    Shanyang is about 300 miles away from Kaifeng. Zhang Wei plans to travel 100 miles a day and arrive in Kaifeng in three days.

    Xiuzhen was really bored along the way, there were only her and the coachman in the car, and the coachman sat leisurely on the shaft of the car and drove the car, chatting with Xiuzhen every now and then.

    Zhongwen read a book quietly in the car. Since Baekhyun left, his temperament has changed a lot, and gradually he has some Baekhyun's appearance on his body.

    Along the way, they walked through villages and towns, and at night they stopped at a place called Bozhuang.

    Bozhuang is the junction of Shanyang and Kaifeng. Since it is close to the provincial capital, some shadows of Kaifeng can already be seen here.

    There is a largest inn in Bozhuang called "Kezhi Inn", Zhang Wei decided to go there to rest for one night.

    "Ke Zhi Inn" sounds a bit awkward, but it actually comes from Du Fu's Qilu.  The couplet of the guest to the inn is "The flower path has never been swept by the guest, and the Pengmen is now opened for the king."

    Ding Erkang gently recited these two couplets

    Said to Zhang Wei: "Uncle Shi, the owner of this inn should be a good person, who can make people feel like a country house in a mountain village."

    Zhang Wei said: "Well, I felt the same way as you when I stayed here for the first time. I was tempted by the name of the "Kezhi" Inn. Now its owner is now an old friend of mine.  You must live here. It just so happens that you also know each other this time, he is a hermit, he used to live in the mountains and forests after all the prosperity and prosperity, and doesn¡¯t care about common things.¡±

    Ding Erkang unknowingly let out an "oh". He has read a lot about such people in books, but Ding Erkang seems to have never really seen them in real life.

    He hurriedly said: "Where is He Fang Gaoxian, please tell my uncle clearly."

    Zhang Kui shook his head and said, "I don't even know what his last name is, so I just call him Mo Yuan. I know that he used to be a second-rank official, but later he got tired of the hustle and bustle of the officialdom, so he left the crown and came to Bo.  Zhuang lived in seclusion here and built this "Guest Inn".

    Ding Erkang asked curiously: "Since we live in seclusion, why don't we find an inaccessible place?"

    Zhang Kui laughed and said, "Is this so? You can ask him in person when you meet later."

    As soon as he entered the inn, there was no one to greet him. When Zhongwen saw that there was no waiter in the inn, he hurriedly yelled: "People, why is there no one to greet you!"

    Zhang Wei hurriedly reached out his hand to stop Zhongwen, and said: "Don't shout, it's useless to shout, this inn has no staff, you have to greet yourself!"

    After speaking, he walked to the stove and looked at it. There was still some heat in the stove, but there was no open flame.

    Zhang Wei said to Zhongwen: "There is firewood behind the door, you go and get some, let's boil water to drink first." Zhongwen hurried to get firewood, Xiuzhen asked curiously: "Grandpa, why is this inn here?"  There is not even a waiter in the shop, so what should the guests do when they come to stay?"

    Zhang Wei said: "This inn was not opened for making money. It was a place Moyuan provided for those who were on their way. If you have money, you can pay for accommodation. If you don't have money, you can get some firewood and water.  It can be used as accommodation expenses."

    Xiuzhen widened her eyes and said, "Ah, it's so good? Doesn't it mean that no one needs to pay, and everyone is willing to live for nothing."

    Zhang Wei shook his head and said: "That's wrong. From the time the inn was built until now, there has never been a phenomenon where rich people don't give money, and poor people don't work and live in vain?"

    Xiuzhen asked in surprise: "Why, don't they all know that they can live for nothing?"

    Zhang Kui pointed to a piece of paper stuck on the wall and said, "You should take a good look at what is written on it and you will know."

    Xiuzhen walked over and took a look. There was a piece of paper stuck on the wall. On the paper, it was written: "Frugality is up to people, choice is up to one's heart, I am everyone, and I am comfortable with myself."

    After reading it, Xiuzhen said to Zhang Wei: "Grandfather, can people do this with just these eight characters?"

    Zhang Wei said: "Actually, at the beginning of the inn, some people did not abide by this rule, but Mo Yuan still insisted on his idea. He wanted to turn this inn into a paradise where everyone is equal regardless of money or status.  Long, people understand that this place is a place that really provides shelter and help to passers-by. Those who lived in vain come back to make up for their money, chop more firewood, and carry more water to make up for their mistakes.  .So, this place is like a touchstone, turning everyone who settles here into gold unconsciously."

    When Ding Erkang heard this, he couldn't help clapping his hands and said happily: "Mo Yuan is really a god-man, and people's hearts are actually the most unpredictable, but Mo Yuan can measure people's hearts here."

    At this time, I heardThe man continued, "Actually, this is just the most true nature of man!"

    Ding Erkang hurriedly looked back, and saw a hale and spirited old man walking in. He was wearing a navy blue robe, with a bun loosely tied on his head, and three silvery-white beards under his chin.  .

    At this time, I saw Zhang Kui cheerfully greeted me, and shouted: "Mo Yuan, I have been waiting for you for a long time, and you finally showed up!" (Remember the website address of this website: www.hlnovel.com
