Chapter 88
"I'm sorry, Master."

The young boy bowed his head.

"Oh? What did you do wrong?" The old man didn't look annoyed, he just said kindly.

"A disciple shouldn't show off so arrogantly that he hurts someone." The boy said guiltily, "so much so that he caused trouble."

"How are you arrogant to show off?" The old man was not responsible, but asked again.

The boy said: "The disciple sees that young master bullying the village, and the guards around him can only write superficial skills, so I feel that I can deal with it..."

"Then have you dealt with it?" the old man asked.

The boy said: "No..."

The old man smiled and said, "But didn't you win the battle?"

The boy lowered his head and said: "The disciple only won for a while, but even the master was chased and killed by the opponent..."

The old man said: "So, you feel that you did something wrong?"

The boy said: "Disciple, I often hear people say that you should not use your emotions to cause trouble for your upper body. This is the case now. Of course it is wrong."

Only then did the old man open his eyes, looked at the boy in front of him and said, "Since you feel you are wrong, the teacher will not punish you, so what should you do if you say you are right."

The boy froze for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

While talking, there was a commotion outside.

"That's right here! That little bastard lives here!"

The old man glanced at the boy with a smile, and didn't say much, just opened the door and went out.

There was another din of cursing and shouting outside.

After a while, the old man came back, drove the boy again and said, "Go on."

The boy was surprised: "Master, those people?"

The old man said: "Of course I went back."

The boy was even more surprised. Just as he was about to speak, the old man seemed to be angry and shouted: "Aren't you still talking about you now? Don't bother talking about him!"

The boy shrank his neck and said cautiously: "The disciple doesn't know what is right..."

The old man seemed to get more and more angry: "Since you know what you did wrong, why don't you know what is right?"

The boy seemed to have finally made up his mind and said: "If you see people oppressing goodness but just want to protect yourself and stand by and watch, it is against morality and chivalry, but if you take action, you will cause trouble to your upper body. I really don't know what to do."

After hearing this, the old man showed a satisfied expression and said: "Finally, he told the truth."

The boy dared not make a sound.

"You are right to save people in this matter." The old man said slowly.

Hearing this, the boy finally relaxed a bit from his worry and panic.

"You think you are wrong, but you are also right." The old man said again.

The boy was finally relieved.

"Therefore, you have done nothing wrong."

"The disciple is not wrong?" The boy was confused after letting go of his worries, "If the disciple is wrong, then there is nothing wrong?"

The old man just nodded with a smile.

"I don't understand." The boy finally mustered up the courage to ask.

"There is nothing wrong with acting chivalrously, but how to act chivalrously is a different question." The old man said, "How did you do it this time?"

The boy said: "The disciple saw that evil young man oppressing the village, so he broke his legs and all his subordinates. Even if he invites a famous doctor, he will have to lie at home for several months."

The old man didn't comment, but said: "You hurt him and then let him go, and you will have a grudge, which will naturally lead to disaster, so if you say you are wrong, you are right."

The boy Zhou He frowned, and said incredulously: "Then, should the disciples kill them all?"

"There are people in Jianghu who act like this." The old man said calmly, "What do you think?"

The boy struggled and said: "The disciple only thinks that those people are not worthy of death. If they are killed, although they are acting chivalrously, they feel that there is something wrong."

The old man smiled and said, "Since you think it's wrong, then it's wrong."

The boy hurriedly asked: "But why is it wrong to do this?"

The old man said: "It's just because you feel something wrong in your heart."

The boy is puzzled.

The old man said: "How to behave is your own business. Some things are right and wrong. If you can't do it, you can't do it. But some things are not like this. It seems that no matter what you do, it is right. If you don’t want to cut grass and roots, you just don’t want to, and you don’t have to do it if you don’t want to.”

The boy is thoughtful.

The old man continued: "Since you don't want to cut the weeds and root them out, then there is nothing more to say, let's stop here for today's business."

But the boy seemed reluctant: "But if we don't kill them, what should we do?"

The old man said: "Since you don't want to kill, what else can you do?"

The boy lowered his head and said, "So, Master also thinks that he should be killed?"

The old man laughed: "When did I say you should kill someone?"

The boy said: "Master said earlier that I thought it was right to be wrong, but now he said that there is no other way not to kill someone. Doesn't that mean..."

The old man shook his head again and again and said, "No and no, I said that you are right in thinking you are wrong, but it is not that you are wrong in not killing people."

The boy became more and more confused.

The old man said: "Let me ask you why you think you are wrong."

The boy said honestly, "It's just because I got into trouble."

The old man said: "Then now, is there still trouble?"

The boy stretched his neck and looked outside the door, only to see that there was no one there, and asked cautiously, "Maybe?"

"Since there is no such thing, how did you get into trouble?"

The boy couldn't answer.

The old man said: "I said, there is nothing wrong with you wanting to act chivalrously, and it is not wrong to follow your heart and not want to kill, but this time, you have caused trouble after all, so if you consciously do something wrong, that is the same. Yes."

"But does it depend on the opponent's power to act chivalrously? If the situation is overwhelming, you should stand by and watch? How can it be chivalrous to do so?" The boy was even more puzzled.

The old man just smiled and asked again: "Let me ask you, if you didn't become a teacher today, what would you do now?"

The boy thought for a while and said, "The disciple will run away."

"Then you will regret it?"

The boy shook his head.

The old man said: "Since you know that you have offended someone you shouldn't, you have to run away. Even if you are hunted down by the other party, you still have to do what you want. That's enough."

"Enough?" the boy wondered.

"Whatever you do, you have to bear it. Walking in the rivers and lakes like this is enough."

"Whatever you do, you have to bear it..." the boy murmured, and then suddenly realized, "Then why do you still say that the disciple thinks it's right to be wrong? The disciple still doesn't know where the mistake is..."

The old man said: "Now, but you bear it yourself?"

The boy was speechless, as if feeling guilty again.

But the old man laughed loudly and said: "But I accept you, why should I bear this? It's very good if you think so, very good."

……

Xie Chen lay on his back on the bed, thinking, since this is the case, then it doesn't matter.
