I'm waiting for you in the wind and snow

Chapter 370 Coincidence
Some people always say that Dali is a place that can heal wounds. I don’t object to this statement, because this is a paradise for music, especially in the ancient city. You will always meet street singers on the street, and those who sing in bars There are countless professional singers...

For many people, music is the best cure in this complex world, so it is inevitable to be healed here... Maybe, you will hear a favorite song while walking; at this time, as long as you are willing to do A person with a heart can follow the artistic conception presented in these songs, wade across the river, walk along the tree-lined path, chasing the laughter that only existed in childhood... the most beautiful are those girls described in the lyrics Ladies, there are all kinds of "Lilian", "Miss Dong", "Southern Girl", and "Northern Queen".

Isn't that enough to make you live in fantasy and forget about the painful things that hurt people?
Looking up at Cangshan Mountain and the blue sky and white clouds in the distance, I took out another cigarette from the cigarette case and lit it, and suddenly I didn’t feel like I should eat anything, which was a particularly annoying thing, so, I chose the most free way. When I walked to the seventh snack bar on the left, I would eat whatever it was.

In the end, I stopped at the entrance of a snack bar selling bait, and I was very satisfied with the result, because the opposite of this snack bar is known as the most stylish bar in the ancient city. Even at noon, there are songs in it. , There is wine... And I am the one who can get the best of the opposite. I eat my own bait and watch others drink and sing.

This is probably the most relaxing moment I've ever had.

I really want to share this feeling with the people I care about, but the sad thing is, it seems that I am only accompanied by the shadow of my feet... I am abandoned, and all the pain and happiness are my own One person, neither can share it, nor can anyone bear it together.

At this time, I miss Ye Zhi especially... I don't miss her much, but I always spend all the free time with me.

I sniffed, and then took out the stack of airline tickets she left behind from the document bag I was carrying... That day was the last time I saw her.

I tore my own mouth, how can I say it is the last side? ... Maybe one day in the future, we will meet unexpectedly somewhere... I have to think this way, otherwise everything I insist on now will be meaningless.

……

After lunch, I called Lao Mi to confirm when they would arrive in Dali.

Lao Mi told me that the train is about to arrive in Kunming, and it will follow the bus to Dali in the evening.

After this phone call, I became nervous again. I don't know if I can make a false impression that I am doing well in front of them. The only thing that can give me confidence is the deposit in my bank card. Sometimes, more money and less money is also an important criterion for judging whether a person is living well.

At this time, I remembered that my mother didn't have any decent jewelry, so I bought her a valuable gold bracelet in the gold shop in the ancient city, and bought a big gold ring for Lao Mi.I'm definitely not as good at giving gifts as Ye Zhi, but this is also my heart.

……

In the afternoon, Director Ma and I met again, and I took the initiative to ask him out, because I had a bottle of imported rhinitis medicine that Bailu had asked me to bring to him.In fact, I really wanted to talk to him myself, to talk about my confusion, and to talk about my insights on life; at this time, he has become the most profound friend around me.

In a teahouse with a big banyan tree in front of the door, Director Ma and I sat by the window. He first put down the cloth bag on his body, and then took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat on his head. Life is not like this era at all. people.

I handed him the rhinitis medicine, and then said: "Bai Lu asked me to bring you the rhinitis medicine imported from Japan, which is especially useful for allergic rhinitis."

"No shame."

"The four elements of the monks are all empty, and you are considered to have fallen from the sky. Like the dew, they all come from the grace of nature."

Director Ma looked at me and said, "I really know how to persuade people." Then he shamelessly put the rhinitis medicine into his cloth bag, and then asked me, "How are you doing?"

I asked back: "If I wear gold and silver, do you think I'm doing well?"

"The monks pay attention to practice...so we only look at the inside, not the outside."

"Do you know that there is a kind of person who lives like the outside?"

Director Ma looked at the two boxes containing real gold on my hand, and sighed: "Then you really live the same life, if you think these things like dung can fill the emptiness in your heart, then you It can be regarded as a way to please yourself..."

I laugh... I am also happy to use this kind of joke to have fun with Director Ma. The gold must be real gold, but it is not for my own use.

Director Ma picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then said to me: "Tell you something, our monastery is going to renovate the toilet and replace it with a flush toilet. Now we are looking for donations. Do you think you can...? "

"Can you do something?"

"See it through but not tell it through it."

"You play tricks like this because you want me to subsidize a sum of money to repair your bathroom...Didn't you just say that money is like dung, so what will your bathroom decorated with money do?"

"Hurry up and take back your words. Don't be disrespectful to Buddha. Be careful of karma."

"I'm already like this, how can I repay it?"

Guidance Ma was at a loss for words, and it took him a while to say: "There really is karma in this world, so don't talk nonsense."

"Cheng, Cheng, Cheng, I shut up."

"What do you say about the donation?"

"How much?"

"Our abbot said that those who exceed [-] can write their names on the merit monument...see if you want to go to the merit monument."

I smiled and sighed: "It seems that all living beings are not equal. You have to set a threshold to get on the monument of merit!"

"It's hard to be equal. Buddhas are also divided into big Buddhas and small Buddhas."

I looked at Director Ma, thought for a while, and replied: "In order to let you sit on the toilet, I pay 5000 for this bathroom; but I don't ask for the merit monument, just one condition...tonight, my dad When Mom arrives in Dali, you also go to have a meal together, and meet Ren Bailu by the way... You just took the medicine for rhinitis, so you have to say thank you in person, you really can't take this thing with such peace of mind!"

Director Ma looked at me, and his expression changed immediately. He took out the bottle of rhinitis medicine from his bag, patted it on the table, and then left without saying a word. I didn't mention it again.

Such a small matter, of course, cannot cause a break between us, but it is enough for me to see that his Buddha's heart is not stable in his words and deeds.It stands to reason that monks should have something to say.

……

In the blink of an eye, it was already evening, and Chen Jin and I went to the train station together with him as the driver according to the previous plan.In the process of waiting, another Beetle with a Dali license plate came, which was nothing at first and did not attract my attention, but when the people on the car got off and entered my line of sight, I was really surprised. surprised.

Because the person who got off the car was Lu Jia...

Such a place, such a point in time, makes it hard for me to believe that this is a coincidence, but if it is not a coincidence, then what is the significance of her appearing here?
