Chapter Fifty-Five: Teaching People to Fish, The Legend of the Heavenly Master
"Do you really want to give it to him? That's three yuan and seven corners! The landlady asked in surprise, seeing that he was carrying an old hanging bag, wearing a very ordinary, somewhat discolored crewneck shirt, eating so shabby, but being so generous to beggars, a little incomprehensible.
"You just have to do it, the money is yours!"
A small table, after the very dirty old man sat down, he smelled of sweat. Xie Lei and Gu Yu also disagreed, and continued to gnaw on their buds and eat bean curd, without the slightest disgust.
The rice was quickly served, not to mention, although the restaurant fried the dishes, but it was full of fragrance, "back to the pot meat", "shredded pork in Beijing sauce" were very authentic, the egg soup sprinkled with green onions, and the two bowls of rice were also sufficient.
"Uncle, you use it slowly!" Xie Lei took out a pair of chopsticks and handed them to him, pushing the dishes and rice in front of him.
"Thank you, young man, you will be rich and prosperous in the future!" The old man said a word of gratitude, and began to gobble up his meal.
"Thank you for your good words, everyone will encounter embarrassment, just get through it!" Xie Lei comforted, peeked at it, and wondered in his heart: "This old man, no matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like a beggar!"
"Uncle, are these dishes enough?"
"Enough, enough, thank you so much, I haven't had such a good meal in a long time!" The old man hurriedly shaved the rice in the bowl and put the meat in his mouth, but tears of gratitude glistened to the corners of his eyes.
"Then you can use it slowly, I'll take my leave first. Boss, just four yuan don't need to make up! ”
"I didn't expect you to be so generous, you eat so frugally, but you are so righteous to a stranger, and when you come down the mountain, you will eat here, and I will give you a discount!"
"Oh, by the way, it reminded me when it came to discounts!" Xie Lei, who walked out of the store, retreated, took out five ten-yuan bills, and put them on the old man's table. "Don't dislike it, it's really difficult to get by, just go to the 'Xieli Noodle Shop' on Chunxi Road, Qingyuan City to find me, my name is Xie Lei, as soon as you say it, the staff in the store will know!"
"Thank you so much, I wrote it down, Chunxi Road 'Xieli Noodle Shop', Xie Lei, what a good person!" The old man said gratefully.
"Wow, it turns out that you are a big boss, so you can be so generous, I was really embarrassed just now, I was joking, don't be surprised!" Seeing him behave like this, the female boss quickly stated that she was a little embarrassed.
"It's okay, I know you're joking. But to do business, be good to customers, business will be good! ”
"Well, well, when I'm free, I'll come to your noodle shop to have a look and get some scriptures!"
Turn around a mountain beam and come to the 'Jixian Bridge'. Under the guardrails on both sides of the temporary bridge made of wooden planks, there are long wooden planks to stop and rest, and the guardrails are the backrests. The bridge body is covered by the inherent moss of the mountain forest, the gust of breeze, holding the fog beads splashed by the mountain stream spring water, it is really unforgettable, the past tourists, will inevitably make a short stay on this bridge, watch the flying spring, the waterfall, enjoy the gift of nature!
"Brother Lei, it's so cool here, let's sit for a meeting, maybe Ruolan and they will arrive later." You are so good to that old man, you don't know him, why do you still give him money? ”
"Gu Yu, do you think Brother Lei has any money?"
"Of course there is money, so it goes without saying! It's just..., what does it have to do with helping him? ”
"If Brother Lei has no money and wants to help him, can you do it?"
"Of course you can't do it, you don't have any money, what... Oh, I understand, Brother Lei, I understand, in the future, we will make a lot of money, and when we meet the poor, we can help them. Otherwise, if you don't have the money, you won't be able to help! Gu Yu suddenly understood and said in surprise.
"Smart people are different, just click and understand, haha, haha!"
"Brother Lei, in the future, I will also learn from you and earn a lot of money to help the poor! In the past, our family was very poor, but you helped our family buy a big house and helped my father cure his illness, so that we could live such a good life, and I will always remember this. I heard my sister say to my mother that she will always follow you to do things. When I grow up, I will follow you to do things, and we will make a lot of money together, and if I meet that old man again, I will say: 'Old uncle, take 100,000 yuan to spend, if it is not enough, come and get it again, hehe! ’”
"Silly girl, how can you help others, not to give him more money to help him, but to help him find a way to survive independently. That old man, as long as he gives him a little money, he can use it to do business, even if it is selling melon seeds and sorbets, how good it is to support himself, and no matter how much money he gives him, there will be a time when it will run out. So, how many people can you help? ”
"Oh, yes, so why did you take the money out to open a noodle shop, just so that those classmates of yours could earn their own money,..." Gu Yu suddenly understood a lot of truth.
"It's really smart, in the future, you have to learn how to really help people!"
Xie Lei's unintentional move later became a good story. The old man's name is Jin Chuyan, and after the reform and opening up, he became the coal boss of Shanxi's rich side, which is a later story.
"Fellow, do you want to sit on the 'sliding rod'?" A group of local farmers who are engaged in this business asked by the side of a relatively steep mountain road.
"I don't sit, but at one o'clock, my more than a dozen family members must be sitting, there are two legs and feet are inconvenient, if your business is not good, if you want, after lunch, just wait at the gate of the mountain, until you have to carry it to the 'Shangqing Palace'!"
Xie Lei thought of Xiaobo's mother and Uncle Pan's inconvenient legs, and gave the person who seemed to be the leader fifty yuan and asked them to wait at the mountain gate. I think it is also, tourists who come to play, who will just get off the bus, enter the mountain gate to sit. Besides, the price of fifty yuan is equivalent to the salary of ordinary people for more than one or two months, who would be willing to give it!
Watching the mountain all the way, chatting all the way, I unconsciously came to the 'Tianshi Cave' located in the middle of the mountainside. In the middle of summer, in the tea hall next to the main hall in the middle of the mountain, there are really a lot of tourists who take a break. A cup of 'Qingcheng Vegetarian Tea', a bamboo chair, enjoying the gentle cool breeze, the sweat and fatigue from climbing the mountain will soon disappear without a trace with the breeze.
"Gu Yu, go to the commissary to buy some melon seeds and snacks, we will rest here, you can also walk around here, wait for Ruolan and them to come!" Xie Lei took ten yuan for her.
"Brother Lei, it's so cool to sit here, do you eat 'Qingcheng Mountain Jelly', look at those people are eating, I want to eat it!"
"If you want to eat it, you can buy it yourself, I don't want to eat it, it's spicy and numb!"
"Hey, it's spicy and numb, that's delicious!"
"Brother Lei, it is a Bodhisattva, why is it called 'Heavenly Master Cave'?" After eating the cold powder and eating the snacks bought on the table, the two talked casually.
"Have you seen "Journey to the West", what is the name of the white-bearded grandfather who locked Sun Wukong in the alchemy furnace above thirty-three days and practiced for seventy-seven and forty-nine days?"
"Who doesn't know, it's Taishang Laojun who is good at alchemy!"
"Yes, it is said that his level of alchemy is unmatched, so he is also known as the 'Heavenly Alchemy Master', referred to as the 'Heavenly Master'. The surname Zhang, the word Daoling, once practiced Dan in a cave here, so the descendants built a 'Heavenly Master Palace' here, wanting to get his protection. The ginkgo tree he planted, have you ever seen it, it's so big, it's so big, it's so thick, it's just under this stone step, you can go and see, and you'll have a long insight.
In the future, we must learn more about history and geography, otherwise when we go out to travel, we only know how to go shopping, eat, and even do not understand the geographical location and historical allusions. In the past few days, he Ruolan went to Xinhua Bookstore to buy some travel books, and when he arrived in Beijing, he knew which places he had to see with his own eyes! ”
"That's right, after I go back tomorrow, I'll go to Xinhua Bookstore with Ruolan to buy books, and first work out the attractions I want to play, which places and provinces I have to pass through along the way, so it's interesting to go out, hehe!"
Drinking tea, eating snacks, chatting leisurely, and enjoying the cool breeze of the mountains and forests, Ruolan and a large group of people arrived.
"Wow, brother, you guys are so blessed, sitting here drinking tea, it's so cool!" Ruolan said sweating profusely.
"Wake you up, you still want to sleep a little longer, of course you can't enjoy it!"
"I knew it was so cool here, we came early, it's so hot for mountaineering, it's so hot!" Several classmates, classmates' parents, and my younger brother and Yuyu, who are still in school, are all here now.
"Boss, make tea, one of us wants a bowl of cold noodles, oh, they don't want it!" Ding Lan greeted loudly.
Uncle Pan and Chen's mother had inconvenient legs and feet, and they came up on the 'sliding pole', and the other uncles and aunts all wanted to walk up. After saying hello, I sat in the gazebo to drink tea, rest, and enjoy the cool breeze.
"Xiao Lei, we simply took a leave of absence and came out to play, so many parents and classmates are together, I'm really happy!" Aunt Ren said with a smile.
"Xiao Lei, you look at me like this, I also want to come out with you, I haven't come out for many years, this time I finally made up my mind, the changes on this mountain are really big!" Pan Bo said with emotion.
"Min Hao, come to me, take off your vest, Min Hui brought a towel to me to wipe him, he was covered in sweat, be careful of catching a cold!"
"Haha, haha, Xie Lei, you said you were going to order food, but you didn't leave halfway up the mountain!" Pan Wentao said jokingly while helping him wipe his sweat.
"With them going first, I'm lazy here. In the evening, after drinking, I will accompany you to fight the 'arch pig', and if you lose, you will drill the table, haha, haha! Ding Lan, you ask Mother Chen if she drinks water, Xiaobo is not there, you have to take care of her more, Aunt Su, Aunt Zhang, are you tired from walking, you have enough rest, so you all go up on the 'sliding rod'! ”
"Aunt Ren, there should be a 'rehabilitation center' in the hospital, right? I want Pan Bo and Chen's mother to go to your rehabilitation center for treatment and prosthetic limbs, so that they can throw away their crutches and walk alone in the future! ”
"When we get to the top of the mountain, I'll check them out, and if I can, I'll come back to the rehabilitation center for treatment!"
"Thank you, Aunt Ren, it's great if my dad can do this!" After hearing this, Pan Wentao was very excited and thanked him repeatedly. Chen's mother is also full of gratitude. It's really uncomfortable to have inconvenient legs and feet.
"Brother Lei, in this final exam, I got into the top three in the class!" Xie Lei wiped his sweat, but Min Hao said anxiously.
"I heard what your sister said, haha, haha, it's really good, the grades rushed up all of a sudden!" Xie Lei replied with a smile. Quietly tell him: "Reward you with a bicycle, you can get it in a few days, and you are also eligible to go out and play!" ”
"Wow, that's great, thank you Brother Lei!"
