169 Viewing the Sea
If it were an ordinary teenager, I am afraid that he would have stopped moving forward in fear. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info But I have also stayed in the barren mountains and mountains, and even wolves and robbers have seen it, so where would they be afraid of this wave?
Liuli said that he wanted to go to the reef cliff near the sea, but he didn't say a word, and went up with her on his back.
When she arrived at the reef cliff, Liuli casually sat down, and Tianci also sat down in her style. The two had nothing to say to each other, only to hear the waves of the sea, wave after wave.
The sound of the waves and the whirring sea breeze are intertwined into a majestic music.
Liuli's heart was very calm, and the Tianci beside her sat for a while, and then she couldn't bear it and said, "Ancestor, you can meditate at home, why do you need to come here?" ā
"Heaven, you see, how wide the sea is, and in front of it, I am as small as a grain of sand. You listen to the waves, wave after wave, endlessly, and the power contained in each wave is so huge. It's hard to imagine that the sea is so big that droplets of water are gathered.
The sea is so wide, no matter what it is, whether it is sediment or fish and shrimp, it is all-inclusive, but it is so silent...... People get a lot from it, but they are never satisfied, and even so, it gives as always. Face to face with it, I feel that my so-called love and hatred that I can't let go of are too small. ā
"Ancestor, you are a human being after all, why do you have to compare with the sea?" God-given is incomprehensible.
Liuli smiled and touched his head, "People are also part of the universe, although they are confined to this skin, but their hearts can also be as vast as heaven and earth. In the past, when I read the Buddhist scriptures, I saw that 'all appearances are false', and I thought I had understood, but now I realize that even if it is just these words, what I understand is only the skin of the skin.
You, Xiaoyu, and Xiaogu all think I know a lot. But actually, what I know is like a drop of water in the ocean. Many, many things I learned from you.
Moreover, I have seen waters 300 billion times larger than the sea in front of me. But in the eyes of others, it was barely a small lake. The world is so big, I don't think it's worth mentioning, but in the past I was always arrogant in my heart. ā
Speaking of this, Liuli paused and said: "Actually, I came here in the middle of the night just to see the sea and reflect on myself." Just now, Jin Shengshi and his wife came over, and I looked very patient on the surface, but in fact, I was impatient at first, and then I became patient...... Sure enough, look at the sea, it's much better. ā
"Ahem...... Ancestor, you are really honest. ā
"I didn't mean to pretend, after all, I'm so old, even if I'm impatient, I have to have strength if I want to lose my temper."
As she spoke, another wave crashed against the reef, splashing on her face, which was also very sour.
"God, why did you run out in the middle of the night?"
"Hehe, I'm just tired of reading, come down and walk around."
"Tell the truth."
"Okay......"
Tianci put away the smile on his face, held his chin with his hand and said, "Ancestor, this place is very different from the Juyan Kingdom. Although the officials of Juyan are also corrupt, the judiciary is independent. It's not like here, it's like a piece of rotten meat soaked in mud. I'm a little confused, I want to be an official because I want to do things for everyone, but I really don't like the officialdom here. ā
"Then now, on the one hand, you are reluctant to want to be an official, and on the other hand, you hate the general environment of Dongzhou Kingdom?" Ruri asked.
Tianci nodded, and Liuli continued: "Let me ask you, do you really want to be an official, do you really want to do something for the people, or do you want to live comfortably for your fame and fortune?" ā
"The former, of course."
"That's right, go back and continue to prepare for the exam. Since you don't want to be comfortable for yourself, what does it matter if the environment is not good? It is precisely because of the corruption of the officialdom of Dongzhou Kingdom that people like you are needed to care for the people to shine. If you are an official of this country, who is very selfless for the country and the people, what do you want to do?
The reason why white is white is because there is a contrast of black. So in a sense, you should also thank Black, without them to compare you, where is your value? ā
Listening to Liuli's words, Tianci was stunned, and Liuli patted him on the back, "The ancestor cheers you up, you are a good person, and a good person should be an official, and he should be a big official!"
Only by occupying a key position can we better promote righteousness and not have any humility on this issue. As long as you have the heart to serve the country and the people, you will boldly move forward, putting aside personal fame and fortune, even God will pave the way for you! ā
"Hmm!"
Tianci nodded fiercely, and suddenly smiled happily, "Ancestor, thank you, I've been struggling with this these days. ā
"Okay, your problem is solved, my problem is solved, let's go back."
"Okay!"
Tianci jumped up and put Liuli on his back again, walked for a while and asked, "Ancestor, don't you have a time when you are confused and entangled?" ā
"Why not, I'm afraid I have more things to worry about than you. To myself, to others, to the world, sometimes I feel very scared, I want to hide but I can't.
To put it simply, I want everyone to be well, no harm, no conflict. I want everyone to be happy and rich, but the reality is the opposite.
I was also at a loss in this environment, not knowing whether to stick to my ideals or go along with the environment. It is impossible to completely adhere to the ideal, and I feel miserable to be completely obedient to the environment, and I want to find a balance, but I always have the power to do so.
I remember my father once said to me that the so-called right path is not up or down, neither left nor right, everything can be handled just right, and all things related to oneself can maintain a stable and uniform trajectory, which is a path that people should take and the realm that they should pursue. ā
"Sounds reasonable......"
Tianci laughed twice, "Ancestor, it's the first time I've heard you talk about your family, what kind of person is that?" ā
"Hmm......" Liuli thought for a long time before saying, "His hair is like a beautiful jade crystal, his eyes are brilliant gold, and I can't remember exactly what his face looks like." ā
"Uh...... It doesn't sound very similar to the old ancestor. ā
At the mention of his father, Liuli became interested, pinched Tianci's ear and said, "Let me down, I'll show you a different look." ā
As soon as Tianci heard this, he also came to the spirit.
After all, he was a young man, and it was impossible for him to have no curiosity about the cultivation world. But Liuli rarely told him about the things in the cultivation world, and he could only ask on the side.
This is the first time that Ruri has taken the initiative to show him something, why is he unhappy? (To be continued.) )
