Chapter 20: Life and Death: Tao Ran Pavilion

"If you don't know, maybe you will know in the future." Yan Zi said calmly: "I know a little bit about Chinese medicine, and I will look at the qi." ”

"Do you still know Chinese medicine?" The old horse was even more surprised.

This made Yan Zixiu think of his feeling of worry-free at the beginning, and he was a little funny: "Just started learning." ”

"So good at just starting out? Can you teach me? "Lao Ma is also a person who loves to learn.

"Absolutely. However, the Wangqi method is more demanding, and the Wangsha method is easier to learn. Do you know the classic book of Chinese medicine "The Yellow Emperor's Neijing", which is divided into "Lingshu" and "Suwen". The sixty-fourth chapter of "Lingshu" is called Yin and Yang Twenty-five People. You can take a look at this one first. Appearance, complexion, voice, movements, common diseases, and psychological characteristics are described. Of course, from ancient times to the present, there will be many changes and developments, and we will talk about the details later. ”

"Okay, okay." Lao Ma is very happy and feels that even if he can't learn to look at qi, he can learn to look at color, which will be of great help to his work and life.

When they arrived at the testing center, the two of them learned that carrots, sweet potatoes, Shuiling pears, nootropic tea, and Ningshenxiang belonged to different categories, and the focus of testing was also different. Some focus on epidemic prevention, fearing that there will be pests and diseases, and some need to detect pesticide residues and heavy metal content. Since you don't know much about it, you can do what you want. Of course, Yan Zixiu was extremely confident in Xianfu products, so he didn't care.

When submitting the sample, Yan Zixiu prepared two copies. The staff who received the samples was a young girl, who looked a little peppery, and when she saw that it was two copies, she waved her hand and said, "Not so much, one is enough, take it away." ”

Yan Zixiu put the other one aside and was not in a hurry to put it in the box.

Little Pepper frowned when she saw it, and registered there the same: one carrot, one sweet potato, one Shui Ling pear, one nootropic tea, one Ning Shenxiang, huh? Where does the fragrance come from? Pepper sniffed it and thought it smelled very good. I sniffed it carefully and found that it mainly came from Shuiling pear, nootropic tea and Ningshen incense. She couldn't help but take a closer breath, only to feel relaxed and relaxed. This, this...... Her mind was racing, this smelled so good, do you want another one? But what if you refused so bluntly just now, what if people don't give it? I was a little entangled and embarrassed for a while. The face was slightly red.

Yan Zixiu immediately handed over the other copy: "Let's hand over two copies to ensure that the samples are enough." ”

Little Pepper hurriedly took it: "Okay, you guys are very thoughtful." Let's make two copies, and we'll test it as quickly as possible and give you the report. Come and see it tomorrow morning. ”

Lao Ma breathed a sigh of relief and kept thanking Little Pepper. Of course, the sooner you get the test report, the better. An extra day of stay costs an extra day. Moreover, there are only a few days left before the Autumn Canton Fair, so it cannot be delayed.

When I came out of the testing center, it was already 12 o'clock in the afternoon. The two went to the neighborhood to eat and booked a hotel room, and Lao Ma brought a few Ning Shen incense, saying that there was something to do, so that Yan Zixiu could do it at will.

Yan Zixiu bought a map when he left the Beijing Railway Station. At this time, he looked at the nearby scenic spot and found that Taoranting Park was not far away, so he was ready to go shopping. His main source of happiness now is to study, to help others, and to see the scenery. As for the joy of cultivating talents in the world that Mencius said, he felt that it was not yet time, and he was still growing. There is the joy of beautiful scenery and the joy of learning in the fairy mansion, but the joy of helping others has to be in reality.

Taoran Pavilion is one of the four famous pavilions in China. In the 34th year of the Kangxi reign of the Qing Dynasty (1695 AD), Langzhong Jiangzao, who was the supervisor of the kiln factory at that time, created this pavilion in the mercy nunnery, and took the poet Bai Juyi of the Tang Dynasty "to be more mature in the Juhuang family, and the prince was drunk and intoxicated", and the title of the pavilion was called "Tao Ran". This is also where the name of the park comes from. The black plaque on the pavilion is the word left by Mr. Qi Baishi, the plaque of the golden "Tao Ran" in the pavilion is written by Jiang Zao, the person who built the pavilion, and the following "seems to hear Tao Ling to open three paths, come to share a niche with Mituo" is the couplet left by Lin Zexu.

Yan Zixiu came in through the south gate. I saw the Taoranting Park of the autumn high and refreshing, the sky is blue, the clouds are white, the weeping willows are everywhere, the green shade is heavy, the ginkgo biloba is abundant, the fallen leaves are golden, there are residual lotus on the lake surface, the breeze ripples, the pavilions are uneven, the pavilions are covered, it is really worthy of a famous garden.

He stayed in the Mercy Nunnery for a while, and after watching the annotations, he learned that the Mercy Nunnery was the predecessor of Tao Ran Pavilion. There is a Guanyin Hall in the Mercy Nunnery, which is dedicated to the three saints of the West, which are Amitabha Buddha, Guanyin Bodhisattva and Dashi Zhi Bodhisattva; There is also the Zhun Ti Temple, which is opposite to the Guanyin Temple. While visiting the temple, he asked Wuwu: "Compassion hermitage, mercy hermitage, what is mercy?" What is sorrow? ”

"You are healthy and happy, and you want other people to be healthy and happy, this is compassion. You see that the villagers are tired from farm work, and you want to help them relieve their burden, and you cry out for sadness. After a pause, Carefree said meaningfully, "Helping people resolve the pain of joys and sorrows is also compassion." ”

I see, how nice it would be if everyone had compassion. But the distortion of human nature does exist in reality. Some people are not happy when they see others happy; When you see others in pain, you feel happy. ”

"Have you forgotten the meaning of emptiness? Everything can be changed. Every saint has an unbearable past; Every sinner also has a bright future. The creation and existence of the Immortal Mansion is to promote these changes. ”

"You're right." Yan Zixiu clenched his fists, and his belief became firmer.

As he spoke, he walked across the Xiehu Bridge and turned left towards Zhijin Pavilion. There are very few tourists in this area, and there are two people in the Zhijin Pavilion. A little girl of thirteen or fourteen years old sat there, staring blankly at the clouds in the sky. An old lady with gray hair stood next to the little girl, trying to touch her head for a while, and then walking around again.

Yan Zixiu walked closer and saw more clearly. I saw that the old man was over 70 years old, wearing a blue handmade coat, pants with leggings, looped legs, a pair of small feet, and he was thin and thin.

The old man would try to touch the little girl's head, and then rub his heart.

The little girl just stared blankly at the clouds in the sky.

Helping others solve their worries has almost become Yan Zixiu's instinct. So he couldn't help but stop and watch. While watching, the old man looked up at Yan Zixiu, a little surprised: "Can you see me?" ”

"Why can't I see you?" Yan Zixiu blurted out.

The little girl turned her head, with big eyes, looking a little puzzled, not knowing who Yan Zixiu was talking to.

"She... They can't see me, no one can see me, they can't hear me. The old man's tone was helpless, and he seemed to have some expectations.

"Auntie, I can see you." Yan Zixiu understood a little in his heart.

"You, who are you talking to?" The little girl's voice trembled slightly, not knowing if it was fear or what.

Yan Zixiu said softly to the little girl, "I'm talking to an old lady. She was about sixty or seventy years old, skinny, and wore a blue handmade coat. Well, she said her surname was Song. Who is she? ”

"It's my grandma. Grandmother! Grandmother! Why can't I see you? The little girl looked around and cried. The old man wanted to coax her, but he couldn't touch her, he looked anxious, and he didn't know what to do.

"Auntie, don't worry. Little girl, don't cry yet. I'll find a way for you to meet grandma, okay? ”

The little girl took Yan Zixiu's hand and cried, "Uncle, please, please." I want to see grandma, I miss her. See once, see once. ”

The old man's tears also flowed: "Young man, I beg you too. My granddaughter is so pathetic. I'm almost stupid to think about it. ”

Yan Zixiu hurriedly said: "Okay, I'll find a way." ”

At this time, a message came from the worry-free transmission, Yan Zixiu thought for a while, took out a jade pendant from his pocket, and handed it to the old man: "Auntie, you take this jade pendant, and your granddaughter will see you in a while." ”

The little girl felt as if the jade pendant was handed to the air.

The jade pendant is about two inches, exuding a golden light, and it looks very warm and reassuring.

The old man was a little surprised, and a little expectant, he took the jade pendant with both hands. I saw that the golden light was even brighter. I just feel as if I have come from a lonely and desolate wasteland to the south of the Yangtze River where the grass grows and the warbler flies, and everything has become so warm and vibrant. Her sorrowful countenance widened, and her eyes brightened.

The little girl saw her grandmother's figure gradually appearing in the golden light, from vague to transparent, from transparent to translucent, and slowly began to solidify. She went from being surprised and scared at first, to being joyful and excited. As soon as Grandma's figure stabilized, she suddenly pounced on her and hugged her grandmother: "Grandma! Grandmother! Grandma also hugged the little girl: "Vivi! VVI! O my poor child! ”
