The whiteness faded, all the illusions between heaven and earth disappeared without a trace, and all things regained their own color.

The plain that stretches for thousands of miles has been left behind, and the thousands of high mountains have also been trampled under his feet between the top and bottom, and Zhuang Ming looked at the new plain that appeared in front of him with some blankness.

Not far away, another village is located.

"Master, there's a village ahead, should we go and see it?"

Zhuang Ming turned around and looked helplessly at Zhuang Zhoudao, who was lying sideways on a big stone at this time, holding a wine gourd, "Master, you should also drink a little less, we still have to hurry!"

"Hurry?" Hiccup ......"

Zhuang Zhou opened his drunken eyes, stretched out his hand and pressed it on the stone, and sat up slowly, he looked at Zhuang Ming with drunken eyes, "It's been sixteen years, you follow me every day to trek through mountains and rivers, do you know where we are going?"

When Zhuang Ming heard this, he scratched his head, and his face became even more dazed.

When he was born, he followed Zhuang Zhou, and when he was still in his infancy, he was in Zhuang Zhou's arms, looking at the ever-changing thousands of rivers and mountains.

Sixteen years, how long it is, in Zhuang Ming's view, is how many rivers have been crossed, how many mountains have been climbed, how many forests have been crossed, and how many plains have been passed. Or watch the flowers bloom a few times and the full moon a few times.

But the name of the village is sometimes troubled, because when you pass through the desert, you can't see if the flowers are blooming, and when it rains, you don't know whether the moon is round or curved.

But in any case, Zhuang Ming never thought about where he was going along the way. Because going on is the whole of his life, and without any other deviations, such a strange problem will naturally not arise.

"What about the master?"

Zhuang Ming raised his head and looked at Zhuang Zhou, and there seemed to be a little realization in his eyes.

"Where is Master going?" he followed Zhuang Zhou, where Zhuang Zhou's end is, his end point will naturally be there.

"Me?"

Zhuang Zhou was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up slightly, he looked at Zhuang Ming and smiled, "I, I just want to take you to see me." ”

......

Zhuang Mingleng for a while, then looked at Zhuang Zhoudao dissatisfied, "Master, you are drunk again." ”

"Hahahaha, I'm ...... Not drunk. Zhuang Zhou stood up from the stone, his body shook a little, and he almost fell, but when Zhuang Ming tried to help him, he stabilized his body again.

"Zhuang Ming, the me you see now is not the real me, at least not all of me, I am free, I am not a drunkard, haha...... Belch. ”

A dizzying smell of wine rushed in, Zhuang Ming hurriedly flashed his body, and after a while, he looked at Zhuang Zhou's swaying body, and finally held him up with some helplessness, and walked towards the village not far away.

"Every time I finish drinking, I talk nonsense, and next time I do this, I will definitely not care about you......"

The backs of the two of them are getting farther and farther away, and only the sound of Zhuang Ming muttering, with the wind, looms.

......

Although the village did not seem to be far away, when Zhuang Ming arrived with his master, the sky had gradually darkened. Zhuang Ming helped Zhuang Zhou to sit on a piece of grass, and bowed to an old man who was squatting on the ground smoking a pot next to him, "Uncle, we are passing by here, and it is getting dark, can you let us stay here for one night." ”

"Accommodation?"

The old man frowned when he heard this, he looked at Zhuang Ming in a daze, and after a long while, he shook his head.

"Baby, it's not that I don't keep you, but I hurt you by keeping you...... Alas, you better hurry while the moonlight is on your way, and twenty kilometers further there is a small town, and there is everything. ”

After the old man finished speaking, he didn't wait for Zhuang Ming's answer, he sighed and stood up, and walked slowly towards the village.

Zhuang Ming looked at the old man's back, but he felt a little strange, but he didn't think much about it, turned around, cleaned up the dead branches and leaves on the grass, and planned to spend the night like this.

In the long journey of the past, Zhuang Ming has experienced all kinds of environments, and has slept in all kinds of places, and the conditions in front of him are already good.

After cleaning up, Zhuang Ming lay down casually, holding his head in his hands and looking at the starry sky.

Following Zhuang Zhou for sixteen years, Zhuang Ming didn't learn much skills, but he developed a casual temperament, he didn't care about anyone's eyes, even the rush was casual, when to go, how far to go, which direction to go, these are all determined by Zhuang Ming, and Zhuang Zhou often does not give him any advice.

At the earliest, Zhuang Ming also asked if he chose to turn back, wouldn't he return to the original place and waste his time. But Zhuang Zhou told him that as long as he went on according to his own ideas, the result would be the same.

Later, Zhuang Ming would never ask again.

Casualness has become the soul and blood of the Zhuang name, and it will always be inseparable.

The night was deep, Zhuang Ming quickly fell asleep, and the fireflies quietly flew up and danced between the two.

......

"Woo woo woo ......"

"Please, if you want to kill us, old things, the children are innocent......"

......

"Uh......h Yes. ”

The chaotic sound rang out, and Zhuang Ming sat up, yawned, and stretched out his hands to rub his sleepy eyes.

"Forehead ......"

Zhuang Ming opened half of his eyes, looked at the scene not far away, the movements in his hands stopped, and the whole person was stunned.

"How so. ”

Zhuang Ming muttered, and hundreds of villagers not far away were surrounded by a group of strongmen armed with swords, several children were separated, and blood was constantly flowing around the ground.

Zhuang Ming stood up in horror and looked at Zhuang Zhou, who was sitting and drinking on the side.

"Don't worry, their target is the people of this village, and they won't attack us. ”

Zhuang Zhou glanced at Zhuang Ming and said casually.

However, the corners of Zhuang Ming's mouth trembled, and he looked at Zhuang Zhou incredulously and said, "Why don't you stop it." ”

"Why should I stop it?"

Zhuang Zhou raised his head and looked at Zhuang Ming.

"I thought you should have understood. Zhuang Zhou paused and continued, "You have seen hunters set traps to catch animals in the barren mountains, you should know that if those animals are not greedy, they will not fall into it. ”

Zhuang Zhou said, pointing his finger at the crowd not far away, "The leader of this group of strongmen was originally the son of a wealthy businessman, and in the early years, the rich merchant moved to another place with a family of more than 30 people. When passing through this place, the owner of the village saw the wealth, and took the strong men of the village to kill the family cleanly, and the son of the rich merchant fled to the mountains under the cover of the family.

Zhuang Zhou's expression was solemn, "Everything in the world, the cycle of cause and effect, you have seen so much, you should know that only by jumping out of cause and effect can you be at ease and at ease." ”
