Soul Painter

The fact that Gao Fan became a monk really caused a sensation.

At least it is a sensation in the domestic cultural circles. As for foreign countries, there are many things about artists doing their own things, which is not bad. It's just that the trend of "reversing high" driven by capital in the art critic circle has gradually subsided. Fan has already temporarily 'retired from the circle'.

Then the media began to trumpet the new 'leader' of the demon faction, the talented artist Miss Ana Armas. Compared with Gao Fan who is rebellious and always causes troubles, this female painter is very quiet and her life is pure. There are only two things to do, to be alive and to paint, and it is a "creation machine" that the capital appreciates very much.

In less than half a month, Anna's work "Scenery of MIT" won a price of 23 million US dollars at an auction. It is not expensive, but compared with the superior Gaofan, there is considerable room for growth, which is very satisfying.

Ana Armas is being touted abroad.

Combined with the fact that Gao Fan became a monk, the domestic news circles can’t help but diverge their thinking. The plots of martial arts novels such as "the betrayal of the disciples caused the suzerain of the demon sect to be injured and escaped far away" have popped up. Netizens love conspiracy theories. So the news got hotter and hotter.

This directly led to the officials in charge of the cultural industry in Liao Province, especially Zen Master Miaochan, to treat Gao Fan well and not to have any accidents. Regardless of his young age, this is a well-known artist both at home and abroad, and any accidents are serious.

"I will treat him well." Miao Chan said, "It's about appropriating funds to rebuild the Daxiong Palace...?"

"We will study it at the meeting. Besides, isn't Gao Fan's agent going to donate money to build the temple?" the official asked.

"The money donated by Mr. Lawrence can be used to build a pagoda, and the reconstruction of the Daxiong Palace will not be a problem." Miao Chan said.

"Master Miaoxiang, you have obtained a treasure. Do you have construction plans for several years?" the official asked with a smile.

"It's all about the care of the motherland, and the kindness of good men and women." Miao Chan said with a smile.

...

Many reporters joined in the fun to interview Gao Fan.

Of course they were blocked one by one.

Gao Fan didn't want to talk too much about his 'monk'.

Because he didn't really want to become a monk, but just to deceive the Buddha in his inspiration.

After shaving his head, Gao Fan no longer bared his teeth at him when he saw the worms on the head of the flesh and blood Buddha, which was obviously a big improvement.

So Gao Fan didn't want to talk too much, he thought that if he talked too much, he would be heard by the Inspiration Buddha.

Then it doesn't work.

Although this is a bit deceptive, but Gao Fan himself believes that sincerity leads to wisdom, and when the heart is not sincere, at least his mouth should be strict.

But there was one person that Gao Fan had no choice but to miss.

...

Xin Wei looked at Gao Fan's bald head.

I froze for a while.

Then he burst out laughing with a 'puchi', and said while laughing, "Your head is quite round."

"Female benefactor, look at it, laugh at it, and go back." Gao Fan said helplessly, in order to put on a show, he was still holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, which he brought along from Miao Chan.

"You have become a monk, do you have a Dharma name?" Xin Wei asked curiously.

"I haven't taken the precepts yet, and the abbot hasn't given me a dharma name yet. Miaochan's disciples are all relatives. I think I should be called Qin Gao or Qin Fan." Gao Fan said.

"It's very good to be a pro-fan. Just listening to it will save all beings." Xin Wei looked left and right. In this meditation room, the sun shines in, and the dust in the air can be seen. Matched with this mountain, this temple, even if it is installed with Gaofan Such a rough soul always has a bit of Zen, which made Xin Wei feel a little restless.

"When will you return to vulgarity?" Xin Wei asked.

"The benefactor is joking, becoming a monk is a lifetime thing." Gao Fan replied, Inspiration Buddha was listening.

"I just thought you were joking." Xin Wei bit her lower lip, but she was really afraid that it was true, "I shouldn't care about you, but you are indeed very capable, really! There are so many artists in ancient and modern China and abroad, There are people who are more talented than you, but I searched through the history of the world last night and couldn’t find anything better than you!”

Hearing Xin Wei's increasingly fierce tone, Gao Fan remained silent.

"Whether you are true or not, if it is for creation, you say it is for creation. I have another thought, no matter what, I will wait for you, and I forgive you for running to become a monk without telling me. Okay?" Xin Wei's tone softened again.

Gao Fan's continued silence was not only to deceive Lingling Buddha, but also to not deceive Xin Wei.

"You, I know you won't really become a monk, but I'm afraid you will." Xin Wei shook his head and said, "If you really become a monk for the sake of creation, and you don't even want to explain it to me, then go on You will definitely suffer more and more, how can I help you? If I can't help you, what use will I be to you?"

Gao Fan lowered his head, only twirling the beads in his hands, like a self-willed and stubborn child who made mistakes.

"I've been chasing you, I'm really tired, I can't catch up." Xin Wei sighed, she brushed her hair, "I'll give you a choice, or, you go to the Civil Affairs Office with me now. Get the certificate from the bureau, or, from today on, don't come to me again!"

Gao Fan suddenly raised his head and stared blankly at Xin Wei, forgetting to turn the prayer beads in his hand.

Choosing this moment, Xin Wei took a step that would never lead to results.

She crossed the thunder pool.

It will definitely be blown to pieces.

The difference is only that he died in a slow manner, or that he was cut off with a clean knife.

At this moment, the dust is frivolous in the air. There is no wind, but the sun has given the dust enough impetus to make them dance and spin between Gao Fan and Xin Wei. With one breath, the situation that has reached the edge of the cliff will be pushed into the bottomless abyss.

However, Xin Wei has cast all his chips.

Then doomed to lose everything.

"... Amitabha." Gao Fan bowed his head and said.

A tear fell from Xin Wei's eyes, she stood up suddenly, put her arms around Gao Fan's brand new bald head, and kissed Gao Fan with a force between kissing and biting, then she turned around abruptly, her sneakers stepped on The stone road of the Zen temple, with her petite body, gradually went away.

Gao Fan kept his head down.

There was also a tear that fell gently on the floor of the Zen room.

The Buddha in the inspiration, suddenly at this moment, the head covered with flesh and insects changed into a smiling image of compassion.

...

Gao Fan sat there for a long time, then suddenly picked up the drawing board and began to draw the head of the Buddha in his inspiration.

He wrote very quickly, and soon he completely depicted the Buddha's head. At the moment when the entire Buddha's head was drawn, the bell of the Great Ku Temple suddenly rang automatically without wind, which made several monks very upset. Surrounded by curiosity, not sure what happened.

...

Gao Fan looked at the head of the Buddha on his drawing board, and the voice of "Amituofo" became clearer in his ears. He suddenly had a ridiculous thought, is he lying to the Buddha, or the Buddha is lying to him?

I'm still revising the manuscript... tens of thousands of words are up for grabs, so I can only find some fragments and put them in the new article...
