Chapter 240: The Scholar's Business
Isolated island by the sea.
"Nothing is necessarily right."
Le Chaotian sat in the night on the edge of the lonely island, turning over the fish in his hand while plucking some sesame seeds from the plate next to him and scattering them on it.
The fish that has been processed and marinated in garlic sauce is grilled and fragrant.
Not far away, Lu Xiaosan and Songguo were holding swords and cutting green peppers, red peppers, green onions, and ginger leaves.
Cao Weiying sat by the fire, not looking at the sea or watching the play, but seriously looking at the fish on the fire, and there was a flat stone slab burning on the fire beside it.
"Yes."
The young man in green clothes didn't know if his mind was really on what Le Chaotian said, but at least he nodded sincerely when he answered, and then looked at the plates beside Le Chaotian, and said with a smile: "It shouldn't be wrong to sprinkle some more cumin." ”
Le Chaotian raised his eyebrows, picked up the brush and brushed some oil cumin, and then said with a smile: "The taste that the predecessors like is generally not wrong." ”
Cao Weiying smiled slightly: "There are naturally people in the world who don't like to eat cumin." ”
Le Chaotian also likes cumin, so he said with a sigh: "How can there be anyone in the world who doesn't like to eat cumin?" ”
Cao thought for Hotaru and said, "Maybe they're afraid that they won't be able to eat well." ”
Le Chaotian looked up into the distance and said softly, "That's indeed true." So I think cumin is acceptable, and I think they are all acceptable, but some people think it's not okay. So this kind of thing, in fact, is the same as liking cumin or not, it is difficult to distinguish right from wrong. ”
Le Chaotian lowered his head and turned the fish on the fire over again.
"The East China Sea was shattered, and many people died, I heard that before the East China Sea Sword Sect left, it wanted to drive away some people from the world in the East China Sea, but they didn't listen, thinking that it was trying to kill them - because in the affairs of the demon clan, the East China Sea is the most peaceful place. So maybe he was killed by the sword intent, so maybe he was crushed to death by the toppled mountains. If the predecessors don't make a move, I can feel it from that sword, from the East China Sea to the Western Luming, this area that occupies almost one-third of the human world that can survive, will be destroyed in that sword. Relatively speaking, the sword I received when I sincerely wanted to watch the play was a trivial matter. ”
"So some people got right." Le Chaotian chuckled softly.
"Behold, what dangerous people they are."
"Of course, they are indeed very dangerous people, but if the fireworks are placed in a shady corner, they will not spit fireworks into the sky."
"I just like to be round but not round, if it is not full, some people are more thorough, they want to see a waning moon."
"In the end, it became my no."
Cao Weiying smiled slightly and looked at this one side of the grilled fish, while babbling about the thirteen stacks of Taoist cultivation, and handed over the wine gourd in his hand.
"You look aggrieved."
"Of course I was wronged. Predecessor. Le Chaotian picked up the wine gourd and sprinkled some wine on the grilled fish. I just want to watch a play, but I almost became an old waste like my unlucky master, how can I not be wronged? ”
Although this young-looking Taoist said that it was a trivial matter to take that sword.
But people who often say this want to get solace from others - that's not a small thing, you're almost dead.
So one sentence poked the nest of tears, crying like a child, and the more he spoke, the more aggrieved he became.
The most sincere and tear-jerking thing in the world is naturally always understanding.
Although Le Chaotian didn't cry, when he sprinkled some wine on the grilled fish and raised his head to take a sip, Cao Weiying still saw his somewhat reddened eyes.
So when Lu Xiaosan and Songguo ran over with those cut seasonings and side dishes with a smile, they looked at this gentle young man with red eyes and a distinct sense of brokenness very strangely.
"Uncle Shi, what's wrong with you?"
Because Le Chaotian was a genius who was stabbed at the beginning, Lu Xiaosan didn't say anything about whether it was a dog urinating into his eyes, but carefully put the things on those plates aside, looked at Le Chaotian and asked very gently.
Such a gentle little boy subconsciously glanced at the pine cones on the side.
Le Chaotian put down the wine gourd with a slight smile, and turned the grilled fish in his hand over for the last time, the big fish that was cut open has been roasted to the fullest aroma, in terms of aroma, roast duck is naturally far inferior to grilled fish.
"Nothing." Le Chaotian pointed to the wine gourd on the ground. "The senior's wine is too strong, and I choked on it."
Lu Xiaosan naturally didn't believe it, so he picked up the wine gourd and tried it, and then coughed violently.
"Ah, it's really strong."
The pine cone on the side also picked up the wine gourd and tried it, and then looked at Lu Xiaosan who was dancing on the side with a strange expression, is the wine of the predecessor of the Sword Immortal very strong?
From the perspective of common sense, the average naughty person will sometimes be more aware of the world.
Know that there are things that can be seen through, but not broken.
So just when Songguo was about to question it, the little boy's buttocks arched, and he squeezed Songguo away, almost falling and eating shit.
"Hasn't the fish been grilled yet?"
Lu Xiaosan looked at the big fish that he personally went to the sea to pick up as if nothing had happened, and the little boy didn't know the sea fish, so he didn't know what kind of fish it was, so he also gave a person who also didn't know the sea fish a logical reason not to write his name, in short, it was a big fish.
"Alright."
Le Chaotian said with a smile, and put the fish on the hot and oily stone slab on the side.
"Put the red and green peppers on it and fry it for a while. Stop, stop, don't put chopped green onions so early. ”
"Oh."
Lu Xiaosan kindly put the green onion in his hand back on the plate.
Songguo clenched his fists on the side for a long time, and finally looked at the fish that was about to be grilled, and finally swallowed this breath, planning to settle accounts with Lu Xiaosan in the future.
After Le Chaotian slowly added bean sprouts, garlic, green onions, and ginger leaves to the fish on the slate, today's grilled fish with all the colors and flavors was completed.
Lu Xiaosan stood there with emotion, looking at Le Chaotian who took out a pair of chopsticks from his sleeve and tried the fish.
"Why can you eat spicy and pungent food when you're injured?"
The little boy is still angry about the fact that they ate hot pot back then, he ate hot pot base, and he didn't eat clear soup pot.
Le Chaotian's tongue seemed to be curling, making a shasa sound, probably scalded by the freshly grilled fish, and it took a while to find three pairs of chopsticks from his sleeve and hand them to the three of them.
"You can eat it now, haven't you already seen the mountain?"
Lu Xiaosan just lamented: "The spicy pot that I missed, I can't make up for it if I eat a hundred more meals in the future." ”
Le Chaotian laughed.
The four of them gathered around the night bonfire and began to feast.
is the grass for the firefly, and they are all very eager to grab the meat on the belly of the fish with Lu Xiaosan to eat, which makes the little boy speechless.
As a senior, there is no predecessor at all, what kind of system is it?
After being full of wine and food, Lu Xiaosan checked Le Chaotian's wound again and made sure that there was no major problem, so he ran back to the pavilion and fell asleep in the corner.
The pine cone fell asleep by the fire.
Le Chaotian finally took on the responsibility of his uncle and disposed of the leftover wreckage, after all, it was not good to be shy and let the grass clean up for Firefly.
This mountain and river observer coughed softly while standing on the seashore blowing the sea breeze, looking at the distant sea.
"Actually, I have a question."
Le Chaotian said softly.
Cao Wei Hotaru sat there drinking the wine in the wine gourd, and said very calmly, "What's the problem? ”
"If the predecessor didn't stop that sword, wouldn't Kamigawa be destroying himself?"
Cao Weiying said calmly, "Because I can't stop that sword." ”
Le Chaotian raised his eyebrows, he didn't know what he remembered, he looked at Donghai again, and looked at it for a long time before he said softly: "Since he knew that such a sword would be stopped, why did he use such a sword?" ”
The young man in green clothes by the sea just drank the wine and said softly, "How do I know? ”
Le Chaotian turned his head to look at the young man.
"Are the seniors really ignorant or false?"
The grass is very sincere.
"I really don't know, I'm not as boring as you, and I want to read the story ahead all day long. As the saying goes, ask me where I go, you know it yourself, you know it very well, don't you? ”
This Bodhisattva barbarian, Le Chaotian once played and sang on the way to the East China Sea, and this Taoist said with a soft smile: "We are not as calm and relaxed as our predecessors. ”
"You are a Taoist who doesn't know that Qingjing is the right thing in the world?"
"The younger generation naturally knows that it is only pursued at that time rather than existing, and it is natural to contradict the world by talking about the world with saints." Le Chaotian whispered, raised his head, and looked up at the night sky. "In fact, when everything is turned to ourselves, we will see that the root cause of the chaos in the world is actually in itself."
"It's like the stupid things that my two unsuccessful disciples did. The world thinks that the demon clan is too frightened, so why don't they? ”
Cao Weiying just laughed softly, and he had a noncommittal attitude towards everything in the world.
......
The prime minister stood quietly on top of the small building in the Spring Garden, sometimes looking south, sometimes looking north.
The fog in the south obscured all vision, and even a huge barrier of divine light was raised tonight, because there was an emperor in the north who used a sword that was very good and bad in the world.
So the stars in the north all fell, scattered in the four fields, and in the sky, it was pitch black, and there was nothing.
Yun Hu didn't know that he was holding a pot of wine, and ran through those red plum forests with a sigh.
"You know I'm busy, and you always ask me to buy wine, is that like that?"
Yun Hu didn't know how ruthlessly he complained about this drunkard scholar who stood in the night of the small building and pretended to be presentable.
"Cong Xin borrowed my flying immortal, I was too lazy to walk, I didn't let you go, as the so-called one day as a teacher and a father for life, I have been a gentleman for you for so many years, how many lifetimes do you have to be a son for me to pay off? There are so many words to buy a drink, I don't know, I found that after you started practicing, it swelled a little. ”
“.......”
Yun Hu didn't know how helplessly he looked at the lonely old man with a helpless expression on the side of the building.
It's just that after taking the pot of wine and taking two sips, Qing Xiang sighed very satisfied.
Yun Hu looked up at the sky.
In fact, the whole world is looking at the sky tonight.
The world can't see things too far, so they can only look overhead.
Those sword lights come and go, crisscrossing the stars and fields, and it is naturally impossible not to be seen by the world.
"Are they really going to fight to the death?"
The two swords in heaven are so strong that the world can tell who they are at a glance.
The prime minister didn't speak, just leaned against the guardrail and quietly watched the world.
Yun Hu didn't know that he hadn't received an answer for a long time, and looked at the prime minister on the side.
"What are you thinking?"
Qing Xiang said without looking back: "I'm wondering if Nanyi City should be reversed." ”
Yun Hu looked at this white-clothed scholar in surprise, although this old boy rarely had serious times, but obviously, such a sentence did not seem like a joke.
"Why?"
Qing Xiang said very calmly: "It's very simple, Cong Blade can't win against Shenhe, if Cong Blade dies, the Human Sword Sect will naturally turn against His Majesty." If the Human Sword Sect is reversed, we will naturally follow suit. Huai will not give us a chance to discern. ”
Yun Hu was silent, and after a long time, he said softly: "Yes, the Hanging Xue Courtyard has been friends with the Human Sword Sect for thousands of years, and the south has been separated again, and the world has no reason to believe in our position anymore. ”
The prime minister raised his eyebrows and said, "Why should the world believe our position? ”
Yun Hu looked at the scholar beside him in a daze.
The scholar drank wine and said very calmly: "You have lived too short, so naturally you don't know that I am a friend in the world, and I only have a friend of Cong Blade." ”
Therefore, the position of the Hanging Yuan is naturally unbelievable.
Yun Hu didn't know why he finally knew why Prime Minister sometimes looked at the northern sky, and sometimes looked at Daze in the south.
This white-clothed scholar is not looking at Daze, but at the human armor in Daze and Nanyi City.
Yun Hu didn't know that his whole body began to tremble, and cold sweat kept breaking out on his back, and it took a long time before he said softly: "Master Qing wants to ....."
Qing Xiang took a big sip of wine and said calmly: "Yes, if Cong Blade comes back alive, then I will bring a quilt and lie at the gate of the Human Sword Sect and scold the street for a year, if Cong Blade dies, I will open the south gate of Huai'an." ”
The white-clothed scholar didn't know why, but he laughed.
"Of course, Nanyi City has a reason, the southern armor has been stationed outside Nanyi City for so long, even if Nanyi City is extremely rich, if you want to support the entire southern army, it will still be overwhelmed after all, so it is understandable that some rebellions will occur."
Yun Hu was silent for a while, and said softly, "How could they rebel?" ”
Qing Xiang said calmly: "If you go and look down the student registers of the various academies, you will know why they rebelled. ”
Yun Hu stood there in a daze.
"The Hanging Xue Courtyard is in the north, although it is not as good as in Huangliang, and it controls many lifelines, but we have been friends with the Human Sword Sect for thousands of years, and naturally we have left a lot of our things in Huai'an. The bombing of the camp is actually just a very simple matter, which is a chain reaction guessed by the Institute of Mathematics and Science in the lack of a particle. ”
Yun Hu looked at the extremely calm Qing Xiang silently, sighed, and said softly: "Do you really want to do this?" ”
The prime minister looked calmly to the north.
When those blades fell to the world with Kamigawa's sword intent, some of the stories were already clear.
"Why don't you go and ask that Your Majesty in the North, do you really want to hold the arm bone of the Qing Master?"
Yun Hu didn't know why such a story happened in the East China Sea in the world, and looked at the north with a complicated expression.
"So the arm bones of the young master were stolen by Kamigawa?"
Qing Xiang said lightly: "It doesn't matter who stole it, the important thing is that it is now in Kamigawa's hands." It doesn't matter if such a thing appears in the hands of you and me, but it is a dangerous thing to appear in the hands of Kamigawa. ”
Yun Hu didn't know how to say softly, "He's too tall." ”
"Yes, he's too tall, but not tall enough, and if he falls short in the end, who knows what kind of madman he's going to become?"
The prime minister said calmly and drank calmly.
"I don't want that. It is the long-cherished wish of Mr. to live in the world with culture, but sometimes if we have no choice, we can only do something against our ancestors. It's like a sorghum hanging garden. ”
Having said that, the prime minister is naturally clear.
Huai'an is not a yellow sorghum, and Huaidu is not a fake capital.
Kamigawa is not a separation.
Yun Hu didn't know that he suddenly wanted to drink.
So the young scholar stretched out his hand to the thousand-year-old scholar.
Qing Xiang glanced at Yun Hu obliquely.
"What are you doing?"
Yun Hu said frankly: "Give me a bite." ”
The prime minister reluctantly handed over the wine jug in his hand.
The scholar took a sip of wine, and he regretted that he bought strong liquor for the prime minister at that time, so he choked with red ears and red ears, and it took a long time to calm down.
The prime minister scolded and snatched back the flask.
"You'd better have a table with the dogs. You can't even drink this kind of wine, and when the time comes, when the method of distillation is perfected by the Institute of Mathematics and Physics, those wines will not be sent to you directly? ”
Yun Hu didn't care about Qingxiang's ridicule, he just held on to the railing and stroked his chest, and after a long time, he sighed a little drunken and said, "I thought that what was written in the book was really the world." ”
The prime minister was also happy.
"How can it be that what is written in the book is human? If I were to write a book, I wouldn't write about my drunken scolding of the streets, and even if I did, I would write it as a merry man, not an old drunkard who looked messy. People in the world sometimes slander the face of the girl who walks away by the lamp on the riverbank with too thick makeup, but in fact, they don't know that what falls in the text is the best and most gorgeous whitewash. ”
"If not a word of the text can be trusted, then sir."
The scholar, who was a little drunk, looked at his teacher.
"What is the meaning of the world of culture?"
Qing Xiang looked at his most proud disciple, took a sip of wine, and laughed softly.
"Aren't you the proof of the world of culture?"
Yun Hu stood there in a daze.
Prime Minister turned his head away.
"It is impossible to write the real world in the book, and the world of culture is not to tell the world what is right, but to tell the world how to look at the contradictions in the world. Books are dead, but the instinct to learn is alive. ”
"It's like when it's raining, so people can't just think about it's raining, but why it's raining. Will the sea and the sky flip, or will the heat condense? ”
"The responsibility of a scholar should be a brave person in the world."
"But this spirit of independence, the thought of freedom, has been worshiped for thousands of years, and it has been with the world for a long time, with three lights and eternal light."
Yun Hu was stunned for a long time, and then bowed piously to the white-clothed scholar.
"Students are taught."
