Chapter 67: Eternal Life
Chapter 67: Eternal Life
Lan was actually quite badly injured in the door. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ info It's all the way back. Who knew that after coming back, not only did he not get treatment and rest immediately, but he and the fat man loaded a cow fork in the snow for most of the day. Instead, he made himself almost hang.
A few days later, Lan was barely able to get off the ground. And at this time, the frostbite caused by the fat man kneeling in the snow for so long that day was also good. I wondered if it was time to ask Lan something with the fat man. But when I went around to the fat man's room, I found that the fat man was still as depressed as he had been a few days ago.
The fat man glanced at me standing in the doorway, and then at the stool in the room. Meaning let me sit.
I went in and sat down and looked at the fat man: "I said, can you have a little backbone?" People are dead, and you're sad now that there's a use for fart. β
The fat man snorted and didn't speak. He lit a cigarette and leaned against the head of the bed and smoked.
I frowned. Ever since I met the fat man, I've never seen him so scrappy.
"What the fuck are you in this state now? Where is the momentum of Lao Tzu who was the first in the world before? I took the cigarette off the fat man's hand, threw it on the ground, and stepped on it to extinguish it.
The fat man stared at the flattened cigarette on the ground with dumbfounded eyes. After a while, the fat man muttered to himself: "Although the fat man's motto is Lao Tzu's first in the world, do you know what the creed of life is?" β
I shook my head.
"Modest."
"......" I suddenly felt that the old fat man had returned. It's just that he still looks a little out of shape now. And I didn't think the jokes were funny.
I patted him on the shoulder: "Lan is also benevolent and righteous for you." You don't know, she couldn't get out of bed and walk around until this morning when she came back. β
The fat man nodded and let out a long sigh of relief: "I know." β
"Let's go see her tomorrow. By the way, I would like to ask if I want to know. I said.
"Okay." The fat man nodded.
Early the next morning, I went to the main hall to offer incense to the Buddha statue. I'm now used to incense. Before, it was to pray that Lan would come back soon. And these days, I didn't think about anything when I was incense. It's almost a blank slate.
After the incense, the fat man walked in. Also coming in was Ran. I tried to help her, but she didn't get inside. Instead, he sat in the doorway against the door frame.
The fat man's face is much better than yesterday. He winked at me, then walked over to the statue himself, took a futon and sat down.
I nodded and asked Lan, "Huh...... So what, are you a little better? When I said this, I felt as if I didn't specify the object of this sentence. So he tentatively called out again: "Lan? β
Lan Mian looked at the snow-capped mountain outside the temple and glanced back at me slightly: "It's okay." β
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward. Lan's sentence is fine, it seems to be rejecting me. Gives me the feeling that she doesn't want to talk right now. I didn't know how to ask her for a while. But fortunately, the fat man was clever, and he helped me at this time: "Eh...... Sister Lan. Didn't you say we'd wait for you here? It can't be that we are here to eat fasting and chanting Buddha, ring the bell and incense, right? "Just give me a look.
When I saw it, I hurriedly echoed, "That's right." And I thought you were just a few days late for us. I didn't expect it to take so long. We-"
"Just ask." Lan interrupted me.
I choked and reflexively went to see the fat man. The fat man rolled his eyes at me. It means that I have given you the beginning, fat man, and the rest will come by yourself.
I nodded, took a deep breath, and gathered my thoughts slightly. The first question was asked: "Is it true that the monks in this temple said that you were here decades ago?" You planted the linden tree at the door? When I finished asking this question again, I saw that the fat man plucked out a stalk and threw it at me. I looked over and saw that the fat man was asking me what the fuck was wrong with his mouth. I told him not to worry, I'm a bit of a mess right now. Just ask whatever comes to mind.
"I've been here." Lan said, "I also planted the trees. β
I was stunned: "Huh? Have you really been here? That...... That, thatβ"
"I know what you're asking." "The reason I've been able to stay the same as I was at the time was because I was exposed to that thing. β
As soon as I heard it, my heart said that there was a play. He hurriedly asked: "Then the thing you came into contact with, is it a secret that everyone in the outer eight lines wants to find?" β
Lan nodded: "This thing may be a little unreal to you." But it actually exists. After saying that, Lang paused for a moment, and then continued: "I am the best proof of this." β
"Can you tell me, then, what the hell is this secret?" I asked.
"Eternal life."
"Eternal life?" I was stunned for a moment, and I didn't react to the corresponding word. Just go and see the fat man. But the fat man seemed to have known what Lan was going to say. At this time, he was looking at me with a calm face. When he saw that I was puzzled, the fat man explained: "Hey, to put it bluntly, it is immortality." Got it? β
I was speechless: "There really is this-uh, this-...... Ability? "I didn't know what to say about it for a while. I don't know whether to describe the word eternal life as a thing, a power, or a phenomenon.
"This secret is one thing." Lan said, "Every one of the eight outer rows wants to get it. Saying that, Lan turned her head to stare at me: "Especially you people who steal the door." β
"Huh? Why? I was stunned: "It stands to reason that this kind of thing should be what every line wants, right?" Why is the door theft more special? β
At this time, the fat man suddenly interjected: "Because this thing of eternal life is something that you steal the door - oh no, it is the thing of your Wei family ancestors." β
I was stunned again. The heart said, why does this have anything to do with my Wei family again?
A word of clarification needs to be made here. The Wei family is not the only one who steals the door. The Wei family is just the core of the thief, that is, the family that plays a leading role. As for the periphery of the burglar's door, there are often some families with other surnames. And these families will often obey the dispatch of the Wei family and engage in actual tomb robbery operations. This division of labor has been around for a long time. According to the current parlance, it is called the Jia Lama. The Wei family, as a feng shui physiognologist, released the information after stepping on the location of the ancient tomb and gathered people. Therefore, the Wei family is the chopsticks in the lama. And those families on the periphery of the Wei family who actually go to the tomb and take things from the tomb are called lamas.
