Chapter Thirty-Nine: Is a Mountain a Mountain?
Today's night is different from the night when the group of people who went north to complain fled, there is a mountain breeze blowing slowly, and the whispers are blowing in your ears, like the whispers of lovers.
Guan Ke stood on a small hill, looking up at the distant sky, comfortably enjoying the caress of the wind. He pointed to the few stars in the sky and said, "Look, I'm not lying to you, do I? ”
There are indeed stars in the sky, but most of them are as bright as dust, flickering and dimming, as if they were candles swaying in the wind, and they may be extinguished at any time, and even the largest star in the north is as dark as the night pearl covered with dust.
Shi Mei glanced up at the slightly gloomy sky, and then lowered his head again. The gloomy sky is nowhere near as appealing as a supernatural dog. Ever since she discovered Hei's peculiarity, she has been teasing him constantly, as if her mother was inducing a child who had just begun to babble.
Guan Ke found that his words could not attract the interest of others, and he couldn't help but be stupid. He looked at Hei's pampered and proud face, and wanted to take off his shoes and hit his dog on the head.
Hei buried his head between Shi Mei's hands, enjoying his face.
Shi Mei's unfocused eyes kept staring at Ah Hei and never looked away.
Guan Ke suddenly thought of a way, and felt that there was hope for Shi Mei to recover the money owed. "How about we make a deal?"
Shi Mei touched Ah Hei's dog head and said, "What deal?" Her voice was no longer cold and lonely, but had a touch of human breath.
"Don't you like Ah Hei very much, how about I sell him to you for the money you owe?" said Guan Ke as he stared at Shi Mei with embarrassed eyes.
Ahi screamed twice.
Guan Ke ignored him, still looking at Shi Mei's face hopefully.
Shi Mei finally got tired of teasing, she stood up, and also looked at the dark and gloomy sky, and the expression on her face also returned to an indifferent look. She said lightly, "I won't buy it." He is a free soul, and he should wander freely between heaven and earth, and no one should bind him. I like him a lot, but I don't want to tie him down because I like it. I think I like him more freely running between heaven and earth. She turned her face and said seriously to Guan Ke: "I don't think anyone is qualified to be his master, I don't, and of course you don't." ”
"I didn't expect you to be so sentimental. Actually, why do you have to think so much? Since you like Ah Hei very much, let him follow you, you don't care if he is free or not, maybe this guy doesn't know what freedom is. Guan Ke continued to persuade bitterly.
Ah Hei screamed dissatisfiedly, and Guan Ke immediately glared at him with serious eyes. Hei understood the meaning in his eyes and told me to be honest.
Hei screamed again in defiance, but in a much lower voice than before.
Shi Mei looked up at the obscure sky again and said, "There are too many selfish people like you in this world, so I don't like it. After a pause, she continued: "I thought the world was in a deep quagmire, but I didn't expect to see a free and pure soul today. ”
Guan Ke slandered in his heart, there is not a day when Ah Hei's body is not dirty, and he is still pure, I am afraid that it is darker than the big bad wolf. Of course you can't say this kind of slander, and he still wants her to pay back!" In fact, Ah Hei likes others to bind him. He doesn't follow me for a day, and I feel empty, lonely, and cold. He's not a horse, he likes to gallop freely. So Ahei needs a master, and if you want, you can be his master. As soon as Guan Ke spoke, he felt that something was wrong, so he changed his words and said: "No, it's not the master, but a friend." If you want to be friends with him, then you are friends, and if you want to be playmates with him, you are playmates. ”
"Yes, he can do whatever you want him, so aren't you his master?
Guan Ke was speechless for a while, thought about it and said: "I always feel that I don't have to think too much about being a man. The world is so big, so complicated, everywhere there is truth, everywhere there is reason, if you delve into each one, you may not be able to understand it when you think of death, not to mention that there may be a greater truth beyond the truth. Therefore, it is better to be chic, to be more comfortable, and to do whatever comes to mind, and there is no need to study every truth in depth. ”
"Is that how much you want that money?"
"Of course. ”
"Then I can't give it to you. “
Guan Ke choked on this for a long time, thinking, isn't this raising the bar with me?"
"People who are obsessed with money are not a good thing. Shi Mei said categorically.
Guan Ke wanted to say, then why do you do such an industry? After thinking about it, I decided that it was better to endure it. If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan. He stood on the mound and sighed, and his bowels were full of sorrow, and he scratched his ears and cheeks, not knowing what to do. He knew that his greatest difficulty lay in the knot in her heart, or rather in her thoughts. And it would be difficult to change her deep-seated beliefs.
Guan Ke stared at Shi Mei's snow-white neck, and then at the small bag hanging from her waist, and his mind moved again, thinking that if he wiped her neck and took her bag, maybe there would be enough cash in it. If a year ago, he would not have thought about such a thing as murder, but since he was about to go into debt, this thought has come to his mind from time to time. He quickly threw the thought out of his mind. Subconsciously--- although he didn't know it--- he had set a rule for himself: if he could, he wouldn't kill anyone.
Shi Mei didn't know Guan Ke's thoughts, so naturally she couldn't imagine that the person standing next to her had a trace of murderous intent. Maybe it's because of Hei that her words have become more and more. "For as long as I can remember, I've seen the cruelty of the world. In the box, boyfriends and girlfriends talk and laugh with each other, but what is the real appearance? Men fall in love with women's beauty, and women fall in love with men's wealth. More than once I have heard my guests wake up in the morning talking to two or three women, and some of them even smile and ask, 'How are you doing?' I ask my guests, 'Who is she?' and my guests smile and say to me, 'My wife.' I asked him, 'Does she not know you're outside?' and the guest continued to smile and replied, 'Of course she understands what I'm doing outside, but just pretends not to know.' We are all old husbands and wives, who doesn't know who, they just know it and don't say it. 'How can man live in such a hypocritical world?'
Guan Ke said: "I always think too much. At the end of the day, it's a matter of perception. Seeing a mountain as a mountain and seeing a mountain as a mountain are two distinct cognitions, but each has its own truth. Maybe what you think is true is false, but what you see is real. Perhaps in the real world there is a story of the prince falling in love with Cinderella, which is why it is broadcast over and over again on TV channels. Maybe the rich man really likes the poor woman, and the poor woman really doesn't just like the wealth of the rich man. The affection between them may really be a natural outpouring. You see, think about it another way, the world is not as bad as you think. “
"But there are so many possibilities in the world!"
Guan Ke looked at Shi Mei's side face and was silent.
A ray of white light poured out from the junction of heaven and earth. The night will be gone, and the morning will come. The two men who had not slept all night did not feel sleepy, they stared intently at the white light, and their eyes did not blink.
Radiance constantly poured out from the junction of heaven and earth, little by little into the black night sky, little by little into the night.
The sun peeks out and drives away most of the darkness in the world. The golden sunlight shone on the road, on the buildings, among the trees, and on the two men and a dog standing on the mound.
Guan Ke pointed to the red sun and said to Shi Mei: "Look, the world is so beautiful, it's because you want to be crooked." “
Shi Mei said indifferently: "That's just a natural phenomenon. When I say the world, I don't mean it. “
After seeing the stars and the rising sun, Shi Mei still has no movement to repay the money. Guan Ke was originally anxious, but after seeing the scene of the rising sun, he calmed down. It is enough that I have seen such beautiful scenery, and as for the rest, let it be left to the arrangement of fate, at least, I have tried.
Shi Mei didn't change anything, and still wandered aimlessly along the street. Her phone was snatched away by the customs customer, and when she turned it off, she didn't want it, she just walked along the sidewalk in a daze, and when she was hungry, she found a restaurant to have a meal, and when she was sleepy, she found a hotel to sleep. She rarely talks to people, and when she looks at the rising sun, she talks the most.
The gateway stuck to her like a bug, keeping five paces away from her at all times. Ah Hei has to let go a lot, either forward or backward, left or right, bouncing and jumping, so uncomfortable. Ever since he saw Hei, he has always been in this noisy appearance. Guan Ke thought about it, and couldn't help but smile at Ah Hei.
Maybe people can realize a lot of beautiful things after they know that they are about to die, such as now, how lucky is life to meet a partner like Ahei?
Hei felt the gaze of his gaze and turned his head to grin at Guan Ke.
Not to be outdone, Guan Ke stuck out his tongue and grimaced.
