Chapter 2713

Back in the Central Plains, more than 80 years have passed since the last departure. This time, as soon as Yang did not return from the western regions, he set foot on the land of the Song Dynasty from Hangzhou in a sea boat.

After leaving count de Porter, the sheep wandered aimlessly in Europa for a year, and then went to the great city of Rome in the south, where he met a Byzantine scholar named Gavras.

Gavras was asked by a very deep soul: who am I? Where am I from? What am I going to do? He was deeply attracted and attracted by people of the same way and had a good time talking with each other.

Therefore, Gavras warmly invited the sheep to Constantinople. He said that the world we see before us are illusions. If we want to see the nature of the world clearly, we should ask the soul and the universe.

As soon as the sheep asked him how to ask, Gavras said, "go and read, and look for answers from books.".

The sheep thought deeply, so he followed Gavras to Constantinople, the capital of Byzantine Empire.

Byzantine is the name of later generations, also known as the Eastern Roman Empire. Byzantium continued the culture of ancient Greece and Rome, respected philosophy and astronomy, geometry, etc.

From Rome to Constantinople, they walked for more than a month. After a month's conversation on the road, the sheep easily lost their fillings. Gavras found that he was neither a scholar nor a profound man.

However, as a noble gentleman who deeply understood the etiquette and cultivation and a senior cultural person, Gavras was still very graceful and trustworthy in introducing Yangyi to the Byzantine imperial library, and then Yangyi never saw him again.

The imperial library, also known as the Sidon Library of Constantinople, is undoubtedly one of the largest libraries in the world today. In the library of Sidon, there are almost all the ancient books and books in the West from ancient Greece to ancient Rome to the present, which is very comprehensive.

In this respect, the central plains are not as good as the West. There are Sutra collection halls and book collection pavilions in the Central Plains, but there are no Libraries Facing the public.

Although the Sidon library is only open to the Byzantine nobility, the common people will be hanged and whipped if they break in. Moreover, the self appointed "Duke" of Yangyi doesn't work here. However, Gavras is the philosophy and history teacher of the Byzantine emperor and queen Zoe, and his recommendation works well.

Yang Yi lived in the library for six years.

Although he is not an aristocrat, and Gavras, the recommender, has never shown his face, but Yang Yi is rich. Money can make the devil move the mill, but also can buy the library officials.

It took him six years to finish reading all the books in Sidon library. Most of the books he didn't understand were turned over page by page, just like a dog looking at the stars.

Even so, he watched it for six years. Sidon library, it's really big. Six years later, Yang Yi felt that he was full of wisdom, but when he thought about it carefully, he seemed to remember nothing but some novels, anecdotes and wild history.

Of course, there is no discovery, no way to trace the origin of the world. Who am I? I still don't know.

But he still felt that old master Gavras was right, and there must be nothing wrong with reading more books. So, as soon as time is meaningless, sheep decides to spend the next 100 years reading all the books in the world.

As soon as the sheep left Constantinople, he went to another place to read. He didn't know that he was the only one in human history to go through all the books in the Sidon library, which was unprecedented and unique.

The day he left, Sidon librarian wept bitterly.

Over the next two decades, as soon as the sheep passed through Persia, which is now the Seljuk Empire established by the Turks. I went to the original Tianzhu, where it was more chaotic. There were more than a dozen countries, large and small, and sheep could not remember their names completely.

Then sanfoqi, Khmer and Champa were very close to the Central Plains. Along the way, of course, there will be no library. The place where the most books are stored is usually the temple, so the sheep go to see them one by one.

When the monks let him see it, he would watch it quietly. If he didn't, he would take out the money and give it to him, and then he would watch it slowly. If you don't let him see the money, it's very unreasonable. He can only fight. After that, the monks will politely invite him to come in and take care of the vegetarian food.

In the juelin Temple of zhanpo state, several Buddhist monks were beaten to tears by the sheep. After the battle, the sheep let the temple kitchen to cook first, and then walked into the Tibetan Scripture building with his hands on his back.

In the side room lay an old monk who was thin and became a firewood. He was so old that he almost lost his human appearance. He breathed more than he inhaled. Obviously, he soon passed away.

The old monk is old, but his heart is not old. "Boy, if I could be sixty years younger Seventy years old, how can you be so presumptuous? "

Sheep heart said: that's not necessarily, you know how old I live?

However, Yangyi is always a kind man. In the face of such an old monk, he still shows his kindness to his younger generation.

Not in a hurry to read, the sheep asked for a cup of warm water for the old monk and fed it to him to moisten his throat. In fact, the most important thing is that Yang Yi discovered that the old monk was a native of the Central Plains just like himself.

With this tone, Yang Yi and the old monk had a talk.The old monk said that he was 98 years old this year. I'm afraid there are more than one. His law is called "Lingxiu". Yang Yi feels that he is against the law. However, monk Lingxiu does come from the Central Plains. He is not a monk here. He has been living here for 40 or 50 years.

After trying hard to recall, Lingxiu monk remembered his layman name Yang Yande, who was the fifth son of Yang Ye, the former right leader of the great Song Dynasty, known as Yang Wulang. More than 60 years ago, he followed his father to fight against the Khitans of Liao.

Wang Fuxia, a supervisor who did not understand the war, forced Yang Ye and Yang Yande to go to war. As a result, they were surrounded by Liao troops in Jinshan. In the end, Yang Yili was killed and the song army was defeated.

After climbing out of the dead with half his life, Yang Wulang shaved his hair and ran into Wenshu courtyard in Wutai Mountain to avoid the search of Khitans. There, frustrated Yang Yande was inspired by the Buddha, so he really cut off the mortal world and became a monk.

However, he did not know how to leak the news. The Khitan people went to Manjusri temple to catch him. Yang Wulang, whose ring scar on his head had not solidified, had to run away again. He ran to Songshan in one breath, and entered Shaolin Temple with a letter of introduction from the abbot of Manjusri temple, and his name was Lingxiu.

Whether it's Yang Wulang, Yang Yande, or Lingxiu monk, this life is very unfortunate.

Among the "Ling" generation monks in Shaolin Temple, Lingxiu and his younger martial brother lingmen have the best feelings. For more than ten years, they have been like brothers. Lingmen is both literate and martial arts, with profound Buddhism, and is the key successor of Shaolin Temple. Lingxiu became a monk in the middle of his life. Fifty years ago, he took his younger brother lingmen to the foot of the mountain to peep at the farmer's wife's bath. Zhiyan, the Abbot's master, caught him.

Lingmen was punished for one year, but Lingxiu was not. He was sent out of the temple for ten years. The key training and soy sauce monks, treatment is certainly not the same.

On the day he walked out of the mountain gate, his younger brother lingmen cried very sad, so he must come back. Younger martial brother is much younger than him. He is actually coaxing his younger brother into being his son.

Monk Lingxiu's Buddhism is not good, and his martial arts are not good after he was seriously injured in the golden beach. After leaving the Shaolin Temple, he traveled all the way to the south for alms, because the South was rich and peaceful.

Six years later, he had already spent a lot of money in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and was ready to go back. However, he was targeted by a villain named Jintai.

Although Jintai is very young, his martial arts skills are very strong. Lingxiu is not an opponent at all. As a result, the money from alms was robbed and he was chased to the sea.

Then his ship was overturned by the wind and waves, and was finally rescued by the passing ship. Unexpectedly, it was a pirate ship.

Pirates don't embarrass a monk, but song navy can. The pirate ship fled to the south, and did not dare to dock at the port of the Song Dynasty. Monk Lingxiu followed him to zhanpo country for no reason. Full of injuries, the road is far away, mountains and rivers are separated, and he has never been able to return to the Central Plains.

Yang Yi: "I'm going to

They are both the fallen people of the Central Plains. When they meet, there is no need to know each other. Sheep did not read a book, with a strong sympathy to accompany Lingxiu monk for four days. On the fifth day, Lingxiu monk passed away.

Before he died, he gave his Dudie to Yang Yi and asked him to take it back to Shaolin Temple. Dudie is the monk's identification.

Monk Lingxiu asked Yang Yi to go to Shaolin Temple to find his younger martial brother lingmen and tell him his experience in the past few years. Then he asked the martial monks of the Damo Hall of Shaolin Temple to avenge him and kill the evil thief Jintai.

Yang Yi agreed.
