Stop water and do nothing

A square table with three bowls of noodles, Gao Zhihan sat in the middle, his son who denied his own birth sat on the left, and the... person who did not recognize his own son sat on the right?

"Eat it all, don't wait until it's cold." Gao Zhihan picked up the chopsticks and started by himself.Regardless of the bloated appearance of the three-layer cotton jacket covering the body, he is calm and composed.

Gao Zhiqi raised his eyes to look over, and Shang Qianshui happened to look over too, their eyes collided, then they both lowered their heads and stared back at the bowl of noodles in front of each other, silent.

"Thousands of water."

Hearing that father calling him, Shang Qianshui hastily responded, "Yes!"

"Do you like noodles?"

"..." I don't know how to answer.

"If you like it, you like it, if you don't like it, you don't like it, just tell me." The father said while sandwiching his face.

"No..." Feeling a scorching light hit his face, Shang Qianshui took a sneak peek, but saw Gao Zhiqi still staring down at his face, "I don't know..."

"Yeah," just because of the strong cold around, the face cools down quickly, so the father also ate quickly.In a blink of an eye, Gao Zhihan drank the soup in a few gulps, put down his chopsticks, "Qian Shui, I heard from Zhi Qi that you have only lived in Shangshui Palace since you were young?"

"Yes..." whispered.

"Staying at home alone, what do you do every day?"

"Cultivate inner strength, or read books..." During the conversation, Shang Qianshui sneaked a glance at Gao Zhiqi who was opposite him, but the other party buried his head in silence, "Sometimes I dance."

"That's good." Practicing martial arts diligently, increasing knowledge, and cultivating sentiments are all things that father wishes his son would do every day!Then he asked, "Is there any noodles in Shangshui Palace?"

"Ah?" Shang Qianshui thought for a while, "Rarely..."

The father said, "I don't know martial arts, but I have heard that people who practice internal skills must be pure-hearted, drink the dew every day, avoid love and desire, and keep their minds clear and calm, in order to make their skills brave and diligent, otherwise Just crazy?"

"Cough, cough, cough!"

On the other side, Gao Zhiqi swallowed the noodles bravely, not wanting to swallow too quickly, he choked.

Shang Qianshui obediently said, "It may not be possible to drink the wind and drink the dew, but I rarely eat."

The father asked again, "Aren't you hungry?"

"It's not easy to be hungry..."

"Is that easy to be emotional?"

"Ahem, ahem, ahem!" Gao Zhiqi was beating his chest fiercely by himself, thinking that the mouth had choked him so badly.

"Father has warned that Zhishui should not be emotional, so let me control my emotions on a daily basis and not be happy or angry at will..."

The air is getting colder.

"Well, then..." The father paused, only looked at Shang Qianshui and asked, "Did Zhi Qi lose control and hit you just now?"

"father!"

"Sit back, it's not time for you to say."

Gao Zhiqi slammed his ass back on the chair, took a big breath, and sucked up the noodles in the bowl that were almost frosty.

The inn propped up by a single log swayed a few times.

Shang Qianshui embraced Yong Ningzhu, looked down at the face in front of him, "He didn't hit me."

"So you lost control and hit him?"

"father!"

"Sit back."

Gao Zhiqi smashed his butt again, this time he simply choked up the cold bowl in front of Shang Qianshui.The cold air in the soup passed through the intestines, passed through the stomach, and rushed straight to the internal organs. It was so cold that the heart was piercing, and I couldn't help shivering a few times.

"I'm sorry..." Shang Qianshui lowered his head.

The smell of alcohol on his body was strong and lingering, even he felt embarrassed smelling it, and wished he could wash it off quickly...

The father saw that his face was tense, but his eyes were as pure as water, clear and bright, he felt relieved, so he didn't deliberately ask anything about the smell of alcohol.I only said that a slap can't make a sound, since someone bowed his head and apologized first, he can't care about it anymore.

"You are all people who know martial arts. If you want to fight, fight in a serious manner. Even if you fight to the death, blood will flow into rivers. I was embarrassed to watch the three-year-old scene just now!"

No matter who is right or wrong, anyway, the matter should be resolved.

The two responded in unison, "Yes..."

Gao Zhihan nodded, and asked Shang Qianshui the last question, "Is your father Shang Tianshui?"

Take a deep breath, the left and right are at the same time!

It can be seen that the power of this name is extraordinary...

"Yes..." Shang Qianshui's voice was extremely low.

"Ah."

A question is a question, so Gao Zhihan stopped talking about it.After collecting the bowls and chopsticks, he said to his son who was not his own, "Stop giving up, I will load my luggage into the truck later, I have to go out."

"Father, you..."

"I parked the van in the backyard, let's go."

Both Gao Zhiqi and Shang Qianshui were stunned.

. . .

At night, the sky is full of stars.

Gao Zhihan raised his head to the sky, flipping a copper water ladle in his hand, his expression seemed to be full of emotions.

"Father, the luggage is packed."

Gao Zhiqi came and stood behind him.

"Well... stop giving up, look..."

Gao Zhihan raised the water ladle and pointed it towards a string of stars in the northern sky.It's summer, and the dipper of the Heaven Dou is the guide, and the leader of the Heaven Dou is in the north.The sky is full of stars, but these seven are the most dazzling and bright...

"Qiqi, can you see those four stars?"

"It's the four stars on the Big Dipper." Gao Zhiqi said indifferently.

"You know their names?"

"The first is Tianshu, the second is Tianxuan, and then Tianji and Tianquan."

"Yeah," Gao Zhihan nodded, "Do you still know which heavenly official each star belongs to?"

Gao Zhiqi smiled when he heard the words, "There are no gods in the sky, only stars. There is no reincarnation in life, only one life."

"I knew you would say that." Gao Zhihan also smiled.

"Father..." The wind blew past, Gao Zhiqi took a deep breath, "Do you have something to say?"

"Stop giving up, there are gods on the stars... Those gods are also experiencing the ups and downs of the world, but they have unique talents. Their spirituality is innate, they can understand everything in the world, they are beautiful and moving, and they are unparalleled... They may be cold Low-key, or arrogant and conceited, but the audience always looks up to them, no matter where they are, they all carry a light that the night cannot hide..."

"But... Zhiqi, you are not a god, and you will never be."

Gao Zhiqi listened quietly, without speaking.

"Qiqi, you have no talent, no spirituality, and no light. You are as ordinary as a gravel in the ground. No matter how hard you struggle, you will not be like the stars in the sky, giving you faith."

"We also have to face the dark night. The persistence of the gods is a kind of light belief, while the persistence of the gravel is a kind of comfort...Stop giving up, do you understand?"

Gao Zhiqi still didn't speak, but he understood.

a long time……

"Father, why are you saying this?"

"I said this just to sprinkle some salt on your wounds and step on your feet no matter when and where!"

I can't laugh or cry, "Sand gravel also needs to eat, sleep and live, and he will spend his whole life in the world, so what else can he do... But... Dad, am I really that frustrated?"

"No matter how frustrated you are, I'm Gao Zhihan's son, no matter how frustrated you are, you only have one life, there is no reincarnation to play with the mystery of your life experience!"

"father……"

"A man doesn't cry easily, hold back those horse urine for me!"

"Father, you are so strange today."

Everyone is weird today...

Gao Zhihan smiled indifferently, looked at the copper ladle in his hand, and then threw it back to his son, "You chose this yourself, and if you choose, you will carry it with you for the rest of your life...even if it's just a grain of sand."

After saying that, he turned around and wanted to leave.

After withdrawing the copper water ladle, "Father, do you have anything else to say?"

The footsteps stopped, without turning around, "Who are the top four stars in the martial arts world?"

"A Gentleman Without a Sword, Dongfang Ji, Baili Xiangchen, Baili Meng, Qianshu Magician Ji Wuming..."

"And another one?"

Gritting his teeth, he burst out, "Zhishui cold demon Shang Tianshui..."

"World affairs, what a coincidence..." Gao Zhihan sighed and shook his head, "Go back and be with him, I'm going out to buy some flour, and I'll be back in two days."

"Father, you still have something to say!"

Three steps and stopped, still did not turn around, "Ziqi...you are not a god..."

"Neither is he, nor are we, nor are all of us!"

His voice echoed in the silent courtyard at night, and slowly rose to the sky with the wind, as if to shake the stars in that scene, but it was far away and insignificant...

Gao Zhihan sighed deeply, "He was born in the sky, there is a world of difference between you and him."

Clenched fists, finger bones turned white, "Isn't it just falling into the abyss? I've been falling for ten years, and I'm just short of the bottom..."

"Qiqi, how much do you know about him?"

His heart ached, and Gao Zhiqi couldn't speak anymore...

"A lot of things have happened to you, a lot of things have happened to him, and a lot of things have happened between you, but those nonsense doesn't mean that you are the sand that is falling into the abyss!"

"What?!" Gao Zhiqi was shocked and stunned.

"According to my observation of the astrology, you haven't even started the first hurdle to stop abandoning, but you want to fall into the abyss and make it to the bottom! Hmph, young people love whimsical ideas, it's frustrating, heh heh!"

This time, he kept walking and never looked back.

"Dad, wait! Dad, when will you observe the stars!?"

This is obviously blatantly fooling her into denying her own son, okay!

After talking about it, I feel sad and moved, but I just don't understand why the father wants to tell him these things? ?

. . .

Say goodbye...

In fact, Gao Zhiqi doesn't like to talk about the stars, because the stars are in the sky, and when he talks about the sky, the world will think of gods, but he is a gravel in the ground.

In fact, he doesn't mind what he is in the ground, even if it is a dust, he just really minds talking about the gods in the sky!

This feeling is wrong, but he can't change himself...

Perhaps, he urgently needs to discover a new meaning of life for himself, a meaning that will allow him to completely let go of the "celestial gods"...

The White Jade Ice Palace is majestic and elegant, with pavilions, towers and pavilions, carved railings and jade construction. Young Master Shang lives in it, day after day, silently, little by little, picking up the fragmentary happiness, buried deep in the heart, a In the deepest and deepest place, don't tell anyone...

The cold water of the lake is as clear as a scene, reflecting the stars in the sky.The green hills and mountains in the distance are endless, endless...

Someone outside the mountain has seen a pair of white and flawless feet dangling over the railing on the tall waterfall.

Someone outside the mountain has heard it, with a clear and soft voice, singing a song over and over again:

……

Yulou welcomes the sound of rain

Life is like a dream, the heart is clear and crystal clear

Beginning to step on the rice paddies, I don't understand how noisy the world is

Impermanence, turbulence, clouds, smoky city, rainy days, unclear

Wandering around I don't know where to look for the dancing shadow hidden in the mountain

Concentrating on the cloud bank and enviously looking forward to the bright flowers of Yaotai

Xinghan is so bright that it is difficult to make wishes

Holding on to the heart without realizing the regret and still laughing, the innocence is too romantic
