Chapter 13 The Bright Moon and Pine Photos
Practicing calligraphy according to the calligraphy given by Guo Pu, Xie Xiaoman's wrist hurt, and he still didn't feel that he had made any progress.
Is it true that there is no talent for this? Xie Xiaoman thought like this, looking at the starry sky outside the window in a daze.
After leaving an ugly word and a poem by Tao Yuanming, he flew away, and I don't know how the current Xie family will comment on themselves, and how Uncle Xie An will explain his escape.
Although it was only half a year, looking back at this time, everything was like a dream, as if it had never been experienced.
The distant mountains are secluded, and the moon is on them. Xie Xiaoman suddenly remembered that Uncle Xie An seemed to be able to see Dongshan in his study in Huiji City......
"Homesick?" Guo Pu appeared outside the window at some point, half of his head exposed, with his back to him.
"I can't say it," Xie Xiaoman put down the pen in his hand and put his hands on his cheeks, "I just think that things in the world are really ...... It's complicated! ”
After thinking about it for a long time, it seems that only this adjective is worthy of the word "world".
Guo Pu let out a chuckle: "You say this, like a little old man." ”
"Old and old, who knows." Xie Xiaoman smiled lazily.
"The matter of the fish demon, I figured it out."
"There's nothing you don't understand." Xie Xiaoman shook his head with a smile, "You told me that those monsters are all unenlightened and act on instinct. The instinct of life is nothing more than the continuation of life, and it is not unusual to do anything for such a purpose. The fish demon ...... In fact, if you think about it, it's nothing, it's just predatoring, and although it looks really aesthetically lacking, it's really just predatoring. It has no formal training and certainly does not know how to use knives and forks. ”
Automatically ignoring the confusing part of Xie Xiaoman's words, Guo Pu said: "In fact, in the final analysis, the most difficult thing in this world to distinguish is good and evil. ”
"Well, it's the hardest, but actually, it's the easiest."
"Oh?"
"Everyone has their own moral standards in their hearts, and this can be clearly understood by asking everyone's heart. What some people think is impossible may not be completely impossible in the minds of others. For example, if you know that Passerby A will kill three people in a year, will you kill Passerby A now? Killing one person and saving three people may be cost-effective. But other people, like me, can't do it, because I can't do it if someone doesn't punish someone for a crime they haven't committed, even if it's 100 percent going to happen. ”
"Your example is really peculiar. However, there is some truth to it. ”
Xie Xiaoman stroked the broken hair around his ears and said with a smile: "What I read in the book, this kind of moral issue is too complicated. If you can save a hundred people by killing one person, most people will choose to kill him even if that person is innocent. But what if the number changes? If you kill ninety-nine people, you can save another hundred people, how to choose? ”
Guo Pu frowned.
"I didn't let you really choose, but you really thought about it?" Xie Xiaoman chuckled, "Actually, I don't think it matters, there is no right or wrong in this kind of thing, it's just that everyone adheres to a different moral bottom line." There is no need to impose one's own morality on others, and there is no need to judge oneself by the morality of others. Moral kidnapping is itself an immoral thing...... Far away, in fact, I just want to say that there is a red thread in my heart, and there are some things that I don't understand, but I can try to understand. For example, this fairy road is slow, and there are animal instincts, human instincts......"
Xie Xiaoman quieted down, and Guo Pu may have been speechless for a long time.
The sky is full of stars, which is a scene that the world can hardly see in a thousand years, and the starry Milky Way across the sky, the feeling of sparkling brilliance is too eye-catching.
That's the Milky Way, how many planets are gathered there, and how small is the Earth in comparison?
Take a deep breath, the wet breath of the mountains and forests will drill straight into the nose, full of the smell of green plants, fresh and almost tearful.
Xie Xiaoman's heart moved at will, and he chanted softly: "After the new rain in the empty mountain, the weather is late in autumn. The bright moon shines among the pines, and the clear spring stone is upstream. The bamboo noise returns to the Huannu, and the lotus moves the fishing boat. Feel free to rest in spring, and the kings and grandchildren can stay. ”
Guo Pu didn't look back, but Xie Xiaoman could feel his flickering gaze. Xie Xiaoman couldn't help laughing: "Guo Pu, when we get acquainted a little more, I will know you a little more, and I will tell you some hidden secrets." At that time, you'll tell me some of the hidden things, right? ”
Guo Pu didn't speak, only the sound of the wind outside the window.
Xie Xiaoman was slightly stunned in his heart, thinking that it didn't matter if he didn't get a reply, and was about to start practicing calligraphy again, but he heard a very low "um" outside the window, and it was Guo Pu who responded.
"Really...... Tsundere. Xie Xiaoman chuckled, looked at the calligraphy written by Guo Pu in front of him, and sneered, "But speaking of which, I don't think this character is written very well!" No wonder I haven't been able to practice, it must be because the post itself is not good enough! It's useless to practice it! Ahh
Xie Xiaoman wailed because she was carried into the air by Guo Pu as if she was being picked up in the air, and she was thrown into a bush outside the window.
Turning over and sitting up, Xie Xiaoman blew off the straw stick on top of his head, and pouted: "You are an old man, as an immortal cultivator, can't you be pampered and not shocked?" When will you attain enlightenment when you are so restless? Hey, it's such a big person, and it's still worrying......"
"Dead girl......" Guo Pu cursed, but he didn't know how many twists and turns he had already made in his heart. Originally, I came to enlighten this dead girl, but who knows, but I was directly touched by this girl's questions one after another, and I was a little confused.
I don't know where this girl got these things, but ...... There's some truth to that.
Thinking like this, Guo Pu looked at the bright moon in Matsuma and smiled.
……
……
Entering the country in his sleep at night, Xie Xiaoman suddenly found that the flames had increased a lot, and he was only one step away from showing the color of the five elements.
Xie Xiaoman couldn't help but be overjoyed, thinking that it turned out that fighting monsters and cultivating in the valley was really much faster than cutting trees to enter the realm.
In the end, it is different from actual combat, accumulating merit at the same time, but also exercising the mind, such as what we have experienced today, which is something that we cannot experience after cutting down trees for decades.
It's just that there are too many things on this long road, and Xie Xiaoman doesn't understand.
Don't rush, take your time.
Doing what is in front of you is practice.
The most important thing for me now is to figure out my five element attributes. Now, according to this, there is really only one step away.
