When Gu Can finished crying and said those words, the woman's head was lowered and her whole body was shaking. She didn't know whether it was sadness or anger.
Chen Ping'an gently put down his chopsticks and called out softly, "Gu Can."
Gu Can immediately wiped away her tears and said loudly: "Yes!"
Chen Pingan said slowly: "I will beat you, scold you, and tell you the truths that I have figured out, the truths that make you feel that they are not right at all. But I will not ignore you, and I will not just leave you.
you."
Chen Pingan never turned his head, and his voice was not strong, but his tone was firm. It seemed as if he was saying to Gu Can, but more like saying to himself, "If I leave one day, it must be the one in my heart."
The hurdle has been crossed. If I can't get over it, I will stay here, at Qingxia Island and Shujian Lake."
Gu Can burst into tears and smiled, "Okay! Keep your word, Chen Ping'an, you have never lied to me!"
Chen Pingan suddenly said: "Then we may make an exception today."
Gu Can's heart suddenly rose to his throat. His body, which had just relaxed slightly, became tense again, and his heartstrings were even more so.
Chen Ping'an said: "On the way here, I told you that at the dinner table, I would only listen to you and I would not say it anymore. But after eating this bowl of rice, I felt that I had some strength again, so I planned to talk about it again, but it's still the same.
The rule is, I say, you listen, and if you want to say something later, it is my turn to listen. No matter who is speaking, the person listening, the person speaking or listening, don't be impatient."
Gu Can smiled brightly, scratched his head and asked, "Chen Ping'an, can I go back to the table? I haven't eaten yet."
Chen Pingan nodded, "Eat more, now is the time for you to grow taller."
Gu Can wiped his face and walked to the original position. He just moved his chair and moved it closer to Chen Pingan. He was afraid that Chen Pingan would regret it, turn around and leave the house and Qingxia Island.
, then he can stop Chen Pingan faster.
Then Gu Can ran to fill a bowl of rice by himself. After sitting down, he started to lower his head to eat the rice. Ever since he was a child, he liked to imitate Chen Ping'an. He ate like this and held his sleeves like this. At that time, it was freezing cold.
In the winter, two paupers, one big and one small, who have no friends, like to wrap their sleeves with their hands to keep warm. Especially after building a snowman, the two of them will wrap their sleeves together, shiver together, and then laugh and laugh at each other.
.When it comes to the ability to curse and hurt others, Gu Can, who had two runny noses at that time, was already much better than Chen Pingan, so it was often Chen Pingan who had nothing to say to Gu Can.
Chen Pingan glanced at Gu Can, then turned his head and said to the woman: "Aunt, if there is another child lingering outside the door today, will you still open the door and give him a bowl of rice? Will you still follow him deliberately?
He said, this bowl of rice is not given for free, but must be repaid with the money from selling medicinal herbs?"
The woman carefully considered the preparation.
Chen Ping'an thought to himself and said, "I don't think I know how to do it anymore."
"Of course, I don't think Auntie is wrong. Even if we leave aside the environment of Shujian Lake, and even if Auntie didn't do this that time, I don't think Auntie did something wrong."
"So I will never forget that bowl of rice in my life. It also gave me, Chen Ping'an, a little peace of mind. I felt that I was not the beggar my mother told me not to be. Instead, I owed money to my aunt first, and then I had to eat it."
After dinner, I will definitely be able to pay it back."
The woman turned her head and wiped the corners of her eyes.
Chen Pingan asked calmly: "But Aunt, have you ever thought that without that bowl of rice, I would never give that loach to your son? You may still be living in Mud Bottle Lane now, and you feel that it is very difficult."
Poverty is a difficult life. Therefore, good will be rewarded with good and evil will be punished with evil. We still have to believe in it. We cannot just believe that good will be rewarded with good and forget that evil will be rewarded with evil when we are living a stable life today."
"What I said today, do you think it's right?"
The woman still wept silently and did not say yes or no.
She was afraid that no matter what she said today, it would be bad for her son Gu Can's future.
So she would rather not say a word.
Chen Pingan understood this, so even when Gu Can told the woman about her choice regarding the little loach, Chen Pingan still didn't have any resentment.
If you should be grateful, be grateful for the rest of your life.
Whatever happens later, whether it is right or wrong, cannot cover up the earliest kindness. Just like a heavy snowfall in my hometown, no matter how thick the snow is on the dirt road of Mud Vase Lane, after the spring comes, it is still the same Mud Vase Lane.
The familiar road at the door of every house in the lane.
The only difference is that Chen Pingan has gone a long way and learned not to impose his own principles on others.
That's why he was willing to listen carefully to all Gu Can's teachings and all the inner thoughts of the little slug at the dinner table today.
Chen Ping'an squeezed out a smile and said, "Don't worry, Auntie, I won't force Gu Can to learn from me. There's no need to do this. I don't have the ability. I just want to try and see if I can do something, something that Gu Can and I can do today."
They all think it is 'right'. I will stay here and I will not delay Gu Can's protection of you, nor will I ask you to give up your hard-won wealth."
Chen Pingan asked: "Is it okay?"
The woman looked hesitant, but finally nodded with difficulty.
Chen Ping'an just sat like that, without picking up the pot of Wu Ti wine on the table or taking off the sword-raising gourd from his waist. He said softly: "Tell Auntie and Gu Can some good news. Although Uncle Gu is dead, in fact
...It’s not really dead. He is still alive because he has become a ghost, but this is a good thing after all. I came to Shujian Lake this time because he took a big risk and told me that you are not here.
'Everything is worry-free'. That's why I'm here. I don't hope that one day, because of Gu Can's actions, your family of three finally had a chance to be reunited, and one day it suddenly disappears. My parents
They all once said that Uncle Gu was the man in the alleys near us who was most worthy of my aunt. I hope that Uncle Gu, a good man from Mud Bottle Alley back then, who could write beautiful Spring Festival couplets, would be nothing like
Farm men, men who are more like scholars, are also sad."
The woman covered her mouth and burst into tears.
This time, it is the most sincere and the most irrelevant thing.
Chen Pingan said slowly: "Aunt, Gu Can, plus me, the three of us have all suffered a lot from others' unreasonableness. We are not those who have no worries about food and clothing since we were born. We are not those who
As long as you think about it, you can be a well-educated family. There will be times in this life when my aunt and I are almost unable to survive. Aunt must be alive only for Gu Can, and I am alive to give my parents some air. We are both
I had to grit my teeth to get through it. So we know better what the word "not easy" is. Having said that, at this point, Gu Can, the youngest, is better than the two of us after leaving Mud Bottle Alley.
This is even more difficult, because at this age, he is already living an even more difficult life than me and his mother. Because no matter how poor my aunt and I are, and no matter how hard our lives are, we are still not like Gu Can, who has to live every day.
What I’m worried about is death.”
"But this does not prevent us from asking 'why' when life is the most difficult, but no one will come and tell me why, so maybe after we think about it, we will often get slapped again tomorrow. After a long time, we will
I will not ask why anymore, because thinking about these things is of no use at all. When we are trying to survive, it seems that if we think a little more, it is all wrong, ourselves, others, and the world is wrong. The world gives me a punch, and I rely on it
Why not give the world a kick? Everyone who has been here seems to have become the unreasonable person he was back then, and is less willing to listen to other people's reasons, because he will also become indifferent and always feel that if he is soft-hearted, he will not be able to hold on to the present.
I'm even more sorry for the hardships I suffered in the past! Why did the school teacher prefer children from rich families? Why did my parents have to be looked down upon by the neighbors? Why could my peers afford paper kites? I could only watch from the sidelines.
Wait, why do I have to work so hard in the fields while so many people are enjoying the happiness at home, and when I meet them on the road, they don’t even look at me? Why do I have to work so hard for others to have it as soon as they are born?
Oh, that person doesn’t know how to cherish it? Why can other people’s families be reunited every Mid-Autumn Festival?"
"I don't know why this is the case. I don't know what it was like a hundred years ago or ten thousand years ago, and I don't know whether the world has changed for the better or for the worse. I have read a lot of books
, I know some truths, but the more I know, the less sure I am that the truths I have come up with are definitely correct and will definitely make myself and the people around me live a better life.
Before I got here, I thought I could live a better life by being with a little girl. But after seeing Gu Can, I thought maybe I was wrong. That little girl could live a better life just by being with me.
Better, not necessarily because I taught her those principles to make her life easier and better."
"Who doesn't want to live, live well, and think that every tomorrow will be better than today? I thought about it too, when I was in Mud Bottle Alley, on the way to Sui Academy, to Old Dragon City, to Xuanxuan
Mountain, to Tongyezhou, to Ouhua Paradise, and on the way to my hometown, I thought about it all the time! But there is no highest truth in the world, there should always be the lowest right and wrong, right? Even in order to survive, we must do
There are many, many things that have to be done, but there is always something right and something wrong, right?”
Gu Can stopped his chopsticks and fell into deep thought.
The woman looked at Chen Pingan, then at Gu Can, "Chen Pingan, I'm just a woman who has never read and doesn't know how to read. I don't understand so much, don't think so much, and can't care about so much. I
I just want Gu Can to live well, and my mother and I to live well. It is also because we came here that we have this opportunity today. We will live until you, Chen Pingan, tell our mother and father that my husband, Gu Can’s father, is still alive, and that
An opportunity for family reunion, Chen Ping'an, can you understand what I say? Don't you blame me for my long hair and short knowledge?"
Chen Pingan nodded and said: "It's understandable, I won't blame aunt."
The woman looked into Chen Ping'an's eyes. She poured herself a glass of wine, drank it in one gulp, poured another glass, and drank it again. "You come to see Can'er. No matter what you said, Can'er will be very happy."
, I want to have a drink, I want to have a drink too, we are all happy when you tell us this news."
The woman poured a third glass of wine, and after finishing it, she said with tears in her eyes: "I see you Chen Pingan, you have grown taller, grown up, and are safe. Auntie wants to drink a glass of wine, so I will do it for your parents."
I feel happy."
Chen Ping'an picked up the jug, poured himself a glass of wine, and drank it.
————
In the high-rise building of Chishui City, Cui Chan tutted and said, "You have long hair but short knowledge? This woman from Mubo Alley is not so powerful. No wonder she can partner with Liu Zhimao and teach a guy like Gu Can."
While Chen Pingan followed the two carriages into the city, Cui Dongshan had been pretending to be dead, but when Chen Pingan showed up to meet Gu Can, Cui Dongshan had actually opened his eyes.
Everything after that, like Cui Chan, Cui Dongshan saw it with his eyes and heard it with his ears.
Cui Chan smiled and said: "What Chen Pingan said is just in vain. Even if they are both from Mu Ping Alley, they both know the taste of suffering at first. But now Gu Can and Chen Pingan are two completely different people, not only in terms of different positions
That's all, and how they view the world...the fundamental context is very different. Chen Pingan can empathize with Gu Can, that's just because Chen Pingan has taken a longer path, but Gu Can has not. For him,
It is said that from his hometown Mu Ping Lane to Shu Jian Lake, there is the whole Jianghu and the world. What's more, Gu Can has such a nature, likes to get into trouble, and is naturally prone to extremes. Not to mention Chen Ping'an, even Gu Can's father Gu Tao,
Now standing in Chen Pingan's position, he can't control Gu Can's temperament. The interesting part is that Gu Can's extremeness made him have a deep affection for Chen Pingan, so he said the sentence "You"
Even if you beat me to death, I will never fight back.' This is what this devil incarnate is saying in his heart. How rare is it? Chen Pingan knows that, so he will suffer even more. Chen Pingan even heard about Liu Xianyang, the dying man back then.
, before he died, Liu Xianyang had no thoughts of blaming Chen Pingan, but just said to him, 'Chen Pingan, I don't want to die, I really don't want to die,' so Chen Pingan is even more painful now."
"Human nature is like this. A frog at the bottom of a well will complain. The farther a person leaves the bottom of the well, any truth he says to the people below will be empty talk to those who are still at the bottom of the well. Because in the heart
Deep down, I will keep telling myself that those principles of yours are nothing but snow, and should not be listened to by people wallowing in the mud. If you listen to them, if you really listen to them, you are courting death. But Chen Ping'an has already realized this."
"So what was said on the way to Gu Can's mansion and what was said at the dinner table after eating that bowl of rice are completely different. It's a pity that Gu Can was still too young when he was in Mud Bottle Alley, and he didn't have any true feelings.
He had clearly seen Chen Pingan's situation at his age, and he had never seen with his own eyes the suffering and suffering that Chen Pingan suffered during his long journey. What Gu Can saw in his eyes was that Chen Pingan was carrying a sword on his back.
After getting a jade pendant from Little Loach, Chen Pingan understood so many truths. As for why Chen Pingan was able to reach this point, he didn't understand, and this child might not be willing to really understand it. On the other hand, Chen Pingan was willing to
If you think about it more and more, you can only make the mess more and more confusing. If the two people were turned upside down and their positions reversed, Chen Pingan, with Gu Can's character, would have gone a long way and stayed behind.
Gu Can on Qingxia Island is the character of Chen Ping'an, and he managed to survive. Today is not a dead end. But if this is the case, we won't be sitting here at all."
Cui Chan said to Cui Dongshan: "Actually, your husband has done quite well."
Cui Dongshan said with a straight face, "Can you still see beautiful things in your old dog eyes?"
Cui Yi didn't take it seriously and said with a smile: "The most beautiful thing Chen Ping'an did on this trip to Qingxia Island is the two words, the four words, that you, the little brat, said to me, are just human feelings.
The two characters above "draw the sword"... cut and encircle."
"On the building boat, first take out the remaining common ground between Chen Pingan and Gu Can and place it in front of them. Otherwise, Chen Pingan will have lost on the building boat, and you and I can leave this place.
Chi Shuicheng. That is to test the assassin first, not only to understand the people of Shujian Lake as much as possible, but also to finally tell Gu Can that the assassin should be killed wherever he is, and Chen Pingan is willing to listen.
Gu Can's own principles. Once Chen Pingan elevates his principles too high and deliberately places himself at the highest moral level in an attempt to influence Gu Can, then Gu Can may directly feel that Chen Pingan is no longer the same person he used to be.
Chen Ping'an, everything is over."
"After getting off the boat, place the piece of jade pendant used to worship the saint in the Confucian Temple in front of Liu Zhimao, who is a Nascent Soul monk and has a high level of vision, so that Zhenjun Jiejiang does not dare to come out and disturb the situation."
"When you get to the dining table, after eating, take out the woman who is Gu Can's mother. Don't let her interfere too much with you and affect Gu Can."
"Otherwise, it will be just a mess. Adding Chen Ping'an to it will only make it more chaotic."
Cui Dongshan sneered: "Even if it is like this, is it useful? Isn't it still a dead end?"
Cui Chan nodded and said: "But as long as Chen Ping'an can't get over the hurdle in his heart, whatever he does next will be a new knot in his heart. Even if Gu Can is willing to bow his head and admit his mistake, so what? After all, so many innocent people will die in vain, like
The lingering ghost has been outside Chen Pingan's heart, knocking on the door hard, shouting injustice, day and night, questioning Chen Pingan's... conscience. The first difficulty is whether Gu Can is willing to admit his mistake. The second is
The second difficulty is how Chen Pingan can sort through so many truths that he has read in books, heard from others, and figured out by himself, and find out the foundation of his own truth. The third difficulty is that
After knowing this, will you realize that you are actually wrong? Will you be able to stick to your heart? The fourth difficulty is how Chen Pingan does it. The most difficult thing is three or four. The third difficulty is that Chen Pingan is destined to not be able to pass it.
"
Cui Dongshan directly asked Chen Pingan's last concern, "The fourth difficulty?"
Cui Chan seemed to be being mysterious and said: "The difficulty is that there are countless difficulties."
Cui Dongshan sneered in return.
Cui Chan didn't take it seriously, "If Chen Ping'an really has the ability to put himself in the fourth difficulty, after we read this difficulty, it will clearly tell us why there are so many fools and bad people in the world.
, and why everyone actually knows so many truths, why are they still living worse than dogs? Then they turned into Zhu Lu, our empress from Dali, Du Mao. Why can't we all be Qi Jingchun,
A Liang. But it is a pity that Chen Pingan cannot reach this step, because at this point, Chen Pingan has already lost. If you are interested then, you can stay here and slowly watch your body become deformed.
Li, the haggard sir, as for me, I must have left long ago."
Cui Dongshan said, "Are you in a hurry to reincarnate when you leave here?"
Cui Chan laughed loudly, stretched out a finger and tapped Cui Dongshan, "You have to learn from your husband. You must learn to be calm and control your anger so that you can control yourself."
Cui Chan looked at the scroll on the ground again, "I think Gu Can still doesn't even admit his mistakes, what do you think?"
Cui Dongshan closed his eyes again, not pretending to be dead, but as if he was waiting to die.
Cui Chanze said to himself: "It is said that there is no banquet in the world that never ends. Some people are not here, and the banquet is still there, just waiting for everyone to sit down again. But this table on Qingxia Island, even if everyone is not there, the banquet is still there."
We are still here, but in fact the banquet has already ended. Everyone said their own words and drank their own wine. What kind of reunion banquet is it? Forget it."
————
Chen Pingan was led by Gu Can to a magnificent house, which was not a private courtyard.
It was right next door to a house where Gu Can would occasionally stay.
Chen Ping'an asked Gu Can to chat with her mother more.
After Gu Can closed the door, she thought for a moment and did not go to find her mother. Instead, she went to relax alone, and soon the little loach followed behind her.
It told Gu Can in the voice of Xinhu: "After Liu Zhimao saw the jade plaque, he didn't believe it at first. Later, after confirming the authenticity, he seemed to be frightened."
Gu Can smiled in her heart and answered it: "Let me just say, Chen Ping'an will definitely be great. You didn't believe it before, so what? You believe it now."
It sighed softly.
Gu Can really wanted to go and slap to death the Jindan woman who was already imprisoned in the water prison.
But after talking to Chen Ping'an, I realized that it was pointless and useless to kill the assassin of the Zhu Ying Dynasty.
What made Chen Pingan angry was not with assassins like them.
Not on those hostile monks, but on those cardigan girls who died in the mouths of little loaches, and on various islands who were implicated and imprisoned by ants who were equivalent to "killing the nine tribes".
On each of them, they look like the slugs of Mud Bottle Alley and the apprentices of the Dragon Kiln.
Gu Can suddenly asked: "I have something I want to talk to Chen Pingan, but is it appropriate for me to go find him now?"
It appeared as a girl and scratched its head. This is what Gu Can learned from Chen Ping'an.
Yes, it was learned from Gu Can.
Gu Can smiled and said: "You're so stupid."
It quickly took back its hand and smiled.
Gu Can waved his hand, "Let's go, he is Chen Ping'an, there is nothing we can't say!"
Gu Can looked around, always feeling that the abominable Qingxia Island had become charming and lovely after that person arrived.
If one day Chen Pingan is no longer angry and is willing to stay in his new home, then this place will definitely be the most beautiful place in the world!
Back outside the room, before Gu Can knocked on the door, Chen Pingan said: "Come in."
Gu Can found Chen Ping'an standing at the door of the study. On the desk, there were pen and paper, a carving knife and a pile of bamboo slips.
Chen Pingan seems to want to write something?
Before Gu Can returns.
Chen Ping'an was introspecting and trying to truly put himself in Gu Can's position and perspective to look at this lake of slips.
Chen Pingan tried to return to the original node.
Start by telling the smallest truth.
This is the first step in the doctrine of sequence, in order of precedence.
Chen Ping'an knows that "talking to oneself" doesn't work.
Two people were sitting on the table in the living room, surrounded by shelves filled with a dazzling array of treasures and antiques.
Those were all carefully selected and prepared by Gu Can for Chen Pingan.
According to Gu Can's earliest thoughts, this place should have been filled with cardigan girls. Then he said to Chen Ping'an, "How about it? I said back then that one day, I will help you choose seventeen or eight
A girl who is as fresh and beautiful as that stinky bitch Zhigui, and now I can do it!"
But of course Gu Can doesn't dare to do it now.
After Gu Can sat down, he went straight to the point: "Chen Pingan, I roughly know why you are angry. It's just that my mother was present at the time, so I couldn't say this directly, for fear that she would think it was all my fault, and even you would be even more angry.
, I still feel that I did nothing wrong in the things that made you angry."
Chen Pingan said softly: "It doesn't matter. This time we don't want to finish it all in one breath. I will speak slowly and you can answer slowly."
Gu Can nodded.
Chen Pingan suddenly said: "Gu Can, do you feel disappointed?"
Gu Can shook his head and said: "I don't like to hear anyone reason with me. Whoever dares to talk about this in front of me, in the past, I would either beat him or kill him, more often the latter. Anyway, you will know this sooner or later,
And you said it yourself, no matter what, you want me to tell the truth and what’s in your heart, and you can’t be angry with me because of this.”
Chen Pingan nodded and asked: "First, the worshiper who should have died, your senior brother, the monks, servants and maids in their mansion. The little loach has killed so many people, and when he left, they were still all
Kill these people, don’t mention what I think, you say it yourself, is it really that important to kill them or not?”
Gu Canguo told the truth, "It's not that important, but killing him would be better. So I didn't stop the little loach. In this Shujian Lake, this is the most correct way. If you want to kill someone or take revenge, you have to kill."
The enemy was left without any grass and every island was leveled. Otherwise, the consequences would be endless. In Shujian Lake, there were really many fish that slipped through the net at that time. After decades or hundreds of years, they suddenly appeared and killed those who were there back then.
It’s normal for a person’s family to be spared their chickens and dogs. I’m already prepared to be killed by someone inexplicably one day. When that time comes, I, Gu Can, will never kneel down and beg for mercy, let alone ask those people who they are.
Who wants to kill me? So this year I have started to prepare how to arrange my mother’s future. I have thought about it a lot, but I don’t think it is a perfect solution for the time being, so I am still thinking about it. Anyway, the person I care about in the world is
, just my mother, you Chen Ping'an, and of course, now I also need to add my father who is already a ghost, although I have no memory of him. As long as I know that nothing will happen to the three of you because of me,
Even if I die one day, I will die and I will never regret it!"
Chen Ping'an listened carefully to what Gu Can said. He didn't say whether it was right or wrong. He just continued to ask: "Then, when you can protect yourself on Qingxia Island, why did you deliberately let go of an assassin and deliberately let them continue?
Come to kill you?"
Gu Can said: "This is also a way to scare bad guys. You have to kill them until their hearts tremble and scare them out of fear, so that you can eliminate all the little signs and bad ideas of potential enemies. In addition to the little loach's fight, I care
Can can also show that he is worse and smarter than them! Otherwise, they will be ready to take advantage of the opportunity. I am not talking nonsense. Chen Pingan, you have seen it yourself. I have done this, little loach.
It’s ferocious enough, right? But to this day, there are still assassins from the Zhu Ying Dynasty who are determined to kill me, right? Today I am an Eighth Realm Sword Cultivator, and next time I will definitely be a Nine Realm Sword Cultivator.”
Chen Ping'an thought for a while, drew a line on the table with his finger, and said to himself: "According to your whole story, I understand your thoughts now. Well, this is your Gu Can's truth, and
It makes sense in Shujian Lake, although it doesn't make sense here, but not all roads in the world are taken by me, Chen Ping'an, and my principles are not suitable for everyone and everywhere, so I still don't judge us.
Who is right and who is wrong? Then let me ask you another question. If it doesn’t hurt you and your aunt... forget it, according to the relationship between you and Shujian Lake, it won’t work."
Gu Can was confused. Chen Pingan had already denied himself even before he finished speaking his thoughts?
Is there anyone in the world who can be so reasonable with people?
Arguing with others, or to put it in a nice way, reasoning with others, isn't it just to let everyone take over, not to give up an inch of ground, and to kill the other party with your mouth? This is the same as fighting to kill the other party in one breath.
Well.
Then Gu Can couldn't help laughing, but quickly tried hard to hold himself back. If he dared to laugh now, he was afraid that Chen Ping'an would slap him again, and would Gu Can be able to fight back?
It's not just about suffering.
Besides, after giving Chen Ping'an a few slaps, Gu Can didn't even get angry at all.
In the world, even his mother would not beat him Gu Can.
Only Chen Ping'an knew that he would beat Gu Can not because he disliked him, but because he was really distressed, angry and disappointed.
Gu Can knew it when he was in Mud Bottle Alley.
Why is it that among the ten heroes of the bullshit Shujian Lake, the one who is really closest to Gu Can is that fool Fan Yan?
Only a fool like Fan Yan, who is truly heartless and weak-minded, can say such silly things as "if my mother hits me lightly, I feel a little distressed".
At that moment, the little loach also had a smile on his face.
No matter what, Chen Pingan has not changed.
Even though I, Gu Can, have changed so much, Chen Pingan is still the same Chen Pingan.
Chen Pingan was not in a hurry to speak at this moment.
When he was at the desk and preparing to write, he thought of something he once said to Pei Qian, which was about the three-month crucian carp and the three-spring bird. Chen Pingan explained to Pei Qian at that time that it was
A person who has enough food and warm clothes has a very precious kind heart, but he cannot talk to a person who is about to starve to death. Such a compassionate heart is unreasonable. The reason why people are human is that even those who are about to die can't.
If you don't have mercy, just jump over, have mercy on the birds and frogs, and follow the order taught by Mr. Wen Sheng to Chen Pingan, this is wrong.
So when Chen Ping'an placed what he said in Shujian Lake and Qingxia Island, that was it.
This is not a matter of whether to do good or not, this is a matter of how Gu Can and his mother should live.
So Chen Pingan suddenly began to reflect on himself.
Right and wrong in order.
Check the size.
Determine good and evil.
Don't skip a single step casually to explain your reasons to Gu Can.
If you don't understand it yourself, if you don't think it through thoroughly, whatever you say will be wrong. Even if it is right, no matter how correct the truth is, it will be like a loft in the sky.
Thinking of the truth I told Pei Qian, I naturally thought of Pei Qian's hometown, Ouhua Blessed Land. When I thought of Ouhua Blessed Land, I couldn't help but think of the Xinxiang Temple near Zhuangyuan Lane when I was uneasy.
I went to the temple and met the kind-hearted old monk in the temple. Finally, I thought of what the old monk who didn't like to talk about Buddhism said to me before he died, "Don't go to extremes in everything. Reasoning with others is what scares you the most."
I want to have all the truths, but I am most afraid that once I get into trouble with others, I will not see the good in them at all."
Finally, Chen Ping'an thought of the drunken Mr. Literary Saint and said, "No matter how many books you have read, you dare to say that this world is like this."
'How much peace and suffering have you seen with your own eyes before you dare to judge the good and evil of others?"
So before Gu Can came, Chen Pingan started to write, and wrote "In order of priority" and "Review the size" on two pieces of paper.
The two were placed side by side without taking out the third piece of paper and writing "Determining Good and Evil".
On the first piece of paper with "In order of priority" written on it, Chen Ping'an began to write down a series of names.
Gu Can, aunt, Liu Zhimao, chief priest of Qingxia Island, senior brother, golden elixir assassin... finally wrote "Chen Pingan".
After finishing writing, Chen Ping'an began to fall into deep thought as he looked at the worshipers, senior brothers, assassins, etc. who didn't even have names.
Then Gu Can came.
I had no choice but to put down my pen, stand up and leave the desk.
At this moment, Gu Can saw Chen Pingan and started to be in a daze again.
Gu Can didn't bother him and just lay down on the table. Little Loach hesitated for a moment and then plucked up the courage to lie down next to Gu Can.
Both heads were looking at the frowning Chen Pingan.
In fact, this little loach was very curious about Chen Pingan, who was supposed to be his master.
In the deepest part of Gu Can's heart, there is such an incredible thought. If one day Gu Can's own ability is high enough, then he will give it back to Chen Ping'an.
You must know that even a friend like Lu Caisang, who is recognized by Gu Can, will die if Lu Caisang is killed by others, and Gu Can will help him to avenge him, which is considered a loyalty to a friend.
Gu Can lay there and asked: "Chen Ping'an, wasn't my mother's bowl of rice just a bowl of rice? If you knock on other people's doors and beg the neighbors, you won't really starve to death, right?
?”
Chen Pingan nodded, "So I will be even more grateful to Auntie."
Gu Can asked: "Because of that sentence?"
Chen Pingan said slowly: "Have you forgotten? I told you that my mother only asked me not to do two things in my life. One is to be a beggar, and the other is to work as a kiln worker in a dragon kiln."
Gu Can sighed.
Gu Can asked again: "Looking at it now, even if I didn't give you the Broken Boxing Book at that time, there might not be Mountain-shaking Fist, but there would be some Water-shaking Fist and City-shaking Fist, right?"
Chen Ping'an still nodded, but said: "But that's not the truth."
The world has given you a kindness, not this. One day, when the world gives me malice again, even if the malice is far greater than the goodwill, I will completely deny the world. As long as the goodwill is still there, remember, hold on, and always
Remember.
This is the context barrier that Cui Dongshan mentioned. Every right, wrong, and wrong exists alone, just like the lotus-shaped cave where the Taoist ancestors contemplated Taoism. To put it in a smaller way, every right, wrong, and wrong is right and wrong. In a big way, it means every door.
The knowledge of hundreds of schools of thought is like every lotus that rises from the water. Although there are complex lotus roots and intertwined threads in the soil below the pond, if you can't even see the obvious lotus leaves above, how can you see them clearly?
The truth beneath the water.
Gu Can smiled and said: "Chen Ping'an, why can't you change?"
Chen Ping'an thought for a while, "Maybe I'm more lucky than you. I met good people at some very important moments."
Gu Can shook his head vigorously, "That's not the case. I also met you. I was so young at the time."
Gu Can sniffed, "At that time, I still had two runny noses every day."
Chen Pingan wrinkled his face, as if he wanted to smile.
Gu Can found an excuse and pulled the little loach away.
After the door closed, the footsteps that kept moving away became lighter and lighter. Chen Ping'an's face and energy suddenly collapsed. After a long time, he wiped his face and found that there were no tears.
Chen Pingan breathed out gently, walked back to the study, and sat in front of the desk.
Standing up again, Chen Ping'an took off the sword fairy and the sword gourd, and placed them beside the bookcase.
On the piece of paper "Review the size", write four lines of words.
A local custom.
The laws of a country.
Etiquette of a continent.
Morality in the world.
After Chen Pingan finished writing, he looked haggard, so he picked up the sword-raising gourd and took a sip of wine to refresh himself.
Then after a local custom, he wrote the words "Shu Jian Lake".
————
Gu Can returned to his room. There were three cardigan girls inside. One was sent by Fan Yan from Chishuicheng City. She was the daughter of an official who was in trouble in the Shihao Kingdom. The other was after the entire master sect on Sulin Island was wiped out by Qingxia Island.
, one of the people kidnapped by Gu Can was an outer disciple on Shucui Island, and she asked to be a cardigan girl.
Gu Can sat at the table, holding her chin with one hand, and asked the three cardigan girls to stand in a row, and asked: "Master, I want to ask you a question. As long as you answer it truthfully, you will be rewarded. If you dare to lie to me,
Just treat it as an appetizer for the little loach today. As for whether answering truthfully will annoy the young master, well, it was hard to say before, but it won’t happen today. As long as you tell the truth today, I will be happy."
The three pretty girls with different looks but all quite charming and attractive were all very frightened, not knowing what this little master with an unpredictable temperament wanted to do.
Gu Can asked: "Do you think becoming a cardigan is a good thing or a bad thing? Good, how good is it? Bad, how bad is it?"
The cardigan girl of the outer disciple of Shuwei Island immediately said: "Reporting to the young master, for this slave, this is a great good thing. Not only has this slave survived on Shuwei Island, but he also doesn't have to worry about it every day.
, the young master will not bully or kill us wantonly, young master, you don’t know how many young female nuns from Shujian Lake want to become the maids beside the young master."
The second young woman from a noble family in Shihao Kingdom hesitated for a moment, "I think it is neither good nor bad. After all, I have become a slave from the legitimate daughter of a noble family. But compared to going to a brothel to be an oiran, or those vulgar and reckless men.
Playthings are much better."
The last cardigan girl, who is the direct disciple of the master of Sulin Island, said with a cold face: "I wish I could cut the young master into pieces with a thousand knives!"
Gu Can didn't get angry at all and asked: "Why did Su Lin Island dare to secretly collude with the other eight islands and try to besiege our Qingxia Island? How did your sect die? Do you know? You are stupid.
Damn it, among the nine big islands, your Sulin Island is the closest to our Qingxia Island, and you are still so arrogant. How did your senior brother become the lowest priest of Qingxia Island? You really don’t know?
Why do you hate me as an outsider? Just because Little Loach and I killed more people? But you can hate me, but you should still be a little grateful to me for saving you, right? Otherwise, you would be your senior brother's right now.
It’s not like you haven’t heard of the bed fetishes he is gradually revealing now.”
The cardigan girl gritted her teeth and said, "Grateful? I can't wait to eat your Gu Can eyes as appetizers!"
Gu Can chuckled, "I didn't like you in the past, but now I think you are the most interesting. There are rewards, many rewards. Among the three of you, you can get double rewards."
Gu Can waved his hand, "Everyone, please step aside and go and receive the reward yourself."
Gu Can asked softly: "Little Loach, do you think I am wrong?"
Little Loach sat next to him and said softly: "No, I think neither the master nor Chen Pingan are wrong, but Chen Pingan is more... right? But that doesn't mean the master is wrong."
Gu Can turned around and said with a smile: "Little loach, you didn't have a good mind before. Why are you so smart now?"
The little loach suddenly became a little listless and said, "Master, I'm sorry."
Gu Can laughed loudly, "What are you sorry for? Are you afraid of Chen Pingan? Then do you think I'm afraid of Chen Pingan? I'm bursting with snot and tears, but I don't even feel embarrassed. What are you sorry for?"
The little loach shook its head and became happy.
Gu Can crossed her arms across her chest and raised her eyebrows and said, "I'm not even afraid of my mother. The world is big and I'm only afraid of Chen Ping'an. I think we two are already heroes."
Gu Can suddenly drooped his head, "Little loach, why don't Chen Ping'an turn a blind eye? Why are you nagging me so many things that I'm sure I won't listen to?"
The little loach shook its head vigorously.
Gu Can stretched out a finger, "So I know you are stupid."
Gu Can said to himself: "Chen Pingan, you are being stupid again. You want to give me your most precious thing. But this time, it is not food, clothing and fun, so I am not willing to accept it.
.”
The little loach leaned forward, stretched out a finger, and gently smoothed Gu Can's frown.
————
At dawn, the sky gradually turns white.
Chen Pingan, who had not slept all night, closed the door, left the house, and walked out of the mansion, wanting to go for a walk.
Gu Can, wearing a dark blue python robe, quickly caught up.
In the lake near Qingxia Island, a small loach appeared in its true form and was swimming slowly.
Chen Ping'an said: "I said so much yesterday because I wanted you to admit your mistake, but later I found it difficult. It doesn't matter. I hope you can remember what I'm going to say next today, because I'm not trying to convince you, I'm just giving it to you.
Tell me some possibilities that you may not have thought of. If you don’t want to hear it, remember it first, maybe you will need it someday. Can you do it?”
Gu Can nodded and said, "No problem, I'll keep those words in mind yesterday."
Chen Pingan held a branch in his hand, poked the ground gently, and walked slowly, "Under the world, not everyone can be me, Chen Pingan, nor can everyone be Gu Can. This is wrong."
"It is precisely because there are still such and such good people in the world, many of whom we have seen, and many more who we have not seen, that Gu Can and I are alive today and able to sit there yesterday and talk about our respective stories.
reason."
"I am saying this not to prove that you, Gu Can, are definitely wrong, but I hope you will know more about this world and know more. The world is more than just Shu Jian Lake. You will leave here one day, just like
I left my hometown town that year.”
Having said this, Chen Ping'an walked out of the white jade stone path and walked towards the lake, with Gu Can following closely behind.
Chen Ping'an squatted down, used a branch as a pen, and drew a circle on the ground, "I'm going to tell you a truth that I came up with blindly, but it's not perfect yet. It's because in Tongyezhou, I heard a good friend I met on the rivers and lakes.
friends, no.
This idea was developed after I accidentally heard about the divisions between sages, gentlemen and saints in the academy."
Gu Can muttered: "Why didn't I meet any good friends in Shujian Lake?"
Gu Can wished that Chen Pingan had only him as a friend in the world.
Chen Ping'an smiled and wrote two words in the small circle he drew, sage. "How to become a sage in the Seventy-Two Academy. The academy has rules. This is what this sage thought through through reading poems and books.
Establishing knowledge can be applied to a country's territory and become a state-governing strategy that benefits a country's mountains and rivers."
Then Chen Ping'an drew a slightly larger circle and wrote the word gentleman, "If the knowledge proposed by the sage in the academy can be applied to a continent, he can become a gentleman."
Finally, Chen Ping'an drew a larger circle and wrote the word "sage", "If a gentleman's knowledge becomes greater and greater and he can propose universal knowledge that covers the world, he can become an academy saint."
Chen Pingan pointed to the three circles, "Look, just looking at the three circles seems to be saying that even the Confucian academies promote 'standpoints'. Wise men, gentlemen and saints each have their own stand. So, ordinary people, when
Officials, those who lead troops in battles, those who practice in the mountains and the wild cultivators, and those who are immortal masters of genealogies on the mountains. How come we are wrong when we stand by our stance without asking about right and wrong? Do you know why?"
Gu Can felt dizzy and shook his head.
Chen Ping'an said: "First, it is possible to have a position, and it is difficult not to have one, but it does not mean that you can just talk about your own position and ignore everything. That kind of conscience is narrow-minded. No matter how knowledgeable you are, you are also a good person.
, the most fundamental basis for establishing one's life is the same, the wise men, gentlemen, and saints are connected, the common people are connected with the emperors, generals, and spiritual practitioners. Therefore, in the authentic Confucian Temple of the Middle-earth Divine Continent, the writings of the Confucian sages of the past dynasties are more and more profound.
The deeper it is at the bottom, the more unbreakable it is. I heard that even so, there were times in history when the golden words of the Great Sage began to lose their luster as time passed and circumstances changed."
Seeing Gu Can, he became more and more confused.
Chen Pingan twitched his lips and even smiled, "I thought about these words for a long time last night and wanted to say them to you, but in fact they were meant for myself."
Chen Pingan stood up and looked around, "Qingxia Island is a circle, and the rules of the sect were established by Liu Zhimao. To put it more simply, the place where you and your aunt live is also a circle. Many family rules were established by you and your aunt.
On a larger scale, Shujian Lake is still a circle, and the rules are local customs that countless wild cultivators in the mountains and swamps have sacrificed their blood and lives for in history. Looking at the bigger picture, in the middle of Aquarius Continent where Shujian Lake is located, Guanhu Academy is in
Draw a circle, and then go to a smaller one, you, I, Chen Pingan, my own principles are the smallest circle in the world, only restrain myself. Someone once said that in the secular world, relatively high morals are used to discipline oneself.
It will be better."
Chen Pingan seemed to be asking himself, leaning on the ground with a branch, and murmured: "Do you know what I am afraid of? I am afraid that those principles that can convince me at the moment to suffer less injustice, those principles that help me overcome the current difficulties, will become my
The principles of a lifetime are everywhere, but you and I have a long river of time that is hard to see and is always flowing. As I just said, in this irreversible process, many sage principles that have left golden words will also become dim.
No light."
"What made sense yesterday will become unreasonable."
Gu Can suddenly tilted his head and said, "You, Chen Ping'an, want me to know that I'm wrong when I say this today, right?"
Chen Pingan did not answer Gu Can, but said to himself: "But I feel that some of the lowest, lowest, so low things seem to have fallen on the dirt road of our Mud Bottle Alley, which is full of chicken and dog excrement.
, will never change. What it was like ten thousand years ago is what it is today, and it will still be what it is ten thousand years from now."
"For example, when we were about to starve to death... I, Chen Pingan, did not think about stealing. I would open the door to my aunt and give me a bowl of rice. I will remember it for the rest of my life. I, Chen Pingan, will still feel that someone gave me a bowl of rice at that time.
I will endure the candied haws and not pick it up. Do you know what I told myself in my heart while running?"
As long as it doesn't involve admitting his mistake, Gu Can will be more interested and curious, "What is it?"
Chen Pingan looked into the distance, "It would be wrong if I took it, because I still had a few copper coins on hand at that time, and I would not starve to death immediately. I couldn't pick up the bunch of candied haws, because I would be afraid of eating it.
After eating such delicious food, I will feel that a life that is already satisfying with a bowl of rice will become very unbearable. It will make my future life even more difficult. It will be difficult for me to eat a meal that is only 60% full of rice.
, I am still not very happy. Do I have to ask that person for candied haws every day? Even if he is still willing to give me alms every time, one day his stall will disappear.
what to do?"
Chen Ping'an looked dazed, "But you know what? At that time, none of these principles could resist the temptation of that string of candied haws. At that time, I really wanted to turn around and tell the man selling candied haws that I regretted it. You should still give it to me.
Let me do it. Do you know how I kept myself from turning around?"
Chen Pingan asked and answered himself, "I told myself, Chen Pingan, Chen Pingan, why are you so greedy? Maybe your father will come back one day, so you can eat by then and be full! Dad promised you that he will come back next time
My family would definitely bring candied haws on a stick. So later I secretly ran over there and didn’t see the vendor. I felt a little sad. It wasn’t that I was sad that I didn’t get the candied haws for free, but I was worried that if my father came home,
It’s time to buy no more candied haws.”
Gu Can reached out and wanted to tug the sleeve of the person next to him, but he didn't dare.
Chen Pingan murmured: "When a person is alive, he must have some thoughts, right?"
"Do you think I don't know that my father will never come back?"
"I know."
"But I still think so."
"You know, little slug, when you were little, walking at night, you always asked me why I wasn't afraid of ghosts at all? It's not that I wasn't afraid of ghosts at all from the beginning, but one day it suddenly occurred to me, if there really are ghosts in the world, right?
I can see my parents. When I think of this, I feel a lot more courageous."
"It's just that I'm also a little worried. My parents are so kind. If they really become ghosts, they are good ghosts. Will they be bullied by evil ghosts, so that they won't be able to see me?"
After Chen Ping'an said this, he turned around and rubbed Gu Can's head, "Let me go for a walk while you busy yourself."
Gu Can nodded and left gently.
After Gu Can walked far away, he turned around and looked, and a very strange thought suddenly came to his mind.
It seems that Chen Pingan is not as angry and sad as yesterday.
But Chen Ping'an seemed to be even more...disappointed, but it wasn't Gu Can who treated him.
————
That night, Gu Can found that the lights were still on in Chen Ping'an's house, so he knocked on the door.
Chen Pingan walked around the desk, walked to the table in the main hall, and asked, "Aren't you going to sleep yet?"
Gu Can smiled and said, "Isn't it the same for you?"
Gu Can had previously seen that the table was piled with densely written papers, but there was not even a ball of paper in the wastebasket, and asked: "Are you practicing calligraphy?"
Chen Pingan shook his head and said: "Just think about it and write whatever you want. In fact, I have been reading and listening to it all these years, but I still don't think enough."
Gu Can asked: "Have you thought of anything?"
Chen Ping'an thought for a while, "I was just thinking about a sentence: the freedom of the truly strong in the world should be bounded by the weak."
Gu Can rolled his eyes and said: "What kind of strong person am I, and how old am I now?"
Chen Ping'an said: "This has something to do with a person's age, but it is not necessarily related. I have encountered many powerful opponents before. Empress Dali, one is even more powerful than Little Loach's current cultivation level.
Lao Jiao, an Ascension Realm monk. We cannot say that they are purely bad people. In the eyes of many people, they are also good people. But at least they don't understand this truth."
"This is one of my most precious truths. You are Gu Can, so I am telling you. Whether you listen or not is up to you. But precisely because you are Gu Can, I hope you can listen attentively.
At such a young age, you are able to protect your mother. You are a strong person, and many, many adults cannot compare to you."
Gu Can lay on the table and said with a smile: "My mother said that you did so many things for your mother when you were a child. She always used this to say that I had no conscience, saying that I was born in vain and that I raised a white-eyed wolf.
.”
Chen Pingan said slowly: "Let's not talk about right and wrong, good and evil. If everyone in the world had the same thoughts as you, Gu Can, what do you think it would be like?"
Gu Can shook his head and said, "I never think about this."
Chen Pingan nodded.
This is Gu Can's true inner thoughts.
Gu Can was afraid that Chen Pingan would be angry, so he explained: "Tell the truth and say whatever you want. This is what Chen Pingan said himself."
Chen Pingan then changed the subject, "If it were all you Gu Can, in the small town in our hometown, there would be no Mr. Qi from the school, no grandpa Liu, our neighbor in Mu Ping Lane, no grandma Liu, and no mother who often helps your mother.
Uncle Zhao who harvests rice and grabs water."
"I think it doesn't matter if I don't have them. It doesn't matter if I have those. My mother and I have survived differently. At worst, if I get a few more beatings and my mother gets a few more scratches on the face, sooner or later I will beat them to death one by one.
.For the former, I will repay the favor one by one, fairy money? Rich mansion? Beautiful woman? Whatever you want, I will give it to you!"
"There will be no me in Mud Bottle Alley."
Gu Can glared and said, "That's not possible!"
Chen Pingan, who looked slightly pale, smiled.
After a moment of silence, Chen Pingan said: "Gu Can, I know you have been telling me the truth, so I am willing to sit here. Now I hope that for the last question, you can still tell me the truth."
"Can!"
"Do you like killing people?"
Gu Can hesitated for a moment, but the corners of his mouth slowly raised, and the last bit of smile rippled on his face. His face was full of smiles, his eyes were hot and sincere, and he said resolutely: "Yes!"
Gu Can smiled brightly, but started to cry, "Chen Pingan, I don't want to lie to you!"
Chen Pingan also smiled, stretched out his hand to help Gu Can wipe away his tears, "It doesn't matter, I think I was actually wrong. My principles can't tell what is right or wrong, but I am still Chen Pingan, and you are still a kid.
Slugs.”
Gu Can asked worriedly: "Are you angry with me?"
Chen Pingan shook his head, "I'm not angry with you."
Gu Can muttered: "But you are obviously still angry."
Chen Pingan said: "I will try and not be angry with anyone."
After Gu Can left.
Chen Pingan stood up and walked towards the desk, but stopped.
I was about to turn around, wanting to sit at the table and rest for a while, but I didn't really want to go.
Just stood there.
Chen Ping'an put his hands on his sleeves and bent slightly, thinking.
The old monk in the Nanyuan Elementary School once said a word: put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately.
But Gu Can didn't feel that he was at fault. The murderous knife in his heart was tightly held in Gu Can's hand, and he had no intention of letting it go.
So what I said to Pei Qian about yesterday's death yesterday and today's life today is empty talk.
It is easy to break the thief in the mountain, but it is difficult to break the thief in the heart.
Now Chen Ping'an felt that this "thief in his heart", who was on Gu Can's side, had also come to his side, pushed open the door to his heart, and took up residence. He couldn't be beaten to death, and he couldn't be driven away.
Because he couldn't get past his own heart.
Gu Can is the person he will never abandon.
The boss swordsman, an old man named Chen Qingdu, said that he has always been reasonable and reasonable in everything in his life, just to occasionally be less reasonable.
But Chen Pingan knew that the old man stopped talking, but the truth was still in the old man's heart. It was just that even a master swordsman like him had no choice but to draw his sword when his reasoning didn't make sense.
Chen Pingan was a little confused.
He suddenly realized that he had already explained all the truths he knew in his life, and maybe even the truths he wanted to tell others in the future.
————
In the high-rise building of Chishui City, Cui Dongshan murmured: "It's hard to persuade a damned person with good words!"
Cui Han smiled and said: "The great thing about the great road is that people like Gu Can can stand out better than the so-called mediocre good people."
Cui Dongshan turned his head and stared at Cui Han, "Didn't you let someone secretly protect Gu Can? Did you deliberately encourage Gu Can to do this?"
Cui Chan asked back: "If I successfully assassinate Gu Can's mother, and then block Chen Pingan's trip south, then when Ruan Xiu 'accidentally' injures Gu Can, wouldn't it be a dead end even more deadly? But I need this.
Do you want to arrange it? I don’t need to. Of course, if you do this, you will lose the subtlety of the heat and the diluted charm that is most worth pondering, leaving Chen Pingan to choose the path he can take. There are fewer, seemingly narrower, and more
The family is at a loss, but it is easy for Chen Pingan to go to extremes. If he follows his heart, he can beat Gu Can to death with a punch or stab him with a sword. Otherwise, he can simply kill himself. This dead end is just
What's the point of dying? Even if there is some meaning, it's not big enough. You won't be convinced, and I don't think it's possible to win."
Cui Dongshan looked lonely.
He suddenly said angrily: "Cui Dongshan, what did Chen Ping'an do wrong?!"
Cui Chan smiled helplessly, "Isn't it childish?"
Cui Dongshan roared: "Tell me!"
Cui Chan smiled, put his hand to his ear, tilted his head, and asked with a smile, as if he was waiting for the answer: "Holy Master, Li Sheng, you are the most knowledgeable. Come on, come on, let's talk about it."
Cui Dongshan suddenly became quiet.
Cui Chan smiled and said: "The overall situation has been decided. The only thing I want to know now is which sentence of Legalism did you write in that brocade bag? Don't be close or distant, and break up with the law?"
Cui Dongshan was lost and shook his head, "It's not Legalism."
Cui Chan nodded, "From this point of view, it is not Buddhist."
Cui Dongshan said foolishly, "It is not the knowledge of the three religions and hundreds of schools of thought, it is not one of so many principles."
Cui Chen frowned.
————
Chen Pingan stretched out his hand tremblingly and took out the bag of tips from his sleeve. Pei Qian gave it to him before leaving Hongzhu Town, saying that he must open it and take a look when he was the most angry.
Chen Pingan opened the kit and took out a note inside.
It says, "Chen Pingan, please don't be disappointed in this world."
After Chen Pingan read it, he put it in his bag and put it back in his sleeve.
Chen Pingan turned to look at the night outside the window and murmured: "I'm just very disappointed in myself."
————
Inside the tall building, Cui Chan laughed heartily.
Cui Dongshan was heartbroken.
Cui Chan kept laughing and was extremely happy.
Cui Xuan, the Grand Master of Great Li, has not been so hearty for a long, long time.
Cui Dongshan was about to stand up and walk out of the golden thunder pool that he had drawn as a prison.
Cui Chan suddenly narrowed his eyes.
I can only see it in the scroll.
Chen Pingan went to pick up the sword-raising gourd and drank all the wine in one go.
Then he took out the golden robe and stood there, wearing the robe on his own.
Chen Pingan took out another talisman and posted it on a pillar of the house.
Close your eyes.
Using the monk's method of looking inside, Chen Ping'an's spiritual consciousness came to the gate of the mansion where the golden scholar was located.
The door slowly opened.
After successfully refining the second natal object, the little man in a golden Confucian shirt with a sword on his back and a book on his back said something to Chen Pingan that even Mao Xiaodong couldn't figure out.
"If you know your mistakes and can correct them, there is no greater good."
That is actually the deep concern Chen Pingan has for Gu Can deep in Chen Pingan's heart. It is a hint from Chen Pingan to himself. He has made a mistake and must admit it. He is not a person close to me, Chen Pingan.
I feel that he has nothing wrong and I want to favor him, but those mistakes can be made up for through hard work.
However, so many people died.
Gu Can will not admit his mistakes.
Now, how to remedy it?
Right and wrong are all there. Chen Ping'an can make exceptions if he can't do it, and he can't deceive himself and others.
What many people are doing and saying may not necessarily be correct.
The door of the mansion slowly opened.
Chen Ping'an bowed to the little man in golden scholar's shirt and said goodbye.
The golden literary man who had already formed the rudimentary form of elixir and was expected to achieve the state of "morality in one's body", the little man in golden Confucian shirt said thousands of words, but just sighed and bowed respectfully like Chen Ping'an.
There was a bang.
The whole small human world is like a death knell, resounding throughout the world.
The golden bile suddenly shattered, and the long sword of the little man in golden scholar's shirt, which had recently become rusty, the books with dim luster, and itself melted away like snow and disappeared.
This mansion and this room on Qingxia Island.
There was a bloody smell.
Chen Pingan stumbled and fell to the ground, sitting cross-legged.
He struggled to stand up, pushed away all the papers, and began to write three letters.
————
Cui Dongshan's eyes were cold, "I lost."
A long silence.
Cui Dongshan was a little confused and turned around to look.
Cui Zhang felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy and began to sit upright!
————
The next day, a very strange person suddenly appeared on Qingxia Island.
First, Feijian sent three secret letters.
As for what he wrote and who he sent it to, this person is Gu Can's distinguished guest. Who dares to pry?
Those three letters were sent to Wei Bo of Longquan County, Zhongkui of Tongyezhou, and Fan Junmao of Old Longcheng.
Ask if there are any shortcuts that can be used to quickly master the immortal magic of gathering souls. There are many details about how a person becomes a ghost after death, or how to be reincarnated. Are there any long-lost ancient secrets?
, you can summon the "ancestors" from the Yin and Ming Dynasties to help people in the Yang world talk to them.
After that, the man asked for a small house near the entrance of a mountain on Qingxia Island.
On the table were pens, ink, paper, and an ordinary abacus.
The man was young and looked very depressed and pale, but he was clean and tidy. No matter who he looked at, his eyes were bright.
He and Mr. Tianko of Qingxia Island asked for the files of all the monks and servants of Qingxia Island.
