Chapter 144: By the Lake
"Well said! For example, no matter ancient or modern, what does it mean that people in the world have pursued all their lives? There seems to be a saying: 'People die for money, birds die for food', chasing 'fame' and chasing 'profit', which can be described as a constant 'thinking heart', no matter how many 'flesh hearts' through the ages, thinking day and night, tirelessly. β
Xiang Zhong felt that it was appropriate to give this example, and Li Dan also nodded first, and then asked later: "As Xiang Gongzi said, 'constant thinking' is a fixed number?" However, you and I both have a heavenly question, so how can this 'thinking' be an unknown number of impermanence? β
"This can also be called qualitative: 'curiosity', 'curiosity', the action is the norm, but the action points to the category of 'unknown' endlessly."
Xiang Zhong still found the best explanation for this kind of "thinking": "curiosity".
Just between Xiang Zhong and Li Dan's "calcium carbide firelight" rubbing back and forth, the "little tails" were completely confused by these questions and answers such as "change, change", and they all held their breath and did not dare to interject a word.
Unconsciously, the morning light has become fuller, the sun is pouring in more, and the coldness in the "Reading Heart Zhai" is driven aside, and the children here are also chatting more and more in this "brainstorming", and it is lively.
"It seems that such a good sunshine, we are all young, but nested in a few studyes, no matter how much our minds swell, there is no good will of heaven and earth, and we are stuck in the weak age, isn't it a pity! I suggest that it is better for us to go to the lake to continue the discussion, the fruit side is open and comfortable, and it is easier to play, how about it? β
Talking about the excitement, the "little tail" who couldn't sit still pondered to change the scene to play, sitting here for too long, her legs were numb, she found that following the light and shadow of the sun, she must not be wrong, so she secretly went to Ji Yu's brother to whisper and pout, let her brother make suggestions. Ji Yu, who had just run around the lake in the morning, naturally proposed to go there.
"It's okay too! It's better to listen to Brother Yu, everyone goes to the lake together, although the old house is cold, fortunately near a lake, the scenery is natural, and you can still see it. β
Li Dan took the lead in getting up, took a group of children, and came all the way to the lake, discussing the topic just now as he walked.
"If we are 'empathetic and easy to see', we are in a state of mind of inquiry, as if we have encountered the fog of the sea of thought, and it is difficult to see it; Dare to ask Xiang Gongzi, the lake is wide and wide, compared with the opening of the mind, which wins? β
Faced with the question thrown by Li Dan, Xiang Zhong felt that if he answered according to the idea of "the sky is bigger than the sea, and the human heart is bigger than the sky", it would be too contemptuous of the wisdom of the questioner, so he paused for a moment, thought for a while, raised his face, and replied with a smile: "The lake is wide and tangible; The mind is far away, invisible and acceptable; The intangible is more tangible, and the victory is unintentional, just like the fragrance of osmanthus and the fragrance of vegetable oil. β
"Wonderful!" Li Dan felt that this question was asked by question and answer, which was quite accurate.
As he spoke, a group of six people had already walked to the lake.
Compared with the night, the beauty of the lake scenery is fully displayed at this time: the breeze is slight, sparkling, the water surface is clear enough to see the black-backed big fat grass carp swimming in the water, as if the nest is out of the hole, large and small, fat and thin, like the six children at the water's edge, different heights and ages, but it is a very harmonious team.
Facing this lake that almost cost him a small life in this life, Xiang Zhong did not have the slightest timidity, as if it was someone else's child who was flooded last night.
Seeing so many fish, "Little Tail" was the most excited, but unfortunately she didn't bring any food out, and she didn't have anything to make fish food, so she ran to Xiang Zhong and asked him for pecans.
"I'm done eating!" Xiang Zhong reached into his arms, took out a few times out of thin air, and stretched out his hands again, with a sincere look of no dedication.
"What's more, the fish top will like to eat pecans? You should dig up a few earth dragons, it's better than asking me! β
Although Xiang Zhong thinks that "Little Tail" is so uncommon-sense, he is embarrassed to laugh at her in front of everyone, and it is better to give her a reasonable suggestion.
"But the department, I know that Bindu can dig out the earth dragon ga? Brother Yu, you can help me! β
"Little Tail" feels that his brother is omnipotent, and it is very suitable for him to do such a trivial matter of catching earthworms.
"No problem! You're coming with me! β
Thank God! The difficult "little tail" was finally led away by this "little boring and broken thing", and now no one bothers Xiang Zhong and Li Dan to discuss the "big business"!
"Last night, Xiang Gongzi was in danger and almost died, dare to ask the lake to treat you like this, but you still praise the endless ripples of the lake, so bold, dare to ask where your courage comes from?"
In the end, he still couldn't hold back, Li Dan still felt that as the owner, he should pay a return visit to the risk of last night, and the party who was reborn after the catastrophe should have a deep understanding of this matter.
"Tell the truth! The lake is free in its place, without hands or feet; If it is said that nothing is wrong, and it provokes such twists and turns, the cause of correction naturally lies in me! Blame me for wandering around at night, and it is also an accident to stumble, and βββbesides, some people, some things, really need to be between 'accidents', to get a good opportunity to convert, there is a true meaning in this, I want to say to Brother Dan, and I am afraid that Brother Dan thinks that I am crazy, talking nonsense, it is too incredible, and allow me to keep this secret for the time being, another day to find a better time, I will explain a thing or two for Brother Dan in detail. Today, how about we talk about the major events of 'the past and the present in the world'? β
Xiang Zhong felt that at this time, it was really a little unclear to explain his identity as "Xinwu" in another life, so he should just hold back this topic first!
"It's rare to be open-minded to my brother! If the lake and fish have knowledge, you should be grateful to Brother Xiang. Li Dan couldn't help but admire again.
"Everything in the world has a cause, the existence of the lake, the existence of the fish, we will be here today, enjoy a round of the sun and the moon, pour the same kind of confusion, are our luck! Why fear the difference between life and death? In the past, there are clouds, 'vicissitudes of life', under time, we are all in the change, but the difference between speed and slowness: after a thousand years, the lake may be destroyed, and its stone is still there; β
Xiang Zhong actually really wanted to think that he was a "descendant of the world" from a thousand years later, but he really didn't want to be regarded as a madman with "water in his head", so he had to talk about it half-concealed and half-plain.
"Easy to do! As Brother Xiang said, tangible stones still exist after a thousand years; If we want to continue our invisible thoughts for thousands of years to come, why don't we ask a stonemason to carve our thoughts and thoughts on the stone, so that through the physical body of the tangible stone for thousands of years, our invisible goodness can be passed down through the generations? That is to say, then we have an end to life, and there is no end to thinking, so why don't we die with a smile? β
Li Dan rolled up his sleeves, grabbed the whole pocket, and his fingers clenched hard, and his whole body applauded his idea in capital letters.
