Chapter 58 The Quiet Village
The group of people came to a rather remote village with a sense of simplicity and vicissitudes. There are walls made of adobe everywhere, and most of the houses are made of large rocks. There are dozens of houses, and every household has The towering chimneys are at dusk and sunset at this time, the golden light is projected down, and the smoke rises, bringing a different kind of tranquility and harmony.

This is Tang Guangbo's hometown, but he doesn't live here now. His family has already moved into the county town, but there is still an old house here. Chu Ping and his party want to stay there!
"I'm so tired, this place is too remote!" Guo Yu in the dormitory complained loudly, carrying three large travel bags, with a bitter face.

Tang Guangbo laughed, "That's not enough. When I was young, I ran back and forth countless times. Our body is trained like this!"

Tang Guangbo's words immediately aroused boos!
Chu Ping stopped and stared, and saw that behind this mountain village was a mountain forest, densely packed with big trees, growing all the way up the hillside, forming a stretch of continuous hills.Lush and lush, all are tall mountain trees, tall and tall like mountain gods guarding this mountainous area. The lush branches and leaves form a large area, which cannot even shine through the sun.

"Look at Chu Ping, you're so thin, you've walked such a long distance without sweating and you're so tall and mighty!" Tang Guangbo teased Guo Yu with a smile.

Guo Yu is the tallest one in the Chuping dormitory. He is 1.8 meters tall, slightly obese, and weighs a full two hundred catties. He also likes to play basketball. He is considered a strong type in modern society.

"Hey, Xiaoping, I can't tell. You haven't broken a sweat after carrying three big bags!" After listening to Tang Guangbo's words, the people next to him turned their attention to Chu Ping. Breathing is still even as usual, especially in the hot summer, there is no sweat.

Chu Ping smiled slightly, "That's different. Fat people are resistant to cold, while thin people are resistant to drought."

One sentence immediately elicited another burst of laughter.

Entering the village, the cramped village road is full of poultry flying around, big dogs looking for food in the corner, and the old man sitting at the door at dusk, holding a cattail fan, which looks extraordinarily peaceful.

"When I got here, I seem to have returned to the ancient times. It's really like a paradise!" A girl said in admiration, taking a breath, with a bit of fascination on her face.

"Yes, yes, there are no factory roads, no noise pollution, it is a place isolated from the world!" It was Ruan Qiuhua who spoke, and she also participated in this time.

"It's just ahead. I haven't been back to this hometown for a long time. My grandparents have always helped clean up. Only during the Chinese New Year, our family will come back occasionally." Tang Guangbo pointed to a house not far ahead. Said loudly.

Twelve people rushed over in a hurry and walked the mountain road for more than half an hour. When they heard that they could finally settle down and rest, they were all overjoyed. They wished they could sit down now.

Tang Guangbo's hometown, the house is quite spacious and quiet, and there is no tall courtyard wall, just some rocks built up, separated from the road, and there are a few houses, which are slightly dilapidated, but can also shelter from wind and rain. For this hot summer, it is better than many dwellings in small buildings.

After entering the house, the inside is quite tidy. There are five rooms, three of which are connected to the living, sitting and sleeping areas. Each room has a wooden bed, and there is no dust on it. Obviously, it is often cleaned.

"Everyone packed up the things in the bags and put them on the bed. Three big beds were moved together and all were given to the girls. The boys cleaned the floor, spread a mat, and slept on the floor." Wang Huaqiang is worthy of being the boss of the dormitory. , greeted loudly.

A group of people opened the cloth bags, most of which were food and clothing, and everyone brought a blanket, but Tang Guangbo's house had a lot of mats, which could be spread on the bed for sleeping.

The cool mat is extremely comfortable to lie on.

"Everyone is hungry. I'll go to my grandfather's place to see if there is anything to eat?" Tang Guangbo said loudly, and went to the next courtyard.

"Don't be too busy, if we can't do it, we can cook and eat by ourselves!" Ruan Qiuhua shouted loudly from behind, but Tang Guangbo went very fast, and disappeared after turning around.

After all, the dinner was delivered by Mr. Tang. He heard that his grandson brought a group of classmates to play. The two of them were very happy. They both came over for dinner and talked for a while, and the old faces were full of smiles.

As an old man, he likes seeing a group of children very much.

After dinner, a group of people were so exhausted that they all lay down on the beds and on the sleeping ground.

It was only eight o'clock in the evening, and the sky was just completely dark, with stars shining like buckets, illuminating the yard brightly, and the cool mountain breeze blowing in, driving away the heat of the day, and a few candles were lit in the room, and the candlelight was flickering , quite a bit of artistic conception.

Although everyone was tired, they were extremely excited mentally. They lay on the cool mats, breathed the pure air, felt the cool breeze, and talked in low voices.

These children who grew up in the city have never seen such a scene before, the rocky houses, the cool night breeze, and the lighting of candles. Needless to say, they feel a sense of novelty in their hearts.

Even Chu Ping had lived in his hometown's countryside since he was a child, but that was already a very modern farm, where there is such a mountainous scenery.

"Hey, Chu Ping, are you interested in going out for a walk?" Ruan Qiuhua leaned over lightly and asked in a low voice.

"Okay, I'm thinking about that too." Chu Ping got up from the ground. Although he didn't get rid of the sleeping habit of ordinary people, his need for sleep has obviously decreased a lot. When I arrived in Xindi, I was interested, so I agreed.

"Hey, you young couple go out at night, don't run into goblins or ghosts or anything!" Everyone next to them booed!
"While playing, the dog can't spit out ivory!" Chu Ping scolded with a smile, Ruan Qiuhua blushed, but said nothing.

When the two of them left the yard, they saw the stars in the sky, bright everywhere, and occasionally there were a few dogs barking and chickens crowing, which added to the silence. It sounds as calming as just being on snow.

There are still many people enjoying the shade outside, old and young, half lying on the benches, enjoying themselves.

"This place really makes people feel peaceful. If it can be like this for a lifetime, it's actually not bad." Ruan Qiuhua looked at the old people with gray hair on the temples and said aloud.

"Yeah, people in the world are disturbing and scrambling for power and profit. How can you feel comfortable here?" Chu Ping looked at these people, who lived in remote mountain villages, unlike those people in big cities who were obsessed with fame, wealth and wealth. Suddenly, he remembered two months ago. The girl named Xu Jing I met on the train talked to him about the principle of impermanence, and she realized something in her heart.

"Impermanence is the truth in the world. In all situations, you can be at ease with the situation. Compassion and wisdom are combined to study the true meaning of life. If you want to seek the true meaning, you must seek it from the heart. If you want to follow the heart, you need to comprehend it. If you want to comprehend it, you need to contemplate impermanence. Contemplate impermanence , Only then can we have a compassionate heart, take care of impermanence, and know that gain and loss are empty. Let go of self-attachment, and then you will have the real self, know the real self, and know that there is no self..."

Thinking of this, Chu Ping smiled, "Wuxiang Temple pays attention to the practice of mudra, the left hand is long and still, it is the hand of compassion, and it is used to overcome stupid and obstinate beings, the right hand is always moving, it is the hand of wisdom, and it is a sharp weapon for crossing the roots, which is called 'compassion and wisdom'. Putting your hands together is a Dharma seal, cutting off the afflictions and obscurations of greed, anger, ignorance, doubt and arrogance. If it is then, this nine-character Dharma seal will be considered a great achievement!"

Seeing the smile on Chu Ping's face, Ruan Qiuhua asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Chu Ping chuckled, "It's nothing, I just thought of something suddenly!"

Ruan Qiuhua rolled his eyes, "It's strange to believe you!" Looking up, he suddenly saw a slender and slender figure in the distance in front of him, walking alone under the starlight, elegant and quiet, with curly hair and shoulders, reflecting the starlight like a wave of water, In such an environment, it looks like a dream, ethereal and spirited.

"Hey, look at that girl." Ruan Qiuhua touched Chu Ping's arm and whispered.

Chu Ping looked up, the stars were like water, the beauty was like a charm, and a sense of trance flashed in his heart, suddenly felt that the girl's back was quite familiar, and said aloud, "Go, go up and have a look."

Ruan Qiuhua's eyes showed a bit narrow, "Shancunyedian, you are not afraid of meeting female ghosts and fox fairies, you are so daring!"

Chu Ping gave a weird smile, "My fair lady, a gentleman is so good, let's go."

The two rushed forward, the girl heard footsteps behind her, and turned around, seeing the two, her eyes showed some surprise, and after seeing the two clearly, she blurted out, "It's you!"

Seeing the other person's face clearly, Chu Ping was also surprised, and said involuntarily, "It's you!"
