94: First encounter with the ice
Seeing off her younger brother, Ziyi inadvertently passed by a bookstore on her way home.
If it is placed on an ordinary day, it may be due to work or some kind of objective factors, Ziyi should also be fleeting.
What attracted Ziyi?
In fact, the difference between this bookstore and other bookstores is its name-
Not a "serious" bookstore.
How could there be such a strange bookstore name?
In an instant, Ziyi's brain made up all kinds of pictures.
Is the boss more unserious?
Is it because the books in the bookstore are not green enough?
Or is the bookstore just named to attract more business, or maybe it's just a façade.
Maybe the books in this bookstore are the most headache for junior high and high school students, the three-year college entrance examination, the five-year simulation, hahaha...... Interesting!
Curiosity drove Ziyi into this so-called indecent bookstore, and she really wanted to see how unorthodox this bookstore was.
It took a lot of courage to get the boss to come up with such a bold name.
Relying on Liang Jingru's "courage" alone should be far from enough!
Ziyi pushed open the door and looked, and sure enough, it was a little "not very serious"!
There doesn't seem to be any one in this bookstore, except for the bookshelves on both sides, the round bar in the center of the bookstore is particularly eye-catching.
There were several literary and artistic young people sitting around the bar, some of them were tapping quickly on the keyboard, and some were holding fragrant coffee in their hands.
In a small corner, there seems to be a little pot friend with a pink schoolbag and a mischievous bag in his hand.
She looked very seriously, and from time to time she pursed her lips with her tongue.
They sat close together, but they seemed to be separated by a galaxy.
Everyone is different from everyone, and everyone seems to be in a hurry.
The books in the bookstore are not clearly labeled, but there are different two-dimensional models at intervals of a few meters or so.
Blue hair, purple hair, red hair, some of them were still holding wheat in their hands, Ziyi stood at the door as if she could see their eyelashes.
Could this be the rhythm of the avatar?
For Ziyi, who doesn't read often, she didn't know where she should start, so she had to walk around the bookstore first.
In the cashier of the bookstore sat an uncle who was about forty years old.
Ziyi looked up and down, as if she didn't feel any different from other bookstore owners except for the beard that her temples deliberately raised.
However, this kind of atmosphere is really not suitable for a person to come in and leave, in that case, it will really make people feel sorry for the rush of this unserious bookstore.
A few sunny green plants are blooming just right.
The rich smell of books fills this small house of less than 100 square meters, but it has a feeling of wandering in the ocean.
Maybe that's the power of knowledge.
When you hold a book by your favorite author in the palm of your hand, it is a screen across your mobile phone or computer, and it has a different feeling.
You can feel his aura, and even you can feel his temperature.
You will fall in love with him unconsciously, and even want to take him for yourself.
You want to swallow him in one go, but you are afraid that the process will go too fast, and you will be reluctant and nostalgic.
In the end, Ziyi carefully selected a book in the boss's recommendation area and recommended it with three stars.
One won the 2016 "10th Writers List Awards Ceremony" Best Seller of the Year Award - Teacher Da Bing.
That was the first time Ziyi came into contact with the wild writer "Da Bing".
That's right, Ziyi was indeed attracted by the cover of this book.
You have to believe that there are people in this world who are living the life you want: 9 to 5 and the end of the world.
- "Amitabha Buddha" Author: Da Bing.
I saw a bare-headed little monk on the cover talking about Amitabha.
Ziyi quietly looked at the cover of the book, imagining the little monk's psychological reaction at that time.
Ziyi felt that he should have been happy at that time, even happy.
Da Bing, writer and TV host;
folk singer, old backpacker, bar shopkeeper;
oil painter, tambourine artist, leatherman, silversmith;
Golden left face Zen disciple.
(Golden Left Face: Because Da Bing always likes to take pictures of his left face when taking photos, he is called the Golden Left Face.) )
I'll tell you about 12 legendary stories that you can't bear to read.
This cover alone is very attractive to children like Ziyi who never like to read, let alone other big friends.
Due to time constraints, Ziyi only finished reading the first chapter that day—a child's wish.
He tells the story of a child with leukemia that the author of the book, Da Bing, helped.
Halfway through the reading, Ziyi's eyes were already blurred by tears.
As a bystander, Ziyi could not feel what kind of real experience the sick child had in his heart when he came to the end of his life.
Maybe he wanted to go on a trip when he graduated from high school at the age of eighteen.
Maybe he wanted to make a knowledgeable, gentle and lovely girl to be his girlfriend when he was twenty years old.
Maybe he wanted to have a cute baby when he was thirty years old, both boys and girls.
Perhaps he wanted to fulfill his filial piety as a son of man under the knees of his parents when he was fifty years old.
Perhaps he wanted to hold his wife's hand tightly when he was seventy years old, and then said:
In this life, we haven't lived in vain.
But those may no longer exist.
The little boy who was only a teenager, when he came to the end of his life, the only wish he put forward was hope-
was able to ask his parents to transfer the lyrics he wrote to Da Bing, hoping that Mr. Da Bing could fulfill his last wish to be a "singer".
In the end, Da Bing contacted many friends and folk singers, and finally composed and sang, and finally completed this dream action.
I hope that this little candle lit by those kind people can light up the road to heaven for that fifteen-year-old boy who is far away in the sky.
I also hope that he can hear this song, far away in the sky, or moved, or pleased.
Looking at the cover, I thought it was an inspirational essay with chicken soup for the soul, but I didn't expect the real feelings revealed between the lines to make people cry.
Before leaving, Ziyi turned to the last side of the book and glanced at the price, which was 36.00 yuan.
Things returned to their original places, and they said goodbye to the unorthodox bookstore.
Ziyi glanced back at the location of the bookstore, she wanted to remember it more clearly, so that she could come again when she was free.
This time, Ziyi hopes that she is no longer passing by.
After Ziyi returned home, without the company of her younger brother, Ziyi had to wash up and go to bed early.
I was bored at night, thinking of the books I saw during the day, so Ziyi searched for Da Bing on Baidu.
Da Bing, whose real name is Yan Bing, was born in Yantai, Shandong Province in 1980, graduated from Shandong University of the Arts, folk singer, writer, and host of Shandong Satellite TV.
Unexpectedly, this book is already his third published.
In 2013, he published "They Are the Happiest".
In 2014, he published "Be Good, Touch Your Head".
"Amitabha Buddha Momodha" is his third book published in 2015.
In the same year, it also won a great honor.
Most of the content in the book is what Da Bing saw and heard when he traveled around the world.
I have to say that Da Bing is a person who is good at observing life, has a delicate mind, and loves life.
The purpose of each book is to repeatedly elaborate on this theme, which is about the "goodness" of human nature.
"Kindness is the eternal sunny side of human nature.
To choose kindness is to choose nature, that is, to choose light. ”
Da Bing's maverick writing and ink, the pure hearts mentioned in the book, they are flesh and blood, sound and color, and the sense of reality is suffocating and boiling.
At that moment, Ziyi's eyes were full of envy and admiration.
Da Bing's life is out of her reach.
She envied that Da Bing could stop and go like that, she envied Da Bing that he could be at peace with what he encountered, and she envied Da Bing who could eat meat and drink wine in a big bowl.
She also envied Da Bing for having so many good "brothers" who were alive and righteous.
This is probably the first time Ziyi has such a good impression of a "biological" author.
Even for a moment, Ziyi imagined that she was living in the world described in the Great Ice Book.
She doesn't need to continue to be the princess of Crystal Castle, she doesn't need to continue to be a good employee in the company, and she doesn't need to continue to be a good wife in front of her husband.
She is who she is, the most primitive her, the most authentic her.
Of course, Zhao Xun also became very good friends with Ziyi in later days.
It's as if they don't look like relatives in the eyes of others, but they look like relatives.
Ziyi and Zhao are similar, but not similar.
Zhao Xun is Ziyi, but Ziyi is not Zhao Xun.
There are two mes in one body, and Zhao Xun is starting to get a little confused.
Later, Da Bing published several books in a row.
In 2016, he published "Okay, Okay".
In 2017, he published "I Don't".
Ziyi bought all the books about Da Bing in a bookstore and gave them all to Zhao Xun.
Because Ziyi knew that although Zhao Xun had stayed in their town from the beginning, the plain life did not seem to have worn out Zhao Xun's soul.
Actually, to put it cheesily, that is, Ziyi has seen Zhao Xun's books that fill the entire shelf.
Maybe it's not a bookshelf, or maybe it's not a storage shelf at all.
Maybe it's just a few boards of dead wood that are about to wither.
And Zhao Xun only remembered that on the day he first encountered the ice, it seemed that the whole sky began to turn blue.
