The figures of three to four thousand people gradually materialized, and everyone slowly opened their eyes. In front of them was a vast desert, which was obviously the Sahara Desert in Africa.
Long Yuyan, Su Ling and others hadn't realized what was going on. They remembered that they were still applying facial masks. Suddenly, a vast desert appeared in front of them. Lu Changsheng cursed secretly, "What the hell, I'm about to When you play the role of gods and fight, you brought this huge desert to me, who is so fucking wicked!"
Although Su Ling was dissatisfied, she quickly adjusted her mentality. After scanning around, she found that they were not ordinary people, but members of the Temple of War. She quickly understood that Tan Ling had said before that they would be sent to Earth. Trial, I didn’t expect it to be here.
At the same time, their mecha terminal communication system received a message from iFlytek, "Ding dong..." A sweet voice suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
"Hi! Hello everyone, I am iFlytek, and I am also the instructor responsible for the assessment this time. Your mission is to establish a base on the earth. There is no time limit. You will not have support. Everything depends on you. Come on! Bye...! "Before anyone could ask questions, the blue light curtain disappeared.
Su Ling's mecha arm shot out a ray of light, slowly forming a shrinking globe. He found the location where he and others were, and started the mecha's audio call. There was a line of small words above the globe, and he said, "Everyone, I am Su Ling from the Department of Evolution Science and Technology. Now, We are located in the Sahara Desert in northern Africa. The climate conditions here are extremely harsh. It is one of the most unsuitable places on earth for biological growth. Especially after the deterioration of the earth's environment, many mutated organisms have appeared here. Everyone should be careful. I think we are still united. Get up, anyone who is willing to form a team with me can come over, Su Ling opened his position, and a dozen people came immediately."
Suling continued, "The Sahara Desert starts from the Atlantic coast in the west, is bounded by the Atlas Mountains and the Mediterranean Sea in the north, reaches the Red Sea in the east, and reaches Sudan and the Niger River Valley in the south. The east is the most desolate area, the central plateau and mountains, and the Sahara The southern border of the desert is a semi-arid savanna, but now it is basically the same, the southeast, northwest and northwest are almost the same environment, but we have to choose high mountains to build our base."
Long Yuyan turned on her mecha, and could not see her expression clearly. She just said in an unquestionable tone, "Sister Su Ling, we all listen to you. Whatever you say, we will do it."
Others also echoed, "We all obey your arrangements."
"Okay, then let's continue to analyze where we are going. To the south is Southern Africa, which has abundant rain and lush plants. You must not go here. People have lived here before, and there are parasites there, as well as ant armies and hives. , mosquitoes, and other social mutated organisms.”
"This is not suitable for establishing a stronghold. We should go to Asia. Although it is a paradise for mutant monsters, the base established there is stable."
A total of 1,500 people joined this temporarily formed team. The remaining people chose to form teams of three or two, and some were alone. For example, Xuanyang Bing was a lone ranger. They believed that with many people, the target was too big and they would be easily defeated. When it comes to attacking, everyone has their own ideas.
Tan Ling frowned, looked at New Year's Eve, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and said calmly, "Do you see any tricks?"
New Year's Eve did not raise his head, but concentrated on studying the earth's core, and casually replied, "No."
Tan Ling felt that he would never know if he kept searching like this, so he raised his hand and pointed his fingers at the golden man. The golden man understood and floated over, and the transparent spirit Tan Ling also floated over. Tan Ling made a fist with his hand, and the transparent Tan Ling melted away.
When the golden man saw this scene, his legs and feet were shaking a little, thinking that Tan Ling was going to take action against him. The closer the golden man got to Tan Ling, the more intimate he felt.
Tan Ling glanced at the golden man and said with a smile, "Don't be nervous, I won't kill you. As long as you tell me how to enter the core of the earth, maybe I will let you go when I am happy." Tan Ling had asked before. I asked the golden man once, but I thought he didn't want to tell me, so I asked tentatively again, hoping to get some useful clues from the golden man.
The golden man was helpless and said after a moment, "You have asked me once, but I really don't know."
Tan Ling didn't feel embarrassed and walked a few steps. When Tan Ling was only one step away from the golden man, Tan Ling felt that there seemed to be movement in the different dimension space. Tan Ling thought it was the movement from the creatures inside or the warships in the heavens. , but not quite like it.
Tan Ling was deep in thought. The golden man looked strange and did not dare to look up at Tan Ling. I wonder how I could feel like this, the wisps of memories are like digging embankments to release floodwaters.
"I don't want to anymore, just take the golden man to another dimension. At worst, if he gets restless then I'll kill him." Tan Ling glanced at the golden man again and smiled.
This smile immediately made the golden man think that his end was coming, and he took a few steps back, trying to stay away from this dangerous person. But I want to be closer to him.
Tan Ling coughed dryly, raised his palm, and a spiral nebula appeared in front of the golden man's eyes. Before he could react, the golden man and Tan Ling disappeared together.
Shirley Blau was puzzled, twisting her head and looking confused, why did she disappear all of a sudden? Shirley Blau did not scream loudly, but just stood blankly where Tan Ling disappeared.
Tan Ling and the golden man appeared in a different dimension. The golden man felt that the breath was a bit familiar, and he had a strange look on his face. It was him, why was he here? He raised his hand as if touching something, and his golden eyes were dazzled with tears. His eyes filled with tears, as if he remembered something, and as if he was a brother reunited after a long separation.
Tan Ling was silent and had no intention of disturbing the golden man. He stood quietly.
Time passed bit by bit, and the golden man finally spoke, "It's hard to say goodbye when we meet. The east wind is powerless and the flowers are withered. After so many years, we finally meet again."
Tan Ling wondered what was going on. Tan Ling asked tentatively, "Brother, don't cry yet. What's going on?"
The golden man did not look back and said with a wry smile, "He refuses to see me. Could it be that he regrets my leaving, but I don't know how I left or how I came here."
Tan Ling asked in a low voice, "Who? Who ignored you."
The golden man raised his hand to wipe away his tears and said calmly, "He is the Hongmeng Great Thousand Worlds."
"What? The different dimensional space is the Hongmeng universe? What's going on? Tan Ling is a bit confused, there is too much information."
"If Tao Sheng had seen us as we first saw him, why would the autumn wind draw a fan with sadness? He was waiting for things to change but he reincarnated in the years, but he said that old people's hearts are easy to change. Now he knows the feeling of sorrow, the remaining Tao remains, and all things are at rest. He wants to say that he is still at rest, but he says that the cold weather is good. Autumn." The golden man said to himself, and at some point, he stepped into darkness and had light above his head.
The golden man looked up at the gray sky, his eyes full of sadness. He slowly closed his eyes and said calmly, "The way of heaven is reincarnation, who will be spared by heaven."
From the beginning to the end, Tan Ling did not understand what was going on, and had no choice but to let the golden man step into the darkness and leave the light above his head. Tan Ling had no urge to stop it, and there was no murderous intention in his heart. He originally planned to kill the golden man if he became restless.
The golden man keeps his eyes closed all the time, the past calendar is vivid in his mind, the colorful clouds are cooking wine and discussing Taoism, poetry, calligraphy, music, chess, chess and flute are played, Xinyue raises his hand to share the opportunity, a glass of wine, a game of chess, two people.
“In the thatched cottage nestled between mountains and water, it’s peaceful to walk and sit peacefully.
A plowing cow can half an acre of field. The harvest depends on the sky, and the shortage depends on the sky.
After the rain and the weather clears, we can sail in a small boat, with fish and wine on one side.
I met a poet on the road and asked him about the poem, whether it was good or bad.
Clothes are warmer than silk and cotton. They can be worn both new and old.
Three full meals with simple tea and light food are delicious in the morning and sweet in the evening.
Returning home at night in front of the talking lamp of a close friend, we talk about today and the past.
Sleeping until three o'clock in the morning is not a god, but it is better than a god. "
After the golden man finally sheds his last tear, the memories of the countryside are also gone. It can be regarded as an account of the past and a hope for the future. It has a beginning and an end. He sheds his emotions to his heart's content and finishes his tears, turning into a stream of light and blending into the gray. Sky.
At the same time, a deep and clear old man's voice came from Tan Ling's mind, like a loud sound falling from the sky. It was soothing to the ears and clear to the heart. Tan Ling closed his eyes slightly and seriously comprehended this mysterious sound. Word.
"The human way is vague, the immortal way is vast. The ghost way is happy, the holy way is panic, and the devil way is leisurely."
"The great road is the soul, the small road is the soul, the great law is the meridian, the small law is the network, all things are machines, and there are thousands of evolutions. Nature is the Tao, Tao, nature. Nature is the Tao. The sun and the moon are self-luminous without being burned, The stars have their own order without being lined up, the animals have their own birth without being made by anyone, the wind has its own motion without a fan, the water has its own flow without one to push it, the grass and trees have their own birth without a seed, they have their own breath without breathing, they have their own heartbeat without a heartbeat, and so on and so on. This is the case. It is the root of change. It is neither born nor destroyed, formless and imageless, without beginning or end. It is all-encompassing. Its bigness has no outside, its smallness has no inside. It changes over time and remains unchanged forever. It is all-encompassing. Beginning without a name."
"Everything in the world is born, immortals and Buddhas are born, saints and sages are born. They are born from the "Tao", yin embraces yang, birth and transformation are endless and wonderful. This is the origin of everything and the ultimate truth."
"The way of heaven is like meeting the floating clouds. If you look into the abyss, you can still fathom the abyss. But if you meet the floating clouds, you will not know how far it will go."
The sun, moon, and stars naturally appear in the void, and "the great road is formless": "big" means nothingness, "dao" means perfection, "wu" means infinity, and "shape" means traces. Husband, "Dao Dao", this Hongmeng's undiagnosed vitality, what is the shape and quality of it?
"Fertility Heaven and Earth": "Sheng" means biochemistry, "Yu" means nourishment, "Heaven" means Yang Qi, and "Earth" means Yin Qi.
"The Tao is ruthless": "Tao" is innate, silent and odorless; "emotion" is acquired, capable of doing something. Use ruthlessness to transform great love. ruthlessness is the way of inaction.
"Run the sun and the moon": "Yun" means rotation, "Xing" means circulation, "Sun" means the Golden Crow, and "Moon" means the Jade Rabbit. If the day belongs to Li hexagram, there will be the coming and going of cold and heat. If the moon belongs to the Kan hexagram, there will be gains and losses. The holy days and the holy months among men shine in the golden court.
"The great road has no name": "name" is the name. The innate Tao is invisible and has no image. What is its name? It is called Tao.
"Change and support all things": "Chan" means longevity, "Yang" means nourishment, and "All Things" refers to all things.
The "scattering" of Taishang is the vitality of chaos, and the "gathering" of Taishang is the infinite path. Some talk about nothingness, some talk about nature, some others talk about namelessness, they are all the same." "Tao" is the beginning of heaven and earth, the mother of all things. It is the foundation of all things in the universe.
Tan Ling was trapped in this vague and unnecessary cycle. His face was sometimes painful, and sometimes he was peaceful. He felt that his Dantian was burning and his energy was radiant.
At the beginning of the mind, a heavenly voice struck, breaking this illusory world, "Tan Ling, you just want to live, find Wang Feng and Chu Han, and let you humans have a place in this universe. Your way is to survive, Don't get hung up on illusory things. Live in the present. Be realistic. If it's true as he said, why would the Gods be destroyed? Your way is to live. You are just an insignificant speck of dust in the universe. You can't take care of your own affairs, so take care of others. No matter what Tao or what Buddha, you are just you. If you don’t be a slave of Tao, you won’t do long-term work of burning incense for Buddha.”
"People are people. They are not afraid of heaven or earth. They make their own decisions on their own affairs. Buddhas compete for a stick of incense and people compete for a breath. You Tan Ling is you Tan Ling."
Tan Ling's mind was in chaos, and then another voice sounded. He was old and gentle, and his voice was gentle and kind. "Tan Ling, I don't believe in Taoism or Buddhism. Science and technology will rejuvenate the country. There will be no distinction between education and distinction. The world will be unified. There will be no slaves and no hierarchy. Everyone can study, everyone can be an official, everyone can work hard for survival, illuminate the universe, and spread China’s spiritual culture of harmonious coexistence.”
Before Tan Ling could think about it, another voice came out and said calmly, "Don't care about life and death. If you don't accept it, do it. It doesn't matter if it's a Buddha, an immortal, a human, a ghost, a demon, a spirit, a Tao, a monster, or something." Those who mess with your true nature will be slaughtered and suppressed. What is in front of you, power, fame, money, and even being the master of the universe is wrong."
One voice after another spoke eloquently, with awe-inspiring righteousness and truth.
These voices turned into Tan Ling's appearance, and Tan Ling was at a loss. Tan Ling muttered, "Are these all me? It's hard to believe that they are all what I think."
The golden characters on the mecha terminal jumped happily, emitting golden light. Golden light surrounded Tan Ling's mind. Tan Ling gradually regained some clarity and said calmly, "I, Tan Ling, are just an orphan. I don't know my mother or my father. My only relative is the old principal of the kindergarten. But he is already At the end of a hundred years, all I, Tan Ling, have to do is for my children to have a mother and a father, for the elderly to have a daughter and a son, for a wife and children, for a cow, for half an acre of land, and for a house. To raise my husband and raise my children, from generation to generation. Accept."
This is the way of me, Tan Ling, and in an instant those loud sounds receded like the tide.
Tan Ling opened his eyes and saw that the gray sky in another dimension was like an exceptional eggshell, revealing the blue sky and white clouds. The fallen fragments formed thousands of stars and the earth. There are mountains and rivers, and Tan Ling has witnessed the power of creation with his own eyes. Time has changed, things have changed, and people have changed. The mountains are long and the water is wide, and he can see it all.
Hearing someone calling him in a daze, Tan Ling paused, rubbed his eyes, and then opened his eyes. Everything was still the same as before, except for a Taoist boy who walked up from the sky and said to Tan Ling, " Whatever is in your heart is what your heart desires, and your way is to survive."
Tan Ling asked, "Who are you?"
Tao Tong smiled innocently and said, "I am heaven and I am also earth. Maybe that's what you are thinking, just pretend that I don't exist!"
Tan Ling had no choice but to say bitterly, "Now that I have seen it, what does it mean to not exist? Being is to be, and being is to be. What does it mean to act like you don't exist?"
The Taoist laughed and said, "In the past, some people called me Tianhuang, others called me Huanggu, and later I was called Hongmeng. Everything was your choice. Which one do you think I should tell you?"
Tan Ling was amazed and asked in confusion, "You don't know what your name is?"
"I don't know." Daotong simply replied
Tan Ling was speechless again. It took him a while to react, and he asked in surprise, "You...you just said that your name is Hongmeng, is that the world?" Tan Ling became incoherent and a little at a loss.
There was another call from outside. Tan Ling touched his head in embarrassment. My friend was looking for me.
"Go! Don't mention me to anyone. I'll explain to you when I have time. It will take some time for me to wake up, so I can't stay too long." After the Taoist boy finished speaking, he turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the gray sky.
