Master and Uncle Hui went to see Yuan Yi early in the morning. He also told me that now that he is back, he will take Yuan Xi with him for a while. Master did not comment on the right or wrong of my hasty decision. , he just said: "Since the matter has been done, then just bear the consequences of the consequences calmly. As for whether it is right or wrong, that is just a question that needs to be considered before something happens."
I didn't follow Master and the others to see Yuan Yi, but I stayed up all night with bloodshot eyes and continued to think about how I should choose. It turned out that the choice I needed to make to be with Ruxue was really so difficult.
"Ling Qing and I also had a relationship back then. You know that the Tao family is not taboo about marriage. Of course, Gu girls are not taboo about marriage either. So in your opinion, should we be together? Should Ling Qing be together? Is she your master’s wife?”
"Why are we not together? Because I made a choice and she also made a choice. This is the reason why we are not together. You are my apprentice, but I didn't expect that the bond between our master and apprentice is so deep. To the extent that even the emotional path you want to take is the same as mine."
Master's words kept swirling in my mind. I jumped up from the bed, flushed my head with cold water, looked at myself in the mirror with red eyes, and finally made a decision.
The rest is just up to Ruxue to decide if she really likes me.
Thinking about the decision in my heart, I looked at myself in the mirror and smiled bitterly. It turns out that the process of life is really not about constantly having something, but about constantly giving up something, until in the end I have to give up my life. go.
There is only one thing to learn in the middle, that is, in the process of letting go, you have to learn to let go and face it.
Therefore, those who can see through it have transcended, and those who cannot see through it will continue to reincarnate.
The freedom of the gods turned out to be just given up again and again, and finally it became an indestructible heart.
The truth is simple, but can I give it up
-------Dividing line--------
Two days later, I left Beijing again. What was sad was that my family’s reunion was always so short. My son (brother) was always so wandering, and I couldn’t help him with the things he had to face. Not even a clue.
I held my father in one arm and hugged my mother in the other. I looked at my sister apologetically and said as easily as possible: "From when I was a child to my choice, I thought you were all used to this. Don't be sad, maybe I will be here again." Suddenly appeared. Besides, didn’t Master also say that in a few years, I can still see my parents and family often."
I don't know if my comfort has any effect, but whether it has any effect, I can only pack my bags and continue setting off.
Compared with the previous separations, this time I had no tears and was much more mature and calm. I just looked at the gradually blurring figures of my family on the car window, but the sadness in my heart was inexplicably heavier.
Master was sitting next to me, watching this scene, and he suddenly said: "Sanwa'er, the only thing that makes Master happier than you is that Master is an orphan. All other sufferings are the same."
At that time, I didn't think about the profound meaning of this sentence. Later, I really realized that the suffering was the same. Compared with me, Master was not necessarily a free and easy person.
We are also all people of temperament.
This operation is not our private operation. Just like the old village chief's operation, there are shadows of relevant departments behind it. Even this operation is even more grand because a real army of hundreds of people will be dispatched. , cooperate with our actions.
But this unit will not appear in the early stage. This is due to many aspects of consideration. They will only appear to work together after our actions go smoothly.
As for the 'bomb' that Heiyan Miao Village quietly placed in the country, Master told me that after many years of research and many people's efforts, they have found a very possible solution, so I must take the risk and give it a try.
And this time, the number of people accompanying us has also increased greatly. In addition to my master and me, Uncle Chen and Brother Chengxin also participated in the operation. In addition, there are more than 20 people accompanying us from the department.
Master told me that among the twenty-odd people, twenty were from our Taoist family, and the remaining few inherited witchcraft.
They will first go to the small town in western Hunan to make some preparations, and our group is going to Yueyan Miao Village to find a few big witches to cooperate with the operation.
The day of action was set in the winter of this year, because a lot of preparation work had to be done, and it had to be winter.
Master said that in winter, the insects in Heiyan Miao Village would be easier to deal with.
He also told me: "You have half a year between now and winter."
I know that this half-year period refers to Ruxue and I. Oh, we have half a year.
In the car, Master also told me some things as promised.
"Do you remember the Tomb of the Hungry Ghost? You once picked up a strange piece of jade?" This is how Master mentioned the whole thing to me.
How could I forget Tomb of the Hungry Ghost? And I still remember that piece of jade. There was a strange smiling face on it. That was the first time I saw that strange smiling face.
Facing Master's question, I nodded, although I didn't know how the whole thing involved the Tomb of the Hungry Ghost.
"The symbol of the organization that cooperates with Black Rock Miao Village is the smiling face, so that organization is also the organization that built the Tomb of Hungry Ghosts." The master said lightly.
I was surprised: "Building the Tomb of Hungry Ghosts? I grew up in that area since I was a child. Master, you are also there. How can such a big project be carried out quietly? It can only mean that the Tomb of Hungry Ghosts has existed for a long time. Could it be that this organization ...?"
"Your judgment is correct. That organization has existed since the early Qing Dynasty. Their existence has only one purpose, and that is to become a god! In other words, it is the pursuit of eternal life. They have no moral constraints, and they have many forces and forces behind them. Financial support, you have to know that there are many people in this world who want to live an extra ten or twenty years, not to mention those who pursue eternal life. And the people who are most afraid of death are often the rich and powerful. "Master explained to me this way.
I immediately thought of Xiao Chengqian. He is such a madman. He really has no restraints. In his eyes, only that purpose is the most important.
Master opened the car window, lit up a dry cigarette, took a puff, and continued to say to me: "Actually, I heard about that organization when I was young, but I felt that they were far away from my life, even to me. I wasn't sure if they still existed. It wasn't until I discovered the Tomb of the Hungry Ghosts that I was sure of their existence, and it wasn't until I found out that the evil-looking smiling face was the symbol of that organization. Maybe they have become popular over the years. That's why the activities became rampant, maybe..." The master bit the dry tobacco pole and stopped talking.
What else might it be? Master frowned and never said anything to me.
Instead, he sighed and said, "Speaking of which, I was the one who harmed Yang Sheng. If I hadn't asked him to contact the investigation organization to find out about the Tomb of Hungry Ghosts, he wouldn't have contacted that organization. Yang Sheng never understood that crazy ideas will only lead to crazy destruction in the end, and will never be the right way. Otherwise, the temptation of eternal life will tempt the whole world. Why is it not tempting the whole world? It is because among high-level people, sobriety There are still the majority, and ordinary people still live ordinary lives and don’t have to worry about this problem.”
I remained silent. Yes, the behavior of this organization is simply destructive and does not care about any consequences. If they were allowed to do so, and a world would be destroyed by them in exchange for a possible eternal life, most senior officials would definitely not want to see it.
No one can bear this crime! Even if such eternal life is certain, few people dare to bear such a sinful eternal life and face a desolate world! That's not eternal life, that's eternal torment.
Why is Brother Sheng so persistent
"What is there in the Black Rock Miao Village? You know, from the moment I discovered that organization, I knew that the Black Rock Miao Village would not let them go, but I didn't expect them to come so quickly." Master bit his cigarette rod and continued to talk to me. .
Of course I know about the heaven-defying bugs in Heiyan Miao Village, which may be very close to the so-called concept of immortality, but... I think of the tube connecting people and bugs, and feel a chill in my heart.
But I also remembered a more serious question, and I couldn't help but ask: "Master, does that organization have anything to do with our lineage?"
