14 That's a lot
There was a line of people walking by the edge of the animal. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info They bow in three steps, and move forward in five steps and one knock.
"Who are they?" Congshan asked Yuelou.
"They are followers of Tibetan Buddhism, and there must be a temple ahead." Yuelou smiled, "Why don't we go and have a look?"
Yuelou slowly walked to the side of the group, while Congshan followed. Yuelou looked at their pious faces, and was not very awe-struck.
She also retreated to Congshan's side: "The power of religion is really great! It can make people come from far and wide to worship, and it can make people happy, happy, and comfortable." ”
But religion can also make people lazy, dismotivated, and tolerant. ”
But why do people have to have fighting spirit? Isn't it better to be calm, comfortable, and self-sufficient? Isn't it true that a person who desires a lot will not be happy for the rest of his life. ”
"Is it also a desire to live well and eat well?"
"Yes, definitely. All people need is a bed and three simple meals. If you want to live in a big house, drive a good car, and eat delicacies from the mountains and seas, isn't it just desire?"
As they discussed, they came to an abrupt mountain.
The mountain road is rugged and circling, and the temple is on the mountainside.
Even when the group went up the mountain, they kept bowing. A little girl was visibly exhausted and staggering, but her parents still made her bow.
Yuelou walked over and said, "You see that she is about to fall, and you still let her kowtow?"
"If she falls, she can get up, if she doesn't respect the Buddha, she can only be unfortunate for the rest of her life." The girl's father had a burning eye.
Yuelou didn't know what to say, but just looked at the girl's pious eyes with pity. She suddenly resented religion as well.
They are still bowing down.
I saw an old man kneeling on the ground with difficulty. The veins on the back of his hands swelled, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.
But he still tried to kowtow.
Suddenly, he leaned forward and fell to the ground. Yuelou hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, but he knelt down quickly and fell to the ground.
The red walls of the temple are mottled, revealing a little white background. Yuelou reached out and touched the red wall, and suddenly felt a strong melancholy attack his heart from his fingertips.
Entering the courtyard, you can see a triple cornice. Behind the cornices is a towering stone mountain.
Yuelou Satoyama followed them into the temple. Although the courtyard is dilapidated, the temple is carved and painted, and it is splendid. People knelt in front of the Buddha and kowtowed and made wishes, not daring to look into the eyes of the Buddha and the eighteen Arhats.
Yuelou did not kneel, she stared at the Buddha's discerning eyes, and the fire of anger burned in her eyes.
The two drank the butter tea handed by the temple disciples, and bowed to the temple disciples in return. The crowd stood up and walked into the back hall. The back hall is the place where the scriptures are hidden, and there are more than a dozen prayer wheels with gold characters on a blue background.
Yuelou turned the prayer cylinder with them and walked out of the temple angrily.
When Uliji heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him, Yuelou was already sitting beside him. Smoke billowed from his mouth.
"Let me try one too". Yuelou smiled elegantly.
"This is smoked by the big guys". Uligi said and handed the cigarette to Congshan, who waved his hand and didn't take it.
"If you don't smoke, you're not a man!" Uligi said, his mouth wide open.
"You don't give it if you want to smoke, but you want to give it to him if you don't smoke." Yuelou picked up a handful of grass and threw it forward.
"Huh". Wu Liji lowered his head in embarrassment and handed the cigarette to Yuelou, "It's not good to smoke, just have fun." ”
"It's not good, you're still smoking, isn't that cheap?"
Ulligi smiled even more awkwardly. He suddenly felt that Yuelou was very cute, and he didn't realize that he looked at her a few more times. He lit the smoke for the moon tower. As soon as Yuelou took a sip, he coughed violently. She clenched her knees so tightly that she even coughed up tears.
Congshan patted her on the back warmly and said, "You are really reckless, look how uncomfortable you are." ”
Yuelou wiped the tears on her eyelashes and said with a smile: "You will never know what it feels like if you don't taste it." ”
"You are really a different kind of woman!" Wu Liji looked at Cong Shan enviously and said, "You kid is so happy that you can marry such a woman." ”
"I'll ...... her" Congshan hadn't finished speaking, and Yuelou had already pushed him so hard that he was lying on the lawn.
Congshan stood up and looked at Yuelou angrily, and said, "You are so annoying!"
"Who told you to say that kind of thing?" Yuelou said angrily.
"I'm not done yet, how do you know what I'm talking about?"
"Isn't that obvious?"
"Why are you so unreasonable?"
"It's obvious that you said the wrong thing." Yuelou glared at Congshan without showing weakness.
Watching them quarrel, Uligi didn't persuade, but kept smiling.
Isn't it very common for husbands and wives to quarrel?
The old man's daughter-in-law rode on the back of the sheep, and the old man squatted in front of the sheep.
"What are they doing?" Yuelou asked, "Why are the sheep crying so miserably?"
"Maybe it's medicine for the sheep," Satoyama guessed.
As they walked over, the old man's dagger had been pulled out of the sheep's throat. Sheep blood sprayed on the grass like a balloon filled with water bursting.
The old man raised his bleeding face and said with a smile: "You will leave tomorrow and cook mutton for you today!"
The sheep was still bleeding, it was even crying, and it hadn't fallen yet. It gasped, as if it had been choked by some unknown force. With every gasp, a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth.
It couldn't hold it anymore and fell to its knees. After a while, it tried to stand up again with its left hoof. It struggled, and its body trembled violently.
Suddenly, it fell to the ground with a thud.
Yuelou burst into tears, sitting by the fire and thinking about what the old man said:
Life is inherently cruel, and the law of the jungle is inherently the fundamental law of human society and nature.
"It is indeed the law of nature that sheep eat grass, and wolves eat sheep. Everyone will be jealous, resentful, and desired, so whether people kill people or war, they are all the true face of human beings. ”
"We have to learn to understand, to forgive, to forgive. ”
"Life is tragic, even though we know that we will eventually die, we still have to cherish life and strive for a more peaceful life. ”
The old man's granddaughter ran over, squatted by the fire, looked at Yuelou in a wink, and said, "Sister, my head is itchy, can you help me catch lice?"
"Lion, how can there be a lion on your head?" Yuelou was puzzled.
The girl felt something move in her hair, and with a stroke of her hand, two lice fell off.
Two of them fell in one stroke!
She raised her hand and let Yuelou see: "This is lice." ”
"How can you have such a thing on your head?" Yuelou said as she looked at the lice, feeling that it was disgusting.
"I don't know, but there are often anyway. It's itchy. ”
"It should be that your hair is too dirty?" Yuelou touched the girl's unkempt hair and frowned.
"There are a lot of kids! Some girls even throw lice at the boys' heads. ”
Yuelou smiled from ear to ear, and she hugged the girl into her arms and carefully caught lice for her.
The morning breeze was cold, and Yuelou buttoned the last button of the wind.
"You're gone, I don't know if you'll see you again." The old man trembled his beard and said sadly.
"We'll be back soon". Yuelou wrapped her arms around the old man's arms and said affectionately, "You have to take good care of your body!"
"Well, next time I come and see your children." The old man looked at Yuelou kindly and said.
"I'll let you kiss her then." Yuelou said with a smile.
"I don't want to kiss her, I want to kiss you." Uliji on the side was joking.
Yuelou glanced at Wu Liji and said with a smile: "You really want to do a lot!"
Yuelou and Congshan landed at Xiamen Airport.
This is a dedicated helicopter parking lot that looks clean and tidy. On the ground is a lawn.
Yuelou saw the lawn and remembered her experience in Mongolia, and suddenly felt a faint sadness.
She sat down on the lawn, turned a piece of grass to her fingers, and gently plucked it. The cleaner saw someone sitting on the lawn and took a few steps closer.
She is facing the moon tower. Yuelou saw her approaching and smiled kindly at her. The cleaner did not respond. She lowered her head, shook her head and sighed and walked away.
"Why didn't she smile at me?" Yuelou said strangely.
"People think you're a fool." Satoyama smiled, "Do you see anyone else sitting?"
Yuelou turned his head and looked: the other planes were full of men and women in suits and leather shoes, with elegant temperaments, and they looked at themselves like they were looking at a monster.
"Isn't it just sitting on the lawn? what's the big deal." Yuelou said angrily.
"No one else sits on the lawn, only you sit, and you are an outlier. An outlier will always attract the attention and incomprehension of others. ”
"Then I'd rather be an outlier." Yuelou's gaze seemed so clean and pure.
"To be honest, I like you a lot. But you do go too far sometimes. A woman is a woman after all, and it is better to be soft and submissive, and a woman with a personality can sometimes make people feel uncomfortable. ”
"Yes? I think women with personalities are better. If I were like everybody, saying the same things and doing the same things, wouldn't my life be boring?
"You still want other men to pay attention"?
Seeing Congshan angry, Yuelou hurriedly stood up, hugged his neck, and said, "I will only love you alone in my life." ”
"I'm just kidding, of course I know you won't". Satoyama laughed.
"You're so nasty". Yuelou bit Congshan's neck lightly and said.
"The feeling here is a little different from Xi'an, as if the air is more comfortable and clean. ”
"Xi'an is drier, but in the south, of course it's wet. Besides, the smog in Xi'an is so big, who can stand it?"
"Also, the smog is really, it's really annoying." Yuelou chirped.
They said as they made their way to the antechamber. The front hall was crowded, but not loud. There are a lot of foreigners here. Yuelou and Congshan had never seen so many foreigners, so they didn't feel like they had seen a few more times.
"You still don't like Chinese culture, look at how many foreigners come to China to travel!" Yuelou looked at the men and women, old and young foreigners, and said.
"I didn't say I didn't like Chinese culture, I just preferred European culture in comparison. ”
"I've never understood why you have a soft spot for European culture?"
"I think both the Europeans and the European architecture are very romantic. Chinese architecture has always felt a bit monotonous. ”
"Maybe it's also a loss of belonging?"
"Then you don't want to stay in China, hmph!" Yuelou snorted.
"Hehe, I'm just talking. Anyway, after all, it's your own country. ”
A foreign couple walked hand in hand. They have gray hair and a leisurely expression.
The moment their eyes met, it was like a spring breeze, blowing away thousands of flowers.
When Congshan saw them, he was full of envy: "Look at them, couples who can walk hand in hand for a lifetime are the happiest." ”
"We can too! As long as we cherish each other, a lifetime is like a day, and it's too short!" Yuelou turned his head and said seriously.
"I always felt that it was not easy for the two of us to get along. Personalities, experiences, and living habits are all different, and the possibility of separation is still quite large. ”
"Believe in yourself and believe in the other side. Vigorous love can't last a lifetime. Husbands and wives become friends when they get along for a long time. Friends who can tolerate each other, understand and forgive each other can naturally go on for a lifetime." Moon Corridor Road.
"Maybe so." Congshan was stunned.
"What do you mean maybe? That's it, okay, as long as you pay attention to each other, everything is possible." Yuelou stared at Congshan's eyes, word by word.
Outside the airport is a large lawn. There is a sparkling river on the lawn.
As soon as Yuelou saw the lawn and the river, he thought of the grassland, the grilled fish, the bathing in the river, and the swan......
"Do you remember those swans?" Yuelou said excitedly.
"Of course I remember! I always thought that swans were noble and cold to people. I didn't expect them to take the initiative to come to us and let us hold them in their arms. ”
"Yes, I can still feel the swans' smooth feathers and the warmth of their bodies." Yuelou hugged Congshan as he spoke, and said, "Let's go play in a few months, okay?"
"Of course, but don't bathe in the river anymore. ”
Yuelou was puzzled: "Don't we all feel very comfortable? The green grassland, the clear river, the beautiful swans, and the warm sunshine are all in the city. Is there a better place in the world to enjoy it? Is there a better place in the world to bathe?"
"You have to wash you, I will never accompany you again". Satoshi said with a frown.
"Why?"
"It's awkward! I always feel like there are a lot of people peeping in the dark. ”
"You have a lot of problems!" Yuelou said with a smile.
