"Giving me something?" Meng Xinghe was a little confused. Why do people in the Tang Dynasty like to give things to others?
Mother Meng stepped forward and gave Meng Xinghe a yellow cloth bag with a Tai Chi pattern drawn on the outside. It was a little heavy inside and I didn't know what was packed inside.
"Meng'er, thanks to the Taoist priest's spell last night, you were able to come back to life. Originally, my mother planned to hold a banquet to reward the Taoist priest tonight, but she knew that when Xiao Wu went over to invite him, the Taoist priest had already gone out to travel, and the Taoist boy at his home was handed over to him.
Xiao Wu gave me a cloth bag and said: It must be handed over to your young master to avoid future disasters."
Feudal superstition is really harmful to people. Meng Xinghe is an atheist. What a bullshit Taoist priest. He must have a guilty conscience. He is afraid that this young master will reveal his true identity, so he refuses to go to the banquet. I want to see if it can hold the sky inside.
. Gently weighing the bag in his hand, Meng Xinghe smiled and said: Mom! I'm going upstairs first!"
"Go! Come down early for dinner!" Meng's mother was always so kind. She was very relieved to see that her son had recovered from his illness and became more sensible.
He returned to his room and found some clean clothes to change into. At the same time, he put the two things given by the Chang'an scholar Mu Zijia in a box specially used for his study.
After packing these two things, Meng Xinghe shook the yellow cloth bag and said, "It can't be a paper man, a silver needle or other poison tools!"
After a few moves with the dragon-catching hand, Meng Xinghe violently tore open the bag.
"Uh! There's a letter!" When he opened the bag, he saw a letter. There was no withdrawal of money on it, and he didn't know what it was written on. "This old man kept it so mysterious. Could it be that it was an apology letter? I was too embarrassed to come to the door in person and secretly secretly
Confession."
"Tear", with a little doubt, Meng Xinghe calmly read the contents of the letter.
"Like a dream, like a dream, not a dream. The king dies, the king lives, the king meets."
The beginning was so mysterious that Meng Xinghe secretly wiped a cold sweat. Fortunately, he took classical Chinese as an elective in college and could barely understand the meaning. Then, the words in the letter became more and more dark, what, heaven, earth, mystery, yellow, eternal life
Sentences such as the door, the five elements and the eight trigrams, the alternation of yin and yang, etc., feel like reading "The Theory of Relativity", which is not ordinary difficult.
"This old man, it's so difficult to understand even a letter. It's so long. You should be writing a graduation thesis!" After reading more than half of it, his mind went blank and he didn't understand what the letter meant. Meng Xinghe simply jumped.
Just watch and you will go directly to the end.
"Ashes return to ashes, soil returns to earth, although the body is a human being and the soul is a guest, the hometown is a foreign land, and life and death are not on the road to hell!" This sentence is a bit bluffing, Meng Xinghe has never been so shocked as he is now. According to the words
What does it mean, does this old Taoist know that I came from time-travel, this, this is too mysterious! There is another section, keep reading, Meng Xinghe continued to look down with an uneasy feeling.
"Everything in life hurts old age, and all glory and wealth are in vain. I leave you three things as a gift to Mr. Meng. I don't like the mortal world and my love for immortality."
Meng Xinghe finally finished reading the entire three-page letter while sweating in confusion, surprise, and finally. After looking at the signature at the end, Taoyuan Crazy Taoist...Yuan Tiangang left a message!
"Yuan Tiangang?"
Meng Xinghe collapsed completely, and the defenses in his heart collapsed quickly. Meng Xinghe admitted that his Tang history was in chaos, but he still heard about Yuan Tiangang's name. According to the description in "The Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties", this man was able to rise from the dead and move mountains and seas.
, has the ability to subjugate demons and eliminate demons, and has the unique ability to predict the future and tell fortunes with just the right words. In Journey to the West, it is also recorded that the part about Jinhe Dragon King is so awesome that he can even calculate how much rain falls in heaven. He is simply a god. Meng Xinghe
He never expected that he would meet Yuan Tiangang.
Calm down! You must be calm! Give yourself a sedative. There is nothing to be nervous about. Aren't you just a fortune teller? I can know a thousand years from above and a thousand years from below. I'm on the same level as him. Meng Xinghe compared the treatments and used them.
, and the mood was much calmer. According to the letter, Yuan Tiangang left three things for himself. I don’t know what they were? Meng Xinghe went crazy and stretched his claws into the bag, feeling like a person who fell into the water and fantasized about grabbing one.
As urgent as straw.
After turning the bag inside out three times, Meng Xinghe got what Daochang Yuan had left for him.
The first thing is a book with very old pages, and the book is called "The Book of Taoism". The second thing is a painting, which shows a beautiful girl with a phoenix crown on her head and a rosy dress.
With phoenix eyes and willow eyebrows, cherry lips and a beautiful nose, she looks noble and elegant. She is leaning on a huge dragon boat, frowning and sighing, her eyes full of sorrow. However, the master of painting, who did not know who the famous artist was, actually painted this cardamom girl vividly.
, as if stepping out of the painting. But the third thing is a simple bronze mirror, and the meaning is unclear.
"The Tao Jing is a textbook, and the picture of the girl near the river is a good collection, but what is the mirror used for? Is it possible that I should look at the bronze mirror and be narcissistic about my handsome face?" Meng Xinghe Bai
I couldn't understand it, this Yuan Tiangang is indeed an expert, and he reveals mysteries in everything he does. "That's all, that's all, why bother with the unpredictable things? If you can meet him in the future, just ask him clearly!" Meng Xinghe accepted three
When I heard the voice of the servant Xiaowuzi from downstairs: Master, my wife has asked you to come down for dinner."
"Yes! I know, let's go down!" Meng Xinghe replied lightly, and touched his face in the mirror in the room: This guy looks good, but he is too fair. Go out to sunbathe tomorrow and get a tan.
That’s how you have character.”
After touching his face proudly, Meng Xinghe walked downstairs. The dining area was in the side room, which was just across the hall and from a corridor. Although the Meng family was in ruins, the house was very big.
, It’s a pity that there are not many men in the Meng family, only Meng Xing is left, and it looks a bit deserted.
Arriving at the side room, Mother Meng was the only one sitting at the table, with an aunt-level servant and an eighteen or nineteen-year-old maid standing next to her.
"Chun'er, show me the seat for the young master!" The 15-year-old maid heard Meng's mother's instructions and immediately set up a seat for Meng Xinghe.
"Uh! This is too considerate!" It was like the life of a wealthy landlord. Meng Xinghe, a good young man who grew up under the red flag and was born in New China, was a little flattered: "Don't stand, sit down and use it together."
Let’s eat! Xiaowuzi, you also sit down together. From today on, there will be no masters or servants in the Meng family. You are just employees here. We are all human beings. There is no distinction between high and low. Sit down! Sit down! "
In line with the principle of equality for all living beings, Meng Xinghe's timeless words greatly moved the three servants who had been with the Meng family for half their lives, but they did not dare to dine at the same table with the young master and his wife as Meng Xinghe did!
"You guys should sit down too! It's a good thing that the young master has such thoughts. From now on, there will be no distinction between master and servant in the Meng family, so you don't have to be cautious." When Mother Meng speaks, who dares not to listen to the maids and servants? They have been doing this all their lives.
Slaves are looking forward to the day when they will not be discriminated against. Naturally, they were very grateful and then took their seats.
"It's been so warm for a long time!" Meng Xinghe naturally sighed loudly during the meal, and the Meng family, which was so dull, gradually felt a touch of warmth. Meng's mother also felt this warmth, and she was naturally happy in her heart. Meng Xinghe walked away from the gate of hell.
After coming back, I have indeed changed into a different person. His stubbornness is still there, but he is also much more easy-going. At least he is no longer the prodigal, morally ill-tempered young master he was before.
"Hey!" Mother Meng sighed. Although Meng Xinghe had changed his ways, there was still a shadow in Mother Meng's heart.
"Mother! Why are you sighing? With Meng'er here, if anyone makes you unhappy, I'll beat him up!" Meng Xinghe was so angry that he deliberately looked like he was beating someone, but his eyes were filled with smiles.
No need to guess, the person who bullied Meng's mother was of course Meng Xinghe. His son was my mother's heart, and what Meng's mother couldn't let go of the most was his future.
"Meng'er, you have been home for a few months. Most of the courses in the county school have not been kept up with. Seeing that the imperial autumn provincial examination is coming soon, choose a zodiac day and go back to the county! Mother is afraid of worrying about your future.
If you stay at home, you will be the butt of laughter."
After all, today's world is the same as it will be a thousand years ago. People still rely on reading to earn a living. After ten years of hard work, they become famous overnight. Like most mothers, Meng's mother's thoughts are for her son's future. Naturally, she hopes that Meng Xinghe can stand out and honor his ancestors.
Seeing Meng's mother looking forward to the success of her son, Meng Xinghe patted her chest and said: Don't worry, mother, your son has been known for thousands of years, and has been known for thousands of years. It can be said that there is no one before or after, and he will definitely be the number one scholar to honor his mother!" If it's not Meng Xinghe's blow, it's just that.
With the lyrics and poems of the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties in mind, are you still afraid that you won’t be able to sell them?
