Chapter 18 The Trip to Wutai
Su Xiaoman also remembered the starry sky of the North and South Temples at this moment, nodded with a smile and said, "Of course I know, let's go." ”
Qin Xiao continued: "I miss the sycamore leaves and slippers very much, but I don't know how they are now. ”
Su Xiaoman said: "I went to see them before I came before, and they were very good, and I will go back to see them this time." ”
Qin Xiao smiled: "That's good......"
The sky is deep, the stars are brilliant, in China, it is difficult to see this kind of brilliant starry sky, the north and south temples are one, here is one. Qin Xiao felt that with the starry sky, there was a place for him to open his heart, and he could use his heart to talk to the entire heaven and earth, all things, and the universe, and relieve the depression brought about by the tightening of his heart in the world.
Qin Xiao suddenly asked Su Xiaoman, "When do you plan to leave?" ”
Su Xiaoman replied: "Since you arrived today, I will leave tomorrow." ”
Qin Xiao suddenly had an idea, so he said: "Tomorrow is the weekend, I'm going to go to Wutai Mountain to play once, or you can accompany me on a trip, so that I can have a companion." ”
Su Xiaoman knew that Qin Xiao was reluctant to give up on himself, and he was not good at disobeying, so he agreed.
The sky is beautiful, the sky is clear, Qin Xiao and Su Xiaoman went to Wutai Mountain together, because Xiaoman had to go directly after swimming in Wutai Mountain, so there was a lot of luggage, so Qin Xiao simply didn't bring anything, and directly took most of Su Xiaoman's luggage and set off together.
After walking for a long time, I finally arrived at the small station in the mountains. In fact, this small station was originally used by tourists to visit Wutai Mountain, but Qin Xiao will also save the general distance from this mountain to the mountain, so when he wants to enter Makou Village, he will also take a car to this place first and then enter the mountain.
Since they wanted to visit Wutai Mountain, they naturally would not leave directly by car, so the two walked directly from the small station to the north to Wutai Mountain.
But when I arrived, I realized that there are six big temples in the entire Wutai Mountain area, such as Nanchan Temple, Yanshan Temple, Guangji Temple, etc.; Small temples such as Bishan Temple and Longquan Temple are also old. There are about a dozen of them. These places have now been contracted out, and there are basically not many monks who are serious anymore, and the business model of the North and South Temples is the same, if you follow this model. Qin Xiao couldn't help but feel lost, because he would never find Meng Haichang like this.
Qin Xiao is like a fish that has dried up, at first he was very excited to hear the news about the monk, but now, he is like being in the ocean of the temple. The tear he was looking for was gone, and he had no clue.
However, Su Xiaoman was in high spirits, and he didn't see a temple building, so if he didn't understand, he asked Qin Xiao to explain what it was used for and what it was called. However, Qin Xiao felt that this kind of temple used the contract system, which was just an empty shell, and it could not be said that the master did not have it, but it was rare, and most of them did not understand Buddhism. A fake monk who eats and drinks together. Originally, Qin Xiao felt that there was no hope of finding Meng Haichang, and he was upset, and when he saw these fake monks, he couldn't help but feel a little disgusted.
However, Su Xiaoman kept leading Qin Xiao around, and at noon, he drank a bowl of expensive noodles in a noodle restaurant and started to play again.
Unconsciously, the two arrived at Zhenhai Temple. Zhenhai Temple is a famous temple of Tibetan Buddhism, because Wutai Mountain is located at the junction of the Central Plains and Western ethnic minorities, so it is the gathering place of Tibetan Buddhism and Han Buddhism. Although the temple building is simple and dignified, once you enter it, you will notice the difference from other temples.
First of all, this temple was built in the Qing Dynasty, so there are many cultural elements of the Qing Dynasty in it. Secondly, some decorative pictures, you can see the shadow of the mandala sand table, looking at these pictures, the most touching thing is the insignificance touched by a grain of sand and the prosperity and order of the vast world they compose, as well as reincarnation and endless life.
At this time, Qin Xiao's mood eased a lot. also patiently explained to Su Xiaoman what little he knew about Tibetan Buddhism, but Su Xiaoman still cast an admiring gaze.
A monk came out of this matter and saw Qin Xiao staring at the mural whose clothes were very similar to the mandala sand table, so he stepped forward and said:
"It seems that the donor likes this mural."
Qin Xiao replied: "Yes, looking at it makes people think of the wonder of the world. ”
But Qin Xiao suddenly returned to reality at this moment, and said: "Master, I have some mundane things to bother you, I don't know if you can sue me." ”
Qin Xiao saw that this monk was not young, and if he had seen Meng Haichang, he would definitely know, so he couldn't answer whether he agreed with this monk, so he asked directly:
"Excuse me, have you ever seen a monk who knows how to heal? He is especially good at trauma. He's an older monk, and to be honest, I don't even know if he's still alive today, and I don't know if he's gone to Bliss forever. ”
The monk thought about it for a long time and said, "I really don't know that such a senior should ask the benefactor not to blame." ”
Qin Xiao also understands that when Meng Haichang became a monk, it was just when the People's Republic of China was founded, a monk at that time, who still remembers, and these monks don't know what their origin is, they work here during the day, and they don't know where they go back to their homes at night. Qin Xiao sighed, and left the temple in vain.
Su Xiaoman also saw that Qin Xiao had been looking forward to the appearance of something, or that he could find something, but he didn't know what he was looking for, so it was inconvenient to ask.
Walking briskly all the way down the mountain, half an hour, the two returned to the small station, at this time it was already three or four o'clock in the afternoon, Qin Xiao said:
"To be honest, I came here for a purpose, but I didn't get my wish, you have to leave, and I don't know when I will meet again."
Su Xiaoman knew that Qin Xiao had never been like this, probably because he didn't find what he was looking for today, and his mood was so lost, that the words of farewell seemed rare and desolate, so Su Xiaoman hugged him with a smile and said:
"I don't know what you're doing, but I know what you think, you just do what you think, I also have something to deal with, and I'm done dealing with it, when I come to you again, I'll definitely surprise you."
Qin Xiao wondered, but didn't ask much, but also hugged Su Xiaoman tightly, Xiaoman felt that there was no time to be happier than at this time, Su Xiaoman was even a little reluctant, she was thinking about whether it was right for her to leave like this and let Qin Xiao suffer here alone, just about to speak.
But at this moment, Qin Xiao let go of his arm and said:
"Let's go, it's not early, if you don't take the car, it'll be late."
When Su Xiaoman heard this, he also held back what he was about to say, and said, "I know, you also take care, I believe that what should come will definitely come." ”
Xiao Man's words are not only encouraging Qin Xiao, and his hard work will definitely have good results, but also to say that the two of us will have a chance to meet.
Qin Xiao sent Xiao Man to the car, and without looking back, he left in stride. Su Xiaoman knew that Qin Xiao had always been like this, and she was always reluctant to show her tender side, but Xiao Man had long known that Qin Xiao's heart was more tender than anyone else's, so she couldn't help laughing.
When the car started, Qin Xiao heard the mechanical sound of the engine in the distance, but he couldn't help but look back at the car that was getting farther and farther away, and stood still for a moment before getting up and rushing to Makou Village.
Qin Xiao returned to his previous life: teaching, seeing a doctor, and doing practical things. Qin Xiao's mood is also much calmer now, although he has a lot of doubts that he has not resolved, but he understands that the top priority is to overcome this scientific research related to the Qin family's secret recipe, so that he can be willing to carry out the next step.
This kind of life went on as always, but Qin Xiao received a letter from Luo Chuan, and Luo Chuan mentioned in his heart that there was a large loss of drugs in his factory, and he needed Qin Xiao's help to reduce the cost, Qin Xiao knew that this matter was very tricky, and he couldn't go over it anyway, so he wrote back to Luo Chuan and asked him to come over with the specific situation.
A few days later, Luo Chuan really came, Qin Xiao asked about the specific situation, and Luo Chuan said to him:
"This time, the price of Chinese herbal medicines has skyrocketed, but the price of drugs has not increased accordingly, because the drugs of Zhang's pharmaceutical factory have not followed up."
Qin Xiao said suddenly: "You mean, the price of medicinal materials has increased the cost, but the price of the Zhang family has not fluctuated, right?" ”
Luo Chuan said anxiously: "Yes, I don't know what this Zhang Zhengguo thinks, what is he going to do?" ”
Qin Xiao said: "Can't you sue him by dumping? ”
Luo Chuan said: "This is not good, you don't know, when you are in the hospital to give medicine to patients, you also know a little about the price of drugs, you see that the cost of those ingredients is very low, you can understand by looking at my drug list." ”
Qin Xiao looked at it for a while and said, "Why can't it be so expensive and reduce the cost, your price is several times the cost." ”
Luo Chuan said: "No, you don't know, each drug has an agent for each drug, China's drug model is like this, the drug comes out of the manufacturer, not directly to the hospital or the patient, but after a few or more changes, including regional agents, under the jurisdiction of the elder brother city and county agents, there are many sales elites under the agents, leaving them a few profits so that they can sell as appropriate, respectively, responsible for the supply of various medical institutions." Once you raise the cost at the source, then it affects the whole chain, and your efficiency immediately decreases. ”
Qin Xiao said: "You mean to let me do things from the bungalow to reduce costs." ”
Luo Chuan said: "I know this is smashing the brand, but there is no way!" ”
Qin Xiao immediately said sternly: "Absolutely not, once your pharmaceutical factory does this, it is like a person who smokes a big cigarette, even if he quits in the future, this stain will be irreparable, and he must not do this." ”
Luo Chuan frowned even more sadly, and said, "Then you say, since Fang Zi can't move, what should I do?" (To be continued.) )
