Master's footsteps and I were quiet, but my heartbeat was like the strongest drumbeat, and the violent beating made my whole chest ache.

This pain is not the pain caused by physical injury, but a voice in my heart that is crying: "My happiness is only a little bit perfect, my happiness is really just a little bit perfect!" ”

Yes, I admit my 'greed', people are always like this, when there is nothing, longing for the day when they can stop running for food, they can eat happily, and when the wind and rain are cold, they want to have a thick shelter to let themselves sleep peacefully.

When one day you can really eat happily and not run around, when one day you really have a thick shelter.

What you want is to continue to eat like this the next day, and what you want is to have a comfortable bed under you to sleep in.

But, God, if you can hear me, then listen to me, I really only need one more person, my life will be perfect, I would rather eat rough food, live the simplest life, as long as there is one more person, I will definitely no longer be greedy.

How I long for this 'perfection' in my life, even if only one day.

"What are you thinking?" Master had already helped me to the waterhole at this time, and seeing that I was stunned in a daze, my expression was a little painful, and my brows were slightly furrowed, and I couldn't help but ask.

He was worried about me.

"I'm thinking of perfection." My face was a little pale, perhaps because of the pain, but because I was too religious, and when I said the word perfect, I couldn't help but squeeze out a smile on the corner of my mouth, as if the perfection was right in front of my eyes.

"It's not that God can't tolerate perfection, but how many lifetimes of kindness does it take for a perfection to enjoy it for a while? Therefore, people should be content, they must know how to appreciate imperfections, and accumulate a kindness with the fate of the world, maybe the perfection you want will come unexpectedly, right? "Master helped me to a big rock and sat down.

After thinking about it, he pulled me up again, took off his coat, and laid it on the rock, which was already slightly green, before letting me sit down again, and he just whispered, "Don't get cold." ”

The coat still carries the master's body temperature, but it makes me in a trance In fact, in the bamboo forest small building, the life of our master and apprentice was quite rough, how meticulous can the old man be? Master's indulgent and uninhibited personality is not to mention any meticulousness, but he has always been like this in me.

The medicinal food boiled on the red clay stove that night, the fragrant soup steam rising from the big wooden barrel he made with his own hands that night and night, until now this coat with his body temperature under me, perhaps, he has always been meticulous in his life, but all of them have been given to me.

Master sat down beside me, and once again quietly lit his dry tobacco, the figure smoking dry tobacco was still a little rickety, when was this happening? In the past, his back was always so upright, but how many things can be done in the morning and in the twilight?

Just like me now, there are also traces of fine gray hair in the flowing sea in front of my forehead, and Master and I have missed too many years after all, so there are some questions that don't need to be asked.

The deep pool in front of you, the murmuring of the flowing water tinkling ding dong resounding in the ears, this big stone, this deep pool, almost a picture of childhood and teenagers in the picture scroll that does not fade, but the picture does not fade, the body of this stone because of the long-term sitting and smooth, but the color is aggravated, in the end there is green moss, telling a loneliness of waiting?

"Master." I spoke, and the smell of dry tobacco surrounded me again.

"Huh?" The master raised his eyebrows slightly, and spat out a puff of dry smoke, the white smoke formed a clump in the black night, but it quickly dispersed and gathered, scattered, and it may be life.

"God can tolerate perfection I don't want to think about it, how many lifetimes of kindness maybe I can't see that far I just think, God, can I tolerate the happiness I want? Is that extravagant? My words resounded in this quiet night, accompanied by the sound of water and insects, but it was so lonely.

But the master did not answer my question directly, but sighed and read softly: "The wind is uncertain, people are impermanent, life is like duckweed, I call Ping drifting around the road, love and hate are also in a hurry, Ping traces the waves without a trace, the wind cuts the jade hibiscus Chengyi, do you hear this, have you ever had a trace of bitterness?" ”

I was silent.

"Although we are Taoists, in fact, what I just said can be summed up as a Buddhist Zen 'the wind has no fixed phase, and the clouds have no normal', you are obsessed with pursuing a happiness you want, but it just means that this red dust has not tempered you enough, idiot, do you want to let obsession become obsessed in your heart?" There was a hint of helplessness in Master's words.

He just wanted to tell me that the ultimate state of life is just a piece of nature, and when you meet the road, you will go, and when you meet the water, you will have a fixed heart, and its shore will appear by itself.

And this determination is just the determination to go on firmly, not the obsession that I must go anywhere, obsession becomes an obsession, people become crazy and once a person becomes crazy, where can I see any clear direction?

"Master" I can't speak, I naturally understand these truths, but I said that I wouldn't let go that year, and this year, I may not be a person who can let go.

"That's it, your own child's life, the bumpy road of love or the obsession generated by this red dust is also a tempering in your heart. Just like that Lin Furui, whether it is his fortune or his calamity is just a thought, but this refining process is essential. What's more, you are my apprentice, the sword mountain and the sea of fire, the abyss of red dust, and I, the master, can only walk with you with my eyes closed. As the master spoke, his brows furrowed, and he took another big puff of dry tobacco.

And I couldn't help but grab Master's hand, feel the rough calluses in it, and for a while I was speechless again.

"These days, you have been in a coma for a few nights, and I have fallen asleep beside you inexplicably. But it seems like a dream, I seem to see the girl like snow, sitting in front of your bed and crying, but I don't know for sure. Master finally spoke, accompanied by a sigh.

My hand shook, and I couldn't help but grasp Master's hand with force, and I remembered that night in India, that dream, that figure in the monitor that hurried by, like snow for her

Thinking of this, my lips couldn't help but tremble, but I couldn't say anything At this time, all kinds of emotions are entwined in my heart, what can I say? If it is to be completely broken, why should one person be quietly concerned? Or, Ruxue has insisted that this love is just her own business?

Because, that year, in the vast snow forest, the promise between her and me turned out to be a parting. Oh, others stay together, but we promise to part

"Chengyi, where is the snow? Ling Qing had been asking before, but no one was willing to answer, including Ruyue's girl, who was just crying. "Before Master, he never mentioned our respective experiences after separation, but looking at my abnormal face, he finally couldn't help but ask.

Or, Ruxue's state is so strange that even Master can't explain that he has to ask me for an answer.

I looked at the deep pool in front of me, and even my throat couldn't help but tremble, and it took me a long time to spit out two words: "Dragon Tomb." ”

"Dragon Tomb! Yes, I should have thought of it a long time ago, how could what the master said be wrong, you got the dust? Master's brows furrowed, and his eyes revealed deep shock and doubt.

"Hmm." I was so confused that I didn't know how to tell Master about this experience in detail.

"What does that have to do with that girl like snow?" Master's doubts are this, yes, the matter of the Dragon Tomb is a mark left by my ancestor's early travels, how can it be like snow?

"Because there's a bug that is scary. It is almost immortal, and only by bringing them to the Dragon Tomb can they disappear completely. Ruxue, she is a grave keeper. "That period of the past was repeatedly reflected in my mind, and the last time it was frozen in the dark gate, the figure that walked unswervingly, and my painful roar was forcibly dragged away by Brother Chengxin.

After all these years, the pain is still so clear, so clear that I feel as if I am indulging in the pain of the year when I think about it.

"Guarding the tomb, where are you guarding?" The master couldn't react for a while, he couldn't imagine how Ruxue had become a grave keeper.

"The place where the bones of the real dragon are buried." I had nothing to hide from Master, and I replied bitterly, burying my head between my knees, as if only in this way could I relieve the intense pain in my chest.

"Huh? What did you say? The master suddenly stood up from the rock, his brows were full of worry, and then he said in a lost voice: "Once, that true dragon was there, ready to truly break through the void and return to Kunlun!" After the defeat, the space there is extremely unstable, how can people stay there? ”

But, Master, Ruxue is just staying there! The one I will never be able to go again.

But before I could say anything, my heart suddenly began to throb violently, and I couldn't describe the pain, like two souls aching at the same time.

The film in my soul began to deform violently, as if something was about to burst out, but for a moment I couldn't break free of it.

I couldn't help but moan in pain, and in just a few seconds of this drastic change, the words that resounded in my head were such a sentence: "Is this really the case?" Reincarnation, is this the case? How many degrees of reincarnation do you have to be able to destroy it and cut it off?! Heh, how many reincarnations have you been indestructible? ”
