Chapter 146: Heart-killing

Xiaoqing's face turned red and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Who wants to be Mrs. Xu?"

Hu Xinyue smiled and said nothing, knowing not to act too hastily. Now it is enough to plant a seed in Xiaoqing's heart. No, the seed has already existed in Xiaoqing's heart, in everyone's heart, and it is the desire for freedom.

.All she did was shed a little dew.

"Let's go, it's time to have lunch. My magic power is gone and I will get hungry easily."

After having a meal at a random restaurant, the two of them continued their sightseeing. Xiaoqing observed carefully and found that Hu Xinyue did not go out to visit the mountains and rivers just to play tricks, but truly devoted herself to lingering among the mountains and rivers, laughing and joking during the process.

No matter what other people think of her, she doesn't care at all.

It wasn't until evening that I returned home.

Xu Xian had just prepared dinner. Although it was just ordinary porridge, his cooking was very exquisite.

Although no one in this family has to eat, the mood is naturally happy to be able to gather together at this time.

Hu Xinyue sat cross-legged on the chair without any image, stretched out, and said: "Huh, I'm so tired!" She picked up a mouthful of food with chopsticks, "Although the taste is okay, it's too simple. You're not very good at it."

Do you have money? I want to cook at least a hundred dishes."

"Bang", the chopsticks in Xu Xian's hand fell unceremoniously on her head, "Have you finished eating a hundred dishes? And are the dishes I cooked just okay? I should say, 'Ah, it's so delicious.

, I simply don’t know how to describe it, what should I do if I can’t eat it in the future?’”

"Ah, it's so delicious. I just don't know how to describe it. What should I do if I can't eat it in the future? It's disgusting." Hu Xinyue looked at Xu Xian with a country bumpkin look, "Have you finished eating? Isn't one bite of one dish not enough?"

"

"Where are you from, Queen Mother?"

Bai Suzhen looked at them with a smile. She hesitated for a moment, then raised her chopsticks and took a bite of food for Hu Xinyue.

Hu Xinyue looked up at her, then lowered her head and continued eating.

Seeing that Xiao Qing was a little distracted, Xu Xian asked with concern: "Xiao Qing, isn't it fun today?"

Xiao Qing reacted, "Ah, it's nothing. I just met two scoundrels and were killed by a fox."

Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen were both stunned. How could they be stained with blood even when they went out for fun?

Hu Xinyue took over the conversation and told it briefly.

Xu Xian frowned and said, "Although those two scoundrels brought their own fault, you were too cruel." But he didn't think there was anything serious wrong. The scoundrels wanted to do bad things, but were killed instead. Such things are brought to the government.

, can never be considered guilty, but should be called a virtuous and virtuous woman.

In this era, the word "adultery" is extremely taboo, such as "a wife committed adultery with someone else, and her husband caught her and killed both of them." There are countless such things, and most of them will not lead to any crime. It should be ignored

In modern times, one must be convicted of intentional homicide.

And the laws of heaven are much broader. For example, in Lanruo Temple, the ghosts lure passers-by with their gold, silver, and beauty. Not only do they not have the heavenly soldiers and heavenly warriors to exterminate the demons, but even a heroic swordsman like Yan Chixia is too lazy to take care of it. I can only say that

In different eras, people's mentality is really different. The ancient people's ideas are definitely not the same as those of today.

Hu Xinyue smiled and said, "To punish evil is to promote good. Mr. Xu should praise me."

Xiaoqing thought of what Hu Xinyue said at that time, and wanted to say something, but hesitated. Since even Xu Xian thought that what she did was nothing, then that was all. And if she killed those two people, would she also be hurting herself?

What's your intention?

Only Bai Suzhen felt something, and sighed in her heart, "She really hasn't changed." No matter how correct her words and deeds were, her mentality when she did these things was definitely difficult for her to agree with.

After dinner, Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.

Hu Xinyue dismissed their time-wasting behavior and went back to her room to rest.

Bai Suzhen said with some worry: "Guanren, I'm a little worried about Xiaoqing."

"Huh?" Xu Xian turned around.

Bai Suzhen didn't know how to explain, "You don't know, Xiaoyue...she just kills people for fun, she does everything for fun, and doesn't care about anything else."

Xu Xian washed the dishes without any surprise on his face, "Probably, it can really be called 'the heart can be punished'. But in fact, no matter how strict the law is, at least one thing must be guaranteed - no punishment.

Heart. If she really killed innocent people indiscriminately, I will certainly not spare her today. But no one has the right to interfere with other people's thoughts. At most, they can only interfere with other people's behavior." I felt that I could suddenly understand Yan Chixia's original thoughts.

Maybe it’s because I’ve stayed in this era for too long and my concepts have changed unknowingly.

Bai Suzhen grabbed Xu Xian's sleeve, dissatisfied with his dismissive attitude, "I'm worried about Qing'er. Her temper is a bit wild, and her mind is simple and easy to be influenced by others. I don't want her to become like that."

Xu Xian stopped what he was doing and said with a smile: "You look like a mother who is worried about her daughter becoming a bad student!"

Bai Suzhen grabbed Xu Xian's ear and said, "Don't talk nonsense, I'm discussing with you, officer!"

Xu Xiandao: "I don't want to either, but that's what I think. I also hate what Hu Xinyue said, but it's not completely unreasonable. It's just different from our position. Xiaoqing is not a child, he will do

It is her own choice, and this is her freedom. Even if it is us, it is best not to interfere." If you use your own will as a benchmark to regulate all people, anyone who does not meet the standards is a heretic. Anyone who thinks like this"

People who think "righteously" are not far away from evil.

Bai Suzhen said angrily: "Aren't you afraid that Qing'er will become bad? I must talk to her."

Xu Xiandao: "It's not that serious. Let me tell you, in fact, I have also tried to become bad." He has not been obsessed with maintaining world peace since he was a child. After all, sometimes doing good things can be very hurt, and he will give up on himself and become angry.

Unevenness is normal.

Bai Suzhen listened to his story with a thoughtful look on her face. It must be a very serious matter for him to decide to be a bad guy like this!

"But at that time, even if I gained a lot of benefits, I felt very unhappy. It was like throwing land animals into the sea. Although I wouldn't drown, I still felt sad all over. Think about it.

Although there are many bad places on land, it is still better than here, so I went back. Whether it is saving people or helping others, it is not for the sake of benevolence and morality, but just for my own happiness. If you really doubt your own path,

Then just try something else. People are happiest when they are themselves! Rather than asking her to be a good person, I want her to be happy."

Bai Suzhen smiled and said, "I feel jealous when an official behaves like this."

Xu Xian looked at her with surprise, "Are you jealous too?"

Bai Suzhen's face suddenly turned red and she said, "Ah! How could that happen?" She quickly lowered her head to wash the dishes.

"That one has been washed."

In the pavilion not far away, Xiao Qing leaned against the railing, looking down at the stars in the sky, her long pony tail fluttering in the night wind.

The even clear night sky is exceptionally clear, with a dazzling star river flowing through the sky, and countless stars shining in it, which is so deep and beautiful that it is difficult to describe.

"What an amazing man, I thought he would be furious!" Hu Xinyue's laughter made Xiaoqing raise her head and look at her coldly.

Hu Xinyue didn't take it seriously and sat down on the railing, "Do you think he knew you were eavesdropping, so he said such indecent words on purpose, so that you would be so moved that you would be completely devoted to him from then on. That sentence 'Compared to

Let her be a good person, and I hope she is happy, but very graceful."

Xiaoqing glared at her, not bothering to refute, but said: "What do you mean by what you said today? Let's talk about it first. I think what you did today is very boring."

Hu Xinyue chuckled, "Are you bored? Then find something more interesting to do!"

Early in the morning of the next day, there was a hurried knock on the door. As soon as the door opened, an old man walked in and said bluntly that he was looking for Xu Xian. This was none other than Xu Xian's mentor, Old Master Song.

As Xu Xian's reputation has grown day by day, he no longer looks like the down-and-out scholar he once was. Now he wears loose clothes and a broad belt, and looks a bit like a celebrity. Originally he was just a slovenly man in the countryside, but now there are rumors that he has retired to the woods and fields to teach.

Xu Xian, a hermit with extraordinary talent, was born. People who were not aware of the rich and powerful people were vying for him to be their disciples' teacher.

In the living room, Yun Yan served tea, but the old man only held Xu Xian's hand and asked: "Hanwen, tell me, it must be a rumor. You said that none of the scholars in Jiangnan are really talented and learned, and they are all just drunkards and ricebags. I don't accept it."

Come and give it a try!"

Yun Yan's face looked a little strange, and she lowered her head even further.

Xu Xian softly said two words, "Really." The old man's heart stopped, and then he said, "But it's not what I said, it's what my wife said!" Only then did he regain his composure.

"That's okay. I still have some respect as a teacher. I will help you put this rumor to rest and say it is just the nonsense of a shallow woman. Alas, you are a big tree now, so you should be humble. Confucius said... Mencius said...

..." Old Man Song persuaded him earnestly.

Xu Xian just thought to himself that it was really not fun to be laughed at by the crowd. Rumors changed quickly! However, this was also expected by him. He became famous at a young age and would inevitably attract people's jealousy. Normally he would not show off much, but at times like this, there must be people.

Fanning the flames, wanting to make oneself a target.

Once the words have been spoken, once they spread, it doesn't matter whether they are true or false, and who said it. Not to mention the so-called popularity of the old man, even the leading figures in the literary world will not want to simply calm down. Unless they give in, they can

I can turn big things into small things.
