Chapter 21 twentieth beautiful stone

Some time ago, Junior Brother Jie Ao met a new friend Wang Shizhu.Wang Shizhu is a lover of literature, according to Junior Brother Jieao, Wang Shizhu's poems, prose and short stories are all well written. Of course, judging from Wang Benefactor's appearance, we can't tell that Wang Benefactor has any literati temperament. On the contrary, his strong figure makes him look like an athlete. Benefactor Wang moved to the town from other places about half a year ago. From Jie Chen's impression, he doesn't seem to have any specific work, because every time he sees him, he is either wandering around the town, or doing some exercise.

For a while, Jie Chen was also very curious about Wang Benefactor, he didn't know how he was so leisurely, but he didn't seem to be very old, definitely not the kind of person who had reached the retirement age.Later, Junior Brother Jie Ao said that Donor Wang is investing in collectibles, which is a relatively free profession. Wang benefactor also often appears in Tianming Temple, and will also take out his own works to communicate with Jiechen.But Jiechen was very ashamed, because he couldn't make any suggestions.In fact, I have tried my best to quit anger. Although Wang Benefactor's words are beautiful, but the life circle of Jiechen is too small, and his knowledge is limited, so it is difficult to understand the connotation of some words.For example, Jie Chen remembered a sentence in Wang Shizhu's article that Jie Ao praised as beautiful and artistic, which roughly meant "my hair is blowing in the sea breeze".It is difficult for Jie Chen to feel the content of this sentence, because Jie Chen knows what it feels like to be blown by the wind in the mountains, but the wind by the sea has never blown, and even if the sea breeze blows, Jie Chen has nothing to float around Is the hair right?

Fortunately, Junior Brother Jieao has a relatively strong comprehension ability, and has a special perception of this kind of incomprehensible artistic conception, which did not disappoint Wang Benefactor too much. He felt that Junior Brother Jieao's judgment on literary works was quite professional, and the given Evaluations are often to the point. When the weather is comfortable, Lord Wang will come to the temple as a guest.He often pulls Junior Brother Jieao, sits under the big tree in the backyard, drinks tea and chats, and brings some small gifts to Junior Brother Jieao, sometimes a few books, sometimes pens and ink, and once Give Junior Brother Jie Ao a nice little stone.

Of course, although the responsibility of discussing scriptures and Taoism with Wang benefactor was fulfilled by Junior Brother Jie Ao alone, his gift was shared by Jie Chen and others.Those few books belonged to Jie Chen, and the pen and ink was taken away by Jie Chen, who loves to paint, and the little stone was taken by Jie Chi to play with. In fact, that small stone was the first that Jie Chen took a fancy to. It was a light yellow stone, and some faint colored patterns could be vaguely seen on the stone.Under the sunlight, the surface of the stone will feel very smooth, and the color of the stone surface is very soft.Jie An had never seen such a stone in the local area, and suspected that Wang benefactor picked it up when he was out of town.

But for this stone, Junior Brother Jie Chi obviously discovered other uses for it.He often plays the game of throwing stones with junior brother Jie Chen, the game method is also very simple, that is, draw a circle with chalk, and then throw the stones from a distance, whoever throws it correctly wins.Junior Brother Jie Chi said that he felt that this stone had spiritual energy, because since he used it to compete with Junior Brother Jie Chen, his success rate has increased. Jie Chen didn't think this stone had any aura, but he felt that Junior Brother Jie Chi's throwing stones were not accurate enough, and he often used insufficient strength habitually. However, this stone was relatively smooth and received less resistance in the air, which happened to make up for Jie Chi's throwing stones. The shortcomings of the idiot junior brother.If this stone was given to Jiechen, it is estimated that the accuracy rate would drop instead.

Although there is not much communication with Wang benefactor, Jie Chen has a very good impression of Wang benefactor.Donor Wang usually speaks very politely and politely, and acts very prudently.According to Jie Chen's observation, Wang Benefactor only lost his composure once, that time he was halfway through chatting with Junior Brother Jie Ao, and suddenly his face became ugly, and he left after a while. That incident has always made Jie Chen feel very strange. It is not likely that Master Wang encountered any unexpected incident that day, because usually there are signs of such a situation, such as receiving a phone call or someone coming to inform him, but that day Jie Chen Chen was always nearby, Wang's phone never rang, and no one came to him.

Junior Brother Jie Ao was also worried about whether Wang benefactor had some disease that caused his physical discomfort, but after inquiring from the side, he found that Wang benefactor was in very good health and had no symptoms. The one who solved this mystery was Jie Chen’s director friend Qu Shizhu. When Qu Shizhu was a guest in the temple, he accidentally saw the stone in the hands of Jie Chi’s brother. Qu Shizhu said that this is a very expensive stone. How could it be in Jie Chi's hands? Jie Chen and Jie Ao were very surprised when they heard it. Later, Benefactor Qu found a picture of a similar stone from the Internet and showed Jie Chen and Jie Ao. The height of the stones is similar, and looking at the price, I was really shocked.In the end, Junior Brother Jie Ao found out the small box that Wang benefactor gave him the stone back then. Inside was a small certificate with the same name as the one seen on the Internet.

When he picked up the stone again, Jie An found that his cultivation level was still quite poor, at least too far from the state where eminent monks regard money as dung, because Jie An's hands were shaking. Jie Chen recalled the abnormality of Wang benefactor that day, and suddenly remembered that Junior Brother Jie Chi was playing a stone-throwing game with Jie Chen next to Wang benefactor.Jie Chen instantly understood the reason for Wang Benefactor's pale complexion. It must be that Wang Benefactor felt uncomfortable seeing his sky-high priced stones being thrown around on the ground.Although Benefactor Wang's body is strong and strong, every time Junior Brother Jie Chi threw a stone, it hit the softest part of Benefactor Wang's heart, and it was really hard for Benefactor Wang to resist.

Junior Brother Jie Ao also admitted that he made a mistake, because Wang benefactor gave most of the small things before, and he never expected that he would give such an expensive gift. Later, Junior Brother Jie Ao found a piece of flannelette and wrapped that stone, intending to return it to benefactor Wang when he came again.It's just that Jie An found that Junior Brother Jie Ao's cultivation level is not very high, he is the same as Jie An, he is careful, lest he touches the stone. Speaking of it, this is also a very interesting phenomenon.In fact, whether we can be calm when dealing with certain things does not entirely depend on the importance or value of the event, but the most fundamental thing is our attitude towards things.

It's like when we don't know the value of a stone, we can watch it rolling around on the ground with a smile on our faces, but when we find that the stone is expensive, we can't see it being damaged a little bit.From the beginning to the end, the stone has not changed, the only thing that has changed is the way we look at it. We live in a society, and we feel that the inner pressure is increasing all the time, but is it true that the surrounding environment has become more dangerous?The root of troubles is actually because we take too many things too seriously, and we use locks to lock up our inner happiness, our inner calmness and ease.

One day, when we really know how to abandon unnecessary values ​​and take things that can be taken lightly, the casual and freehand life will return.
