Chapter 135: Ten Paintings
The teachers' dormitory is the old school office remodeled, located directly behind the teaching building, geographically and the canteen form an equilateral triangle, if Cheng Mo comes out of the teaching building, does not detour, and goes directly to the teacher's dormitory on the main road, it only takes about three or four minutes, in fact, it is slightly closer than going to the canteen.
However, Cheng Mo is not walking on the main road that can also be connected to the canteen at the moment, but on the other side of the forest path, which is farther away, and it takes a lot longer.
At this moment, it is the meal, and most of the teachers and students, whether it is in the cafeteria, or on the way to the off-campus cafeteria. Therefore, the bamboo forest path leading to the classroom dormitory was empty, except for clumps of emerald green and straight dragon-headed bamboos swaying in the breeze.
Cheng Mo walked on the narrow road paved with blue bricks, and walked to the main road around the entire campus after several meanders, and across the cement road is the red brick building of some years, this kind of building was very common in the eighties and nineties, but to this day, the city is changing with each passing day, and in 02 years, the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Construction jointly issued a document requiring three to five years to cancel the red bricks, so this kind of buildings that could be seen everywhere in the land of China disappeared.
In fact, this three-story building in the Western style of the Republic of China is built with a kind of red brick called "Qingshui" inside and outside, the color is very different from the ordinary red brick building, plus the round arch and the square pillar inlaid with white marble decoration, which makes people instantly have the illusion of returning to the Anti-Japanese War period.
Cheng Mo approached the small red building in the shade of the sycamore forest, the mottled wall tiles were full of green creepers, and the arch made of red bricks in the middle was also carved with a five-pointed star relief, and the entrance to the arch was a transparent corridor, and the doors were all shuttered doors painted with white paint, which looked beautiful like some ancient Nanyang manors.
Cheng Mo discerned the direction, walked to the left, and walked to the end of the corridor, saw the copper door number engraved with the number 101, and stood in front of the white louvered double door and knocked cautiously.
After a while, a crack in the shutter door opened, and Shen Youyi's smiling face flashed, followed by a gentle whisper, "It's coming!"
Cheng Mo said "um", Shen Youyi opened the door, and said with a smile: "It's all ready, just waiting for you to start." ”
Cheng Mo walked into Shen Youyi's dormitory, which was not as elegant as the appearance of this small building, there was basically no decoration in the room, the reddish-brown wooden floor was covered with abrasion marks, and a long fluorescent lamp hung on the roof, which was very old. On the side of the door is a white solid wood wardrobe, and on the left and right sides of the room is a wooden bed with a white mosquito net, and at the foot of the bed is a desk.
At the moment, there is a desk full of brown wooden boxes filled with colorful food, including tuna salad, tuna omelets, boiled fish cakes, fried green beans with shrimp, honey-glazed saury, beef patties and a bowl of sour plum soup with ice cubes......
The amount of each food is not very large, but both the color and shape are beautiful, and the wooden lunch box with a strong texture is beautiful and delicate, like a restaurant advertising painting.
Shen Youyi dragged away the square beige wooden chair, "Drink a bowl of sour plum soup first, open your stomach, I started making tea last night, boiling black plum and hawthorn, and it took several hours to get it ready." ”
Cheng Mo sat on the chair and picked up the white porcelain bowl, there were still a little fresh osmanthus flowers floating on the amaranth red sour plum soup, and there were tea bags wrapped in gauze, and the rich fragrance of osmanthus mixed with a faint plum flavor, which was mouthwatering.
Cheng Mo took a sip and felt that this was the best drink he had ever drunk.
Shen Youyi stroked her skirt and sat opposite Cheng Mo, and asked a little worriedly, "How is it?"
Cheng Mo put down the bowl, "I can't find words to describe it, but I remember that Hao Yixing of the Qing Dynasty wrote "Dumen Bamboo Branch Ci" ....." After a pause, Cheng Mo recited softly: "'The bottom of the water is drained, and the summer is naturally cool in Yanshan.....; If you call me to say it, it will probably be: through the heart, like nectar sprinkled on the heart....."
Shen Youyi took another piece of light yellow tuna egg roll and put it in the brown wooden bowl in front of Cheng Mo, "Is it really that good?" When I was studying, I was in the capital, and there was a snack bar near the school that did this, and I studied it for a long time before I figured out the general method..... This is the first time I have made it for others to drink, I don't know how it is, you must not be afraid of offending me, just tell the truth, in case I make it for others to drink, I will lose face, but I will blame you!"
"Sister Xi, you know, I rarely use this kind of half-literate sentence, but this bowl of sour plum soup, although it is a very ordinary drink, makes me feel very elegant and literary, if you use very straightforward words to describe it, it doesn't feel so tasteful, so I can't help but be a little sour...."
Shen Youyi chuckled and said, "Hearing you say that, I feel like I can go and open a small shop to make a living." ”
Cheng Mo shook his head, "Sister Xi is modest! If you want to open a store, it is definitely not just to make a living, but you will definitely become an Internet celebrity store with a little operation. What Shih Tzu or something like that must be your ....."
Shen Youyi saw that Cheng Mo was serious, and knew that he was not joking, although Cheng Mo said two cold jokes yesterday, but it was probably a matter of interest, most of the time Cheng Mo spoke very rigorously and seriously. Besides, Shen Youyi still has a certain understanding of herself, knowing that with her own appearance conditions, it is more than enough to be an Internet celebrity, and when she first entered the school, Changya's students uploaded her photos to the Internet.
Everyone was impressed by Shen Youyi's beautiful figure and elegant temperament, and many netizens left messages saying: "With such a teacher, who still skips class?"
"I'm willing never to graduate!"
Changya was also selected as the happiest school because of Xie Minyun and Shen Youyi.
"The most beautiful female teacher in China" is also on the hot search, and the photos of her in class in the classroom are not only uploaded everywhere on Weibo, but even there are many posts about her on the Internet.
The perfect face and devil's figure fascinated foreign netizens, and they said: "This is my ideal type!"
The title of "the most beautiful female teacher in China" was given to her by netizens in the Republic of China.
But in fact, Shen Youyi was very disgusted with the title of "the most beautiful female teacher in China", and had to repeatedly ask the students not to take photos secretly in class, and not to post her photos on the Internet, and even asked the school to negotiate with some websites to take down her photos.
She has no interest in being famous Shen Youyi, and Shen Youyi knows that if she had sent her photos and manuscripts to the editor back then, she would have become a "beautiful writer" long ago.
Shen Youyi has always believed that words should not be linked to appearance, and writers should not betray their characters, so they have never thought of using their appearance to achieve their ideals. As for becoming an "Internet celebrity", it is not the life that Shen Youyi wants.
So she also shook her head, "That's not interesting, I like to make food, but I just think that life sometimes has to have a sense of ritual, eating is something that can be very interesting in life, in line with the mood of not compromising and treating everything with heart to do its attitude.... If it's just to make money, it's too tedious. ”
Cheng Mo said: "Well, I also think..... Selfishly, I still think that it is best for Sister Xi to only make it for me....."
"That's good, when you get rich in the future, hire Sister Xi to be your exclusive chef!" Shen Youyi said with a smile.
"Don't wait for later! Sister Xi said the number, I can ask for ..... now," Cheng Mo said with a solemn expression.
Shen Youyi froze slightly, the air seemed to freeze for a moment in silence, Shen Youyi didn't know how to answer Cheng Mo's words, remembering the famous brand on Yuelu Mountain, Cheng Mo is also known as "Mr. 200 million", she regretted that she made a joke that she shouldn't have made, and Cheng Mo is a person who doesn't joke much, Cheng Mo is very serious at the moment, if she still responds with a joke, it will be too shallow; if she refuses, she is afraid that Cheng Mo will be hurt.
Shen Youyi could only use eating to hide that little bit of embarrassment in the entanglement, she picked up a piece of fish cake that she had cut into stars, put it in her mouth, chewed it slowly, looked at Cheng Mo's face as if nothing happened, and said with a smile: "If you can solve the case of 'mysterious chalk painting', Sister Xi will promise you........." As for the salary..... If the works of the two of us can be published in the future, Sister Xi will not share your copyright fees....."
Cheng Mo nodded, "Bargain....."
Shen Youyi asked again: "Then do you have any inspiration for the case?"
Cheng Mo chewed the fried green beans with shrimp, and said vaguely: "There is no progress yet, how the other party completed such a complex chalk drawing in fifteen minutes is the key point, but this is not what I am puzzled about, what I am wondering about is, what is the motive of the other party? I looked at the ten chalk drawings roughly, and felt that the meaning expressed by the other party did not seem to be as obscene as everyone thought.....
"Well, yes? I think he drew it very well, and if it weren't for me, maybe I would have been able to appreciate it objectively. Shen Youyi said with some regret.
Cheng Mo said in a low voice: "But if these paintings are not only artistic, but also have other meanings, they are actually very bad things, in this case, this person is even more dangerous, because people who engage in art are often imaginative, and cannot use common sense and logic to speculate his thoughts and judge his actions, for example, normal people generally go to restaurants to eat, this accuracy rate is as high as 95%, but criminals with psychological abnormalities can't scrutinize him like this, he went to the restaurant maybe because a waiter inadvertently offended him....."
"Well, most of the serial killers in this book are like that, but I don't think they're as evil as you say!"
"I think so, too, but his paintings remind me of Toshio Saeki, a master of Japanese erotic painting..... Especially the painting of a boy in a student uniform smiling and tied to a chair and a female teacher with a whip stepping on the boy's body in high heels, if you look closely, you will see that not only is the whip dripping with blood, but also a pair of voyeuristic eyes are painted on the side, and I can feel the outline of death in it, the voyeur set up to enhance the drama is essentially pointing to emptiness, and after the onlookers have reveled, everything escapes into a kind of nothingness. Cheng Mo looked at the void and muttered like a memory.
"Is it so mysterious as you say? I want to take a look at it when you say it..... Do you have a picture here?"
Cheng Mo nodded, put the chopsticks on the bowl, took out his mobile phone, flipped out the chalk photo that Fu Yuanzhuo sent him, and handed the mobile phone to Shen Youyi.
Shen Youyi took the phone and looked at it seriously, "It's really in the style of ukiyo-e! I was in a hurry to erase it, but I didn't read it carefully..... It looks like it mimics the traces of the style of Toshio Saeki and Nobuyoshi Araki, and the characters are quite traditional and ordinary when viewed alone, but when combined with the abuse plot, it is very unbelievable and difficult for the audience to look at directly, on the contrary, in the works of Toshio Saeki and Nobuyoshi Araki, women are displayed as objects, but in these chalk drawings, male students are shown as objects....."
There was also a surrealist painter in France, Camille Clovis Trouille. Both of them have a cult painting style, and although one uses a Catholic background and the other uses a Japanese metaphor for time and space, I always felt that if Mr. Saeki was French, he would have become a painter like him. For example, the exuberant erotic performance, the religious view of original sin thinking, the composition from the perspective of voyeurism, black humor, the worship of women, the unique SM aesthetics, the strong expressiveness of the story, the preference for the horror and darkness of death, the grafting of surreality and popularity, the longing for retro aesthetics, the dazzling strong colors, etc., I have to say that there are many similarities in the mode of thinking.
That's true. Although these paintings do not have the deep subconscious of surrealism, I think everyone has desires and delusions that they are not aware of in their own consciousness and stick out their tongues. It is only when someone pushes these in front of you that you become aware of your desires. However, fantasy pornography is indeed one of Mr. Saeki's great characteristics. ”
"I'm a kid who is sensitive to ghosts and paranormal phenomena, and I love to listen to my mom tell ghost stories. I was once not taken to the movies because I had a cold, so I asked what kind of movie I was watching. Ordinary parents would never tell their children about that kind of thing, but my mother, who is very good at telling ghost stories, just said something like "the severed head rolls around, and the blood is dripping" or something like ......that."
