It is not easy to be a monk in the Tang Dynasty

"The younger brother was brought to Dazongchi Temple by the master a few months ago. He heard the master said that the younger brother has the root of wisdom and has a relationship with my Buddha. After being discovered by the master, he persuaded the younger brother. Finally, the younger brother came to his senses and decided to escape from the sea of ​​suffering. On the main road, the master brought the younger brother back."

Yun Yin scratched his head, he was annoyed by the stories Zhang Yang Ye Zi and Gen had to tell.

Zhang Yang said that he is very speechless now, really, he never thought that someone would treat a monk as a monk as an act of awakening, so there are many people in this world who are still struggling with the mystery!

"Before the younger brother became a monk, he lived in Jian'an Square in the west of Chang'an City..."

Through Yun Yin's description, Zhang Yang knew that Zhang's family in Jian'anfang was a down-and-out scholarly family.

Bian Ji, formerly known as Zhang Yang, is the only son of Zhang Mingyuan, the master of the Zhang family.

Young pregnant with the festival of Gao Tao, handsome and heroic, with extraordinary bearing, has always been the pride of the master of the Zhang family, smart since childhood, and has the ability of photographic memory.

Mr. Zhang has high expectations for him, and hopes that his son can stand out in the imperial examination so as to glorify the Zhang family and return to the prosperity of the family.And Zhang Yang did not live up to his father's expectations, he was admitted as a scholar at the young age of 15!

In the city of Chang'an, which is full of talents, it is not only stunning but also in its prime. It is the age when Yu Lang is the youngest and Fangcao is jealous of Chunpao.

However, this young man whom the Zhang family placed high hopes on hadn't yet shown his due brilliance. After meeting an old monk by chance, his temperament changed drastically. Regardless, Mr. Zhang tried hard to persuade him to no avail, and expelled Zhang Yang from the house in a rage.I am even more sad than heartbroken. The ridicule of the neighbors makes Mr. Zhang at a loss. He sells his property and stays away from Chang'an. No one knows where he is going.And Zhang Yang was taken to Dazongchi Temple by his master Daoyue monk to be a young monk who rings the bell and chant the Buddha, and the Dharma name is Bianji.

After listening to Yun Yin's narration, Zhang Yang finally understood his situation, that is, a poor guy who can't go back home, eat meat, drink alcohol, and have girls!The world is wonderful, but it is a pity that people are helpless while alive.

The most important thing is that I can't go back now.First of all, I don’t have any memory about my original body, which is especially important. Even if I use amnesia as an excuse, in front of my parents and relatives, ordinary little habits cannot be changed. It may become a completely different person from before.If I go back to the Zhang family now, I will definitely arouse their suspicion.But in the monastery, there is no need to consider this issue. It has only been two or three months since Bian Ji came to Da Zongchi Monastery, and everyone is not very familiar with him, so they will not be very surprised by his change.

Secondly, Zhang Yang knew from Yun Yin's words that Master Zhang was very angry with Zhang Yang's becoming a monk, and even expelled Zhang Yang from the house, and removed his name from the family tree.It can be seen that Mr. Zhang is not clear.

Zhang Yang expresses his understanding of Master Zhang's actions. Seeing the hope of revitalizing the family is shattered, this kind of pain is more unacceptable than never having hope. It is like falling directly from the clouds to the ground. This kind of psychological gap is not something ordinary people can bear of.This is not good news for Zhang Yang. Although the father and son did not have an overnight feud, it may not be possible in a short time to dispel the old man's anger. The key is that this time the old man is really heartbroken.

In the end, Zhang Yang didn't even know where Master Zhang moved to. The Tang Dynasty has a vast territory and is not as developed as modern transportation. It is very difficult to find someone.

Now Zhang Yang can only choose to live in the temple first. After all, Datang is still a very strange place to Zhang Yang. It is extremely important to have a place to live and a buffer time.

"It seems that I have to continue to be this defense machine!"

Zhang Yang is very helpless, knowing the ending of Bianji in history, Zhang Yang doesn't want to associate himself with the word Bianji for a moment, but the current situation is beyond his control, so he can only bow his head in reality and think about the future.

Be sure to get familiar with everything here as soon as possible, and books are the fastest way to understand this era.

The Sutra Pavilion not only collects all kinds of scriptures, but also various books including geography, travel notes and humanities. These are the records, insights and experiences of traveling monks traveling around the world.Zhang Yang stared dumbfounded at the book in his hand, his head was full of black lines, he graduated from a national key medical university, now he has no way to deal with the words in the book, he doesn't understand it at all!

What?

The young master dressed as an illiterate?

This realization made Zhang Yang's eyes widen in astonishment. In ancient times, the status of scholars was very high. Everything was inferior, but reading was high. The illiterate and unfamiliar with this world made Zhang Yang very oppressive. feel.

My forehead is covered with black lines, what should I do now?This situation was unexpected by Zhang Yang, and he never thought that he would one day become illiterate again.

Hmph, it's a big deal to start over again. After experiencing the tempering of the Chinese college entrance examination, this young master is still alive and kicking and healthy. Now, this young master has nothing to be afraid of!After adjusting his mentality, Zhang Yang cheered up again.

The sky and the earth are dark and yellow, the universe is prehistoric; . . . . .

Holding the "Thousand-Character Essay" in his hand, coupled with "Shuowen Jiezi", plus the subtle resemblance to the simplified characters, Zhang Yang began to study hard, comparing each word and writing each word silently , Reverted to the state of preparing for the college entrance examination and reading at night with lamps and lanterns, and announced to the outside world that he would study scriptures behind closed doors, and all monks, big and small, praised this.

"Finally, I don't have to be illiterate."

It took Zhang Yangfa two full months to match the simplified and traditional characters, and he kept in mind the structure and writing of each traditional character.Rubbing his red eyes, although these days have been hard, it was not in vain. Looking at the handwriting just written, Zhang Yang nodded very complacently, very good!

Chao is Tian Shelang,

Mudeng Tianzitang.

There will be no species,

A man should be self-improvement.

Although the handwriting is still crooked and there are no fonts to speak of, it can be clearly recognized after all, and Zhang Yang is not discouraged about it. Everything is difficult at the beginning, and now at least I am no longer illiterate.As for handwriting, it is not something that can be accomplished overnight, but after diligent practice, Wang Xizhi became the most holy in the book after dyeing a pool of clear water. How long has he been practicing?

Looking at this poem I wrote, Zhang Yang's heart suddenly became clear, a man should be self-improvement!No longer immersed in the fate of the debate machine sad.Now that I have become a debater, Zhang Yang will fight against the sky and the earth, so that fate will change, and my name will be remembered by all people!
