Chapter 23: Obsession (1st Update)
Du Ji had been brewing, and finally said to Pan Long: "Dingtian, do you know the story of Yi Zi's food?" ”
Such a famous story, anyone who learns a little history should know, Pan Long naturally knows it, so he said: "I naturally know that during the Spring and Autumn Period, the Song State was besieged by the Chu State, which lasted for half a year, and the food in the city was eaten up, and many people starved to death. ”
Du Ji poured a glass of wine and raised it, meaning to drink with Pan Long, Pan Long knew that if he didn't eat and drink, he would get drunk easily, but he couldn't refuse, so he could only sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman.
After a drink, Du Jicai said slowly: "About half a year ago, my mother contracted a strange disease, and all the doctors were helpless. ”
Pan Long couldn't help but say, "What about Hua Tuo, he has also treated Ling Tang?" ”
Du Ji nodded, as if he deliberately avoided this topic, and continued: "Just when my mother was dying, it was raining heavily, and a Taoist priest happened to come to my house to take shelter from the rain, and when he saw that I was heartbroken, he checked my mother's pulse, so he prescribed me a home remedy, saying that according to this, my mother could live for ten more years, so I believed it, and it really worked." ”
"Do you think you're doing the right thing?"
"I also know that this is wrong, but I don't want to lose my mother, I have always loved the people like a son, and I ask myself to be worthy of the people." Du Jidao.
Pan Long let out a long sigh and said, "Your mother is alive, but those spirits of the dead will never rest in peace." ”
Du Ji was silent.
Pan Long continued: "You are basing your filial piety on corrupt morality, do you know how much pain you will add to the family of the deceased? ”
Although Du Ji knew that he was at a loss, he was still a dead duck with a hard mouth, and said: "I don't think this will add any pain to them, anyway, everyone is dead, and sooner or later they will turn to ashes!" ”
Pan Long slapped the table at this time and shouted, "Du Taishou! At this point, you're still obsessed! If Ling Tang knew what kind of bullshit dragon meat you gave her, would she forgive you?! ”
A few people outside watched Pan Long slap the table, and rushed in with the guy, and the railway shouted: "Master, this kid dares to be disrespectful to you!" I stomped him! ”
Du Ji saw that these people were going to fight again, and if the fight started, a table of good dishes on the table would be ruined, so he also slapped the table and said, "Presumptuous!" You are not allowed to come in without my orders! ”
A few people retreated again.
After Pan Long saw a few people leaving, he was silent for a while, and then continued: "I have also seen Ling Tang, to put it mildly, she is a living dead, she doesn't even know who you are, she knows what dragon meat to eat, do you think Ling Tang will be happy like this?" You ask yourself, are you really happy? ”
Du Ji lowered his head, still silent, as if he wanted to listen to Pan Long say this again, for many years, no one has refuted his opinion, everything is up to him, now that he has a different opinion, he wants to hear it very much, and he is addicted to it when he listens to it.
Pan Long continued: "Du Taishou, listen to the next sentence, don't steal any more dragon meat, accumulate some yin virtue for your mother, and also accumulate some yang longevity for yourself, birth, old age, sickness and death are the way of heaven, and the replacement of all things is a natural law, don't go against it, isn't it good to go with the flow?" Let go of Lingtang, let go of yourself, and let go of the souls of those who died, don't deceive yourself anymore, filial piety is not so filial. ”
After Pan Long said these words, even he himself was stunned, he suddenly found that his eloquence was so good, he didn't care at all before.
At this time, Du Ji had been completely awakened by Pan Long's words, he had been stuck in the fog and couldn't get out, and now he finally cleared the clouds and saw the blue sky, although he understood in his heart, he still didn't say it, and when he saw the chicken leg on the table, he grabbed it directly with his hand and ate it, drinking while eating, and forgot that there was a Pan Long next to him.
Pan Long thought to himself: Taishou definitely didn't eat breakfast, and grabbed it directly with his hands, you, Taishou, should at least pay attention to your image in front of outsiders, right?
Pan Long saw that Taishou was gobbling up, so he simply grabbed it with his hands, of course, the first thing he grabbed was a chicken leg.
After being full of wine and food, Du Ji suddenly became enlightened, laughed, and said to Pan Long: "Dingtian, what you said is very right, my mother is better to live than to die, it is really better to go with the flow, who has not died since ancient times?" ”
After Du Ji finished speaking, he ordered Qian Huai to bury all the remaining dragon meat, so that the railway group knew that their jobs were gone, and they were disturbed by Pan Long, so they hated Pan Long one by one.
Sun Fang thought in his heart: Pan Long is not a simple person, it was only after a while, and he made Taishou clear, this is a rare genius in the world, if I can be with this person, I will be prosperous and rich.
The railroad group immediately held a secret meeting.
"Pan Long, this kid, has changed his mind about what Taishou said, which means that the financial path of our brothers is broken, and the person who cuts off our financial road is the big man Pan, so he will die in the sky, do it tonight!"
The railway played the role of his leading brother very domineeringly, but Sun Fang retorted: "Boss, the times create heroes, with the ability of a few of us, the financial road is too simple, when there is chaos today, all parties are also the time to employ people, are you afraid that there is no financial way?" ”
Tiedao said to Sun Fang: "What do you want?" ”
Sun Fang said: "Wait and see." ”
Three days later, Zou Shi, who had no dragon meat to eat, immediately stopped thinking about tea and dinner, and finally swallowed his last breath at midnight.
Du Ji didn't seem to be sad, he felt a sense of relief, he didn't even shed a tear, and many people talked about Du Ji's unfilial piety, only Pan Long and a few people knew his filial piety.
Zou was buried in the back mountain where she has been living, and the house was converted into a tomb, quite magnificent, quite a feeling of imperial tomb, there were rules in ancient times, only after the death of the royal family can build a tomb, the candidates can only build a tomb, the people can only build a tomb, of course, the scale is also from large to small.
Although a few of them on the railway said that they lost their golden jobs, they still have iron rice bowls, and it is okay to work a dozen temporary workers in Du Mansion, and a few of them are the same as Pan Long, eating and drinking for nothing, sleeping until they wake up naturally every day, the reason why Du Ji does not give them positions is very simple, because Du Ji feels that they are all tigers, and the tigers should not be circled, they should be put on the battlefield to fight, these people are by no means things in the pool, they have a big use, and now is the time to use people, Du Ji intends to recommend them to the imperial court.
However, a month has passed, but the court has not replied to the letter, let alone sent someone to pick up a few of them.
Since Du Zi came back, Pan Long ran to Du Zi's house twice in three days, the two often talked and laughed, and Du Ji also had the intention of marrying his daughter, he was an old man who looked at his son-in-law, and the more he looked at it, the more pleasing it was.
