"But that's it. There is an old saying in my hometown, that is to know the fate of all people, which means that we humans can only do what we should do, and the rest can only be left to fate. Indeed, sometimes , You have worked hard all your life, but in the end you fell short because of bad luck. Such things have happened. But on the other hand, if you don’t work hard, then you will not even have the experience of falling short of success—— just like these Like the players in the starting town, their combat skills are very poor, and some people will not even choose to fight. Of course, in most cases, this is nothing. But what if there are special events? For example, monsters attack the city What, at that time, what should they do?"

Having said this, Fangzheng smiled slightly.

"This is the difference between working hard and not working hard. I have worked hard. I can't guarantee that I will be absolutely successful, but at least I can stand at this watershed in fate. But those who have not worked hard, they don't even have the chance to choose There will be. Besides, the most important thing is firm belief and courage.”

"Faith and...courage."

"Yes."

Fangzheng nodded, and looked away, his dark eyes were focused on Asuna.

"It's not a bad thing to be afraid of death. Every time before a battle, I think, I don't want to die, I won't die---but I won't say I'm not afraid of death, I'm afraid of death. Because I still have a lot of things to do, There are many people who need my protection, and I am not only burdened by me alone. So I will not say that I am not afraid of death. It is easy not to be afraid of death, because death is also easy. But it is very difficult to live, especially when This is especially true when there are countless obstacles in front of you."

"…………………"

This time, Asuna didn't speak, while Fang Zheng stared at her.

"My mentor once told me that what a true warrior needs is firm belief, courage, and the will to follow his own path forward. You are very strong, Asuna, and your strength is second to none in the Dark Moon Sword It can be counted, you charge at the forefront in every battle, and the damage you cause in every lord boss battle is also in the top three. In terms of training hard, you are unmatched. However, you are not a qualified fighter. Even... even Gabriel is more like a qualified fighter than you."

"Huh? Wait...Mr. Fangzheng!"

Hearing this, Asuna couldn't stand it anymore. She could understand Fangzheng's comparison with anyone, but she couldn't accept Gabriel's abandoned house!

"Am I not as good as Gabriel?"

"In a way, yes."

Fang Zheng nodded mercilessly, which made Asuna's face turn pale.

I have worked hard for so long, but in the eyes of Mr. Fangzheng, I am not as good as the second-year waste house who always finds excuses to be lazy and sleeps in the room with a hooded head and hides behind biubiubiu while fishing and fighting all day long?

The reason why Fangzheng specifically mentioned Gabriel is because, in the guild, the relationship between Asuna and Gabriel is not very good.

The reason is simple, Asuna is a hard-working training freak, while Gabriel is a master of lazy fishing.

Especially after getting the bow and arrow made by Fangzheng, Gabriel's ability to catch fish has improved to a higher level. She still moved when she was holding the one-handed hammer before, but after getting the bow and arrow, Gabriel could not even move. I'm too lazy to move, I wish someone else could carry her on her back, and then she just needs to be responsible for biubiubiu.

Fang Zheng could still remember that once Asuna led a team to practice leveling, because he couldn't understand Gabriel's decadent and lazy look, so he proposed to extend the leveling time, and he had to make up for the level that Gabriel lost before.

In the end, Gabriel was fine. She asked Aoba to go to the front to blame, and she shot arrows in the back biubiubiu, and she was directly upgraded in just 10 minutes. Na was pissed off.

Not to mention Gabriel's character is also very casual, her catchphrase is "that's it", "whatever it is", "whatever it is"... Naturally, Asuna, who is serious by nature, can't see it.

"For a fighter, the most important thing is to carry out your beliefs. You may think that Gabriel is lazy and fishy, ​​but at least she has carried out her beliefs. Moreover, she didn't stop fighting because of being lazy, right? ? Her contribution in the battle is no less than anyone else——I think you have heard Gabriel say that she wants to stay in this world for the rest of her life and not go out, but if she wants to do this, She has to survive first. But you are different..."

Having said this, Fangzheng paused for a moment, then he looked at Asuna meaningfully.

"You're just begging to die, Asuna."

"…………………"

This time, Asuna opened her mouth, but nothing came out.

Fangzheng's words were like a sharp knife, piercing through Asuna's line of defense with ease, allowing her to see the reality she was least willing to accept.

That's right, at the beginning, Asuna worked very hard, trying very hard to upgrade, fight, get through the game as soon as possible, and then return to the real world.

But gradually, Asuna began to adapt to this game, and gradually got to know about online games. She began to understand that the boss in online games cannot be killed by one person, and must cooperate with other people.And the further you go, the stronger the boss in the online game will be, and the time it takes for people to beat the boss will be longer and longer.

The more she understood this, the more desperate Asuna became. She didn't even know when she would be able to return to the real world.So Asuna began to give up on herself, frantically leveling and fighting.For Asuna, she had to either win the battle or die in the battle——if she died, perhaps it would be a kind of relief for her.

This is also the reason why Asuna is obsessed with the book, she just wants to escape, whether it is death or the book, as long as Asuna can forget that cruel reality.

But now, Fang Zheng once again brought Asuna back to that cruel reality.

"That's what I want to tell you, Asuna."

Fangzheng withdrew his gaze and looked at the fountain and flower bed in front of him again.

"You can face the boss, why don't you have the courage to face yourself? What is your belief? What is your ideal... What do you... want to do?"

9Chapter 17 Fox pretends to be a tiger?

What am I trying to do?

Faced with this question raised by Fang Zheng, Asuna also didn't know how to answer it for a while.

What she wants to do, this question was not a problem in Asuna's eyes. She should study hard according to her mother's request, and then be admitted to a good high school, a good university, and become the organizer and manager of certain committees. , won several awards, and finally married a noble and outstanding man according to his mother's request.

For Asuna, the road in front of her is already planned for her by her parents, and she just needs to follow this road.But now, because of a small accident, she has deviated from the path planned by her parents, and is alone in the boundless wilderness, not even knowing which way to go...

To be honest, Asuna's problem is not a problem at all in Fang Zheng's view.This kind of distress that only the children of the powerful in Japan would have, was basically the nightmare of all Fang Zheng's peers in that era.At that time, their parents were the same as Asuna's parents, asking their children to be admitted to a good university and then find a good job.

And Founder's generation is also called the generation of change, why?It's simple...

When Fangzheng was in elementary school, college students were still very popular with Wowotou, and the iron rice bowl had not yet been abolished, so the nagging of his parents at that time was "study hard, get a good university when you grow up, and then come out and find a good job in the government. You don't have to worry about anything."

Then when Fangzheng was promoted to junior high school, the iron rice bowl was gone, reform and opening up, foreign capital entered.So the parents' words changed to "study hard, learn foreign languages ​​well in college, and then go to a foreign-funded enterprise to find a good job, maybe you can go abroad."

And when Fangzheng was in high school, the Internet started to develop rapidly, so the words of his parents became "study hard, learn a computer, the newspaper said that computers are the future, and you have to choose a good major when you go to college..."

Finally, when Fangzheng was in college, the college students had already gone to sell pork...

By the time he graduates from university, the programmer has become a programmer...

At the beginning, the parents said that they chose finance, programming and other "hot" students, only to find out that the hot spots of the year have long since cooled down, and there are more competitors for a job than monkeys... But what can they do? ?

There is no regret medicine in this world.

Of course, for Fang Zheng, he is also different from his peers.At least he has another survival skill, and as long as he masters this skill well, it is not a problem to become a famous pianist in the world.

However, playing the piano is not as interesting as doing game planning. While typing on the keyboard, thinking about the player crying for father and mother, the scene of cutting hands and recharging in extreme pain is really great!

So in Fangzheng's view, Asuna's troubles are nothing. Back then, many college students were paid for by saving money from the village. The pressure was no greater than hers, and none of them collapsed.

Of course, everyone's tolerance is different, which is understandable.

"Parents will plan their children's life well. For example, parents of pianists want their children to learn piano, and doctors... Well, it seems that they don't recommend their children to become doctors. This is very normal. Because your parents have many times more life experience than you, they plan for you, and it is for your own good."

Having said this, Fangzheng closed his eyes, and then let out a light breath.

"However, you have to know that in the end, only you can choose how to live. Then, Asuna, have you thought about what you want to do in the future?"

"………I………"

"Yinglili has her own dream, and so does everyone else, Gabriel... Well, although it is not worth advocating to eat and wait to die, it is still a dream anyway, so, do you have your own dream?"

"…………"
