Chapter 3: The First Initiation
Although You Longzi's speech was a little vague, even incomplete, and a little ambiguous, Xu Yang still heard the difficulties even though he was young.
Xu Yang knew in his heart that he wanted an extraordinary life, and difficulties would come in groups.
Xu Yang doesn't have an invincible dream of being a strong man in his heart, he just wants to live an extraordinary life, this is his only requirement.
You Longzi kept silent, he hoped that Xu Yang could think about his own path, he knew very well in his heart that the future years would not be as comfortable as now, the only thing he could do now was to give Xu Yang a belief, one that would allow him to survive in the years to come, no matter what kind of things he encountered.
You Longzi looked at Xu Yang's immature little face, his eyes showed a little pity, he reached out and touched Xu Yang's little head, and said, "It's getting late, rest well, and the teacher will pick you up tomorrow morning." ”
Xu Yang said goodnight to the master, made a disciple salute, and respectfully watched the master leave.
The time was very fast, and the evening in early spring was still a little cold, Xu Yang was wearing a slightly thicker coat, sitting on the big stone lion outside the door, looking up at the sky.
The sparse starry sky looks a little desolate, and the half-crescent moon hangs in the sky, but it is not arched by the stars like in summer, and the few stars look quite lonely.
Tonight, although You Longzi didn't say much, and Xu Yang didn't understand much, he knew that there were many outstanding people in this world, and they competed with each other in order to win a prestigious name on the fairy road.
Xu Yang doesn't like to be known to the world, what he prefers is to walk his own way quietly in obscurity, he doesn't want to hope for anything, to be alive is the biggest and best wish in Xu Yang's heart.
"After tomorrow, my life will not be as quiet and comfortable as it is now, what will I be like in the future?" Xu Yang had a slight expectation in his heart.
Thinking of the sword saint that the master said, Xu Yangyao thought about what kind of character should this be, in order to calm the catastrophe of tens of thousands of years of the Eight Desolations, and make all the races in the world dare not act rashly.
Xu Yang was very envious of that person and longed for that kind of life, because he felt that kind of person was really powerful.
A cold wind blew, Xu Yang shivered, and looked at the dark world around him, Xu Yang knew that the night was really dark.
Xu Yang went back to the house and lay on the bed, but he couldn't sleep after tossing and turning, and when he thought of tomorrow, his heart was excited.
In the second half of the night, a light rain fell in the sky, and Xu Yang finally fell asleep with the sound of rain.
And so the night passed, and the day came.
Early in the morning, as soon as the sky was bright, Xu Yang had already opened the door, stood at the door, rubbed his eyes, stretched his waist, and then turned back to the room and went out to fetch water and wash with the basin.
When everything was ready, we headed for the main house.
He respectfully said Master outside the door, but no one answered, and he walked in the door only to find that Master was not in the room, but the meal had already been prepared on the table.
The food was steaming hot, Xu Yang unceremoniously picked up a big steamed bun, took a big bite, picked up the chopsticks and picked up some vegetables, then looked at the mouth to stuff, for a while, the little face was bulging, the young man's immature little face, white skin with a little tender red, bulging little face, at this time, it seems that it is also a little cute.
With Xu Yang's wind, the food on the table was eaten after a while, Xu Yang touched his bulging little belly, sat on the chair, and looked like he was being strung to death.
Xu Yang got up and walked out the door.
An early morning walk in the woods was pleasant, and the light rain of last night made the world feel as if it had been cleaned, everything was new, and there was still rain on the leaves.
A gust of wind blew, and Xu Yang was in a happy mood, smelling the fragrance of the grass in the soil, and his body was a little lighter.
A mist rose this morning, although the fog is not thick, but it fills the world with a bit of mystery, and the mountains and forests in the distance are faintly in the fog, but there is also a bit of beauty.
Xu Yang circled around the woods and returned to the house, at this time, You Longzi was already waiting for him in the room.
"As a teacher, I'll take you to a place now. After that, without waiting for Xu Yang to react, he took Xu Yang to the highest mountain nearby with his sleeves wrapped.
When Xu Yang reacted, he found that he was no longer in the same place, and a gust of wind blew, Xu Yang couldn't help but shiver, and couldn't help but blame himself for wearing more clothes.
"What do you think of this world?" asked You Longzi, looking into the distance.
"It's beautiful. Xu Yang was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said.
"Where's the beauty?"
Xu Yang stood on the top of the mountain, looked into the distance, and said his feelings.
"This white world gives people a mysterious color, and the mountains and forests in the distance are hidden in the fog, which is quite hazy and beautiful. ”
"You see, the sun is out. ”
Xu Yang looked at the horizon in the distance, the sun really appeared, the warm sunlight was scattered on the earth, and the white mist gradually dispersed, revealing the face of this world.
Xu Yang felt the warm sunshine shining on his body, the original cold had disappeared, and now he only felt comfortable.
"The sun dispels the cold of the world, but how to dispel the cold of people's hearts. You Longzi said in his heart.
"What do you think after the sun appears?"
"The sun is warm on the body, and the white mist has dissipated, and the green leaves are golden and beautiful in the sunlight. Xu Yang said what he saw in his eyes.
"But, Master, what I'm saying is superficial. ”
You Longzi was stunned when he heard this, but he was quite happy in his heart.
"Master, you said that although there is night in this world, you see, Master, when the sun comes out, it will dispel all the darkness and bring warmth, so I believe that there will be many good things in this world. ”
"Countless years ago, wasn't the world also dark, at that time, there was only war in the world, but the predecessor of the Sword Saint brought light to the world, he was like the sun in the sky, although it was small, but it was extremely warm. ”
"Just as there will be day and night in the world, although the night will make people feel fearful, but the day will drive out the darkness, so I believe that it is not the world that is dark, but the human heart. ”
Xu Yang's words made You Longzi very happy, and the joy in his eyes was even more undisguised, and then he sighed: "Yes, the dark is the human heart, you have such a view at a young age, it is really rare." ”
"Xu Yang, I hope you can have a better tomorrow, but I hope that you can protect yourself in the future and always let others go. ”
"Yes, disciple understands. Xu Yang nodded heavily.
"Don't talk about that, teach you to enter the Tao for the teacher, but the real entry into the Tao will be on your sixth birthday. ”
Xu Yang was overjoyed when he heard this.
"Xu Yang, do you know what the Tao is?"
Xu Yang thought for a while and said, "It should be the road!"
"It is indeed the road, but everyone's road is different, so the road is not the same, the teacher can only guide you in the direction, but the real road has to be walked by yourself. ”
"The disciple understands. ”
You Longzi looked at his young disciple, he was very happy in his heart, and he spoke with a little pleasure, "Look at the distance and see something." ”
Xu Yang fixed his eyes and looked into the distance, there were mountains and rivers, trees and flowers in the distance, "I saw the landscape, flowers and trees." ”
"Look closely. ”
Xu Yang looked at the distance, the green trees were in patches, the water waves were soaring, thousands of flowers were blooming, and the purple and red were blooming, and he said: "I saw it, bright red flowers, green forests, and blue water." ”
"Then you listen carefully, and what do you hear? ”
Xu Yang listened attentively, and there was the crisp cry of birds, the sound of the wind blowing through the woods, and some other sounds.
"Listen carefully, listen with your heart. ”
Xu Yang did as he was told, closed his eyes, and listened attentively, he heard more, there was the cry of a newborn baby, the chirping of young birds in the nest, the sound of grass breaking through the soil, he listened, and heard more sounds.
"What do you see, what do you hear, and what are these?"
What are the three, Xu Yang has to think more carefully
What are these things?
Xu Yang asked himself, and what he had just seen and heard appeared in his mind again, which were combined and split in his mind, and after a long time, he finally knew.
"It's life. Xu Yang replied.
You Longzi smiled silently.
"The most beautiful thing in the world is life, life is always tenacious, just like the sun relative to the world, the world with life is the real world. ”
"This is your way, to follow life, to find your life. ”
Xu Yang smiled, smiled very happily, at this moment he knew the master's good intentions, although what was said above seemed to have nothing to do with these, but, in fact, there were inextricable connections.
The sun not only drives away darkness and brings light and warmth, but also brings life.
The world is beautiful because of life, You Longzi indirectly told him the true meaning of life, and more directly told him the darkness of the world.
The world is also sad because of life.
Although Xu Yang is young, his master has guided him to a bright path, that is, life.
