The trees in the mountains form tribes, and the lonely trees are like hermits. The world is noisy on the treetops, and the tree roots are immersed in the immensity. The sacred laws of nature turn the sunlight into light-colored growth rings, leaving the years as lush branches and leaves, full of scars. The trees seem to have eternal power, and the silence is full of peace and tranquility. The evening wind rustles among the trees, and the wanderer occasionally listens wisely, and everything becomes incomparable joy.
Yunzhongshan a few years ago.
In the dark night, the chirping of birds gradually subsided and the chirping of cicadas continued. The cold air became more and more overwhelming under the cold moonlight. The crystal dew slowly fell as the night penetrated. The smell of moist earth filled the mountains and fields, and the smell of wetness filled the air.
Ye Yun and Mu Siyao searched for the house in the cloud until dusk, but to no avail. As the day went westward, their strength was exhausted and they rested against a big tree.
The two of them felt in a dilemma and discussed walking forward for a while, but when that didn't work, they had to go back.
As the two continued to walk, they continued to take advantage of the afterglow of the setting sun.
"Ah, snake!" Mu Siyao shouted.
A thick snake suddenly swam out of the grass a few steps away.
Mu Siyao was so frightened that he pressed his slender body close to Ye Yun, holding Ye Yun's arm with one hand and holding Ye Yun's waist with the other, his whole body trembling slightly.
Ye Yun was also startled, then calmed down, pressed Mu Siyao's back with one hand, and said softly: "Let's not move. Snakes have poor eyesight and are blind to stationary things."
Mu Siyao closed his eyes and rested his head on Ye Yun's upper arm.
Ye Yun stared at the rugged mountain road not far away. A thick snake was followed by two equally thick snakes, two followed by four thin snakes. Several snakes crossed the mountain road and disappeared into the jungle.
"It's okay, everyone is gone." Ye Yun said.
Mu Siyao squinted his eyes and looked at the mountain road ahead, but there was nothing.
She still hugged Ye Yun tightly, and when she realized what she was doing, she quickly stepped aside, blushing, and said, "Sorry... stop, I'm afraid of snakes."
Ye Yun saw her shy and cute expression, "It's okay, aren't all people afraid of snakes?"
"Let's not leave. It's getting dark. We seem to have seen a cave on the road we walked just now. Let's go there to rest for the night and think of a solution tomorrow." Mu Siyao said.
The setting sun shines on the mountainside, and a beautiful blush blooms on the edge of the cliff. Young buds grow under the shade of trees. Enticing bees and butterflies rest behind the flower branches. The beauty of the afterglow outside the cave slowly penetrates into the falling night.
Ye Yun and Mu Siyao came to a clean cave.
The entrance of the cave is narrow, and the inside is deeper. There are several large and smooth stones high and low on the edge of the cliff inside. The cave is very quiet, and most of the natural sounds in the forest are isolated outside the cave. It is only cold in the cave. , it is also drier than outside.
The two of them encountered this dilemma when they first met. They sat down on a stone surface without saying a word.
"Fortunately, there is a cave. If I spend the night in the forest, I really don't know what to do." Mu Siyao said as he took out a sleeping bag from his backpack, spread it on the stone surface, and sat on it with his legs crossed.
The night was getting dark, and the moonlight could not penetrate the cave. Ye Yun turned on the flashlight, and the two of them didn't know what to talk about. There was no signal on their mobile phones, so they just sat there blankly.
Ye Yun took out two pieces of clothes from his bag and spread them on the stone surface like Mu Siyao did.
"Get some rest and get up early tomorrow morning." Ye Yun said as he stood up and walked out of the cave. Seeing this, Mu Siyao hurriedly shouted: "Where are you going?"
"I..." Ye Yun stuck out his tongue. Mu Siyao seemed to understand. He said oh twice, embarrassed himself again, and said softly: "Go quickly, be careful."
Ye Yun went out for a convenience and came back soon. When Mu Siyuan saw Ye Yun coming back, he tiptoed out of the cave. This time the two came and went, Ye Yun felt strange and a little embarrassed.
When Mu Siyao came back, both of them felt embarrassed and said no more. Mu Siyao got into his sleeping bag and gradually fell asleep.
Ye Yun was strong and strong. Although he felt lonely and cold in the night, he had no other choice but to take a piece of clothing to cover his stomach and wait until the next day to make plans.
The moon is deep and dewy, moistening the clothes.
Mu Siyao, who was already asleep, felt colder and colder. When she suddenly woke up, she was shivering from the cold and unable to hold on, shouting: "Ye Yun, I..."
Ye Yun woke up and heard Mu Siyao calling him, asking, "What's wrong with you?"
"I...well..." Mu Siyao's teeth chattered as he spoke.
Ye Yun yelled and asked quickly: "Are you very cold?"
Ye Yun turned on the flashlight and shined a light on Mu Siyao's small cherry mouth and big honey-apricot eyes, and saw her curled up in her sleeping bag.
"You..." Although Mu Siyao thought that someone could hold him, he had the nerve to speak and just said: "You also come to my rock and come closer to me."
The air-conditioning around Ye Yun also spread over him layer by layer. He looked at the time and saw that it was only two in the morning. But after all, the other party was of the opposite sex. Even if he leaned next to her, it would be rude. Instead, he thought about what if the other party was frozen. , I can't get rid of it myself. Ye Yun weighed it up and lay down next to Mu Siyao.
Ye Yun and Mu Siyao were lying together on a big rock mountain, and Mu Siyao felt a little comfort in his heart.
Suddenly, there was a rustling sound outside the cave. Mu Siyao was startled and threw himself into Ye Yun's arms, muttering: "Hold me, hold me."
Ye Yun was frightened by Mu Siyao's move and hugged Mu Siyao. He didn't know whether Mu Siyao was frightened or because it was cold in the night.
Mu Siyao said, "Can you get into the sleeping bag too?"
Ye Yun thought that Mu Siyao might have been frightened when he encountered a snake in the evening, and comforted him: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Mu Siyao stretched out his hand from his sleeping bag, touched Ye Yun's cold arm, and then whispered: "I heard about you in school, and I believe you are a gentleman. It's just the two of us here. Don't tell anyone else in the future. That’s it, and you’re so cold.”
Ye Yun's little deer bumped into each other and was in a dilemma.
"You won't have the heart to freeze me to death." As soon as Mu Siyao said this, Ye Yun only treated the wounded and rescued the dying, and was pulled into the sleeping bag by Mu Siyao. Mu Siyao gently hugged Ye Yun, and Ye Yun also I had to hold her.
The two of them were young and in their early teens, they had never been so close to the opposite sex.
Ye Yun was still an ignorant young man at that time. In such a situation, his heart almost jumped into his throat, and his head became hot and he said: "If we get out of here alive, I will definitely marry you when we grow up!"
"Ah? I, I didn't agree." Mu Siyao blushed, "Besides, hesitating is not necessarily a lie, and being firm is not necessarily the truth."
"It's the truth!"
Mu Siyao hummed and hugged Ye Yun tightly.
Ye Yun felt that his body had become warm and even a little hot, and he changed the topic and said: "Go to sleep. I will tell you a story tomorrow, The Story of Seeking Immortals and Conquering Demons, a story about a Taoist boy."
Mu Siyao didn't listen to Ye Yun's words, and just hummed again.
The two of them stopped talking, but one was shy and the other was ashamed. It was just the cold silence of the night and the uneasiness of the barren mountains that forced the two to embrace each other in a small space to survive the unexpected and cold moment.
Ye Yun and Mu Siyao fell asleep in the same sleeping bag.
In the silence of the night, the two felt no sense of security except for each other.
Time returns to the present.
Yunzhong Temple, Ge Laodian.
"For an individual, the happiest things, such as entertainment, delicious food, watching scenery, and sleeping, serve the individual's survival in the short term, but in the long term, they serve the tiny microorganisms or genes protected in the body. Or information serves, eternal life already exists, genes are immortal, and information is immortal. In the process of reproduction from generation to generation, we are always passing on something one after another. We are the protective shell and service provider of immortal genes. Buddha seems to have understood this truth long ago. Eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind are empty, color, sound, fragrance, touch and law are empty. There is only a moment in the body, but there is eternity in the moment. This is the meaning." Yuan Shi rhymed.
"Well, death is not life, it is just walking out of time." Professor Li Yuan said, "Even if you never come back, what about this life? Why is the Qingming Cold Food sacrificed?"
Ye Xiaoling quickly recorded the conversation between the two.
Fang Wei did not accept the profound conversation between the two, and instead said: "It's still that kind of animal, the salamander. Even if its limbs, eyes, or even heart and other organs are removed, it only takes a few months to grow brand new limbs." , eyes, and heart, were called immortal kings. Later research discovered that the principle of their regenerative organs is that they have regenerative stem cells that can grow into any cells needed when injured."
Dr. Wang Li nodded and hummed: "All human inventions are discoveries, everything already exists." He continued: "I think the first step of the longevity capsule should be developed based on regenerative stem cells. And on this basis Solve problems, avoid risks and consequences, and reduce responsibilities and burdens.”
Several people were discussing.
Yuan Shiyun's assistant, the nun, entered the room and said, "Zhao Chen is here."
Fang Wei thought in his mind: Zhao Chen? The welfare lottery winner, body and art photographer and model lover, professional League of Legends gamer; he is also an important technical staff member of the Star Club!
Yuan Shiyun said: "Let him come in."
A man walked into the house. He laughed and said: "Three major misconceptions in life. I can fight back. I can win the lottery next time. She likes me."
Everyone was puzzled.
"The fourth major delusion is: I will not die."
Wang Lizao said: "Mr. Zhao, I have already said what I should have said last time. I will not care about cooperation for the time being. Your Majesty will ask you to come. Is there anything else you want to say?"
"Last time? I wasn't there. Besides, if you don't dare to take action, what's the point? Just intimidating each other doesn't work. It seems we shouldn't follow the same path as the Ye family did twenty years ago."
Ye Xiaoling recorded it quickly, suddenly thinking of something, he couldn't help but feel frightened and frowned.
"I'm not here to deliver a message, I'm just here to show you something." Zhao Chen continued.
"What?" Li Yuan asked.
Zhao Chen didn't say anything.
Everyone saw him pressing a switch on his neck, gently lifting his head, and then holding his head in his hands. The mouth on the head continued: "This is it."
Several people present were terrified and turned pale with shock.
