."

After Qian Feng finished speaking, he bid farewell to Cheng Xia, turned around and returned to the attic.

After Cheng Xia heard this, he was taken aback for a moment, and then couldn't help but guess what Qian Feng meant.He didn't think what Qian Feng said was so clever, Nan Shi was stuck in knowledge after all.However, what Qian Feng said about Zhongshan King was not a blessing of fate, which made Cheng Xia think about it a little.A few years ago when he conquered the Han Kingdom, the Zhongshan King was defeated, and the Lord had to come forward to clean up the mess. This time it is another war against the Han Kingdom. I wonder if the old things will happen again?
