Chapter 22 Act 22.0

The two of them went to bed very early at night, and Long Su tossed and turned on the hard wooden bed for a long time, unable to fall asleep, with all kinds of strange thoughts in his head, and he didn't want to get up to look for a book to read.After tossing and tossing for nearly an hour, he suddenly heard the door next door, Jianzi didn't sleep for some reason, walked out of the room and stood in the patio.

In the middle of the night when the dark clouds cleared, Jianzi's back was cut into a thin wicker and fell on the dusty window.Through the glass, he could vaguely see him putting his hands on the incense burner, looking down with his head down, looking for something.Then it stopped moving, as if it had merged with the quiet surroundings and became a part of this silent temple.

Staring at his blurred figure, Long Su finally lost all sleepiness.

"looking at what?"

Jianzi was not surprised by Long Su's appearance.It seems that from the moment he made up his mind to bring him to Shuiyun Temple, he would no longer be surprised by the depth of this person's involvement in his life - he didn't go deep into what was behind the indulgent feelings, Jianzi just hummed, Beckoning him to come over.

Long Su walked up to Jianzi, and was pulled closer to the incense burner by Jianzi.The latter pointed to the inside of the incense burner: "Look here, can you see what is written?"

The two were very close, and it was the first time that Long Su noticed that Jianzi's back neck was very long, like a section of clean white porcelain vase, the collar of the shirt was casually erected around, and the lines of the shoulders were faintly visible... After just one glance, he immediately twisted his neck. Too much, before something unexpected happens, it's better to fully focus on the incense burner.A closer look really aroused a little interest: there was a little dark gold on the inner edge of the jet-black incense burner, and when I knocked it twice with my hand, the sound was clear and clear, and it turned out to be a pure copper incense burner.Its value is not lower than that of Emperor Ziwei, whose clay sculptures and paintings in the main hall are not even covered with gold. In this simple Taoist temple, it can be regarded as a luxurious configuration.

Lines of beautiful running script were engraved on the blackened inner side. Long Su couldn't help but lower his body, and read the first line of the inscription under the moonlight for a long time.

"Isn't it pleasurable to learn from time to time...this is..."The Analects of Confucius"?"

In the incense burner of the Taoist temple is engraved with the saying that it is really a stew pot with sheep's head and dog meat. When Long Su looked up in amazement, Jianzi looked like a child who had successfully shared a prank, with a sly smile on his snow-white eyebrows and eyes: "Well, it is " The Analects of Confucius. This incense burner was originally in the Confucian Temple in the town. In the Qing Dynasty, a Jiang Xiucai came out of this place. He retired and returned to his hometown and built the temple. It has been around for a long time. During the Cultural Revolution, the four old temples were smashed up. I want to take it I went to smelt steel, because I couldn’t move it, I put it in the temple and waited for a car from the county to pull it, but one morning when people saw it, they found that the incense burner had disappeared.”

An incense burner made of refined copper would cost a hundred catties at least, and even a few people wouldn't want to move it. Long Su couldn't help but ask, "Has it been moved?"

"No, it was moved away by the 'Land Lord'." The answer was very serious.

With a flick of his eyebrows, Long Su suddenly realized, Jianzi said in a proud tone that all children who are proud of their parents in the world have: "This man is my master, he was 19 years old."

Long Su straightened his body, leaned on the incense burner with great interest, and began to listen to the story about the incense burner.The boy who was born as a mason groped into the dilapidated temple for several nights, dismantled the stone slab under the incense burner little by little, and hollowed out the soil under the stone slab, until the last night he tried his best to push the incense burner into the pit, and the burial was flawless. For 30 years, no one knows its whereabouts.This story can't be considered very moving, neither complicated turning point nor intense emotion, not even thrilling enough.The man who told it had a smile on his lips, and it seemed more like a funny prank than an anecdote.

"Then why is it here again?"

"Because many years later, when Master returned to Gu Town, he found that Shuiyun Temple had been dilapidated for a long time, so he came here to become a Taoist priest on a sudden whim. At that time, the Taoist temple didn't even have an incense burner. He brought it up at the original site. He said, no matter if it is Confucianism or Taoism, those who don’t need money will return to my house.” Jianzi’s answer was calm, and Long Su was choked up—it turns out that this is a fake Taoist priest There is also a tradition of ups and downs.As for Jianzi's master, it is indeed a bit of a legend: self-taught changed the life of a mason, graduated from a prestigious school with a wealth of five cars, and was also a person who has gone through storms, but returned to his hometown alone without a wife and children, and was very comfortable as a teacher. A Taoist priest.

Then one day... the old Taoist priest picked up a very small child outside the door. The father and father spent the second half of their lives and the first half of their lives together, and caused small ripples in the lives of others.

"...encounters are often ordinary at the time, but they are always horrifying when you think about it later." The Confucian scholar said it was somewhat inappropriate, but Jianzi rarely agreed: "It makes sense, and I can prove it the day I went to the UI interview."

Arguing lightly, Long Su didn't want to change the subject, and suddenly asked, "Where is your master buried?"

"Behind the mountain," Jianzi answered casually, then looked at him in surprise: "Do you want to go?"

"Since you're here, you'll be safe. I've been bothering you a lot here, so why don't you pay your respects to your old master?"

Looking closely at his composure for a long time, Jianzi felt Shulou Longsu's unique thoughtfulness for the first time - no politeness, no pretense of pity, easy to say words that suit his personal temperament, but with a real prudence .He didn't know why Long Su respected his master, but he felt the warmth that warmed his chest.

Leading Long Su to the master's grave with one foot deep and one foot shallow, Jianzi inexplicably remembered some things when he was picked up a long time ago.

...Human memory is really wonderful. Master always thought that he didn't remember being thrown at the gate of the temple, and he had been living in a daze all the time, taking "Mr. Polaris sent you here to be a Taoist priest" as the truth.Until one time, Master brought him a few precious white rabbit milk candies, and as soon as the sweet, milk-flavored candies melted in his mouth, he suddenly remembered everything.

He remembered that his mother put on a piece of clean clothes left by his fourth brother that day, and stuffed a piece of white rabbit toffee in his pocket. .He was very happy, so even if his father took him out before dawn, he never cried.Dad carried him on the mountain road for more than ten miles to Shuiyun Temple, put him at the door, and told him to sit here obediently and don't go away.Jianzi nodded vigorously, watched his father's back disappear into the other side of the mountain, took out the piece of toffee, and licked it cherishingly—it was so sweet—so he sat like that, from morning to noon, taking a piece of toffee I licked nothing left, even licked the candy wrappers several times, and finally burst into tears from hunger.

The Taoist priest who was lying in the patio reading a book heard the cry of the child, so he hurried out to find someone, reported him to the temple, and fed him a bowl of thick rice soup.A week after that, the Taoist priest traveled all over the country, but he still couldn't find the parents of the child.

Later, he lived in Guanli, and the Taoist priest became his master.

Later, Jianzi didn't eat any toffee.

"...Is this here?" The breath blowing from his ear startled him, and he realized that he had already lowered his head, his face remained unchanged, as if this rare distraction was normal, Jian Zi nodded slightly.

There are no trees in this valley, and the eyes are full of graves, large and small, some are mounds and some are built of bricks. Weeds are everywhere at the foot of the tombs, and they sway when the wind blows. Most of the light is covered by the front mountain. It looks like a messy graveyard, and the timid people might want to run away immediately.Long Su, who proposed to come to worship the grave in the middle of the night, was very comfortable, with a face of "silence, strange power and confusion", looking around very leisurely, if you shake the fan, maybe you can even sing two words to Jing Sheng This is a doggerel - it shows that the toughness of the nerves is as good as the skin.

Turning left and right in the graveyard, Jianzi stopped in front of a tomb made of blue bricks.

Although the tomb is not big and there are not many weeds, Long Su guessed that it was because someone came to clean it from time to time.Jianzi didn't speak, and first pulled out the newly sprouted grass seeds one by one, then brushed off the dust on the tombstone, and finally squatted in front of the tombstone, peeling off the soil from the writing in the cracks of the stone with his hands little by little.Long Su didn't speak, let alone help, just stood there quietly watching him clean up the small grave mound with a serious face.

In the case of poor lighting, it was really hard to see whether it was clean or not. Jian Zi looked around, feeling that it was not good enough, and then realized that there was really nothing to do, so he slowly stood up.Long Su finally opened his mouth: "You came back to visit Master's grave?"

Jianzi's hand was still on the tombstone, and he hummed with his back to him: "Master passed away in mid-October of my freshman year, and I will come back every year at this time. Although... the old man may not want me to do this , " After a pause, Jianzi seemed to smile: "Ha, Master has lived a free and easy life all his life, so it's really unworthy of me to be so hypocritical."

His voice was as pleasant and brisk as usual, but Long Su was stunned.

Jianzi once said, "Living on the road is my life." Looking at his back as usual, Long Su realized for the first time that this sentence was true.

A passer-by in the world, a hundred generations of rebellious journeys, wandering around, alone...then.meet.

Then, love... When the feeling can be replaced by a single word, it suddenly becomes alive, bouncing in my heart and wanting to rush out in one breath.The strong heart palpitations made the veteran such as Long Su unable to restrain himself. He forgot all the steps of the previous plan, but he had an intuition that he had to reach out and grab something, right here and now.

Shulou Longsu never suppressed himself, so he simply grabbed the man in front of him and turned to face him, ignoring Jianzi's surprised expression, and said in a straight voice: "Jianzi, stay with me. "

Before the obedient person understood the situation, in the blurry darkness a few steps away, his friend and boss suddenly spoke, his voice was always calm, but the content was earth-shattering.

"Jianzi, stay with me."

Abandoning Ruyin repeated it again, in the faint light, Jianzi felt that Long Su's eyes were so clear that it made people tremble.In the next second, his arm hurt, and his whole body was pulled forward by a strong force. Long Su grabbed his jaw, and then... something touched his lips, and an incredible numbness spread all over his body, mixed with The shame of unknown fear made Jianzi's scalp tingle, and he reflexively tried to push the opponent away with a cloud hand. Long Su bent his elbow, stepped back two steps in advance, and said, "You heard me right, I mean it."

It wasn't until Jianzi finally realized what he had just heard and what happened, and found a suitable solution from his barren life experience, that he discovered that the culprit, Shulou Longsu, after molesting him...he didn't even look back gone!

…Jianzi Xianji, 28 years old this year, feels for the first time that he is only one step away from the crime of hurting himself…

That night, Jianzi, who always fell asleep as soon as he touched his pillow, tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. A wall separated him from the proud Master Longsu, who had a very peaceful night's dream until dawn.The next day the sun was so high that Jianzi got up in a daze with panda eyes on his face. What greeted him was a large table of food enough to last three days, and Longsu who packed his bags and was ready to go down the mountain.

Looking at the delicious food in front of him, and looking at Long Su, who had his travel bag on the side of the chair, Jianzi frowned, and was about to speak, but was blocked by the former: "My friend, don't open your mouth, it seems that I am a genius!" For the sake of being busy now, you can save yourself the nonsense of pretending to be stupid."

After his agitation, Jianzi, whose mind was still in a muddled state, returned to normal. He sat down opposite Long Su as if nothing had happened. He picked up the bowl and started eating with a calm face. Pretending not to hear.

Long Su's golden eyes flickered, and the dimples on his lips were more intoxicating than ever: "The company has an urgent matter and I have to go back. My friend has worked hard for several months. You might as well stay for two more weeks and have a good rest."

Hearing the sound from a good friend, he was very troubled. If he heard the boss take the initiative to take a holiday in normal times, Jianzi might immediately take out the map and start planning where to go. Now...seeing his face change several times, but he still didn't speak, Long Su Finally heaved a sigh of relief, smiled slightly, and started to move his chopsticks.

The two ate this luxurious breakfast in eerie silence, and when they were cleaning up, they happened to meet Taoist Chen coming to "work". The latter rushed to help, but Jianzi immediately gave way.During their daily conversation, Long Su said goodbye to the two handsomely with the bag on his back, then turned gorgeously and went down the mountain.

With outsiders in front of him, Jianzi couldn't say anything, so he waved his hand to say goodbye as usual. "Goodbye" means "see you again", Long Su's figure disappeared from sight, and he felt his head hurting.

Knowing each other that he and Long Su's level is good or bad, they both know that the so-called "emergency" is just an excuse, and Long Su has made up his mind to retreat.But just like that, Jianzi felt so troublesome that he had a migraine—a person who has always been aggressive and never gives in is willing to take the initiative to step back and give others space. He must have a long-term plan of resistance and will not give up easily—that is to say :

That sentence was not a dream last night, nor was it a joke, but... serious.

To be with...he...

Seriously.

The wonderful feeling from the short touch last night appeared on the lips, Jianzi rubbed his temples, and sighed deeply.

Long Su on the other side was much calmer: Last night's confession not only confused Jianzi, but also disrupted his own plan, but now that the chessboard has been laid out, there is no room for regret, and then Come down... just wait for the opponent's response.

Slowly descending from Shuiyun Temple back to Guzhen, found a very decent-looking private car and went straight to the airport comfortably, and got on the first-class cabin of the nearest ordinary plane... In less than six hours, Shulou Longsu passed away. The mountain savages have returned to the bustling metropolis.As soon as I got off the plane, the surging crowd forced attention to all kinds of hustle and bustle, and my eyes were full of relics of the civilized world. Facing the place where I grew up and lived for more than 20 years, I couldn't adapt for a moment.

In the mountains, there are thousands of years in the world in one day, but just disappearing from the whole world for one day, I fell in love with the carefree tranquility.

Maybe, he's just in love with someone who can make him feel that way.

That's why I left, and I started to miss it like this.

After standing at the ticket gate and pondering for a long time, Long Su finally gave up the idea of ​​booking a ticket to go back.A short passionate kiss last night made him almost lose control. If he didn't turn around and leave immediately, there is no guarantee what will happen. It is definitely not a good idea to continue to stay with Jianzi in a Taoist temple with only two people.The most troublesome thing is that the group on the mountain discovered that Jianzi can also fight martial arts, and his kung fu does not seem to be too bad... Thinking of the angle and strength of Jianzi's cloud hand, Shulou Longsu, who wants to be windy and rainy, also began to fight. feel troubled...

In the following week, the head manager of Xianfeng was relieved to find that the lazy boss had returned to his nature: showing up at the company for more than four hours a day was considered extremely hardworking, but most of the time he couldn't see the beginning and the end, so he didn't know what he was busy with.What surprised her was that after almost ten days like this, Long Su actually started to go to work at ten o'clock in the morning and leave work at six o'clock in the afternoon, causing panic among the company's senior management.

"General Manager, the dynamic boss Zhou Qi is calling and wants to meet you." Pushing open the door, she saw Long Su staring at the computer seriously. The secretary's butler's instinct still kept her from overstepping the rules and interfering with the master's private affairs.

"Zhou Qi?" The name is familiar but the impression is unfamiliar. Long Su thought for a few seconds, a round and chubby face flashed in his mind, and finally remembered that the local tax bureau invited big taxpayers to dinner at the beginning of the year, and it seemed that he was sitting next to him at the IT table. This is the person.Closing the notebook, turning the swivel chair half a circle to face Mu Xianfeng, Long Su asked, "What's the matter with him?"

"It seems that there is a project that wants to invite you to invest. This is the information sent by fax."

During the day's pleasantries, it seemed that they could cooperate in the future, but the two of them never communicated again, and Long Su completely forgot about it.He adjusted his long eyebrows slightly, took the information and flipped through it noncommittally, and soon he gave a slight snort, with interest in his golden eyes.Long Su's ability to read and generalize is extremely strong, and he absorbed the contents of the materials in a minute. With a smile on his lips, he put the materials back on the table very carefully.Looking at his expression, Mu Xianfeng already guessed that he attached great importance to this project.Surprised in her heart, she also read the fax, which contained an introduction to the portal website for young users very concisely.It is rare for the boss to show some approval for a PPT full of eighty or ninety pages of data. Just three pages can arouse Long Su's interest, which really makes people curious about the mystery.

"Do you want to make an appointment with him?" Mu Xianfeng asked tentatively.

Long Su shook his head: "Not for now, you call Tong Wen, I need him to collect some information."

Tong Wen Jianru, as a legal consultant and a master of economic management, is Long Su's right-hand man. The legal counsel department under his name is the department with the highest salary in UI company. It is not only responsible for legal affairs, but also responsible for investigating and sorting out Long Su. Information that the host cares about.Asked why the boss's decision was a must for a secretary, Mu Xianfeng nodded and opened the door to go out, but was stopped by Long Su again: "Feng'er——"

She stopped in the middle of the conversation, and Mu Xianfeng looked at Long Su in a daze, listening to something in a daze, and then a very lethal smile appeared on her face - as if a big deal had been negotiated, or as if It's someone who has successfully calculated, or it's like... purely happy for someone.

"It's nothing." After smiling like that for a while, Long Su remembered her, and continued the next sentence: "Go and do your work, don't close the door."

... The boss has been a bit confusing lately. Mu Xianfeng walked away suspiciously, wondering why the company was so noisy today.

Long Su got up, made a cup of tea and put it across from him, then sat back again. A few minutes later, someone knocked on the open door with a bag of things: "Delicious chestnut cake, a special product in the country, is on sale in our company, do you want to come?" several?"

The smile involuntarily deepened, and Long Su pointed to the chair in front of him: "My friend, seeing you again seems like a lifetime ago. I made tea for you, do you want to come and drink?"

"Why not?" Jianzi readily agreed, closing the door behind his back and looking back at him with straight and clear eyes.
