Let's talk about Zhao Xi, a little person

In "Sailing the World", Liu Hanyan's second brother Zhao Xi is a very small character, from his appearance in the twelfth chapter to his death in the fifty-fifth chapter, there are not many words involving him, but I think the tragic life of this small character has its accidental and inevitable development trajectory.

1, Chapter 12 is his first appearance, because Wang Hou's night pearl was favored by Zhuang Zhaoxue, at first Wang Hou did not agree to sell it to them, because at this time Wang Hou played a small food and clothing without worry, only out of the rivers and lakes, where do you know the value of two thousand taels of silver (equivalent to more than 400,000 now).

In this case, Zhuang Zhaoxue followed Wang Hou's inn, and of course called the senior brother Liu Zhaohui and the second senior brother Zhao Xi. At that time, Zhao Xi was "sitting and not moving, and he was also in his twenties, with a high nose, pursed lips, and indifferent eyes." Then everyone spoke, and he "kept his head down to eat and drink, but when he looked at Liu Hanyan, his eyes were much softer," until Wang Hou took out the night pearl, and he" raised his head at this time, but his eyes were shining. ”

Can it be seen that Zhao Xi is a taciturn person, but his eyes shine brightly when he sees the night pearl, but he is a little selfish.

2. In the next chapter, Wang Hou, Liu Zhaohui and other six people were eating in a restaurant in Fanchang, because the fat monk of Xijiuhua teased Liu Hanyan and Zhuang Zhaoxue, Zhao Xi didn't say a word, stood up and walked over to the fat monk. A move "Nezha Explores the Sea" steel fork stabbed out, but it was defeated by the fat monk with one move" I felt a shock from the tiger's mouth, and the steel fork almost flew out of his hand. ”

Later, after Wang Hou secretly frightened the fat monk, he picked up a piece of fish meat for Liu Hanyan, put it in Liu Hanyan's bowl, and was thrown to the ground by her angrily. At this time, Zhao Xi had a straight face, looked at Wang Hou coldly, turned his head to Liu Hanyan and said, "Senior sister, you, you have to eat some, don't be angry." ”

Here, Zhao Xi was already dissatisfied with Wang Hou's hospitality, but he showed his concern for Liu Hanyan.

That night, Zhao Xi and Liu Zhaohui were in the same room, and Zhao Xi said: "Senior brother, no one dares to mess with our Sun Sect in Rizhao, what a beautiful scenery, I don't want to be bullied by four monks today, causing Senior Sister Yan and Senior Sister Xue to almost be humiliated, it's really hateful!" Then he said, "Senior brother, we definitely won't get the nine-colored lotus, why don't we go home?" ”

With his withdrawn character, no one dared to mess with him when the sun was shining, but when he went outside, he lost to others in one move, suffered a setback, and had already given birth to a retreat.

When they were talking, Zhuang Zhaoxue and Liu Hanyan had such a conversation. Zhuang Zhaoxue snorted: "I see that he picks vegetables for you, and he seems to like you a little...... I'm afraid that Senior Brother Zhao will be jealous, hehe...... "Liu Hanyan snorted: "You will talk nonsense, I only regard Senior Brother Zhao as an elder brother." "Senior Sister Yan, I'm afraid I can't help you, Senior Brother Zhao likes you very much." "Oh, Senior Sister Xue, are you annoying, ...... sleep?"

In this conversation, through Zhuang Zhaoxue's mouth, it was said that Zhao Xi liked Liu Hanyan, but Liu Hanyan only regarded him as an elder brother, and when Zhuang Zhaoxue said this, Liu Hanyan was a little annoyed with him.

3. The next day, in the woods of Tongling, Zhao Xi was once again given to the monk of Xijiuhua, and he was ready to go back, which strengthened his determination to return. He said to Liu Zhaohui: "Senior brother, I, I don't want to go to this Jiuhua Mountain." ”

Zhao Xi was already disheartened by the failure last night, Liu Zhaohui knew that he was originally a lonely character, and today he suffered a fiasco, so he even had the idea of retreating, and asked: "Senior Brother Zhao, where are you going to go?" Zhao Xi replied: "I want to go home first...... Senior brother and two junior sisters, go and see the nine-colored lotus. ”

Wang Hou was very uninteresting at this time, and asked: "Brother Zhao, Jiuhua Mountain is in sight, wouldn't it be a pity to withdraw at this time?" Zhao Xi ignored him, and only said to Liu Zhaohui and the others: "You should also be careful!" Then he turned and left. Seeing that Zhao Xi ignored him, Wang Hou asked Liu Hanyan with a smile: "Yan'er, did I say something wrong?" ”

In fact, when I wrote this, my colleague asked me, didn't Zhao Xi like Liu Hanyan, why did he return to Rizhao alone? I don't think Zhao Xi is a person who can bear the burden of humiliation, he was rescued by Liu Yaotian when he was three years old, his personality is incomplete, and he has been frustrated again and again, which is a blow to him, so it is reasonable for him to go back alone. And with his cold and arrogant character, it was not difficult to develop into a later stage, when he pushed Wang Hou into the sea.

4, Zhao Xi appeared again, it was at the Peach Blossom Laughing Restaurant in Lianyungang, Wang Hou and Liu Hanyan entered the room, "Zhao Xi also stood up, looked at Liu Hanyan but didn't speak, and turned his eyes to Wang Hou. At this time, he was already dissatisfied with Wang Hou. Then there is this description:

Zhao Xi looked at Wang Hou coldly, didn't answer, poured himself a glass of wine, and drank it dry as soon as he raised his head. Zhuang Zhaoxue saw that the atmosphere was not right, and explained: "Don't be surprised, Senior Brother Zhao and we were severely scolded by the master, and now the mood is still not good. ”

Liu Hanyan asked, "Senior Sister Zhuang, why is my father angry with me?" Zhao Xi said at this time: "Master is worried about you." Liu Hanyan was dissatisfied: "My father is really, I'm not a child anymore, and I still manage it so tightly." Zhuang Zhaoxue saw that the two of them were not speculative, so they were busy diverting the topic.

The next day, when the five of them arrived at the restaurant, Zhuang Zhaoxue saw that Zhao Xi's eyes were dark, and asked, "Senior Brother Zhao, didn't you sleep well last night?" Zhao Xi shook his head: "No, sleep well." Zhuang Zhaoxue said to Liu Zhaohui again: "Senior brother, I want to go back to Rizhao with Senior Sister Yan today, so as not to worry Master, you just wait for news here." Liu Zhaohui nodded, but heard Zhao Xi say, "I'll go back too." "I'm not going back!" Liu Hanyan shouted loudly.

Here, Zhao Xi's withdrawn character is reflected again, and Liu Hanyan can't talk about him at all, which is why Liu Hanyan has always disliked him, right?

5. Later, he and Wang Hou were on the Jade Girl Peak, Zhao Xi talked about his life experience, and was silent for a long time: "I have never said so many things once in my life, and I say it now, just to tell you, Brother Wang, I want to do my filial piety for my master and become a member of the Liu family." So...... Please forgive me! After saying that, a sudden palm slapped out, Wang Hou was caught off guard and fell off the cliff.

With Zhao Xi's character, his act of killing Wang Hou, the so-called deep hatred of love, the more he likes Liu Hanyan, the more he may not be able to tolerate Wang Hou.

6, Zhao Xi's appearance in Rizhao was to report the situation to Master Liu Yaotian, and then Sect Master Liu left him alone: "Xi'er, the last time you came back alone, I saw you sullen, you were brought up by me, I know my temperament, and I also like your arrogance, but you can't drill the horns of the bull in everything, and when Yan'er comes back, I will punish her heavily." Zhao Xi said in a low voice: "Master, don't blame Senior Sister Yan. Sect Leader Liu looked at Zhao Xi and nodded: "It's good if you can think like this...... Go down too, and I will be quiet for a while. ”

Here, Liu Yaotian likes this apprentice very much, and is also ready to marry his daughter Liu Hanyan to him. In fact, Sect Leader Liu was a big man after all, and he noticed Zhao Xi's abnormality, but he did not take effective persuasion measures, which also led to the tragedy later.

At this point, Liu Yaotian is not as sensitive as Lin Meiying, because when she was in the Peach Blossom Sect, Lin Meiying and her daughter Liu Hanyan had the following conversation.

Lin Meiying asked, "Yan'er, does your second senior brother Zhao Xi like you?" Liu Hanyan replied: "How do I know, I just treat him as an elder brother." Lin asked again: "But if one day, he likes you, but you don't like him, and he wants to die in front of you, what will you do?" ”

Liu Hanyan replied: "Mother, what are you talking about?" Why don't I understand, why did Senior Brother Zhao do that? Lin Meiying sighed: "Child, if you can understand and understand this emotional matter, then there won't be so many partings of life and death......

Liu Hanyan seemed to be listening carefully, and said for a while: "If Senior Brother Zhao really does that, I won't see him as soon as possible, so that he can't see me, and I don't want to see him." Lin Meiying said: "There is no good way, I want to go this time, I have time to talk to Zhao Xi." It's a pity that Lin Meiying hasn't seen Zhao Xi yet, and Zhao Xi has already been in trouble.

7, Zhao Xi's final appearance. It was a few people who went to the ginkgo forest to play, and it was written like this in chapter 55: After walking out of more than two miles, Zhao Xi suddenly stopped and said to Liu Hanyan: "Senior Sister Yan, I have a few words to say to you." Liu Hanyan stopped and asked, "What does Senior Brother Zhao want to say?" Zhao Xi swallowed, Zhuang Zhaoxue saw the situation, and pulled Zhou Qingzhu forward, and Liu Zhaohui and Zhang Qingling also walked slowly.

Zhao Xi saw everyone walking away and asked, "Senior sister, that Wang Hou...... How are you treated? Liu Hanyan's face was slightly hot: "Why are you asking this?" Zhao Xi sighed: "Senior sister, before I went to Jiuhua Mountain, I had always been very happy, but in the past two months, I have not been happy for a day. ”

"Senior Brother Zhao, what's wrong with you? Why are you unhappy, is it sick? Liu Hanyan asked. Zhao Xi shook his head: "Senior sister, you still care about me." Where I am sick, it is sick, and it is also ...... I am sick because of you, and I am sick in my heart. Liu Hanyan said: "Senior Brother Zhao, what are you talking about, why can't I understand?" ”

Zhao Xi gritted his teeth and seemed to have made a lot of determination: "Senior sister, we grew up together, from childhood to adulthood, I can't lose you." Liu Hanyan said angrily: "Senior Brother Zhao, aren't I good?" What does it mean to lose me? Zhao Xi hugged her and said loudly: "Senior sister, I, want, marry, you!" ”

Liu Han snapped, stretched out his palm and slapped him in the face, and said angrily: "Senior Brother Zhao, I have always regarded you as my own brother, how can you be like this!" With that, he turned and ran forward. Zhao Xi stood in place, his mind blank, and muttered: "Senior sister, junior sister...... I was an orphan when I urinated, it was Master who saved me, it was you who grew up with me, I can't lose you, I don't want to live without you. But it was tears that flowed.

What kind of emotions will Zhao Xi have at this time? I think he probably had everything, but I think it was more of a disappointment, even despair. When he saw Liu Hanyan having a conflict with others, this emotion finally burst out, and he really fought with others, and finally:

Zhao Xi was holding a long sword through his chest at this time, and was helped by Liu Hanyan and Zhang Qingling to sit on the ground. Liu Hanyan cried: "Senior Brother Zhao, why don't you hide? Zhao Xi smiled and said softly, "Senior sister...... Don't cry, I can't ...... Let others deceive ...... Negative you. He smiled again: "Thank you...... Senior Sister Xue, don't save me. Smoke, I'm right...... I can't afford you, ...... in this life Can't spoil you anymore...... I've got you. ”

Liu Hanyan hugged Zhao Xi and cried bitterly: "Senior brother, why are you so stupid...... I don't want you ......to die" Zhao Xi suddenly sat up straight, stretched out his right hand to wipe the tears on Liu Hanyan's face: "Senior sister, I can't ...... Losing Your ...... I live without you...... What else...... Meaning? With that, he pulled out his sword with his backhand, and blood spurted like an arrow.

Everyone screamed, but Zhao Xi laughed and said, "Dad, mother...... The child is coming! A mouthful of blood spurted out, and his body fell backwards, already out of breath.

At this point, Zhao Xi ended his tragic life. I write about such a person, of course, it is fictional, but in reality, it is not difficult to see that there are not many people with Zhao Xi's character, and they will find it difficult to tolerate a small thing, because a small thing will go to the extreme.

Regarding Zhao Xi's death, I mentioned earlier that I shed tears for him when I revised this text. Zhao Xi's clarity has the meaning of brightness and clarity, and I want to express such an emotion through Zhao Xi's little character: It is normal to be cloudy and sunny, and only if our mentality has more sunshine, life will be full of sunshine.
