Siheyuan: Silly Pillar is Kind

At this moment, Squad Leader Wang was also staring at He Yuzhu silently. He knew very well what the final choice would be for this upright and kind man in front of him.

The reason why Huang Wenlong was mentioned first is simply because this path is relatively easier.

As for others, they need to pay more and break greater bottom lines to achieve success.

Besides, why do you need to talk about morality if you want to get promoted and make money?

Haven’t you noticed that those officials euphemistically call this behavior “political tactics”? In fact, to put it bluntly, they are just using whatever means to find a high-sounding excuse for themselves!

At this moment, Sha Zhu finally realized that he had to make an important decision at the crossroads of his life!

Sha Zhu couldn't help but recall his experience of selling buns. At that time, he didn't run away because he was afraid of being beaten by He Daqing when he returned home after selling all the buns. The real reason was actually for money!

He still remembers the scene clearly: a little boy in a dress, chewing a popsicle, stood silently by and watched him, while he loudly sold steamed buns. However, the strange thing was that the little boy just watched quietly from beginning to end, without any expression or emotional fluctuations.

Finally, the little boy got on a car and left, but the calm look in his eyes was deeply imprinted in Sha Zhu's mind. He couldn't help wondering, why was the child's eyes so calm, as lifeless as a pool of stagnant water?

Ever since my father left, I have had to rely on myself to struggle and grope my way forward.

I worked hard to learn how to talk and act like an adult and did my best to make a living.

Finally, I married my first wife in my life, but when I was promoted and accumulated wealth, she chose to move out.

Maybe it was because of her inner fear. After all, when I was making $27.50, she thought she was above her station.

Now that I am getting richer, she is naturally worried. As for the affair between me and Wang Li, she must know it very well, but she has never revealed it.

Thinking of this, I can't help but think of Song Bing, the daughter of the secretary.

I remember Lao Wang once said that she would definitely marry a man with a good background in the future. So what kind of person is considered to have a good background?

Does the boy who passed by while eating a popsicle count?

Without a doubt, he definitely was. That boy could easily enjoy things that I couldn't even imagine without any effort.

Why is this happening? Haven’t we entered a new era? Are the concepts of fair competition and equality for all just empty talk?

It turns out that nothing has changed!

It is just that those who have no moral bottom line wantonly oppress those who have conscience and morality. If a person loses his moral sense, others will be afraid of him.

Only when you are in a high position can you do what you really love.

Wealth is like a master key that can solve most of the problems in life, but why is there still the remaining one percent that cannot be overcome?

The reason is simple - you don’t have enough money, and your power and status are not at their peak!

What immortality, what god and devil system? If I live worse than a dog, why should I yearn for immortality? Do I have to work for others all my life? In this case, I, He Yuzhu, might as well give up all this as soon as possible!

At this moment, He Yuzhu came to his senses and finally understood what he really desired deep in his heart.

He stared at squad leader Wang with a determined look and said solemnly: "Please tell me the details about that girl!"

Looking at He Yuzhu's unwavering expression, Squad Leader Wang smiled with satisfaction and relief.

Looking back to the days when I was a young apprentice, I had to respectfully carry the shit basin to my master every day.

Even if the master got angry and whipped him, he could only grit his teeth and endure it silently, not daring to utter a word of complaint.

Later on one occasion, the master accidentally made a mistake and was beaten mercilessly by his boss.

Looking at the master in front of me who was once as majestic as a mountain but now curled up like a pitiful dog and being beaten, the faith in my heart collapsed in an instant.

At that moment, I realized that Master was not omnipotent and indestructible; on the contrary, he also had an extremely fragile side.

Since then, I began to re-examine Master and have a new perspective on everything around me.

In order to change the status quo, I racked my brains and came up with a solution: first try to seduce the shopkeeper's daughter, and then use her to help me achieve my goal.

In this way, I successfully recruited many people who came from poor backgrounds like me and made them willing to work for me for free.

As time went by, the shopkeeper's daughter gave birth to child after child for me, and the birth of each new life seemed to be a great victory in my life.

At this moment, when I saw He Yuzhu, I suddenly understood a truth - only by breaking the mountain in other people's hearts can we truly achieve success and satisfaction.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel happy for myself, and at the same time I was ecstatic that He Yuzhu could understand this truth.

So I said to him excitedly: "Okay, write it down..."

After saying goodbye to Squad Leader Wang, Sha Zhu rode his bicycle quickly towards the agreed location.

After arriving at the destination, he saw Lin Guorui who had been waiting there.

The two smiled at each other, then walked to a secluded place and began practicing tacitly.

First, Lin Guorui demonstrated all the movements completely, and Sha Zhu followed him attentively.

In the end, Lin Guorui will point out the areas where Sha Zhu has not done well enough and give him corrections and guidance.

When Sha Zhu had fully mastered these movements, Lin Guorui taught him a unique breathing method.

Next, the two of them immersed themselves in their own practice, silently and repeatedly practicing those movements.

As Sha Zhu practiced, he naturally applied the breathing method he had just learned.

Gradually, he was surprised to find that every time he completed an movement, the qi and blood in his body could actually penetrate into the deeper parts.

This feeling is as if the body has self-awareness, and every part becomes extremely sensitive and as nimble as a finger.

So that's how it is! Sha Zhu suddenly realized: Every time you practice Qigong, you should combine it with proper body movements. This way, Qi and blood can flow more smoothly to all the extremities of the body and break through the blocked blood vessels in the body more easily.

The intoxicating tingling sensation is just like the slight itching caused by the healing of a scar, making one addicted to it and unable to extricate themselves.

Lin Guorui, who was not far away, frowned tightly, with a hint of worry and confusion in his eyes.

He keenly observed He Yuzhu's every move, trying to decipher the hidden meaning. He Yuzhu's movements were swift and powerful, and each move was full of determination, as if he wanted to tear apart everything around him.

"This He Yuzhu was still kind-hearted yesterday. Otherwise, how could he generously teach me that extremely precious martial arts just because I lost an arm? However, today, not only is his attack fierce, but he is also extremely fierce. There must be a reason for this change. I guess he must have encountered something that greatly reduced the kindness in his heart!" Lin Guorui thought to himself.

When He Yuzhu was exhausted and sweating from the fierce battle, Lin Guorui stepped forward and handed him a glass of water.

He Yuzhu gave a foolish smile, took the water and drank it all in one gulp, with a comfortable sound coming from his throat.

"He Yuzhu, do you know how many Japanese devils I have killed?" Lin Guorui suddenly asked, his voice deep and magnetic, like a sharp sword piercing people's hearts.

These words were like a magic key, instantly igniting the fire of curiosity deep in He Yuzhu's heart. Which boy doesn't like to hear those thrilling battlefield stories? At this moment, He Yuzhu's eyes lit up, and he urged with expectation: "Hurry up! Tell me about the battlefield!"

Lin Guorui looked at He Yuzhu's excited look, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile. He knew that this method was most effective against those naughty guys, but he didn't expect that it would still be so effective against the honest and upright boy in front of him.

"Not counting those killed with guns, I have killed no less than ten people with knives alone!"

Lin Guorui looked at He Yuzhu's eyes full of respect and admiration, smiled slightly and continued: "Whether it is killing one person, or killing more than a dozen people like me, or even just killing a chicken, some changes will occur deep in your heart. Many comrades-in-arms could not bear this kind of psychological pressure, so they stood up and rushed to the enemy camp without hesitation, and finally died tragically under the enemy's gun."

Hearing this, He Yuzhu couldn't help but frowned and asked, "So, Lao Lin, do you think there's something wrong with my mentality?"

Lin Guorui shook his head and replied, "I can't say for sure. After all, I can't see through your inner world. You are the only one who knows what happened."

He paused, then continued in a firm tone: "But no matter when and where, as long as we can hold on to the obsession in our hearts, that is enough. For me, this obsession is to defend the motherland. Therefore, no matter how many enemies I kill, I know that they are enemies that invade our territory. Even if I retreat to the second line, I will still stick to my post and defend every inch of land under our feet. So He Yuzhu, what is your belief?"

Sha Zhu muttered in a low voice: "My belief? The belief that I had just established has become so dim and dull under the sharp eagle-like gaze of Lin Guorui. It is as if the secret hidden deep in my heart has been exposed nakedly, making it difficult to speak..." His lips trembled several times, but in the end he was unable to express what he was thinking.

Lin Guorui looked at the scene in front of him, his mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a smile, then slowly opened his mouth and said: "He Yuzhu, I have also gone to the organization to report the situation because I felt that my salary was too low, but is it wrong to do so?"

Sha Zhu responded without hesitation: "Of course it's right! What's wrong with striving to fight for your legitimate rights and interests?"

At this time, Lin Guorui exuded a strong murderous aura. His eyes were as sharp as lightning. He stared at He Yuzhu and said, "That being said, those landlords and officials in the past were also desperately pursuing their own interests. But who really cared about the interests of ordinary people like us? How different is the way they look at us from the way they look at cattle and horses?"

After a brief pause, Lin Guorui continued, "However, ever since that bright red flag was erected, I clearly remember that my back has never been as straight as it is now. When I encounter something that I can't decide, I just need to look at the color on the flag, and everything will have the answer!"

"But I have a lot of other thoughts in my mind..." He Yuzhu muttered to himself.

Lin Guorui smiled lightly and replied, "That's your own business. You have your own ideas, and that's not something I need to consider. For me, doing a good job as a security guard is the most important thing. As for my personal ideal, it is to defend my homeland and safeguard my country! Hahaha... I won't say anymore. I'm leaving." After that, he turned and left.
