Chapter 2974 (two thousand nine hundred and seventy-four) kindness
"Master, no matter whether I dye the incense into poisonous black or not, I will listen to what you said back then and put the incense in the right place!" Li Pingrun said.
So he really approached the incense burner, stretched out his hand, and straightened the incense stick.
At that moment, it was as if he had straightened his shadow.
When he took his hand off it, he felt that there was nothing unusual about the incense stick.
He looked at his hands and found that there was actually not much difference between his hands today and yesterday. He thought: If there is any difference, it would probably be that they are older than yesterday... But they are so old that I can't see. come out. The hands will grow old, but what about the heart? Maybe a soft heart doesn’t age easily? My heart is not necessarily completely black, but completely hard, right?
“I have never forgotten many of the things my master taught me back then. Over the years, even when I walked on that poisonous black road, I still adhered to certain principles. Although sometimes I I will speak tactfully, and I will avoid talking about things I don’t want to say. I will hesitate to speak some words, and sometimes I will speak in a different way, but I will not lie blatantly!" Li Pingrun said.
At this point, he felt that the so-called advantages he said he saw in himself were nothing. He seemed to hear the master criticizing him, and continued: "That's right, master, for training us For those who practice magic, whoever lies will pay a huge price and will die. Master, you have said many things to me, which has long made me develop the habit of being honest, no matter who I am talking to. All honest, this is actually to save my life. I will not blatantly lie to others, maybe it is just because I have a strong desire to survive? No... no... it doesn't count for a person like me. I'm not a person with a strong desire to survive. If I really had a strong desire to survive, how could I have walked on that dark road full of venom so many years ago? But... in fact, I walked on that path? Is this road considered a way to survive? No...how can it be considered a way to survive? It's more like seeking death! It's just that when I walked, I didn't realize that it was a road that would lead to my own death. When you don’t realize it, other people’s advice is sometimes of little use. So do I have any other advantages?”
Li Pingrun looked at the incense stick that he had straightened and thought...
After thinking for a while, he said: "Master, do you think remembering the kindness others have shown me is an advantage of mine?"
However, just after saying this, Li Pingrun felt ashamed and said quickly: "Should I not say such things? Master, will you think that if I really remember your kindness to me, I will never Set foot on that road stained with poison?"
Li Pingrun let out a long sigh, took a few steps back, and the heel of his right foot touched the futon.
He glanced back at the futon, as if he was worried that the futon would be stained by him, and moved his right foot forward a little, keeping a small distance away from the futon.
Li Pingrun looked at the incense again and said: "Master, although I took the wrong path and did many things wrong, in fact... I really remember your kindness to me! I have to I didn’t do well, but I remember, I can’t lie to myself, I really remember!” (End of Chapter)
