Chapter 36: Genius
"What? What does it mean to not have the previous life?" Xia Xiaoman suddenly felt energetic.
"It means literally, there will be dissipation and rebirth, and a brand new soul is like a budding new birth."
"Oh~"
Xia Xiaoman thought something, it seemed that Gu Cheng regarded her as dead very early.
Gu Cheng pulled the mask. Someone passed by before and stopped talking. He bought a fried ice cream on the side of the road and ate it while walking.
Xia Xiaoman could only watch her, she wanted to eat too.
Haven't tasted what this thing tastes like yet.
Gu Cheng obviously had no idea of sharing, and there was no condition for sharing the dead soul outside, so he tasted it alone.
Xia Xiaoman said angrily: "I am old and I still eat something like this kind of child when I am old!"
Gu Cheng took a bite of the ice cream, it was hot outside, ice inside, and it was cool and sweet, and said, "Now people are more and more aware of enjoying it. I have lived for so many years before I can wait for this era. Why do you have to suffer yourself? On the contrary, you can enjoy life as a person when you open your eyes and close your eyes."
"Hmph! I'm not dead!"
"In such a beautiful world, what's the best thing about being a ghost?"
"Only you feel beautiful."
"Well, maybe because I've lived for too long."
Gu Cheng held the box and looked like a young man who was bored and bought an ice cream on the street. Humans could always make a lot of tricks on what they were eating. He had still had many things to eat. He walked around a corner and went to the old streets and alleys. He just finished eating and threw the box into the trash can. He put on a mask and seemed to have never done anything. He stopped in front of Yixuan Pavilion's shop.
There are not many shops in the old alley, and there are no internet celebrity shops and snack shops here. There are only tea, calligraphy, calligraphy and paintings, and Zhou Xiaotian's career. They only rely on word of mouth to word of mouth and word of mouth to old customers, and do not rely on traffic to attract customers. It is just right, quiet and low-key.
Lilith inside was originally bored and was shaking her tail. Seeing Zhou Xiaotian pressing the ballpoint pen, she noticed Gu Cheng's figure and her tail stopped immediately.
Zhou Xiaotian also raised his head and supported his chin with one hand and did not move. There was a guest who wanted to greet him, but after knowing that he was a fellow traveler, he was too lazy to move and sat behind the table to see what he was going to do today.
"Shenfeng Tongkao, written by Zhang Nan of the Ming Dynasty, is characterized by adjusting the weather and suppressing the four diseases of eagle, dryness, prosperity and weakness. It proposes four medicines for damage, benefit, growth and growth. It advocates that no harm is not expensive, and prescriptions for illness are strange. His theory of disease medicine later became a very important system. Ren Tieqiao of the Qing Dynasty was also deeply influenced by his theory."
Gu Cheng saw the "Shenfeng Tongkao" opened by Zhou Xiaotian, and while looking at the calligraphy and calligraphy hanging in the store, he said.
Zhou Xiaotian: "Are you sick?"
“…”
"Hahahahahahahaha!" Xia Xiaoman didn't hold back and stood beside him and laughed.
Relying on my long life, I saw that everyone wanted to teach me a few times. If an old man was almost the same, he wanted to show off at such a young age and pretended to be failed, immortality is not omnipotent.
Gu Cheng didn't care either, and scratched Lilith's chin with his fingers and teased the cat, "Aren't you playing Liu Yao? It seems like you're touching anything now."
"There are always some geniuses in the world." Zhou Xiaotian lay on the table without any modesty.
"Indeed, talent cannot be used to the fullest, and it is equivalent to waste."
Gu Cheng turned around and looked at Xia Xiaoman, who turned his head and looked away.
"Friends Yi should have had a lot of fun meeting each other. They don't talk about it, but they always have what they should have when they exchanged their experiences. Why do you seem so resistant?" Gu Cheng looked at Zhou Xiaotian seriously. This girl is really a little young. It is not easy to have such a spirituality. She is only worried that she will be taught by a mediocre master.
Perhaps it is not a bad thing for her master to die. If she is a mediocre master, she might as well read the ancient books and walk steadily on this path.
"What's there to talk about with you? I'm a genius, are you?" Zhou Xiaotian looked at him and said.
"Maybe?"
"Kun creates Gengchen, Gengyin, Yihai, and Ji Chou, how to discuss these eight characters?"
Zhou Xiaotian sat upright and acted in a stance to discuss the truth, but what he said made Gu Cheng frown.
Xia Xiaoman was waiting to see him joke.
"There is no Gengyin month in the year of Gengchen." Gu Cheng shook his head. Such a trick can deceive the layman at most.
Xia Xiaoman curled his lips.
Zhou Xiaotian was stunned for a moment, and then a smile appeared on his face, "This is Pan Jinlian's horoscope in the record. You are the first to see it at a glance. Some people are studying it carefully for a long time."
"Naked."
Gu Cheng patted Lilith on the head.
Lilith:??
It’s not what I said, you can take a photo of her!
The black cat stared at Gu Cheng resentfully.
"Lanling Xiaoxiaosheng is just a trash book writer, he knows nothing." Gu Cheng said.
Zhou Xiaotian sat behind the table and watched him tease the cat, "Take this cat away, you see you like it very much."
"Hmm?" This is Gu Cheng's reaction.
"Meow?!!!!" This was Lilith's reaction. Her ears trembled twice and she looked at Zhou Xiaotian in disbelief.
"My master gave me a dream and said not to raise this black cat."
Zhou Xiaotian said in a low voice, finally dreaming of his master, but he was in a mess. He asked her to throw away the cat and burn some of the little girl's clothes...
Although it was just a dream, she still went to buy some clothes after thinking about it for a long time. Maybe it was just a simple dream, but what if the master missed her?
"Your master cares about you very much." Gu Cheng looked around, but he didn't see the wandering souls of an old man or an old woman around him and refused to leave.
After coming out of Zhou Xiaotian's shop, Gu Cheng wandered around with the dejected Lilith.
"What are you looking for?" Xia Xiaoman, who had not moved for a long time, asked curiously.
"I'll look for if I can see her master nearby. Maybe I know him, and I can still send him a trip."
Gu Cheng walked around a long way and the surroundings were clean. Not to mention the old man and the old lady, he didn't even see a young soul.
Xia Xiaoman followed her with a calm expression and searched.
There was no result, so I had to go back.
Xia Xiaoman floated behind him, and a cat and a ghost followed Gu Cheng's footsteps.
"You are so good at being a teacher? Do you have to run like a hooligan to disturb a little girl?"
"Do you know why geniuses are called geniuses?" Gu Cheng asked.
"I can't live like you for so many years, what's the use of a genius?"
"I just lived long enough, maybe smarter than ordinary people, but I'm still an ordinary person in essence."
Gu Cheng looked back at the shop and said lightly: "Before Newton discovered gravity, fruits that had fallen from the tree for thousands of years. Before Bi Sheng invented the printing of movable type, everyone used carvings. I could not make a car for ten thousand years."
"But sooner or later, someone will find out."
"Yes, sooner or later, there will be that person to discover. Before that person appears, no one is a genius. Why doesn't Qin Shihuang summarize the three laws? Why is Li Shimin not curious about the lid of the pot that boils tea and is pushed up by steam? Well, maybe he was curious, but he was just curious."
Xia Xiaoman: "Uh..."
Haven't you done nothing for so many years? The steam engine was invented by foreigners.
"Alas, the development of the world has always been those ordinary people, with the elites of each era, and the mortals, and generations of improvement and creation. I can do nothing and have never invented anything, because I have no talent and are not a genius. My cognition can only be limited to this era. Genius is beyond the times. When I was listening to the radio decades ago, I never thought that everyone on the street now has a mobile phone. You can meet people thousands of miles away by clicking. I just took the ride-hailing ride from ordinary people. If there are miracles in the world, it must be created by humans. It is not your ghost, I am an old monster, nor that stupid witch."
Lilith: "Meow?"
"If everyone's talents can be used to the fullest, I should be traveling in space now, rather than being trapped on this broken earth and being a neighbor with a vampire." Gu Cheng has the dream of the sea of stars.
