Chapter 50 On Heroes
When the table and bamboo mat were placed on the edge of the cliff, Luo Junwang sat down in the left seat first, turned back and waved his hand in Shifang: "You are not afraid of poison. Are you afraid of poisoning my wine and dishes?"
Shifang hummed, and naturally did not show weakness, so he strode forward and sat down cross-legged on the right.
King Luo raised the jade bottle and poured wine for the ten directions. He raised his glass and said, "Heroes cherish heroes. Although I have repeatedly told my subordinates that you are not smart, those are all swindling words. In fact, Luo likes you very much.
"Friend?" Shifang snorted, "It was a friend who let go of Diao Han Fairy and Master Xuansheng, and gave up the interference in the Tiannan Xiuzhen Realm."
Luo Junwang frowned and said, "You boy is really confused. Do you think this is possible? We are going to have a martial arts competition in two days. Before that, let's put down our predeterminations. Isn't it elegant to drink and chat?
Shifang put down his glass: "What can I talk to you about?"
Luo Junwang drank a cup of himself and said with a smile, "What's wrong with you to talk about? People who can be heroes are somewhat similar. I will definitely have something in the same place as you.
Shifang turned his head and looked behind him. He saw that the cold-blooded alliance people had also prepared wine and vegetables for the practitioners of Tiannan, but those people used their own wine and vegetables in addition to their tables and bamboo mats.
"You are a hero, I am not." Shifang was relieved and drank a glass of wine.
Luo Junwang laughed and said, "Are you not a hero? Then how can you order these many people to do against me? You don't want to be a hero? So what do you want to do? Play the world with the beauty in your arms?"
Shi Fang said, "You are so vulgar. Not everyone in the world likes to be an emperor and kills people like you."
Luo Junwang shook his head and said, "You're wrong. Do you think I really want to be the Lao Shizi Emperor? Let me tell you a story."
"Once upon a time, there was a farmer outside Chang'an City. The two farmers had a child. Although their parents were hard-working farmers, although they worked hard and had no money, they were safe and happy. Originally, such a family can also live a plain and happy life. But later, when Huang Chao was in chaos, the child's family was destroyed, and his parents were separated in the war. Children begged for food. After going through several countries, they are used to the people of the world living in deep trouble because of the war. Children want to change something, but there is nothing they can do. Later, he was lucky enough to meet Chen Qian's ancestor. His ancestor liked him to be smart and clever, so he accepted him as an apprentice and passed on the art of the immortal family. In less than two years, the child has learned all the skills taught by his ancestors. The ancestor didn't want to be pestered anymore and wanted to find a place to sleep, so he left the child and drifted away.
"The teenager later became successful in Taoism, so he traveled out of the mountains. But the world is still in war. Now that the teenager has the ability, he wants to do something to change the current situation. So he looked around for like-minded friends. At the same time, he also saw that the world of cultivation was as chaotic as the secular world, always fighting endlessly.
"Then you established a cold-blooded alliance? Then kill people everywhere for evil? Shifang had already heard that the teenager he said was himself, so he couldn't help laughing.
Luo Junwang frowned and said, "The cold-blooded alliance is just the name given by outsiders. We call ourselves Xianmeng. Now the Xianmeng has helped the State of Song to unify the Central Plains, allowing the people to live and work in peace and contentment. It also unified most of the world of cultivation, and everyone lived in harmony and shared misfortunes and blessings. Isn't this a good deed? The ancients said: Those who achieve great things do not care about trifles, and the Bodhisattva said: Whoever I don't go to hell will go to hell. Luo spent his whole life of his youth fighting for the sake of all living beings in the world, so he killed a man, but in the end he became the devil in your mouth and repeatedly resisted me.
Shifang said, "You said that to help the unification of China and gather the world of cultivation and live in harmony, these things are really good. But not everyone in the world wants to be managed by others. Tiannan Xiuzhen has its own way of existence. You want to merge hard, isn't it the work of the wicked?
Luo Junwang waved his hand and smiled, "Forget it. You and I have different ambitions, so this duel. Come on, drink."
The two of them drank another cup. A gust of wind blew and blew away the clouds in the sky. Shifang pointed to the white clouds that had just condensed and formed but have now been blown away: "What do you think about life?"
Luo Junwang sighed and said, "Song about wine, the geometry of life, such as the morning dew, and the days are more bitter."
Shifang also pointed to the low and towering mountains, and said in the vast wilderness, "There are rules in heaven and earth. Although you and I are practitioners of truth, our life will come to an end. At that time, you manage the world by making tough rules and treaties. But you're not there that day? The people who have become immortals in this world have disappeared. They must have gone to overseas fairy islands or left the world to practice in the fairyland. Even if you can cultivate the realm of immortals, can you still care about this world again?
Luo Junwang closed his eyes slightly and looked up to the sky and took a deep breath, as if he was smelling the breath of heaven and earth, but did not answer the questions of Shifang. He just said, "What do you think is a hero?"
"Hero?" Shi Fang thought for a long time and said with a serious look, "Those who practice the way for heaven, those who are for the country and the people, and those who are sincere are all heroes."
Luo Junwang said, "There are also powerful people who are proud of the world. Life geometry, life geometry. Life is endless, and those who are not afraid of obstacles and dangers, are not afraid of loneliness and loneliness, and know that they can't do it. Even if someone laughs at it, even if it is difficult and lonely, there are always people who do things that others dare not think of. These people are the heroes in my heart.
Shi Fang thought about what Luo Junwang said and smiled, "So, you are indeed a hero."
Luo Junwang smiled and said, "You are also a hero. Knowing that he could not defeat me, he couldn't get the situation back, but he still came to fight with me.
Shifang saluted him for the first time: "It is impossible to persuade you to give up the Tiannan Xiuzhen Realm, but I will never let you get involved in the Tiannan Xiuzhen Realm."
Luo Junwang drank all the way: "What should be done will eventually be done. As long as it is decided, there is no need to think about it. You and I can drink freely these two days.
Shifang took a sip and said, "Your wine is much worse than my brother Fu's hidden wine."
Luo Junwang curled his lips and smiled, "You said Fu Yuntian? Can you two drink? This is a hundred years of aging in the court that Zhao Kuangyin wants.
Shifang took another sip and shook his head: "Wine is good, but it tastes tasteless."
Luo Junwang laughed and scolded, "You are belittling me. It's tasteless to drink with me. Is it smelly to drink with beautiful women? By the way, what stage have you and Miss Yingyue developed?
Shifang said unhappily, "Brother Luo, Yingyue is my good friend. Don't talk nonsense about her, or I won't drink with you."
Luo Junwang clapped his knees and laughed. He pointed to Shifang and said, "You, you, you can't even enjoy it. There are flowers that can be folded straight and must be folded. Don't wait for the flowers to fall empty. There are beautiful people who pour their hearts into you, but you refuse people thousands of miles away. What do you mean by living?
Shifang said, "I already have a wife, how can I use my love indiscriminately?"
"Are you talking about Shangguan Cherry?" Luo Junwang listened and shook his head: "Although I have never seen her, I heard that she sleeps peacefully in your magic weapon. I don't know when I will wake up. What do you mean by love? Is it love to be single-hearted? I like spring flowers today and the autumn moon tomorrow. Am I using my love indiscriminately? Life must be full of joy. As long as you like me, I would like to have anything messy or not.
Shifang said angrily, "If the person you like falls in love with others, what do you think?"
Luo Junwang smiled and said, "I don't have anyone I like, and I don't like anyone who likes me." After saying that, a lonely look flashed by and sighed, "I don't know what it feels like. Is this a blessing or a curse? If I had been trapped by love, I might not have made such a big career. When I finish my retirement, it's time to find a girl. Seriously, if you don't like Miss Yingyue, why don't you give it to me?
Shi Fang suddenly got up, put down the glass, turned around and left.
Luo Junwang hurriedly said, "Hey, can't I do it if I don't talk about her?"
Shifang remembered something and came back to sit down. Luo Junwang smiled and said, "That's right. Luo hasn't drunk so much for a long time."
Shifang had a drink with him and said with a serious look, "I beg you, I don't know if you will agree?"
"Oh? Just say it."
Shifang took out six golden lotus from the dragon ring: "If I am defeated or dead, you promise me to become a fairy or find a way to help me save Taoer."
Luo Junwang said without hesitation, "Okay, no problem."
Shifang said, "If you lose, what can I do to help you?"
Luo Junwang shook his head and said, "I have a lot of things that I can't look back. A man doesn't have so many trivial things. Besides, I'm confident that I won't lose to you."
Shifang smiled and said, "Okay, I'll give you another drink."
Luo Junwang laughed, and the two of them had another cup.
Note: Chen Qian, a famous Taoist teacher in the early Song Dynasty. The word Tunan, the name is Fu Yaozi, and the name is Mr. Xiyi. He is often respected as Chen Qian's ancestor, Xiyi's ancestor, etc. Later generations called it "Chen Qian's ancestor", "Sleeping Fairy" and so on. Wei Tai said that he "or slept for three years."
Here, Wei Tai is very interesting. His sister is a famous female lyricist in the Northern Song Dynasty, who was sealed as the wife of Daoguo; his brother-in-law Zeng Bu was the prime minister. This man has been aggressive since he was a child. He beat the examiner half to death in the exam, so he was never admitted. But this is both humanistic and martial arts, and it is well-read. He has written several books, several of which are still in the name of others. Book records: Wei Tai, who is witty, is especially good at talking about court and opposition anecdotes. Good at braiding, talking and laughing with people, there is no one who can stop his words. During the reign of Emperor Huizong Chongguan, Minister Zhangton praised his talent and wanted to resign. In his later years, he stayed at home, relying on his brother-in-law's situation and rampaged in the countryside, and the people were deeply dissatisfied.
From these words, it can be seen that Wei Tai is both human and military, rich and powerful, and often beats others. I think such a person must belong to the chivalrous people who hate evil and are chivalrous and righteous. The demeanor of the ancients is desirable.
