"If you don't see yourself, you will be clear, if you are not self-right, you will show off, if you are not self-defeating, you will be meritorious, if you are not self-conscious, you will be long, and if you are not in contention, you will not be able to compete with the world." ”

Some bald Chinese teachers explained from the podium: "It means that he does not show himself, does not think of himself, and thus stands out more prominently, does not boast of himself, and therefore has merits, does not think of himself as virtuous, and therefore is respected, and only those who do not compete with others, no one in the world can compete with him."

Speaking of excitement, I couldn't help but add some body language: "This passage fully embodies Lao Tzu's philosophical idea of "weakness is better than strength". Lao Tzu's so-called "indisputable" is not to give up everything, but to be invincible in an invincible position. The ideologies such as "rare confusion" and "suffering loss is a blessing" that were circulated in later generations are not without a source of relationship with Lao Tzu's so-called "indisputable virtue". ”

Chen Kun sat on the desk under the podium and took notes, sitting on the right hand side was Shi Yi, who was still smiling, time had reached the end of the twelfth year in the blink of an eye, and a semester would soon end, but time had its unique charm, no one could stop the annual ring from moving forward, and it would be another year in the blink of an eye.

The bell rang, and Shi Yi beside him poked Chen Kun and said, "What about Christmas today, the class organizes a barbecue by the river in the evening, do you want to go?"

Chen Kun looked at Shi Yi and said, "Are you going?" Chen Kun took the fifth place in the entrance exam, which can be regarded as a justification for himself, and no one questioned Chen Kun going through the back door and not being able to get in the exam, but Chen Kun is not very harmonious, and he is generally unwilling to participate in such activities.

It stands to reason that Chen Kun should be very popular in the class, but in fact, it is really not the case, of course, Chen Kun's cold personality has lost a lot of points, and most of the time in school, Chen Kun is either buried in homework and notes, or mixed with Shi Yi.

Some people chatting with Chen Kun are also polite smiles, a real sense of distance, so the male classmates feel that Chen Kun is not social, and the girls rarely get around Chen Kun when they see Shi Yi.

Shi Yi is different, whether male or female, beautiful, good grades, cheerful personality, popularity is very good, for Shi Yi and Chen Kun, who are obviously cold personalities, play well, many people also think it is strange.

Shi Yi nodded and said, "Go, they're all classmates, let's join in the fun, come with me?"

Chen Kun thought for a while and nodded: "Okay, then I'll accompany you." In fact, most of the time, Chen Kun is reluctant to participate in this kind of activity.

This is the last class at noon, "I'll treat you to dinner at noon, and by the way, can you go buy some snacks?" Chen Kun said.

Shi Yi blinked his big eyes and curled his long eyelashes: "Okay, then wait until I'm done taking notes." ”

At this time, the classmates in the classroom had almost left one after another, Chen Kun got up and walked to the window, looked at the still bright sunlight outside the window and smiled, turned his back against the window and looked at the woman who was writing quietly on the desk, and naturally hugged his hands in front of his chest.

When a person does something quietly, it is extremely beautiful, Chen Kun felt that Shi Yi, who was quietly writing at this moment, was very beautiful, and it was estimated that Shi Kun's face was slightly red when he felt Chen Kun's gaze.

When people are quiet, there are always some incongruous voices, although it is said that the school is less than three months old, the class will also be divided into their own circles and spheres of influence, each class has some outstanding boys, whether it is out of character, or out of the desire to attract the attention of the same age and the opposite sex, will make some out-of-character moves, to bully other children for fun.

Often such people form a circle of their own, with one or two people leading the way, surrounded by a circle of boys who follow each other no matter what purpose they are in, doing some exaggerated and strange things, bullying and bullying classmates, and then enjoying the fearful eyes of others, fluttering in some praise that cannot distinguish between kindness and malice.

Some people call them school bullies, Chen Kun likes to call them class ruffians, such people are actually nothing when they walk out of school, and they may be talking about these guys.

At this time, Zhang Xuan, who led the way back to the classroom, was such a character, followed by two doglegs, and when he entered the classroom and saw Chen Kun and Shi Yi were also there, he was stunned for a moment, "Kunzi and Shi Da Beauty haven't left yet?"

Chen Kun and Zhang Xuan actually don't have any friendship, bullying classmates is too naïve in Chen Kun's opinion, and Zhang Xuan's contrived personality also makes Chen Kun feel annoying.

Zhang Xuan also doesn't like Chen Kun, in Zhang Xuan's opinion, Chen Kun is too cold and arrogant, and his temperament is too independent, and he didn't get Chen Kun's too enthusiastic reply after greeting him a few times, if it weren't for Chen Kun's previous subduing and promising to save his classmates, it is estimated that Chen Kun would have to be bullied.

Of course, whether Chen Kun is afraid or not is another matter for another time.

Chen Kun saw Zhang Xuan's pretended gesture of greeting, Chen Kun smiled and nodded, "Well, let's go." ”

Shi Yi stopped his pen and looked up at Zhang Xuan, his brows furrowed slightly, and it could be seen that Shi Yi didn't like this guy either.

Zhang Xuan said hello, and he didn't pay attention to Chen Kun and Shi Yi, his cousin was Li Xiang, the school's influential figure, and his father was a well-known entrepreneur, so he was somewhat sideways at school.

In his opinion, saying hello can be regarded as giving Chen Kun face, these days he is bullying the class leader A girl is addicted, Su Su is a girl who is usually submissive, and she didn't tell her family when she was bullied, this time I don't know how to reach the teacher's ears, at this time Zhang Xuan should have been criticized by the head teacher and came back to retaliate.

Zhang Xuan scolded and opened Su Su's drawer, because there was still class in the afternoon, most of the students' schoolbags were not carried back at noon, Zhang Xuan turned out Su Su's schoolbag, opened the zipper and kicked a few feet into the schoolbag, followed by Zhang Xuan, there was a man named Wang Jun, picked up the trash can in the back of the classroom and walked over, Zhang Xuan opened the zipper of the schoolbag and poured the garbage in, and the other attendant was not willing to lag behind and poured half a bucket of water into the bucket for cleaning, and several people laughed unscrupulously.

Chen Kun frowned when he looked at it from the side, and Shi Yi walked over and said with an unhappy face: "Let's go." "Things are so helpless, Su Su doesn't resist, and Chen Kun has no way to make a move.

The two of them walked down the stairs side by side, walking down a long staircase, and in the aisle the daffodils were in bloom because of the principal's special preference.

With a strong fragrance to the nose, whether it is a single petal or a double petal of the flowers are blooming, daffodils are extremely beautiful, across the millennium will not regret it, Mo on the agarwood blooms alone, it is said that the daffodils.

The flower language of daffodils is noble and proud, thinking of what Zhang Xuan did in the classroom, Chen Kun's mood felt a little hazy.

Fortunately, daffodils are flowers that like the sun, and there is never a lack of sunshine where there are daffodils, although the time has come to December, the sun is still bright and warm, the breeze is not dry, the sunshine is just right, Shi Yi and Chen Kun walked out of the teaching building, the sun turned on their bodies, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

At this time, the schoolbag dropped from Chen Kun's classroom slammed on the ground, and the soaked schoolbag smashed on the ground and splashed a large amount of water, Su Su's small pink schoolbag was lying alone on the edge of the playground, like a small corpse, which made Chen Kun feel extremely dazzling, and the sewage that flowed out of it was like blood flowing out of the corpse, which shocked Chen Kun.

Equally glaring are the unbridled faces of standing in front of the classroom window pointing at the playground, making exaggerated laughter, and having a face full of unscrupulousness.

Shi Yi frowned: "It's too much." ”

Chen Kun nodded with a gloomy face.

When Chen Kun drove Shi Yi to the flood control embankment, it was already dark, Chen Kun parked the car far away, locked the car door, Shi Yi carried Chen Kun's guitar, Chen Kun carried two plastic bags of snacks, walked down the flood control ladder, under his feet was a large beach that continued to the river, at this time the sky was slightly dark, and several bonfires on the beach had been lit.

I have to say that the beach I chose is really good, the terrain is gentle, there are not many weeds on the sand where the river water recedes, and the sand is very soft and clean.

Christmas has become more and more popular in recent years, and the atmosphere has become more and more intense, but in Chen Kun's view, Christmas without snow has somewhat lacked some atmosphere, but there is less snow in the south, which has always been the case.

The two of them walked to the bonfire and sat down, there were more than 40 people in the class, divided into a few bonfires, Chen Kun and Shi Yi came to this group of boys There are not many, most of them are girls, they basically have a good relationship with Shi Yi, and many of them are still class cadres in the class.

The wood in the sand pit burns, emitting orange light, and also emits heat to warm everyone, taking a few sweet potatoes handed over by the squad leader, Chen Kun gently put them in the hot sand roasted by the bonfire, there are really no decent tools for barbecue in these years, Chen Kun picked up the snacks he brought over and distributed them to the classmates in a circle, and took the guitar handed by Shi Yi and put it at his feet.

At the end of December, the riverside is actually still very cold, but fortunately, the beach is low enough, and the levee blocks some of the cold wind, and I don't feel cold when I sit around the campfire in the sand.

Taking the beer handed over to the side, Chen Kun looked at it, pineapple beer, the degree is really not high, and when he saw Shi Yi opening it and drinking it, Chen Kun also broke it and took a sip, which was slightly sweet.

The whisper of the squad leader came from her ear: "Su Su looked for a schoolbag for a long time this afternoon, and finally turned it out in the garbage can in the playground, it was already dirty, she squatted in the playground alone and cried miserably, she didn't come tonight, Zhang Xuan and they were too much." ”

Listening to the arrogant voice of Zhang Xuan deliberately speaking loudly by the fire that was farther away, he felt very harsh, and his heart was a little irritable, he picked up the beer next to him, took a big sip, picked up the guitar bag, took out the guitar, and said in a low voice: "I'll sing a song to everyone." ”

Shi Yi took the lead and applauded.

Chen Kun fiddled with the strings, tuned the tune, swept the chords and said, "I'll sing a song."

The old song

I sang softly

You take it slowly and

Do you remember

Dreams of the past

That's hopeful

Brilliant years

You and I are for the ideal

It's been hard

We used to cry

We also laughed together

Hopefully you'll remember

Remember forever

We used to have

The kindest days. ”

One song after another, until Chen Kun's voice was slightly hoarse, and his mood slowly improved, he was already surrounded by classmates listening to Chen Kun's singing, looking at the time, in fact, it was late at night, Chen Kun had found Shi Yi more than once looking at the mobile phone she put in her backpack, this should be her father's or mother's phone.

As soon as Chen Kun wanted to say let's go, there was a noisy voice behind him, Zhang Xuan's annoying voice: "Don't go", accompanied by the girl crying: "I'm going home, please."

Chen Kun frowned, put the guitar in his backpack, stood up with Shi Yi, and walked over to the side where the sound was made.

Standing outside the circle for a while, Chen Kun understood the reason, the girl in dispute was called Li Qian, and Chen Kun's ex-girlfriend had a name, and she was a well-known good girl in the class, at this time Li Qian felt a little late, and wanted to go home, Zhang Xuan was playing hard and didn't want her to go, she came out to party purely voluntarily, Zhang Xuan's domineering approach made Chen Kun not like it very much.

At this moment, Li Qian cried and said: "Let me go back, save you, my father will beat me if I go back too late, I will kneel for you, will I kneel for you?"

Chen Kun frowned, handed the backpack on his shoulder to Shi Yi, who also looked unpleasant, patted Shi Yi on the shoulder and took a few steps forward.

Zhang Xuan's smug laughter came from the crowd: "Then you kneel, I'll let you go back if you kneel." Except for a few lackeys of Zhang Xuan in the crowd, most of them were expressionless, and many girls showed unbearable looks.

Through the gap in the crowd, Chen Kun saw Li Qian kneeling down slowly, the female companion next to her tried hard to pull her up, and Zhang Xuan's arrogant voice passed through the crowd: "I won't let you go home if you kneel, I regret it, haha." ”

Chen Kun lined up the crowd on both sides, walked over, and kicked Zhang Xuan in the back, and Shi Yi, who was following behind, looked excited.

The crowd dispersed unconsciously, Chen Kun avoided Wang Jun's punch, turned around and hit Wang Jun's back with an elbow, directly hit the beach, and was punched in the chest by Zhang Xuan's other dead friend, Chen Kun took a step back, grabbed the opponent's fist with one hand that had not been able to retreat, and punched with the other hand, hitting the opponent's lower abdomen three times in a row, directly hitting the opponent to the ground and vomiting.

Raising his head to meet Zhang Xuan's excited expression, Zhang Xuan's eyes were red, and he said with a mouthful of wine: "Is there something wrong with you? Dare to hit me? Lao Tzu has already seen that you are not pleasing to the eye." It can be seen that Zhang Xuan probably drank a lot of wine at night.

Chen Kun said expressionlessly: "You can eat without taste, but if you don't have taste, you are very inferior, it just so happens that I have seen you unpleasant for a long time, don't talk nonsense, come on." Chen Kun gestured to let the horse come.

The long-term training has made Chen Kun grow a lot taller, not particularly tall, but very strong, and the sanda practice in the past few months has also made Chen Kun's ability to resist blows a lot stronger, and he didn't react much when he was punched before.

Zhang Xuan is really not afraid of fighting, he is a sports student, his physical fitness is good, he is more than half a head taller than Chen Kun, he has always been used to being the king, and fighting is also a strength.

Don't give Chen Kun a chance at the moment, when the chest is a punch, as soon as he punches Chen Kun is relieved, although Zhang Xuan's punch is full of strength, but there is no room for it, it can only prove that this guy has not practiced.

Chen Kun took two steps back in a row, looking for an opportunity to suddenly get close, a left and right hook and a top knee action, then turned around, withdrew the elbow blow that was about to hit Zhang Xuan's ribs, grabbed one of Zhang Xuan's arms instead, and threw Zhang Xuan on the sand with an over-the-shoulder slam.

The whole process was less than a minute, Chen Kun's set of actions was really quiet, moving like a rabbit, clean and neat, everyone hadn't come back to their senses, Zhang Xuan was already lying on the ground.

Shi Yi rushed up and kicked at Zhang Xuan, who was lying on the ground, "I've been seeing you unpleasant for a long time." ”

Seeing Chen Kun looking at him with a smile on his face, Shi Yi said to Li Qian, who was standing together, with some embarrassment: "Come with us, I'll let Kunzi send you, and he drove here." ”

Seeing Li Qian looking at him, Chen Kun nodded and said, "Let's go together." He led the way and went outside.

Zhang Xuan was beaten very lightly, especially the blow to the top of the knee in the lower abdomen, he couldn't get up for a while, and the corner of his mouth punched Chen Kun, at this time, the blood at the corner of his mouth lying on the beach flowed out with saliva, and when he saw Chen Kun about to leave, he said: "My brother is Li Xiang, you know, you can't run away if you hit me." ”

Chen Kun didn't stop: "If he is a bastard like you, I don't mind beating him up." The domineering words made Shi Yi on the side frown excitedly.

The crowd gradually dispersed, and the squad leader looked at Chen Kun's distant back and asked the classmates around him, "Shi Yi said that Chen Kun drove, what kind of car did he drive?"

"I don't know, bike. ”

The squad leader watched Chen Kun take Shi Yi, Li Qian and her female companion who had been supporting her, and the group of four walked out of the circle of light of the bonfire, stepped into the darkness, walked through the soft sand, and walked uphill to the flood control, as if they had entered another world.

The headlights of the cars were duly measured on the levee, and the roar of the engines was particularly harsh in the quiet suburbs, and then the cars were dusty and dusty, bringing up the sandy sky.

The squad leader echoed Shi Yi's sentence in his heart: "Chen Kun drove the car." I don't know why, the words of the Chinese teacher in the morning suddenly echoed in my heart, "The husband is indisputable." ”
