As I waded across the river, I vaguely heard someone behind me calling me to stay.
But I looked back and saw nothing.
I'm not sure if it's the dead souls from the Tomb Mountain who are calling me. Anyway, the fog is hazy on the other side of the river. After crossing the river, a ray of golden sunlight shines down, illuminating the surrounding area extremely brightly.
Separated by a river, it's like two worlds.
The sun is shining brightly on one side, and the mist is light on the other.
One side is as warm as spring, the other side is as cold as winter!
I identified the direction, and then walked quickly forward. This walk took more than three hours, and I climbed over two mountains before I saw a country road.
With the country roads now available, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
If there is a road, it means there are people.
The path was made of adobe, and I didn't meet anyone until noon.
The bowl of noodles I had eaten so early in the morning had already been consumed, and my stomach growled again.
I was thinking about whether to go to the woods to find something to eat when I suddenly heard the sound of a car engine coming from not far away.
I immediately picked up my energy and hurriedly walked a few steps forward. After turning a corner, a smooth country road appeared in front of me.
Looking into the distance, there seemed to be red brick buildings in the lush forest.
I was immediately overjoyed. Since I was caught by wanted criminals, I have encountered either extremely vicious criminals or lonely ghosts.
Suddenly seeing the peaceful red bricks and green tiles, I felt like I was in another world.
I walked a few steps quickly, thinking about going to the village to find a restaurant to have a big meal, and then call the boss to borrow money.
I had just jumped off the path when I suddenly heard someone calling me: "Lao He!"
I turned around suddenly and almost shed tears.
I said: "Boss!"
Zhang Sanfen was leaning on the body of the Mercedes and looking at me with his head tilted.
His expression was very complicated, then he waved his hand to me and said, "Get in the car."
I walked over quickly and asked, regardless of how dirty I was, "Boss, how did you know I was here?"
You have to say that I don’t have a specific position on my body, and I didn’t contact him in advance. How could I know for sure that I would appear here?
The accuracy is no more than thirty meters.
This is simply unbelievable.
Zhang Sanfen said: "I asked someone to do a fortune telling, so I came here in advance to wait."
I was stunned, who was this fortune teller, so accurate?
But the boss didn’t seem to want to say more to me and said, “Get in the car, there’s food on the car.”
I opened the door and sat in the passenger seat, and sure enough I found a bag full of food, including milk, bread, chicken legs, and a few steaming buns.
I was very hungry for a long time, so I tore open the package and started to eat it happily.
Zhang Sanfen didn't rush to drive, but waited for me to finish eating before starting the car and driving slowly forward.
I was full of doubts, about the wanted criminal White Curse, about the mass graves, and about the mysterious old man.
Even about who took away the commemorative body.
But just when I wanted to ask, I felt that there were so many things and I didn’t know how to bring it up.
Zhang Sanfen saw that I was hesitant to speak and said, "Just ask me whatever you want."
I took a deep breath and said, "Where is this place?"
Zhang Sanfen was stunned for a moment, then smiled and pointed forward.
I happened to see a road sign that said "Thirty kilometers to Niangziguan Scenic Area."
It turns out that this is the western Shanxi region.
It is separated from the provincial capital by the Taihang Mountains.
The Luanfen Mountain is probably part of the Taihang Mountains.
I asked again: "Boss, I don't know what to ask, but I feel like I don't know anything."
Zhang Sanfen said: "The wanted criminal is here for me. The reason why I arrested you is to make more preparations. If I can't be caught, I will use you to force me out."
I nodded to express my understanding.
Zhang Sanfen added: "The leader is called Bai Ju, and he is an S-class wanted criminal. He is ruthless, but also resourceful. The Secret Bureau has been chasing him for more than ten years, and he has lost at least one hundred and eighty men.
.”
After a pause, Zhang Sanfen added: "He is the mastermind behind the memorial corpse."
"He was also the one who attacked the Secret Bureau."
I nodded, actually I had guessed all this.
Feng Xi from the Secret Bureau was attacked by wanted criminals, and in a blink of an eye, my side was also attacked.
Not even the boss ran away, but the boss was so powerful that he beat the opponent to pieces.
Zhang Sanfen added: "They want to arrest me because they want me to do something, which seems to be related to the resurrection of the dead."
"Well, the reason why the memorial is favored by this group of people is actually related to the resurrection."
I felt refreshed, and that was the point.
Since ancient times, people have been afraid of death.
Because Qin Shihuang was afraid of death, he sent Xu Fu to lead three thousand boys and girls to find the so-called fairy mountains overseas.
Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty wanted to live forever, so he took elixirs all year round in his later years, but ended up eating himself alive.
Not to mention the other Emperors Wu and Jiajing of the Han Dynasty.
It's just that as emperors, they wanted to pursue immortality and that's why it was recorded.
There are countless people among the people who want to live forever.
Even when I was a child, I thought that it would be great if people could not die.
But the little people are just thinking about it, and it will be the same in the end.
People who are capable, powerful, and have more money than they can spend all don't think so.
I don't lack money or status, so it doesn't make much sense to sit idle all day.
What to do then? Of course, it’s to study how to live forever.
In fact, from my point of view, living for such a long time does not mean much. As long as life is wonderful, the length does not matter.
What's more, how can people not die?
How capable were Emperor Qin, Emperor Wu of Han, Emperor Tang and Song Zu? Aren’t they still buried in the ground?
Even if technology is relatively advanced now, there is nothing that has existed forever.
Even the sun has a lifespan, let alone humans.
I said: "Boss, do you also want to live forever?"
Zhang Sanfen's eyes widened and he said: "Shit!"
"If anyone tells you in the future that a person can live forever, it's best to beat him to death with a stick. It's just that such a person has no ability. If he had the ability, he would definitely make a fuss and not care about anything for the sake of immortality."
"They wanted to arrest me, but they actually wanted to ask me some questions about souls, well, ghosts."
"Maybe they want some of my collection. I was thinking, either there is an old guy who has died and doesn't want to die. Or there is someone who has died and wants to come back to life."
"Bai Ju specializes in this! He has two research institutes under his command, one in North America and one in Asia Minor."
"The one in North America is fine. It follows a more formal research route. But the one in Asia Minor is a bit dirty. I don't know how many zombies and monsters have been captured."
"One of the research subjects is the relationship between the human body and the soul, to see if a person's soul can live in another body for a long time. This is the so-called ghost possession."
I understood immediately.
Possession by ghosts is also a way to achieve immortality.
As long as your body is no longer good, you can just change your body. After all, your soul is still yourself, and your body is just a stinky skin. This chapter has been completed!
