Chapter 87

Sure enough, I don't know the years in the mountains.

In the following time, except for visiting Lu Deming once a month, Luo Yan spent the rest of his time studying in Qingping Temple.With nothing to do, he also gave lessons to the disciples of Xuzhi Guanzhu.Although Luo Yan doesn't know anything about Taoism, don't forget that no matter how Taoism is used, in addition to those Taoist things, there are two books that are regarded as classics, namely "Laozi" and "Zhuangzi".

Taoism also gave these two books very nice names, called "Tao Te Ching" and "Nanhua Jing".

Luo Yan is still very familiar with these two books.Although no one taught him these two books, Luo Yan has a certain understanding of these two books by reading a lot of books and drawing inferences.

Several children are not interested in "Tao Te Ching".But for the large number of stories in the book "Southern China Classic", I listened to Luo Yan's stories with great interest.Brothers Xuzhi and Xuji often come to listen to Luo Yan's talk, and they are as serious as those children who listen to the story.

Luo Yan knew that the two brothers were constantly learning and incorporating new things into their own way.

Many people tend to confuse Taoism with Taoism, which makes Luo Yan very sad.Even a Taoist priest like Xu Zhi keeps his mouth shut and waits for Taoist disciples.In fact, Taoism originated from Laozi, and Taoism originated from Zhang Daoling.One of the two is a school of thought, and the other is a religion. Although the connection between them is very deep, they still cannot be confused.

Therefore, Taoist disciples practice many things, including those of alchemists, Taoist theories, and deceitful people in the world.This Taoist thought was used by Taoist priests as their way of practice.

This is not something mysterious, at most it is the truth of life.Just like Confucian self-cultivation, a qualified Taoist priest is also constantly practicing his own virtue.Perhaps this is a very important point of the Chinese sect, that is, the habit of continuous learning, as long as one sticks to a basic point in thinking, then one will continue to learn and use it for one's own use.

The most classic example is Zen, which evolved from Buddhism.This is definitely a product of Buddhism that absorbed Confucianism and Taoism.

So Luo Yan didn't mind the two of them listening in.Listening to someone is not listening, let alone listening to yourself.

The time hastened to the eighth year of Wude, regardless of whether it was a Turkic attack or a rebellion outside the mountain, Luo Yan's three years of hard study finally came to fruition.When Luo Yan finished reading the last volume of "Wei Liaozi" in his hand, the long-lost system prompt finally sounded in his ears: "Congratulations to the host for completing the achievement task: breaking through 20 volumes in reading three times. Get physical fitness all-round strengthening once, get basic Survival skills on the battlefield. Open the achievement task: Read more than [-] volumes [-]. Read [-] volumes of books, the time limit is [-] years. Reward, free exchange once, reputation value is not limited."

It just so happened that it was late at night, and Luo Yan fell asleep immediately.Anyway, this kind of body strengthening is definitely not like Taoism's hair cutting and marrow washing. Although there will definitely be some changes in all aspects of the body after strengthening, but there is no pain, so let him strengthen it like this.

Luo Yan is really looking forward to what this so-called battlefield survival ability is, but he has no experience, so naturally he doesn't know what will happen then, so it's better to go to bed directly.

Luo Yan had a very long dream. He dreamed that he became a soldier. He didn't know what country he was fighting with. Anyway, there were hundreds of battles in the dream. Luo Yan was an ordinary soldier every time. The soldiers, holding either long spears or Tang knives in their hands, fought all kinds of battles, and suffered hundreds of wounds, some of which were even fatal.Fortunately, when Luo Yan opened his eyes the next day, not only in reality, but also in his dream, Luo Yan was alive and well.

It seemed that everything in the dream had also turned into the instinct of the body, Luo Yan found that he had some kung fu in his hands.Of course, it's not the kind of kung fu that breaks a few bricks with one palm, but both the palm and the fingers have become very flexible. When doing things, you can think of which method is the most labor-saving.

Obviously, the hundreds of battles in the dream were not in vain.This is probably the so-called primary battlefield survival skills.The system is really tall, and it can use this method to make people automatically adapt.

There is still more than half a month left in the three years agreed with Lu Deming, Luo Yan did not relax easily because of the completion of a stage of the task.Still as usual, I took out a new book and started reading.

The current Luo Yan, compared to his peers, is definitely considered knowledgeable.Even among his colleagues who worked together in the Secretary Department, there are not many who can compare with Luo Yan.Now Luo Yan is only 20 years old, and those who are better than Luo Yan are at least in their 30s.

Thousand volumes of books, in terms of cost, at least hundreds of books, and Luo Yan has completely memorized it backwards and has his own understanding.This is many times more difficult than the way that ordinary people finish reading it.

If old Mr. Lu Deming found out, wouldn't he laugh himself to death.Teaching such an excellent disciple is worth it in this life.

Half a month passed quickly, and at the end of August, Lu Deming sent someone to pick up Luo Yan.

Just like when they came, the Cui brothers still came to help Luo Yan.That kid, Qu Tuquan, couldn't come with him because he was in Luoyang with his own father.

This pair of brothers have been here many times in three years, and every time they bring friends or good wine and food.Cui Ying is because Luo Yan has gradually gained the praise of his family and pays more attention to his friendship with Luo Yan, while Cui Zheng is purely because of the "Humble Room Inscription" copied by Luo Yan, which says "There are great scholars in talking and laughing, but there is no communication." Bai Ding".

This article, like that couplet, has already been circulated, and there has been a lot of speculation.This represents the mainstream values ​​of basically all Confucian scholars who have not yet become officials.Living in peace and contentment, caring about state affairs, and studying hard, Luo Yan inadvertently became very popular when he was still studying in retreat.

This time, the little girl Yinger naturally also came.Without any shyness at all, Luo Yan was kicked out by the little girl, and she started packing the things in Luo Yan's room by herself.

The little girl has grown up gradually, and now she is also a little beauty.When Luo Yan was driven outside, he even knew that his face was red.

Of course, because of her growing environment, the little girl is still a little childish at the moment.As soon as she came up, she packed up the things she considered the most precious, which were the three scrolls written by Luo Yan.In the eyes of the little girl, this is something that has been circulated in Chang'an City for three years and has not become obsolete. It is definitely a treasure.So I packed it up first and put it in a bag that I had prepared earlier.

The little girl didn't pay much attention to the rest of the bedding and clothes, so she just rolled it up and it was over.Other small things here and there are also cleaned up in this way, so it is very fast.

Brothers Luo Yan and Cui Ying talked outside for a while, and the little girl went out with a proud face, and said, "Luo Yan, I've packed it up, let's move down the mountain quickly."

Just as Luo Yan was surprised when the little girl had such good housekeeping skills, when he entered the door, Luo Yan almost didn't laugh out loud.After cleaning up, there is absolutely no hair left in the house.But there is a problem here, that is, the package is too big and too much.

But the brothers Cui Ying and Cui Zheng had never seen the majesty of the little girl, especially Cui Zheng laughed out loud.Looking at Luo Yan whose face was already flushed from the suffocation, the little girl stared: "Move quickly." But, what's the matter with this blushing?

Fortunately, there are three carriages this time - when the Lu family came, they called for one more, just to prepare Luo Yan's things.So with the help of these few people, plus Luo Yan and the Cui brothers, they went up and down twice, and the move was finished.

When bidding farewell to Master Xuzhi, the little fellows of Xuanzi's generation were tearful, and they were reluctant to let Luo Yan go.

Promising a few little guys to come back to see them later, Luo Yan called Xuzhi Guanzhu aside, took out 50 taels of silver, and told him to keep it safe for emergency use in future difficulties.

Others didn't know, but Luo Yan knew it very well. A few months later, Tai Shi ordered Fu Yi to visit Li Yuan seven times, asking Sha to eliminate monks and nuns.Well, Fu Yi's original intention was to weed out Buddhist monks and nuns.As a result, when Li Yuan consulted Prince Li Jiancheng for his opinion, Li Jiancheng became dizzy and pleaded with Buddhism and Taoism.

Now Taoism has also fallen into the water.Originally, Li Yuan regarded Lao Tzu as his ancestor, and this Taoist theory came to the fore, and Taoism also took the opportunity to have some development. Who knew that such a problem would occur at this time.But Shang Shu Zuo Pu shot Xiao Yu openly opposed Fu Yi.Xiao Yu, as an aristocrat of the Southern Chen Dynasty, has experienced the changes of the three dynasties, and has always believed in Buddhism. Now that someone is making such a fuss, Xiao Yu naturally does not agree.

After some debate, even though Zhang Daoyuan, the imperial servant, was the only one supporting Fu Yi in the court, Li Yuan still decided to agree with Fu Yi's memorial.The reason is that as a ruler, Li Yuan hated monks and Taoist priests who evaded taxes and servitude, did not observe the precepts, and set up temples and temples everywhere.In April of the ninth year of Wude, Li Yuan ordered the monks, nuns, Taoist priests and female crowns in the whole country to move to the big temples and temples to provide food and clothing, while the others were ordered to return to their hometowns.Three Buddhist temples and two Taoist temples were retained in the capital, one in each prefecture, and the rest were abolished.

Luo Yan didn't know whether the so-called cultivation of Xuzhi and the others counted as spirituality. Although this person could talk about metaphysics with the Cui brothers, it would be hard to say when he came up with an investigation.Just in case, Luo Yan kept some money, no matter Xu Zhixuji or those children, it must be useful at that time.

As for Luo Yan's generosity, Xu Zhi was extremely grateful.

Going back to the carriage, I made an appointment here with a few young Taoist priests to come back to see them. Luo Yan and Yinger finally boarded the carriage and hurried to Chang'an.

 Because these chapters are transitional chapters, they may be a bit dull, sorry.The fourth watch was originally planned, but it is really sore at the moment, take a break, and the fourth watch will be put after twelve o'clock, so everyone goes to bed early.
