"It's easy to say! For example: No matter ancient or modern, what is the pursuit of all the people in the world? There seems to be a saying: 'Man perishes for money, birds perish for food'. Chasing 'fame' and 'profit' can be described as a constant 'thought', no matter what Throughout the ages, many 'hearts of flesh' have come forward one after another, thinking day and night, and working tirelessly."
Xiang Zhong felt that this example was appropriate, and Li Dan also nodded first, and then asked further: "As Mr. Xiang said, 'constant thinking and thinking' are all determined? However, you and I both have a question, so this How can the 'thinking mind' be an unknown quantity with an impermanent solution?"
"This can also be called qualitative: 'desire for knowledge' and 'curiosity'. The actions described are normal, but the types of actions directed are endlessly different from 'unknown'."
Xiang Zhong still found the best explanation for this "thinking": "curiosity."
While Xiang Zhong and Li Dan were rubbing back and forth like no one was around, the "little tails" were completely confused by these questions and answers such as "change, change, change". They all held their breath and kept silent. Don't dare to say another word.
Unknowingly, the morning light has become brighter, and more sunshine is pouring in. The coldness in "Yue Xin Zhai" has been driven aside, and the children here are also chatting more and more in this "brainstorm". It became more and more lively.
"With such wonderful sunshine, it would be a pity for us, all of us who are young, to stay in a few studies in a mere study room. No matter how many thoughts we have, we are not in line with the good will of heaven and earth, and we remain in our weak age! I suggest that it is better to How about we go to the lakeside to continue our discussion, as the lakeside is open and comfortable, making it easier for us to develop our skills?"
As we talked about excitement, "Little Tail" who couldn't sit still thought about changing places to play. After sitting here for too long, her legs were numb. She found that if she followed the light and shadow of the sun, she would definitely not go wrong, so she secretly went to give it to her. Brother Ji Yu whispered and encouraged him, asking him to make suggestions. Ji Yu, who had just run around the lake in the morning, naturally suggested going there instead.
"That's fine! Why not, just listen to Brother Yu and let's go for a walk by the lake together. Although the old mansion is poor and shabby, we are fortunate to be near a lake. The scenery is natural and can be seen."
Li Dan got up first and led a group of children all the way to the lake. As they walked, they continued to discuss the topic just now.
"It's like 'changing feelings and changing scenery'. We are in the state of mind of inquiry when we are in the studio. It seems that we are encountering the fog of the sea of thoughts, which is difficult to understand until we break through it. Now we move to the lake, and the visual field is wide and far-reaching. We should change it. It helps to analyze the fog of the sea of thoughts, how refreshing it is! I dare to ask Mr. Xiang, which one is better than the vastness of the lake compared with the openness of the mind?"
Facing the question posed by Li Dan, Xiang Zhong felt that if he answered according to the idea of "the sky is bigger than the sea, and the human heart is bigger than the sky", it would seem to be too contemptuous of the questioner's wisdom, so he paused and thought for a moment, He raised his face and replied with a smile: "The vastness of the lake can be measured in tangible ways; the distance of thoughts can be measured in formless ways; comparing the intangible to the tangible is better than the unintentional, just like the fragrance of osmanthus and the fragrance of vegetable oil. Comparing these two fragrances , the guests are more fragrant?"
"Wonderful!" Li Dan felt that this question-and-answer question was quite accurate.
While talking, a group of six people had already walked to the lake.
Compared with the night, the beauty of the lake view is fully displayed at this time: the breeze is blowing, the waves are sparkling, and the water is so clear that you can see the big fat grass carps with black backs swimming in the water, as if they have come out of their holes, large and small. , fat and thin, just like the six children by the water, with different heights and ages, but they are a very harmonious team.
Facing this lake that almost cost him his life, Xiang Zhong was not timid at all, as if the one who was flooded last night was someone else's child.
Seeing so many fish, "Little Tail" was the most excited. Unfortunately, she didn't bring any food. She didn't have anything to make fish food, so she ran to Xiang Zhong and asked him for pecans.
"Tip, eat, sprinkle!" Xiang Zhong put his hand into his arms, pulled it out a few times, then stretched it out, spreading his hands, with a look of sincerity that he had nothing to offer.
"Besides, Yu Ding likes to eat pecans? You should go dig some earth dragons instead of asking me!"
Although Xiang Zhong felt that "Little Tail" was so ignorant, he was embarrassed to laugh at her again in front of everyone, so he thought it would be better to give her some rational suggestions.
"But, I know that Bindu can dig out Dilongga? Brother Yu, please help me!"
"Little Tail" felt that his brother Yu was omnipotent, and it was perfect for him to do such a small thing as catching earthworms.
"No problem! You come with me!"
Thank God! The difficult "little tail" was finally distracted by this "little boring thing", and now no one disturbs Xiang Zhong and Li Dan to continue discussing "big business"!
"Last night, Mr. Xiang put himself in danger and almost died. May I ask how the lake treats you, but you still praise the endless waves of the lake. You are so bold. Where does your courage come from?"
After all, he still couldn't hold it back. Li Dan still felt that as the owner, he should return to visit the risks last night. The person who was reborn after the disaster should have a deep understanding of this matter.
"To tell the truth! The lake is where it is, with no hands or feet. If nothing causes trouble, the cause of this trouble is naturally my own! I blame myself for wandering around at night, and my mistake is an accident. What's more - Some people, some things, really need an 'accident' before they have a good opportunity to change. There is a true meaning in this. I want to tell Brother Dan, but I am afraid that Brother Dan will think that I am crazy and talk nonsense. It is really too much. Don't be surprised, and allow me to keep this secret for the time being. I will find a better opportunity another day, and I will explain one or two of them to Brother Dan in detail. Today, let's talk about the major events of 'the world's past and present', how about it?"
Xiang Zhong felt that it was really hard to explain his identity as "Xinwu" in another life at this time, so he might as well hold back on the topic for now!
"Brother Xiang's open-mindedness is really rare! If the lake and fish are knowledgeable, they should be grateful to Brother Xiang for knowing him." Li Dan couldn't help but praise him again.
"Everything in the world has its origin. The existence of the lake and the existence of the fish. We are here today, enjoying the sun and the moon, and paying attention to the same kind of confusion. It is our luck! Why fear the difference between life and death? There is an ancient saying , 'Changing seas and mulberry fields', under the passage of time, we are all changing, but the speed is different: after a thousand years, the lake may be destroyed, but its stones will still be there; if we are gone, can our thoughts be passed on to future generations? Between one’s lips and teeth?”
In fact, Xiang Zhong really wanted to be a "posterity" from a thousand years later, but he really didn't want to be regarded as a madman with "water in his head", so he had to talk about it half-hiddenly.
"Easy to handle! As Brother Xiang said, tangible stones will still exist after a thousand years. If our invisible thoughts want to be passed on to people a thousand years later, why not ask a stonemason to carve our thoughts and thoughts on the stone. In this way, By using the solid body of tangible stones for thousands of years, can our invisible good theories be passed down to thousands of generations? If we do this, then our lives will have limits, and our thoughts will have no limits. Isn't it possible to die with a smile?"
Li Dan rolled up his cloud sleeves, grabbed the whole bag, and squeezed it hard with his fingers, applauding his idea in capital letters all over his body.
