On the shore of Mingyue Lake, green willows are shady. The morning sun shines on the surface of the lake, sparkling and golden.

There are koi fish playing in the shallow water to feed, and there are small boats rippling in the lake.

The students on the meadow talk in pairs, and the couples in the boat whisper in pairs.

Another quaint stone arch bridge crosses the lake, and a few young schoolgirls climb on the railing and tease the small fish in the lake.

"It's so beautiful"!!

"Envy"?

"Jealousy". "Add another hate".

"It's useless to hate, let you read the Tao Te Ching, how did you read it"?

"Uncle, I can memorize it when I'm three years old."

"Is being able to memorize the same as being able to read"?

"Oh, I don't understand it, I don't understand it."

Nalan Zhenbang stopped, turned around and slapped a stick on Nalan Zijian. "Give me less poor mouths".

Nalan Zijian rubbed his arm, grinning in pain, "Uncle, A-Ying is looking at it, is it okay to save me some face."

A-Ying's face on the side was still cold, and she turned her head to the side, "I didn't see anything."

Nalan Zijian sighed, "Hey, only women and villains are difficult to raise."

"Ahem, uncle, you are a scholar, or a teacher, the fan in your hand can be more elegant. ”

Nalan Zhenbang grabbed the thin teaching stick with both hands, "Didn't you beat it lightly just now!"

"No, no, no, the uncle's temperament just now is full of elegance, a little reckless and a little reckless, and a little bit of his daughter's charm. Just right".

"No more nonsense, believe it or not, I'll throw you down to feed the fish".

"Ahem, recently my little nephew read the Tao Te Ching again and benefited a lot. Mr. Lu Xun once said: "If you don't read the book "Tao Te Ching", you don't know Chinese culture and don't know the true meaning of life." Mr. Nan Huaijin uses "Huang Lao internally and Confucianism externally" as the only way for a gentleman to cultivate himself. "Recently, I have been thinking again about what is the true meaning of life and what is a gentleman"?

"What do you think about"?

"Know that its male guards its female, and that its white guard its black. Knowing glory and guarding humiliation, it is a loss for the Taoist, and it is damaged and damaged, and even infinite. ”

Nalan Zhenbang's heart moved slightly, and he tightened the teaching stick in his hand. Said lightly: "Continue".

"When the wood is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it, and when the pile comes out of the shore, the flow will be turbulent, and the line is higher than the people, and the people will not be it." The softest in the world, the strongest in the world. ”

Nalan Zijian looked at Nalan Zhenbang's face carefully, and said heavily: "Respect is victorious, righteousness is victorious." Know the male, guard the female".

The teaching stick in Nalan Zhenbang's hand shook slightly, and his serious expression gradually revealed a smile.

"Really"?

"Of course, that's what I feel from the heart."

"Papapa", unprepared, Nalan Zhenbang's teaching stick hit Nalan Zijian. Every time you hit, you scold.

"Know the male, guard the female. Spend a million on a schoolgirl's bracelet".

"Respect is better than slackness, righteousness is better than desire. forced one of my students to borrow loan sharks as a duck."

"Huang Lao is used internally, and Confucianism is shown externally. seduced female students to take out naked loans and bankrupted their families".

"Stinky boy, this is your perception, or from the heart."

Nalan Zijian was beaten and screamed, and he ran away. Nalan Zhenbang brandished the teaching stick and chased after him.

A-Ying sighed, couldn't bear to look directly, and tilted her head into the lake.

A koi fish jumped out of the water, shining like a golden dragon out of the sea in the sun.

.........

.........

After all, Nalan Zhenbang is in his 60s, where can he run past Nalan Zijian, and he is so tired that he can't breathe when he runs more than 100 meters.

"Stink, boy, you, you stop me".

Nalan Zijian stopped and looked back, Nalan Zhenbang was bent over, his hands on his knees, and he was panting breathlessly.

Nalan Zijian was afraid that Nalan Zhenbang would have a bad idea, so he turned around timidly and walked back.

"Uncle, let's talk first, the gentleman doesn't do anything."

Nalan Zhenbang beckoned to him, "Don't come and help me yet."

Nalan Zijian walked in front of him and stretched out his hand to support Nalan Zhenbang. "Uncle, I didn't say you, a senior master of Chinese culture, you are so old that you can't beat people at every turn, and you lose your identity."

Nalan Zhenbang glared at him, pointed to the boat by the lake, and "Help me get on the boat."

Nalan Zijian frowned, as if he had thought of something, and helped Nalan Zhenbang to get on the boat.

Ah Ying looked at the boat that had rowed to the center of the lake, and shouted with a cold face: "Uncle, young master, be careful."

Nalan Zijian waved his hand, "Don't worry, Young Master Ben can catch the moon in the sky and catch turtles in the sea."

"Ahem, uncle, this lake is full of couples, it's not suitable for us to go boating on the lake."

"Do you feel wronged"?

"Hey, don't dare".

"What don't you kid dare"!

Nalan Zhenbang's eyes were slightly closed, and he put his hand into the lake water, which was cool and refreshing, and his whole body was relaxed.

Nalan Zijian looked at Nalan Zhenbang, who was enjoying himself easily, and a faint smile curled up at the corner of his mouth.

"Zijian, know that the male guards the female, you do better than me."

"Hehe, uncle, the sun didn't come out in the west today, in my impression, this is the first time you have praised me."

"Don't pretend". Nalan Zhenbang slowly opened his eyes.

Nalan Zijian said in surprise: "Uncle, forgive the little nephew for being stupid, I really don't understand."

Nalan Zhengbang looked at the sparkling lake and said lightly: "What people are most afraid of is that they have doubts in their hearts, and if they have doubts in their hearts, they will not be able to settle down all day long." I haven't had a good night's sleep in all these years."

"Oh, uncle, I know a friend who specializes in treating insomnia, and he will definitely give you a good night's sleep."

Nalan Zhenbang glanced at Nalan Zijian lightly, and he was keenly aware that Nalan Zijian's address to him changed from 'you' to 'you'.

"You have so many doubts in your heart, and you can live so chicly, your uncle is not as good as you."

"Hehe, I'm a lot more confused, such as why this lake is called Mingyue Lake, why can't the koi fish in this lake catch two and barbecue, and why I look so handsome, why I don't have a girlfriend now. I don't weigh down when I have a lot of debt, and I don't itch if I have lice. Uncle, at such an old age, don't think about it all day long."

Nalan Zhenbang smiled with satisfaction, "Even the uncle can't believe it, yes, the Nalan family is lucky to have you."

Nalan Zijian gradually put away the smile on his hippie smile, "Please give me advice."

"More than 20 years ago, I was equivalent to breaking away from the Nalan family, and I didn't care about the family's affairs, and I was a person who was purely academic in the eyes of others. That's the only way I can avoid it as much as possible."

"Did you find it?" asked Nalan Zijian, squinting his eyes.

"Nope".

"Who is it?"

"I don't know, I can't see or touch, I don't seem to exist, and I seem to be everywhere."

"Like a shadow?" Nalan Zijian said lightly.

"Yes, it's as ubiquitous as a shadow, it's hard to guard against."

"Since there is a shadow, there must also be a projection of the real body."

Nalan Zhenbang frowned slightly, "In the past twenty years, I have secretly checked. Thousands of figurative images, shadows and shadows, difficult to distinguish".

"It's not that it's hard to discern, it's just that there are too many knots."

"Do you know who is the hardest enemy you face"?

Nalan Zijian smiled faintly, "Grandpa, parents, the entire Nalan family, and even included you before."

Nalan Zhenbang looked at Nalan Zijian in a daze, and then laughed, leaning back with laughter.

"Worthy of being my good nephew".

Nalan Zijian smiled, "Didn't Uncle scold me for being bold since I was a child?

"The Nalan family has been like this for generations, and no one dares to pierce this day and tell the uncle, why"?

"Then why is the uncle"?

"Because how can Lang Lang Qiankun tolerate the existence of shadows, how can the vast heavens and the universe not allow axioms not to exist in the world."

Nalan Zijian smiled, "I don't have such a high consciousness as my uncle, you are not allowed to laugh at me if I say my reasons."

"Tell me about it"?

"You know I've never believed in anything big and good, and I don't believe in any bullshit axioms. I just don't want to see her sad."

"Hehe, for your little cousin"?

The gentleman depicted in the book and the truth he preached, you can see a few in reality. I wouldn't be stupid enough to sacrifice for those irrelevant stupid people. But she is my sister, and she is a beautiful gift from God to this world. ”

Nalan Zhenbang looked at Nalan Zijian in a daze, and sighed, "Zijian, you are too smart, you are so smart that you can see through the essence of everything, human nature cannot be seen through, no matter how perfect human nature is, there are flaws in human nature, and you will be disappointed after seeing it through." It's not that you don't believe in the sages, you don't believe in this world. That's why you need a perfect person like Ye Zixuan as a cornerstone of your spiritual world. ”。

Said with a wry smile, "I smell a martyr smell in you."

Nalan Zijian smiled, "Isn't Uncle also martyring for your Lang Lang Qiankun?"

Nalan Zhenbang laughed, "You kid can't live if you're not crazy, and your uncle's Dao heart is not as firm as yours."

"Hehe, it's not that you're not firm in your Dao heart, but you're just a little timid."

Nalan Zhenbang smiled faintly, "Aren't you afraid that Lu Shanmin's kid will die in Jiangzhou, if he dies, this game of chess will not be able to be played"?

Nalan Zijian waved his sleeves, not taking away a single cloud, and said with a chic smile: "Every next move is a dangerous move." It is only possible to succeed if evil turns evil everywhere. It's useless to worry."

Nalan Zhenbang patted Nalan Zijian on the shoulder, "Zijian, don't trust anyone, don't take any action lightly." Shadows are everywhere".

..........

..........

"Young master, what did you talk to your uncle about just now, you had such a happy chat."

"Hey, A-Ying, you can see it from so far away"?

A-Ying said lightly: "You two are laughing at the sky on the boat, and I am not blind."

"Hehe, A-Ying, let me tell you quietly, don't look at the uncle pretending to be serious all day long, in fact, he is a sassy old man."

"Huh"?

"It's easy to level him, just tell him a few pornographic jokes."

Ah Ying's cheeks were slightly red, "Young Master, you are too indecent."

"Hehe, A-Ying, you also have a cold face all day long, do you want a lot of masters to tell you a smile"?

"Don't want to hear it".

"A-Ying, you're also a big girl, don't be shy."

"I don't listen".

"Ah Ying, Young Master Ben will tell you a pus and bleeding joke, and I promise that you will laugh off your big teeth."

"Master, I'm angry."
