He Huan

Chapter 2

Tang Huan went to the suburbs, a very remote but very quiet place.

"What do you think of this place?" He asked Mingdu.

Mingdu said: "Very good." The mountains and rivers are beautiful here. Although it is remote, you can find a wide variety of birds, tall and lush trees, and there is a quietly flowing stream not far ahead. The stream is slightly golden in the sun. , I can guess that there must be lively fish in the stream.

Tang Huan nodded: "I also think this place is very good. It would be a blessing if I could live in seclusion here after quitting the rivers and lakes."

Mingdu frowned slightly, and said, "Are you going to quit the arena?"

Tang Huan glanced at him and said with a smile: "It will happen sooner or later, but it will definitely not be now, nor will it be in the past few years. In fact, there are not many people in the Tang Sect who can withdraw from the rivers and lakes happily. It can even be said There are only a handful of them. Not everyone will never miss. However, even if it is only a withdrawal caused by sequelae or slight disabilities, it is better than dying from missing the mission, and better than dying from poison."

Ming Du said: "Then why are you still in the Tang Sect? Why do you still have to do those tasks? With your ability, no matter what you do, you will do it very well."

Tang Huan said leisurely: "Yes. But, we come from a family of assassins. Assassins, thieves, and prostitutes, these are occupations that will always exist, because there will always be people who need such people."

"Amitabha." Mingdu sighed and said, "That's why there are people like little monks."

He closed his eyes and began to chant softly.

Tang Huan listened silently for a while, and when he was about to come to an end, he said, "Is it the Great Compassion Curse?"

Mingdu didn't open his eyes, but just recited softly, the last sentence "Nawu Great Merciful and Great Compassionate Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, I hope that those who sincerely recite this mantra will attain Nirvana" (Note: The original sentence is probably: Om, Xidiandu. Mandara. Bhataya, Sapoha. Here is an excerpt of the translated version.) After falling down, he replied: "Exactly. I hope this great compassion mantra can dissolve your hostility."

Tang Huan sighed: "You have followed me for more than a year, and you have read to me for more than a year, and I will still choose to perform the task. It seems that you Buddhas are not so godly."

Mingdu also sighed, and said: "Maybe it's because although you don't take human life seriously, so you can kill without any scruples, but you don't regard killing as a happy thing. You just carry out an order, and You don't feel anything about it."

Tang Huan said: "That's right. I have never understood why you always want to stop me. You can't stop me, and you should also know that it's either me or someone else. What's more, for me, killing people is as important as the doctor There is no difference between seeing a doctor, a swordsmith making swords, and a carpenter cutting wood."

Mingdu said: "Regardless of the reason, one should not kill people. Killing people is a crime."

Tang Huan said: "But I am a killer. The meaning of my existence is to kill people."

Mingdu said: "If that's the case, since you think I'm in the way, why don't you kill me, and it's over once and for all."

Tang Huan said: "I don't kill my family."

Ming Du said: "It turns out that there are still people in the Tang Sect who won't kill them."

"In the Tang Sect's rules, there are four not to kill," Tang Huan said with a sneer, "it's just that there are too few people in the world who meet the requirements."

"Oh?" Mingdu showed a thoughtful look, and said, "You never told me."

Tang Huan said: "I thought you would find out by yourself that the one I killed was the one who should be killed."

Mingdu shook his head, and said, "To me, there is no difference between people. I have vaguely heard of these four don't kills, but I don't know that the Tang Sect really has such rules?"

Tang Huan nodded slowly: "Not bad."

"But I don't know which four don't kill?"

Tang Huan said with a smile: "Since the master has heard of it, there should be no need for me to repeat it."

Ming Du's face as calm as water finally revealed a slight embarrassment: "When I heard about it at the time, I thought it was just a casual compilation by people in the Jianghu, so I didn't take it to heart. What's more, it has been a long time, and I really don't care about it. remembered."

Tang Huan smiled, but had no intention of explaining.He looked around for a while and then walked to the stream, apparently intending to catch fish to eat.

It was already noon, and the sun hung high above, unceremoniously spreading sunshine and scorching heat.However, whether it was Ming Du or Tang Huan, they were all wrapped in tightly packed clothes. Although they were not sweating profusely, they were indeed a little stuffy.

Mingdu saw that Tang Huan didn't say anything, so he also gave up the topic, walked up to him and stood still.

Tang Huan turned his face sideways, saw him, raised his head slightly, and said with a smile, "I know you don't want to eat fish, but there must be some water in this stream to drink, right?"

Mingdu squatted down silently, scooping up a handful of water to quench his thirst.In the hot summer, drinking some cool stream water is indeed very refreshing.

Tang Huan had already caught a fish while he was drinking water, and he didn't care about the water splashed all over his body. He picked up the fish's tail and threw the fish hard to the ground.

Mingdu narrowed his eyes and stopped looking at the scene of deprivation of life.

Handling a fish is simply overkill for Tang Men's dexterous hands.The meaning of this sentence is that Tang Huan turned that live fish into a clean fish fillet in a very short period of time.Looking at Mingdu's silent profile, he couldn't help but think: Mingdu is actually a good-looking man, but it's a pity he became a monk.Otherwise, I don't know how many little girls will feel palpitations.

When thinking about this, he seemed to have forgotten one thing. The reason why he performed the task more smoothly than others was because he had a face that made a woman's heart flutter when she saw it, so it seemed easy to gain trust up.

He said: "I observed it just now, and there are many trees here that bear fruit. As for whether it is poisonous or not, Master must be able to tell the difference, so I won't talk too much. But, I can remind you."

He paused, as if he didn't know whether the following sentence was appropriate to say, but he rarely hesitated: "The kind of fruit you like to eat - on the tree in the southeast."
