037, Physical Art

The last row of small buildings in the community are built next to the foot of the mountain, and then there is the hilly forest. From the perspective of Feng Shui, this is an inverted apartment because the mountain is on the south side of the house. Therefore, the windows of the master bedroom on the second floor here all face the backyard, and the terrace is also facing that direction.

The large mountain behind the community is now called "Nanqishan Forest Park". The place is quite large. Some valleys and peaks have a drop of hundreds of meters, and the terrain is also very steep. In many places in the forest park, small paths are built for people to enjoy and hike. Ding Qi has also visited Nanqishan Park and has also gone deep into the wild forest without roads to find the so-called Xiaojing Lake.

For this purpose, he also specially bought a set of equipment, such as hiking shoes, hiking poles, outdoor clothes, anti-puncture gloves, multi-functional backpacks. In order to prevent accidental situations such as getting lost, he also prepared ropes, knives, compass, first aid kits, regular snake medicines, and downloaded detailed satellite maps and topographic maps. In short, he spent a lot of money.

There are lakes and springs in the Nanqi Mountain Forest Park. The scenery deeper into the scenery is also good. However, Ding Qi did not find the Xiaojing Lake he was looking for. Instead, he found a lot of wild animals, including pheasants, rabbits, squirrels. It is said that there are foxes and badgers in the mountains, but Ding Qi did not see them.

He also met two groups of "explorers" in the mountain. The other party asked him which hiker association he was from and whether he had been separated from his companions. Ding Qi replied that he did not come out with the gang, but wanted to stroll around by himself. Others looked at him strangely, and he also thought those people were quite bored.

The side close to Nanqi Community is a low hill and gentle slope. The mountain gradually extends to the top of the mountain, with a good view. From a distance, there are layers of green hills. Of course, the terrain at the foot of the mountain is not neatly arranged, but protruding towards the community. The road in front of the last row of buildings in the community also has an arc shape. The small building that Zhu Shan bought in Xian happens to be in this location.

The location of this small building extends forward and is arranged in a font shape with the two small buildings on the left and right, which means that the neighbor's building happens to be parallel to his backyard.

Zhu Shanxian did not repair the wall to circle the entire area of ​​the front yard, but built a pavilion at the right corner of the front yard. The pavilion was actually two floors, with a small building slightly lower in height, and an escalator outside the pavilion could be built on the second floor. At the left corner of the front yard, a column was erected about three floors high.

The locations of the pavilion and the pillars just mark the boundary of the front yard, which is equivalent to an invisible open front yard with columns wrapped around wisteria and gourds hanging on the pavilion.

Shi Buquan pointed to the front side and said, "The dragon hid on the left and the tiger lies on the right. That's right, that's the home of District Chief Zhu."

Ding Qi wondered, "Where are there hidden dragons and creeping tigers? Why didn't I see it?"

Shi Buquan: "The pillar is a dragon, and the pavilion is a tiger."

Ding Qi: "Have you made a mistake?"

Shi Buquan: "We are on the north side of the building, looking good from the south. Turn to the pillar and stop, and District Mayor Zhu is standing at the door."

There was a SUV parked on the right side of the building. Ding Qi was not very familiar with the car. It seemed to be Volkswagen Tiguan, which should have been driven by District Chief Zhu. The place was wide enough, so he parked the car next to him. As soon as the two of them opened the door and got out of the car, Zhu Shanxian had already walked down the steps to greet him and smiled: "A Quan, long time no see! The things have been put for you, and the room is ready."

Shi Buquanqian shook hands and said, "Please trouble District Mayor Zhu!"

Zhu Sanxian shook his head and said, "Not bothering, no problem at all. Anyway, I am idle. It's rare that you can still remember me if you have something to do."

Ding Qi also walked forward and said, "Hello, District Mayor Zhu!"

Zhu Shanxian took the initiative to hold his hand and said, "Ding Qi? I have long been famous. You are a celebrity in our Jinghu City! I recently heard about your deeds. It seems that gold will shine. No matter which position you are in, this is a talent."

Ding Qi didn't know how to answer this. He didn't know District Mayor Zhu. It seemed that this District Mayor Zhu knew him. At least he had heard of many things about him, including the recent "research results" in the library of Jinghu University. Fortunately, Zhu Shanxian did not continue and invited them to come into the house for tea. Ding Qi thought he had sent the person away, but District Mayor Zhu invited him to sit in the house for a while.

There is a hall that is transparent from north to south on the first floor. There are eight screens placed at the entrance. The screen carved the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea. Bypassing the screen, we came to the hall. The furnishings were actually arranged in a pattern facing the backyard. The tea has been brewed, and it is a stew of three cups.

Zhu Shanxian is in his forties, but he looks only in his early thirties and is very energetic. Many officials of this age, including corporate leaders, often seem full of energy and in fact, they are exhausted from qi and blood. They have always been very energetic at work and are very energetic in everything they do, but their physical and mental overdrafts are consumed a lot.

But Ding Qi felt that Zhu Shanxian was obviously not in this situation, at least he was well maintained. Ding Qi was not an old doctor who was proficient in diagnosis, so how could he see these at a glance? In fact, his mentor Liu Feng also has this ability. Liu Feng can not only judge physiological characteristics, but also see a certain person's behavioral characteristics, including criminal tendencies at a glance.

Is this judgment accurate? It is very accurate, sometimes even surprisingly accurate! In a sense, Ding Qi received Liu Feng's "true teaching" and even surpassed his predecessors in some aspects.

Zhu Shanxian is very kind, without any airs of a leader, and always smiles when speaking. However, Ding Qi felt that Zhu Shanxian's temperament had an invisible style, which was not easy to describe, so it could be called an official spirit. This kind of official spirit is not a temper, but a temperament that is always needed to make decisions, make instructions, and give instructions over time.

Officials may not have the spirit of an official, and those with the spirit of an official may not be officials. However, most people who expose this temperament are leading cadres. Although it cannot be said that they are full of official identities based on this feeling, they are still inseparable.

Zhu Shanxian is just a department-level cadre. If he works in a place like a ministry in the capital, he is also an inconspicuous grassroots level. However, it is different in the place. Yuling District has a registered population of more than 600,000 and a more permanent population. Zhu Shanxian is the second-in-command, except for the district party secretary, he is the largest, and he is a leader with real power.

How could Ding Qi have this feeling or vision? No one has taught him, just because he has seen all kinds of people, and because of work requirements, he needs to observe, summarize, and summarize from various angles from outside and inside, and over time, a very intuitive impression will be formed. The same type of people often have the same temperament or characteristics, which can be seen at a glance.

Yes, it is obvious at a glance that there is no theory but practice. Long-term practice has formed the most intuitive experience. There is no need to think about it anymore and can directly draw some impressionistic conclusions.

The instructor Liu Feng also explained this phenomenon to Ding Qi. The reason is very simple. There are many people who have seen the work process and have careful observation and analysis. Over time, you will develop this ability or form such a habit. The physiognomy mentioned by the ancients is actually based on this principle. It is just to rise to a certain theoretical level and summarize various rules, which becomes the so-called physiognomy.

For example, Zeng Guofan wrote a book called "Bingjian", which specifically talks about how to know people from appearance. Physical science is a set of metaphysical theories. The rules summarized may not be correct, and some are even pure nonsense, but the principles of physiognomy are real.

Therefore, the most brilliant physiognomy is not to read many so-called physiognomy books, but to have such real observation skills and accumulation of experience, so as to reach a certain level, like a process of gradual enlightenment.

Ding Qi was very good at Zhu Shanxian's identity. Because he was good, he could observe it in his usual way. He didn't know what the disciples of the Jianghu Jue Sect usually looked like, but even if he didn't know Zhu Shanxian, he could see at a glance that he was probably a leader with real power.

Ding Qi was not only observing people, but also observing the environment. There were characters hanging on each side of the living room. On the east side was a slate, which was written by Tao Yuanming's "The Book of Peach Blossoms" by Tao Yuanming. The font of the running regular script was very beautiful, and each character was almost the size of a water chestnut. The signature at the end of the volume was titled "Shan Xian", which should have been written by this District Mayor Zhu.

Many so-called contemporary calligraphers are also members of calligraphy associations at all levels. In fact, most of them are just scholars in ancient times. Because calligraphy has now deviated from the practical writing function, contemporary calligraphers have practiced it. Ancient scholars have to write every day since childhood. When they are not well written in the script, they will be beaten by their husbands. The daily skills are different.

If you really want to be an ordinary scholar in ancient times, most of the contemporary real calligraphers are better at the artistic conception and aura of the work. The artistic conception comes from experience and vision, experience and perception, and the aura reflects the personal cultivation based on this foundation.

Ding Qi is not a calligrapher, but he has worked in the library for so long. His recent job is to verify various ancient books. Although he can't say too much, he still has an appreciation vision. Zhu Shanxian's handwriting is very beautiful, not only very skillful but also quite charming. This handwriting is already called an art work.

There is a vertical scroll hanging on the wall to the west, with a five-character poem written: "Go back to the depth of the mountains and shallows, you must be able to enjoy the beauty of the hills and valleys. Don't learn from the people of Wuling, and temporarily visit the Taoyuan." Ding Qi searched quietly with his mobile phone. This was "Sending off Cui Jiu" written by the Tang Dynasty poet Pei Di, which echoed the artistic conception of the "Peach Blossom Spring" opposite.

Each character in this poem has a dish size, and it is the same font as the one on the opposite side, and it should be Zhu Shanxian's handwriting. Small characters test their skills and large characters test their strength. They can write both large characters and small characters so beautifully, and completely maintain a consistent level. It can be seen that this District Mayor Zhu has very good calligraphy attainments.

Ding Qi couldn't help but exclaim: "Correspondent Zhu, these two characters are your own handwriting, right? It turns out that you are also a calligrapher!"

Zhu Shanxian shook his head and smiled, "I'm just having nothing to do when I'm idle, I just cultivate my sentiment. How dare I be called a calligrapher? I don't expect to be famous for it."

Shi Buquan joked, "Senior Brother Zhu, I think your official position is too small. If your official position is bigger, you can't be a calligrapher with these two characters hanging in the house. If you may become a contemporary calligrapher, you may become a master of contemporary calligraphy!"

Zhu Shanxian shook his head repeatedly and said, "I don't expect this, I don't expect this! If that's the case, it may be a bad thing. Do I still understand those tricks in the world? I can't be guarded against."

When he was outside the door just now, Shi Buquan's name was District Mayor Zhu, but when he got to the house to drink tea, he changed his name to Senior Brother Zhu. It seems that some names are only used among their own people, so there is no need for outsiders to hear them.

This two-story building has a double bathroom structure downstairs. The first floor has a living room, a kitchen, and two rooms, one of which is an ensuite with an independent bathroom. The other should be a guest bedroom, which was converted into a private small reception room and study by Zhu Shanxian. It is now a dedicated studio for stone scribs to be restored.

There is a small hall connecting the stairs on the second floor, and there is a large terrace outside. There is also a suite with an independent bathroom, and there are three rooms. The three rooms are all empty, and only the suites are tidied up and placed in furniture and beds. The original apartment of the entire small building is almost intact and has not been demolished, and there are no wall renovations. There are six bedrooms and three living rooms downstairs.

Zhu Shanxian said to Shi Buquan: "Junior brother, if you want to work on the second floor, choose an empty room and move all your things."

Shi Buquan shook his head and said, "No, the first floor is better, and it is more stable to place the workbench on the first floor. If my senior brother had originally arranged it on the second floor, I would have planned to move to the first floor."

The table on the first floor is more stable on the second floor? Ding Qi was a little stunned when he heard it. Can you feel this subtle difference? He is too picky about the work environment and is simply not a human!

Zhu Shanxian saw Ding Qi's expression and knew what he was thinking. He explained specifically: "This community is very quiet, but there are several construction sites north of the road. At night, there will be many heavy trucks passing by. You can feel the vibration after passing a ditch or accidentally blowing tires."

Then he said to Shi Buquan: "It is indeed very stable to put the table on the first floor here. I have checked the geological exploration data in Yuling District. There is the overall bedrock under our area. You can work with peace of mind."

Shi Buquan put down the teacup and stood up to the study and said, "I'll check the things from the express delivery, open the package and prepare to start work. When I'm working, don't come in and disturb me."

Ding Qi originally wanted to observe the unique skills of the stones, but unexpectedly the kid came directly to avoid disturbing. Zhu Shanxian smiled and said, "Don't worry about him, he has this temper. If Teacher Ding wants to live here today, there is another suite on the building that is cleaned up. If you don't stay here, I will stay here to accompany A Quan."

Ding Qi: "District Mayor Zhu, are you busy?"

Zhu Shanxian: "I haven't been busy lately, and I only need ten minutes to drive to the office from here. I live anywhere. My child is in college and the University of Haijiaotong University. His mother has also been transferred to Hai for work through relationships, so I can accompany him. Now I am alone at home."

Ding Qi actually wanted to stay with Shi Buquan. He was very interested in the content of "Fangwai Tuzhi" and the restoration of Shi Buquan. But first he had to go to the library class, which was indeed too far away. Secondly, he heard Zhu Shanxian's tone that the district mayor actually wanted to accompany Shi Buquan here in person, so he said goodbye and left, and added a WeChat message before leaving.

During the next period, Ding Qi suddenly became idle. He was still working every day, but he felt a little idle. Some time ago, he spent too much energy on finding clues to the secret realm of Fangwai. Now he already has clues, just waiting for the result of Shi Buquan.

I remember that mentor Liu Feng once said that some things will make people addicted unknowingly, or people's behavioral habits will be controlled by what they do.

Of course, this refers not only to illegal hobbies such as pornography, gambling, drugs, etc. For example, securities investment, watch the market rise and fall every day, and predict the trend of each stock, regardless of right or wrong, as if there is experience in need of improvement and summary. Even if you don’t look at the technical rise and fall of real-time trends, you have to analyze the fundamentals of each company, international and domestic policy changes, etc.

Before you know it, it is difficult for people to get out of their minds when they fall into it. They are in a state of constant circulation and pursuit. There are always things that attract your mind. In fact, in most cases, what you do every day is meaningless. The reason why people get stuck in it is difficult to get out is that there are always new things that attract the minds, such as the daily trend of stocks and the rise and fall of the market.

If the person is suddenly forced to stop contacting these things, he will feel at a loss or even inexplicably anxious. It is like a modern person who forgot to bring his mobile phone when he goes out. Nowadays, many people always like to browse their mobile phones intentionally or unintentionally. This is probably the same mentality, not just because of the boredom of fragmented time.

Ding Qi's mentality some time ago was similar, but it was also different. Last year, he encountered such a thing, and once he kept thinking about what people live for. Later, he no longer thought about this problem, but focused on solving the mysterious unknown in this world. Now that he was suddenly interrupted, Ding Qi also felt that he didn't know what to do for a moment.

Fortunately, he is good at self-adjustment, so he should do more work and visit more doctors at Boci Medical to make more money. After all, in order to find "Da Chishan" and "Xiaojing Lake" some time ago, his expenses were not small.

I don’t know when Shi Buquan will repair the scrolls, or interpret the contents of "Fangwai Tuzhi". According to Shi Buquan, in short, you won’t think about it within ten days and half a month. Whether it can be completely repaired depends on the actual situation. Even if it is just interpreting part of the content, it will take some time to wait.

During this period, Ding Qi sorted out all the rare ancient scrolls donated by Zhang Jinlin in the 302 warehouse. After the "Fangwai Tuzhi" was found and transferred to the bag and replaced, his purpose had actually been achieved. Shi Buquan had already told him that there was no problem that the things transferred to the bag were checked and repaired. He once again reported his latest discovery to the library leaders.

These seven volumes of "The Lotus Sutra" with historical biography are another important research result for libraries. This may not be considered social news, but it once again alarmed many people in related fields.
