Smiling at the peach blossom fan, peach blossoms smile at the spring breeze

What Fang Mizhi didn't know was that he had long been targeted by the local government. Different from Fang Mizhi's desirelessness, the local government is extremely ambitious, and desperately hopes to make achievements to blind the eyes of the superiors, but the place is too small, the power is insufficient, and there is not much room for display. In this case, if you want to do something big, you must have something to do with the local bigwigs, and a big man like Fang Mizhi is the breakthrough. So the local decentralization included Fang Mizhi in the monitoring range, hoping that Fang Mizhi had some irregular small actions.

It's just that these days, Fang Mizhi has been an honest monk, and he doesn't even give local officials the opportunity to fish and enforce the law, which makes the local government very disappointed, and even a little anxious, I really want to criticize Fang Mizhi in person, he is too cowardly, no blood, ridicule him for forgetting the hatred of the family and the country, and can't wait to match Fang Mizhi with the rebels, and encourage Fang Mizhi to stand up against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty.

The local government didn't know Fang Mizhi's suffering, and Fang Mizhi didn't know that the local officials' dedication was booming, and he had been working hard to cultivate, but he couldn't have an epiphany. The harder I practice, the deeper the mundane thoughts become, the heavier the pain, and the more infatuated and evil thoughts become more and more intense, not only can I not reach the other side, but I almost drown in the sea of suffering, which is obviously a symptom of madness.

Fang Mizhi finally realized that he was not a monk and a monk. It is true that there are no laymen in the temple who disturb him with mundane things, but he himself has always indulged in the sea of suffering and cannot turn back. During this time, he read a lot of Buddhist scriptures and Zen teachings, and believed that he was a master of Buddhism and could ask questions to all the eminent monks, but this did not help him meditate.

During this period of being a monk, the outside world was still disturbed as always, and all the fears that made Fang Mi such as the sea and the mulberry field, the destruction of the country and the death of the family, and the parting of life and death made Fang Mi unable to turn a blind eye, unable to be indifferent, and unable to practice Buddhism with peace of mind.

Fang Mizhi was confused. He has been extremely smart since he was a child, but everything he learns, he can learn it at one point, and even those who have not learned it will touch the class, and there is never a puzzle that cannot be solved, and there is no book that cannot be read. Why can't you learn Zen Buddhism now?

After pondering for a while, Fang Mizhi came to a conclusion: This time it's not that I'm wrong, it's the law that's wrong, it's the way that's wrong. What the code refers to is a dead end, how to get to the other side?

Although Buddhism is not extensive, why don't you have no Buddha and no fate? Fang Mizhi divined another hexagram and found that there was indeed a problem with the name, so he changed his name again.

We are very curious, why did Fang Mizhi toss this name? Is the name so important? Why would such a smart individual bite this feudal superstition and refuse to let go?

There is no doubt about Fang Mizhi's IQ, his IQ is not only not worse than ours, but in fact hundreds of times stronger than us. We are not superstitious about changing names, just because we do not understand the important role of names, so the masters of scientific fortune-telling often say, "It is better to give a son an art than to give a son a thousand gold, and it is better to give a good name to a son than to give a son an art." If we had studied thoroughly and changed the name, we might have developed it earlier.

Of course, some people think this is nonsense, my life is up to me, I want to destroy me, I will destroy the sky, the current name is very good, don't change it, how can I love it!

After tossing for a while, Fang Mizhi finally figured it out, since he couldn't let go of the deeply attached Da Ming, then don't force himself to be ruthless, accompany it to the last journey, and send it to a funeral if it can't be saved. Just like a beloved is leaving, it is painful to accompany her on the last journey and watch her leave, but it is also heart-wrenching to wait for the result in silence.

Doctors do not heal themselves, people do not save themselves, Fang Mizhi's wisdom is not enough for him to see through the disturbances of the world, not enough to help him let go of the obsession of becoming a monk, while studying Buddhism, medicine and science, Fang Mizhi also contacted some comrades and colleagues to organize the anti-Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty.

Fang Mizhi knew that his kingdom and his king were terminally ill and could not be cured, but he still knew that he could not do it, although thousands of people went to me, this is the real warrior.

Of course, subconsciously, Fang Mizhi knew that the only chance for the resurrection of the Ming Dynasty was to ask for help from the unknown gods and Buddhas in the dark, which was also another important reason for him to enter meditation and seek the Tao.

In addition to the high merit and worship to become an immortal, it will be back to the intestines.

In case the Zen pass is broken, the beauty is like a jade sword and a rainbow.

Fang Mizhi's misdeeds were soon discovered by local officials. The local officials were overjoyed, and after waiting for so many years, they finally caught Fang Mizhi colluding with other anti-government forces, and couldn't wait to get the treasure, so they arrested Fang Mizhi from the temple and threw him into prison.

Although the prison food is very poor, you can occasionally see some meat, at least it is much better than being a monk.

The local officials caught a big fish, they were very excited, and personally interrogated Fang Mizhi, and at the same time wanted to do Fang Mizhi's ideological work, if it could be domesticated, it would be better, this was the original prince's master, and it was definitely a great achievement to win it for the Qing Dynasty to use.

Doing ideological work is not only language arts, it is far from enough to learn to play and sing, it is also necessary to know how to conduct psychological warfare, grasp both soft and hard hands, and not be ambiguous in special hard aspects. Human nature is cheap, three good words are not as good as a stick, you have to be ruthless when you should be ruthless, and taking out a knife to scare is often better than moving it with emotion and reasoning.

In order to domesticate Fang Mizhi as soon as possible, the local government not only carefully prepared the rhetoric, but also prepared the necessary props: a Qing army official uniform and a steel knife.

The meaning of both is too clear: the official uniform means that within the system, it can serve the people, and it can also bully men and women to be powerful; the meaning of the knife is very clear, indicating that the court is very irritable and impatient, either friend or foe, don't think that the victor will have forgiveness and benevolence, Yangzhou Ten Days and Jiading Three Massacres left nearly a million civilian corpses is a living example, the court gives you a chance You don't want it, then don't blame the court for having a bad hand. In short, the local government hopes that Fang Mizhi can take advantage of the transformation and development of the donkey under the slope to achieve a win-win situation for individuals and the government.

This choice is not difficult to make, most people will choose the former, and even it is worth taking two cuts for the sake of becoming an official.

Fang Mizhi is not a layman like us, he naturally has different ideas, he glanced at the official uniform lightly, and looked at the officer with sympathy like an idiot, and walked to the steel knife and stopped, putting on a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water, and his attitude of preferring to die was very obvious.

He once refused the invitations of Longqing and Yongli to be officials, and it can be seen that he did not have much interest in being an official at this time; he once risked being killed by Li Zicheng to cry for Chongzhen, which shows that he is not afraid to choose a steel knife. The people are not afraid of death, so why should they be afraid of death!

Under normal circumstances, survival is the first need of all living things, ants are still stealing life, not to mention people! The world, thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, wind and snow, handsome men and beautiful women, eating, drinking, gambling and gambling, there are countless beautiful things in the world that are worthy of attachment, how many people would rather live in humility and misery than die happily and gloriously, even if they live in a dung pit, they also use poetry and distant places as the belief to live.

But the strange thing is that there are always many people in this world who face death with a smile, embrace hell with open arms, and kneel down with the thighs of death begging to be taken away. There are often three reasons for this anomaly:

One is pain, some pain goes deep into the bone marrow more terrible than death, at this time death is not only not terrible, but liberation, and the grim smile of death is more fascinating than the smile of a lover.

The second is that there is no love in life, and the world in his eyes is only ugly and gray, without any warmth and tenderness.

The third is to feel that death is worth it, where righteousness lies, and the body can be martyred, and use death to exchange death for the victory of career, belief and feelings.

Returning to the topic, why did Fang Mizhi choose death? Because the above three points are all accounted for: the sudden change in the wind and clouds, and the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains have returned to another surname, and he is in pain and does not want to live; the internal struggle for power and profit in the Ming Dynasty is full of ugliness, "the southwest is more cloudy and dark, and whoever looks at Xinting with tears in his eyes", he has nothing to love in life; he has long wanted to die for the country, and it is better to die than to live in the world, and hate not to die on the day of Jiashen.

It is nature to be greedy for life and afraid of death, and to die calmly is to lose humanity.

In this way, Fang Mizhi is sick.

In addition, there is also a saying that Fang Mizhi had a hexagram before he was arrested, and the hexagram showed that there was no danger in this trip, so he dared to be strong.

The local government was deeply hurt by Fang Mizhi's contempt. Although he persuaded Fang Mizhi to surrender, he was eager to make meritorious contributions, but also to show the identity of the winner, trying to find a sense of superiority and achievement. I didn't expect that Fang Mizhi's oil and salt would not enter, and he still looked like he was on top, and his heart couldn't help but be angry, did you know whether I won or you won, why didn't you have the consciousness of being defeated! I don't ask you to kowtow and beg for mercy, at least show a respectful attitude and admit defeat, don't look at me with such condescending eyes? Is it okay? Is it true that the court is a mud bodhisattva who doesn't dare to kill you?

At the same time, the local officials felt that they were also sick, and if they were not sick, why should they force a reactionary monk to become an official?

In the end, the local government inexplicably acquitted Fang Mizhi.

After experiencing this prison disaster, Fang Mizhi thought about it, what kind of national hatred and family hatred, let it be, let it be, turn around and no longer worry, it is a foregone conclusion that the Qing people will enter the Central Plains, why make unnecessary sacrifices, and is the management of the Qing people really bad? Isn't it good to unify the country?

Fang Mizhi didn't think about these problems, he changed his name again, and continued to engage in his old profession - being a monk chanting scriptures, collecting medicine and practicing medicine without a license. In his spare time of chanting scriptures and practicing medicine, Fang Mizhi devoted his excess energy to scientific research and published papers, and published a large number of professional papers on ancient literature, ancient philosophy, ritual music, law, sound, light and shadow, astronomy, geography, writing, calligraphy and painting, medicine, qin and sword, technical courage and other professional papers, as well as literary works such as poems, lyrics, and scripts.

Just as Fang Mizhi was preparing to die in the mountains and forests, the officers and soldiers came to the door again. This time, it was reported that Fang Mizhi had ties with some members of the Restoration Society, and under the cover of his monk's robes, he had a sinister intention to overthrow the new imperial court.

The imperial court believed the words of the whistleblower and realized the seriousness of the problem: the rebellion of monks is more terrible than that of laymen, with the power of faith and the blessing of God.

The more the Qing court thought about it, the more afraid it became, and the patience given to Fang Mizhi was finally exhausted. Since benevolence is useless, then the court is about to show its fangs, and since Fang Mizhi doesn't want to be decent, then the court will help him be decent.

Soon, Fang Mizhi was arrested and escorted to Guangdong for trial.

When he was escorted to the panic beach in Wan'an, Jiangxi Province - the panic beach where "the panic beachhead said panic", Fang Mizhi died suddenly, and the cause of death is unknown. Some people say that it is the end of life, some say that it is the recurrence of the old injury that broke the joint, some people say that it is the martyrdom of the country, some people say that it is the death of the self-written health regimen, and some people say that it is the cultivation of the Buddha and the success of the Buddha and the ascension to the Buddha country.

Such a monk, literati, and old man were forced to death by the imperial court. Is the imperial court excessive? Not excessive. Obviously, he could have killed him directly for no reason, but he forcibly found a reason, and such a conscientious court made people have nothing to say.

Fang Mizhi is 61 years old this year, and he has not escaped the curse of his natal year.

Looking back on his life, we can find that there is too much helplessness in it: what the times need is a military strategist, politician, and conspirator, but he is just a scientist like a chicken rib; He had morality, but in the end he achieved nothing; medicine and Buddhism, which he studied in idleness and boredom, eventually became his tools for eating and his life's work; a Confucian student assumed the role of a warrior and used a knife to stab people; he could not become an official or become invisible; he could not die when he wanted to die, and he could not live when he wanted to live; he was acquitted when he engaged in counter-revolutionary work, and he was arrested when he was disheartened and left home and did not care about mundane affairs. This world is really wonderful.

Before the end of the story, he summed up his life of non-mourning with a poem:

The immortal Buddha is in a dilemma, and he only knows that he is uneven in the night.

Nine out of ten people are white-eyed, and they are scholars

To sum up the four sons of the late Ming Dynasty, Fang Mizhi and Chen Zhenhui are no worse than Mao Bijiang and Hou Fangyu, but why are the first two not as famous as the latter two? The reason is very simple: women.

We are laymen, we do vulgar things, lust is better than virtue, we can't be anti-vulgar like some noble artists, and the focus of attention is often on some vulgar things. In the eyes of those of us laymen, it is the country and the city that make Zhou Lang famous, and it is far better to listen to a report on the deeds of a model worker than to see more beauties. Because of this, Mao Bijiang and Hou Fangyu's affair with the opposite sex made the two of them full of grooves, so we talked about them, and Fang Mizhi and Chen Zhenhui, who were pure moral models, let us ignore them.
