Chapter 512
We will arrive at the trading conference in two days.
During the day, Xu Song came to find Chen Feng once and said that he had to take a long journey and set off early the next morning.
That night, Chen Feng sat at the mouth of the d, holding a newly borrowed poem in his hand, and was slowly reciting:
"I am a Shulang from the Southern Tang Dynasty. The Tian Sect was lazy and arrogant. I once gave the dew branch to the wind and wrote a letter to the flowing clouds and borrowed the moon.
There are thousands of poems and thousands of wines. I have been watching the princes and kings. I have returned lazyly in the jade tower and the golden palace, and the plum blossoms are drunk on the setting sun."
After chanting several times, Chen Feng couldn't help but sigh at the poet's mentality. Living well is to be "in". This sentence looks funny, but in fact it also reveals a kind of helplessness. Who doesn't want freedom? Who doesn't pray for happiness? But some people live hard, tired, bored, and do not insist on completing their own journey of life, so they choose to give up and say goodbye to this world. Such people naturally have no freedom. Some people have thousands of imaginations and nostalgia for this world, but they are contaminated with or encounter unexpected problems. When they die young, they are powerless to turn things around.
Just as Chen Feng was talking to himself, someone suddenly asked, "Is it enough besides 'in'? The word 'self' that starts with liberation must be established."
Chen Feng looked up and found a woman in yellow veil appeared in front of him.
Under the moonlight, Chen Feng did not see her face clearly, but her graceful figure made Chen Feng determine that this woman was good-looking. A pink flower was slanted above her head, and wisps of fragrance came from her, not knowing whether it was the fragrance of flowers or human fragrance.
"Are you?" Chen Feng had never seen such a woman in Luming Peak. Could she be an inner disciple?
"It doesn't matter who I am for the time being. I just want to hear your opinion on freedom." The woman in Huangsha was obviously taking the exam herself.
"Are you a secret person?" Chen Feng did not feel the fluctuations in her secret power.
"That's right."
Chen Feng didn't have anything to do, and the other party seemed to be hostile to him, so Chen Feng simply talked about his own feelings: "Yes, 'self' is undoubtedly the basis of freedom. Self-esteem, self-confidence, self-improvement, no moral integrity, no self-discipline, no self-determination, no offense, no self-destruction, no offense... A clinging kudzu vine can never leave a bracket, and a cluster of crawling seedlings cannot touch the sky. Therefore, freedom still requires a person and a group to maintain the due survival status. Isn't the word "I have looked at the princes and kings" a manifestation of a single personality? However, we can sometimes find that many people are sick and still live very freely, especially some old people, who are energetic and passionate,
It really makes us young people ashamed. On the contrary, some secret people with high cultivation seem strong mentally, but they lose themselves. So in my opinion, physical and mental comfort, enjoyment and satisfaction are only lower levels of freedom. The freedom of life is more important manifestation of spiritual freedom. When everyone pursues comfort in life for worldly hobbies and physical satisfaction, you will not give up your hobbies, and still concentrate on doing your own things with interest, forget the worldly standards, ignore the cold eyes of others, immerse yourself in this happiness, and even willing to endure material poverty and the harsh environment. This is freedom."
The woman in yellow nodded and said, "But it's not easy to achieve this!"
"Yes! It's so difficult to not lose yourself! In the secret world, there is a close connection with the sect and other secret people. A secret person who is not good at learning will find it difficult to grow his cultivation; a secret person who cannot borrow power will also be struggling step by step. In the secret world, it is in a variety of networks. It is really difficult to be untied by fame, not implicated by power, not obsessed by sex, not entangled by wealth. Since most people cannot completely put fame, profit, power, sex, and wealth behind their heads, then how to grasp and master a degree is extremely critical. We must adhere to the principle of moderation in everything, and do our best to do it, not to be as good as possible."
"I think some ** is still good." The woman in Huangwei began to talk about her opinion. "** is not useless, sometimes it is also motivation. It depends on whether she can treat material desires, power desires, and **** correctly. Having a good sect, a good master, a group to protect herself, excellent secret techniques, powerful secret tools and treasures is all the normal pursuit of secrets. As long as..."
Chen Feng seemed to be able to guess what she meant, and said in unison with her, "Don't lose yourself."
The woman in yellow veil stroked the flowers on her temples and said, "There is a kind of grass that is very small, with only two or three leaves. It only blooms every six years and then witheres, but the next year it emerges a few green leaves. I once wondered how such a small grass can survive by absorbing enough water. I tried to dig it for a while and was surprised - the roots of this grass are two feet long. It grows year after year, absorbing water, storing strength, and finally blooming beautiful and bright flowers. The flower I wear is the flower of this grass. Unfortunately, this grass does not even have a name, and is not known to the world."
"The road is long and arduous, and I will search up and down." Chen Feng thought of the poem he had just learned. He was inspired by the woman in yellow. "In life, it is impossible to stay in a corner. There is always a yearning and pursuit. The long road of life for decades, including laughter and tears, success and failure, and freedom and stagnation. In a difficult situation, people will feel pressure, no direction, and sometimes even lose all their thoughts and just want to end it. However, with self-destruction, everything they once had will never escape the end of disappearing. Only by persisting and walking through mountains and rivers can you climb over cliffs, cross the thorns, and embark on the smooth road of life again."
"There is no way to go after the mountains and rivers, and the willows and flowers are bright. Are you saying this?"
"Yes. The kind of grass you said reminds me of a story in the secret world. According to legend, there was a secret man in Chixia Mountain. On the night he was about to be with his beloved, he was framed by a junior brother of the same sect and locked up in a dark cage. In the closed mountain, he felt despair, because the day of regaining freedom was far away, and he had thought of giving up because he had nothing in the dark. However, he finally insisted on living. Because of persistence, he practiced the simplest secret technique he had learned, and learned it for thirty years. During the thirty years, while practicing, he patiently waited for opportunities. In the end, he successfully escaped from the cage and found the treasure recorded in the treasure map left in the mountain. With his superb simple secret technique and powerful secret treasure, he began to revenge to punish evil and promote good."
"If you don't accumulate small steps, you can't reach a thousand miles; if you don't accumulate small flows, you can't make a river and sea. A good horse cannot leap ten steps; a slow horse can't drive ten times, and the achievements are to be reluctant to leave." The woman in Huangwei reads a lot of books, and quotes classics to agree with Chen Feng's story. "But sometimes, it is inevitable that you will fall into misunderstandings by emphasizing persistence. "Sometimes, the fairy world and hell are only one step away." Our lives are so strange. Many completely opposite things often have blurred boundaries. If you don't pay attention, different scenes may be formed by mistake."
Chen Feng nodded: "It is persistence to recognize the freedom and freedom you want to pursue and strive for it. If you do not slacke in achieving your goals, you will never slackewer. Doing solemnly, not hitting the wall in the wrong direction and not turning back, becoming more and more distant from freedom and freedom, is stubborn. Persistence and stubbornness are sometimes like the positive and negative sides of a thing, and the stubbornness criterion for determining the reason why persistence is persistence and the reason why stubbornness is stubborn is just the beginning, that is, whether the direction chosen is correct or not."
"Yes. During the Wanli period of the Southern Tang Dynasty, the Emperor of Northern Han was determined to repair the Great Wall in order to resist the plunder of the Hei Barbarian Kingdom. Shanhaiguan, which was known as the world's first pass, had been disrepair for a long time. The word "一" in the inscription "一" had fallen off for a long time. The emperor recruited famous calligraphers from all over the world, hoping to return to the original appearance of Shanhaiguan. When famous scholars from all over the world heard the news, they came to write, but no one's words could express the original flavor of the world's first pass. So the emperor told the world that as long as they could choose from the Bird Screen, they could receive a great reward. After strict screening, the last one was the waiter of an inn next to Shanhaiguan. On the day of the inscription, they would
The field was so crowded that it was so crowded that the official had prepared a pen, ink, paper and inkstone. After the waiter came to write. The protagonist looked up at the archway of Shanhaiguan, abandoned the Langhao's big pen, picked up a rag and dipped it in the inkstone, shouted "Yi", which was very clean and neat, and immediately a wonderful word appeared. Onlookers all gave him applause in surprise. Someone asked him curiously, the secret to why he was so successful. After being asked, he could not answer for a long time. Later, he reluctantly replied, in fact, I couldn't think of any secret. I just worked as a waiter here for more than 30 years. Whenever I was wiping the table, I looked at the word "Yi" on the archway, and just wiped it."
After the Huangsha woman finished telling the story, she asked Chen Feng: "What do the palace master think of this waiter?"
"The shop assistant watches every day and wipes every day, and it has been like a day for decades. It seems simple, but it requires the support of strong willpower. This also confirms an irrefutable truth: practice creates perfection, and proficiency can be mastered. Only by focusing on one's mind can the secret person move forward bravely. Hey, what are you calling me?" Chen Feng then reacted.
"I call you the Lord of the Palace."
