It is a kind of wine vessel in ancient times.

It was very popular in the Shang and Zhou dynasties, and in the Book of Songs, there was "I will take care of them." ”

This crystal is imitated in the Shang and Zhou bronzes in terms of shape and ornamentation, without the heaviness of bronzes, but it is better than its very special crystal material, colorless and transparent, smooth and pure, and beautifully carved.

The crystal seems to be simple and unworked, but it is fine everywhere, the overall shape is like a two-horned beast head, the cover is carved with a two-horned beast head, and the handle is carved into a kui style, and the shape is unique.

Of course, the old man's greeting gift has a deep meaning.

What is "兕"?

"兕" refers to a kind of ancient beast that looks like a rhinoceros.

The most famous of the "兕" is Taishang Laojun's mount, the Banjiao Green Ox.

"Examination of the Work Record: Letter People" said that Jia Jiashou was 200 years old. The world will be prosperous, and the world will come out.

What is "Kui"?

Kui is also a strange beast in ancient legends, and the dragon pattern on the bronze is often called Kui pattern and Kui dragon pattern.

The "Classic of Mountains and Seas" says that it "will be stormy when it enters and exits the water, its light is like the sun and the moon, and its sound is like thunder." The Yellow Emperor got it, with its skin as a drum, and the peg (jué) with the bones of the thunder beast, heard for 500 miles, and threatened the world. ”

Dery.

Bowey.

Longqing.

Huaijie.

Chang Xian held the crystal in his hand, and his hands trembled slightly.

This is a heavy weapon, it is expectation, sustenance, blessing, and inheritance.

The autumn wind squeezed in from outside the door, originally soft, but suddenly became violent, the old wooden door was slammed against the wall, and the cold wind carried the fresh air of the grass and trees to blow the white hair and eyebrows of the two old men.

"The wind is blowing, and it is raining. Brother Jinyu, go back. ”

The old man lifted his eyebrows, which were covering his eyes, and pulled out a piece of paper from the corner of the ground: "Child, you just buy books according to this book list and come back tomorrow morning." ”

Chang Xian respectfully took the book list, glanced at it roughly, couldn't help but gasp, and decided that the first thing he would do when he went back was to throw away the collected magazines on the shelves.

The book list is densely written:

……

The next day, after eating breakfast, I drove my hair and came to the deserted garden.

It is close to the Mid-Autumn Festival, although there is still a little bit of heat left, but the temperature difference between morning and evening begins to widen, and I hear the footsteps of Chang Xian, and there are two dog barks, which are stretched and drifting away in the lonely morning breeze.

An old man who doesn't know his age, doesn't want to be served, and only lives here with a local dog who doesn't know his age.

It seems to be an endless distance from this earthly world.

The old man had no name, or rather forgot his name.

Dogs have names.

The nameless old man and the named dog sat on the white marble board of the gazebo, watching the morning sun fall on the deserted garden, and covering themselves little by little.

Chang Xian took a few steps and said respectfully, "Master! ”

He touched the head of the earth dog again and said, "Xiaoman! ”

This earth dog was adopted by the old man on the day of Xiaoman, hence the name Xiaoman.

The small full one is full but not damaged, full but not surplus, full but not overflowing.

Two people and a dog, walking slowly in the wilderness.

"My apprentice, you don't need to take care of my food and daily life, and you don't have those moths. Apprentices are not used for this, if you want someone to serve, just find a servant mother-in-law. ”

The old man said frankly and solemnly: "It's ridiculous to say, I have never accepted apprentices in my life, and I have never thought of accepting apprentices, so my teachings are definitely very different from others. ”

Seeing Chang Xian nodding solemnly, he continued: "There are no rules, there is no circle, I have the most important rules in my life, do you know Su Qiyuan?" I'm also counted as a Su Qi piece. ”

Su Qiyuan is a celebrity in Jinmen, and Chang Xian has heard of it.

Judging from the old man's solemn writing of the "human affection post", he said that he was Su Qiyuan, which can really be regarded as accurate positioning.

Su Qiyuan's real name is Su Jinsan, and he is the most famous orthopedic doctor in Tianjin during the Republic of China.

People have the ability to have all kinds of tempers.

Doctor Su has a variety of rules, whoever comes to see the disease, whether rich or poor, must first take seven silver dollars and put it on the table, and then he will not see the disease, otherwise he will never care.

People scolded him for recognizing money and not recognizing people, and his ability was worth seven yuan, so he got a degraded nickname called Su Qiyuan.

called him Dr. Su to his face, and called him Su Qiyuan behind his back, and later he didn't even know that his big name Su Jinsan was gone.

Su Qiyuan is good to play cards, one day idle, two card friends to play, three missing one, so the dentist Dr. Hua not far from the north of the street was invited to get together on a table.

was having fun, when suddenly the tricycle driver Zhang Si broke in, leaned on the door, supported his left elbow with his right hand, his head was sweaty, and the gown around his neck was wet, obviously breaking his arm, and it hurt enough.

But the tricycle driver earns a day and eats a day, how can he get seven silver dollars?

He said that he owed Dr. Su first, and then he was allowed to pay it back, and he still hummed and screamed pain when he spoke.

Who expected Dr. Su to listen to the game did not listen to the general, still touch the cards to look at the cards, count the cards and play cards, or happy or sad or surprised or pretended not to be surprised, the brain is all on the card table.

A player couldn't look at it, so that his finger pointed out of the door, Dr. Su's eyes still did not leave the card, and the nickname "Su Qiyuan" was categorical.

Dr. Hua, a dentist, was known for his kindness, he said to pee, left the card table and walked to the backyard, got out of the back door, went around to the front street, and quietly beckoned Zhang Si, who was leaning against the door, from a distance, and took out seven silver dollars in his arms and gave it to him.

Without waiting for Zhang Si to be grateful, he turned around and returned the same way, entered the house and sat back at the card table, and continued to play cards as if nothing had happened.

After a while, Zhang Si staggered into the room and put seven silver dollars on the platform with a "bang".

This is faster than ringing the bell, Dr. Su is already standing in front of Zhang Si, rolling up his sleeves, putting Zhang Si's arm on the table, pinching the bones a few times, pulling left and right with his hand, pressing up and down, Zhang Si pulled his shoulders and neck, closed his eyes and bared his teeth, ready to take a few hits, but Dr. Su said, "It's connected." ”

immediately applied ointment, clamped a splint, and gave Zhang Si a few packets of oral medicine to invigorate blood and relieve pain.

Zhang Si said that he had no money to pay for the medicine, and Dr. Su only said, "I will send this medicine", and returned to the table.

After the game was dispersed, when he went out, Dr. Su stretched out his hand to stop Dr. Hua, and after the two players left, he took out seven pieces of silver dollars in front of his seat and put them in the palm of Dr. Hua's hand.

Dr. Hua said in astonishment: "There is a sentence that I have to tell you." Don't think that I'm not good-hearted, but I can't change the rules I have set! ”
