Chapter 4: Deep Thought
[Full text reading.]
Xiao Bobai opened his mouth wide, and he was stunned on the spot for a moment
Xiao Jin Shiyue said: "You know I'm fine, so you went around looking for something for me, isn't it?"
Xiao Bobai came to his senses and hurriedly said: "The old slave knows that he is wrong, and after returning to Hangzhou, I will immediately release Miss Qin and send a letter to the old swordsman Yan to break the contract."
Chang Sihao said: "No need to let it go" Xiao Bobai's face was strange Chang Sihao said: "Your news is correct Yin'er is indeed amnesia due to illness Before this, the person she likes is your young master His eyes moved to Xiao Jinyue: "You two have affection for each other, it's better than ...... for her to be with you" Xiao Jinshiyue blinked: "Who has a relationship with her" Chang Sihao said: "You" Xiao Jinshiyue was stunned for a moment and suddenly laughed Xiao Bobai looked at him with a stunned face: "Young master...... Young master, slow down and be happy, don't choke on it, the old slave is really scared to look at it."
Xiao Jinshiyue laughed for a long time, slowly eased her breath, and said: "I know, it must be that you eavesdropped outside my window and had a misunderstanding" Xiao Bobai said: "Young master, you know what I and the master eavesdropped" Xiao Jinshiyue smiled: "Of course I know, because I didn't fall asleep at all, and I wasn't talking in my sleep, I just thought about things by myself, and didn't pay attention to people."
Xiao Bobai said: "Think about things, what are you thinking?"
Xiao Jin Shiyue said: "When I won two battles in the sword trial conference, I found that there was a girl in the stands who looked at me differently, and in the interval between getting on and off the stage, I also looked at her a few times, and at the moment of staring at each other, I felt that there were some subtle changes in my heart and body, so that every time the next opponent stood in the ring, I had an indescribable impulse, an impulse to show all my self, so unconsciously, my shot became more and more ruthless, and it seemed to fall into some kind of madness Feeling like I and everything around me was getting out of control......"
Chang Sihao secretly inhaled the cold air and thought, "Yin'er looked at his eyes...... It must have been with a strong admiration and admiration...... So the cause of the bloody robbery at the sword test conference turned out to be ......."
Xiao Jin Shiyue said: "I know that if I continue like this, I will lose sooner or later At that time, I tried my best to control myself and maintain my composure on the surface, but my heart became more and more turbulent until a person came to the stage."
He walked very slowly, very calmly, but there was a strong sense of oppression that penetrated into my heart, I clearly remember that the sun was shining brightly, and the ring was white, and the people in the formation shouted: 'Sword tester: Qin Mo', that was his name, and I looked into his eyes, and I knew that I had met a real opponent, and my heart suddenly became extremely calm."
Chang Sihao also recalled the picture that Jue Xiang had told him at the beginning, although he knew that Qin Mo was finally defeated, he was still nervous for no reason, and his heart was pounding
I saw Xiao Jinshiyue describe this The expression that originally looked very cynical was two more solemn points and gestured the distance with his hand: "At that time, we stood opposite each other on the stage Qin Mo leaned over and bent his legs and pressed the knife with one hand My eyes were on his shoulders I could clearly see the ups and downs driven by breathing The ups and downs were extremely subtle In my eyes, it was like a mountain peak collapsing and uplifting
There are all kinds of signs that this is a great master who is different from others Judging only from the breathing rhythm and demeanor, his skills are at least comparable to the characters in the Sword Cultivation Hall At that time, I thought that it was rumored on the rivers and lakes that the fifth elder of the Qin family had devoted himself to the sword path and finally achieved great success, and he had already surpassed his father at a young age, and it seemed that it was true
I knew that he was also observing my breathing At this time, I shouldn't have been distracted, but I just thought of that girl I knew she must be watching me At the moment of thinking of this, Qin Mo observed the change in my breathing, and rushed over like an arrow He made a move I instinctively threw the umbrella at him I felt that I was going to lose, but the performance in my heart suddenly burst out, making me rush out desperately
At that moment, my mind was blank All movements were completely instinctive When everything came to rest My sword was in my hand People are on the side of the stage Qin Mo's neck cracked Blood spurted out His sword was only halfway out I felt strange He shouldn't be such an opponent He should be stronger and more difficult But he died
I was deep in thought
The question I pondered was: Did he die because he was weak or because I pushed my limits
If it's the latter, then what I'm able to push through the limits of what I'm able to do is whether it's a momentary outburst of emotion or a state of selflessness that results in a state of self-forgetfulness
These two questions have bothered me for a long time, and during that time, I have been thinking about this all the time, thinking about it during the day, thinking about it at night, and dreaming about it, so I will continue to use that trick in bed, and finally come to a conclusion, "When he said this, his eyes suddenly returned to his eyes, and he looked at Chang Sihao: "The conclusion is: Qin Mo's death is very problematic."
Chang Sihao was stunned for a while and asked, "What is the problem?"
Xiao Jin Shiyue said: "I don't know, but I know that even if I can kill him in my state at the time, it won't be so easy It gives me the feeling that Qin Mo was a little unusually sluggish when he made a move, and this sluggishness should have felt it himself at the same time as making a move, which was like ...... Two people started at the same time, and he stumbled at the same time as he started."
Xiao Bobai said: "Hey, think about the situation at that time, it is indeed ......."
Chang Sihao thought to himself: "So...... Could it be that he was hit by some tiny secret weapon But after the fight, the people of the Qin family will always conduct an autopsy, and if there is a secret weapon, they will find out...... If Qin Mo was killed, then what was the purpose of the person who harmed him Is it to make the Qin family and the Xiao Mansion feud Could it be that this is Dongchang again...... Yes, I remember who said that at that time, there were three of the four major stalls of the East Factory at the sword trial conference...... However, VIPs like them should be not far from Zheng Mengzhu, and it will be quite difficult to make small moves, which is ......" was also confused for a while
Xiao Jin Shiyue said: "I can't think of an answer to this question, and my mind turned back to swordsmanship, and I used to practice swordsmanship, and I tried to keep my mind stable and calm, but the battle in the ring made me discover another level of things, that is, the mind and feelings can 'influence' or 'improve' a person's martial arts But I haven't been involved in ** for 20 years, and I don't know how to start for a while, so I follow that trace of affection In my heart, I imagined a scene of falling in love with the girl In order to experience the linkage between psychology and physiology."
Xiao Bobai then understood: It turned out that the young master was lying on the bed and shouting the name of the girl, but he was actually understanding swordsmanship and martial arts, but this kind of thing is simply unbelievable to say It is better to treat him as a nymphomaniac and a madman so easy to accept
Xiao Jin Shiyue said: "I have been in the chaos for more than three years, and suddenly one day I found that love, vanity, and expressiveness all have one of the biggest roots, and this root is 'difference' Difference produces 'you', 'me' With each other, people will 'love and hate', 'compare' or 'hostile' Then there will inevitably be right and wrong, right and wrong, quarrels, if we see the world as the same, then the stone is also me, the flowers and plants are also me, you are also me, I am also me, we are all relatives, a family Even a person who has such a heart, I suddenly feel that the world has changed, and I don't want to kick a stone or pull a flower at random, because that would be like kicking myself and slapping myself in the mouth, and when I was eating for a while, as the rice grains were chewed in my mouth, I would involuntarily shrink my shoulders, and I could even feel that I was being bullied, and I felt the pain......."
As he spoke, he curled up with his body crossed his forearms to protect his chest and his hands on his shoulders There was a feeling that he wanted to completely protect himself Seeing Xiao Bobai's lips tremble, he stretched out his hand and held it together Neither is it a pat nor is it a vigorous voice: "Young Master, wake up, wake up, wake up...... Why are you like this again You are so scary like this......" The family members and sailors next to him were also at a loss for what to do
Xiao Jin's body suddenly fell upside down and spread into the word "big" Haha laughed: "That state was a long time ago."
Chang Sihao suddenly remembered the mentor Lin Xunhua of the Lord of the Zheng League, and thought: "Senior Lin said that his 'two dependent swordsmanship' is divided into body and mind, people and swords depend on each other, all things depend on each other, and the body and mind depend on each other, and the body and mind are all together, and the human sword is dependent on each other, and the sword is ruthless, so that the sword is spiritual, and the stubborn stone nodded and said that if you can practice to the extreme, you can sense the subtle connection between all things and understand the truth of biochemical decay Even the master of Zheng Meng can only prove that people and swords depend on each other And this Xiao Jinyue in front of him can actually distinguish yin and yang, water and fire from the watermelon Find yourself in the flowers, plants and stones Could it be that he has reached this' The wonderland of the sword is still ...... Or even this supreme realm has been transcended."
Just thinking to himself, he was lightly poked in the armpit, and saw Xiao Jinyue smile and said: "So, your wife is still up to you to take it back, although you are me, yours is also mine, but she doesn't think so, haha"
Looking at the thousands of waves that were darkening in front of him, Chang Sihao felt a sense of crying and laughing for a while, and stayed there speechless
Life on the sea voyage is monotonous and boring In the following days, in addition to practicing chicken leg steps on the deck, he gossiped with Xiao Jinyue This deep chat only to find that the other party's understanding of both swordsmanship and life has reached an unbelievable point Sometimes listening to him often isolate and inexplicable But after turning several corners, I found that people had already talked about it in front and went straight to the core So the more I talked, the more I loved to chat, and I was almost inseparable from him
One day, I was suddenly curious and remembered to ask him why he didn't see the "Poor Qi Sword" Xiao Jinyue said lightly: "It's done"
"Dang" Chang Sihao almost thought he had misheard
Xiao Jinshiyue said with a smile: "Relatives are stingy, and they can't eat for nothing."
Chang Sihao asked: "How much money did you be?"
Xiao Jin picked up the moon and said: "Two hangings"
"What" Chang Sihao said: "Isn't the Poor Qi Sword one of the four famous swords, what is the glacier inserting into the sea, and the warbler complains about the Poor Qi, although it is ranked at the bottom, it is not so cheap."
Xiao Jinshiyue said with a smile: "Because I only used the money for an umbrella, the other party didn't see that it was a sword."
Chang Sihao was dumbfounded for a long time and sighed: "Yes, everyone like you, plants and trees can be used as swords, even if it is a burning stick in your hand, there will be no problems."
Xiao Jin Shiyue smiled and stretched out his hand to wipe it on his waist Pulled the "Ten Miles of Time" in his hand Dropped the tip of the sword and shook his hand Nail it into the deck with a "tuk" and asked: "You take a burning stick to try it and see how hard it takes to insert it " and pulled up the "Ten Miles of Time" and swiped it in his hand and said: "A layman will never be able to speak in the jargon What heavy sword does not need to be sharp, and holding grass can hurt people It's really whimsical What is good and false to abandon the sword and use grass to like the heavy and dislike the light Why not change the hammer and shoot the meteor "
Chang Sihao said: "I know a person who makes the big sword blade wide and thick and seven feet long, and the martial arts are really not low" Xiao Jin Shiyue asked: "This person is still alive" Chang Sihao shook his head: "He died under a soft sword" Xiao Jin Shiyue smiled: "It seems that the facts have proved for me" Chang Sihao was silent for a moment and suddenly asked: "Brother Xiao has a soft sword breaking method"
Xiao Jinyue looked at him with a smile: "How come the person who died is your friend?"
Chang Sihao seemed to be unable to answer, and his gaze was suddenly a little distant
Xiao Jinshiyue asked: "What about the person who killed him?"
Chang Sihao said: "It's my brother"
Xiao Jin Shiyue said: "Your brother killed your friend, how can you repay this revenge" Chang Sihao looked at the sea for a long time: "I hope this revenge never has to be avenged, but I am afraid that the world is impermanent, I am afraid that one day, the good brothers will turn against each other, and I am afraid that one day, someone will recognize other places as their hometown."
Xiao Jin picked up the moon and said: "It seems that I don't have to teach you."
Chang Sihao said: "Why do you think my martial arts are enough to deal with it?"
Xiao Jin Shiyue said: "No, because you will definitely lose" After saying this, he thrust his sword into the deck, scratched his buttocks, and paced idly, leaving Chang Sihao alone in the wet sea breeze, alone with the swaying sword body, silent and in a daze
