Chapter Forty-Eight: Jianghu Erlang Died for Righteousness!

The residence of the blind old man Lu is a thatched house, although it is not leaking everywhere, but it is also extremely shabby.

In Middle-earth, there are many chivalrous people, and there will naturally be no shortage of chivalrous things. The blind old man Lu was a famous young hero within a radius of a hundred miles, and he didn't know how many handsome and beautiful girls wanted to marry him, and he could be a wife and a concubine. And when he was young, he was also suave and suave, and he was among thousands of flowers, and not a single leaf touched his body.

As a chivalrous person, when doing chivalrous things, there will be risks, and if you become famous, you will become famous in the rivers and lakes; if you don't, you will be crippled or even die. Despite this, it is still impossible to stop the road of many young heroes, and the blind old Lu was more chivalrous than beautiful women and wine when he was young, so he is somewhat famous in the rivers and lakes within a radius of thousands of miles.

However, I often walk by the river, how can I not get my shoes wet, it depends on whether I will be unlucky to slide directly into the river and drown if I get wet. Fortunately, the blind old Lu has done a lot of good deeds and helped a lot of weak people after all, God may have opened his eyes, so that he was not drowned directly, but only half drowned.

That time he was in a town, and he saw someone directly robbing a private girl in broad daylight, he pulled out his sword without saying a word, who knew that this time he hit the iron plate, opposite was a descendant of a certain Huang Zi Gongqing of a certain dynasty, and there were a few middle and third-grade masters around him, and he directly poked the blind old Lu into the eyes, and then kicked his dantian to pieces.

At that time, he was the age of his first year. The dantian of the Jianghu monk was shattered, and the immortals of the Nine Rank Realm could not be saved. The blind old man also knew this, so he returned to his hometown in discouragement, and lived for decades under the guidance of everyone, and now he is over the age of six.

Half of the money spent on making a fire in the thirty years of his life was to feed the horses to the rich family in his hometown town, and half to rely on the help of his former friends, and at the beginning, there were many people who used to admire him to help him, visit him, and comfort him. Later, the shadows gradually became sparse, and the tea was cold, and those "confidantes" never came to see him once after he fell. But the blind old Lu doesn't care, how to live or how to live, it's still a little wine and meat once or twice a month, he feels very tasty!

After so many years of life baptism, he no longer has the high spirit and arrogance of the past, put away his impetuousness and injustice, abandoned the resentment and unwillingness of the year, and replaced it with satisfaction with reality and adaptation to the bland.

Occasionally, he would wake up from his dreams, and then wake up and laugh at himself in the dark: "I'm just a blind man and a wasted person, and I'm still a fart hero!"

On this day, two strangers came to the town, and after accidentally learning what happened to the blind old Lu, they bought some wine and meat to visit him.

A middle-aged man in cloth and a young man in Tsing Yi, the two claimed to be other people's names with the surname Yelu.

The middle-aged man in cloth was slightly half a step behind the young man in Tsing Yi, and asked as he walked: "Xiting, is this old man an old man or an elder?"

The young man shook his head and said, "No. is a senior in the rivers and lakes. ”

Yelu Zhongtian was slightly surprised when he heard this, and said, "Could it be that he is a hidden master of the rivers and lakes?"

In his opinion, the one who can be called a senior by the dignified prince of the West Pole Empire must be at the same level as his master, that is, the contemporary Buddha master of the West Pole Buddhism.

"It's not. I didn't know each other before, but this is the first time I've seen this senior. And not some hermit master. Yelu Xiting shook his head and said, "I just regard him as a senior in the rivers and lakes, not a master. Sometimes, if you cultivate high, you may not be able to become a senior, and sometimes if you cultivate low, you will not delay becoming a senior. ”

Yelu Xiting saw that Yelu Zhongtian was still a little puzzled, so he continued: "Brother Zhongtian, this way east, we have also seen a lot of chivalrous and righteous people, but we have seen more people in the rivers and lakes who are flies and dogs. In the western pole, there are few people who practice chivalry and righteousness, and there are many people who cause trouble. Since entering Middle-earth Shenzhou, in my opinion, there are more people who act chivalrous and righteous, and although there are many people who cause trouble, but because of the constraints of those chivalrous men who are worthy of their own hearts, the chivalry of the rivers and lakes here is heavier, but there are not many flies and dogs. ”

"But how can we judge whether this person is a good person or a bad person because of one thing?" Yelu Zhongtian frowned slightly, and continued: "I am also not confused now, although I am not proficient in human calculations, but I have also met many people who are good at human calculations, but among them, many of them do many good things and do many bad things. It would be inappropriate to say that they are good people. To say that they are bad people is also too one-sided. ”

"Good people make mistakes, and bad people do good things. This in itself is a contradiction, since a good person makes a mistake and causes serious consequences, can he still be a good person? If a bad person suddenly wakes up one day and puts down the butcher's knife, can he be called a bad person again? If that person as a whole is 'both a good person and a bad person', this obviously does not make sense, then it might as well not be judged from the fact that he has done something, whether it is done right, whether it is good or not, where is the right thing, where is the good thing, if it can be said to be fundamental, then the matter is really good. I never say how he is a person, but only how well he is done, whether he is doing well for others, and whether it is worth it for himself. Because there is a good deed does not mean that it is worthwhile, and it is often wrong to harm the individual to fulfill others, but it cannot be said to be wrong, as long as he is personally willing. But if you say that you want to fulfill yourself at the expense of others, then it is definitely not right. Because the hearts and minds of all people in the world are equal, there is no distinction between superior and inferior, and there may be differences in status, and there will be distinction between high and low, but if the person with a high status can really ignore the thoughts of a person with a low status? If he is really able, that person will often ignore others no matter what he does, exploit others in everything, harm others, and everything is bad. ”

It was the first time for Yelu Zhongtian to hear Yelu Xiting say so much in one breath, no matter whether what he said was right or wrong, he felt relieved in his heart, because this showed that Yelu Xiting had his own thinking ability and the ability to judge right and wrong.

He Yelu Zhongtian hadn't read a few books, if he had read them, he had read the cultivation exercises and the dozen or so military books that Yelu Xiting had given him. Therefore, he never reasoned at length, all the way Yelu Xiting was talking, he was listening, whether he understood it or not, he would smile and nod with satisfaction.

"A well-known Confucian psychologist has these sentences: 'There is no good and no disgusting body, and there are good and malicious movements. Knowing good and knowing evil is conscience, and going to evil for good is a thing', the important thing is to have good thoughts in your heart, and your heart is like grass and trees growing towards the sun is the root of goodness. Yelu Xiting continued: "Intentional kindness cannot be compared with unintentional kindness after all, so the heart is the most important, and doing good deeds against the heart is naturally a good thing, but it cannot truly enrich one's heart. That's why for me, cultivating the mind is the foundation of the path!"

"This ...... Did you realize it yourself?" Yelu Zhongtian was dumbfounded when he heard this, feeling a little unbelievable and a little familiar. After all, this little prince was almost raised by him, so he knew that this little prince was not the kind of young man who liked to read scriptures and books, and used piano, chess, calligraphy and painting to kill time.

"Ahem...... Naturally not, these are some of the words that the Great Sword Immortal said a hundred years ago before retiring. I memorized it by rote......" Yelu Xiting blushed a little, but it was more of a worship of the Great Sword Immortal.

"That great sword immortal with unparalleled strength, isn't it rumored that he was besieged and killed by the patriarchs of the three sects of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism because of his excessive killing?" Yelu Zhongtian remembered the rumor that the Great Sword Immortal suddenly disappeared back then, when he was not yet born, and his father heard about it when he was still very young.

"How is it possible?!That great sword immortal's strength has been the best in the world for thousands of years, and he can be said to have reached the pinnacle on the way of the sword, reaching the ultimate that can be achieved, and he is the founder of the Immortal Sword Gate. Yelu Xiting said calmly, but his eyes were full of yearning and fanaticism. It was this fanaticism for the rivers and lakes that made him tired of the temple calculations and the dispute between the princes in the palace. Or, he has never fought, otherwise he would still be able to jump in the palace every day with his few goods who are called brothers but are actually mortal enemies?

"Ahead was the old man's dwellings, like a hut. "Yelu Zhongtian is not very good at reading, but after all, he is a martial artist at the peak of the seventh grade, so his eyesight is excellent, and his perception is very keen, and he can see the thatched house that is very small but looks very delicate from a distance.

An old man was lying on a self-made chaise longue for a winter bath, with a small pot of cheap green wine next to him, and from time to time he leisurely raised the flask, took a sip slowly, and then smacked his lips with a satisfied face.

"May I ask Senior Lu?" asked Yelu Xiting.

"Yes. May I ask who the son is?" Although the blind old Lu couldn't see it, his ears were very bright, and he judged that Yelu Xiting was very young by listening to the voice.

"Senior Lu, the younger generation is a Jianghu person from another country, who does not do his job properly and travels the world. Passing by here this time, I heard about the deeds of Senior Lu, so I admired it and came to visit. Yelu Xiting said with respect, this is his sincere respect, because he feels that this kind of chivalrous warrior is worth it.

Back then, this senior Lu was not blind. But knowing that the other party was strong, knowing that he couldn't beat him, he still made a move.

The grasshopper shakes the tree, ridiculous and self-conscious?

No, it's the grasshopper shaking the tree, it's respectable!

"It's not a predecessor for a long time! How many years have passed, I've almost forgotten it. A long time ago, some people came to visit me, the most recent one was more than 20 years ago, and that old friend had an accident at home, and no one came!" said the blind old man with a smile.

"No! In my opinion, when the road is uneven, those who draw their swords and draw their swords are all chivalrous, all can be respected, and all are respectable people. Yelu Xiting said with a serious face, "Even if there are some people who only have a first-grade realm or even some people who have not cultivated, as long as they are chivalrous, I will drink a few pots of wine with him, talk about interesting things about the rivers and lakes, talk about the principles of life, and learn other strengths." At the very least, I have a lot of scruples in many cases, and I can't see the unevenness of the road, so I draw my sword against the enemy who is much stronger than me, and fight for my life. ”

"When the road is uneven, he pulls out a knife or something, that's all a youthful move, hahaha, now I think about it is really blurry, and the pictures in my memory have almost disappeared!"

"Senior Lu, I don't know if you have any regrets?" Yelu Zhongtian came from the battlefield, and he still didn't understand the behavior of this kind of chivalrous man.

"Brother Zhongtian, in fact, this is like you fighting bloodily on the battlefield, killing red eyes for those robes. Yelu Xiting whispered.

"This man is a man on the battlefield at first glance, this son is right, he was young at that time, and he was angry for a while, so he didn't think so much at all, and he just drew his sword to help the weak people in the rivers and lakes. The blind old man was silent for a moment, and said in a hoarse voice, "If it were now, I would still do that, I don't regret it, I don't regret it at all, I just feel ashamed...... I still didn't save the woman after all......"

"Senior Lu, where is the person who harmed you back then?" Yelu Xiting looked at the old man with a sad expression, and asked as soon as he opened his mouth.

"It's a son of another country. I won't mention the past anymore, I have been for so many years, except for not saving the woman that makes me unable to let go, all other honors and disgraces have been put down. The blind old man's face returned to normal, and he smiled calmly.

"But what is the current two-character king of the neighboring country?" Yelu Xiting inquired in the town, so he also knew about the situation back then.

"This son, don't be impulsive. On the other side is a prince, for an old blind man like me, it's not worth it. The blind old man smiled and said, "I thank you first for having this intention." I've gotten used to the blandness now, and I've long since lost this kind of mind! It's very rare for Childe to have this kind of mind, and it's very good, as long as I don't mess around, it's definitely not too difficult to become a fifth-grade or even sixth-grade monk. If I delay my son's future for my sake, I won't die blindly, because I killed her back then......"

"The old-timers have the heart of the heart, I, the junior, can't insult the rivers and lakes of our generation!" Yelu Xiting touched the sword on his waist and remembered the green shirt sword a hundred years ago.

When the blind old man Lu heard this, there was relief, worry, and admonition in his already blind eyes.

"If you encounter a wicked person, you have to think about it, how can you look at each other when you see injustice on the road? Raise your sword and express your grievances, and the children of the rivers and lakes will die for righteousness!" Yelu Xiting's eyes became brighter and brighter, and his sword intent increased violently, and his cultivation went further.

"What a 'Jianghu Erlang died for righteousness'!" The blind old man Lu stood up a little excitedly, "looking" at the young man in front of him, feeling as if he had seen the picture of himself laughing in the sky when he was young, and his heart was no longer silent.

"Today, let me Yelu Xiting Lu see the injustice and draw his sword to help once! A swordsman in the rivers and lakes who only fights with a sword in a green shirt once!" Yelu Xiting was arrogant, raised the long sword in his hand, and the sword qi blew his long hair.

The blind old man Lu didn't remember any imperial princes, didn't hear anything about the peak of the seven grades, and was only stimulated by the "swordsman of the rivers and lakes". Yelu Zhongtian looked at this junior he had seen since he was a child, and his face was also solemn.

The blind old Lu and Yelu Zhongtian felt a chivalrous aura of rivers and lakes enveloping their hearts at this time, and they only felt extremely happy!
