In the sky, there are layers of clouds, and spring rain lingers.
The drizzle, which was as fine as a cow's hair, sprinkled down, shrouded Qingmao Mountain in a thin layer of smoke.
The dining hall on the first floor of the inn was still deserted, with only four tables of guests.
Fang Yuan was sitting by the window, and a gust of wind blew, mixed with poetry and floral fragrance.
"The light rain in the sky street is as moist as a crisp, and the grass color is close but there is nothing. Fang Yuan looked at the window from afar and whispered softly, only then did he retract his gaze.
On the table in front of him were good wines and dishes, full of color and flavor. Especially the green bamboo wine, the wine is mellow and fresh. The turquoise liquor is quietly served in a bamboo cup, and from this angle, it has a warm amber sheen.
At the table closest to him were the grandparents and grandchildren. Dressed in plain clothes, they are all mortals.
The old man sipped the rice wine and looked at Fang Yuan's side with envy. Obviously, he was moved by the aroma of green bamboo wine, but he didn't have the money to buy it.
The grandson eats the marinated fragrant beans, biting into the mouth and clicking and jumping. At the same time, he pestered his grandfather and shook the old man's shoulder: "Grandpa, grandpa, tell me the story of the ancestors." If you don't tell me, I'll go back and tell Grandma that you came out to steal wine and drink!"
"Alas, it's not safe to eat a drink. The old man sighed, but a look of love appeared on his face. He touched his grandson's head with his thin hand, "Then I'll tell you about it." It is said that the ancestor gave his heart to Hope Gu and got out of the predicament of round-up......"
The story of the ancestors is the most widely spread and oldest legend in the world.
The story told by the old man goes something like this.
It is said that Renzu got rid of the predicament because of hope. But after all, he was old, he had no strength and wisdom, he could no longer continue hunting, and even his teeth fell out, and many wild fruits and vegetables could not be chewed.
Renzu had already sensed the looming of death.
At this time, Hope Gu told him: "People, you can't die." When you die, your heart is gone, and I hope that you will lose your dwelling place. β
Renzu was very helpless: "Who wants to die, but heaven and earth want me to die, I have to die." β
Hope Gu said, "There is hope for everything." As long as you catch the Shou Gu, you will be able to add a new lifespan. β
Renzu had long heard of Shou Gu's cunzΓ i, but he spread his hands helplessly: "When Shou Gu is still, no one can detect it. When it flies, it is faster than light. How could I possibly capture it. It's so hard!"
Hope Gu told SΓΉ Renzu a secret: "People, don't give up hope in everything. I say to you, that in the northwest corner of the earth there is a great mountain. There is a hole on the top of the mountain, and there are two Gu worms living in the hole. As long as you can subdue these two Gu worms, there is nothing in the world that Gu worms can't catch, even Shou Gu is no exception!"
Renzu is desperate, and this is the only hope he has left.
He exhausted a lot of hardships and found this mountain. and braved all kinds of thrills to climb to the top of the mountain. At the entrance to the cave at the top of the mountain, he had only the last bit of strength left, and he staggered in.
There was darkness in the cave, and the five fingers could not be seen, and the ancestors walked and walked in the dark. From time to time, I bumped into something, and I knocked my head and bleed. Sometimes he felt that the darkness was vast and boundless, as if it were another world, and there was nothing around him except himself.
He spent a lot of time, but he couldn't get out of this vast darkness. Not to mention subduing the two Gu worms on the one side of the circle.
Just as he was in a daze, two voices came from the darkness.
One said, "People, do you want to come and capture us too?" Go back, even if you have the power Gu in your body, it's impossible." β
Another voice said, "Retreat, man, for we will not take your life." Even if you have the help of the Wisdom Gu, you may not be able to find us. β
Ren Zu fell to the ground weakly, panting: "The Power Gu and the Wisdom Gu have long since left me, I have not lived much, and I am desperate." But as long as there is a glimmer of hope in my heart, I will not give up!"
Hearing Ren Zu's words, the two voices fell silent.
After a long while, he said, "I understand, man, you have already given your heart to Hope Gu. You're saying that you won't give up. β
Another voice continued, "In that case, we'll give you a chance." Just name both of us and we'll be there for you. β
Renzu was stunned, and to accurately call out two accurate names from the sea of words, this is simply looking for a needle in a haystack.
Moreover, he didn't even know how many words there were in the names of these two Gus.
Renzu hurriedly asked Hope Gu, but Hope Gu didn't know.
Renzu had no other way out, so he had to bite the bullet and say his name. He said so many names, and it took a long, long time, but there was no response in the dark, and it was obvious that they were all called wrong.
Gradually, the breath of the ancestor became weaker and weaker, and in this cave he moved from old age to twilight. It's like the sunset in the evening, gradually falling, and half of it has already set the sky, becoming the sunset.
He brought less and less food with him, his brain turned slower and slower, and he didn't have much strength to speak.
The voice in the darkness persuaded, "Man, you are dying, let you go." While you're in your last days, you can climb outside the cave and get a final look at the world. But if you offend us, as punishment, leave the Hope Gu here for us to be our companion. β
Renzu covered his heart tightly and categorically refused: "Even if I die, I will not give up hope!"
Hope Gu was very moved, and tried his best to respond to Renzu, emitting a white glow. In the heart of the ancestor, a little white light appeared.
But this white light was too weak to illuminate the darkness at all, and it couldn't even take care of the whole body of the human ancestor, so it could only illuminate the chest.
Ren Zu felt an invisible new strength pouring into his body from the Hope Gu.
He continued to speak, saying names. He was already old and confused, and he had said many names before, but he couldn't remember clearly, and he said it again, and it was a waste of effort.
Life is passing with time, and the life span of human ancestors is running out.
Finally, when he only had one day left to live, he uttered the word "moment".
A sigh came from the darkness, and a voice said, "Man, I admire your persistence. You name it, and from today onwards, I will listen to your commands. But I can only catch the Gu worms in the world for you if I am with my brother. Otherwise, relying on my Gu ability alone, it won't work. So you give up, you're already dying, you might as well use the world and take one last look at the world. β
Ren Zu shook his head firmly, he grabbed a moment and continued to speak, guessing the name of the other Gu worm.
Minutes and seconds passed, and he only had one hour left.
But at this moment, he inadvertently said the word "regulation".
Suddenly, the darkness vanished.
Two Gu appeared in front of him. As the Hope Gu said, a Gu is square, called a "moment". A Gu is round, which is called "Gui". Taken together, it is the "rules".
The two Gu opened their mouths in unison: "No matter who it is, as long as he knows our name, we will obey him." Man, since you already know our names, we are at your disposal. But you have to remember that it's best not to let other creatures know our names. The more we know our names, the more we have to submit to them at the same time. Now, you are the first to submit to us, say what you ask. β
Renzu was overjoyed: "Then I will order you to catch a Shou Gu for me first." β
The two rules Gu worked together to capture an eighty-year-old longevity Gu.
Renzu was already a hundred years old, and after eating this Shou Gu, all the wrinkles on his face were suddenly eliminated, and his thin limbs were filled with toned muscles, and the breath of youth was exuded again.
He jumped up as soon as he got a carp.
He looked at his body with joy and knew that he had become a twenty-year-old again!
β¦β¦
"That's all for today, go home, good grandson. When the old man finished telling the story, he ran out of wine.
"Grandpa, why don't you continue to talk, what happened to Renzu later?" the grandson didn't follow, shaking the old man's arm.
"Let's go, I'll talk about it when we have time. The old man put on a hat and a coat, and put on a trumpet for his grandson.
The grandfather and grandson walked out of the inn, stepped into the rain curtain, and gradually drifted away.
"Rules ......" Fang Yuan's eyes were gloomy, turning the wine glass, staring at the green bamboo liquor in the cup, and his heart was quite touched.
The legend of the ancestor is widely spread in this world, and there are almost no people who don't know it. Fang Yuan had naturally heard of it a long time ago.
It's just that whether it's a legend or a story, it's the opinion of the benevolent and the wise. Just now, the two of them just regarded it as a story, but Fang Yuan could taste the deep meaning contained in it.
It's like that human ancestor.
When he didn't know the rules, he groped in the dark. Sometimes stumbling and bumping, making the head bleed, and the wolf bèi is unbearable. Sometimes, it's vast, confused, directionless, and goalless.
This darkness is not simply black or dark, and strength, wisdom, and hope cannot restrain it.
Only when the ancestor knew the "rules" and broke the name of the rules, the darkness suddenly disappeared, and the ancestors ushered in the light.
Darkness is the darkness of rules, and this light is also the light of rules.
Fang Yuan took his gaze away from the wine glass and looked out the window.
I saw that in the distance outside the window, the sky was gloomy and dark, the green mountains were verdant, and the drizzle was like mist. In the near distance, tall bamboo buildings stretch out one after another. There were two or three pedestrians on the road, their feet stained with rain and cement, either wearing gray and green coats or buttercloth umbrellas.
Fang Yuan summed up in his heart: "This heaven and earth is like a big chessboard, all living beings are chess pieces, running according to their own rules. There are rules in the four seasons, and spring, summer, autumn and winter cycle in order. There is a rule in the flow of water, and it flows to a lower place. The heat has a rule, and it rises to a higher place. People naturally have rules. β
"Everyone has their own position, ** and principles. Take Guyue Cottage as an example, the life of a slave is cheap, and the life of a master is expensive, this is the rule. Therefore, Shen Cui wanted to cling to the powerful and tried his best to get out of slavery. The high bowl does everything possible to please the master, and the dog fights the human power. β
"For my uncle and aunt, I am greedy and want to annex my parents' inheritance. The elders of the academy are mainly cultivating Gu masters and maintaining their own status in the academy. β
"Everyone has their own rules, every industry has its own rules, and every social group has its own rules. As long as you understand the rules, you can clear the bystanders. Go to the darkness and get the light, and maneuver around in it, and be at ease. β
Fang Yuan thought about his own situation again, and he had already planned in his heart: "For Gu Yue Mochen, the ruler of the Mo family, it is to maintain the prosperity and interests of the original lineage. Mo Yan is already breaking the rules when he asks me for trouble, and in order to protect the family's reputation, he will definitely not do anything to me. They may even offer to compensate me. β
"In fact, the Mo family is powerful, and with the damage of reputation, they want to punish me, and I am powerless to resist. But Gu Yue Mochen was afraid in his heart. He is not afraid that he will break the rules, but he is worried that others will follow him and start to break the rules. Junior fighting, if the elders intervene, the situation will expand, if it affects the high-level, it will be a huge threat to the entire cottage. Gu Yue Mochen was worried and afraid that if he fought in the future, someone else would attack his grandson Gu Yue Mobei. What if he dies? This kind of fear, maybe even he doesn't know it. He just subconsciously wanted to uphold the rules. β
Fang Yuan's eyes were clear, and he was aware of this matter from beginning to end.
Gao Wan is not surnamed Gu Yue, he is an outsider and a slave.
What does it matter if the master executes a slave? In this world, normal is very.
Fang Yuan killed the high bowl. Gao Wan's death is not the key, the key lies in his master, the Mo family behind him.
"However, I sent a box of broken corpses this time, and it is estimated that Gu Yue Mochen will interpret it as a compromise and threat. That's what I want him to understand. Not surprisingly, the Mo family will not pursue Gao Wan's death. Of course, if my qualifications are one level higher, a second class, the Mo family will feel threatened, and with the damage to my reputation, they will also suppress me, a threat to the future. Fang Yuan sneered in his heart.
The strong can be relied upon, and the weak can also be used.
Although Fang Yuan was in the game at this time, he was also a chess piece. But he is proficient in the rules in his heart, and he already has the heart of a chess player.
Most of the ordinary characters are just similar to Gu Yue Mochen or the elders of the school, and they only know their own rules, and they are like mountains across the line. Like Fang Yuan, how difficult it is to have insight into the overall situation and be proficient in the rules!
To know the rules, you have to be like the ancestors, crawling in the dark, confused and wandering.
At this time, strength, wisdom, and hope are not very effective. You have to spend time and experience to gain experience.
The name of the two Gu that the human ancestor was able to break the rules took time, and under the shroud of death, he tried countless times.
Fang Yuan's ability to master the rules was also the experience accumulated in his previous life for five hundred years.
Since his rebirth, he is confident that he can create a brilliant future. It's not because of the reappearance of the Spring and Autumn Cicada, it's not because he knows a lot of secret realm treasures, and it's not because he has mastered the general direction of the future.
It's the life experience of being a human being in the past 500 years in the past 500 years.
Just as the ancestor of the people has mastered the rules of the two Gu, he can easily catch ten thousand insects in the world!
And Fang Yuan is proficient in rules and regulations, so he can be condescending and see through the complicated world. Or peel off the cocoon, or hit the nail on the head. I laughed arrogantly, and looked at the people of the world like chess pieces, following their own rules and marching step by step.
Darkness is the darkness of rules, and light is the light of rules.
And the reborn Adversary has walked in the light.
