Trust is a knife, you give it to someone else, he has two choices, stab you, or love you and protect you. The same thing, if you think about it, it is heaven, and if you can't think about it, it is hell. If you hold the past too tightly, how can you free up your hands to embrace the present?

Yecheng, late at night, in a dim bedroom, Liu Zhen hugged Zhang and his mother, and the two were sleepless late at night. Liu Kuan couldn't help but think of an insomniac night he had many years ago.

That night, Liu Kuan made the biggest determination in his life and chose to trust his mother, because this day was his son Liu Tong's birthday.

That night, Liu Kuan hugged his mother and couldn't sleep. That night, Liu Kuan chose trust, chose to open his heart to Zhang and his mother, chose to make a decision with his previous life, and chose to accept reality.

This woman in my arms, a young lady of a family who grew up in a honey pot, a person who gave birth to a "demon" for herself at the age of seventeen, who is so simple that there is only herself in the world, a person who has endured the secret accusations and boundless worries of gods and ghosts, is it my duty to remove the weight of her from her thin body, which I can feel only myself?

Can I trust her?

Fortunately, the son was born into the royal family, and if it was a commoner's family, he would not be executed as a heretic, but would be worshipped as a god.

As a royal family, it has its own halo, oh, it is the main point of discussion on the streets, and the main point of discussion among the people is far away, such as the existence of colleagues who do not care about themselves.

And the occasion of going in and out with his mother, it is not a royal noble, or a high-ranking family, the wind on the bright side is light, once some words involving his son will make waves in the fragile heart of his mother.

Liu Kuan hugged this delicate woman who regarded herself as the sky, this woman who had just been with herself after the rain and claimed to have ten or eight more sons for herself, this woman who was still secretly blaming herself for giving birth to a demon, as the most egalitarian judge of later generations, concealment accompanied by a sense of guilt.

The lady of the family in this era, the woman who gave birth to children for you in this era, is the flesh that grows on your body, even if your body is rotten, it will not be abandoned, and the spiritual companionship and the body will turn into dust together and become the final destination.

With your mother, although you treat your in-laws respectfully and respectfully serve the three elders, you respect less and fear more, and although you happily amuse this son, you are worried......

With my mother, the three uncles are not ghosts and gods, and your son is not a heretic, and I have been cut off from the past.

You can't bear such torture anymore, I'm going to give you a bright sky to breathe freely in the good years.

Okay, I trust you, I, Liu Kuan, have left the past behind, let me hug you, embrace the reality that I have to embrace......

With the mother, come, with the mother, I will tell you a story.

Nearly 2,000 years later, July 28, 2017 (lunar calendar).

In Heming Mountain, Liu Zhen, Liu Tong, the Five Elements View, the god stick wearing sunglasses, and the earthquake are all on this day, Liu Tong's birthday......

In the dark, Liu Kuan affectionately hugged his mother, this story was told to his mother back then, and after his mother was frightened, he still accepted this story, and cherished his lover and son even more by this magical fate.

Liu Kuan knew that he missed and worried about his son more on his son's birthday, yes, his son has been missing for almost two years, and his nephew Liu Bei will get married in Luoyang in a few days, and he will go to Luoyang to preside over the wedding with his mother, and he will be separated from himself.

Today is my son's birthday again, and at this time, whether it is with my mother or myself, I miss Liu Tong even more. Big River, Big River, where are you? If I had another choice, I'd rather live a plain life with you as a commoner than you leave me! Today is your birthday, and today, do I have to accept another reality, a world that has lost you?

Liu Kuan leaned weakly on the head of the bed, and the past was recalled......

On July 28, 2017, Liu Tong's tenth birthday, Liu Kuan, oh, should have been called Liu Zhen in his previous life, and was traveling with his son Liu Tong in the Heming Mountains of Sichuan, when he unfortunately encountered an earthquake and fell off a cliff from a boulder......

After the earthquake, I don't know how long it has been, maybe a day, maybe a lifetime.

Liu Zhen woke up slowly, but saw that the fog was filled, the sky had just brightened, and the morning light shone on the chaotic soil on the opposite cliff slope, the cliff slope was peeled off, and the soil and rocks appeared.

Liu Zhen hurriedly looked for Liu Tong's traces, and suddenly felt that there was a soft object under his body, and he turned sideways to the side, and saw that his chest and abdomen were bulging, obviously with broken ribs, and at the same time, he saw that Liu Tong was pressed under him, and the large blood stains on the corners of his mouth had dried up, and Liu Tong had already lost his breath.

Liu Zhen pushed Liu Tong, and "Tong'er ......" cried loudly.

After a long time, Liu Zhen endured the pain and hugged Liu Tong's upper body, sat for a long time, sobbing silently, from early morning until noon.

In the afternoon, Liu Zhen slowly woke up, looked around, and saw that he was on a stone platform on the edge of the cliff, the stone platform stretched from the cliff edge to the deep valley for more than a zhang, the surrounding soil and stones had fallen, the edge of the stone platform left moss, grass and tree stumps, and the falling boulder left deep marks.

Liu Zhen stood up and walked into the cave, dizzy, stumbled under his feet, fell forward, and suddenly fainted. Liu Zhen vaguely saw a few human figures, and looked closely and saw four people sitting in a circle, all of them were Taoist priests with buns, three men and one woman, defenseless, surrounded by fragments of clothes, it is estimated that the wind has been seen for a long time, and the weathered clothes are scattered. The four of them sat cross-legged, each pinching their fingers and placing them on their legs, as if they were meditating.

Liu Zhen said sorry, turned around and saw that it was his backpack that tripped over him, so he opened the backpack and took out his and Liu Tong's clothes, one of which was draped on the woman's body from before, and the rest covered the lower bodies of the other three men, and also covered the hands of several people. Liu Zhen took out the flashlight, turned it on and put it on the ground, and the pillar of light shot straight into the wall of the cave, and the hole became even brighter.

The four of them slowly woke up, and the woman first nodded slightly at Liu Zhen, only to see that she looked twenty-seven or eighteen, with slender limbs, a slightly chubby face, and a beautiful face.

On her left sat a man in his thirties with a short and fat stature and a rugged face, as if caused by mites and burns, and on the right side of the woman was a man of twenty-five or sixteen years old, about 1.75 meters and a man with a Chinese face, like a farmer, not fat or thin, very strong.

On the opposite side was a man in his early twenties, the appearance of a scholar, he really couldn't see clearly, I saw him sitting cross-legged, but his head was tilted forward, as if he was languished and paralyzed.

Liu Zhen looked at everyone, the woman looked at him, the short and fat man also stared at him for a long time, but the man who looked like a farmer had white eyes, obviously a blind man, and the scholar kept sitting paralyzed and never looked up.

After a long time, the woman slowly opened her mouth and asked Liu Zhen, who was sitting on the side, "Thank you for the layman, dare to ask the layman, what year is the Han today?" Liu Zhen was at a loss......

Humpty Dumpty raised his voice and asked, "This layman, how many years has he been in the Showa of the Great Han Dynasty now?" ”

Liu Zhen is proficient in the history of the Three Kingdoms, and they obviously asked about the year name of Emperor Ling of the Eastern Han Dynasty, which was around 180 AD. Liu Zhen said: "This year is 2017 AD, and it has been nearly 2,000 years since the Han Zhaohe period. ”

Because he didn't like the tone of the short and fat person, Liu Zhen walked out of the cave and lay down beside Liu Tong without moving, waiting for time to fly.

However, it was said that these people were the five disciples of Zhang Zu and Zhang Daoling's second disciple Zhao Sheng. The short and fat person is the eldest disciple Hua Jun, the woman is the third disciple Wang Bing, the fourth disciple Zhang Li and the scholar are the fifth disciple Yang Bo, and the white bone is the second disciple Liu Zhen.

The experience of the five teachers and the three generations since Zhang Zu and Zhao Sheng is not a secret in the Daomen, although after a thousand years, there are many people in the Daomen who love ancient books and are knowledgeable and explore the secluded, can know a rough idea. The whereabouts of Zhao Sheng's five disciples were unknown later, and it became a strange case in Daomen, but there was also a reason.

It is said that Zhao Sheng created his own Five Elements Formula, and after granting the Five Elements General Formula, according to the different five elements attributes of Hua Jun Shumu, Liu Zhen is gold, Wang Bing is water, Zhang Li is earth, and Yang Bo is fire, he is awarded the Yumu Jue, the Yujin Jue, the Yushui Jue, the Yutu Jue, and the Fire Jue.

After Zhao Sheng's ascension, the five people practiced day and night, and searched everywhere for spiritual things to eat, and killed the spiritual qi to take their inner pills, accumulated over time, the aura of the five people from yellow to blue, and then from blue to purple, after reaching the light purple aura, the five people cultivated to be difficult to enter, but they also have their own magical powers, their faces are slow to age, and the age of fifty years old is stationed in their twenties and thirties. Among them, the second disciple Liu Zhen is the most wise, and he is the first to approach Deep Purple and face a catastrophe.

After the catastrophe is successful, it can fly in the air, and the aura is released several feet away, destroying things invisibly, and it can live a long life.

However, the cultivator goes against the sky, in vain trying to cultivate the true immortal with the body of a mortal, the heavens will descend the heavenly tribulation, the heavenly thunder crosser, need to be subjected to several heavenly thunder, avoid the yin fire incineration, the heavenly thunder is stronger than the other, the more thunder is received, the higher the achievement, and if the yin fire, the yin fire burns from under the spring cave itself, straight through the mud wall, the five internal organs become ashes, the limbs are decayed, even if the thousand years of asceticism, are all illusory.

Therefore, since ancient times, less than one in ten people have succeeded in crossing the catastrophe. Those who have successfully crossed the robbery are often protected by the division commander who has successfully crossed the robbery.

Zhao Sheng Feisheng, the five disciples crossed the catastrophe without one to protect the Fa, Hua Jun and others paid special attention to Liu Zhen's crossing, if Liu Zhen's crossing, the rest of the four people in the future will have deep purple cultivation of the senior brother to protect the Fa, and success will no longer be difficult.

Senior brother Hua Jun then convened everyone to discuss, in the Five Elements Cave where the Five Elements Temple is not far from the practice, Liu Zhen received the heavenly thunder on the Dharma platform outside the cave, and the other four senior brothers protected the Dharma in the cave. At the same time, it was decided that Yang Bo, the fifth junior brother who was good at hiding and good at volleying, went to the Taoist Temple of Zhengyi Alliance in Heming Mountain, presided over by Zhang Daoling's son Zhang Heng, and stole Zhang Zu's magic weapon to use the evil sword to protect the Dharma.

After the male and female slashed the evil sword and stole it, the five of them practiced in the Five Elements Cave day and night, waiting for the thunder.
