54 The turtle rests on its body
With Xie Yixiang's words, in an instant, the sky and the earth were discolored, and the entire valley began to sway slightly, as if the sky was about to collapse, and the entire world in front of him would be destroyed and no longer exist. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
For Xie Yixiang, after the word "dreaming" came out of her mouth, her whole mind became completely clear, and everything was suddenly transparent.
At that time, on the altar of the lake god, he witnessed Yan Sidao turn into ashes under the divine power of Da Rui's great-grandfather "Dao Dharma Buddha Light", and he felt that his brain exploded and he fainted on the spot. Later, when I woke up from the room in the "Red Dragon Town of the Netherworld", until the current five or six days, it was actually a dream at all!
It is no wonder that the strange little boy can come and go without a trace, and he will be washed away by the current, and be discouraged by the dry tobacco stick of Yan Sidao, and it is like the sudden disappearance of the stone cave leading to the snake cave of the Han Tomb, and the sudden appearance of this big house after disappearing for a long time, and the fact that Yan Sidao swept off the entire thatched roof with a wave of the dry tobacco stick...... All this unreasonable thing, in the final analysis, turned out to be just because I was in a dream!
Seeing that Xie Yixiang finally came to his senses, he breathed a long sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Not bad! It's just that this epiphany of yours, I can only guide you, and I can't go beyond the bounds to wake you up, otherwise it will fall short. ”
The words fell, but I saw that the entire valley of the underworld in the swaying seemed to be gradually destroying bit by bit, turning into large patches of dust and scattering everywhere. Although it was the first time Xie Yixiang had experienced such a scene, she could guess a thing or two in her heart, knowing that this was her final realization that everything was just a dream, so the whole dream would naturally collapse and be destroyed, so that she would wake up from the dream.
However, it is not surprising that this speech and thought appeared in his dream, but how did the old man Qingzhu appear in his dream so realistically, and what is the origin of that strange little boy? If these two people are just fantasies imagined by himself in his dreams, the little boy clearly told himself the detailed process of the family stealing military salaries, as well as the "land of yellow springs" in the stone cave is so realistic, it is impossible for me to come up with it, is all this the ghost of the words?
At the moment, while she hadn't fully woken up from her dream, Xie Yixiang immediately asked Yan Sidao, "What tricks are you playing, and what does the dream you bring this time mean?"
Yan Sidao smiled unhurriedly: "Third Miss, do you naively think that this is your dream? Alas, could it be that you have seen clearly those sleeping people in this big house, but you still haven't been able to understand after all? You must know that you are not alone in dreaming, but everyone is dreaming at the same time, and you are still dreaming, and you can even say that you are in everyone's dream!"
Xie Yixiang couldn't understand Yan Sidao's words for a while, and after thinking about it for a long time, he finally came to his senses and asked, "You mean...... Are you saying that the six or seven hundred people in this cave, who are sleeping hand in hand like this, are actually dreaming, and they ......are dreaming? How is this possible!"
I saw Yan Sidao nodding solemnly, then took a deep breath of the dry smoke in his hand, and suddenly said to the old man Qingzhu beside him: "Teacher Qingzhu, the matter has come to this, and you don't need to continue to deceive this little girl." Both of you are martial arts practitioners, so it's better for you to explain it to her. ”
The old man Qingzhu has not spoken since Xie Yixiang's epiphany, and when he heard Yan Sidao's command, he couldn't help but sigh long, and said to himself: "Mr. is really a good means, in a few words, he actually woke up this ignorant girl...... If you have such ability, why do you bother to ask me to talk so much?"
Yan Sidao shook his head and smiled: "Teacher Qingzhu's words are wrong. This time, you are in a dream of your own volition, so you naturally know the truth and falsehood in it, but this Miss Xie San was cast by someone when she was unconscious, thus forcibly bringing her into the dream in front of her. In this way, since everyone is a guest in the dream realm, why bother to hide it from her alone, isn't it unfair to her?"
The old man of Qingzhu pondered for a moment, finally nodded, and said with some loss: "Mr. is not bad, alas...... Girl, now that I don't have to lie to you...... You, I, and all the sleeping people in this great house, are all in the same dream, as the gentleman said...... It's just that the rest of the people, Grandfather God didn't let you see in your dreams. ”
He sighed and continued: "Actually, I already know about this 'underworld' matter, and I know far more than you...... So at that time, the six great-grandmothers promised me 'immortality', and I promised her...... You must know that this so-called 'immortality' is actually similar to 'turtle breath' and the like, which can make people enter a state of suspended animation without eating or drinking, so as to prolong their lifespan. ”
Na Yan Sidao was worried that Xie Yixiang would be incomprehensible, so he immediately interjected and said: "You must know that in this life, although the spirit can last forever, the body has been consumed, and finally destroyed and abandoned, so that people lose their lives, that is, there is actually a 'quota' in the human body. Just like a mortal in a lifetime, how many steps can be walked, how many meals can be eaten, and even how many times can breathe, according to the different physiques of each person, there are 'quotas' that have been set for a long time. For example, suppose that your body can breathe 10,000,000 times in your lifetime, and when the 'quota' of 10,000,000 times is consumed, your body will no longer be able to breathe, and it will be destroyed and discarded, which is when you die. ”
The old man Qingzhu next to him immediately nodded and said, "What this gentleman said is very true, the so-called word 'quota' is really appropriate...... There is a saying that 'the king of a thousand years and the turtle of 80,000 years', and this is the truth. I think that the turtle rarely moves in its life, and can even go without eating or drinking for several years, so that the consumption of the body will naturally be reduced, so it can live a long life...... And if you look at me again, what can be solved with one part of the force on weekdays, it will never be solved with two points of strength, which is exactly the reason...... It's like the old zombie was poisoned by the corpse before his death, in order to prolong his life, he has been lying on the soft sedan chair, refusing to even walk, in the final analysis, it is not to reduce the consumption of the body......"
Yan Sidao saw that the old man of Qingzhu turned the topic away, and hurriedly said: "It's like the person who was frozen in ice, and he can be resurrected and reborn after a thousand years, because the ice makes his body stop being consumed, so as to gain immortality. And the current 'immortality' of this mysterious family is derived from this principle. Before, in the stone room behind the 'earth gate' in the depths of the altar, didn't you see the ancient zombie sealed by Emperor Qin with your own eyes? It is also your so-called 'living figurine', you must know that this family may have been inspired by that zombie, so it created such an 'immortal' magical power. You can understand it as a common method of 'turtle breath' on the rivers and lakes, which is a state of suspended animation that makes people enter a deep state, so as to reduce the consumption of the body's 'quota', and finally achieve the purpose of longevity. ”
The old man Qingzhu said again: "Yes, these sleeping people in the 'underworld' are said to live at least three or four times the lifespan of ordinary people, but they cannot be easily awakened. It is usually ten or even twenty years of slumber before it can be awakened and active in the world for a year or two...... Therefore, the housekeeper of the family is changed every other year, just like the six great-grandmothers, who were seriously injured and immediately had to fall back to sleep in order to save their lives...... And if the sleeping person is forcibly awakened before the period of sleep is expired, just like the three of Ren Qianqiu, Ren San's great-grandfather and Da Rui's great-grandfather, because they were suddenly awakened, their bodies were greatly damaged, and they only had less than a year to live in the future......"
Xie Yixiang listened to the words of these two people, and I said a lot of words, where can I accept so much content in an instant? It turns out that the so-called "immortality" of this mysterious family uses magical powers such as "turtle breath" to make people sleep for a long time, thereby extending their lifespan by three or four times.
But such a method of prolonging life is still far from the so-called "immortality", not to mention sleeping in this big house all the time, even if you can live for one or two hundred more years, what's the point?
However, this is not Xie Yixiang's main concern at the moment, she couldn't help but ask: "Now I know that I am dreaming, but why haven't I woken up from this dream?" She looked around again at the entire "Hades" valley that was gradually collapsing, and at this time for some reason it gradually calmed down, and it was obvious that the entire dream was still in its original state.
When Yan Sidao heard her question, he couldn't help but sigh, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Miss Xie San, you still don't understand." You must know that this dream in front of you is not your dream alone, but the dream of all those who are sleeping, and how can you wake up when you say that you can wake up? As for whether you can wake up from the dream, you have to ask the owner of this dream. ”
As he spoke, he suddenly raised his head, looked up to the sky and asked, "Heavenly Grandfather, do you say yes or no?"
