Chapter 655 The Talented Teacher Li

The little cook, with small steps, nervously followed the Siluo of the Imperial City to the house.

When she was called out just now, the female envoys in the next few rooms screamed in fright. The tense atmosphere made her legs go weak, and tears rolled in her eyes.

But when we actually arrived at the place, we found that it was a spacious room without those vicious jailers. A man with a gentle face was sitting in the center. Charcoal was burning in the stove in front of him, bringing the long-lost warmth to him. .

Li Yan looked at the pretty face of this little lady flushed with cold, and waved: "Don't be afraid, come here!"

Shi Shi looked at him carefully, but without hesitation, he came to the stove, stretched out his hands, breathed a long sigh of relief, and looked alive.

Li Yan waited for her to bake for a while, and his body became slightly warmer, before he asked, "Aren't you afraid of me?"

Shishi's eyeballs rolled like lacquer: "A senior official is like a big Buddha in a temple, with a golden light shining behind him, it won't harm me."

Li Yan smiled: "Did you really see it, or did you deliberately please me? Can you tell me the truth?"

Shishi paused, and lowered his head: "I saw it last time, but this time it didn't..."

Li Yan said with a smile: "Then you are the same as me, seeing people are always ineffective... What is your surname, do you have a famous name?"

Shishi didn't understand the first half of his sentence, and replied obediently to the latter: "My surname is Li, and I am the youngest in my family. Senior officials can call me Li Youniang. My aunt asked for a Buddhist name for me, called Shishi."

Li Yan raised his brows slightly: "No wonder...that Mrs. Yan is a kind person, it is really great for you to be able to protect you in front of officers and soldiers."

Shishi nodded heavily: "Well, when Shishi grows up, he will repay auntie!"

Li Yan asked, "Where are your parents?"

Shishi's tone became lighter: "My mother left early, daddy... daddy treats me badly..."

Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite, and it is difficult for parents to choose. Li Yan thinks that although the parents of the two lives have huge differences in personality and status, they are all good to him, and he already feels very lucky.

After sighing a little, he looked at the little lady: "I want to ask you to do one thing for me. In return, I will do three things for you. What do you think?"

Shishi tilted his head: "It's a good thing to help each other. Aunt Yan is in the back kitchen and has always taught us this way, but why did the high official ask me to make one, but help me make three?"

Li Yandao: "Because it's different from helping in the back kitchen. What I ask you to do is dangerous. Even if I watch in the dark, I can't be sure that nothing will go wrong. But what you ask me to do is hard to do. What danger did I cause, so this is barely fair, do you have any wishes to fulfill?"

Shishi was also polite, his eyes lit up: "Is everything okay?"

Li Yandao: "It's all right, I will try my best to help you finish it."

Shi Shi hurriedly clasped his hands together, with a pious posture, as if making a wish to the Buddha: "I hope Dad will stop liking gambling and stop trying to sell me all day long..."

After Xu finished, he looked over eagerly.

Li Yan said slowly: "I'm sorry, I can't completely change a person's preferences, especially a person who is addicted to gambling, the more you don't let him gamble, the more itchy he will feel, and often he will not wake up when he is desperate. ...But I can make him unable to gamble, let alone sell you."

Shi Shi tremblingly said: "Can Dad really stop gambling and sell me?"

Li Yan said gently: "Of course, don't you think I look like a Buddha in the temple? Although I am not a Buddha, I will not make promises in vain."

Shi Shi got up immediately, and was about to bow down and kowtow: "Shi Shi, thank you for your kindness!"

Li Yan supported her body from the air, sighed and said: "I can't bear it, I want you to help me first, and then I will help you. There are too many people in need of help in this world, what I can do now very limited..."

Shi Shi felt an invisible hand pull him up, and returned to his position. The warm breath came to his face, enveloping his whole body. Tears immediately fell down: "Aunt Yan will be very happy, and Shi Shi will really repay her in the future!"

Only then did Li Yan understand that what the child was most worried about all along was that her father would sell her away, and that she would never return to Fan Lou and see Aunt Yan again.

Perhaps for a child whose mother died young, that fat chef lady has long been her mother...

"This child is a bit like Wan'er. It's all about the misery in childhood, and it was only later that I got a chance."

Seeing this ten-year-old Li Shishi, Li Yan couldn't help but think of his eldest disciple, Shangguan Wan'er.

Wan'er was born in a very good family background, but it is a pity that Shangguanyi's family was exterminated when she was still in her infancy, and her starting point directly became Da Nei Ting. There was also a mother who took care of her, and was later favored by the vicious Shang Gong, who wanted to train her to be an heir, and almost walked on a road of no return.

Thinking that later Wan'er became the mainstay of the prosperous Tang Dynasty under his vigorous cultivation, and got rid of her original destiny, Li Yan looked at Li Shishi who was crying with joy now, and his thoughts began to change.

After Shishi finished crying, he first asked: "Don't let your father gamble, that's the first thing, what else do you want?"

"I...I don't know..."

Shi Shi was very dazed, stayed for a moment, and suddenly said: "By the way, I just helped the high official first, what does the high official want me to do?"

Li Yan nodded secretly: "I have already arranged that matter, you don't need to appear at the beginning, you just need to show up at the critical moment..."

As he said that, he took out the book that he had taken out in the future, and handed it over: "Before that, you can read this "Consciousness-Only Strength", are you interested? If you don't understand, you can ask me..."

What he handed over was the "Weishi Jin" written by himself, which added the comprehensive understanding of everyone's cultivation in the Tang Dynasty. Compared with the original version, the difficulty of cultivation has been much lower. Of course, it is still difficult for those who are not talented enough. getting Started.

And Shishi sniffled his nose, took it with both hands, looked at it, quickly showed a blank expression, and then said in a low voice: "I don't recognize most of the words on it..."

Li Yan's expectation was replaced by a wry smile, yes, how could a little cook have the chance to learn many words?

But if the little lady in front of her is really Li Shishi, then within ten years she will become famous all over the world and become the most outstanding head of the upper hall. This learning talent is absolutely better than anyone in the academy.

If it is a man, with Li Shishi's talent, it is hard to say that he will be the number one. After all, it depends on the preferences of the officials, but the chances of being a Jinshi are extremely high. In fact, there were indeed many Jinshi from the bottom of the Northern Song Dynasty. To give birth to a good family, the last way for such a woman to leave her name is in the land of romance...

Just as she was thinking about it, Shi Shi flipped through the scroll, her eyes suddenly landed on a painting, her gaze was fixed, and she didn't move anymore.

Li Yan noticed something strange, but saw that the painting was drawn by himself based on the teaching Buddha statues in Daxiangguo Temple, not only the appearance and Dharma body of the Fighting Victory Buddha and Zhantan Gongde Buddha, but also [-] other Buddha statues, but the latter was obviously It is not as charming as the previous two statues.

These paintings are used by Li Yan in order to comprehend the supernatural powers, and at the same time alert himself. The Buddhist supernatural powers are instructive, so one must stick to one's heart and not forget to pay taxes.

However, when Shishi looked at these Buddha statues, his eyes seemed to be drawn in, and he stayed still.

Li Yan frowned: "My painting can't reach the level of inheriting supernatural powers, is it the guidance of Buddhism?"

As soon as he thought of this, he was ready to take away the painting of the Buddha statue.

But just as soon as he moved his hand, he stopped again: "It's a matter of collecting taxes for Buddhism. If you don't like Buddhism, you must make others not believe it. What's the difference between this behavior and monotheism? For the current Master Li , if you can comprehend a supernatural power, you will have the opportunity to change your life..."

Thinking of this, Li Yan no longer obstructed him, but watched silently.

The house was quiet except for the crackling of the flames.

After half a quarter of an hour, Shishi's lacquer-like eyes regained their spirits, and then showed a strong look of exhaustion, and yawned uncontrollably: "I'm so tired...uh..."

Before her eyelids were about to close, Li Yan asked in a low voice, "What did you see just now? Is it the light of the Buddha?"

Shishi muttered, "It's not light... it's many hands... each hand is connected with a thread... Zzz... Zzz..."

Halfway through the conversation, he fell asleep.

Li Yan felt for her pulse, asked someone to add some charcoal to the stove, took out a quilt and covered her, then sat back across from him, his eyes fell on the "Buddha said thirty-five" that he had drawn. "Buddha's Name, Ceremony and Repentance", especially the one that Shishi watched just now.

That is the one at the front. Zen Master Zhiyuan of Daxiangguo Temple at that time also mentioned a sentence: "Namo Vajra Indestructible Buddha, reciting Vajra Indestructible Buddha can eliminate the sins of karma in the past life. "

Li Yan looked at the Buddha statue, then at the sleeping little cook, and couldn't help but smile slightly: "Even if the Buddha feeds food specially, this talent is amazing!"

……

The Imperial City Prison.

The Shaodong family was lying on the thatch, falling asleep in a daze, when they were suddenly awakened by a quarrel.

He opened his eyes suddenly, but closed them quickly, and then listened carefully to the movement over there.

I heard a young voice yelling: "I have no money, and my family is long gone..."

"I, Zhang Qing, have come here to seek refuge with distant relatives, but not to implicate distant relatives. You want to find money from me, but you have found the wrong person..."

"Hmph, just hit if you want to, and you're not a hero if you frown!"

Only then did the Shaodong family confirm that he had nothing to do with him. He got up and went to the window, and saw a group of jailers pointing at a prisoner about four cells away from him and yelling: "You Qiuba, don't toast or eat fine wine!"

The prisoner also had a strong temper, he raised his neck, and his eyes showed ruthlessness: "Come here and try!"

The angle of Shaodong's house was just right, and he saw that in front of the dark prison, the man behind his back seemed to be clasping something, although he didn't believe that under such circumstances, the other party could actually bring in a weapon, but he became interested: "Fight! Hit me hard!"

But this expectation was suppressed by another equally young voice: "Brother Zhang Qing, don't be impulsive! Don't be impulsive!"

The group of jailers didn't appreciate it, and someone turned around and scolded: "Xu Ning, you have nothing to do here. You are also a general. You have given too little to our brothers these days, and you will settle accounts with you tomorrow!"

While the jailer was distracted, the first prisoner seemed to want to make a move, but his wrist trembled, but he didn't make any move after all. He threw a stone away, and then bent down and walked into the cell.

The Shaodong family looked on coldly, and secretly sighed: "These good people are always afraid of the majesty of the court, and it is not easy to force them back!"

The jailer didn't know that he had walked through the gate of hell, and when he saw the other party softened, he sneered and said, "Zhang Qing, you have not been powerful for a few days, and you will be interrogated immediately. , see if your mouth is still as hard as it is now!"

The man was not afraid: "Come here! I'm afraid you won't succeed!"

The last person who spoke mourned: "We were wronged, we really did not collude with the Mingzun Sect thieves!"

The jailers sneered and left cursing.

Until the prison became quiet again, the Shaodong family sat back, but he was completely sleepless, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "Blessings become disasters, and disasters become blessings. This is a great opportunity to recruit talents for my teaching!"
