The old man smiled and asked: "Why do you have to go so far if you want to learn martial arts? It is said that Shaolin monks are all very skilled in martial arts. Why don't you go to Songshan Shaolin Temple?"
Da Kui knew that this old man was a good man and did not hide it. He told the truth: "I met Tang and Brother Tang, the general of the Red Scarf Army in Jeju. He asked me to go to Feiyun Temple in Tiantai Mountain to find his uncle, the Taoist Infatuator."
"Study skills. That's why I traveled thousands of miles to learn from you." After a pause, Dakui asked: "Old man, I still don't know your last name."
The old man smiled and said: "My surname is Liu Guangde. I am sixty-two this year. My wife is three years older than me, and her husband's surname is Li."
Dakui stood up and knelt on the ground: "I, Zhang Dakui, will remember Uncle Liu's life-saving grace for the rest of my life." After saying this, he wanted to kowtow.
Old man Liu hurriedly stretched out his hand to pull Dakui up: "Child, what are you doing? Get up, get up!" He pulled Dakui up and pressed him on the stool and said: "We are not far from Tiantai Mountain now, so don't be in a hurry.
, you might as well stay here for a few more days so that you can take care of yourself."
Dakui said: "I appreciate Uncle Liu's kindness. I'm not in trouble, so I'll leave now." After saying that, he stood up, picked up the baggage on the bedside and went out to leave.
Seeing that he couldn't keep it, Old Man Liu called his wife, wrapped a few more cakes in cloth and stuffed them into Da Kui's hand, saying, "Leave these cakes on the road to eat. Be careful along the way." Da Kui couldn't bear it any longer.
He took a few steps back and knelt on the ground. He kowtowed three times to the two kind-hearted old men. Then he stood up with a strong heart, turned around and left.
Old Man Liu's voice came from behind: "My son, come back if you have any difficulties." Da Kui heard this, and tears were already streaming down his face.
Dakui continued walking south, asking questions about everyone he met along the way. After another three days, he finally arrived in Taizhou. Seeing the towering green mountains in the distance, Dakui felt extremely happy.
There happened to be a tea stall on the roadside. Da Kui walked up and asked the boss: "Brother, please ask me something. How to get to Feiyun Temple on Tiantai Mountain?" The boss said: "There is indeed a Taoist temple on Tiantai Mountain, but it is not called Feiyun.
Observation is called Qingxu Observation."
Dakui was stunned for a moment and thought: "Since there is a Taoist temple, you might as well ask about it when you get there." Then he asked again: "Brother, how to get to Qingxu Temple?" The boss pointed south: "Go straight along this road for more than twenty years.
There, there is a road going up the mountain to the southwest at the fork in the road. Just go straight." Dakui hurriedly thanked him and took the road south quickly.
Tiantai Mountain lies hundreds of miles from east to west, connecting Danqiu to the east, Qing'an to the west, Xianju to the south, and Yandong to the north. Because the mountain has eight layers, the four sides are the same, with the top facing the three stars, it is divided into a cow and a girl.
Taisu, hence the name Tiantai Mountain. And because eminent monks and Taoists have practiced here in the past dynasties, Tiantai Mountain is also known as the source of Buddhism.
When Dakui arrived at the bottom of the mountain, he looked up and said, "My mother, this mountain is so beautiful." Dakui sighed as he climbed the mountain. There were countless beautiful scenery along the way. When he reached the middle of the mountain, he looked up at the top of the mountain. There was a Taoist temple among the lush green eaves and pavilions. Wait.
By the time Dakui arrived in front of the mountain gate, he was already covered in sweat.
A handsome Taoist boy was cleaning the fallen leaves on the steps in front of the door. Dakui walked over in three steps and asked: "Little master, is this the Feiyun Temple?"
The Taoist boy smiled and said: "This is Qingxu Temple, don't you recognize the characters?" Dakui looked up and saw that there were indeed three big characters under the gate tower. Unfortunately, Dakui had not read and did not recognize them.
Dakui asked again: "Is there a Feiyun Temple on Tiantai Mountain?"
The Taoist boy said, "I've never heard of it."
Da Kui was dumbfounded and thought, 'How could Brother Tang lie to me?'. The little Taoist boy looked at him and saw that he was only eleven or twelve years old, and thought to himself: 'How could he know that Tiantai Mountain is so big?'
Dakui rushed in with a glimmer of hope. When the Taoist boy saw it, he stretched out his hand to stop him. "Why are you like this? You can't break in here." Dakui said: "You don't know Feiyun Temple, I'll go find someone else to ask." The two of them said.
People were arguing in front of the door.
A majestic voice came from inside the door: "Who is trespassing?" A middle-aged Taoist priest walked out of the mountain gate and blocked the way. The Taoist boy quickly complained: "Master, what Feiyun Temple is this person looking for? I don't know.
He just broke in."
When the middle-aged Taoist priest saw Dakui in ragged clothes and with yellow face and thin skin, he couldn't help but ask: "May I ask where the donor came from?".
Dakui said: "I am from Jeju, Shandong Province, and I am studying with the Taoist Master Chixin."
The middle-aged Taoist priest said: "I'm afraid the donor made a mistake. There is no Feiyun Temple you mentioned within a few hundred miles of Tiantai Mountain, let alone the infatuated Taoist friend you mentioned."
Da Kui argued: "I have a letter from Brother Tang here. He asked me to come."
The middle-aged Taoist priest smiled when he heard this and said, "Bring the letter to me to read."
Dakui took out the soup and the letter from his arms and handed it to the middle-aged Taoist priest. The middle-aged Taoist priest took the letter, unfolded it, looked at it, and then handed it to the Taoist boy and said, "Disciple, come and read it to him."
"Yes, Master." The Taoist boy took the letter and read it aloud: "Brother Dakui knows each other's words. Although you and I met by chance, after two days together, I know that my brother is a loyal, benevolent and filial person. My brother originally wanted to follow me.
However, I think that Gaotang is still alive and well in my brother's family. Brother Kuang is still young and has a straightforward nature. The military is not the best destination for my brother. I hope that my brother will consider his mother at home and not create any problems! Brother Tang Dingchen advises."
When Dakui heard this, he was like thunder. He murmured to himself: "No, Brother Tang will not lie to me." Dakui was dazed for a while, then suddenly turned around and ran away. The middle-aged Taoist could not stop him.
Da Kui fully hoped that he would be able to study under the teacher at Tiantai Mountain, but he didn't expect that everything would be in vain. Disappointed and sad, with mixed feelings, he panicked and ran down the mountain without choosing a way. As he ran, he cried and screamed: "Brother Tang, why did you lie to me?"
, Why? Ah~~!" At this time, Dakui was already acting crazy, and he just ran all over the mountain. Unexpectedly, he tripped over a thorn under his feet and fell to the ground.
Da Kui lay on the ground crying bitterly, holding on to the thorns and weeds on the ground with both hands. No matter how painful the wooden thorns on the thorns were pricking into his hands, the pain in his heart at this moment was far worse than the pain in his hands. He didn't believe it.
He came thousands of miles away, but what he got in exchange was a piece of lies and deception. In Dakui's heart, Tang He was a great hero, but how could a great hero lie?
Dakui lay on the ground and cried for a long time. When he was hoarse and his tears had dried up, Dakui got up and ran again. Unknowingly, he ran to the bottom of a cliff and there was no way to go. Here he was surrounded by mountains.
of valley.
Hearing the sound of rumbling water in the distance, I didn't know what Dakui was thinking, but he ran away after the sound of the water. Turning around the foot of the mountain, a scene appeared in front of him; looking at the dangerous peaks thousands of meters high, auspicious clouds and mist lingered among them, and a waterfall was like a curtain of water reaching the sky.
The Milky Way flows down like a waterfall with a shocking momentum.
A large lake with a radius of several miles is naturally formed under the waterfall. The water is clear and vast. From time to time, a few water birds can be seen flying over it. But there is a man wearing a bamboo hat and holding a fishing rod, fishing leisurely by the blue lake with mountains and mountains. Such a scene.
It’s so beautiful, could it be the paradise of Yaochi?
At this time, Da Kui no longer had the intention to appreciate it. He felt so sad and wronged in every possible way. He had no money on his body, and how could he have the face to see his mother again after failing in his studies. Thinking of this, Da Kui rushed towards the lake.
