Chapter 62: Cutting Off the Red Dust
In the bedroom of Murong Mansion, Ling Shuangyue finally stood up and said softly: "It's okay, my aunt's health is very poor, and I was angry just now, so I fainted." I've already used Buddha power to help her groom her body, and I'm sure she'll wake up soon. ”
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Mu Zibai hugged his fists and said, "Thank you, Senior Sister Shuangyue." ”
Ling Shuangyue said: "Senior Brother Mu doesn't have to be polite, it's okay if Aunt is fine." ”
"Bai'er... Bai'er ......"
There was a faint cry on the bed, but Murong had already woken up, and seeing that she had something to say, Xue Qianxun hurriedly helped her up and put a pillow on her.
"Thank you, Snow Maiden, yesterday's words were impulsive, please don't be surprised. ”
Murong's eyes were weak but sincere, which made Xue Qianxun also embarrassed for a while, and hurriedly said, "It's okay, aunt, I forgot." ”
"Good boy, how good it would be for my Bai'er to have you so obedient!"
She turned her head to look at Mu Zibai, and said in a trembling voice: "Bai'er, tell me, what do you want?"
Mu Zibai gritted his teeth, but he didn't dare to say what he thought in his heart, where did he dare to stimulate his mother at this time.
Murong took Mu Zibai's hand, tears were already flowing from his eyes, and he sobbed: "Since the day you were born, I have always thought about your good, when you were weak and sickly when you were a child, I ate fasting and recited Buddhism, studied Taoism, just for God to treat you more." ”
"As you grow older, you also follow me to learn Buddhist scriptures and Taoist scriptures, but what child doesn't learn Confucian classics and Confucian saints? ”
"I, the scholarly family of Murong Family, are all talented, and they are all erudite literati, if you don't learn Confucianism, you won't be able to get famous in the future, and you will miss your future. You said that you like Buddhist scriptures and Taoist scriptures, and begged me to let you read these, but I was very embarrassed, and finally agreed. ”
She burst into tears, and her voice trembled: "For this reason, your father and I quarrel every day, saying that I have harmed your future, and I admit it, I am all to satisfy you and make you happy." ”
"You don't like to touch these relatives and family things, how can you inherit the family business in the future? But you don't want to, you don't like it, and I agree. ”
"Bai'er, you have grown up since you were a child, no matter how big or small, which one of your mothers does not satisfy you? The outside world says that the eldest lady of the Murong family is a mourning star and has harmed the single inheritance of the Murong family, but tell me, what point is sorry for you for your mother!"
"I don't care if I bear the infamy, but Bai'er, you can't let the Murong family be ruined! Thousands of things, my mother has chosen to compromise, and I have promised you, just get married, can't you take a step back?"
In the end, Murong couldn't cry anymore.
Ye Qingfeng and Bai Wuwu glanced at each other and slowly exited the room, they really didn't want to hear this kind of thing.
It's not for other reasons, it's just that I don't want to touch this sad topic.
"Drink! Get the wine out!"
Ye Qingfeng roared.
Bai Wuwu's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly took out the wine, and said excitedly: "Brother Qingfeng, this is the first time you have taken the initiative to shout for drinking, this time Lao Bai I don't cheat people, it is guaranteed to be good wine, not some strange deer whip, tiger whip or anything......"
Before he finished speaking, Ye Qingfeng picked up the wine jug and poured a few sips, choking and his face turned red.
"Heroic!"
Bai Wuwu hurriedly took a few sips, and said excitedly: "Brother Qingfeng, if you don't drink it, you want to get drunk when you drink it." ”
Ye Qingfeng smiled and said, "Lao Bai, sometimes I think that people are different. You say Mu Shi, both parents are good, and they are good to him, but he has his own pursuits, always thinking about cutting off the red dust. ”
"This is his choice, we naturally don't need to say anything, but I'm thinking, if I can resurrect my parents, don't say anything about martial arts cultivation, and let me become a waste person immediately, I am willing. ”
As he spoke, he took a few more sips.
Bai Wuwu smiled and said: "Everyone has their own life, don't force it, you at least know who your parents are, you have seen your parents, and you have been cared for by them." I don't know who my parents are, let alone anything else. ”
He picked up the flask, poured it violently, and then shook his head and said, "Let everything go with the flow, you and I are both laymen, haha." ”
"Yes! ”
Ye Qingfeng said: "I don't have such lofty ambitions, if I want to pursue the ethereal Heavenly Dao, I just want to do my own thing and enjoy humanity." ”
Bai Wuwu suddenly laughed out loud: "Hahahaha! Brother Qingfeng, we have to have a toast for this sentence, you are so right! Lao Bai, I don't have any other pursuits, I will ask for a wife in the future, have a bunch of children, and enjoy the joy of family, as for the parents, alas... After so many years, I don't dare to hope for it. ”
Ye Qingfeng also smiled: "Me too, marry a wife, have a child, and experience the warmth of family affection and the preciousness of love." ”
The two of them looked at each other, looked into the room at the same time, and laughed lewdly at the same time.
In the room, Old Man Murong sighed and said, "Alas, Bai'er, you really disappointed your father!"
Murong couldn't cry anymore, lying on the bed and crying silently.
Ling Shuangyue couldn't look at it, and hurriedly said softly: "Auntie, your current body can't withstand too many mood swings, so it's better to have a good rest." ”
"Miss Ling, how can I rest in peace? I... Ahem......"
Xue Qianxun gently patted Murong Clan's back, turned his head and said, "Mu Shi, you go out first, your aunt here won't be able to rest at all." ”
Mu Zibai gritted his teeth, bowed deeply, and finally walked out of the room.
Seeing that the sky was sunny, he felt surprisingly cold, so he also walked to Ye Qingfeng's side, picked up the wine jug and drank it.
"Yo! Mu Shishi, who doesn't stick to the wine, has drunk, and my wine jug must be kept as a souvenir!"
Bai Wuwu laughed out loud, his face already flushed with drunkenness.
The three of you take a sip and I take a sip, I don't know when I drank it, and there were still muffled cries in the room, occasionally Xue Qianxun and Ling Shuangyue's low comfort, and the sigh of Old Man Murong.
Mu Zibai spat out heavily, drank several more sips, gritted his teeth and said, "Senior Brother Ye, what do you say people live for?"
Ye Qingfeng was stunned for a long time before waving his hand and said: "Mu Shishi, don't ask such a profound question, I can't answer it, but I think everyone has a different meaning of life, and it is difficult to make a reference." ”
Mu Zibai said: "Then Senior Brother Ye, what is the meaning of your life?"
Ye Qingfeng thought for a while and said with a smile: "It used to be for revenge, but now it's not, now it's for inheritance and development." ”
"Inheriting the spirit of my father and mother, developing my own spirit, I don't have any big goals, but I hope that the world will be peaceful, all people will be stable, and every family can be happy. ”
"Why? Because I don't want my tragedy to happen to other children, I can't do that much, but I can do my part. ”
"Later, I became a parent and gave birth to a child, and I also educated my children in the same way. ”
"There is no meaning in life, life is life!"
Hearing this, Bai Wuwu also said: "Well said, those so-called meanings are not all the expressions given by your literati, where can we manage so much, live happily and comfortably, and occasionally do some good things, that's enough, hahahaha!"
Mu Zibai clenched the wine jug tightly and drank it again, choking and coughing.
He finally said: "I have loved Buddhist scriptures and Taoist scriptures since I was a child, and when I was nine years old, I made a lifelong desire to pursue the Great Dao, and I have never changed. ”
"Am I wrong that I stand firm in my ideals and give everything for them?"
"Senior Brother Ye, Senior Brother Bai, do you think I'm wrong? I've just been doing what I insist on doing, and I've been working hard for my ideals and pursuits, why do everyone give me the feeling that what I'm doing from beginning to end is wrong?"
He screamed, holding the flask and refusing to put it down.
Ye Qingfeng thought for a moment and said with a smile: "I think so, hiccup... It's not wrong what you're doing, isn't it just pursuing your own ideals, this ideal is not a bad thing, and the means of pursuing it are also legitimate, so you shouldn't say that you are wrong. ”
"But I thought about it, my uncle and aunt were not wrong, and finally gave birth to a boy, but this son did not seek fame or money, but wanted to become a monk, and he could not even become a relative. If you want to put it on me, then I can't stand it. ”
Bai Wuwu also said: "Yes, they are not wrong, I can completely understand their feelings." ”
Mu Zibai gritted his teeth and roared: "It's not that I'm wrong, it's not that they're wrong, so who is wrong?"
Ye Qingfeng and Bai Wuwu glanced at each other, but they couldn't find the answer, this kind of inexplicable question, who the knows the answer, who knows who to ask.
Ye Qingfeng waved his hand, took the wine jug and took a few sips, and said in a daze: "Hey, you want to cultivate, your parents want you to marry, you say you're right, and you think your parents are right, then in my opinion, there is only one possibility." ”
"What is possible?"
Ye Qingfeng said: "'Dao' is wrong. ”
"Well said!"
Bai Wuwu suddenly laughed and said: "Yes, if you don't have such a way, you won't be able to learn at all, if you can't learn, you won't run away from marriage, and you won't worship under the Great Jue Golden Immortal, let alone become what you are now." ”
Ye Qingfeng said: "Anyway, Mu Shi, you have to think so." There are four things in total, you, your uncle and aunt, marriage, and the Tao. One of these four things must be wrong, right? Which one do you think it is?"
Mu Zibai nodded, stood up, and looked at the sun in the sky.
He watched the sun go all the way down, watched the moon rise, watched the moon set again, and the sun rose again.
Bai Wuwu and Ye Qingfeng's wine had already woken up, and everyone had fallen asleep, seeing that they were still like this.
Ye Qingfeng finally couldn't help but say, "Mu Shishi, are you stupid?"
Mu Zibai turned around slowly, his eyes were extremely clear, and he said softly: "I understand." ”
Everyone was stunned, and Bai Wuwu said: "Have you understood?
Mu Zibai said lightly: "I'm right, the Tao is right, my parents are right, and my marriage is wrong." ”
He turned his head and walked directly towards the house, his tone was extremely cold, and said, "I want to cut off the red dust and seek the Tao wholeheartedly in the future." ”
