Chapter 263 - The Life of Tea, the Life of Man

After saying a few words, he poured out all the water in the teapot, added new water, and continued to boil on the stove.

In the process of making tea from the new, Ye Xiao on the side slowly spoke: "I heard a story, there was once a young swordsman, he was invincible in the world when he first entered the rivers and lakes, as if heaven and earth only favored him, in just a few years he left a legend, 'A sword is a martial arts in the world, Changsheng is eight hundred clothes to go, the sword is a god, martial arts are respected, only the vicissitudes of life'!"

Lianhu didn't respond to Ye Xiao, because the tea leaves on the stove were boiling again, Lianhu slowly brewed two cups of tea, and then took a sip and said, "The second taste, bitter." When people reach middle age, they are smoothed out by the world, and finally understand that for this world, he is only a dispensable existence, so he begins to give up his dreams and accept his own life, a life that belongs to the world..... Those things that were smoothed out were all eaten in their hearts, except for bitterness and bitterness. ”

After saying that, Lianhu poured out all the tea in the teapot again, and continued to add new water to start making tea........

And Ye Xiao looked at the firewood that was lit, and said again: "I heard another story later, there is a middle-aged swordsman, he has everything that ordinary people in the world envy, brothers who live and die together, friends who love each other, and a wife who pours out his life." In addition to everything that ordinary people envy, he has a lot of supreme rights, inexhaustible wealth, and most importantly, he has a sword, the number one sword in the world!"

After hearing this story, Lianhu still didn't reply, because the story of this middle-aged swordsman was only half told.

So Ye Xiao didn't stop, Ye Xiao continued: "But everyone in the world wants to challenge him, they all want to kill him, what better way to become famous than killing the number one in the world? But because this middle-aged swordsman has a sword that is the best in the world, no matter who challenges it with high spirits, he will appear dejected the next day." ”

Speaking of this, Ye Xiao sighed and shook his head: "Alas, it's a pity, it's a pity that he has a lot more than a sword......... There are many things that are more precious than swords. For example, friends, brothers, wives, children, these things are more precious than a sword. A man who had so many precious things, but he held a sword that was the best in the world, so in the end he only had the sword left, and his wife, children, friends and brothers, all died for his sword. ”

"It turns out that it is so simple to defeat the first sword in the world, in fact, you don't need to defeat his sword, you only need to seize his most precious things, let his friends and brothers betray him, and threaten him with his wife and children!" As Ye Xiao finished the last sentence, the tea leaves on the stove boiled again.

Like the previous two times, he still made two cups of tea, then took a sip of his own and continued: "The third taste, light. When people are old, whether they once dreamed or chose the life they chose later, everything turned out to be just a story, and it was just a story that only had their own taste, there was no so-called happiness or unhappiness, and the attachment and confusion were all let go at this moment, because you came to this world from nothing, and in the end you still became a pile of loess and left this world with nothing......."

It's like singing, you sing, I'll appear...... As Lianhu finished speaking, Ye Xiao spoke again: "It's still the previous story, that middle-aged swordsman lost everything, but there is one thing that others can never take away, and that is the sword in his hand, the number one sword in the world." ”

After speaking, Ye Xiao closed his eyes and savored it, and then continued to speak: "So I listened to the third story, there was an old swordsman, there was only a sword left in his hand, a broken sword, the sword lost its brilliance, and the sword made a mournful sound, and the sorrowful sound seemed to be comforting his master. The old swordsman hadn't killed anyone for a long time, and he drank a bowl of very strong wine and said, Jianghu, I'm back. ”

When he said "I'm back", Ye Xiao looked up at Lianhu, and looked at it for a while before saying, "I think, this is the last time this old swordsman will drink." Later, there was one more vengeful person on the rivers and lakes, and it was the old swordsman............ The old swordsman didn't know how long he had been killed, and he didn't know whether the dead were his enemies or his benefactors, perhaps innocent. The only thing I know is that there were only bones left in the earth that year, blood flowed in the water that year, and the only sound heard that year was crying, and only crying. ”

In the end, Ye Xiao let out a long sigh and said gloomily: "Alas...... Later, the crying stopped, and the old swordsman stopped, because the old swordsman discovered one thing, that is, there was no enemy in this world, and there was no one he knew. The old swordsman was suddenly tired, he slept for a long time, and everyone for a long time couldn't remember that such a person existed. ”

The life of tea is also the life of people, and it is also the life of the tiger, the laughter of the youth corresponds to the sweetness of the tea, the bitterness of the middle age corresponds to the bitterness of the tea, and the indifference of the old corresponds to the lightness of the tea.

Lianhu didn't feel sad because of the story Ye Xiao told, it seemed that he really looked down on these things. Lianhu just gently pushed the three cups of tea that he hadn't drunk to Ye Xiao's side, and then spoke.

"If the tea tastes sweet, you and I will compete with each other, and we will order it until the end. ”

"If the tea tastes bitter and astringent, you and I will argue the way of the sword, and life and death will follow the sky. ”

Halfway through speaking, Lianhu suddenly stopped. Seeing this, Ye Xiao asked, "What if the tea is tasteless?"

When the words fell, I heard a long sound of the sword, and I saw the jade sword engraved with "Thinking of the World" in the center of the pond swishing into the hands of the tiger, and then the tiger said with a smile: "If the tea is tasteless, the sword palm of life and death, the living is alone!"

Seeing that after the tiger finished speaking, Ye Xiao looked at the three cups of tea in front of him and suddenly laughed: "Hahaha! Then let's see if my Ye Xiao's luck is good or not." After the words fell, Ye Xiao lifted a cup of tea and slowly drank it into his mouth.

In the eyes of Pian Hu and Ye Xiao, the tea in front of them was gone, the pond was gone, and the only thing left was two swordsmen standing in the red maple in the sky.

At the moment when the falling red maple was covered, the two swordsmen moved at the same time! I saw the two swordsmen draw their swords, and their swords were exactly the same, with their same appearance, just like they were competing with themselves.

As the two swordsmen moved, the fiery red robes on the two of them were like red maples, blown up by the autumn wind!

Although the two swordsmen were wielding long swords, the two had not been in direct contact, and it seemed that they were performing their own moves for each other to see......... As one move after another, the two swordsmen finally raised their swords and swung towards each other.

I saw that the moment the swords intersected, the two swordsmen actually shuttled between each other's bodies!

In an instant, everything was back to the way it was. By the pond, Ye Xiao lightly spit out two words: "Tie....", and then drank the tea in his mouth.

On the other side of all this, the poor tiger only asked lightly: "What is the taste?"

After listening to the question of the poor tiger, I saw Ye Xiao gently close his eyes, as if he was reminiscing about the taste of the tea, and also seemed to be reminiscing about the battle just now........ After a long time, Ye Xiao laughed three times: "Hahaha!

"Hahaha!" At this time, the same laughter also came out of the mouth of the poor tiger!

The laughter stopped, and Ye Xiao and Lianhu said at the same time: "Life and death sword palm, one living person!"
