Chapter 285: Life and Death
Mankind's pursuit of life and death has never stopped, and it is also something that cannot be clarified until the development of science and technology in the pre-nuclear era.
Where did humans come from, some say it was the evolution of the ancient ape, some say it was a single cell from the ocean, and some people say that it was born with the water in the Big Bang, so where did the ancient ape come from? Where do monomeric cells come from, how is water formed in the universe, and how does the universe nurture life...... Wait, no one can explain it clearly.
And where do you go after death, will you disappear here, or will you go to the legendary underworld and heaven? Or dust to dust? Dirt to earth? Still no one can figure it out.
Life and death, it is no exaggeration to say, is a mystery that human beings can never solve, if the mystery is really solved, then there will be no fear in the world. Because you know how to come and go, what else is there to worry about and be afraid of?
When Lin Kong held a withered branch and told people to demonstrate life and death, the audience showed disbelief and even ridicule.
However, when they saw the withered branches in Lin Kong's hands slowly sprouting, spitting out new leaves, and even the green leaves were shady, everyone was silent.
"Oh! Oh, my God! This...... How is this possible? ”
"It's incredible!"
"Fake, certainly fake, completely contrary to the laws of nature."
At this point in the performance, it was not as frightening and curious as Max's performance, but he made everyone fall into deep contemplation, and the next scene completely changed the minds of those who did not believe in God.
Because just as the dead branches and leaves are flourishing, death is quietly coming, and the bamboo leaves begin to slowly wither, wither, and fall with the wind.
Some of the leaves fell into the hands of the audience and slowly weathered... Rotting..., one can even smell the faint smell of bamboo leaf rancidity.
At this moment, people have a strange feeling, as if death is around everyone, so close, so real!
"Oh! oh my god! It's also amazing. ”
“Oh shit!”
Some people think it's too weird, pat off the dust of bamboo leaves, and keep wiping their hands, for fear of infection and something like that, they think it may be some kind of chemical ingredient that may be harmful to people.
But while they were still wiping their hands desperately, the dust that fell on the floor quietly seeped into the cracks of the floor, and was about to sprout, breaking through the stone slabs and forming bamboo shoots.
"Bang ......"
More dust fell to the ground, and the floors in several places made a "thump" sound, and the bamboo shoots drilled out at a speed visible to the naked eye, quickly rising from the ground and spreading their branches......
In less than three minutes, there were eight or nine clusters of spotted bamboo forests on the square, everyone who saw it was dumbfounded, and Max even stepped forward to check it himself, but the result was extremely shocking, it was indeed China's bamboo---- spotted bamboo!
At this point, Lin Kong's performance was over, but there was no applause on the field, not even exclamations, and it was extremely quiet.
"You...... How did you do that? Mike suddenly came back to his senses and asked in surprise. But the stage is empty, where is the shadow of the forest.
"What about people? What about people? Where have the people gone? Will Mix screamed frantically, and only then did he realize that not only had Lin Kong disappeared, but even the two men who had been with him before were gone.
"Why buddy, if you're not convinced, you still want to compare with others?"
In the crowd, I don't know who said such a sentence, the implication is self-evident, you have completely lost, and no matter how much you compare, it is just a humiliation.
“NO... NO... NO! NO! NO! As if he was crazy, Max shook his head from side to side, slowly knelt on the ground, and cried: "There is help! We are saved! It's not magic, it's definitely not magic, he's a god, a god sent by God......"
No one in the room knows magic better than Max, and no matter how good your props are, no matter how pure your tricks are, you can't escape his eyes.
Seeing that Mike didn't look like he was mad, the people around him slowly stepped forward and checked the bamboos.
"It's bamboo!"
"Well, that's right, it's indeed Madara Bamboo."
Those who had personally examined it made judgments, and others even brought in digging tools to pry the slabs open and pull them out along with the roots of the earth and bamboo.
"The roots and the soil are tightly combined, and the bamboo bumps have begun to decay, indicating that it has grown into its current state over a long period of time, and it is estimated that it has been at least three or four years." The person who spoke with the bamboo head was the cleaner with the broom.
"The old man's family has grown spotted bamboo since childhood, and he will never be mistaken, and these bamboos will not grow into this climate without several years of hard work." Uncle Cleaner saw that some people were skeptical, and added.
Perhaps there were still some people in the crowd who were skeptical, thinking that Lin Kong must have used some technological means that they didn't know about to make such a strange scene. But most people are convinced that only God can do this!
Just when everyone was talking about whether Lin Kong was related to the situation in China, Lin Kong and his party were surrounded by a large group of people.
There were about twenty or thirty of them in this group, all in blue kaftannels, ranging in age from seven or eight to eighty or ninety years old, and on the surface, they looked like a group of actors filming costume dramas.
But in fact, these people are very human, and all of them exude a true aura that obscures their vision, making it difficult for people to see their faces clearly from any angle.
"Daoyou is Lin Kong, right?" An old man with silver hair and a silver beard asked.
On the surface, the old man looked to be eighty or ninety years old, with goosebumps and crane hair, and he looked like he was about to die. In fact, his steps are light, his eyes are bright, and his physical condition is many times better than that of ordinary prime.
Like everyone else, he first looked at Lin Kong carefully for a while, and after he couldn't know that Lin Kong was in the realm of cultivation, he stepped forward very cautiously to say hello.
"Hmm!" Lin Kong snorted lightly, and didn't say much to the other party, he could see that if these people hadn't been able to look at his cultivation, I'm afraid they would have done it a long time ago, and they wouldn't talk nonsense with him at all.
Although ordinary people can't see the origin of this group of people, they can't escape Lin Kong's eyes, if the guess is correct, they should be the so-called Protector Guard, because these people are real monks.
Seeing that Lin Kong was silent and ignored, the old man felt a little unhappy, and coughed lightly: "Presumably Lin Daoyou has already guessed our identity, since this is the case, the old man will not beat around the bush." Daoyou openly showed his magic in front of the world, I don't know what the intention is? ”
"Are you questioning me?" Lin Kong asked lightly, his tone revealing a chill, obviously dissatisfied with the old man's arrogant mentality.
"Huh...... This old man, I'm afraid you misunderstood Brother Lin, in fact, ......"
"Whew... Wow..."
Yu Fei just wanted to explain, but Lin Kong threw his long sleeves and directly pushed him and Jin Feng out a few zhang away, and quickly formed an invisible partition wall within more than ten zhang around, making it impossible for the two of them to move forward.
"Lin Daoyou is really good, with a wave of his hand, he can place a ban in a space of more than ten zhang, and his cultivation has at least reached the foundation building period, right?" After the old man was a little startled, he smiled slightly.
In his opinion, the ability that Lin Kong showed was at most a mid-stage cultivation of foundation building, which was not a little worse than him, so those previous worries disappeared.
As for Lin Kong himself, he didn't seem to care about the cultivation realm, neither denying nor objecting, and turned a deaf ear.
"Ancestor, this person is too arrogant, do you want to let the juniors teach him a lesson?"
Just when Lin Kong put on a soft and hard posture of not eating, ignoring the sideways, and the old man also seemed a little unable to hold back his anger, a middle-aged man wearing a robe with gold and silver edges suddenly moved his lips and asked for the old man's opinion.
The middle-aged man was about thirty-eight or nine, he looked vigorous and vigorous, and his cultivation was at the peak in the later stage of foundation building, except for the old man and a round-faced woman, he was counted as the highest in cultivation.
The middle-aged man proposed to teach Lin Kong a lesson, which was originally unintentional, but in order to obey the anger in the old man's heart, the old man hummed lightly and responded: "Hmm! That's good! Yang Su will let you try the depth of this person to see if the other party is as unfathomable as Ruobing said, but you must master the proportion, now is the time to employ people, and you must not hurt the harmony. ”
"Yes!" Yang Su was obviously a little surprised, probably because he didn't expect to be flattered and flattered, but the old man readily agreed, the matter has come to this point, and he can't find an excuse to regret it, so he has to bite the bullet.
In fact, the National Protector Guard is no different from the cultivation sect of Lingyun Continent, and the internal struggle is also very fierce, but due to historical and environmental reasons, the competition between them is more shy, and it is not as blatant as those monks in Lingyun Continent, which can be seen from the face of the round-faced woman whose cultivation is second only to Yang Su.
While the old man nodded in agreement, and Yang Su stepped forward with some hesitation, the corners of the round-faced woman's mouth twitched slightly, and there was a contemptuous look in her eyes.
According to Lin Kong's estimate, if it weren't for the presence of the old man and the others, the round-faced woman would definitely sarcastically say a few words to Yang Su.
"Lin Daoyou, look up for a long time! Under the surname Yang Mingsu, is the captain of the first brigade of the National Guard, I have heard for a long time that Lin Daoyou's cultivation is unfathomable, and from a foreign land, presumably the exercises and methods are very different from ours, today I am fortunate to meet, Yang Su has the courage to ask for advice or two, and I hope to teach! ”
Yang Su looks rough, but his mind is very close, and his words are more like reading poetry and books, and the words are modest, implying pearls!
He Yang Su thought that Lin Kong would be like him, and he also pretended to say a few words of greeting, saying something like "how dare you dare, fortunately you will be lucky".
Unexpectedly, Lin Kong raised his eyebrows, and said coldly: "Yang Daoyou wants to try the next means, so he said it clearly, why do you have to act so coyly?" ”
"You ......, good! Very good! Since Lin Daoyou said so, Yang Su learned from Daoyou. ”
"Sparring? Hum! With your current cultivation, still... No... Match! Lin Kong's last three words were deliberately stretched very long, and the contempt was clearly visible.
"Arrogance!" No matter how literate Yang Su is, he can't withstand Lin Kong's slander, he feels that his face has been lost, he shouted angrily, and immediately took out a ring the size of a basin.
"Xianbao!"
Seeing the ring in Yang Su's hand, Lin Kong was taken aback, he never thought that in the hands of a small cultivator who had only cultivated to the foundation building period, there would be a magic weapon of the level of immortal treasure.
