my old life

Chapter 1017 Journey of Stars and Seas

Standing by the sea and staring, the first ray of morning light pierced the gray sky, my whole body was bathed in the early morning light, looking at the dawn of the sun seemed to bring new hope!
After a whole night of thinking, I finally understood what I lacked now. At this moment, I feel that my whole body is extremely transparent. This feeling of being reborn from a broken mirror is extremely relaxing!
The slight sea breeze blowing by the seaside makes people seem to be able to forget the turbulent waves last night. The calm sea surface is covered with golden sunlight, and the shimmering colors seem to wash away the dark starry sky last night.

I took out a cigarette and lit it all the time. I haven’t felt a cigarette so smooth for a long time. The relief in my heart made me see through everything and let me learn to be patient with time!
Time is fair to everyone, don't have too much desire when you don't have the ability, otherwise you will suffer from pain...

As the old monster Buddha said, people's suffering comes from anger at their own incompetence!
Now people's pace is too fast, so fast that there is no time to stop and examine ourselves, and examine the confusion that haunts our hearts but cannot be shaken off, until we are dragged down to the point where we are full of scars.

After one night, I re-examined myself and examined the current situation with an absolutely balanced mentality. Only when I calm down can I see all the difficulties clearly and let people get out of the predicament!

I think I should thank the mute, but also the old monster Buddha!I will not give up those determinations and beliefs in my heart, but I have learned to be patient with time!
Just do the best you can in the limited time, if you can't eat in one sitting, you won't be fat, and haste makes waste!

At this moment, I heard hurried footsteps coming from behind. I didn't turn my head and didn't want to know who was coming. No matter what kind of news I heard, I would not be moved.

Because what has happened is doomed to be unchangeable, what should come will always come...

"Mr. Ming, put on some clothes in the windy morning."

The person who came was Crow. He took a black windbreaker and put it on me. I nodded to express my gratitude.

When I looked back, I suddenly saw Buddha Qianxiao, she was standing at the window on the second floor of the villa, I don’t know how long she looked at me... But at this moment, I felt a little warmth.

I don't know if it's because of the black windbreaker or the relief in my heart, but this tinge of warmth melted away the icy cold all night, giving me a strange warmth in my heart!

"Mr. Ming, Miss prepared breakfast by herself, please go there together."

"Okay, I'll go right there."

I nodded to show that I understood. I was a little surprised when I heard the word "hands-on", but it aroused my curiosity to try it in the past.

For some reason, my heart suddenly changed. I no longer resist the feelings and warmth around me, as if I can feel the breath of Shiliu in the dark...

Just like I don't want her to suffer loneliness alone, she probably doesn't want to see me struggling to the point of being bruised all by myself. People always look for inner comfort.

Arriving at Fo Qianxiao's villa with strides, the simple porridge and pickles looked so delicious, and her smile was warmer than ever.

"I heard that Miss Fo made the breakfast herself?" I looked at her curiously. In my impression, Fo Qianxiao is definitely not the kind of person who cooks!

"Try it."

After simply eating, what surprised me was that Buddha Qianxiao didn't ask anything, just like the usual life...

"Sanming, you and I will go see grandpa with me later, he has something to show you!"

"Ok."

I agreed straight away, but I didn't know what the old monster Buddha was going to show me, but I suddenly thought of that old photo...

In a blink of an eye, I came to the villa of the old monster Buddha, and I took a deep breath to adjust my mentality. I have understood a lot after one night!
Old monster Buddha is drinking tea leisurely, and he also changed into a light gray robe. I have never seen him not wearing a robe.

"Good morning old sir!"

"Sit down." Old Monster Buddha waved his hand, and I saw an extra pack of unopened playing cards on the table in front of me.

When I saw the playing cards, I immediately thought of the thousand-door technique, and suddenly thought of the black windbreaker on my body. Is it possible that the Buddha is going to teach me?
"Mister, I already understand what I lack..."

"You don't need to tell me, I will know it naturally! Shuffle the cards, and use your best technique to shuffle the cards." Old Fool pointed at the poker, and I immediately understood in my heart!
"it is good!"

When I took apart the poker, my right arm hurt badly, much worse than yesterday. As soon as I stretched the muscles, I felt tingling pain, and my right hand trembled uncontrollably.

I used to do the simple action of taking apart the poker, but it was so difficult for me to do it. What I used to do with two hands is now very difficult with one hand. Even the simplest has become difficult!
"Why are your hands trembling? Don't use your hands that don't work well!" Old Monster Buddha taught me a lesson, and I nodded to show that I understood.

It was very difficult to take apart the poker, but the usual incomparably soft techniques all failed at this moment!It feels strange to control poker with one hand, and all the familiar feelings seem to disappear.

I tried my best to find the sense of technique I used to have, even if I used to be able to accomplish things with one hand, but without the help of my right hand, the taste changed... I knew in my heart that this was a problem with the sense of coordination.

"Now do you know why I hurt your right hand?" Old Monster Buddha said slowly.

"understood."

"No! You don't know! A person's real killing move must be kept until the end, and your strongest thing must be hidden, otherwise you will be no different from those who rely on tricks to sneak around!"

I know that Buddha and monsters are teaching me, and I also know that I am different from others. This moment is the key to prove the truth for myself!
Two-handed cheaters are all over the world, but one-handed cheaters are not so common!I know that the right hand of the old monster Buddha is a sharp weapon, but the real ultimate move is definitely not so easy to learn!

One hand shuffled the cards in a mess. I tried my best to find the feeling I had but couldn't get it, because my fingers became stiff because of anxiety.

"Qian Xiao, you shuffle and deal the cards with one hand and show him." The old monster changed the subject, and I immediately put down the poker in my hand.

Fo Qianxiao picked up the poker with one hand and shuffled it casually. The movements were blunt but the fluency was better than mine, and the fluency of dealing cards was better than mine...

"See what's going on? Qian Xiao doesn't know how to perform tricks, so she doesn't have another hand in her heart."

"Ah! That's how it is!" I suddenly understood the meaning of the old monster Buddha. I always have a right hand in my heart, even if I can't use it, I still miss it!
All my inherent thoughts and techniques and feelings in the past have all become my burden at this moment!I also understand that the Buddha and the old monster want me to forget everything I used to, and learn with the mentality of a beginner!

If I can't learn to be patient with time, then everything I learn will be based on the previous methods, because this is the most effective way...

But Old Monster Buddha tried his best to teach me to be patient with time, so the technique he taught must be unique!The prerequisite for learning is to turn me into a blank sheet of paper!
After correcting my mentality, I shuffled and dealt the cards with one hand again, and no longer deliberately searched for the feeling of the previous technique, because the feeling of the past is not used now...

Just like the novelty when I picked up poker for the first time, I shuffled the cards as I wished without any rules. Although there was no possibility of a thousand tricks, the fluency was much better.

After a few times, I have been able to surpass Buddha Qianxiao by a lot, but the fluency is only a little better, and there is no trick at all.

"That's right, such a comprehension ability impresses the old man! Your comprehension ability and learning ability are the most beneficial weapons!"

"Old sir, I don't understand..."

"Under the inherent thinking, you are far from other people's opponents, but learning can make people grow continuously. Only by using unknown variables can you defeat the inherent fixed numbers!"

The words of the old monster Buddha made me suddenly realize that I am inferior to Ye Lingyun in everything inherent, but the only thing I am better than him is learning and comprehension!
In other words, his strength has become a fixed number, but my continuous learning can become a variable, so that I can catch up with him sooner or later!
"As for the most basic thousand skills, you should understand. You don't need the old man to teach you. Use this hand to practice slowly, and come to me when you're done!" The old monster Buddha waved his hand, his face full of tears. The look of expectation!
"Understood! Thank you, old man, for cultivating!" I stood up and prepared to leave, using one hand to complete the thousands of skills I have practiced for many years, which is easier said than done!
"Remember, a thousand skills are only for a moment... go."

"I will definitely study hard!" I replied firmly, and I will not resist anyone with good intentions!
