Gu Yucheng raised his head and enjoyed the cool light.
But he kept thinking in his mind.
Wang Zhiwei and Li Ruosu stood side by side, feeling very embarrassed.
Wang Zhiwei started to talk about the topic, and brought up the Gao Laizi in the children's mouth.
"That, Gao Laizi, who is it?" Wang Zhiwei said awkwardly.
Li Ruosu breathed a sigh of relief and explained, "That was when I was a child, and there was a lame man in the village. He was said to be a lame man, but actually he had injuries on his body. What was his name... It seemed to be Gao Ming. I don't know the details, but in short he was a lame man. A very strange person. He was ridiculed by the children in the village for various reasons, and it was passed down later."
"These kids are just ignorant and talk nonsense, so don't worry about it." Li Ruosu explained.
Wang Zhiwei nodded.
The awkward silence returned between the two.
Just as the two were arguing, a strong wind blew up, blowing away their thoughts.
The white wind swept across the entire village.
Something was knocked over in the far corner, and a series of sounds were heard, followed by the aunt's yelling and cursing. ——In a village, it is a normal phenomenon for the head of the village to yell and scold and the tail of the village to listen.
Wang Zhiwei shrank his sleeves, raised his head and looked at Gu Yucheng, trying to wake up Gu Yucheng against the wind: "Brother Gu! Shall we go back?"
Gu Yucheng remained silent, feeling the cold wind passing by.
Li Ruosu tightened his belt and stepped forward to comfort him slowly, "Brother Gu? Brother Gu? Wake up. Are you awake? - Come back with us."
Gu Yucheng was slightly hesitant as if he had just woken up, and then nodded slowly.
Li Ruosu then picked up Gu Yucheng and carried him back to the village chief's house.
Along the way, as soon as he saw Wang Zhiwei from door to door, he opened his mouth to take care of Wang Zhiwei.
Wang Zhiwei didn't need to get close at all and started shouting from a distance.
Wang Zhiwei had to cope with it.
It seems that they are really popular.
Li Ruosu was also a little happy looking at the popular Wang Zhiwei.
However, along the way, in addition to greetings to Wang Zhiwei, there would also be one or two blind names for Gu Yucheng from time to time.
Gu Yucheng didn't pay any attention to the voice in his ears.
Now he is still thinking.
When I arrived at the village chief's door, I heard a woman's voice ringing through the door.
"Village Chief Li, just do it well and tell Nephew Wang that he can teach my boy a lesson." An aunt was sitting in front of Village Chief Li, frowning and pouting. , with a flushed face, patted the other's calloused palm with the back of her greasy and rough hand.
Village Chief Li put down his cigarette, puffed out his cheeks and slowly blew out a puff of cigarette, "I don't have the final say on this matter."
The aunt's face turned red even more, "Village Chief Li, what you said is wrong! After all, you took in Wang's nephew and let the blind man eat for nothing. We are all distant relatives, so at least you can let your nephew learn from him." With his hunting skills, he will be able to find a wife in the future. Don’t you think so? Village Chief Li."
Wang Zhiwei and Li Ruosu both looked at Gu Yucheng anxiously, but when they saw that Gu Yucheng didn't look angry at all, they felt a little more at ease.
Before Li Ruosu could comfort Gu Yucheng, Gu Yucheng said hoarsely, "Help me in."
Li Ruosu asked and looked at Wang Zhiwei, who nodded.
So Li Ruosu helped Gu Yucheng to the house.
As soon as he entered the house, Gu Yucheng felt something at his feet, so he reached out to grab it.
A cockcrow sounded immediately.
The aunt turned back, got up and twisted her bloated body to come to Gu Yucheng, pushed Gu Yucheng away, and scolded, "Oh, you blind man! What are you doing! What are you doing?! What are you catching! I gave this to the village chief Don’t touch it when it’s delivered!”
Gu Yucheng was silent for a while, then slowly said, "I'm sorry."
Li Ruosu stepped forward and complained, "Aunt Li! Why are you like this? You put the chicken at the door, but Brother Gu just wanted to move it because he was afraid of stepping on it."
Aunt Li still said stubbornly, "Then there's no need for him!"
Li Ruosu felt unreasonable and was so angry that he couldn't say anything. I had to stamp my feet.
Wang Zhiwei didn't want to speak, but as soon as Aunt Li saw Wang Zhiwei, she came forward and spread her gourd-like cheeks with a smile, "Nephew Wang is back. Come on, the village chief and I have something to do." Let me tell you."
Wang Zhiwei was actually a little angry when he was dragged by Aunt Li, but after taking a look at Village Chief Li and Li Ruosu, he still suppressed his anger. He was dragged in front of Village Chief Li.
When Li Ruosu saw this, he helped Gu Yucheng back to the house.
Li Ruosu helped Gu Yucheng sit down and comforted Gu Yucheng, "Brother Gu, don't worry about it. In fact, Aunt Li is straightforward and says everything. Don't take it to heart."
Gu Yucheng smiled when he heard this, a bit free and easy.
Gu Yucheng's heart was full of mixed emotions.
It's not because of Aunt Li's rudeness.
Finally, Gu Yucheng took out Chang Shan's Three Lives Ring, then slowly took out a piece of paper and handed it to Li Ruosu, "Please Miss Li, please help me see what this is."
Li Ruosu was surprised and even a little scared when Gu Yucheng suddenly took out a piece of paper, but he still took it.
After looking up and down, he said with a surprised tone, "There is writing on it. Although it is scrawled, you can still see clearly what is written."
Gu Yucheng's heart skipped a beat, but he pretended to be calm and quickly requested, "Miss Li, please read it to me."
Li Ruosu then told the story according to the text, "Uncle Nan, Senior Sister Xun, by the time you see this letter, I will have already gone after Senior Brother Gu. Haha - you can't think of it."
Gu Yucheng's heart ached when he heard this playful statement.
Li Ruosu felt something was wrong with Gu Yucheng's state, and quickly asked, "Brother Gu, are you... okay?"
Gu Yucheng waved his hand, "It's okay, it's okay. Just keep reading."
Li Ruosu glanced at Gu Yucheng and then said, "Although Senior Brother Gu asked me to stay in the sect, how could I listen to him.
I think it’s hard for me to explain why I insist on following Senior Brother Gu, but one thing is very clear, and that is – Senior Brother Gu helped me find meaning in my mediocre life. Brother Gu's words and deeds have influenced me a lot, so when I face a choice, I will make the same choice as Master Gu. "
"All in all, I have always thought that I am an ordinary and timid person, and I feel that it is not bad to just live my life.
But I always feel uneasy when I flatter others a lot. And when being ordered around, I feel unwilling.
Everyone I met before asked me what I wanted, but only Senior Brother Gu knew my worries and gave me respect. Just as the Book of Songs says - those who know me say that I am worried; those who do not know me say that what do I want? "
"Haha! I can also compose a poem or two.
No matter what, I feel that Senior Brother Gu at least understands me. Moreover, for so many years, I can only feel at ease when I follow Senior Brother Gu. Therefore, I must go find Senior Brother Gu. Even for this peace of mind.
Uncle Nan, you don’t have to come to me, I’ll be fine! Also, I want to tell Senior Sister Xun that Uncle Nan has been secretly drinking again these days! Senior Sister Xun, you have to take good care of me! "
Li Ruosu wanted to say something more, but the next sentence was scrawled and altered, making it difficult to read clearly.
Presumably the person who wrote the letter was confused about what to write next.
Only then did Li Ruosu realize that the whole room was eerily quiet.
Looking up, he saw that Gu Yucheng was maintaining silence.
Gu Yucheng clenched his hands tightly, with veins popping out on the back of his hands. He was silent, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a long time, Li Ruosu slowly said tentatively, "Brother Gu, Gu?"
After reading the letter, Li Ruosu had already guessed Gu Yucheng's extraordinary identity. I don't know what to do at this time.
After a long time, a sigh sounded, like the rotting darkness, filled with dust in the lament.
After the voice died down for a long time, Gu Yucheng slowly stood up.
Gu Yucheng raised his head and asked, "Don't Kuafu know the power of the sun? Is he really not afraid of death? Is he really not thinking about stopping? A person's skin is getting hotter and hotter, his heart and lungs are getting more and more anxious, but he still remains the same Keep moving forward, even if the ending is bad, but still move forward... Changshan..."
Li Ruosu was questioned by this bold and absurd question and didn't know what to do.
Gu Yucheng's eyes slowly opened, and the gray pupils were gradually replaced by gold.
"When I woke up from the bottom of the cliff, I felt the stinging sensation caused by the jagged rocks. The first thing that surprised me was not the blindness in my eyes. The first thing I felt was not the anger of revenge against the Renhuang Province, nor even the desire to take action. Will, all drowned in the numb spirit. I fell into self-doubt, until now
I haven’t come out yet…”
Gu Yucheng suddenly stepped forward.
He opened the door and walked out on his own.
Walking out of the village chief's house, he walked on the dirt road of Fengshu Village.
Gu Yucheng felt his humbleness and grandeur.
It wasn't until Gu Yucheng walked far away that Li Ruosu, Wang Zhiwei and others realized and chased him out.
Gu Yucheng walked a long way, and in Gu Yucheng's eyes, the dirt road gradually became wider and more magnificent - because Gu Yucheng's heart gradually became ups and downs.
Gu Yucheng slowly asked himself, "If something is correct, but people who make mistakes on this road, how should they redeem themselves? - If I hadn't contacted Li's store without authorization and stolen the spiritual jade, perhaps, Nan Uncle and the others don’t have to leave... but!"
"But if I go against my conscience and do nothing, what difference will there be between me and my once cowardly self? - I follow my heart, so I am ostracized by the Qian and Xiao families.
This may have been doomed from the moment I entered Taiyi Palace..."
Gu Yucheng opened his hand and glanced at Chang Shan's Three Lives Ring, a very simple and simple Three Lives Ring.
“It would be really bad to doubt even the right things.
I know Uncle Nan sacrificed himself for me, and he definitely doesn’t want to see me doubting myself. Chang Shan is the same, and so is Senior Sister Xun. "
"If I want to establish a sect, a sect that fits what I think a sect should be like, then I may make mistakes along the way and injure some people.
Even I will die... Faced with such an unknown, should I be like a declining cavalry after a failed charge, hanging my head, holding the bridle, and being a deserter in life...? "
Gu Yucheng slowly raised his head and looked at the sky. "Qu Yuan was exiled, looked at the sky and sighed, so he wrote "Heavenly Questions". The questions in his article were more than one hundred and seventy. The questions about the hardships of life are not only more than one hundred and seventy, but also more than seven hundred... …But who can solve these difficult questions?”
Gu Yucheng felt the wind gradually becoming restless, the wind in front of him, the wind behind him, the wind from all directions, the wind between heaven and earth.
They all seemed to want to give Gu Yucheng some traction.
"In the eyes of Zhuge Wuhou, helping a strong man is his justice.
But after the Northern Expedition, did he really see hope? Did he really see signs of victory?
A man covered in mud, eyes covered with wounds, and scarred, knows that what he does is for his ideals.
But with the difficulties ahead and the worries behind him, did Zhuge Wuhou really never waver? Not once shed a tear? "Gu Yucheng felt the increasingly noisy wind and felt that his bones were about to freeze into ice.
"I have seen Zhang Zhilin denying the existing sect, and I have also seen that era.
And in this Fengshu Village, there are still people who are unable to practice or do not have the conditions to practice. I am even more convinced that the path of the Supreme is correct and needs me to inherit it. But I started to wonder, can I do it? Myself? "
"Just like those who fight against the whole world on their own..." Gu Yucheng came to the village entrance. "I once thought that if I was true, I could achieve my goal as long as I kept my heart, but all this can really Arrive?"
"In front of me is a downtrodden self who will deny my whole world and the people of the world who are used to the sect's cultivation..." Fire slowly surrounded Gu Yucheng, "I... really, after waking up, I keep asking myself, what should I do? What should I do? Can I succeed by staying true to myself?"
Rongtian Forging appeared, but there were some fluctuations, some feelings...
Under the slow guidance, under the reckless expansion, the fire of the Rongtian Forging gradually reached the sky, and finally spiraled up, like a peng riding the sea, straight into the sky.
Gu Yucheng finally made up his mind.
"Chang Shan has no regrets..."
"So, I may fail. Like Confucius who walked in a hurry to restore the Zhou rites, he was looked down upon; like Ying Zheng, who unified the world but was rebelled against by the world, no one understands; like Zhuge Liang, the military prince of Shu who never completed the Northern Expedition in his life, The fate of the literati in the late Tang Dynasty, such as Li Shangyin, was in ruins..."
Gu Yucheng's spiritual sea began to stir in the wind.
"But I shouldn't regret it, let alone give up."
In Gu Yucheng's eyes, the fire spirit power became more and more real.
At this moment, Gu Yucheng really understood something that could accompany him throughout his life.
The fire grew bigger and bigger, and finally alarmed the entire Fengshu Village.
