Chapter 12: Blind Date
Letting go of Zhao Yu'an's hand, Jiang Chen smiled slightly, looked at the opposite side, and said calmly.
His tone was as indifferent, as if the surface of the water was empty without any fluctuations. It seems that no kind of worldly things can touch his heart.
Originally, it was a lifelong event for both men and women to meet and talk about marriage. But in Jiang Chen's mouth, it seems to be sparse and ordinary, just describing a fate.
Warriors live in the world, like a lotus flower growing in mud, although it is not stained with mud, but it is always the cause and effect of the dust.
The two families once made a marriage contract, and tonight's meeting is another fate. Fate will meet, and there will be all kinds of entanglements in the future.
He swims in the world, and the dust accompanies him without touching his body, like a lotus leaf growing in water, but it is not stained with mud.
Only when everything is laid out above board can it be sorted out clearly and neatly.
"Oh, that's you!"
Sure enough, after hearing Jiang Chen's words, Zhao Yu'an on the other side raised his eyebrows, and two fine lights shot out of his eyes at once, and a look of shock appeared on his face.
Her eyebrows are provocative, Lingyun is vertical and horizontal, and she has a heroic spirit. It is not like the thrush of the woman in the boudoir, but like the sword fairy and chivalrous woman who walked alone in the mountains and forests in ancient times, with an awe-inspiring and inviolable artistic conception.
"I'm a little impressed by what you say. When I was a child, before I went to study abroad, my family seemed to have engaged me to a marriage. But I didn't expect that the fiancΓ© I had never met would be such a master of transformation as you. β
Zhao Yu'an's eyes flickered, and then he narrowed slightly, looking at Jiang Chen like a curious cat, looking thoughtful.
She didn't expect that as soon as she returned to China, she would encounter such a coincidence.
Zhao Yu'an's heart moved slightly, and there were waves.
Originally, she had always been very dissatisfied with the marriage contract that her family had made to her, thinking that the other party was just a gentleman from a big family. But after seeing Jiang Chen at this moment, he felt very surprised, and an illusory feeling like a dream rose in his heart.
After all, the martial artist of the Transformation Realm, one in ten thousand, is a master at the peak of martial arts. If you achieve the body of the realm at the age of twenty, if there is no accident in the future, you will definitely be able to achieve a grandmaster-level figure.
"Hehe, but in a few days, it probably won't be. A few days ago, your family told my family that you were going to return to China, and tonight, my father urged me to go to Zhao's house in a private name to withdraw from the marriage and change the marriage partner to my eldest brother. But I think this should also be what your Zhao family meant. I don't know what you think about this?"
Jiang Chen smiled, his eyes looked at Zhao Yu'an, and his tone was casual. He has seen all this clearly, and he has already seen people's hearts.
Originally, he was called over by his father tonight and asked him to go to the Zhao Mansion to withdraw from the marriage, and he already had plans for this in his heart.
And now he has broken through the transformation realm, and his soul has been sublimated to be more pure and unrestrained. I happened to meet the other party outside, so I took a chance to test what the other party's master, the mysterious lady of the Zhao family, thought about this marriage.
Jiang Chen's eyes moved, and it was meaningful.
He knew that the Jiang family would not let him marry the eldest daughter of the Zhao family, but in the same way, how could the Zhao family accept a son-in-law who was outside the world?
The conversation that my father found him tonight was actually the result of a compromise between the two families.
In the current Changsha City, at the level of the Jiang family and the Zhao family, they are all overlords of the city, and their wealth is all over the sky. It is impossible for any family to accept a marriage that has no meaning and value.
A "rebel" like him, who is not in the world and can only practice martial arts, is destined to be an abandoned son for a huge family.
"Well, as you can see, I just returned home tonight, and I don't know what the elders in the family think. But I can be sure, mortal man, I can't think about it anyway. β
Hearing Jiang Chen's question, Zhao Yu'an shook his head, as if he didn't care, his eyes returned to coldness, and he showed his attitude:
"Actually, from the moment we penetrate the meridians, earth-shaking changes have taken place in our bodies, and we are no longer ordinary human beings. This is called evolution in the biological sciences of Westerners. There is no difference between us people looking at ordinary people and humans looking at monkeys and apes. My marriage, my destiny, will not be decided by the family, and this is actually the same for you. You can go back and tell your family about it, but I think you will definitely make the same choice as me. β
Zhao Yu'an said lightly, after saying these words, her eyes also looked at Changsha City, revealing a look of emotion, and suddenly closed her mouth.
Her tone was lonely and lonely, like a fairy in the clouds, unwilling to be contaminated with the world. In fact, after practicing martial arts to this extent, there are only men in the world who can be seen by her.
This kind of endless loneliness in martial arts is something that ordinary people can never understand.
"Well, that's true. β
Hearing her words, Jiang Chen's body moved slightly, and he let out a long roar: "When martial arts practice reaches our level, the essence of life has indeed changed a long time ago, just like a chrysalis breaking through a cocoon and turning into a butterfly, and like an ape evolving into a human. However, all beings are equal, all beings are suffering, and only the path of liberation is the eternal pursuit. On this road, we are only a few steps further than mortals. The world is a piece of silt, but lotus flowers can grow in the mud. There are lotus seeds in the depths of everyone's nature, and if a great trend comes, it can also bear the fruit of wisdom. β
He stretched out his arms like lotus leaves, and then made a large circle and made a gesture like picking fruit.
Then, Jiang Chen's arm was raised high, as if he had picked a fruit of wisdom from the lotus leaf, and wanted to give to the world.
The red world is a large pond full of silt, and some people are independent of it, blooming spotless lotus. Some people go with the flow and become duckweed without roots and stems. There are also people who are in the mud, stirring up the wind and rain, thinking that they are the real dragon in the sky, but in fact they are just a loach at the bottom of the pond.
Although everyone has the seed of a lotus flower in the depths of their nature, their aspirations are different, which determines the difference in their paths.
Jiang Chen looked at the starry sky from afar, and his eyes flashed with the figures of countless seekers throughout the ages.
From 3,000 years ago, the Buddha Shakyamuni, who abandoned his family business and practiced the Tao, and the Taoist ancestor Li Er, who gave up his official Lu and went out alone. To 1,500 years ago, there were many Buddhist masters and hermits in the Middle Ages......
The lonely wise man is always in pursuit of a near-impossible path that is beyond the comprehension of mere and worldly people.
Ten thousand years later, when civilization is empty and hundreds of countries are in decline. Only these gods, who are in the sky with their hearts in their hearts and lofty hearts, can leave their own marks on the trajectory of time and space.
In fact, if he is allowed to read now, with the development of the brain of a strong person in the transformation realm, he will definitely be able to read millions of words a day and memorize them all word for word. If you go into business and politics, then you can quickly solve any problem with a smart mind and thinking.
None of that was his path, though.
His path is to be uninhibited, to be free from life and death, to cut off the entanglement of delusions, and it is no longer a mortal life.
"You're no ordinary person. To tell the truth, I almost saw the shadow of my Wudang Taihe ancestor, Sanfeng Dao people thousands of years ago. To want to travel through the world with the heart of heaven and the Mahayana method, and to cross all living beings to the immortal path, is already a move against the sky. β
Seeing Jiang Chen's actions, Zhao Yu'an nodded, and his face was slightly moved: "I feel pretty good about you, but marriage is never a child's play." Fate is fate, fate is one thing, and division is another. We've met tonight, so this fate is over. After all, we are all born in such a family, and the blood is implicated, and it can't be broken for a while, so it's better to be false and wronged first, and after going back, just delay it as much as possible at home, there is no need to make too much trouble. β
"Yes, that's exactly what I thought. When we see each other tonight, fate will be resolved, and you and I will have less entanglement in the world in the future, and there will be more possibilities for further development. β
After being silent for a long time, Jiang Chen agreed: "Then the matter of the marriage contract will end here first, and how it will develop in the future will be discussed later." Now let's talk about the big things to do tonight. β
"Good!"
Speaking of tonight's "big event", Zhao Yu'an's breath perked up, and his eyes revealed murderous intent.
She was in high spirits, like a sleeping dragon awakened.
Jiang Chen immediately understood that her martial arts turned out to be the martial arts of the family and the country.
At the time of crisis, the scholar was born,
The country is the world, the country is strong, and the country is strong.
This 20-year-old girl, who has been abroad for many years, has not only not worn out the spirit of the nation, but has been aroused the deepest righteousness.
