Rebirth of an old friend into a dream

What Shi Yinian didn't expect was that the next morning, what Qin Xuan took him to was not the Sun Yat-Sen Mausoleum where the coffin of the father of the nation was buried, nor the Xuanwu Lake with the royal gardens in the south of the Yangtze River, nor the Qixia Mountain with red maple leaves all over the mountains, nor the red wall. The Linggu Temple with Huangwa pines and lush forests is a shop with no guideposts, no gorgeous decorations, only a storefront sign with white letters on a gray background under the shade of trees and green leaves, like a hermit lurking on the side of Guangzhou Road in Gulou District bookstore.

Founded in [-], Pioneer Bookstore is hidden in a corner of this historic ancient capital.It is located in an air-raid shelter, passers-by pass by, if they are in a hurry, it is very easy to pass by.

Qin Xuan told him that it was such an inconspicuous bookstore, but it was named "the most beautiful bookstore in China" by CNN in the United States, and it was also named "one of the top ten most beautiful bookstores in the world" by the BBC in the United Kingdom.

This Pioneer Bookstore opened in Wutai Mountain has a very unique scenery. It has a second-hand bookstore area, a creative product exhibition hall, an art cafe, and a salon activity area.

The two of them stepped into this private academic bookstore with a unique style, and Rodin's thinker statue at the door was unique, like a guide.Looking down, you can see two yellow parking lines on the slope, and looking up, you can see a black cross on the ceiling. There are warm and peaceful reading lights dotted on the snow-white walls at intervals on both sides, and the air is filled with a faint aroma of coffee.

Shi Yinian delightedly touched the notebook with a classic style and a uniquely designed cover displayed on the shelf, and felt a strong desire to write lyrically on it.He turned his head to look at Qin Xuan beside him, and saw that Qin Xuan had chosen for him the two notebooks that he kept his eyes on the most. He was very grateful for his thoughtfulness. He squeezed Qin Xuan's fingers to express his gratitude.

Qin Xuan's deep and slender eyes suddenly lit up a little bit, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and in turn grabbed Shi Yinian's hand, and gently scratched his palm with his fingers.Shi Yinian was ticklish, hurriedly broke free, raised his head and glared at him.

The two chose a few books they liked, and sat side by side on the wooden bench in the bookstore to read them quietly.Shi Yinian concentrated on reading several pages of the book, and when he turned his face to the side, he accidentally found that Qin Xuan was buried in the original English book. He couldn't help but think of the plot where he pretended to be Mr. Q and wrote English emails to himself. Will the two still communicate and exchange ideas by writing emails to each other?

When checking out, they saw the phrase "stranger in the land" behind the counter.Qin Xuan told Shi Yinian that this motto was taken from a poem by the Austrian poet Trakl, implying that the human spirit is always looking for a hometown without a place.

Shi Yinian never knew that Qin Xuan was so knowledgeable, he only knew that Qin Xuan's Chinese test scores at school were not satisfactory, and sometimes he was criticized by the Chinese teacher, thinking that he didn't like studying very much.It turns out that he has been absorbing various cultures in the ocean of knowledge elsewhere.

The railing beside the creative market is covered with a long row of postcards, on which book friends from all over the world wrote eloquently, expressing their thoughts and feelings.A postcard tells a little story, it is very interesting to look at it casually, and you can't help smiling or sad.

There is a young girl who bought a copy of "Greek Zorba" in this bookstore. She wrote it down. She came to this city and soon fell in love with it. She and her ex-boyfriend have broken up for half a year , often thinks of the beauty of the past, she also hopes that she can meet a right person, and believes that fate is not far away...

When Shi Yinian saw this postcard, he couldn't help but think of his bumpy past life. After going through all kinds of hardships, now he finally has the right person standing by his side, which makes his heart heavy and full of joy and joy.Qin Xuan seemed to know what he was thinking, held his hand calmly, leaned forward and said softly, "Why don't we write one too?"

Shi Yinian readily agreed, and also chose a postcard of the scenery of Linggu Temple that he liked, sat down with a pen and began to write.

Qin Xuan stared at his peaceful profile, his eyes gradually deepened, and finally couldn't help but took out his mobile phone to take a picture of him writing a postcard.

Shi Yinian wrote: Seeing you, sitting alone under the bodhi tree, silent, past life, present life, future life, wearing cassock, wisp of Sanskrit singing, farewell for the rest of my life, faintly, everything has begun.

This sentence comes from Cangyang Gyatso's "The Most Beautiful Lover in the World".
