Chapter Seventy-One: How difficult it is to enter the world with self-pity, and plant this flower before the court
The evening breeze blew, and it was much colder on the rooftop. The wind ruffled my hair, causing an itch on the tip of my nose, and I realized that my hair was so long.
Jiang Xue stood a few meters in front of me, we used to be the closest people, but now I didn't dare to step forward. It's not that I'm afraid of Jiang Xue, but I'm afraid of my own heart.
She sighed softly, then waved her hand, and the people immediately retreated. After being loosened, Dongfang Xue hurriedly came to my side, and I comforted her: "You go downstairs and wait for me." ”
She gave me a worried look. But he obediently went down. And Jiang Xue waved her hand, and the others followed. On the huge rooftop, only the two of us remained. She was still sitting on the wooden chair, looking at me like a superior person, and it was a very uncomfortable feeling.
"Here you go."
Jiang Xue suddenly said softly, and then summoned an envelope and threw it to me. I took the envelope and opened it curiously, only to see that there was a picture of a cute baby inside, and it was my child Jiang Niancheng.
"He's cute...... Jiang Xue said softly, "It's just that he has to be cultivated as a strong person since he was a child." Jiang Cheng, you really didn't disappoint. Originally, I thought it would take you at least five years to climb to the point where Heaven would look the other way, but who knew that it had only been such a short time for Heaven to feel threatened from you. Even when the top leaders are in a meeting. Someone made a proposal not to kill Jiang Cheng and sleep unsteadily, and it is already remarkable that your name can appear in such a meeting. ”
I calmly said, "And then? ”
She shook her head and sighed: "There is nothing in the world, no matter how much you say, in fact, everyone knows it very well in their hearts. Actually, you might think I feel guilty, but I don't, not at all. I often tell myself that if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have come to this point, and if it weren't for me, you would still be just a little Taoist priest, and you might not have improved much. Of all the reincarnations, your progress is definitely among the best, but this world is still very big, and I hope you can have a normal mind. ”
Hearing this, I couldn't help but say: "I don't want to live like this, in fact, I already wanted to make some money and go back to live a stable life." ”
"You think so, but the world won't let you do that. Living is involuntarily self-conscious, and when you are trampled by fate, the only thing you can do is to get up from the mud. If you get up, you're still a man, and if you can't get up, you can only be called a rotten person. Jiang Cheng, do you want to be a man or a bad person? Jiang Xue asked.
I was speechless for a moment, but she smiled softly and stood up suddenly. Walk slowly towards me. When she walked up to me, the familiar scent entered my nostrils and made me unconsciously look into her eyes. The beautiful eyes have lost a lot of tenderness, but they have added calm.
Zen, I suddenly thought of this word.
I don't know why, Guan looked at Jiang Xue like this, and many truths that I didn't understand suddenly became clear in my heart.
I closed my eyes and quietly felt the profundity of the Buddha's teachings, and at this time, I felt a hand gently caressing my face, but I was reluctant to open my eyes.
"At this time, can you still comprehend...... Jiang Xue's voice gently came into my ears, "I originally hoped that you could become such a strong person, but when I really saw this scene, I couldn't help but feel sad in my heart." Jiang Cheng, I'm leaving, if you're still thinking about me, don't say too much, put a lily in the bedroom. The memories of our lives are all in that poorest time, I don't expect luxury and prestige in your heart, as long as it is as ordinary as a wildflower and has a place, it is enough. ”
When I finally opened my eyes, Jiang Xue was gone, but those Buddhist teachings were still lingering in my mind, as well as Jiang Xue's words.
Lily......
I sighed, returned to the elevator and arrived at the door of the hotel, but saw Dongfang Xue waiting for me at the door with two suitcases, and after I got ∵ close, I was curious: "What is here?" ”
"Five million cash...... Dongfang Xue said excitedly, "Jiang Cheng, you were really cool before, and you made five million directly." Unfortunately, my mission failed. ”
I said helplessly: "Don't think about it so much, this kind of thing is still not suitable for you to ∵, go back quickly, so as not to have any accidents." ”
Dongfang Xue hurriedly hummed, and I took a taxi to take her back to the house. When I returned to my accommodation, I saw that Luo Qiaoqiao was also there. She beckoned to me and whispered, "Jiang Cheng, come over for a moment." ”
"Spare me......," I said helplessly, "I'm already busy, is there anything else to do?" ”
Luo Qiaoqiao sneered: "Of course you have to do it." How can it be so easy for you to deal with heaven. On the one hand, we want to fight, on the other hand, we want diplomacy, on the other hand, we want to develop our power, and on the other hand, we want to make money. You're just sitting in this position right now. I think it's hard to do things every day, but I get used to it later. ”
I sighed, walked over to Luo Qiaoqiao and sat down, and asked listlessly, "Anyway, what happened this time?" ”
"Fighting. And it's going to be a big fight, so that Heaven will be severely frustrated......" Luo Qiaoqiao said in a deep voice, "Although it is currently a cold war, and only some small battles will break out, in fact, only our side will take advantage of it." Most of the rest of the world suffered. If this continues, no matter how hard we try, we will not be able to affect the overall situation, so some allies have decided to do it ruthlessly. According to our clues, Heaven will have a very important cargo transportation this time, and it is estimated that there will be at least a hundred Taoist priests in charge. And there are quite a few masters among them, at least at my level. It's not easy to get this batch of supplies. ”
I frowned and said, "What is it?" ”
Luo Qiaoqiao said seriously: "Gold bars, a cart full of gold bars, because the origin of this gold bar is not clean." It can't be exchanged in this piece for the time being, as if it will provoke a big person. Heaven intended to use it as a salary payment and money for the purchase of supplies, mainly in the direction of Fujian. The boss of their delivery of supplies this time seems to be a high-ranking figure in Heaven, and if they can take him down, it will deal a major blow to Heaven. If the information is correct, then the high-level figure is likely to be Xuanzun! ”
"Xuanzun!?"
I couldn't help but widen my eyes and exclaimed, "You're kidding, such a powerful character. It's not something we can provoke. If it's okay to fight with Daojun and the like, but fight with Xuanzun, isn't it looking for death? ”
"I made it very clear, this time it was the conditions proposed by the allies...... Luo Qiaoqiao explained, "Tomorrow the allies will come to discuss the battle plan and profit sharing, and then you will be responsible for the reception, the other party is a big man and an old acquaintance of yours." ”
I wondered, "Who?" ”
She smiled mysteriously and said softly, "Jiang Jia Jiang Erqian." ”
"Young family master!?"
My eyes widened in surprise and I hurriedly said, "Receive him with the best treatment." I can't be embarrassed in front of the young master. He's helped me so much, and if he sees that I'm not growing much, that's not going to work. ”
Luo Qiaoqiao smiled: "Naturally, I have already arranged it, you just need to meet him and negotiate tomorrow." Remember clearly, although he is the young head of the family, but you are also a person with a portal now, don't be blind in order to repay the favor, so that we have no benefit at all. ”
I nodded again and again, "Of course." ”
"Well......" Luo Qiaoqiao said satisfied, "since you agree, then go to sleep." Tsk, this car of gold bars, if you can get it, you will definitely make a lot of money. ”
I hummed, but I didn't care. Jiang Erqian will not be able to pit me, I know his character very well. Even, it's likely that he already has a plan, and just wants to call me to make a fortune together. I threw two boxes of cash to Luo Qiaoqiao, and then went back to my room to rest. Lying on the bed, I was still thinking about what Jiang Xue said to me.
Lily......
I thought about it for a long time, and when I fell asleep, I suddenly woke up from my dream, and there were already tears on my pillow. I looked at the gray ceiling and couldn't help but whisper: "It turns out that it is difficult for self-pity to enter the world, and I planted this flower before the court." ”
