267th chapter, I truly regret, looking at her with such cold eyes......

——Liu Guozong Spring Diary, eighty-two

(One), must have sufficient patience......

"The gate locks the apricot-flower deep courtyard, the pink walls rise as high as the blue sky." This apricot blossom blooming within such a walled city—is it fortune or misfortune? Beauty is locked inside the deep courtyard, fragrance blocked by walls as high as the sky—what a devastation and oppression to life! In the late night of spring, I have already walked out of the deep courtyard, far from the walled city, I walk alone on the pitch-black seaside.

Seaside, no moonlight, no starlight. Waves come from far to near, then from near to far. Wavelets, so many tiny living beings full of ** and beautiful, in that boundless ocean, everywhere seeking opportunities to release their ** and display their beauty.

Carrying a bitter taste, the sea breeze blows on those perennial plants by the seaside.

These low plants, whenever the spring breeze blows, the seemingly withered branches turn green again, become verdant; then among those green branches, many inconspicuous small white flowers bloom, or flowers of other colors.

Thus, they begin to beautify themselves in the spring wind and summer rain. They have already been beautifying themselves by the seaside, year after year.

These perennial low plants, all opportunities to display themselves and beautify themselves are waited for. Because they know that as long as they endure wind and rain, as long as they have sufficient patience, opportunities to display themselves and beautify themselves will always come.

They are not like the restless, eager-to-show-off waves in the sea.

Walking on the pitch-black seaside, I am inspired by these low plants before me: one must have sufficient patience to await that splendid morning.

(Two), I truly regret, looking at her with such cold eyes……

The sea breeze blows on my face, making me feel the sea is so bitter and cruel. O sea, human feelings are like you.

The sea replied: "One must have sufficient patience, sufficient endurance. Life is like Lin Daiyu entering the Jia mansion; one must be careful step by step, attentive at all times, not say an extra word, not take an extra step."

"O sea, should we learn from penguins or from sea swallows?"

The sea, speechless in response. Ashamed of its own contradictory words, it gathers a mass of wavelets and drifts away from shore, from near to far.

Gazing at the sea, "the corners of eyes and brows all seem to hold hatred, hot tears about to fall but still held." I truly regret, looking at her with such cold eyes……

(Three), again I think of that devil……

Two or three stars, in the sky, are suspected stars but actually are fishing lights by the seaside; four or five drops of rain, before the eyes, are suspected rain but actually are sea spray blown ashore.

Sometimes we are indeed misled by many illusions before our eyes.

For example, the fisherman fishing by the seaside.

He cast his net to fish by the seaside; the result was no fish caught, but a devil was caught.

This devil, who has done much evil, was two thousand or more years ago placed in a bottle by Suoluomen and thrown into the sea.

It has been suffocating in the dark, damp sea for over two thousand years, fortunately when the fisherman was fishing

And hauled ashore.

The devil bottled up, made a wish to the fisherman: as long as the fisherman releases it from the bottle, letting it see the light of day again, it will give all the wealth in the world to the fisherman.

The fisherman naturally could not resist the devil's temptation—who doesn't want wealth? Especially unexpected wealth, like a meat-filled pastry falling from the sky.

The fisherman's wife is no exception, I am no exception. As long as one is a person, there is no exception.

When the fisherman released the devil from the bottle, the devil immediately changed its tune, speaking aggressively: "Get ready to die how you will!" the devil threatened the fisherman.

Upon seeing the devil reveal its harmful true form, the fisherman was frightened stupid: "This devil, deserving of a thousand cuts, actually repays kindness with enmity. Just moments ago it looked pitiable, but once it gained power it turned hostile and denied anyone."

There are many people in this world more cunning than the devil. To gain your trust, he will use all sorts of honeyed words to deceive you, confuse you, lure you, making you fall into his trap. Once you enter his trap, you are at his mercy to be slaughtered.

Even if not killed, it will make you lose your skin.

For example, multi-level marketers.

But, the devil is after all a devil; the devil's wisdom is forever inferior to humans. The fisherman still used wisdom to make that harmful devil burrow back into the bottle, throw it into the sea, so that this devil no longer harms people.

And he warned the world: no matter what sweet talk the devil uses, one cannot be taken in by it. The more beautifully he speaks, the better the terms he offers you, the more your heart hates, the deeper the harm he does to you.

The east is about to dawn, the sky is about to light; I by the seaside worry about encountering that devil the fisherman bottled, or those devils scattered in the human world; I always worry that my wisdom to deal with devils is insufficient, that I keep falling for the devil's tricks, that I am no match for a seaside fisherman……
