When I came back from Hangzhou that day, Master Huang called and asked him to pick up the carved Pixiu. Lin Ci smiled very satisfied when he saw the lifelike and ferocious Pixiu. He thanked the master and paid by credit card. , and went out with the box containing Pixiu!

When passing by an antique shop, Lin Ci inadvertently saw a brocade box of agarwood inlaid with hidden flowers in the window, it was very elegant, so he walked into the shop and asked the shopkeeper, the price was quite reasonable.

I told the shopkeeper that I wanted to put a few brushes, and the waiter girl put a bunch of dried purple flowers in the brocade box, and told him that many people give pens like this, just put the brushes inside and tie them together.

Lin Ci always felt that it was weird to let the flowers go down. After all, the person he was going to send was a big man, and then he asked the waiter girl if he could just get a cushion and a layer of dark flannelette. The waiter girl thought what we have Cushion, you want to put a writing brush, so this cushion has to be custom-made!Seeing that a big order was about to turn yellow, the little girl grabbed the writing brushes that the boss usually kept in the shop for practice, inserted several brushes in the bunch of dried flowers, and then showed Lin Ci the brocade box.

Inside the simple and elegant agarwood box is a bunch of small purple dried flowers, and there are several brushes of different sizes in the middle of the flowers, which is very good.

The service girl was afraid that Lin Ci wouldn't buy it, so she kept saying to the side: "This purple flower is a baby's breath, and the flower language of this purple baby's breath represents longing, so meaningful, it's the best gift for my girlfriend. "The service girl was quick to talk, and then thought about what to do if she sent a man?Immediately afterwards, he continued: "It is also very suitable to send a man, and friends can also miss it..."

Lin Ci looked at the bouquet of small purple dried flowers, and the corners of his mouth under the sunglasses twitched slightly: "Do you miss me? I like it very much..." Then he whispered a few words of miss...

I seem to miss that person too...

The service girl over there was happily thinking about how much commission she would get for making this order!

Finally paid, and left under the sun in the warm "welcome next time" from the service girl...

After returning home, Lin Ci carefully took out the bought brushes and put them into the bouquet inside the Chenxiang box...

Looking at the writing brushes in the box, Lin Ci took out those Pixiu to look at, then played with a small Pixiu, and walked to the window...

sunset

Lin Ci played with the Pixiu in his hand and thought about the past...

Under the afterglow of the setting sun, he looked at the distant scenery and smiled faintly...

The sun shines on the earth, and the breeze blows the broken hair on Lin Ci's forehead...

Suddenly the finger he was playing with was scratched by Pixiu's fangs, Lin Ci changed his hand to hold Pixiu, and looked at the scratched fingertip, there was a drop of bright red blood on it...

On the other hand, the blood-stained fangs of Pixiu in his other hand flashed red... the blood that was originally there was suddenly sucked in...

Lin Ci came back to his senses and went to the desk to put the Pixiu down, and walked out of the living room to find disinfectant...

He didn't notice the small bloodstains on Pixiu's fangs...

Because that spot of blood is small enough to be ignored...

In the evening, Liu Yun called and asked Lin Ci to go out. Lin Ci sat in the study, playing with a pen in one hand, and answering the phone with the other, with a cold face, but said in an unusually gentle voice: "I have a party tonight and I can't go out. I will accompany you tomorrow night." Bar……"

Over there, Liu Yun complained a little and hung up the phone without daring to say anything...

Lin Ci got up the next day and looked at the clothes in the closet. He took out the blue-gray retro Chinese-style cotton and linen gown and long mandarin jacket that he had bought a long time ago but had never worn.

Just like the ones worn in many TV shows, with high crosses and five buttons on the front. Lin Ci matched a pair of black trousers on her lower body, and combed her bangs with hairspray.Going back to the study room, he took a string of slender small agarwood beads and put them on his neck...

Then take the pair of silver round-frame retro glasses that are rarely worn on the desk and put them on...

That person seems to like the style...

It's the last time...

I want to make the best impression on him...

When going out, Lin Ci was still a little unaccustomed to her own attire...

Driving to the military area of ​​that family, Lin Ci didn't get out of the car, and directly said to the scout guarding the gate to find Li Shengtian. The other party saw that he was Lin Ci, and everyone in the compound said that he had cooperated with the young master of the Li family. I opened a company and let people in without reporting...

Lin Ci went in and drove the car straight to the door of Chu Yu's house!

At the gate, Lin Ci picked up the gift and got off the car. With a cold face, he looked at the two-story building that was the same as the one he had seen many years ago...

The scout at the side saw that someone had come to the door, and he was still a popular celebrity in S City, so he immediately stepped forward and asked the other party who he was looking for.

Lin Ci looked at the scout in front of him, and the past rushed back...

This scout is called Chen Yong. When he was hospitalized in his previous life, Chu Yu had been guarding him all the time. Chen Yong was often the one who delivered food and soup. Sometimes when Chu Yu went to the toilet, he would secretly stuff red envelopes for himself, full of money. The brawny man blushed only to say that you will get better, and there was no further sentence!

It's just that I was already dying at that time, and I didn't have any extra thoughts to pay attention to this brawny scout, but now I see him again after a lifetime, and I feel infinite emotion...

A smile appeared on the cold face: "I'm looking for Chu Yu, and you just say that someone came to see him with a pen..."

Chen Yong didn't know what chicken-spacing pens were, and he had never heard of them before, but due to the identity of the other party, he still walked into the lobby on the first floor, where the old man, the old man, and the young master were all there, as if they were discussing something, everyone stopped talking, looked Looking at Liu Yong, Liu Yong said: "Someone outside came to the young master and said he brought a chicken, what kind of pen..." The 1.8-meter-long man scratched his head embarrassedly, blaming himself for not remembering what pen.

Over there, Chu Yu stood up and asked loudly, "Chicken pen?!"

Chu Yu didn't notice his gaffe, and his grandfather and father didn't pay attention to his gaffe either.

Because the old man of the Chu family and Chu Yu's father, Chu Gu, also turned their heads and stared at Li Yong with wide eyes, Li Yong wiped off the sweat that was missing from his forehead, swallowed and said, "The other party is talking about the chicken-spacing pen that the young master said... ..."

Before Li Yong finished speaking, Chu Yu was already walking towards the gate quickly!

Walking out of the door, I saw the young man in the afterglow of the morning sun wearing a long robe and round-frame glasses, with all his hair brushed up...

Chaoyang puts a layer of faint gold on the young man...

A gust of wind blew by, and the corners of the boy's robe fluttered with the wind...

Noticing Chu Yu's eyes, Lin Ci smiled at him...

Chu Yu slowed down...

And Chu Yu under the sun is also wearing a retro and improved blue-gray Pankou Tang suit, with five buttons on the front...the hair is also combed up...there is also a small string of Buddhist beads around the neck...

The two looked at each other through time and space...

Lin Ci smiled lightly...

the last time……

After this time, we owe each other...

Lin Ci was thinking...

While sitting in the living room, Lin Ci opened the brocade box and saw the writing brush inside. Even Mr. Chu couldn't hold back his airs. He picked up a pen with a trembling old hand like a dry branch, and looked at it carefully. That round and short speckled brush...

This spot is "Xiangfei Bamboo"!But still dare not draw conclusions!Then I personally called my old friend, a well-known expert in antique appreciation. When the other party heard that Chu’s hometown had five chicken-spacing pens, he smiled wryly after being excited. There was none in the whole country. The one I have is still a replica, and there are five in your hometown. This probability is unscientific when you think about it...

But due to the identity of the other party, the old expert didn't say anything, and it was worthwhile to decide to sell favors to Mr. Chu for a visit!

Consultant Chu asked how Lin Ci got these pens. Lin Ci said that he was traveling in Hangzhou and heard that there was an old house selling antiques. He found these pens by accident and invited them back. It's true to say...

The old expert arrived soon. When he entered the door, he was stunned when he saw the Pixiu and brushes on the table. The more trembling his hands were, the old expert Lao Xu sat on the sofa in a daze after watching.

Elder Chu asked anxiously, "How is Lao Xu?"

Lao Xu looked at Chu Lao and said tremblingly, "It's all true... since it's all true!"

Chu Lao and Chu Gu looked at each other, so excited that they couldn't help themselves!If it weren't for the presence of the juniors, one might be so excited!

Chu Yu sat on the side and stared at Lin Ci, frowning more and more...

Lin Ci smiled and looked at Chu Yu...

And what is this chicken distance pen?

During the Jin and Tang Dynasties, the most prosperous period of calligraphy, the ancients used the ancient brushes and chicken-spacing brushes. After the turmoil of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, Wang Xizhi, the calligraphy god brush that has been passed down from generation to generation, has been lost...

Calligraphy has plummeted since then...

In the Jin and Tang Dynasties, the ancients sat on the ground. In the Song and Yuan Dynasties, high tables and chairs were already a symbol of the status of scholar-bureaucrats, and chicken-spacing brushes had begun to be abandoned by people.

In particular, the turning point of calligraphy came from Huang Tingjian. He advocated holding the brush upright, instead of holding it sideways at a fixed point like the ancient brush-holding method in the Jin and Tang Dynasties, and vigorously promoted Wuxin Sanzhuo, which is the brush used by modern people!

It's just that this Wuxin Sanzhuo doesn't have any technical content, it's just a pinch of hair inserted into the barrel of a pen!

And the production process of this chicken distance pen is quite complicated. I don’t know how many skilled craftsmen have improved the chicken distance pen according to people’s needs in the thousands of years!

The nib of the Shan Jiju pen is divided into four parts: the pen core, the pen post, the auxiliary pen, and the bedding pen.

Its production process is quite complicated. When Lin Ci became a soul floating in the air in his previous life, he saw that Chu Yu wanted to find someone to make such a pen, but failed...

Because the chicken distance pen is the crystallization of the wisdom of many generations... Is it something you can make when you want to do it?Even if it is imitated, the effect is still not comparable to that of the real chicken distance pen, the difference is too far!

Among so many chicken-separated brushes, only Zhuge's chicken-separated brushes are the best. In the Song Dynasty, Ye Mengde recorded in "Stone Forest Summer Records": "The pen cover came from Xuanzhou, and since the Tang Dynasty, only Zhuge's surname has been passed down from generation to generation. Industry. Before Zhiping and Jiayou, Zhuge was considered a treasure by the author."

What this means is that Zhuge’s family has been making pens since the Tang Dynasty. By the Song Dynasty, there were very few such pens. As long as they got one such pen, people would treat it as a treasure, play it like a treasure, and would not be willing to use it!

And Song Mei Yaochen wrote in the poem "Wanling Ji·Ciyun Yongshu Tries Zhuge Gao's Bi Opera Book": "Zhuge Gao's brushwork is the best in China!"

And Su Shi, a great talent in the sky, is especially fond of the Zhuge brushes of Xuancheng's family. Whenever someone gives him a Zhuge brush, he will think it is a great joy!

And the four beauties that Su Shi considered, the four most beautiful things in the world, included the Zhuge pen!

What are the four beauties that Su Dacai thinks?They are: Beiyuan Tea, Neiku Liquor, Jiaofang Music, and Zhuge Pen.

What is this Beiyuan tea?During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, there was a small country in Fujian called Min State, where their tribute tea was said to be very good.In the Northern Song Dynasty, the tribute was called Longtuan Fengbing Tea, which was said to be rewarded to Ouyang Xiu by the emperor.A big man like Ouyang Xiu, after getting it, invite everyone to come over, saying that the emperor rewarded me with a dragon and phoenix cake tea this time, which is very precious, and after coming here, everyone is here to taste the tea?No, just take out this small bag and let everyone take a look, it’s fine if you don’t want to drink it!It is such a precious thing!

So what is this Neku wine?It was Zhou Shizong at that time, at their Lao Chai’s house, when they were in Pohezhong, Li Shouzheng got a craftsman in Pohezhong, and brought him to Bianliang, which is now Kaifeng. The most important thing is fine wine, which is also specially used by the imperial court!

And Zhao Kuangyin snatched the land of the Song Dynasty from Lao Chai's house!

This Jiaofang music, Li Yu has a song "Broken": the most hasty resignation from the temple day, the Jiaofang still plays a farewell song.

There is a mention of Jiaofang music, which is played in the court, which is an elegant art, and this Jiaofang music has been around since the Tang Dynasty, specializing in composing and choreographing, and it has been passed down like this for hundreds of years!

Comparing folk pen-making with these, you can see its value!

If you ask a person who knows calligraphy how the calligraphy of the Song Dynasty ranks, he will definitely come to him with his mouth open, and it must be: Su Huang Mi Cai!

Su is Su Shi, Huang is Huang Tingjian, Mi is Mi Fu, and Cai is Cai Jing!

And the only chicken distance pen left so far is in Shosoin, Japan!The one in the Anhui Provincial Museum of China is still a replica!

China has not discovered or unearthed a chicken distance pen so far!

And this Jiju pen is a magical pen that many calligraphers and calligraphy lovers have dreamed of!

Chu Yu kept staring at Lin Ci. Influenced by his grandfather and father, he loved calligraphy since he was a child. Of course he knew how precious these pens are!Looking at the majestic Pixiu carved from the glass jadeite on the table, I thought about that piece of violet jadeite with eggplant and blue!And the dense colored porcelain placed in my room!So sullenly, he grabbed Lin Ci who was still smiling, and walked to the study next door, slamming the door with a "bang", ignoring the people behind him who were still discussing pens, locked the door behind him, and pushed Lin Ci against the wall He lowered his head and asked fiercely, "What on earth do you want to do?!"

Lin Ci raised her head and looked into Chu Yu's eyes, it's so good, it's been a long time since she looked at this person so closely...

Maybe this is the last time...

After watching for a long time, Chu Yu's beautiful brows were slightly frowned, Lin Ci smiled and turned his head to look at the scenery outside the window, and said lightly: "Maybe you don't remember...but I do remember...you have kindness to me... I'm just repaying you...you accept these gifts..." Pausing, watching a gust of wind blowing outside the window, leaves falling one by one, and said in a low voice with dry throat: "From now on, we will not owe each other... To pester you again..."

Chu Yu grabbed Lin Ci's chin, lifted it up and turned to himself, and said viciously, "Why don't I know that I am indebted to you?!"

Lin Ci smiled painfully, the retro round-frame glasses slipped down to the nostrils, and holding Chu Yu's hand, he lifted his neck and said with difficulty: "As long as I remember... Anyway, we will have nothing to do in the future... You don't It's okay to remember!"

Chu Yu shook Lin Ci's face away, Lin Ci's face turned to one side, raised his head, pushed the glasses on his nose, smiled and said nothing, rubbed his pinched and numb chin with a cold face!

Chu Yu punched the wall angrily!
