The master stopped, lowered his head, looked at his students, "I haven't forgotten!"
"Then I will never forget, I am your disciple, Master." Xia Buli immediately gave an affirmative answer.
The master didn't answer anything, but after a while, he burst out laughing and started to walk again, "I hope that when you think about it in the future, you can continue to strengthen your original intention."
"I won't forget." Xia Buli pouted dissatisfiedly, Master actually put the premise on the possibility that he would definitely forget.
But how could he forget?He has been taught by his master since he was a child and grew up!
...
The two walked for an unknown amount of time. Xia Buli made a new attempt this time, and found a thief who was about his own age. The other party had a dispute, and was caught by the victim (wife), and escaped together before being sent to deal with, mixed into the other party's den of thieves, and gradually increased friendship with the other party.
First listen to their voices, first mention a few words on major issues, mention these thieves, let them increase their trust in themselves, and then increase their right to speak, so that they feel that their views are indeed correct, It took a while to make subtle changes step by step, and finally succeeded in changing a group of thieves.
Let them change from the original thieves to a group of righteous thieves who work for a hundred days and steal the ill-gotten wealth of the unjust at night.
He knew that he couldn't completely change a group of people who had formed a mindset, but at least he could make their behavior more just.
Let them change from thieves to heroes.
The 840th [-]th step towards Yuelao: Tuogu
After Xiabuli mastered the so-called mimesis in Master's mouth, he began to have contact with all kinds of people in a real sense. He knew the code of conduct of merchants; he knew the basic needs of hard labor; he knew how hawkers operate; Knowing the woman's longing for her family and children...
Being in contact with all kinds of people also made him no longer as simple and naive as he was at the beginning, and he took many things for granted.
On the path, watching people gallop past on horseback, Xia Buli looked thoughtfully at the back of the person going away, and finally asked a sentence: "Master, you said that the birth of the emperor star can really change the world." Is it a chaotic world? Can he really change the entire world with the power of one person?"
"He can't. Although I said he is the emperor star descending into the world, I'm just talking about an omen. He is a human being, just like you, an ordinary person. Frustrated and sad because the difficulties cannot be solved."
"Then why are we still looking for him? Since his fate is not predestined, why do we have to find an illusory hope instead of trying to create it ourselves?"
The Master smiled and said: "Everyone has a position that everyone needs to stand on, and everyone's ideals, beliefs, hopes, and things to see are also different. The child's identity and position have been predetermined since birth.
He has advantages that we do not have. He can use the advantages and resources he has had since birth to achieve many things much earlier than us.
We came to him not simply to borrow the power he was born with, but also to guide him so that he would not abuse what he was born with. "
"Everyone is not born the same? What can he do more than us? Strength? Brain?" Xia Buli doesn't feel that he is inferior to others, and he is very unconvinced by this statement.
"He has more resources and responsibilities than us. We are born freely and can freely make choices for our future. Although we will encounter all kinds of troubles, we have the power to choose. I can choose you as my student, and you You can choose where you want to go and what you want to do.
But he can't, since he was born, he has to be restricted because of his parents and relatives. He has many things that we don't have, such as identity, power, wealth, contacts, etc. These are all resources, and he was born because of his parents. All these are good things, but they are also the existence that restricted his freedom from the beginning.
His choices are narrow, because others have already determined his future life for him.
He has to sacrifice something for everything he doesn't know. He can't choose the things and people he likes, and he can't express his opinions and emotions freely. His every move is watched and corrected. Living in the rules and regulations, he will either be raised badly, or become the existence that others expect him to be.
He can sit on the supreme position more easily than ordinary people, but he can't see the truth at the bottom. All the news is told to him by others. He can have his own thoughts, but his vision can't jump out of others Within the range set for him, he can't hear the voices other than those around him.
We need to find him, and before he is blocked, bring him to the outside world, let him hear, see, think, experience, and grow by himself, not everything that others tell him, others think I want him to understand. "
Xia Buli frowned, remained silent for a moment, and suddenly said: "So, master, you don't want to help me find a backer at all, but you want to take me to save the child who might be regarded as the emperor who came into the world?"
"Did you react so quickly this time?" The master looked surprised, making Xia Buli feel offended, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help twitching, "Master, in your mind, I am How stupid is that?"
"Stupidity doesn't count, it's just that sometimes I like to dig into corners, so I always miss something." The master explained a sentence so straightforwardly, but he said it in a black line.
Before Xia Buli could retort, he pointed to the ground and continued, "Otherwise, why would you miss this?"
Xia Buli followed the direction of the Master's finger, and there were bloodstains on the ground, spreading all the way to the way they came.
Xia Buli's face suddenly changed, he thought of the knight galloping past him and his master just now, he couldn't help but glanced in the direction where the other party disappeared, a little annoyed, "Master, why are you waiting for someone to go away, and you still have to remind me?" once?"
"The other party didn't go far, but even if you found out just now and went up to help, the other party couldn't hold on. He was supported by a belief. If you found out immediately just now, at most you can make the other party run less. Some roads will make the other party less bumpy. In addition, you will be cut by the other party.
In this case, it is better to wait for the other party to completely lose strength, and then go to find him, and remind you, lest you not observe the details. "
Xia Buli wanted to refute, but the experience of following the Master told him that what the Master said was not inaccurate.
He hesitated on the spot, took two steps in the direction where the other party was driving away, stopped, and looked back at his master, "Then...then shall we go there? What can I do for the other party now?"
"If you can save a child, you can also let that person die in peace." The Master's words gave Xia a reason to go and have a look.
But he didn't expect the master to mention the child, and asked as he walked forward, "Master, did you see that adult with the child just now?"
"I didn't see the child, but I could guess from his posture that he was holding a child in his arms, and that child was more important to him than his own life, so his riding posture was very The distortion made him very uncomfortable, but he still had to bend his body and try to open one hand to create a safe space for the child in his arms."
Xia Buli recalled the scene he had seen before. At that time, the posture of the rider was indeed a bit strange. His body was arched and his arms were half bent. He didn't notice it at the time. Now that the teacher reminded him, he suddenly understood what was going on.
This made his pace quicker, "If something happens to the knight, won't the child fall off the horse? Master, let's hurry up?"
"Don't worry, since that person wants to protect the child regardless of the pain in his body, he will definitely consider the consequences of throwing the child to the ground if he dies."
The master is very calm, no matter how hard Xia Buli pulls him forward, his steps are still unhurried.
But even though Xia Buli knew that the master was right, he was still very worried that such a little child would fall off the horse and be trampled by the horse's hoof.
But his worry didn't last long until he saw the horse coming towards them.
Xia Buli couldn't help but stop his steps, and looked back at his master in bewilderment.
The master seemed to know what he was thinking, and said softly: "Did you notice it when we came over there just now? The village over there has long since disappeared, except for us and the knight with the child along the way." Besides, there is no one else.
The knight should know that he is dying, and wanted to entrust the farmer, but found that the farmer over there had been destroyed.When he passed by, he should have seen us on the side of the road. He had no choice but to gamble and entrust the child to us. "
"He wants to entrust the child...to us?" Xia Buli pointed at the tip of his nose, apparently not expecting this to be the case.
At this time, the horse had already approached, and the other party did not give them time to speak, and had already stretched out his bloody hand, "Please... please..."
The master stretched out his hand, and when the other party was about to fall off the horse, he supported him, and asked softly, "What do you want me to do?"
Xia Buli found that no matter how softly the Master spoke, the voice was still heard clearly in his ears.
The other party should have heard it too. He lifted his dirty face, tried to squeeze out a bit of begging, and opened his cloak, revealing the sleeping baby under the cloak. He spoke again, his tone was weaker than before , with many worries: "Can...can you please...this child...this child...he is...is...no...no...who...nobody...he...just...just a baby...normal...please...please...please... Find...find someone's house...OK...OK...OK..."
The other hand held by the master grasped the clothes of the master with all his strength, and held it very tightly. His eyes were fixed on the master, as if he would not let go until the other party gave him an answer.
"You can give that child to my student. I brought up my student myself." The master did not answer the knight directly, but looked aside, and his eyes fell on the little boy who was almost ignored. on a seven-year-old child.
The rider subconsciously turned his head, and then he noticed the child who was looking at him worriedly. This child seemed to be just an ordinary child. His eyes did not have the hostility and gloom in the eyes of other children he had seen. He was still thinking about himself as a stranger. Worry…
Why is there such a child in the troubled times...?
No... Maybe this is God's favor for the young master... Such a child... makes people feel at ease...
The knight struggled to fall off the horse, but still protected the child in his arms. Holding his breath, he half-kneeled and handed the child to Xia Buli tremblingly.
He didn't say anything, and he didn't have the strength to say anything more. He was afraid that after he let out his last breath, he wouldn't be able to see what he wanted to see.
Xia Buli was affected by his actions, his childish face became more solemn, he stretched out his hands, and hugged the child cautiously.
But the moment his hands approached, the knight's hands stopped shaking, and his expression became solemn, with too many emotions in his eyes that he couldn't understand or interpret.
The baby seemed to have sensed something, and when Xia Buli's hand came out, it just stretched out its thin little hand and grabbed Xia Buli's two fingers.
Xia Buli was stunned for a moment, but the knight couldn't help laughing as he watched, crying while laughing, just knelt like that and didn't move anymore.
The 840th and second step to achieve Yuelao: put on a pose
On the way to find the "Emperor Star", Xia Buli and his master met a seriously injured knight with a baby.
They didn't know what happened to the soldier on horseback, whether it was good or bad, since the child was handed over to Xia Buli, to him, the child was no longer anyone else, this was his younger brother. Next, it is necessary to assume the responsibility of taking care of him growing up.
Xia Buli looked at the immature baby, stretched out his other hand, and held him in his arms.
"Give him a name?" The master looked at the child who looked a little malnourished, stretched out his hand and poked the other's face, and suggested.
Xia Buli thought about it seriously, and then said: "Let's call it abandonment!"
"Are you angry? What are you angry about? You just want to be a father for no reason?" The master pretended to be silly to tease his own disciple.
Xia Buli couldn't help but rolled his eyes at Master, "Master, this is the name I really thought about!"
"Are you angry?" The master continued to tease.
Xia Buli immediately explained, "It's not that Qi, the surname is Abandoned Abandoned, and the name is Crying Cry."
The Master smiled and said, "Why did you choose such a name?"
Xia Buli held up the baby and said: "He grew up with us, he is a person who was abandoned by this era just like us, our thinking is different from most people in this troubled world, I was influenced by you, and he will also be born in the future." He will definitely be affected by us, I hope that when he finds himself abandoned by this troubled world, he will not cry, but can wipe away his tears in the troubled times, stick to his own morality and go on."
The master reached out and touched his head, without making any comments at this time.
Xia Buli did not forget the purpose of himself and Master going all the way to Zhao this time, hugged the child back into his arms, turned his head and said: "Master, before we find Emperor Xing, can we put this child in a safe place first?" ?”
"You can just carry it on your body." The master smiled and took out a set of clothes from the backpack. With a little nimble movement of his fingers, he made a sling that is convenient for carrying the baby, put the baby in it, and handed it to Xia Buli. .
He was inseparable from surprise, and carried the child behind his back.
Abandoning Buqi also seemed to understand the hardships of the current environment, and did not cry at all, obediently lying on Xia Buli's back, closed his eyes and fell asleep again.
His sensibility made the master touch his chin, and sighed as if recalling some tragic experience: "This child is much better than you were then."
Xia Buli twitched his lips, "Only those who are lively are active. If you don't cry, you are quieter than me."
The master smiled without retorting, and changed the topic to other directions, diverting a lot of Xia Buli's attention.
The big and small entered Zhao's capital, and they unconsciously relaxed a little. Although the atmosphere in the city was sluggish, it was far from as cold and lonely as in other areas.
Along the way, decline and death can be seen in many places. Although there are unaffected villages and towns, anyone with a discerning eye can feel the tension of the situation and the panic of the people.
Compared with those places, the people in the capital are obviously in good spirits, and Xia Buli and Master can still see a few people with high fighting spirit.
Whether it is a man or a woman here, they all wear armor, carry weapons, and have a tiger face, walking on the street with a particularly domineering appearance.
When I saw the master and two children coming in through other city gates farther away from the battlefield, I was still a little wary.
But when his eyes fell on the two children, his expression couldn't help but relax again.
Xia Buli watched from the side, and asked thoughtfully in a low voice, "Master, is this a kind of mimicry?"
"Yes, they analyze our status through our clothing. Although I don't have much armed appearance, in their eyes, I am a disciple of one of the hundred schools. In the current structure of the hundred schools, they have always occupied It is quite normal for me to be wary of an important position.
But you are different. For them, children of a few years old are the least threatening, and babies, in their view, are completely non-threatening.
And the clothes you are wearing are the clothes of Taoist disciples. You dress fairly and formally, unlike those thieves or sons of robbers. In addition, you have been educated and grown up, so your own demeanor is different from ordinary people.
It's easier for them to see you as an upper-class kid.As for me, as a teacher, if I can bring a child like you and a small burden, I will naturally no longer pose any threat. "
Hearing this, Xia Buli immediately grinned and asked, "So, is it that the master entrusted me with the blessing of not crying?"
"Yeah, I'll pay you to eat the food you like today. But don't order too much food, your wife and I have limited wealth."
"Master, are you a rooster made of bronze? I'm only seven years old, how much can I eat? Most of the time, don't you eat all the food I ordered by yourself?" He rolled his eyes at his wife.
The master's face is getting thicker and thicker, "I'm helping you eat, to prevent you from wasting food, and also to control your diet, so I have to do it."
"You're right, let's go! I'm starving to death!" Xia Buli rubbed his stomach, and wisely chose not to continue discussing such things with his master.
The two entered the hall, and as soon as they sat down on their knees, there was a commotion outside. When they heard that Qin was coming again, the capital immediately entered a state of martial law.
When Qin Zhen came, they all became excited again, and they almost screamed and rushed out to fight Qin Bing hand-to-hand.
Even the owner of the small shop was extremely excited at this time, and excitedly blessed the soldiers who left, and invited them to dinner when they came back.
As for the rest of the people, the shopkeeper doesn't have such a good temper and attitude. Recently, the other seven countries have always sent people to investigate Zhao's intelligence. people from the other six countries.
For this kind of people, people who were born and bred in Zhao country will not maintain the good attitude before the war, and they will start to drive them away without saying a word.
Many people are angry!But in other people's territory, it was still wartime, and there was really no way to do anything to these locals, so they could only go to the dignitaries to complain.
The shopkeeper was happy to see the unwilling faces of those who were driven out, but when he came to Xiabuli's table, he opened his mouth and was speechless again.
Master, Xia Buli, and Abandoned Buqi all raised their heads to look at the shopkeeper at this time, and the direct glance made the shopkeeper feel like his heart was about to stop.
What a handsome trio!
Judging from his demeanor and temperament, this young Taoist is obviously different from those who came to inquire about the news. Consciously let go of his guard.
And the children on the side were different from the children he had seen.
In his mind, the children of noble families all have a sense of superiority. Although they behaved modestly and politely, there was a sense of aloofness all over their bodies.
And the children of ordinary families are either too honest and easy to be deceived, or too cunning, and when they roll their eyes, they seem to have countless ghost ideas.
But the child in front of him has the same demeanor as the young man beside him, but he is just a child, and he will not restrain himself, so it can be clearly seen that he has a noble aura, but he does not feel superior at all.
And the child next to him didn't rub his fingers like other babies, but looked at him quietly, his eyes were full of curiosity, clear and bright eyes, when people looked at him, their hearts were full. All melted away.
"Is your store going to close to avoid disaster? I'll go out soon." When the shopkeeper forgot to speak, the master spoke first. He had a gentle attitude, with a broad expression of "I understand, I cooperate", and After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he went to urge the child beside him, "Don't leave, let's go."
"Yeah." The seven-year-old child is very well-behaved. With a word from the master, he immediately picked up the child who had just been put down on his back. His small body shook slightly, and then stabilized quickly. He smiled strangely at the shopkeeper. He smiled and said politely, "Goodbye, uncle." He went to put on his shoes, without leaving any theory behind.
