Chapter 501: The Fate of the Pig

Wow!

With a strange sound, the entrance of the ancient tomb opened, Tang Xiaosheng carried a bucket of rice porridge, entered the ancient tomb, and after bypassing a small path, he came to the door of a secret room.

Through the door of the secret room, you can see that a man is being held in the secret room, and he is Yin Zhiping. Yin Zhiping's eyes were slightly closed at this time, sitting cross-legged on the ground, as if he was cultivating internal strength.

"Ahem!"

Tang Xiaosheng coughed.

Hearing the sound, Yin Zhiping's brows moved, and he knew that someone had brought him food, so he immediately opened his eyes and said, "Miss Gan, you come to ......" As soon as the words came out, he suddenly stopped.

In the past two months, it has been Gan Nineteen Sister who has delivered food to him, and Yin Zhiping mistakenly thought that Gan Nineteen Sister was here. As a result, when he looked closely, he found that the person standing in front of him turned out to be Tang Xiaosheng.

"Uncle Shi!" After seeing Tang Xiaosheng, Yin Zhiping's face was overjoyed and he exclaimed excitedly. Since he was imprisoned in the ancient tomb, he hadn't seen Tang Xiaosheng for two whole months.

"Disciple to meet Uncle Ancestor!" Yin Zhiping hurriedly stood up from the ground and said respectfully, "Uncle Shi, where have you been these days, why haven't you been seen all these days?" ”

Tang Xiaosheng asked rhetorically: "Where do I go, do I have to report to you?" ”

Hearing this, Yin Zhiping was slightly shocked in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Of course not, the disciple is just concerned about the safety of his uncle and ancestor." ”

"You'd better care about yourself first!" Tang Xiaosheng opened the door of the secret room, walked in, put the rice porridge on the ground, and asked, "I let you think about it here behind closed doors and reflect on yourself." Two months have passed, how are you reflecting? ”

Yin Zhiping said: "Return to my uncle." These days, the disciple carefully recalled what he had done in the past and conducted a profound self-examination. In the future, disciples must take this as a warning, and they will not repeat the mistakes of the past and do things that insult the teacher. ”

"So, you've come to your senses?" Tang Xiaosheng asked lightly.

"I don't dare to say it, but the disciple does have some experience." Yin Zhiping explained, thinking to himself: Uncle Shi must have come to test me today, and I must be cautious in answering his questions. If I can make my uncle happy, maybe I can leave this place and regain my freedom.

Just thinking about it. Then. Tang Xiaosheng interrupted his thoughts and asked, "Okay, let me ask you a question, and you have to answer me honestly." ”

"Uncle Shi, please ask. The disciple must answer truthfully. Yin Zhiping said.

Tang Xiaosheng asked: "What do you think is the meaning of human life?" ”

Yin Zhiping was stunned. It was a big surprise. He always thought that Zhou Botong was a fun person, but he never thought that Zhou Botong would ask such a painful philosophical question today.

It's just that since Zhou Botong asked, Yin Zhiping didn't dare not answer. After thinking about it, he replied cautiously: "Returning to the master and uncle, the disciple feels that if a person wants to live a meaningful life, he should be kind and helpful, so that his life can be worthwhile. A hero like Guo Jing who serves the country and the people should live the most meaningful life. ”

As soon as he heard this, Tang Xiaosheng felt that Yin Zhiping's outlook on life and values seemed to be quite positive, and asked: "So, you also want to be a hero for the country and the people?" ”

"Yes." Yin Zhiping said affirmatively, thinking to himself: Uncle Shi seems to be really testing me today, I must answer the questions carefully, try to follow his old man's wishes, and not make him angry.

Tang Xiaosheng's face did not change, and asked, "You won't be perfunctory to me, right?" ”

"Of course not. Everything the disciple said was what he thought in his heart, and there was no lie. Yin Zhiping said with an oath.

Tang Xiaosheng said: "Okay, in that case, I now have a big thing I want you to do that worries about the country and the people, are you willing?" ”

Yin Zhiping didn't think about it, so he agreed: "Although Uncle Shi instructed, whether it is going up to Dao Mountain or going down to the sea of fire, the disciple will not hesitate!" He felt that since Zhou Botong had something important to let him do, he must be ready to let him go, so he asked with concern, "I don't know what Uncle Shi wants his disciples to do?" ”

Tang Xiaosheng said: "This is a major event that benefits the country, the people and all mankind!" ”

Hearing what he said, Yin Zhiping suddenly became even more curious.

Sinking deeply, Tang Xiaosheng said: "You and I have inexplicably crossed over to the realm of the modern world, but the reason for the crossing is confusing and still unknown. It's obviously not okay to have such a big thing happening and not knowing the reason for it. If the crossing events occur frequently, wouldn't it be a great chaos in the world? Therefore, I am going to spend some energy and seriously study the causes of the crossing phenomenon. ”

Yin Zhiping nodded, patted his ass and said: "Uncle Shi cares about the people of the world, thinks about the world, is far-sighted, far-sighted, and the disciple has been taught." ”

Tang Xiaosheng was unmoved, and continued: "To carry out research work, it is natural to have research objects, or research samples. Since we are now going to study the phenomenon of crossing, we have to find a few crossers as samples for scientific research. He turned to ask, looked at Yin Zhiping, and asked, "Xiao Yin, what do you think?" ”

Yin Zhiping understood what he meant, and agreed: "What Uncle Shi said is very true! To study the cause of the crossing, it is true that several travelers should be found as samples for study. As far as I know, in the modern world, many science laboratories have some guinea pigs in order to facilitate scientists to conduct tests. These mice played a crucial role in the research effort. ”

After a pause, Yin Zhiping frowned and asked Tang Xiaosheng suspiciously, "Uncle Shi, it's just that where are we going to find the samples for the traverser to do the experiment?" ”

Tang Xiaosheng sighed and said, "You're right, it's too difficult to find a traverser to use as an experiment. Until now, I know that there are only two people who can travel through the Dao, me and you. Therefore, if you want to find a cross-border as a sample, you can only ......"

Speaking of this, he turned his head and looked at Yin Zhiping again.

Hearing this, Yin Zhiping's heart trembled, and he instantly realized something, and asked weakly: "Uncle Shi, you won't treat me as a guinea pig and then conduct research on the crossing phenomenon, right?" ”

"It seems that your brain is not too stupid, and your reaction is quite fast. Yes, that's what I mean! Tang Xiaosheng nodded and confessed. After a pause, he continued, "I was worried that you would refuse to be a guinea pig, but after hearing you swear that 'go up to the knife mountain, go down to the sea of fire, and don't give up', I was relieved." ”

"Uncle Shi, disciple ......" At this time, Yin Zhiping's face showed a little embarrassment. Said a little slurred.

Tang Xiaosheng frowned. asked lightly: "What, do you want to regret it?" ”

"When...... Of course not. Yin Zhiping said duciously. Of course, he didn't want to be a guinea pig in his heart, but if he said what was in his heart, he was afraid of angering Zhou Botong. What to do?

Think about it. Yin Zhiping felt that Zhou Botong might be on a whim. With Zhou Botong's playful personality, how can he calm down and engage in tedious scientific research? Thinking of this, Yin Zhiping felt that his future might not be so bleak. He didn't want to worry about it, so he asked, "Uncle Shi, how long will this scientific research on crossing last?" ”

Tang Xiaosheng shook his head: "It's impossible to say, when the research is successful, it will be over." If you don't succeed, you can only continue to study. ”

Hearing what he said, Yin Zhiping couldn't help but tremble in his heart, and said secretly: If I want to continue researching, wouldn't I want to be a guinea pig for the rest of my life? My fate shouldn't be so tragic, right?

With a roll of his eyes, as if he remembered something, Yin Zhiping immediately asked with concern: "Uncle Shi, how are you going to use me to conduct research on the crossing phenomenon?" I've heard that some science labs will make samples into sections, and I don't think they will be cut ...... Slice it, right? ”

Tang Xiaosheng waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, not for the time being." ”

"For the time being? And what about after that? ”

"Later, let's talk about it later!" Tang Xiaosheng patted Yin Zhiping on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Yin, even if you really want to be sliced in the future, this is a very honorable thing. If one day you succeed in solving the mystery of the crossing. Your contribution will be great, and the sacrifice you made will be remembered by the people of the world. ”

Hearing this, Yin Zhiping suddenly felt that his future seemed to be bleak.

"Okay, since you have no objections, then tomorrow the research will officially begin." Tang Xiaosheng announced.

Yin Zhiping immediately asked, "Uncle Shi, what should a disciple do?" ”

"You don't have to do anything, just eat well, drink well, sleep well, and live well. You just need to be in charge of being studied, and as for the research, I'll leave it all to me. Tang Xiaosheng explained, "Got it? ”

Yin Zhiping nodded: "The disciple understands." ”

"Alright, let's eat! After eating, get some rest. Early tomorrow morning, the study will be officially launched. After speaking, he patted Yin Zhiping on the shoulder again to show encouragement, and then turned around and walked out of the secret room and left the ancient tomb.

Yin Zhiping stood in the secret room in a daze, his eyes were blank, his face was expressionless, his heart was like stagnant water, he felt very desperate, and kept asking himself: Is the value of my life really to be a guinea pig?

……

In fact, not only Yin Zhiping has to be a guinea pig, but Tang Xiaosheng himself has to be a guinea pig. In order to study the reason for the crossing, Tang Xiaosheng not only studied the body and soul of the traverser, but also his own body and soul, and then tried to compare the two, hoping to explore the secrets of the crossing.

The next day, Tang Xiaosheng came to the ancient tomb again and began to study Yin Zhiping's soul as a guinea pig. Tang Xiaosheng once learned about the soul from Nie Xiaoqian, and he had a certain ability to study the soul.

The research work began at 8 o'clock in the morning and continued until 12 o'clock in the evening, when Tang Xiaosheng stopped to rest.

In the early morning of the third day, Tang Xiaosheng came to the ancient tomb again to continue the research work, and once he researched, it was another whole day.

In the next 40 days, Tang Xiaosheng devoted almost all of his energy to research. Every day, in addition to eating, he stayed in the secret room of the ancient tomb to study Yin Zhiping's soul.

During his research, Tang Xiaosheng discovered that the human soul carries a person's memories for decades, and the structure of the human soul is ten million times more complex than the structure of the human body. In the process of studying Yin Zhiping's soul, Tang Xiaosheng made a lot of notes every day and recorded a lot of data about the soul.

In forty days, he used up eleven notebooks of 200 pages.

Despite this, his study of the soul has only scratched the surface, not even the skin.

Tang Xiaosheng had clearly realized that the complexity of the soul body was far beyond his imagination, and even beyond the scope of what he could understand. With his strength alone, it is absolutely impossible to have a thorough insight into the essence of the soul.

It is precisely because of this that after forty days of fighting day and night, although Tang Xiaosheng lost fifteen pounds due to overwork, he has gained little from his soul research work.

Compared with Tang Xiaosheng, Yin Zhiping is much more relaxed. He doesn't have to do anything every day, he doesn't have to think about anything, he just eats and drinks well, lives well, and then acts as a qualified guinea pig.

After more than a month, Yin Zhiping has gained more than ten pounds.

However, those days are coming to an end. Because unconsciously, the time has come to September 1, and Tang Xiaoyu is about to start school again. As soon as Tang Xiaoyu started school, Xiaolongnu and Tang Xiaosheng were able to return to school as fake students, and then secretly protect Tang Xiaoyu's safety.

So, on September 1, Tang Xiaoyu, Tang Xiaosheng, and Xiaolongnu left Guangmingding one after another and went to Jinghua City. Among them, Tang Xiaoyu and Xiaolongnu returned to the Dream Film and Television Academy to attend classes, while Tang Xiaosheng used disguise techniques to pretend to be Ouyang Feng, and then went to meet his son Ouyang Ke.

Since the last time he met Ouyang Ke, Tang Xiaosheng has not been in contact with Ouyang Ke for more than a month, and it is necessary to go and see Ouyang Ke.

As a result, when he saw Ouyang Ke again, he was surprised to find that Ouyang Ke's ambition was really not small, and in just over a month, he had already conceived a huge plan that might affect all mankind! (To be continued......)
