Chapter 54: Crazy Old Man
In Daimei Mountain, a lot of pavilions have been built, most of which are built near the water.
And in the depths of the trees, there are also groups of three or five, and the high-crowned people sit and talk to each other, and in the distance of these people, most of them have groups of slaves waiting.
The rich and the rich are happy, the celebrities and gentlemen talk about it, and any place in Daimei Mountain is actually the epitome of the current society.
Zhou Cheng walked in Daimei Mountain like an ordinary person, and he also saw several mysterious circles everywhere he passed, and he could hear these people talking from a distance.
The content of what these people talk about is indeed mysterious, and they are all topics that people cannot find accurate answers, from why do the sun, moon and stars in the sky change their positions?
However, Zhou Cheng found that the topics that everyone talked about were very profound, but they were a little ethereal, and none of them talked about the way to govern the country and benefit the people.
Zhou Cheng is not interested in these mysterious talks that are respected and sought after by the world, but the scenery of Daimei Mountain is indeed beautiful, and Zhou Cheng also feels relaxed and happy in the meantime.
The original curiosity about the Daimei Wenhui turned into an appreciation of the scenery of Daimei Mountain, Zhou Cheng walked casually, and gradually walked to some inaccessible places.
Zhou Cheng stood on top of a raised boulder, where there were no trees to block it, and as far as the eye could see, he could see the Yellow River meandering under his feet.
Just as Zhou Cheng stood on the boulder for less than a moment, in the other direction, an old man wearing coarse linen clothes and a wooden hairpin came towards the boulder with words in his mouth.
"This is it.... This is it..... The place hinted by the sages was actually Daimei Mountain....." The old man kept saying inexplicable words in his mouth, and anyone who saw it would think that he was a crazy old man.
Zhou Cheng also felt that someone appeared behind him, so he turned to look at the old man, the two looked at each other, and they seemed to be a little surprised, Zhou Cheng subconsciously wanted to leave here.
"Don't move.... Mask boy, stand still...."The crazy old man suddenly shouted, and his steps quickened and walked towards Zhou Cheng.
Zhou Cheng looked at the crazy old man with some surprise, and didn't know what the purpose of this old man's sudden appearance was, so he simply stood in place and waited for him to come over.
The crazy old man approached Zhou Cheng, circled around Zhou Cheng, took a few steps back, and looked at Zhou Cheng from all angles, as if he was comparing Zhou Cheng with the surrounding scenery.
"It shouldn't be.... Place is right..... Why is there one more person? All existence must have cause and effect..."The crazy old man muttered to himself with a puzzled face, and then suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhou Cheng with his hand bowed: "I don't know what to call Mr. What is the so-called thing about coming here?"
The mad old man asked two questions, and when he asked, he suddenly became polite and thoughtful, and his speech and demeanor were quite magnanimous, although he was dressed shabby, he was like a poor old man.
There are two completely different temperaments in a person, this is the first time Zhou Cheng has encountered it, although he is curious in his heart, he also replied to the old man: "In the next Zhou Cheng, just because of the charming scenery, I stopped for a moment." I wonder why Mr. just called him to stay down?"
"The old man deduced from the two classics of "Lianshan" and "Returning to Tibet" that this place is the center of the world where we are, that is, the piece under your feet. The crazy old man pointed to Zhou Cheng's feet and said with a happy face.
"Can this be calculated? Mr. must be a famous man in the world, right? Haven't you asked the old man for his name?" Zhou Cheng was a little shocked when he heard this, and he didn't know if this crazy old man was a strange person.
"What Baume & Mercier..... But a person who sells his reputation. The old man Liu Hui is just a seeker. The mad old man said with a look of disdain at first, and then stroked his beard proudly.
"What kind of path is Mr. seeker looking for?" Zhou Cheng put away his previous contempt and asked seriously, while his mind carefully swept over Liu Hui.
The term "seeker" is the first time Zhou Cheng has heard of it.
However, through Shen Nian Zhou Cheng, he found that this Liu Hui was not a high-ranking hermit, and even his physical condition was extremely poor, so it was not an exaggeration to describe Liu Hui as a dying person.
"The way of truth...."As soon as he talked about the way he was pursuing, Liu Hui felt that he had completely changed a person, and in Zhou Cheng's feelings, his temperament was not inferior to those celebrities at all.
"What is real?" Zhou Cheng was a little confused, but he vaguely felt in his heart that this Liu Hui was really not simple.
Liu Hui glanced at Zhou Cheng, and then said seriously: "The truth is sometimes not accepted, even if the old man says something, I'm afraid you won't believe it, right?" If I say that the sun, moon and stars above my head are all fake, do you think the old man is crazy?"
"Fake? Why is this?" Zhou Cheng frowned, and he didn't believe Liu Hui's words in his heart.
Zhou Cheng was able to borrow the power of the stars through the Xiao Zhou Tian Xingchen Sword Array, if the stars outside the sky were all fake, where did the power come from?
But Liu Hui's appearance made Zhou Cheng inexplicably believe in it, this feeling was very contradictory, so that Zhou Cheng himself didn't know how to judge.
"It's a long story, if you're interested, you might as well come to the old man's house. Five miles west of Luoyang City, there is an old locust tree in front of the door, which is the old man's residence. I still have business to do, and I don't have time to talk to you about it right now. Liu Hui actually didn't think that Zhou Cheng would believe his words, because he had said these things to many people, but the world regarded him as a madman.
"Since this is the case, then I won't bother Mr. Liu, and I will say goodbye. Zhou Cheng arched his hand and said, not continuing to stay.
He felt that this Liu Hui was a little abnormal, maybe he was really a madman.
Zhou Cheng soon left Daimei Mountain, Liu Hui seemed to have forgotten Zhou Cheng, he sat where Zhou Cheng was standing just now, closed his eyes and seemed to be experiencing something.
No one knew that there was such a person as Liu Hui in Daimei Mountain, as the sun set, people left Daimei Mountain one after another, only Liu Hui was still sitting on the high platform.
When night fell, the stars gradually appeared in the sky, and Liu Hui opened his eyes and raised his head to look at the starry sky.
Soon, in Liu Hui's eyes, the stars began to operate on their own, without the help of the armillary sphere, Liu Hui directly began to visualize the changes of the stars with his powerful deduction ability.
As Liu Hui's deduction continued, the expression on his face became more and more complicated.
It seems that in this place, some of the things he deduced are very different from his previous calculations, and this brand-new result has given Liu Hui a lot of new understanding.
"I see.... I see..... The armillary sphere is so useful.... It's a pity that the old man will be ..... It seems that only by taking the path of the sages, one day of enlightenment, the reincarnation of the primordial gods....." The stars in Liu Hui's eyes gradually stopped running, and he had already found the answer he wanted.
If someone else is here at this moment, they must think that he is crazy when they hear Liu Hui's words.
One day of enlightenment, the achievement of the original god, this is the same as the so-called Buddhism to become a Buddha, but I often hear people say, but no one can really do it.
After Zhou Cheng returned home, he temporarily forgot about the crazy old man Liu Hui, and he didn't plan to really go to Liu Hui's residence.
In the following days, Zhou Cheng played with Zhou Lan for a few days, and then planned to retreat again.
Although he was no longer able to make an inch of progress in his retreat, and even the glazed jade body could not go any further without the fusion of new relics, he still chose to retreat.
Because Zhou Cheng felt that the retreat time would pass very quickly, a time to settle in is a few months, maybe the next time he opened his eyes, Gai Liniang had already appeared outside the house, this is the truest expectation in Zhou Cheng's heart, and the ten-year covenant, there is less and less time left!
He was afraid of the arrival of the ten-year period, but he wanted the ten-year period to pass faster.
Zhou Cheng closed his eyes slightly, his mind was completely still, and he was about to settle down again.
But at this moment, the words of Liu Hui, the crazy old man on Daimei Mountain, suddenly kept appearing in Zhou Cheng's mind.
"The sun, moon and stars above your head are all fake.... The sun, moon and stars above your head are all fake...."
This sentence kept appearing, bothering Zhou Cheng like a spell.
"Whew...."After a long time, Zhou Cheng exhaled and suddenly opened his eyes, his forehead was already covered with beads of sweat.
This is the first time that Zhou Cheng has failed to enter the decision, and there are even some signs of going crazy.
"Five miles west of the city, under the old locust tree.... It seems that there is only one way to go!" Zhou Cheng slowly got up, silently thinking in his heart.
.......
In the Wuding Mountains of Miaojiang, in the ancient ruins.
Gai Liniang is still looking at the picture in the five-legged tripod.
She didn't know that six years had passed outside, and in the past six years, she had seen more and more pictures, and her cultivation had also recovered from exhaustion again and again, and in the process of absorbing the five-color divine light again and again, she was already close to the realm of the Taoist primordial gods.
Even the residual medicinal power of the 'Longevity Grass' in her body was being refined in a wonderful way.
Originally, such a rapid improvement in the Dao practice, coupled with the refining of the longevity grass, was enough to make Gai Liniang happy, but her heart was not happy at all, but was full of endless sorrow.....
The picture of the five-legged tripod becomes more and more tragic as it goes to the back, and Gai Liniang has already seen the picture when the heaven and earth are shattered, and the peerless fairy kills the turtle that has followed her for endless years, and turns into a pillar of heaven to support the sky with the feet of the turtle.
The helplessness and grief of killing her loved ones with her own hands made Gai Liniang, a bystander, grief in her heart.
And it seems that this is just the beginning, because Gai Liniang is still seeing many new pictures.
In the next picture, after killing the dear god turtle, the peerless fairy jumped into the five-legged tripod again, and the role of the five-legged tripod turned out to be to refine the body of this peerless fairy.
In the refining process, the body of the peerless fairy continued to melt into five-colored mud, her body melted and tumbled in the ding, and part of the mud vaporized, forming the remaining five-colored divine light in the space.
The back picture has not yet appeared, Gai Liniang endured her grief, exhausted again and again, and repeated those helpless and sad pictures, the feeling was like watching her mother die again and again.
And this kind of death is extremely tragic and cruel......
