莲花楼续写_续写朱华流丹

写着玩儿的

前半部作者朱华流丹


梦女视觉,当你在小渔村捡到李莲花,i花、花唯可看


估摸着已经到了退潮之时,你提着鱼箩前来海边赶海。


你发誓你只是想拾些贝蚌鱼虾的,却怎么也没想到,老天会让你拾到一个男人。


一个浑身湿淋淋的男人。


趴倒在岸边的礁石上,乱发掩住了面容,唯见一只搭在头顶上方的手,皮肤被海水泡地微微发白,手指指甲甚至已经开始泛紫。


你不确定这是个活人还是死人。


应该是......死了吧?


你有些害怕遇上麻烦,想要假装没看见掉头溜回家,却发现这个男人的手指动了一下。


冥冥之中你似乎是感知到了什么,不由自主地上前,却发现这个男人的耳垂下竟然生有三个黑点。


你连退几步,掉头就跑,直到海滩上再也寻不到你的身影。


浪潮拍岸的声音一直在沙沙作响,却在荒无人迹的情境竟显得如此颓唐寂寥。


你又转了回来。


这次回来,你手里挽着缰绳,拉着一架木架推车,一步一步移行到男人跟前。


你将这个浑浑噩噩,不知是死是活的男人架在肩头,放置到了推车上。


这男人身形纤长瘦弱,因为身上没几两肉,方才缩在地上时看起来只有一点点,直到将他整个展开,你才发现他身材远比你要高得多,也大得多。不用工具,还真移不走他。


......说没几两肉,倒不尽然,你将他架到自己肩头上时,明显便感觉到了有什么东西正抵在你肩头,挤压着你。


直觉告诉你,那是一个人胸膛前隆起的胸肉。


没有女人的那么软,而是兼具了弹性与韧劲,极有实感地贴在你的肩背上。


你偏过头去,男人仍然像方才那样毫无知觉地靠在你背后,从这个角度上,你只能看见他苍白圆润的侧颊轮廓,和纹丝不动的漆黑睫尖。


你哭笑不得,反手将他放在了推车上。


这个男人......看着那么瘦,竟然还不是一般的有料,真是人不可貌相。


你将他放在一张干净的木床上,床上铺着干净的被褥,男人身上穿着的那件粗布灰袍早已狼藉发皱,于是你将它脱了下来。


还算知道些礼数的你贴心地避开了视线,没有刻意窥探这个人的隐私,脱完后就用被子将他的身子盖住,只露出一颗头在外边。


此时此刻,你才想起要看看他究竟长着张什么样的脸。


这是个青年男子,面容极其苍白憔悴,仿佛早已淫浸了世间所有的痛苦与沧桑,唯独神色却是一派文雅祥和,仿佛正在进行着一场谁也别想吵醒他的酣眠 。


他皮肤略带风霜,五官是却说不出地精致柔和,秀挺的鼻,上挑的眉,轻阖的眼,加上微翘的小嘴,构造成了一张线条流畅、温柔若水的面容。


你强忍着心中骤然升起的欣喜,假装若无其事地替他盖上被子,转过了头去。


你实在不敢看他,因为你怕自己会在突然而间的喜悦中,对他做出些什么来。


这个人......是我的了。


你对自己说。


惊喜过后是清醒。

俗语说的好,天上不会凭空掉馅饼,没过多久,你便明白,随随便便就能在海边捡男人,而且是这般俊俏的男人,绝非是件平平常常的事情。

男人安静的睡眠很快被一场猝不及防的高热打断了。

高热之始是寒战,浑身发抖,牙关打战,直抖得如落叶筛糠;寒战渐止,便转高热,牙关紧闭,手足抽搐。一个时辰间,他的脸色由青至紫,变了七八层颜色,你先灌姜汤,烫热酒,继而索性以巾帕浸酒,擦拭他全身,一通手忙脚乱下来,素来平静的海边小屋被闹得鸡飞狗跳,待他终于安静下来时,已至掌灯时分。

你颓然坐倒,累得连收拾东西的力气都没有,家中所有的棉被都被翻了出来,盆倒凳翻,灶台之上更是狼藉一片,你发自肺腑地扪心自问,到底为何要自找麻烦?

咬牙挣扎起身,趁天色还未黑透,赶紧将他拖出去退货要紧。

千不该万不该,不该再看他的脸__

柔和的灯影照着他线条柔和的脸,坚挺的鼻梁,长长的睫毛,惨白的脸,残樱的唇__他任由病痛折磨,此刻更已全身脱力,仿佛动一根指头就能将他碎成片片。理智再次跳出来说话,“快快将他丢出去”,可他偏偏,犯规地长得这般好看__


三天后,经历过无数次的天堂地狱,你的小屋已被搅了个天翻地覆,虚弱的男人终于颤巍巍地坐起,用唯一好用的右手和勉力配合的左手,理了理所剩不多的衣衫,绾了绾凌乱的乌发,眨了眨视线模糊的双眼,却带着神仙般的气度,安详平和地问了你三个问题:

这是哪里?

你给我喝了什么?

我,是谁?


你,仿佛被摄了心魂,机械地回答他的提问:


这里是南海之滨,天涯海角;

你喝光了我所有的草药,还有我后院种的石蒜;

你忘了自己是谁了吗?你是我海边捡来的,叫,叫,无衣。


无衣听天由命地接受了这个捡来的名字和东道主,而自打他能开口起,这小屋便仿佛换了主人。他懂烹饪,会缝补,知脉理,识药石__他用最短的时间使自己穿着得体,粗布麻衣,竹簪草饰,也被他穿出王公贵胄的高贵气质,他精通药理,知道怎样煎药才能发挥极致的药力。他将小屋上下收拾得干干净净,给自己寻个住处,与女主人可以相敬如宾地同处一室。


他自带光环,小屋因他蓬荜生辉。


他研究了你所有的草药,最感兴趣的莫过于后院的石蒜,你告诉他,这草是从后山移植来的,草倒平常,叶可入药 ,根茎剧毒,开花时倒有好听的名字,曼珠沙华,又叫彼岸花。后来待到漫山花开一片之时,已喝下不下几十斤石蒜的他,看着满山的山花烂漫,漫不经心地挠了挠鼻子,意味深长地点了点头。那时的他,应该不会再问自己是谁这类的问题。


清净寡淡的日子过的就只是柴米油盐,只可惜有点短。


一切都因那件衣衫,他来时穿的那件褴褛灰袍,本已烂得无法缝补,你只想按着那袍的尺寸,请镇上的裁缝做一件新衣,给他一个惊喜。不想不日便引发种种怪事,仿佛一举一动都被监视,家中再无宁日。终于,不请自来两位怪客,一位贵公子,一位凶刀客,他们威逼利诱,旁敲侧击,只要打听无衣的下落。你万不该多看了一眼破刃榜上,他的画像,被那公子看出端倪,百般盘问纠缠,在你忍不住就要低头,承认自己在海边乱捡垃圾,实属罪大恶极时,无衣挺身,投案自首。


两人如获至宝,跳上来一左一右扣住他脉门,将他浑身上下抖索个遍,一会儿哭一会儿笑的鸹躁鸹躁鸹躁,无衣撒手任他们折腾,全无反抗。


终于,他们满意地确信,面前全息全影如假包换的,是他们要找的钦犯,于是有商有量,该当如何锁拿进京,一个说定要点他穴道,一个谋划着该用绳子还是铁索,你至此不得不弱弱地抗议,说他还是个没有完全恢复的病人,对付他,是否用得着这般暴力。


那一位方公子立刻反对,说他是诡计多端滑不留油的老狐狸,极度危险,所说之言一字皆不可信,更兼此时恢复了几成内力,“至少五成”,凶刀客帮腔,必须绳之以法,采取极端手段。


你的小声分辩渐渐地变成了无声的呢喃,你想说的是你们是不是搞错了人,他真的是人畜无害,平日里少语寡言,家里小鸡小鸭都赖他照顾,最暴力的对象是后院的一堆木头,凶器是一把斧头。


方公子不由分说,“今日定要捉你回去,从此休想脱离本少爷视线!” 你还想论证一下这理论的实践性和可行性,可没时间了,他被拎着脖领子,揪了出去。


他们,抓走了无衣。


接下来的日子凄凄惨惨戚戚,仿佛一阵疾风暴雨之后,连上阴雨连绵不开晴的时候。家里处处弥漫着他的气息,你忍不住要逃离。


你去海边去后山,没用的,仿佛一根肋骨被抽离,你心痛难忍,举步维艰。


没人能懂得你带着一颗破碎的心回家去,却看到失而复得的男人正坐在院中喝茶时的那份狂喜,你自然要问个究竟,无衣伸个懒腰,声称自己逃命逃得累得很,已经逃到天涯海角了,他们居然还放他不过。知交故友,至此大难,竟也凉薄。言下之意,对你的不理不救也颇有微词。你刚想辩驳说那两人分明似友非敌,单薄的小院门板骤然被拍响,百号人声嘈杂,吓得两人抖衣而战。


门外是愤怒的方多病,“老狐狸,你还想跑,这里已被我的人重重包围,你快快出来受死!” 他惊惶失措,可怜兮兮地看着你,“救救我”,你更绝望,“事到如今,还有何法可以救你?”他挠了挠鼻子,“也许,还有一法可试?”他吹气般在你耳边耳语,你,羞红了脸,门板又一通噼啪,你心一横,脚一顿,点了点头。


他,慢条斯理地给自己斟了一杯茶,吹了吹杯中的浮沫,等门板安静下来才不紧不慢地向外说,“方多病,今夜我与你师母洞房花烛,私宅不得擅入,改日再请你们喝喜酒,你现在快快回去准备贺礼。”方多病在门外跳脚,“你又想胁迫良家少女?!!” 现在,压力给到你,为了拯救那即将破碎的门板,你终于勇敢地说道,“方公子,今日我与我夫君成亲,自情自愿,并非胁迫,私宅不便打扰,请速速离开。”


此语一出,万般归于沉静。你捡来的夫君不慌不忙地饮干那杯茶,志得意满地放下杯子。


你此时突然有了理解方多病的感觉。


“娘子,莫要误了吉时,我们进房去吧。”他泰然自若地挠了挠鼻子,你更确认无疑,不加思索挥拳打过去,“你,骗人,真是,狐狸!”他拢过你的手,浅笑着,“难不成,你真的不愿意?”


他手上加力,再低下头来看你,此一刻,卸去全部伪装,一眼万年地看着你,“告诉我,你,真的不愿意?”


你的挣扎一点点减弱,真的,没人,能对着这双眼睛说不,除非,TA已经瞎了。


你缴械投降了,奖励是他宽宽的肩膀,他的怀抱很温暖,他的手指很纤细,他的嘴唇很柔软__风轻轻的,空气甜甜的__


这样,又过了好久好久,他轻轻柔柔地又说,“我们进房去吧”


啊哈,现在机会终于到你,“等等,天光尚早,有些事情还是要说清楚,破刃榜,方多病,笛飞声?还有,请问夫君籍贯哪里,姓甚名谁,祖宗八代都要说说清楚,前任几名,现任几名,暗恋者几名__通通都要交代清楚才好!”


夫君一个踉跄,内里呕血数升,恨不得问“海在哪里?”


____


你和捡来的夫君终成正果,三日后,方笛二人也如约送来了贺礼,包括一条尾巴快摇断的狗,一栋踩上去吱吱呀呀的楼,后来留在小屋旁做了你夫君的娘家,呸,是夫家,再后来好像成了已婚受气男向未婚老处男吐槽撒娇的据点;笛飞声不怀好意地送了一把剑,从来日起便被挂在小屋的墙上做饰品,再未动过,以至于多少年过去,不停的有人告诉你,你的夫君曾是天下第一的剑客,你都摇头不信,因为在你看来,他用的最好的兵刃确确实实是斧头,哼,反正似他这般奸滑,随随便便想练个天下第一斧,第一锤什么的,也实在不是什么难事。


海边捡老公的故事至此告一段落,技术性过强,切忌模仿,以免自误终身,慎之,慎之。


另附夫君给出政审问题答案,若彼我你,许他几日进房?


破刃榜

附李莲花写真画像,通缉令好用过寻人启事,且四顾门曾广泛印发,节省下不小的广告开支,也算是为寻找老门主做出不小贡献;


方多病

又名方小宝,口味刁钻,极难伺候,入门条件先要磕头拜师母,否则不予晋见;


笛飞声

又名阿飞,吃的不多,脾气不好,不宜多见,天敌,方小宝;


祖宗八代

参见一品坟,污点证人,封磬


前任

Tomato Virus Protective SprayPrevention of tomato, potato and pepper leaf blights


Spraying Basics

1. It is best to use any type of spray in the early morning or the cool of evening. Do not spray when temps are above 80 degrees Fahrenheit! Your plants may "burn" or have a reaction to what you are using in excessive heat. This is known as "phytotoxicity."
2. Always perform a test on a small portion of the plant material first. Wait 24 hours to observe any negative reaction. Proceed if there is no damage.
3. Really and truly...more is not better. If you are not getting good results don't increase the strength of these remedies without testing first.
4. Target just the area you need to treat. Be careful... try not to harm the good bugs! You don't want to run off your allies.
5. When working with sprays or dusts always protect your exposed skin and face. Some of these ingredients can be very irritating to your skin, eyes and mucous membranes, especially any hot pepper sprays.
Specific Disease Controls
Apple tree scab: Grow any member of the onion family around the base of the tree. Chives work the best. You can also make a tea from chives and use as a spray on your apple trees to help protect from scab.
Brassicas: Keeping the soil pH around 7.0 to prevent club root disease.
Peach tree leaf curl: This is a common disease of peach trees. Sprays of horsetail tea, garlic (look further down the page for recipes) and seaweed can help to prevent this problem. Growing chives underneath them also helps.
Neem Oil will help prevent rust disease, black spot and can act as a general fungicide.
Potato scab: When planting your potato sets put some wilted comfrey leaves in with them to prevent scab. Also keeping the soil for your potato patch with a pH of 5 or below (acid) or a pH of 7 or above (alkaline) to prevent scab.
General Disease Controls
Apple Cider Vinegar FungicideFor leafspot, mildew, and scab
  • Mix 3 tablespoons of cider vinegar (5% acidity) with one gallon water and spray in the morning on infested plants. Good for black spot on roses and aspen trees too.
Baking Soda SprayFor anthracnose, early tomato blight, leaf blight and spots, powdery mildew,  and as a general fungicide
Sodium bicarbonate commonly known as baking soda has been found to posses fungicidal properties. It is recommended for plants that already have powdery mildew to hose down all the infected leaves prior to treatment. This helps to dislodge as many of the spores as possibly to help you get better results. Use as a prevention or as treatment at first signs of any of the diseases.

To make: Mix 1 tablespoon baking soda, 2 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil with one gallon of water. Shake this up very thoroughly. To this mix add 1/2 teaspoon of pure Castile soap and spray. Be sure to agitate your sprayer while you work to keep the ingredients from separating. Cover upper and lower leaf surfaces and spray some on the soil. Repeat every 5-7 days as needed.
Chive Spray:
For preventing apple scab and downy mildew on cucumber, pumpkin and zucchini.
To make: Put a bunch of chopped chives in a heat proof glass container, cover with boiling water. Let this sit until cool, strain and spray as often as two to three times a week.Compost and Manure Teas
Many people have success with manure tea keeping blight and other pathogens away from plant. Soak the area around plants and use as a foliar spray. Do not use on seedlings as it may encourage damping-off disease.
Fill a 30 gallon trash can with water. Let sit for 24 hours to evaporate the additives (use rain water if you can). Add about 4 shovels worth
 of manure to this and cover. Let it sit for  2-3 weeks, stirring once a day. Strain and apply as needed.
Various manures supply nutrients as follows:
  • Chicken manure: nitrogen rich: use for heavy feeders such as corn, tomatoes and squash.
  • Cow Manure: potash: use for root crops.
  • Rabbit manure: promotes strong leaves and stems.
  • Horse manure: leaf development.
Compost Tea: Make and use just the same as you would the manure tea. This is another terrific reason to compost all those prunings, grass clipping and kitchen wastes. Or you can use our HumAcid for a ready made foliar spray with all the goodness of compost!
Corn and Garlic Spray Fungus Preventative
This blend is surprisingly potent preventative spray to protect your plants.
  • To make: Gather a handful of corn leaves, clematis leaves (any kind) and as much of the papery outer leaves of garlic as you can. Process thoroughly in a blender. The mix with sufficient water to make a thin liquid. Let sit for an hour, strain and spray on plants as a preventative.
Couch Grass Rhizome Tea: for preventing mildew and fungus disease

  • To make: 
    Put a handful of fresh rhizomes in a glass pot. Pour 1 quart of boiling water over rhizomes, cover and let steep for 10 minutes. Strain, let cool and use right away.
Elder Leaf Spray: Elder leaves have fungicidal properties and may be useful against mildew and black spot diseases.
  • To make: simmer 8 ounces of leaves in 16 ounces of water for 30 minutes. Stir this thoroughly, then strain. Take 16 ounces of warm water and mix with 1 tablespoon of Castile soap. Add soap mixture to the elder water, spray as needed. Note: Set your sprayer to a coarse or large droplet setting as this mixture will tend to plug a fine setting.
Garlic Fungicide Spray: For leaf spot and mildews
  • To make: Combine 3 ounces of minced garlic cloves with 1 ounce of mineral oil. Let soak for 24 hours or longer. Strain.
  • Next mix 1 teaspoon of fish emulsion with 16 ounces of water. Add 1 tablespoon of castile soap to this.
  • Now slowly combine the fish emulsion water with the garlic oil. Kept in a sealed glass container this mixture will stay viable for several months. To use: Mix 2 tablespoons of garlic oil with 1 pint of water and spray.
Garlic Fungicide Spray 2: Fungicide and Insect repellent
Put in a blender: 1 whole head of garlic, 3 cups water, 2 Tbs canola oil, 4 hot peppers and a whole lemon. Blend until finely chopped. Steep mixture overnight. Strain through fine cheesecloth. Use at a rate of 4Tbs per gallon of water. Store unused portion in the refrigerator.

Horseradish (preventative for fungal disease)Penn State University announced in 1995 that minced horseradish holds promise in decontaminating wastewater and now says it may clean contaminated soils as well!
Penn State's center for Bioremediation and Detoxification reports that minced horseradish combined with hydrogen peroxide can completely remove chlorinated phenols and other contaminants found in industrial wastes. Experiments involve applying the mixture directly to tainted soils or growing horseradish in contaminated soil and roto-
tilling the roots just before applying hydrogen peroxide!

The cleansing properties of horseradish have been known for more than a decade, however creating a purified form has been far too expensive. This method has proved to be just as effective, but at a fraction of the cost!

Horseradish Tea: 
You can also make a tea from horseradish roots to use as a preventative spray for fungal diseases. This is especially useful against brown rot in apple trees. The white flesh of the horseradish root also contains significant amounts of calcium, magnesium and vitamin C.
To make: Process one cup of roots in food processor till finely chopped. Combine this with 16 ounces of water in a glass container and let soak for 24 hours. Strain liquid, discard the solids. Now mix the liquid with 2 quarts of water and spray.

Hydrogen Peroxide Treatment
To prevent bacterial and fungal problems on outdoor plants use hydrogen peroxide! Hydrogen peroxide will prevent the disease spores from adhering to the plant tissue. It causes no harm to plants or soil, however don't use on young transplants or direct seeded crops until they have become established. Warning: Always test on a small portion of plant tissue first to check for any negative reactions. Do not proceed if there is any damage to plant tissue. Do not substitute food grade H2O2 for the common H2O2. Spray plants with undiluted 3 percent hydrogen peroxide that you can buy most anywhere. Be sure to cover tops and bottoms of leaves. Do this once a week during dry weather and twice a week in wet weather. This works as a preventative. If you already have problems use this as a direct treatment.
Milk for Mildew 
Milk with its' natural enzymes and simple sugar structures can be used to combat various  mildews on cucumber, asters, tomato, squash and zinnia foliage. This works by changing the pH on the surface of the leaves, so they are less susceptible to  mildew. Use a 10/90% mixture of milk and water. I.E.: To make 10 ounces of finished spray use 1 oz of milk to 9 ozs. water. Thoroughly spray plants every 3 to 4  days at first sign of mildews or use weekly as a preventative measure.
Milk can also be mixed at a rate of 2 ounces milk to 18 ounces of water and used as a spray every 7 to 10 days to treat mosaic disease on cucumber, tomato and lettuce.Tomato Virus Protective Spray
To prevent the many viruses that attack tomato plants this simple remedy really works! The antitranspirant protects the plant surface against disease spores. The skim milk provides the tomato plant with calcium. A calcium deficiency is common in tomato plants.
Antitranspirants can be used to protect many plants against bacterial disease before they attack. They are harmless and will not block the pores of the plant tissue.
To make: Mix 1/2 teaspoon of antitranspirant (like Cloudcover, Wiltpruf etc.) with 8 ounces of skim milk, and 1 gallon of water. Spray plants. Clean out your sprayer when done and flush with fresh water..
NOTE: an equivalent of prepared powdered milk may be substituted for the skim milk.
Removing leaves on the lower portion of the plant may help lessen contact with disease spores and certainly won't hurt the plant.

Seedlings: Damping off disease
Always use a sterile growing medium like mixes with vermiculite and perlite for your seed starting as these should not contain the fungi that cause damping-off. Water your seedlings with warm water that has been left to sit for an hour or more to dissipate most of the chemicals that are present in tap water. Using cold water stresses the seedlings leaving them vulnerable to harmful organisms.
1. Chamomile Spray: Chamomile tea is an excellent preventative for damping-off. Use on seed starting soil, seedlings and in any humid planting area. Chamomile is a concentrated source of calcium, potash and sulfur. The sulfur is a fungus fighter. This can also be used as a seed soak prior to planting.
To make: Pour 2 cups boiling water over 1/4 cup chamomile blossoms. Let steep until cool and strain into a spray bottle. Use as needed. This keeps for about a week before going rancid. Spray to prevent damping off and anytime you see any fuzzy white growth on the soil. Chamomile blossoms can be purchased at health food stores and usually grocery stores.
2. Seaweed Spray: A seaweed spray which is so rich in nutrients and everything that seedlings require can also be used to prevent damp-off. Make a strong mixture adding 2/3 cup of kelp concentrate to 1 gallon of water, spray.
3. Horsetail Tea (Equisetum arvense)The common horsetail plant, which is very invasive, is rich in silicon and helps plants to resist fungal diseases via increasing their light absorbing capabilities. Use on peach trees to control peach leaf curl. Use on most plants to combat powdery fungi, and on vegetables and roses to control mildew. You can use this on seedlings and plants in closed environments too! Great in greenhouses! Prevents damping off. Horsetail is one of the ingredients in Golden Harvest Fertilizer.

To make:
  • In a glass or stainless steel pot, mix 1/8 cup of dried leaves in 1 gallon of unchlorinated water. Bring to a boil, then let simmer for at least 1/2 hr. Cool and strain.
  • Store extra concentrate in a glass container. Will keep for a month.
  • Dilute this mix, adding 5-10 parts of unchlorinated water to one part concentrate. Spray plants that show any symptoms of fungal type disease once every 4 days. Spray your seed starting mixtures to prevent damping off.
4. Spread finely milled sphagnum peat moss on the soil surface of your seed beds or flats.
5. The best damping off remedy: Powdered cinnamon!
Sprinkle powdered cinnamon on the soiless medium surface. Don't worry if you get cinnamon on your plants as it will not hurt the tender seedlings. We have been using this method for years with near 100% effectiveness.
