Chapter 30: Lost
Wednesday, December 7, 2016, 9 or 10 p.m. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
At that time, Sanwu was still a bitter haha office worker, drinking late with his boss, taking a taxi home, because his head was really dizzy, and the guidance was wrong, so he got off the bus at the intersection in advance. Fortunately, it was only a few hundred meters away from his house, and he was not too drunk to walk, so he staggered along the road.
Occasionally glancing out of the corner of my eye, I found that there was a used book stall under the street lamp not far away. Sanwuxin said that I saw a lot of this kind of used bookstall when I was a child, but now it is quite rare, so I can't help but go over and take a closer look. The owner of the bookstall is a middle-aged man in his forties, dressed a little shabby, wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, but he looks quite polite. The boss sat on a maza, holding a thread-bound book in his hand, and did not look up when he saw people approaching, and spread out a large sheet of plastic paper in front of him, but there were a lot of old books, stacked into six or seven small piles.
Sanwu squatted down, pulled the pile of books with his hands, and suddenly found a copy of "Research on Chinese Ballad Culture", only to see that the title was also noted next to it: "Attached "Baked Cake Song", "Plum Blossom Poem", "Tibetan Head Poem", "Zen Master Poem", etc." I copied it and flipped through it casually, it is not an academic monograph, but it seems that the information is collected quite completely, and there is still some truth in classification...... He had always liked this kind of mysterious stuff the most, and when he asked the bookstall owner, "How much does this cost?"
The boss raised his head, propped up his glasses, glanced at them, and replied casually, "Thirty." ”
"Wouldn't it?" San Wu flipped through the copyright page and shook his head again and again, "Your book is quite old, the quality is not good, and the book of 98 years old is not worth any collection, the original price is 19 yuan 8, you sell it for 15 yuan to the sky! I want to go to the Confucius Used Books Network, I am sure that I can take it for ten yuan, do you believe it or not?"
The boss smiled: "Online mail order, you still have to pay for postage, I don't need it here." Besides, my buy one get one free book here is definitely worth the money. As he spoke, he reached out and picked up a book that was originally placed under "Research on Chinese Proverbial Culture" and handed it to Sanwu: "Oh, thirty yuan, you take two copies and go." ”
Sanwu took it and took a look at it-"The Supreme Mystery Sutra"? What kind of thing is this, I've never heard of it.
As soon as he frowned, the boss said: "Rumors are ancient mysterious culture, and so is this book, so I packaged and sold it, if you like that one, you will definitely like this one." ”
Oops, I actually read the word "prophecy" correctly, this boss doesn't seem to be simple. Sanwu casually opened the "Supreme Mystery Sutra", and saw that it was a manuscript, his eyes were blurred, and he seemed to see the words "slowly entering, nine shallow and one deep", and he couldn't help but feel refreshed. But when I turned it back and turned it again, I couldn't find which page that sentence was...... When I looked up at the boss, I saw that the other party was looking at me with a smile, as if to say, "I know what you're looking for......
Sanwu couldn't help but be a little flustered, but if you think about it again, even if there is no room for surgery, this kind of manuscript is indeed rare, and the title of the book has never been heard of by himself, maybe it is a rare and unique book. Anyway, thirty yuan is not a burden on me, so I'll buy it!
Immediately took out the money to pay the bill, and then walked home with two books in his hand, and when he passed the next street lamp, he couldn't help but open the "Supreme Mystery Sutra" again...... That's the end of my memory, and I don't remember anything after that, how did I get through? I don't remember at all......
Time flies, and then comes back in an inexplicable circle. In order to avoid trouble and avoid destroying the continuity of time and space, the two basically stayed in the house and did not go out, meditating and practicing every day, reading novels on mobile phones and watching movies on the computer. Zhang Lu found out that Sanwu did not have a lower limit than him in a sense, and even offered to buy a 65-inch large color TV to come back, replace the old 32-inch of Zhang Lu's house, and connect it to the computer for high-definition......
Zhang Lu refused in one bite, saying that even if we don't need much money for daily use, just in case, it's better not to spend all the banknotes. But in the end, I couldn't screw the three nothings, and mail-ordered a PS4 - Zhang Lu gave himself a reason, that was for reference to continue to build the mission system of the Xuanqi world!
Finally waited for the right day, and the two of them went out and went to the vicinity of the National Exhibition to have a big meal. Because there is nothing to say, I have a card somewhere in my house, and I have 70,000 or 80,000 deposits, all of which have been given to you, if you continue to want to stay in the world, you can use it casually - so if you have the little change left, we might as well eat and drink it all.
Then the two of them walked to the vicinity of Xiaoyun Road, and when they arrived at the place, the sky was dark, and it was only more than seven o'clock. The two of them huddled in a corner and looked at the lamppost from afar, only to see that it was empty below, and there were no used bookstalls. The three did not care about it: "I'll chase myself later, you keep an eye on the old book seller, and when you're done, you can get it at my house - with your current ability, you should be able to enter the door without a key, right?"
Zhang Lu frowned: "Do you really think that scene will be repeated?"
"It's not a reappearance, it's the first appearance," San Wu said with a smile, "so we can't easily destroy the continuity of time and space, and we must not show up to make trouble before I buy the book and leave." ”
About eight o'clock and almost nine o'clock, this section of the road is relatively deserted, there are not many vehicles, and pedestrians are gradually scarce, and the two of them are confused, and they don't know where a middle-aged man with glasses suddenly appeared, carrying a big burden in his left hand and a small Mazha in his right arm, and went straight to the street lamp, set up a stall and sat down. Zhang Lu stretched out his hand and pointed and asked Sanwudao in a low voice: "Is it him?"
Sanwu nodded: "Exactly." The voice was slightly trembling with excitement.
Zhang Lu looked at the middle-aged man carefully, although the distance between the two was more than fifty meters, he was now deaf and clear, and even the pores on the middle-aged man's face could be seen clearly. After only a few glances, he couldn't help frowning slightly: "This is a little similar to the beggar who seduced me...... No, they clearly smell the same!"
The smell is cloudy, of course, it is just a metaphor, Zhang Lu's meaning, the bookstall owner and the beggar are similar in appearance, but at a glance they are not the same person. It's just that in his comprehensive senses, he vaguely feels that these are not two people, but actually one person. It's like no matter how much makeup a person makes, it's easier for acquaintances to recognize when they meet.
San Wu smiled and said, "Even if it's not one person and two phases, it must have been created from the same set of mechanics - do you see anything else?"
Zhang Lu sneered: "He is not human, and he has no human smell on his body!"
After waiting for a while, there was a sound of brakes in the distance, and it was not too late, and I saw another Sanwu staggering over. Zhang Lu looked at this person carefully, and said to Sanwu casually: "It turns out that you look like this...... You've made yourself so much more energetic. Sanwu defended: "How can I change my disguise? But at that time, there was only one mortal, and the work was not worry-free, and he worked all day long, so he naturally looked haggard." ”
Next, Motohara Sanwu found the bookstall and searched it, and finally bought two books for thirty yuan. He had just gotten up over there, and Sanwu said to Zhang Lu: "I'm going to follow along, remember to pick it up at my house." Zhang Lu's heart suddenly moved, and he hurriedly asked, "What if you can't come back?" San Wu glanced at him: "If you can't wait, I'll decide to stay by myself, and I'm not a child, do you want me to teach you?"
Immediately, the figure flickered, and disappeared without a trace. Zhang Lu waited until the original Sanwu almost disappeared from his sight, and then quickly ran out of the hidden place and ran straight towards the telephone pole. He watched as the bookstall owner gathered up the bookstall, lifted Mazar up, and got up to leave, as he had done when he came. Speaking of a distance of more than 50 meters, with Zhang Lu's current speed, I am afraid that the other party will run in front of him in the blink of an eye, but the time seems to have been ripped out, and in the blink of an eye, the other party can easily complete so much work......
Fortunately, Zhang Lu finally blocked the bookstall owner, and spread out his hands to stop him: "Don't leave yet, let me see what other books you have." ”
The bookstall owner was expressionless, his eyes were blank, as if he had seen and heard nothing, he didn't pay attention to Zhang Lu at all, and still walked forward by himself, and immediately bumped into Zhang Lu. Zhang Lu felt a huge force penetrate his limbs, and he couldn't help but stumble and fall backwards. The figure was still shaking, and he found that the human scene around him dissipated in an instant, and the bookstall owner in front of him also disappeared, leaving the boundless darkness of light, and the scattered distant flickering starlight......
Damn, did this collision directly knock me out of the world?!
In the void, there is no law of heaven and earth—only the law of the universe, the most basic, but also the simplest—even if Zhang Ludang has recovered the ability of all super-three-dimensional lifeforms. He stared and knew that he was still in some three-dimensional world, and that he had not returned to the super-three-dimensional world—but where was it?
Since he participated in the work of the Xuanqi Realm, Zhang Lu has spent more effort to study the Nether Realm than other heavens and demons, and according to his current exploration, he knows that the so-called Nether is actually many three-dimensional universes, and there are endless planets distributed in each universe, a very small number of planets have life, and even a few planets have given birth to human beings, and even human societies. In fact, the Tianyuan World and the Qingxuan World are in the same three-dimensional universe, but they are far apart, estimated to be more than 30,000 light-years, and the Void World is in their adjacent universe. At present, the one hundred and seven worlds with immortal cultivation inheritances under the control of the Xuanqi Realm are not evenly dispersed in a total of forty-two three-dimensional universes.
But where is the earth? Zhang Lu has searched for it a long time ago, and it seems that in the seventy-eight known three-dimensional universes (thirty-six of which have not evolved to the immortal cultivation society), there is no trace of the earth—is the earth in the seventy-ninth three-dimensional universe? Or is it in these seventy-eight, or even in the forty-two universes, but it is deliberately hidden?
Zhang Lu didn't know if he was catapulted out of the sky by the bookstall owner, still in the three-dimensional universe where the earth was located, or if he was simply catapulted into other universes. He couldn't think about it, so he had to search aimlessly. Although the super three-dimensional world is large, the places he has been to, or the places where he is familiar with the immortals, can be moved in an instant, but in this strange three-dimensional universe, Zhang Lu can only fly in the void - there is nothing in his heart, and he can't go to the natural thoughts.
Although his flight speed is very fast, almost close to the speed of light, for the boundless universe, I am afraid that the long life span of the Poor Immortal will not be able to search for it. I don't know how long it took, the search found nothing—not to mention the earth, and even other living planets couldn't find one—Zhang Lu finally got discouraged and gave up, so he turned his body up, gave up the projection of the three-dimensional world, and returned to the super-three-dimensional world.
Because he didn't know where he had been projected, he was completely outside of consciousness where he returned. Zhang Lu let go of his mind and wanted to find a person or place he was familiar with, so as to determine which quadrant he was in, but suddenly, his mind bumped into an extremely familiar breath-
Ferocious, violent, and chilling at the first touch......
I'm a dragon! Where the hell did I go?!
