[075] Chance encounter
"What is that place?"
Mo Yan dragged Bai Xiaoshan and asked, pointing to the garden. He could feel as if something was calling him, and it was extremely intense, from the depths of his soul......
This made Mo Yan a little surprised, he specialized in cultivating the way of the divine soul, the strength of the divine soul was no longer moved by external objects, but at this time, the divine soul was overjoyed, and sent a message from his subconscious, urging him to go to the garden.
Bai Xiaoshan said: "That's Xiuyuan, and it's also where we're going." The exchange meeting held by Mr. Mei is held once every three months. As long as it's not windy or rainy, it's basically held in Xiuyuan. ”
Mo Yan nodded, saying in his heart that this is the best, but it saves me a lot of trouble.
For a monk like him, there wasn't much in the world worth pursuing. The world's valued financial power, antiques and curiosities, to him is no different from a stubborn stone. Only things that are in harmony with the Great Dao can make him truly tempted. Once such a thing appears, he will definitely fight for it with all his might. And the so-called 'full strength', simply put, is to buy if you can, and if you can't buy it, you will steal, rob, or cheat, as long as the thing is in hand, unscrupulous means!
I will want to get it quickly, this is Mo Yan's current state of mind!
This state of mind has nothing to do with morality, nothing to do with good or evil, for monks, everything can be discarded, only the Tao is eternal. When you encounter something that is in harmony with the Tao, you will want to get it and then be fast. God blocks and kills God, Buddha blocks and kills Buddha, without this great will, what truth do you cultivate, what kind of way do you ask?
"What is it that makes the spirits so restless?"
Mysterious things are close at hand, but Mo Yan is reluctant to observe them with his own consciousness, and feels that it seems more interesting to uncover the mystery step by step.
"Let's go, let's go and see ......"
Mo Yan took the lead in walking towards Xiuyuan, and Mo Chou followed him like a little tail, jumping up and down when he walked, looking no different from a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl. Bai Xiaoshan became Mo Chou's follower, following her step by step, with undisguised concern on his face, as if he was afraid that Mo Chou would fall.
The three of them walked along the gravel path in the show garden, and after a while, the scenery in front of them suddenly opened up.
In front of Mo Yan's eyes is an empty green space, with six small pavilions in the center, and between the pavilions, there are cobblestone paths connecting them.
"It seems that we came at the right time...... Bai Xiaoshan said: "Don't worry about it, you see, those pavilions are places for communication, and the things that everyone brings are placed in the pavilions." We looked down the path one by one, and when we came across something we liked, we could stop and communicate with the owner. ”
Mo Chou said: "But I don't think there are a lot of things in it......"
Bai Xiaoshan explained: "The things in the pavilion are all small pieces, and the larger ones or especially precious things are placed in another place. ”
Mo Chou asked, "Where is it, why didn't I see it?" ”
Bai Xiaoshan said with a smile: "There is a special showroom in front, which is also the place where Old Man Mei places his collections. After reading the contents of the pavilion, I will take you there again. ”
In the six pavilions, more than a dozen people are already walking back and forth, either browsing or stopping to communicate softly.
"Brother, let's go over and have a look......"
Mo Chou held Mo Yan's arm and couldn't wait to pass.
Mo Yan asked with a smile, "Have you thought about what exactly you want to buy?" Calligraphy and painting, or jade? ”
Mo Chou said: "It's best to be calligraphy and painting, and it's calligraphy and painting like pine, plum and bamboo orchid." ”
Bai Xiaoshan interjected: "If you want to buy calligraphy and paintings, you have to go to Old Man Mei's collection room." Things like calligraphy and painting are delicate and not suitable for an environment like the open air. ”
Mo Chou blinked his eyes and said to Bai Xiaoshan: "Speaking of calligraphy and painting, I have something I want to ask you." ”
Bai Xiaoshan said sincerely: "I know everything, I can't say anything." ”
Mo Chou said: "You often go in and out of here, you should be very familiar with Old Man Mei, right?" ”
Bai Xiaoshan said: "It's true that I come here often, and I've seen Old Man Mei a few times, but it's definitely not familiar." Don't forget, I'm just a grandchild in front of him, and when I meet, I can only say hello to his old man. If you want to talk more, it depends on whether his old man is in this mood. ”
Mo Chou couldn't help but be a little disappointed, and said, "That's ......"
While a few people were talking, they had already entered a pavilion.
Bai Xiaoshan asked, "Mo Chou, do you want to ask Old Man Mei for a piece of writing as a birthday gift?" ”
Mo Chou was surprised: "When did you become so smart?" ”
When Bai Xiaoshan heard this, he smiled bitterly: "It's not that I'm smart, but the people who came here, nine out of ten have had such thoughts. But it's a pity that the old man has half sealed the pen a long time ago, and now he only writes at most three words a year, and rarely gives it away. ”
Mo Chou's eyes lit up and said, "That said, it's still possible, right?" ”
Bai Xiaoshan nodded and said, "It's possible, the key depends on whether you have this fate." ”
Fate?
Mo Chou Qi said: "What do you mean? ”
Bai Xiaoshan explained: "It's very simple, if you want to get Old Man Mei's words, the key depends on whether his old man looks at you or not." Look at it, if you don't ask for it, he will take the initiative to give you a word, and he will wave it on the spot. ”
Mo Chou stuck out his tongue and said, "So that's the case...... If I had come a few years earlier, I could have dressed as cute, but now I don't have any hope. ”
Bai Xiaoshan wanted to say, in fact, you are more lovely than an angel in my heart, and you don't need to pretend at all!
But he only dared to say this kind of thing in his heart, and the expression on his face was more 'gentleman' than ever......
Mo Yan browsed around the small pavilion at random, most of the porcelain in this pavilion was placed, and he looked at it for a long time, but he didn't see what the value of these objects was.
'Porcelain' is a common word for 'words', and it is obvious that the things here cannot be used for birthday gifts.
The three of them didn't stay here too long, and walked down the path to the next pavilion.
Mo Yan's mind was no longer here at this time, because he had already determined that the item he wanted was not here, but somewhere else.
However, as long as the thing is still there, there is no need to rush.
Mo Chou also enjoyed this kind of time, and it took about an hour for several people to browse and chat, and it took about an hour to complete all six kiosks.
Walking out of the last small pavilion, under the guidance of Bai Xiaoshan, the three of them walked towards Mei Sanding's collection room.
"Little sister, why are you here?"
When the three of them passed through a small forest, they took a short break because they were greedy for the scenery, and at this time, a few people came from behind.
One of the personable men looked surprised when he saw Mo Chou.
Mo Chou was pleasantly surprised: "Brother Xianyu, why are you here?" ”
This person is Zhou Xianyu, and he smiled: "Not only me, but your second brother is also here." ”
As soon as the words fell, Mo Yu walked out from behind him, frowned slightly, and said, "Tomorrow is the old man's birthday, why don't you stay at home, what are you running around?" ”
Mo Chou grimaced and said, "I want you to take care of it!" ”
Mo Yu was about to speak, when he suddenly saw Mo Yan on the side, and his expression couldn't help but froze.
Of course, he knew that Mo Yan had returned to Kyoto, and he also knew that his eldest brother lived in the purple bamboo forest. In addition, Bai Xiaoshan was taught by Mo Yan very clearly......
"Hell, why is this guy here? Didn't Xiaomei say what 'homework' he was doing? ”
Facing his half-brother, to be honest, Mo Yu is still a little jealous. The main thing is that I was taught many times when I was a child, and I have left a psychological shadow. When he and Mo Yan talked on the phone, they were thousands of miles away, and they dared to say anything bastard. But when I really face it, I always feel that I lack a confidence. So much so that when I learned yesterday that Mo Yan was living in the purple bamboo forest and refused to go home, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Ha, sure enough, it's Brother Yan'er, I haven't seen you for a long time!"
Zhou Xianyu stood up in time, grabbed Mo Yan's hand, and said happily: "Yesterday, I heard that my little sister said that you have come back, so I thought about looking for you to drink." Speaking of which, we haven't seen each other in more than ten years, right? In the blink of an eye, you have grown up, and I have grown old! ”
Zhou Xianyu is known for his eight-sided exquisiteness and long-sleeved dancing, holding Mo Yan's hand at this time, his expression is happy and sincere, without the slightest disguise.
Mo Yan smiled, withdrew his hand quietly, and said, "It's true that I haven't seen you for a long time......"
No matter how sincere Zhou Xianyu's expression was, Mo Yan just didn't see it, neither arrogant nor humble, and smiled lightly.
"Brother Xianyu, what are you doing here?"
Seeing that the atmosphere was not very warm, and even a little awkward, Mo Chou immediately changed the topic.
Zhou Xianyu smiled and said: "Tomorrow is my aunt's birthday, and your second brother and I are here to send an invitation to Mei Lao." The two elders have been friends for decades, and my aunt and grandfather said that anyone can not be invited, but Mei Lao must be invited. And also designated your second brother to come to the door in person, and there must be no less courtesy. ”
After a slight pause, he said again: "By the way, you and Brother Yan are here to ......."
Mo Chou smiled: "I haven't prepared grandpa's birthday gift yet, my eldest brother is with me to choose a gift, and Bai Xiaoshan is here to pay for it." ”
Zhou Xianyu glanced at Bai Xiaoshan and said with a smile: "Xiaoshan is also here......"
When several people spoke, Mo Yan's gaze fell on a man behind Zhou Xianyu.
This man was about forty years old, and he was ordinary-looking, but he was tall and had a dignified air.
He followed behind Zhou Xianyu, seemingly ordinary, just an ordinary follower. But when standing, the feet are not too bad, and the center of gravity is slightly forward. This posture is extremely elastic and can jump up at any time without charging up to save or hurt someone.
"It's actually a ...... who practices internal kung fu" Mo Yan knew that there were many martial artists in this world who followed the path of the inner family, such as Mei Sanding was one of them. But I know that I know, but I have never really seen it, and when I saw one at this time, I was immediately curious.
The two temples of the person behind Zhou Xianyu were slightly raised, and when his eyes were opened and closed, the essence was condensed, which were the characteristics of practicing internal kung fu. Speaking of which, the uncle who taught Mo Yan to stand on the pile and vomit since he was a child took the path of the inner family, and before the left Taoist did not 'show up', Mo Yan also practiced the inner family kung fu.
At this time, seeing a 'living' inner family martial artist, Mo Yan couldn't help but feel a little kind in his heart.
