Chapter 86 Promotion
Li Daming said to me, Lin Cong, can you lend me the psychic bracelet again?
I was surprised and asked, "What's wrong with you? What do you want to do?"
Li Daming looked around and saw that no one was paying attention. He whispered, "Lin Cong, when I was doing the Joy Mandala just now, I seemed to have reached the edge of the universe."
I took a deep breath, pulled him to the corner and asked what was going on.
Li Daming twisted his mouth and said, "I'm only telling you one thing. When I first started doing it, I had a feeling. I felt like I was flying all of a sudden, and I became one with the universe. I don't know if something went wrong, but I flew too far all of a sudden, all the way to the end of the universe, and I wanted to try to see if I could break this wall..."
When I heard him say this, my heart was in turmoil.
Because I know what happened to Li Daming. In my perception, Li Daming turned into countless mirror images, but in his own perception, he reached the end of the universe.
Did I see it wrong, or did he lie? Or, a more appropriate explanation is that we are both right, and the countless mirrors of Li Daming are actually an external manifestation of his awareness of the boundaries of the universe.
He couldn't see himself, didn't know he had turned into a mirror. In other words, the him I saw at that time was completely different from who he thought he was.
"And then?" I asked.
Li Daming asked: "Do you believe in parallel worlds?"
Before I could answer, he said, "I broke the hole and saw different things. I saw countless versions of myself."
My throat gurgled and the hair on the back of my neck stood up. "You, you saw yourself?"
"Yes, the situation at that time is indescribable." Li Daming said: "My eyes can no longer describe the scene I saw at that time. Lin Cong, do you still remember the first time you lent me the spiritual bracelet?"
"I remember. What's wrong?"
Li Daming said: "At that time, there was a voice in my heart, telling me a lot of things that happened when I lost my memory. That was not a voice, but my subconscious mind. So, at that time, there was a deduction that there might be an objective recorder in my consciousness, no matter what state I was in, it was faithfully recording everything that happened to me. So, just now at the end of meditation, I suddenly had an incredible idea."
I looked at him.
"This recorder not only records my life, it may have recorded my past lives for many generations, and even recorded me in other parallel universes in the universe." Li Daming said excitedly.
I was stunned and couldn't refute.
"I reached the end of the world, broke through the wall, and saw countless versions of myself." Li Daming rubbed his hands, "My idea is right. As long as I find a way to read this recorder, I can read everything about myself!"
I really had nothing to say. I always felt that this was too weird. After a long while, I said, "Damian, what's the point of doing this?"
"If you could know your past and present lives, and know yourself in other parallel worlds, wouldn't you want to know?" Li Daming asked back.
"This..." I was speechless.
Li Daming said: "There is also a saying that goes, 'I am all living beings, and all living beings are me. When I observe myself, I am observing all living beings. As long as I understand myself and interpret all the data about myself, it actually includes the entire history of human development."
I nodded: "Damin, your realm is too high."
"Just tell me whether you want to lend it to me or not?" Li Daming looked at me.
"Lend it to you."
Li Daming scratched his head: "Oh, I thought you could refuse."
I said, "I suddenly want to see what happens after you find the recorder and extract the information."
"Haha." He laughed loudly: "It 's a deal."
After this class, the students in the purple class were very excited and kept discussing. When we came out of the classroom, we saw the students in the yellow and red classes chatting in the corridor, laughing and having a lively time.
Class Purple naturally felt inferior to these two classes. We didn’t even dare to breathe and walked along the wall, trying to bypass them.
As we were walking, a member of the Red Class suddenly stopped in front of Li Daming and me and said, "Hey, aren't these you two brothers?"
The purple class all stopped and everyone quieted down and looked at us.
The man was a young, handsome guy, a bit like a Korean Oppa. " You two are great brothers. During the last meeting, that high-pitched voice was yours, wasn't it?" He pointed at Li Daming.
Li Daming smiled and stretched out his hand: "Hello, hello, nice to meet you. My name is Li Daming."
The young man didn't shake hands back, but instead put his hands behind his back and laughed: "There is still a weirdo like you in the purple class."
Several people nearby laughed: "It turns out that the purple class is full of rubbish."
I was a little angry, but I looked at Li Daming. Li Daming was not angry at all, but smiled.
Li Daming looked at squad leader Wang. I understood what Li Daming meant. The people from the red squad insulted the purple squad. It is at this time that the squad leader should step forward and take responsibility.
Squad leader Wang had been hiding behind the crowd and didn't want to come out. Li Daming looked at him and made him feel embarrassed. He reluctantly pushed aside the people around him and walked up to the handsome boy: "Isn't this Xiao Kong?"
"Who are you calling Xiao Kong? Am I that familiar with you?" The young man glared.
Li Daming tried to smooth things over: "Forget it, forget it. We are all studying together. Just talk it out if you have anything to say."
The young man nodded and said, "I'm telling you, kid, you should know what kind of person you are. Don't act like a fool. It won't work! When you see our seniors in the future, you should take the initiative to greet them. Do you understand? Don't show off."
Li Daming clasped his hands together, bowed and nodded: "Yes, yes, it's my fault."
"Go away." The young man cursed , "Behave yourself from now on."
We in the purple class continued to move forward. When we walked out, Aba got angry: "Brother Li, what kind of person is that Kong?"
Li Daming said, "He has only this much potential. In my eyes, he is just like a piece of grass. Why should I bother with him? If you get angry at such a person, you will be so angry that you will die in the future."
Aba smiled and said, "Yes, that's right. What we are learning here is to remain calm in the face of adversity."
"So, instead of being angry at such a person, we should thank him." Li Daming said, "What a good test stone. It can help us see the level of our cultivation."
Everyone in the Purple Class was looking at Li Daming. They could tell that what he said was not just pretense but his true feelings.
Although squad leader Wang was a little timid, he was still a genuine person. He sighed and said, "Damin, I am not as good as you in some areas. I still need to learn."
"Learn from each other," said Li Daming.
We returned to the dormitory and everyone gathered together to chat. Li Daming was the center of attention, talking and laughing and giving advice.
I found that compared to when we first met, Li Daming seemed to have changed, but also seemed to have not changed. It was a very interesting phenomenon.
Everyone left very late in the evening. Aba was still talking, and he pulled Li Daming to continue talking. Li Daming yawned continuously, so I told him to go to bed early. I pointed at the spiritual bracelet to Li Daming, and then made a regretful gesture.
Li Daming understood immediately and nodded, which meant there was no rush.
We have all become people who go with the flow. It doesn’t matter if what we want doesn’t come; it doesn’t matter if what we like leaves. Our state of mind is becoming more and more peaceful.
I lay in bed for a long time without falling asleep. I rested my hands on my head, recalling the changes that have taken place in the past week since I came here, from the embarrassment of selling goods in the subway to the peace of mind I have now. I have also been changing during this period of time.
The next day, after morning exercises, Yang Wei asked all the lecturers of the three classes to gather together. He issued a notice in public, saying that Mr. Huang Teng had called last night and wanted to promote two people to the Huang class.
When these words came out, students in all classes were shocked and talked about it.
I saw the former squad leader Xu was eager to try, thinking that she was chosen. She was so excited that she couldn't describe it. I really don't know where this woman got such great confidence from.
Yang Wei kept the secret for a long time, and finally announced the answer. The two students who were promoted to the Huang class were Li Daming and Lin Cong.
As soon as these words were spoken, it was like water dropped into a frying pan, the whole thing started boiling, and everyone turned around to look at us.
Li Daming and I were at the end of the team. Facing the gazes of the crowd, I would have blushed and lowered my head in the past, but now I was more calm and looked back at them.
Li Daming even made an exaggerated and funny shrug, thinking it was expected and pretending to be a good example.
Yang Wei said: "Please come up to the stage and give your speech."
Li Daming and I were not afraid of the stage either. We came to the stage and expressed our gratitude. The young man named Kong from the red class and squad leader Xu were below, looking at us eagerly, their eyes were full of poison, and they wanted to kill us ten thousand times.
The young handsome guy just taught us a lesson yesterday, but we didn’t expect that today we would make a big leap forward and become higher in status than him.
Squad Leader Xu suddenly shouted from below: "Why? It's not fair!"
This sentence ignited the whole place. Most of the people in the red class shouted that it was unfair, and some seniors in the yellow class also disliked us. They had suffered so much to be promoted to this class, while Li Daming and I, two troublemakers, had rocket-like leaps in just one week. No one would be happy.
