Above Tianchi, the tide is flat and the shore is wide. There is a bright moon ten miles away and only a few lights.
Xia Qing's preaching to Liu Yi was right.
The rivers and lakes are like temples, with snakes and pythons hibernating, and fish and dragons mixed together. If you accidentally step into the temple of a great god, you will be plunged into an abyss.
In Lingyuan City, people in the city said: Xia Qing regards Liu Yi as his own son. He is attentive to all Liu Yi's affairs. He is sincere in all Liu Yi's problems, saying that he is Liu Yi's adoptive father. It’s not an exaggeration.
When I saw it today, it turned out to be true!
"Oh, my boss Xia, do you really think I'm stupid? I'm not a three-year-old child. How can I say such rebellious words to others?" Liu Yi broke away from Xia Qing's hand and hugged Gong Xia with his body. Qing said playfully, "I'll just tell you about it!"
Speaking of this, Liu Yi suddenly felt a little lonely and lowered his head and said, "After all, you are my closest relative in this world. If even my closest relatives can't say some intimate words from the bottom of their hearts, how lonely will life be?" ah!".
The end of the world is cold, and the lone wild goose is flying across the lonely starry river.
Xia Qing forcibly grabbed Liu Yi and hit him on the head. Then she put her arms around the boy's shoulders, which were not too broad. She lowered her voice and changed the topic, "Humph! I forgot that you had a bunch of snot in your nose when you were looking at the North Tower. Is it time for you to beg me for wages in tears? At that time, I gave you a copper, and you regarded me as the enemy who killed your father. Now you regard me as your family, huh? "
Liu Yi immediately begged Xia Qing for mercy with a smile and said, "Oh! Yi'er has grown up and become more sensible! Who hasn't had a chance to act like a fool, right?"
Xia Qing smiled and stopped talking.
The sky was vast, and the father and son were quiet for a while and looked at the stars.
After a while, the sky became colder. Liu Yi filled some dry firewood for the fire and turned to Xia Qingque and asked, "Boss Xia, I really don't understand why you so-called experts do what you do now that you have great supernatural powers." Still have to be timid and look forward and backward? One day, I will be like the giant sea and the Yangtze River, so why should I worry about the cross-currents and filth that cannot be accommodated!"
Xia Qing chuckled, "Boy, don't you understand this? The bigger the family and the bigger the business, the more cautious you must be. At your age, you can't understand this truth. It's like you always loved wine when you were a teenager, and you always loved tea when you were middle-aged. I always love white water in my old age. No matter what age you are, what truth you realize, you still have a long way to go!"
Liu Yi said bluntly and seriously, "I don't understand!"
If you haven't reached that age, you will naturally not be able to understand what you should have at that age. Xia Qing did not criticize her harshly. He tried to explain the problem to Liu Yi from another angle. After pondering for a moment, he said, "In a broad sense, Some warriors use their strength to break through the realm, so naturally they don't care so much. Most people have many opinions, such as the heart of the Tao, the heart of the sword, taboos, hidden diseases, etc. These causes and effects lead to People who practice spiritual practice always have their own rules and regulations, which also leads to many people not being able to live as they wish."
Xia Qing paused and continued, "You know, practicing upward is like sailing against the current, and going down is like sailing with the current. No one is willing to break the precepts on impulse and ruin the hard-earned practice."
Seeing that Liu Yi was half-informed, Xia Qing simply explained patiently, "Soldiers have no constant momentum, water has no constant shape, and there is no fixed path to practice. Believe in Buddhism, worship Confucianism, worship Taoism, become a demon, practice farming, practice martial arts, or practice medicine." , work, play the piano, play cards, make alchemy, calligraphy and painting, wherever your heart is, your skills are pointing, and the way of heaven opens, you can enter."
This was one of the few things Liu Yi knew about cultivation. He was a little surprised, "Isn't it true that everyone in the world is practicing cultivation?"
"Haha, yes! Everything in the world is a practice. Boy, how can your visit to the Five Counties Pingtian not be a practice?" To prove the truth, most literati choose to enter the country with books, which to a certain extent has caused misunderstandings among the world."
"Well..., it's like if you only drink porridge every morning, others will think you only drink porridge in the morning! Right, Boss Xia."
Liu Yi's metaphor was just right and won Xia Qing's approval.
At this time, Xia Qing was no longer a restaurant owner living in a corner. She was like a knowledgeable teacher who taught everything she had seen and heard in her life, saying, "Boy, whether you are a scholar or a martial artist, when entering the country, After that, you need to be careful step by step, as if you are not careful, you may be in danger of falling into trouble."
Liu Yi was eager to learn and understand, so he immediately asked, "Boss Xia, what circumstances would cause scholars and warriors above the realm of physical things to fall into this realm?"
Xia Qing's expression was indifferent, her face was as flat as a lake, and she explained, "There are many reasons for falling into decline. For example, a person who believes in Buddhism may fall into a state of decline if he kills someone; a person who loves his harp may fall into a state of decline if his harp is broken; a righteous person may fall into a state of decline if his harp is broken. Acting evil may lead to a fall; a bloodthirsty person may fall into a state by doing good deeds; a person practicing martial arts may fall into a state by practicing literature. To put it bluntly, practice is to cultivate behavior, and the word "behavior", to put it bluntly, It’s the life creed hidden in one’s heart, and if one violates one’s own beliefs, one will naturally fall into decline.”
Xia Qing threw a stone into the pool. The stone made ripples on the huge Tianchi, and Tianchi soon returned to silence.
Xia Qing smiled at Liu Yi and said, "Besides, in the world of the world, some people are most concerned with a 'name', whether good or evil. They don't bother to put down their status to bully people who are not in line with their own strength. If they do so, they will often be punished by others." Swearing and scorning has a big impact on one's own state of mind. Of course, this is not absolute! It's like the outcome of a chess game. The final decision is only made at the end. How can you know the end from the beginning?"
After listening to this, Liu Yi had a deeper understanding of the journey of cultivation. He looked at Lang Lang's stars with a look of yearning on his face, "Hey! I really envy you people who come here! You are born to rely on the environment, come here Go and be at ease.”
Xia Qing laughed, "Everyone in the world seeks freedom, but how can there be freedom in the world? Gods and Buddhas in the heavens have precepts, so how can there be freedom in the heavens? Transformation into immortality, transformation into immortality, in the end it's just a big dream!"
The young man was full of worries, so he ignored Xia Qing's self-exclamation and asked, "Boss Xia, tell me, our industry has worked so hard and sacrificed many people's lives. Will the world today know our story?"
"Yi'er, remember, the small candle flame should be as bright as the candle flame; when you are promoted to a small official, you should disperse the dim light. A wise man will argue without making complicated words, and use more force without losing merit. This is how His reputation spreads all over the world.”
Liu Yi tasted it carefully, widened his eyes, and asked, "Boss Xia, are you saying that justice lies in the heart?"
Xia Qing looked through the water, sighed slightly, and said with a smile, "Even if they don't know, don't you still know? Don't you also know about your 'Wangnan Temple'?"
Liu Yi immediately guessed the deep meaning of Boss Xia's words, raised his hand and said, "But if you have merit, you should erect a monument, build a temple, write a book and write a biography, so that it can be passed down through the ages!"
Liu Yi was very excited, and then he flattered Xia Qing with a smile, "The road ahead will be difficult, so I need Mr. Xia to take more care of me!"
"Bah, you kid, you have such bad luck. With the dragon ball in your hand, you can practice like a soaring dragon, and the water swirls around the clouds; with the purple energy on your eyebrows, you can enlighten your mind and your spirit, and you will have endless blessings and longevity. You will get both kinds of blessings, If you work hard to understand and practice diligently, it can take as little as five years or as long as ten years, and you will definitely become a scholar in the physical realm, why are you using me?"
Xia Qing pinched her nose and said, "Master leads me in. Cultivation depends on the individual. If you want to enter the country in the future, how much you can accomplish is inseparable from your kindness, diligent study and understanding of the way of heaven!"
Liu Yi scratched his head, "Yier's future depends on the help of Dad and Boss Xia, hahaha!"
Xia Qing raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "Boy, don't flatter me. Boss Xia and I will not accept this!"
Liu Yi smiled like a flower, "It's nice to enjoy the shade under the big tree. I will stick to you, Boss Xia, for the rest of my life."
Xia Qing said angrily, "Go, go, stick with me. I will find a big shot in the world to stick to you in the future. I am not in the mood to accompany you in the world. Besides, you, Boss Xia, and I are just a guy." In the realm of things, are you content just by sticking to me?"
Liu Yi smiled evilly and said, "It's always good to be content!"
Xia Qing smiled helplessly, looking at the towering snowy mountains and silver peaks in the distance, her eyes suddenly became dazed, "Perhaps, you, Boss Xia, and I can only accompany you here!"
Liu Yi was naturally very concerned about those close to him. When Xia Qing said this, Liu Yi suddenly became nervous and asked quickly, "What's wrong? Boss Xia? Is there a hidden health problem? Or are you just complaining because you're in a bad mood recently?" Treat the disease, we can't commit suicide! Don't scare me, Boss Xia."
"What a short sight!"
Xia Qing gave Liu Yi a sharp crack, and Liu Yi grinned in pain and said bluntly, "Boss Xia, you don't look like you are sick!"
Xia Qing snorted and her expression became serious, "Boy, a few days ago you promised the elders of the Second Mountain, Seventh Village and Twelve Gangs of Chisong County two things. How do you want to solve them?"
Liu Yi was startled when he heard this, and then he drooped his head and said nothing.
"You haven't thought about it, right?" Xia Qing straightened her posture, sitting like an old pine tree, and spoke earnestly, "To the people, you have to be trustworthy in order to win over people's hearts. You can't just say something but not do it. In the end, your promise will sound like a fart. , misleading others and not telling others, and in the end, it hurts myself!"
"Um... Boss Xia, since Yi'er was young, you and your father have taught me to be true to my word and to be resolute in my deeds. Yi'er certainly remembers these two things."
Liu Yi rubbed his temples, sat upright, and said honestly, "The next day is Beiyouwan's birthday. Tomorrow morning, I will tie Beiyouwan with a big rope and soak it into the edge of Tianchi. If the water can really withstand it, Natural calamity is a good thing. If not, Yi'er has not thought about what to do! Use money? Give food? I don't think these are the most appropriate remedies."
Xia Qing glared at Liu Yi, "Let's not say whether it is the miraculous effect of Tianchi's divine water or the barrier of Emperor Xuanyuan that can help Beiyouwan avoid the catastrophe. You took away Shenlong's heart dragon ball and threw Beiyouwan into it. Tianchi, aren't you afraid that the evil dragon in Tianchi will swallow this pretty girl alive?"
Liu Yi was silent, and the young man did not think about the consequences of the unexpected situation during the day. Finally, he said lamely, "Life and death are determined by destiny, wealth is in heaven!"
Xia Qing said angrily, "Bah, you can say such irresponsible words?"
Liu Yi stuck out his tongue.
"Boy, ten months ago, you were so arrogant and arrogant in front of the elders of Ershan, Qizhai and Twelve Posts. How about it? Now you must have tasted the bitter fruit!"
Seeing Liu Yi's dilemma, Xia Qing laughed heartily, reached out and slapped Liu Yi again.
