There is Zen in this, and there is also the relief and openness after experiencing the ups and downs of life.
In terms of mood, I don't know how many streets the tramp left him.
He really did not expect that any tramp he met in the park would have such a state of mind.
"I suddenly felt that I really should buy you a drink." Xu Shaotang said seriously.
At this moment, he has completely forgotten that this is a tramp in front of him. In his mind, the one sitting opposite him is clearly an eminent monk.
The only difference is that the eminent monk practices in the temple, while this one practices in the world.
From this point of view, he is even better than many eminent monks, because he has broken away from the shackles of the temple, and he will certainly not offer him a drink in front of an eminent monk.
"I'll buy you a drink!"
The tramp laughs and attracts passers-by to look at him, but he doesn't care about other people's eyes at all. He just picks up the half bottle of mineral water he left on the ground and hands it to Xu Shaotang in his surprised eyes.
"You still have wine with you?"
Xu Shaotang was surprised with a smile. He didn't care about the strange eyes of passers-by. He took the bottle of mineral water and opened it, but he didn't smell the smell of wine. He tried to fill his mouth and handed the bottle to the tramp with a smile. "It's water you know!"
The tramp laughed again, took the bottle of mineral water and poured a mouthful of water into his mouth. Then he put out his dirty hand to wipe the water from the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile: "would you like to have another drink?"
"Well..."
Listening to the tramp's words, Xu Shaotang was slightly stunned. After a moment, he silently took the bottle of water from the tramp's hand and poured it into his mouth again. Thoughtfully, he said, "I really feel a bit of wine."
Drinking into the mouth is still a faint taste of water, but associated with this scene, but suddenly feel a bit mellow wine.
Although he knew it was his own illusion, Xu Shaotang was willing to believe it for the time being.
"Right?"
The tramp said with a smile, "do you also think it tastes like wine?"
Xu Shaotang if have of looking at vagrant, quietly say: "mouth have no, in the heart have."
Hearing Xu Shaotang's words, the tramp said with a smile again: "in fact, this is water! At least, I don't have the taste of wine. From this point of view, you are much better than me. "
"Er..."
Xu Shaotang mouth slightly a draw, cheek not from slightly hot, wry smile way: "is I think more?"
"You don't think much."
The tramp smiles and says, "I once heard that there are three realms in life. I think you are the second one."
"What are the three realms of life?" Xu Shaotang looks at him curiously.
"The first is to see mountains and water; the second is to see mountains and water; the third is to see mountains and water."
The tramp said to himself. He just looked at Xu Shaotang from the corner of his eyes. Looking at the thoughtful look on Xu Shaotang's face, he couldn't help smiling. After a moment, he said with a smile: "I think your friend should be coming soon. I should go."
After that, he stood up slowly, glanced at Xu Shaotang who was staying there, and then walked away.
Xu Shaotang savors the words of the tramp carefully and mumbles to himself constantly. At the moment, his thoughts have been completely integrated into the words before the tramp left, so that he didn't even find the tramp's leaving.
"Look at the mountains and the water..."
Xu Shaotang kept repeating this sentence. He couldn't help remembering what Xiao Gelong had said to him some time ago.
Although the two words are completely different, they have the same effect. They both see the most fundamental thing, and they are also the great insight after the flashiness.
Xu Shaotang was stunned. He could not extricate himself from this sentence. Vaguely, he felt that he had caught something, but it quickly crossed his mind. He desperately wanted to catch it, but he just couldn't catch up with it.
People who come and go pass by Xu Shaotang in a hurry. Some of them look at him in surprise, but some of them seem as if he doesn't exist at all. Some of them doubt in their hearts. How can this person be familiar?
For these people, Xu Shaotang can see at the beginning, and gradually, all of them disappear in front of his eyes.
Looking up, it has already become a vast sea.
The tramp in the distance looked back at Xu Shaotang, who was completely lost in thought, with a happy smile on his face.
"You broke the rules again!"
At this time, a faint voice sounded in his ears, but except for him, no one knew where the voice came from, and no one could hear it.
"Yes, so what?" Vagrant shrugged, light said, the language seems to have a bit of provocative taste, but the people around still did not hear him speak."By doing so, you are undoubtedly pulling out the seedlings and encouraging them to grow up!"
Another voice suddenly became a little harsh. I don't know whether it was dissatisfied with his behavior or provoked by his words.
"That's me and him!" The tramp said lightly: "what does it have to do with you?"
"I hope you won't regret it in the future!"
"I never regret it."
There was a trace of scorn in the corner of the tramp's mouth, and he didn't seem to pay attention to the other party's warning at all.
The man who did not appear seemed too lazy to talk to him again. After a slight hum, he fell silent.
The tramp disdained to curl his mouth, and his body moved. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the vast sea of people, as if he had never appeared before.
Qin Qianyu, who arrives at the park, calls Xu Shaotang, but no one answers the phone. Qin Qianyu is worried that Xu Shaotang has been waiting for her for a long time and leaves angrily. At the same time, he trots to search for Xu Shaotang's trace in the park.
Finally, she saw Xu Shaotang sitting there in a corner of the park.
"Brother Xu, I'm sorry I'm late."
Xu Shaotang is still there. Qin Qianyu is finally a little relieved. But Xu Shaotang didn't answer her phone just now. Should he be angry?
Qin Qianyu walked to Xu Shaotang with a feeling of uneasiness. Looking at Xu Shaotang sitting there without saying a word, he was even more uneasy. "Brother Xu, don't be angry, OK? Next time I promise I won't delay... "
However, Xu Shaotang still didn't answer her words, just sat there like an old monk.
"Brother Xu!"
Aware that Xu Shaotang's state is not right, Qin Qianyu suddenly reaches out his hand and shakes Xu Shaotang.
When she shakes, Xu Shaotang loses his balance and falls down from the stone bench. Qin Qianyu wants to hold him, but he has no strength at all.
"Brother Xu!"
Qin Qianyu screamed and his eyes turned red. He hurriedly asked for help from passers-by and took out the phone to call Qin Guozhu.
"Grandfather..."
As soon as he opened his mouth, Qin Qianyu's tears gushed out like a flood.
