Chapter 16 - Righteousness

Early the next morning, the winter day cleared.

Although the weather was not too bad before, it was gloomy and gloomy, which made people feel uneasy.

Now the red sun is rising, the sun is shining, and I suddenly feel open-minded and comfortable.

After the three of them left the city, when there were few people on the road, they couldn't help but let their horses gallop.

Although the cold wind was howling, it did not feel cold at all.

Ugliness is the most joyful. laughed all the way, which made Wu Youdao and Yan Nantian also smile.

When resting at noon, while being happy, Wu Youdao casually asked:

"Brother Yan, what is your life's ambition?

"Ha, there's nothing you can't say about that. ”

Yan Nantian laughed and said: "The ambition of the eldest brother's life can be described in four words, that is, - to do my best. ”

"In other words, the eldest brother's cultivation of martial arts is greedy for his own pleasure?"

Wu Youdao continued to ask, "Why isn't it a free immortal?"

"If you can live forever, it's good, but if you set your ambition to live forever, Yan can't do it. ”

Yan Nantian replied directly in one breath, obviously he had also thought about this question.

"Why?"

"Because the desire to live forever makes me feel uncomfortable. ”

Yan Nantian said happily: "For example, there is a person whose martial arts cultivation is far superior to mine, and there is an even more powerful force behind him, he has repeatedly bullied me, but as long as I silently bear this bullying, he will not kill me, nor will it affect my pursuit of immortality too much." Do you think I should resist and seek revenge?"

Wu Youdao somewhat understood.

replied: "With the temperament of the eldest brother, he wants to find an opportunity to resist and take revenge. ”

Yan Nantian said with a smile: "That's right, but in this way, there is a danger of being killed when taking revenge, even if he succeeds in revenge, he will be hunted down and killed by the forces behind him." Wouldn't this be inconsistent with the aspiration of a free and happy life? Therefore, in my opinion, it is better to obtain a free and long life by stealing peace, and it is better to try to be quick and fulfill my righteousness. Therefore, I act only to ask about the morality of my heart. ”

"Brother Yan has good ambitions! It is precisely with such ambition that he can act freely and open-mindedly. Sure enough, it's Brother Yan!"

After Wu Youdao understood, he couldn't help but praise and cheer loudly.

Recalling that I had encountered a similar contradiction at that time, it seemed that the ambition of a free life could not be established, and even if it did, it would be difficult to achieve the same intention and ambition.

It is better to refer to Brother Yan's ambition, this ambition is very good, and it is the fundamental core, but it can accommodate the ambition of immortality and leisure, and there are many other important aspirations such as sheltering relatives and friends can also be condensed on this core, and vice versa.

If you can't find other better ambitions, just take this as your ambition, even if it's the same as Brother Yan's ambitions, there's nothing wrong with it.

After thinking it through, the mood is relaxed.

looked at the ugly ugly who was eating dry food, and asked casually, "Ugly, what about your ambition?"

After listening to Yan Nantian's ambition, Chou Chou had actually been waiting for others to ask her, and when she was asked, she said loudly:

"Ugly's ambition is to stay with his brother all the time and grow up quickly. ”

"Also, when you grow up, you have to be beautiful, and you don't have ugly faces. Ugly added secretly.

A trace of sadness flowed in an instant, and in the blink of an eye, the ugly ugly asked rhetorically: "Brother, what about your ambition?"

"My brother didn't think about it at first, but now he thinks about it. ”

Wu Youdao smiled and replied casually: "That is to cultivate the invincible martial arts, so that Chouchou can always follow his brother, happy and carefree." ”

This casual ambition can be condensed into the core ambition of self-righteousness.

......

This day was more than 200 miles longer than before.

It wasn't until dusk that the three of them saw a large town in the distance.

When the three of them approached, they saw that at the entrance of the official road into the town, there was a road monument named "Jingyuan Town".

When you enter Jingyuan Town, you can see many inns that are brightly lit, and these inns are set up for passing warriors. Most of the people who came in and out during this period had weapons with them. The street is full of people coming and going, and the end is very lively.

The three of them were not picky, and soon found a decent inn and rested and stayed.

After resting after dinner, Yan Nantian came to the room of Wu Youdao and Wu Youdao as usual, and the three of them sat down and talked casually.

Ugly said that Jingyuan Town was prosperous and lively, and the implication was that he wanted to see and play.

Wu Youdao was fine anyway, so he casually agreed.

Yan Nantian shook his head with a smile and said, "You haven't seen a big city yet, that's why it's like this." The population of this Jingyuan town is only a few hundred thousand, which is nothing. Anyway, we will be in Yingshui City in a few days, which is a big city with a population of hundreds of millions, and it can be called really prosperous and lively. For now, it's better to get there as soon as possible after we have rested. At that time, the eldest brother will take you brother and sister to see it again. ”

The two heard that Yingshui City has a population of hundreds of millions, and it is really hard to imagine how prosperous and lively it is.

Not to mention anything else, I'm afraid there are dozens of duels every day in the dueling arena alone, right?

Wu Youdao immediately asked this question. Ugly is also very interested in this, and listens to it.

"That's true. ”

Yan Nantian said: "And there is more than one dueling arena, in addition to the central dueling arena, there are dozens of small dueling arenas. There are dozens of duels every day in the central dueling arena, and there are four arenas inside that allow duels to be fought at the same time. The central dueling arena is one of the liveliest places in every big city. In addition, the arena, martial arts, auction halls, and treasure shops are also the most lively and prosperous places. ”

Yan Nantian said that the prosperous places, Wu Youdao heard their names, and he could guess what these places were for.

But I was still very curious, and after asking one by one, I decided to go and see it.

After talking about Yingshui City, Wu Youdao asked Yan Nantian to talk about all kinds of interesting things he encountered in his experience. Yan Nantian didn't want to talk more about himself, so he changed the topic and asked Wu Youdao if there was anything else. The intention was to prepare to leave and return to the room to practice.

Wu Youdao didn't say much anymore, and ugliness had nothing to say. They don't mention their own cultivation.

The road was unimpeded, starting from Longjin Town, and the three of them rushed to Yingshui City in the evening of the afternoon of the ninth day.

During this period, although the weather turned cold and it suddenly snowed for half a day, it still walked in the snow. The day after that, it was sunny again, and the whole process was quite smooth.

This time, because I wanted to stay longer, I took advantage of the fact that it was still early and inquired all the way to the place where the Wufu was located. In addition to mathematics and physics, you can often hear people talking about the registration of the martial arts on the street. When I saw the gate of Wufu, I saw people coming and going, all of whom were still playing nearby after registering.

"This brother, has the registration for the Martial Mansion begun?" Wu Youdao asked casually, grabbing a passer-by.

"It started two days ago. Little brother, you're here to sign up too?"

"Exactly. ”

"Today is over, you have to come early tomorrow, otherwise you will have to wait in line for a long time. The man kindly reminded.

Wu Youdao even said thank you.

After that, I started to look for a suitable inn in the neighborhood. After another inquiry, I found a suitable inn four miles away from the gate of Wufu.

It's not that there is no inn nearby, but it's basically full of people, and I heard that the people who have been staying in recently are all martial artists who have come to prepare to participate in the martial arts test. Even if one or two still have vacant houses, it is because the environment is too poor, and no one wants to live in it.

By the time we got to find a place to stay and drop off our luggage, it was already completely dark.

Wu Youdao and the ugly and ugly two were not interested in playing at this time, and after dinner, Yan Nantian explained to Wu Youdao and the ugly and ugly the two about the registration he knew, and after discussing the matter of going to the martial arts house early tomorrow morning to register, they each washed and practiced martial arts to refine their true qi.

Sitting on the bed, Wu Youdao did not enter cultivation, but pondered the things he had set up to do.

During this hurry, Wu Youdao has been thinking about what kind of ambition he should set up, and the four words of self-righteousness have been hovering in his heart. I have also tried to find a better ambition, but have been unsuccessful. Then, in turn, trying to find out what was bad in it has so far been unsuccessful.

Do my duty, do my duty.

Why did he ask Yan Nantian's ambition so early, obviously he had already discovered that the ambition of Xiaoyao Changsheng was not suitable, as long as he deduced the contradictions, he would definitely be able to get the same ambition as to fulfill his righteousness. It's just that he couldn't summarize his ambition in four words like Yan Nantian for a while.

Since it's the same, let's be the same!

There is a saying that "heroes see things the same way", and that's probably what it's all about. There is also a saying called "like-mindedness". It seems that this is providence.

Wrong, that's what I mean!

Wu Youdao pondered quietly.

Providence, I will, I righteousness?

Providence is the will of God, I do not mean to do the way of heaven, I only do my way.

I mean that my will, although it is good, but it is complicated, it cannot be the core will, it can only be attached to the core.

My righteousness is the idea that I love, what I really seek, and what I praise.

It's doable, and it's a great idea to be at the core.

Actually, Brother Yan and I are two different people. So the "self-righteousness" of the two of us is different. It's really the same name.

In fact, the word "I" is very good, and today's "my righteousness" may be different from tomorrow's "my righteousness".

I am a different person at different times.

Using Shu My Righteousness as my core ambition can make my core ambition always my most important ambition, and I don't need to worry about my will being discouraged due to the change of my ambition, because my righteousness has been gradually evolving and changing.

Thinking of this, Wu Youdao's heart was happy.

I finally found my core ambition that satisfies me. Moreover, this ambition is definitely different and most in line with yourself.

Because its root is "me".

I should have a deeper understanding of the four words "do my best" than Brother Yan.

After all, when Brother Yan explained his ambition at that time, he mentioned my morality.

Obviously, Brother Yan pays more attention to "righteousness" rather than "me", and his "my righteousness" is actually the morality that righteous people follow first, but these morals are absorbed and changed after being reinterpreted and interpreted. In this process, Brother Yan's self-righteousness was greatly limited without realizing it, because he didn't analyze "me" too much.

After solving a difficult problem, Wu Youdao decided to relax first and then carry out true qi cultivation.

Thoughtless, relaxed.

The body lies casually on the bed.

This is a habit of Wu Youdao, after finishing something, you must always take a break first.
