"Really? That thing is the relic that Tibetan Living Buddha Brenda asked me to bring down. It seems that the people from the Tianli Sect have already run away." I sighed and shook my head.
"They are still in the underworld." Meng Po said with certainty: "In fact, the underworld and the world of the living are two different spaces. You don't have to be in Half a Step to return to the world of the living. But other places are blocked by the power of the Ten Kings, and only souls in Half a Step can enter and exit. When you came here, it was because you had a master to protect you. You opened the blockade of King Yama in front of you and entered the Yellow Spring Road, but King Yama knew your whereabouts when you came in. Similarly, the Tianli Sect can only return to the world of the living from Half a Step, but it is not realistic. After this incident, the ghost messenger of Half a Step tripled the defense force, and you can't go back to other places. Now the Ten Kings are looking for people from the Tianli Sect in the underworld, so you don't have to worry about this."
"Huh, that's good." I turned around and lay on the bed, and subconsciously asked: "Meng Po, is it reliable to forget the person you love?" I thought of the love potion that Living Buddha Brenda Baoli gave me. This thing is similar to Meng Po's Meng Po Soup, but the effect of Meng Po Soup is more powerful.
"Are you?" Mengpo glanced at me and said, "It depends on the situation. Sometimes forgetting someone you like is a good thing. You don't have to suffer from the pain of missing him all day long. The original purpose of my researching Mengpo Soup was because of this, I wanted to forget him." "
"But in the end you still didn't drink the Meng Po soup." I turned my head and looked at Meng Po.
Meng Po nodded, holding her chin with her hand and said, "Yes, how could I forget him? After I gave him the Meng Po soup and let him reincarnate, I kept reminding myself and made myself hate him. I was afraid of forgetting him, so I kept finding reasons to hate him, at least to prevent myself from forgetting him. The funny thing is that in the end I still didn't have the courage to forget him."
"Since ancient times, those who are affectionate will always end up with empty regrets, and those who are affectionate will always be hurt by the heartless." Meng Po sighed.
I asked, "What happened between you and him (Fang Pengguang's previous life)? Tell me about it."
"Hey." Then Meng Po began to tell me the story of her and Fang Pengguang's past lives. (For details, please read Fang Pengguang's Biography.) After Meng Po finished, when I heard that Fang Pengguang died on the battlefield in his past life for his loyalty to his country, and that Meng Po had waited for so many years, I sighed and said, "It's not his fault, and it's worth it to die for his ideals. Besides, men should die on the battlefield..."
Before I could continue, Mengpo shook her head and said, "You are wrong. You men always say that you sacrifice your family for the sake of the country. You have a country before you have a family. These are all excuses. Can you abandon me for your own ideals? Do you know how much I love him?"
"He could have survived. If he had just disobeyed the military order, he could have come back to be with me."
"That would make him appear disloyal, unfilial and unjust. You are from that era and you know the seriousness of disobeying military orders, right?" I looked at Meng Po and asked.
Meng Po shook her head: "So what if he sacrificed his life for the country? In the end, all he got was three days of suffering for his parents. The country didn't give him a penny more. For the sake of his illusory loyalty, he made me wait for him for decades in vain. For his illusory loyalty, is this the only reason?"
I listened to Meng Po's words without saying anything. Perhaps Meng Po was right. Many people often talk about lofty ideals and ambitions, but often neglect their families and their loved ones. How can a person who can't even take care of his wife and children be qualified to talk about life, ideals, and revenge
"Maybe you are right." I nodded. Meng Po looked at me and said, "You should think about it carefully."
"Think about it?" I looked at Meng Po and asked puzzledly.
Meng Po nodded and said, "Although I don't know what you think, I can tell you clearly that a woman will never allow her man to have other women in his heart besides herself."
"What if there is an exception?" I said weakly.
"No exceptions!" Meng Po glared at me and said, "Do you think this is from those online novels? Men have three wives and four concubines, and those women act like good sisters to them. Ugh! Women are all selfish, just like you men. Can you men tolerate your women having another husband besides you? This is reality. Can you wake up a little? I'm only telling you so much for Qi Liang's (Fang Pengguang) sake. This is not a threat, but an advice. If you want the person you like to be disappointed in you and leave you one day, you can try this. You can either be with that Qiu Xiang or that Su Daji. Don't act like you're in trouble all day. The world doesn't revolve around you, brother! Make a decision quickly so that others can find a better man!"
Meng Po said this in a loud voice, and seemed a little angry. I was speechless for a moment, and I didn't know what to say. Should I say that I love Qiuxiang? Or do I love Su Daji
"Then how about I give Su Daji the love potion?" I looked at Meng Po and asked. Meng Po shook her head and said, "Take care of yourself. I'm just telling you the problem from a woman's perspective. The final decision is in your hands. Judging from you, both women are good girls. Cherish one of them. A girl who truly loves you is worthy of your lifelong love. Don't dream of having both. This will only hurt their hearts. That's all I have to say. Take care of yourself. Your injury has healed. You can go out for a walk when you have time. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first and see you tomorrow." After saying that, Meng Po turned and left.
After Meng Po closed the door, I fell into deep thought. I kept thinking about what Meng Po told me. To be honest, I was very confused. In fact, there were only two questions in my mind: Do I love Su Daji or not
Of course, no matter what the answers to these two questions are, the final result is nothing more than that Su Daji and I drink the love potion and forget each other, which is the best option
If I was filled with endless doubts and indecision after Brenda told me, then Meng Po's words just now had basically made me make up my mind. It was mainly because Meng Po's words were too harsh. Of course, they were also true. I stood up and stretched my body. I walked to the window of the house and opened it. Outside was the town next to the Naihe Bridge. At this moment, there was a lot of traffic below, and many ghost shadows were walking around.
