Volume 6 I Want to Become a Demon and Kill the World_Chapter 296 Lechuan River
I asked this question coldly, and the Bodhisattva Ancestor was obviously stunned, "Fengzi, it's been so long, why did you suddenly think of asking this question?" ”
"I was thinking, if Luo Fan is also one of the five, then Grandpa should also be able to maintain his appearance. Although I don't know why grandpa and they have changed, but Luo Fan and Lin Xiao are alive now, grandpa and they should also be immortal, why did they die? "I still don't believe that my grandfather's death, as he said, was that he wanted natural reincarnation.
I stared into the eyes of the Bodhisattva Ancestor, waiting for him to give me an answer.
Bodhisattva Ancestor looked at me, and then looked around, "In front of you are Lechuan River and Meng Po, Meng Po is not easy to deal with, let's rest first." ”
What he meant was that he was going to have a good chat with me.
I immediately nodded in agreement, and although Jun Lynx and the two blood beasts still wanted to move forward, they had to stop when they saw us sit down. Fortunately, along the way, the two blood beasts, large and small, quickly established a relationship with Jun Lynx, they can not only get along peacefully, but also get along happily, I saw that Jun Lynx was not displeased, so I was relieved.
Bodhisattva Ancestor observed the surroundings for a while, then found a remote place, motioned for me to sit down cross-legged like him, and raised his eyes to look at me, "Fengzi, can you tell me honestly, what did you encounter in the Sansheng Stone?" ”
He stared at me as if he wanted to look into the depths of my soul.
"I was just confused and didn't see anything." This time, I almost didn't hesitate to tell a lie, and then asked, "What, who do you think I should meet?" ”
When I answered this question, the Bodhisattva Ancestor kept staring at me for a long time.
"That's not it, it's just that these three life stones can see a person's past and present lives, I thought you could see something, forget it. By the way, you just asked me who was there when your grandfather died, didn't you? Seeing that I had been meeting his gaze and did not flinch, the Bodhisattva Ancestor finally withdrew his gaze from looking directly at me, and let out a long sigh, "At the beginning, naturally it was me and your third uncle, but later, your grandfather asked your third uncle to go out, saying that he had something to tell me." ”
I immediately cheered up, this matter had been mentioned by the Bodhisattva Ancestor before, but he didn't elaborate on it.
"What did my grandfather say?" I then asked the Bodhisattva Ancestor.
"I also wondered at the time, why didn't your grandfather let your third uncle in, and called me in alone." Bodhisattva Ancestor looked into the distance, his gaze was far-reaching, and his tone was puzzled, "I walked into your grandfather's room, your grandfather was already a little dying, and I asked him if he had anything to tell me. Your grandfather nodded with difficulty, and gave me the ink ruler, saying that I would give it to you as soon as possible. These were your grandfather's last words when he was dying, and I naturally agreed immediately, and as your grandfather said, I hid the ink ruler in my arms. I really wanted to ask your grandfather why he didn't let your third uncle know about it, but your grandfather seemed to have a lot to say to me, and I thought he didn't want to answer my question, so I simply didn't ask again. ”
I nodded, if it was only my grandfather and the Bodhisattva Ancestor who were present at that time, no one would have been able to confirm his words.
"And what about later? What did my grandfather say? I followed up.
The Bodhisattva Ancestor withdrew his gaze from afar and fell on me, "Your grandfather told me that he already knew my identity and asked me to help you." ”
I was stunned, grandpa didn't surprise me by knowing the identity of the Bokong Ancestor, but what surprised me was that my grandfather actually asked the Bokong Ancestor to help me?
"I asked your grandfather how I could help you." This time, without waiting for me to urge, the Bodhisattva Ancestor took the initiative to continue.
I couldn't help but ask, "What did Grandpa say?" ”
The Bodhisattva Ancestor shook his head with a solemn expression, "He only said, let me help you with my heart and treat you as my own nephew." ”
I was stunned and asked, "And then?" ”
The Bodhisattva Ancestor shook his head again, sighed and said, "No, your grandfather said such a sentence vaguely. Later, when I asked again, he saw that he was already a little bad, so I could only quickly call your third uncle and a few of you in. This is our rule, when the old man dies, the more children and grandchildren around him, the better. ”
This is indeed the rule in our area, before the old man dies, the children and grandchildren of the family must be in front of the old man's bed.
"You are the ancestor, do you know what method grandpa used to return to normal life, old age, sickness and death?" There is nothing flawed in the words of the Bodhisattva Ancestor, and I can only ask this question from another angle.
The Bodhisattva Ancestor sighed slightly and shook his head slightly, "Your grandfather has long been tired of swaying between the Three Emperors and the organization, and has always wanted to get rid of it. For him, as long as he lives, there is naturally no way to get rid of them. The only way is to die. ”
I stood up and stared at the Bodhisattva Ancestor - what did he mean was that my grandfather chose to die because he wanted to get out of this predicament?
"As for how your grandfather did it, if you don't ask this question, I really haven't delved into it. They are the five deities, and all of them are highly skilled. After so many years, even if it is really done, it is not a big deal. Ancestor Bokong looked at me and said softly: "Fengzi, you just need to know that I promised your grandfather to help you, and I will definitely help you." ”
I was silent.
"Let's go, there's the Lethe River ahead, right?" After a moment of silence, I began to walk forward.
When the Bodhisattva Ancestor was talking about it just now, I had been listening very carefully, and I had scrutinized almost every word of him, but I didn't find anything suspicious.
Since I didn't find anything suspicious for the time being, I could only pretend that nothing had happened for the time being and continue walking. After walking a long way, I looked back, and the Bodhisattva Ancestor was still standing in place, looking at me thoughtfully, and when he saw me looking back at him, he smiled at me and walked towards me at a faster speed.
"Last time you pretended to be Chen Hao, I haven't told you the second reason why I know you, haven't I?" I was slightly embarrassed, so I had nothing to say.
Jun Lynx was originally playing happily with the two blood beasts, but when he heard me say this, he immediately ran up to me in a few steps and hurriedly asked, "Tell me quickly, what else is the reason?" ”
"Because at that time, I said that Xiaolong was still waiting for us not far away, if it was Chen Hao, he would immediately ask how Xiaolong was doing, but you didn't." I put my arm around Jun Li's shoulders and looked at him with a smile, "Only after getting along for a long time, there will be this tacit understanding." ”
Jun Lynx looked at me with a pair of yellow eyes, as if he didn't understand.
"That's why?" Jun Lynx looked at me for a long time and asked, "Is this tacit understanding good to cultivate?" ”
I was amused by Jun Li's question, and nodded, "Of course it's easy to cultivate, as long as it's brothers, take care of each other, there will be this tacit understanding." Otherwise, let's make a bet and see if we can cultivate this tacit understanding between us? ”
Jun Lynx tilted his head and looked at me for a long time, then nodded, "Okay, bet on it!" ”
I instantly calmed down, knowing that Jun Lynx was curious, and as long as it wanted to know something, it would settle down and continue to move forward with us.
When Jun Lynx and I said this, the Bodhisattva Ancestor had been quietly following us, with no superfluous expression on his face, and I didn't know what he was thinking.
We soon arrived at the Lethe River, the water of the Lethe River is blood-yellow, and there are black insects and snakes everywhere in it. What surprised me even more was that there were black bodies everywhere on the river, and most of them were soaked in the river, and when they saw us coming, they all turned their faces to look at us, and then rushed towards the shore together.
"These are wandering ghosts who have no way to be reincarnated, so they can only stay in the Lechuan River and wait for someone to be a stand-in." After walking to the shore and looking at the wandering ghosts rushing towards the shore, the Bodhisattva Ancestor sighed and explained: "It's just that they have stayed in this Lechuan River for many years, and they have been bitten and killed by insects and snakes all the time, and they can't find a substitute for a long time, and there is no way to enter the six realms of reincarnation. ”
I looked at it, and I saw that the blood-yellow river was endless, unchanged and unbounded, and the river was full of floating insects, snakes, and the bodies of wandering spirits and wild ghosts, densely packed, and my back was cold when I saw it, and my hair stood up one by one.
"Ancestor, this river is so wide, we have no way to cross it." Looking into the distance, I had no choice but to look at the Bodhisattva Ancestor, "This Lechuan River naturally can't go down, how can we go over?" ”
The Bodhisattva Ancestor looked into the distance and said in a low voice, "I'll play a trick first, and Meng Po on the other side will come to pick us up." It's just this Meng Po...... Forget it, be careful in everything, don't fall into the way of Meng Po. ”
