Chapter 320: The Attachment Of Non-attachment
Big Brother, I sat below, like an outsider, quietly watching everything that happened before me.
I thought; this wild boar’s act, isn’t this clearly put on for other parents to see? Just spewing nonsense!
Talk about being enthusiastic about learning, always being the first to participate. Why don’t you just say he buys whatever you tell him to buy, and pays whatever you ask him to pay?
Otherwise, what’s the point of you holding a parent-teacher meeting like this? Who are you trying to fool? Damn it!
After Zhuzhuxia and Zhuzhuxia’s father went on stage, the wild boar, with a smiling face, shook hands with Zhuzhuxia’s father and even said: “Thank you for entrusting such an excellent child to our number one educational institution in the Wuji Realm. On behalf of all teachers and students, I express my highest gratitude to you, Zhuzhuxia’s parent.”
My god, hearing this, Big Brother was really speechless. This kind of speech, representing all teachers and students, he really never tires of using it, does he?
It’s just him alone, saying “representing all teachers and students” here and “representing all teachers and students” there. Who are you representing? Are you just going to say whatever comes to mind?
Zhuzhuxia’s father also became quite interesting, holding the wild boar’s hands and shaking them vigorously:
“Please, it’s all thanks to your excellent education that the child is so sensible. Alas… if you say that, then as a parent, I truly feel ashamed.”
I’ll be damned…
These two sons of bitches are like acting, spewing out fancy words in small talk.
Big Brother quietly activated his Eye of God and shone it on the two of them. Good heavens, no wonder these two were praising each other like that? It turns out they are relatives. This teacher who thanked Zhuzhuxia’s father on behalf of all teachers and students is actually Zhuzhuxia’s second uncle, damn it.
I knew it. No matter how polite they were, they wouldn’t be *this* polite. So that’s the reason!
It’s truly like Old Wang selling his melons, Old Wang and his relatives praising each other.
Old Wang said: “My melons are so sweet, and with such a good mouth as yours, they are a perfect match.”
Old Wang’s relative replied: “Not at all, it’s because I eat your melons that I have such a good mouth.”
…
Er Bai, as soon as Big Brother sees this kind of superficiality, he feels uncomfortable from the bottom of his heart. If it weren’t for Big Brother’s current realm, and if he could just disdain it a little to regain his calm.
If it were in the past, Big Brother would have taken Awesome Duck and left long ago. We’re saying, what kind of good ducks can be raised with that kind of virtue?
However, with Big Brother’s current concentration, he is definitely someone who has seen the world. Such matters in the mortal world have obviously become normal. As the lord of a realm, he really is too lazy to bother.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to, but he doesn’t have the leisure.
Just imagine, what elephant would be bored enough to step on ants for fun?
At most, when the ants are carrying grains of rice and mocking the elephant for thinking a watermelon is too small, he might occasionally tease an ant and say; “You’re so right.” Hehehehe.
In front of cultivators, mortals’ inner thoughts and soul levels can be perceived with just a word or a glance.
If it weren’t for occasionally having a playful mood, or to test if his heart is easily moved, Big Brother rarely engages in excessive entanglement with people of such low frequency. This is because these people lack intelligence, or rather, spiritual comprehension. Not only do they not understand what you’re saying, but they argue fiercely, as if they have a grudge against you and are determined to make you agree with their viewpoint.
If you show a little weakness, it’s over. The next second, they’ll be like a rooster that has won a fight, raising its arrogant little chicken head to express its pride after winning.
If you don’t engage with them, they’ll move aside out of boredom.
But there are also those who are like sticky plaster, endlessly pestering you. At this moment, if you show them Vajra’s Wrathful Gaze, they’ll immediately become as obedient as a grandson, and won’t dare to provoke you anymore. They’ll look at you in confusion.
This requires manifesting the appropriate form at the right time to take effect.
At this moment, after Wild Boar awarded Zhuzhuxia the certificate, he spewed a lot more, thanked several parents on behalf of all teachers and students, and praised some classmates.
Two of them, perhaps for the first time giving gifts, uh, no, receiving awards, were even moved to tears. It’s as if getting an award was as significant as their fathers carrying so many bricks.
After Wild Boar finished praising these children.
I thought he said there were only two things earlier: one to thank parents, and the other to praise children.
As I thought it was all over, I got up and was about to leave.
This is just great. As soon as Big Brother lifted his butt, the activity of catching negative examples began.
Wild Boar directly said to me: “Hey, you, Awesome Duck and Awesome Duck’s parent, please come up here.”
Hearing this presumptuous remark, Big Brother frowned slightly. Are teachers supposed to speak like this? And “Hey, you”? Is he calling a dog or someone?
We just didn’t give gifts, did we? Don’t they even bother with the most basic pleasantries?
Awesome Duck looked at me, his eyes full of embarrassment, mixed with apology.
I smiled helplessly, shook my head, and thought: Alright, I’m just here to go through the motions today. Why get angry with such an insignificant person like him?
So, I gave Awesome Duck a reassuring look.
Then, with neither humility nor arrogance, I led Awesome Duck towards the stage.
When I approached Wild Boar, Big Brother politely extended his fair hand, wanting to shake his hand symbolically.
Unexpectedly, this ungrateful fellow not only ignored me but also glanced at me impatiently, then started speaking on his own:
“Let me grandly introduce to everyone, this is student Awesome Duck, who is bad at everything in our class and ranked last in exams, and his parent.”
Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter:
“Hahahaha, bad at everything?”
“Hahahaha, ranked last in exams.”
“What kind of family? What are their circumstances? Is there any need for someone with this IQ to go to school? Hahahaha.”
“That’s right! If my child were like that, I’d break his legs, hahahaha.”
…
Listening to the ridicule from below, Big Brother glanced at Awesome Duck’s infuriated ashen face and frowned even more.
Damn it! It’s not that Big Brother blames Awesome Duck for being so angry.
Why are the living beings in my Wuji Realm all of such poor quality? They’re all scumbags! Fawning over the powerful and stepping on the weak, offering fake sympathy, I’ll be damned.
It’s just that Big Brother hasn’t been to the mortal world for a long time. If it were my old temper, damn it, I could have turned them all into flying ash directly. At worst, the Void Taiji Beast could have evolved them anew. I’m not as kind-hearted as the Great Dao, which first warns you with natural disasters, or creates a bunch of ailments in your body to torment you.
I cultivate the Path of Freedom. From the moment all thoughts and emotions become my tools, I can do as I please, both in letting go and in holding on. I can achieve attachment without attachment to attachment. It’s already kind of me not to act recklessly, so how can I let the ants in my world bully me?
