Chapter 350 Two Vicissitudes of the Ancient Road

Li Junge smiled and said: "Then it will be customized in the future! The ceremony of releasing animals on the Buddha Bathing Festival is completed, and it can be regarded as a big festival for our Lijiagou people. Master, you don't know, our elders in Lijiagou are used to being closed. When people come and go, they may not be used to it, and they may even have resistance. Starting from such a compassionate and lovely festival as the Buddha’s Day, they will be more accepting of people from outside.”

Master Guoshan smiled and said: "It's a sin, a holy day is so utilitarian by you, your motives are impure!"

Li Junge pretended to be stupid, and said: "If others come, then I will naturally send the first-class wish to form a middle-class fate and enjoy the lower-class blessings, and I will be full of compassion and compassion. I only say that to you and me. This is also a part of the human heart. help."

Guoshan laughed and said: "Moisturize things silently, push the boat with the current, Piwa, you are very familiar with this game."

Li Junge smiled wryly and said: "Master, you have jumped out of the Three Realms and are no longer in the Five Elements, so you are naturally aloof. If you want to make your hometown better, don't you just have to work hard, anyway, this is a multi-purpose thing. The Buddha also You won't blame it, will you?"

Guoshan smiled and said: "You kid is too quick-witted, talking to you is really tiring. I'd better talk to your fourth grandpa. I've been disturbing you in front of the ancestral hall for a long time today. I should go and thank your ancestors for what happened. yes."

Li Junge winked at Master Guoshan and said, "Fourth Grandpa never speaks nonsense, but just follow what I just said."

Master Guoshan smiled and saluted Li Junge: "Thank you, Piwa, for reminding me."

Master Guoshan left in a hurry, but Li Junge was out of his mind, staring at the entrance of the ancestral hall with Douhua eyes in between.

A Yin asked: "What's wrong with you, Erpi? This bean curd rice is really delicious, why doesn't it suit your appetite?"

Li Junge shook his head and said: "A Confucianist, a Buddhist, do you think there will be a fight in the ancestral hall later?"

Ayin laughed so hard that he couldn't hold his chopsticks steady, and said, "Are you imagining the fight between Grandpa Fourth and Master Guoshan? Hahahaha, doesn't Bachelor Su also have Monk Foyin as a friend?"

Li Junge pursed his lips and said, "That's because the old monk Foyin couldn't play with Lao Su, so Lao Su took him with him. If they were evenly matched, they probably wouldn't be able to play anywhere!"

A Yin put a piece of bean curd into Li Junge's bowl: "Eat salty radish and don't worry about it. The second elder's life and behavior don't need you to guess here! Hurry up and eat, and go to Sun Lao with me after eating, he said yes Something to tell us."

After eating the vegetarian meal, Li Junge and A Yin rushed to Pan'ao Township together.

Eldest Brother, Elder Sun, and Liang Huili were squatting by a ditch at the head of the village, muttering.

Seeing Li Junge and A Yin rushing over, Liang Huili beckoned: "Er Pi, come and see, Elder Sun found this."

Li Junge walked over, the ditch was connected to a gutter under the roadbed, the gutter passed under the road, the whole gutter was made of bluestone, and clear spring water was rushing from the other side of the road.

A Yin said: "Here, I can't see anything."

When Li Junge looked at it, he had some ideas: "Old Sun, this small stone canal should be an old canal, right?"

Elder Sun nodded: "Well, there is no doubt about the old canal, and there is no way to determine its age, but it's not important. The important thing is where you look up from the mouth of the canal."

Li Junge followed Elder Sun's fingers upwards, and was surprised when he saw it: "Is that the old roadbed or the old road?"

Old Sun said: "At present, it seems to be the old roadbed. As for whether it is the road surface, we have to dig it out. If it is the road surface..."

Li Junge and Sun Lao laughed together: "That's a big deal!"

After laughing, Li Junge suddenly thought of a question: "No, no, why didn't I know there was such a road when I grew up in Lijiagou?"

Old Sun said: "I also discovered it when I dug up the accumulated soil when I was checking the ditch. You have to ask your fourth grandfather about this matter. If you don't know, he may not know."

Li Junge said: "I'm not busy, let's find a lot and dig it up first?"

Liang Huili was also very excited: "Then I'll call Uncle Zhu over. Anyway, this section of the road has to be rebuilt, so I'll dig out a section today and have a look."

After a while, Zhu Dingquan also came over, along with an engineering vehicle.

When Li Junge saw Zhu Dingquan, he shouted in surprise, "Oh, Uncle Zhu, you've lost weight."

Zhu Dingquan showed it to Li Junge with a smile: "Let me tell you Piwa, my belt can be tightened!"

Li Junge looked at Zhu Dingquan's waist like a bucket, and only one sentence came to his mind: the first step in the Long March.

But he didn't dare to say these words, he just smiled and said: "If you lose weight too quickly, will my aunt say that I, Lijiagou, are too cheap?"

Zhu Dingquan laughed loudly: "She, I wish I could lose half of my weight! Don't talk about her, why did you ask us to come here?"

Li Junge said: "Mr. Sun just made a discovery. We suspect that there is still a buried road on the road from Pan'ao Township to Lijiagou. We are going to get up and take a look."

Zhu Dingquan said: "Then where to start?"

Liang Huili said: "I am quite familiar with this road. It was self-raised by the village. It was built in [-]. The cement on the top is very thin, gravel and sand on the bottom, and river mud below. Uncle Zhu, you just need to smash the concrete floor, and I will call some fellow villagers to clean it up and see what's underneath."

Zhu Dingquan waved his hand: "This matter is trivial, Xiao Li, do you hear me clearly? Try driving a section of road."

Xiao Li nodded, and began to operate the engineering vehicle to crush the cement on the surface of the road.

After a while, Liang Huili also rushed over with a dozen fellow villagers to help.

Under the command of Li Junge, Eldest Brother and Elder Sun, everyone cleared out quickly, and Zhu Dingquan dispatched another water pump, flushed it with a water pipe, and a section of bluestone road surface was exposed.

The road surface is five meters wide, which should definitely be regarded as a big project in ancient times.

There are bluestone roadbeds on both sides, and the blue stones in the middle are separated vertically. The bluestones are arranged in the middle of the roadbed and the stones to form a mat texture. The vicissitudes of life.

Elder Sun patted Li Junge on the shoulder and said, "Piwa, it's exactly the same as the bluestone path you designed! You can be regarded as a god chasing the ancients!"

Li Junge is dazzled, today is the day of bathing Buddha, the old path of Qingshi reappears in the sky, and coincides with his own design, is there really God's will in the dark?
At this time, Ayin shouted in surprise on the side of the road: "Old Sun, senior brother, Erpi, come here quickly, there are writings here!"

The three hurried over, only to find a stone tablet lying on the side of the road. Some small characters around it had faded away, but the main body was still clear.

"At that time, in the Yin month of the 35th year of Hongwu, the Daoism of Gantang was completed, and the Li family of Pan'ao initiated Xiugong, and cooperated with Shangxiahe to practice the two schools of regular script. The whole family worked together for [-] years, and Bi De finally made great achievements.

On the day when it was done, Fang Tinggong said to the villagers: "This way starts with Li Shi, and does not end with Li Shi."It is a capital where you can connect to rice paddies, not to boast about your achievements.This way also leads to the development of Yijing, Yidu, future generations, who have pride, pride, arrogance, intrusion, fishing, and harm, and heaven and man will abandon it. '

I asked Yu to set up a stone to remember it, without embellishing it, so that the neighbors would understand his meaning, so as to receive the effect of expressing wood and slander.

I feel and admire it, and I am ashamed to write it on the right. I hope to share the glory with Li.

Lin Deyu, a native of Xinmaoju, Yongle, Panao Township, wrote a letter. "

Li Junge saw the word Hongwu, and immediately shouted: "Hey, it's something from Zhu Yuanzhang's time!"

Sun Lao just slapped him across the face: "I'm not good at learning! Hongwu is Zhu Yuanzhang? Hongwu's 35th year is Zhu Di's reign after he seized the throne. It was changed to Yongle the next year to show the world righteousness!"

Seeing Li Junge being scolded, the elder brother laughed, and said, "But I know the allusion of Gan Tang, Gan Tang's last love, this word is used to praise the resigned magistrates in ancient times, it seems that there was once a good official here, mobilized The people of the Li family built such a road."

In the end, Elder Sun slapped the elder brother again: "You are not asking for a deep understanding. Of course, Gantang has what you said, but if you think about it in the Lijiagou environment and the inscriptions, you will know that it is not the case. Piwa, tell me."

Li Junge said with a smile: "The word 'Gantang' is originally from the Book of Songs. After the death of King Wu of Zhou, King Cheng was young. Fortunately, there were two virtuous ministers to assist him, one was Zhou Gong and the other was Zhao Gong. Zhao Gong went to work below. When he was solving small disputes for the people, he did not harass the people, but sat down next to a Gantang tree, that is, a wild pear tree, and listened to the people's demands. He was not enshrined, and he was fair and serious. Miss him, let people pass things, and no one is allowed to move that tree, this is what the Book of Songs "Zhao Nan" wrote."

"The core idea of ​​the word Gantang is 'to leave love to others'. Therefore, I guess this has nothing to do with officials. It should be Qixiu who encouraged himself to be honest and upright in the court, and Shen Qing, who was modest and tolerant when he returned home, took such a title. The name. This is also consistent with the meaning of our Zipai poem "The imperial court heard about Fangzheng, and Tian Zelu recorded Qingzhong."

Elder Sun nodded and said, "That's almost what it means."

Liang Huili pointed to the above two words and said, "It's been too long, and I still can't understand some parts, how can I still get credit for slandering?"

Li Junge explained: "Do you know Huabiao? Its prototype is called Biaomu, which is a wooden cross, which is used to write appeals for the people at the bottom."

"Biaomu is also called slander wood, and slander here means discussion, which is now often referred to as public opinion supervision."

Elder Sun also nodded again and again: "Which elder of your Li family is this Qixiugong? Not only is he enthusiastic about public welfare, but he is also concerned about Zhouxiang. He is afraid that the charity road he built will be used for profit by future generations, so he specially erected a monument here If future generations dare to do this, they will be stabbed in the back."

Li Junge applauded and laughed loudly: "There's nothing wrong with it. I know where the root of my three steps and three observations came from. This old ancestor really doesn't have a good reputation in the genealogy. Looking at it now, he is also a master."

Ayin was also happy: "If there are intact bluestone roads under this cement road, we will turn over the old road and build on the new road, will it save a lot of cost?"

Old Sun smiled and said, "Little Ayin, the cost is secondary, the most important thing is that this road is really famous and real! The old path of Gantang preserved in the Ming Dynasty, coupled with the ancient roads around Pan'ao Township Jianhe Lijiagou ancestral hall, relying on these, can really restore an ancient village system from the Song Yuan to the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The cultural value, cultural relic value and tourism value are far beyond the reach of an antique road. "

　Some time ago, Lao Zhou's godmother discovered the stone tablet of Gantang Free Ferry at the old wharf of Majiezi, Hejiang County. The monument was erected again as evidence. When the gentry of the Republic of China was rebuilt, another piece was erected, and the changes of the Yidu were also written down. What Lao Zhou's godmother found was the piece of the Republic of China. Hahaha, good stuff, of course go to Lijiagou Moved... At present, the stele is still under research by the Cultural Management Office. All of these in the article are made up by Lao Zhou based on the development of the story. Don't take it seriously...
