Lu Xiaofeng was in a bad mood, so she drank two more glasses with her meal.
The feeling of drinking alone is naturally more uncomfortable.
Zhao Mingyuan drank more with him.
The two of them came together and accidentally drank too much.
Lu Xiaofeng revealed his worries. Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng were both his friends. No matter who wins or loses in this duel, he will feel very uncomfortable.
Moreover, the two of them wanted to fight to the death, but many people not only did not stop them, but instead added fuel to the flames. It was like watching a monkey show, betting on their life and death.
Lu Xiaofeng was very angry.
Zhao Mingyuan comforted him and said, "Do you think Lord Baiyun and Ximen Chuixue care about this?"
Lu Xiaofeng naturally understood that neither of them cared about these rumors.
Zhao Mingyuan didn't wait for Lu Xiaofeng to answer and continued: "Of course not!
Because they only have eyes for each other.
Others won't catch their eye at all.
Other people's words are like a breeze blowing on their face, so what impact does it have?
As for their duel, that was their choice.
In fact, every battle since their debut has involved risking their lives?
But in the end they all won.
This time, the reason why you feel uncomfortable is just because both parties are your friends.
No matter who wins or loses, you will lose a friend.
If they weren't your friend, you wouldn't be so worried about who they were playing against. Countless people have died under their swords, who have you ever cared about? "
Hearing this, Lu Xiaofeng drank a large glass of wine and said with a wry smile: "You're right, it seems I'm just a selfish bastard, I only care about my own feelings."
Zhao Mingyuan sighed: "Of all living beings, who is not selfish? This is human nature, and there is nothing to be ashamed of."
Lu Xiaofeng felt that Zhao Mingyuan was a little different from usual, more wanton and unrestrained. Looking carefully, Zhao Mingyuan's eyes were filled with confusion. It turned out that he was already drunk.
Lu Xiaofeng was ready to persuade him to rest, after all, he had important things to do in the evening.
But I heard Zhao Mingyuan suddenly say: "When I got married before, you were a little tempted in your words towards me."
Lu Xiaofeng looked very embarrassed.
After all, being told by your friends that you have had bad intentions makes you look like you are not a friend enough.
But they had just met at that time, and they were really not friends.
But, speaking of it now, it was a bit rude after all.
Zhao Mingyuan continued: "Actually, it's normal. After all, my origins are mysterious and I'm not sure what my purpose is. I have relationships with multiple forces. I'm almost like a conspirator."
Lu Xiaofeng knew that many people had thought this way.
For a moment, Lu Xiaofeng was not sure whether Zhao Mingyuan was really drunk. Could it be that he was using drunkenness to express his feelings and dispel his doubts?
But Zhao Mingyuan was holding the wine glass and continued: "I used to live in a hazy state, dissatisfied with the status quo, but unable to change, and wasted my time and wasted my youth with nothing to do.
Until I got the opportunity to change my life. After years of hard work, I finally became the person I hated most. "
Lu Xiaofeng listened quietly and thought to herself, seeing him enjoying himself all day long, it turned out that she didn't feel good at all. He casually continued: "Who did you hate before?"
"Rich people."
Lu Xiaofeng said angrily: "I also hate rich people the most!"
But I heard Zhao Mingyuan continue to say: "Do you think I have the best and most expensive food, clothing, housing and transportation, and spend all day in beautiful cars and beautiful women. Do you think I will be happy like this?"
Lu Xiaofeng opened her eyes wide. Isn't this unhappy?
"No, you can't even imagine my happiness! Hahaha..."
The expression on Lu Xiaofeng's face was indescribable, as if she had eaten shit.
But Zhao Mingyuan changed his words and said softly: "No, the candied haws I wanted when I was five, the toys I wanted when I was ten. Even now that I have grown up and got them all, the feeling I had at that time is no longer there.
I wanted to buy sweet-scented osmanthus and carry wine with me, but it turned out that it was not the same as a young man traveling.
May you leave for half your life and come back still young. After all, it’s just people’s expectations.
There are a few people who can really go through all the vicissitudes of life and remain passionate.
Even if I had to do it over again, I would choose that way and not regret it.
But what is gone is not there after all.
These are all things I once wanted but didn't get.
It's been a long time.
It's been so long that I can no longer remember my original mood.
I just remember the feeling of powerlessness that I felt when I really wanted something but couldn't get it.
However, now that I have gotten what I dreamed of, I feel nothing at all.
I have no pursuits or dreams anymore.
Do you eat all day long and wait to die?
Just like Jin Jiuling said, I got too much.
I am young now and can still enjoy these luxuries.
But what about the next few decades.
One day I will get tired of it all.
At that time, what else could I ask for in the rest of my life? "
Without waiting for Lu Xiaofeng's answer, Zhao Mingyuan continued: "Speaking of which, I envy Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng. The way they risk everything for the swordsmanship in their hearts is also very beautiful.
Unfortunately, I can't find anything that I must do. "
"Lu Xiaofeng, what do you think I should do?" Zhao Mingyuan seemed drunk and asked vaguely.
Lu Xiaofeng didn't expect to hear such words, and looked at Zhao Mingyuan's painful eyes and didn't know how to answer.
Zhao Mingyuan seems to be drunk. These are just drunken words, but perhaps drunken words are the most true words.
Moreover, this is a real problem.
Drunk or not, this is the reality Zhao Mingyuan will face.
Seeing him in such pain, Lu Xiaofeng wished he could take his own life.
If you think about it carefully, this seems to be a problem that many people need to face.
Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but think of another friend of his, Huo Xiu, the richest man in the world.
He is already the richest man in the world and still looks normal.
Lu Xiaofeng thought to herself that she must ask him how to solve this problem next time. Anyway, she also had a headache when facing this problem.
Indeed, what should Zhao Mingyuan pursue next?
More money?
A more beautiful woman?
Lu Xiaofeng knows that when money reaches a certain amount, it is just a bigger number, and making more money cannot make people truly happy.
As for more and more beautiful women.
When Zhao Mingyuan got married, Lu Xiaofeng attended. During the visit, although he only saw the bride wearing a red hijab, a veteran like Lu Xiaofeng knew just by looking at her figure that she must be a peerless beauty.
In addition, after hearing the words of the Emei Sixiu and the other little girls, and the evidence of great wisdom, Lu Xiaofeng naturally knew that she was almost the most beautiful woman in the world.
Now this Aunt Gongsun, Gongsun Lan is no less beautiful than Mrs. Zhao.
Does Zhao Mingyuan need to find a more beautiful woman?
Beauty is something that can be encountered but cannot be sought. There are not many beauties who can compare with the two of them.
Even if Zhao Mingyuan wanted to find them, he would probably only have the other two beauties mentioned by Datong Dazhi.
But, even if Zhao Mingyuan gets it, so what, does he have anything else to pursue?
Power and fame?
Zhao Mingyuan's title of "Golden Young Master" is already quite resounding. Moreover, as Zhao Mingyuan defeated the Emei master Dugu Yihe with a sword and killed the embroidery thief Jin Jiuling, his reputation would become even louder as these news spread.
Soon, everyone in the arena will know that he is an absolute master in the arena, not just a rising star.
Do you want to pursue power?
It seems that Zhao Mingyuan is not keen on this, and Lu Xiaofeng does not want him to take this path.
Just because he understands that the road to power is not that easy to walk, it is paved with blood and withered bones.
It seems that there is only one option left, and it happens to be the most suitable option for people in the world. What's even more coincidental is that Zhao Mingyuan also practices swordsmanship.
Do you want to persuade him to become swordsmen like Baiyun City Lord Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue?
Give up worldly desires and move higher in the world of kendo.
Save it, the two of them were fighting swords, and I already had a huge headache.
If we find another opponent for them, wouldn't we be asking for trouble?
In the end, Lu Xiaofeng didn't make any suggestions to Zhao Mingyuan.
When Zhao Mingyuan said it, he didn't expect Lu Xiaofeng to answer.
This is my own business, just complaining to my friends after drinking too much.
After all, you still have to walk your own road, and no one can walk it for you.
The two stopped talking and just drank one glass after another.
As that saying goes:
The good thing about wine is that it tastes bad.
The cold liquid can make people forget all the unhappiness in their hearts.
I only have one update for these two days of visiting relatives. I hope everyone can understand. Updates will be resumed as soon as possible and more updates will be added to compensate.
