Chapter 503: Tianyi Pavilion
Since his rebirth, Zhou Zhi has planned a future route for himself, with one literary creation and another academic route. He relied on the advantages of his rebirth to make plans. As a result, he has already walked all the roads he desired and achieved great results.
Many outstanding achievements.
"I heard that there is still a literary work being serialized. It seems to be called..."New Journey to the West"?"
This is also a quite famous literary work. It is based on the setting of Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajiesha and Monk who went to study in the West. While introducing Western advanced technology, it also profoundly reveals the differences between Eastern and Western cultures and civilizations, criticizes and satirizes many unreasonable phenomena in capitalist countries, and
The serious theme is paired with a funny plot, which is both humorous and profoundly educational.
In academic majors, I can give lectures as a professor all over the world, and in literary creation, I can win the highest national award. I can grasp both hands with both hands, and nothing will be delayed.
"So, you must know that there are mountains beyond the mountains, and you should not underestimate yourself." Mr. Gu smiled and said: "I think I want to take the path of a child, right? Your starting point is actually higher than him."
"At least I know that Xiaotong's creation started when he was twenty years old after he went to Shu University. You are five years ahead of him, and your achievements are even higher than what he was back then."
"But then again, if it hadn't been delayed for ten years, I'm afraid the child's achievements would be far more than this." Gu Laozhen taught: "So you should cherish such a good learning atmosphere now, and surpass yourself in both aspects in the future.
Seniors are the right ones."
"I wonder if Professor Tong is in our school now. It would be nice if I could pay him a visit." Zhou Zhi was full of admiration for this senior. He didn't even think that Shu University was not his "our school" now, let alone
I never thought about whether people recognized him as a "junior".
Now he only has four words in his heart - I am not alone in my path.
And I am even more confident. It turns out that the route I planned for myself has been walked by others and it was very successful!
"As I said before, there's no need to rush." Gu Youwen said with a smile.
"Yes, as long as the child returns to China, he must come to Shu University to find colleagues and friends." Teacher Yuan said with a smile: "After next year, I will be admitted to Shu University. Not to mention meeting, there will even be opportunities for cooperation."
Zhou Zhi quickly waved his hand: "I don't dare to cooperate. It is necessary to accept teachings."
"The style of Shu University is about seeking truth and being rigorous. Confucius said, 'Do your duty without giving in to the teacher.'" Teacher Yuan said with a smile: "As long as you have the ability, why can't you cooperate?"
Zhou Zhi smiled nervously: "Isn't this just because you are afraid of lack of ability?"
Teacher Yuan stopped talking about this crop and picked up the stick of hay: "This grass has been recorded very early. It was recorded in Shen Kuo's "Mengxi Bubi Tan·Medicine Discussion" in the Song Dynasty: "People in the Tang Dynasty called it Linglingxiang, also known as Lingzixiang."
, saying that the flowers hang upside down and the branches are as idle as small bells,' which describes the characteristics of this plant very clearly."
"Speaking of this grass, there is actually a famous story."
"I checked," Zhou Zhi said: "This kind of grass is called Lingcao in medicine shops. It is the same as Paicao. It needs to be added when making hot pot."
"Ah?" Teacher Yuan couldn't help but be stunned, and then laughed: "He is indeed the person who wrote "Interesting Stories about Sichuan Flavors", and his three sentences are about food."
"Isn't that what you meant?" Zhou Zhi felt embarrassed.
Everyone laughed, and Teacher Yuan said with a smile: "Of course not, everyone knows about Tianyi Pavilion, right?"
Except for Guan Tingting, everyone here is considered a scholar. Of course, one of the four famous libraries in China knows about it.
Teacher Yuan continued: "This pavilion is known as the 'Southern Book City'. From the 40th to 45th year of the Jiajing reign of the Ming Dynasty, it was the library of Fan Qin, the right minister of the Ministry of War in the Ming Dynasty. There were originally more than 13,000 volumes of books in the pavilion, including
Most of them are engravings and manuscripts from the Ming Dynasty, and many are unique copies in China."
"The most troublesome problem in collecting books in ancient times was insect infestation. Fan Qin's early collection of books also suffered heavy losses due to insect infestation. During a review of books, Fan Qin accidentally discovered a "New Theory of the Book of Books", the sixth volume of which
It remains intact among all the damaged ancient books."
"This made him feel doubly strange. After careful inspection, he found that there was a fragrant and unnamed grass in the book."
"This grass caught Fan Qin's attention, but he didn't recognize it. He only remembered that this grass was accidentally inserted into his book as a bookmark when he was studying in Guangxi."
"So he wrote a book and asked friends in Guangxi for advice, and finally learned that this kind of grass is called 'spiritual herb', and people in Guangxi often put it in the wardrobe to protect their clothes from insects."
"So Fan Qin used a large number of this grass to prevent beetles, which eventually made Tianyi Pavilion stand out among many ancient libraries and become famous all over the world."
"I didn't expect that Tianyi Pavilion got such a big name from a small grass." Zhou Zhi really didn't know this story and couldn't help but sigh.
At this time, the godmother's pager rang, and it was the godfather who dialed the phone. After a few simple exchanges, the godmother put down the phone and turned on the speakerphone: "Teacher Yuan, Lao Wu said that he has something to report to you. I believe you can
I also have something to ask him."
Teacher Yuan answered the phone: "Hey Lao Wu, we have seen the Dragon Tibetan Sutra that Xiuzi brought. It is in very good condition. Have all the Tibetan Sutras in the Bodhisattva Cave been cleared out?"
The godfather's excited voice came from the other end: "Report to Teacher Yuan, report to Master, now we have transferred all the Buddhist scriptures from the Bodhisattva Cave back to the Buddhist Scripture Pavilion of Fawang Temple! After counting, there are a total of 108 boxes, each box
Seventy-two volumes, a total of seven thousand seven hundred and seventy-six volumes!"
"This batch of scriptures is very well preserved. Although it has lasted for hundreds of years, not a single one is missing. There are 608 more manuscripts than the currently known "Long Zang"!"
"What?!" Teacher Yuan and Mr. Gu exclaimed at the same time.
"After research, we have generally deduced that among the 608 manuscripts, more than 300 are from the Stone Scriptures of Leiyin Cave in Fangshan, and there are also more than 200 volumes of the Vinaya that were copied from Yunju Temple in Fangshan.
." The godfather's voice was full of excitement: "The remaining dozens of volumes are the diaries and accounts of the two Zen masters Guo Duan and Guo Qin on their journey of seeking scriptures, which are useful for studying the folk customs, prices, and religious activities of the late Qing Dynasty.
, are all of great value!”
"Old Wu," Teacher Yuan asked solemnly: "Let me confirm with you once again that the Tripitaka from Fawang Temple discovered this time is as good as the volumes I brought with me. Not only is there a lot of it,
There are six hundred and eight more volumes?"
"Yes!" Godfather said categorically: "This is the most complete Qing Dynasty Tibetan version found in my country so far. Although it is not that old, it is of extraordinary value!"
"Okay!" Teacher Yuan smiled and said, "Just confirm. The province will send a car to pick up these scriptures soon, along with the previously carved scripture boxes. You should prepare them."
"Well..." the voice over there became a little hesitant: "This is no problem, but the elder Cixiang of Fawang Temple put forward a condition, that is, can we allocate a sum of money through our province to repair Fawang Temple?
Fan?"
"Our Fawang Temple is also a very unique local architectural complex with great historical, cultural and artistic value. We also welcome the provincial cultural relics department to come to inspect and appraise it to meet the request of Elder Cixiang."
"After all, the monks of Fawang Temple have made great contributions to protecting our important Chinese classics!"
