After several tugging, the city lord and Li Yu finally couldn't help but say, "I actually want to thank you today, if you hadn't had a conflict with that group of people, and they took the lead in attacking you, I wouldn't have an excuse to clean them up and give them a dismount." ”

Li Yu smiled, "Master actually told me, and you will thank me for this." ”

Seeing that Li Yu finally showed his words, the city lord hurriedly answered and asked, "Oh? So what did your master say? ”

Li Yu said, "Master didn't actually say anything, just said that you actually don't like them very much, but they haven't touched the bottom line of Tianmen Town these days, so you are also putting up with it." ”

After hearing this, the city lord groaned slightly, but he still couldn't help but ask, "Then, do you know what role your master played in this matter?" ”

Li Yu was puzzled and asked, "Do you think my master needs to play any role?" ”

"I don't mean anything else, it's just that your master has never taken the usual path, I'm afraid that he has a plan and won't tell me, what to do if he traps me." The last sentence was a little complaining, Li Yu didn't hear it, and asked the city lord instead, "I know that my master is sometimes eclectic, but do you think that when he was in Tianmen Town, did he cause you any trouble?" ”

After hearing this, the city lord did not hesitate much, and continued, "I said so, but I always feel a little uneasy in my heart. ”

Li Yu thought for a moment and then said, "City Lord, I can't say whether the master has other plans, after all, I am a disciple, and he is my master, so there is no reason for the disciple to ask the master what he wants to do." I can only say that Master has always been for the good of Tianmen Town, and for this reason, even if he wants to do something, I think it has his reasons, and you should support him, right? ”

These words are reasonable, neither humble nor arrogant, and the city lord can't criticize him after hearing it, indeed, out of his status as the city lord, he should take care of the people of Tianmen Town, the so-called government in his position is so, but if he is not just the city lord!

Thinking of this, the city lord could only smile helplessly in his heart.

Seeing that he couldn't ask anything, the city lord had to talk to Li Yu a few more words, so he gave Li Yu a thank you gift and sent him back.

Because Zhou Ce had handled the matter almost well, he bowed to the city lord with Li Yu.

On the way, Zhou Ce asked Li Yu where to go, Li Yu looked at the sky and found that it was almost time for lunch, so he said, "I'm going to buy some food and go back, what about you, Brother Zhou?" ”

Zhou Ce said, "Then I'll go with you, I don't have anything to eat at home." ”

The two of them were a little bored walking on the road, and they were a little embarrassed to say nothing, so Li Yu had nothing to say and said, "Brother Zhou, where is your hometown?" ”

Zhou Ce didn't expect Li Yu to ask him this question today, when they got along in the past, most of the time they were talking about what happened in Tianmen Town, or what they learned from the school, and very rarely they would talk about the past of Li Yu and Zhou Ce.

In fact, Shen Xun told the two of them separately in private that the other party's past was very hard, both of them were abandoned by their families, exiled, and came to live in Tianmen Town by chance, so, out of respect for both parties, they tacitly did not talk about each other's past, only talked about future ideals and current life.

Hearing Li Yu ask this coldly, he was still a little surprised, "I don't know the specifics, I only know that I lived in a small courtyard when I was a child, and I rarely went out, and then Uncle Zhang came and brought me back to Tianmen Town." ”

Li Yu nodded, and there was nothing to say for a while, Zhou Ce continued to ask him, "What about you?" Do you have anyone else in your family? ”

Li Yuyun said lightly, "No, I was also picked up by the master." If it weren't for Master, I would have died a long time ago. ”

When Zhou Ce heard him say this, he suddenly felt that Li Yu was only twelve years old, three years younger than him, and sometimes when he saw others falling in love with each other, he was inevitably bitter in his heart, not to mention Li Yu! He stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, expressing comfort, and said, "We can live in Tianmen Town now, so it can be seen that God is still good to us, what do you say!" ”

After hearing this, Li Yu smiled and said, "That's right, God still has room for us." But, Brother Zhou, do you know that your family is still alive? ”

This question is a bit direct, and there is also a hint of probe.

Zhou Ce couldn't help but feel interested, "Why do you ask that?" ”

"Intuition, didn't you ask me if there were other people in my family? If you ask, you should be sure that you still have family on earth. ”

Zhou Ce didn't expect Li Yu to be so sensitive, he could even feel the slightest detail, he replied, "I know there are still people, but I don't know where they are now." ”

"And if they do, will you go with them? Or rather, will you forgive them? Li Yu asked.

Zhou Ce had only talked to Shen Xun about this issue a little before, or a few years ago, when he went to Shen's house for dinner after school, he watched the scene of the Shen family's people loving each other, and he couldn't help but be envious in his heart, and later when Shen Xun comforted him, he talked about this issue shallowly, at that time he complained a little about his relatives, so his answer was a little fierce, "Why should I forgive, it was they who gave up on me in the first place, why did they want me to go back when they wanted me, don't I have the right to choose?" They didn't care about me for so many years, they took me away if they wanted me, in that case, why did they give up on me in the first place. ”

But now that things have changed, if he had withdrawn himself from that environment at that time, his answer should not have been like this. Later, he also thought about what he would choose if there was such a day, but nothing came to him, and he couldn't make a choice. However, Li Yu asked him like this today, which gave him a time when he had to make a choice, "I think, I will still go back." If there is such a day, I can't get along with myself! ”

After speaking, he asked Li Yu again, "Do you think I'm a philistine?" ”

Li Yu was puzzled and asked, "Why do I think you are a philistine?" ”

"Because I easily let go of the fact that they abandoned me, and chose to forgive the past and leave with them."

Li Yu smiled, "I don't think you're a philistine, and I don't think you've done anything wrong." Although I don't like to learn the truth in the book, I also know one thing, it's very difficult for you to live alone in Tianmen Town. If there is a choice that can make your life better, you can have the warmth of your family, then choosing to forgive the past is actually to let go of the pain and resentment in your heart, so that you no longer suffer from the past, it is human nature for you to do this, why can't you make yourself better! ”

After listening to this, Zhou Ce concluded, "So, do you mean that as long as it is a choice that makes you feel better, you can do it?" ”

Li Yu nodded and continued, "I think so." But there is another point, which my grandmother told me before, when you make yourself feel better, don't hurt others. That's the bottom line. ”

After hearing this, Zhou Ce asked, "But what if there is a conflict between the two?" Do you want to perfect yourself or others? ”

Li Yu also asked his grandmother this question, and he still remembers that his grandmother hugged him, touched his head, and said, "Xiao Yu'er can ask Grandma this question, then let me ask you, if your life can only be saved by one person in the village and the village, who will you choose?" ”

Li Yu said without thinking at the time, "Of course it's Grandma." ”

"Then if your life can only be chosen to save Grandma and the whole village, who will you choose?" Grandma continued.

Li Yu still said without thinking, "Of course, it's still Grandma." ”

Grandma smiled lovingly and continued to ask, "Then if Xiaoyu'er has a person who is very good to you, and your life can only choose between saving him and Grandma, how do you choose?" ”

Grandma asked Li Yu like this, but Li Yu was asked, because he remembered his grandfather, the person who also gave him warmth, if there was such a choice, he really didn't know how to choose.

Grandma saw that he didn't answer, as if she was struggling with it, she touched his head and explained, "Don't worry about Xiaoyuer, there is no best answer to this question itself, because each of us has the most important person in our hearts, and we have a shot that seems to be fair, but there is really no fairness at all. ”

Li Yu continued to ask, "But how should I choose?" ”

Grandma said, "Why don't you ask if the other party needs it?" Choosing whether to succeed or not is a matter for both parties, if the other party doesn't want it, you give it back to him, wouldn't it be against his own will. ”

"But what if they want both?"

Grandma seemed to think of something, and said with some sadness, "People who are really good to you, people who are worthy of you to give up your life to save, will not put their safety at risk and value everything they have more than you." ”

Later, Li Yu often thought about this problem, and found that his grandmother only talked about one aspect, that is, who is more important in his heart, and who is worthy of your good to the other party, but in reality, the choices to be faced will be much more complicated, such as the feelings of family and country, life and death, and even the future of the whole world, which cannot be measured by the name of his heart.

But that's for later.

At this time, Li Yu heard Zhou Ce's question, combined with his grandmother's answer, and said, "People who are worthy of your fulfillment will not make you embarrassed." And the people who will make you embarrassed, we don't need to fulfill each other. ”

I have to say that in this regard, Zhou Ce and Li Yu are actually very similar, they are both egoists in their bones, which may also be related to their past, only what they can grasp is their own, and there are very few that they can take to heart.

But those who can be taken to their hearts will be treated with all their sincerity.
