Chapter 12, a little cute weird old man

"Come and see, over there." The old man didn't answer Xiao Feng's question directly, but pointed to a middle-aged man over there.

The middle-aged man was also fishing, but he always sat down one moment, got up again, and then, walking around the shore, seemed impatient.

"His nickname is 'Lao Urgent', an acute son. The old man couldn't sit still, so he was about to get up for a while, and when he saw the slightest movement of the fishing line, he impatiently pulled up the fishing rod. But every time I didn't catch a fish. Occasionally catching one or two is also lucky. ”

"Oh." Xiaofeng looked at the man and smiled.

He remembered his mother at home, who was also like this man, in a hurry, and he didn't know what he was anxious about all day long.

"This fish, when they bite the hook, they usually try it first, that is, touch it lightly." The old man began to talk about the "Fishing Sutra": "If you are in a hurry at this time and pull up the rod, as soon as it feels a movement, it will immediately run away." Therefore, the angler should not be in a hurry, and wait until the rod is really moving, which means that the fish has eaten the whole bait, and has been caught by the hook, and is struggling. At this time, as soon as you catch it, the big fish will come up. ”

"So, for this success, you have to be patient. If you don't have patience, you can't get anything done. The old man took a cigarette out of his pocket, smoked it, and puffed out the white smoke rings pleasantly.

Xiaofeng didn't like others smoking in front of him the most, but in order to find out more secrets of success, he still forced himself to sit next to the old man.

"It's as simple as that?" Xiao Feng saw that the old man hadn't spoken for a long time, and asked.

"That's right. It's as simple as that. The old man replied.

"That's too pediatric, isn't it?" Xiaofeng thought that this old man said something profound, it turned out to be this kind of truth that the kindergarten teacher told the children. "What's the difference between you and the tortoise and the hare race? Yes, rabbits run fast, but they are impatient. The turtle climbed slowly, because of patience, and won the championship after the last time. Isn't it? ”

"Huh. There is nothing wrong with that. But I don't want you to be a turtle. The old man smiled.

"Cut, how am I a turtle and you are a turtle?" Xiaofeng pouted, "Your whole family is a turtle?" ”

Unexpectedly, this old man was not angry, this girl's temper is really super good, maybe it was practiced by fishing, right?

"Hehe, call me a turtle, it's good, turtle turtle, live a long life."

This old man is quite open-minded, huh? Everything is on the good side.

"Young man, you haven't answered my question yet? Why are you throwing money at my basket? ”

"It's not easy. I see that you are pitiful, and I give you alms. Xiaofeng said disapprerovingly.

"Oh." The old man nodded, "It seems that your heart is not bad." ”

"That's right, my heart is healthy, of course it's not bad."

"Well, so, that's the second point I told you, those who know how to give can succeed!" The old man threw a little more unhurriedly.

"Oh? I don't think I used to throw money at the beggars on the side of the road, but I didn't get rich. Xiaofeng retorted.

"Hehe, giving is receiving, this truth, you will understand in the future."

Xiao Feng seems to have heard this sentence, as if he wrote it in some book.

Xiaofeng often invites fat pigs to dinner, but he doesn't see any benefits?

On the contrary, the more generous you are, the poorer you are now.

"The third point. I ask you, young man, do you know where your strengths are? ”

Xiaofeng thought for a while and said, "I don't have any strengths, huh?" Oh, I ran well and won a good place. ”

Xiaofeng's academic performance is not good, and he is naughty and mischievous, he didn't learn martial arts, and he didn't succeed in picking up girls. Only this long-distance run is slightly stronger than others.

Just now, wasn't Shi Wuxian chased by him and almost vomited blood?

"Alas!" Xiao Feng recalled the embarrassed appearance of being beaten to the ground just now, and sighed.

"What's wrong, little brother? What are you sighing for? The old man asked.

"I'm sighing to myself, except for the long run, nothing else." Xiaofeng told the truth.

"You're a long runner, isn't that your advantage?"

"What kind of advantage is that? You mean, let me join the track and field team? Xiaofeng shook his head, "Forget it, at my level, I can't run any rankings in the track and field team, so let me go." ”

"Young man, you should be confident!" The old man grabbed Xiao Feng's hand, "Don't you see the sparkle on your body?" ”

Xiao Feng's hand was numb from the old man's grasp, and he pulled it out fiercely.

What do you want to do, old man? Master, I don't have the time to accompany you!

"Flashpoint?" Xiaofeng said self-deprecatingly, "I'm not a Flash, I can't generate electricity on my body, what kind of light is flashing?" ”

"Hahaha!" The old man laughed, "You're so funny! ”

Immediately, he stared at Xiao Feng's face and looked at it.

Xiaofeng was a little hairy by him.

"You, what are you doing? What do I have to look at? I warn you, don't beat my mind, I, I'll call the police! ”

"Where do you want to go, young man? By the way, have you ever run a marathon? ”

"Of course, I run a marathon once a year, and I finish it every time." Xiaofeng puffed up her chest proudly.

"Awesome!" The old man actually gave a thumbs up.

This is the only thing that Xiaofeng is proud of. In the whole year, none of the boys and girls in the whole school ran the whole marathon, which was 42.195 kilometers.

Recalling the taste of running a marathon, Xiaofeng still sighs with emotion.

Every time he participates in a marathon, he can feel the tangled mood and physical pain in the middle of the race.

Every time, he wanted to quit halfway, gave up, and stopped running.

But each time, he gritted his teeth and ran the whole way.

After running to the bottom, it was as if this leg was no longer my own, but someone else's, even a lifeless thing.

Running the whole marathon is a victory for Xiaofeng, a victory in life.

It's a pity that in other aspects of life, Xiaofeng has not found this feeling of success so far.

"Young man, you can run the whole marathon, that's your advantage, it's where others are not as good as you. So, you don't have low self-esteem. The old man took another puff on his cigarette and said, "How many people are inferior to you in this regard?" That's where you can succeed in the future! ”

"What kind of advantage is that?" Xiaofeng sighed, "I can't get any rankings at all with this achievement." And I'm just more persistent than others. ”

"That's right, persistence is victory!" The old man's voice raised, "Young man, this is the secret of success, persistence is victory!" ”

"Young man, no matter what happens to you in the future, you have to persevere, as long as you persevere, everything is possible!" The old man continued, "Young man, your strength lies in your stamina, you can persevere, and you must play to this advantage of yourself. Don't compare your weaknesses with others, remember, compare your own strengths with others, don't compare your weaknesses with them! ”

"Oh?" Xiao Feng began to understand a little, "Uncle, you mean that I want to compare patience and perseverance with others. ”

"That's right." The old man nodded approvingly, "If you're a tortoise, don't you want to run as fast as you can, no matter how fast you are, you can outrun a rabbit?" ”

"I can't." Xiaofeng shook his head, he already thought of himself as a turtle.

"Can you compare the sharpness of your teeth to a tiger? Can you compare to the size of an elephant? Can you climb a tree like a monkey? The old man said several animals in a row, "So, what you have to compare with others is your endurance." If you have an opponent, you must not face him head-on, you must learn to be patient, learn to persevere, learn to grow over time, and eventually, over time, your endurance advantage will be brought into play. ”

"Oh?" Xiaofeng's eyes lit up, as if a golden gate had appeared in front of him.

"Sesame, let's go!" Xiao Feng imagined that he was the Ali Baba and shouted at the gate. Then the door opened, and gold, jewels, and beautiful women welcomed him inside.

Among that beauty, there is Qin Xiaoyu, who is smiling to welcome Xiaofeng's arrival.

Xiaofeng couldn't help but shed tears and tears? No, it's not.

What he drooped was his own saliva.

The old man was startled by Xiao Feng, and thought he was a fool.

"You, why are you drooling?" The old man asked.

Xiaofeng hurriedly wiped off this harazi with his hand, and said with a smile: "Hehe, it's okay, it's okay." As soon as I hear something nice, I flow this thing. ”

"Oh, that's right." The old man suddenly realized, "Conditioned reflex? Fortunately, you're not like me, as soon as I'm excited, I'll have another reaction. ”

"Oh? What is the reaction? Xiaofeng asked curiously.

Unexpectedly, this old man actually blushed and lived like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl.

Suddenly, Xiaofeng smelled a smell that could make the fairy faint and make the beauty vomit to death, and he also heard a muffled sound.

Xiaofeng couldn't stand it anymore, so he covered his nose and ran.

"Come back, come back, come back, young man!" The old man was waving at him.

Xiao Feng didn't dare to come back, and walked up and down the side of the road, until he was sure that the smell should have disappeared with the wind, and then turned back.

"Uncle, you, you're too good at this fart, right?" Xiaofeng said with a bitter face.

"Well, it's okay, this one belongs to the seven-level typhoon. I'm not particularly excited today, but if I'm very excited, I'll release level twelve. The old man said very seriously.

Damn, twelve, what's that level? Doesn't that bring down the Jade Emperor in the sky?

"Uncle, you, don't let it go again! Spare the little one, the little one I have a nose allergy, I can't stand your old man's fragrant fart. Xiao Feng put on a very pained expression.

"Well said, well said." The old man smirked, "I'm also a self-defense weapon, if I meet bad people, I'll fart when I'm nervous, so they'll be scared away by me." ”

The first time I heard that farting is also self-defense, you are a weasel?

"Speaking of which, that's my strength." The old man was happy again, "Young man, you can also find other advantages in yourself in the future." Oh, it's getting late, I'm going back. ”

"Uncle, are you here every day?" Xiaofeng asked.

Xiaofeng began to like this farting old man. Not to mention, what this old man said to himself today still made him happy.

"yes, I come here every day to fish. If you come over in the future, you can come to me. The old man smiled and said, "My surname is Wu, and everyone calls me Lao Wu, you can ask the people here casually." ”

"That's good. That uncle, I'll come to you when I'm free in the future. ”

"Welcome, welcome!" The old man mentioned his fishing guy and patted Xiao Feng on the shoulder, "Young man, do a good job!" The future is immeasurable, the future is immeasurable! ”

Unlike the blind fortune teller's nonsense, Xiao Feng preferred the old man's style of speaking, and he didn't think the old man was complimenting him.

Perhaps, the advantages in yourself are really as the old man said, can make yourself successful in the future?

However, now Xiaofeng doesn't even have half a dime on him.

What should I do if I promised the fat pig a supper at night?
