Chapter 171: Smart Man
Therefore, when the slightly drunk Liu Laodao came back from the front yard, he saw Li Yunxin sitting alone under the dark corridor.
Lao Dao didn't know anything about what was happening in Fang Cai's courtyard, but he could see that Li Yunxin didn't seem to be very happy. I don't think Li Yunxin is unhappy because he is feasting alone. He knows that Brother Xin doesn't always love to be lively, nor does he always love loneliness. But Mr. Li would certainly not be happy to join in the excitement.
He dragged a rattan chair to Li Yunxin's side under the porch with some wine, and burped sideways: "Brother Xin, what's wrong?"
Li Yunxin glanced at him faintly in the dark: "That Yueyunzi has taken the bait." ”
Liu Laodao was stunned - the wine made him feel comfortable, but it also made his thinking a little duller. I was stunned for a while and laughed: "Ah, Brother Xin'er is clever-"
"Uh, he's been here just now!?"
After being surprised for a while, his brain turned around again: "But Brother Xin'er is ...... right now Is there anything else going on?"
Li Yunxin touched his folding fan and breathed a sigh of relief: "When I was outside the city, I told you that Yue Yunzi is a smart person - he will calculate me by cultivating good wishes and bad wishes. Now he looks like a smart man. I even found some doubts on my own - which saved me a lot of heart. I did follow the path I had designed, and made a fuss about good and evil. ”
"He even told me a bunch of things I didn't know about...... Reasonable, what a good teacher. ”
"That'...... Why is Brother Xin still bothered? Is it because his realm is too high?" asked Liu Laodao hesitantly.
"Because he's overclever. Not only is he a smart man, but he is also an ambitious smart man. What the hell......" Li Yunxin tapped the back of his hand with a folding fan, "He's a good monk, what kind of farmer he is—he actually knows the bean seeds." ”
Then he told Liu Lao Dao everything that had just happened with the night breeze and the smell of wine.
After finishing speaking, Lao Dao also frowned, pondered for a longer time, and asked, "Is he ...... This statement ......"
It sounds incredible, but when you think about it, it makes sense. As a Taoist monk, he now has to calculate the Taoism and harm his fellow disciples—it is a great sin to mutilate innocent fellow disciples. If you want to set up a game, use this statement to set up a game...... It's not flattering. So to speak...... It seems to be true. ”
Li Yunxin sighed softly: "Fool fool, just make up an excuse." To deceive ordinary people, you can make up a reasonable excuse. Lying to smart people is reasonable, but smart people will still have doubts. That's when you make up an unbelievable-sounding reason to deceive -- smart people will think like you. ”
But the wise will know what I have said - and they will doubt it. Thus...... It doesn't matter if the reason is justified or not. Whether or not a wise person can be deceived can only be decided by the wise person who has been deceived - whether to believe it or not to believe it. This is a kind of return to basics. ”
Liu Laodao drank the wine and was a little confused for a while. After thinking about it for a while, I still felt that I didn't get the true meaning. I had to ask, "Well...... Do you believe it or not?"
Li Yunxin glanced at him and seemed to think that this matter was very funny: "Yue Yunzi is indeed a smart person. I have done so many things in Dongting and Weicheng before, some of which I deliberately wanted to show him, and some of which I didn't want him to know. ”
As a result, now he has seen through it all-some things that I have delayed and done wrong, and he has also made up reasonable reasons and is self-consistent. What a terrible, clever man. This kind of smart guy like me said...... I don't believe a single punctuation mark. ”
Or ...... This guy scares me. Li Yunxin frowned dissatisfiedly, "He scared me." ”
"You think you were sitting happily fishing by the weeping willow white sand bank, and suddenly you were almost dragged into the water by the big fish you caught—and then the big fish negotiated with you about the conditions, saying that you would help him do something, and let you go—"
"Tut, if you think about his words - 'Well, you're looking for death.'" Li Yunxin's eyes widened in surprise. looked at Liu Laodao, and pointed at himself again, "I have never been the only one who speaks to others like this - he dares to say this to me!"
He looked at Liu Laodao and looked at it for a while. Liu Laodao, who was sluggish in thinking, hurriedly said: "Eh...... Yes, yes, too rampant, is it tolerable, is it unbearable?"
Li Yun put down his hand with satisfaction and turned around again. Looking at the swarthy courtyard, he pouted childishly: "In one Weicheng, there are two smart people." It's really a temple with a small demon and a shallow water. ”
"I'm going to kill him. ”
Liu Laodao wanted to ask, "Brother Xin'er, how are you going to kill him?"
But he knew that now was not the best time to ask about it—in case he hadn't thought of a way, he was afraid that he would have to spend the whole night. I'm even more afraid of what means Yue Yunzi has used to keep her eyes and ears in this courtyard.
So he didn't say anything, and sat quietly with him. After sitting for a while, I felt tired—though I shouldn't have slackened off at this time of nervousness and distraction—but I did feel sleepy from the alcohol.
There was a strange sense of contradiction in my heart - the situation was already on the verge of breaking out......
I actually ......
Not very worried.
Li Yunxin was silent for a while, as if he had just remembered that he had forgotten Liu Laodao. He waved his hand at him, "Ah, you go back to sleep." ”
Daoist Liu wanted to spend more time with him, but he knew that Li Yunxin didn't like to have other people around him when he was thinking—unless he was going to share his thoughts and try to get inspiration from others.
So he didn't say anything, nodded slightly and went into the house.
Li Yunxin stayed alone in the courtyard for a while, sighing from time to time. Nearly half an hour had passed, and the rattan chair creaked—and he stood up.
After pacing in the courtyard for a while, he said to himself in a very soft voice - the confident and relaxed meaning in front of Liu Laodao was gone: "Smart people, smart people, smart people...... What would you do as a smart man......"
The sound was soft, almost muffled by the rustle of the lush trees in the courtyard being blown by the night breeze.
But under the acacia tree, in a pile of fallen flowers on the ground, a half-crippled acacia flower trembled slightly—it caught the fleeting sound of the wind and quickly conveyed it somewhere.
The acacia flower continued to tremble slightly. However, after all, without the nourishment of the trees, the longer the trembling lasts, the more decadent it becomes—a few more filaments have fallen.
And Li Yunxin didn't speak for a long, long time. After pacing for another quarter of an hour, he finally lowered his voice, and spoke viciously, as if to a being somewhere, and as if to himself-
"Hey...... Smart people? You're smart, I'm crazy. ”
"A real villain...... Bet I don't dare go straight to the real thing!hey!"
"You really don't know what a demon is!"
"Tsk...... It's a pity that this beautiful face won't be done. ”
After he had said this, the half-crippled acacia finally lost its filaments and stopped trembling.
Li Yunxin snorted lowly, brushed his sleeves and walked back to his room.
