Chapter 52: The Land of the Immortal
"Li Chao, do you mean Li Chao, the vice president of the Providence Group today?"
The old man smiled disdainfully: "The vice president of the Providence Group, who is the president? It can't be your father, right? They have never forgotten the events of the past, and they chose such a name, I don't know who among them came up with the idea?"
Mo Yuanshan also walked up to the boulder and interjected: "The president of the Providence Group is Yun Han, and this name should be chosen by him. ”
"I forgot to ask, who are you?"
"My name is Mo Yuanshan, and I am a driver hired by Xiaoxiao, but our car has long run out of gas, so we walked here. ”
The old man suddenly laughed wildly: "If I guessed correctly, Li Chao's little miscellaneous is also here, he is a magic stick, if it weren't for him, you wouldn't be able to find this place, let alone enter the 'Eye of Heaven'!"
Lin smiled and said, "I found this place through a coded letter left for me by my father, and I just happened to meet Li Chao and them. ”
"So that's the case, then let me tell you, Li Chao is not only a god, but also a bastard, a bastard, a conspirator, you have to be careful, if I guess correctly, he must have led people into the realm of light. ”
The old man laughed as he spoke, as if he was very proud and relieved, and then continued: "It turns out that your father has set a trap for him, and this time, he is afraid that he will go to see the king of Hades." ”
Lin Xiaoxiao said in surprise: "Nonsense, although my father and he know each other, they have no relationship, why should they set him up, and my father is not that kind of person, his life is bright and fair." ”
"Above board?"
The old man looked up to the sky and smiled, then suddenly turned around and said angrily: "Your name is Lin Xiaoxiao? Your surname is Lin! Why don't you have the surname Luo, or your surname is Qin! You should be called Luo Xiaoxiao, or Qin Xiaoxiao! Are you really the daughter of Leap Night and his daughter? The daughter of Leap Night and that hypocrite? How old are you this year, tell me quickly!"
The old man suddenly went insane. Lin Xiaoxiao was so frightened that she couldn't help but take a few steps back.
The wind on the boulder was very strong, and Lin Xiaoxiao almost fell off the cliff, but fortunately, Mo Yuanshan hurriedly held on.
Lin Xiaoxiao listened to the old man's words, and was very excited, so he said angrily: "You are talking nonsense, you are not allowed to mention my mother's name, and you are not allowed to insult my father." ”
The old man gradually calmed down, sat cross-legged on the edge of the cliff, and then said to himself: "I see that you are only eighteen or nineteen years old, I think too much." Then let's continue the story, if you don't believe it, it doesn't matter, but in their hearts, they will not find peace until they die, this is the will of God, this is the punishment given to them by the 'Eye of Heaven'. ”
Mo Yuanshan helped Lin Xiaoxiao off the boulder, and looked at the old man facing the light that came slowly, only to see that although he had a long beard and a shawl in his hair, his face was almost the same as that of a young man of twenty years old, but it was a little frighteningly white.
Lin Xiaoxiao and Mo Yuanshan were a little surprised, according to common sense, since he was an alumnus of the same school as Lin Weimin and Qin Fang, he was at least sixty miles away now, but he didn't look like an old man at all.
Mo Yuanshan couldn't help but mutter, "Could it be that this is really the 'Immortal Land'?"
The old man sneered: "Let's call it that, you must be very curious, how can I bring you to the top of the mountain in a hurry!"
"We are indeed curious, is this also an illusion!" Lin Xiaoxiao said as he looked at the old man's back.
The light on the other side of the mountain is getting closer and closer, and the old man continued: "Light produces illusions, darkness is real, we have a pair of black eyes, but we have to use them to find light, just as everything has phototaxis, and people are no exception, but what we find is always only the shadow of truth, the illusion of light! Although all things grow by the sun, the world of light, like neon, although charming, but really fascinating, is the illusion produced by neon. The world loves only the unreal, but is afraid to see the truth, and the truth always exists only in the dark. I am the follower of darkness who is closest to the truth! Do you see the light that is coming gradually, and who of you can explain what this simplest and most esoteric light is, is it material, or is it illusory, and if so, what is it made of?"
Lin Xiaoxiao and Mo Yuanshan were stopped by the old man's question, and they were speechless for a while.
The old man said, "You yearn for the light, but you don't even know what the light is. Let me tell you, the light is really just an illusion in the eyes, and you are only interested in these illusions. Ignorant people can only know the world with their eyes, with their ears, and even with all the organs of their bodies, like ants, they can only see the dirt and dead branches near their nests, and they only believe that they can see, hear, smell, and touch everything, and I, the follower of darkness, know the world with my mind!
Mo Yuanshan interjected: "We don't know your theory, and we're not interested, I just want to know, how did you bring us to the top of the mountain in two instants, and who are you?"
"Ignorant doll, ridiculous. Remember, only in the darkness there is no shadow! Only in the darkness can you know the true body of the truth! And everything in the light is only a shadow of the truth! In fact, I am only pulling you a few steps. As for who I am, you will know when I tell you my story. ”
Lin Xiaoxiao was a little impatient, so she said, "Let's listen to it, then you can talk quickly." ”
The old man glanced back at Lin Xiaoxiao and sneered: "Everyone in the world is bound by the inherent fallacies of their predecessors, do you know that time and space were originally straight lines, and the two of you climbed to the top of the mountain from the foot of the mountain, but walked in a curve, so it was very slow and tiring, and I just walked in a straight line, so I went to the top of the mountain in an instant." ”
Mo Yuanshan said strangely: "According to what you say, that Sun Wukong has a somersault cloud of 108,000 miles, it turns out that he just walked the straight line of time and space!"
"It's understandable, but it's much more than that. In fact, gravity does not exist, but the straight line of time and space under the pressure of material mass produces a space-time depression, and you are all struggling in the pit of space-time depression, so what you are walking has always been a detour. ”
"How can we walk in a straight line in time and space? As you said, wouldn't we be able to travel quickly in time and space, and even pick up objects in the air?"
"Balance! Balance between motions! In this 'immortal land', everything is possible, and there is a gap between the depressions pressed out of various material masses, and this gap is the straight line of time and space. ”
Lin smiled and said, "It's impossible!"
"I'll make you believe it, the answer is below, and before you go in search of it, I want to tell you another story about me and Leap Night. ”
"You and my mother?
The old man ignored Lin Xiaoxiao's question, and continued: "Leap Night and I were alumni of Jinghua University, after a summer rain, I still remember that it was August 16 of the old calendar, we met and fell in love at first sight, but after coming to the Hongya River, everything changed ......."
"You talk nonsense!"
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't wait for the old man to continue speaking, and he became angry.
The old man said angrily: "It was your father Lin Weimin who took away my favorite, he is a third party, he is a hypocrite, and besides, he also took advantage of the leap night to steal my scientific research results! Now his so-called scholarship has come to an end, only to find that it is a dead end, bullshit! So he came back again, but it was too late, the leap month had already left, this is what he told me personally!"
Lin Xiaoxiao shouted: "I don't believe it, there has always been only one person in my mother's heart, and that is my father! You lie! You liar!"
"Why should I lie to you! Besides, you're just an ignorant doll!"
As soon as the old man's voice fell, he pulled Lin Xiaoxiao to the edge of the cliff on the boulder in a flash, pointed to the bottomless black hole below and said: "The answer is below, your father is also below, if you have the courage, go down and ask him in person." ”
Lin Xiaoxiao was restrained by the old man, one foot had already stepped on the outside of the cliff, where did he dare to move the slightest.
Mo Yuanshan was shocked, hurriedly jumped on the boulder, and shouted: "Xiaoxiao is innocent, you let her go!"
The old man laughed, pointed to the side of the mountains and said: "See, the light is about to arrive at the 'immortal land' at the junction of yin and yang, a round trip between light and darkness is ten years in the world, only in this gray area at the junction of yin and yang, time is eternal." I've waited long enough here, light and darkness alternate three times, this is the fourth, and now that the leap month is gone, it's time for me to go, and maybe, on another plane, we can go back to the way we were. Although she failed me, I was consistent and did not fail her!"
As the old man spoke, he wanted to push Lin to laugh.
Mo Yuanshan hurriedly rushed up, wanting to catch Lin Xiaoxiao.
But it was too late, as soon as the old man's hand was released, Lin Xiaoxiao fell into the black hole under the cliff.
