Bastards

Words are powerful.

In one sentence, many hidden meanings can be derived, such as good, bad, positive, and ironic. With different expressions and voices, the other party's feelings are also very different.

A smile is the most kind and warm expression.

Even if the other party can't see it.

What Cui Yu said was very straightforward, but he knew that Guan San would not misinterpret it, and would understand the kindness underlying the straightforward words.

Sure enough, Guan San was startled, and a smile slowly spread from the corners of his lips: "My whole body stinks of copper, yet you can still be praised by Mr. for being so fresh and refined..." He bowed his hands very politely, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Cui .”

Cui Yu also bowed: "It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Guan."

The two of them brushed off their clothes and sat down.

The terrain in the mountains is clear and strange, and there are strange rocks from time to time. It is big but has a slow face. Facing the sun and the mountain wind, it is slightly warmed by the sun, and it is also very clean. You can spread a layer of cloth casually, and the comfort is comparable to a good chair.

Cui Yu looked at Guan San.

This man was tall and thin, and his facial features were not exquisite, but he had a tough guy temperament, sharp eyebrows, and a tough temperament. Even the bottom of his eyes were empty, showing a bit of ruthlessness, and he was extremely masculine.

Cui Yu has seen many businessmen, most of them smile when they see people, and their faces look extremely kind. There are very few people with a strong temperament like Guan San.

Guan San still couldn't see it.

Most people with physical disabilities will feel inferior. When they feel inferior, their backs will not be straight and their backs will not be straight, and they will appear a little weak.The person in front of him, not to mention weak, the vigor of the whole body, few people can match.

How strong is this person?

"What happened a few days ago was a lot of trouble. I haven't come to thank you yet. Brother Guan, don't mind."

Cui Yu was referring to the Rouge Lane incident.

He and Yang Xuan used Guan San as a game to catch the king of Yue. Although they got along well with Guan San, they did not reveal the details of the details. Therefore, Guan San was still willing to help, which shows his trust in them.

In comparison, for another reason, they are also slightly smaller.

Guan San has a sharp mind, and he knew what he was talking about as soon as he heard it: "I just inspected the industry on a routine basis. Unfortunately, I encountered a small disturbance, and I still stood far away. It didn't affect or cause any loss. The word 'trouble' , where do you start? Mister is too serious."

He smiled softly, and said: "Your office has taken care of my business for many years, and I have helped you a lot in water transportation. I can't repay you, but I hope you can use it. From time to time, I ask you to do some things."

Cui Yu likes to talk to such smart people.

No matter whether you know it or not, and how much you have guessed, people have a good sense of propriety, they don't make others feel uncomfortable, and they don't talk nonsense. This level three is really a talent.

Cui Yu became interested in talking: "How is the business doing well recently? I heard that brother Guan has acquired several large shipments of seafood, making a lot of money and making others jealous."

"A small business, it's not very good, it's just a novelty. But after all, it's something outside, and some people have never seen it in the local area. I will give some to my husband to play with..."

The chatterbox was opened.

Guan San talked about a lot of overseas experience.Cui Yu's soul comes from modern times, and his vision is extraordinary. When he said some words, Guan San was amazed.

If his eyes could see, it must be shining now.

At the end of the chat, Guan San and Cui Yu mentioned one thing, food prices.

This year's grain price fluctuations are slightly higher than in previous years, which seems a little unusual, but the degree is very small, and it is uncertain at the moment. He will continue to pay attention to it in the future, and ask Cui Yu to tell the leader of Sha San that the water transportation will be a little tighter.

Are you prepared?

Cui Mata agreed.

Guan San's business is spread all over Da'an, and he is the most sensitive to the prices of various things. There is nothing wrong with being careful. They pay attention to it, and it doesn't take much manpower.

Guan San faced the direction of the sun: "Mr. is sitting here, but the view ahead is pretty good?"

"It's really good." Cui Yu described the beautiful scenery in front of him, "The sky is open, there are white clouds roaming, the warm sun is like orange, and the fine light leaks in with the forest, the light and shadow are mottled, and the soil is refreshing. Take a few more glances, people will My state of mind has become much clearer."

When Cui Yu spoke, Guan San tilted his head slightly, gently stroking the bamboo stick with his hand, and listened very carefully, as if he was following Cui Yu's words, while drawing the scene in his mind at the same time.

After savoring for a moment, he sighed slowly: "In the past, I loved the sunrise the most, and felt that it brought vitality to the day, and I was full of vitality at a glance, but now, I feel that everything I have seen before has unique beauty. "

He seemed to realize that he had said something that others would not respond to, so he smiled, and before Cui Yu spoke, he said again: "Actually, it's good that I can't see it. Now I can hear very well, and my sense of smell is also very good. I have some feelings. It is something I have never experienced when my eyes are good..."

He lowered his head slightly, stroking the bamboo stick with his slender knuckles, as if he had a deep affection for the bamboo stick.

Cui Yu suddenly felt that this person... felt very contradictory.

He has a strong aura, a strong mind, smart and capable, but he is the most despised businessman in this society. He has never thought of developing in other directions, and it is not obvious that he is dissatisfied with his achievements.

He is very sharp, but his speech is very gentle, and there is even a special softness in the movement of stroking the bamboo stick.

This man must have a story.

Cui Yu's gaze landed on Guan San's waist unexpectedly, and saw a Pisces jade pendant.

Jade is a good jade, warm and moist to the eye, with a light blue light, but the carving...is very ordinary.The proportion of the head of the fish is slightly larger, much wider than the body, and the tail is slightly smaller. The two fish heads touch each other and the tails touch. It can be seen that the carver wants to carve a perfect circle, but because the hand is slightly raw, the circle Into a fat heart shape.

The jade pendant is not exquisite, but it is also simple and cute, with a bit of spirituality.

But regardless of whether it is cute or not, isn't it a bit inappropriate for such an object to be worn on the very rich Guan San God of Wealth?

Cui Yu was a little curious, but didn't ask. Seeing that the time was almost up, he offered an invitation: "It's getting late, Brother Guan, would you like to go with me?"

Guan San stood up, smiled and said, "Naturally."

The two went to the main hall of the temple together.

The place where they rested was not too far away, and there was no one on the road at the moment, and they walked extremely fast. Guan San was a wealthy businessman, and he had been checked in advance. He took a special passage, and he walked straight to the front of the hall without any hindrance.

Cui Mata was so smug that he didn't even use his own preparations.

Just at this time, Emperor Taikang arrived with his concubines and princes.

When the whip sounded, everyone knelt down.

Cui Yu and Guan San sat slightly to the side, kneeling down after them, very inconspicuous.

Unremarkable but inconspicuous, their vision is very good, and the distance is close enough to clearly hear Taikang Emperor's smiling voice and the voice of the common people.

Cui Mata quietly looked at this group of royals.

Everyone's demeanor is different.

For example, King Yue, with big strides, seems to be very calm and confident, with a smile on his lips, but his eyes are gloomy, with dissatisfaction written on the corners of his eyes and brows, he doesn't even look at King Chang, and his head is raised very high.

For example, King Chang, maybe his body is not as good as before, and his mind is also sinking. Now people like to lower their heads a little and look at the whites of their eyes.The king of Yue didn't look at him, but he looked at the king a lot, because the king of Yue always got in his way by "a mistake".

For example, Prince Ping, Xu still had some thoughts in the past, but since Yang Xuan returned to the court and gradually gained power, he has become more transparent. He can't even hear a name inside or outside the court.I don't know whether it's resignation or holding back some big ideas, anyway, at this moment, he is the most obedient, without squinting, walking slowly in a straight line, as if everything in the outside world has nothing to do with him, he can't see this lively event at all Can't hear.

For example, Tian Guifei.Because there are things in his heart, he feels a little perfunctory about everything in front of him, and his smile can't reach the bottom of his eyes, and his eyes are wandering, revealing a sense of exploration and caution.

The one who is the most comfortable and energetic will understand Yang Xuan.

As the crown prince, Yang Xuan stood beside Emperor Taikang, his appearance was Huang Huang, and he was very majestic.He also intentionally exuded his princely aura... According to Cui Yu, it was a bit pretentious.

In this family, the only one with a truly relaxed expression was Emperor Taikang.

He doesn't know anything, so naturally he doesn't guard against anything, doesn't care, it's really a blessing that he is fooled by the emperor.

Cui Mata laughed heartily.

"Your majesty... go a little further in..."

Concubine Tian Gui plays the role of the most powerful concubine at any time, and she always has a sense of presence. Seeing that Emperor Taikang is too far away, she quietly reminds her.

Emperor Taikang leaned in, looking at Concubine Tian Gui with approval and tenderness.

Concubine Tian Gui lowered her head shyly.

Guan San frowned slightly, and his expression paused for a moment.

This voice...why did I feel like I heard it before?

Since he lost his eyesight, his hearing and sense of smell have gradually become different from before. They are very sensitive. In many cases, as long as he has heard the sound, he will not forget it.

This female voice sounds soft and has a unique rhythm. He seems to have heard it before, but in his consciousness, there is no such thing as "as if" at all. He has heard it before, and he has never heard it.

Why is there such an illusion?

Cui Yu noticed that Guan San's expression was wrong, and lightly touched his arm: "What's wrong? But what's wrong?"

Guan San regained consciousness and shook his head: "No, the voice was too noisy for a while, and I was taken aback. Don't worry, sir."

Seeing that he was fine, Cui Yu didn't ask any more questions.

When Emperor Taikang walked by with the imperial concubine and the prince, and the people dispersed to find their own places, Guan San and Cui Yu bid farewell: "There are still things down below, I have to look after them, please stay with me."

Cui Yu was only on the same path as Guan San, even if Guan San didn't say goodbye, he would say goodbye.Therefore, there is no one who understands the degree of propriety in this level.

"Brother Guan, please—"

"Sir please—"

Guan San walked a long way, and his frown did not disappear.His thoughts were too scattered, he didn't concentrate, and his feet followed suit. He followed the crowd fast and sometimes slow.

……

Abu Keer was very excited to participate in this lively event, and he didn't feel too uncomfortable, so he squeezed straight into the crowd.

Squeezing and squeezing, suddenly the shoulder rubbed against a person.

Strange and familiar height, a faint, seemingly absent pine and cypress fragrance.

Her eyes widened suddenly, and she immediately looked back: "Ah San!"

It's a pity that the flow of people is too dense, there is only one reaction, one time to turn around, no matter whether she or the person who just rubbed shoulders, they have already gone far away with the flow of people.

Abu Keer pursed her lips tightly, and began to squeeze back hard...

It's difficult, but she's not afraid!

The one just now must be Ah San!This time, she must find him and never let him escape!

Outside the crowd, Cui Ying looked at Abu Keer struggling to squeeze in the crowd, her hair was messed up, and she was so distressed that she lifted her skirt and was about to go in——

Yang Zhao stopped her: "There are so many people, once they go in, they won't be able to get out!"

"But Ke'er..."

"She knows martial arts, she can't be squeezed!"

Cui Ying: ...

Seeing that his fiancée's expression was wrong, Yang Zhao immediately hesitated, scratched his head, and said cautiously: "Then we are here, can't we see more clearly? She is willing to play in it, so let's let her play enough first, she is not willing Playing, beckoning, I'll go over and pick her up..."

Cui Ying sighed lightly.

Getting along these days, she knows Abu Keer's obsession best, those beautiful and bitter pasts, and she also hopes to have a good ending.

Abu Keer is a good girl and deserves the best.

……

Accompanied by monks, Emperor Taikang and his party entered the hall.

After simply entertaining for a while, after talking about the process, the monks left, and only the royals were left in the hall.

Concubine Tian Gui held the pot in her bare hands, and continued to serve tea to Emperor Taikang: "It is a blessing for all princes to meet Master Huizhi this time under the honor of the Emperor."

Master Huizhi is an eminent monk in Tianze Temple. He spends most of the year in retreat and studies Buddhism. He doesn't have much time to see guests every year. Naturally, he is very particular about guests.Except for Emperor Taikang, Master Huizhi has to be willing and has a predestined relationship to see each other, otherwise... no matter who it is, even the prince, they will not be able to see each other.

At this ceremony, Emperor Taikang came to appreciate his face, and everyone in Tianze Temple was very happy, so he asked Master Huizhi to meet the princes, and the master agreed.

In any case, it is still the face of Emperor Taikang, the king of a country, that is to be seen.

Emperor Taikang was very proud. Now that Tian Guifei mentioned it, he waved his sleeves a little reservedly: "It's nothing, are they my sons? Later, when the master is free, I will take them there myself."

Concubine Tian Guifei had an 'envious' expression on her face, and praised Emperor Taikang greatly, she could say all kinds of compliments, and the flattery was loud.

At the end, she sighed slightly: "The concubine is not so lucky to see the master. I heard that the backyard of the temple is very beautiful. It is rare for the concubine to come here. I just want to go and have a look, but I am afraid that the emperor will come out and there will be no one to serve me. It's really hard to get down..."

Emperor Taikang liked Tian Guifei's sensible appearance the most.

I was envious of others being able to see the master, and I didn't want to follow him in a sensible way. In order to relieve the depression in my heart, I wanted to go out for a walk.Wanting to go out for a walk, but worried that no one will take care of him, this careful person, with such a wink, why don't you let him pamper you?

Emperor Taikang said proudly at the moment: "Go and play by yourself, just remember the time for the ceremony and come back. There are so many people around me, and how few people are waiting for you? It's rare for you to come out, let's enjoy the scenery today!"

Concubine Tian looked at Emperor Taikang with lingering eyes, bowed quietly and saluted: "My concubine, thank you for your kindness..."

The two sides separated, Concubine Tian Gui led the maids and maids, and followed the guidance of the monks, walked out of the courtyard.

When the scene was good, Concubine Tian Gui said she wanted to be quiet, and dismissed the monks and most of the court ladies, leaving only Nanny Gui and her confidantes.

After confirming that there is no one around and it is very safe, Concubine Tian Gui narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, and her aura became serious: "Is everything ready?"

Nanny Gui tied her hands and replied: "Everything has gone according to plan, Madam, don't worry."

Tian Guifei squinted her eyes at the osmanthus tree for a long time, and finally hummed: "Tell me to watch the timing, don't be too early or too late."

"Slaves save it."

……

On the other side, Emperor Taikang took his sons and waited for Master Huizhi to send a message so that they could meet each other in the past.

No one expected that Cui Yu was the first person to meet Master Huizhi.

It was a complete accident that Cui Yu met Master Huizhi.

There was a big scene today, and there was a big picture. Cui Yu was involved in it, but because of his identity, he couldn't stand with Yang Xuan, and could only watch from afar.He didn't want to join in the fun, and it was still early, so after asking if everything was normal, he turned around in a remote place in the temple.

It is not without reason that Tianze Temple has a great reputation. The towering ancient trees, the long-standing hall, and many things all reveal the vicissitudes of time.For a moment, Cui Mata admired the childishness, and walked farther and farther with the wood Tong, and walked further and further away, until he came to a stupa.

The stupa is pure white, divided into three parts: the tower base, the tower body, and the tower brake.I don't know how long the years have passed, the reliefs on the tower body have suffered a lot of wear and tear, but the white color is still the same as before, very beautiful and heartbreaking.

Cui Yu was admiring the pagoda, and Mu Tong reminded him softly, "Master, someone is here."

Cui Mata raised his eyebrows: "Is it not safe?"

Mu Tong shook his head: "It should be just an accident."

There was only one person coming, and he had no martial arts, or his martial arts were so low that he couldn't even notice it, so even if he encountered it, it shouldn't be dangerous.

Cui Yu understood what Mu Tong meant, so he smiled and continued to admire the pagoda patterns.

The person who came was a monk of a certain age, wearing a sea green with wide waist and wide sleeves, round collar and square lapel. The style was wide and fat, and the color of the clothes was bright yellow. He could tell at a glance that he was of extraordinary status, and he would have to chant and listen to scriptures later.

The monk is quite old, older than Emperor Taikang, and the corners of his eyes are quite wrinkled, but his face is elegant and peaceful, his eyes seem to be shining with wisdom, and his temperament is much more comfortable than that of Emperor Taikang.

The monk was very surprised to see Cui Yu, but the surprise only lasted for a moment, then subsided, and his eyes were peaceful: "Amitabha——"

He only sang Buddha and didn't speak. Knowing the other party's doubts, Cui Yu clasped his hands together and saluted, and introduced himself: "I'm here, Cui Yu, enjoy the scenery as you like, and don't want to go further and further away and disturb the master."

The monk looked at him a few times, smiled warmly, and sang the Buddha again: "Meeting is fate, and maybe it is arranged by heaven, so that you and I meet here. Cui Xiaoyou, it's still early, would you like to talk to this poor monk?"

The monk knew him.

As soon as the name was mentioned, I reacted and wanted to talk to myself...

Cui Mata went through the information of Tianze Temple in his mind, and smiled: "Master Huizhi invites you, Cui dare not obey!"

Huizhi clasped his hands together and sang the Buddha, with a more gentle expression: "The benefactor, Zhifeng. Please—"

Cui Mata: "Master, please—"

Compared to the hustle and bustle outside, this place is simply quiet and beautiful.

Cui Yu stepped on the bluestone path on the ground, followed Master Huizhi's footsteps, turned a few turns, and came to a courtyard.

The courtyard gate is small, without lock or bolt, and the inside is very tidy, with a tree, a flower and a stone platform, and nothing else.Walking into the wing room, the decoration is also very simple, and the utensils are all simple and generous, mainly clay pottery and straw weaving.

This courtyard, this wing room, is very consistent with the impression of Master Huizhi, and it must be the place where the master often lives.

It was just a chance encounter, and he was invited to a private site. This master is really casual.

After serving tea, Huizhi sat cross-legged for a few minutes and said: "I heard that the benefactor is good at Taoism and profound arts. The poor monk thought that you and I might not have the chance to meet. Unexpectedly, we will meet in this ceremony."

"Returning to the original nature is the same, and there are many ways to facilitate. All dharmas are unified, everyone has different opportunities and different paths, but the heart to search for the true self is the same. I don't think there is anything wrong with me going to the temple to study Buddhism. "Cui Yu smiled, "Isn't that the same for the master? Among all living beings, they have heard my name, paid attention to me, and even wanted to see me for a long time..."

Huizhi held the beads between his fingers and sang a Buddhist sentence: "What the almsgiver said is true. Virtue is improved according to the amount, and the amount is grown by knowledge. The poor monk is blunt, and he never thought of taking the elders of other families. It is also a heart to be able to see a little bit." Longing for it."

Cui Yu sat down and chatted with the great monk about Buddhism and Taoism.

Naturally, he doesn't know anything about Buddhism and Taoism, but he benefits from what he got in his previous life. He has read a lot of books and knows a lot of fallacies. What the Buddhas say is quite plausible, and he chatted with Huizhi good.

In fact, he was not curious about Hui Zhi, the master, did he have a golden finger, but the master was kind and the invitation was very peaceful, so he couldn't refuse.Now that you're here, don't waste the opportunity. He searched his brains for something to say, just to know more about Huizhi.

Conclusion: As worthy of being a master, every sentence is mixed with Buddha nature, which makes people think.

"The benefactor has clear eyebrows, which is the appearance of great wisdom, and there is a mole between the eyebrows, which is more or less destined to be with the Buddha. However, wisdom is very easy to hurt, the benefactor should remember, don't worry too much..."

Master Huizhi's words are not heavy, but with a unique rhythm, and such a bit of ancient flavor, people can't help but be convinced.

"You and I are practitioners, and it is easy to be damaged by the red dust of the dynasty..."

Cui Yu pondered the meaning of these words, whether they met by chance, Master Huizhi saw something from his face, and that's why he invited him to come over for a talk?

Before I could figure it out, a monk suddenly came over from outside, as if there was something urgent, please Huizhi to come over.

"Let's go for a while, poor monk, please wait a moment for the almsgiver."

Cui Yan clasped his hands together and watched him leave.

I thought that I would be able to wait for Master Huizhi to come back soon, and Master Huizhi must have thought the same way, so he just asked him to wait a moment and did not ask him to leave.But after waiting for a long time, Master Huizhi did not return.

Cui Mata couldn't sit still anymore, went to the table and took the Buddhist scriptures, flipping through them casually.

When Huizhi came back, his face was full of apology. He had been away for too long, and now the time was almost up. He had to prepare for other things, and he could no longer entertain Cui Yu.

"It doesn't matter, there will be opportunities in the future."

Cui Yu was not a stingy person, so he comforted Huizhi and left.

Unexpectedly, when he walked to a corner, his wrist was suddenly grabbed by a big hand stretched out from the horizontal, and he was pulled along the trend, his body fell sideways, and he fell into the bushes——
