The pastoral life outlined by countless pastoral poets is so carefree, cheerful and free that people can't help but yearn for it.
However, in today's society, although everyone is burdened with great pressure of life, there are very few people who can really let go of secular concerns and retire to the deep mountains and forests.
However, some people can really put aside their grievances, walk into the valley and return to the garden. He is "muddy" Let's walk into his story, into his family and learn about the life of such an "extraordinary master".
Wandering in Wudang, I met my mentor by chance.
Liu Ni, formerly known as Wu Yiqinzi, was born in Wuzhou, Guangxi. He was born in a poor family and went out to work when he was a child. But without a few years of schooling, I can only do odd jobs, and the pressure of life is still very heavy. Later, he was lucky enough to quit his job and wander around the world.
In 1990s, Liuni wandered to Wudang Mountain, where he met a mentor, perhaps by fate. The master took the initiative to accept mud as a disciple and taught him various skills, such as guqin, fencing and chess. Liuni devotes himself to learning all kinds of skills and actively studies higher abilities. Liuni stayed in Wudang for 16 years. Living in seclusion in the mountains not only honed his skills, but also gave him a heart to let go of his troubles.
In 2006, Liuni bid farewell to his teacher, went down the mountain alone and began to travel.
Returning to the "human world", but being deceived.
In the first few years down the mountain, I mainly traveled around by myself, and then I slowly began to adapt to the rhythm of normal life. He co-founded a Guqin firm with friends, engaged in trading and teaching Guqin. During this period, he received many invitations from abroad to exchange piano skills and chess skills in North America, Europe and other countries. From this point of view, it seems that mud has gradually returned to the lives of ordinary people, with a little "fireworks".
In 20 10, Liuni began to like hiking, cross-country and other exciting projects, joined many activity groups and explored the world in new ways. However, the good times did not last long. 1 year later, he and several friends set foot in road trip and came to Tibet. On the way, they met a particularly serious car accident. The disaster from the sky claimed the lives of two companions and several other friends were seriously injured. Fortunately, Liuni survived unscathed. While thanking himself for being blessed by God, he began to reflect on his life, the value and significance of his existence in the world, and realized what is called "impermanence of life".
So, he decided to return to Wudang Mountain and began to live in seclusion in the mountains. But to his disappointment, the Guqin shop he opened with his friends at that time had already been swept away by his friends, and all the Guqin and valuables in it were stolen, and his friends left him without any nostalgia. He paid a heavy price in the theft. Not only did he lose the guqin that he treasured for many years, but he also lost his few possessions to his customers.
Liu Ni returned to the days when she had no food or clothes to wear more than 20 years ago. One day, he made up his mind to go back to Wudang Mountain and the fields, and began his seclusion in Quanzhenguan Village on Shen Xi Road.
Pastoral retreat, tie the knot
In our opinion, life in the country should be boring, but Liuni and his disciples have solved everything very comfortably here. They only need to harvest some food to eat every day, and the rest of the time is playing chess and practicing swords. Their lives are very colorful. Everyone is like a big family every day, and the relationship between disciples is very harmonious.
It was on Wudang Mountain that Liuni met the love of his life, A Qin.
Formerly known as Zhu, a native of Hubei, once worked in Fujian. In the process of working, she suffered a lot like mud. Because of this, she hopes to find happiness from the mortal world in Wudang Mountain. At the beginning, A Qin took Liuni as his teacher. But in the process of getting along day and night, the two fell in love and got married soon. The name "Liuni" was also given to her husband by Zhu.
After marriage, they started a new life in other places. They rented an earthen house eight years ago, which was very shabby at first, but the husband and wife carefully built it, not only with curtains, but also with a new haystack, which was very livable. They began a real life of "men plowing and women weaving".
Every morning, Liuni meditates and asks questions with his disciples. In the afternoon, he will play chess, practice sword and learn guqin, while A Qin will guide his disciples to learn Chinese studies. During the break, they went to the vegetable field to take care of it a little. When there are abundant vegetables, food or honey left, disciples will pack them and take them down the mountain to sell. Sometimes, Liuni will be invited to attend some guqin meetings.
Today, Liuni and A Qin have two daughters, who are enjoying their family life in Wudang Mountain. A Qin thinks his life is very happy, and even thinks that "the air here is sweet". Seclusion not only brings inconvenience to this family, but also adds interest to life.
This seclusion was not discovered until 20 15. Several donkey friends discovered mudflow life while traveling in Wudang Mountain. They recorded everything here by video and posted it online, which attracted a lot of attention and discussion. While questioning their lives, more people are full of envy.
"Since the childhood idle down, should be very sad as a cloud. Xishan doesn't have to buy money to win. " The seclusion of Wudang Mountain Mud is not what outsiders call "seclusion", but an unusual way of life. This kind of life may be difficult for us to understand at present, but Liu Ni, his wife and his disciples have realized the true meaning of the world through this kind of life.
