139 feet feet on the earth, red dust refining the heart
Chen Jie, who left Yuanfang Driving School, was like entering a wonderful state, thinking less, asking less, seeing more, walking more, measuring the earth with his feet, observing the world with his eyes, and understanding life with his heart.
With two legs constantly stepping, Chen Jue carried a backpack on his back, strolled through the high-rise buildings and noisy streets of the northern capital, walked into the crowd of tens of millions of people, and looked at the faces of strangers.
The busy vegetable vendors in the farmers' market, the housewives who get up early in the morning to go out to buy vegetables, the students who are laughing and playing to school with their school bags, the construction workers who are covered in dust and are starting to work, the sanitation aunts who sweep the fallen leaves on the roadside with a broom, the urban white-collar workers who hurriedly grab breakfast and run to check in, the two busy couples in the breakfast shop, and the express delivery and takeaway guys who ride electric cars and hurry through the streets.
Chen Jue is using his own celestial and human induction to comprehend the appearance of all beings in the long red dust.
Instead of going to the high-speed rail station to take the bus back to Wenzhou, he walked all the way to the south, from the bustling urban agglomeration of the northern capital to the suburbs of the northern capital, which was gradually sparsely populated.
At noon, when you are hungry, you go to a roadside restaurant to eat ramen and rice bowls, and when you feel thirsty while walking, you buy a bottle of energy drink to replenish your energy.
The autumn sun does not feel hot on the body, the cool breeze is slight, the pores are dilated, and there are yellowish fallen leaves floating at the feet, and the mountains in the distance are lush, the blue sky and white clouds, and the birds are singing.
Chen Jue found that no matter where he went, he could see the traces of people.
Along the way, you can see the small owner of the roadside store sitting boredly in the shop, the urban families who come out for an outing are playing happily on the suburban lawn, the old suburban farmers who are turning over the rice are waving their plows, occasionally wiping the sweat stains on their foreheads with the handkerchief hanging around their necks, and the truck drivers who are delivering daily necessities to the big city of Beidu in the suburban logistics park, as well as one after another large trucks that never stop traveling through the roads leading to various places in Beidu.
That is the appearance of all living beings, and it is also the appearance of each of you and me in the long red dust.
As the so-called moving is always there, in the moment of enlightenment.
After Chen Jue heard that old song, he suddenly realized that the so-called touching he had been pursuing before was hidden in the seemingly ordinary life in the past.
When he came to his senses, he found that he had unconsciously walked more than 200 kilometers, from the northern capital to the neighboring Cangzhou.
After the previous experience of hiking the old forest of Gongshan Mountain, Chen Jue found that he did not feel tired at all after walking more than 200 kilometers that day, but felt very fulfilled.
took out his mobile phone and looked at it, and found that it was already more than 9 o'clock at night, and from 6 o'clock in the morning to now, he walked for 13 hours, and glanced at the apology message sent by Cheng Wei in WeChat.
This roommate was only concerned about reuniting with his ex-girlfriend at that time, and was carried away by love, so he directly threw Chen Jie, a good roommate, aside, and when he came back to his senses, he found that Chen Du had run away.
Chen Jue looked at the news and smiled slightly, typed back a ridiculous sentence: "Warmly celebrate Wei Dog's departure from the group of single dogs!" Then he put away his mobile phone and found a hotel to live in the noisy streets of Cangzhou.
After a day of hiking, he gained a lot, although he has not really understood his own way of cultivation, but he gradually understands where his own touch is hidden.
After taking a hot shower in the bathroom of the hotel, washing off the dust accumulated on his body for a day, and then went downstairs to find a roadside shop to eat a meal of donkey meat and two pieces of Cangzhou shortbread, Chen Jue went back to the hotel to sleep and rest.
……
I slept very well this night, got up the next day in good spirits, left the room, walked around the streets of Cangzhou with a backpack, and ate a meal of cornmeal steamed buns, fried dough sticks, and lamb intestine soup for breakfast.
I'm used to eating the light taste of the south, and it's also very good to taste the taste of the north once in a while.
took out his mobile phone and took a ride, and after half an hour, Chen Jue came to the outside of the large courtyard of a villa in the suburbs of Cangzhou.
At this time, it was still in the morning, and there was a burst of humming and exhaling in the courtyard, and Chen Jue pricked up his ears to listen, it was that Master Li Xiang who was practicing in the courtyard in the morning.
knocked on the big iron gate in the courtyard, and the iron door was opened from the inside, and I saw Li Xiang wearing a black practice uniform, looking at Chen Du with a surprised face and saying, "Master Chen Jie!" What are you doing here? ”
Li Xiang
A little curious, the news that Chen Jue won the first place in the big competition had spread all over the circles of martial artists yesterday, although he left the arena early and came back, but he also heard a little.
After all, Li Xiang, as the leader of the 10th Great Competition, is already difficult to find opponents all over the world, and he was suddenly defeated by a young man who came out of nowhere, so he was naturally impressed by Chen Duel.
It's just that when he saw Chen Jue again after a few days, Li Xiang found that the young man in front of him was no longer as confused as before, nor was he as dusty as before, floating like an immortal, but a different person, like a flesh-and-blood person, giving people a sense of closeness without the slightest sense of distance.
This feeling is extremely subtle, if it weren't for Li Xiang's martial arts boxing technique to practice to the point of strength, and his rich life experience, he really couldn't see the slightest change before and after Chen Jue.
"I just happened to pass by Cangzhou, and I wanted to visit Master Li Xiang!"
"Are you welcome?" Chen Jue smiled slightly.
"Of course welcome!"
"Having friends from afar?"
"Master Chen Jie, please come in!" Li Xiang laughed, opened the iron door, and invited Chen Jue into the villa compound.
The courtyard is a four-story country house, the yard ground is paved with cement, the yard is placed with swords, guns, swords and halberds and other eighteen kinds of weapons, as well as a row of wooden poles red tassel spears and large iron guns, there are several stone locks on the ground, stone burdens, and modern fitness dumbbells, barbells.
There are no messy hangings and pennants, just simple and simple practice venues.
In addition, there is a large open-air swimming pool behind the compound, which is full of water, which is obviously used by Li Xiang for underwater exercises.
Next to the courtyard wall, there is also a flower garden planted with all kinds of bright flowers, plants, melons and fruits, which are well maintained.
"What a great place to practice!"
"No wonder Master Li Xiang, your martial arts are so strong!"
"Such a cultivation treasure land, no one bothered it, it is very pure, even I am a little envious when I see it." Chen Jue looked at the environment of the courtyard and said.
Being praised by Chen Jue like this, Li Xiang smiled and said: "My daughter-in-law helped clean it up, and she has also taught some rich students who have come here over the years, and she has made a little money, and her life is barely passable." ”
took Chen Jue into the living room of the villa, put down the backpack, and Li Xiang went to the tea table in the living room to make tea.
Chen Jue stood and looked at the wall in the living room, with many photos of family outings and children's awards hanging on it, full of fun in life.
In Chen Jie's eyes, perhaps only such a practice environment close to life can breed a simple and heroic Sect Master like Li Xiang.
Today's guaranteed first is more!
Yesterday I should have blown a cold, and I was dizzy when I took a nap in the afternoon, and the code word was not in the state.
