Chapter 45: Inextricably linked

Inextricably linked
Just after the New Year, the suburban wilderness was still covered with cold.
The sky is a bit gloomy, not a good time to go green.
Tao Mo raised the car curtain and looked at the slack scene where the trees outside were not long. He whispered: "Where are we going?"
Gu She took black stones in one hand and white stones in the other, and played chess on his own. "On the mountain."
"What mountain?" Tao Mo remembered that Master Jin had mentioned the nearby mountain, "Cage Mountain, Yunlin Mountain, Liguo Mountain?"
Gu Shedao: "Is there a difference?"
Tao Mo thought for a while and said: "Among the three mountains, Cage Mountain is the highest and the clouds are misty, but the hillside is dangerous and the road is difficult. Yunlin Mountain is a good place, but Feng Shui is also good, so the ancestral graves of people in Tanyang County are there. , Also known as Wangui Mountain. Liguoshanju is said to be a bald mountain with no scenery."
Gu Shedao: "Which mountain should you go to in your opinion?"
Tao Mocha said that he couldn't see whether he really wanted to ask, or whether he asked casually, he considered: "In fact, it's good. Anyway, it's the same, which mountain is the same."
"Let's go to Yunlin Mountain!" Gu Xiaojia suddenly shouted outside.
Tao Mo shrank his shoulders.
Gu She said: "Afraid of ghosts?"
Tao Mo honestly said: "Afraid."
"Something wrong?"
Tao Mo hesitated and said: "Yes, there are also."
Gu Xiaojia laughed loudly: "Ha ha ha ha... Then you have to be careful, the ghost likes the one who has done the wrong thing as the dead ghost."
Tao Mo looked up and wanted to take a quiet look at Gu She's face, only to find that he was looking at himself.
"You, do you have something to lose?" he asked.
Gu Shedao: "No."
Tao Mo enviously said: "You are so smart, you must think twice about what you must do. Naturally, there will be no loss of heart."
"Loss of heart has nothing to do with thinking without thinking."
Tao Modao: "If I could think twice, maybe I would not lose heart."
"If you think twice about things that you can change, you shouldn't call it bad things." Gu Shedao said.
Tao Mo was startled, "What's that called?"
Gu She slowly said: "Call confession."
Tao Mo sighed slightly, leaning against the car wall and closing his eyes.
Gu She looked back at the game and continued to play against him.
The speed of the car gradually stopped until the carriage vibrated, Gu Xiaojia jumped from the horse immediately and opened the door, "Son, here."
Tao Mo opened his eyes with a dim wetness. He quickly lowered his head, and even walked and jumped off the carriage.
Gu Xiaojia waited for him to get off and turned to help Gu She.
Tao Mo took advantage of the opportunity to quickly wipe his eyes with his sleeves.
"Master. It rained a few days ago, and the soil on the mountain is still wet. Let's sit at the foot of the mountain." Gu Xiaojia said.
Tao Mo looked at the mountains. The mountain was steep, towering into the clouds, standing at the bottom of the mountain and looking up, as if the chest could not breathe. "This is... cage mountain?"
Gu Xiaojia giggled the horse to the trunk and said, "Do you really believe we're going to Yunlin Mountain?"
Tao Mo laughed silently.
Gu Xiaojia took out all the chessboards and cans from the car, wrapped it around his body in a bag, and then carried the stove and tea set.
Gu She looked at it and said, "No need to bring it."
Gu Xiaojia said: "Without a teapot, what would the son drink?"
Gu Shedao: "There are streams on the mountain."
Gu Xiaojia said: "It's cold and cold, and the water is very cold."
Tao Modao: "We can find firewood in the mountains to burn water."
Gu Xiaojia thought for a while and thought, "Then I only bring teapots and teacups."
Gu Shedao: "You don't need to bring a chess board."
Gu Xiaojia said: "But did the son want to play chess?"
Tao Modao: "This is also simple. Then we will draw a grid on the ground and use stones to make chess pieces."
Gu Xiaojia said with a curse: "You said it was simple."
Tao Mo busy said: "Why don't I share something for you."
Gu Xiaojia saw that Gu She had already gone up the mountain along the trail, so he threw things into the carriage and ran up the tea set directly.
Tao Mo asked loudly behind him: "What about this carriage?"
Gu Xiaojiatou did not respond: "Relax. Within a few hundred miles of Tanyang County, no one dared to move the son's things."
Tao Mo's tongue, thinking: What if the people who are hundreds of miles away in Yang County pass by? Everything in that car is a treasure, and it's hard to guarantee that others won't see the money. But he dare to do so, must be fearless? He turned his thoughts twice, and left the matter behind.
The mountain road is narrow, rugged and slippery.
Tao Mo did not even walk a few steps and even fell, with mud marks on his chest and buttocks. Gu Xiaojia also fell off because he watched him fall and gloat over. After that, all three of the party went silent.
When we reached the mountainside, we saw a gazebo.
There are two planks on the left and right of the gazebo, but there is no couplet on it.
Tao Mo wondered: "Why is there no couplet?"
Gu Xiaojia said: "My son does not write, who dares to write?"
Tao Modao: "Why didn't Gu Gongzi write?"
Gu Xiaojia said again: "How can such a broken pavilion be suitable for my son's inscription?"
Tao Modao: "Aren't there any couplets in this pavilion?"
Gu Xiaojia said: "This is called: Master Yangqian, who dares to take the lead."
"This is a bit overbearing, right?" Tao Mo whispered very softly.
Gu Xiaojia listened directly and stared at him: "Who said my son is overbearing? My son never said that he should not inscribe the pavilion, and he never said that he would inscribe the pavilion. It was clearly that they were ashamed and dared not be in my son Just show off in front of you."
Tao Mo was busy smiling.
Gu She suddenly turned back from the pavilion and asked, "What do you think of this pavilion's inscription?"
Tao Mo hurriedly waved his hand: "This, I don't understand."
Gu Xiaojia said in surprise: "Son, do you really want to inscribe this pavilion?"
Gu Shedao: "It's all right."
Gu Xiaojia said: "Even if it's a question, maybe it will be stolen in two days."
Gu She said: "I don't allow writing."
Gu Xiaojia glanced silently at Tao Mo, who was standing on the side and still had some confusion. He put the tea set on the small square table in the pavilion and turned his head to find the wood.
Gu Shedao: "What do you say is good?"
Tao Mo thought for a while and said, "Why not write Mo Pioting?"
"Mo Daoting? Mo Dao stop..." Gu Shezhan smiled, "Not bad."
Tao Modao: "Unfortunately I didn't bring pen and ink."
Gu She said: "It's okay." He took out a small knife from his arms and unloaded one of the planks, under the book: Mo Daoting.
Tao Mo was illiterate, but when he saw the iron hook and silver hook carved by his sword, he knew it was a good character.
"Okay." He lowly praised.
Gu Xiaojia hugged some of the firewood he picked up and sneered, "Can you see what is good?"
Tao Mo's face was red.
Gu She glanced at him lightly.
Gu Xiaojia shrank his head, daring not to say anything, and ran over to see Gu She's words. "Mo Daoting, good name."
Gu Shedao: "Tao Moqi."
Gu Xiaojia wondered: "Huh. It's hard to give you a decent name."
Tao Mo shyly said: "It's good for Gu Gongzi."
Gu She was stunned.
"Don't Gu Gongzi say you shouldn't write? No, I don't think it's Mo Pi..."
Gu Xiaojia turned silently to make a fire.
Tao Mo looked at Gu She's mouth slightly with a puzzled expression, "What's wrong?"
Gu She leaned over and wrote next to the word "Mo Daoting": Mo Xiao, two small characters, and then engraved.
Tao Mo tilted his head and followed his knife, saying one by one: "Gu Sheliu?"
"No. My word." Gu She put away the knife and said lightly, "Gu Xianzhi."
"Gu Xianzhi..." Tao Mo felt vaguely familiar, and could not help repeating it several times.
"Okay." Gu Xiaojia clapped and stood up. "I fetched water."
Tao Mo turned his head to find a small wooden stick, and then painted a grid on the ground.
Because of the horizontal and vertical board of Go, he only realized that the horizontal bar in the middle of the vertical direction had to be walked into the board. "Uh……"
Gu She waited a long time ago, when he silently handed him a longer piece of wood.
Tao Mo blushed brightly, took the wooden strips and continued to draw.
When he finished drawing the grid, it happened that Gu Xiaojia fetched water back. He held the teapot and looked at the fire, and suddenly looked at Tao Mo depressed and said, "How do I put the teapot on?"
Tao Mo pondered: "Carrying?"
If you can, Gu Xiaojia really wanted to pounce and punch him hard.
