17. Dayan Ancient Town

"I think in society, the most important skill of a person is communication, and the most important relationship is interpersonal relationships.

When you get along with a woman, you need to steer the atmosphere in a relaxed, comfortable and ambiguous direction.

When you get along with your colleagues, you need to be polite and happy.

To get along with the leader, you need to be neither humble nor arrogant, not only to make the leader happy, but also not to lose your own principles, even if you lose your principles, do not lose your bottom line.

What kind of occasion to do what kind of thing, not only to tie up the leadership, but also to unite the masses, this is not to be in the same stream, but to want to survive in this fucked society basic skills.

I admire Tao Yuanming's character, but I don't envy his life.

I admire Ouyang Xiu's open-mindedness, but I don't envy his drunkenness.

I admire Su Dongpo's heroism, but I don't envy his self-deprecation. ”

Lin Yichen closed the book and waited for the plane to land. This time, in order to escape this strange encounter with this fucking thing, he decided to come out and hide...... No, have some fun.

Lijiang Ancient Town, an ancient city located at the junction of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau and the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, is also known as the "Dayan Ancient Town". I don't know when Dayan Ancient Town has become a holy place in the hearts of many men, as if overnight, this beautiful ancient city has flown out countless legends of Yanyu, so that countless lonely men and women come here to hunt Yan.

"Where, boss?" Lin Yichen made a phone call as soon as he got off the plane, and he was his eldest cousin.

"Hello? Yo! Young Master, why did you think of me? ”

Since childhood, Lin Yichen and this eldest cousin have had an excellent relationship, although the two are five years apart, they will say a few words to each other every time they meet.

"Boss, look at what you said, isn't my little brother here for you?"

"Yo, no wonder my waist doesn't hurt today, my legs don't hurt anymore, and I have a lot of energy."

"Boss, you are in charge of ten thousand chickens, the little brother admires it very much, and the little brother will give you two taels of bullwhips to make up for you."

"Okay, I'm not poor with you, seriously, why did you call me all of a sudden? Is it a trouble? Or lack of money? ”

Lin Yichen was moved in his heart, as long as he got into trouble from childhood to adulthood, as long as the big cousin, who was five years old, could carry the black pot for him, he would carry it all for him, even if he couldn't carry it, he would try his best to support him.

"I'm coming to Dayan Ancient Town." Lin Yichen said.

"Huh? Really?! ”

"Nonsense! Except for stealing your two crooked discs when I was a child and not telling you, when did my little brother lie to you. ”

"Uh...... It's not a holiday yet, is it? ”

"Can't you go out without a holiday? Hurry up, I'm at the airport. ”

"Done! You wait, I'll be there soon! ”

After hanging up the phone, Lin Yichen waited in the waiting room. His eldest cousin's surname is Xiong, and his single name is a tyrant. Except for a certain aspect of obscenity, when a real person is as his name suggests, he has the momentum to dominate the world. In Lin Yichen's impression, his eldest cousin has a natural leadership temperament since he was a child, according to the fortune teller, he belongs to Cao Cao's same personality, a capable minister who governs the world, and a hero in troubled times. Regardless of whether what the fortune teller said is true or not, at least for now, he is indeed a mixed bag.

About half an hour later, Xiong Ba arrived.

As soon as we met, Xiong Ba gave me a bear hug, and then said with a smile: "Young master, it is said that you are suspected of forcing a sow on the plane, now tell my brother about your crime and mental journey." ”

Lin Yichen punched him and said, "I think you just finished talking to it." ”

Xiong Ba winked at Lin Yichen and said with a smile: "I want to too, but that beast recognizes people and says that only your thing can satisfy it." ”

"Roll the calves!"

Subsequently, Lin Yichen followed Xiong Ba into the car.

"Where are you going to take me?" In the car, Lin Yichen asked.

Xiong Ba said: "Go to Shuhe first, and after eating and drinking over there, I will let you appreciate the 'essence' of Dayan Ancient Town!" ”

Lin Yichen knew that Xiong Ba had a lot of industries in Dayan Ancient Town, including inns, bars, and hotels, and what he admired the most was that these industries were developed completely by Xiong Ba's personal ability, and he didn't take a penny from his family.

In the next three days, Xiong Ba took care of Lin Yichen in various ways, eating, drinking and having fun. It really gave Lin Yichen a good taste of the humanity of Dayan Ancient Town, the liveliness of Dayan, the tranquility of Shuhe, and the tranquility of Baisha, which really made Lin Yichen forget to return.

The majesty of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, the magnificence of the Tiger Leaping Gorge, and the magnificence of the Mufu also left a deep impression on Lin Yichen.

After appreciating each scenic spot, Lin Yichen felt that he gradually fell in love with this place, the life in the ancient town was comfortable and tranquil, he slept until he woke up naturally every morning, and then went to the ancient town to walk around, and finally returned to the inn arranged by Xiong Ba, soaked in a cup of good Pu'er, put a deck chair in the courtyard, and basked in the sun. In the evening, go to a variety of different bars and experience a variety of unique bar cultures.

On the fourth day, it was a sunny afternoon, and the air seemed to smell good. Lin Yichen wore slippers and wandered around Shuhe Ancient Town, and in just a few days, he became like a local, which is one of the charms of this place, which can make people quickly integrate into it.

When he passed by a small café, he saw a girl sitting by the window, wearing a white shirt and brown hair, pinned to her hair like a mirrored hairpin, quietly flipping through a book.

"Huh?" Lin Yichen felt that it seemed a little familiar, and after pondering for a moment, he remembered that he had seen her often in the past few days.

Fate is so wonderful, in every passing moment, I would never have thought that the next moment would be such a meeting, when we stopped and stared at each other, we would suddenly find that everyone was as familiar as old friends.

After sighing, Lin Yichen walked in gently, came to the girl's seat, and knocked lightly on the table.

"Hey! So you're here. In his tone, he was a little frivolous.

The girl looked up at Lin Yichen, first stunned, and then symbolically smiled.

Lin Yichen smiled and said, "Beauty, you have something missing." ”

The girl's brows furrowed slightly, she looked around, looked at Lin Yichen in confusion, and asked, "What has fallen?" ”

Lin Yichen looked at her and said, "You dropped your beautiful figure out the window, and it just so happens that I am a contemporary Lei Feng, so I picked it up and brought it in to return it to you." ”

Obviously, the girl didn't expect Lin Yichen to say this, smiled, stretched out her hand and said, "That's good, bring it back to me." ”

Lin Yichen smiled slightly, raised his hand and patted her palm lightly, and said, "Beauty, your phoenix claws are good, how much does it cost a catty?" ”

The girl retracted it, gave him a blank look, and said, "You are the phoenix claw." ”

Lin Yichen smiled and asked, "Beauty, can I sit?" As he spoke, he sat down opposite her honestly and unceremoniously, and then continued: "I have seen you so many times in Shuhe, and I have never dared to talk to you, and I saw you when I passed by here today, I think I may regret it if I don't come to know you again." So, you get the idea. At the end, he raised his eyebrows slightly.

The girl smiled and said, "Oh? I have a little impression of you, often wearing slippers and sunglasses to hang around, are you from here? Sure enough, she also had a little impression of Lin Yichen.

Lin Yichen shook his head and said, "I'm just like you, just a tourist, or just a passerby." ”

"Huh?" The girl's pretty eyebrows moved and she asked, "How do you know I'm a tourist, not a local?" I've been here for a long time. ”

Lin Yichen said: "Have you ever seen a white local like you? Whose IQ do you insult? ”

The girl smiled and asked, "What do you want to drink with?" I ask you as compensation for insulting your intelligence. ”

Lin Yichen tapped lightly on the table with his index finger and said, "Let's have a macchiato, well, caramel macchiato." ”

The girl nodded, called the waitress over, and ordered a caramel macchiato.

After the waiter left, Lin Yichen asked, "Do you know coffee?" ”

The girl said: "I fell in love with cappuccino after listening to Xiao Yaxuan's Cappuccino, and I drank this every time, and I really didn't study anything else." ”

Lin Yichen said with a smile: "Cappuccino? The traditional cappuccino, which is one-third espresso, one-third steam milk and one-third frothy milk, is a fantastic coffee. The first sip always makes people feel bitter and sour, a large amount of foam is like the impetuous life of young people, and the bursting of the bubble and that little bit of bitterness are like the conflict between dreams and reality. Finally, after tasting the joys and sorrows of life, the mellow and sweet taste of life is intoxicating, of course, I hope that the bubble of housing prices will burst like it will really be ten million mansions. ”

The girl was slightly surprised, and said, "I can't see that you have such a good understanding of coffee." ”

Lin Yichen dusted off the T-shirt on his body and said with a smile: "I understand a little." At this time, the waiter happened to bring the coffee, so he took the coffee, took a small sip, and continued: "This macchiato, in Italian, means sweet imprint, just like today's encounter between you and me, may become the caramel macchiato in my memory." ”

When he said this, he seemed very casual, and he didn't even look at the girl, as if he was talking about something that was very common. The reason why this is so is also to prevent the girl from feeling that she is deliberately teasing her while being pretentious, which is also where his methods are clever.

After finishing speaking, Lin Yichen moved back a little, leaned on the sofa, and tried his best to choose a very comfortable sitting position. And this naturally has a certain meaning, which is to imperceptibly infect the other party with a sense of comfort, so that the other party will inadvertently let down their guard. Such a small trick, but he studied the results of psychology for more than half a year.

Then, he turned his gaze to the book that the girl had just read, which was a National Geographic. Making good use of the right time and place is the key to the girl, every detail is the key to opening the girl's heart, the key is whether you can grasp it.

"Do you like to travel?" Lin Yichen asked, since the girl is not a local, she is naturally here to travel, and now she is looking at National Geographic, obviously preparing for tourism.

Sure enough, the girl said, "I like it very much." ”

After getting the answer, Lin Yichen knew that he had a breakthrough, so he chatted with the girl on the topic of "tourism".

As the girl herself said, she loves to travel. In the ensuing chat, she said a lot of what she had seen, interesting and fond memories of her travels.

At this time, Lin Yichen naturally entered the state of a listener, and when she said that she encountered unhappy things during the trip, she gave timely encouragement and tried to immerse her in the memories of the beautiful trip. And when she said something happy, I applauded her gently and appropriately, so that her mood was always in good shape.

Under Lin Yichen's deliberate maintenance, the girl finally ended the good memories of the trip.

"What about you? Do you like to travel? After a pause, the girl asked.

I changed my posture slightly and said, "Of course, I just don't have time, this time I came to Dayan Ancient Town to be purely absenteeism." Here, he lied and made a joke at the same time. This approach is to prevent girls from delving into "work". After all, he is only a student now, and the girl in front of him is obviously not able to be a hunter as a "student".

Then he didn't give the girl time to ask questions, and went on directly: "I like to travel, but it's not the travel itself, but when I like to travel, I can let go of all the baggage, work, and sophistication, and truly live only for myself and be happy." ”

Lin Yichen is a hunter, and the hunter will use all favorable terrain to set traps and traps, and at this time he is giving the prey a hint that he can let go of all baggage, including morality, when traveling. In addition, many pseudo-silk will take the opportunity to show off which places they have been to show off their rich experience, but in fact, this behavior itself will be annoying. So successful hunters, while boasting, are able to maintain a high pressing style.

Then Lin Yichen said: "Actually, there are not many times when I can really put down my burden and travel, but because of my work, I have been going from south to north." What I remember the most is when I was still in college, I went to do a field geological survey with a tutor. At first we were all very excited, because the pristine mountain forest is very beautiful, with green plants, there are clear streams, but in the end we got lost in the ravine, which is a very embarrassing thing, until it was almost dark we didn't go out, at this time we panicked, quickly called 110, 119, 122, but it was like pushing a ball, this push that pushed this. Speaking of this, he spread his hands and sighed, "Hey! Celestial Empire. ”

Obviously, this story is a story made up by Lin Yichen, which is also his strength. The reason why he chose to make up such a story is naturally because of the word "tourism", and in order to attract the other party and create a tense atmosphere, he also deliberately chose such a "lost in the wild" plot. (Digression: If you want to practice the ability to make up stories like this, the only way is to read more books, read more newspapers, eat less snacks, and sleep more!) )

Not surprisingly, the girl asked, "And then?" ”

But seeing that she looked a little nervous, Lin Yichen knew that his goal had been achieved, so he took a sip of coffee and continued: "We had to call our friends, but they were all far away, and it was almost impossible to come to save us. In this way, we could only keep walking, and gradually it was already dark, it was already late autumn, and the temperature dropped quickly at night, and the two of us were tired and sleepy, and our feet were like lead, but we couldn't stop, because once we stopped, it meant death, and it was really a particularly desperate scene. Speaking of this, he looked embarrassed, and his eyes seemed to fall into that kind of desperate memory.

The girl was even more nervous, and her white and slender fingers had unconsciously crumpled the book in her hand.

"What about the back?"

Lin Yichen restrained his expression and smiled slightly: "Of course, we finally walked out in the end, it was already more than 4 o'clock in the morning, we walked to a local's house, knocked on the door with the last of our strength, and then we all lost our strength." ”

After speaking, Lin Yichen could clearly feel that the girl also seemed to be relieved. He continued: "According to my mentor's later recollection, he said that he really wanted to give up, but the only belief that supported him was his daughter, who had just turned 2 months old. ”

The girl took a sip of her coffee, and asked, "What is that belief that underpins you?" ”

Lin Yichen said with a smile: "I had a thought in my heart at that time, I am still a virgin, how can I die here." ”

The girl smiled, very beautiful, and her eyes curved in a very beautiful arc.

Lin Yichen adjusted his tone and continued: "But that is really the closest I think to death, fortunately, my life is hard, and the king of Hades will not accept it, otherwise how can I still sit here and chat with you." "Pause," the story also tells us that crises are often hidden behind the beauty of the flowers. ”

The girl smiled and nodded in agreement.

Lin Yichen picked up the coffee and said, "Although it's not wine, let's have a drink, just for the encounter after the catastrophe." ”

The girl also raised her glass, clinked glasses, and drank it all.

Then the two chatted for a while, during which Lin Yichen asked her to guess his age, and she guessed wrong several times.

Lin Yichen said: "If you guess wrong, you will be punished." ”

The girl asked, "What punishment?" ”

Lin Yichen smiled and said, "I haven't thought about it for the time being, I'll tell you when I think about it." Then he looked at his watch and said, "Friend, it's time for me to go, do you have any paper?" ”

The girl shook her head and said, "No." ”

"Do you have a pen, then?"

The girl continued to shake her head, and Lin Yichen said, "There is no such thing or that, there is always a phone, right?" How many calls are coming? ”

The girl smiled, but she left the phone to Lin Yichen very happily.

After receiving the number, Lin Yichen left the café. In fact, Lin Yichen didn't have anything to do, just deliberately created a sense of needlessness, since it was a game, it was natural to abide by the rules of the game. A good hunter will never let her prey find out that you want to hunt her, and if you get too close, the prey will run away at any time, so you must keep your distance and stop in moderation.

After returning to the inn, Lin Yichen took out his mobile phone and sent a short message to the girl: "Hello, my name is Lin Yichen, it's nice to meet you, I like this adventurous and exciting life." ”

After a while, the girl replied, "I'm also glad to meet you, my name is Shui Sheng." ”

Lin Yichen smiled, a very beautiful name, and then did not continue to reply.
