Chapter 3 The Barbershop's Proprietress
Sun Ji is also the manager of the Zhongnanshan Religious Office, so when Li Zhi comes, he will tell the front desk to find the shopkeeper, which is a way to identify himself.
Of course, this identity is also divided into legal and illegal, and Li Zhi indicates a legitimate Taoist identity.
Sun Ji let go of his hand: "Mr. Li Zhi and I will go to the office, where is it more convenient to talk." ”
Li Zhi followed Sun Ji to the religious affairs office, which was on the second floor of the Zhongnanshan Tourism Office.
Only then did Li Zhi know that the entire religious office was just an office.
In the office, Sun Ji made tea for Li Zhi again, and talked about his relationship with Huaihua Taoist.
His voice was slightly hoarse, with a deep taste: "The contemptible person is the junior of the Huaihua Daoist, and the family asked me to help the Daoist deal with some chores." He is the only one who will let people come to me directly, and I am not responsible for the management of other Taoist priests. ”
Li Zhi nodded clearly, although Huaihua Daoren didn't say anything, Li Zhi had already guessed partially, but he didn't expect him to be the old man's junior.
"The master occasionally mentions his past in the world, but I never thought that the master has descendants. ”
Hearing Li Zhi say this, Sun Ji lowered his head in amazement: "It's because we're sorry for his old man, this time is not enough for outsiders, if you want to know, you can ask the Taoist chief in person if you have the opportunity in the future." Shame shame. ”
Li Zhi was noncommittal, took out the envelope, and handed it to Sun Ji. These things have little to do with Li Zhi, and even with Huaihua Daoren.
"This is the letter that my master asked me to bring to you when I went down the mountain. ”
Sun Ji took it with both hands, and he was afraid that Li Zhi was still here, so he chatted with Li Zhi without a match, and did not read the letter, Li Zhixin was like a mirror.
"Mr. Sun Ji, you read the letter first, if it weren't for this time the master asked me to wait for you to read the letter before leaving, I wouldn't be so uninteresting. ”
Sun Ji listened to Li Zhi's joke, and was also a little amused at his abnormality today: "Mr. is smiling, it's me who is blunt." ”
Li Zhi didn't say anything, just motioned for him to read the letter, and he closed his eyes and recuperated.
After a while, Li Zhi opened his eyes, ten minutes had passed, and no matter how long the letter was, he had finished reading it.
Sun Ji had already put the letter away and sat quietly on the sofa, waiting for Li Zhi.
Seeing Li Zhi open his eyes, Sun Ji spoke: "Daoist Huaihua has already made the purpose of Mr. going down the mountain clearly in the letter, I don't know when Mr. is going to leave, what can I help you?"
After Sun Ji read the letter, he was more polite to Li Zhi, even respectful, Li Zhi could see it, but he didn't care.
"You don't need anything else, can you help me cut my hair and change my clothes before sending me to Xi'an?"
Although Li Zhi felt that the Taoist robe was extremely comfortable to wear, he just wanted not to attract attention.
People who are in the limelight will always have a lot of trouble.
Sun Ji is a middle-aged man after all, although he was a little relaxed in front of Li Zhi, a person who 'looks like a young man', but now he doesn't dare to slack off.
After all, Huaihua Taoist wrote in the letter: I accepted Li Zhi as a disciple in 1969.
Fortunately, Li Zhi had his eyes closed at that time, otherwise he would have seen Sun Ji looking at him like a ghost.
Although he was skeptical, Sun Ji still tried his best to explain it with the words 'Taoist practice, which is wonderful', after all, he is past the age of explaining the world with his own common sense.
Sun Ji took Li Zhi downstairs and went to the barber shop he frequented in the tourist town.
Barber shops are relatively few in tourist attractions, because the haircuts are usually locals in the scenic spots, and they can't make a fortune for tourists.
The barber shop that Sun Ji brought Li Zhi to was also of average grade, so there were no bunch of people who came up to shout welcome to Guanlin, and Li Zhi was very satisfied.
There was only one woman in the barbershop, in her thirties, Fengzi Yeli, watching Sun Ji and the two enter the store, and greeted him with a smile: "Mr. Sun is here, who is this Taoist?"
Sun Ji didn't say anything: "The Taoist chief wants to cut his hair." ”
He turned back to Li Zhi and said, "If Mr. has any requirements, just mention it to the proprietress and I'll wait for you outside the door." ”
After Sun Ji finished speaking, he went to sit down on a chair in front of the barber shop and took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket.
Sun Ji doesn't mean that Li Zhi will do something reluctant, but that he has been with Li Zhi for a long time, and he has a feeling of facing elders, but Sun Ji doesn't dislike elders.
It's just that the elders have a face of about 20, which really makes Sun Ji feel...
Out of sight, out of mind.
The proprietress didn't have Sun Ji's troubles, she only thought that Li Zhi was a Taoist priest who wanted to return to the vulgar.
The tone of coquettishness and Li Zhi laughed: "Xiao Dao Chang looks like he is twenty years old, and he is only vulgar because of the rippling spring heart?"
The proprietress made Li Zhi blush, although his heart had been cultivated for fifty years, he was an eighteen-year-old young man before he was reborn.
Knowledge and experience are two different things, and this red face is the proof of this truth!
The proprietress was looking for a cloth for a haircut, and turned around to let Li Zhi sit down.
Li Zhi sat down on the seat near the door, his face bowed.
"Dao Chief, you look up. ”
Li Zhi raised his head slightly, his red face exposed in the mirror.
"Poof, hahaha!"
The proprietress saw Li Zhi, whose face was flushed, appear in the mirror, and was stunned for a moment, and then laughed. Because of the laughter, the richness of the chest has a wonderful rhythm, and the spring color is moving.
From the mirror, Li Zhi looked at the proprietress in a low-neck T-shirt and smiled, her face turned even redder, and her head lowered again.
The proprietress is a divorced young woman, and the barber shop has been open for three years, and all the men who come here are men.
But like Xiao Taoist, who is more mature than his peers, but can't help but laugh and blush, is really the first one.
Sun Ji, who was outside the door, heard the laughter of the proprietress and looked back to see a picture that made him a little stunned.
A young woman with a ponytail is holding a cloth in one hand and smiling with the other, and the young man in the barber chair is spread out behind the chair and hangs his head.
Sun Ji quickly turned his head and grinned, beginning to feel that Li Zhi was a little cute.
The proprietress of the shop helped Li Zhi put on a cloth and gently used her hands to help him straighten out his hair that was a little messy because of his hair.
Li Zhi naturally couldn't lower his head anymore, and in order to avoid embarrassment, he simply closed his eyes and recited the heart-clearing mantra in his heart.
It's a pity that the proprietress doesn't plan to let go of this little Taoist.
"Xiaodao chief, I knew that today was still vulgar, why bother to delay the good young man to go to the mountain, it is not worth going down the mountain at this time. ”
Li Zhi opened his eyes again, but he was much calmer: "Cultivation must be quiet, I can't calm down, naturally I have to return to the vulgar." ”
After a pause, Li Zhi continued: "The master said that the gains and losses in the world are material, cultivation is the cultivation of the mind, the gain is gain, and the loss of the heart is the loss, and if I can't calm down, I am a mortal person." Therefore, it is not my decision to be vulgar, but the decision of my heart. ”
After hearing this, the proprietress pouted: "What is it that makes you unable to calm down?
Li Zhi smiled gently: "The master said that it was fate, I advocate Taoism, and I have wanted to be a Taoist priest since I was a child." ”
The proprietress was very touched and sighed: "Hey, the choice, right or wrong is up to you, you are still young, and the future can be expected." ”
Li Zhi smiled and thanked him.
