Chapter 23: A Long Conversation in the Middle of the Night
Xiong didn't know what passerby A needed, and he didn't know what passerby A was going to do, but Xiong believed in passerby A enough, just by virtue of his status in the rivers and lakes, and with his firm eyes.
"Well, I believe you. The bear nodded and agreed, "But what should I do next?"
At this moment, Xiong suddenly didn't know what he should do, before Xiong only had the goal of finding passerby A, but now, this goal has been achieved, Xiong suddenly seems to have unloaded a thousand pounds of load, and he is relaxed.
"You" Passerby A frowned and thought for a while, "You can do what you want to do now, when I find a cure for that Gu poison, I will naturally contact you, and then take you back to the bitter city to treat the people of the bitter city, as well as your pets." ”
In the eyes of passer-by A, those people in the bitter city are far more important than the bear's pet, but he doesn't know the meaning of Xiao Hei to the bear.
To be honest, although Xiao Hei is the bear's pet, the bear has never regarded Xiao Hei as a pet. In the eyes of the bear, Xiao Hei is like a close partner of the bear, a friend who can talk about everything.
But passer-by A didn't know all this, nor did he know Xiong's mood at the moment. Imagine what a lonely person who has fallen into despair will look like when he sees a glimmer of hope?
When the bear heard what passer-by A said "what he wanted to do", the bear froze all of a sudden, and his whole body seemed to be frozen, motionless.
"But what is what I should do?" When Xiong read this sentence in his mind countless times, he slowly came up with such a thought, "What I should do is to find the Ten Thousand Year Tree, find the master, and save Xiao Hei, but now, these things are still far away, what should I do?"
"If the heart is wide, the place is calm. Passerby A seemed to see the bear's confusion at this moment, and slowly said such a sentence from his mouth, making the bear seem to wake up the dreamer with a word.
"Don't do anything, just be patient and wait. Passerby A smiled and looked at the bear, "Many things are not just decided by you and me, these depend on the number of days, the destiny of heaven is constant, and the earth has no outline." ”
Xiong nodded as if he didn't understand, "Then I'll wait for you to find that thing for a while, and then go back to the bitter city with you?"
"Yes, you just have to be patient. Passerby A seemed to have something else to do, and after saying this, he flicked his sleeves and strode away, saying "Beware of arrogance and rashness." ”
When the bear raised his head, passer-by A had disappeared, and only the words that passer-by A had just said were still echoing in Xiong's ears, and the aftermath was endless.
Sometimes, in a strange place, in a strange environment, people will have strange thoughts.
At the moment, the bear is like this.
Looking at the starry sky, the bear walked step by step in the direction of going back, slowly, but rhythmically.
"Xiong, it's so late, why haven't you slept yet?" Xiong never expected that as soon as he pushed the door open, he bumped into Robben head-on.
"Didn't you sleep too?" said Bear to Robben with a smile.
Robben pursed the corners of his lips and said, "I have insomnia, I can't sleep, so I came down for a walk, but when I saw that the door of your room was open, I wanted to push the door open and want to chat with you, but when I pushed the door open, I found that you were not in the house at all." So I was curious, so I wanted to come out to find you, but I didn't expect that when I pushed the door resolutely, I bumped into you. ”
"Haha, that's a coincidence. Xiong smiled, pulled Robben into the courtyard, closed the door, and then walked to the gazebo and sat down, "You, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Robben was suddenly a little embarrassed, as if he wanted to say something, but couldn't.
"You want to get revenge on the woman in white. "Xiong actually doesn't know Robben's thoughts, it's just that Xiong knows that he just came to Fusang and doesn't know anything about things here, and if he acts rashly now, it is likely that not only will he not be able to take revenge, but even he and Robben will be buried here.
Therefore, Xiong did not rush to find the woman in white. However, Robben couldn't bear it anymore. Thinking of this, Xiong suddenly remembered what passer-by A said to himself before leaving, "Beware of arrogance and rashness!" Xiong said this sentence untouched and told Robben.
"Beware of arrogance and rashness?" Robben glanced at the bear with suspicious eyes, "What do you mean? Could it be that you regret it and don't want to help me take revenge?"
It can be seen that Robben does not trust the bear 100%, and he is still a little suspicious. This level of vigilance is not visible in normal times, but at this time, Robben can't help but reveal his true thoughts.
"You think that I didn't want to avenge you, just to use you to send me to Fuso, so I pretended to promise you, right?" Xiong smiled and looked at Robben, that smile, so simple, so natural, that Robben had no way to say something negative.
"Why don't you speak?" Xiong still looked at Robben with a smile, "I know, you must have something to say, since you want to say something, say it clearly at one time, save something to hold in your heart, and don't get sick if you hold it for a long time." ”
After Xiong said this, Robben seemed to let go of his thoughts, and plucked up the courage to say, "I didn't think so, but you have been in Fusang for more than a day, and you don't mean to help me find the woman in white at all, what should you let me think?"
"If you want to hurry, you can't get there. Xiong Xin said quietly, "This is an old saying in our Central Plains, you should have heard of it, right?"
Robben nodded, "I have indeed heard of this sentence, but I don't understand its reasoning." Why don't you tell me about it, it can be regarded as self-justifying. ”
"Good. Xiong smiled, "Since you want to hear it, I'll tell you about it." On a limited length, a limited width, there are three horses that want to reach another place. But the road could only accommodate two horses, and all three horses had to go to another place at the same time, so only some were in front and some were behind.
But the horse in the back was a little unhappy, and thought to himself, why should you be the only one in front, and I have to be behind?
On both sides of the road are cliffs. The horse ran away righteously, thinking that it must arrive before the two horses, but when it ran aside, it found that it was an abyss.
When it wanted to go back, it was too late, and the horse, which thought it wanted to pursue speed, fell into the abyss. ”
