Chapter 3 Sky Clouds Day by Day
"I saw a man who looked similar to him. He jumped over the wall and ran to the back mountain." Yu Bianyun said.
"Arrived at the back mountain? When did it happen?" Dong Liansheng asked.
"Just now, I saw it when I was woken up by you guys. If you want to chase me, you probably won't have time."
Dong Liansheng saluted: "Thank you, sir, for informing me." Then he got on his horse and led the people of Daoma Society toward the back mountain.
Yu Bianyun yawned, rubbed his eyes and walked into the temple again. As he was walking, an ape-like figure came close to him.
"Thank you, sir." Yuan San smiled at Yu Bianyun and said. Not telling a lie, Yu Bianyun was really a little nervous when he said he had met him before. After all, there were a group of people who had practiced outside.
"Thank me for what?"
"Thank you sir for helping me out."
"Help you get out of trouble?" Yu Bianyun was a little confused, "I just want to play tricks on them."
It turns out that Daoma Society has always done evil things by relying on its connections with the government, especially Dong Liansheng's precious son Dong Li'an. His reputation has spread to Meizhou. Just now Yu Bianyun knew that the person coming was Daoma Society, and he also heard that Dong Li'an was being raped.
When someone was killed, he was very happy. He felt that the murderer was really a kind man, so he made up his mind to help the so-called murderer, so he deliberately pointed the wrong way to Daoma Society and punished them.
"By the way, it's not you that those people are looking for, right?" Yu Bianyun looked carefully at Yuan San in front of him. He was young, looked like an ape, and was more than five feet tall. He was wearing animal skin clothes and animal skin boots, and was carrying a bow and arrow.
, isn’t it exactly the same as the murderer described?
"I'm afraid that's right." Yuan San said with a naive smile.
Yu Bianyun sighed and said, "Do you know who you killed?"
Yuan San shook his head.
"That's Dong Li'an, the young club leader of Daoma Club!"
The Daoma Society usually bullies men and dominates women, kills without blinking an eye, and chases enemies to the ends of the earth when they encounter them. Yu Bianyun added more details to what he heard and told Yuan San, hoping to frighten Yuan San.
Unexpectedly, Yuan San was not moved at all, and snarled, "I have bow skills, but I'm afraid of his hammer!" In fact, it's not that he's not afraid, it's just that he's young and lives in the mountains, so he doesn't know the depth.
Yu Bianyun was doubtful and said, "I see you are carrying a bow and arrows. You said you have archery skills with you. How can you still penetrate a poplar with a hundred steps?"
Yuan San got excited at this point: "Humph, I'm not bragging. Except for the sun, whether it's flying in the sky or crawling on the ground, as long as I see it correctly, there's nothing I can't hit."
"Is that true?" Yu Bianyun looked around and saw a cuckoo with eight cries parked on a tree about a hundred steps away. He pointed at it and said, "Shoot it down and let me have a look."
"What's so difficult about this?"
Yuan San put on the bamboo arrows and drew his bow to shoot. Yang Shangyun came over quickly: "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. How can you harm living beings in the pure land of Taoism? You can just find a leaf."
The face of the head of Yang must be given. Yu Bianyun glanced at Yuan San and thought to himself, this guy boasted that he was always on target, but I want to see you making a fool of yourself. So he pointed with his folding fan: "That cuckoo steps on
Do you see the branch? I want you to shoot the third leaf next to its right paw."
After Yu Bianyun finished speaking, Yuan Sanyi let go, and the arrow flew out like a ray of light. As the cuckoo flew up, the third leaf next to the original position of the cuckoo actually broke.
Yuan San smiled proudly and asked: "How is it? Do you accept it?"
Unexpectedly, Yu Bianyun raised his hand and said: "No, no, the leaves are too dense, there is no guarantee that you will not hit it. I want you to shoot that branch again."
"Okay." Yuan San set up another arrow and let go. Soon, with a gentle "click", the branch was severed from the soft part in the middle and stuck diagonally on the branch below.
"What about this time?"
"No, it doesn't matter. The branches are too dense. It might be an accidental collision. I want you to shoot the trunk of that tree. Please listen carefully. You have to shoot one foot above the ground and the same width on the left and right."
Yuan San smiled slightly and shot another arrow, hitting the tree trunk.
Yu Bianyun walked under the tree and took a closer look. The arrow was really one foot above the ground and the same width on the left and right. From this point of view, he was really dissatisfied. He couldn't help but admired: "I didn't expect that there are other things in this forest.
You are such a marksman! By the way, I haven’t asked you for your name yet, can you tell me?”
Yuan San chuckled: "I don't have a name, just call me Yuan San."
When Yu Bianyun heard what he said, he probably guessed that he had never read a book and was illiterate, so he said: "How can a man walk in the world without a name? If you don't mind it, how about you let me give you one?"
"Choose a name for me? Very good, very good. Just come up with it quickly."
"Just now you said that except for the sun, no matter it flies in the sky or crawls on the ground, as long as you see it accurately, there is nothing you can't miss. Then..." Yu Bianyun murmured to himself, and soon had a satisfactory name:
"The falling eagles and the wild geese and the flying birds have difficulty in setting the sun. This is called 'respecting the sun'. Jing is the 'reverence' of respect, and yang is the 'yang' of the sun. What do you think?"
"Yuan Jingyang, Yuan Jingyang..." Yuan San recited it several times, overjoyed: "Well, my name will be Yuan Jingyang from now on!"
After Yuan Jingyang was happy, he felt that Yu Bianyun was really the most knowledgeable person in the world, so out of respect, he also asked him for his name.
"Me," Yu Bianyun stroked the beard on his mouth with his left hand, shook the paper fan with his right hand, and said with a smile: "Yu Bianyun, a bachelor of Meizhou, whose name is Changfeng, is the name of Yu, the edge of the sky, the cloud of white clouds.
.”
Seeing this, Yang Shangyun took advantage of the situation and said, "You two seem to have hit it off immediately."
When Yuan Jingyang saw Yang Shangyun, he remembered that the Taoist priest seemed to know in advance that he was escaping to Chaoyang Temple, so he wanted to ask what happened. Yang Shangyun was not in a hurry to answer, but just invited the two of them into the room to talk in detail.
But Yuan Jingyang signaled: "Don't worry, sir, he asked me to shoot three arrows. Each arrow costs ten cents, a total of thirty cents. Can you give me the money first?"
Through long conversations, Yuan Jingyang learned that Yu Bianyun was twenty-eight years old and had a wife, a concubine, two sons and a daughter. Although he had an official position as a bachelor, it was a sinecure for literati, and he did not want to live in a study for a long time.
, so he went out to travel around. Yu Bianyun's father was an official under the magistrate of Meizhou, so his family was rich and could support him to travel around.
While chatting, Yuan Jingyang thought about how head Yang knew in advance that he had escaped to Chaoyang Temple, so he asked. Yang Shangyun said that he had calculated it. Yuan Jingyang expressed doubts, after all, fortune telling and predictions are such mysterious things.
, it always feels a bit deceptive.
Yang Shangyun smiled and said: "This is indeed calculated by the poor Taoist. I'm afraid Taoist friends don't know something. Everything in the world is in the Tao. Everything has causes and consequences, and the method of understanding the causes and consequences can be learned through Taoism. If you master it,
With these methods, everything can be seen, no matter in the past or in the future. Think of Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang, the two great men of the Tang Dynasty, who understood the mysteries and wrote "Tui Bei Tu". And Pindao is meditating today.
While meditating, I happened to catch a glimpse of Yuan Taoist friend shooting Dong Li'an before the incident occurred and escaping to Chaoyang Temple. Originally, the poor Taoist was also doubtful, so he asked his disciple to always look outside the Taoist temple to see if there was anyone like Yuan Dao.
A man who looked like a friend came. It wasn't until the Taoist friend really came that I felt extremely happy, knowing that what the previous teachers said was true, and that the universe is really hidden in a small space."
Yuan Jingyang was confused by what he said. Yu Bianyun's eyes shone and he nodded repeatedly.
Yuan Jingyang was not interested in these principles. He did not listen at all to the exchange of insights between Yang Shangyun and Yu Bianyun. Now he was more concerned about the golden eagle he had hunted earlier. The eagle feathers were worth a lot of money.
"Brother Yuan seems to be traveling in the sky." Yu Bianyun asked.
"Uh...Mr. Yu, when will you give me the thirty cents?"
Hearing this, Yang Shangyun's face darkened slightly. He was a Taoist leader and had been pure since he was a child. He was a little displeased that he talked about money in Chaoyang Temple.
Yuan Jingyang smiled slightly awkwardly and said: "Me, let me tell you the truth, I just like money and women. There is a word called greedy for money and lustful. That's how I am."
