Taoist temple in the mountains

Chapter 218, Four Books and Five Classics

Dalin Temple is not too big or small in the local area, and it doesn't have much reputation, but it belongs to the Qing temple in the true sense. It does not accept incense and worship from outside. Qingguan is equally quiet, but much more famous than Sanqingguan.

Temples in the Qing Dynasty are not subject to incense, which means that there are truly secluded and quiet masters inside, so many rich and noble people want to see them.

"Brother, do you want to go to the monk's temple?" Hanxiang's little face had a faint look of excitement, she hadn't traveled far for a long time, but she was also a little worried that Li Yun would not take her there, after all, the monk There is always something bad about taking a girl to the temple.

"Well, the distance is not very far. You can go with me if you go there on the same day." Li Yun smiled, knowing that Hanxiang also wanted to go out with her. As a mountain spirit, she couldn't leave Xiangtou Mountain for too long, but There is no problem with this half day.

"Long live senior brother!" Han Xiang jumped up happily, and said happily, "I have never entered a monk's temple before. Buddhism was very abundant in our place at that time. I heard that there are a group of muscular bald heads inside."

Li Yun thought about it, and it’s not surprising that Hanxiang thought so. Taoism was prevalent in the Tang Dynasty at that time, and even established it as the state religion. Although Taizong had a good relationship with Xuanzang, the state religion was still Taoism, while Buddhism was on the decline. The prestige among the people is not bad, and there are more people who recite Buddhist scriptures than the Four Books and Five Classics.

Strictly speaking, Buddhism has not declined in a real sense since its rise in China.

"Being bald is a must. After all, Dalin Temple does not accept lay disciples, but it is not necessarily necessary for all of them to have muscles. Now, for pure monks, only Shaolin Temple has them." Li Yun said, and then cast Keep everything in your sleeves and bring some necessary things with you.

Kettle, dust whisk, and some free snacks.

Li Yun estimated that Hanxiang would not be able to stop eating snacks along the way.

Han Xiang was also in a rush to get ready to go, but she didn't bring anything with her, and said in a hurry: "Let's go, brother!"

"Da Er Er, you two keep an eye on the door."

"Okay!" Ah Er had no objection, he could play with it all day by biting his own tail, not to mention Ah Da was with him.

After the confession, Li Yun and Hanxiang went out and went down the mountain, while Xiaobai followed behind for a while before returning to the Taoist temple.

In the morning, there were no people on the road, and there were not many cars on the road. The walking distance can be described as a piece of cake for Li Yun and Han Xiang.

The sun is bright and strong, but it is not hot, but has a warm feeling.

"The warm sun in early spring can make people feel happy no matter what time of day it is." Li Yun squinted at the sun and smiled.

"Senior Brother Yun, I always feel that we are always so carefree." Hanxiang and Li Yun walked side by side on the sidewalk, holding the small snacks made by themselves, slurping and eating, from time to time He also turned around, showing his innocence, and looked at the sporadic passers-by in a hurry on the road, and said: "But they are so busy. It seems that there is a lot of pressure on them."

Young people in suits and leather shoes are talking on the phone, sometimes scolding, sometimes flattering, all kinds of looks are reflected in the same person.

There are also hard-working salesmen who go in to accompany the little face, and then they are kicked out, but they still accompany the smiling face
All kinds of people, all kinds of faces.

"If someone desires, they will naturally desire. If there is no desire, naturally there will be no desire. At least our desire is different from their desire, so we can be free from worries, while they have many burdens. Of course, everyone has their own life. Some people like to be happy, plain, and some people like stormy waves, and live on the basis of being alive.”

live, and live
Hanxiang pouted, she still didn't understand these concepts, but for her, it's a good life to be able to eat delicious snacks now anyway.

"For Hanxiang, now is a very good life."

"So, people are different, just like the poor, they are very happy with the poor, don't be happy with things, don't be sad with themselves, and deal with it indifferently." Li Yun said lightly.

"Brother is the best." Hanxiang smiled sweetly.

"Tsk, do you still remember what you said when the system came?" The system suddenly clicked.

Li Yun smiled and said nothing.

Of course I don't remember it!
The two passed by an elementary school, and there were bursts of clear reading sounds from inside, and the immature voice of a child was very pleasant to hear.

"The things learned in this school are a little different from before." Hanxiang pricked up his ears to listen, and muttered, "The multiplication formulas are 'haha', 'three Q', 'Xiao Ming and Lao Wang'. What are these? What do you mean, don’t you study the Four Books and Five Classics now?”

Li Yun was amused by Hanxiang's cute appearance, and corrected him: "These are things that are learned in modern times, um. It's arithmetic, foreign languages, and... Well, I don't know exactly what Xiao Ming and Lao Wang are. Anyway, it’s all some modern knowledge.”

Hanxiang understood arithmetic and foreign languages, and said with emotion.

"It's amazing. In the current school, I feel that I learn more arithmetic than those of the Four Books and Five Classics, and I can communicate with foreign languages. I used to think about how useful it is for people to learn the Four Books and Five Classics."

Hanxiang didn't dare to say it before, but in this era, Datang has long since died, so he can naturally say it.

"It can't be said that the Four Books and Five Classics are useless. These books are for cultivating people's thinking, and modern education pays more attention to practicality. Today's education is changed on the basis of practicality, which is more suitable for modern development." Li Yun smiled.

The same is true for Hanxiang, listening to Lang Lang's reading sound, she is full of envy. She has never read a book before, especially at this age, she is already helping the Huo family.

"It's really a blessing to be able to play with children of the same age." Han Xiang looked at the elementary school students running on the playground through the iron fence, and said sincerely.

Li Yunshen took it for granted, recalling that when he was a child, he put scarabs on the table of his girlfriend, which made her almost cry. Before, I only thought it was fun, but now I think it was a model of orphans.
Well, these are dark history, Li Yun also try not to think too much
Just when the two were about to leave, they found a little girl sitting on the ground behind the fence of the primary school, with roses in front of them, apparently for sale.

The little girl guarded the flower booth, but looked into the school again and again, her eyes were full of longing, envy, and longing
