I was distraught by Frost River's crying, and I didn't know what to say. I subconsciously felt that there was something wrong with Frost River's understanding, but I couldn't say what it was.
I drank the tea from my teacup and tried to make my mind clearer, but it didn't serve any purpose, I still couldn't find any evidence to refute her, and even at last I vaguely felt that she had a point.
Because when I wanted to tell her that she was Qu Yuan's reincarnation, I also hesitated for the same reason.
The atmosphere fell into a complicated silence, and Frost River and I both bowed our heads, and neither of us said a word. But Lige watched the two of us drinking tea cup after cup irritably, and the other couldn't stop crying, and couldn't help but speak on the side:
"Your name... Well... Frost River, it's Frost River, right? Anyway, I used to be half of your teacher, I have something to say, you can listen to me and see if I'm right, how about it?"
None of us thought that Lige would speak at this time, and Shuanghe didn't even react to what the concept of "teacher" in Lige's mouth was, but at this time she was not in the mood to investigate why he would say that he was her teacher, so she just nodded lightly at Lige and motioned for him to continue.
Lige, who was allowed to leave, cleared his throat and began to say seriously:
"You've just asked a lot of whys, and I can't answer every single one of your questions, but there are a few that I feel I can share with you what I think. First of all, I want to ask you a question, have you ever wondered what kind of life you really want?"
Shuanghe was a little dazed by Lige's sudden question, she thought for a long time, and then replied timidly:
"I... I don't have any ideas either... I guess as long as I don't do anything wrong..."
"Each of us, in fact, has deep or shallow expectations for our own lives. You are the same, I am the same, Qu Yuan is the same, everyone is the same. Because there is an expectation, we are all working hard and trying to achieve that expectation. But in fact, this expectation is actually very difficult to achieve in many cases, not because we don't want to, but because there are so many things in this world that we don't expect that will prevent you from fulfilling this expectation. This is like Qu Yuan, he is full of wanting Chu to dominate the world, in his consciousness, Chu is the most powerful of the seven kingdoms, and he should be able to dominate the world. But what was the result? The result was that the state of Chu itself went to extinction, and then gave the state of Qin the opportunity to step on the corpse of the state of Chu and ascend to the throne of dominating the world. Didn't Qu Yuan work hard for his expectations? No, he did, and he did more than many people did, but his expectations were still disappointed in the end, so he gathered so much resentment, and it couldn't be dissipated after several lifetimes. You just said that your name is Shuanghe, and you are not Qu Yuan, but in fact, you are him, but you are him who has no memory. Do you think that reincarnation is to turn everything into a blank sheet of paper and start filling in the drawings again? No, you think that you are wrong, your soul is still Qu Yuan's soul, and you are just changing your body and experiencing a different life again. ”
"I seem to be saying it a little cruelly, but I can't help it, it's really true, you have to believe it, you have to accept it. But don't be too upset, why shouldn't you be too upset? I'm sure you've heard the saying, 'Good and evil will be rewarded in the end, not that the time has not yet come for not retribution.'" It's a cliché, but most people seem to have a misunderstanding of it. You will also ask, why Qu Yuan did so much for the Chu State, but the result was such a sad end, which is not fair, but you think, if it is really unfair, then you will not meet us, and the resentment in your body will not dissipate. So his persistence is rewarded after all, but it is only repaid to you. That's why we need kindness and gentleness. What we do now is not just for the present, but for a long, long time to come. But you don't need to have any burden in your heart because you are the reincarnation of Qu Yuan, because the ones he left you have already been taken away by us, and you can start a new life if you want. This is a gift from his kindness, and he will hope that you will have a happy and fulfilling life. ”
