Chapter 192: Mysterious Dream Strange String of Beads
With the turn of the season, now has been quietly from the hot summer, to the cool breeze of the early autumn, now the outside weather temperature, there is no unbearable stuffiness a few days ago, Hangzhou side of the West Lake area, once again ushered in a peak period of tourism. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoWhether it is other locations in Hangzhou or the scenic spots on the West Lake, all of them have become a dense sea of tourists. In this case, it is only up to watch the people when they come out to play, but the Chinese people still like this, and the more crowded the place, the more they like to go.
"Hey, Mom, I know, I've already participated in the work, why do you still treat me like a child, it's not the first time I've come out to play, there are those things that need to be paid attention to after I get out, I've already been clear, you can rest assured, I'll go home to see you in a few days, okay, okay, I'm hanging......"!
Gu Nian came to Hangzhou under such circumstances, before Sun Buxing was escorted to Huashan by his father, he and Li Zi Sha Tianpeng had already gotten the other party's suggestion that he wanted him to join the newly formed Seven Star Team from Sun Buxing's mouth, Sun Buxing and a few of them, but good brothers with similar temperaments and close relationships, what else is there to say, the three of them didn't even need to discuss, and directly agreed to go to two.
It's a pity that they have just found their own team, the leader of this team, but they are going to serve their sentence somewhere, listening to Sun Buxing's own explanation, it is estimated that it will take at least a month or two to come back, and the three of them have become headless flies, as if they have taken a big vacation, jumping around every day in the base of the General Bureau of the Tianjing Dragon Ninth Bureau, as if they are idle like something, free and casual.
In the blink of an eye, Sun Buxing has been away for nearly half a month, the three brothers have been practicing hard in the training room of the General Administration base every day, and the rest of the time is spent on drinking and shopping, half a month's work is enough for them to take the entire Tianjing City with the surrounding famous scenic spots, finally, early yesterday morning, after discussing with each other, they decided to leave Tianjing temporarily, and each of them found something they were interested in to play for a while, and joined the seven-star ability team. It's better to wait for Sun Bu to wake up, and this guy will come back.
Li Zisha and Tian Peng, they chose to go together, these two people disliked that Hangzhou was too hot, so they went directly to Sichuan and Shu, and prepared to drive into Tibet from the Sichuan-Tibet line, enjoying the scenery along the way, and Gu Nian chose to go on the road alone and came to this famous scenic spot that has been famous in the Han Kingdom for thousands of years.
It's strange to say, Gu Nian this person, since he was born, he has a kind of instinct to know the Buddhist classics, as if some Buddhist scriptures were recited countless times in his previous life, and as he grew older, this feeling became stronger and stronger, and recently, he even dreamed of all kinds of strange scenes related to Buddhism. As for the reason why he came to West Lake alone this time, he didn't choose to go to Tibet with Tian Peng and them, it came from the impulse and call in his heart.
In the past half a month, Gu Nian can be said to be restless, sleep unstable, every day as long as he falls asleep, there will be a rippling blue wave in front of him, the most impressive thing for him is that in every dream, he will dream of a young woman in white and a beige oil-paper umbrella, and, at the end of every strange dream, you will see a mysterious man wearing a yellow robe sitting next to the broken bridge in the famous scenic spot of West Lake.
Like Gu Nian, a rich family, West Lake, a famous scenic spot in the country, he must have traveled here, and even came less than once, but Gu Nian can be sure that he has never seen a stall owner wearing a robe and selling things on this side of the West Lake, let alone the wisp of the call that arises in his heart, Gu Nian clearly understands in his heart, this call, clearly told him a location, that is, West Lake here in Hangzhou.
After receiving nearly half a month of mental torture, Gu Nian finally accepted this strange feeling in his heart, and decided to come to the West Lake to take a look again, so as to relieve those doubts in his heart. That's why I made this trip to West Lake.
Gu Nian had come to Hangzhou early this morning, after getting off the plane, he took a taxi directly to the edge of the West Lake, and slowly walked around the scenic spots, I don't know what was going on, the closer he got to the West Lake, the more his mood could not calm down, and in the end, deep in his heart, there was even a feeling and urge to cry. As if something sad had happened to him here, as if he had lost someone dearest here.
Unconsciously, the time has come to noon, doubtful Gu Nian, who is like a mess, casually found a restaurant on the side of the road, after a simple meal, he walked all the way along the road of the scenic spot, and walked to the side of the broken bridge, maybe it is destined in the dark, Gu Nianren has not yet arrived at the broken bridge, and he saw a row of stalls on the side of the road from a distance, there is a young woman wearing a light yellow cheongsam, sitting upright next to a stall, where Shuanghe is holding a mobile phone to watch a movie and watch it more fascinating.
Boom, Gu Nian only felt that his heart exploded all of a sudden, and his body was full of excitement, although this cheongsam woman was completely different from the yellow-robed man he saw in his dream, but in Gu Nian's heart, there seemed to be a voice that kept telling him, saying that this woman was the person he would dream of in his dreams every night these days.
"Hello handsome guy, my things here are very cheap, the quality of these souvenirs is good, what do you like, you can pick it up and take a closer look, our stall is a thousand-year-old shop, with a long history, in terms of reputation, it is absolutely first-class, you can take a look at the ...... at will"!
Seeing Gu Nian walking in front of her stall, the cheongsam woman who was watching the TV series immediately paused the video on her mobile phone, looked up and smiled at Gu Nian to say hello, and briefly introduced her souvenirs to the other party in this stall, signaling that the other party could watch and enjoy it casually.
"Ha, beauty, your statement is really fresh enough, I have only heard of a century-old shop, this thousand-year-old stall, I still heard it for the first time, hahaha, don't say anything else, just give you such an interesting introduction, I also have to take a good look, if there is really a good idea, I will definitely buy ...... from you"!
After hearing the other party's unbelievable introduction, Gu Nian was happy in his heart, and almost didn't laugh out loud, Nima, when did these small traders who set up stalls have been so brain-opening, and even the saying that the stalls that have been inherited for thousands of years have been put together, this kind of propaganda method is really trendy enough, why don't you say that your stall was founded by Qin Shihuang and his old man?
Although he was very funny in his heart, Gu Nian still slowly squatted down, and looked at the goods on the stall one by one, don't you say, although this stall is not big, but the souvenirs placed on it are all exquisite workmanship and first-class materials, and at first glance, they are not the inferior products that are placed on other stalls to fool foreign tourists.
"Hey, what is this, why does it look so familiar, hey, beauty, how much does this thing cost......"?
Gu Nian looked at it, and suddenly saw a string of gray-white beads in an old wooden box in the middle of the stall, this string of beads suddenly looked gray and inconspicuous, but Gu Nian only glanced over, and he could no longer take back his eyes, at the same time, his right hand involuntarily stretched over, and picked up the string of beads, while carefully looking at the string of beads that became more and more feeling, while asking the beautiful stall owner about its price.
"I'm sorry, this string of beads is not for sale, don't worry, all the things on my stall, except for this string of beads, you can buy everything else, handsome guy, I'm really sorry, but you can look at other things, as long as you like it, I will give you a five-percent discount, anyway, I don't set up this stall to make money, today you see the handsome guy, you are pleasing to the eye, so I jumped off the building and sold it......"!
Hmph, what's 50% off, how much is this product, it's not up to you to decide? What kind of jumping sale, really take us tourists for fools? After Gu Nian heard these words from the other party, he rolled his eyes and gave the beautiful stall owner opposite a big white eye, do you want to play with me? Isn't this the latest trick researched by these black-hearted peddlers?
"Hehe, I'm not interested in anything else, beauty, don't play anything for me, you quote a price directly, how much is this thing, as long as the price is not too outrageous, I want it, this is not a valuable thing, it is not for sale, this money sent to the door, you can't help but accept it......"?
Although Gu Nian disagreed with the stall owner's words in his heart, he didn't know what was going on, as soon as this string of beads was held in his hand, the feeling that had been hovering in his heart for many days immediately alleviated a lot, and in the dark, he seemed to have a feeling that this thing should have belonged to him in the first place.
"I'm really sorry, it's not that I don't sell it to you, this is really not for sale, it's not just you, I don't believe it myself, but, our old man said, this string of beads, he only sends, not sells, and, listen to my old man, in the past thousand years, this string of beads, in our Chang's stall, has been sent out eighteen or nineteen times, but I don't know why it is still in my hands......"!
Seeing Gu Nian holding the bead string and refusing to let go of her reluctant look, the cheongsam female stall owner had to smile bitterly there, and patiently explained to her the close relationship between this bead string and their Chang family.
"Handsome guy, you probably don't know, I'm not bragging, our Chang family is one of the best families in Hangzhou, my grandfather founded the Changshou Group, and it is the largest listed company in Hangzhou, if it weren't for this strange rule handed down by the ancestors, how could a high-achieving student like Miss Ben, who graduated from Harvard University in the United States, be sent out by the family to do this kind of small business and hawker ......"!
"What do you say? Beauty, I really didn't see it, you turned out to be a student at Harvard University, since your family is so rich, why do you want to let you come out to set up a stall, like you, you want to have good looks, you want to have a big beauty, you have to have a degree, it's better to pick a job here? Even if you don't look for a job and go to your family's company, there should be no problem......"?
Seeing the depressed expression of the beautiful stall owner opposite, Gu Nian's curiosity became heavier and heavier, and he couldn't help but ask the other party in detail.
"Alas, you don't know, according to my grandfather, say that my grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's ......, anyway, I don't know how many generations of ancestors, I used to be the only disciple of a Buddhist monk, of course, it is a lay disciple, otherwise how can there be our Chang family, it seems that our ancestor once promised the master one thing, to help him guard the edge of this West Lake, waiting for the next destined person to appear, and then give this string of beads to the destined person, but, no, Our Chang family is on the edge of this West Lake, that is, more than a thousand years, basically every fifty or sixty years or so, we will wait until once, and then hand over the beads, so that a total of counted, our family has handed over a total of eighteen times here, I just don't know when this time the destined person will be able to wait, or, this is just a beautiful legend, Ken Ben can't wait for any destined person......"!
The statement of the beautiful stall owner raised Gu Nian's interest, but I didn't expect that there would be such a trustworthy family now, for a mere promise, the whole family waited here, that is, thousands of years, this is the consumption of more than ten or twenty generations!
"Didn't they all send it away? Why do you keep sending it away? How many strings of beads are there like you, why can't you finish sending them......"?
Faced with Gu Nian's question, the beautiful stall owner simply said as if pouring beans into a bamboo tube: "Alas, you don't know, I really don't know what kind of drug our ancestors were fed by these destined people, basically after sending it out, at most thirty years, this bead string will be sent back by the destined person, and will once again designate an old ancestor from our family, and arrange for their family branch to continue to wait here, this guard, it will be directly guarded until ......now"!
"Ahh There is also this kind of thing, so this fate is a cheat, and you can't keep looking for your family to cheat? This is too unusual, oh, by the way, beauty, how do you tell if the other party is destined or not, don't really have this destined person when the time comes, you don't know, this string of beads, won't it never be sent out......"!
"Hehe, how is it possible, my old man said that as long as someone who is destined to hold this bead in his hand for more than a minute, this bead will have a vision, and I have two things here that are also for people who are destined to give them, and they will also give me a reminder of ...... on their own"!
While the beautiful stall owner patiently explained to Gu Nian, neither of them noticed that the string of beads held by Gu Nian in his hand slowly emitted a cloud of yellow rainbow light there, and the light became stronger and stronger.
