As an ordinary person, we must often feel helpless in the face of powerful forces, irreversible fate, and the inability to control ourselves...
Some people choose to refuse and fight passionately, while some people choose to live in peace and contentment and spend the rest of their lives in confusion. It seems that all thinking revolves around positive or negative, right or wrong, making choices. It is always a dichotomy, and there is never a third option.
So what is the third option?
When you don't refuse or hesitate, this sounds like an incredible answer, but if you experience a period of unconscious wandering soberly, you can understand the mystery of this third option.
Mirror flower waterside pavilion, the years are peaceful.
"Miss Yu, you seem to be different from before." Qing Ruo said.
The two of them sat by the lake, watching the koi fish playing and smelling the fragrance of the lotus leaves.
"What's different?" Yu Tianqing asked.
Qing Ruo said, "Your attitude towards the young master seems not to be as rigid as before, it seems to be much softer."
Thinking of the insignificant kiss when he woke up that day, Yu Tianqing couldn't help but blush, and turned away slightly, "Really? Did I have a bad attitude towards him before?"
Qing Ruo thought for a while and said, "I can't say that my attitude is bad. I should say that I am very impatient. Especially after you met the master, you seemed to be anxious to distance yourself from the master."
Yu Tianqing sighed, "What does this have to do with Master? Besides, isn't it right for me to cut off the relationship with Xian Wuhua? I don't want to establish a different relationship with him."
Qing Ruo sighed, "But Miss Yu, haven't you noticed? No matter how you want to leave me alone, you have never left the young master."
Qing Ruo's words made Yu Tianqing feel stunned. It seemed that every time he met a vain figure at the corner of his life.
Qing Ruo continued, "As the older generation said, this is 'fate's arrangement'."
Yu Tianqing couldn't help but smile, "Is it fate?"
Many things are unexpected and many people come without thinking. If there is no fate, it is really difficult to explain their appearance. If Yu Tianqing used to choose their existence, but today's Yu Tianqing, she will not choose or refuse, because she knows that their existence cannot be changed by rejection or acceptance.
Therefore, if it is called 'fate's arrangement', it is not a bad idea.
"You're smiling, Miss Yu." Qing Ruo said with a smile, "Miss Yu, you actually have a son-in-law in your heart."
"It's hard for such a domineering person not to leave an impression on others."
"But the young master has never been so persistent with others..." Qing Ruo sighed, "The young master is different from the girl after all."
Slightly lonely, but also envious, this tone is neither concealing nor ostentatious. Just like Qing Ruo herself, she always seems to be able to find her own stance at the right place and do her part well at the right time.
Looking at Qing Ruo like this, Yu Tianqing couldn't help but feel a sense of appreciation in his heart.
Loving someone who doesn't love you is a very painful thing, but she is willing to accept her duty. This reason alone makes people feel heartache.
"Qing Ruo." Yu Tianqing said, "Why don't you find someone who can treat you differently?"
Qing Ruo lowered his head, smiled slightly, and said, "Then have you ever seen that I treat the young master differently?"
"Huh?" Yu Tianqing was slightly confused.
Qing Ruo said, "Young master treats girls differently because in his eyes, you are different. And similarly, in my eyes, you are different. Between receiving and giving, I choose To give.”
"Isn't this a lot of hard work?" Yu Tianqing said pitifully.
Qing Ruo shook her head, "It's not hard work." She asked Yu Tian Qing with a smile, "Miss Qing Ruo Wen, why don't you want to be the young master's wife, but go to a very dangerous place to practice?"
Yu Tianqing said, "Of course it's because seeking the truth is the most important thing in my heart."
"That's it." Qing Ruo said, "Young Master, to me, just like the supreme Taoism in your heart, it is the most important thing in your heart. In order to pursue the Taoism, you will naturally not think about whether the experience is hard or not. Whether it's dangerous or not, it's the same for me. When a person does what she wants to do, how can she feel it's hard or not hard?"
"Have you never regretted it?"
"No."
Listening to Qing Ruo's firm answer, Yu Tianqing suddenly felt that everything in the world has its own profound meaning. The so-called Taoist meaning originally does not lie in the Taoism itself, but in the complex and diverse human hearts.
The Jinghua Waterside Pavilion is still the same as before, quiet, beautiful and pleasing to the eye.
Xu Wuhua did not often appear in Shuixie, and the time he spent in Shuixie was not long. Occasionally, he would eat with Yu Tianqing, or sit and chat with her.
But Yu Tianqing still felt a hint of solemnity from between his brows. She has not returned for a long time, and she knows nothing about the situation in the Central Plains and the plight. Especially Shangguan Duyao, who has a complicated identity. I wonder what his intentions are?
"What? Is today's food not to your taste?" Xu Wuhua couldn't help but ask when he saw Yu Tianqing was distracted while eating.
Yu Tianqing put down his bowl and chopsticks and said, "I met Shangguan Duyao in the Bardo Realm."
Xu Wuhua was stunned for a moment and said, "Beyond the independent six realms of the Bardo Realm, it turns out that you went to the Bardo Realm."
"I'm in the cursed land..." He wanted to mention Bai Yunshen, but Yu Tianqing was worried about Bai Yunshen's identity as a divine descendant, so he hid it and only said, "I entered the bardo world from the cursed land, and I was in the middle world." I met Shangguan Duyao in the underworld, who called himself the 'Ghost Soul Collector' at the time. His cultivation is very advanced, and this person should not be underestimated."
Xu Wuhua nodded and said, "I understand."
Seeing that he seemed to have no interest, Yu Tianqing couldn't help but ask, "How is the situation going? Is everyone okay?"
Xu Wuhua said lightly, "There is nothing wrong with the situation. You have just come back. Don't pay attention to these things and have a good rest in Shuixie for a few days."
Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Yu Tianqing ate in silence, and then Xu Wuhua left Jinghua Water Pavilion.
Seeing that his expression was not as relaxed as before, Yu Tianqing couldn't help but ask Qing Ruo, "Has anything happened recently? Why does Xian Wuhua always look like he's in a hurry."
Qing Ruo originally wanted to say something, but hesitated, "Young Master has some things to deal with. It's not a big deal, it just takes time to deal with it. Miss Yu will wait patiently for a while, and when Young Master is finished, you can As usual, I am playing the piano and listening to music with the girl."
Is Yu Tianqing a person who likes to have fun and enjoy things? Qing Ruo said it easily, but with Yu Tianqing's understanding, I'm afraid things will not be simple.
