Chapter 108: Talks
Luoyang followed Ning and arrived at the main hall in front of Lingzhu Temple. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
At this time, it was evening, during this time period, there were no tourists, in the dimly lit Buddha hall, there were two figures standing alone, one was a little hunched, wearing gray monk's clothes, it was Chen Haixin, and the other person was burning incense in front of the Buddha statue, every move was very pious, there was no bureaucratic style, and there was no iron-blooded toughness of soldiers, wearing a very ordinary, wearing a gray hooded sports sweatshirt, with an amber-framed glasses, giving people the feeling of an ordinary middle school teacher.
Luoyang walked over lightly, although he knew that the person's nervous system had been tampered with by Ning Bei's divine sense, and he couldn't see or hear himself, but he still habitually did it.
When he walked outside the threshold of the Buddha hall, the man inserted the incense into the ash pond and whispered a prayer: "The Buddha bless us and other sentient beings from falling into the sea of suffering." ”
Luoyang was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that this intelligence chief of the military of the republic would be such an ordinary, even a pure person, who could make such a wish, proving that he was not in a good spirit.
He stood at the threshold and did not go inside.
"Even if you are pestle in front of his eyes, he will not see you, won't he go in?" Ning Zhi said.
Luo Yang shook his head, "You can hear what they say when you stand here." ”
Ning didn't say much, and stood outside the threshold with Luoyang.
Chen Haixin saw the two of them, but he seemed to know the intentions of the two, so he pretended not to see them at all, did not show any flaws, and talked to the person opposite.
"When did you convert to Buddhism, aren't party members not allowed to have religious beliefs?" Chen Haixin said jokingly.
This middle-aged man with amber-rimmed glasses is naturally Yang Fan, director of the Second Department of the General Staff.
"I'm not in a hurry to go to the doctor, I'm almost overwhelmed by too many things." Yang Fan sighed, then raised his head and glanced at Chen Haixin, "Zen Master Haixin is not much different from more than twenty years ago. ”
"Where, old." Chen Haixin waved his hand.
"More than 20 years ago, I was twenty-three years old, I was still a lieutenant in the Central Guard Bureau, you were a martial arts instructor, you said you were over 90 years old, then you should be more than 110 years old this year, it really doesn't look much different from back then, I remember it deeply, after all, you also taught me by hand, it's really unbelievable." Yang Fan pointed to his head and said with a smile: "You see that my hair has turned a lot whiter, and the years are unforgiving."
Chen Haixin was silent, the awakened person is indeed a big bug in terms of lifespan, and it is not easy to explain.
Yang Fan suddenly put away his smile and said cautiously: "Actually, I know that you are not an ordinary person, not just a martial artist, martial arts can strengthen the body, but it is impossible to make people immortal. ”
"By your standards, I am indeed not an ordinary person, but I have not yet reached the realm of immortality you said." Chen Haixin admitted.
"So what are you? Immortals, Buddhas? Yang Fan asked.
Chen Haixin smiled and shook his head: "It's just that some genes are different from you humans, so there are some abilities that you don't have, you can call us the Awakened." ”
"Are there many people like you?" Yang Fan asked, and then asked himself: "As far as I know, there should be a lot." ”
"It's a lot, but we're a tiny minority compared to the number of humans." Chen Haixin replied.
Yang Fan nodded, and then began to get to the point, "Are you awakened people who attacked the base of the Roselle project?" Are you involved with them? ”
"From a racial point of view, I am indeed the same kind as them, but the cultivators are also divided into factions and have different philosophies of life, and I am not an accomplice to them." Chen Hai said in his heart.
Hearing this, Yang Fan was much more relaxed, and asked tentatively, "Have you found Luoyang?" Or do you have a clue about him? ”
Chen Haixin subconsciously glanced at the door, and then shook his head.
Yang Fan also followed, but he didn't see anything, there was nothing in front of the door, he sighed softly, and said, "I don't know if Zen Master Haixin can go out of the mountain again and provide some help to the country." ”
Chen Haixin didn't answer directly, and after thinking for a while in his heart, he turned his head and glanced outside the door, as if he was asking for Ning Zhi's opinion.
Yang Fan looked left and right, and saw that there were no outsiders, so he lowered his voice and continued: "Lingzhu Temple has been expanding over the years, it seems that it wants to increase its influence in the religious world, if Haixin Zen Master can contribute to the country, the country will definitely not treat you badly, after this disaster subsides, the country will appoint you as the president of the Buddhist Association, if you want, the next Dalai Lama will also be produced in Lingzhu Temple, the golden vase casting ceremony is controlled by the central government, this is not difficult to operate." ”
Chen Haixin smiled kindly, but still did not make a clear statement, and after being silent for a long time, he asked rhetorically: "I don't know how the country plans to deal with us awakened people, exterminate and imprison?" What do I need to do? ”
"Seeking common ground while reserving differences, peaceful coexistence, the state can acquiesce in the existence of practitioners, but they must accept the supervision of government departments, and the awakened must also abide by the laws of the country, for those who violate the law and discipline, according to citizenship, do not discriminate, this is the meaning of the supreme leader, there will never be 'human Nazism', please rest assured that Haixin Zen Master will not worry, furthermore, if the Roselle project is successful, human beings will have the same ability as the awakened, and we can completely integrate." Yang Fan said.
"Then do you know the purpose of the cultivator's attack on the Roselle project?" Chen Haixin asked again.
"The Roselle gene hides the secrets of high-level lifeforms, presumably you awakened people also covet it, this is a reasonable thing, this matter can be completely sat down and discussed, the country is actually willing to share the research results with you, after all, this matter is ultimately for the benefit of all mankind, naturally including you, and you may be able to provide some help to the project outside of science, attacking the project team, it really shouldn't happen...... It's a pity that things have happened, and the situation has been deteriorating, this matter will not be settled, all those involved in this matter must be punished as they deserve, and the murderer will pay for his life, which has been a matter of course since ancient times. Yang Fan's tone was soft and then hard, indicating the country's position and attitude.
Chen Haixin shook his head: "It's not covetous, it's that I want to monopolize it." ”
"Why? Humans are not allowed to gain as much power as they do? Yang Fan's brows couldn't help frowning.
"This is only one aspect, the most important reason is that the earth's environment does not allow it, practitioners rely on the earth's magnetic field energy to survive, just like human beings rely on oil, why does the United States not allow the rise of the Han and Tang Kingdoms? Because the earth's resources cannot supply the two superpowers at the same time, and similarly, the earth's magnetic field energy cannot supply seven billion awakened people, and 100 million people are considered excessive. ”
This time it was Yang Fan's turn to be silent, but his eyes did not wander at all, and he was still very determined.
"Therefore, the contradiction between the awakened and the human race is almost irreconcilable." Chen Haixin lowered his eyebrows and said, then looked up at Yang Fan again, testing his attitude: "So, will the country's policy be adjusted?" ”
"There is always a solution to the energy problem, but the Roselle project is a key point in the qualitative change of human civilization, we will never give up, the Roselle project will definitely continue, no matter how big the price will be, the result will be achieved, if there are awakened people who want to destroy, although they want to let the horse come, they want to use the mantis arm as a car, and become an obstacle to the progress of history, they will inevitably be crushed into powder by the giant wheel of history." Yang Fan's expression remained unchanged, and he said loudly, with a tough attitude.
These words made the corners of Chen Haixin's eyes twitch slightly, although he was considered a neutral, and now he was even more inclined to the side of human society due to the influence of Ning, but after all, he was a member of the Awakened.
However, these words won the heart of Luoyang.
If the person in charge of the Roselle project was this guy in the early morning, instead of the military committee that did not distinguish between right and wrong and had an uncertain position, how could there be so much.
The Roselle project is a turning point in human civilization, and it has to be done even at a great cost!
Luoyang fully agrees with this point of view, otherwise he would not have been willing to dedicate himself to the Roselle project in the first place.
As for these awakened people who can't eat the past and can't see the situation clearly, they are by no means the hope of human civilization, or even a disaster.
Of course, there are exceptions, such as Bai Hai Toad, Ning Zhi and others, but they are only a very small number and not enough to affect Luoyang's position.
From Yang Fan's words, Luoyang also got some gratifying news that the Luoshen project team should not have been disbanded, but turned bright into dark.
This country, after all, did not disappoint him, and the blood of Liu Hong and others was not shed in vain.
After Yang Fan expounded the core position of 'The Roselle Project cannot be terminated', his tone eased a little, and said: "Of course, the country will not kill everyone with one rod, and I don't think all awakened people are hostile to human society, such as Haixin Zen Master, you should not be so narrow and short-sighted, otherwise you will not see me and talk to me so many things." As long as the awakened people who are willing to merge with human society, the door of our human society will always be open to them, and they will never be regarded as aliens. ”
Chen Haixin didn't reply immediately, turned his head and glanced at Ning Zhi.
Ning Wait's expression was gentle, and he nodded slightly.
Chen Haixin turned his head and replied: "The country's willingness to treat differently and merge and tolerate is really a blessing for the awakened, and it is also a blessing for the people of the Han and Tang Dynasties to have such an enlightened leader in the country." ”
"Zen Master Haixin promised to go out of the mountain and serve the country again?" Yang Fan heard the meaning of his words.
"What can I do?" Chen Haixin asked, and said some words in front: "I'm already old, and I can't do anything about fighting and killing." ”
"I understand this, after all, you are a member of the Awakened, and there are some things that I will not embarrass you." Yang Fan nodded, and then said: "I only need you to provide some information, who is the mastermind of the attack on the Luoshen project, and where are these people hiding?" ”
"I can give you a rough list, but it's not accurate enough, after all, I've only heard about it, but I won't tell you where these people are hiding." Chen Haixin said.
"Why?" Yang Fan frowned slightly, not quite understanding.
"Their hiding place is one of the four major settlements of the awakened people of the Han and Tang Kingdoms, and it is also one of the dragon veins and qi eyes of the Central Plains, and it cannot be destroyed." Chen Hai said in his heart.
"We only arrest those terrorists, we don't target irrelevant people, and we don't destroy the so-called 'dragon veins'...... You shouldn't mind if I call this group of people 'terrorists', right? Yang Fan said.
"That place is a natural danger, and it is guarded by the formation, with all due respect, with my country's existing military capabilities, conventional means of warfare, it is impossible to capture at all, if you want to effectively strike, you can only use strategic nuclear weapons, then it will be destroyed indiscriminately, so I can't tell you where that place is, I hope you don't mind, this is also what you promised me in advance, to treat it differently and not engage in genocide." Chen Haixin said tepidly.
Yang Fan frowned and remained silent.
"And I think it's not right to focus on revenge right now, and it will only exacerbate the contradictions between humanity and the Awakened." Chen Haixin said.
Yang Fan nodded: "What you said is not unreasonable, the matter of liquidation can be put forward a little later, but another matter, no matter what, must be solved immediately." ”
"What's the matter?" Chen Haixin asked.
"In the past month, seven academicians have died unnaturally in my country, as well as more than a dozen top experts, and there are traces of supernatural power at the scene of the crime, which should be done by the awakened." Speaking of this, there was a hint of coldness in Yang Fan's eyes.
Chen Haixin nodded, the Awakened Person's assassination of scholars and experts in the secular world was actually a huge shame for the Awakened, so he never mentioned this matter to Luoyang.
Being ashamed to speak up is one thing, on the other hand, it's useless to mention it, this matter is almost a national movement in the cultivation realm, and it is not something that an individual can stop at all.
But if he doesn't mention it, it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist, on the contrary, this poison has collapsed to an extremely serious point.
"It's a poisonous plan." Yang Fan said in a deep voice, "Although we have increased the protection of academicians and experts, but China's scientific research tasks have been completely disrupted, some projects, and even forced to terminate, and every scientist for the country, society, is a wealth that cannot be lost, this matter must be controlled, the mastermind of this matter, must also be eradicated, I hope Haixin Zen Master can provide some information, if there is substantial help, it will be better." ”
"The participants in this assassination are all radicals who have been incited and demagogic, not a minority, and as for the mastermind, he is a mysterious figure, I don't know where he is and I can't provide you with any information." Chen Haixin shook his head helplessly.
There is no adulteration in what he said, although the 'Avengers' was initiated by Li Ruyi, but he played the banner of Yang Xi, so the spiritual leader of the Avengers is actually Yang Xi, Li Ruyi is not the mastermind at all, even if he gets rid of him, it doesn't mean much.
"As for substantial help, as I said, I'm old, and I don't have much influence in the society of the Awakened, so there's really nothing I can do." Chen Haixin said again.
When Yang Fan heard this, he nodded his head to show understanding, but his expression inevitably showed a trace of disappointment.
At this moment, a voice with hidden anger suddenly came from the door: "I'll take care of this matter!" ”
