Chapter 411: Fame is shocking
Chen Xi decided to stay and listen to the story before leaving, because he found that it was not a story that could be told in a few words. And the bitter nineteen, the people in this story tell the story, with a color that makes people want to listen to the story in its entirety. The people in the story tell the story, and what could be better than that?
Kujiu sat on the sand pile and watched the sand flowing down his feet. Sometimes he couldn't figure out why there were so many of the same words when he described sand and water, and when sand flowed, it seemed to have a rhythm that was more beautiful than water.
"You interrupted me and said it wasn't a good story. I didn't go on because it really wasn't a good story. ”
Ku Nineteen glanced at Chen Xi, and this time he really glanced at it. He deliberately maintained the action of looking at people, which was once just a kind of reluctance, a kind of reminiscence, and a kind of struggle. Now he was glad that he had maintained many of these habits, which had allowed him to get used to life with eyes again.
He said: "In the past, the criterion for judging the quality of a story was whether it would make people laugh. After I have a pair of eyes today, a story about me can finally be a good story. But the person in my story is always vague. I am as grateful to him as I am to my parents for giving me life, but I don't know what he looks like or why he does this to me. Until one day I learned the truth and I began to hate him, but I still foolishly continued my promise not to tell anyone about him. This person has such a charm, even if you hate him, but you can't betray him lightly. ”
Ku Jiu lowered his head, grabbed a handful of sand and held it tightly, and then the sand finally flowed out of the gap between his hands, and he couldn't hold it.
"They called him the head, and I didn't know what it meant at the time, I thought it was his name. All I know is that he lives in our tribe and enjoys his people's offerings every day. He lives in a special tent, especially because there is not a single cow or sheep to be found within a radius of several hundred meters. Later I learned that he never ate beef and mutton, and he didn't like the smell of beef and sheep. Since you don't like cattle and sheep, why did you come to Beiban?"
Kujiu couldn't figure it out, so he was even more curious about this person. But he didn't have access to that guy because he was a slave of slaves. Every day he is suffering brutal torture, and it is his greatest blessing to survive every day. Until one day a lamb ran to the tent, and the slave owner of Kujiu Nineteen was frightened, and whipped Ku Nineteen several times, so that Ku Nineteen went with him to catch the lamb. Kujiu could hear it in the slave's voice, and he was in awe of the man who lived in the tent.
Ku Nineteen is a blind man, groping to catch sheep.
Then he heard a warm voice: "You come in, I have something to ask you." ”
The slave master of the Bitter Nineteen was startled, and asked in a trembling voice, "Sage, did you let me in?"
The voice came again, "No, I told the little blind man to come in." ”
It was still so generous, but the slave listened to it with a sense of happiness like the rest of his life. Then Kujiu groped his way into that tent, and from that day on, his life changed dramatically. The moment he walked into the tent, Kujiu had no idea what was going to happen, and he was completely unaware that he was going to face someone who would affect him for the rest of his life. If he had a choice, Ku Jiu thought about it again and again, and he found that even if he was a slave for a lifetime, he didn't want that day's events to happen.
"What's your name?"
The people in the tent asked Ku Nineteen, who tilted his head slightly to feel the direction of the sound, and then humbly and politely bowed. He even slapped his clothes before entering, although the slapping had no effect on his clothes. His clothes can pollute a river when left in the water.
"I don't have a name, maybe I have, but I don't remember. I gave myself a name called bitterness, and I hope that I will get used to it by screaming. ”
At that time, Ku Nineteen was only five or six years old, and he was able to answer such a thing not because he was precocious, but because he had experienced a lot.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. ”
At that time, the man said such six words, and Ku Nineteen didn't know why he said such six words. It's a pity, I'm sorry, what is he sorry for? At that time, Kujiu was very curious, so he asked why. And the answer given by that person was the reason why Ku Nineteen would rather continue to be a slave than meet that person himself after thinking about it carefully.
"Because the way you are now, it's all because of me. Because of what happened to your family, it's also because of me. ”
This man replied in a calm tone like the water of the Immortal River, where are there any regrets and apologies?
"Because of my coming, your uncle will kill your mother, and will catch you and gouge out your eyes. Because of my arrival, your tribe has changed so much. I didn't ask your uncle to do it, but because I came, he felt he had the strength to do it. In fact, however, I won't do anything for him. But it just happened, and I wasn't going to help him, but I gave him a lot of confidence, so he did it, and he succeeded. ”
The man's tone remained calm: "So I said I'm sorry, but this matter has nothing to do with me. ”
Ku Jiu said these words in that person's tone, so even Chen Xi could hear the coldness and ruthlessness in them. Later, Chen Xi thought about it carefully, it was not cold and ruthless, it was an attitude towards the world. This person seems to have only two attitudes in his heart, one is none of my business, and the other is my business. So no matter how tragic the experience of Kujiu is, it belongs to the category that is none of my business.
Chen Xi patted Ku Nineteen's shoulder, and Ku Nineteen smiled and said that he was fine: "Actually, what he said makes sense, he just came to borrow from our Northern Barbarian Tribe." He must have been very old, though his voice didn't sound old. And he must have traveled a lot, as if looking for some answer. Only people who have experienced too many things can have such a calm vicissitudes in their voices. This feeling of vicissitudes is the feeling that my story has nothing to do with this world, and he doesn't seem to be alone."
Ku Jiu didn't know whether he was right or not, reasonable or unreasonable, and this was already the most suitable word he could find. Ku Nineteen had not read any books, and all the things in the books he knew were told to him by that man. Maybe the man was also stuffy and bored living in a tent, so from that day on, he often let Kujiu go. Although Ku Nineteen hated this person very much in his heart, he couldn't resist the temptation.
Ku 19 said: "Thinking about it later, it was a coincidence. My uncle received this man and was amazed. So he served this man as he served his ancestors, thinking that this man could help him. And this person just happened to need to live in the Northern Barbarian Tribe, but the uncle thought that this person had agreed to help him. That's why my uncle had the courage to start a rebellion with his army, and in fact, my uncle's army was one-fifth of my mother's army. But because no one thought and habitually feared, he succeeded. ”
Ku 19 said: "This is the will of heaven, so my hatred for this person is also a little unfounded, what does it have to do with him?
The expression on his face was a little distorted, for he didn't know what he thought of it.
"Later, he taught me some methods of soul power every day, and I was not stupid, and I was not slow to learn. Later, he sued me that if you want to live, you can only rely on yourself and not on others. He said that he helped me only because he pitied me, but the pity of others was always just a luxury, and it became a habit to be pitied, and a person was abolished. He threw me a bow and a pot of feathered arrows, and told me that he was blind too, but if he said his name now, the whole world would be shaken. Therefore there is nothing to be blind in the eye, and not to be blind in the heart. ”
Ku Nineteen Dao: "From that day on, I practiced like crazy. He said that this is cultivation, even if I don't have the slightest strength in cultivation, but he insists that this is cultivation. He said that his men practiced an even stranger way, and that his men had no body but souls, so they were ethereal and powerful. I asked him why he wanted to gather such a group of people, and he said that for the sake of the past and for the future. ”
Ku Nineteen looked at Chen Xi: "I don't understand, I don't understand a word." What do you mean by the past and the future?"
Chen Xi shook his head: "You don't understand, how can I understand?"
Fuji asked curiously: "He said that if he said his name, the whole world would be shaken." So you didn't ask him what his name was?"
Ku Jiu said: "I asked, but he didn't even pay attention to me." Later, I didn't give up, because I was close to him, so I asked from time to time. I didn't ask again until one time when he said something to me very calmly. ”
Fuji asked, "What did he say?"
Ku Jiu was silent for a while, and then learned the tone of the person and said, "There are many people in the world who want to know my name, but there are very few people who are qualified to know my name. Don't ask in the future, because you don't deserve it, because you don't qualify. The moment I say my name it shocks the world, but when I say my name to you, you think it's just a name, so it doesn't make sense. ”
Ku Jiu smiled and was a little distracted: "In his eyes, I am an ant, and I don't deserve to know his name." ”
Fuji'er clenched his fists: "What an arrogant person!"
"No!"
Ku 19 retorted: "He is not arrogant, he has never been arrogant." He's the kind of person who doesn't doubt that even if he says he's God. Because he has that kind of temperament, even if I can't see his appearance, I still feel very clearly that he doesn't need to be arrogant, because he is really powerful. When he is so powerful that he is invincible in the world, then what he says or does is not arrogant. ”
"Invincible?"
Chen Xi was slightly stunned: "Is it really the national teacher? Could it be that the crow is really the national teacher's creation? Could it be that my previous speculations are all wrong?"
Teng'er said: "Perhaps, human cultivators, especially within Da Chu. Who else can give people that feeling invincible but the national teacher? But what exactly does this person want, and why do I always think he is more like a madman?"
Chen Xi shook his head: "I don't know, maybe only the national teacher himself knows." ”
