Make You Happy

  Chapter 136 Waiting for the reason

  It was only a few words, but it made everyone present feel an unprecedented sense of unknown confusion, and even...a little bit of fear.

"Nirvana for a hundred years, life and death without boundaries...Master, this is really the final resting place of King Nanjing? Then...he is in this house outside, what do these words mean? Could it be...he can... die and come back to life? Gan Gu frowned and asked all the doubts in his heart in one breath.

  Gu Changan did not answer immediately, his eyes were full of unpredictable dark colors.

  Ruan Youqing's back tensed subconsciously after hearing the words "rebirth after death". After she recovered, she heard Gu Changan explain to everyone slowly:

"In Hinayana Buddhism, Nirvana means the annihilation of the body and wisdom, and the abandonment of form and thought. And there are two kinds of theories. One means that the troubles and desires of the rest of life are gone, but the body is still there. The other is Saying... refers to the fact that the spirit and body are no longer there, and everything is beyond the cycle of birth and death."

  「Hmm...Master...I still don't understand...」

Gu Changan only gave him a slight look, and continued patiently: "The horoscope on the stone tablet is Nirvana for a hundred years, and life and death have no boundaries. These hundred years...should not just refer to a full hundred years. As far as I know, the time when the King of Nanjing disappeared It's almost one hundred and thirty years ago. If life and death have no boundaries...could it be...he really found the way of longevity? Beyond the cycle of life and death?"

   At the end, Gu Changan became serious again.

  Hearing this, Ruan Youqing couldn't help but grabbed Gu Changan's hand: "About one hundred and thirty years?"

  After feeling the cold little hand, Gu Changan shook it back without hesitation, nodded and replied, "Actually, this year...it has been almost one hundred and thirty years."

  As Ruan Youqing's eyes gradually widened, Gu Changan quickly realized why Ruan Youqing paid so much attention to this.

   "You mean... Li Yi has been waiting for the 130th year?" Gu Changan lightly raised his eyebrows.

  Ruan Youqing nodded.

  She asked why Li Yi didn't rush to continue after discovering this place.

  He is not the kind of person who can bear his temper.

  Unless, something forced him to wait a year.

  Originally, Ruan Youqing thought it was the famine that delayed his action.

Now it seems…

   "This house is reckoned to be the former residence of the tomb keeper, but the tomb keeper should no longer be there..." Yu Xie suddenly opened his mouth at this time, and when he looked at the house, he was vaguely excited.

   "Then let's go in and take a look?" Li Qian also changed from his previous steady at this time, with a hint of joy in his expression.

   Sure enough, apart from being in awe of mysterious things, people are more curious and eager to try.

   After Ruan Youqing and Gu Changan glanced at each other, Gu Changan told everyone, "Even if there is no tomb guard, here...don't relax your vigilance."

   After the words fell, everyone was finally ready to enter the dilapidated hut.

  Tian Wen and Gan Gu walked cautiously at the forefront, while Li Qian and Yu Xie were arranged in the middle.

   Naturally, the last task fell on the shoulders of Ruan Youqing and Gu Changan.

   After everyone walked in, they found that the room was almost empty, except for a dilapidated square table in the middle, nothing else.

  When Gu Chang'an ordered Tian Wen and Gan Gu to search the house to see if it was safe, Ruan Youqing frowned and looked at the table with nothing on it.

  The whole room is square and square, and this table is square and square...it is placed in the middle...

  Ruan Youqing couldn't help but walked to the table curiously, and after double checking that there were no reminders on the table, he was about to turn around and leave.

   As a result, when I turned around, I saw a silver light flashing under the table from the corner of my eye.

  Ruan Youqing has always acted cautiously. After seeing the silver light, he immediately leaned over cautiously.

   Sure enough, if she hadn't accidentally noticed it just now, the few people present would have ignored the few silver threads as thin as silk entangled between the table legs.

   "This is..." Gu Changan, who has been paying attention to Ruan Youqing's safety, naturally saw her movements, and bent down along with her without thinking.

  Naturally... I also saw the tangled silver thread.

  When the other people heard the voice, they also came up curiously.

   "This is... the sky silk from the Guz Kingdom...?" Yu Xie seemed to like to study these rare things very much. After seeing it, he immediately said the name of this silver thread in surprise.

   "Guzi country?" Ruan Youqing's eyes were dim.

  This country of Guz...

  Since she was reborn, although she has never been there, she seems to have come into contact with Guz Kingdom more than once.

   While Ruan Youqing was contemplating, someone discovered something and exclaimed:

  「Silk seems to be a switch this day!」

It was the reason why he was speaking. At this time, he had already tried to use his sword hilt to touch the silk of the day. With a sudden shaking from the ground, the table suddenly split into two parts, and the ground where the table legs were connected , It was actually cracked.

  The cracks that split from the table are not neat, and it is natural to mistake them for cracks on the table itself.

  It turned out... This table turned on the switch on the ground.

  If it wasn't for some reason that their actions were quicker than their thinking, the group of them probably wouldn't have touched that silk so easily without knowing anything.

   After watching the crack gradually open into an opening for two people to enter and exit, everyone did not rush in this time.

   "This should be the entrance..." Ruan Youqing stood at the crack and looked down, only to speak softly after seeing a stone step hidden in the darkness.

   "Should we... want to go in?" Although Li Qian was worried, but looking at everything in front of him, he didn't want to go back without knowing anything.

   "Go down and take a quick look first, and see if you can find anything. After all...we know too little now." After pondering for a while, Gu Changan finally made up his mind to speak.

   It's just that he just wanted Ruan Youqing to wait up there, Ruan Youqing seemed to know what he was thinking and said, "I want to go down too."

  Her serious expression made Gu Changan swallow back what he wanted to say just now, pinched her nose helplessly, and said in a very doting tone: "There is really nothing I can do about you."

   After finishing speaking, he turned around and spoke to Li Qian, but his tone suddenly became serious and dignified: "Let's go down to explore the road first, and we will go together after we find that there is no danger. You..."

   "I'll be waiting up there." Li Qian nodded with a gloomy expression, and didn't object. After all, he knew that if he went down rashly, he would easily become a burden.

  After ordering Tian Wen to wait up there with Li Qian, Ruan Youqing and Gu Changan took Yu Xie and Gan Gu down the crack.

  Qian had a fire bag with him, so when going down the crack, everyone could see the stone steps clearly, so as not to accidentally fall.

  The stone steps were not long, and after a while, several people fell to the ground.

  Gan Gu then threw a torch into the distance, and the scene in front of him was shocking.

  But... it is barely expected by everyone.

  Beside a huge stone gate, there were more than a dozen corpses lying in disorder.

  Some rotted beyond recognition, while others were completely left with only bones.

  It seems that...

   This place has always been visited by uninvited guests.

   These dozens of corpses reminded Ruan Youqing that everyone should not come forward at will.

  Although he was unwilling in his heart, Ruan Youqing still looked at the stone door stubbornly, wanting to find something from it.

  Finally, her efforts were not in vain. On the top of the stone gate... there were indeed a few small characters engraved on it.

   There are very exquisite carvings engraved next to the small characters. If you don't concentrate on looking at them, it is easy to be attracted by the carvings and ignore the small characters.

  Those small words...

   wrote a very specific time.

   And it just so happens that they are still ten days away from the above time...

  Ruan Youqing's heart moved, and he finally understood why Li Yi had to wait for a year!
