Chapter 217: Turn on the lamp at night to look at the stele (below)

Views:

Previously, Tianhai Shengxue said that these people in the family were going crazy, and he was not referring to those princes and princes who talked nonsense at the banquet, but the fathers of those people and his own fathers—those people invited people from the south to try to influence Chen Changsheng to view the stele Enlightenment—Tianshu Mausoleum is too important for ascetics, and everyone understands the truth of taking one step at a time.

But he didn't pay much attention to it. Because in the Great Court Examination, he had secretly placed a bet on Chen Changsheng through His Royal Highness Luo Luo, and because, although no one knew why Chen Changsheng was valued by the Pope, there must be a reason for this value. As long as a guy who can communicate in battle, as long as he is not eliminated physically, it is almost impossible to eliminate him spiritually, this is Tian Hai Shengxue's opinion. However, after hearing the words of King Chen Liu and the name Zhou Tong, he realized that he still underestimated the action power of his fathers.

People in the world say that Zhou Tong is a dog raised by the Holy Empress, but he is not an ordinary dog, but the most vicious dog in history. Said Taotian, I don’t know how many ministers and famous generals have died. If you want to say who the ministers who still love the old royal family and the old people in the state religion hate the most, it is not the Holy Empress, but him. for decades.

I don't know how many strong men would risk their own lives to assassinate this person, but none of them succeeded, because Zhou Tong was always surrounded by dozens of eerie iron guards, and because Zhou Tong himself was a star-gathering realm Logically speaking, a strong man in this realm tends to have a calm mind, and his eyes are not in the secular world, and he would not do those bloody things such as torture to extract confessions, murder, and house raids, but Zhou Tong is a strange person. His interest even said that his life ambition has never been in practice, but in these things.

It is impossible for such a person to be mobilized by the Tianhai family. If he is really waiting outside the Mausoleum of Tianshu to attack Chen Changsheng, it must be the meaning of the Holy Empress. Tianhai Shengxue thought about it silently, and suddenly felt that something was wrong. She thought that with the natural and unrestrained demeanor of the Holy Empress, even if she wanted to deal with Chen Changsheng and the countercurrent represented by Chen Changsheng, she should wait until he came from the Zhou Garden. Right after returning.

Thinking of this, he raised his head, looked at King Chen Liu with a slight frown, and thought to himself, what are you trying to do by deliberately advancing the timing of Zhou Tong's action

The aftermath of the Great Imperial Examination has not yet dissipated. I don’t know how many forces in the capital are watching the Tianshu Mausoleum. There are also countless people in the streets, alleys, inns and restaurants. Performance, especially Chen Changsheng. But no one thought that in Tianshu Mausoleum, for some reason, the disciples of Orthodox Academy and Lishan Sword Sect would live under the same roof, and Chen Changsheng and Gou Hanshi would come to view the stele together. Just like the examinees around the stele hut, they didn't expect that after Senior Ji Jin said those words, Chen Changsheng and Gou Hanshi did not show any humility to be taught, nor did they admit their mistakes.

The stele house was a little gloomy in the night, and the atmosphere in the venue was a little tense. The young ascetics didn't know what to say. The anger on the faces of Zhong Hui and the other two Huaiyuan scholars grew stronger. Ji Jin His expression was as cold as ice. At this moment, Chen Changsheng broke the silence and said something that no one thought of.

He looked at Ji Jin and said, "Senior, you are wrong."

There was an uproar around the monument. A fifteen-year-old boy actually pointed at a stele attendant who had been watching the stele in the Mausoleum of Books for more than fifteen years. His understanding of the stele was wrong! Even if he is the number one in this year's imperial examination, but as mentioned earlier, every year there will be a first place in the imperial examination in Tianshu Mausoleum. Here, how can he compare with Ji Jin

What happened next shocked the people watching the stele even more, because after a moment of silence, Gou Hanshi also said to Ji Jin: "Senior, you are indeed wrong."

The night was dark, and although there were stars falling, it was still a bit difficult to see the complicated lines on the stele. At some point before, someone quietly lit an oil lamp on a tree outside the hut, and the dim light mixed with the starlight , fell on the young faces of Chen Changsheng and Gou Hanshi, calm and determined.

They knew that what Ji Jin said before was actually very reasonable. The so-called "everything is inseparable from its origin". The common schools of monument interpretation in the world can't escape from the three most mainstream and most popular styles of taking shape, meaning and momentum. The authentic way of interpreting monuments, but they have read Dao Zang thoroughly, and they have just read Xun Mei's notes before, which strengthened their confidence in creating a new road.

"Before the Tianshu Monument, there are no certain laws and regulations."

Gou Hanshi looked at the young examinees surrounding him and said, "That's right, the routines for interpreting monuments that we can instantly recall are all variations of the three mainstream solutions, but it must not be the case. Ten thousand methods of interpreting monuments have already been solved. The predecessors figured it out, if we think this way, how can we surpass the predecessors?"

In Lishan Sword Sect, he often played the role of teacher before his fellow juniors, so he said these words very naturally.

Hearing these words, Ji Jin's face became more and more gloomy. He felt that this was a strong provocation from the junior, and said in a cold voice: "As expected, the younger generation is becoming more and more arrogant, trying to surpass the former sages at every turn, just like the one who can only draw. Just like A’s lunatic, but don’t forget, being as arrogant as him is nothing more than a madman’s fate in the end!”

"Cultivating the Tao only depends on the virtuous and the foolish, regardless of priority."

Gou Hanshi looked at him and said calmly, "If future generations don't even have the courage to surpass their predecessors, how can each generation be better than the previous generation?"

Ji Jin received a message from his teacher, and he had extremely contempt and hatred for Chen Changsheng, so from early morning to late at night, he uttered words to suppress and humiliate Chen Changsheng twice, but he never expected that Gou Hanshi would come to argue with him. Although Huaiyuan has deep roots in the south, it is still not as good as the Lishan Sword Sect, the No. 1 sect of the Longevity Sect. He did not want to confront Gou Hanshi, but at this moment, he was burning with anger and being watched by so many juniors. Still caring about those things, he reprimanded sharply: "The way of the heavenly book is between the inscriptions. You have only been in the mausoleum for two days, what kind of way do you know? What principles can you cultivate? Do you have to go astray?"

Chen Changsheng said: "Wanxi has different scenery, but they all end up in the same sea."

Ji Jin stared into his eyes, and said with a cold expression: "I heard that you once passed through the secluded world during the Great Court Examination, shaking the entire capital. You must also call yourself a clear stream, but don't forget, many streams look at you. The amount of water is extremely abundant, and it dried up in the wilderness within a few days after leaving the mountain, how can you escape such a fate!"

At this point in the debate, the hostility has become an undisguised target, even a curse. The people around the monument turned pale when they heard the words, and the oil lamp hanging on the branch seemed to be dimmed for a few minutes.

Hearing these words, Chen Changsheng couldn't help shaking his head and said: "I heard that senior was a famous southern talent back then, and he was willing to enter the Mausoleum of Heavenly Books to serve his whole life, which is even more admirable. I didn't expect senior to be such a person. Come to threaten and intimidate, there is no trace of the style of the past."

He was not laughing at each other with Ji Jin, but he really thought so, and the look of his speech was naturally a little bit disappointed. In the eyes of everyone, it was a deeper mockery of Ji Jin.

Ji Jin was furious when he heard the words, pointed at him and shouted: "If you want to reason, I will come to reason with you. From ancient times to the present, among the countless interpretations of the Qingbei, which one is out of the right way? Who can not take form, Did you untie this monument without taking intentions or power? Is it Zhou Dufu or His Majesty Taizong? Is it the previous saintess or the Pope, or is it someone from Lishansu or the dean of your Orthodox Academy?"

His speech speed became faster and faster, and when he mentioned those famous and important figures, he rushed over like a storm, with his head covered and his face covered. The last two elders named Gou Hanshi and Chen Changsheng, Especially when he mentioned the dean of the Orthodox Academy at the end, he even hinted at it vaguely.

There was silence around the stele hut. Gou Hanshi and Chen Changsheng were silent. No one knew the details of how these legendary figures mentioned by Ji Jin deciphered the Tianshu stele back then. The most traditional, that is, the most orthodox solution, Zhou Dufu explained the stele at a glance back then, and mentioned it when chatting with Taizong afterwards, using a clever method with both form and meaning, but it is still within this range.

Just when everyone thought that Gou Hanshi and Chen Changsheng had nothing to say in the face of these hard facts, Chen Changsheng spoke again.

The oil lamp hanging on the branch was gently blown by the night wind, and the light kept shaking, and it was reflected in his eyes, as if there were stars shining.

"One thousand one hundred and sixty-one years ago, His Majesty Taizong came to the capital from Tianliang County to view the monuments. Wei Guogong, who was still a secretary of the county government at that time, followed him into the mausoleum. His Majesty Taizong took a day to see three steles. Wei Guogong But it was not until two months later that he finally understood the stele of Zhaoqing. Of course, everyone knew that Wei Guogong would not be able to practice. Logically speaking, it was impossible for him to understand the stele of the Book of Heaven. So His Majesty Taizong never laughed at him , On the contrary, he was very surprised how he deciphered the stele, and asked Wei Guogong what he saw on this shining stele. Wei Guogong said that he did not see the flow of true energy, traces of spiritual consciousness, and did not see any sword moves... "

Chen Changsheng pointed to the silent stone tablet in the stele room, and told a long-ago story that had long been forgotten. Everyone's eyes, including Ji Jin's, followed and fell on the inscription on the stone tablet. They wanted to know what Wei Guogong saw back then. Is there really any possibility other than the three solutions

"What he saw were straight lines that were forcibly distorted. He saw the pain and helplessness of those once straight lines that were forcibly distorted by external forces. He saw the straight power hidden in those twists and turns. In his In my eyes, these lines on the Zhaoqing stele have nothing to do with practice, they are higher than practice, these lines are laws and rules."

There was silence in front of the stele hut, only Chen Changsheng's voice could be heard.

"Wei Guogong used this to explain the Tianshu stele."
