After chatting about the incomprehensible atmosphere, Gao Pragmatic and Huang Zhiting talked about Ah Li again. Gao Shishi asked Huang Zhiting and Ah Li what the relationship was all about, and why they looked like old acquaintances, but Ah Li didn't seem to know her true identity.

Huang Zhiting grinned: "I knew you would ask about it." But she refused to say right away, and walked forward slowly.

There is a small river not far ahead, and the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkles on the surface of the river, flooding with light waves. The trees on both sides of the creek are also covered with a touch of golden red, and they look particularly beautiful under the sky that is turning from blue to ink.

Huang Zhiting walked in front, Gao pragmatic followed, and after walking for a while, Huang Zhiting suddenly said faintly: "Don't you think, living in the mountains is actually not bad, there are not so many intrigues, there are not so many you fighting for me, everyone doesn't need to think about so many complicated people and things, as long as they live quietly, it is the best." ”

It's a pity that she asked the wrong person, and Gao pragmatic answer was not zenzen: "Is life just to wait for death?" ”

Huang Zhiting was stunned, turned around, and said unhappily: "What do you mean just to wait for death?" ”

"The fish passes away, and forgets the water; The bird flies on the wind, but does not know that there is a wind. Gao Shi's faint tone was filled with pity: "Do you think these Yao people in the mountains live a simple and comfortable life?" No, they just don't dare to contact the outside world, for fear of being ridiculed, afraid of being bullied, afraid of being hurt, so they keep hiding in the mountains and never dare to face the world head-on. ”

Huang Zhiting looked at Gao Pragmatic in a daze, she didn't like Gao Pragmatic's words, and even rejected them a little, but she was more afraid, she intuitively felt that Gao Pragmatic's words were very reasonable, but she didn't understand this truth.

She found that she didn't understand him at all, which made her nervous, and she didn't know where it came from, and she didn't know why.

Huang Zhiting knew that she couldn't be pragmatic in her words, so she had to ask: "Could it be that they were suppressed by the imperial courts of previous dynasties and fled all the way to the mountains, but it was their fault?" ”

"Moths to fire, fire scorched moths, nothing is a disaster; Fruits and flowers, flowers bear fruit, you must know that there is a reason for blessing. Gao Pragmatism is still the same look as a master outside the world, with compassion in detachment: "Although the world is big, there will always be limits; Although the land is abundant, there will be an end to it. Every nation wants to live better, but the world is limited, if you live better, there will be more people, and they also want to live well, do you help?

gang, can only expand, can only rob the land that originally belonged to others. So where do the others go? Would you worry about them and not snatch them? Just as we cook sheep and slaughter cows, just to eat more and eat better, but how can cattle and sheep be innocent? Do you worry about cattle and sheep and not eat them? ”

Huang Zhiting opened her mouth in shock, but she couldn't speak.

Gao pragmatic said: "Maybe you want to say that they are not cattle and sheep, they are also living people, right?" ”

Huang Zhiting hurriedly nodded vigorously.

Gao Pragmatic sighed and said, "Now think about it, why do the Han people often call other people barbarians? ”

Huang Zhiting was stunned, and suddenly felt a chill in her heart: "You mean...... If you don't look at it well, you deserve it? ”

Gao pragmatic did not answer, but said: "People in the world want nothing more than a way to live, but there are many ways to live, a good life is a life, and a good life is also a life." However, only those who continue to pursue a good life, strive for the upper reaches and work hard, can they have the ability to live all the time, and the better they live; If you resign yourself to fate and get by, you can only be bullied and oppressed, or even exterminated.

I often think, I'm here for the big ...... What happened to this world, why did it come? Later, I thought about it, but it was just for the sake of my Chinese Miao descendants not to be that cold bird. ”

"Chill Bird? What is that? "Huang Zhiting obviously didn't hear this story.

"Oh, that's a story written by a man named Tao Zongyi during the founding of my dynasty."

Gao pragmatic said: "He said in the story: There are birds in Wutai Mountain, called cold bugs, four-legged, flesh-winged, and unable to fly. Its dung is the 'five spirit fat'. In the middle of summer, Mao Yu was brilliant, and he said to himself: 'The phoenix is not as good as me!' When it was bitterly cold in the depths of winter, the feathers fell off, and if they were chicks, they chirped to themselves: 'Get by.' You think, the cold of deep winter is not human to resist, you will come, if you are like a cold bird and do not prepare, as soon as winter comes, it is the time of death...... That's what happens to get by. ”

"Oh, I see." Huang Zhiting nodded thoughtfully, and suddenly her eyes showed admiration: "I can't imagine that I can understand so many truths in reading, you, can you teach me to read in the future?" ”

Gao Pragmatic was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "There is a way to accumulate money, it is better to interpret the scriptures." Miss Huang wants to study, it is true that she is very good, but she is ...... I don't know how long I can stay in Guangxi, and even if I am willing to teach, I am afraid that I may not be able to teach much. ”

Huang Zhiting's face changed, and she said hurriedly: "You want to leave?" ”

Gao Shishi was surprised: Do you really want to keep me as a master in Siming Mansion? That's not going to work.

But rejecting this kind of thing is too direct and easy to do bad things, especially since the other party has a good attitude towards himself now, but if he turns his face, it will be very bad, this is the home of the emperor of the earth, what can't be done in a hurry?

smiled immediately: "I am a scholar in the next place, and naturally I want to be on the Dragon and Tiger List for the first time in one fell swoop, and I will be in the Phoenix Pool for ten years...... I always have to take a test, but I have a long-cherished wish in my heart. ”

Huang Zhiting relaxed slightly, and said: "Oh, you want to participate in the tribute ceremony, this is easy to do, when I return to Siming Mansion, I will ask my father, there may be one or two lifting places in our house." ”

Gao Pragmatic heard that it was not the way, so he didn't dare to continue to talk about this, and hurriedly asked: "Don't be in a hurry about this matter, I talked about Miss Ali and you ...... before."

"Hmph, I've only met once and I've never forgotten it."

Gao pragmatic said with a bitter face: "That's no way, I'm afraid!" ”

Huang Zhiting sneered, rolled her beautiful eyes, and said, "Okay, seeing that you are so pitiful, this girl will be merciful and tell you." ”

She said: "Eight years ago, I went to Guilin with my father, not far from the south of Bazhai, when there was a Han staff who passed through a small town there, lived in an inn, and the next day the abdomen was swollen The boss, the member thought that he had been hit by Gu, and sent the family to search around, and found a pair of Yao mother and daughter.

Originally, the mother and daughter were just going down the mountain from Bazhai Mountain to sell some local products, and they were about to return to the village, but just because there were only two Yao people in the town at that time, they were regarded as people who planted Gu for the outside. The woman was lynched and tortured by his subordinates and was dying, and the daughter was tortured half to death.

I took my subordinates out shopping and encountered this incident, and I was angry for a while, so I ordered the person and his family to be arrested, and beat them, and asked someone to ask Lang Zhong to treat the injuries of the mother and daughter, and finally sent someone to send them back to the village. At that time, the mother and daughter were very grateful, and asked me my name, I was afraid of causing trouble for my father, so I didn't dare to say it all, only said that I was the daughter of the Huang family's Tusi sect...... As you must have guessed, the mother and daughter are Sister Ali and her mother. ”

"I see." Gao pragmatically nodded, but he didn't understand in his heart, since Huang Zhiting was kind to Ah Li, why did the two of them meet today but they had a normal relationship?

Huang Zhiting seemed to guess the doubts in Gao Shishi's heart, and explained: "Do you think it's strange because Sister Ali's attitude towards me today is not too affectionate? ”

Gao Pragmatic had no choice but to admit it, Huang Zhiting sighed and said: "You don't understand, Sister Ah Li used to be a very kind and enthusiastic person, she was originally cultivated as a Yao doctor in the village, but after being selected as a successor by the grass ghost wife, she will definitely refine the Taishang Heart Gu." I don't know what this Gu is for, but I know that after this Gu is refined, it will become a ruthless person, judging from today's situation...... She should have been refined. ”

Although Gao Pragmatic was shocked by Ah Li's Gu magic today, if it was said that a certain Gu would become "too forgetful" after it was refined, Gao Pragmatic still couldn't believe it.

In his heart, he estimated that this Taishang Heart Gu might only be able to affect people's mental state, maybe its function was just to allow the person who refined this Gu to calm down at any time. In other words, in his previous life, it is to make people's mood swings completely controllable, and there will be no big fluctuations.

If a person can maintain absolute composure under any circumstances, of course it is very powerful, worthy of the name of "Taishang Heart Gu", but ordinary people can't see this Gu "power" at all, so Huang Zhiting said that she doesn't know what this Gu is for.

It's as if everyone in later generations knew that the atomic bomb was powerful, because the atomic bomb was so powerful, but few people cared about the upgrading of the most advanced command system in the information age—in fact, it might be more valuable than the atomic bomb.

Of course, Gu Technique is really not Gao Shi's specialty, and he can only guess like this, whether it is or not, he can't guarantee it. But in any case, Huang Zhiting's statement at least explains Ah Li's attitude today, which is a kind of indifference that no matter who she is, there are not too many ups and downs.

Narcissistic to put it a little bit, Gao Pragmatic even thinks that she is a little special about herself, maybe because she has never found someone with "Haoran Qi" in the past, so she is a little curious?

But it doesn't matter, Gao Pragmatic can be said to be more afraid of this girl who can kill people at any time than any other emotion, he has been wanting to know about her and Huang Zhiting's past just now, and he also hopes that he will not be ignorant, in case he inexplicably angers such a person, it will be very bad.

At least, it is best not to have this happen during my time in Guangxi.

A gentleman doesn't stand under a dangerous wall, after all, it is human instinct to save his life, and it is not a shame to be without involving "where righteousness lies".

Huang Zhiting saw that Gao Shishi's face gradually calmed down, and couldn't help but smile: "You don't have to think too much, since Sister Ali promised to help you, she will definitely help, she is the descendant of the grass ghost wife, but she doesn't count if she can't speak." ”

"When you say that, I think I'm going to ask." Gao Shishi looked curious: "Who is the grass ghost wife, this name sounds really ...... Not too tasteful. ”
