<<"What does not kill you, makes you stronger.">>
Zhang Xingzhi’ s feet were only one palm
width away from the edge of the cliff. Zhong Yi held him and scolded him, but
in fact, he didn't even dare to force it, he was afraid that Zhang Xingzhi
wouldn't stand firm and end up taking both of them down.
Zhang Xingzhi obediently turned around
and put Zhong Yi down. Zhong Yi's feet could not be move at, his arms could barely
tremble, looking at the re-closed branches behind Zhang Xingzhi, he was still a
little afraid, and his heart was pounding again.
Originally, this man had guessed Zhong Yi’s
mood and planned it on the way to bring him here in his arms. He had asked
Master Zuo to change the route to Zuo Dao Mountain in the morning itself. Mostly
from that time on, he had planned to find a place with a better view and promised
himself to dispel last night ’s anger, but Zhong Yi really didn’t figure out this
person’s intention and Zhong Yi apologized without realizing this person's
apology. Now that he had scared him so much, what happened was just enough for
him to remember for a lifetime.
Zhong Yi rubbed his chest and glared:
"Hello, give me some preventive shots ..."
But he didn’t know where Zhang Xingzhi ’s
self-confidence came from. He was so angry, and he dared to laugh when he was angry,
and asked him: "What is so funny?"
"Huh?" Zhong Yi now felt that
either there was something wrong with his ears were or Zhang Xingzhi had simply
lost his mind.
How come this man came up with a straight
question: "Are you still mad at me?"
Zhong Yi: "?"
How did your grandma teach you to
coax? Zhong Yi really wanted to rip open Zhang Xingzhi’ s head this time
and see what was inside.
As a result, Zhang Xingzhi saw him react like
that, and as if he got the answer, he looked down at his foot on the ground and
asked, "Do you need my help to stand firmly?"
To be honest, Zhong Yi was unable to figure
out what kind of medicine Zhang Xingzhi was trying to sell. After listening to
his question, he subconsciously answered: " I can stand firmly."
"Are you sure?" Zhang Xingzhi
said with a hint at his leg.
Zhong Yi also thought for a moment, and immediately
git annoyed, staring at Zhang Xingzhi and emphasized, "I'm sure, I don't
have weak legs."
"Okay, wait for me." After
talking Zhang Xingzhi walked towards the trees to the side and Zhong Yi didn't
know what to do.
When he came back, he carried a stone
with a flat surface in his hands and placed it at the feet of Zhong Yi. The
size was not too small, but just enough for Zhong Yi to sit on it by himself.
After helping him sit on the stone, Zhang Xingzhi squatted down beside the
stone.
Zhong Yi wanted to ask him why he had
brought him here, he was startled by the sudden openness before his eyes.
When he was standing before, he
patronized his calm heartbeat. Now that he sat down and he found out that the
dense branches had blocked the top view. Now that he was squatting, he could
see the high cliffs directly from the spot, and the towering peaks were of various
shapes. At a glance, Zhong Yi figured out the mystery.
"Those two are ... they the lover
peaks you told us about on the road before?" Zhong Yi looked at the two
peaks facing each other, one was high and the other one low, and a small peak
at the top was connected by the branches of trees on the mountain, it seemed as
if two lovers were kissing.
"Yeah." Zhang Xingzhi raised
his hand and pointed towards the peaks on the side. "That is Tongzi Peak
and Wusha Peak at the end. Lovers Peak and Tongzi Peak are close. In Yun County
there’s a tradition that newly married couples, the day after they get married,
they climb Zuo Daoshan mountain to ask for children. "
Every time Zhang Xingzhi pointed towards one
peak, Zhong Yi looked at the them one by one, and the mountains were right in
front of him and were all facing them directly, and they were very clear.
Tong Zi peak looks like a round child
sitting on the ground. As for Wusha..., Zhong Yi did not respond to the first
two words at first, but at a glance he could see that a part of the mountain
top and the bushes looked as if it was a black gauze hat.
Zhang Xingzhi: "When the child
reaches the age of ten, the family of three climb the Zuodao and Wu Sha mountains
once again, meaning that the child will fly to Huang Tengda when he grows
up."
Zhong Yi was a little stunned, but he
really didn't care much about him getting angry, because these were obviously
not Zhang Xingzhi’ s forced interpretations to cheer him up. They were indeed to
an extent to which eyes will feel like they are.
He had always known that China Mountain
International was famous and attracted many foreign tourists every
year. In order to build momentum, almost all scenic spots would give a variety
of mountains a name and an allegory. Yun Xian was no exception, but when he saw
it with his own eyes, he still couldn't help but feel terrible about the nature.
Zhong Yi suddenly remembered and spoke: "How come I
feel that this place has a better view than the observation deck above?"
He glanced a few times at the top of the
mountain, probably because of the difference in the altitude. The observation
deck above looked down at these mountains, but this place was just right, and
even the distance was inexplicably visually closer. It felt lifelike right in
front of you.
Zhang Xingzhi stopped for a moment, and
then affirmed his conjecture: "In fact, that is indeed the case."
Zhong Yi immediately burst out laughing:
"You left the kids at a place where the legend says that it is the best viewpoint,
and then you ran with me to the actual viewpoint? Really is this something that
an honest person would do?"
A smile flashed in Zhang Xingzhi’ s condensed
eyes: "I can only guarantee your safety."
At the end, he squatted beside him and
asked, "Are you still afraid of the heights?"
Zhong Yi slowly looked at him, as the
distance was probably about one leg wide, and then carefully felt his calm
heart before answering: "This is okay."
He felt that because he had already been trained
by Zhang Xingzhi in the past two days, whoever looked up just in the air and
looked at the distance now would feel extremely safe.
"But don't do this for me
anymore," Zhong Yi said, warning Zhang Xingzhi’ s strong shoulders.
"I'm not much younger than Liang Sili, and my heart can't stand it."
"Ten years old." Zhang Xingzhi,
"He is ten years older, and you are only five years older than me."
Smelling the jealousy, Zhong Yi couldn't
help but say: "Are you jealous?"
Even Liang Sili remembered that he was
forty-three years this year and did not do less homework at a glance.
"But this calculation, you and Liang
Sili are 15 years apart." With that, Zhong Yi also looked at his
predecessor with an unbelievable look. "Is it a temperament problem? Although
I am only a few years older than you, I always feel that you are very young,
and I am in the same generation as Liang Sili. "
But Zhong Yi knew that, aside from the
two years of Zhang Xingzhi’ s break, the name Candy had been standing firmly in
the circle for five or six years. Now counting, Zhang Xingzhi was actually only
20 years old at the time, just like Leo.
Zhong Yi couldn't help but feel:
"When I was twenty, I was still an intern in a film and television
company."
Facing the heavy mountains with wide
vision in front of him, Zhong Yi raised his lips and smiled softly and frankly:
"You are too young, very enviable."
Hearing here, squatting beside him and
watching Zhang Xingzhi outside said, "I just got lucky."
For extreme sports, it is indeed 99% strength,
plus 1% of luck, but it often plays a major role, that is the 1% of luck, a lifesaving
help that wanders on the edge of death.
Zhang Xingzhi: "In extreme sports,
you don't have to think about anything in your head. You can become famous in just
one battle. Unlike you, it is difficult to be acknowledged by others."
Zhong Yi said: "How can you compare it
like that, at least if we make a mistake, it is nothing more than just losing
some money, no matter how bad it is to break some assets, it is particularly not
difficult to try to find a chance to start again. If you make a mistake, it just
takes a few years."
"Not the same. Many times, once we
start, there are only two paths, either life or death. The only place that can
be discounted is to retreat halfway and wait until we are ready next
time." Reading is the easiest thing to do. In exams you can always get a
perfect score as a ceiling for 'good', but your 'good' has no boundaries. How
well you can do it depends on real persistence and hard work. "
Things without caps are always the
hardest.
It was the first time Zhong Yi had heard
someone speak about living life so simply, he laughed a little: "Your
bullshit suddenly reminded me of what happened seven years ago, when I was two
years younger than you. I could count more potential stocks. "
If someone insisted on treating him, Zhong
Yi had no other way. Even with Liang Sili's protection, it was impossible to
pin him on the belt at all times, so Zhong Yi would always eat to keep them
from moving. After the loss, he would do everything so that they could to retaliate
back.
Zhong Yi showed a self-deprecating grin:
"Maybe I was really too vengeful. Even if I would kill an enemy a
thousand, I would retaliate for 800."
In this regard, his resume was no worse
than those serious film and television people.
"Our business is actually looking at
the scenery. The layman feels that he is very powerful after making TV shows
and movies, but in fact almost everyone is a liar, and it is a mandatory course
to eat boredom. Then it is also true that I was so mad at a time that I got so
angry for the first time and I was so anxious that he would never want to hear
my name again in his life. "
At this point, Zhang Xingzhi had probably
confirmed that Zhong Yi was now talking about the thing linked to the
"blocking drug", but he still didn't ask much, but just listened
quietly.
"It may be that the lack of virtue has done a lot, and
I have experience. At that time, I thought about how to retaliate him. It was
really a blink of an eye." Zhong Yi said. words."
"What did you say?"
"I said that one day, I will do…from
now on, until I go downhill all the way, "so that he would better avoid
going out at night." At this point, Zhong Yi laughed at himself, thinking that
he couldn't figure out how he could be so crazy at the time.
Zhang Xingzhi suddenly said: "Then
the letter my parents left me is very suitable for you."
"Ok?"
"There was a sentence in the letter,
in English." Zhang Xingzhi, "What does not kill you, makes you
stronger."
The things that can't kill you will only
make you stronger.
Zhong Yi raised his eyebrows slightly,
and said to himself, "Is it Nietzsche?"
"Yes," The Other Side of Good
and Evil ". Zhang Xingzhi squatted beside him. "Nietzsche felt that
people who couldn't bear extreme pain couldn't have extreme happiness. He linked
this to climbing a mountain. The closer you get to the top of the mountain, the
more tiring it is, the harder it gets to breathe, but the scenery at the top of
the mountain is always the best. "
Zhong Yi refuted quickly: "Nietzsche
cited Schopenhauer as his confidant, but Schopenhauer advocated that the
stronger the desire to survive, the more painful it would be for the person.
The only way to get rid of these pains was to be clear-hearted."
"No, Nietzsche only agreed with the
first half of Schopenhauer." Zhang Xingzhi didn't take it at the same
time, and said, "People who want to be happy but are afraid of misfortune
do not understand the premise of misfortune. If you want happiness, you have to
accept misfortune, if you don’t want to accept it, you should not be
extravagant for happiness, and abandoning one’s desire is a coward ’s behavior.”
This time, Zhong Yi couldn't help but be
surprised. He looked at him: "Do you like reading?"
Zhang Xingzhi only said: "It's was impossible
to talk about, and the electronic equipment was not popular in the past, and
there was nothing to do in the mountains. So, I just read some miscellaneous
books. My grandma likes to read books."
"Nietzsche and Schopenhauer are not
miscellaneous books." Zhong Yi smiled and said very eloquently, "I've
seen your grandma before I know what kind of person can teach you things like
these. Your grandma is very influential."
"But I said these things not for you
to praise me and my grandma, Zhong Yi." Then, Zhang Xingzhi bent his leg
and fell on one knee towards Zhong Yi, and kneeled in front of him, "I
thought for a long time last night, how should I explain to you that I just didn’t
have the habit of telling people things, and I didn’t mean to conceal which
made you misunderstand, but I later found out after I listened to what others
said and framed myself. ”
Zhong Yi froze.
Zhang Xingzhi: "I like you. Even if
there is no necessary connection and I don't join the group. Even if I promise
you to go there for other reasons, it doesn't mean that I don't really like
you. You reminded me yesterday. Yes, I just haven't turned the corner yet.
"
Zhong Yi: "Let me remind you of something..."
"You said that liking you was just a
matter of myself, so if I like how do you have nothing to do with other people
and how they think about it, and they all think that you are looking for me to
shoot things, so you must use me, and not like me. "Zhang Xingzhi looked
up at Zhong Yi's eyes slightly and said very seriously," Mr. Zhong also
taught me this time very well, like this kind of thing, all you need to do is
to be conscientious and not back off... "
With that said, Zhang Xingzhi took Zhong Yi's
hand again and concluded: "So when I found out that you were angry last
night, I was actually a little bit happy."
Because I found that I "like"
you more than simply, when you get angry.
Zhang Xingzhi: "I'm very happy,
Teacher Zhong."
Zhong Yi looked at the man in front of
him for a long time and was unable to speak. He had to admit that when Zhang
Xingzhi said the first sentence, he regretted it.
Regarding the matter of not trusting himself
too much, he had warned Dean Jiang and Zhang Xingzhi, but he forgot to warn
himself. He didn’t think about him and Zhang Xingzhi coming to his
hometown. It could really just increase the probability of Zhang Xingzhi’ s grandma
agreeing.
Zhong Yi found himself unable to say it
to Zhang Xingzhi. He found himself being a bit reluctant...
Zhang Xingzhi saw through his thoughts
almost instantly: "Ms. Zhong can't bear to see me take up such a difficult
task and shoot?"
Zhong Yi paused for a moment: "I
just don't want to let your interesting little old lady to be alone."
Zhang Xingzhi didn't break, and the
corner of his lips bent gently towards both sides.
Zhong Yi emphasized: "I'm serious."
Zhang Xingzhi nodded, and attached a serious
look: "I know, but suddenly my conscience found that I will not tell the
dean that you have double standards."
The two looked at each other, and Zhong
Yi finally couldn't help but laugh out loud, and said, "You helped me keep
a secret, then I will tell you a secret?"
Zhang Xingzhi readily accepted:
"OK."
Zhong Yi deliberately stung them that
Candy was so sweet, he must not have heard why love was a cruel thing.
As a result, Zhang Xingzhi connected
without even choking one: "Wang Siheng's circle of friends had sent it, it
was misleading."
I don't know where the red sentence came
from. Whatever cruel love is, the cruelty reached its peak at the moment he
happened.
Zhang Xingzhi stated very peacefully:
"I don't talk about other peaks, but at least every time I see you orgasm,
I feel so."
On top of the mountain.
Wang Siheng, they just wanted to help Lao
Zhang keep his secret to take Mr. Zhong out and go happily, because these two
people laughed too loudly.
No, to be precise, Teacher Zhong laughed
too loudly.
If it wasn't for the app that was too
accurate in the range of activities planned by Lao Zhang, these people were
afraid that Lao Zhang would find out that their positioning was wrong, and they
did not dare to find it in the past, and listened to the corners, so why now under
the railings of the crowded and squatting people from the viewing platform, he
tried to hook his neck.
It mainly depended on the positioning on
the app. The position seemed to be quite symmetrical, just below the
observation platform.
But Wang Siheng couldn't figure it out. What
did he say to make Teacher Zhong so happy? Obviously, the two of them were
arguing, weren't they?
"Are you still unfamiliar with this
kind of thing?" Fang Lu squatted next to the railing of the observation
platform side by side, squinting his eyebrows. "That's because you can't
resolve the contradiction in front of you, and when no one looks at it, what
else the problem cannot be solved. "
Wang Siheng immediately closed the app,
and only Li Jiang, who was still chasing him, asked why.
Fang Lu was about to answer his question
and was frightened by Wang Siheng's violent voice: "Quickly, everyone get
up, Lao Zhang is coming back!"
As the leader of a class, Wang Siheng
consciously took the burden of letting everyone off, and only a few eyes did
not pay attention to it, how come the two highly overlapping red dots on the
app were coming back, Lao Zhang ran too fast.
If Lao Zhang comes back and finds that they
were trying to listen at the foot of the wall, it could be estimated that the
entire class really did not need to pass, and no one from Ding Runnian, extreme
photography, or junior college will have to think about it.
Later, on the way back down the mountain,
Zhong Yi was in charge of Zhang Xingzhi alone, but this time from a horizontal
cross to a back.
A group of students in the back, even if
they knew that Zhong Yi's feet were fine, they still tried their best to
cooperate with the performance. After all, the rolled-up trousers were sturdy
and swollen, so a big piece was always true. They wanted to ask why he saw a
doctor and he did not do take any medical measures.
Early in the evening, it was good to have
food together. Wang Siheng took the lead in standing at the entrance of the
hotel and waved farewell. He let Mr. Zhang take someone back to avoid, avoid,
move, move, and eat early, late, rest and rest.
In fact, Zhong Yi was a little hesitant
and asked in Zhang Xingzhi’ s ear, "Are you not tired yet? I feel like you
are tired all over."
"It's okay." Zhang Xingzhi said
with a blushing heart, "You are lighter."
In terms of endurance, he was indeed not
bad. It was not a continuous and vigorous exercise in a short period of time.
If you only walk, it was not a problem to walk for a whole day.
Zhang Xingzhi looked at his ankle that
came out from his waist: "There is no problem with the foot. After we go
back will do some cold compressions and you will be able to reduce the swelling
by tomorrow."
Zhong Yi yawned on his back:
"Actually you can put me down now, I think I can walk too, and it's more
than enough to cross the path."
I don’t know if it was his illusion. He feels
that everyone ’s eyes were a bit weird along the way home. Someone asked Zhang
Xingzhi to talk, and Zhong Yi couldn’t understand: “What are they asking?”
Zhong Yi didn't understand, and it wasn't
a horizontal hug. Why would a big man carry another big man?
Zhang Xingzhi answered truthfully: "They
asked me where I was going?"
Zhong Yi was even more confused: "Where
can you go if you don't go home?"
Zhang Xingzhi’ s eyes were filled with a
smile, and he didn't explain it. He just followed the way: "Well, so I
said you're going home."
Zhong Yi: "?"
However, the closer you were to Zhang Xingzhi’
s house, the fewer people were on the road.
While walking on the long series of
steps, Zhong Yi couldn't help but asked again: "How many steps are there
on the way to your house?"
Zhang Xingzhi did not answer, "Do
you want to count?"
Zhong Yi was completely ridiculous:
"Can you climb holding me? There are at least a few hundred steps."
Zhang Xingzhi only said: "Do you want
to count? I want to count, and you can climb on my back."
Having said that, Zhong Yi ... really
wanted to count.
In fact, he was a bit unbelievable. Did
this person steal spinach from his back, could his physical strength be so
good?
Before he came up, Zhong Yi thought that
the first peak he could see at the bottom was almost the end. When he actually
counted, he was only four hundred steps up there. He stood looking upwards and
turned downwards. There was a small high slope after turning.
When the second uphill was counted, Zhong
Yi could not count anymore. The number was too large. He was afraid that he
would count wrongly when he silently counted: "Come on you count; my mouth
is dry."
"It’s okay."
Zhang Xingzhi was like a perpetual motion
machine who did not know how to get tired. He was also carrying a person on his
back, and the stairs were also climbed by him. Now he was counting too.
Zhong Yi heard the growing numbers behind
him, and he was already thoughtless.
When Zhang Xingzhi counted to 959, the
two finally stood on the commanding height of the second-high slope.
Zhong Yi was wondering if there were a
thousand steps here, and he was taken aback by an old lady who looked back at
them under the steps. The immobile appearance was obviously waiting for them
for a while.
Zhang Xingzhi, who was carrying someone,
was accidentally caught by the unexpected hand of his grandmother, almost
confiscating his feet and going back down the stairs.
Being caught by the elders in such an
intimate posture, even if Zhong Yi comforted him no matter how good they were,
there was still some guilty conscience in the old lady's gaze.
Only if they had climbed one or two
hundred steps now, Zhong Yi would definitely persuade Zhang Xingzhi to quickly
go back and take the elevator, but now there was only the last small part left,
and Zhang Xingzhi could meet his grandmother's eyes, and continued carrying
Zhong Yi until she finally stood in front of them.
Before the two had time to explain, Zhong
Yi listened to the words of Grandma asked him, "Did you count how many
steps are there at our house?"
Thinking of the number he was about to
answer, Zhong Yi froze for no reason: "If there was nothing wrong, is it
... 99? 99?"
The old lady no longer answered. She
turned and walked towards her compound, and the two had only had time to hear
an unclear meaning: "It's really promising."
The author has something to say:
"What does not kill you, makes you stronger."-Nietzsche's "Good and Evil"
