Tianwei Chapter 320: A Better Plan (7)
The real world? Wei Qingcang and Gamu were a little surprised by this sentence. They couldn't fully understand the true meaning of this sentence, because the corpses of the Heavenly Corpse Vein existed between heaven and earth, and could only live between heaven and earth.
The frog at the bottom of the well can only see a sky that big, and the ground it can step on is always that small.
Apart from the two of them, the old Taoist had more thoughts. The Five Elements Pulse was passed down from the Five Classics, ancient classics, and they preserved many of them. So compared to the Heavenly Corpse Pulse, the Five Elements obviously know more, so they can see farther.
Do you mean that the heaven and earth will gradually get closer, eventually overlap to the origin, and restore chaos? The old Taoist priest suddenly asked.
This is impossible! Gamu exclaimed on the spot.
Why not? I looked at him.
How is this possible... He still looked surprised.
I think it is very likely. In myths and legends, the heaven and earth were opened by Pangu who supported the heaven and stepped on the earth. The clear rises, the turbid sinks, the clear is the sky, and the turbid is the earth. Looking at Gamu, I said slowly: Everyone knows that if two things that should be together are forcibly separated, it will eventually cause a great rebound. After the creation of the world, the heaven and the earth should never overlap, but why can't they overlap? If the myth is true, Pangu died of extreme fatigue and exhaustion, which means that the power of the heaven and the earth to overlap is very great.
But this, this... Gamu looked a little unhappy, and shook his head and said: It's too mythical, I really can't imagine it...
Only the unimaginable are called myths. But just because they are unimaginable doesn’t mean they don’t exist. How about the Kunlun Mountain? How about the giant bird Xiyou that towers on the top of the mountain and is countless miles long? How about the dead god Yuyu? To ordinary people, these are just myths and should not exist. But they all appeared before our eyes. They are real, without a trace of falsehood. And...
Hmm? Everyone in the room looked at me, questioning me.
She is in the underworld, I said.
The Yellow Spring? Gamu and Wei Qingcang looked at each other. They wanted to speak, but after thinking about it, they didn't speak. Perhaps they felt that what they wanted to say might not be right. Therefore, they both looked at me, waiting for the follow-up words.
She had been there for a long time. I continued: A long time ago, I went to the Blue Sky and Yellow Spring to find her. She asked me if I knew what that place was. I said I didn't know, and then she told me that it was the last place where heaven and earth were connected. The Blue Sky is the sky, and the Yellow Spring is the earth. I always thought that it was like a line connecting the upper and lower parts, but now it seems that it is not the case. The Blue Sky and Yellow Spring are not connections, but supports, the last pillars between heaven and earth...
Fanran, who was listening nearby, couldn't help but exclaim and asked in a low voice: Is this true?
I nodded and said: I didn't understand it before, but now I know more, and after analyzing some abnormalities, it is easy to understand. What she called rebirth is probably to let the heaven and earth overlap and restore the original chaotic state. Only in this way can everything be called a new life.
You mean, Biluo Huangquan is the giant pillar that supports the sky. Everything she did was to make this pillar collapse? Wei Qingcang's mind turned quickly and he understood it immediately.
That should be the case, I replied.
This is just your guess, it can't be taken seriously. Gamu frowned and said.
It's a guess, but I can't think of a better answer.
What Tianyou said makes some sense. The old Taoist finally spoke. Although he looked thoughtful, he was not distressed. Instead, he looked calm: The old senior told me that the head of the Basuo family thought that the intention of the ancestors was wrong, and she wanted to rebel. And Basuo has always been following the will of heaven and acting on behalf of heaven. In addition, what they do most is to maintain the order between heaven and earth, and not allow any place to change. Any change is considered to be against the will of heaven. The sealing of heaven and earth two thousand years ago may also be related to this.
Hmm? Why do you think so? I was a little confused.
The old Taoist said calmly: The first thing she did when she went to the underworld was to open the gap in the lock of the fiefdom and let the underworld revive. Then you went to the underworld because of her words and took away the spirit of the Emperor of Heaven, which led to the Emperor of Heaven escaping and Yama waking up. Now the lock of the fiefdom may not be able to survive. As the underworld grows, everything will return to the way it was two thousand years ago. And the revival of the underworld seems to have also brought changes to the world.
Indeed... I nodded in agreement: Although Liao is not a good person, some of his methods are worthy of praise. Before we turned against each other, he told me that he had an instrument that could monitor the energy of the entire Chinese region. He found that the energy concentration between heaven and earth began to rise slowly after a certain time. And that time was when the gap in the fiefdom lock was opened.
I feel that, too. Wei Qingcang also nodded and said: The power gathered during practice is increasing, and it is becoming easier and easier.
The spells of my Five Elements Meridians are more powerful than before, and the power between heaven and earth has become more active, the old Taoist added.
But why can't I string these together? Gamu was still puzzled: Even if the underworld revived and the energy increased, what did this have to do with the sky?
I looked at him and asked: Do you think heaven is above or below?
Of course it is above, Gamu answered without hesitation.
Then do you know that the earth is round? I continued to ask.
Nonsense! He glared at me and said: Don't beat around the bush, just say what you want to say!
I laughed and then asked: We are standing here now, with the sky above us. What about the people at the other opposite point of the Earth? Shouldn't they be standing feet to feet with us, in the opposite direction?
Of course! Gamu seemed a little angry, but as soon as he said that, he immediately reacted: You...
My meaning is very simple. Whether the sky is the sky or the earth is the earth is up to people to define. If I say that the sky is above my head, then it is the sky. If I say that the sky is under the feet of someone at another point, then it is also the sky. Therefore, the sky and the earth may be different for us, but for itself, there is no difference. Just like the thumb and the index finger, although they are different in thickness, they are both my own fingers and come from one body. The revival of the earth may represent the revival of the sky. This is a kind of relativity.
Gamu remained silent after what I said, but Wei Qingcang said with some admiration: I didn't expect that you can say such . You have practiced for such a short time, but you see things more far than me.
Actually, this is not something I came up with, I said.
Oh? Wei Qingcang and Gamu were both a little surprised.
Ever since I inherited the Five Classics, I always feel like something is constantly pouring into my mind. It's very vague, and I can't figure it out when I think about it carefully, but I can always understand many things unintentionally. It's as if I already knew some things.
Wudian receives the life and breath of all things from the void, so he knows everything in the world. It seems that you have already begun to open the way of inheritance belonging to Wudian. The old Taoist said.
What about you? I turned to look at him.
I know too much, so I don't know whether I should have known it a long time ago or just now. The old Taoist priest said this very confusing sentence, but I immediately understood what he meant.
Indeed, the Five Elements Meridians knew a lot, a lot. So even with the Five Classics inheritance, he couldn't tell whether it was the Five Classics that made him understand, or whether he should have understood it long ago.
What about you? Any special feelings? I looked at Fanran again.
Me? She was a little surprised, thought for a moment, and said: I think so. Sometimes I suddenly understand something, but it’s not very clear.
I laughed. It seems that the inheritance of the Five Classics really did work on the three of us.
Tianyou, you are not hiding something from us? The old Taoist priest suddenly asked.
Huh? My heart trembled, and I subconsciously denied: Of course not, why are you asking this?
You are talking about her, not mother, said the old Taoist priest.
I was shocked and felt a little annoyed. How could I have forgotten this? Although I knew that I had become enemies with the woman who was my mother by blood, other people did not know. Before, when I talked about her, I always added "my mother". Unexpectedly, this detail was discovered by the Taoist priest.
It was a slip of the tongue, mainly because we were together for too short a time and there wasn't much mother-son affection or anything like that. I just made it up.
The old Taoist priest looked at me with a calm expression, but it seemed that he could see through people's hearts. This made me break out in a cold sweat, fearing that he would really ask me something else.
Fortunately, the Taoist priest did not ask any further questions but remained silent.
At this time, Gamu asked: Since you know so much, can you calculate how long it will take for heaven and earth to return?
Uh... I thought about it and finally decided to tell them: Maybe it will take another ten years. This is just a guess and I can’t explain it clearly.
In my opinion, there is not much time left. Wei Qingcang shook his head.
Huh? I looked at him in astonishment and asked: How did you know?
A feeling that is also hard to explain.
A man's sixth sense... Bah, you are teasing me! I almost wanted to yell, isn't this obviously teasing me? I was so scared that my heart almost stopped.
But for some reason, when Wei Qingcang said that maybe there wasn’t that much time, I suddenly felt uneasy.
This is definitely a bad sign. Although Wei Qingcang spoke because of his feelings, I had the illusion that this was the truth.
Is it true that time is really running out? Is Grandpa Shi lying to me?
This is unlikely... With Grandpa Shi's personality, if he doesn't want me to know the truth, he won't say a word. But then again, how does he know that there are still more than ten years?
Did she say that?
This is possible...
But if it was what she said, it was basically unbelievable. With that woman's mind, would she reveal all her plans? In my opinion, the reason why she told Grandpa Shi and others about the great changes in the world was to change something.
Everything should be under her control.
Suddenly, I thought of Jiuqiu.
Back then on the plateau, Jiuqiu intended to enter Kunlun to move the imperial throne. Although she tried to stop him, she did not take a strong stance. At this moment, it seemed that she was just pretending.
Could it be that Jiuqiu moved the throne to deal with her, which actually fulfilled her wish?
