701. Life is actually the pursuit of beauty
"According to my research on history, when did China actually start to really decline, in fact, it began at the end of the Song Dynasty. Then came the great cultural decline of the Yuan Dynasty, and then to the light agriculture, light commerce, and light industry of the Ming Dynasty, and then the most important thing, I personally think, was actually the great suppression of women at the end of the Song Dynasty, which caused a series of chain reactions later. ”
Standing in the art museum, Gu Tao whispered to Xiu Ling in front of a copy of Tang Bohu's painting, he said very seriously, and his views made Xiu Ling disdain.
"I can still understand that you say light agriculture and light business, but what does the weakening of culture have to do with women? Don't you tell you that you're like those people, hanging a man's bad on a woman's head? ”
"Eh, you're wrong." Gu Tao walked forward slowly and said in a low voice: "On the contrary, it is because women are suppressed that men are not good, it's interesting, right?" ”
"You're pouring me smuggling, it's different from the history I know."
"When did Europe start to rise? From the point of view of time, it was the middle and late Renaissance, and the entire national strength of Europe began to grow by leaps and bounds. In the 15th and 16th centuries, this was the intersection of the development curve of the East and the West, and the Eastern civilization began to decline, and the Western civilization began to rise significantly, and we went to see its artworks, you can see that there were a large number of works of art with women as the main body in Europe, and the smile of the Mona Lisa was the most famous. In the course of the entire human civilization, if you study it carefully, you will find that art brings people pleasure and enjoyment, and in this environment, it can greatly cultivate people's imagination and creativity. ”
"Well, you go ahead." Xiu Ling hugged his arms, his expression still disdainful.
"If men bring creativity, productivity and imagination, then women bring inspiration, and inspiration is the soil of science. When women are suppressed, the family environment and atmosphere must be extremely bad. You remember, the mother is irreplaceable in the child's childhood and growth, if the status and emotions of women in a family are suppressed, then the child will definitely be affected by this atmosphere, you go to the history books, but where there are some abilities in the family The relationship between the parents is very good or simply lost the father, the probability of the child from this family leaving a name in the book is much higher, and the loss of the mother since childhood, if there is no good replacement, then the person is basically abolished. Because of what? This world is very strange, strength is defined by men, beauty is defined by women, this definition standard is passed down to this day, you can see that even if it is a centaur civilization, in terms of using artificial intelligence, the proportion of women must be greater than that of men, why? Have you thought about it? Why is Guanyin genderless in Buddhism, but everyone defaults to her as a woman? Why is a goddess used to describe the most beautiful things? It is because women are used to define goodness and beauty. ”
Gu Tao walked to a painting of Qi Baishi, and after pausing for a while, he suddenly turned his head and smiled: "So, when you lose this kind of environment for children to discover beauty, then it is doomed that this civilization is bound to go downhill, do you know why I asked you to teach my sister?" ”
Xiu Ling blinked: "I don't know." ”
"Because you're beautiful." Gu Tao suddenly pinched Xiu Ling's nose: "Not only is it physical beauty, but your behavior and daily life all interpret what beauty is." Right, Kunlun Nuan. You have the aesthetic ability to be stronger than everyone around me, this ability is amazing, a person wants to live a happy life, not how strong she must be, but she can continue to discover the beauty in life. ”
At this time, an old man next to him who seemed to be looking at the painting, but was secretly listening to Gu Tao's words, came out with a happy voice, and cast an approving look at Gu Tao: "Amazing, young man." ”
Gu Tao turned his head: "Then you don't need to say." ”
Xiu Ling also reacted, and snorted twice: "Do you want to praise me for going around in such a big circle?" ”
In fact, Gu Tao didn't deliberately praise spiritual cultivation, but happened to see the Eastern and Western painting exhibitions here and was moved by it, and piggybacked on his hand to praise spiritual cultivation. But this is not a mess, the ability to cultivate the spirit is very ordinary, and the appearance is actually not as good as the sixth son, but in terms of artistic accomplishment, this guy is definitely above anyone Gu Tao knows, not to mention proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and has a unique sensitivity to beauty, the peach blossoms on Kunlun Mountain are extremely beautiful, and the peach blossom wine for spiritual cultivation is hard to find.
Is this what an Air Sect Sword Immortal should do? Of course not, but Xiu Ling likes this, she has hated fighting and killing since she was a child, and now she is given enough free time, hasn't she become the fashion vane of the entire Kunlun? And who takes the apprentices, and spends four or five months of the year outside in the name of retreat, but actually for tourism? Who has nothing to do and would spend all day wandering around Paris, Switzerland, Yili, and Lijiang? Who else but this guy?
Also, how many people asked their little brother out to play and drill the art museum directly?
This man is a natural artist. And it's just such a person, can train the unruly sister and the little black dragon who is full of dirty words, is it really useful to rely on whips? It's useless, my sister is not afraid of beating now, and she won't be able to beat her in two years. But it's fun to follow the spiritual cultivation, it's very interesting, and the more the daily bunnies come into contact with beautiful things, the greater the chance that they will be on the right track.
Although the saying is that everyone is just doing their own and don't need to deliberately arrange it, no matter what, even if it is a dead fat house sitting at home, it is better than a serial murderer.
"For your sake, I'll treat you to dinner at noon."
"Okay, what's to eat?"
Since Gu Tao met this guy, she has been specializing in expensive and good petty bourgeoisie to eat, what is the coffee house near the river, what is the most famous cake shop in Paris, anyway, this guy is different from everyone else, she will never go to eat food stalls.
"I opened a new Japanese restaurant with better snowflake beef."
"Speaking of snowflake beef, I'm going to tell you, in fact, this so-called snowflake beef, it's just the fat ratio, in fact, you have to say the taste or something, you can eat this feeling with the freshest beef in the vegetable market, there is really no need to deliberately ......"
"Let's go!"
Xiu Ling didn't give Gu Tao a chance to finish speaking, grabbed his arm and dragged him out of the art museum.
And the old man who had accosted them before looked at the backs of these two people and sighed: "It's good to be young......"
In fact, if you have to say it, Gu Tao is actually not used to eating raw food, he is used to cooked food, and the steaks have to be well done. So when he saw that Xiu Ling was eating those raw fish and shrimp, he had been popularizing parasite knowledge on the side.
"Shall I ask you for a fried rice?"
"Huh?"
"Shut your mouth." Xiu Ling rolled his eyes: "It's not annoying, I'm eating." ”
Pouring himself a glass of sake, Gu Tao took a sip and leaned back in his chair: "Say, why did you suddenly come here today." ”
"Buy New Year's goods."
"Tell the truth."
Xiu Ling raised his head slightly and glanced at Gu Tao: "You are very annoying to me?" ”
"Of course not, I'm just curious, the timing of your appearance and your dress are unreasonable."
"Don't think everything is reasonable." Xiu Ling smiled: "Let's order you a bowl of fried rice." ”
In the morning, the two people who were still dressed as social elites, not long after lunch, in order to fit the atmosphere, changed into strange clothes, Gu Tao put on a military coat and a bullshit hat, and Xiu Ling put on a large cotton jacket for the first time to catch a temple fair.
Shadow puppetry, meat sandwich buns, sugar gourds and all kinds of New Year's goods are the theme here, although there are some mixed north and south, who still has a lot of things in the Japanese temple fair, what octopus balls and the like are also a lot, but no one cares, the New Year, what you want is a lively and festive, who cares about the tradition or not.
"If an acquaintance sees it, we'll be cold."
"Actually, it's already cold."
Xiu Ling looked at the brightly dressed girls around him, and then looked at his flower cloth padded jacket: "How long have you not participated in the temple fair?" ”
"I'm an alien, what kind of temple fair am I going to?"
Forget it, it doesn't matter, clothes are such things, they are always ugly and embarrassing, fortunately, Gu Tao and Xiu Ling are not ugly, especially Xiu Ling, even if it is a floral little cotton jacket, there is a style of the most handsome sister-in-law in all four miles and eight towns.
Today, Xiu Ling didn't talk to Gu Tao about anything about work, and even forced him to turn off his mobile phone and communicator, all means of contacting the outside world have been cut off, no matter whether he is embarrassed or not, he has to play for a day.
Sitting on the artificially restored old city wall, two people ate ice cream side by side, looking at the endless stream of people below, and just wanted to express some feelings, they were driven down by the administrator.
Then the two of them secretly stepped on some and planned to steal other people's pumpkins, and Gu Tao took advantage of the time when Xiu Ling went to the toilet to give the money to the people who planted pumpkins......
Of course, the car is not needed, how many can they steal, and finally when the cultivator returns, they pretend to run to the fields for a long time, catch the biggest pumpkin and carry it away, and when they steal the pumpkin, the human grower squats at the door with a bowl and eats the wine he made while watching them look at them like fools.
Xiu Ling didn't know, she really thought that the pumpkin was stolen, holding a pumpkin of more than 30 catties and calling a leg to run, Gu Tao's physical fitness could not compare to her, and it was not good to run after running behind for a while, he shouted with a sigh: "Don't run, wait for me!" ”
"No, it's over if someone finds out." Xiu Ling held the pumpkin in one hand in front of him: "Quick, go quickly." ”
Gu Tao felt that he was really a special mermaid, and he didn't have to work hard at all when he was in the sea, but he was a garbage on the shore.
Later, maybe it was because Gu Tao really couldn't run, and Xiu Ling proposed to carry him, Gu Tao refused to obey and only agreed to be dragged and ran, but as he ran, he changed from being dragged to being dragged, and finally became the shape of hanging the prisoner behind the horse and dragging it in ancient times.
By the time Xiu Ling felt safe, it was already five kilometers away, Gu Tao sat on the pumpkin and gasped, but Xiu Ling was dangling in front of Gu Tao with his hands in front of him.
"What are you dangling?"
"It's really exciting to steal things...... Xiu Ling raised his head a little uneasily: "But if someone finds out, I will be cut off ...... hand."
"Chop, I'll give you a bionic prosthetic leg."
"You said it." Xiu Ling pointed to the pumpkin under Gu Tao's buttocks: "Get up, don't let me sit on my melon." ”
