Chapter 733: Zhan Ran's Intentions at This Time
At that time, Pat was waiting for him to adjudicate, and today he is waiting for Pat's current teacher to adjudicate, and the development of the world is really wonderful.
Verin didn't feel ironic, just full of regret and helplessness in his heart. -- Who would be willing to give up a disciple whom he favored and liked unless he had to do so? Taking a step back, even if that disciple was not valued by himself, as a cultivator, would it be nice to give up his reputation as a disciple?
It's just that things have passed, and so many years have passed, and anything else is in vain.
Besides, he was already half a man in the ground, what was there to be afraid of? Before, if it had not been for the bitter pleas of Pat's father, he would have preferred to die rather than step into this place.
Looking at the old man whose entire body and mind were obviously in the midst of sinking and vicissitudes, standing from the perspective of a fellow cultivator, Fang Tian sighed slightly in his heart, and did not feel embarrassed, but quite gently explained the situation of mosquito coils to the person opposite, and then asked, are you willing to manage on your behalf and arrange the raw materials for mosquito coils to be planted for a long time in Sanhe Town?
The few plants needed to produce mosquito coils are currently in the responsibility of the temple, but this is only an expediency, not a long-term solution, and, in the final analysis, in Fang Tian's plan, mosquito coils are only a small thing after all, and there is really no need to occupy the temple, which is actually quite a high-end human resource.
Then, it is inevitable to find a place in the jurisdiction of Yanhuang City to be in charge of this matter.
The jurisdiction of Yanhuangcheng, the three cities and twenty-eight towns, the three cities can be excluded, they will be responsible for more important affairs in the future, and there are several other towns that can also be excluded because they already have characteristic production or can develop characteristic production, but there are still about twenty towns left.
"Mosquito Town". It can be any of these towns.
And since it is arbitrary, of course Fang Tian is also arbitrary, there is no need to consider any other factors, whichever he says, it is which. - That being the case, when you think of the person Verin and the town of Trois-Rivières where he is located, then this is it.
And for Verin, after hearing Fang Tian's words. The first reaction was that I had heard it wrong, and then I felt incredulous. But after raising his head and looking at the other party for a long time, under Fang Tian's gaze again, the old magician had mixed feelings in his heart, and he didn't know what it was like to bow deeply. Then he said, "Verin took the order, thank you, my lord." ”
Fang Tian bowed slightly.
looked at the figure of the other party staggering away slightly. Fang Tian sighed again.
The other party's pace is not faltering. is still very stable, but in Fang Tian's eyes, well, in fact, it is not a simple look, but a more comprehensive judgment, the other party's "life state". It's a stumbling step.
This old man will be at the seventh level for the rest of his life, and it is impossible for him to go up again.
And, with the aging of the years. The various "indexes" that belong to the cultivators are also in a slow but irreversible decline.
Even more than this state of mind and body, even just now, Wei Lin's mood and feelings, he had a relatively intuitive and deep experience, and this kind of experience, I don't know if it was brought to him by that inexplicable realm, or if it was brought to him by his current level of cultivation.
But it seems that these two are actually more or less the same thing?
And it was precisely because he experienced the other party's mood and feelings that Fang Tian sighed in his heart.
To be honest, Fang Tian didn't have any bad feelings towards this old magician in his heart, and of course, he didn't have any good feelings. Fang Tian just thought that this person was not a bad person. ――
Not a bad guy.
That's enough, and the rest can only lament the impermanence and perversity of fate.
At that time, Pat paid a heavy price, and that price was obvious and direct, if it wasn't for meeting him later, it is not difficult to imagine how Pat's life would have ended in the end. But this magician who expelled his beloved disciple from his door did not pay a price.
It's just that the price is more hidden.
Retreat under force, and then make an irreparable choice, outside, will be subject to all kinds of things in the circle and silent accusations, inside, after making this choice, in the days to come, how to get their minds?
Therefore, his price is this life, and since that incident, he has not made any progress in the practice of magic. Then, it is an old magician who has been stifled from the possibility of moving forward, and he has endured the years in the bitterness, helplessness, and regret that it is impossible not to have it.
And who is to blame for the whole thing?
The source of the strange guide zhì What happened to Morithi?
Blame Pat who insists on brotherhood and then doesn't know the height of the sky?
Is it strange that he is not a bad person, but just an old magician who follows the rules of society and makes the "right" choice?
Blame the powerful man behind him?
Among these four, except for the last one to be discussed, the other three, especially the third party, Fang Tian really didn't think that the other party was much wrong. -- Don't hold everyone to a high moral standard.
In this regard, Confucius did a good job.
Although in the previous life, the whole of China had always liked to kill people with morality, and many people in later generations blamed this behavior on Confucian poison, so that in the end it was directly attributed to Confucius, anyone who really turned over the Analects roughly will come to a conclusion: Confucius was really pragmatic.
In Fang Tian's current view, the core idea of Confucius is just one sentence, that is, to admit reality, base on reality, and then on this basis, wish yourself and others, and make progress every day.
"Acknowledging reality and basing oneself on reality" is an extremely important point, and anyone who does not understand this will run counter to the core of Confucius.
"Acknowledging reality" will not hide ugliness.
That's why Confucius said, "If you are a threesome, you must have my teacher." ”
It is impossible for everyone in the world to be the same, and different means that there are differences, and this difference, in the eyes of Confucius, is a place where you can learn, "choose those who are good and follow them, and change those who are not good." ”
Whether it's good or bad, you can see yourself from it and make yourself better.
Therefore, Confucius said, "I am cheap when I am little, so I can do many things." ”
When I was young, I was born at the bottom and my family was poor. For the sake of livelihood, there will be many deacons who work hard. ――Not to mention the era when the upper and lower hierarchies were relatively straightforward, even in the future generations thousands of years later, how many people can say such things calmly?
"Based on reality", we will not be too demanding of ourselves and others.
Just like the case of Duanmu saving people and Zigong saving people, Zigong received a reward for saving people and Duanmu gave a person to save people without receiving a reward, Confucius praised the former but did not praise the latter, because of. The latter is not unworthy of praise, but the vast majority of people in the world cannot do this.
Take out the "things that most people can't do" and use them as a benchmark over time. This benchmark will be ignored by everyone and will be completely abolished.
Take, for example, Mencius, who was known as the "sub-sage".
Mencius said. "The people are precious. The community is secondary, and the monarch is light. ”
This will really encourage many "people", why? The most "expensive"!
But reality not?
If it is really "the king is light", then whose head is kicked by a donkey, and the good nobles do not do it, and become this lowly king? The essence of this sentence is almost to say. The higher you climb up, the higher the level, the more lowly you become.
This fundamentally denies the meaning of everyone's struggle and effort.
So. This word, even if it is "the people", will only be preached by the people at the lowest level and who have no way to retreat, and those who have a little status and can move forward will only ignore this sentence.
In fact, even the "people" at the bottom themselves, even if they preach this, it is impossible for them to agree with this sentence in their hearts.
Because this statement is inherently wrong.
is not based on reality.
The meaning of this statement is that it puts forward such a deafening thought, which is a stimulant for all oppressed people, but stimulants can be used occasionally, and have the effect of invigorating the spirit, if they are used for a long time, then this person must be abolished.
Real life will eventually return to the track of "based on reality".
Based on reality, we can move forward little by little in a down-to-earth and real way, both for individuals and for society.
In a sense, anything that is not based on reality is a kind of "stimulant" or "drug", which immerses or indulges in a dreamlike "perfection", so that people see reality as dirt, and then either cynical, or disgusted, or have the desire to escape.
In this way, under the soap bubble-like "perfection", and then his own body and mind are also broken and ruined step by step.
"Stay away from upside-down dreams. ”
Fang Tian suddenly remembered a sentence from the Buddhist scriptures of his previous life.
A qiē sage is based on reality, relying on reality, and based on the present and present.
The next moment, in Fang Tian's heart, such a realization slowly flowed, and the next moment, in the sea of knowledge, the tens of thousands of "suns" of different sizes suddenly burned violently.
And this burning was a long time, after the movement finally stopped, Fang Tian found that almost all the "suns" were smaller, completing more or less "shrinking", among them, there were many "suns" that dissipated directly.
The whole sea of knowledge, and those "suns", show an indescribable clarity or purity, to use an inappropriate description, like the sky after the rain, an indescribable freshness.
And the point of light in the center of Zhihai is both bright and soft, exuding a shining light.
As soon as Fang Tiangang felt this, next, he couldn't help but immerse his whole body and mind in it, and when he came back to his senses again, it was already a night had passed, and a new day had arrived.
The rain washes the sky and the sky is pure, and the wind rolls up the clouds. Zhan Ran at this time, who is the same through the ages?
Fang Tian slowly opened his eyes.
At this time, it was the middle of August, the rainy season had already passed, there was no rain, but Fang Tian felt a kind of purity after the rain washing from this heaven and earth, and even the air he breathed casually was so fresh.
Looking up, the sky is even clearer, and the east is gradually waiting for the sunrise.
With a thought in his mind, he turned back to the Seven Star Island in a way that was even more "instantaneous" than the "teleportation" when he stepped into the mage, and in the small building, Fang Tian summoned Pat, and then told him in detail about the placement of Verin.
In fact, even if it was detailed, that is, a matter of a few sentences, it was the kind that Fang Tian couldn't save if he wanted to.
Pat listened quietly.
Fang Tian just explained, there was actually nothing to discuss about this matter, and after this time, this matter would be completely over. Then, Fang Tian was to test Pat's recent cultivation progress.
In fact, Fang Tian only needs to "see", and he doesn't need to ask much.
Pat didn't care about everything, he made a confession, and reversed to Fang Tian just listened quietly, waiting for his confession to finish, and did not express any opinion, and then motioned for him to retreat.
After Pat left, Fang Tian was thinking about what he was going to do today, when he saw Gallodos and the other archmages who had been away collectively for a while return collectively again and landed directly in front of his small building.
And with them landed, there was another, another......
Fang Tian looked at it intently, and the next moment, the dog's eyes were blind.
Nima, what did he see?
Car?
Sport utility vehicle?
In short, a car!
Damn, could it be that they crossed over in a group? Fang Tian complained in his heart, but he got off the small building, ignored a group of archmages, and came directly to the all-handmade version of the car, looking at it carefully.
He ignored a group of archmages, and a group of archmages did not ignore him, but stared at him with red eyes, as if eagerly waiting for his opinion or to say it directly, praise?
Fang Tian just watched.
Look left, look right, look in circles from beginning to end, just don't express any opinion.
After a while, all the archmages who should have been calm and looking at the sky for three hundred years without turning their heads couldn't help it, or Galodos took the lead, stepped in front of Fang Tian, directly took Fang Tian's hands, didn't let him turn in circles again, and said, "Little friend, look at this, 'car', how about it?"
"Well," Fang Tian groaned, and he didn't speak for a long time.
Sure enough, another archmage couldn't hold his breath, and also walked over and said, "Xiaoyou, tell me, how is this 'car'?"
"You built it?" Fang Tian asked.
This is actually nonsense, but no one was impatient, but another archmage stepped forward and said, "Yes, little friend, we old fellows fought together. ”
Although it was said to be "blind fighting", the smugness in his tone and the eagerness to look forward to Fang Tian's statement as the "most authoritative person" were simply beyond words, Fang Tian couldn't tease this group of hands-on ability MAX archmages anymore, but nodded slightly and said, "It looks good, wait for me to open it and take a look." ”
Galodos let go, and then a group of archmages hurriedly dispersed to make room for Fang Tian.
Fang Tian took the car to the outer Great Plains, and then sat in it.
Sitting in the seat, and then in front of you, is a large steering wheel, made of handmade solid wood, in fact, the whole car, including the wheels, is made of wood.
The switch is obvious, on the left side of the steering wheel, what is exposed is a small wooden block that can be moved, which can be broken left or right, and now, the small wooden block stays on the left side.
Fang Tian stretched out his hand, and with a little force, the small wooden block clicked and slid to the right side.
Then the whole body of the car shook slightly, and then it began to run wildly on this great plain silently but with great power, like a cheetah. (To be continued......)
