Chapter 2 Up the Mountain
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was even more poisonous. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
A pergola has been erected above the courtyard dam, and Rao is still very hot.
A small square table was placed under the eaves, and Gu Xinyan sat on a small bench, on which the square yellow paper money was slowly placed and tied with red rope.
When I arrived at Qiaojiawa near noon, after drinking two bowls of gruel with pickles, Gu Xinyan began to work, and at this time, things were almost done.
The first thing is to make paper money.
The procedure for making paper money is simple, but it is difficult to do well.
First, use a guillotine to cut one side of jute paper, cut two knives horizontally, cut one knife vertically, divide it into six parts, and then take a half-foot-high jute paper and compact it on a wooden stake to fix it. Next, hold a hammer in your right hand and hold a chisel against the jute paper with your left hand to make holes in the jute paper one by one.
This is a test of craftsmanship, the hand holding the chisel must be steady, and the hand wielding the hammer must be accurate and ruthless, otherwise, the slightest mistake will become waste paper.
Even Luo Ping, a master, often discarded the yellow paper.
However, Gu Xinyan, who is a beginner, has never wasted a piece of paper.
I have only seen Luo Ping's demonstration once, Gu Xinyan will know, the first time I actually operated, the ending was very perfect, and later, there was no mistake or omission.
Born craftsman!
Luo Ping drank too much at one time and had this sigh.
It's okay to make paper money, but when it comes to paper people, none of the guys who eat this bowl of rice in these four miles and eight towns are not willing to bow down to Gu Xinyan. If the paper figure he tied was placed in a dimly lit room, and ten people entered the room, at least eight people would think of it as a living person at first glance.
In appearance, the paper figure is no different from other craftsmen.
The only difference is that the paper figure he tied seems to have a little more of something else, and no one can figure out what is more.
Gu Xinyan lifted the brush dipped in ink and gently moved forward.
The next moment, the paper virgin in front of her had a pair of black eyes.
The tip of the pen left, Gu Xinyan let go of his body, and the sunlight fell from behind him, falling straight on the paper man, and at that moment, a layer of purple smoke rose from the paper virgin.
This is not a delusion!
Gu Xinyan knew that although it was fleeting, this purple smoke was real, but only he could feel this purple smoke, and others could not see it.
The purple smoke was the breath that overflowed from his body.
This qi gave those paper people a touch of spirituality.
As for those who are bystanding, they will only think that the paper figures that care about their hearts are very weird.
Just like now, after Gu Xinyan tied the paper figure, no one would come to pick it up, so he could only take the paper figure to a remote room and put it away. In that room, few people enter it, and even if some people who don't know the details enter the room by mistake, they will feel inexplicably uncomfortable and will soon come out.
Tie up this virgin, and he will be finished.
After placing these things in the room designated by Jiang Sanye earlier, Gu Xinyan walked out of the house.
Glancing at the crowded courtyard dam, he walked towards the ridge below the courtyard dam.
There, the second uncle Luo Pingzheng was talking to a middle-aged fat man.
He knew the fat man with three chins, his surname was Du Songtao, and his surname was Du The captain of the town's locked cheerleaders, Qingshui Town was dozens of miles away, and he was inevitably present at those funerals and funerals. He is also a good friend of his second uncle, and the two often get together for a little drink when they are fine.
Seeing Gu Xinyan coming over, Luo Ping asked out loud.
"Finished?"
Gu Xinyan nodded.
"Okay, follow me up the mountain in a moment!"
"Going up the mountain so soon?"
On the side, Jun Songtao was surprised.
"Hmm!"
Luo Ping nodded.
"In such a hurry?"
Jun Songtao's face is not very good-looking.
"I can't help it! What the hell is the weather! It's so hot......"
After a pause, Luo Ping continued.
"Jiang Sanye said that if it stops for a long time and the smell is too big, why don't you just keep it all night today and send it up the mountain tomorrow...... So, I'm going up the mountain this afternoon to look for land. ”
"Time is tight, can you find a good land?"
"Of course not, but, some time ago, I went up the mountain to find a few good pieces of land, and I just moved one piece to the Qiao family!"
"That's it!"
Jun Songtao glanced around, approached Luo Ping, and lowered his voice.
"Qiao Liu is a carpenter, he has no other hobbies except for greedy for that glass of wine, his foundation is very thick, the boss of the Qiao family works on the railway again, and he holds an iron rice bowl, and the funeral is so simple to say! He is also not afraid of the gossip of his next-door neighbor...... Why don't you go talk to Jiang Sanye again? ”
Luo Ping glanced at Jun Songtao with a smile.
"I've already said what I need to say, this is it...... You can only say whatever you want! ”
Jun Songtao pursed his fat lips, and a smile squeezed into his fermented steamed bun-like face.
"That's what I said."
Luo Ping ignored him, turned to Gu Xinyan who was waiting on the side and said.
"Grab the compass guy and follow me up the mountain."
Gu Xinyan didn't speak, he raised the yellow army satchel he was carrying on his shoulder, and the outfits needed to find the dragon points were already prepared and put in the bag.
"Your nephew is really good, he does things neatly."
Jun Songtao gave a thumbs up and gave a thumbs up.
"Hey......
Luo Ping smiled.
"Little child, Mokua."
"That's it, you go up the mountain, I'll go to find Jiang Sanye, and then probe his tone......"
With that, Jun Songtao turned away and turned to leave.
Not long after, Gu Xinyan followed Luo Ping to Hualong Mountain behind Qiaojiawa, accompanied by a group of helpers. They carried shovels, hoes, steel mills, hammers and other tools, and when they arrived at the place, they would dig the cemetery under the guidance of Luo Ping, dig the cemetery today, and carry the coffin directly up the mountain early tomorrow morning for burial.
In the countryside, whether it is a happy event or a funeral, the surrounding neighbors or good friends will come to help, today you help me, tomorrow I will help you, very humane.
A group of people were noisy and gossiping, walking along the mountain path.
Gu Xinyan carried a military satchel and followed behind Luo Ping, keeping his head down, his eyes only falling on the ground in front of his toes.
No one spoke to him.
Gu Xinyan is filled with an aura that no one should enter, even those men who like to make jokes about young people will not come to tease him.
A person who is different is a monster.
In a group society, monsters are inevitably ostracized.
If you care about this rejection, then you will feel hurt, and if you don't care, then you are completely isolated from society. Of course, if you are strong enough and have great strength, then you will be a genius and become a big man who is worshiped by the general public.
Whether it's a genius or a monster, Gu Xinyan doesn't care.
He is only immersed in his own world and goes his own way.
After walking along the mountain path for more than half an hour, and after crossing two hills, you will arrive at your destination.
Below him is a gentle hillside, about forty or fifty degrees of slope, and a green pine forest grows on the slope, in the forest, some steamed bun-like graves flickering and scattered.
When I raised my head, there was an open space in front of me, and a wind blew in my face, bringing the coolness of the mountains and forests. In the distance, a mighty river like a yellow dragon envelops the mountains. In the valley below, a long serpentine winds a railway, and at this moment, a train is passing through the valley.
"Buzz ......"
The whistle sounded for a long time, and at the front of the car, a wisp of white smoke flew high, forming a white column of smoke that crossed the sky for a long time.
"It's on the ground!"
Luo Ping pointed to the slope below and said loudly.
"Master Luo, have you arrived?"
"Well, here it is!"
Luo Ping looked proud.
"It's impossible to find a good crypt in one afternoon...... I found this crypt some time ago, and I deliberately left a secret note, since the Qiao family is in a hurry, I gave it to his family......"
"Well, this place is good, the old man of the Xia family in the town is also buried here, and now, the Xia family is developed, and there are several contract foremen......"
Next to him, someone accosted.
Then, the group slowly descended down the mountain along a temporary path, and after walking for twenty or thirty meters, they came to a gentle place, which was several meters round, like a table placed in the middle of the slope. There were no pine trees growing on the ground, only a layer of moss, and on the moss crawled a nest of green vines, on which bloomed thin yellow flower bones.
Luo Ping strode to the middle of the clearing and pulled up a wooden stick stuck in the ground.
"The treasure is here!"
"Master Luo, what do you mean by this?"
Someone asked aloud.
"Yang Gong once said that where there is a true acupoint, there must be a tide source of water to gather, the so-called mountains with the water bend and bend, there are holes in the middle...... That is to say, the earth qi can not cross the water, water is the natural boundary of the earth qi, so the water surrounds, can gather gas, water does not bend, bend the qi is complete, water does not gather chaotically, and the dragon will ......"
"Who is Yang Gong?"
Another man spoke.
"Yang Gongyunsong, a geography master of the late Tang Dynasty, is a recognized ancestor of our feng shui industry, if it is not for us, it is naturally unfamiliar."
Then, Luo Ping turned to look at Gu Xinyan.
"Gu Xinyan, look at the terrain here, the big river meanders here, encircling this place, it doesn't look like a circular arc, you take out the compass and calculate, is this place on the diameter of the circle?"
With that, the compass smiled proudly.
"This is the Yin with the Yang Dynasty, the Yang with the Yin Dynasty, the Yin and Yang see each other, the principle of Fu Lu Yongzhen, there must be a good point at the feet, plus, there is a natural book case in front of the hole, buried here, the descendants will definitely produce the champion's talent! Tsinghua University and Peking University are also in the palm of their hand, and studying abroad is also common! ”
"Really?"
The crowd was in an uproar.
Even if you don't have much culture, you know the name of Tsinghua University and Peking University, and in the minds of everyone, studying abroad is even more lofty.
"It's more real than real gold!"
Luo Ping's eyes widened and he said categorically.
"I've never spoken lightly, and if I say something, I will not lie about it!"
"Master Luo is amazing!"
Someone stepped forward and gave a thumbs up.
A group of people surrounded Luo Ping, saying words of praise, in the crowd, Luo Ping's expression was solemn, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and it was difficult to hide his excitement and pride.
Ji Xue?
Gu Xinyan sighed and walked away, silent, and did not speak.
