Chapter 146: The Past of Penglai
He looked at Lian Mo through the faint firelight, but seeing that his face was fair, and his face was mixed with joy and pain, for a while, he even complained about the woman's desperation. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
When Lian Mo looked at it, he was shocked to realize that he had unconsciously told this complaint.
Lian Mo smiled meaningfully, "Yes, she has always been so ruthless." ”
Only this time, he wouldn't let her go again no matter what.
His eyes turned a few corners, and finally landed on a certain wing room on the second floor, and his eyes were full of anger, and his anger slowly tormented in his heart.
In the early morning of the second day, Shen Qing hastily ate breakfast in the house and went to the empty room, but when he entered the door, he saw a white figure standing in front of the bed.
Looking at the clear space again, it is being said to be holding a bowl of rice porridge.
"Shizi?" She greeted him stiffly, confusing the purpose of his early morning visit to the empty room.
Lian Mo just looked at her, his lips pursed slightly, and he didn't say a word.
The atmosphere was a little awkward, Shen Qing withdrew his gaze, and instead concentrated on taking the pulse of the Clearance
"It's hard for the prince to come to visit the old man early in the morning."
This sounded like it was said to Lian Mo, but in essence, it relieved Shen Qing's embarrassment. "The master's injuries are not serious, and he will be fine after a few months of recuperation. It's just that......
Your current body is probably not suitable for going to the Jiang family. Clearance nodded in understanding.
Lian Mo next to him spoke: "You guys went to the Jiang family, but it's for Penglai?" ”
Jingkong swallowed the pill handed over by Shen Qing and replied, "Exactly, but now I'm afraid I can only trouble Miss Shen." ”
He looked at Shen Qing apologetically, took out the parchment roll from his arms, and handed it to her, "The old man is incompetent, if Miss Shen can solve this mystery for the people of the world, it will be a great merit." ”
Shen Qing thought about it for a while, and took it, she did this just because of curiosity, and like the clear space, it was the real compassion for the world, and this compassion made her have no way to refuse.
And at this time, Lian Mo said: "Could it be that the master also thinks that there is really an immortality in this world?" ”
Jingkong sang a Buddha name, and then replied: "No, it's not what we believe, it's the people of the world who believe, but this nonsense will make people lose their minds and enter the devil's path."
Only by letting the world see the essence of the matter can we stop killing. ”
"But fools."
Lian Mo snorted coldly, "The legendary Penglai does have it, but is it the art of immortality...... But it is not as miraculous as the world preaches it. ”
When the three people in the room heard what he said, they all looked at him suspiciously for a while, "Could it be that the prince knows something about Penglai?" ”
"I can't talk about understanding, it's just that there is an uncle in the sect who went there once decades ago."
"Dare to ask the prince can you elaborate?" Jingkong asked excitedly.
At this time, Lian Mo turned his eyes and glanced at Shen Qing, who was sitting silently on the side, his eyes were profound, and then he said: "This matter is also from what the master said, about fifty years ago, there was an uncle in the master's family, who was dissolute and uninhibited by nature. Love the Five Lakes.
When he was thirty-five years old, he went out to sea with the fishermen, but later encountered a storm and the group got lost at sea.
After three days of drifting like a headless fly in the sea, I came across an island.
After going to the island, I realized that this was the legendary Penglai Immortal Island. ”
"Are the people of the island really immortal?" Shen Qing couldn't help but ask.
Lian Mo smiled, "It's true that it's not always true, but it's ...... They will not live more than forty. ”
The three of them were startled, Shen Qing and Jingkong glanced at each other, and they both saw solemnity in each other's eyes.
Lian Mo continued, "That Uncle Ancestor and the fisherman were warmly welcomed by the islanders, and they could live forever, so except for Uncle Ancestor, they were naturally reluctant to leave.
Without the help of the fishermen, it would be impossible for Shi Shuzu to find his way back alone.
But it wasn't until three years later, when one of the older fishermen died, that they realized that immortality was real, but immortality was false, and that the inhabitants of the island did not live to be forty years old at all.
Only then did Shi Shuzu make up his mind to leave, he took the fishing boat they had taken three years ago, carried two fishermen who wanted to leave, and headed for land together.
Perhaps they were lucky, the northwest wind was blowing on the sea, but on the fifth day, a few people landed on the border of Southern Chu. I thought that when I returned to my homeland, things on the island would be over.
Who knows, five days later, the few people who came back all died mysteriously, and the way of death was the same, and they died silently in their sleep. ”
"Die in the same way? Could it be that it is still inseparable from Penglai Island? ”
"It should be, because before they left the island, the people on the island warned them that if they left Penglai, their lives would be lost, saying that it was a curse on the island since ancient times.
Shi Shuzu only regarded it as a threat from the islanders, so he didn't take it to heart. ”
"Amitabha, is there such a miracle in the world?"
"So, are you still going?"
He looked at Shen Qing, his cold gaze seemed to look into her heart.
Shen Qing turned his head away and avoided his too sharp gaze, "What does the master think?" ”
Jingkong sighed and motioned for Yan Wei to help him up, "It seems that I have to go to the Jiang family, I just hope that they haven't been completely carried away." ”
Shen Qing nodded, "Master, why don't you rest for another day and wait until tomorrow to go, firstly, there will be more Jiang family members tomorrow, and the five diagrams should be gathered, and secondly, it is always good for you to rest for one more day, but you will inevitably be physically exhausted and injured yourself." ”
After thinking for a while, Jingkong nodded, and then looked at Lian Mo, "I don't know if the prince is willing to come forward?" ”
If only based on his family's words, the people in the rivers and lakes may not believe it.
Lian Mo shook his head apologetically, "I have a royal status, and there are people who know me in the rivers and lakes, it is inevitable that others will not speculate more, and it is not wise for the officials to get involved in the affairs of the rivers and lakes."
In this matter, the master had to come forward. ”
Clearance nodded in understanding.
"Can you show me the picture below, and I'll make sure again."
Clearance is naturally consent.
Shen Qing understood, took the parchment roll from his waist and handed it over.
I don't know whether Lian Mo intentionally or unintentionally, while taking the parchment roll, his fingertips gently swiped across her soft palm, bringing a trace of strange electricity.
Lian Mo frowned, just glanced at it, then accepted the picture and handed it back to Shen Qing, "It is indeed the place described by Uncle Shi." ”
After instructing the clear space to take medicine on time, Shen Qing withdrew from the room, but the small parchment roll on her waist was extremely heavy, she felt a little uneasy in her heart, I am afraid that things will not go as smoothly as imagined.
Lian Mo followed her and said goodbye to the clear space, and the two went downstairs one after the other, and in the quiet courtyard, the begonia flowers bloomed just right.
She stood under the flower tree, and the face of Lin Zhiyan suddenly floated in her mind, and when the begonia flower failed, it was his death day.
The bare hand caresses the pink and white petals, and the gentle touch wraps around the fingertips like flowing water. Five years have passed in the blink of an eye, and the man who is most entangled with her is the one behind her, but after time has passed, why did fate let them meet again.
She turned, a smile on her lips; "Shizi...."
As soon as he called a salute, he was interrupted by the man, "Everyone in the rivers and lakes knows my surname Mo and my name is Qian." There is no prince of King Zhao here. (To be continued.) )
