You can't ride a wolf when going to an unknown location. You have to walk towards the nearest light source. It's still more than an hour away by visual inspection. Meteor had nothing to do on the way, chatting with Ping An.
"Brother Ping An, are you a practitioner of metaphysics?"
Ping An responded: "Yeah, but I still want to advise you to believe in science. Science is the most powerful way of this era."
"Taofa?"
"Tao is the law, the route of the airplane, the rails of the train, and the law by which everything operates. The most powerful Tao in today's society is science - constantly pursuing the truth and getting closer and closer to the truth. Isn't it just scientific falsification?
process, then as a real person, I am the person who should be the most scientific and rational person."
"Oh, so that's what it means. Brother Ping An, you are really literate. You literate people talk about things in a roundabout way. It seems that one word can be interpreted into many, many meanings."
"I'm not smart, and I don't have much education, so I appear verbose." Luo Ping'an's tone became solemn and serious: "All the smart geniuses in the world like concise and powerful formats."
"Oh? Is there such a thing?"
"Simple things are solid, the strongest structure is a triangle, the shortest distance is a straight line, the wheel is round, the house is square, happiness is eating, drinking, sleeping, working hard and getting something - but when it gets complicated,
Not necessarily good."
"Um"
"Little brother, you are the one with great wisdom. You don't need to read many books to understand many truths and the difference between good and evil. You are a genius."
Ping An walked forward cautiously and said.
"When people have complicated pursuits, they begin to worry. For example, if you are full, you will be happy. But later, you not only have to be full, but you also have to eat in a variety of ways. You have to eat sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty. You can eat exquisitely and deliciously, and you can eat it all over the world.
The food was delicious, so one day I couldn’t eat it anymore, and I started to feel distressed. I used to be able to be happy after eating a full meal, but now it has become a luxury.”
"When a person goes to read a book, he is happy at first, but as time goes by, he finds other books more and more boring, and can no longer compare to a certain story he has read before - that person mistakenly thinks it is
As my cultural level has increased, my aesthetics have become more powerful, and my desires have become more complex, bizarre and outrageous. I think this is not [gain], but [loss]."
"Children in today's industrialized era are not willing to get married and have children, but people in primitive societies had a very strong desire to have children. At that time, people's lives were very simple and barbaric. The cost of raising a child was very low.
The mortality rate is also very high, but there are still people who do it - in this era, it is a strange phenomenon."
"Are we living worse than beasts that eat their hair and drink their blood? Is the risk of giving birth to a child higher than in the Stone Age? Isn't that necessary?"
"So simplicity is genius. Being able to make complex things simple is the genius among geniuses. And I have to spend so many words to explain these things. I am just a mediocre person who engages in metaphysics, not even science - because
Science helps people solve problems, while metaphysics creates problems for people.”
"After listening to my words, you will probably have more questions in your mind, but I can't give you the answer. This is the biggest tragedy for those of us who engage in metaphysics - like on the Internet now, many self-media do the same thing. Look
It sounds like knowledge sharing, but in fact it's all about making money from metaphysics. I'm just trying to make mysteries, and I can do it."
Meteor laughed loudly and didn't take the Taoist priest's words to heart - he just thought Brother Ping'an was interesting, so he asked again.
"Brother Ping An! Is there really reincarnation in the world?"
Luo Ping'an immediately said: "There must be some."
Meteor: "How can you be sure there is?"
Luo Ping'an: "History is spinning in circles, like reincarnations, and the stars change over and over again. The earth revolves around the sun, the sun revolves around bigger stars, and the stars all revolve in the galaxy. I don't think all living things can escape.
This level."
Bu Liuxing: "Oh"
Luo Ping'an: "More than fifty tons of cosmic dust flies to the earth every year. In addition, we are all composed of matter on the earth, and matter is immortal."
Saying this——
——Luo Pingan took a deep breath, like adjusting his breath after a long journey.
"What will happen to people after they die? Mud and water, mountains and rivers will go into the bodies of animals and go around in circles. After many, many years, they will return to people, right? No matter how many years later,
, I think we must have turned into humans at that time, but things after reincarnation are not something we can deal with now."
"There are trillions of living beings in the world, all rolling around in the material world. The geology and life forms of the earth are constantly changing, but they never change from the same origin - I think this is reincarnation."
"Not talking about technology and hard work, little brother, regarding the matter of reincarnation, there is a point of view that I, Luo Pingan, am not willing to accept."
Meteor: "Oh? Brother Ping An, what did you say?"
"Do good deeds in this life, and you will be rewarded in the next life." Luo Ping'an said slowly: "I don't agree with this matter, what do you think-"
"——The good deeds done in this life will be rewarded in the next life. How complicated and hateful the bad people must be to say such deceptive things. I like the rewards in this life, and I wish I could be rewarded immediately after doing good deeds.
.Once this matter becomes complicated, there will be no good results, right?"
Meteor: "Yes! Yes!"
"How many people don't do good deeds because they can't see any good rewards in this life?" Luo Ping'an said: "If everything you do has real rewards, there won't be such complicated human hearts and feelings, and there won't be so many ghosts and monsters."
Meteor remembered the corpse he had seen on the ledge at the tunnel entrance——
——The corpse was not rotten or decayed, nor did it emit a stink after more than fifty years. It was really strange, so he asked curiously.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Brother Ping An, you said that corpse has evil aura, why?"
"It's not that the corpse has a demonic aura." Taoist priest Ping An explained unhurriedly: "Not to mention zombies and other things in myths and legends, this is told to scare children and is a topic for adults to talk about after dinner.
——”
"——And the corpse we saw is dead and will never be reincarnated. It has not been eaten by animals for more than fifty years. It has not been crushed by the power of nature. It will never change into anything else, and it will not be able to give birth to any extra creation. To
I know that some people are willing to eat the mummies of Egyptian pharaohs and use them as health medicines. If this corpse can be kept for so long, there must be very powerful magic."
"I want it to be like this after I die. It is such a cruel death penalty. The person who executed this corpse must have turned into a monster."
"I, a living person, have been cast into an immortal statue - I am no longer me, but a monument. People will make monuments for people who deserve to be remembered, no matter whether that person is good or bad.
Great or despicable, everyone hopes this monument will become a history book."
"But using human flesh to make a monument is probably not a good thing. It's like using his bones to make a tomb. You want to leave the ugly appearance before death in the world forever. Even Qin Hui, the eternal sinner, doesn't have this treatment - he can't do it.
People who do this kind of thing have lost their humanity and become monsters."
Meteor nodded and then asked.
"Brother Ping An, I am studying in the secret library, and I also know that there is a group of people in the underground world. They are immortal. Like you, they have also formed an alliance of immortals. There are very few records about these people. I am very
Curious what’s going on.”
"Eternal life? Where is eternal life, but eternal death." Luo Ping'an immediately said: "Let me ask you, little brother, if you were immortal, do you think you would be happy or unfortunate?"
Meteor immediately said: "Of course I am happy! I have thought about it too! If I never die, I can read many, many books!"
Ping An immediately replied: "There are endless books in the world, and no one can finish them. Not to mention the information explosion in the Internet age, even if you were thrown into the Qing Dynasty, you would not be able to finish reading these books. The speed of reading is
It’s limited, but people are creating knowledge faster and faster.”
Meteor continued: "Then I can play in the world!"
Ping An then answered: "Playing games in the human world is finished very quickly. Games cannot escape from wine, sex, wealth and wealth. It seems that there is no birth, old age, illness or death. When it can no longer be played, it will die."
Meteor: "I can have many, many children!"
Ping An: "One or two children can still be called treasures. In ancient times, the emperor who gave birth to more than a dozen children was the cruelest to his children. Do you think he cares about his descendants? If you have more children, let the people on the entire earth,
They will all become your descendants, and they will go to war and kill each other."
Meteor: "Then I. I'll come out and stop them!"
Ping An: "But why should they listen to you?"
Meteor: "I"
"So." Ping An sneered: "There is no eternal life. It is just a puppet of power. It is eternal death."
Ping An changed his tone and became calmer.
"It is said that the end of the road to cultivation is immortality, that it is to change one's life against the will of heaven, and to compete with the heavens for life. But once the human body is locked up, I feel like the devil of nothingness is chasing me all the time - I have to pursue the meaning of life in order to not stop myself.
As for becoming a demon. After all, I am already a real person, and I may no longer be able to become gold, stone, grass, trees, birds, animals, mountains, rivers, seas, sun, moon and stars. I have to cultivate humanity, do human things, and live life."
Meteor was thoughtful and stopped asking questions. He only remembered what Teacher Victor said back then - life is by no means a journey from hot-blooded to cold-blooded.
Like Mr. Victor, Luo Pingan has similar but different answers to immortality.
Both of these immortal men have their own paths to stay young.
Bu Liexing didn't speak, but Luo Ping'an suddenly spoke.
"I'm sorry, people tend to be verbose when they get older. I shouldn't talk to you about these things, little brother - young people always have to be full of energy. If it makes you uncomfortable, it's the fault of the poor man."
Bu Liuxing: "Haha! Brother Ping An, you don't understand me! I have to walk my own path! I won't listen to your monstrous lies!"
"Of course that's great! That's great!" Luo Ping'an said immediately: "The Qian Gua will lead to the leaderless dragons and everyone will become a dragon. That's great. You can think so."
Follow the railway and exit the Howling Ridge area.
There are more and more billboards along the way, and the landscape of the modern city is also there.
However, it is worth noting that Meteor discovered a strange phenomenon——
"——Brother Ping An! Why. Why are the female celebrities on these billboards the same person?"
All the way out from the Howling Ridge Tunnel, approaching the wilderness surrounding Shiqiu County Town, the billboards on the road all have the same image and the same face.
It's just that the products endorsed by this actress are all kinds of different, ranging from household appliances to agricultural products and agricultural tools, IT digital food and clothing.
Luo Ping'an took a closer look and shone the flashlight. On the lamp stand more than six meters high, the face of the female star in the billboard was illuminated eerily and terrifyingly, and her smile became weird and bizarre.
Meteor was startled. He didn't feel anything at first glance. Under such underworld light, he felt that the actress's smile was so permeable, but there was a familiar feeling. He thought carefully - Ming Ge's face
There is also this kind of smile.
It was a deliberate performance, like offensive mimicry, a smiling face for working overtime to cope with the boss and colleagues.
Luo Ping'an said: "Oh! This sister's name is Matsushima Seiko! I know it!"
"Do you know him?" Bu Liuxing was stunned. He didn't expect that Taoist Ping An was still a fan boy who was obsessed with Japanese and Korean girls.
Luo Ping'an: "Not only do we know each other, but we also have a fate. In 1982, I went to attend her concert."
Bu Liuxing: "Ah?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Luo Ping'an: "She debuted in 1980 and attracted much attention with her single "The Season of Bare Feet". She is a rising star. Since then,
It became popular all the way, and by 2006 it was the best-selling song, with a sales record of 24 singles that no one can break."
Meteor: "Huh?"
Luo Ping'an said without blushing or heart beating.
"I'm an old fan of hers. As for why I like it, it's also "Barefoot Season". As a person who has traveled thousands of miles, I have to travel to many places in the world with my feet, so I was attracted by the title - and then
It’s out of control.”
Meteor: "Huh?"
"Ah what?" Luo Ping'an tilted his head and looked puzzled: "Do you think real people are indifferent to the world? Besides, I have my legs off the ground. I am not touched by the world, not stained by the world of mortals, and I am so far away from people.
If you are far away, how can you be a real person? How can you seek the truth?"
"That's right." Liu Xing pondered whether the Taoist priest's words were rude or not: "Then now you."
Luo Pingan interrupted: "I follow Stefanie Sun. She has no new album in the past two years, but I still like her very much, and she has never had a house collapse!"
"Good guy" Meteor didn't know what to say.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
After fifteen minutes, the two men and the wolf finally arrived in front of a group of buildings.
This is where the light source is, and it is the only bright place for several kilometers.
But what Meteor didn't expect was that this was not a town in the upper world, but a territory in the underworld.
The entrance of the building complex is gorgeously decorated, with a noble and foreign style of Little Europe. Why is it called Little Europe? For example, the European town built by Huawei in Dongguan is of this style. The inner courtyard should be European style, and so should the castle walls and towers.
It is said to be the underworld because next to the road sign in Shiqiu Town, there is a functional description of the building at the gate of this building complex.
[Alice in the Kingdom of Time・Alice in the Kingdom of Time]
[Yeyoushen Engineering Construction Group Shiqiu Town Public Cemetery]
Luo Ping'an: "Good guy!"
Bu Liuxing: "Good guy!"
The two of them stared at each other, both very surprised.
Bu Liuxing: "Brother Ping An! We have walked for so long! The only thing with light is a cemetery!"
Luo Ping'an: "The name of this tomb is the name of Songdao Seiko's song!"
Bu Liuxing: "Is this the point? Brother Ping An! Wake up!"
"Oh! Oh oh oh" Ping An came back to his senses: "Seeing this scene, I sighed in my heart, if there was such a cemetery in the mortal world called [Love in BC], or [Chapter 7 of Night]
, I think you will too”
Bu Liuxing: "Good guy! I understand! Love requires Yin soldiers to promote idols, right?"
Seeing this strange scene, Meteor's genes exploded, and he was ready to see this cemetery in the old days. After all, there was the only light source for several kilometers.
Walking along the light, past the unmanned guard booth and parking lot railing, and walking to the edge of the first grave, Meteor felt something was not right.
"Wait! Brother Ping An! Why are there no words on the tombstone?!"
Luo Ping'an stopped to take a closer look. There was no writing on the tombstone in the cement tomb, and there were no indentations. The two of them walked in and took a look.
The tombstone suddenly lights up——
——It's like the 32-bit pixel screen of the previous era was powered on again, and a cartoon character was illuminated from it. The style of the painting was similar to that of Super Mario Contra.
Meteor: "Good guy!"
Ping An: "Good guy!"
Brother Hei turned around and ran towards the exit of the cemetery. He stopped only when he reached the intersection. The dog looked like it was extremely scared. It hugged the pillar of the wall next to the cemetery and peed.
The cartoon character blinked, as if he could see these two uninvited guests, speaking fluent Japanese.
"Are you my descendants? Are you here to visit my grave? Sorry, I have to watch a fifteen-second commercial first!~"
