Mountain Miscellaneous

Chapter 175
When Qiu Lexian and Tian Guangwen arrived at Lijia'ao, it was already sunset, and the golden afterglow of the sun set off the lush greenery of Lijia'ao.

"A village with a beautiful scenery, where is Mr. Li Changqing?" Tian Guangwen looked at Li Jia'ao and asked Qiu Lexian.

"Mr. Li lives in the mountains, not in the village!", Qiu Lexian explained with a smile.

"Then let's go to the mountain to find Mr. Li Changqing?" The courses undertaken by the Institute of Mathematics are crucial to the whole research, and Tian Guangwen is more anxious.

"Mr. Tian, ​​Mr. Li lives on the other side of the mountain. It will take about two hours for us to go up and down the mountain. It's getting late now, and I'm afraid it's too late. Why don't we stay in the village for a night and visit Li tomorrow morning?" gentlemen!"

Qiu Lexian pointed to the mountains behind Li Jia'ao, and tentatively said to Tian Guangwen.

"Is there a place to stay in the village?" Tian Guangwen was very curious.

"In the past, Lijia'ao was just an ordinary mountain village. Because of Mr. Li, people came to Lijia'ao every day. Some people opened restaurants in the village, but the price is not expensive, and the food tastes very good!"

Qiu Lexian had a meal, and the farm food of the villagers of Lijia'ao was also unique compared to some high-end restaurants.

"Principal Qiu said that Mr. Li Changqing would give lectures at Lijia'ao Primary School every morning?"

Tian Guangwen didn't comment, and suddenly thought of what Qiu Lexian said about Li Changqing when he came on the road.

"Yes, it's a pity that I'm busy with various mundane affairs. Although I'm only an hour or two away from Mr. Li, I only got a taste of Mr. Li's Chinese culture at the opening ceremony, but I was also fascinated by it. In the future, I will always be deeply regretful to listen to it live! Today, by taking the opportunity to accompany Director Tian, ​​I happened to have a glimpse of Mr. Li's demeanor!"

Qiu Lexian was deeply impressed by Li Changqing's indiscriminate remarks at the opening ceremony. It was the first time he felt the profoundness of Chinese studies and couldn't help looking forward to Li Changqing's lecture tomorrow morning.

"Okay, thanks to Principal Qiu for taking time out of his busy schedule to be with you. I will treat you tonight, and Principal Qiu will be your guide!"

Tian Guangwen is concerned about the project, but when he thinks about it carefully, he can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, so he might as well relax.

"Director Tian came to Wen'an City for the first time, how can I let you treat me? I'll come..."

Qiu Lexian intended to curry favor with Tian Guangwen, and said it very enthusiastically.

The Master said: You can learn the new by reviewing the old, and you can be a teacher!
In Zhong Nanshan, Li Changqing had prepared the prescription to treat Zhang Jiaye, so he had more time to read books.

Li Changqing has acquired the Confucian Six Classics poems, books, rites, changes, music, and spring and autumn for a long time. It is an inexhaustible treasure, and Li Changqing's Confucianism is becoming more and more profound. The righteousness of Meixin Ni Gongwan Xuehai is like a vast mist, but there is another seed in the middle of the sea that emits bright light.

There are roads and diligence in the mountain of books, and there is no end to learn to work hard.

Li Changqing took the sages of the past dynasties as his teachers in the deep mountains, and studying hard all day just enriched the sea of ​​learning, which shows the difficulty of building a palace of literature in the sea of ​​learning.

The morning in the mountains seems to come earlier than in the city, and the roosters start crowing at four or five o'clock.

Tian Guangwen woke up without any sleepiness, thinking about yesterday's experience like a dream, is Li Changqing really as magical as people say?
Qiu Lexian slept soundly, and woke up feeling refreshed.

As soon as the day dawned, there were already many visitors to Lijiaao. Qiu Lexian heard that those who went there were late, and there was no place to stay. They went to the playground of Lijiaao Primary School after drinking a bowl of porridge with Tian Guangwen.

The front row of the playground was already full of people, like ardent fans eagerly anticipating the appearance of their favorite idol.

"They all come to listen to Mr. Li Changqing's reading?"

It was hard for Tian Guangwen to imagine that in the deep mountains, a large number of people gathered early in the morning just to listen to one person's lecture on Chinese studies, and he was very surprised.

Such a scene, even in Yenching University, only happened when Mr. Ji Xianlin Ji was still there. Could it be said that Mr. Li Changqing's attainments in Chinese studies can keep pace with Mr. Ji?
But then Tian Guangwen shook his head again, Mr. Ji's life is rich and poor, even though Mr. Li Changqing has a lot of research on Chinese studies, how can he compare with Mr. Ji?
"You're from out of town, right? If it wasn't for being able to listen to Mr. Li's teachings on the spot, who would come to a mountain bump early in the morning without going to sleep?"

When Tian Guangwen was thinking, a young man in his 20s looked at Tian Guangwen, and then he spoke, but his eyes glanced at the direction behind Lijiaao Primary School from time to time.

"Mr. Li is here!"

The originally noisy playground immediately quieted down, as if the silent class bell was ringing.

Tian Guangwen saw a young man in ordinary clothes slowly walk to the middle of the playground under the attention of everyone, with a faint smile on his face, giving people a very warm feeling like the rising sun.

"If you have something but don't live there, it's called modesty. Gen inside stops, Kun outside obeys, the meaning of modesty. The ground is low, the mountain is tall and below it, the image of modesty."

"Being humble with lofty virtue is also the meaning of humility."

"A humble person bows down to things, puts others before oneself, treats things like this, and everything is connected, so it is called prosperity. But the humble man can't last long, but the gentleman has an end."

Qian hexagram Genxia Kunshang, for the image of a mountain underground.

Yamamoto is tall, but he is underground, so his tallness cannot be displayed, while Dasein people are like people with high virtues, but they can consciously not show off.A humble person is like a mountain, never showing off his beauty, and never covering up his bare rocks and cliffs.

Li Changqing used the hexagram of modesty in the 64 hexagrams of "Book of Changes" to expound the theory of modesty in "The Analects of Confucius", "Mencius" and other classics.

"If Mr. Li Changqing's remarks can be promoted, the academic atmosphere can be greatly improved!"

After hearing this, Tian Guangwen was deeply moved, thinking of the overcrowded situation in China's academic circles, he praised in his heart.

"It's a pity that Mr. Li is like the snow lotus on the mountain and the Lanzhi in the valley. Although it is fragrant and elegant, it is rare and rare!"

Qiu Lexian also had decades of ups and downs in colleges and universities before he became the principal of Wen'an College. He was used to all kinds of academic activities, and thinking of Li Changqing's style, he couldn't help but sigh.

When Tian Guangwen and Qiu Lexian were full of thoughts, Li Changqing quietly returned to Zhongnan Mountain.

"Huh? Where's Mr. Li Changqing?" Tian Guangwen came back to his senses. The people on the playground were leaving in an orderly manner, and Li Changqing was nowhere to be found.

"Director Tian, ​​don't worry. Mr. Li should have returned to the mountain. I will accompany you up the mountain. As for whether Mr. Li would like to see you, it's hard to say!" Qiu Lexian said.
