The old man's words left everyone speechless, and they quickly changed the topic and chatted about other things.
"Daoist Xugan is really good at speaking. Daoist is worthy of being a Taoist. It's a pity that someone who is more eloquent is coming."
"Isn't that the old man's disciple, what kind of person is more eloquent!"
"Our side is still united. It's not like theirs. Even the sects can't understand it."
Just now everyone was clamoring for the apprentice of the Taoist leader to come out, but now they are fighting against each other and talking about other factions.
It didn't take long for Mr. Sugan to see off the guests under the sweltering sunlight. He left the tea party and returned to the short building next to him.
Inside the room, a mahogany sword was hanging on the side. The young Taoist priest was sitting at the table flipping through a book. He heard the sound of the door being pushed, and looked up to see the old Taoist priest.
Xu Zaiyuan put down the book in his hand and asked, "Master, what is social terror?"
Daoist Xu Gan said warmly: "It is social phobia, which belongs to phobic neurosis, and is too afraid of the external environment."
Xu Zaiyuan: "I never knew I had this disease."
Daoist Xugan: "Then you know now."
"..."
Xu Zaiyuan was silent for a moment, then said again: "Why don't you let me see them?"
Daoist Xu Gan said with a smile: "Good question, do you know why you can't go down the mountain?"
"Sometimes I know, sometimes I don't." Xu Zaiyuan looked at the window next to him, which circled a small sky, and said with lowered eyes, "Occasionally, I feel like a bird in a cage."
Xu Zaiyuan has never met his parents. He has lived in the Taoist temple since he was a child, and even went to school near Ganshan, so he couldn't leave the Taoist temple too far. He didn't notice the difference before, but later he realized that the outside world is very big, and people of the same age will not be stuck in one place at all.
The master and others are very kind to him, he knows that he can't go, but he will also feel bored. He knew that if he entered the world rashly, it might be bad for his future, but he always had yearning in his heart.
"If you jump in Yuan, there is no blame." Daoist Xu Gan sighed, "Your name is Zai Yuan, but there is always a time to jump, it's just that the situation is not right now."
"You will be able to go down the mountain sooner or later, provided you are ready."
In the student union activity room, many students are busy preparing for the whole school's song and dance party. He Shichen and Qi Yan are also checking various materials and finalizing the program for each class.
This is the annoyance of top students. Not only must they have outstanding academic performance, but they must also have organizational and management skills, otherwise they will be called nerds. Their work in the student union is even converted into activity points, which can be written into the graduation file in the end.
Everyone hurriedly shuttled back and forth, but a head poked out of the door.
Qi Yan was the first to discover Chu Qianli, and she instantly smiled, which made He Shichen feel that something was wrong.
He Shichen turned his head and caught a glimpse of Chu Qianli. He simply put down the materials in his hand, walked to the door of the activity room, and asked with a frown, "What's the matter?"
Qi Yan silently followed, but she was skillfully blocked by He Shichen, unable to face Chu Qianli face to face.
Chu Qianli's eyes dodged, and she tried dryly: "Brother, what, how long will it take you to leave, I think it's fine if you like to work overtime, can't we let our driver work overtime?"
"I don't mean to urge you at all, but do you want to consider other people's work experience?" Chu Qianli solemnly assured, "I am very willing to wait for you! There is absolutely no rush!"
He Shichen: "..." I think you are the one who is most anxious.
He Shichen said impatiently: "Go with Tan Muxing first, I'll come back later today."
Hearing this, Chu Qianli simply raised his hand to bid farewell, and said, "Okay, then bye, both of you, I wish you a happy 996!"
Qi Yan didn't join the topic the whole time. Seeing that Chu Qianli was about to leave, she hurriedly said, "He Shichen, don't you want to take her to see the weekend exhibition at the art museum?"
Chu Qianli showed curiosity: "What exhibition?"
Seeing that she was interested, Qi Yan immediately explained: "This week, the art museum will display some private collections, which are basically Western antiques, among them..."
He Shichen knew that the exhibition was inseparable from Qi Yan, he understood Chu Qianli's brain circuit very well, and said lightly: "If you can finish the art project you have been dragging after finishing the exhibition, then that's fine too."
Chu Qianli said decisively: "I'm sorry, I'm from my village, I really don't understand art, so I don't want to see the exhibition!"
"Bye!" Chu Qianli ran away in a hurry, afraid that he would not be able to get rid of his homework.
Seeing Chu Qianli being scared away, Qi Yan looked at He Shichen with displeasure.
He Shichen: "Don't look at me that way, the exhibition is organized by your family, right? You just want to run into her on the weekend."
Qi Yan felt that He Shichen was in the way, she and Chu Qianli were not in the same class and had nothing to talk about, it would be better if they could meet in private. She thought that Chu Qianli would be interested in the exhibition, but who would have thought that He Shichen would directly persuade him to leave.
In the class, Tan Muxing sat in his seat and did not leave, which attracted the attention of other students.
The friction between him and Wang Zheng changed the outlook of everyone in the class, but he still only dealt with Chu Qianli, occasionally chatted with Qiu Qingkong, other than that, there was no change.
Other people passed by and couldn't help but wondered: "Didn't you go with Chu Qianli today?"
Tan Muxing was taken aback, and whispered: "She will be back later."
"No wonder." One of them sighed, "You two have such a good relationship."
Tan Muxing: "Huh?"
"Isn't it? Your avatars are almost the same. I saw them in the class last time." The female student took out her mobile phone and said with a smile, "Is this a love avatar? It's quite cute."
Tan Muxing's face turned red in an instant, and he defended in a panic: "It's not love! You misunderstood!"
"We changed it with Qiu Qingkong, the three of us chose it together."
The female classmate said regretfully: "Well, I think you two are inseparable, and you use Sakura and Tomoyo."
Tan Muxing was silent for a few seconds, his lips moved, and finally he lowered his head and said softly: "Tomoyo is Sakura's friend, but it's just a friend, she doesn't know magic."
Tomoyo will always be with Sakura, but she has no magic power after all, she is still an ordinary person.
The female classmate didn't understand why he said this, and said confusedly: "Well, Zhishi seems to have no magic..."
Tan Muxing raised his head, he showed a wry smile, and said gently: "Don't get me wrong, we are just friends, and no one will be happy if I am made such a joke about me."
When everyone heard him utter self-deprecating words, they suddenly didn't know what to say.
Fortunately, Chu Qianli arrived in time. When the students saw her return, they said goodbye to them and left the class first.
Tan Muxing and the other tablemates packed up their things, and said, "Does He Shichen let you go first?"
"right."
Tan Muxing listened to her succinct words, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, but he could only follow silently.
The two came out of the teaching building, and when Chu Qianli walked to the playground, she finally couldn't hold back and asked dissatisfiedly, "Why did you say that?"
"What words?"
Chu Qianli looked straight at him: "There is no magic in Zhishi."
Chu Qianli happened to overhear Tan Muxing's conversation with other people, and she could understand when others didn't understand.
Tan Muxing didn't expect her to hear it, and immediately looked panic-stricken, hesitantly said: "But she just... has no magic..."
Chu Qianli: "Is it important to have magic?"
Talking about Muxing for a long time, he explained helplessly: "But that is a world with magic, just like "Harry Potter", it is about wizards, and people without magic are not so important."
"Sakura never thought that Zhishi needed magic, and audiences who liked Zhishi didn't think magic was very important." Chu Qianli said with downcast eyes, "And having magic might not be a good thing."
Don't talk about Mu Xing.
Tan Muxing understands her dissatisfaction, but he is a self-aware person.
Chu Qianli thinks that the two are the same, but they are different, she is special than others.
Tan Muxing: "But..."
Chu Qianli said angrily: "No but! You don't understand "Cardcaptor Sakura" at all!"
"..."
The two clashed for the first time.
Chu Qianli and Tan Muxing didn't break up, they still went to school and chatted every day, and they still stayed together after eating and after school, but there was an inexplicable awkwardness.
Qiu Qingkong was quite astonished: "You two can still quarrel? You can pretend to listen even if you are not interested in astrology. Can you still quarrel?"
Tan Muxing explained: "There was no quarrel, she just thought I didn't understand "Cardcaptor Sakura"."
Qiu Qingkong: "?"
Tan Muxing started to panic in the face of the status quo. To be honest, neither side is wrong, but they have different opinions. He always felt that Chu Qianli was playful and playful, heartless, and he didn't know why he was overwhelmed by "knowing the world without magic".
In front of the desk, Tan Muxing was looking at the messy sketches. He suddenly lost interest in designing, so he casually put the drafts aside, and saw the fool's card sealed in a wooden photo frame.
He took the well-preserved fool's card and looked at it for a long time without moving.
He was not interested in metaphysics, but he said he would believe her words, but there were exceptions to everything.
He didn't think he was as good as she said, and he took it as comfort when he accepted the fool's card.
Does she feel this, and that's why she's angry
Tan Muxing put down the fool's card, he let out a long sigh, held his head in distress, and thought about how to save the matter.
In the class, Tan Muxing felt deeply that he couldn't hold on to the stalemate. He took a peek at Chu Qianli next to him, and asked cautiously: "It is said that there is an exhibition related to astrology recently, are you going?"
Qiu Qingkong: "Sorry, I can't go, my friend asked me to help, let me take her to the celebrity meeting."
Chu Qianli stared closely at the tablemate and asked suspiciously, "Aren't you not interested in astrology?"
Tan Muxing was sweating on his forehead, and hurriedly said: "There are also paintings and so on displayed there, and you can also look at and collect inspiration for making clothes."
Chu Qianli nodded: "That's fine."
Tan Muxing let out a long sigh of relief, he was afraid that his deskmate would be angry, and now he took the opportunity to test it out, feeling that she should turn the page.
Chu Qianli didn't hold grudges, she basically forgot about it after eating and playing.
On weekends, the art museum has limited traffic, Tan Muxing booked tickets online in advance, and took Chu Qianli to visit the museum.
The museum is full of Western antiques and paintings, and tourists walk around casually, admiring rare collections.
"Do you have everything?" Chu Qianli looked around curiously. She suddenly saw Jin Cancan, and immediately stopped, "Golden pocket watch!"
Tan Muxing: "It seems to be a private collection, but the types are more complicated, and the stars are related there."
The two saw many old astrological charts and some simple stargazing instruments, but Chu Qianli lacked interest.
She waved her hand casually: "None of these things, it's not like I haven't seen it before. Come to my house some other day to see the golden armillary sphere, it's absolutely magnificent!"
Tan Mu Xing's expression was delicate, and he wondered to He Shichen, is there only a majestic "qi" left
Tan Muxing brought Chu Qianli here as she liked, but she didn't expect that she thought astrological antiques were boring, so she ran back to look at the gold and browsed the paintings on the wall.
According to her, the manuscripts of the star charts on display are too superficial and have long been out of date with the development of the times, and are of little help to her own astrological level.
Chu Qianli clung to the showcase and refused to leave, eagerly said: "I want this too."
Tan Muxing looked at the golden sphere, he hesitated: "Don't you have an armillary sphere?"
Chu Qianli defended: "This one is different, it's Western style, and it's also inlaid with pearls. You can't just wear one piece of clothing, of course you have to change it."
Tan Muxing didn't dare to answer, for fear of putting pressure on He Shichen. He pretended to look down at his phone, and said, "If we watch quickly, we'll eat later, and I'll check what's around..."
Chu Qianli nodded, she walked around the exhibition hall, looking at it casually.
After finishing the gold, she went to look at the paintings again. Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of a painting and stopped in a daze.
The tourists around whispered to each other, they all strolled in the exhibition hall, but no one noticed the specialness of this painting.
This is a flat and long art painting. The vast galaxy runs through the night, and the strange and romantic colors are entangled together. When you look at it from a distance, you can see the golden stars, but when you look closely, you can see the red crystals shining under the light. It is so beautiful. .
The others left after taking photos, but Chu Qianli did not move.
She stared at the painting intently, the amount of information in her mind exploded in an instant, and all kinds of images burst out uncontrollably!
After Tan Muxing searched the restaurant, he looked up and suddenly saw Chu Qianli, so he immediately looked around.
He wandered around the gold exhibition area, then rushed to the painting area next door, and finally found his deskmate who had disappeared.
Chu Qianli stood in front of a painting obsessively. She didn't move for a long time, as if her feet were stuck to the ground.
When Tan Muxing walked over, he immediately understood the reason and praised: "It's a beautiful painting."
The painting she admired was rich in color and magnificent in style, and it was indeed a masterpiece of starry sky with ingenuity.
Chu Qianli shook his head: "It's not a painting."
Tan Muxing was puzzled, looked down at the exhibits and said, "I've never heard of this artist."
He approached Chu Qianli, and suddenly found that her eyes were red, with tears in the corners of her eyes. He was in a panic for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with you!?"
Tan Muxing took out a tissue from her bag, not knowing why her deskmate was crying.
Chu Qianli took the tissue to thank her, wiped away the tears on her face, and said calmly: "The information is overloaded, and then there is a physiological reaction."
She was overwhelmed by the implied content of the painting, just like a computer processing complex information, which cannot be repaired after a violent shock and is in a short-term downtime.
"This is not a painting, this is a tarot card that has been put together, and it was made by a very powerful astrologer."
Tan Muxing was taken aback when he heard the words, he observed carefully, and said in disbelief: "Really? But I didn't see any gaps?"
Chu Qianli gestured to him through the barrier, and explained: "Here is a fool, and then a magician, but the painting is really ingenious, completely hidden in the starry sky, it is difficult for laymen to see..."
The cards of ordinary tarot cards are divided, but this set of cards can be tiled into a picture, and the card name is not marked at all. Of course, it will be mistaken for a picture.
"It seems so?" Tan Muxing said admiringly, "The painter is very thoughtful."
The author combines his own painting skills with astrology ability, which is a complete fusion of his lifelong learning.
The two admired for a while, and Tan Muxing suggested that they should go.
Chu Qianli's eyes lit up: "I want this!"
Tan Muxing: "Then take a picture, you can take it back and see it."
Chu Qianli repeated: "I want this!"
Tan Muxing: "?"
Talking about Evening Star: "But it's an exhibit?"
Chu Qianli was like a repeater, insisting: "I want this!"
Tan Muxing was silent for a moment, he didn't know how to deal with the brat, so he had a good-tempered discussion: "Otherwise, let's go back to the gold exhibition area right away, pick one you like and we will reproduce it, and ask for something with a higher probability."
He didn't respond well in the gold exhibition area just now, but now he understands Mr. Lu Xun's reasoning. If he wants to open the window, he must first talk about demolishing the house.
She directly said that she wanted to take the orphaned paintings on display, but he thought it would be better to choose the gold armillary sphere.
