On the way home, Chen Yufeng thought a lot, but the more he thought about it, the more chaotic his brain became, just like the chaos of the universe at the beginning of the genesis period in the Bible.

When he returned home, the guests here had already left, and seeing that the servants were cleaning, Chen Yufeng walked away silently. At this time, Chen Rongguang walked over and asked, "Feng'er, where is Xia Zhihan who is with you?"

She went first. Chen Yufeng said calmly.

"Well, in two days, there will be a distinguished guest from the capital, and your grandfather wants you to meet with him. Chen Rongguang didn't think too much about it and said.

"Someone from the capital?"

Chen Yufeng was a little surprised. "It's probably grandpa's old comrade-in-arms, but why did you call me?" Chen Yufeng was puzzled, but still replied: "Got it, Dad, you go to bed early." After speaking, Chen Yufeng returned to his room.

"Alas. Chen Rongguang sighed and said no more.

……

The next two days passed very dullly, except for some trivial matters between Chen Yufeng and Xia Zhihan, the rest of the time was listening to the class, which was uneventful, and no one mentioned the events of that night again.

On the third day, Chen Yufeng took a leave of absence and went home, and today was the time for the arrival of the distinguished guest in the capital.

As soon as he returned to Chen's house, Chen Yufeng found that the atmosphere here had become a little heavy, and the guests must have arrived. Chen Yufeng walked leisurely, came to Chen Hongyang's room, knocked on the door, and after getting permission, Chen Yufeng walked into the study.

Chen Yufeng saw an old man sitting next to Chen Hongyang, wearing a Mao suit, holding a jade staff in his hand, although the wrinkles on his forehead were obvious, showing traces of erosion by the years, but he still looked quite energetic.

"Feng'er, come, let me introduce you, this is Nangong Wentian in the capital, he is in a high position in the capital, he is your godfather. Seeing Chen Yufeng coming in, Chen Hongyang hurriedly said.

"Godgrandpa. Chen Yufeng said without thinking.

"Well, yes, polite, well-behaved, it's good. Nangong asked the heavens and praised.

"Grandpa God's award. Chen Yufeng said with a smile.

"You don't have to be presumptuous, the old man came today just to see my grandson, and then reminisce about the past. Nangong Wentian said.

In order to give Chen Yufeng and Nangong Wentian space to catch up, Chen Hongyang withdrew from the study and left time for the two of them. "Godgrandson, do you know what people want to live in this life?" Nangong asked Tiantian while drinking Tieguanyin.

Chen Yufeng pondered for a while and said, "Seek fame and fortune, power." ”

Nangong Wentian shook his head and said: "That's just the idea of a useless person, I'm old now, and I look down on it a lot, I think that what people are trying to do in this life is just a way to live." What should be let go is to be let go after all. ”

Chen Yufeng was silent, savoring this sentence.

Nangong Wentian did not continue to ask, but asked: "Hanshan asked: How should people in the world slander me, bully me, insult me, laugh at me, despise me, despise me, hate me, and lie to me?"

Chen Yufeng was stunned for a moment, and then continued: "I have to answer him: just bear with him, let him, let him, avoid him, bear with him, respect him, ignore him, stay for a few more years, and you will look at him." ”

"Haha, good, good, worthy of being my godgrandson, I really know a lot!" Nangong Wentian laughed.

The two masters, Hanshan and Shide, are famous poets and monks in the history of Buddhism. Tang Dynasty Tiantai Mountain Guoqing Temple hermit monk Hanshan and find, grotesque deeds, very words, according to legend is the incarnation of Manjushri Bodhisattva and Puxian Bodhisattva. This dialogue is Hanshan's insult, extremely angry, and he went to find an explanation, so there is this question and answer that has been passed down through the ages.

Chen Yufeng said: "Grandpa Gan's dialogue is intended to tell his grandson the truth of dealing with people and how to deal with difficulties when encountering difficulties. ”

Nangong Wentian smiled: "Not only that, but this sentence also has a deeper meaning. ”

"What does it mean?"

Chen Yufeng was stunned for a moment, closed his eyes and pondered. After a while, some suddenly realized: "The words I picked up are also mixed with Taoist thoughts, which are in line with the 'pure non-action theory' advocated by Zhuangzi, 'less selfishness and few desires, no fighting.'" Obviously, this is a life-saving explanation. ”

Nangong Wentian nodded and said, "You can understand to this extent, this is very good, worthy of being a cultivator." It is precisely because of the ease, open-mindedness and detachment that makes this conversation wonderful. In fact, in the face of slander, insults, etc., few people can look at it open-mindedly, and we are not saints after all. The world is so big that there are no surprises. There are always people who don't like you, and it's important to be calm. ”

Chen Yufeng picked up the teacup on the table and said a little dazedly: "I thought that after nearly ten years of cultivation, it was enough to deal with the troubles of the world. But it has only been a few days, and my confidence has been ruthlessly torn to pieces! It seems that in the past ten years in Shushan, I have wasted my time. ”

Nangong Wentian heard this, and sighed: "You are arbitrary, you have not wasted your time in the past ten years, but you are just a little stubborn." There are always two sides to things, self-cultivation is good, the heart is like stopping water, but for your age, it's too early. Children of your size are enjoying the beauty of youth, after all, I am a person from the past, although I was buried by the ** of the society back then, but I can still experience it. I ask you, didn't the people of the past stubbornly adhere to Aristotle's doctrine? As a result, they were not blown to pieces by Galileo's two iron balls! What would have been the result if Galileo had also followed the rules?"

Chen Yufeng was stunned and didn't know how to answer.

Nangong Wentian raised his hand high, then let go, and the teacup in his hand immediately fell to the ground and fell into pieces. "It's like this, break it, it's not bound by rules. You know?"

Chen Yufeng looked at the broken teacup on the ground, and he suddenly felt an extra crack in something in his heart. "Why? Why is this happening? My way, my way, is it really what my godfather said?"

Nangong Wentian has experienced many winds and winds in his life, so he naturally figured out what Chen Yufeng thought in his heart, not in words, there are some things that he still needs to taste slowly.

"Okay, you godfather came here for a purpose. Nangong Wentian changed the subject.

"What is it?" Chen Yufeng came back to his senses and asked with some curiosity.

"It's a gift. ”

Nangong Wentian smiled mysteriously, stretched out his hand and took out a long box hidden behind him, and said, "This is the gift I gave you from Grandpa, open it and take a look." ”

This long box is not too decorated, and it looks a little quaint. Chen Yufeng opened the box, and what caught his eye was a knife about three feet long, covered with moss, which had not yet been opened, and looked a little ordinary. However, Chen Yufeng could clearly feel the compelling momentum emanating from above, which was extremely domineering!

Chen Yufeng pondered for a long time, and then shouted in a lost voice: "This ...... Could this be...... It's the Ming Hung Knife!"
