45. Infinity (9)(1/2)

Just after the Chinese New Year, the wilderness in the suburbs was covered with cold air.

The sky is a bit gloomy and it is not a good time to go out.

Tao Mo lifted up the curtain of the car and looked at the desolate scene of the trees outside, and whispered: "Where are we going?"

Gu She held a black piece in one hand and the white piece in the other, and played chess on his own, "On the Mountain."

"What mountain?" Tao Mo remembered that Master Jin once mentioned the nearby mountains, "Langshan, Yunlinshan, Liguoshan?"

Gu Shedao: "Is there any difference?"

Tao Mo thought for a while and said, "Of the three mountains, the loong mountain is the highest, with clouds and mist, but the hillside is dangerous and the road is difficult to walk. Yunlin Mountain is a good place, but the feng shui is also good, so the tombs of the ancestors of the people of Tanyang County are there, also known as Wangui Mountain. Liguo Mountain Residence is said to be a bald mountain and has no scenery."

Gu She said: "Which mountain should you go to in your opinion?"

Tao Mo observed his expression and could not tell whether he really wanted to ask, or asked casually, and said carefully: "Actually, it's all good. Anyway, it's an outing, and all the mountain is the same."

"Let's go to Yunlin Mountain!" Gu Xiaojia suddenly shouted outside.

Tao Mo shrank his shoulders.

Gu Shedou: "Afraid of ghosts?"

Tao Mo said honestly: "I'm afraid."

"Are you in trouble?"

Tao Mo hesitated: "Yes, that's also considered there."

Gu Xiaojia laughed loudly and said, "Hahahaha... Then you have to be careful. Ghosts like people who do bad things to be scapegoats the most."

Tao Mo looked up and wanted to quietly look at Gu She's face, but found that he was looking at him.

"You, are you worried?" he asked.

Gu Shedao: "No."

Tao Mo said enviously: "You are so smart, you must think twice before doing anything. Of course, there will be no mistakes."

"Whether to lose or not has nothing to do with thinking about it."

Tao Mo said: "If I could think twice before, I might not have lost my heart."

"If you think twice about what you can change, it should not be called a bad thing." Gu Shedao.

Tao Mo was stunned and said, "What's that called?"

Gu She said slowly: "Call for repentance."

Tao Mo sighed softly, leaned against the wall of the car and closed his eyes.

Gu She turned her eyes back to the chess game and continued to play with him.

The speed of the carriage gradually stopped until the carriage vibrated. Gu Xiaojia jumped off the horse and opened the door, "Young Master, here."

Tao Mo opened his eyes, with a hazy wetness. He quickly lowered his head and walked and crawled out of the carriage.

Gu Xiaojia waited for him to get out of the car and turned around to help Gu She.

Tao Mo took the opportunity to wipe the corners of his eyes quickly with his sleeve.

"Young Master. It rained a few days ago, and the soil on the mountain was still wet. We might as well sit at the foot of the mountain." Gu Xiaojia said.

Tao Mo looked at the mountain. The mountain was steep and towering into the clouds. Standing at the foot of the mountain and looking up, her chest seemed to be breathless. "Is this... a mountain?"

Gu Xiaojia giggled and tied the horse to the trunk of a tree and said, "Do you really believe that we will go to Yunlin Mountain?"

Tao Mo laughed and said nothing.

Gu Xiaojia took out the chessboard and jars from the car, wrapped them in a bag and carried them on his back, and then took the stove and tea set.

Gu She looked at it and said, "No need to bring it."

Gu Xiaojia said: "What should I drink without a teapot?"

Gu Shedao: "There is a stream on the mountain."

Gu Xiaojia said: "The weather is cloudy and cold, so the water is probably very cold."

Tao Mo said: "We can find firewood on the mountain to burn water."

Gu Xiaojia thought for a while and said, "Then I will only bring a teapot and a teacup."

Gu Shedao: "You don't have to bring a chessboard anymore."

Gu Xiaojia said: "But don't the young master want to play chess?"

Tao Mo said: "This is also simple. Then we just draw grids on the ground and make chess pieces with stones."

Gu Xiaojia curled his lips and said, "You said it's simple."

Tao Mo hurriedly said, "Why don't I share some things for you."

Seeing that Gu Xiaojia had already climbed the mountain along the path, he threw his things into the carriage and ran up with the tea set.

Tao Mo asked loudly behind him, "What should I do with this carriage?"

Gu Xiaojia didn't look back, "Don't worry. Within a radius of hundreds of miles in Tanyang County, no one dared to touch the young master's things."

Tao Mo was shocked and thought to himself: What if someone passes by hundreds of miles away in Tanyang County? Everything in the car is treasured, and it is hard to guarantee that others will not be willing to see money. But since he dared to do this, he must be fearless, right? After a few twists of his mind, he threw this matter behind his mind.

The mountain road is narrow, rugged and slippery.

Tao Mo fell twice without taking a few steps, with mud marks on his chest and buttocks. Gu Xiaojia also fell down because he saw him falling down. Since then, the group of three people have gone silent.

When I arrived at the mountainside, I saw a pavilion like a straw shed.

There are two wooden boards on the left and right sides of the pavilion, but there are no couplets on it.

Tao Mo said in confusion: "Why are there no couplets?"

Gu Xiaojia said: "My young master doesn't write it, who dares to write it?"

Tao Mo said: "Then why didn't Mr. Gu write?"

Gu Xiaojia said again: "How can such a broken pavilion be worthy of my young master's inscription?"

Tao Mo said: "Then isn't there no couplets in this pavilion?"

Gu Xiaojia said: "This is called: Young Master Rang Qian, who dares to compete for the first place?"

"Isn't this a bit domineering?" Tao Mo murmured in a very low voice.

Gu Xiaojia heard it and glared at him, "Who said my son was domineering? My son never said that he was not allowed to write inscriptions on this pavilion, nor did he say that he wanted to write inscriptions on this pavilion. It was obvious that they were ashamed of themselves and dared not show off in front of my son."

Tao Mo hurriedly smiled.

Gu She suddenly turned around from the pavilion and asked, "What words do you think are the best words for this pavilion?"

Tao Mo waved his hand in a hurry and said, "I don't understand this."

Gu Xiaojia was surprised and said, "Young Master, do you really want to write an inscription for this pavilion?"

Gu Shedao: "It's all right."

Gu Xiaojia said: "Even if the question is, it may be stolen in two days."

Gu Shedao: "I'm not allowed to steal my writing."

Gu Xiaojia silently glanced at Tao Mo who was standing aside and was still confused, put the tea set on the small square table in the pavilion, turned his head to look for firewood.

Gu Shedai: "What do you think you should write?"

Tao Mo thought for a while and said, "It's better to write about Mo Tuoting."

"Don't do it? Don't stop..." Gu She Zhanyan smiled and said, "Not bad."

Tao Mo said: "It's a pity that I didn't bring any pen and ink."

Gu She said, "It's okay." He took out a knife from his arms, removed one of the wooden boards, and put the three words "Mo Daoting" under the book.

Tao Mo couldn't read, but he saw that his knife carved with iron and silver hooks, and his strength was strong and good.

"Okay." He praised.

Gu Xiaojia held a few pieces of firewood he picked up and sneered: "Can you tell what is good?"

Tao Mo's face turned red.

Gu She glanced at him faintly.

Gu Xiaojia shrank his head and didn't dare to say it again. He ran over to see Gu She's words. "Don't know, a good name."

Gu Shedao: "Tao Moqiu."

Gu Xiaojia said in surprise: "Hey, it's hard for you to give me a decent name."

Tao Mo said shyly: "Young Master Gu is so good at it."

Gu She was stunned.

"Didn't Mr. Gu say that he should write that he should not steal? I think that if he is not allowed to steal, he is Moji..."

Gu Xiaojia turned around speechlessly to make a fire.
