[Original God_Zhong Li's personal orientation] Changhe

How many clouds to see, how many mountains to walk, it is not the size of the ability that determines these.We are not the immortals in those story books, we all move mountains and fill seas.If you want me to say, it's the level of eyesight. "

"You need to be able to read, understand?" The swordsman stretched out the middle finger of his right index finger in front of his eyes, moved back and forth, and repeated, "The important thing is to be able to read."

He said that there are thousands of swords and soldiers in the world, but there are very few who are proficient in all kinds of martial arts. Like me, I only know how to use swords.But no matter what kind of weapons, they all pay attention to "like the arms and fingers". This is a very common awareness in Liyue's martial arts.In my opinion, to be precise, for people like me, the use of guns and swords is basically the use of the "God's Eye".Warriors should regard the "God's Eye" as an extension of the body, and spears and swords are extensions of the "God's Eye".

Turning around, he praised Zhongli again, saying: "You are so good at betting on stones, I think you must be able to see very far away. Why do you want to ask? Because very few people can look down at stones carefully. You can even see things under your feet like this." It’s detailed and well-organized, and it looks like it’s been studied. If you think about it...seeing things in the sky, it’s not bad.”

Last winter, when they were short of a little money, they used exactly the method Zhongli said: betting on stones.

And what's even weirder is that the sold price of the Yebo stone that was opened just happened to be poor money.No more, no less.At that time, Gu Hua also said that Prince Yan really didn't want to be prostituted for nothing.

Gu Hua spat out a whole winter's worth of words, and instead of asking Zhong Li if he understood, he asked, "I know you must be skilled, but what kind of weapon do you use?"

"Do you really want to know?" The man raised his head and asked him just after ordering.

Gu Hua nodded, his mouth was dry just now, he picked up the water glass and poured water for himself.

But seeing the man in black robe in front of him showing that kind of smile for the first time, it was a bit meaningful.

"No talent, it happens that all martial arts are proficient."

Gu Hua spat out a mouthful of water.Zhong Li dodged and avoided a single drop.

The moon hangs on the willow branches, and the swordsman is half-drunk, holding up his wine glass and saying: "Life, it is rare to drink the first jar of welcome spring wine with your best friends in early spring."

"What's more precious is that my friends can see the same beautiful scenery in this world as me."

Zhong Li didn't answer his words, obviously the two of them drank about the same amount of wine, one was drunk and rolled on the table, and the other drank as casually as tea.

"I don't believe in gods," the swordsman on his back leaned in a corner, and the swordsman drank and said, "Really. I don't lie to you. It's just that I found that after worshiping Lord Yan, my fortune is really good."

The man in black robe picked up the jug on the table, shook it, and nodded slowly.

Gu Hua drank a few more cups, got on top, and Xu Xu told the story of Yan Wang Dijun that he had heard on the road before.It is said that the mountain of Tianheng is very big, and it was cut off by Lord Yan to make a wine glass. I also want to drink with that kind of wine glass, it must be very exciting!

He didn't know that the emperor himself in the story was sitting in front of him, and even shared with him the first altar of fine wine in early spring in the rivers and lakes.

The swordsman doesn't know, so he carefree.I feel that the wine I won can be shared with my best friends, which is really the greatest blessing in the world.

"For you, how do you choose between benevolence and righteousness?" Zhongli asked him.

Gu Hua replied to him in a daze: "Everyone in the world has a dilemma between benevolence and righteousness. For knights, they have to give up benevolence for righteousness; for another kind of people, they have to give up righteousness and choose benevolence."

"Are you another kind of person?" the drunken swordsman asked him. "Do you have to make this choice too?"

This question was followed by a long silence.In the face of someone who is already drunk, he will not give an answer at will.He didn't seem to understand human emotions, Gu Hua clapped his hands and laughed at him, saying that he had long thought he was like a rock.Gu Hua joked about himself, leaned crookedly on the chair without moving, and laughed "hehe".

After a while, the man in black robe stretched out his hand out of the window, blocking Yue who was looking at him.

"I don't think it's really your fault. As you said, there is a dilemma between benevolence and righteousness in the world."

The black robe on his body flowed slowly like ink, and a night's shadow hung from his body to under the chair.

The swordsman who was drunk and fell asleep on the table showed a wry smile in his sleep.

"The Guhua school once had this question, asking: If the world is chaotic, you and your friends found the same food at the same time, but there are family members behind you who need this food. Do you give it to yourself or to each other?"

"Do you choose benevolence or righteousness?"

"It is said that Gu Hua chose righteousness, and he left food for his friends. Fortunately, Gu Hua quickly found food to keep himself alive. But his friend still died, because the food was left to had two children."

"Do you think it was saved or not?"

The old man didn't expect to get an answer, he walked around the old site of the Guhua School, and every time he looked at a place, he would recall what happened here back then.

"I once had a friend who said to me that benevolence and righteousness can be both, as long as the strength is sufficient, ten thousand methods can break it with one force."

The old man laughed and asked, "Is this friend the one you mentioned just now?"

Ke Qing nodded and continued: "He said that the world is also a road, just like a sword in the hands of a swordsman. Immortals with all kinds of magic skills walk on the spine of the sword, and mortals walk on the edge of the blade. When mortals look up, they can see the blue white cloud fairy , mortals feel that immortals are comfortable, they can do anything, and they can have both benevolence and righteousness."

He turned around, with a slight smile on his face, and said, "My friend said, it's actually not like this. The higher you walk, the harder you fall. You can't aspire to become a powerful immortal."

winter day.

The two strolled to Pingqiao where they met for the first time.

The swordsman standing by the bridge let out a "ha", and a white breath came out of his mouth.In the winter of Liyue again, there is a flat bridge under his feet, and there is a bare river bed under the flat bridge, and there are large pebbles on the river bed.It's been off this winter.

The swordsman smiled back and said, "Do you know there is a sentence?"

"Before the emperor goes out to fight, there are no taboos for all the demons and demons in the world."

He tugged at his waist, as if he was pulling up his underpants.In fact, what hangs around his waist is the Eye of God.

The swordsman said again: "Hey... the universe is bright."

spring day.

The boy who was rescued back then learned swordsmanship with Gu Hua, and the girl became healthy after being recuperated.

What is even more gratifying is that last time, when they went to the End of Clouds together, they were deeply trapped in the white mist.

When Gu Hua talked about what happened at that time, he slapped the table and the bowls and chopsticks on it rattled. He beamed with joy: "We couldn't see anything in the white fog, and we didn't dare to walk around. After all, it was between the clouds. Wouldn't it be great if we fell?" There are no bones left. And there is actually the sound of whales in the sea of ​​fog. Others may not be able to hear it, thinking that it is the strange cry of some gods and ghosts, but I am different, I am a person who has wandered. , I knew it was the cry of the legendary Die fish."

"That's where his sister found the fairy fate." The swordsman turned his chopsticks and pointed to the smiling boy on the other side. "It's a great qualification, so she's not here today."

"Hasn't the immortal asked you?" Zhong Li asked, he didn't believe that this piece of "good jade" hadn't been asked.

"Sir, you know things like gods!" Gu Hua put his palms together, "The Deer Immortal asked me, and said that my aptitude is rare in the world."

Zhong Li raised his eyebrows to signal him to continue.

He separated his palms and laughed with a long voice: "But I refused, hahahaha——"

"When I was young, looking at the night when the rain was pouring, I wondered when my swordsmanship was so good that I could break the rain with my sword. Looking at the thunderous black clouds, I wondered when I could smash them with my sword. Let's get it over , Looking at the high mountains and wide seas, I wonder if I can use a sword, can I use a sword!!"

"Becoming a fairy, covering the moon and breaking the clouds, cutting mountains and filling the sea, aren't you tempted?" Zhong Li asked him.

Gu Hua laughed loudly: "It's so boring to be a fairy. It's because I'm a human that I can say: I haven't seen enough scenery in this life!"

He raised his glass to toast and shouted: "Come, come, this is the first altar of Yingchun wine in early spring this year, you and I will drink together."

There was no smell of blood on his body anymore, and he was wearing a white robe that naturally hung down like the wings of a white crane, showing the spirit of a chivalrous man.

This is the two of them drinking together for the second time.

The world called him Gu Hua, called him a ranger, and called him the number one swordsman in the world.

When he is there, bandits dare not move rashly, and the countryside is as peaceful as a city!

"There is no weight outside a free object. If you cut the rain, it will rain, and if you stab it, you will see it. If you move like a dragon and a snake, you can't catch it. Blue eyes are like swords, and sideways eyes are like guns." Ke Qing repeated this sentence.

He asked: "If you are so unskilled, the Guhua School will end here. Are you willing, old man?"

The old man carried a big sword on his back, and he was already in his twilight years. He had been traveling for several days since Liyue, and he didn't feel tired. When he heard the question, his eyes became brighter and brighter.

The old man replied: "Not reconciled, why should I be willing. However, even if the Guhua Sect ends here, the chivalrous heart will last forever in people's hearts. My disciples will also live a good life in Liyue. One day, It is enough to mention the story of the Guhua School again."

"The founder of the Gu Hua faction is not Gu Hua, but those who have been favored by him. Didn't you want to pass on this chivalrous heart when you did this?" The old man stroked the white cloth that bound Yu Cai, smile.

"Old man, you once asked at Changhen Bridge: Does such a chivalrous person, such an immortal, have any regrets?" Zhong Li asked himself and answered, "Gu Hua is not an immortal, he refused the opportunity to become an immortal, and he was willing to be an immortal." A mortal man. He was a knight to the end."

"Regret? Probably there are..."

Zhong Li looked at the green hills from a distance, and said softly, "At least that spring, no one will have a drink with him in the rivers and lakes with the third altar of Yingchun wine."

It has been many years since the girl who learned the fairy art came back again.Her elder brother became a sailor and wandered on the far sea of ​​Liyue for a long time.

There will not even be a drop of blood in killing people with immortal methods. Gu Hua only knew this today.

The girl asked him: "Why didn't you save my parents back then?"

Gu Hua didn't answer, and swung his sword to chop off her hands.

The moment he let the girl go, the God's Eye on his waist suddenly shattered.

A chivalrous swordsman once said: There are too many injustices in this world, and this is the reason why I wield my sword.Seeing that people who have suffered injustice can get the compensation they deserve.People who see oppressing others can be punished as they deserve.All these things are just like Lord Yan once said about contract and fairness in this land... But Lord Yan is a god, and the god is too busy.So those of us who have chivalry in our hearts, we have to take care of it, we can't leave everything to Lord Yan.

A chivalrous man in a dilemma between righteousness and benevolence once chose righteousness.

——And his choice will lead to today's result.

The girl killed his best friend with fairy magic, it was like an absurd revenge.

Gu Hua smiled bitterly: "The third pot of wine in early spring this year, who should I share it with?"

He asked questions, but no one answered.

"There is a dilemma between benevolence and righteousness in the world..." he murmured.

In front of his best friend's tomb, he unsealed the third altar of fine wine, toasted, and said, "You know all kinds of martial arts...you can really bluff people."

"You can't say that...an immortal...how can a mortal beat an immortal?" He drank, "I was right when I didn't become an immortal. When I became an immortal, the scenery I saw would be different."

"It's rare in this life to drink the first altar of good wine in early spring with friends, and it's rare to see friends..." He sobbed a few times and couldn't continue.

A swordsman with the sharpest sword energy in the world, but a sword without a sharp edge in his hand.He has the softest heart in the world, and the hottest chivalrous heart in the world.

He also has the most precious friend in the world.

Sadly gone.

On the way across the flat bridge, the sword marks are still there, and the wind and the sun are hard to wear away.People with good deeds named it "Long Scar Bridge".

"A hundred years later, this bridge will be called: Everlasting Sorrow."

"Unfortunately... yes." Ke Qing said lightly.

The swordsman passed out drunk in front of the tomb. There was no writing on the stele, and the swordsman didn't know what to engrave.

Is it "Gu Hua's best friend" or "the best stone gambler in the world", he thought of these in his dream and laughed.

Had a dream.

In the dream, a man in a black robe who couldn't see his face asked him, "If you go back to that day, how would you choose?"

"Which day?" Gu Hua replied, "I have never regretted it in my life."

As he spoke, he suddenly stopped, "It's just that I'm a little regretful...so sorry..."

"No regrets?"

"not regret."

The next day, Gu Hua woke up in front of the tomb.There is no stele in front of the tomb, and a gun is inserted obliquely in front.

On top of it, a rock god's eye that can only be bestowed by a rock king is shining brightly.

A hundred years ago, the world begged the chivalrous man to have a flawless life and a clear conscience, and to bury his blood and courage with Qiuri Xingye.

A hundred years later, the world implores the king, this body has no gaps, the light is penetrating, and the sea of ​​clouds and mists is far away from all worlds.

However, the chivalrous man said that he could not have a clear conscience, and the king said that it was difficult for him to have a clear conscience.

So the world made up a story, saying: At the end of Gu Hua's journey as a chivalrous warrior, he turned into a star amidst the radiance and purple energy.The King of Rocks walks forever on the land of Liyue, as long as the rock, as great as the immovable mountain.

"What is written on the tablet?" the child asked.

"Who is buried here?" The child put Qingxin in his hand in front of the tomb.

"Why can't I see your face clearly?" the child asked again.

The man in black robe answered him: "I will see clearly later. A ray of spring breeze is buried here."

When he stroked the stele, the man read out every single word: "Please read my chivalry from the corner."

A call came from behind.

"Master Xingqiu——!"

Xing Qiu blinked, and the black-robed man had disappeared.

Only the stele in front of him is said to be buried with a ray of spring breeze.

Suddenly, a gust of spring breeze came, and saw a man carrying a wine jar and walking on the road with a big sword on his back.Beside him was another man holding a gun, vague and hard to see.

The Liyue storyteller told the end of Guhua's past: I have an old friend who went away with a sword in his hand, and never returned after cutting all the spring breeze.

The author has something to say:

It should be known that in this world, benevolence and righteousness are in a dilemma, there must be a cause and an effect
