late at night.
Chu Peiran walked to Qin Luo. He looked at the little dumpling who had nothing to do but pick his feet and asked with a smile: "There are still two grilled fish that are not finished. Do you want to throw them away?"
"Waste is shameful!"
Xiaotuanzi frowned, and she looked at Qin Luo, "Boss, I can help them finish eating."
"Go ahead."
Qin Luo nodded slightly.
Xiaotao and the others saw Xiaotuanzi swallowing her saliva, so they specially left two grilled fish for her.
"The Tathagatas of the ten directions share the same Tao. They are free from life and death with a straight heart." Qin Luo held the scriptures in his hands. He had read many scriptures and many sages' books with similar principles. He murmured softly, "It seems that the Tao is the law." Thousands of different paths lead to the same destination!”
Chu Peiran came to the bookshelf and picked up the meditation breathing method. "It's interesting. You can try it tonight."
After finishing the barbecue, Xiaotao and the others continued to clean up, and also cleaned up the old chessboard brought back by Chu Peiran.
"Caixia, let's play chess!"
"OK!"
Xiaotuanzi and Caixiapan were sitting in front of the chessboard. They took the chess pieces and placed them on the chessboard in a decent manner. Xiaotao and Doudou watched them play chess. Although they couldn't understand, they felt that they were very powerful.
Chu Peiran went over to take a look and found that they didn't know how to play chess at all. He wanted to play chess with a master, "Brother Taoist, why don't we play a game?"
"bring it on."
Qin Luo nodded in agreement.
He never met his opponent.
Chu Peiran and Qin Luo came upstairs. They sat by the window, and the bright moonlight shone on the chessboard.
"Brother Dao, please."
Chu Peiran stretched out his hand to signal.
Qin Luo holds Bai Luozi Tianyuan.
Chu Peiran's expression was calm and calm, and his sunspot fell on the star in the upper right corner.
Xiaotao and the others came upstairs to watch the battle. Xiaotuanzi and Caixia also followed them upstairs. Qin Luo and Chu Peiran came and went, and they made moves very quickly.
Xiaotuanzi sat on Qin Luo's shoulders, holding her knees and looking at the chessboard. Caixia stood on the bench, watching the changes in the chess game. Xiaotao and Doudou brought two cups of freshly brewed hot tea.
As the chess game came to the middle of the game, Chu Peiran felt a lot of pressure. He picked up the teacup and drank tea. Qin Luo was also thinking. He was wondering where Chu Peiran's chess piece would land.
"can't read!"
Xiaotuanzi hugged his little feet and smelled them.
Chu Peiran made another move, but the position was different from what Qin Luo thought. He thought Chu Peiran would fight head-on, but unexpectedly he chose to defend instead.
Qin Luo continued to surround Black's dragon.
Chu Peiran frowned slightly. He stepped up his attack on some of the white chess pieces, hoping to encircle Wei and save Zhao, thereby delaying Qin Luo's attack on the black chess dragon.
Qin Luo didn't care about local gains and losses and continued to besiege Black's dragon.
Chu Peiran is doing partial promotion.
Seeing the white pieces being placed outside the chessboard, Xiaotuanzi's eyes widened. He felt that with fewer white pieces, the boss was at a disadvantage.
Xiao Tao doesn't know how to play chess, but she can see that Chu Peiran is very nervous and has been drinking tea.
Qin Luo continued to attack Black's big dragon, which made Chu Peiran nervous. When masters play chess, dragons are rarely killed, but now Black's Big Dragon is in a very bad situation.
Chu Peiran could not continue to attack part of the white chess piece. He wanted to find a way to revive the black chess dragon, so he stared at the chessboard intently.
A long time later, it was late at night.
Qin Luo looked at the silent Jiangling City outside the window and said softly: "Brother Chu, it's getting late. Let's play this game tomorrow."
When Chu Peiran came back to his senses, he realized that it was already very late and Xiaotao and the others would have to work tomorrow. "Okay, let's all go to bed early."
Qin Luo came to the room on the third floor facing Luoshui. He lay on the bed to rest. The little dumpling went into his pocket and curled up, only showing a strand of dull hair.
When Caixia went downstairs to turn off the lights, she looked at Guichen who was still copying scriptures and wondered whether to turn off the lights. Finally, after thinking about it, she decided to keep the light on.
Only the lights on the first floor of Qinghe Building were still on.
Qin Luo closed his eyes and rested. Through Luoshui, he saw Wu Shashen resting by the river. His breathing sounded like thunder, and the surrounding beasts did not dare to approach.
Wu Shashen is on his way to Jinghu Lake. With his speed, he will reach Baiyun Town tomorrow.
Although he has been away from Longhu Temple for a long time, Qin Luo can now see Longhu Temple and Jinghu Academy through Luoshui every day.
Jin Yan would go to the river to fetch water every morning, and Ziyue would go to the river to fish with the little otters every evening. The market at the foot of Luoxia Peak became more and more lively.
Jinghu Academy is surrounded by flowers, plants and trees, and it is a prosperous scene. The academy has not officially taught classes yet, and some children are already living in the academy.
silent Night.
Linglong had her hands behind her back, her pretty face was serious, and she was walking back and forth in the empty classroom, looking left and right with sharp eyes, as if the classroom was full of students.
Qinghe Building.
Chu Peiran was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, with the chess game in his mind.
After thinking about it, Chu Peiran left the room. He sat in front of the chessboard and continued to think.
The next day, early morning.
Before dawn, the sound of carriages and horses appeared on the street, and Xiaotao and the others got up one after another.
When Xiao Tao went downstairs, she saw Chu Peiran who was attentive. She did not disturb him. When she came to the first floor, Guichen was still copying scriptures and the oil lamp on the table had been extinguished.
Doudou made ginger soup in the kitchen.
Xiaotao came to Guichen with a bowl of ginger soup in both hands, and said respectfully with a small face: "Master, this is the freshly brewed ginger soup. Please taste it."
"Thank you donor."
Guichen took the ginger soup and took a sip.
Caixia looked at the tall monk and asked doubtfully: "The monks in the temple don't seem to drink ginger soup?"
Guichen nodded, "You are right, but this is a gift from the donor."
"oh."
Caixia nodded thoughtfully.
Doudou brought a bowl of ginger soup to Chu Peiran. Seeing that he was thinking seriously, he gently put the ginger soup aside without disturbing him.
"Chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp..."
The little group sang loudly upstairs.
People passing by had to take a look upstairs.
"Don't disturb passers-by."
"Hi!"
Xiaotuanzi could only give up.
Qin Luo came downstairs. He saw Chu Peiran sitting in front of the chessboard, so he walked over and said hello, "Brother Chu, have you made up your mind?"
Chu Peiran shook his head and sighed, "Brother Dao, can you tell me about your idea of playing chess?"
Qin Luo sat opposite Chu Peiran and chuckled: "I play chess based on feeling."
"Feel?"
Chu Peiran was a little surprised.
Qin Luo said with a smile: "Brother Chu, you might as well follow your feeling."
"OK."
Chu Peiran didn't think about the outcome, he made his moves based on his feelings, and Qin Luo also made his moves quickly.
You come and go. After dozens of moves, Chu Peiran's big dragon was slaughtered, and he surrendered. "I lost. It seems that only Brother Tao's feeling is right."
"It was just a fluke."
"There's no shame in losing to my boss."
Xiao Tao brought ginger soup to Qin Luo, "Master Dao, this is the ginger soup made according to your instructions. Please try it."
Qin Luo picked up the bowl and took a sip of ginger soup.
"Sister Xiaotao, I want to drink too."
Xiaotuanzi's mouth is very sweet.
Qin Luo handed her the remaining ginger soup, "Don't waste it, drink it all."
Xiaotuanzi picked up the bowl that was bigger than her face and drank the ginger soup in a few gulps. "It tastes so bad. I will never drink it again."
Chu Peiran said seriously: "Only by enduring hardship can one become a master."
"I don't believe it."
Xiaotuanzi tilted his head proudly.
The building was very clean in the early morning, and Chu Peiran continued to teach Xiaotao and Doudou how to read.
Qin Luo was teaching Xiaotuanzi the Thousand-Character Classic. She learned it quickly because she often listened to it at Longhu Temple.
"Copy the thousand-character essay once."
"If you don't write well, copy it twice."
Qin Luo put a small stool on the table, and the little dumpling sat cross-legged in front of the stool. She held the pen and wrote seriously. She wrote every stroke carefully. She could still distinguish between one stroke and two strokes.
Seeing Xiaotuanzi writing seriously, Qin Luo nodded with satisfaction, just because he wanted to hone Xiaotuanzi's character in this way.
Half a day passed.
Xiaotuanzi stretched and said, "I've finally finished writing, boss, take a look."
Qin Luo looked at the thousand-character essay written by Xiaotuanzi. The characters were very large. Although they were not very beautiful, each character could be easily distinguished.
"If you make progress, you still need to practice more."
Qin Luo smiled and nodded.
"Hey, I got it."
Xiaotuanzi posted the thousand-character essay she wrote in the middle of the wall, "It's so well written! I'm also a cultured bird."
Qin Luo hung a piece of peach wood near the thousand-character inscription. The word "Qin" was written on the front, the word "Jing" was written on the back, and the word "Qingxue" was written on the peach wood next to it.
"Boss, I want to write too."
"You write it."
Qin Luo threw her a piece of peach wood.
Xiaotuanzi writes "Tuanzi" on the front, and draws a round little tit on the back. There is a wisp of dull hair on the top of the head, which looks domineering.
"Finish."
"I'm so smart."
Xiaotuanzi smiled happily. She hung her peach tree next to Qin Luo's peach tree.
At noon, Guichen copied the scriptures he knew into a book and put them all on the bookshelf of Qinghe Building, "Amitabha."
Chu Peiran saw that Qin Luo and Xiaotuanzi both left wooden plaques as souvenirs. He took out a piece of sandalwood and wrote the word "Chu" on the front and the word "Ren" on the back.
Guichen couldn't see it, but he knew the words written by Chu Peiran and others. He took out a piece of rotten wood and wrote the word "Chen" on the front and the word "Yuan" on the back.
On the originally monotonous wall, a thousand-character inscription and five wooden plaques suddenly appeared. When the breeze blew, the five wooden plaques would wander around, making a crisp sound when they collided.
After noon, people come to Qinghe Building to drink tea one after another. The people who come to Qinghe Building will be attracted by the five wooden signs on the wall.
Xiaotao and the others started to get busy. Many of the customers were friends from Amway. They came here to read, play chess, drink tea and chat. Qinghe Building became more and more famous in Jiangling City.
