Text Chapter 2 Night Talk
After dismantling fifty or sixty moves like this, Lan Jiuming found that the other party's aura was a little messy, which was the result of overusing true qi. He no longer uses the technique of borrowing strength to fight, but punches with his left hand, and resists the opponent's palm head-on, the real luck is all around his body, and the waist suddenly exerts force, and the huge air wave pushes over like a mountain and a sea, this punch is too violent, and it actually breaks up the opponent's palm wind, and the air seems to be broken by the impact of this moment, making a burst of cracking sounds! How can that person withstand this punch, from the palm to the shoulder was shocked numb, the whole person lost his roots under his feet, and took several steps back. The door of the person who was shocked was wide open, and his whole body was full of flaws, Lan Jiuming saw the opportunity, and pushed his right palm towards his heart, this move was so fast that he didn't have time to react. At the moment of this calcium carbide spark, a black shadow jumped between the two of them, and caught this palm with both hands in the posture of the lotus!
This person's figure footwork is very elegant, the moment Lan Jiuming and his palm power touched, he found that it was completely different from the tall man just now! He did not release his true qi to face Lan Jiuming, but gathered his true qi between his palms, which was a defensive posture. Lan Jiuming saw that this person's internal strength was not weak, but he had no intention of fighting, so he collected his true qi, jumped backwards, and stood firmly.
"Thank you, sir, for your mercy!" The voice was so beautiful, Lan Jiuming realized that it was a woman, no wonder her breath was soft.
As she spoke, the woman had already taken off the hat of her raincoat, revealing a delicate face, and her clear eyes looked at Lan Jiuming softly, and said, "Mr. Lan really deserves his reputation, and we have learned it tonight." ”
"It's really surprising to be able to meet a cultivator in this world!" Lan Jiu was really surprised, but after thinking about it, he was also a true qi protector, and he didn't think it was anything, he continued:
"Who are you, and how did you find me?"
"Actually, we came to you tonight because we had something to ask for, but we never thought that my brother was reckless, and I started with Mr., thanks to Mr.'s mercy, I really can't help it!"
Her tone was soft, which made people very comfortable to listen to, and Lan Jiuming was a little distracted by her and avoided her gaze.
"Who the hell are you?"
"I guess you have a lot of doubts in your heart now!" the woman said: "Mr. Lan, you don't know us, but we know you, I think you should also expect that we don't belong to this world." ”
When the woman spoke, her eyes kept staring at Lan Jiuming, so every trace of his emotional change was captured by the woman, and she saw the flicker in Lan Jiuming's eyes, "This cultivation of yours can't be learned in this world, and the development of science and technology has become the mainstream of society, but I believe that no matter how long you live here, you will never forget that land, where there are many memories of you." ”
Lan Jiuming's eyes suddenly sharpened, he looked at Wei Xiaoyue and asked, "You came from the arching place?"
Wei Xiaoyue didn't care about his gaze at all, nodded, and said, "Yes!"
"The Water Moon Cave was destroyed a few years ago, how did you get here?"
The woman said: "I came to you today, and it is also related to this matter! Mr. Lan, this matter is a long story, why don't we change to a quiet place, I will tell you the details of the matter, you will understand after you have heard it!"
Lan Jiu clearly had a lot of puzzles, this girl spoke in a big circle, but she never revealed her identity! And I've been back from there for five years, how did they find me? What do you want to do with me? What's the matter with them? With the cultivation of the two of them, they can't do anything to me!
"I can go with you, but don't play any tricks!"
"Mr. Lan is really a cheerful person, and we are not bad people, don't worry, I'll lead the way!"
The woman's spirit was shocked, and there was excitement in her tone, at this time the rain outside had stopped, and the three of them walked towards the city center, you didn't chase me when you came, Lan Jiuming relaxed a lot in his heart, but he didn't dare to take it too lightly, after all, these two people came from an unknown place, although Lan Jiuming was sure of winning in a fight, and it was always right to take precautions, but this girl gave him a very reliable feeling, and this unwarranted sense of trust made Lan Jiuming feel a little ridiculous, and sighed secretly!
Before I knew it, I was almost in the city, and the lights gradually increased. Lan Jiuming waved his hand, and the three of them stopped together, "There are too many cameras on the streets of the city, in order to save time and unnecessary trouble, let's go up." ”
Next to it is an old community, all five or six stories of small buildings, the three of them easily went to the roof, Lan Jiuming followed them in the sky above the city, and finally jumped over a high wall into an alley, the three of them adjusted their breathing, and walked out of the alley by night, the scattered pedestrians on the road lowered their heads and held umbrellas, and no one noticed them. The three of them soon came to a main street, followed the lights to the end of the street, and finally stopped at the door of a supermarket, Lan Jiuming looked at the door number of the supermarket: Hongchang grocery store!
This supermarket looks like nothing unusual, surrounded by high-end residential areas, and the usual business should be good, but they like to stay at home in such weather, there are only one or two people in the store who are picking things, a young girl is playing with her mobile phone expressionlessly in front of the cash register, Lan Jiuming saw the two of them enter the supermarket, and also walked in, the little girl immediately put down the mobile phone, and smiled apologetically:
"Sister Yue, you're back!"
"Well, Xiaoying, the weather is not very good today, you can go back early after the guests settle the bill, and hang the closing sign at the door before leaving." The woman's tone was still soft, not caring at all about the little girl's negligence, and there was still a warm feeling in her tone.
"Well, thank you, Sister Yue!" the little girl stood upright, watching Lan Jiuming follow behind, and didn't know what to say for a while.
"Mr. Lan, please!" The woman turned around and bypassed the cash register, Lan Jiuming followed, it turned out that there was a door inside, which should be the inner room of the supermarket, that is, the living area of the two people. The door was a fingerprint combination lock, the woman skillfully opened the door, and after coming in, Lan Jiuming found that he couldn't see it from the outside at all, and the space inside was so big! He vigilantly scanned the environment in the house, the spacious living room was spotless, the doors of several bedrooms on the side were closed, and there was an open kitchen, but the kitchenware seemed to have never been used, and there was no trace of life on it. The decoration style of the whole interior is very similar to that of a hotel, but the lighting in the room is just right, yellowish but not dim, giving people a warm feeling. Lan Jiuming didn't miss every detail in the room, for a master like him, it was not difficult to observe at this level, and it was a matter of blink of an eye to distinguish the possible dangers in the environment without moving. After confirming that there was nothing abnormal, Lan Jiuming relaxed a lot in his heart.
At this time, the two of them had already taken off their raincoats, and in the soft light, Lan Jiuming could see the faces of the two clearly, and the man who fought with him looked to be in his early seventeen or eighteen years old, and his face was still a little childish, but he was dignified and burly!
"Mr. Lan, please sit casually. ”
Lan Jiuming was a little stunned, and felt a little rude, in order to hide his embarrassment, he didn't wait for the two of them to speak, and started the conversation first:
"What do you call them?"
"My name is Wei Xiaoyue, you can call me Xiaoyue, this is my brother Wei Xiaofeng!"
The woman's tone paused slightly, sat opposite Lan Jiuming, and said, "Mr. Lan, we actually met over there before!"
"Have we met? I don't have any impression of you!"
"At that time, Xiaofeng and I were covered with mud, with a cloak and a ragged clothes, mixed in with the crowd in distress, our appearance was very different from now, and it was normal for Mr. Lan to have no impression. ”
The woman smiled, but sighed softly.
"Why are you here?"
"This matter has to start from the beginning, in fact, since the pre-Qin period, our ancestors have always wanted to find the essence of this world, explain the principle of the operation of this world, that is, the 'Tao' that we are looking for, and Western countries are also using their way to find the essence of all things in the world, after thousands of years of changes, the current world has accepted Western materialism, science and technology are developed on the basis of materialism, it can be said that this world is based on science as the premise to explore the essence of things. ”
"Yes, and now that life is so convenient, it is still thanks to science and technology, but I know what you want to express. Lan Jiuming said calmly: "Although science is advanced, there are also places that cannot be touched, and many things that cannot be explained by science are still a mystery. ”
Yes, science cannot explain everything in the world, but there are some unsolved mysteries that we think can be explained by the Tao. Thousands of years ago, the five sages of Taoism discovered a holy place between heaven and earth through the deduction of the changes of Zhou Tian, and led many people who fled the war to settle there. And the core of building that world is the metaphysics defined by you, but unfortunately, metaphysics has not been able to fully find the essence of everything in the world, and there are many things that cannot be explained and solved. ”
"There is no absolute materialism and there is no absolute idealism!" Lan Jiuming unconsciously remembered what the teacher of philosophy class said in college, but he was not interested in philosophy and did not understand the meaning of this sentence too much.
"Mr. Lan, whether it is science or metaphysics, has constructed their own worlds according to their own theories, and they are both developing rapidly, and the two worlds are not completely isolated, there is a channel between them. ”
