Chapter Eighty-Four: The Uninteresting Rivers and Lakes
Yue Manlou was lying on the bed, but his eyes were still open, and there were deeper thoughts swirling in his mind in that deep gaze. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
This day, this night, he has consumed too much energy, this moment is his weakest time, but he did not choose to continue to exercise and meditate to speed up the recovery of strength, but lay on the bed, he needs to think about what happened today, this is a habit he has kept for so many years, especially at this time, a sober person is much more important than a person with martial arts.
The ghost woman pretended to be Yue Manlou's personal maid, if there was no hidden dragon, it would be foolproof, but it was a pity that Fu Xi forgot the existence of the hidden dragon, and the hidden dragon was also Yue Manlou's personal guard, how could a pretended personal maid escape the eyes of the personal guard.
But there was always something that made Yue Manlou feel strange tonight, there was a place in his brain that didn't match the surroundings that kept playing with his nerves, but when he wanted to explore, he couldn't find a trace. This feeling that was clearly in front of him but couldn't grasp it after reaching out made Yue Manlou no longer able to lie on the bed with peace of mind, so Yue Manlou decided to get up and relax his mind.
Yue Manlou put on a cloak, slowly walked to the terrace, looked into the distance, the heavy rain in the dark night violently knocked on the roof and the ground, the ticking sound with the wind sometimes concentrated, sometimes scattered, the lanterns hanging on the terrace swayed in the wind, the fire flickered and dimmed. Yue Manlou was motionless, enjoying the refreshment of the wind.
Isn't the wind and rain of this night just like the rivers and lakes at this moment?
Yue Manlou suddenly thought of something and shouted, "Someone." ”
Wanyue immediately pushed the door in, walked in front of Yue Manlou and asked, "What does the pavilion master command?" ”
"Go and call You Xiaodao, I want to meet him. Yue Manlou said.
"Yes!" the waning moon immediately turned and walked out.
After a while, the knife arrived, and as soon as he entered, the waning moon closed the door.
The pavilion master's resting place has never come in, and the knife can't help but look left and right curiously. The room is simply furnished, but it is extremely luxurious. A faint sandalwood fragrance into the heart, the ground is covered with colorful carpets, stepping on it is soft and comfortable, as if the burden of a body is being unloaded by it, as far as the eye can see is a mahogany round table, surrounded by four chairs, around the wall hung four pairs of ink and blue, the deputy pen is exquisite, and the corner table is placed on the blue and white porcelain. Behind the table is a quadruple screen, on which Meilan bamboo chrysanthemum is painted, and the warm light of the standing lamps on both sides illuminates the whole room, making people feel even warmer.
After looking around, Xiao Dao took two steps forward, began to search for the location of the pavilion master, looked to the right, and saw Yue Manlou standing on the terrace with his back, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Xiao Dao see the pavilion master." ”
Yue Manlou turned around, looked at the knife, and was silent for a while and said: "When I was ten years old, my whole family was killed by the old man, I don't know what kind of compassion he had at that time, after seeing me, he violated the first rule of this Lanyue Pavilion and cut down the grass and eradicated the roots! I didn't hate him at that time, because I didn't dare, a person who could decide my life and death in an instant stood in front of you, how dare you disobey? Not to mention that I was only a ten-year-old child at that time. But I can't blindly cater to this person, because he knows, and I know, that there is a bitter feud between us. I had to put on the appearance of being tamed by him, adoring him, and I couldn't do all the things he wanted me to do, and I couldn't say all the things he wanted me to say. As the days went by, I wondered every day and night what to do the next day to reassure him. ”
Knife didn't speak, but listened attentively.
Yue Manlou continued: "It wasn't until ten years ago that I finally grew up and learned almost all of his kung fu, and he was finally old, old enough to want to find a new pavilion master for Lanyue Pavilion. Then I knew that my opportunity had come, but I could not wait for him to announce the day, for he would not forget, and I would not forget, that there was a bitter feud between us. ”
Xiaodao nodded, and the majestic person in front of him was also a hard-working person.
Yue Manlou's tone did not change at all, even at such an exciting moment in the story: "I planned the whole assassination plan, I encircled all the good brothers around him, killed all the people who resisted, and finally had everything he once had, but in the end I still couldn't attack him." At the moment when I pointed my sword at him, I saw that his eyes were not fearful or doubtful, but rather approving and affirming. Do you know why?"
"Why?" blurted out the knife, what else could he say at this time?
"I finally understood why he didn't kill me back then, his heart was already dead at that time, he wanted to rest, there was nothing in this river and lake that could make him excited, so he left my life, he knew that I would definitely take revenge, he had been waiting for this day, waiting for me to let him rest. And I was like his pawn, and I walked to the last game of his cloth. ”
"I don't know why the pavilion master wants to talk to his subordinates about this. Knife asked.
"Let me ask you, do you find this a thing interesting. Yue Manlou asked rhetorically.
"Uninteresting. Knife said.
"Oh, why is it boring?" Yue Manlou's eyes flashed.
"Grievances and hatreds, no one can escape from them, how can it be interesting to be so unchanged. "Knife is blunt.
"That's right! I also felt that this river and lake was boring like you that year, and then I put down the things in the pavilion and traveled all over the Central Plains, and returned to Lanyue Pavilion a year later, and then I completely forgot what I thought before. Yue Manlou said.
"Why?" asked Knife.
Yue Manlou took a step closer to the knife and said: "Grace can be broken, grievances can be eliminated, feelings can be forgotten, hatred can be avoided, but no matter what, you can't escape people, when you want to struggle to escape these, have you examined your heart, have you escaped yourself?"
"This... The knife was stopped.
"If you can't escape yourself, you can't escape this world. Yue Manlou said with a smile.
"Then how can you get away with yourself. Knife asked.
"Unless you die, how can you escape from yourself, and act only to be worthy of your sincerity, not for gratitude, not for resentment, not for affection, not for hatred. If you want to love someone, you can love, and you can't because he has kindness, resentment, affection, or hatred against you, and if you want to kill someone, you naturally can't because of these, you will understand that the rivers and lakes are boring, people are interesting, and you don't have to think about how to escape. ”
