Chapter 598: The Eternal

I waited a little anxiously, and couldn't help but speak first: "Luo Zhongxing is the mastermind behind the funeral sect?" ”

But Lao Dao didn't answer my question, but just said: "Xu Fu's secret of immortality is Luo Yun's blood, his blood can make people immortal when used on others, but in himself, it is a reincarnation of three thousand years." Do you remember the Jizo Tomb, but do you remember the 3,000-year-old reincarnation of the Night Demon? ”

Of course I remember there, and I have never forgotten the ten-year appointment with Sensitivity.

But how could this old Taoist in front of him know what we had experienced in the Jizo Tomb?

I asked him, "What is the relationship between Luo Zhongxing and the Night Demon?" I've seen the murals in the tomb, but it doesn't say that Luo Zhongxing has any connection with the night demon. ”

The old Taoist held the teacup and said with a smile: "Mural? Have you ever wondered whose hand the murals in the Jizo tomb are from? ”

I carefully recalled the scene that happened at that time, and the conversation with Mindu, and it took me a long time to respond, "Isn't it the Daredevil's biological mother?" ”

The old Taoist said, "Is she alone?" ”

Me: "And Luo Zhongxing, who also participated in the painting of the mural?" ”

Old Taoist: "Why do you think he has such bloodline?" ”

Me: "Because of the Daredevil?" Did he get anything out of the Night Demon? But isn't he from the Qin and Han dynasties? ”

Old Taoist: "Then according to you, who has the ability to build such a library pavilion in Jisoul Village?" ”

I didn't speak, but I already had the answer in my heart.

The old Taoist then asked me: "Do you know, why there is a Kyushu Ding in this world, and why there is a Yin Jade?" ”

I shook my head, and the old Taoist smiled and gave me an ambiguous answer: "Because of the reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao, three thousand years will return to the throne." ”

I asked him what he meant by this, but he didn't answer, but said, "Li Zifu split a piece of jade into nine parts and sealed it in nine tombs, do you know who is the person who asked her to do these things?" ”

"Luo Zhongxing?"

"It's Luo Yun," Lao Dao sighed: "But do you know why he did such a thing, and why did Li Zifu help him?" ”

I still shook my head, looked out the window, and said lightly: "People's hearts will always change." If the heart is not destroyed, he is a god, and if he loses his heart, he will become a demon. Luo Yun had long expected that there would be this day, but he lost to himself after all, and his reincarnation was afraid that it had already been broken. ”

I asked the old Taoist, "What happens if reincarnation is broken?" ”

Lao Dao took a sip of tea: "That's all I say, you guys go back." ”

I leaned over, grabbed his arm and asked, "What is Luo Zhongxing going to do, where is Luo Youfang, and where are the three tombs?" ”

Lao Dao still didn't answer my question, but said: "Nine Great Tombs, Luo Yun was originally unable to enter, but now his reincarnation has been broken, and many things are unpredictable. ”

As he said this, his voice became farther and more erratic, and the contents of the room became blurred.

I still have a lot of questions to ask, but the stars are already changing, the heavens and the earth are changing, the clouds in the sky are floating rapidly, rising and falling, and the grass on the ground is quickly taking root and sprouting and withering rapidly.

At that time, I felt as if I was still in the house, but these scenes, which I saw from standing outside, were a little dizzy. While I was still conscious, I asked the last question: "Who are you?" ”

"It's just a wisp of remnant soul between heaven and earth." The voice of the old way echoed far away.

The light around me gradually dimmed, and the voice of the old Tao echoed in my ears again: "Luo Youfang, right where it all began." ”

As soon as the words fell, my eyes suddenly darkened, and when I opened my eyes again, I found that I was still standing in front of the gate of the Shangqing Palace, Liu Shangang, Liang Houzai, Xian'er, Luo Fei, Li Renfeng, everyone was there.

I kept looking around, my head was still a little dizzy, Liang Houzai and they also had a stunned expression, I heard Xian'er muttering behind me: "Okay, Duanduan is dreaming?" ”

I asked her, "Have you seen that old man too?" ”

Xian'er nodded, she looked a little overwhelmed.

I looked at Liang Houzai and Liu Shangang again, Liang Houzai also nodded at me, and Liu Shangang said, "Why did we come back?" ”

"Have you seen the old man too?" I asked Liu Shangang.

Liu Shangang said: "I saw it, not only did I see it, but he also knocked me unconscious with one slap and put me in a wooden house...... And, moreover, you are ...... We were in the same dream just now? Is that a dream? ”

It's not a dream, I'm sure, it's definitely not a dream!

At this time, two or three tourists walked in front of the door, and one of them was a man wearing a brightly colored down jacket, I remember him, when he came up just now, he walked behind us, a few dozen meters apart.

Their walking speed is not slow, and it is only a matter of tens of seconds to catch up with us, that is to say, what happened just now happened in these dozens of seconds? But I felt like it was longer than my life.

I beckoned to Li Renfeng, who was facing the door, and only came back to his senses when he saw me waving.

I asked him, "Have you also met the old man?" ”

Li Renfeng nodded: "He is a silent Taoist, and it is recorded in the ancient books of our Soul Village that the twenty-generation patriarch of the upright line once asked him about Fantianyin." The book says that the patriarch's experience at the beginning was almost the same as ours: 'Talking overnight, it is like a lifetime'. ”

I haven't seen this ancient book, but it's possible that I glanced at it and forgot its contents.

Luo Fei asked me again: "What do you mean by what the silent Taoist said?" ”

My mind is still very confused, and I can't answer Luo Fei's question now, and besides, I don't fully understand the words of the old Taoist.

I patted Liu Shangang on the shoulder: "Go." ”

Liu Shangang: "Where to go?" ”

I said, "Soul Village, I'm going to go back and check something." ”

On the way from Luoyang to Jisoul Village, a few of us repeatedly scrutinized what the old Taoist said, and Liang Houzai speculated that the "reincarnation" in the old Taoist's mouth should mean that Luo Zhongxing's lifespan was originally only three thousand years, and the so-called broken reincarnation also means that he has obtained eternal life in the true sense.

In other words, for Luo Zhongxing, immortality does not mean eternal life, just living longer than others.

There is a good chance that Liang Houzai's inference is right, because he is always right.

Liang Houzai said, after thinking about it a little bit according to the words of the old Taoist, I know that my first ancestor and Luo Zhongxing knew each other. In the hundreds of years when Luo Zhongxing had just gained immortality, he may still be a decent person, and at that time, he probably thought that he might lose his heart one day, so he entrusted the first ancestor to build nine tombs and seal nine pieces of yin jade. Those broken jades with pure yin qi should be some kind of guarantee for Luo Zhongxing to maintain the operation of reincarnation.

As long as Yin Yu is still there, no matter how he changes, he will not be able to escape the constraints of reincarnation. Or, only by collecting the nine pieces of Yin Jade can he get out of samsara and become a true immortal.

I think the former is more likely.

After all, if the role of Yin Yu is to help Luo Zhongxing get out of reincarnation, instead of letting the First Ancestor seal the Yin Jade, it is better to destroy them directly, and it will be a hundred.

The words of the old Taoist seem to have a deep mystery, and Liang Houzai can't completely decipher them.

In fact, what I am most worried about now is not Luo Zhongxing's affairs, but Luo Youfang's whereabouts.

Lao Dao said that Luo Youfang is where everything began, Liang Houzai has analyzed, saying that this place may be the place where Luo Zhongxing was born, or it may be the Jizo tomb where the night demon was suppressed, and those two places are the starting point and turning point of Luo Zhongxing's life.

And Liang Houzai believes that the place where everything started is most likely Luo Zhongxing's birthplace. As for the Jizo Tomb, my Uncle Liu and Uncle Ke are guarding there all the year round, and Mr. Sun also goes there often, if there is anything abnormal, we should have gotten the news a long time ago, but when the ghost baby entered the sect, the two uncles just went through the motions like all the people in Jisoul Village, everyone talked and laughed, and Liu Shangang also felt that they had nothing to worry about.

From Henan to Sichuan, all the topics we talked about were confined to this small circle, Liu Shangang stopped to rest a few times halfway, I was anxious, I wanted to go back quickly, he said that driving for more than four hours is fatigue driving, his driver's license has been deducted ten points, in case he is caught this time, it will be troublesome.

It wasn't until noon the next day that we returned to Jisoul Village, Li Renfeng ran to the Jade Villa to cook for everyone, and the others rushed straight to the library pavilion, I asked Liang Houzai to take Liu Shangang and Luo Fei to the outer pavilion, it is said that the outer pavilion usually rarely lets people in, but I can't manage so much now.

After Liang Hou took them to the outer cabinet, I took Xian'er to the dry well in the backyard of Jisoul Village, I asked her to wait for me outside the well, I went to the cabinet alone, and when Li Renfeng came over with food, she helped me bring lunch into the cabinet by the way.

Although Xian'er is not a member of our Soul Village, when she was my companion soul, she followed me into the cabinet, and since she has entered once, I am not afraid that she will enter the second or third time.

Walking through the spiritual spring and opening the Sansheng stone gate, I trotted all the way to the library, and found the bamboo slip with the deeds of Luo Zhongxing written on it from memory.

I looked at the text carefully, lest I miss any details.

"Luo Yun, the line in the word, when he was young, he raised filial piety, gave up the weak crown and entered the mountain gate, and repaired the ...... of Shiquan Avenue"

The above first gave a brief summary of Luo Zhongxing's life, and then talked about some small details of his life.

For example, before entering the mountain gate, he took the young people in his hometown to build embankments, reclaim wasteland, and go up the mountain to clear the mountain spirits and wild monsters. Later, it was said that his father was seriously ill, he took the risk to go to a big family to steal, was hunted down by officers and soldiers, and took refuge in the mountains with his family.

It wasn't until the second year of Zhenghe that the witch Gu case broke out, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty wanted all the people related to the case, and the local big family reported Luo Zhongxing to the government, saying that he was related to the witch Gu case. It wasn't until Qiu Dao asked him that he learned that his relatives had been captured, but it was too late, and the officers and soldiers discovered his whereabouts and wanted to arrest him, but at that time, Luo Zhong was already profound, and the officers and soldiers couldn't hold him and let him escape.

For a long time after that, Luo Zhongxing did not appear again, until the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the world was in turmoil, Luo Zhongxing appeared again, and became a strategist under Zhang Jiaozuo, and then the Yellow Turban Uprising failed, and Luo Zhongxing disappeared again.

While looking at the words on the bamboo slips, I speculated about when and where Luo Zhongxing was born.

The bamboo slip said that he had "raised filial piety", but the filial piety system began in the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, but the old Taoist said that Luo Youfang had participated in the painting of the murals of the Tibetan tomb.

The murals in the Jizo tomb were painted under the instruction of Jiang Taigong, and the date should be in the early Zhou Dynasty, a full thousand years away from the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
