Chapter 479: Due to the fog, the relics of the old friend
Among the ruins, there were brick walls that were burnt black everywhere, and the underground weeds were nearly three feet high and waist-high.
Based on the comparison in the dream, Lin Shan came to the southwest of his hometown, where the location in his memory matched.
This is a corner. After the fire and decades of wind and rain, half of the upper part collapsed.
There are no bones underneath. It may have been picked up by wild animals, blown away by strong winds, or washed away by rain. Anyway, Master Pu's bones cannot be found.
Lin Shan has locked onto this place with his fresh and warm memories.
Since Master Pu's bones cannot be found, after so many years, I just hope that the traces left will not be worn away.
Come closer.
He gently touched the wall with his hands. Wherever the magic power passed, layers of black fine gray fell down with a "puff puff", revealing the groove marks one stroke after another.
After he gently wiped the entire wall, there were indeed words engraved on it!
The strokes in it are vigorous and powerful, which shows that Master Pu was an old escort who had profound skills and was at the peak of Zang refining. The traces of his writings have not been erased after many years.
[Boy, I don’t know if you will be able to read this passage when you return many years later. 】
[The old man has lived for more than half his life and has no one to rely on. As long as he knows the escorts, it is estimated that no one can escape during this roundup. The only one who is at large is you. 】
[If you can come back safely, please ask you to look after the whole family for me. The Lin family's bodyguard agency can find the family members. The government only arrests those involved in the case to save the Lin family's face. The family members should not be harmed. They should still be alive. 】
[My wife is stupid, and my rebellious son is a gambler. I hope you can help and discipline me. 】
[After everything is done, there is a treasure left by my ancestors under the locust tree at home, which I will treat as a reward for you. Anyway, instead of gambling away it to the traitor, it is better to give it to you to protect them. 】
[Whether it can happen or not depends entirely on God’s will. 】
[If you are not the one you entrusted to me, I hope you will be kind-hearted and do good deeds. 】
The last sentence is just in case.
If Lin Shan hadn't seen this sentence and was accidentally discovered by others, I hope he could also help him.
Lin Shan let out a long sigh. The escort money case was too involved back then, and no one dared to get involved with the gang of escort masters who committed the crime, for fear of being implicated.
Master Pu was at the end of his rope and had no one to rely on. All he could think of was Lin Shan who had escaped halfway, so he wrote these words before his death, even though it was just an illusory expectation.
If Lin Shan hadn't been reminded by dreams, he would never have imagined that Master Pu still had this past event.
Because when we rescued the bodyguards in the prison, all they got was that Master Pu had disappeared a long time ago. Many people even thought that the old guy had sneaked away at the critical moment and abandoned them.
Who knew that the old man was so desperate that he set himself on fire here.
"Well, if you had been arrested at that time and could withstand the disaster of prison, you might have been rescued by me in three years."
Lin Shan was filled with emotion, turned around and flicked his sleeves.
"Wow!"
The entire wall collapsed, and the last traces of Master Pu left in the world finally disappeared.
And the purpose of coming here this time can be regarded as truly achieved.
The reality of dreams can be 100% confirmed!
So, since Master Pu’s incident is true.
Most other dreams also have different secrets!
The mysterious message I received at work in my past life. In the future, Lin Fan sent a message to me after the battle with the mysterious old man. The Emperor of Heaven left a Tao Mark Futon in the Heavenly Court
These key nodes seem to be hinting at something secretly.
However, now Lin Shan knows some information in advance, the future in the dream
Will it still be the future?
Will this change due to the butterfly effect?
If you are prepared, can you change your fate against the odds?
He was shivering all over, and there was a kind of fear lingering in his heart, as if he was trapped in a huge whirlpool, involuntarily, like a chess piece being played around.
Who laid out the plan in the long river of time?
And these dreams, maybe another mastermind is behind the scenes? Trying to let him know something?
Is it to save him, or to disrupt other people's plans?
"No!"
"All this is completely my guess!"
"I decide my destiny. Everything I want to do at this stage is based on my will. No one is controlling me!"
"What will happen in the future? It has not happened yet. In the dream, whether it is the past life or the legacy of the Emperor of Heaven, it is all in the past!"
"Only Lin Fan's fragment is the future! He is saving our past, so what will happen to me in the future is only known to Lin Fan in the future. How can others predict it?"
"The long river of time is rushing forward, and the future will sail to countless tributaries and produce countless endings. No one can control it!"
"So when I stand at this moment, it is the only present! I am me, everything is unified, and I am the only present!"
He kept dictating excitedly, and kept convincing himself, which was also stabilizing his Taoist heart.
The ancients often said that enlightenment is the process of self-realization.
It is not reaching the top at the last moment that is called enlightenment.
Enlightenment must be a process from low to high, through countless days and nights of struggle and climbing, constantly strengthening oneself and controlling the heart of the Tao. Only by moving forward bravely and not being moved by external things can you achieve the path and fruition!
Lin Shan is now in the midst of countless hypotheticals of parallel time and space, and the direction of countless tributaries of the long river of time in the future, firming up his current self and not being shaken by what he sees in his dreams!
"Is this the fog of time and space? I finally saw it!"
Lin Shan barely suppressed the gray fog rising from his body, and his mind returned to calm.
Just now, his mind was lost, time and space took the opportunity to cause chaos due to the fog, and all kinds of distracting thoughts and demons came one after another, almost making him doomed!
He even suspected that the dream space and time might be a trap, inducing him to hold back his curiosity and keep exploring. In the end, the time and space entangled with him became more and more foggy, which actually killed himself.
"I don't want to think about it anymore. Let's first understand Master Pu's last wish and end this cause and effect as soon as possible."
Lin Shan shook his head hard and returned to reality.
The side effects of traveling through time and space were so great that it made his head swollen and his heart pounding with fear. He secretly made up his mind to let Xiaodie do as little as possible to allow him to have dreams in the future if it was not necessary.
After Xiaodie finished squandering the fluorescent powder on her wings, she was so tired that she fell asleep and remained motionless in his hand.
Send Xiaodie into the spirit beast ring and rest on the leaves of the ancient phantom tree.
Lin Shan raised his eyes and looked around.
Mountains are still mountains, and water is still water. The ruins of remote villages have never been visited by anyone. Perhaps thousands of years later, they will be completely returned to nature.
"Pah! Pah! Pah!"
The sound of whipping rattan could be heard in the distance. Brother Ji picked it up from somewhere and added his own demonic power to it, which can specifically target spiritual bodies.
"Oh oh oh! Have you memorized it by heart? In the future, when people ask you what the teachings of the Kun Sect are, how will you answer them?"
The three evil spirit brothers were in agony and screamed repeatedly.
"Ouch! Peak. Peak produces false support."
"Ouch! Witness the devout believers at dusk!"
"Amon!!!"
Seeing that these three people finally had some consciousness and recognized the Kun Sect from the bottom of their hearts, Chicken Brother nodded with satisfaction.
It wants to convince people with virtue, and this is only the first step.
"Okay, we've had enough trouble and let's hit the road."
Lin Shan came over and took the three evil spirit brothers back to the spirit beast rings in time to avoid being tortured by Brother Chicken. The main thing was to be careful when going out to prevent others from seeing him feeding evil spirits.
Chicken Brother was still not satisfied and threw away the cane and jumped on his shoulder. A rainbow of light flashed across the sky, and the place became quiet.
Qinghe County, Zhaizi Lane.
"Old man, don't give me a toast or drink as a fine! I asked for a lot of money yesterday, hand it all over!"
Four or five gangsters were bullying an old beggar and plundering him for any possible oil or water.
The old beggar's face was stained, his clothes were in tatters, and his shoes were so worn that his toes were missing.
"Uncles, I really didn't get any money! Yesterday, a kind man gave me leftover food to eat. If you don't believe me, you can ask the beggar opposite!"
He explained feebly, paralyzed there with his heart exposed, unable to resist the bullying, and seemed to have been accustomed to this kind of life.
The gangsters came forward and searched him, but found nothing. They cursed and kicked him a few times and left together. The old man remained motionless like a dead dog.
The sunlight at the entrance of the alley was suddenly blocked by a figure, and unfamiliar footsteps came
All the beggars in this alley raised their heads and looked where they came from.
It was a slender young man, with a chicken sitting on his shoulder looking around.
"Who is Pu Yuan?"
The young man shouted at this place. It was quiet and deserted inside. When the beggars saw that they were not alms, they all turned around and continued to lie down.
Only the old beggar moved slightly, but he pretended not to hear it. There were memories in his cloudy eyes, and he leaned against the wall and looked at the sky quietly.
Lin Shan returned all the way to Qinghe County and went to Lin's Escort Bureau that day to search Master Pu's files and found the names of his wife and children.
As a result, after many searches, we found out that his son Pu Yuan had lost all his family fortune due to gambling in his early years. His mother was sick and angry to death, and the house was mortgaged to others.
I had no choice but to ask along the way.
"Who knows the whereabouts of Pu Yuan? Anyone who provides clues will be rewarded with ten taels of silver!"
Lin Shan dropped a sentence as always and was about to leave and continue asking.
If there is no news after searching Qinghe County, then he can only assume that Master Pu is dead, and there is nothing he can do about it.
But this time it was different, there was a weak voice behind him.
"Sir, I know the news about Pu Yuan!"
Lin Shan turned around, expressionless.
"Speak."
The old beggar looked at him eagerly and smacked his lips.
"Bang!"
A cloth bag rolled down in front of him, and a silver luster could be seen flashing through the bag's mouth.
The beggars in the entire alley were once again attracted to their attention, and they all cast their greedy eyes over.
The old beggar hurriedly put the bag into his arms, without daring to open it to check. He stood up and walked towards the entrance of the alley. Beggars behind him one after another also stood up pretending to follow him unintentionally.
"Sir, Pu Yuan passed away forty years ago!"
The old beggar explained lightly, and his face flashed with joy.
I didn't expect to earn ten taels easily. The next step was how to keep the money from being robbed. I still had to get to a crowded street as soon as possible and find ways to change places.
"Stop!"
Lin Shan was not fooled so easily and continued to ask.
"How did you die, where are you buried, and where are your descendants? Tell me clearly before you leave."
"Uh"
The old beggar paused and glanced behind him. When he saw many colleagues approaching him with malicious intentions, he felt a rush in his heart. He gritted his teeth and rushed towards the alley.
“Bang~”
"Ouch!"
An invisible air wall blocked the entrance of the alley, knocking a big bag out of his head. He staggered and fell to the ground, and the bag in his arms was knocked out again.
A group of beggars behind him had bright eyes, and they swarmed up to grab it.
Lin Shan just waved his sleeves, and all the people were instantly thrown back by the air waves, and they all lay on the ground and kept wailing.
How could they not understand now that the young man in front of them was a martial arts master!
"Pu Yuan's matter, tell me everything in detail! It's best not to let me find out that you are lying to me"
The old beggar was agitated all over. Suddenly his heart became cold and he felt a murderous aura. He rolled over and kowtowed in front of him.
"Sir, Pu Yuan is my father. Back then, he abandoned his wife and children while gambling, made his grandmother angry, and even lost his house to someone else!"
"He himself fell into a river and drowned after drinking, and his mother had to remarry. As the only son, I was chased by creditors to repay my father's debt, and I have been wandering and begging to this day."
"Everything I said is true. If I conceal anything, I will be struck by lightning!"
"What's your name?"
Lin Shan looked at this old man, who was already in his fifties or sixties. He didn't expect that he was Pu Yuan's son and Master Pu's grandson!
"Little old Pujie."
The old beggar trembled and knelt on the ground, but his eyes were still wandering, and he couldn't help but glance at the cloth bag containing silver on the ground.
Lin Shan didn't talk nonsense to him. He observed the mood swings through his spiritual consciousness. He didn't verify the authenticity, but turned around.
"Pick up the silver and follow me!"
The old beggar stood up, picked up the cloth bag, and ran out of the alley with Lin Shan without looking back. The beggars behind him stared at each other, and no one dared to chase him out.
In a dilapidated and scrawled courtyard in the west of the city, an old locust tree stood quietly.
"This is the ancestral home of your Pu family?"
Lin Shan looked around and found a couple inside, making a fire and making smoke.
The old beggar Pu Jie nodded and bowed, wondering in his mind which family this noble man belonged to. Was he related to his ancestors? But why so young?
"Bang Bang Bang~"
He went up and knocked on the door. The people inside heard the sound. After a while, a middle-aged man opened the door and stuck his head out.
"Who are you?"
Lin Shan came forward to negotiate and cut through the mess quickly.
Within half an hour, the couple took the money, happily pushed the cart, packed up their belongings, and left the yard directly.
The old beggar had a dull look on his face, looking at the house deed in his hand as if in a dream.
"From now on, the ancestral home belongs to you, and I have fulfilled my promise."
Lin Shan didn't talk nonsense to him, but walked directly to the old locust tree, spread his fingers and sucked hard!
The soil below was opened directly, and a dark red iron box buried deep in the ground flew out. The outside was rusty and had been hidden for an unknown amount of time.
The old beggar Pu Yuan was very sensible and lowered his head and turned his back to avoid looking. Years of wandering made him understand that sometimes pretending to be stupid is the best way to save his life.
Lin Shan opened the iron box, and an ugly and broken bowl with broken porcelain appeared in his hand.
Brother Chicken burst out laughing when he saw it, and finally couldn't help but start making noises.
"Oh oh oh, is this what you're doing all this time for?"
