The wind was blowing slowly, and there were three or five thatch growing on the edge of the cliff. The thatch was sparse and the leaves had fallen off. The yellow grass branches were swaying in the wind.
On the edge of this cliff, there is an old man sitting. This old man seems to be blind. He is sitting on the edge of the cliff and may fall at any time.
This old man was wearing a cloth. However, his cloth was very worn out and he didn't know how many years he had worn it. There were patches one after another on the cloth, and they were mended crookedly. It seemed that the person who mended the clothes was not good at craftsmanship. .
When the wind blew slowly, it seemed to be a bit chilly. He couldn't help but put away his clothes, as if to wrap himself up tighter so that he could stay warmer.
Li Qiye took a look, couldn't help but smile, walked over, and sat down on the edge of the cliff.
"Where is the bowl you want to eat from?" Li Qiye said to the old man calmly.
"Oh, it's lost." The old man couldn't help but shook his head gently and said, "This world is really evil. I had a broken bowl and it was stolen by someone accidentally."
"Human evil." Li Qiye smiled and said: "There are them everywhere, but they are not as evil as yours."
"Don't do evil because it's small, don't do good because it's small." The old man couldn't help but sigh and said.
Li Qiye couldn't help but laugh and said: "If these words come out of your mouth, then it's really like a dog's mouth spitting out ivory."
"Isn't it the same for Uncle Li?" The old man looked sideways at Li Qiye. His eyes, which seemed to be blind, could still be narrowed to a crack.
Li Qiye couldn't help but shook his head gently and said: "No, I am neither evil nor good. I am the only one. Good and evil are just secular judgments."
"Uncle Li, are you good or evil?" the old man asked.
Li Qiye couldn't help but smile and said leisurely: "That's who to compare with. If compared with all living beings, he is a great evil person. If compared with you, he is a great good person."
"Is Uncle Li trying to put money on his face?" the old man asking for food asked.
Li Qiye smiled leisurely and said calmly: "If I put money on my face, will you still beg for food from me? Didn't you say that one-third of an acre of your land was plowed by me? ?Since I have plowed one-third of an acre of your land, why do you come to me to beg for food? Aren’t you afraid that I will chop your head off?”
"Your uncle said this, as if I am speechless." The old beggar couldn't help but ponder.
Li Qiye said leisurely: "Uncle Zhao is so kind and the food is so delicious, then why don't you go to his house to beg for food? I often come here to beg for food."
"Uncle Zhao's food is delicious." The old man couldn't help but say, "But if you eat this food, you will have to plant more fields to pay for it."
"So, you came to me." Li Qiye said with a faint smile.
The old beggar had to admit it, nodded and said: "At least, Uncle Li, you are someone who clearly marks the price."
"Kindness is priceless." Li Qiye smiled and said leisurely: "I, a great evil person, believe that the price given by me is acceptable to everyone. You think so."
The old man who was begging for food was silent. He blew slightly and seemed to be a little chilly, so he couldn't help but tighten his clothes.
"So, I put this gold on my face, how does it go? It's a gold-lettered sign." Li Qiye said unhurriedly.
Finally, the old man begging for food said: "Although Uncle Li is a golden sign, Uncle Li has different paths and does not work together. After all, we will not be able to get along with each other."
"Then let those who share the same Dao conspire together." Li Qiye said calmly: "I don't know how similar your Dao and Uncle Zhao are."
"The goals must be the same." The old man begging couldn't help but look up. It seemed that he could see everything with his blind eyes.
"Then what?" Li Qiye said with a faint smile: "What happens after the agreement, even after you get what you want? What do you think the ending of this alliance will be?"
The begging old man couldn't help but fell silent. After a while, he said to Li Qiye: "What about Uncle Li? What if we are together with Uncle Li?"
"It should be said that you are putting gold on your own faces." Li Qiye said with a dull smile: "If I have to say it, I don't necessarily need you. When I really need it, I'm afraid, this way, too It's not up to you. What can you do in the world of thieves? Don't you think so?"
The begging old man couldn't help but smile and said slowly: "So, Uncle Li is already sure of victory."
"That's about it." Li Qiye said leisurely: "It's just how I want to deal with this situation. Should it be more perfect, or should it be almost enough?"
Having said this, Li Qiye paused for a moment, looked at the beggar old man, and said slowly: "If I want to make this situation more perfect, then if I want to make it more beautiful and need help from others, then it is just It’s just under the sky, that’s all. Above the sky, it’s up to me.”
Having said this, Li Qiye couldn't help but smile and said: "If it's almost the same, that's fine. Then, you should know the meaning of almost the same. If you just ask for the same, then you have no meaning to me. What should I do?" Come on, how can you come?"
"Uncle Li, are you willing to leave this world?" the old beggar asked.
"In this world, there should be its own cause and effect. Whether you want to give up or not, actually has nothing to do with me." Li Qiye said leisurely: "But do you have your own cause and effect? When I was about the same age, then, ask yourself, yours Where is the cause and effect?”
"Our cause and effect." The old beggar couldn't help but ponder for a moment.
Li Qiye smiled faintly and said slowly: "You have no cause and effect, everything is already doomed. If you still want to cause cause and effect again, then, first ask me if I agree, and then you have to ask God whether it is allowed. "
"Uncle Li, you are already collaborating with the thief." The old man begging for food couldn't help but say.
Li Qiye smiled indifferently and said: "When it comes to the word 'complicit', I'm afraid you don't have the qualifications, don't you think? But, what about your qualifications? When you abandon your original intention, When you give up your Taoist heart, you no longer have this qualification."
"Uncle Li, can you be sure that everything is as it was before?" the old man asking for food couldn't help but ask.
Li Qiye looked at the old man who was begging for food and said leisurely: "It should be said that I am still the same as before. How should you go on your path?"
"It seems that Uncle Li wants to force us?" said the old man begging for food.
Li Qiye leisurely rested his head on the back of his head and said calmly: "To this day, saying this is already putting gold on my face. I won't force you, nor will I force you. The road is yours." As for your feet, as for the road, how you walk is your own business."
Having said this, he paused, looked at the old man begging, and said slowly: "The greater possibility is that you can't wait for that day. It's time to come, and it's time to be wiped out. You have to rely on whether you can hold on. ?”
"It's time to come." Hearing such words, the beggar old man was not surprised, but he was still shocked. He looked at the sky and his expression became solemn.
"So, you don't have much time, and you don't have much time either." Li Qiye said slowly, with a relaxed and free expression, letting everything go as he pleased.
"Perhaps, this is an opportunity. Everyone says that life can always be found in desperate situations." The old man who begged for food said solemnly and finally said slowly.
Li Qiye couldn't help but laugh, nodded, and said: "It is undeniable that a person survives from a desperate situation. It is indeed possible. However, who will survive this desperate situation? Is it you or Uncle Zhao? Or for other people, if you survive in this desperate situation, will Uncle Zhao allow it? There is only such a small chance, and there is only one chance to survive in desperate situations. Do you think you can seize this opportunity? ? Do you think Uncle Zhao will let it go to you?"
"Well -" The old man begging couldn't help but shook his head and said firmly: "No."
"Well, it's not just that I don't know how, I'll eat you." Li Qiye smiled faintly and said leisurely: "Since winter is coming, why not eat something good? Eat For those of you who are a little fatter, you might as well gain some fat so that you can be more stable and have a good winter. Otherwise, if you don't survive this winter, you will die. Even if you survive, it will be too miserable. So, When winter comes, it needs to be replenished.”
"Uncle Li, these words are heartbreaking." The old man begging looked at Li Qiye and said slowly.
Li Qiye shrugged and said, "You know it well whether you want to punish me or not. Have you never done this kind of thing? You know it very well."
The begging old man couldn't help but remain silent. After a while, he looked at Li Qiye and said, "Then isn't Uncle Li worried? After all, it's not just us."
"Worry." Li Qiye said calmly: "So what? If a person chooses his own path, he should go on it by himself, no matter the wind or rain, if he encounters a violent storm on this road, he will still If you want people to block you, then it’s okay not to take this road.”
"Is Uncle Li the one who watched helplessly?" The old man begging gently shook his head and said, "I don't think so."
Li Qiye couldn't help but smile and said slowly: "So, am I not just sitting here? So, as you said, isn't this complicity?"
】
"Uncle Li, this is ridiculous." said the old beggar.
Li Qiye glanced at the old beggar, indifferently, and said: "If I am just moving forward, why do I need these things? I can step into the heaven and pluck out all your heads."
