Together with the mother and son of Kumorosh and the minister of King Wensu, I greeted King Guiz outside the city gate. Now that I know that he is Kumorosh, I certainly know why this essay sounds so familiar. It turned out to be Wensu, a county next to Aksu, Xinjiang. Two thousand years ago, it was a very small country under the jurisdiction of Guizi.

And the reason why this small country can leave an impression in my mind is because of Kumarajiva. That debate was historically known as the Wensu controversy, and it was an important event for the rise of Jumorosh's youth. The book does say that because of this controversy, Kumarajiva "was full of voice and reputation, and declared that he was overseas", "all countries hired heavy equipment", so King Kuzi had to go out and welcome Kumarajiva to return home. , So as not to get ahead of other countries.

The welcoming ceremony is now more and more grand, with red carpets on the ground all the way to the palace. The sound of music is endless, and flowers are constantly thrown. I remember that the king's name was Bai Chun. The Bai family was raised by Ban Chao, and the western region's capital of Ban Chao was located in Guizi. From the Banchao era to the end of the Tang Dynasty, Guizi was exterminated by Uighurs. For almost 800 years, the Bai family was the king.

Looking at this Qiuzi Wang Baichun, she resembles the old woman, and she has fine white skin, high nose and deep eyes, big eyes, brown eyes and wide eyebrows. It seems to be less than forty years old, and should look good when he was young, but now his figure is out of shape. Unlike other people's hair style, which cuts the shoulders and shoulders, he has short hair on the forehead, but the long hair on the forehead is tied to the top of the head, tied with a ribbon, and hangs behind.

What's interesting is that his head is also flat. I remember Xuan Zang's "The Story of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty" recorded that Guizi regarded flatness as beauty, and they used wooden boards to press the young children's heads. But only the royal nobility can squash their heads. Fortunately, Kumarajiva had been a monk since he was a child, otherwise the image of a handsome guy would have been ruined, what a pity.

Continue to look at the king's dress. Like other men, he wore a lapel narrow-sleeve tunic and knee-high boots, but he also had a half-sleeved shirt embroidered with gold thread and intricate patterns. He was wearing a sword behind him and had a short sword in his hand. It seemed that King Turtz had an unusual hobby of swords.

Seeing Kumorosh mother and child, King Turtle strode forward and hugged their mother and child in arms. The mother and son are also very excited, after all, they have been away from home for four years. I understood part of their conversation. The king congratulated Jumorosh on his return to school and his successful debate. Waiting for him to wait when he is ready in Guizi.

When King Guizi's eyes fell upon me standing behind the old woman, she was slightly surprised. I'm trying to practice my listening skills, and I didn't watch him look at me. I didn't know what to do with him for a while, and I laughed innocently. After laughing, I felt that it was wrong. After it was over, my image was ruined. I learned the etiquette from Bai last night.

King Turtz also lives in the palace, but it is another palace. There was a banquet in the evening, still in the main hall, and I followed. Since Kumarajiva and Jaipah do not eat dinner, we can only drink some water. I stared at the grilled meat in the case of the two kings, desperately swallowing. There was no singing and dancing at the banquet, so this evening banquet became La Jiachang. It was really boring, and I began to secretly move my **** again.

Suddenly I felt two familiar eyes staring at me, it was Kumarajiva. He pursed his lips and snickered. I looked around and no one noticed. He squeezed his nose and sticked his tongue out, making him want to laugh but dare not laugh. He turned around and said to the two kings that it was too late, and Uncle Wang had been working all the way, and he should settle down early. So everyone talked about the wine (we are water) and ended the dinner.

After I went back, I was hungry and my eyes were shining, so I quickly asked the attendants who served me to get me some food. In order to reduce physical exertion while waiting, I lay still on the bed. Smelling a meaty smell, he jumped up and saw the two Wang Shentan standing in front of the low bed with a smile. On the tray in his hand, the smell of meat overflowed.

I hugged him by the neck: "Rosh, you are so good!"

I have been thinking about how to call him. His Sanskrit name is too eloquent, and the name "Kumorosh" is too many and strange. Various abbreviations refer to him as "Rosh" and "Shi". To be precise, in ancient texts, he is more simply referred to as "Shi" and in modern times he is referred to as "Roche". In fact, strictly speaking, "Jumoro" is the surname, "Shi" (sound SHI, ten) is the first name. But it's too awkward to just call "shi", and the pronunciation of this word is not smooth. So thinking again and again, I called him "Rosh" according to modern habits, and he accepted it with a smile.

When I let it go, I found that his wheaten skin was red like apples, and his eyes evaded and dared not look directly at me. The pure and lovely appearance was really lovable.

Ouch, what did I just do? Glancing at his head, he scared him and asked me quickly: "Ai Qing, what's wrong?"

Staring at his shameful handsome face, he smiled awkwardly. He took the tray in his hand and gnawed the meat to hide his annoyance. How can I let him know that I regret Meng Lang. Even if he is young, I cannot be so close to him in a modern way. After all, he has a special identity that cannot be changed.

The bright red on his face didn't fade for a long time, and asked me without any question: "What should I learn today?"

I sighed and stopped nibbling the meat: "Go find someone to teach, I can't teach you."

He was taken aback, and his red face began to pale a little after the fade. "Why? Is there something wrong with Roche?"

"Why are you wrong? It's me, I really don't have the ability to teach you. You are Kumarajiva."

Speaking of "The Analects of Confucius", I don't have a book, and I can't recite it. I just taught him what I can recite. The order must be reversed, and there must be something wrong with the recitation. He was so smart that he could remember it after listening to it. If I talked about what he had wrong in his mind, wouldn’t a generation of translators be destroyed by me? I can't afford such a big responsibility. The Central Plains Buddhist cause is still waiting for him to develop and grow.

"But, but you taught very well!" His voice trembled a little: "You talked a lot, and I can remember it as soon as I hear it."

"That's because you are smart, not what I taught."

I looked into the two clear waters and said seriously, "Rosh, you are the smartest person I have ever seen."

His voice was as soft as a mellow wine, and he answered seriously, "Ai Qing, you are also the smartest woman I have ever seen. You know a lot of things, and the most rare thing is your understanding of Dharma. With you as a teacher, Roche is yearning for the Central Plains Handi. One day, Roche hopes to experience Handi and see what kind of water and soil has brought up a woman like Ai Qing."

With such a warm word, with such a sincere tone, my confidence could not help but swell. Can't help but think, did his initial interest in Zhongyuan originate from me? But I was immediately downcast, because I was not smart, but plagiarism. I even plagiarized his translations, and he, the actor, actually praised me for Huigen. Take Hyundai, that is infringement. I sagged my head and looked painful.

"just……"

Seeing me looking up at him blankly, he grinned: "If you don't have those silly expressions, you can be smarter..."

Dear child, dare to make fun of the teacher! I jumped to pinch his neck and escaped with a laugh. I chased him and ran around in circles, alas, his old man was really hard to catch up with. I still don't believe I can't pinch you. You haven't eaten in vain for more than ten years! I fell down on the ground with a bang, and he hurried to me and asked anxiously if I was hurt. I took advantage of him and finally managed to pinch his neck.

"You're a dead child, you won't be allowed to say that I'm stupid again. My name is so simple and understandable? Really, anyway, I am also your teacher. If you want to respect your teacher and understand it? Even if you are Kumorosh, you have to Be humble!"

I shook his neck and watched his pure face grow red. Am I pinching too much? Quickly let go and leaned closer to his neck to look closely: "Hey, is my hand too heavy? Are you in pain? Sorry."

His blush was bleeding, and his eyes began to dodge again. He turned his face, slightly pulled away from me and muttered, "Ai Qing, continue to teach me, okay?"

I sighed and held my chin in one hand: "But I don't even have a textbook. The Analects I tell you is based on memory. There are many mistakes. If you teach something wrong, you might as well not teach it, and mistake your children."

He looked at me fixedly, his eyes bright, his face still red, and a smile came to his lips: "Is it for this? Why is that difficult?"

Alas, Toteachornottoteach, thisisaquestion.

I couldn't help but reject him, and I was afraid of teaching him bad. I shouldn't have appeared in his life. Without me, he could also become the prestigious archmage. And there is me? What role did I play in his history? Will it have a negative impact on him, thereby changing history? At least, he could not speak a modern Chinese anyway.

Seeing my silence, his hands were covering my hands, and the warmth of his palm quickly spread to my body: "Ai Qing, it was the Buddha who made me meet you. This relationship, Roche cherishes it. Rosh sincerely learns Chinese, Even if you don’t want to teach, wait until Guizi returns to the Chinese land, okay?"

The surplus water in the light gray eyes reflected my confused face. I'm just a hurried passer-by, even if the time-traversing watch is temporarily broken, I must go back, it's just a matter of time.

However, my journey can meet the younger Kumarajiva, and there is no need to explain the word "destiny". Our two lines of footprints are only occasionally overlapping. After this journey of life, there is no possibility of intersection. Why should I worry so much? As long as I am more careful and stop showing my modern characteristics, it should have no impact on history. The most important thing is that I really like to get along with this talented young man every day.

"That being the case, I will continue to teach you."

Climbing up from the ground, patting the dust on the buttocks: "You learned yesterday, and be gentle." I have to correct his modern Chinese.

He was delighted and surprised in his eyes, and it was probably not suitable for my classical Chinese, but he didn't say anything, so he quickly got up to get a sketchbook.

The next night, he appeared in my room with a copy of The Analects.

―――――――――――――――――Xiaochun's voiceover————————————————

Xuan Zang's "The Story of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty": "His vulgar sons used wooden heads to send their plaques." I saw a female bone in the Qizi Museum in Kuqa, Xinjiang. It was unearthed at the Subash Ruins, 1300 days ago Around the year, the skull is really flat.

The costume of King Qiuzi was based on the portraits of kings and queens in the Kizil Thousand Buddha Caves, around the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

Readers who are interested in Gu Guizi suggest to watch the seven episodes of CCTV10's "Discovery" series "The Lost Oasis." Introduce Qizi in terms of language, writing, customs, religion, music, etc. There is also the series "New Silk Road" filmed by CCTV in 2006, which contains an episode dedicated to the introduction of Kumarajiva. The title of the episode is "A Man's Turtle". The actor who plays Komorosh looks quite like Komurosh in my mind and is very handsome. Although it was a documentary, it didn't take a few minutes to appear, and there was no line, but the actor chose it very seriously.
