Chapter 627: What a Miserable Loser (33)
The letter was written by Daochang Chen a long time ago, but he continued to write it until recently.
The other party had long expected such a day, so he wrote the letter in advance and asked his cronies to hand the letter to Zero One if something happened to him.
Chen Daochang was not a talkative person during his lifetime, but after his death he wrote a lot in his letter, which lasted eight pages.
In the letter, he did not have the confidence he had before in front of the villagers. Instead, he seemed like a talkative old man, spouting out what was in his heart.
He is not a Liangshan monk at all, just a wanderer, and he is still illiterate.
After his hometown was massacred by the Demon Sect, he went south with the victims. Later, someone discovered the hidden Taoist robe, so he could only stand up reluctantly.
After all, everyone was watching him at that time. If he made the slightest mistake, he might be beaten to death, so he had no choice but to lie.
So, he called himself a monk and said that he had calculated that this place was a rare treasure and everyone could settle here.
After discovering that Ling Yi might be able to read, he specially asked people to gather food, rescued Ling Yi, and then began to direct everyone to work.
And he was really lucky. Although this place was located in a remote place, there was no shortage of food, which gradually made him a climate.
But he knew that he was not a monk after all. If someone finds out, this place will definitely lose public confidence and be destroyed in an instant.
So, he made up a lie for himself that he was seriously injured, and the tricks he used from time to time were actually his deceptions. As long as your hands are quick enough, you can pretend to be anything.
Because he was illiterate, he would go to Zero One's classroom under the guise of inspection, then secretly listen to the class, and study continuously at night.
Since he is not a monk, Daochang Chen is just an ordinary old man. Each word needs to be learned many times before he can be memorized, and the written words are also crooked.
At first, Daochang Chen was complaining.
He said that he pretended to be very hard, and had to make up more lies for one lie, until he finally believed it.
He also said that the body-building exercises he asked them to practice every day were real, because he was once saved by an upright monk, who taught him this.
When I was teaching it, the other party said that this body-building method was easy to get started with, and anyone with some qualifications could develop a sense of energy, but the upper limit was very low.
However, he has not been raised alive and well. It depends on whether Zero One and the others can raise him.
He also said that he actually wanted to escape several times, but every time he walked far away and turned around to see the village under construction, he came back inexplicably.
The village needs a hope, and he is that hope.
As long as this bubble does not burst, it will always be able to sustain itself.
As for when it will be broken... we will tell then.
After reading the letter carefully, Ling Yi took the letter into Daochang Chen's study.
The news of Taoist priest's death was only known to Taozhang's close confidants and Ling Yi.
The Taoist priest’s crony is the Taoist priest’s granddaughter.
The little girl's parents left early, and when she was discovered by the Taoist priest, she was lying in her cold mother's arms, sucking milk hard, but she couldn't get it out.
Originally the Taoist priest didn't want to take care of it, and he couldn't, but when he walked around, the girl suddenly cried loudly.
This cry made Daochang Chen feel compassionate. He turned around and picked up the girl, joined the victims, and walked here.
Daochang Chen, who was lying on the recliner, was already cold, but with a smile on his face and a small gourd given to him by his granddaughter hanging in his hand, he looked like he was just asleep.
Looking at the Taoist priest at this time, Ling Yi felt that he was just an ordinary old man.
After traveling around for decades, he must have done a lot of bad things, and in the end he even cheated a big person.
Sitting next to Daochang Chen, Lingyi felt that the other party had deceived him in the end.
This letter was not given to anyone else, but was given directly to myself, hoping to use this letter to tie myself to this village forever.
The other party said nothing in the letter, but he said everything.
Whether to go or to stay, it all depends on a thought.
But after reading the other party’s letter, how could Ling Yi leave?
"Old man, you are dishonest."
With a sigh, Zero One stood up and said to his granddaughter: "Where are the things?"
The other party retreated silently, and after a moment took out a Taoist robe.
The Taoist robe was the most cherished thing by Daochang Chen during his lifetime, and it was also the thing that Daochang Chen used to eat with. The style of the Taoist robe is based on the upright style, or the upright Taoist robe, which was accidentally obtained by Taoist priest Chen, thus gaining the trust of the villagers.
It has flame-like lines on it, and those lines contain rare magic, making it shine even in the cold winter.
Putting on the Taoist robe, Lingyi said to his granddaughter: "Let's go, it's time to work."
Pointing to Taoist Chen on the recliner, the granddaughter asked in a low voice: "Grandpa, he..."
"Cremated, it was announced to the outside world that Taoist Chen had ascended during the day. From now on, I will be the Taoist priest in the village. . "
He stretched out his hand, and Daozhang Chen's letter appeared repeatedly in his hand, as if it were a magic spell.
But Zero One knows that this is just a technique. The key is very simple and can be mastered with a little practice.
But some things don’t weigh a thousand catties, but weigh four taels.
As long as others think it is magic, then it is magic.
As long as others think he is a monk, then he is a monk.
Seeing this, my granddaughter looked surprised and looked at Zero One a little more carefully.
But Zero One didn't care about this.
He just walked out of the study, announced the news to others, and said that he had received the true message and began to manage the village.
Throughout his life, Zero One never developed a sense of energy.
However, among the descendants of him and his granddaughter, two Qi Refining monks appeared. In an encounter with the Demon Sect, these two killed a Demon Sect monk who was on the seventh level of Qi Refining. Famous hero.
Ling Yi, who died at the end of his life, could not see this scene.
When he closed his eyes, he seemed to see Daochang Chen appearing in front of him, saying softly to him: "Lingyi, I'm here to pick you up."
"Well, I'll do it. Is it good? ”
"It couldn't be better."
"Am I a good village leader?"
"You are the best."
"...Thank you."< br>
When he opened his eyes again, he found that he was back in the guest room of Wanfa Sect, and three immortal masters were looking at him.
Seeing that he was awake, Miaofa Immortal Master stepped forward, pulled Ling Yi and asked with concern: "Disciple, how are you?" How long have you been in there?"
"Two An hour."
"...It's just two hours?"
After waking up from the dream, Ling Yi realized that he had been in the spell. Time is actually not as long as a lifetime.
A lot of content in the game was skipped, but he didn't feel it during the spell. In the end, it felt like a lifetime had passed.
Looking back, he realized that he had been a nobody throughout his life.
I have no magnificent experiences, no particularly outstanding heroic deeds, I just spent my life plainly.
But the impact of the game on him was even stronger than "Tian Xingjian".
"Tian Xingjian" is someone else's story, but "Glimmer" is his own choice. He seemed to have gone back in time, connected with the land of the past in his own way, and spent his life.
Strong emotions echoed in his heart. He didn't know what this emotion was called, but he knew that he had an inseparable relationship with this land.
Somewhere, he felt that this game could have different choices and different endings.
But he no longer wanted to continue.
Chen Daochang's story has ended. The experience has been engraved in his heart, and he does not want that memory to change in any way.
Covering his face, he was immersed in memory, and after a while he whispered softly: "What a miserable loss."
