The Spirit World

Chapter 647: Meditation and contemplation.

【Victoria Manor】

The nameless man wearing a bowler hat had a head of white hair. The silver hair seemed to have left an indelible mark on his body as if time had passed too quickly.

His eyes, however, were an extremely clean, clear, and azure blue. If someone wanted to implicate him in some bad things, he would definitely not be willing to do so.

How could such a good-looking person be such a bad guy?

He looked at Chang Yufeng, focusing all his attention on Chang Yufeng. The white clothes on Chang Yufeng seemed very dazzling, making him blink quickly.

"You are really an eye-catcher when you stand here!"

He placed his hand next to Chang Yufeng and tried to grab Chang Yufeng's collar, but was hit by the whisk of Li Xiuyuan next to him. The man withdrew his hand in dissatisfaction and looked at Li Xiuyuan viciously.

"Don't mess around. When I didn't know, I didn't know what was happening to you. But now I know that my junior sister's son is being toyed with and even bullied by others here. Even though I am alone and don't care about worldly affairs, I still have to take action."

Li Xiuyuan stared at the man and cursed: "You are neither a demon nor a ghost, but you are definitely not a human being. You spoke harsh words to my junior sister's son. As the master, don't accuse me of being angry and killing people, and asking the heaven and earth to drive me here."

"Hmph, you people are not orthodox gods. You are nothing but scum who crawled out of the mud, and pigs that ascended from the pigsty!" The man stared at Li Xiuyuan with gritted teeth. Li Xiuyuan's pure white Taoist robe seemed to really prick his eyes. He had to cover his eyes with his hands, slowly moved away, and jumped onto the collapsed stone wall of the manor.

"Oh, you are really rude when you talk, little boy! Even if that is the truth, my own child did something wrong, you beat and scolded him, I accept it, but my disciple has never thought of harming anyone, but you still want to put up with him, making him suffer and hurt him, who can tolerate it?"

Li Xiuyuan cursed and came over, swung his white whisk, and the fresh air brought out by the whisk hit the man. The man was hit by the fresh air and was split apart fiercely on time. The black air connected his torso, making him half dead, but he stared at Li Xiuyuan.

Chang Yufeng looked at his "great master", who was also his mother's senior sister, and his thoughts began to fly again.

His original purpose of coming to the spirit world was actually his parents. Putting aside other thoughts, the one thing he wanted to find, the one he wanted to find all the time, must be his parents.

After so many years and so much, how could he blame his parents? He just wanted to see them or talk to them.

It is very likely that his parents did not intend to abandon him. After he knew this, he definitely forgave his parents, or rather, forgave himself for the slight hatred he had towards his parents.

Then it doesn't matter... isn't it?

He is so old now, not a three-year-old child. Who hasn't suffered?... He is not a dead child either. He still understands this truth. He just feels a little regretful... It's a pity that they have not been by his side for so many years. It's a pity that they have not appeared in his world for so many years.

Perhaps their legends or deeds are circulating in some corner of this world.

But for him, he had never received any direct favor from his parents, and even from other people in the past, he could only feel a little superficial care...

[In this world...there must always be a harbor, and parents are your harbor. If your parents are very bad to you, then this harbor is indeed dispensable, but most people still hope that their parents are by their side, and they are grateful for their cultivation and education.

Perhaps, not every parent is like this, but who doesn’t want their parents to be more open-minded, more tolerant, more giving, healthier, live longer, be happier and more blessed?

Adding up little by little, it makes up your whole life.

As a parent, who doesn't want to revolve around their children? Most of them worry about their children's food, clothing, eating, drinking, defecating, urinating, health, education, achievements, and marriage. Most of them are worried and concerned, to the point of being completely uneasy.

For those things that parents cannot do, for those things that parents have not done, for those men and women who are not good parents in the eyes of their children, this kind of family affection flowing in the blood will always connect them and has never been severed.

Although Chang Yufeng has never seen his parents and has only heard a little story about them, he is already very satisfied and does not expect them to give up everything and return to him.

He is old enough now and doesn't need too much company from his parents. Now, perhaps, it is time for him to be filial to his parents.

Perhaps, the greatest sorrow is that a child wants his parents but they are no longer around to take care of him.

No one wants this.

I think there is no one who doesn't want a pair of understanding and doting parents, but people are indeed unable to be perfect. An imperfect life, imperfect parents, and an imperfect self may be the normal state of life for most people.

And being ordinary may not be as heinous as Xun Huangying said, because the definition of ordinary should be having ordinary parents, an ordinary family, an ordinary self, an ordinary life, and an ordinary world, and it cannot simply link ordinariness with talent.

Because everyone has an ordinary talent for one thing and an extraordinary talent for another.

How to choose makes life full of questions.

If you want to be an extremely smart inventor, perhaps you should have a genius mind and a photographic memory to turn everything in your mind into reality. Or you can be mediocre and work harder based on the efforts of predecessors' research, using your ordinary talents to catch up with others.

Perhaps we will never catch up, but there is a word that must be the nature that inspires those who strive like this.

It's called [Only practice makes perfect].

Even if you cannot truly create your own brilliant invention, you will definitely become an expert in this field because of your accumulated experience and the courage to make mistakes. Refusing all flattery from those who pretend to know something and refusing all temptations that make you lazy and undisciplined may be the biggest gain of this journey.

If talent can really hold a person back, then that person must have been intimidated by the rhetoric of those around him.

In this world, there is a most magical, terrifying and incredible mysterious power.

That's the art of speaking.

Many people do not realize the importance of words, because they probably do not feel that they can be affected by other people's words.

A person who is praised and a person who is always slandered will definitely make different behavioral choices on the same thing.

Even if their previous behavioral choices were consistent.

Some people believe that words of encouragement can bring strength to people. This is definitely not groundless. Many people think it is useless, but the person who says this sentence does not seem to be very important to those people.

If the most important person in your heart says words of encouragement and cheering to you, no one will not be excited and may even make a breakthrough that is like a miracle.

It’s not that words of praise are ineffective, it’s just that the person saying them may not be of much help to you.

If a stranger homeless person came to tell Chang Yufeng, hey, work harder, you will definitely be able to cultivate magic and spiritual power.

Chang Yufeng might smile kindly, then leave without looking back.

But if it was his own parents who said this, to tell him, you can do it, son, spiritual power is not a difficult thing, I will teach you, you will definitely learn it.

Even if Chang Yufeng could not learn it in the end, he would definitely work a hundred times, or even a thousand times harder than what the homeless man said, to try and find another way to gain spiritual power.

Work hard for it,

The words you strive for must vary from person to person, and even from person to person speaking.

If his parents were by his side, he might be able to do twice as much. But most parents don’t quite understand the importance of words. They think their children understand or know exactly what to do, so they let their children do whatever they want, or even treat them too harshly, never praising them, and never thinking of “shyly speaking” to praise their children.

In other words, children need to be taught. They are not mature people yet, but they can gradually mature under the guidance of their parents.

To sum it up in one sentence, children will not become successful on their own without anyone to teach them. It is stupid and ridiculous to expect children to become successful on their own.

What children need is not just knowledge. Knowledge is only a tool for them to learn, while truth is what parents give them.

Even if the parents are bad, the children can be good.

If the parents are good, the children can be well behaved.

Ultimately, it comes down to education.

It never occurred to me that I couldn't teach my child myself...even though I have done that...but I wanted my child to understand this truth any time I wasn't around.

Whenever you need to rely on yourself, you must praise yourself appropriately. If you feel embarrassed, just think of it as me, the mother, praising you.

I really want to praise you in front of you, my child, you must be very cute and very well-behaved, I love you, and your father loves you too.

So praise yourself. It is not a shameful thing. If you do something wrong, we will watch it and we may teach you that it is your fault. But if you do something good and you do something well, we will definitely not be stingy with our praise. 】

"Hmph, I feel sick when I see him." The man faced Chang Yufeng's face, and his fangs began to slowly show. He now looked extremely evil and charming, which was hard to accept... The weird beauty was suddenly revealed, and Chang Yufeng and Erica had to turn their eyes to him.

"Kindness is just a quality that only ridiculous maggots would use. What's the point of being kind? When was this place a battlefield of intrigue and deception? When they killed people without blinking an eye, did they ever think that those who were killed were kind? Lambs?"

The man pushed down his bowler hat, and his fangs shone whitely from under it.

He now seemed like a fierce ghost, about to bite the prey standing next to him.

"Benevolence, righteousness, and morality are nothing more than the rhetoric of conspirators. There is an old saying that goes, 'If a man does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth.' It would be naive to think that there are only kind people in this world."

His clear blue eyes looked at Chang Yufeng. Chang Yufeng didn't seem to care about him at all, but just looked at him quietly.

Chang Yufeng was unusually calm and didn't seem to take what he said to heart.

Even though Chang Yufeng listened very seriously, when he thought about it carefully, he realized that he had already denied what this person wanted to express.

He is not a fool who would be kind to everyone, nor is he a person who would be tolerant to everyone, nor is he a saint who would forgive all those who hurt him.

He has his own hatred, his own views on good and evil, and his own selfish desires.

He was never a purely kind lamb to be slaughtered.

When facing a real enemy, he would take up arms and would never show mercy. When facing a truly kind person, he would never use a knife to fight against them.

Dialectical kindness is more suitable for me.

This person does not understand himself.

Just like what Chang Yufeng said to Erica, since Erica is his sister, if anything happens to Erica, he will definitely help her without hesitation, even at the risk of his own life.

Rather than any foolish and kind person who would actually give money to a rich man who runs up to him on the street and says, "Give me a gold coin, I'm so poor that I can barely afford to eat."

This person says that he is disgusting... but he doesn't understand himself, so he says that he is kind... and he also expresses his likes and dislikes for the self in his eyes and even in his heart.

This made Chang Yufeng as calm as a mountain.

Because what a person says carries a strong subjective consciousness. Even if he curses someone to death, it is the product of his own writing and self-hypnosis and has nothing to do with himself.

However, he was also wondering if he had done something wrong to make him like this.

But looking at his appearance, I have no impression of him at all, no impression of him at any time.

This made Chang Yufeng even more embarrassed.

Even unclear.

After all, not everyone can distinguish these things like I do. For example, I know to be cautious in what I say and do, and I know to think before I speak.

If you don't use your brain, you will always make mistakes.

It's like this.

He compared himself to a "watchman", which is another nickname for a bystander.

It was almost impossible to stay out of it completely, but it was always better to do more and talk less. No matter how he scolded, Chang Yufeng didn't understand the whole story...

Because every word he said was subjective, his hatred, his anger and rage were all imaginary creations of himself in his mind.

Because I have never had any contact with anyone other than Erica, Hall, and Lilia.

Anyone who believes this kind of nonsense is a fool.

I have never been a completely kind person, and comparing myself to being kind is simply nonsense.

All we can say is that he tends to be kind, does kind things, is willing to help others, and does not think about doing evil.

Instead of being a goody-goody who doesn't fight back when he's wronged and even turns a blind eye when he's beaten.

He has an extreme ability of meditation, and a clear concept of good and evil that allows him to live his life clearly.

But he is an ordinary person, and anyone can do the same thing as him. For example, calm down and think about your life, calm down and think about your future, and calm down and think about what kind of person you should be.

Alive.
