Volume Two Dusty Memory Chapter 37 Three Questions
"Is this the origin of the Sea Burial Master?" Long Kui asked softly at this time, as if he had never heard of this secret history.
"Jie Jie, the world is so big, there are so many things that you don't understand. I can tell you that this place was all done by the sea burying master, so listen clearly and feel free to come in if you want to die." Li Yan half-squinted.
He closed his eyes and took a sip of the fragrant tea in his hand.
The three of them were so shocked that they didn't know how to reply for a moment, and the room fell into silence.
"I know you have many doubts, so each of you can ask one question, but it's up to me to decide whether to answer or not." Li Yan said slowly when he saw that several people were silent.
It was just a chance, and there was no guarantee that he would answer or not, which put the three of them in a dilemma again.
"Don't you want to ask? It's getting late, and the old woman is a little sleepy."
"I asked, was this place built before the king came here?" Great Grandpa originally had too many questions, but this was the one he blurted out.
"Jie Jie, baby, make a decision and act. But I can answer this question. Yes, this is what that person left here." Li Yan returned, but Grandpa noticed that her eyes lit up every time she mentioned that person.
There's one more thing.
"Then what is the name of that king?" Grandpa Grandpa was already very upset at this time. If he could know the name of the king, he might be able to find out the identity of this person.
"It's not a good thing to be greedy, Jie Jie. I told you that each person can only ask one question." Li Yan half-squinted his eyes and stared at Grandpa Grandpa coldly. Grandpa Grandpa felt as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake, and his heart pounded.
Jumping up and down.
"This..." Grandpa hesitated for a long time and finally said no more.
"Jie Jie, let's go next." Li Yan seemed to be very satisfied with Grandpa Grandpa's approach and sat on the Grand Master's chair with half-squinted eyes.
"Excuse me, mother-in-law, what is the king's name?" Liu'er whispered softly, actually answering the great-grandfather's doubts.
Grandpa was also stunned and looked at the girl in front of him stupidly, wondering why she would do this.
"Jiejie, does Miss Liu'er have a crush on this young master?" Li Yan did not answer, but instead teased Liu'er.
"I, no." Liu Er said this hesitantly, with a shy blush on her cheeks.
"Liu'er, what question did you ask?" Long Kui didn't know the content of the conversation without Liu'er's gestures, but he guessed about it from Liu'er's expression.
"Jie Jie, don't pay attention to him." Li Yan was happy to see Long Kui angry and said leisurely.
"Mother-in-law, I don't know if I can answer you." Liu'er said, her soft whispering look was very cute.
Although my great-grandfather was only twelve years old, he still had some sense that his heart was in turmoil at this time, as if something was scurrying around.
"Of course you can. My old woman likes the beauty of adults the most. But I can't tell you the name of the king. I can only tell you that we all call him Master Jiu." Li Yan said slowly, but actually he was thinking in his heart, Master Jiu? How so?
It's a jerky title. Do you know how much I want to call you Brother Nine like I used to do in the past?
"Ninth Master?" Grandpa Tai murmured softly, frowning slightly, but there was no such impression of such a prince in his mind.
"Okay, Miss Liu'er, you can let Long Kui ask the last question." Li Yan's voice was slightly sleepy and he yawned slightly.
"What I want to ask is, this place probably has a history of thousands of years, and whether you, Li Yan, are dead or alive." Long Kui asked coldly, without any emotion in his words.
"So what about life? So what about death? Have you ever seen a dead person sitting here drinking tea and talking?" Li Yan smiled and replied, but did not answer directly.
"Then you are alive? Why are you here?"
"Jiejie, how can a person live for a thousand years?" The wrinkles on Li Yan's face were stacked together, making him look panicked.
"It's better not to speak if you don't speak clearly."
"Really? Are life and death important to you? Life may be eternal loneliness, and death may be a kind of relief." Li Yan thought for a long time before saying this, so that Grandpa Grandpa felt that there was something hidden in this old woman.
Many secrets.
"If you are born to wait for death, why bother to be born?" Long Kui was silent for a long time before slowly replying.
"That's your business, what does it have to do with me?" Li Yan is a capricious woman. Sometimes she speaks like a gentle woman, and sometimes she is cold and ruthless.
"So, anyone who stands in my way will die." Long Kui's words contained murderous intent, clearly telling Li Yan in front of him that no matter you are dead or alive, if you stand in my way, your life will be yours.
"Death? I said, sometimes death may be a kind of relief."
"How happy is life, and how painful is death? The so-called Zen is just self-comfort."
"The so-called Zen, maybe. The old woman is very old and is now in trouble. Please invite the three of you, and the Corpse King will take you to his residence." Li Yan lightly covered his mouth. If this posture appeared on the cardamom girl, it might be graceful.
, but it is really uncomfortable to appear on this old woman.
"Hmph, Li Yan, do you really think of my Corpse King as yours?" Long Kui's voice was filled with dissatisfaction, as if he was eager to get the Corpse King back.
"You want the Corpse King back? The Corpse Keeper's Corpse King has fallen into the hands of others, and he is not afraid of making others laugh when he says it." Li Yan's words were thorny, clearly saying that Long Kui was incompetent.
"Dad?" Liu Er asked Long Kui softly, feeling a little at a loss for a moment.
"Since you've come, let's be in peace. Since the master has spoken, please go ahead." Long Kui recovered his emotions for a moment and actually stood up.
"There is only one corpse king. If you bring two more corpses, I can consider letting them lead the way at the same time. Unfortunately, there is only one now. So please invite them one by one. My old woman will say one more thing and remember to follow the corpse king, otherwise this will happen.
If I lose my way in the maze, I won't be too troublesome about what happens." Li Yan was really tit-for-tat with Long Kui, and they were tit-for-tat at every turn.
"Humph." Long Kui stopped talking and walked out of the house on his own.
At this time, Li Yan didn't speak, and took out an incense stick from somewhere. Li Yan pinched three fingers with his fingers as if telling fortunes, and then rubbed them lightly with his thumb and index finger, and the incense burned quickly. The green smoke curled up, but
They didn't disperse and went straight to the Corpse King. This time, the wisp of green smoke penetrated into the Corpse King's nostrils, and the Corpse King slowly left with Long Kui.
When Grandpa Grandpa saw Long Kui being taken away, his heart tightened and he was thinking about where to go. When he thought of this, Grandpa Grandpa felt as if his head was going to explode. The irritability filled his heart and he always wanted to find something to vent his anger on.
Miss Liu'er also frowned, and her slender fingers were tightly clasped in her palms, with a little blood oozing out.
Li Yan shook his head, took out another incense, and lit it with two fingers. Although the appearance of this incense was no different from the previous one, the smoke that burned this time was blue.
The blue smoke still did not disperse. Instead, it split into two and slowly got into the nostrils of Liu'er and Grandpa. The smoke came so unexpectedly that the two of them were not prepared at all. When the smoke got into their nostrils,
The two of them felt itchy in their noses and inhaled sharply.
The two of them secretly complained that Li Yan would not deliberately sideline Long Kui and do something secretly, but they gave up the thought as soon as it came up, and instead felt calm in their hearts.
"This smoke?" Liu'er felt comfortable and said it unconsciously.
"Please." Li Yan signaled, and Liu'er realized that the Corpse King had returned to the house.
After Liu'er left, my great-grandfather became more and more calm, and he actually sipped the fragrant tea leisurely and contentedly.
Similarly, after not long waiting, the Corpse King returned to the house again. This time Li Yan just stretched out his hand to signal Grandpa Grandpa to follow the Corpse King.
Although my great-grandfather was calm, he couldn't help but stay a little longer. After being polite, he turned around and left.
"Two dogs." The moment the great-grandpa turned his head, Li Yan suddenly called out to the great-grandpa.
"Huh? What's wrong, mother-in-law?"
"It's okay, let's go." Li Yan waved his hand, but stopped mid-sentence.
Grandpa turned his head and walked out of the room slowly, but the sight of looking back echoed in his mind, and he couldn't even believe his eyes. (To be continued)
