After returning from the Haiphong Camp, Liu Bancheng's mood never recovered.
I was always haunted by the wails of the bereaved family members, as if I had been infected and had a serious illness, and I felt as if I had no strength.
It had been three days since Liu Bancheng came back, and the old man in the east wing didn't come to ask questions. He rang his bell on time every day, as if nothing had happened.
The stone next to Long Tuzhu finally couldn't help it, and Mr. Zhang spoke.
"My child, the reincarnation of the world has its destiny. You are worrying too much!"
"Why are you worrying too much! Old man, I have been in this country for almost eight years. I have met a lot of people and experienced a lot of things. I feel that the people in this country are very strange. It is such a big country. , there is no one who can talk to me about what is in my heart!"
"Child, don't you still have me? The reason why you are distressed is because, although you have met many people and experienced many things in this country, you have not integrated into this social group. You have always regarded yourself as Outsiders. On the contrary, you are particularly curious about all people and things. What you want to know and what you want to get is obviously different from your expectations. So you feel helpless, powerless, without rules and confidence in doing things. !”
Liu Bancheng lazily didn't want to reply to the old man's words. He thought it was okay to listen to his words once. At the time, he felt it made sense. But after listening more, he seemed to understand, but also seemed confused.
"Child, to put it simply, when a soul comes to this world, everyone who meets you is actually destined to you, and they don't meet you for no reason. If you don't believe it, look back and think about it. In a word, they are all here to teach you. Once you take a lesson, you will become wiser. After the lesson, they will disappear from your sight!"
Liu Bancheng sat up and thought for a while,
"Is that what happened? Then Yang Yong, who was killed just now, and Lin Zongren, Gao Hu, and that damn Rencheng, and, by the way, Luan Pingyi when he was in Yan Kingdom, all came to teach me. Could it be that ?”
"Yes, child, they are all here to teach you. Some want you to understand a truth, and some want you to increase your personal cultivation!"
"Do you understand the saying that sixty years is a period of time?"
"I don't understand, tell me!"
"Reincarnation occurs once every sixty years, and everything in the world is like this. Those who meet you will be reincarnated and reborn in the world sixty years later, or the next sixty years later. There are people who practice cultivation in this world. For the better, if you reincarnate again, it will be even better. Usually, such people will be reincarnated as adults, and they will be at a higher level. They were originally ordinary people, but they may live a wealthy life. On the contrary, cultivators The bad thing is that people who do a lot of evil may turn into animals, cats, dogs, cows and horses the next time they are reincarnated."
Liu Bancheng became interested in Mr. Zhang's words and sat up.
"Old man, since you said that, I have a request!"
"Tell me!"
"Since I can know the result of reincarnation in the next life and predict the world in the next life, why not let me go and take a look. Can these people I meet now, who have not been reincarnated in the world I live in, satisfy my request? "
When the old man heard this, he laughed loudly, "Thank you for still having such an idea, but I can satisfy your request! Because your special functions have been fully restored, you know?"
Liu Bancheng also smiled and said, "Yes, Mei Hua has told me about the functional recovery a long time ago. He also said that your old man also told her that I liked her. Isn't this nonsense? It's not clear that it's trying to harm me. Reputation? I have a family and a wife, we can’t do anything that would harm my wife!”
As Mr. Zhang listened, he laughed more heartily and loudly.
"You, stop telling lies with your eyes open. It's okay to tell lies to others or make up lies. In front of me, you just put it away. Don't I know about your little thoughts? What are you thinking in your heart? Privately I know what you did here better than you!"
Liu Bancheng's face turned red and white at the old man's words.
Mr. Zhang continued, "However, now that you are talking about plum blossoms, let's start with plum blossoms and see how she meets you in the next life. But I have to remind you, if you go back in time this time, you will only As a bystander, you can see your own life, but you can't interfere with your life at that time. Do you understand?"
Of course Liu Bancheng was happy when he heard this, "Old man, that's great. I will do as you say. I've really had enough of this place. Let me go back and take a look! Thank God!"
"Okay, don't forget, one day when you go back is equivalent to ten years here. You have to go back as soon as possible. You must always know that here, you still have unfinished tasks related to your life and death. !”
"I understand, old man. To be honest, I don't want to come back this time. Living here and in this country is really tiring. It's not physically tiring, but mainly mentally tiring!"
"That won't work. Let me tell you, you can't have this idea at all. You will be just a soul when you go back. You can't land, you can't speak, and you can't live where you want to go. As long as you come back, you'll be done. You can complete the task I gave you and go back to live the comfortable life of your wife and children on the bed that you have always longed for!"
"Okay, okay, okay, old man, you don't need to be nagging. To put it bluntly, you just want me to go and come back quickly. Isn't that the end of it!"
The master smiled and said, "To put it lightly, you can't come back without me even if you want to!"
"Yes, yes, master, please teach me how to come and go freely!"
"Come, take me, this Phoenix Stone, with you. As long as you recite "Shangji Thyme" silently in your heart three times, I will appear in front of you! I can take you back and forth!"
After the old man finished speaking, Liu Bancheng started to faint.
His eyes were wide open, and there was only the sound of howling wind in his ears.
...
It was the summer of 1990 AD, and Liu Bancheng saw himself and a man herding horses.
Liu Bancheng recognized that person at once. He was Liu Jianguang, the smooth-butted doll he had grown up with when he was a child.
But now I see how this Liu Jianguang looks so much like Jinsuo. He is very tall, has big eyes, and his talking movements are also very similar.
Liu Bancheng saw his two horses, one tall and one short, one black and one red, mother and son.
Jianguang's horse is a bay-red horse. His horse is exceptionally good-looking. Its mane is neatly cut and its front legs are particularly wide. It is in its prime.
Liu Bancheng also saw his hometown of Liujiatun, which is just north of Caodianzi on a dirt road that crosses the east-west national highway. More than two miles further north, he also saw the old house of the first family in the village, which looked very friendly.
Looking south from Caodianzi, we can see the ancestors of our neighbors buried in grassy hills of various sizes.
There are also their own great-grandfather, great-grandmother, grandpa, grandma, second grandfather, second mistress, uncle and grandma.
The horses of both families were unbridled and swung their tails freely to pile grass.
The two of them lay down with sacks under them, facing the sun.
Under the white clouds in the distance, there are only a few scattered sheep, and the endless flocks can be seen as far as the eye can see.
At this time, Jianguang, who looks the same as Jinsuo, can be heard saying, "Have you made up your mind? Let's become soldiers. If we don't become soldiers, we have no way out?"
