Chapter Eighty-Six: Departure
At this moment, the wind stopped, the morning insects stopped, the swallowing of tea and wine stopped, and even the breathing of everyone seemed to stop, and the tavern was instantly silent, falling into an abrupt and strange silence, but this silence lasted less than a moment, and the tavern was like an exploding pot.
"Is there really immortality?"
"Twilight, you're not going to lie to us, are you?"
......
Countless people in the tavern were suddenly endlessly noisy, some hesitated, some were shocked, some did not believe, some scoffed, in short, each had their own reactions.
Twilight Dongliu always had a calm face and didn't explain too much, but the more he was like this, the more hesitant and puzzled those people became, and the more interested they became.
"Brother Twilight, what are you talking about this immortal?"
Some people couldn't resist their curiosity to speak, and everyone immediately agreed, some were curious, and some were waiting to see his jokes.
Twilight shook her head.
"If you don't believe it, you don't believe it, if you don't have the heart of immortality, it's useless for me to say it, if you have it, you will look for it, why listen to me. ”
He looked at the crowd and spoke slowly.
Everyone was silent when they heard this, indeed, they had long been accustomed to people being born, old, sick and dead, and suddenly heard that there could be immortality in this world, and who could suddenly accept it.
"How to live forever?"
Suddenly, a crisp sound came from the crowd, everyone looked over, but saw a scholar, the body was thin, it seemed that if the wind did not pass but there was a sense of the wind of a scholar, the temperament was different from everyone present, like the difference between fish and dragon, like an extra star in the night, like an extra flower in the weeds.
In this world, there are also scholars, but in this world where martial arts are respected, the status of scholars is quite low, and those who are lucky enough to be the bookkeeper, or write books, make up a wild history or write a biography, and then go to the Qinglou Flower Boat to write a little song or something, and there are many people who are unlucky and starve to death, and some have to become mountain bandits and robbers halfway.
Twilight Dongliu looked at the scholar, and there was a touch of determination on his usual face.
"Break the stubbornness. ”
"What is stubbornness?"
The scholar frowned, not knowing whether it was true or false.
Twilight Dongliu's originally calm eyes changed a little, and he looked at the scholar with a little different color.
"Yourself. ”
The strange conversation, everyone's faces were puzzled and anxious, but the scholar looked thoughtful, he seemed to understand a little and didn't understand.
"Quiet, I'm going to leave here after this book, gossip, you better listen quietly. ”
Twilight said as he looked at the tumultuous tavern, his voice overshadowing all voices with a hint of strength before he picked up where he had started.
“...... But I saw that the Bodhi patriarch said to Sun Wukong, showing the secret circle of the true secret, cherish the cultivation of life without him, all come to always be spirited, carefully hide the leakage, the leakage, the body is hidden, you are struggling with my preaching, the mantra is more beneficial, the evil desire is cool, cool, bright and clean, good to Dantai to appreciate the bright moon, the moon is hidden jade rabbit day Tibetan black, there are turtles and snakes coiled, phase coiled, life is strong, but can plant golden lotus in the fire, accumulate clusters of five elements upside down, and make Buddha and immortal after the completion of the work...... That's all for today. ”
In an instant, I saw that everyone listening to the book stood up their ears and wanted to memorize this passage.
"Is this the method of immortality?"
Many people were shocked, only to feel that this sentence was full of mysterious truths.
And the panda was still smiling with a thief, holding up a hat and squeezing into the crowd.
......
At the head of the night sky, Twilight Dongliu was holding the panda in his arms and beside him was Lao Li Tou, at this moment Lao Li Tou was not as old as before, a little black was born in his white hair, his body was even straighter, and the vicissitudes of life on his face were gone, and he had already understood the way of cultivation and stepped into the acquired realm.
"You're getting out of here?"
The path that the two of them have long been accustomed to is a little long today for some reason, and Lao Li Tou's face is very silent today, even more silent than before.
"Hmm. ”
Twilight replied, he was not a good talker, and he couldn't say anything at the moment.
"I'll be back, you must not slack off in your cultivation, I need you. ”
In the end, when Twilight Dongliu said this, the old Li Tou's originally gloomy expression immediately lit up.
Silent two, wordless streets.
The days go by quickly, day by day.
“...... At this point, Sun Wukong was pressed under the Five Fingers Mountain, thirsty for copper juice, hungry for iron pills, exposed to the wind and rain. ”
Twilight looked around at everyone, he only said this, and he only intended to talk about this.
As soon as these words fell, everyone was stunned and then puzzled.
"Twilight, what about after that?"
It was still the rich young man who spoke eagerly first.
"Today, this is the last word, ladies and gentlemen, I am about to travel far away, and I will meet again in the future. ”
But Du Dongliu's answer stunned everyone, and then there was an uproar.
"Brother Twilight, are you done with this book?"
"yes, what happened after that? What happened to Monkey King? Didn't he come out?"
One after another asked urgently.
It's just that what ushered in was the silence of the twilight and the departure.
He pressed the panda, who wanted to go up to collect the money, and put it on his shoulder with a dejected expression, and then moved past the crowd and stood outside the tavern.
"It's going to be on the road again. ”
He seemed to be saying to everyone, but he seemed to be saying to himself, and his expression became a little confused at this moment.
He looked at the clouds in the sky, and the afterglow of the sun was fiery red, as if the sky was burning.
"What about immortality?"
Then Twilight Dongliu's eyes froze, and there seemed to be a ball of light in his eyes that people couldn't look at directly, and the sound was like a bronze bell, which only shook everyone in the room, but he was more like asking himself.
"Immortality is the door. ”
"What about immortality?"
"Immortality is the way. ”
He ignored the different expressions of the people behind him, his figure had already strode away, and he shouted loudly, his expression was calm and flat, and only when he spoke loudly did he change.
"What about immortality?"
"Feel free to get away. ”
The voice was far away, the back was far away, and there were only countless passers-by and strange-looking people left, but only one person frowned, and his body followed straight up, the scholar.
He's different, why? Just because from the first day he sat in this tavern and listened to a book he seemed to hear differently than anyone else.
The same words that fell on other people's ears were how powerful Sun Wukong was, how powerful the Buddha was, and how powerful the Jade Emperor was, but what fell on his ears seemed to be countless obscure words, deafening, but he couldn't understand it, as if countless people were whispering in his ear, close at hand, but vague and unclear.
From the first question, the feeling became stronger and stronger, and the words that could be heard became less and less, and the voices became more and more.
And now, he felt as if he was separated from the voice by a piece of paper, but Twilight didn't say anything.
He chased after him desperately, but no matter how much he shouted at Twilight, he was unconscious, and no matter how hard he ran, he could never catch up with Twilight's seemingly ordinary pace.
At last he had lost his shoes, his clothes were disheveled, and he was barefoot, and the rules of etiquette that he had taken so much in the past had been forgotten by him, as if he felt that he should have been like this, unrestrained, and natural, and it was strange that the street that had been paved with gravel did not feel the slightest stinging or stinging at the moment.
It wasn't until he saw Twilight in the distance that he was flowing up a low hill that he stopped.
The mountain in front of him is neither tall nor short, neither long nor narrow, very ordinary, but it has an inexplicable attraction to him.
Looking at the sheep's intestine path, he did not hesitate, and the man in his clothes had already stepped forward.
Suddenly, in his eyes, the mountain under his feet was no longer the original mountain, the heaven and the earth seemed to be more vast and clear, the trees were full of life, and everything was growing.
He didn't know if the heavens and the earth had become bigger or the mountains had become bigger, and the mountain, which had seemed to be not tall before, seemed to have no end at the moment.
"Finally, I am not alone. ”
Twilight stood on the top of the mountain and looked at the scholar standing at the foot of the mountain, and in his eyes, the mountain was still the mountain, and the scholar was already standing on the mountain.
"I spent years infecting and nurturing with my life's sincerity, and finally let you give birth to the meaning of a human mountain, and from today on, your name will be a human mountain. ”
He muttered to himself, and at the same time as these words fell, everything on the low hill was moving, as if it were joyful and joyful.
"And you, you, are my new beginning. ”
Twilight Dongliu looked at the person on the mountainside again, Lao Li Tou, he had been silent for a long time, his lips opened and closed slightly a few times, but no sound came out.
And the figure of the old Li Tou who was climbing the mountain was shocked, at this moment, he only felt that countless mystical exercises, supernatural powers, and martial arts were all in his ears, and the last sentence, I am leaving, you take care.
Old Li Tou was silent for a moment, he slowly raised his head, his eyes seemed to be looking at the top of the mountain through the endless mountain road at this moment, and he saw a young man, who was smiling at him.
Sunset.
I saw a young man walking, with a round panda sitting on his shoulder, and his back was pulled by the afterglow of the sky, and then disappeared at the end of the road.
