Chapter 72: Overnight
(Stay up late and update, please vote for support and encouragement!)
Chen Jianchen carried a book on his back and supported the cloth curtain on the wooden frame. From a distance, he looked like a small sedan chair. In fact, this cloth curtain can only play a general role. For example, if there is no way to go when there is a strong wind and heavy rain, it is mainly used as a hat, and there is no problem in shading the sun.
Chen Jianchen was wearing a white scholar's robe, a Confucian scarf, and a calligraphy handed over. He was a typical image of a scholar who went out to study, and he must be a poor scholar.
This is because rich scholars do not need to carry heavy books on their own? They are all servants or children who work on their own, but they can tilt golden fans with light hands to make a happy and carefree look.
Chen Jianchen inexplicably remembered that in "A Chinese Ghost Hun", Leslie Cheung appeared in this image. Compared to his wandering and sleeping all the way, he was in a mess by the wind and rain, but in fact he was quite relaxed.
Chen Jianchen did not have any transportation tools, and the donkeys in the past were sold long ago, so they were not very useful. As for horses and carriages, they were rare and difficult to get. Therefore, they could only walk.
If you change to an ordinary weak scholar, you will definitely not be able to walk for more than ten miles. You are afraid that your feet will blister after walking a few hundred meters away and you will be tired. But Chen Jianchen is accustomed to training early and walks vigorously. He doesn't feel tired after walking for more than an hour.
At noon, Chen Jianchen saw the outline of Jingyang Village, but he did not go in, but went around from the side and headed straight for Fengshan.
——It's autumn again, and Fengshan is the "peak season" of tourism. However, because it has been raining a few days ago, it is hindering travel, so I didn't see any literati coming out of the city on the way. Otherwise, with Chen Jianchen's outfit, I could at least get a ride-share ride.
Chen Jianchen left the city alone and rushed to Fengshan. In fact, his purpose was not entirely to find Yingning. On the one hand, the mountains behind Fengshan were vast and he didn't know where Yingning's cave was. Looking for it was equivalent to finding a needle in a haystack; on the other hand, he chose to leave Jiangzhou during this period mainly to avoid the irritable Dharma-propaganda conference.
The Jiangzhou City Dharma Propaganda Conference lasted for three days. A huge venue was built in Chengfu Square. The snails were blowing every day. The monks took turns to preach, and there were believers under the scene...
It's very lively, almost irritable.
Compared to the Taoist sect, I am free and carefree, the Buddhist family advocates that everyone in the world can enter. The so-called "put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot." Even if a demon king is full of blood, as long as he is willing to reform himself and put down the butcher's knife, he can become a Buddha.
Such a proposition makes the threshold for the Shi family very low, and it is almost as low as nothing, and it is easy to obtain a huge mass base. Or because of this, the Tiantong Dynasty has been opposed to Buddhism in all dynasties, perhaps because it is because it is afraid that the Shi family will expand too quickly and will shake the foundation of the country.
This time, I don’t know why Emperor Zhengming turned against the ancestral teachings and began to spread the Dharma and worship Buddha.
Chen Jianchen was not in the temple and did not know the many changes in the storm, but he still felt a vague feeling of "the rain comes in the mountains". From what Master Qingyun said, "The country will die, there will be monsters" to Nie Zhiyuan's demotion, Chen Jianchen could roughly infer some unusual trends.
This trend is the general trend.
Under the general trend, individual power often appears pale and powerless.
This is also the fundamental reason why Chen Jianchen has always been very careful in dealing with people and things. He always hides the things in his heart deeply, rather than showing off his gaze to go against the will of heaven.
Now, even the weather has not changed yet...
Only by being wise can one protect oneself.
There is no doubt that Chen Jianchen has not yet reached the highest level of "worrying about the world before worrying about the world, and having fun after joy in the world". He estimated that if he wants to reach that step, the realm of "Three Li Zhenzhang" is almost "establishing virtue".
This requires accumulation, continuous learning, reflection, understanding, and breakthrough. Putting aside the form, "Three True Chapters" are essentially the same as martial arts, Taoism, etc., but there is no distinct level division, which is even more mysterious.
Sometimes, Chen Jianchen even doubted the true origin of "Sanli Zhenzhang", which may be just covered with a layer of Confucian skin, and always felt that there were many mysterious secrets inside that were not understood.
Or, if you want to truly understand, you must cultivate to the highest realm of "establishing virtue", and moral cultivation will be immortal. At that time, the world of his Niwan Palace will definitely be completely clear and clear. The evil-proof pen and the mysterious person who can only see his back will show his true face.
It can be said that Chen Jianchen has been seeking a path that suits him all the time.
There is a saying that "integration of knowledge and action is one", which is very clear, but in reality, many situations often have knowledge but no action. Without it, it is just limited by the limitations of actual conditions and restricts actual behavior. For example, how can you do charity without money? How can you act bravely without power?
If you have the original intention but have no ability, it will eventually be a talk.
Therefore, Chen Jianchen has been chasing and possessing strength.
With diversified power, power is undoubtedly one of the sources of power in the world; and when facing demons and ghosts, all kinds of monks, righteousness is the basis for resting on life.
How to organically combine the two is a question Chen Jianchen is thinking about.
...
In the evening, Chen Jianchen had already arrived at the place where he encountered Yingning and the wolf demon for the first time, ate dry food, and then found a suitable place to prepare for the overnight stay. He was not afraid of being attacked by wild beasts, and there was a rat demon there.
Xiaoyi is the best guard.
Although it is small and has no appearance, it is also a monster in the realm of the yin god, isn't it? Ordinary beasts dare not challenge the rat monster at all. They sensed the breath keenly and had already escaped after seeing the wind.
If you have Xiaoyi, you will be more confident in finding Yingning.
The bonfire was rising, and Chen Jianchen was not sleepy yet, so he sat upright and read books under the light of the fire. His books contained several books to relieve the loneliness of the journey.
If people are in the deep mountains, light bonfires, and read poetry and books, if they are found out, they will not be called a madman.
In fact, some scholars and scholars always stay away from the city and villages before the imperial examinations arrive, so as to concentrate on studying, and move out of the city and villages. They build huts in some beautiful mountains and rivers, live in, and study poetry and books hard.
Zhuge Wolong's "Journey to the Journey" has a lot of space. The protagonist in the short story is this type of scholar. When they read at night, they will encounter beautiful and kind fox fairy. After some entanglement, they will add fragrance to their red sleeves, and finally they will be able to hold the beauty back, stage a living oriental version of fairy tale.
Chen Jianchen knew that these stories had a certain real foundation. Because there was a kind and cute vixen Yingning in this Fengshan, but I don’t know if it will come out tonight.
