"Master learned skills as a young man, wandered around the world as a young man, kept his heart and self-denial for half his life, and won praise from the world. Even if a person like him continues to fail in his achievements, he will gradually become a legend in the world and be remembered forever. However, at the age of forty, he
One year, I fell in love with someone."
Yang Shu thought for a moment: "Which Jianghu heroine is it?"
Mingwei thought of her master's wooden comb that never left her body, and her voice became harsh: "No, that's the little widow he accidentally saved."
Yang Shu was stunned.
"The little widow married the seriously ill son of a wealthy family at the age of fifteen and became a widow the next year. She kept to herself, but later on, the surviving sons of the family fought over the family property and worried that she would adopt an heir.
He framed her for stealing. A widow who was married into a wedding was slandered like this. What else could she do? She escaped from the house at night, but was overtaken and had no choice but to commit suicide by throwing herself into the river. The master happened to be there at that time.
I was passing by and saved her."
Yang Shu was a little surprised. Since she married into a wealthy family, her family must be in a bad situation. A girl from a poor family like that might not even be able to read, so she actually attracted the attention of a fortune teller?
"The little widow had nowhere to go, so the master was always a kind-hearted person, so he temporarily took her in. The master was going to collect a demon at that time, so he decided to wait until the matter was completed, and then find a way to find a place to put her.
Little widow. But..."
Mingwei paused and smiled mockingly: "Maybe things in this world are so difficult to distinguish, right? They walked together all the way, and in the end they were inseparable. The evil mana was very powerful, and the master had to endure it in order to contain it.
The injury was minor. The little widow wanted to repay his life-saving grace and take care of him wholeheartedly. I don’t know who was moved first, but in short, things came to that point."
Yang Shu pondered for a moment and said: "I have no intention of commenting on your master's emotions, but in that situation, it is easy to grow out of pity and love. He has never been cared for like this properly in his half-life. And that little widow
, she has no one to rely on, and following your master will definitely give her an unprecedented sense of security."
"Maybe." Mingwei said softly, "No matter what the reason is, isn't the so-called love just about feeling pity for someone, loving someone, and not letting go of someone?"
Yang Shu was convinced by her: "That's true."
"My master didn't intend to let it go. He is already forty years old, and the little widow is only twenty. Moreover, it is inevitable that she will be suspected of relying on favor. But the little widow is more determined than him on this matter. She
Her last marriage was a sacrifice, and this time she wanted to control her own destiny. With her perseverance in pursuit, the master finally agreed. I knew that he was actually very happy, a person who restrained himself all his life and never indulged, for the first time
If you cross the line, you will be happier than ordinary people..."
Yang Shu was puzzled: "Isn't this good? Even if the age and status of the two of them are quite different, one is unmarried and the other is widowed, but it doesn't bother others. Why do you say this is a wrong thing and you should regret it?
lifetime?"
Mingwei was silent for a long time and said: "Because she is dead."
"Who? Oh, you mean the little widow." Tiansuanzi lived until he passed on the mantle to her, so naturally he would not die so early.
"Master said that he was involved in too many causes and effects, so he killed her. They only had three years, and after three years, she left."
Yang Shu always felt unspeakable sadness when listening to her voice. Did this incident hit her hard?
After a while, Mingwei continued: "As you know, the master is not only my disciple, but later he also accepted his junior brother. Originally, he was more inclined to pass the command talisman to the junior junior brother. Because..."
She showed a self-deprecating smile: "He said that my mind is unstable, and it is difficult to distinguish between good and evil, so I may have difficulty controlling myself. On the contrary, my junior brother is pure and kind-hearted, single-minded, and able to stick to himself."
Seeing that he didn't say anything, she asked, "Don't you think it's strange? After being here for so long, I don't look like a bad person in anything I do."
Yang Shu said calmly: "I knew it a long time ago. Although your goals are fair and aboveboard, you always act with a certain evil spirit. Back in Dongning, your revenge against the Ming family seemed to be principled, but in fact it was very arbitrary. For example,
My senior brother, if it were up to him to handle this matter, maybe he would kill Ming Er and Ming San directly instead of using magic to drive them crazy and let them suffer from the illusion until they die."
"Yes! This is what I am most dissatisfied with. Why do people who do good deeds always have to be subject to various constraints? Inhumane? So what? Are they humane to the victims? I told my master this when I was a child, and master said
A mind like mine is very dangerous. It can be maintained or destroyed with just a single thought. As a fortune teller, because you have stronger power than ordinary people, you must have higher moral character than ordinary people."
Yang Shu only patted her head and expressed his support silently.
"But the master later passed on the fortune teller to me because I told him that I was not convinced and I wanted to prove that what he said was wrong and what he did was wrong. The so-called fortune teller's misfortune was only his personal misfortune.
The death of my wife has nothing to do with the cause and effect of the so-called fortune teller..."
Having said this, Mingwei lowered his head and buried his head on his knees.
After a while, she continued: "But before I could prove it, he left. Then I came here and met you..."
The firewood in front of me made a crackling sound, and I didn't know what it was responding to.
Mingwei continued: "I finally know now that I misunderstood Master. He is not afraid of cause and effect, but because the love is too strong and cannot be lost."
"Then don't let yourself lose it." Yang Shu said, "You have to try your best to keep it, only then will you know whether you can keep it, right?"
"Now I feel more and more that I was too arrogant in the past. There are too many things that are impossible in this world. Master is so powerful and works so hard, but he can still only watch the country's destiny decline and slide into the unknown abyss. I will fight hard
I tried everything, thinking that I had reached the end, but in the end I almost lost my hand because of a group of petty thieves. If it hadn't been for that senior..."
Mingwei sighed: "There are too many surprises in this world, and no one can truly have all the plans. Even if I go back to this era, I don't know if I can succeed. Maybe the wheel of history cannot be stopped by individuals at all.
"
"But you are back. This is the opportunity God has given you, isn't it?"
"Yes." Mingwei turned her head and looked at his face, trying to find traces of it. However, at that time, she had lost her eyesight due to snow blindness and could not see the face clearly.
What's more, what if you can see that face clearly? After seventy years, a person's appearance will change.
Mingwei thought pessimistically that that is what they should really look like. She and the young him now are just a dream.
False happiness will not last long. The bubble of fantasy must be popped.
But how can you bear it? How can you bear it?
The so-called love means that one feels pity for one's heart, loves one's heart, and finds it hard to leave. (To be continued)
