Tuesday, September 7th.
Although Wei Fuyuan and Jiang Nan'an both wanted to find Ran Qu, who was suspected to be the real person of Tianyuan, it was a pity that Ran Qu lived far away. On the map of China, the straight line distance between his city and Fengxing City was more than 2,000 kilometers. The most convenient flight is only twice a day. The daytime flight is already missed, and the remaining flight is at 8:30 in the evening, and it is already early morning when we arrive at the place.
So Beiquan and others decided to wait one more day and set off tomorrow.
But that night, after the three of them fell asleep, they were not able to enter Tianyuan City again.
They can't even dream of the bipolar gate.
It was a sleepy, dreamless night.
At the same time Beiquan and the others were soundly asleep, a thousand miles away, there was a person sitting in front of the computer, staring at the screen impatiently.
He is Ran Qu himself.
The computer screen shows the discussion section of the forum.
It is the second half of the night in China, but it is the active time in Europe and the United States, so the discussion board is filled with a large number of new posts in English, while most of the Chinese posts are squeezed to the back row.
Ran Qu's English was so bad that he couldn't even figure out tenses. Even with automatic translation on, he had to guess 60-70% of the time, let alone debate with the other party.
He alone can't beat the trolls on the Internet.
And no matter how much energy Ran Qu spends on quarreling with these people, the "Two Polar Gate" and "Tianyuan City" that he has worked so hard to plan will never return to the way they used to be.
"what!!!"
Ran Qu let out a hysterical roar, clenched his fists with both hands, and slammed the table hard.
However, he couldn't even vent his emotions well.
"Dong Dong Dong!"
The thin clapboard wall was knocked hard by the neighbors, accompanied by vicious yells:
"What time is it! What's the noise!? Dead sick ghost, why don't you sleep, I have to sleep!"
He lives in a group rented house, and the roommate next door is a man with a strong physique and a ferocious temperament, who can scoop up Ran Qu, who is so thin that he has only a handful of bones, with one hand.
In the dream, Ran Qu was in charge of a huge heavenly city day and night, but in reality he didn't even have the courage to look at his roommate.
Usually, he huddled in his room and rarely went out. Even if he bumped into someone when he went to the toilet, he would hump his chest and shrug his shoulders and call out "Brother Zhang" respectfully.
Now hearing Brother Zhang smashing the wall, Ran Qu was instantly stunned, never recovered from his unwillingness, and dared not make a sound anymore.
In the next second, a more intense grief and despair suddenly swallowed him like a flood.
- I'm so unhappy!
- I'm so unhappy!
Ran Qu bit her lip so hard that she bleeds.
He felt his life was a complete joke.
His biological father died early, and his mother left him like a burden, and he hasn't come back to see him for more than 30 years.
The uncle who pulled him to grow up was obviously a talented gossip, but he was regarded as a deceitful magician because he smashed a commission from the village chief in his early years, causing him to be ridiculed by his teachers and classmates when he was a child.
Even when the uncle's family had a car accident and one death and three injuries occurred, the people in the village never had a good word to say about the incident. They all said that it was the Ran family's retribution for greed for money and many unrighteous acts.
Even worse, this so-called "retribution" finally fell on him.
Ran Qu never imagined that he would suddenly become seriously ill when he was in his prime, or that it was a difficult and severe disease that could only be survived by a liver transplant.
But he had little money left, and he was barely able to maintain daily expenses and monthly medicine money, let alone raise the cost of surgery and follow-up surgery.
Ran Qu felt that he was doomed, and that every day he lived was like a breathing corpse, meaningless at all.
Only the "Bipolar Gate" and "Tianyuan City" can let him escape from the painful reality, transcend the world, and be like a god.
Ran Qu's uncle is a go-getter, and his family runs a dojo that helps people relieve misfortunes and disasters, and fortune-telling, so he collects a lot of bizarre books. Even if the uncle himself can't understand it at all, he will put those books out to make a facade.
The uncle didn't look at it, but Ran Qudao would often look at it.
Although those classics are often esoteric and difficult to understand without anyone's guidance, Ran Qu just likes to flip through them without any hassle, as if he can really see the secrets from them if he just takes a second look.
Ran Qu is so interested in these metaphysical formulas because he has a feeling since he was a child that he is different from "ordinary people".
He felt that he was "gifted".
Ran Qu's inspiration is very strong. He can often perceive things that are invisible to the naked eye. He also sleepwalks from time to time. When he wakes up, he will feel that what he knows and feels in his dreams is so real, as if it really existed.
Later, when Ran Qu was sixteen years old, something happened that made him more sure of his "differentness".
On that day, he described his dream in detail to his cousin like a small talk, but two days later, his cousin came and told him, "I also dreamed of the same scene, and I met my cousin in my dream. How about you, brother!"
Ran Qu was shocked at the time.
Because the night before, he also had such a dream, and also saw his cousin.
Later, Ran Qu performed many similar experiments on his relatives, friends, classmates and even netizens.
He found that most of these experiments were not successful, but once or twice, he was able to "pull" the other person into his dream. Once, he also had a simple conversation with the dreamer.
This usually depends on whether the person listening to his description of the dream is willing to listen and look carefully. Moreover, people with rich association skills tend to have a slightly higher chance of success.
Ran Qu finally determined that he was the "chosen person", talented and different.
He is special.
It's a pity that his specialness has no use in the real world.
He even lived much worse than most people.
Ran Qu felt hatred and hatred.
But no matter how extraordinary and special his abilities are, he can't increase his salary by 2,000 yuan next month, and it can't make his body, which is getting worse day by day, get a little better.
Until he occasionally turned to an ancient book.
&&& &&& &&&
About half a year ago, the uncle of Ran Qu, who had been paralyzed after the car accident, finally died of pneumonia. He returned to his uncle's house and wanted to sell the old house to raise some medical expenses for himself.
While cleaning the house, he occasionally turned to a book.
The book was a blue-leather, thread-bound book called "Zhu Lingxuan Zhen Obtained the Taoist Treasure".
Because it was not carefully kept, the cover of the book was discolored, the edges were frayed, the cotton thread was moldy, and the inner pages were bitten by silverfish with holes.
There are traditional Chinese characters handwritten with a brush, and the book should be written in the late Qing Dynasty or the Republic of China, because the words and sentences are simpler and easier to understand than the vernacular.
Ran Qu casually flipped through two pages, and then his eyes were glued to the page, and he couldn't take it away.
This is a book that teaches people how to cultivate.
At the beginning of the book, the Eight Immortals are listed one by one, saying that these great powers of becoming immortals, in addition to diligent cultivation, are all prepared by talent and opportunity.
Ran Qu feels that he is not lacking in talent, and his ability to attract people's dreams is the best proof.
As for what chance is, the book lists three situations - encountering a true immortal, immortality, and a serious illness that cannot be cured.
Of course, what Ran Qu cares about is the last one.
He quickly read the contents carefully.
According to the "Bao Gao", serious illness is the test of life and death.
After a serious illness, people will inevitably become enlightened and enlightened, and then they will transcend the constraints of the world and not be trapped by the five thieves.
If you were an ordinary person, seeing such absurd explanations, you would probably just laugh it off.
But Ran Qu was a patient.
Still a seriously ill person who was almost in despair.
When people are mentally fragile, they will subconsciously look for spiritual support, which is why people who are "old and sick" are always particularly easy to convert to religion.
So did Ran Qu.
He took "Bao Gao" as his life-saving straw, and believed every word in his heart.
Afterwards, he began to study the "Bao Gao" every day, hoping to find a way to become a fairy.
…
…
Ran Qu found a method of cultivation in "Bao Gao", saying that he can imagine the outline of the gossip in his mind during meditation or meditation, so as to help himself better enter the state of meditation and sense the essence of the world.
Ran Qu tried it and found it to be very effective.
After persevering for a month, his dreams became clearer and clearer day by day, and he seemed to have self-consciousness, evolving from a simple yin and yang fish to a "bipolar gate".
So Ran Qu began to imagine what the "door" looked like.
Because he wants to become immortal, he naturally hopes that there will be a fairyland behind the "door".
To be more precise, it was a wonderland that could free him from all the hardships and hardships in the world.
[you can do it.]
Ran Qu heard a voice say so in his mind.
It was an unfamiliar, never heard voice.
And what the other party said was very inspiring.
[You can create a whole new [World].]
[That [World] will be controlled by you.]
[You are the omnipotent God.]
The voice told him:
[You have to make more and more people believe in you.]
[Then, you will become a true god in that [world].]
&&& &&& &&&
Ran Qu thought that the voice was his apocalypse.
Because since that voice appeared, Ran Qu found that his ability had obviously become stronger.
His control of dreams became more and more handy, and soon he "opened" the "gate of polarities" and began to build the fairyland in his mind.
Ran Qu no longer works, relying on the few remaining savings of domestic goods, sleeping all day and night, except for the necessary physical needs of eating and drinking, he almost never gets out of bed.
It took him about another two months to build the "Tianyuan City" into what he had in mind, and he started the second step.
