"The red clothes and the black clothes are not important. What is important is what the young man in black said. Is it possible that he is wrong?" Yan Jiaqing relaxed, put his hands on the table, and said with a leisurely smile, "Listen to what that person said, do you think it is? Whether it makes sense or not, even if you don’t agree with it, you can’t tell whether it’s right or wrong.”
Yan Jiaqing always quarreled with the old woodcutter, never mentioning the rules, but just messing around. But since Yun Zhong walked with the fisherman, he realized that a teacher is a teacher after all. No matter how much ink he has in his belly, his ability to teach and educate people Anyway, at least when speaking, he can often hit the target with one sentence and make others speechless. Only the old woodcutter, who has always been unreasonable and has an invulnerable temper, can defeat this person. Yan Jiaqing was able to obey.
"Put two or three ounces of chopped peach blossoms on top of your wine. Be careful when sipping. The peach blossoms will be slightly astringent after all, so don't mess up the taste of the wine."
Just when Yun Zhong was thinking about how to reply, the waiter brought up the two jars of wine. Although the mud seals at the mouth of the jars had been patted open, the waiter did not spill any of the wine while he was holding it, and kept it firmly. When he arrived at the flat stone, he stood up and said with a smile, "If it were somewhere else, where could I find such fresh peach blossoms, perfect for drinking wine."
Yun Zhong had never seen such a way to drink wine, but Yan Jiaqing was more knowledgeable. After thanking him softly, he lifted the wine jar and shook it slightly twice. The peach blossoms still sank at the bottom of the jar, but there was no trace of it. He floated up, moving his body slightly at most, lazily shaking his head and tail, and then fell back to the original place. He nodded with satisfaction and stopped talking to Yun Zhong. He just started drinking from the altar without using a cup at all, which was quite impressive. Heroic.
It wasn't until he drank half of the jar of wine that the peach blossoms had sunk to the bottom that Yan Jiaqing could not bear to put down the jar of wine. He said to the young man, "There is so much etiquette in cutting peach blossoms and drinking with them. This is the only place in Yizhang that has such folk customs. It has to be said." As a familiar wine saying goes, the sweet taste of peach blossom petals is the most satisfying. Firstly, the taste is so deeply hidden that it does not affect the original taste of the wine too much. Only by tasting carefully can you taste the aroma of peach blossoms. Secondly, it is related to the aroma of peach blossoms. Unlike the sweet peach blossom wine, which always makes people feel sick after two or three sips, cutting peach blossoms and soaking them in wine is the most moderate way, which can be said to be wonderful."
Yun Zhong also took a few sips of the wine slowly. When he first took it in, he didn't notice any difference. But after the wine entered his stomach for a few breaths, the flavor on his tongue was slightly sweet and slightly bitter, but not annoying. That's all he noticed. Taohua nodded in approval about the beauty of wine.
"I don't know why, but most of the people I know well around me are drunkards. It seems that they have been drinking alcohol all year round, which is why they have attracted so many drunkards." When Yan Jiaqing just spoke, Yun Zhong had already guessed this. The gentleman was planning on where to start his speech, so he didn’t ask for a riddle and said with a calm face, “No matter what word you choose, even if you choose the word “mean”, you still have to weigh it. If you don’t want to do something, take a step closer. Even if you feel disgusted, it would be better to walk all the way from beginning to end. In the eyes of future generations, this is the most pure and happy way."
Yan Jiaqing was stunned, but he never expected that the young man could figure out what he meant just a few days after entering Huzhong. He could not help but look a little pleased, but he still shook his head in denial, "The man in red and the man in black were thrown into the rivers and lakes. Inside, the man in black must have lived longer than the man in red. At least he is the best at signing up. He knows he can't be beaten and has to run away. He knows he knows he can't do anything but doesn't do it. Compared with the man in red, he makes a lot of money. People don't know. For those who are cultivators or people in the world of martial arts, this statement should be the most profound."
"But since I don't want to do it, even if I know it's reasonable, I'm afraid I won't do it. This is what I just said, why I only like red clothes."
Yun Zhongqing answered the words calmly and took a moment to drink.
"Do you know what a woman's kindness is?" Yan Jiaqing didn't accept the move, but he had no means to deal with it. What the young man said,
There really is no solution. Since someone else is pretending to be asleep, how can he wake him up? However, before the young man could respond, Yan Jiaqing spoke on his own, "In ancient times, there was a famous family, and a man from a rough background competed for the world. , the former had strong soldiers and horses, and a vast territory, but because he relied on his generals and princes, he did not bother to use what people at the time considered to be underhanded means, or he was reluctant to take action because he was concerned about old friendships. In the end, it was delayed until the person who came from a rough background became powerful. After being defeated and dying, and putting aside the thought of treating the advice of advisers as nothing, is this benevolence a woman's benevolence?"
Yun Zhong frowned.
"After clearly seizing the world, you can show great benevolence, implement benevolent policies, and love the millions of people in the world. However, because of a moment of compassion, you lose the entire country and the foundation of the country. How can you not be regarded as a woman's benevolence? But that reckless man can Sitting on the golden throne and overlooking the common people, benevolence can be achieved. Doesn't it mean that whatever the man in red thinks in his heart, there is no need to obey him in everything." Yan Jiaqing raised his head and drank the wine from the jar, his cheeks twitching. , spitting out two pieces of peach blossoms, "It is clear that I can do many better things in the future. I can do things with my fists as big as mountains. I have full wings. I can say words that I am not ashamed of. Blessing all people is like picking something out of a bag, accumulating small kindnesses." Wrong, but if you encounter something that is beyond your control, it is actually not shameful in my opinion to take a step back."
"Take a step back, even if you obey the transcendental red clothes in everything, the most important thing is to end up with the title of sacrificing your life for righteousness. Someone will write a monument for you kid, and it will be praised in the world for thousands of years, and you will win an eternal reputation before and after your lifetime. That person on Nangong Mountain "What are you thinking about those people who are waiting for you to come back to the mountain to celebrate the New Year?" At this point, the scholar was even a little annoyed. He loudly called the waiter to add more jars of wine, took a lamp, and then Eyes fixed on the young man, "Ms. Wen is still clinging to the mountains, hoping that one day she will be released from the cage and spend the rest of her years with you, or perhaps go and pray for that word at the end of the spiritual path. When I came out of the mountain, I had a strange appearance. Good little girl, you have been through so much, and half of your life has been tormented by that heart disease. If you act without any scruples and only follow your heart, and the news of your death spreads to Shan Bai Ling to mourn, how will that girl bear it? "
"Not to mention your father who is still based in Beiyanze. People must have a conscience and go on a journey in the world. They may stagnate in practice due to poor talent, but they cannot live too selfishly. I have no involvement. No worries, there are no people in the world that I care about, and even death is nothing, but you are different. When you are thinking about it, besides yourself, you also have to think about those people who are still standing in the world, waiting for you to go back and drink."
"Life is sometimes small and can only be exchanged for a meaning. Sometimes life is big, so big that it becomes a constant thought in the hearts of those who care about it. The so-called Hong Yi is actually the most ruthless to say, because he only cares about what he feels. Right or wrong, how outrageous.”
Yan Jiaqing said these words so loudly and completely without his usual indifference that the young man was dazzled.
"There's another thing I want to tell you," Yan Jiaqing said calmly, with a calm face, "At first, I originally calculated that Wen Yu should come to take over the fisherman's job and hang this yellow dragon on him, but then I But I found that you are always kind to others and treat others with sincerity. You always care about the people in the mountains, but in the final analysis, you are the most ruthless. Although it is not your fault, the thoughts of the man in red are so strong that you can no longer remember him. A person must have enough to eat when he is born, so he is more suitable to take over the post of Fisherman than Wen Yu."
Yan Jiaqing said such words coldly, then stood up and left, throwing the still troubled young man alone into the peach forest. The wind picked up hundreds of peach blossoms and hit the young man's face, which actually caused some pain. .
Fluttering words suddenly shattered everything in the lake. This was Yan Jiaqing's most outstanding method as a fisherman. Since entering the mountain, his thoughts were on the verge of falling. Everyone said it was a wake-up call, but Yun Zhong clearly noticed that Yan Jiaqing was There were some strange mistakes and omissions in his words, but his mood was still shattered by these words.
The young man struggled to stand up and hugged the civet cat. The latter didn't know what he meant, but he still let the young man pick him up. He curiously watched the confused thoughts in the young man's eyes. Finally, he slowly closed his eyes and whispered to the civet cat. He said, "Would you rather go hungry and eat only rats instead of fish in order to get rid of the rats?"
The spring night is windy and still cool.
On the way back to the tavern, Yan Jiaqing suddenly paused. Huanglong's figure appeared. For some reason, he gritted his sharp teeth and stared at Yan Jiaqing.
"I didn't lie to that boy. What I said was all good and reasonable words. Even if Wu Shuang came here, what he said would definitely be consistent with what I said. This is the principle of the world. There is no such thing as the gods and immortals. The Buddha's ability is only to follow the rules and common sense of the world, so what's wrong with that?"
Yan Jiaqing, who had transformed into the appearance of a long-robed scholar, smiled very really, and looked at Huang Long without fear and shame, "Don't point your teeth at me. He was originally a thief who looked like Huang Long, but now he is acting like the most holy master." He looked like he was arguing with me. Behind me stood the whole truth of the world. Even if the King of Heaven Pagoda landed with a hundred thousand heavenly soldiers, I was not wrong at all. I just wanted to see how that kid understood it and taught him to accept it with peace of mind. Isn't it a good thing to save you this trouble and let him save his life and listen to your old instructions?"
Huang Long looked at Yan Jiaqing for a full quarter of an hour, and finally he shook his head and tail and turned into a peaceful yellow rope again, falling on the latter's shoulders. Then the scholar became more happy and walked briskly, thinking that the peach blossom soaked wine would not quench his thirst after all, so he returned to the tavern. During the season, there will definitely be a few more jars of wine. When the young man returns from the future, he will record all the money in his account and teach him principles in exchange for drinks. It is a very cost-effective deal.
But until the waiter put out the lights and planned to close the stall for a rest, the boy didn't make any move. He just asked the waiter to go back to the tavern, take the civet cat back to the house, hand over three or two pieces of dried fish, and even if he didn't go there again, He opened his mouth, leaned against a very old peach tree, and fell asleep with his eyes narrowed.
In the empty dream, strange and strange things come and go one after another.
Chatting about two or three things.
We are almost halfway through the article, but I still want to talk about our boy Yun.
He will take the wrong path, encounter things he doesn't understand, and occasionally become a weed on the wall. He will listen to what is said if the wind blows, even though the path may not be the right one. People all make mistakes. , this kid is just an ordinary person. In the final analysis, he is just a book person made up of all the thoughts in the world.
All in all, these chapters are very depressing to write, that is, you know clearly that the most rational way of thinking may not be the way people like, but you have to succumb to it. When I first started labeling it, I added "Jiang Hu Can't Help Yourself". In fact, I have already written a lot about "I can't help myself", but I still need to write more. Regardless of whether it is a refreshing article or a work that I think has some foundation and ability, in the final analysis, I hope that after reading the book, I hope that the people in the book will be able to maintain a state of mind when encountering various adversities. When I put down the book, I can have the energy to cope with the difficulties and misfortunes at hand. , there is a high chance that things will not go as you wish in the world, and you may even encounter cold water filling your teeth, sugar cakes burning the back of your head, and suffering bad luck one after another.
Yunzhong is no exception, and neither are you or me.
The key is not the so-called praying to gods and worshiping Buddha, but that when you encounter things that you have no control over, and when you don't get what you want, you still remain innocent and content, instead of blindly resenting the unfairness of your luck in the world.
Because no matter how difficult it is, you have to grit your teeth and get on with it. Putting this aside, which is not considered a mediocre grade, I smiled and felt that the difficulty in front of me didn't seem to be that big at all. I just gritted my teeth and pushed through it. This was considered not in vain.
