Chapter 82: Gathering Strength in Tranquility

It was a pleasant evening, with only one feeling in the whole body, and joy was soaked in every mao hole.

I came and went in nature in a strange and free way, becoming a part of herself. I wore only my shirt and walked along the shore of the hard rock, and although the weather was cold, cloudy and windy, there were no special distractions, and the weather was unusually suitable for me.

The bullfrog chirps, inviting the night, and the music of the nighthawk comes from the lake in the wind that blows ripples. The swaying alder and aspen, jī aroused my emotions so that I could barely breathe; Yet like the water of a lake, my tranquility has only ripples and no jīdang. Like the mirrored lake, the evening breeze is nothing like a storm. Although it was dark, the wind was still blowing and roaring in the forest, the bo1ang was still lapping the shore, and some animals were still hypnotizing others with their music, tranquility could not be absolute. The most ferocious beasts have no tranquility and are now seeking their prey; Foxes, skunks, rabbits, too, roam the wilderness, in the forest, but they have no fear, they are the guardians of nature - the chain that connects the vibrant day.

By the time I got home, there were visitors who had left their business cards, not a bunch of hua, but a ring of a tree or a name written in pencil on a yellow walnut leaf or wood chip. People who don't often enter the forest often take the xiao things in the forest in their hands along the way, sometimes intentionally, sometimes accidentally, and leave them behind. One of them peeled off the bark of a willow tree, made it into a ring, and threw it on my desk.

When I went out of the mén, I always knew if there were any guests, either the branches or the grass were bent, or there were shoe prints, and generally speaking, I could guess their age, xìng and xìng from the traces they left behind; Some of them fell down, some grabbed handfuls of grass and threw them away, and some even took them to the railroad half a mile away before throwing them away; Sometimes, the smell of cigar smoke or pipe lingers. Often I could notice from the smell of the pipe a traveler on the highway sixty rods away.

Once the work of translation has found the trick, the original meaning and charm of the original author, the other work has a sense of naturalness, unless it encounters some obscure sentence or a hidden allusion.

After being guided by Barkin, Govin finally began his translation career. Although Ba Jin is the chairman of the China Federation of Literary and Art Circles, because he is too old, he actually does not have many opportunities to go out, which may be due to the fact that his staff are not willing to disturb the peace of the elderly too often. And in such a quiet environment, translating such a quiet, tranquil but full of wisdom, Govin's jīng divine temperament has also undergone a completely different change, and the anger, depression and even ridiculousness of the previous days have all disappeared without a trace in these days. The hustle and bustle of the outside world has long faded out of his mind, and even "New Zhou Evening News" or Duan Qigang, if it weren't for the humility of the law, he wouldn't have bothered to go to the court.

The long-awaited defamation case finally came to an end, and the New Zhou Evening was sentenced to publicly apologize to Govin in the newspaper and pay 230 yuan in compensation for the loss of reputation; Duan Qigang, on the other hand, was more unfortunate, and according to the provisions of the criminal law, in addition to compensating Govin for the loss of God's money, he was imprisoned and had to spend his 1983 and 1984 years in prison.

This result also gave Govin a sigh of relief for himself, and the reports that came from it were overwhelming, but he hid in Ba Jin's house, ignoring what was going on outside the window and reading the books of the sages.

At this time, Govin already knew the real reason why Ba Jin wanted him to stay by his side to help, not because of the lack of people around Ba Lao, but because Ba Lao was unwilling to let the outside public opinion affect his state of mind. As Gao Lin, the editor-in-chief of the editorial department, told him: no matter how talented a person is, if he is in an environment where he is praised and praised every day, he will also destroy himself because of laziness and pride, and the story of the ancient wound Zhongyong is a living example. What's more, Gowen, you are too famous and too young now, the so-called Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, and naturally there will be many media reports that you can't look at from all aspects. At this time, it is definitely not a bad thing to be quiet for a while.

When Govin knew the deep meaning of Mr. Ba Jin, he couldn't help but be greatly moved, and finally decided to settle down and cultivate his state of mind. At this time, if you really live in a life surrounded by media all day long, even if you can be strong in the past, you will definitely be physically and mentally exhausted. It is better to sink down and accumulate your energy and will. The reason why a successful person can succeed is not only his own ability and knowledge, but more importantly, he must have the kind of indomitable and indomitable jīng god!

As a result, Govin disappeared from the public eye, and although there was still news about Govin in the newspapers, all the articles about him were about him, and the speeches about Govin and his recent movements never appeared in any of the newspapers again.

On the one hand, Govin continued to learn all kinds of knowledge from books, newspapers and periodicals, and under the guidance of Ba Jin, not only creation, but also other knowledge, and he also seriously thought about and studied other knowledge, philosophy, art, education, history, and even economics He was also hungry and thirsty to absorb the knowledge that he could. As Mr. Ba Jin said: An excellent writer must not only be familiar with life, accumulate life, and use correct ideas to understand and refine life; More importantly, he must also study carefully, absorb nutrition, and constantly enrich his knowledge in all aspects.

Govine's goal is very clear, he wants to learn from Mr. Ba Jin, that is, to become a great writer and a cultural giant like Mr. Ba Jin.

In later generations, there were many writers, but none of them were truly regarded by the public as cultural giants. And none of the writers of Mr. Ba Jin's generation are versatile and have profound attainments in literature and art, they not only have many works, but they are also masters in other fields. For example, Ba Jin, the old man is not only a writer, but also a publisher and translator; Another example is Guo Moruo, who is famous for his poetry collection "NV God", he is not only a family, but also a historian, paleographer, and social activist; For example, Lao She, Ai Qing, Bingxin, etc., all have outstanding achievements in other fields other than writing.

In order to realize your ideals, in order to make more people agree with your own ideas, you must not only be a writer, but also have enough achievements and enough influence in other fields!

More importantly, it is not that what you think is right is necessarily correct, only by constantly studying and thinking can you try your best to ensure that you grasp the truth, and can you avoid making even greater mistakes because of your own mistakes!

So time is really tight, and I don't have much time to spend 1ang fees!

After translating the "Loneliness" section of Walden, Govin put down his pen, rubbed his sour eyes, rested for a moment, and then leaned down to translate another article.

Ba Jin, who was sitting on a chair reading not far away, looked up at Govyn's diligent appearance, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily smiled.
