Chapter 103: Hongshan Town
In the early morning of the next day, Lu Yan and Li Yunfeijian continued to set off, and turned out to the official road in the deep mountains and old forests, because they wanted to lead to the Hall of the Dead Heart, they could only take the official road near here.
On the official road, Lu Yan and the three of them all have a refreshing taste, after all, these two days have been spent in the deep mountains and old forests, and their comfort level is naturally far inferior to the inn, the road is full of weeds during the day, and they have to worry about the invasion of wild beasts at night.
The three of them hurried for a day, and finally arrived at a small town less than ten miles away from the Temple of the Dead Heart, called Hongshan Town, this town has fewer people than other towns, because this is the closest town to the Temple of the Dead Heart, few people dare to settle here, after all, the name of the Temple of the Dead Heart is known to the world, if it is not for some people who are forced to helpless, few people will settle here.
In front of the town, Lu Yan said to Li Yun and the flying sword: "We have to put away the gossip whip and the mandarin duck knife, there are many people in the Hall of the Dead Heart here every day, we have to be careful, and the flying sword, you cover Shangguan Ding's face so as not to be discovered." ”
Li Yun nodded, Feijian also nodded, and then the three of them entered the town, the scene in Hongshan Town was very pitiful, not to mention prosperity, even the tranquility was difficult to see, maybe it was because of the night, there were not many people walking on the road, but it could also be seen that the desolation of this town was really hard for these villagers.
When the three of them arrived at the door of the inn, Lu Yan said to the flying sword: "You take Shangguan Ding here, Li Yun and I will go to another inn not far away, and then you can wake up Shangguan Ding, let's act if we have no problems tomorrow." ”
Feijian nodded, carried Shangguan Ding into the inn, Lu Yan and Li Yun continued to walk forward, and went to another inn.
Flying Sword carried Shangguan Ding on his back and entered the inn, at this time only Xiao Er was cleaning up the table in the inn, seeing Flying Sword coming in, Xiao Er took a few steps forward, looked at Shangguan Ding on the back of Flying Sword and Flying Sword, and said to Flying Sword: "It's so late, but the guest officer wants to stay in the hotel?"
Feijian nodded and said, "Yes, my friend has drunk too much and can't continue to hurry, and now it's getting dark, let's stay here for one night, is there anything else to eat?"
Xiao Er said: "Naturally, there is still a lot of wine, but I'm afraid that there is no food or anything, and our chef has already closed....."
Before he finished his words, Feijian took out a large ingot of silver in his arms expressionlessly, threw it into Xiao Er's hand, and said, "Can you do it?"
Seeing such a big ingot of silver, Xiao Er was overjoyed, his eyebrows were about to fly, and he hurriedly said: "If you can do it, you can do it, come with me first, I will arrange a room for you, and then quickly deliver the food to your room." ”
Feijian nodded expressionlessly, Xiao Er smiled, led the way in front, and took Feijian to a guest room on the second floor, and then he went to arrange for cooking.
Feijian entered the room, put Shangguan Ding at the head of the bed, picked up the teapot on the table and took a big sip, he hadn't drunk water all day, and he was so thirsty that he died.
After drinking the water, Feijian sat down on the chair and muttered, "When I was young, Master taught me that goodness is like water, and water is good for all things. is evil to everyone, so it is more than the way. Dwelling in a good place, a good heart, a good heart, a good word, a good word, a good governance, a good work, and a good time. The husband is indisputable, so there is no especially. It's a pity that I am such a person, the Taoist way is to overcome rigidity with softness. But I, however, have deviated far from this track, and the heavens and the earth are unkind, and all things are used as dogs, and the saints are unkind, and the people are used as dogs. ”
After a moment of silence, he muttered again: " Or the master and his old man are far-sighted, he has long seen that I am born to be angry, even if there is no problem with my life experience, I am still a person who does not have too many emotions in my psychology, so he will teach me the way of Taoism, and he wants to try his best to resolve the anger on my body, but it is also well-intentioned, but it is a pity that my murderous intent is monstrous, but the smile I showed when I was with Brother Lu Yan and Brother Li Yun in the past few days has already topped all the previous smiles. There are only evil hearts in the world, and everything must be nurtured by God. Blind, deaf, dumb and dumb families are rich, wise and intelligent, but poor. The year, month and day should be determined, and it is not up to people to calculate the fate. ”
Shaking his head, he turned to look at Shangguan Ding, who was still unconscious, picked up the teacup, poured a bowl of tea, and didn't know what he was thinking.
Soon, the shopkeeper came up with a very hearty meal, put it on the table, and said with a smile at the flying sword: "You use it slowly, I'll go first." It's time for us to rest, so let's put it here after you've eaten, and the little one will help you take it out tomorrow, okay?"
Feijian nodded and said, "Okay, you go down first, don't let anyone come to my room." ”
The shopkeeper said: "Okay." ”
The shopkeeper walked out, and the footsteps were normal, but the internal strength of the flying sword was very strong, and it was not much weaker than Li Yun, how could I not hear that the shopkeeper was at the door, the flying sword sandwiched a piece of meat, and with a flick of his hand, the piece of meat pierced the window, only to hear the sound of "ah", the voice of the shopkeeper came, and the sound of falling to the ground came, and the flying sword said lightly: "If you don't leave, you don't have to go." ”
There was a sound of the shopkeeper getting up and running away from outside, and the flying sword couldn't help but shake his head, this Hongshan town is very close to the Hall of the Dead Heart, and the people who can live here are not simple, it is estimated that if the flying sword didn't find anything just now, then he would have to be assassinated tonight and take away all the silver taels on his body.
Feijian sighed: "Thousands of miles are like a dream, and your eyes are like stars." Stuffed with cattle and sheep empty promises, there are old alliances on the sideburns by candles. Walking in the snow. Slaughtering bears and fighting tigers with bare hands, Jin Ge swayed the soldiers. The remnants of plants and trees are cast iron, and the insects are cold and the palms are made of ice. Swaying the heroes. It's time for action. ”
After that, Feijian picked up the bowl full of water, walked to the front of Shangguan Ding, and poured a bowl of water on Shangguan Ding's face, being so excited by the cold water, Shangguan Ding's face seemed to move, but he had taken too much sweat medicine, and it would be difficult to wake up for a while, and Feijian also knew, so he was not in a hurry.
Flying Sword shook his head, didn't sleep, sat down at the table, and began to eat, he hadn't eaten a normal meal for more than two days, it was all the meat of some beasts, and there was no oil and salt yet, it was simply tasteless.
On the other hand, in another inn, Lu Yan and Li Yun.
Lu Yan took a sip of tea and sighed: "If Dacheng is lacking, its use is not harmful; If you are straight, if you are clumsy, if you are clumsy, if you are arguing. Restlessness is better than cold, quiet is better than heat, and tranquility is the right thing in the world. The most complete thing seems to be incomplete, but its function will never fail, and the fullest thing is like emptiness, but its function will not be exhausted. The most upright things seem to be crooked, the most dexterous things are like the most clumsy, and the most brilliant eloquence is like not being good at words. Tranquility overcomes disturbances, and cold overcomes summer heat. Only by doing nothing can you rule the world. Reasonable, Lao Tzu is Lao Tzu, I really see it more thoroughly than anyone else. ”
Li Yun walked over and said very facelessly: "You can get out, you are still Lao Tzu, you still rule the world, you are not the emperor, why are you talking about this." ”
Lu Yan glanced at Li Yun and said: "You stupid person who doesn't know anything, Lao Tzu said, I have three treasures, and I will keep them: one is kindness, the second is thrift, and the third is not daring to be the first in the world." The husband can be brave because he is thrifty, and he does not dare to be the first in the world, so he can become a long. That is, I have three Dharma weapons to keep and preserve: the first is called love, the second is frugality, and the third is not daring to be ahead of the rest of the world. With kindness, you can be brave, with frugality, you can be generous, and if you dare not be in front of the people of the world, you can get the love of the people of the world. Our reputation must be the same as Lao Tzu, loved by the people of the world. ”
Li Yundao: "I know, Lao Tzu said: between heaven and earth, life is one with heaven and earth." Heaven and earth are natural things; life is also natural things; human beings have changes in youth, youth, strength, and old age, just as heaven and earth have an alternation of spring, summer, autumn, and winter, what is the sorrow? If we are born in nature, die in nature, and let nature be natural, our nature will not be chaotic; if we do not let nature and are busy between benevolence and righteousness, our nature will be fettered. If the fame is in the heart, the anxiety will arise, and if the desire for profit is kept in the heart, the troubles will increase. In other words, the world is full of troubles, so we have to have fun on our own. ”
