Chapter 200: The Master on the Night

In this world, there are always moon characters, such as the moon wheel country, such as the famous laurel in the moon wheel country, and the moon white in the color of laurel petals, but the moon word in this world has no specific meaning, just like the light and heavy turbidity vaguely points to a faint meaning.

Of course, the moon that the master asked at this time did not refer to the color, because he was asking about the moon, because of this question, Ning Que suddenly became nervous and at a loss, and got up, according to his previous style of acting, at this time, he would definitely try his best to pretend to be stupid, but at this time, if he pretended to be stupid again.

Because the Master has already made it clear that He is a man who is born to know.

Ning Que lowered his head, feeling the cold sweat flowing behind his back, gradually wetting his clothes, and after being silent for a long time, his voice trembled slightly and said: "The sun and the moon are reincarnated, light and darkness are opposite, I think that the moon may be a thing corresponding to the sun, the sun appears in the day, and the moon appears in the night." ”

The master said, "Be specific. ”

Ning Que looked at the cliff not far in front of him, the flowing clouds under the starlight, fell into a long silence again, and then said: "It may be ...... - a large stone ball suspended in the night dome, because it can reflect the sun's rays, so it looks very bright at night. ”

He couldn't explain why he was able to describe the moon, which didn't exist in this world.

The Master looked at him and smiled slightly, helping him to give an explanation that might not be reasonable, but at least made sense: "It seems that the picture you saw in your dream is very interesting. ”

Hearing the word dream, Ning Que raised his head, looked at the teacher standing on the edge of the cliff, looked at the clothes dancing lightly in the night wind, and vaguely seemed to capture something.

"It's an interesting idea. ”

The master turned to look at the night dome and exclaimed, "In the long night, there is always some light. ”

"Everything in the world is faintly corresponding, and it is good to have a moon corresponding to the day when the sun appears in the day, but if there is a moon, where will it be? If the moon reflects the rays of the sun, as you say, then does it not mean that at night, the sun is also in our world, but it is not visible?"

"And where is the sun in the night, as it did when it sets westward, and it descends further down the earth beneath our feet, and then rises again in the morning?"

"But the world we live in is a flat and open earth, and at the edge is an endless abyss, why did I wait for more than ten days and didn't see the sun set in the abyss, it just disappeared so suddenly?"

The master looked at the night dome with his hands in his hands, and said to himself, he was not talking to Ning Que, but talking to himself who had been thinking about the answer for countless years in the past.

After a while, he looked at Chang'an City in the wilderness in the distance, frowned and said, "There are many places that are still not passable, if this world is a ball, it seems to be passable." ”

People in the world, accustomed to the sun rising in the east and setting in the west, are accustomed to being shrouded in the brilliance of the sky day after day, just as they are accustomed to seeing the moss on the edge of the morning stall on the street, and never have any doubts about these things, let alone why these things exist.

But the Master is not a worldly person, he needs to think.

Probably not many people in the world can understand these muttering words, and even those who hear these words will think that the master is a somewhat crazy old man.

Ning Que understood a little, and his feelings were a little confused, and then he was endlessly admired.

The Master obviously did not have any astronomical knowledge, but according to Ning Que's description, he was about to touch the truth of the world, but that truth did not belong to this world, but to another world, but did not know that that world existed in the distant past, but in the future long after.

"I've been looking at this night sky for many years. ”

The Master pointed to the high and dark canopy above the cliff, pointed to the starry dots hanging in between, and said: "Whether it was many years ago or many years later, those stars have always stayed in their original positions and have not changed in any way, which shows that the relative position of the earth and the sky is fixed. ”

Ning Que looked at the night sky along the teacher's arm, not knowing what he wanted to express.

"But since the first year of the Apocalypse, these stars in the night sky have become dimmer day by day, and the difference is not visible to mortal eyes, but I know that they are dimming. ”

The master said: "There was a process of darkening, which was seen by the palace staff of Qin Tianjian, and only then did he have the sentence that the night covers the stars, and the country will be restless."

Ning Que knew that it was this sentence of Qin Tianjian that plunged the Tang Empire into a dispute, and indirectly led Li Yuyuan to marry the grassland a few years later, but when he heard the teacher's words today, he realized that this sentence was true, at least the first half of the sentence was true, and it turned out that the stars in the night sky were really darkening!

"Where will it be a matter of national restlessness.

The Master laughed.

Ning Que's mood was slightly lighter, but he didn't expect the master to continue: If the whole world has entered the eternal night, where will there be only one country without peace?"

Thinking of the sentences in the Ming scroll that were similar to prophecies, and thinking of some legends, Ning Que couldn't control the tension and fear in his heart, and asked, "Teacher, is there really an invasion of the underworld?"

The master said: "The book of heaven and the scroll heralded the arrival of the night, in the Xiling sect and the ancient scrolls of Buddhism, there are also related legends, because of these prophecies and legends, for countless years, there have been many wise people thinking about this, thousands of years ago, the light god seat went to the wasteland to preach, but created the Demon Sect, the temples of the Buddha sect withered and guarded the deep mountains and fixed meditation, probably all related to this, as for whether the legend is true, but no one knows. ”

Ning Que asked, "Teacher, you don't know either?"

"As I said, there is no omniscient person in the world, even if he is born to know, he can only know what he has seen in his dreams, and he still does not know what he has not seen. ”

Ning Que was silent.

The master looked at the night dome above his head, and after a moment of silence, he said: "In the past two years, your senior brother and I have traveled in the world, and in the middle of a trip to the Far North Cold Region, I found that the night there has become significantly longer, and the Atami has gradually condensed, so the desolate people are forced to tear up the thousand-year-old covenant and venture south. ”

Ning Que had heard the legend of the underworld, and most of the people in the market knew this legend, but the legend was a legend after all, and the Xiling Temple had always been indifferent to this kind of legend, so this legend became more and more ethereal.

However, the Master himself is a legendary figure, and when the legend of the underworld comes out of his mouth solemnly, and there seems to be vague evidence, then the legend is only true.

Ning Que felt cold, and the back of his soaked clothes seemed to be about to freeze.

"I didn't notice that even Chang'an City was colder than the year before last winter, of course, this may just be accidental, because so far, I still think that the invasion of the underworld is just a story to scare children, because no one has ever discovered the underworld, and neither have I. ”

The master looked at Ning Que's slightly pale face, and said comfortingly: "And even if the eternal night comes, according to the records in the Ming scroll and the ancient scroll of Buddhism, it cannot be a very short process, it must be extremely long, maybe a hundred years, maybe a thousand years, or even ten thousand years, what does it have to do with us people?"

Ning Que said gloomily: "The teacher is lying again, if you really don't believe in the story of the invasion of the underworld, how can you go everywhere to find the underworld, and how can it take ten thousand years." ”

"Then you tell me, where is the underworld?"

The master looked at Ning Que with a smile, and his smile seemed to hide an incomparably rich meaning, and asked, "Or, in those dreams of yours, where is the underworld in the world?"

Ning Que felt the teacher's gaze, remembered the bizarre statement of the Great Priest of Light about his life experience, and the cold sweat between his clothes disappeared in an instant.

Could it be that he is really the son of Hades?

Could it be that the teacher already knew that he was the son of Hades?

Ning Que couldn't accept this statement at all, because he didn't know what the Hades King was, and he knew very well where he came from, and if this statement was true, he was really the legendary son of the Hades, then the bloody storm that the Xiling Temple set off in Chang'an City back then seemed to have some kind of reason, and he hated this reason very much, even if it didn't make sense.

Looking at his anxious expression, the master smiled and said, "When the world thinks, Haotian is always laughing, if there is really an underworld, it will invade the world, that is also something that the Supreme Heavenly Dao needs to consider and is qualified to consider, what can you, a child, do and change? If you can't do anything, then what's the point of you being so painful and anxious?"

Ning Que did not agree with the teacher's attitude, thinking about the picture of the senior brother who was in the Tao and entering the Tao at night, thinking that it was okay to die at the end of the day, even if he couldn't change the final ending of the world's destruction, he might not even see this ending, so that he could grow old in the world with Sang Sang freely and happily, but as long as he was a person who could think, he always wanted to know what the end of time was and why this qiē happened.

But since he didn't want to discuss this matter anymore, especially with him, no matter how much he asked, the Master would not say a word more.

Ning Que lowered his head and was silent for a long time, then suddenly raised his head, looked at his master and asked seriously: "Then teacher, please tell me how my little uncle died back then."

Then he added: "This thing makes sense to me." ”

Knowing this matter is indeed very meaningful to Ning Que, because he is now walking on the same path that Uncle Xiao used to be, and he wants to change the ending of the story of concubines.
