Chapter 618: Right and Wrong, Good and Bad
Chapter 618
Capital.
The first snow of winter fell on this weekend afternoon.
On the campus of Huaqing University, Su Chunfeng, who was wearing a casual fur collar and black leather coat, walked side by side on the winding path between the lakeside green space with a relaxed expression and a high ponytail tied into a high ponytail with his hair like snow and leather shoes.
"My brother is at Huaqing University, and you don't sue me, it's too interesting, right?" Bai Xingyong said with a smile.
"He's not a kid, and he needs extra attention. Besides, this is Huaqing University, not those junior and senior high schools in my hometown, where children in the rebellious period are noisy and worried that they will be bullied. Su Chunfeng smiled and waved his hand to his younger brother who was leaving with his roommates in the distance, and said, "My family doesn't know that I am a warlock, and they don't know that there is a Qimen Jianghu CunzΓ i. As for me, I don't want them to know these things, so that they don't have to worry about them every day. β
Last night, my mother called, saying that it was going to snow in the capital according to the weather forecast, so I asked Su Chunfeng to help buy a down jacket for Xiaoyu - the so-called mother is worried, even if the child is an adult, but in the eyes of the mother, it will never grow up, and it will always need to be cared for by the mother.
This morning, Su Chunfeng made an appointment with Wang Haifei to go shopping outside, and bought Xiaoyu a down jacket, a pair of pants, and a pair of leather shoes by the way...... After lunch, Wang Haifei was sent back to school, and Su Chunfeng took a taxi directly to Huaqing University.
As soon as he handed over the newly bought clothes to his younger brother, Su Chunfeng met Bai Xingyong, who happened to be passing by.
"Intend to hide it for the rest of your life?" Bai Xingyong habitually raised his hand and stroked the top of his head like snow and silver.
"I hope so." Su Chunfeng said with a smile.
Bai Xingyong seemed to understand the pain in Su Chunfeng's heart, patted him on the shoulder with a little sympathy, and said: "Relax, the incidents you have done in the past few years have caused a sensation in the rivers and lakes, plus this time even Li Quanyou was defeated in the battle with you, and he lost cleanly. β
"I hope so." Su Chunfeng didn't want to talk more about this topic, so he said, "Have you been busy in the association recently?" β
Bai Xingyong looked at him with some surprise.
"Last time, I promised that big man to be a good vice president, and he was willing to let me go." Su Chunfeng shook his head with a smile and said, "A gentleman's words, a quick whip, even if you are a good person, you have to ask, otherwise you think that my temperament will be willing to ask about the affairs of the association?" Luckily, I'll be graduating by the end of next spring, so you'll have to help me do a good job. β
"Damn." Bai Xingyong suddenly realized and said: "I said why did you suddenly pay attention to the affairs of the association, and you even participated in the association's meeting recently, and when there are activities, you will also come to pretend to be there, it turns out that you are pretending." β
Su Chunfeng waved his hand: "Don't go and hit my little report, and you also said that I was making a show, and President Bai couldn't really arrange a task for me." β
"Who is the leader of the association?"
"Of course it's you."
"But how do I listen as if you're growing...... Okay. β
"Are you really going to put something to do for me?"
"Come on, with your temperament, what arrangements for you must not be delayed?" After Bai Xingyong joked a few sentences, he said with emotion: "After the last meeting, not to mention our Beijing University Student Warlock Association, the College Student Warlock Association all over the country is like a long vacation. β
Su Chunfeng nodded and said, "Lao Bai, I can feel that in terms of the management and restraint of Qimen Jianghu and college student warlocks, you are more inclined to Li Quanyou's concept than Professor Luo Tonghua, right?" β
"Both." Bai Xingyong said unabashedly: "Personally, I feel that Professor Luo is a bit of a bit of a do-nothing, while Professor Li is too radical and has extreme views. There are some things you don't like to hear, many of Professor Li's practices, regardless of his ideas, have at least made tangible achievements. For example, the national originally scattered college student warlock association, after the integration of the guΓ², easy to manage, but also more practical, relatively speaking, the sense of advance is also relatively strong, this year's national college student warlock freshmen into the school, compared with recent years, very abruptly reduced by more than 80 percent, obviously entered the period of discontinuity, if the college student warlock association is not integrated, then there will be a long time in the future, many university student warlock associations will exist in name only, become a joke. And you also know that the trend of globalization in today's era is becoming more and more obvious, and domestic warlocks, sects, and families cannot be forever confined to their own Qimen rivers and lakes. In this context, organized communication is more advantageous than individual communication in terms of external communication. β
"That's true." Su Chunfeng didn't deny it, and said, "Now you're going to talk about the formation of the Qimen Jianghu Alliance, right?" β
Bai Xingyong nodded and said: "The worldwide exchange of warlocks will inevitably start from the younger generation, and it will start in the name of cultural exchanges, so the integration of the University Warlock Association is a far-sighted decision. Since there is an association of college student warlocks, and it is obviously correct to form such an association, the emergence of the Qimen Jianghu Alliance is naturally an inevitable and necessary product. When it comes to the formation of the Qimen Jianghu Alliance, although I was still a little hesitant to be influenced by traditional consciousness when I first learned the news, after thinking about it carefully, I still have the idea of support, but I am somewhat surprised by Professor Li's radical concept, and I am more inclined to join the Qimen Jianghu Alliance voluntarily and freely, rather than compulsorily and must be registered in all of them. As long as the Qimen Jianghu Alliance can quickly show obvious benefits after it is formed, then the Jianghu Warlocks will naturally join in enthusiastically. Similarly, the formation of the Qimen Jianghu Alliance is also conducive to restraining the behavior of the Jianghu Warlocks, and in the future, when the Qimen Jianghu exchanges with foreign countries, the existence of the alliance will make foreign exchanges have greater advantages, and unity is strength. β
"The rivers and lakes have gone from revival to prosperity in just over ten years, which is too fast, so it takes a longer time for its perfection and the emergence of alliance-like organizations to arise naturally, otherwise there will be a nondescript deformed freak." Su Chunfeng shook his head, raised his hand and flicked the snow on the side branches, and fell one after another, "Li Quanyou is too eager to form this kind of alliance, so it will not succeed, and it will be guarded against by the official." I bet that not to mention the actual situation in all aspects of our country, in fact, no country will allow such a form of non-governmental organization to appear. β
"But the benefits are obvious." Walk in vain.
Su Chunfeng sighed and said, "The benefits are obvious, it's not big, and it's a castle in the air. However, the disadvantage is a hidden danger, and once it erupts, it will cause extremely bad consequences, and even it is difficult to end. β
Bai Xingyong was silent and pondered.
The snowflakes, I don't know when they started, get bigger and bigger. The two of them didn't care at all, letting the snowflakes accumulate on their heads and shoulders.
On the day of Li Quanyou's downfall, Su Chunfeng was arrested red-handed by the authorities. People in Qimen Jianghu all believe that Su Chunfeng must be punished quite severely, otherwise, how can the official explain to the entire Qimen Jianghu? And how to save the face of the official? Although Li Quanyou's conspiracy was exposed in public, the result was that he was going to be taken away by the official after all, but in front of the public, Su Chunfeng used such an obviously bad agitation method to force him to lose control and act impulsively, and he almost died on the spot.
But no one expected that not long after being taken away by the official, Su Chunfeng came out safely, and he didn't even delay him to return to the Yinhai Hotel, drink two glasses of wine and have lunch with the famous people on the Qimen Jianghu who attended the meeting that day.
This has aroused great public opinion on the rivers and lakes.
It's just that this kind of public opinion is short-lived, and to a large extent, it is only a discussion of the events of the day, not an official rebuke.
Because people are accustomed to realizing it later, the official's obvious high-minded behavior towards Su Chunfeng made many people in Qimen Jianghu feel that this was a complete victory for Qimen Jianghu in a conflict between Qimen Jianghu and the official. And the official is in a great passivity - no matter how completely Li Quanyou loses, to put it bluntly, isn't it because he relied on his unique official power position to frame and bully Su Chunfeng, and deceived and used the public opinion of the entire Qimen Jianghu? The people in the rivers and lakes who are in a weak position, after learning the truth, naturally want to stand on Su Chunfeng's position. Then, when Su Chunfeng was arrested and soon came out unharmed, it shows that Su Chunfeng won this incident, and the pressure from the public opinion of Qimen Jianghu on the official played a decisive role.
This also set a precedent for how to finally decide when dealing with some contradictory incidents because of the delicate relationship between the official and Qimen Jianghu.
The precedent has been set, and the past has been carried forward.
At least in a few years, the freedom of Qimen Jianghu is bound to be much higher than it has been in the previous years from revival to prosperity.
Such a status quo......
Whether it's good or bad, it's hard to say.
Bai Xingyong sighed lightly and said, "Chunfeng, I understand the meaning of your words, but without the strong constraints of the official, there are eight or nine times out of ten that the Qimen rivers and lakes will cause frequent chaos in this era of rapid development, and add many unjust incidents to the current society." Frankly speaking, from revival to prosperity, it only took a dozen years for the Qimen rivers and lakes to be prosperous, and if it were not for the strong official pressure hanging over the Qimen rivers and lakes, the rivers and lakes would not have been so calm. In this regard, Professor Li Quanyou, who has a tough attitude towards Qimen Jianghu, has made great contributions. Without the strength of Professor Li Quanyou, coupled with the impact of this incident on the entire Qimen Jianghu and the official relationship, I am worried that the rivers and lakes will be chaotic, and once it affects the real society, it will be even more difficult to clean up. Don't say anything, if the official can continue to draw a red line and warn Qimen Jianghu not to interfere in world affairs, this is unrealistic. Not to mention anything else, any sect, family, and even many casual cultivators are able to easily obtain wealth and social status far beyond ordinary people in contemporary society, and they still rely on their own magic. β
"Hmm......" Su Chunfeng pondered it very seriously before saying, "I admit that I was moved by your words and was a little stubborn about my personal opinions. But in this world, whether it is the circle of warlocks, the Qimen rivers and lakes, or the various ideologies believed in by various countries in the real society, there will never be a perfect existence. I, on the other hand, have never been a perfectionist, nor do I believe in the absolute existence of truth, goodness and beauty, but I will respect everyone who contributes to the goal of truth, goodness and beauty, including Li Quanyou. β
"Then why ......," Bai Xingyong said in surprise.
"Personal vendettas." Su Chunfeng smiled and said: "Therefore, Li Quanyou is also selfish, maybe himself, as well as those who agree with his views, will agree that sacrificing the interests of a small number and a few people for the sake of the overall situation is not a mistake, and he can even sacrifice himself." But I'm not that great, and I will never approve that sacrificing the interests of this few people to achieve the so-called ideal goal is a kind of high-sounding selfishness and cruelty. What I can't accept is that I was hurt with such a reason! Of course, it's okay to be reasonable, you know, I've never been an unreasonable person. β
Bai Xingyong was stunned, nodded with a wry smile, and said, "Actually, Professor Li is ...... Not a bad person. β
"Old white." Su Chunfeng smiled and patted Bai Xingyong's shoulder, but he was not angry because Bai Xingyong repeatedly explained Li Quanyou in front of him, and said: "Good or bad is a very empty definition, you say that he is not a bad person, but I have no grievances with him, and I think that I have not done anything harmful, I have not committed a crime, but he wants to find ways to harm me, so is he a good person or a bad person?" If he recognizes that he is a good person just because his intentions may be good, then I who wants to harm him is not a bad person who prevents a good starting point? What's more, I don't believe that Li Quanyou is just doing these things with all his heart and soul to achieve an idealized goal, and more precisely, he also has great selfishness, that is, the selfish desire to keep his name before and after his death. β
"This ...... That was not what I meant. Bai Xingyong said embarrassedly.
"I see what you mean." Su Chunfeng said: "But I really didn't expect that the lobbyist that Li Quanyou found would be you." β
Bai Xingyong did not deny it, and said very frankly: "He wants to meet you." β
"Where?"
"Western suburbs, Jingshan Hospital."
"Hmm." Su Chunfeng raised his wrist and looked at his watch, and said, "There is still time, I will go to visit him now, tell me the specific address, contact number, and his ward and ward in the hospital, and I will go by myself." β
β¦β¦
It was past four o'clock in the afternoon.
The snow was all over the sky, but the sky was not dark, and the mountains in the distance were already covered with snow, and they were covered in silver, which was extremely beautiful.
In the western suburbs of Beijing, the recuperation area of Jingshan Hospital.
Su Chunfeng, who was carrying a beautiful gift box, inquired all the way and found the room where Li Quanyou was recuperating and living here - in fact, long before Bai Xingyong became a lobbyist, Luo Tonghua had privately mentioned Li Quanyou's situation to Su Chunfeng, and hoped that he would no longer hold a grudge and consider putting Li Quanyou to death.
So Su Chunfeng knew that Li Quanyou was not only a waste of cultivation, but also a half-paralyzed waste.
From the moment he entered Jingshan Hospital, Su Chunfeng could feel that there were several pairs of eyes locked on him secretly, and he also felt the undisguised clarity of murder in those eyes - as long as he dared to show any dangerous behavior, he would be killed absolutely. This made Su Chunfeng, who had always been cautious and suspicious, have to maliciously think that maybe the official took Li Quanyou, who had been abolished and useless, but would waste financial expenditures in vain, as a bait, hoping that Su Chunfeng, the thorn in his side, would kill Li Quanyou here, so as to kill Su Chunfeng as a matter of course.
Of course, Su Chunfeng, who has always taken "be careful to sail the ship for ten thousand years" as his motto, called Luo Tonghua before he came, reported his behavior of visiting Li Quanyou, and got Luo Tonghua's consent.
Even so, when he entered the recuperation area, he was still subjected to strict identity checks.
The convalescent area of Jingshan Hospital is a relatively independent, garden-like courtyard with a garden-like landscape environment, which is basically a patchwork of bungalow buildings, surrounded by long corridors, green trees, pavilions, small pavilions, rockeries and rocks, small lakes, and green evergreen vegetation in all seasons...... It is no wonder that, according to Luo Tonghua, although Li Quanyou made a great mistake, considering the contributions he has made over the years and his personal family conditions, after his dismissal from public office, he was still given a higher administrative leave of absence.
From this, Su Chunfeng learned that Li Quanyou was alone.
A pair of children followed his ex-wife.
Standing in front of the door under the porch, Su Chunfeng knocked lightly on the door twice.
There was no answer inside, Li Quanyou, who was in a wheelchair, opened the door himself, he was wearing light-colored home clothes, with a faint and gentle smile on his pale and weak cheeks, looking at Su Chunfeng, who was standing at the door with a slightly surprised expressionβhe had already learned that Su Chunfeng was coming to visit him.
"Hello, Professor Li." Su Chunfeng bowed slightly, looking very polite.
"Thank you, I'm glad you came to see me." Li Quanyou turned his wheelchair and stepped back a meter, let go of the door, waved his hand, and said to the black-clothed bodyguards who appeared quietly at the door like a ghost on both sides of Su Chunfeng: "Don't worry, he has no malicious intent." β
The two bodyguards, with grim expressions, turned around and left without the slightest expression.
Their appearance is more of a deterrent and warning to Su Chunfeng. Of course, even if Li Quanyou says so, they will not go far.
Su Chunfeng entered the clean and tidy room, put the gifts on the desk, looked at the indoor environment, and said: "The conditions here are good, Professor Li, you can finally come down easily, you don't have to think about anything to rest in peace, usually read books, read newspapers, or chat with the old cadres who are recuperating here, play cards, it's good." In the future, don't worry about things on the Qimen rivers and lakes. β
"I was humiliated and ridiculed in public that day, and I was seriously injured, and I haven't been able to vent my hatred for me?" Li Quanyou closed the door, turned his wheelchair to face Su Chunfeng, and said with a smile: "I can hear that there is a warning in your words." β
