Chapter 52: The Death of Desire
Li Xuyang opened his eyes, only to find that the bronze box containing the immortal seal was already in his arms. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info until this time, he understood that it was not illusory, it was real, although no one proved it for him, but it was indeed true, otherwise the immortal seal was in his arms, how could this be explained?
"You succeeded. Jiang Botong came behind Li Xuyang, looked at the bronze box in his arms and said happily.
"Hmm. Li Xuyang nodded, and then stood up. Wang Chengxin also came over at this time, and now he was able to observe the bronze box up close, and was no longer blocked by it five meters away as before.
"You're really not ordinary people, I'm not mistaken. It seems that I believe in you and it is exactly the right decision. Wang Chengxin also said happily.
"Oh, it's just luck. Li Xuyang said modestly. This success was completely unexpected by him, and he didn't expect that just like this, he would be able to get the Immortal Seal.
"No, no, it's not just luck, it's that it gets your approval, that's why it chooses you. Wang Chengxin looked at the immortal seal and said.
"Maybe!" Li Xuyang replied to him.
"Alright, it's time for us to go. Li Xuyang held the Soul Body Immortal Seal, and then said to Jiang Botong.
"Good. Jiang Botong nodded and agreed.
And Wang Chengxin on the side was a little flustered, didn't he say it at the beginning, and after getting the immortal seal, he would free himself? Could it be that Li Xuyang regretted it?
"Wait, the one surnamed Li, we said okay at first..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Li Xuyang.
"It's true, I didn't regret it, and sending you to the underworld is not blindly sending, you have to follow the rules of this line. It's daytime, and I can't send you, so I can only wait until night. And today happens to be September 18, so I can't do it tonight, I can only wait until tomorrow night. Li Xuyang said.
"Tomorrow night?" Wang Chengxin lowered his head and thought for a while before raising his head and said, "Tomorrow night, tomorrow night." ”
"Okay, but we're going to eat in the meantime, right? We're human beings, and we don't have the strength to eat. Jiang Botong also said on the side.
"There was no problem with the food, it was wrapped up on me. Wang Chengxin patted his chest and swore that he said.
"It's not going to be another 'swoon soup', is it? Jiang Botong put his hands around his chest, twisted his head to the side, and didn't look at Wang Chengxin, this is a snake bite for ten years and afraid of the well rope.
"Hehe, of course not. Wang Chengxin said with a haha on the side.
"Carrion, nor is it our food. Li Xuyang continued.
"I know, don't worry, it's definitely not something that harms you. Wang Chengxin's heart was also happy at this time, and after waiting for a hundred years, he was finally able to be liberated and become a new person.
At night, Wang Chengxin didn't know what method to use, and he didn't know where to get a lot of food. Li Xuyang and Jiang Botong had a big meal. Nothing happened during this period, the only thing that was unique was that Wu Qin had been in a coma and did not wake up. Even if Li Xuyang went to the side to shake, or Jiang Bo kicked him, he didn't react at all.
And Wang Chengxin also scratched his head and explained apologetically, "This shouldn't be! Ecstasy soup can sleep for five hours at most, but it's been two or five hours, why hasn't this guy woken up yet?"
His question is exactly what Li Xuyang and Jiang Botong want to know, if he doesn't know, then they don't know even more.
"Wang Chengxin, you said that it was because of my ancestor Li Tianyang that your family was also implicated and cursed, what is going on with this matter?" And Jiang Botong, who was preparing to sleep on the side, immediately became energetic when he heard Li Xuyang ask this question, and listened on the side.
"I didn't know, I wasn't there. My eldest brother Wang Wu was present, and three months after that incident, I returned to Xin'an, Hongdong County, and when I got home, I saw my eldest brother who was terminally ill. In the past, my eldest brother was always a very energetic person, and he was only in his forties, which is the age when men are like wolves. But in just half a year, my eldest brother has lost a lot of weight. Later, I heard my sister-in-law talk about the incident three months ago, so I realized that this incident should be related to that ghost, and it was also indirectly caused by your Li family. ”
"Coincidentally, at that time, I happened to find out that there is a kind of sacred relic in this world called the Immortal Seal. It is said that it can make people immortal, immortal. So I ignored my eldest brother's objections and insisted on looking for the Immortal Seal, but who could know that I would go, and I would never be able to go back. When Wang Chengxin said this, he smiled awkwardly, as if he was amused by his wrong decision.
"Then didn't you go to see my ancestor Li Tianyang at that time?" Li Xuyang asked again.
"I went, and I was very angry at that time, so I went directly to Li's house and settled accounts with them. But after getting there, I learned that your ancestor Li Tianyang had just passed away. But after thinking about it, your Li family takes good care of our Wang family, and the friendship between our two families is also very friendly, so I went back again, but the hatred did not dissipate in my heart. ”
"And then?"
"Later?" Wang Chengxin touched the top of his bare head, and then continued, "Originally, even if I was half a Taoist priest, I was able to get the Immortal Seal from Lu Zhongyuan and save my eldest brother with the strength of one person. So I pretended to be the leader of the Qing army, and instigated a few selfish guys to make them cannon fodder. But people are really not as good as heaven, and in the end, I lost. Not only did I not save my eldest brother, but I also made myself what I am now. ”
"It's me who underestimated Lu Zhongyuan, and I overestimated my own strength. ”
"No, it can't be considered your mistake, because the Immortal Seal is one. But later, it was divided into two types: soul body and body. Li Xuyang said.
"Oh?" Wang Chengxin glanced at Li Xuyang and said, "I would like to hear about it." ”
"Once upon a time, the Immortal Seal was one. At that time, the Li family and the Lu family had not yet separated, and the Changsheng Seal had not been separated. It's just that later, because of the original clan, it was divided into two families because of some things, and the immortal seal was forcibly divided into a soul body and a shell because of this, and one was kept by the Lu family and the other by the Li family. But later, why both of them were in the Lu family, I don't know. ”
"How do you know this?" Jiang Botong asked curiously on the side.
"It told me. Li Xuyang pointed to the immortal seal in his arms and said.
"You mean it can speak?" Now not only Wang Chengxin was a little incredulous, Jiang Botong became serious. If this immortal imprinted with his own consciousness, then all the consequences would be more complicated.
"Well, in a space I don't know what it is, I saw the Immortal Seal, and it was in the form of a human being. It talks to me a lot, but very little about itself. ”
"It's something amazing. Jiang Botong looked at the bronze box, and then stretched out his hand to touch it, but was unexpectedly bounced open by it.
"Are you okay?" Looking at Jiang Botong, who was beaten by the immortal seal a meter away, Li Xuyang hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
"No, it's fine. Jiang Botong's face was a little ugly, he didn't expect that this immortal seal would reject him. Is it only the mourners who can approach it?
Li Xuyang put down the bronze box, and then looked at the bronze box carefully. The bronze box is bronze in color, and a dragon is carved on the surface of the four sides, each with its head facing upwards, and the direction of the dragon's mouth is towards one place, that is, the small hole on the lid of the bronze box. The hole wasn't big, it wasn't deep, and it could barely fit a glass ball.
"What is this little hole for? Could it be the key to open this bronze box? But what is the key?" Li Xuyang couldn't figure out.
"What exactly is in this box? is it Yin or the human form you said?" Jiang Botong sat five meters away from Li Xuyang, sat side by side with Wang Chengxin, looked at Li Xuyang opposite and asked.
"I don't know, we can't know what's in it until we open it. Li Xuyang shook his head and said.
"Alas, what the hell is this thing for? Why can't it be immortal, and it still makes people so eager to live?" Jiang Botong held his chin and sighed as he looked at the bronze box.
"This is the embodiment of desire, and it is precisely because some people's minds are not right, so they guess and imagine the existence of immortality. And this immortal seal is also considered unlucky, and some people have forcibly poured the name 'immortal'. And many people listened to the rumors, mistakenly thinking that there would really be some long-term survival, but in the end, they got nothing but their own lives. Li Xuyang spread his hands and said, everyone has desires. And eating is the primitive desire of man, as for wealth, status and money, etc., these are the desires that the person only understands the day after tomorrow.
"A man's desires are terrible, and he can do anything to achieve an end, even robbery, kidnapping, or murder. If the person has no desires, then he is either a fool or a madman. It is normal for a person to have desires, but if desires are beyond the scope of his ability, it is equivalent to indirectly sinning. Desire can be equated with dreams, and it can also be equated with crime. Li Xuyang said.
"Bang bang. There was a round of applause from outside the cave, and after the applause, a voice came again: "Well said, well said." ”
Hearing the figure behind him, Li Xuyang hurriedly stood up and looked over, only to find that a person was walking in from the entrance of the cave. And one of the more obvious ones is the two-meter-tall Liu Fei, who Li Xuyang can recognize at a glance. At this time, Liu Fei also had a smile on his face and came to Li Xuyang from the mouth of the cave.
