The first Taoist priest of the Tang Dynasty

Although it was just some fish and hares, the family hadn't tasted meat in the past year. For Ah Cai, not everyone could understand the pain in his heart.

For a man missing an arm, it is extremely heavy for him to take care of the family and raise three children to grow up.

Now, Zhong Wen's sympathy overflowed for a while, and he gave his family a basket of fish and two hares. Although the gift is light, the affection is heavy.

"Thank you."

This is a silent thank you, there is no sound, no shout out, some are full of tears and gratitude on the face.

Zhong Mugen just patted Ah Cai's shoulder, and Xiu Ye just patted the heads of a few babies.

"Brother Ah Cai, go back and make some for the little ones to eat. It's getting late, so don't freeze them, go back quickly."

Zhong Mugen called Ah Cai and the others to hurry home and make some dinner for the three little children in the family. Even if there was only some porridge or some fish porridge, it was better than the cold air blowing on the three frail little ones. baby.

Ah Cai took Ershui and his three brothers and sisters and turned to leave. After walking a few steps, he turned around again and bowed deeply to Zhong Mugen and the others before going home.

Zhong Mugen, his wife, and Xiaohua stood in front of the open space, watching Ah Cai's family go back, thinking that two years ago, their family was basically the same as Ah Cai's family, and sighed heavily in their hearts.

Now, life at home is better, but I have always adhered to the idea of ​​living a good life at home, and I have never helped anyone, and I began to blame myself in my heart.

After Ah Cai and the others returned home, they carried the basket and hares to the pool not far away, and began to process the fish.

"Father, I want to eat hares."

Ah Hui kept staring at the two hares with her eyes, never leaving her for a moment.

"Okay, today dad will make you some hare meat."

Ah Cai looked at the three little children, and felt sad in his heart. The family hadn't tasted meat for nearly a year, and these children were suffering.

In the eyes of the three little babies, besides longing for meat, there is gradually a glimmer of hope for life.

For dinner, Ah Cai really made half a wild vegetable porridge with rabbit meat, but wild vegetables took up more than half of it.

But seeing the three little ones eating porridge with wild vegetables and rabbit meat, I felt very sad.

Since my wife left, the family has become more and more difficult. I always feel that I can't stand up to this family by myself, but every time I see my three little children, a fighting spirit surges from the bottom of my heart. Yijin gritted his teeth and persisted.

And in these days, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and persevere.

Fortunately, Ershui has grown up gradually, and he can also help with some work, which can be regarded as reducing some of his burdens. At least Ershui can also help with things that he can't do by himself.

Father and son, whether at work or at home, are inseparable.

Ershui wanted to help his father and do some work that his father could not do alone, so he never took a step away from his father.

Life is difficult for their family, but everything needs to be persisted and survived.

As long as Ershui and Ermei grow up, it will be much easier.

For several days in a row, Zhong Wen would go fishing with his younger sister and second younger sister by the small river every day. Each time, there was basically a basket of about twenty fish.

For Zhong Wen's family, these can only be said to be icing on the cake, but for the second sister's family, this fish is meat, a fish that can fill the stomach, and also a fish that can increase nutrition.

After a few days, the kitchen of the second sister's house was covered with dried fish. The family always looked at the dried fish in the kitchen with joy and felt grateful.

"Little sister, second sister, I won't help you fish in the future, you can fish by yourself."

After Zhong Wen caught the last fish, he told the little sisters that it was impossible for Zhong Wen himself to help with fishing every day, and he still had some things to do.

For Zhong Wen, fishing is just to help the second sister's family, and his kitchen is already full of rabbits and dried fish.

"Okay bro, we'll fish ourselves."

"Thank you, Brother Xiaowen."

Xiao Hua doesn't have too many opinions on Zhong Wen's words. She fishes just to pass the time, and she can't catch a few fish when she fishes, while the second sister is completely for the stomach. The two have completely different ideas, but But have the same experience.

Zhong Wen, who returned to the temple, took the scriptures in his hand and started to read after having breakfast.

The scriptures are boring, which is Zhong Wen's meaning, but there are no other books to read here except the scriptures.

Of course, it's just that Zhong Wen didn't know that's all, but in the room next to Li Daoling's residence, there are many books stored. Legend Miscellaneous Notes, and even many other books.

If Zhong Wen knew, he would definitely take a look, even if he broke the lock, he would go in and find some books to read.

It's a pity that Zhong Wen is like a fool every day. Apart from reading scriptures, he is practicing kung fu to build a foundation.

Every day, Chen Yu would also come to talk to Zhong Wen.

Talking about some things about Chen Feng, his mind was full of worries and worries.

On the other hand, Zhong Wen seemed to not have that much concern about Li Daoling's departure.

They are all adults, what else can they do? She is not a beautiful girl, and she has to worry about being molested when she goes out.

Furthermore, Li Daoling and Chen Feng, their skills are not weak, if they really encounter some kind of robbery, it is estimated that a few punches will knock them down.

Although Zhong Wen hadn't seen how skilled his cheap master was, but listening to Chen Feng's words, he was superior to him.

Apart from being limping, his skills should still be there, so Zhong Wen wasn't really worried.

Now it's the year of Zhenguan, and it's not a period of war, and he may be involved in the war at any time. If this is the case, he may be more or less worried.

After reading the scriptures, Zhong Wen started to stand against the sun every day.

Fortunately, since these days, Zhong Wen's foundation can be regarded as established, and he can persist for two or three hours.

When Zhong Wen was standing, on the path back to Longquan Village, two figures were supporting each other, as if they had suffered a lot of injuries.

"Monastery, slow down, don't rush."

The two people who came were Li Daoling and Chen Feng.

The two of them did suffer from different injuries, Li Daoling was the most injured, his abdomen was wrapped in a large piece of cloth, and there was a lot of blood on the outside.

"There's no rush, I have to go back to the observation room quickly, I can also treat the wound, and all the wound medicine I brought is lost."

Although Li Daoling was being supported by Chen Feng, the injuries on his body did not affect his speech, and he still looked very angry.

Chapter 57 Be stunned again

"By the way, Chen Feng, you said that he learned to read nine poems in three months? And he can recite those books backwards? Is this true?"

While walking, Li Daoling suddenly remembered that after meeting Chen Feng a few days ago, Chen Feng told him about Jiusong.

"Monastery Lord, I really have to admire this disciple you accepted. He can read and write. That's really amazing. In three months, he has learned all of Chen Yuhui. I also checked it. It's true. Listen to the nine songs It is said that his memory is superb and he has the ability of photographic memory, otherwise, he would not be able to learn so fast."

Chen Feng supported Li Daoling with one hand, and happily told Li Daoling what happened at that time.

"Okay, okay, I used to go out to look for disciples as an old Taoist, but I didn't expect that my disciples were right in front of me. It seems that I am really old."

After Li Daoling heard this, he was overjoyed, although he was very annoyed at the matter of going out to search for his disciples before, but fortunately it is not too late now, with this disciple, are you afraid that the affairs of the master will not be able to go through?

It has been nearly nine months since I left the temple, and I was very excited when I heard what Chen Feng said.

Although he didn't do a good job during this trip, he also suffered a lot of injuries, and he probably won't be able to travel far again in the future.

As for what he had in mind, he probably had to rely on this disciple to complete it.

As for what was in Li Daoling's mind, no one knew, even Chen Feng didn't know what Li Daoling's matter was, but he could vaguely guess something, it's just that it's not easy to say.

"Guanzhu, half a year ago, I started to teach Jiushou how to stand up and lay the foundation. I dare not teach him the rest. I can only wait for you to go back and then train him. In the past six months, Jiushou's foundation has also been laid. Very good, and he is also very hardworking.”

Chen Feng continued to talk about Zhong Wen's affairs to Li Daoling, and he did not forget to introduce some trivial matters in the temple.

"Well, you did the right thing. Jiu Shou's talent is excellent, but you can't teach him casually. After we go back, I have to think about how to teach him."

Li Daoling admired Chen Feng's actions, as for what kind of training Zhong Wen will accept in the future, it is temporarily unknown.

"Guanzhu, can you tell me who are the people who are chasing us this time? It's not the best skill, but there are quite a lot of people."

Chen Feng stopped talking about Zhong Wen, and started to inquire about the people who chased them a few days ago.

"Chen Feng, it's inconvenient for you to know about this. When Jiu Shou grows up, let him do these things. I don't know how many years I can live with my body."

Li Daoling would not tell Chen Feng the reason, this is a matter of the teacher's school, it has nothing to do with Longquan Temple, and this matter must be done by the people of the teacher's school.

It's just a pity that Li Daoling is the only one in the entire sect, plus a new disciple, it will take many years to do this well.

I don’t know how many years it will take until Zhong Wen grows up and becomes a teacher. It will take at least five or six years. Of course, this is Li Daoling’s estimate, because with the talent of the disciple he has received, five or six years will be enough. He can definitely become a master similar to him.

Perhaps, Li Daoling underestimated his new disciple, but also underestimated Zhong Wen.

"Monastery Master, do you want to rest for a while, we will definitely be able to return to the temple today, let's rest for a while, otherwise the blood will keep flowing, it's not a solution."

Chen Feng looked at the blood in Li Daoling's abdomen, and it started to flow out again, worried that Li Daoling's body would not be able to bear it if he went on like this.

"It's okay, let's go on, this little blood is fine."

Li Daoling just wants to rush back to Longquan Temple as soon as possible. Only when he returns to Longquan Temple can his heart be at ease, because that is where he lives and where he grew up. There are memories of his life there, and it is also his. The location of the division gate.

Chen Feng didn't understand Li Daoling's stubbornness, but as long as Li Daoling said nothing was wrong, he would act according to his words, continued to support Li Daoling, and walked slowly towards the front of the path. Although there were not many injuries on Chen Feng's body, most of them were caused by sword wounds. The injury has already stopped the bleeding, so there is no serious problem at present.

At this time, Zhong Wen in Longquan Temple was standing quietly under the sun with his eyes closed. He didn't know that his cheap master was seriously injured again.

At this time, Zhong Wen fell into his world again.

Even if he is standing under the sun at this time, for Zhong Wen, these don't seem to affect him from falling into his own world.

The two Taoisms in my mind are all spread out in front of my eyes, these are the two Taoisms that have been recombined.

But Zhong Wen has never been able to read it through, or even failed to read it.

In addition to not understanding, it is always elusive, or it seems to be suddenly interrupted.

Zhong Wen always wanted to decompose and recombine these two Daoist essays, but it was very difficult.

No one can ask, and no one can teach him how to do it, which makes Zhong Wen very confused.

After reorganizing over and over again, even if you add words with your own meaning later, you can't read through the combination.

The sun slanted to the west, and then, when it reached the top of the mountain, it gradually began to sink.

Yu Li in the dining room didn't see Jiu Shou coming to eat, and felt strange, so she called Chen Yu to look for it.

Chen Yu then came to the small open space behind, but found that Jiu Shou was still standing there.

After shouting a few times, Jiushou was not awakened. Curious, I wanted to go over and push Jiushou, but I heard from my father that Jiushou's various talents are extremely good. After entering the meditation and enlightenment, he immediately stopped and turned to call other Taoists to come over.

When Chen Yu called other Taoists to come over, those Taoists immediately began to gather not far from Jiushou, carefully dealing with any possibility of disturbing Jiushou's epiphany.

Even Chen Yu was yelled to leave, and Chen Yu was amazed that a person could reach such a state while practicing Kung Fu stance, and it was incredible in his heart, after all, he only learned Chen Feng's It's just fists and kicks. I can't understand this matter at all.

The sun went down, and at this moment, Chen Feng supported Li Daoling, and finally returned to the temple.

Chen Feng yelled a few times, but he didn't see any Taoist coming over, and it was his son Chen Yu trotting over.

Fortunately, it was getting dark, and Chen Yu didn't see the severity of the injuries on the two of them, but he also knew that Li Daoling must have been injured again.

"Yu'er, what about the others?"

After Chen Feng yelled a few times just now, he didn't see his fellow disciples coming over, and felt strange, logically speaking, as long as he yelled a few words, some people would always come, but today it seemed that something strange happened.

"Father, Guanzhu, the others are in the back space. Jiushou seems to have fallen into the epiphany that my father said last time. I didn't even eat dinner."

Chen Yu reported the truth, and walked to the back of the hall, preparing to light the oil lamps.

"What? Epiphany again? This... this..."

After hearing this, Li Daoling was shocked. Epiphany does not mean that there is something, and it does not happen once in a few years. But now, he was surprised and delighted when he heard Chen Yu say that Jiushou fell into epiphany again.

Chapter 58 Conversation between Master and Apprentice

"Chen Feng, help me over there."

The excitement in Li Daoling's heart could no longer be described in words, it was all written on his face.

Chen Feng supported Li Daoling, and hurriedly walked to the back, and Chen Yu followed, also curious about the matter of Jiushou.

When Li Daoling and the others came to the open space not far behind, a few Taoists were scattered around, carefully guarding. Seeing that Li Daoling was helped by Chen Feng, although he was happy in his heart, he didn't make any sound, just After taking a look, they continued their vigilance.

Li Daoling and the others didn't speak, they just stood quietly not far away, staring at Zhong Wen in the middle of the open space.

Li Daoling knew in his heart that this was another opportunity, but at this moment, he wanted to know how long it took Zhong Wen to realize his epiphany from the beginning to the present, and whether it was more than two hours.

But Li Daoling didn't know who to ask questions at this time. He was afraid of disturbing Zhong Wen, so he could only hold back the words in his heart and ask Zhong Wen after he had a sudden awakening.

Chen Feng wanted to help Li Daoling go back to treat the wound, but Li Daoling was worried and stared at Zhong Wen, not even thinking about treating the wound.

Chen Feng had no choice but to go back, brought some medicine and bandages, and helped Li Daoling start to treat the wound. As for the wound on his body, he didn't care much.

Zhong Wen in the field had been calculating the two essays in his mind, and when there was a glimmer of hope, it suddenly collapsed.
