Chapter 6: Talent
Ming Chen sat down and said, "A wise man said that only when you suffer hardship can you become a master. ”
When Chen Jing heard this, his eyes lit up.
Only then did he begin to look at the young man in front of him.
When I first saw Ming Chen, I was on guard.
When I knew where he came from, I ignored him.
To hear him compliment the two brothers was contempt.
He used the chat to clear his guard, and when he had a good conversation with the two brothers, he was surprised.
The curiosity when I talk to myself, the anger that catches my own pain points, and the shock now.
That sentence did shake his heart, but his will was not so easily shaken: "So, you think hard work is more important than talent?" ”
Ming Chen shook his head and said seriously: "I think hard work will be rewarded, and hard work will be rewarded." ”
"Don't you think hard work is more important than talent? Do you think another way of saying it will make me accept? Chen Jing was a little puzzled.
"Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"
He didn't respond to Chen Jing's question, but threw out a choice.
"What is the truth? What is a lie? Chen Jing was completely interested.
Seeing this, Ming Chen felt that he had succeeded.
It doesn't matter what the topic is, what matters is whether the other person is interested or not.
But he didn't mean to be perfunctory.
"Lies are what you want to hear, and truth is what I want to say."
Chen Jing thought for a while and said, "Let's talk about it." ”
"Greed."
"Hard work will pay off, and if it doesn't meet expectations, it means that your efforts are not enough."
"Is this true?" Chen Jing asked uncertainly.
"Liar!"
"Hard work can get rid of mediocrity, you can beat geniuses, you can go beyond the limit."
"Is this true?" Chen Jing asked expectantly.
"It's a lie, too!" Ming Chen ruthlessly punctured his illusions.
Chen Jing's eyes flashed with anger: "Why do you want to tell lies twice? ”
"Huh? You found out. Ming Chen covered his mouth exaggeratedly.
Chen Jing squinted, as if to say: Do you think I'm a fool?
"Okay, okay, it's actually because some people believe the lies, and no one believes the truth."
He hurriedly explained, and at the same time motioned for Chen Jing to let go of his clenched fists.
"Okay, you don't have to say it, I've got it." Chen Jing loosened his fist suddenly, and the strength in his heart was also released.
Ming Chen knew what he was thinking at a glance, shook his head, and pretended to be profound: "No, you don't understand." ”
"Humph! Really when I'm stupid? You say that hard work will be rewarded, but the truth is that hard work will be in vain. Chen Jing gritted his teeth and said.
"This statement is true or false, not right or wrong." Ming Chen looked him in the eye and continued, "This sentence is false to you, but you want it to be true. ”
“......”
Chen Jing didn't refute, and acquiesced.
After thinking about it for a long time, Chen Jing took the initiative to ask, "What do you think?" ”
Faced with such a question, Ming Chen did not avoid it, but thought for a while and replied seriously: "First of all, I don't think they exist in opposition. ”
"Secondly, I don't think talent is constant."
"In the end, I think there is a direction for the effort."
Chen Jing was very puzzled when he heard this, but he didn't interrupt Ming Chen, but secretly thought about the meaning of these words.
Ming Chen only paused slightly, and began to explain slowly: "People who preach that talent is everything secretly work harder than anyone else. ”
glanced at Chen Jing casually, seeing that his scalp was numb, and there was no room for refutation at all.
"If you compare talent to the end, then hard work is the scenery along the way."
"What if there is no end?" Chen Jing asked excitedly.
"The possibilities are endless." Ming Chen smiled confidently.
"Isn't it impossible?"
Chen Jing's face became a little ugly, obviously, reality made him fall too hard.
Ming Chen was quite calm: "This is the second point I want to say, everything in the world, nothing is eternal, even the heavens and the earth are changing, not to mention the talent." ”
"Since it can change, it can change from high to low, from low to high, so why can't it change from nothing to being?"
Chen Jing's breathing began to grow rapid.
He didn't know why, but he felt it made sense.
Yes, nothing lasts forever.
Seeing that he still wanted to say, he interrupted directly: "I think about the third one." ”
Ming Chen was stunned, but still agreed.
"Good!"
Although he was seven or eight meters away from Young Master Yuan, he still listened to most of it without deliberately lowering his voice.
However, Young Master Yuan didn't have the idea of interrupting, in his opinion, Ming Chen seemed to have a point, but only people with little insight would believe that a rich and noble family like him, who had read the books of sages since childhood, would not be easily swayed by others.
The little follower is secretly vigilant in his heart, this Mingchen has something, and cold-faced people can handle it, the enemy of life.
Ah Biao's expression didn't change, as if he hadn't heard it, but there was something more in his eyes.
The other two brothers ran out to find water to drink, and not far away, there was a small stream nearby, and they could also solve life events by the way.
Time passed quietly, and he waited until it was dark, and the immortal chief did not return.
All afternoon, Chen Jing was meditating, and Ming Chen ran out to pick some wild fruits to satisfy his hunger.
As soon as it was dark, the bonfire was lit, and the orange light reflected the red of the fire.
As soon as night falls, it is pitch black, but fortunately the trees are sparse and there are countless stars overhead.
"How do you feel cold?"
Mingchen's muttering made the others concentrate.
He did it on purpose, because he was bored just now and tested the next trend to avoid evil, and found that it became dangerous!
But you can't remind them directly, for fear that they will be suspicious.
I could only stand up and stretch: "I'll go and make it easier." ”
With that, head in a safe direction.
When he left, he pretended to accidentally kick Chen Jing and pulled him back from meditation.
I patted Zhao Zhong on the shoulder again before it was convenient.
In fact, the danger is not as serious as imagined, and it will basically turn the danger into a disaster.
But the gentleman doesn't stand a dangerous wall, he knows that something will happen here, and he stays here, and it's not a horror movie, so you don't have to go.
Everyone just met in Pingshui, Mingchen thought that he had done what he should do, and he couldn't be blamed if something happened.
In a few moments, he had disappeared into the darkness.
After a few more moments, a howl was heard in the distance.
Immediately after, there was the sound of several people shouting for help.
"Immortal Chief!!
Ming Chen could hear it clearly, it was Zhao Yi and Young Master Yuan's little followers, and these two people shouted the loudest.
Approach cautiously and try not to make a sound.
At the campfire, a black shadow scurried around the firelight, and for a while it was impossible to see what it looked like.
From a distance, Chen Jing was still sitting under the tree and did not move, and he thought he was asleep if he didn't know.
The two brothers, Zhao Zhong and Zhao Yi, hid behind a big tree, revealing only a pair of eyes.
"Young master, did the immortal chief forget about us!" The little attendant stopped in front of Young Master Yuan tremblingly, not daring to escape, and his legs trembled in fright.
"Ah Biao!"
Young Master Yuan was also frightened, and ordered Ah Biao to rush ahead and stop the monster.
The burly Ah Biao had a solemn face, took out a burning wooden stick from the bonfire, used it as self-defense, and leaned over slowly.
Suddenly, the black shadow was stunned and pounced on the fire stick in Ah Biao's hand.
Only then did everyone see its face clearly.
It was a strangely rotting face, covered with long black hair, red eyes, a large mouth that opened to develop a foul smell, and four fangs that were intimidating.
On all fours, he stood taller than two meters, his arms were thick and long, and he was covered with black hair like steel needles, like a black gorilla.
"Devils!"
Apparently someone recognized it, it was Chen Jing.
Ah Biao hurriedly leaned back, took advantage of the situation and rolled a gourd, and dodged the ghost's attack with embarrassment and difficulty.
"Boom!"
After being dodged by Ah Biao, the ghost spirit threw itself directly into the fire, splashing the fire in all directions.
This ferocious gesture frightened several people to retreat one after another, and the little follower's pants began to seep water.
"An adult ghost can grow up to five meters, and its strength is around that of a third-order demon beast." Chen Jing is no exception, when he sees the incoming things, he gets up and runs.
"This is only a first-order strength, but it's not something we can deal with."
"The best thing to do is to hide in the water, because ghosts are afraid of water." Chen Jing explained as he ran, and as soon as he finished speaking, the person was gone.
They were followed by Zhao Zhong and Zhao Yi, not to mention, Zhao Yi's physical strength was better than Zhao Zhong's.
The little follower couldn't care about anything else, so he turned over and ran.
Only Young Master Yuan, who was watching from afar, and Ah Biao, who had just stood up, were left at the scene.
"Ah Biao, can you kill it?"
Before Ah Biao could respond, the ghost ray pounced again, this time even more fierce and faster than the last time.
But Ah Biao, who had been prepared for a long time, threw himself to the side, and while dodging the ghost, he grinned: "Don't worry, young master, I have seen through its actions." ”
After speaking, he pulled out a dagger from his heel, and the cold light was dazzling.
No one thought that Ah Biao actually wanted to fight back.
Even Ming Chen, who was hiding from a distance and watching, was stunned, this servant was so fierce?
Do you have the skills to be a servant?
This time, it was obvious to see that the ghost was angry.
"Roar!"
The deep end of the sound was mixed with a piercing scream.
Suddenly, the roar was accompanied by a strong wind, which blew so that Ah Biao couldn't open his eyes.
At this moment, he felt a black shadow attacking, Ah Biao opened his eyes with difficulty, and the dagger in his hand jumped dexterously.
Bang!
When he saw it clearly, Ah Biao had already been smashed by a ghost like a cannonball, hitting a big tree and shaking for a while, and blood was flowing from the corners of his mouth, obviously he had suffered internal injuries this time.
On the other hand, the ghost did have a few scratches on its chest, but there was no blood flowing out.
"Are you alright?" Young Master Yuan asked nervously.
It's not that I care about Ah Biao, but I'm thinking about whether to run away.
"Don't worry, you can't die!"
Ah Biao stood up with his chest covered and faced the ghost, and he didn't lose a single ounce in momentum.
At this time, the dagger was still in his hand, and although it was missing, Ah Biao didn't care.
Instead, he raised the dagger horizontally, and at this moment the dagger actually glowed with a shallow white light, if it weren't for Ming Chen, he would have thought it was a moonlight blessing.
"Ahem!"
Just as Ah Biao covered his chest and coughed, Ghost Xiao opened his big mouth and jumped over.
It was too late, it was too soon, and when the ghost was about to die, only a deafening voice was heard.
"Bold and evil, dare to hurt people?"
