Chapter 139: Good Man
The sky has brightened, but there is no sun, the whole village is still gloomy, tossing all night, Zhang Qingshan and Yin Liheng are a little unable to hold on, Lin Qi does not feel so uncomfortable, let Yin Liheng and Zhang Qingshan go to sleep, he sits outside the door to guard, the formation has been laid out, anyone who wants to enter the village, must pass through Liu Bowen's old house, as long as they guard the door, it is a husband, ten thousand people do not open.
Liujiacun is very quiet, I don't know if it is the effect of the Seven Star Xuanling Array, everything is quiet, Lin Qi enjoys this quietness very much, quietly watching the smoke rise from one household to another, a burst of warmth emerges in his heart, as if there is a voice in his heart: "Qi'er, get up, my mother has boiled rice porridge for you, get up quickly!" Little bastard......"
When he was young, he longed for the outside world, but when he grew up, he missed the small yard of Huaishu Village, people are sometimes so strange, when they have it, they always feel bland, and when they lose it, they always miss it, Lin Qi stayed quietly like this, he didn't feel bored or unbearable, his heart was calm at this moment.
He grew up in such a village, and knew that there were many families in the village like him when he was a child, with loving mothers and filial children, and happy children. Lin Qi didn't have as much truth as Yin Liheng, and he didn't know what to do to eliminate demons, and he knew that he couldn't let the demons destroy the many happy homes in the village, and he didn't want to see other children displaced and lose their parents like him. That's all he thinks and does.
Liu Bowen brought a cup of tea and sent it out, and saw Lin Qi sitting at the door from a distance, he was not sitting cross-legged like a cultivator, just sitting lazily, with his knees propped up, and then putting his head on his knees.
It's just that this young man's back feels so lonely forever, he can feel that Lin Qi's heart is closed and not easy to open to others, but behind his strong and stubborn back, there is a weak heart, otherwise he wouldn't have said that kind of explanation to himself. He is a strange person, but he has a rather strange attraction, and he can't help but attract everyone around him to him, which is strange, but real.
"Brother Lin, it's cold in autumn, and drinking a cup of hot tea can drive away the cold." Liu Bowen summoned gently, Lin Qi turned back and smiled at him, and said, "Trouble Mr. Liu." ”
Lin Qi's face was very pale, but his eyes were dark and bright, when he faced him, Lin Qi was like a knife, a sharp and straight peerless treasure knife, although he was young, he didn't dare to despise him. But when he smiled, it was like a March spring breeze that could blow the frozen world in an instant. A man's smile is so charming? Liu Bowen even was in a trance, and sighed secretly in his heart, if he always smiled, wouldn't all the women in the world have to be abducted by him?
Lin Qi never refused the kindness of others, nor did he stand up, took the teacup, gently blew off the tea powder on it, took a sip, Liu Bowen said: "This is this spring's Biluo Spring, Brother Lin drink and see." ”
Lin Qi said with a smile: "Mr. Liu is polite, I won't tell you, I don't understand the way of tea, I don't understand it at all, this kind of good tea, the two famous disciples in the house may understand, for me, what tea is in the mouth is the same as the big bowl of tea outside the village, this tea is still left for others to drink, it is a waste for me to drink." ”
Liu Bowen was stunned, most people in the world don't know how to pretend to understand, even if they don't understand, they will politely say a good word of tea, it is really rare to be as straightforward as Lin Qi, and if you don't understand, you don't understand, and you can't understand it, and it makes Liu Bowen, who understands tea, a little embarrassed.
Liu Bowen smiled, covered up his embarrassment, and said: "Dongting Biluo Spring Tea is produced in Dongting Mountain, Taihu Lake. Taihu Lake is vast, with rippling blue water and vast smoke waves. Dongting Mountain is located on the shore of Taihu Lake, the climate is mild, warm in winter and cool in summer, the air is fresh, the clouds and mist are filled, the tea tree grows uniquely, the Biluo spring tea is slender, curled into a snail, full of hair, and the color is green. After brewing, the taste is fresh and fresh, fragrant and fragrant, the soup is green and clear, and the bottom of the leaves is fine and tender. Especially the Biluochun you drink, you can first flush the water and then put the tea, the tea leaves are still sinking slowly, and the leaves are fragrant, which is the performance of the strong tea buds, and it is also incomparable to other teas. Therefore, there is such a saying among the folks: Biluochun is "copper wire strip, spiral-shaped, hairy, one tender and three fresh, since ancient times". ”
Liu Bowen introduced the details, Lin Qi couldn't help but take another sip, it was indeed a fragrant attack, he picked up the teacup, turned his head to look at Liu Bowen and said: "Mr. has something to say, don't hide it, I'm a rough person, these elegant things, it's useless to learn." ”
Lin Qi's eyes opened, as if a cold light swept by, as if he could see through people's hearts. Liu Bowen was standing, Lin Qi was sitting, but Liu Bowen felt that Lin Qi was looking down on him from above, sitting as steady as a rock, chic and free. Those who are standing, but they are restless, and they are down, and it is better to talk to such strangers than to be natural.
Liu Bowen leaned on Lin Qi and sat down, and said: "I want to Xie Lin's explanation, but I can't get down for a while, I just want to say it tactfully, hey, I'm really old, and I can even learn to act like this." ”
Lin Qi smiled slightly: "Mr. is a pedantic, I admire him very much, is it a scholar, it's nothing if you are taller." ”
Liu Bowen said: "After all, I want to thank you, without your words, I am afraid that it will be difficult to get out for a long time, the death of the three friends, like a boulder pressing on the heart, they all have university questions, admired by others, but they died in such a bizarre and strange thing, what is the use of decades of hard study?" No matter how great the knowledge is, it doesn't mean that you just leave, when you are sad and sad, you will inevitably think of yourself, will you be the same as them? Life is really like a white cloud and a dog, I don't know when it will appear, and I don't know when it will be annihilated, which is embarrassing. ”
Lin Qi said: "Doesn't Confucianism say that life is unknown and death is known? ”
Liu Bowen's old face turned red and said, "When you are really facing life and death, who said what does it matter?" ”
Lin Qi smiled and didn't answer, as if he didn't want to talk to Liu Bowen anymore, Liu Bowen wanted to open his mouth several times, but found that there was nothing to say, in the face of Lin Qi, he always had a point where he had nothing to say, he groaned, stood up and said: "Brother Lin, you are a good person, I, Liu Ji, thank you." He bowed as he spoke.
Lin Qi still didn't stand up, looked at him calmly and said: "I'm most afraid that others will say that I am a good person, and I am not a good person, Mr. Liu, you are very knowledgeable, you come to tell me, do good people really have good rewards?" I once asked my master, he was a good man, but he ended up in a disillusionment, and I didn't believe what he said. ”
Liu Bowen groaned and said: "Good people are virtuous, and virtue should be rewarded." A good person is a person with high morality, a fair thought, a good soul, and the end of his behavior. In the "Book of Rites", it is said: "Those who are virtuous will also be gained." "De" and "De" have the same sound, and they have a certain cause and effect. "Virtue" is the foundation of "gain", and "gain" is the fruit of "virtue". "De" leaves "morality", it leaves the taste, personality, ethics, and observance of "de", and its "gain" can only be a loss of morality, loss of morality, and defeat of morality, and "gain" is shameful, humiliating, sad, and ugly. "De" loses its "gain", its "virtue" loses its role, and "virtue" becomes empty and empty, and becomes a saying, ornament, appearance, without any meaning. Therefore, only with virtue can there be gains, only with virtue can carry things, and only with virtue can we look at the public. It is also the same principle to plant a grain of millet in spring and harvest 10,000 seeds in autumn. ”
Lin Qi shook his head: "I don't understand what Mr. said, I know who is good to me, who is a good person, who is evil to me, who is a bad person, I only do things according to my heart, no matter good or bad, whether it is right or wrong, I understand why you thank me, and I also know why you say that I am a good person." I help you, this village, because I have something to ask you for, and I promised someone to help you. I don't want a good village, so many people, to become ghosts, and I don't want to see a happy family become desolate and defeated. I suffered a lot, empathy, always thinking that if someone helped me, maybe I wouldn't be so sad, Mr. Liu, you and I owe me something, if I can't stop the demon, I will definitely escape, I will not die here easily, when I have the ability to come and avenge you, so you don't have to thank me at all, I am telling the truth. ”
Liu Bowen was stunned, Lin Qi's words were straightforward to the point of cruelty, he stood in place and thought about it, and suddenly said: "No matter what you think, you can't stop other people's kindness to you, some things, there are some things, there are some closeness from the heart, it is useless for you to refuse." With that, he turned around and went straight away.
Lin Qi was stunned, he understood the meaning of Liu Bowen's words, no matter what you Lin Qi thought, he Liu Bowen thanked him, and he Liu Bowen felt very close to you. Lin Qi shook his head and smiled bitterly, it's not that he doesn't want to be close to people, it's just that over the years, people close to him have not ended well, his parents are dead, his master is dead, Zhou Dian is out of the rivers and lakes, and vaguely he wants to reject people thousands of miles away.
He doesn't want to carry too much, he just wants to travel lightly and live freely, but there are some things, can he really refuse? Lin Qi was stunned and thought about it, thinking stupidly, and I don't know when, the monk did it to his side, and said to him softly: "I have heard what you and Mr. Liu said, the poor monk wants to say, the world is a great sea of suffering, you and I are up and down in it, no one can escape, it is better to learn Buddhism from the poor monk and get to the other side as soon as possible......"
Lin Qi had a headache when he looked at the monk, and when he saw him come out to teach himself again, he frowned and listened to a few words, he wanted to hide away but didn't dare, seeing that the monk was sitting on the ground with a correct posture, he had a flash of inspiration and said: "Monk, I heard that you are the most powerful in meditation, why don't you and I try to see who can sit motionless for a longer time, okay?" ”
The monk's eyes lit up, and he laughed: "Nothing else can compare to you, but the poor monk who sits cross-legged kung fu is not convinced, come, I will compete with you......" (To be continued.) )
