Chapter 1: Confusion (1)

Next Chapter

The Buddha said: "Thousands of rivers have water, thousands of rivers and moons, thousands of miles of cloudless and thousands of miles of sky, let go of yourself." ”

"Childe wake up, Childe wake up......" In the grogginess, a woman's delicate voice floated in Liu Tiandong's ears.

However, at noon, two bottles of beer were in his stomach, and at this moment, Liu Tiandong just wanted to fall asleep, how could he care about this sudden sound, because it could only be a hallucination or a .......

"Hey,I guess it's the old man who runs a small supermarket next door and the TV volume is turned on too much.,Hey,People are old.,My ears are back.。 ”

Life comes and goes in the world for decades, but after going through it, who can really understand what the true meaning of life is? Or what is the difference between life and life? Is it the spiritual satisfaction of having a thousand gold scattered and coming back, or the sorrow and grievance of thinking about going to a thousand miles of smoke and waves, or the sorrow and grievance of the twilight and the sky, or the heroic cloud of stretching out your hand when the road is uneven, or the timely pleasure of having wine and getting drunk today? and so on...... What exactly?

After living for nearly 30 years, Liu Tiandong still still hasn't figured it out, and he still can't figure out when he should have been established, is it really because the world is changing too fast today, and he is already outdated? Now he only knows that reality and ideals are fundamentally incompatible with the principles of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and faith written in books, and sometimes even the so-called ambition and ideals are a joke in the end, especially for people like him who once lived in the system.

Maybe it's just because he wasn't tactful enough, and he spoke against his boss, and he was snubbed from then on, just like a concubine who was beaten into the cold palace, she became a sinner who was excluded everywhere, and she would always be burdened with sinners with no guilt, and in the blink of an eye, she became a general plague god that everyone saw and avoided, lest they be implicated. And Liu Tiandong is another type of person who has been in the workplace for nearly ten years, but he has never been able to lose his books and get angry. In this case, "I simply don't serve", so he resigned with resolute momentum, joined the unemployed army, and became an idle person in society

You must know that at his age, and he once had such a so-called enviable career, he chose to resign, and the sensational effect went far beyond the matter itself, and almost everyone, including his family, looked at him with an incredible and incomprehensible look, as if this person had become an anomaly.

"There are so many people who have to get by, but you want to learn from those ancients, but you don't want to bend your waist for five buckets of rice, haven't you stayed in the siege for a long time, and forgot the trembling and sincere fear when thousands of troops and horses crossed the single-plank bridge outside the siege? Hey, you are already an adult, and I am even more inconvenient to say more, so I can do it myself!" In the end, it was the father's helpless sigh that temporarily stopped this restlessness......

Liu Tiandong is not a big man after all, even if he makes such an amazing move, it is just like a moth to a fire, fleeting, everything will soon calm down again, and the people in the besieged city will gradually forget about him......

It's just that life still needs to go on, whether it's a moment of bravery, or being willful, you have to face the reality after being chic, although you may have had no worries about food and clothing before, but now you have cut off your livelihood with your own hands, as a man, you can't let go of the minimum responsibility for your family, in fact, these are not difficult problems for Liu Tiandong, he has a plan early in the morning, thinking about opening a bookstore after he has free time, meeting friends with literature, talking about the past and the present, and drinking tea and Taoism, isn't it happy, but this idea is just an early schedule.

Say and do, without all kinds of scruples, but feel a lot more relaxed, people have become a lot more diligent, the shop, negotiation, decoration, design is all hands-on, I don't feel hard, but very fulfilling.

After that, everything went well, the bookstore opened, and Liu Tiandong naturally became a small boss. The so-called, do not enter the line of the line of the bitterness. It's easy to open a store, but for business, he is a complete layman, his brain is even less bright, and the so-called social experience before is not used, and the books and magazines in the bookstore can't cater to the tastes of people now.

Fortunately, there are still some family backgrounds, and there will be no worries about tea, rice, oil and salt for the time being, anyway, I like to be quiet, and I am at ease at this time. It's just that such days passed day by day, and gradually, Liu Tiandong began to feel bored, however, the road was chosen by himself, and he had to continue to hold on......

"Childe, childe......" Suddenly, the woman's voice rang out again.

"I'm annoyed, can you stop turning on the TV so loudly?" Liu Tiandong complained vaguely, but he still covered his head with his hands and lay on the table. In the scorching summer, it was the afternoon, the scorching sun was on his head, and he was already too drunk to move, so he changed his position and prepared to continue sleeping.

Suddenly, a gentle breeze blew through his ears, making Liu Tiandong feel comfortable at the same time, and the wine also woke up more than half in an instant, not because of this breeze, but because he obviously smelled a faint fragrance in the soft wind. Faint, not the pungent intensity of cheap perfumes. It's secluded, but it's completely refreshing. The point is that the aroma is not far away, it seems to be close at hand, right next to you.

"My God, someone, to be exact, there should be a woman standing next to me at this moment! Isn't there a customer who has entered the bookstore, and he is still a woman, and his embarrassed appearance has been seen by others?" Thinking of this, Liu Tiandong couldn't help but sit up suddenly, opened his eyes that were still a little worried, and vaguely saw that there was really a person and a woman standing beside him, but there seemed to be something wrong, because this woman was dressed very strangely, as if she was dressed in an ancient costume.

"Could it be that the alcohol hasn't woken up yet, and you're hallucinating? But it's just two bottles of beer, it's not enough, right? Or it's a cosplay player......"

So, Liu Tiandong rubbed his eyes vigorously with his numb hands, and looked over again. This time, he was sure that it was not an illusion, it was real, there was a woman in a pale cyan dress standing next to him, with two buns on her head that she had only seen in costume dramas, and a small fan in her hand......

"It can't be a ghost in broad daylight, right?" In a moment of thought, Liu Tiandong staggered to his feet, and couldn't control his body and took a few steps backwards, until his back hit a hard object before he stopped. Under the pain, Lingtai felt a lot clearer, and things in his eyes suddenly became clearer.

It's not just the strangely dressed young woman opposite, but now even the surrounding environment has changed strangely, Liu Tiandong will remember even if he is confused, just now it is clearly in his own bookstore, lying on a wooden table between several rows of bookshelves, why, how is it that he is actually in a small pavilion now, the wooden table has become a stone table, and the wooden chair has become a stone bench. Turning to look around the small pavilion, what the hell is it, where is his own shop, but a small garden, and what he just hit behind is exactly the unicorn beast head carved on the stone pillar in the corner of the small pavilion.

The faint fragrance of flowers wafted into his nose, the sound of cicadas chirping one after another, and a young woman with a peach blossom face opposite, Liu Tiandong was completely unclear about the situation.

"This, what the hell is going on, if it's not a dream, is that something happening to me?"
