Chapter 382: Happiness
Can't sit still! There was a path ahead, and I staggered forward, and the footsteps behind me stopped, and I started shooting arrows again.
I gritted my teeth and endured the pain, and burrowed into the dense forest, with arrows and feathers behind me. I was running, an arrow hit my ankle, I couldn't stay, my feet slipped, and I tumbled down the mountain.
The whole process was chaotic, and I felt that I was constantly sliding and rolling, my body was numb, and the pain was past the peak of the extreme.
Later, when I stopped, the night was dark, and the surroundings were quiet, and I could only hear the constant cries of crickets.
Anyway, I finally escaped Huang Teng's attack, and I was about to catch my breath, when I suddenly saw the rich second-generation Xiao Xianrou Kong Ling, with a group of little ruffians talking and laughing from the path.
I secretly called out bad luck, dragging my stump and trying to hide in the grass on the side of the road, but this movement happened to be seen by Kong Ling, and a large group of people surrounded me. Kong Ling frowned and looked at me, and said Lin Cong, why are you like a dog?
He said to the other fellows, "You have all seen it, this boy used to be an old cow, and he was always against me."
He squatted down and patted my face, and said Lin Cong, don't think I don't know, you and Li Damin stripped me naked and tied me to a stool, and poured cold water on me on a cold day, let's settle this account slowly.
He stood up and took out a tissue to wipe his hands as if he was dirty, and then waved his hand, and the little ruffians swarmed up, punching and kicking me.
I was in so much pain that I hugged my head tightly, and my whole body was like it wasn't me, and my head was bleeding from the beating. These people are all wearing big scalp shoes, and they are specially kicked with their heels, poked with the toes of their shoes, and greeted them softly.
I was bleeding from my nose and mouth, and I screamed and screamed.
Kong Lingdao, I thought you were a tough guy, but that's it. He told the others to strip the boy naked and throw him into the lake.
These men took all my clothes off my body, some raised their heads, some raised their feet, and led me to a black river by the roadside, and these people shouted and threw me in, and before I could call out, they threw me into the cold water. The big river rushed and left me.
I washed seven meat and eight vegetables in the water, and the whole person is almost half dead if not to say. There was still a trace of clarity in my mind, and I suddenly realized that what appeared in this dream was my enemy.
It dawned on me that this was also a test. Hurt by the enemy...... Could it be that this test is to keep me from hateful?
No, it's not like that. It is impossible for anyone, including the Buddha, to be beaten for no reason, and it is not appropriate to take it seriously. That's not the real attitude. What attitude should I have towards the hatred that is being inflicted on me?
Just thinking that the water had reached the cliff, before I could react, I was swept off the cliff by the water, fell from a high altitude, and then smashed firmly on a pile of underwater rocks, and before I could figure out what was going on, I died.
I flickered and flickered, floating in the form of a soul in a dark place, a terrifying and eerie place, and occasionally I could see green ghostly fire jumping and jumping.
I walked forward in a daze, and not long after, I came to a house. Before I could get there, there was a bronze mirror hanging on the door of the house, and my image was reflected in the mirror, and then the door opened, and someone walked out.
It was a woman, with a rope around her neck, dressed in a big red robe, with a face as white as paper and lips as red as paper, staring at me.
Isn't this Zheng Qian?
She waved violently, and I flew in the air and slid down to her. She squinted and smiled, and said, "You're in my hands."
She led me into the courtyard, which had a cross-like wooden stick stake in the middle. I was tied to the stake, Zheng Qian patted my cheek, smiled and said Have fun with you.
In the drowsiness, the pillar suddenly caught fire, a fire emitted black smoke, the flames quickly swam on my body, every inch of skin was burning, every cell was burning, I screamed in pain, this feeling of burning my body was even worse than piercing my eyes.
The pain reaches a tipping point, and it comes back and climbs again to the tipping point.
Zheng Qian stood outside the fire and pursed her lips and smiled, with the cheap look on her face.
My heart was filled with black hatred, burning all over my body, my teeth rattling, and I wanted to break free and press her to the ground and beat her violently.
This female spirit is so cheap that it can't be overstated, I'm going to kill her, I'm going to kill her...... The thought lingered in my head.
The more I hate, the bigger the fire. The bigger the fire, the more hatred. It's an endless loop.
At this moment, I suddenly realized, no, no, this flame is very much like I lit myself, turned over and burned myself.
Now the key is how I get rid of my hatred. Only by calming down the hatred can we break through!
Bitterness...... Bitterness...... I raised my head and looked at Zheng Qian, and said slowly, "I'm about to be tortured to death by you, can I ask you a question?" ”
"Say it." She said.
"How did you die?"
As soon as this question came out, Zheng Qian was immediately shocked, her eyes gradually became cold, staring at me tightly, I could feel that she was angry, she didn't let go of her obsession before her death, and her anger burned.
She screamed, raised her hand and waved it at me, and the fire intensified, burning black smoke all over my body.
I laughed, and found that this female spirit was quite pitiful, she could not calm herself, and could only rely on this trick similar to that of a kindergarten child smashing things, to vent her emotions. This kind of low-level behavior can only show her pity and cowardice.
With this thought in my mind, the fire gradually subsided, and it began to grow.
There is a door.
I said to Zheng Qian: "Your anger can't burn me, my anger can't burn myself, what I want to do most now is to calm your anger, your obsession is too deep, can you talk to me?" ”
"Say Nima." She waved her hand desperately, and the flames came and went out, and I seemed to be cut off from the fire, and I couldn't get up.
Zheng Qian was dumbfounded, and the next moment she cried out with a "wow", aggrieved, angry, unwilling, all kinds of emotions were in this cry.
I had a blast and finally woke up.
I woke up from my dream and slowly opened my eyes, and there was still endless darkness in front of me. I breathed a sigh of relief, and in the face of hatred, I found my way. The anger burns like the water of the heart, leaving no trace, and it is burned and passed.
I passed the third level.
I slowly closed my eyes, my body was indescribably useful, comfortable, very comfortable, I felt a stream of energy from the bottom of my heart, rippling in my body like ripples, layers of ripples expanding, and the whole person was fluttering.
At this time, Wang Yue's voice suddenly came, "Lin Cong, why didn't you come to me?" I'm still trapped in the bardo realm. ”
"Don't worry." I said lightly, "I haven't forgotten you." ”
"You are really different from before," Wang Yue said, "Can I rely on you?" ”
Before I could react, I felt a warm and soft body come over, close to me, and Wang Yue's voice murmured: "Lin Cong, do you know, I miss you so much." ”
I reached out and touched her hair, and my heart felt a warm happiness. Wang Yue said softly: "In my absence, did you have a girlfriend?" ”
I didn't want to hide it from her: "It's not a girlfriend, but I've had some intersections with a few girls because of chance." ”
"It's okay, I don't blame you." Wang Yue said: "You should go and have a girlfriend." I'll just have you by my side. ”
I sighed softly, and suddenly smelled a fragrance, and then another voice came: "Lin Cong, it's time to eat, I'll cook for you myself." ”
The voice turned out to be Zhao Yaqi.
"Yaqi......" I muttered.
A warm and delicate little hand stuffed a pair of chopsticks in my hand, "You can taste it." I rarely cook. ”
I caught a pair of chopsticks, which should be shrimp eggs, put them in my mouth, soft and silky, not to mention the deliciousness.
I chewed, and Zhao Yaqi asked softly if it was delicious. Somehow, tears flowed down my eyes: "It's delicious. ”
A pair of small hands rubbed my eyelids, and Zhao Yaqi said happily and distressedly: "Look at it, what are you crying about, old man." ”
"I just feel like I'm so happy at this moment. Happiness is a little unreal. "I choked up.
"You see, this is where you can't think of it," Zhao Yaqi said, "Why do many people take misfortune for granted, and happiness and joy as false?" ”
"Because happiness is too short-lived, it's fleeting." I say.
Zhao Yaqi said: "As long as you are aware of happiness, you will always be in happiness." ”
I was stunned suddenly, thinking, and another voice came out: "Lin Cong, have you forgotten me?" ”
The voice was very familiar, I thought for a while, and suddenly called out: "Zhou Fei, you are Zhou Fei!" ”
"Why didn't you come to me?" Zhou Fei was a little angry and a little coquettish.
"I," I sighed, "I'm sorry, I've had so many things going on during that time, and I really don't want to trouble you." ”
"Whether or not it will cause trouble is my business, I will judge for myself, not what you impose on me." Zhou Fei said.
I had nothing to say, and I sat there with a lot of emotion. These three girls, all of them are well-tempered, kind and beautiful, and they can still see the problem at once, I really can't catch up.
Zhou Fei came to my side and took his hand: "Lin Cong, let me ask you a question, do you like me?" ”
"I like it." I said frankly: "Although we haven't met many times, I like you a lot." ”
"That'll do." Zhou Fei's tone was sweet and sweet.
I could feel the three girls snuggling up to me, and I felt like I was surrounded by a sea of happiness, obsessed with it, and I didn't want to extricate myself.
