When he walked out of Donglinfang, Zhong Zhengyuan saw that Chen Changsheng was constantly drinking, and he didn't know how much wine was in the gourd, as if he couldn't finish drinking.

In fact, he was also a little puzzled in his heart, the so-called red dust refining heart, I think it is like this, it is always not so wishy-washy.

"It's hard to tell the truth from the fake......"

Zhong Zhengyuan shook his head and sighed, he followed behind Chen Changsheng and walked into the distance.

The sky was dark, and when the last light had dissipated, the moon appeared in the sky, the misty clouds fell into view, and everything around seemed to be quiet.

Walk to a mountain temple.

The fire in front of him was burning violently, and the firewood in it crackled, and sparks came out from time to time.

Chen Changsheng added some firewood to it, quietly looking at the flickering candle flame, and didn't know what he was thinking.

Zhong Zhengyuan said: "Mr. Chen seems to have been silent a lot since he came out of Donglinfang. ”

Chen Changsheng raised his head and said, "I just think it's a little ridiculous." ”

Zhong Zhengyuan said: "It's all ridiculous, I know it's a falsehood, but I sink into it, in the final analysis, I'm just lying to myself, but now the result is quite satisfying." ”

Chen Changsheng added another piece of wood to the fire, he took a sip of wine, and said: "How many consummation things are there in this world, in fact, if you really want to talk about it, it is not good to be really consummated, and only if you are a little lacking in everything can you persevere." ”

Zhong Zhengyuan said: "Mr. Chen understands, so why bother to be sad. ”

Chen Changsheng looked at him and said bluntly.

"It's just not a pleasure."

If it is a false dream, it is more like a big dream.

The dreamer knows that it is a dream, but he does not want to wake up.

As the poem says.

In my dream, I didn't know that I was a guest, and I was greedy for joy.

But no matter how unhappy you are, where can you go without being happy, what makes Chen Changsheng feel unhappy is this sad world, and it is this broken thing that makes people unable to distinguish between good and evil.

Maybe he forgot it after a night, or maybe he took a few sips of Qiuyue Brew, and by the fire in front of him, he forgot it in the blink of an eye.

……

The mist overflowed from the forest, and the fire in the temple had long been extinguished, except for a little white smoke floating outside the temple, blending with the fog in the mountains and hiding in it.

The two gentlemen went out of the temple and walked among the mist.

Zhong Zhengyuan said: "The fog in the morning is a bit dazzling. ”

"It's a blur, but isn't the path on the soles of your feet always there?" Chen Changsheng said.

Zhong Zhengyuan paused for a moment and said with a smile: "What Mr. said is very true, isn't this Hongchen Avenue the road under your feet?" ”

Before the fog, all I saw was the road on the soles of my feet.

Even if you don't know the direction, as long as you go forward, you are walking on the red dust road.

Zhong Zhengyuan felt more and more that this gentleman was a wonderful person.

I was trapped by things last night, but after a night, I don't seem to remember, as I was as kind and funny as I was at the beginning, not trapped by everything, and there should be a road ahead.

By midday, the fog was lifting.

The two of them walked all the way forward, and everywhere they saw was a bleak scene.

The door of the wine shop on the official road was hidden, and the door was overgrown with weeds, and when I looked inside, I saw that it was already dusty, and it seemed to have been abandoned for a long time.

The fields reclaimed in the distance were desolate, and they had been abandoned for a long time, and they had walked for more than ten miles, but there were no people.

This world is so chaotic!

At a glance, I saw that there were four or five houses in the small village outside the square, and when I entered, I found that the place had long been emptied, and the things inside were messy, as if someone had smashed them.

"It's all empty here......" Zhong Zhengyuan said.

Chen Changsheng said: "In troubled times, bandits are rampant, I'm afraid it's a disaster here." ”

Zhong Zhengyuan raised his hand, and three copper coins fell into the palm of his hand, and he shook it and glanced at the hexagram.

"Mr. Chen is right to the point."

Zhong Zhengyuan said: "There is a Tengxing Mountain not far away, there is a group of robbers entrenched in the mountain, coupled with the war in recent years, the government has no spare time to take care of these things, this gang of robbers is becoming more and more rampant, sometimes even breaking into the village to loot money, over time, there is no one living in this vicinity, so that the fields are deserted." ”

Chen Changsheng said: "Maybe you and I will be targeted if we go further." ”

Zhong Zhengyuan thought for a moment and said, "What are Mr. Chen's plans?" ”

Chen Changsheng thought for a moment and said, "That depends on how bold they are. ”

Zhong Zhengyuan smiled knowingly and said, "Yes, yes." ”

The two of them walked forward.

The road ahead is relatively narrow, with mountains and forests on both sides, which is a road carved out between the two mountains, and the dense forests are very suitable for Tibetans.

Behind a certain tree in the middle of the mountain forest, a pair of eyes looked at the two people walking slowly on the road.

One of them looked poor and sour, and the other looked like a rich man in a green shirt, but in fact, this one in a green shirt was the one with the most moneyless.

"Second master, do you want to stop them?"

"Who will pass from this without a little silver?"

Chen Changsheng and the others were walking.

Suddenly there was movement in the mountains and forests on both sides.

"Stop!"

Chen Changsheng raised his eyes and saw two strong men holding long knives suddenly appear in the mountains and forests on the left, and the same was true for the mountains and forests on the right.

The roads in front and behind are blocked.

Chen Changsheng and Zhong Zhengyuan glanced at each other, as expected.

"Zheng."

Four bright knives were aimed at the two of them.

The corners of the leader's mouth hooked up a sinister smile, and said: "My four brothers are waiting here to buy and sell, but unfortunately the two of them hit the road and offended. ”

Chen Changsheng asked: "A few heroes, Chen forgot to bring silver taels when he went out, and now he has no silver on him." ”

"No money?"

Qiao Lao Er frowned, he stepped forward with his knife, put it directly on Chen Changsheng's neck, and said, "Do you have silver now?" ”

Zhong Zhengyuan glanced at the robber, and couldn't help but think in his heart: It's not good for you to fight anyone, but go to fight Mr. Chen.

He looked at Qiao Lao Er with a little pity in his eyes.

"If a good man doesn't believe it, he will be searched." Chen Changsheng said.

Qiao Lao Er held Chen Changsheng on his feet, and then motioned for his subordinates to come and search his body.

Chen Changsheng also cooperated, and raised his hand to let him search it clean.

The fierce man searched Chen Changsheng's whole body, but in the end he only found a penny.

"Didn't you say you didn't have any money! What is it! ”

The long knife was on Chen Changsheng's neck, and the strong man pinched the penny and questioned Chen Changsheng, as if he was about to cut him.

Chen Changsheng said calmly: "Maybe Chen forgot about it, besides, it's just a penny, isn't it almost the same with or without." ”

"Less nonsense!"

Qiao Lao Er frowned, he saw that this person was so calm, and he was a little uncertain in his heart for a while.

And there is one of these passers-by who is not afraid when he sees a robber.

This man could be so calm.

Qiao Lao Er immediately turned his head to look at Zhong Zhengyuan on the side, and said, "Search him again." ”

Zhong Zhengyuan cast a trick and hid the money bag.

This is the tea money he paid along the way, how could he be willing to fall into the hands of this group of robbers.
