Chapter 38 Dyeing Cloth
Guan Mingyu and Luo Xiaomeng traveled from Beijing to the west, through the mountainous plateau of Shanxi, then through Shaanxi, through the endless Mongolian steppe in summer, to see the vast desert of Xinjiang, and then from the plateau, from Sichuan to the east, all the way down the Yangtze River, to the Yellow Mountain.
There are so many delicate rivers and mountains in this painting, there are snowy fields in the painting, there are snowy fields, there are the Great Wall, stretching for thousands of miles, there are clouds, the vast expanse, there is the red sun, the rising sun rises in the east, there is the Yellow River, rushing down, there is the Yangtze River, moistening the common people, there are green bamboos, the spirit is introverted, there are green mountains, green and majestic.
And the prototype of this green mountain is the Yellow Mountain, the kind of strange pine sea of clouds, the kind of verdant and majestic, if you don't go there once, you can't experience it at all.
Luo Xiaomeng and Guan Mingyu stood on the top of Tiandu Peak, looking at the majestic and magnificent scenery of Yellow Mountain. The sky is still very hazy, the mountain is full of fog, the sun has not yet risen, it is very dangerous here, the whole peak, there are only two of them.
There is only a trace of fish belly white on the horizon, the sea of clouds extends to the endless distance, Guan Mingyu and Luo Xiaomeng stand on the top of the peak, a round of red sun rises from the mountains, the red light finally makes the quiet mountains instantly vibrant, this instant leap, so that Guan Mingyu is also shocked.
It is the unobstructed rising sun, which brings light and warmth. Guan Mingyu's mind suddenly let go, and along the way, there were towering snow-capped mountains, vast snowfields, green grasslands, the rushing Yellow River, waterfalls, and the stretching Great Wall...... The scenery along the way flashed from my heart, and this rising sun was like a light that lit up the world, shining brightly in an instant.
He threw his fist and threw a punch.
Luo Xiaomeng is like seeing a bright lamp jumping out of the dark, like a bright moon hanging high in the mountains, like a sun highlighted in the rain, illuminating the darkness, illuminating the night, illuminating the wilderness, containing the breath of life, shattering the darkness that has lingered for eternity.
This is the real Great Light Fist, life and light.
It wasn't until Guan Mingyu closed her fist that she breathed a sigh of relief, and the feeling of oppression in her heart gradually disappeared. A hazy joy appeared on her fair face, and she said, "Master, your Great Light Fist has finally been completed." ”
"This is also luck, when I first saw so many delicate original paintings, my focus was on experiencing the magnificence of mountains and rivers. This time, I saw the beauty of the mountains and rivers, but the moment the sun jumped out of the ground, I felt the true meaning of the light, and this trace has been turned into a fist. ”
"Master, so you don't need to go to see the autumn cicada?" Luo Xiaomeng asked, tilting her head.
"Yes, not only to see, but also to look closely. Xiaomeng, Qiu Cicada is not much older than you, Wuji Knife is in hand, and she is also one of the few strange women in the world, don't you want to meet it?"
"Naturally, I want to see what the woman that the master wants to see in person is like. Hearing Guan Mingyu's teasing, Luo Xiaomeng's face turned red, and then she said without timidity.
"Okay, let's go, Xiaomeng, let's go around, let's go around, this trip out, always have to experience the essence of each place, otherwise how to practice your own artistic conception?"
He walked forward slowly, Luo Xiaomeng also smiled, and followed Guan Mingyu down the mountain.
The scenery of Yellow Mountain is beautiful, known as "the return of the five mountains does not look at the mountain, the return of the Yellow Mountain does not look at the mountain", naturally there is its peculiarity. Guan Mingyu and Luo Xiaomeng are both martial arts practitioners, their physical strength is extraordinary, and they can go to many places where tourists can't go, and experience unusual fun.
Soon, the two arrived in Jiangnan. Bluestone Street, drizzle and hazy, no paper umbrellas, small bridges and flowing water, this is the scenery of Jiangnan in the eyes of the world.
Guan Mingyu and Luo Xiaomeng passed by Suzhou and saw Qili Water Town, Gardens, Tiger Hill, and Hanshan Temple. Chartering a boat from Taihu Lake, they went to Huzhou, which is the hometown of Chinese silk, and the two of them went to Hangzhou after a little play.
Hangzhou West Lake, a paradise on earth, has beautiful landscapes and beautiful stories. A few days later, the two appeared in Wuzhen.
Wuzhen is one of the four ancient towns in China, although there is no close-up in the painting "So Many Delicate Rivers and Mountains", but the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River is graceful and beautiful, poetic and picturesque, which is reflected in the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River. Fu Lao's lingering rain and mist, Guan Lao's graceful and meticulous, all draw the poetry of Jiangnan.
Guan Mingyu and Luo Xiaomeng came to Wuzhen, and the time was just opened in the morning. It's only eight o'clock at this time, and it's June weather, and the green trees and birdsong are all staged, and the sun shines through the eaves and cracks, and the water ripples beautifully.
The first place the two decided was to go to the east gate, because the west gate is the big head, so it is natural to see the cultural beauty of the east gate first, and then see the original taste of the classical water town in the west gate is picturesque.
There are contradictory former residences in the east, numismatic halls, dyeing workshops, aspiration academies, etc., the two of them came all the way, maybe it is a working day, and it is not spring, there are not too many tourists, but there are also a lot. Guan Mingyu watched and laughed all the way, and Luo Xiaomeng also held an oil-paper umbrella that she had just bought, and she didn't look like her. Only the invited private tour guide Liu Qing also told various allusions from time to time.
Several people came to the dyeing workshop, and there were large strips of cloth hanging in the dyeing workshop, restoring the process of dyeing cloth hundreds of years ago. Luo Xiaomeng looked at it and smiled: "Master, when I was a child, I watched costume martial arts, and there were always many masters fighting with bad guys in the dyeing workshop. They are usually beaten at first, and then until they are about to die, they will remember what their master has taught, and then a scene flashes in their heads, and they will continue to cover these strips of cloth in the dyeing workshop, and finally use these to achieve counter-killing. ”
Such a scene is one of the common scenes in Hong Kong martial arts dramas, and many have similar scenes, and the teenager Wong Feihong starring Jet Li is a classic. Thinking of this, Guan Mingyu smiled dumbly: "Xiaomeng, when people suffer major setbacks, they will think crankily in their heads, and the characters in martial arts are naturally the same." Of course, some people get distracted and naturally can't think of anything. Some people have a flash of inspiration and remember something that will help them, and that's not a lot. In martial arts dramas, in order to show the twists and turns of the plot and the protagonist's near-death life, it is natural to adopt the form of first suppressing and then promoting in order to attract the audience. ”
"Master, I didn't say this, I talked about their martial arts. In the TV series, there is the concept of light work, in the real dyeing workshop, with the power of the warrior, the shelf of the dyeing workshop will break as soon as it is pulled, and it is impossible to fly around on it. ”
"What's impossible? Xiao Meng, martial arts practice to the strength, can change in an emergency, a feather can't fall, mosquitoes can't be added, the moment it comes into contact with the dyed cloth, you can use this force to achieve the adjustment of your own state, but you can't fly around on it. ”
Liu Qing is a *** college student about twenty years old, she listened to it with a lot of taste, and said with a smile: "Mr. Guan seems to have studied martial arts?"
Guan Mingyu didn't mind, and smiled: "Haha, it's just a mouth cannon, let's go, Xiaomeng, let's go and dye a piece of cloth too." ”
Luo Xiaomeng is wearing a casual shirt today, she is still wearing a hundred years of braids, wearing a pair of running shoes, she smiled: "Okay, master, you are going to open a dyeing workshop." ”
"Yes, I'm going to give you some color today. Let's go, Liu Damei, let's go in and have fun. After speaking, I didn't wait for the tour guide, I walked directly inside and paid the money.
He handed over the tickets to Luo Xiaomeng and Liu Qing, and Liu Qing smiled: "Haha, I will also try Mr. Guan's blessing today." "She's just here as a part-time tour guide, not a land-sitting household of this generation, and she hasn't played either.
She pulled Luo Xiaomeng: "Let's go, Xiaomeng, let's dye the cloth." ”
A few people walked to the side of the dye vat, and naturally there were staff members to explain. The dyes synthesized by modern technology in the dye vat are naturally not as complex as the ancient plant dyes. The temperature of the dye vat has already been adjusted, thrown into the water, and evenly, and then it is baked in the machine, and then it can be hung up, and the dyed cloth can be taken away in ten minutes at most.
After listening to the program, Luo Xiaomeng was happy: "It's so simple, let's go, Liu Qing, let's try one of them first." ”
They are usually called by their first name or nickname at this age. It's a pity that the two don't know each other very well, so they called their names, which is not as polite as Guan Mingyu at all.
Liu Qing answered, walked to the side of the dye vat, the working aunt gave the beauty a plastic coat, Liu Qing hurriedly put it on, Luo Xiaomeng pouted, and said, "Thank you, auntie, but I will pay attention, I won't wear it." Before he finished speaking, Liu Qing had already put the cloth into the dye vat.
She stirred it twice, and when she saw that it was basically even, she picked it up. When she saw that there were deep and shallow on it, she immediately pouted dissatisfied, and put it in again and stirred it for a while before taking it out.
Now it's basically fine, she looked at Luo Xiaomeng: "Xiaomeng, you can try it too." ”
Luo Xiaomeng nodded, she pinched one corner of the cloth with both hands, and then reached into the dye vat. She didn't stir like Liu Qing, but her arm kept vibrating, and the whole cloth was like being covered with a shell, and it kept vibrating. Immediately afterward, she exchanged her left and right hands, and the cloth flew out of the dye vat, straight like a handkerchief that had been turned in the middle of the two of them, only horizontally becoming vertical.
At this moment, she shook her hands, and saw the dye water spilling from the cloth, but it did not splash, and all fell into the dye vat. Then she grabbed the bracelets on both sides and handed the cloth to the aunt next to her, and the cloth was very even, better than the craftsmanship of the best dyer.
Liu Qing and the aunt were dumbfounded. After a while, Liu Qing muttered, "Xiaomeng, it turns out that you are really a martial arts master." ”
Luo Xiaomeng smiled, she said: "Haha, I just learned a few tricks, where is the martial arts master you want." After speaking, she looked at Guan Mingyu, Guan Mingyu smiled, twitched the corner of her mouth and nodded.
The aunt also sighed: "Little girl, with your hands, you can open a handmade dyeing workshop and make a fortune." ”
"Auntie, if I can't find a job in the future, I'll listen to you and open a dyeing workshop. Luo Xiaomeng looked at Guan Mingyu: "Master, don't you want to show me the color?
Guan Mingyu grinned: "Haha, you have a good look at that little meng." ”
He grabbed the handrope of the dyeing cloth with both hands, and like Liu Qing, he directly pressed the dyeing cloth under the level of the dye vat, and then took it out after only a few seconds, and the dyed cloth had changed color, and there were no water stains on it.
