Central Plains, Dayan Dynasty.
Luzhou, a stretch of green mountains.
Wang Tianwen stands at the top of a Qianzhang peak, looking into the distance.
In order to find Lu Xi''s cave, Wang Tianwen inquired about Lu Xi everywhere. The more he knew Lu Xi, the more he admired him.
Lu Xi''s reputation in the field of cultivating immortals is not high. He seldom attends the parties of cultivating immortals, and his reputation is not obvious. However, he cherishes mortals and does a lot of good deeds for the country and the people, but he does not leave his name, and his achievements are all occupied by local officials. However, the people who have received his favor have been passed on from mouth to mouth and established temples to worship Lu Xi.
In the seventh year of Zhengde of Dayan, there were zombies in Chenjia village of Qingzhou, harming thousands of people. Lu Xi killed demons and saved people.
In the 35th year of the Zhengde reign of Dayan, there was a disturbance in the Qinglong river of Youzhou, which engulfed tens of thousands of people,.
In the 47th year of Xuantong and the 10th year of Yuzhou''s severe drought, the people were in dire need of living, and there was no smoke in Yuzhou. Lu Xi went deep into the old nest of the drought, killed the drought, applied rain to resolve the disaster, and cured millions of victims.
······
these things come from the records of the people and individual monks. However, in the official records of the Dayan Dynasty, there is no Lu Xi. It seems that some people deliberately erase his existence. In other words, Lu Xi is not greedy for fame and wealth, so few people know his existence.
Wang Tianwen admired Lu Xi''s personality, his country and people, and his deep achievements and fame.
In recent years, he went all over the Dayan Dynasty and went to many places, but he didn''t find Lu Xi''s Zuohua cave. Now this place is the last one.
According to a love poem written by Lu Xi himself, Wang Tianwen spent a lot of experience to find out this place.
Wang Tianwen''s weapon flew to the distance. Before long, he landed outside a plum blossom forest, and the air was filled with a faint fragrance of flowers.
Lu Xi is the head of the eight sages in Meishan. He loved plum blossom and painted many plum blossoms.
Wang Tianwen took a deep breath and walked into the plum blossom forest.
The plum blossom forest is very big. Wang Tianwen has been walking all day and night, but he has not been able to go out. In fact, he touched the ban.
Wang Tianwen was blind to the surrounding situation and went on.
It''s been a year since he left.
Wang Tianwen''s eyes were firm. He arched his hand and said, "Master Lu, junior Wang Tianwen, I admire you. I''ve come to see you specially. If you have any trouble, please don''t blame me."
With these words, he continued to walk forward. All he felt was a flower in front of his eyes. He suddenly appeared in a valley full of birds and flowers. There was a blue stone pavilion not far away. A white faced middle-aged Confucian sat in the stone pavilion, and a chessboard was placed on the stone table.
When Wang Tianwen saw the middle-aged Confucian, his pupils shrank. It was Lu Xi who was the middle-aged Confucian. Is he still alive? No, he found that the other side was just a shadow, not a substance.
Wang Tianwen stepped forward quickly, bowed himself and said, "Dear Wang Tianwen, I''d like to meet Mr. Lu."
"What are you doing here? Are you really just seeing me? No other purpose? "
Lu Xi looked at Wang Tianwen with an indifferent look.
Wang Tianwen hesitated for a moment and said, "I will tell you that the younger generation came for your inheritance. The elder generation is for the country and the people, and the inheritance should not be cut off."
"You don''t hide it. What about serving the country and the people? I''m not sitting here. Go back and forth from where you are! I won''t leave my legacy to anyone. " Lu Xi mouth up a touch of ridicule, coldly said.
"Master Lu, I''ve been visiting the people of Dayan these years. The local people still remember your kindness. They haven''t forgotten you for thousands of years. What you have learned should not be buried in the Loess with you. I''m willing to inherit what you have learned, correct your name and serve the country and the people. Those who are good for you should be known all over the world. Evil spirits should be despised."
Wang Tianwen is upright and has firm eyes.
"The world knows? What a big tone. Why do you think so? "
Wang Tianwen stepped forward and said seriously: "with a sense of righteousness, people are doing things, and the sky is watching. You live in seclusion in the mountains and ignore the darkness of the world. Ghosts and monsters come on the stage and act. It''s not the common people who suffer?"
Lu Xi was silent for a while, and asked, "you are practicing Confucianism! What do you think is Confucianism? What is immortal? What is the relationship between the two? "
"Like the word" immortal ", Confucianism has its own character. To cultivate immortals, we should be human beings first. We should read books, understand truth and distinguish right from wrong. Confucianism is the immortal who understands truth, but immortals are not Confucians. In the eyes of ordinary people, you and your younger generation are both immortals. In fact, we are just stronger people."
Lu Xi''s eyes flashed with surprise. He looked up and down at Wang Tianwen and asked, "if you are successful in your cultivation, what do you want to do most?"
"Protect the people, protect the family."
"Guardian family? Ridiculous. You only have a small family in your eyes. There is no everyone at all. "
Wang Tianwen shook his head and said: "without a small family, where is everyone? If the younger generation does not care for their own family, they will be ungrateful. If the younger generation is such a person, will they love those strangers who are not related by blood? Innumerable small families make up everyone, and everyone protects the small family. "Lu Xi was silent. After half a sound, he said, "I''ll play a game of chess with you. If you win, my inheritance is yours."
Wang Tianwen relaxed and bowed to the stone pavilion to play chess with Lu Xi.
Wang Tianwen''s chess skill is not high, but he was surprised to find that Lu Xi''s chess skill is worse, or Lu Xi let him.
After a cup of tea, Lu Xi lost his chess piece and sighed, "I lost. I''ll give it to you."
"Master, are you deliberately losing to me?"
Wang Tianwen said carefully.
Lu Xi looked back and said, "I only lost three times in my life. The first time, I lost to fame. The second time, I lost to power. The last time, I lost to you. Don''t forget the original intention. Remember what you said just now. Countless small families make up everyone. Big families protect small families. You don''t need to correct my name. If you have a chance, go to Lu for me Wang Fu, find a son of the royal family named Kong Yulian and give her this painting. She should be gone too. Say sorry for me. "
He took out a blue scroll and handed it to Wang Tianwen.
"Master, I will help you to fulfill your wish, junior ····"
before Wang Tianwen finished his words, he suddenly saw a flower in front of him. He suddenly appeared in the plum blossom forest. There was a blue scroll on the ground not far away, and there was a blue storage bag beside the scroll.
Wang Tianwen knelt down, heavily kowtowed his head three times, and said, "Master Lu, I will remember your teaching."
He took a deep breath, put away the blue scroll and the blue storage bag, and left here.
