In the past two days, hanging out with Wu Yuan, it was a perfect harmony of yin and yang, water and fire. By the time Wu Yuan left for Shanghai, he was already feeling comfortable and peaceful both inside and outside.
Unexpectedly, only two days later, I felt the heat again.
However, today's hot and dry weather is different from the "sequelae" of getting up in the morning in the past.
There is no dryness in the "sequelae", it is upright, gentle and gentle.
Li Shi thought of what he had eaten in the afternoon: four roasted lamb kidneys, seven oysters, a lot of roasted lamb and beef skewers, a lot of roasted leeks...
There was a wry smile on his face.
"Well, I'm a bit greedy."
He set out the pen, paper and inkstone, and was too lazy to grind the ink on the spot. He directly took a bottle of ready-made ink from the bookcase and poured some into the inkstone.
He bought this kind of ink online at a price of 65 yuan a bottle and a pound. Li Shi directly ordered a large box of 50 bottles.
His calligraphy is meant to challenge the masters. These fifty kilograms of ink, plus the twenty one-tael fine handmade Hui ink ink sticks bought by Rong Baozhai, will probably not be enough.
Pick up the pen and start writing the Tao Te Ching on the paper.
This time, he wrote on the silk script unearthed from the Mawangdui Han Tomb in Tanzhou.
"The Tao can be the Tao, but it is not the eternal Tao. The name can be named, but it is not the eternal name. The nameless is the beginning of all things. The name is the mother of all things. Therefore, there is always no desire, so as to observe its wonders, there is always desire. To see what they are doing. They come from the same place, have different names and the same name. They are both mysterious and mysterious, and they are the gateway to many wonderful things."
As long as he is immersed in calligraphy, Li Shi's inner anger will immediately calm down a lot.
But just after writing a paragraph, the cell phone placed aside rang several times.
Putting down the pen, I first replied to Ding Mian’s thank you message after accepting the red envelope, and then opened QQ.
"Stubborn stone, what are you doing?"
"Why didn't you speak suddenly?"
Li Shi touched his chin with his left hand and said with a smile: "I was just upset, so I'm practicing calligraphy now."
Bai Mangmang: "Do you practice calligraphy to calm yourself down?"
Li Shi smiled and replied: "That's right."
Bai Mangmang: "Speaking of which, I'm actually a little irritable today. Didn't I tell you last time that I planned to go on a trip with my family to relax in the near future? Alas, I can't go for the time being."
Li Shi was stunned and quickly asked: "Why?"
Bai Mangmang seemed to know that Li Shi would ask, he had already entered it, and quickly replied: "Some things happened temporarily, and new opportunities have appeared in my family and their work. In comparison, I still think their careers are more important, so let them first I’m busy with my career, so we’ll see after a while.”
Li Shi naturally knew that the "they" she was referring to were the two sisters Ailan and Aiya.
They have been idle since they transferred the coffee shop last year. Did they find a job or something?
Bai Mangmang then added: "If that doesn't work, it would be the same if I went out to play by myself. Maybe the first stop would be to Xijing. (*^▽^*)"
Seeing her mention Xijing, Li Shi knew that she was referring to her idea of exploring the ancient capital of several dynasties.
He also said that he would accompany her.
Is it some kind of hint to bring it up at this time?
He thought about it and decided that he still shouldn't answer the question.
He will be very busy later and may not have that time.
After chatting for a few words, Li Shi continued to practice calligraphy.
At around eight o'clock in the evening, Ailan, the sister of the sisters, took the initiative to call him and told him the situation in a conflicted mood.
It turned out that they had an aunt who was working as a fashion designer abroad. She came back to attend the funeral and expressed that she wanted to stay in China to develop and build her own clothing brand. When she learned that they were currently unemployed, she wanted the sisters to go. Help her.
"My aunt has always been very kind to us. Every time she comes back, she brings us a lot of gifts. She even gives us pocket money regularly - only for Xiaoya and me, but not for my eldest brother and my other cousins. She used to open a coffee shop Most of the money for the store comes from the pocket money she gave us."
"She has been married three times but has no children. She said she did not plan to have children, so she treated our sisters as daughters."
Li Shi smiled and said: "Your aunt wants to take you to start a business together. This is a good thing. Anyway, you can come to me to play at any time when you have time."
Ai Lan felt a little sad: "Well, I just feel it's a pity that I have been thinking about it for so long. But it's not good for my sister and I to be doing nothing all the time, so..."
Li Shi said: "Well, indeed, our early twenties is a good time for us to start our careers."
"Uh-huh."
After receiving Li Shi's affirmation and support, Ai Lan became in high spirits and talked a lot about her aunt, adding, "My aunt said that to build a clothing brand, it is best to go to Yangcheng or Pengcheng, so from now on, my sister and I, We may develop in those two cities.”
…
After hanging up the phone, Li Shi thought to himself that since the sisters would not come to Tanzhou for the time being, the subsequent plans would have to change accordingly.
"There is no need to avoid asking Bai Mangmang for advice on the teaching qualification interview in the plan."
“But don’t rush it, let’s pass the written test first!”
For the next week, Li Shi stayed at home to study in retreat.
He went through the reference books for the three courses of the written examination for teaching qualifications again, and went through more than a dozen sets of real and simulated test papers. In the last six times, after converting the paper scores of the three courses into 120 points, his score exceeded 100 every time. separated.
Li Shi temporarily stopped his teaching-related studies and began to continue studying history. In addition to reading "Records of Historical Readings" and "Chinese Historical Atlas", he was also compiling his own "Pre-Qin Cultural Context Guide" , and thinking about how to make the first relevant historical video.
"Pre-Qin Cultural Context Guide" is divided into seven stages according to the stages of historical development: the Paleolithic Age, the Neolithic Age, the Xia Dynasty, the Shang Dynasty, the Western Zhou Dynasty, the Spring and Autumn Period, and the Warring States Period. Li Shi also plans to write seven chapters based on these seven stages. A big chapter.
Because the information collected before was relatively complete, and his compilation ideas had been straightened out during the study tour, the writing went smoothly.
The first major chapter is almost finished.
The reason why the word "accurate" is added in front is because the current compilation is not perfect. First, sort out the branches and lay out the main line, and then add more information and more content to it later.
What’s not smooth is how to convert the content into video.
"When making a video, it must be a 'highlight' or even a little gimmick."
"The comparison between mythological stories and archaeological excavations is one of the highlights."
"The second highlight is that I use sketches to restore mythological scenes and life scenes, and even restore the appearance of ancient people based on excavated bones, especially skulls."
…
"The number of video issues can be directly based on the chapters of the book. The first issue will start with a sketch of the life of a tribe in the Paleolithic Age!"
"You can put all the excavated cultural relics into life scenes!"
On the afternoon of March 31st, Li Shi, who was sitting at his desk thinking, suddenly had the idea for his first video.
Or, the title of this issue is called "I traveled to the Paleolithic Age"
Inspired, he picked up a pen and paper and started writing:
"When I woke up, I found that I had traveled to a cave in Houdu Village, Ruicheng City, Shanxi 1.8 million years ago."
"There was a fire burning in the cave, and a strong man was chopping up a deer carcass with a sharp stone, removing the antlers and venison from it, and handing them to a dry woman, who was about to burn the carcass on the fire. Heaping them up for roasting, suddenly a sharp cry came from outside, and the men and girls all changed their colors and ran out of the cave in panic."
"I also had a bad premonition, so I followed out and found that outside was a sparse forest and grassland, with green vegetation everywhere. Two men ran over from the river carrying an ancient carp that was more than half a meter long, and took the carp away. Throwing it on the ground and yelling."
…
"Suddenly a huge saber-toothed tiger jumped out of the grass and bit my neck in one bite."
"I seemed to smell the fishy smell of the saber-toothed tiger. Before I could think about it, my eyes went dark and I lost consciousness."
"When I woke up again, I found that I had traveled through time again, this time in Zhoukoudian, the capital of 35,000 to 50,000 years ago."
…
It only took Li Shi half an hour to write the first draft of the first issue. He took two time travels and selected the Xihoudu site and the Zhoukoudian site to introduce the early and late Paleolithic era in a life-like way. Tribal life during the time period.
The manuscript is written, the most important thing is to draw it!
Li Shi found out the shooting equipment he had bought before and set it up at an angle in the study.
Spread out a piece of white paper, pick up a pencil, and start drawing based on the text and archaeological data and pictures!
…
Sabre-toothed tiger?
According to research, saber-toothed tigers lived from 35 million to 1 million years ago and were widely distributed in Asia, Europe and the Americas.
Therefore, it is really possible that such ancient beasts existed in Xihoudu Village 1.8 million years ago.
When the saber-toothed tiger appeared in the painting, Li Shi picked up the tablet and quickly searched where in the country the fossils of saber-toothed tigers had been unearthed.
The results obtained are that they have been unearthed in Nanyun Province, Hui'an Province and many other places.
I also found a photo of a saber-toothed tiger fossil on the Internet and some existing restored pictures, and started researching it.
…
It only took more than half an hour to write the first draft, but it took Li Shi two and a half days to finalize the draft and prepare all the materials according to the draft.
Of course, during this process, he also completed the first draft of the chapter on the Paleolithic Age at the beginning of "Pre-Qin Cultural Context Guide".
On April 2, Li Shi spent another day editing the video and dubbing it.
In the end, the name of this video was changed to "The second time I passed through the Paleolithic Age, the things I casually threw on the roadside became museum collections"
Watching the video of the finished work, Li Shi felt unusually tired.
Of course, I am tired.
This sixty-two-minute video consumed too much of his energy.
However, after watching it from beginning to end, the sense of accomplishment welling up in my heart was overwhelming!
Such a high-quality video was actually made by me? !
Awesome!
So awesome!
Li Shi has always felt that he is a picky person, but he was so satisfied with this video that he immediately felt the urge to share it.
Upload directly?
Li Shi stood up, took two steps, and then sat back down.
No need to be in such a hurry.
He sat down and watched the video twice more, fine-tuned some details, and only after confirming that nothing could be changed, he opened the Bilibili app on his tablet.
After logging in, I registered a new account with a new mobile phone number and changed my name to "Dashi Wan".
Originally he wanted to do the same as QQ and changed it to "The rock is very big". Unexpectedly, someone else got there first, so he did the opposite.
However, the converse didn't work, so I dropped "very" and directly used "大石狠".
Everything is ready.
Upload, upload!
The video is relatively large and will take some time to upload.
He got up and went to the bathroom in the master bedroom to take a shower, change his clothes, and then took the tablet to see that it had been uploaded successfully.
I immediately used the large account I usually use to watch videos on the Bilibili app to search for the video I just uploaded. I first liked it and voted for it, then shared it with the "We Three" group through WeChat, and then shared it with Bai Mangmang through QQ.
"Student Mangmang, come and watch it. My video is ready. Please give me a review."
Bai Mangmang seemed to be living on the Internet and immediately replied: "Let's go right now!"
The photo that looked similar to Gao Yuanyuan appeared in Li Shi's mind. He imagined her expression after seeing the video and smiled.
Look at the time, it's around four in the afternoon.
Looking at the time, I suddenly felt a little hungry, so I took the Bentley car keys and went downstairs.
After staying at home for so many days, it’s time to go out for a walk.
Time has entered April, the weather has turned warm completely, and everyone’s clothes are much thinner.
The car drove to a nearby shopping mall and found a restaurant to eat.
After entering a small restaurant that serves clay pot rice, I ordered a piece of blood duck crispy rice, and then took out my mobile phone. In the "We Three" group, the two fairy trees at home had already filled the screen with a bunch of rainbow farts.
Li Shi couldn't help but feel happy, and typed back: "You haven't even finished the sixty-minute video! (Do you want a spanking?)"
Chen Qiuye: "Although I haven't finished watching it, the video you made, Shitou, is indeed very good. The quality is particularly high. It shows life in ancient times in the form of a time-travel story. It is also so sophisticated. It is not only interesting, but also full of information! (Strong) (Strong) )"
Wang Yuelan: "Yes, Qiuye is so right!"
Li Shi continued to laugh: "Well, what you said makes some sense. (Hehe)"
When the waiter brought the claypot rice, Li Shi took a bite. The blood duck was spicy, and the rice was crispy, soft, glutinous, and fragrant. The rich texture was quite good.
only……
Li Shi took a few bites to rest his stomach, then picked up his phone and typed in the group: "Qiuye, I want to eat the meat buns made by Sister Lan."
No matter how delicious the food outside is, it is far from as good as the cooking skills of my own woman.
Chen Qiuye quickly replied: "I was just about to tell you that I will be on vacation on July 89th. Then I will go back to Tanzhou with Sister Lan. Seeing how pitiful our little stone is, I will let Sister Lan stay in Tanzhou to take care of you this time. alright."
Today is the 2nd, which is four days from now.
While eating, Li Shi couldn't help but think about the uploaded video and repeatedly went to station b to look at the data. However, in the end, there were only about twenty plays and two comments. The comments were still posted by Qiuye and Yuelan.
He is quite calm. He has a new account and just posted a video. This is normal. Please wait.
After eating, we came out of the store and walked around the mall for a while.
Li Shi never liked shopping alone like this, but he didn't plan to go back. He was doing videos and studying recently, which really made him a little tired. He wanted to relax for a few days.
Open the WeChat address book and scroll from top to bottom.
Who to look for? (End of chapter)
