"Why should I look for someone better..." Master Mingxin replied, "I think you are already very good. What I like is your kindness."
"But what if there is someone kinder than me?" Yanqing asked, "Will you also like her?"
"Be kinder?" It was a very simple question, but unexpectedly, Master Mingxin hesitated for a moment.
At this moment of vacillation, Yanqing had obviously understood. There was a hint of disappointment in her eyes, and the next moment, a sound broke through the air, and several figures fell on the road outside the earthen house.
"Sect Master, look who we found!"
The voice of the Discipline Elder sounded, and Mingxin Sect Master raised his head a little irritably. When he saw Mark, he was slightly startled, "Why are you here too?"
As he said that, he stood up subconsciously, and immediately realized something. He looked at Yanqing aside, but Yanqing just waved her hand.
"Go talk to your friends."
The voice was obviously low, and Mingxin Sect Master realized that something was wrong with Yanqing's mood. He opened his mouth to say something, but he didn't say anything. A tangled look appeared on his face.
After a while, he gritted his teeth, finally stood up and walked outside.
Inside the house, Yanqing did not make a sound, but quietly watched Sect Leader Mingxin walking outside. Then, a touch of pain gradually appeared in her eyes.
…
"You are not here to persuade me to go back, are you?" On the field outside the small village, Master Mingxin glanced at the three elders who were watching them from a distance, and then looked at Ye Fan, "It was you who persuaded me in the first place.
Worldly."
"I have no intention of persuading the sect master." Ye Fan replied, with a smile on his lips, "I'm just curious about why the sect leader suddenly decided to get married and settle down a family a few months after he entered the world."
"You are the leader of Mingxin Sect. If you leave, what will Mingxin Sect do?"
When it came to this topic, Mingxin Sect Master was a little silent. After a while, he said with some regret, "Ye Fan, to be honest with you, I feel that I am quite confused now."
"In the few months since I joined the WTO, I have seen a lot of things. I have met old people who choose to live alone in order not to be a burden to their children, young people who are numb day after day because of money, and officials who do anything because of their power... I have met them.
Many people, it seems that everyone is like you said, bound by worldly money, power, fame and fortune, and they are trapped in it and cannot extricate themselves."
"This is the normal state of all living beings, and it should have nothing to do with the resignation of the sect leader." Ye Fan replied.
"This is the biggest relationship." Master Mingxin shook his head, "I originally thought that when people get along with each other, those with high moral standards should be valued. But in the world, kind people are always bullied, but those despicable people can use themselves to
To obtain money and power by any means necessary."
"People put money, power, fame and wealth first, chasing the so-called successful people. Children are taught to study hard from birth, but the purpose of studying hard is just to earn more money and become a bigger official. People are bustling every day,
Just sitting at a dry work station
Day after day, the purpose of doing that is just to have money to eat, buy a house, find someone to marry, and create conditions for the child so that he can live less of a dry and poor life like himself.
There are many, many more…”
"You said before that ordinary people's lives are just running around for these daily necessities. I didn't believe it before, but when I really saw it, I have to say, I..."
"A little disappointed, right?" Listening to Master Mingxin's words, Ye Fan spoke up, but sighed quietly, "Those who enjoy grudges and grudges freely and freely are the world. Ordinary people in this world are actually nothing more than that."
"But it's so different from the world I thought about. I can't accept it, and I'm always in a restless mood." Mingxin Sect Master replied, pointing to the field in front of him, "Some time ago, I felt that the end was approaching, and it was a bumpy road.
here."
"Compared with big cities, the mountain villages here are remote and backward, and most of the people are dull. However, the people here obviously live a very hard life, but many of them don't have the suffocating smell of copper and lust for power in the city."
"I like it here, and then I met the kind-hearted Yanqing here, so I want to stay here and spend the rest of my days."
Hearing this, Ye Fan nodded slightly, and seemed to have understood the reason why the master of Mingxin Sect did not want to return to Mingxin Sect.
After all, for the past hundred years, the master of the Mingxin Sect has lived in an ideal secret realm like the Mingxin Sect, with rules and restrictions, sufficient resources, and people respecting each other and loving each other.
He had always thought that the world was like this, and even if it wasn't, it would be easy to change. But when he discovered that all living beings were like this, and the huge gap between reality and ideals exposed his illusions, he subconsciously felt fear.
The so-called liking here is mostly just the thought of escaping from the world.
"Sect Master." After thinking about this for a while, Ye Fan said, "Do you really like it here?"
"If another village appeared with friendlier people than the people here, would you also like it?"
This somewhat familiar question made Master Mingxin frown a little. This time, he still hesitated. After a few seconds, he shook his head and said, "I don't know either."
"How could the sect leader not know?" Ye Fan seemed to see through the mind of the sect leader Mingxin and said, "What you want to say is yes, but you think this answer is too superficial."
"Just like what you said about meeting Yanqing, the same is true. If another kind-hearted person appears at that time, the sect leader will also want to spend the rest of his life with her."
As the words rang out, Master Mingxin fell silent for a moment, frowning at times, but then he nodded helplessly, "It's exactly what you said."
After saying these words, Master Mingxin seemed a little frustrated, and his shoulders sagged unconsciously.
"Master, what you like is kindness, not this village, let alone Yanqing." Ye Fan replied, patting Master Mingxin.
"If you say that, then I am even more confused." Master Mingxin replied and sighed, "Originally, when I came to the world, I just wanted to seek a breakthrough state of mind, but now, I feel that this life seems to be in vain.
Alive."
"For the past hundred years, I have lived in empty ideas and a fictitious world. Now that I have run out of energy, I realize that everything is just an illusion and that the ideas of the past cannot be realized at all."
"I don't know where to go, let alone what the meaning of walking is."
Hearing this, Ye Fan paused, and then said, "Sect Master, have you ever thought about what you really want?"
"What do you really want?" Master Mingxin paused, then shook his head, "I thought that living here was what I wanted, but you exposed me, and now, I don't even know what I want."
"How could you not know?" Ye Fan replied, "Master, don't you know what the world you long for looks like? Then why don't you do it?"
"What can I do?"
"There is a lot that can be done." Ye Fan said, but there was a smile in his eyes.
"Didn't the Mingxin Sect say that the strong should not cling to the weak, the masses should not rob the few, the rich should not bully the poor, and the noble should not be arrogant and humble."
"But people can't do it at all." Master Mingxin shook his head, "People have been eroded to the core by the secular world. It is too difficult to change."
"Isn't this the reason why we should change?" Ye Fan said otherwise and shook his head, "The human race is now corrupt precisely because everyone is afraid."
"If it's difficult, give up. If latecomers are like this, then when will the future of the human race be bright? The world that the sect master and the Mingxin Sect hope for will never appear."
"Instead of letting this happen, why not change it? As the patriarch said, since the elderly are afraid of dragging down their children, then we will establish complete welfare for the elderly. Since we feel that the young people on the assembly line are insensitive, then we will create more valuable and meaningful things.
For those unscrupulous officials, we pull them down and parade them through the streets. For those unknown good people, we reward them, so that everyone can see that good people are rewarded... There are too many, and we can all work hard to change them.
things."
"The old man in the field still has the ambition to move mountains. Why is a strong man like the sect leader so cowardly!"
