Chapter 62: New Year's Eve
As the sects are full of energy every day, the days are gradually approaching the end of the year.
The craftsmen quickly built the large pool a few days before the Chinese New Year. A pool that is ten meters long and two meters deep is located at the foot of the mountain. After the spring of next year, the streams on the mountain flow down, buy some fish fry and you can fish happily in summer.
When the craftsmen finally left, Lin Luo also sent each of them a red envelope of 100 cents, which made everyone grateful to him. He patted his chest and promised that if Master Lin still needed to work next time, they could only charge a friendly price.
After more than twenty days of busy work, the Lingyun Sect now is a world of difference from half a month ago. If the people from Qishan County come back, they will definitely stare and fall out, and then ask yourself, is the same place as this one before?
The open space at the foot of the mountain was transformed into a huge pond by Lin Luo, with five or six houses on both sides. In Lin Luo's plan, when the spring of the next year is about to start, move a few trees from this Shaoyang Mountain to cool down and fish in summer. It is definitely a good place to escape the summer heat and relax and have fun.
Walking up a blue brick staircase, it is the Lingyun Sect main hall. The renovated hall community still looks very magnificent at first glance. A gilded plaque is hung in front of the main hall - the Heart-Soul Hall. This word was written by Lin Luo himself. There is a side hall on both sides of the left and right. The side hall on the left is an indoor martial arts training hall, with plenty of equipment inside, long swords, big swords, and wooden stakes, which can be used for everyone's needs, and even these things can be moved out and moved to the disciple's accommodation for practice at night.
The side hall on the right is a place for meditation and practice internal skills. Lin Luo asked the craftsmen to deliberately turn the inside of the side hall into an inn form, with half of it open for all disciples to meditate and practice. There are more than a dozen small rooms left, each with only a small table and a small couch, which is used to place daily items and practice in seclusion.
Behind the main hall is the so-called "family area". The first thing that catches your eye is the blue brick martial arts training ground, which is three meters long and wide. Behind is the plum blossom stake that Lin Luo saw from TV, which is easy to make. There are many forests in Shaoyang Mountain, and find the thick and thin, and find some hard wood. Peel the bark quickly and dig a hole and nail it in.
On both sides of the two venues, there are places where the disciples live, with five rooms in two rows. The room on the left is a large dormitory for four people, and the room on the right is an independent small single room. This is what Lin Luo left for the female disciples for a long-term view. If there are female disciples to enter in the future, how inconvenient would it be to live in a large dormitory? However, Lin Luo thought that there would not be too many female disciples, so he built five first.
Since Lin Luo returned from Yunbing and accepted Chen Long as his disciple, he has transformed from a middle-aged and lower-middle-low peasant who has no money to make a living, he has transformed himself into a big landlord! The 5,000 taels of Yunbing unexpectedly earned by Yunbing and the 2,000 taels of gifts from the head of the general escort when Chen Long became a disciple. Just for this real money, the Lingyun Sect now has as much as 7,000 taels! In addition, there are a lot of cloth, chicken, duck, fish and meat, and even several craftsmen have been raised during this period. Both disciples are in a state of health and must keep up with their nutrition.
However, he didn't seem to have to worry too much about this. Chen Long was the young master of the escort agency. Zhao Zheng's child was from a good family before the accident. Although two young men are now thirteen and twelve, they are not much different from ordinary young men of fifteen or sixteen years old.
A Lingyun School has three floors, both upper, middle and lower, with complete facilities and quiet scenery. Even if it is placed in later generations, it will at least be a AAA three-level tourist scenic spot.
Lin Luo returned to the top of the mountain and looked down at the entire sect. From the broken walls that he had just arrived here to the prosperity now, Lin Luo really felt a sense of pride and happiness. In his previous life, he only had the dean, and he cared about his senior sister, respected his apprentice, and the old friend Zhao who was as kind as grandma, would become more and more in the future...
At first, Lin Luo would wonder whether it was a good or a bad thing to come here. Killing people is just a lie, and life is as cheap as grass. In just three months, a good student in the eyes of a teacher, a good brother in the eyes of a friend, and a young man who would never violate the law in the eyes of a policeman, had more than a dozen lives on his hands. What is even more surprising is that Lin Luo was not used to it. When he taught his disciples new things, he was not learning the things of this era from them.
There is still a lot of chicken, duck, fish and meat on the mountain. There is no need to worry about rotting after marinating. In order to add a little joy, Old Man Zhao sent people down the mountain to buy many red lanterns and red candles. At night, a red lantern lit at the door of each room, which was very beautiful when standing on a high place. After cleaning up, Lin Luo always felt that there was something missing. When he entered the door one day, he suddenly remembered that there were two red lanterns missing at the door - couplets!
Then a burst of red paper grinding and couplets were pasted in several main places.
"Master, what does the red paper and black letters you posted at the door mean? It seems that there is no such tradition in Qishan County?" Chen Long and Zhao Zheng followed Lin Luo, each holding a pot of paste, and the other carefully holding several pairs of couplets in his hands.
"This is called a couplet, which means that the new year is prosperous and the beginning is a good start! And have you noticed that the couplets on each door are different." Lin Luo walked in front and took two "little brothers" to wander back and forth. Yu Yunxin wanted to stop his junior brother and let him stabilize. Who would stick the calligraphy at the door? Even the kitchen door!? But when she thought that this was all for the New Year, she didn't stop him from looking for joy. Besides, Lin Luo's "literary talent" is good. Every couplet is extremely happy, so people are reluctant to pick it up after reading it.
Since Lin Luo wrote a poem more than half a month ago, this reputation has spread. You should know that although this is a chaotic era, the most respected scholars are the literati and doctors. Even the Supreme Confucius was also a ritual doctor in Lu before, who supervised the ritual and music education. The three schools of Confucianism, Taoism and Mohism all have cultural heritage and martial arts background, so they are sought after by many people in the world.
I heard that the most sensational thing in the world recently was that the 72 personal disciples of Confucius, the Confucian ascension of Confucian saint, were led by Yan Yuan, and wanted to compile the classic quotations that the saint told during his lifetime into a book for admiration and future generations to learn from. When Lin Luo heard this news, he was stunned for a long time before he realized it, and finally murmured: "It turns out that the Analects of Confucius is about to be born!"
"By the way, you two boys, how are you practicing internal skills in this sect? Do you have any questions? You must know that even during the Chinese New Year, your cultivation level must not be left behind. What do you say often by your master? " Lin Luo pretended to recall.
