Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Ultimate Secret That Kicked Off (Part II)
Talking about the past with Yang Sheng is like a process of peeling off the wound for me, although the entanglement has become a long time ago, there are still bursts of pain in the recollection.
I didn't spend much time together, but feelings were never measured like this, after all, he was the first person I grew up with in the real sense of making friends, rather than a playmate who grew up together when I was young, and then became a brother.
All kinds of past events are like the old pictures of the movie, one by one, at the beginning, practicing boxing, the promise of parting, the joy of goodbye, the terrifying deserted village, the tenacious Jingyi sister-in-law Later, my story was inevitably mixed with various personal feelings, which could not be controlled.
I don't know how long I was talking, half an hour or forty minutes. Anyway, after I finished speaking, the whole room became quiet
"I didn't expect you to have such a past with that Yang Sheng, and he even wrote you such a letter." Brother Chengxin commented on the side.
I don't know why, Yang Sheng is the person I am most reluctant to mention, a past, even if I am close to him like Brother Chengxin, I don't know all the things about me and him, so he can't help but sigh.
"This person" Brother Chengqing muttered, but he didn't know what to say.
"Judging from everything I know, Yang Sheng should be too paranoid about everything left by his teacher, I personally feel that this person is very emotionless, but I didn't expect him to have some humanity in you." Lu Shan also knew some things about Yang Sheng, after all, he told me about Yang Sheng's secret past, but he had not been exposed to Yang Sheng's human side.
Johnny dragged his chin with his fingers, and after everyone had finished expressing his feelings, he looked at me and said, "It's just a more personal question, and I want you to answer it." ”
"Huh?" I was a little depressed, so I lit a cigarette, and the smoke rose, but the depression did not dissipate.
"Then has Yang Sheng ever seen the woman named Jingyi again in the future? And his son, who is almost 10 years old now, has he ever been to see it? Johnny asked earnestly, and indeed the question didn't matter.
"He hasn't been to see Jingyi's sister-in-law, at least not as far as I know, and as for his son, not once." I shook my head and said, just feeling how can a person be so ruthless?
"This mentality is already into the devil, it seems to be an ideal to let go completely, but in fact it is a kind of demonic fear, I have not picked it up, and I resolutely abandoned it completely, the paranoid pursuit is not the real ideal mentality at all, although it is so, but Chengyi, I'm sorry that you have such a destined enemy, it is terrible, once anything becomes a kind of mentality of 'Tao', even if it is a dead road, it is also terrible, and it will burst out with incredible power." Johnny commented.
"Why should I fight him as a destined enemy?" Although I had this speculation before, I didn't expect Yang Sheng to be called a 'rival', after all, when we first met, we were friends who genuinely appreciated each other.
The term "enemy of fate", I intuitively use it on Zhang Han, Yan Chenning and the like, I am afraid it is more appropriate.
"It's the old enemy of fate, there's no doubt about it. I can finally tell this story," Johnny tapped his fingers on the armrest of the couch as he spoke.
Johnny at that time was not Johnny, he was Sharma, a noble Brahmin of India, a true Hindu, and a son of God.
"I should be the most fanatical religious at that time, I didn't think that one day I would no longer believe in Hinduism, and become a Taoist, of course, although I changed my faith, I don't mean that the religion I once believed in was bad, but everything about Taoism made me feel more appropriate, and there are two key people in me who have changed, one is naturally your ancestor Lao Li, and the other is Alina, she is the love of my life."
Speaking of this, Johnny paused, closed his eyes, and seemed to be reminiscing about the past, I thought he would have a long speech, but I didn't want him to really just pass it off: "About all kinds of past events, I don't have any interest in talking about it now, I just feel that India is my hometown, and because of Li's relationship, Huaxia is like my second hometown, so my Mandarin pronunciation is even more standard than you (he refers to me, always with Sichuan-flavored Mandarin), as for Alina, she made me obsessively fall in love with steak, Hahaha Fortunately, at that time, I was no longer a Hindu, but a Taoist. I found that a person's faith is actually related to a person's feelings and experiences, faith is a kind of gentle comfort, from the power of the spirit, always have to be appropriate to the person, in order to make him believe in something from the soul. Just like you in China, on the surface it seems that there is almost no faith, in fact, everything about Taoism has been buried deep in their hearts, an opportunity, maybe you can awaken this ancient belief, after all, this is thousands of years of culture planted in your hearts, a most suitable seed of faith for you. ”
Johnny took a sip of coffee after speaking, and said lightly: "I always think of the past, and I can't help but ramble." Don't mind? He winked mischievously at me, and he didn't look like the grumpy old man anymore.
I shook my head, indicating that I didn't mind, in fact, where would I mind, his words simply won my heart.
"The reason why you and Yang Sheng will be the speed of fate is because it is related to a past between me and your ancestor, knowing that your ancestor is Li's real mission, to be exact, is it the real mission?" Johnny asked us.
We had a vague guess about it, but we weren't sure about it, so we waited for Johnny's next step.
"In my opinion, he is like a scavenger, a mysterious scavenger from Kunlun, who is obsessed with cleaning up the 'garbage' left here by Kunlun, understand? For example, do you understand the purple plants, purple bugs, etc., that you have seen? Actually, Li told me an interesting thing, he said that these damn things are not necessarily purple in Kunlun, but when they get here, the unified ones slowly turn purple! There's a reason for that, because what does purple mean? It represents nobility! These things from Kunlun think that they are noble to everything in this world. That's what Lee told me, but I don't know if there's any basis. Johnny said this with a smile on his lips, as if he was really telling a very interesting story.
"We've vaguely guessed about this, but what's the point?" I actually don't understand why the master is obsessed with this, and I don't understand where the real point of this matter is?
"The point? The point is in harm, the entrenched danger to the human race! To use an analogy, even if it's a strong baby, you can't let him learn to run, even if it's a healthy adult, you can't let him swallow several real wild ginseng at once, one step at a time is the truth, especially for a group! The results of any uprooting and promoting general behavior are devastating. What's more, everything that comes from there has no sense of identity and the slightest emotion for this place, just like making you small and placing you in the middle of a group of ants, can you have a sense of identity and feelings? Using them, they will also be used by them, do you think this is a devastating disaster? I'll use an analogy, I mean - the soul of Kunlun! Johnny said seriously.
I couldn't help but shudder, the soul of Kunlun, even a trace of remnant soul is terrifying, I have seen it! created a city lord and created a Yu Cuizi, Yu Cuizi is because the feelings in his heart have become demons, leaving irreversible weaknesses, and the city lord is because of the remnant soul left by the ancestor, otherwise
"It seems that you understand, but that Kunlun soul is just a small guy, there are big guys! Tell you that there is one under the Ganges, and it was me and Li who personally suppressed it, do you believe it? Johnny said that it seemed to be very relaxed and unburdened, but I just felt a kind of tragedy from his words.
He didn't elaborate, I didn't ask, I knew about the existence under the Ganges, he would definitely say it in detail later.
"A lot of things in this world are contradictory." Sure enough, Johnny changed the subject, obviously he had more important things to tell me: "For example, the scourge from Kunlun can only be cleaned up by those who accept the Kunlun inheritance, but those who accept the Kunlun inheritance are Kunlun people in a sense, and they must obey the highest law of Kunlun, that is, the existence of Kunlun must not harm each other in this world, even if it is a grass or a tree, it can't!" Your master can't do anything himself, he always racks his brains and uses various methods to clear it, and if he is powerful, he will find a way to suppress it. But the suppression is not a long-term solution, my past with your ancestor is nothing more than back then, the suppression of the existence under the Ganges River is me, your ancestor guided! He has been waiting, and then he disappeared, so I have been waiting, your master once said that he would use a method to completely solve these guys in the end, but with the help of other people's hands, a disciple whose life is connected to him, he said that he can't wait for that day, this kind of waiting will become me, this secret, in fact, only Jennifer's few top cultivators know. Johnny said this in one breath, then looked at me inquiringly.
I know, the meaning of his eyes is to ask me if I understand?
At this time, I finally understood a lot of things and figured out the ins and outs of a lot of things, so I couldn't help but say: "So Yang Sheng and I are old enemies, he insists on using everything from Kunlun to make human beings take shortcuts, and my fate is destined to carry the will of my ancestor and clear everything from there, and the four major forces will confront me, and it is also because of the battle of the Lake of Ten Thousand Ghosts, I exposed this bearing, and their hopes are all placed on the things of Kunlun" Speaking of this, I paused, and then said:" After all, you said that it was the top cultivators who knew, and I think there must be someone in the know among them. ”
"That's what it means, you know? You and Yang Sheng are the real enemies of fate! And the wheel of your fate starts from the Lake of Ten Thousand Ghosts, you will face all kinds of terrible, and finally you have to go to Penglai, around Penglai, your ancestor has done an earth-shattering thing, using the power of Penglai itself to suppress one of the most powerful guys! What does that guy say? It's a poor guy, its own form has not been recognized by Kunlun, it is not suitable for Kunlun's acceptable range, in fact, all Kunlun souls are, but where is its power, if it is not destroyed, it is a disaster in the world, your ancestor said, it is hard to imagine that it is attached to a great person, what kind of changes will it bring to the world, but there is a group of so selfish people, for their own selfish interests, desperately want to release the Kunlun soul is really bad. Johnny said this and sighed: "I'm too closed, I didn't expect such a person to have appeared and gained so much momentum, this person is Yang Sheng, if he doesn't appear, you won't carry such a mission"
"However, I said that I would wake up my ancestor, and I really have no way to guess the specific meaning of this matter." I finally asked the question I'd been wanting to ask.
"Don't you understand? In every place of suppression, there is the remnant soul of your ancestor, and the last thing he did was to decompose his soul and stick to it in every place of suppression, waiting for you to wake up! Johnny said earnestly, a flash of sadness in his eyes.
"You" I stood up suddenly, and couldn't help but say, "Do you mean that my master is actually no longer there?" ”
"No, I'm not sure! He is a miraculous person, and I, like your master, believe that he has returned to Kunlun even more, even though it is a beautiful hope. Johnny said more seriously.
And I sat on the sofa in a gloomy mood, and this time I found that I really wanted to cry out loud in my heart, and the ancestor was gone? Although Johnny said that he believed that his ancestor had returned to Kunlun, how could someone who had broken down his soul into remnant souls still exist?
