Chapter 22: What to sell?
Although I was very resistant, I still knew that there was no escaping such a thing as going to school, and of course, as soon as school started, I was almost remembered by the whole class.
"Hey, you know what, there's an out-of-town guy in our class, and it's awkward to talk!"
"Isn't it? I really don't know what the teacher thinks, accept such a dirt bun and come in.
"Looking at him in such a village, did the principal pick up an orphan outside and kindly let him come to our school?"
"Hahaha!"
It's been a week, my ears are full of these mocking voices, I can feel them pointing at me, in fact, the students are okay, I think I am much more mature than them, but I am just looking for someone to step on it to improve my image, because obviously, when Banhua appeared, the ridicule was like a wave, a ** wave.
In fact, that's all, I can feel obvious disdain in the eyes of the head teacher. I'm the oil bottle in the class, and I feel uncomfortable when I see it. I remember one time, I went to hand in my homework. I happened to hear her talking to the teacher in the office about me.
"This Yu Xiaokang, you must be careful, you said that a person from other places has never seen the world, what if you look at the things of your classmates at work and steal them?"
"This kind of outsider, his hands and feet are not clean, and his heart is very dark, he must teach him a good lesson, I don't know what the principal thinks. Must recruit such a thing? ”
"Who knows, just guard against it anyway, outsiders don't have anything good!"
I was still a kid after all, so I couldn't help but go in and silently returned to the classroom.
When I went home, it was the first time I cried to Master when I came to Beijing: "Master, I feel homesick, and no one in Beijing likes me!" ”
"Child, you will soon thank those who mock you, who trained your mind and patience and made you mature."
"If you can't see it, you will be called Yi, if you don't hear it, you will be called Xi, and if you can't fight, you will be called a small name." These three cannot be interrogated, so they are mixed into one. I understand Master's reasoning, what should I do if I can't do it? "I habitually say the content of the Tao Te Ching, but can I also do this kind of thing that only a great sage can do?
"Child, Master taught you a sentence, you must endure everything!" The master took a sip of tea: "Of course, if you can't help it, you will beat him to death, who would dare to bully my apprentice!" What is your homeroom teacher's name? ”
"Zhang Hongxia!"
"Think about it!"
"Huh?" I thought that Master was going to help me get angry after asking, but it turned out that I was really just asking, so I could only hang my head and think.
I dread most every day to get out of bed and go to school to face the malice of the whole world. Every day I just look forward to getting out of school. It's finally the weekend, and the only feeling is happiness.
After I finished thinking about it as usual and washed up, I found Master walking around the east room alone, looking confused. The room was full of books from our side and some things I wouldn't touch. I walked over curiously.
"These ancient books are the brainchild of my master and me. Can't be sold! Otherwise, the juniors and disciples know that they won't beat me? I watched him hesitate for a long time on the edge of the bookshelf. I stroked the book, sighed and walked away!
He opened another cabinet: "This is an antique left over from our line!" Can't touch it! ”
"The tonic of the well-off is already tight, and these things are used as little as the same, so it's hard for me to ask for four.... Well, no! "Watch him pacing back and forth.
I was moved in my heart, it turned out that Master wanted to sell these roots of his life because of me and my body!
Finally, Master walked up to a few large boxes and opened them with a squeak! I was about to see what was inside, but I didn't want the master to call me: "Xiaokang, come here, close your eyes and help me choose one." ”
I grabbed a piece of Kodama and handed it to Master.
"This piece of kodyu, I have been warm for eight years, and I have been with me for more than 40 years, and I listen to the scriptures and chant with me every day, which is also a treasure." "This is a treasure?"
"Why isn't it a treasure? I originally wanted to use it as a magic weapon, to make a formation eye, to calm things, and to do something. Of course, given to ordinary people, this is a treasure. Master said to me.
"Master, you said that we cultivators should be humble and low-key." I glanced at him.
Master knocked me on the head: "Don't pretend to understand!"
The master put the jade in and closed the box, and then said to himself: "The jade still can't be sold, and when the jade is given away, it is the hearts of the people, especially the ones I have cultivated, so this piece of jade has a spirit in my heart, and maybe you can use it, and you can't equate it with money, otherwise it will defile my state of mind." ”
"Master, will I stop taking medicine?" I saw that Master was embarrassed, and I immediately said it.
But Master didn't pay attention to me. He walked straight to the table and picked up a picture scroll: "Or just it!" ”
I know that my master loves to draw two strokes, but often he tears it up after painting, usually when I am thinking, he is drawing on the side, I think he didn't save one, it turns out that he left a few pieces?
It seems that I, the poor master, are desperate for me and ready to sell my own calligraphy and paintings!
He carefully stretched out the scroll inside, and saw that there were several stacks of lifelike pine trees in the painting, which were very vigorous, and I couldn't say what was good, but it was very beautiful anyway.
In addition to these pine trees, there are four seals, a few rows of small letters, and a signature with the name of Deli.
"Who is Deli? Haven't heard of it? Master, do you have another name? ”
"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, this Deli is a person of the Song Dynasty, he painted a pine tree with his hand, does not paint a skeleton, and directly renders it in ink, but it has a unique style, it is really a master of 'boneless painting'." Master carefully picked up the painting, looked at it carefully, and explained it to me in a babbling voice.
"These people have never been exposed to Taoist metaphysics in their lives, but there is a Taoist rhyme in calligraphy and painting, and they are really great masters. It's convincing. The master touched the painting and said with a face full of reluctance.
"That's it, I used to hang for a few years, accompanied me to read the scriptures, and I can be regarded as having some aura, selling him to a person who knows the goods, but he can also block a disaster for others, I hope to find a person who knows how to paint and Taoism, but who to sell it to?" Master decided what to sell, and began to struggle again. Master must have been afraid that he would fall into the wrong hands. Prevent disasters for bad guys, and Master should also have cause and effect!
"Let's go, come with me to a place to have a long experience, and let anyone follow suit." Master took a cloth bag full of stains and filled it with the painting. Then he said to me, "The little rabbit cub doesn't make breakfast, is it wrong to be so unfilial?" ”
This bad old man, who is in a bad mood and angry with me?!
