Chapter 1 Engagement Banquet
In the middle sea in June, the plum rain raged. It's foggy and gloomy every day, and the sultry weather makes everyone feel happy. I'm sweaty every day. I'm not bored. Only the storm seems to be able to vent the irritability in my heart.
The rainstorm that has condensed for a long time has just stopped, and there is continuous lightning on the spire of the Oriental Pearl in the distance, but it has begun to gather a new round of power.
At the beginning of the shower, the pedestrians returned to the sidewalk. The crowd gathered at the bus stop to take shelter from the rain was about to disperse. A black car drove by and happened to run over the puddle in front of it, which immediately provoked a burst of scolding.
Zhang Ping's trousers were no exception, and he was caught by the sudden dirty water.
TMD, where did the bird man come from? The road is so wide, and the pressure puddles are biased. I'll clean you up if I have a chance. Zhang Ping cursed in a low voice and tried to open his eyes, but he only saw a license plate number ending with 168.
The people next to him who sheltered the rain also complained. A young man scolded and said enviously: Kao, it's a BMW. Why are there so many rich people now? It's really not a thing to stay at home on rainy days and come out to harm the people.
Zhang Ping smiled and responded: If you are not kind, you will be punished sooner or later. No matter how awesome it is, it may be cool one day.
Everyone laughed. At this time, several buses drove back and forth, and the crowd suddenly jumped up and swarmed up.
Get out of the car and turn around a street. It is the destination of this trip - Hongta Hotel. Looking at the sparse pedestrians in front of him, the corners of Zhang Ping's mouth twitched, wondering whether the rainstorm would make the old classmate's engagement banquet much more pale.
A sudden movement in his heart and he noticed that someone behind him was approaching him quickly. So he calculated secretly and suddenly flashed to the side, and a figure staggered forward and almost slipped in the rain. Zhang Ping hurriedly grabbed her arm and laughed.
"Damn, every time you do this, I really doubt if you have eyes behind your back. "Monster" Wang Lan, wearing a white blouse-style dress, stood in front of him.
Before Zhang Ping could speak, Wang Lan took him up and down to look at him, pointed to Zhang Ping's trousers and smiled. Zhang Ping blushed. Yes, he was scolded secretly by the BMW just now.
"Oh, you're really. I haven't seen you for so long. It's not easy to participate in the engagement of my old classmates. You actually make yourself dirty. I'm so embarrassed."
"Don't mention it, it's unlucky. It's not my fault. They all blame Nini for being bad. It's such a ghostly weather. Who let me have no money to ride a BMW, so I have to be a dick. Zhang Ping said carelessly, and then he seemed to think of something and asked, "Bright, didn't you all say that you were going abroad? Why did you come out today and scare me like a ghost? What about yours? Didn't I see you off today?"
"Well, don't mention it. It's unlucky. It's depressing to say. I'll tell you another day." With that, the two walked into the lobby of the hotel.
As soon as he entered the hall, a huge fist flew over and hit Zhang Ping's chest directly. How long has it been since you didn't show up? Did you go somewhere to look for flowers and ask willows?" Then a fat and hippie glanced at Wang Lan: "Tut, no wonder it was hidden by Miss Wang's golden house, haha"
Wang Lan blushed, but tightened Zhang Ping and said with a delicate smile, "Yes, yes, who is like you? Isn't it uncomfortable to be alone?"
Zhang Ping laughed twice, approached Wang Lan's face and said, "That's right, big head, let's see our little couple perform a kiss first." Wang Lan hurriedly fled, and her delicate face suddenly turned red, which immediately caused a burst of laughter.
Zhang Pingping and Mo Wei and Li Lanxing are both graduates of the Department of Computer Science of Fuhua University. They were crawling in a dormitory. However, Wang Lan and Sun Ni are top students in the architecture department of Freeji University. When I was a junior, the two dormitories had a friendship. Since then, the relationship between the people has become closer and closer. In particular, Li Lanxing and Sun Ni are even more difficult to distinguish, until they still stick together every day after graduation. It took three years to hold this formal engagement ceremony, which surprised everyone. However, it was this engagement that made people who haven't seen each other for a long time feel very excited.
Mo Wei is burly, with a pair of gold glasses on his huge head, which doesn't look very well. However, this guy is a famous computer master, who helped Zhang Ping through the difficulties when he was in school. After graduation, he directly entered the famous Weihua Company and has become a technical master of one of the projects. Li Lanxing has never left school. This year, he has been recommended for a doctorate, and then he will rush to the United States to study in exchange. This is also the reason why Sun Ni insisted on getting married.
Comparatively speaking, Zhang Ping is very ordinary, but he is very free. After graduation, he did not look for a job, but went straight to Tibet and stayed for more than two years. When he came back, his beard was long, and his whole body smelled of ghee tea. At that time, he smoked Mo Wei to cry. Next, Zhang Ping regained his senses and worked on software testing in a small software company.
The engagement ceremony is not very grand, but it is very formal. Li Lanxing and Sun Ni's family conditions are very good, and they should be rooted in Zhonghai, so the parents, relatives and friends of both sides have come a lot, and the laughter is endless.
Looking at Sun Ni and Li Lanxing busy, Mo Wei next to him was unwilling to be lonely. He was grasping to get close to a little girl around him. Although the head is big, the goods inside are really good. Mo Wei's eloquence is also very good. He trembled the little girl's words. It seems to be really interesting. And Wang Lan has been chattering with other female classmates for a long time.
Zhang Ping suddenly felt a little bored. He stood up and left his seat. He found a sofa in the corner with a glass of red wine and sat down. Closing my eyes, the scene two years ago suddenly came to my mind.
It was also a wedding banquet, but in Tibet, Zhang Ping sat cross-legged among a group of herdsmen in a Tibetan robe, watching the groom Zamorasi offering Hada to his parents with great interest. The bride is a famous local beauty. I don't know how much effort it took Zamorasi to pursue it. At this time, she was so happy that her eyes narrowed. Watching him lead the bride into the bridal chamber, Zhang Ping was also happy, because Zamorasi was his brother, and both of them were apprentices of the old Tibetan monk Ximin. This time, Zhang Ping came to Tibet to find this brother. It took him two months to find him. He never wanted to encounter such a festive scene.
At first glance, Zamorasi was extremely excited when he saw the bell in Zhang Ping's hand. Since Master Ximin left ten years ago, he never thought that he could still see this bell. What's more unexpected is that the person holding this bell is actually a Han Chinese, and he looks very young and immature. Zamorasi took Zhang Ping to the next room and asked him what he had to do with the bell.
Zhang Ping's parents have believed in Buddhism since he was a child. When he was in the third year of junior high school, he was once taken to a temple to make a wish. At that time, the host was talking to a Tibetan lama. Xiao Zhang Ping looked at the old lama's Buddha beads very funny, so he quietly turned behind him and stroked the round Buddha beads.
Zhang Ping's parents were afraid that the master would be angry and scolded repeatedly. However, the old lama was not angry. Instead, he touched Zhang Ping's little head and asked, "Do you like this Buddha beads?"
It's strange to say that Zhang Ping, who is usually quite shy, said without hesitation, "Well, I like it. It's cold. It's so comfortable.
When eating fasting in the evening, the old lama specially called Zhang Ping to his own and quietly asked him to come to him after dinner, saying that he wanted to give him something very interesting.
At this time, Zhang Ping has long been yearning for some martial arts series on TV, which will naturally float. Finally, until the night, the little guy sneaked into the old lama's room without telling his parents.
Sure enough, the old lama gave him a toy, but it was a small bell with six big words on it. The old lama let Zhang Ping sit in front of him and said to him with a smile, "Son, you and I are predestined. I'll teach you another way to strengthen your body. Well, let's call him Tianxinggong."
Zhang Ping was overjoyed and nodded hurriedly. The old lama stretched out his thin palm and stroked his forehead and said a few words. There were only a few short words, but he needed some relevant actions to cooperate.
Zhang Pingyuan was relatively smart and soon mastered the mystery. The old lama waited for him to rest for a while and continued, "Son, you can come to Zhonghai Longhua Temple to find me in four years. If our fate is not over at that time, it will also be my blessing."
In the next four years, Zhang Ping practiced Tianxinggong every day. However, it has not reached the level of the master of internal skills in my mind. I just feel that my body has become very symmetrical, and I won't feel tired if I haven't slept for several days. In addition, his body feels very light, his eyes become extremely sharp, and his hands and feet are naturally very fast.
Four years later, Zhang Ping was admitted to Fuhua University as he wished. However, when he came to Longhua Temple, he was disappointed to get the news of the old lama's nirvana from the monk Xiaoyue. Xiaoyue told him that the old lama was called Xi Min. When he passed away, he told him that if he was interested, he could take the bell to Tibet to find his brother Zamorasi.
After listening to it, Zamorasi pondered for a moment, went back to the inner room and brought a package and handed it to him. He said, "This is left by the master for me. He said that if someone comes with this bell, it means that he is no longer in love. Let me forward it to you for him."
Zhang Ping opened the package, and there were two scriptures in it: the Hidden Heart Sutra and the Essence of the Big Seal. I can't help but jump wildly. Isn't this the legendary martial arts "big seal" in many novels, movies and TV dramas?
