Chapter 98: The Darkness of the Stars and the Moon (12)
The blood-red dawn controls the spread of darkness but does not find the source of darkness, the stars of light reach the corners of the soul but do not drive away the torrent of sorrow, the shadow of death obscures the stubbornness of the will, slaughters the new life in the whirlpool of desire, the contest of fire and water pollutes the purity of the soul and accepts judgment in the pastoral of redemption, the trap of matter besieges the sublimation of the spirit, the light of justice becomes humble, the nightmare of chaos tears apart the color of reality, and the complete memory becomes fragmented. The length of time and the width of space disturb life, so that it has to fight not only with the outside world, but also with its own heart, the laws of nature restrict the spirit of the universe, so that all things can enjoy various rights while also fulfilling their obligations, all chaos seems to break the balance, in fact, it is only a shadow of existence.
"Farmer, last night our sheep were attacked by wolves, and the sheep in the sheepfold were killed and wounded, and we have suffered very heavy losses this time!" said one of the servants, running into the house, breathless.
"I had been talking to these guests late into the night last night, and I had not noticed any movement outside, and I blame my negligence for the consequences of such a serious one!" said the shepherd, holding his chin in his hand, with a chagrin.
"Farmer, we had planned to leave before dawn today, but your sheep were attacked by wolves because of our arrival, and I really think it's all our fault. Monarch Mu Zizhen lowered his head and said apologetically.
"The responsibility cannot be put on your heads, the wolf attack on the sheep is not something we can expect, you don't have to blame yourself too much, you should continue on your way as soon as the morning dawns!" said the shepherd, waving his hand, comfortingly.
"We must kill all those hateful wolves before leaving, they will come back now and again, and your losses will increase by then. The soldiers raised their fists and said enthusiastically.
"That's fine, let's ride our horses tonight for a real wolf-horse fight, drive all those wolves to the abyss of death, and restore peace to our grasslands. The shepherd took the hand of the monarch Mu Zizhen and said emotionally.
The night sinks into the abyss of dreams as if it can never wake up, when the shadow of the battle turns the beautiful fireworks into a light smoke, the pain seems to return from the edge of the edge to the highest point, hatred slides into the dead corner of consciousness as if it can no longer control itself, when the palm of sin throws the banner of justice to the ground, indifference seems to be mixed with laziness and forgets the original bravery, misery falls into the crevice of despair as if every day is gray, when the weeping eyes dye the happy face with a sad look, doom always seems to come to the moment when the dawn is just about to burn。 Happiness is stripped of the dark side of the soul and loses its comfortable appearance, and the comfort and sorrow of thought feel the existence of nothingness at the moment of death, and the nothingness reflects the magnificence of the appearance to the depth of the idea, bringing out an absurd reality. After the success of the first raid of the wolves on the grassland, they began to plan the second attack, they gathered at the top of the mountain in the middle of the night and kept observing the movements below, the sheep in the sheepfold were vigilant because of the fatal injuries, they curled up together to form a copper wall to resist the invasion of the mortal enemy, the monarch Mu Zizhen led the soldiers and shepherds to ride horses and galloped to the surrounding of the sheepfold, as long as the wolf swore to step into the sheepfold, they would take the most violent blow, no matter how many sheep and horses were killed and wounded, the wolf could not succeed again。
As the wolf howl sounded over and over again in the open grassland, the wolves rushed down the reef like a huge wave, and soon they jumped over the fence and scattered the flocks of sheep, the wolves launched the bloodiest bite and fight in the sheepfold, they choked the throat and limbs of the sheep and kept shaking their heads, until the blood spurted out of the veins and splashed onto the fur and the ground, the shepherd beckoned the monarch Mu Zizhen and his party to attack The time had come, they drove their horses into the sheepfold to block the retreat of the wolves, and the trapped wolves bit the fence and ran out desperately, only to see one after another black shadows galloping on the grassland like a ghostly portrait, Shepherd and monarch Mu Zizhen and his party held a sword to slash the fleeing wolves, the wolf dodged to the back of the horse and gnawed its hind hooves and tail, the shepherd threw a sword and stabbed the wolf's eyes, and another wolf jumped up and bit the soldier's legs, the soldier brandished a sword to cut off the wolf's ears, and a wolf was sandwiched between the monarch Mu Zizhen and the general's horses, the wolf showed a vicious look as if it was going to die with them, the monarch Mu Zizhen stabbed at the wolf's heart, the general pulled the reins of the horse and stepped on the hooves, so the wolves were chased by the shepherd and the monarch Mu Zizhen and his partyThe shepherd said that we only need to drive the wolves out of the grassland without having to kill them all, the monarch Mu Zizhen knows that although the wolves and sheep are incompatible, they are also indispensable, and it should be a natural choice rather than a human choice to let them fight each other......
The flame of light rises from the end of the night to the world of day, and it has gone through several painful transformations, when the silence of nature and the hustle and bustle of humanity collide violently, whether the brilliance of reason can eliminate sensual prejudices and achieve harmony between inside and outside, when the best is conceived from the end of extreme evil and then supports the body of the great shore, after several arduous run-ins, when the sharp sword pierces the fortress of emotion and obtains the song of triumph, when the warm embrace can stop the wind and snow and wraps hope tightly, when fraternity finds the power of salvation from the fire of hatred, it has passed the test of death several times, when the wreath of wisdom is set on the ladder built by ignorance, whether the stars and moon in the distance can illuminate the night and guide the way to climb. Sadness can't make up for the gap in the soul, it will only pull joy into a darker abyss, joy can't fill the despair of the flesh, it will only create joy and turn the coldness into nothing, indulgence can't change the law of time, it will only destroy the order and make the rules chaotic, order can't bind the balance of space, it will only affect cause and effect and make it difficult for love and hate to coexist. Shepherd and monarch Mu Zizhen and his party expelled the remnants of the wolves from the grassland and returned to the house, the shepherd's wife waited at the door to watch their triumphant return to greet them, she let her children from the house bring out oil tea and barley to entertain these heroes, monarch Mu Zizhen and his party enjoyed the food and wine but their hearts have been concerned about the safety of the victims, they finished eating and drinking and prepared to leave the grassland to continue to embark on a distant journey, the monarch Mu Zizhen and his party hugged the shepherd's family one by one and waved goodbye to them, at this time, the light flame was completely withdrawn from the center of the darkness and hung in the sky, the gorgeous Xia Dan color through the clouds in the season of birds and flowers condensed into a splash of ink painting......
