Take Erha to wander [the end of the world]

A hundred years later...

The catastrophe that year has only become a line of words in the textbooks of later generations of students.The students memorized this piece of text in the history book idly, 100 years is enough to turn the thrilling past into a boring homework.

The global population has grown rapidly in the past hundred years, from a mere tens of millions to now, it is close to [-] million people.

Just mentioning that there were 70 billion people living on the earth in the past, it is simply a fantasy for children born in this era.After all, in their eyes, a population of [-] million is already a huge number.

Occasionally, on the reconstructed and highly developed network, someone will make a video to review this period of history.

It cannot be said that they have forgotten history.Instead, they lived the life that people dreamed of during the catastrophe.

When people's attention is on all kinds of entertainment, games, or three meals a day, it means that the world is really peaceful.

This is the most ideal era in dreams made of countless flesh and blood.

What a luxury.

Looking at the location on the satellite map, Zhang Xiaodong came to a mountainous area alone with a backpack on his back and a solar electric car.

In the era of highly concentrated human habitation, most of the land was returned to nature.

One after another, uninhabited lands that have been maintained for hundreds of years are scattered all over the world, and people have learned not to disturb them as much as possible.

There are no people here for a hundred miles, but the temperature is suitable for all seasons like spring.

But Zhang Xiaodong didn't come here for tourism, but to find the fairy who lived here in the legend.

This is like saying that Guanyin Bodhisattva lives on the fairy island in the South China Sea in the past. It is illusory, but many people firmly believe it.

Zhang Xiaodong is one of them.

He is a half-hearted Taoist priest.

When I was young, my bones were not good, so my parents sent me to the Taoist master to meditate and chant scriptures, and then I learned some fists and feet to maintain my health.

But as the child grows older and learns more and more, many things begin to be unclear.

The questions are getting more and more correct, but there are fewer and fewer people who can solve them for him.

He can't see his future clearly, and his heart of cultivation is unstable.

There are two paths in front of her, one is to return to the common world completely, return to the world and continue to be the person of Su Zhong Yousu, without thinking too much, being pushed forward by the rhythm of life, until the moment like that.

Another day, I will travel all over the world and find it by myself.

There is a long-standing saying that there are gods in this place.But no one has ever seen it.

Zhang Xiaodong came here unknowingly in confusion, he wanted to go into the mountain to have a look.

This is the sacred place in the hearts of all cultivators all over the country. Even if you don't get anything, it's good to come here and stay for a while.

Parking the electric car at the foot of the mountain, Zhang Xiaodong went up the mountain with a sickle, a wooden warehouse and trekking poles and a backpack on his back.

Because mutated animals have existed for hundreds of years, wooden warehouses are usually equipped when going to the wild, but they must be handed over when they go out of the mountains and return to the place where people live.

After walking up the mountain for a while, I didn't meet a single mutated animal.On the contrary, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant here, with a tranquility and peace that is rare in other places.

Between breathing, it seems that the body and mind are also purified in it.

Looking up, the sun cast a shade through the treetops, and a few birds jumped up and down on the treetops, and there was a burst of cheerful birdsong.I heard a few cicadas chirping in the distance, and in the lush forest, it was a long way back.

If there is a fairyland in the world, then this is it.

Zhang Xiaodong found a place to sit down, pinched a leaf in his palm, and sat down cross-legged.

He seemed to understand something.

When he closed his eyes, he was stunned again, and it was pitch black all around, and it turned out to be so dark.

So this is entering meditation?

Fortunately, no beasts were encountered during this period.

Zhang Xiaodong stood up and tidied his clothes. When the wind blew, he felt his body was cold. He hurriedly opened his backpack and took out his flashlight, thinking about finding an open space to start a fire. Here is a stretch of trees, so it is easy to start a fire.

I walked around a few times with a flashlight, alone in the dark and cold night, somewhat scared.At this moment, seeing the flames in the distance, Zhang Xiaodong hastened to run over there.

At this moment, there is no time to think about who and how people are there.In such a quiet environment, it is also a good thing to have someone to talk with.

After running a few steps forward, it suddenly became clear.There is a lake in front of it.The surrounding area of ​​the lake is very clean. There is only a bamboo forest in the east, and there are no flammable things around the rest of the lake.

And the fire was coming from the side of the lake, a burning man was sitting next to him, and there was a man in Taoist robes roasting meat.

Seeing that Taoist robe, Zhang Xiaodong's last bit of fear disappeared without a trace.

I ran over a few steps, felt the warmth of the fire, and felt my bones become flexible.When he got closer, he saw the Taoist priest looking up at him, Zhang Xiaodong hurriedly said hello: "Senior brother!"

Among peers, when you don't know the seniority, the older ones are called senior brothers, and the existing ones are called fellow daoists, which is good.

Zhang Xiaodong is only sixteen this year, and the other side is obviously in his 20s.

"Sit." He pointed to a futon next to him.

When Zhang Xiaodong was done, he looked up at the senior brother.Not to mention, he was quite good-looking. In the firelight, his brows and eyes were gentle, and there seemed to be stars in his eyes.

"Are you also here to find the gods?" Zhang Xiaodong took off his backpack and held it in his arms.

The meat roasted on the flame sizzled, and the aroma penetrated into Zhang Xiaodong's nose, making him rub his nose.

That should be a rabbit, and the sprinkles on it are really good.But it's not like what a Taoist priest should eat.After all, what Zhang Xiaodong ate with his master when he was young was relatively bland.Taboo spicy seasoning several times.

"Well, the main reason is that the environment here is good." The Taoist picked up the rabbit to have a look, and sprinkled a little pepper on it.

The wind blew over, and the chili smoked Zhang Xiaodong down.Zhang Xiaodong sneezed hard, only to find that the snot was left behind, so he hurriedly found a tissue to wipe it off.

"It's so beautiful here. Even if there are no gods, it's worth staying here for a while. I've never seen such a beautiful place." Zhang Xiaodong wiped his nose and felt a little hungry again when he saw the meat.

The Taoist said with a smile: "Do you also believe that there are gods here?"

Zhang Xiaodong rubbed his nose, the scent always got into his nose, it was too tempting: "I don't know. After all, no one has seen it. But if there are no gods, then what is my cultivation? Maybe there is, or It is said that there are no gods in people's concept. But there must be people who have cultivated to the peak. Such people should be worthy of the gods in people's hearts."

"In this case, what's the point of praying to gods and worshiping Buddha?" The Taoist just smiled.

It's really strange to ask this question, what do you worship if you don't worship God?If you don't yearn for immortals, why come here?

"I don't know." Zhang Xiaodong said bluntly, "What do you think, brother?"

Instead, he just smiled and said, "What are you worshiping in the gymnasium?"

Zhang Xiaodong thought about it: "Sanqing."

"Where are you out of the Taoist temple?" The Taoist asked.

Zhang Xiaodong thought about it: "It's better to worship them, but not to worship the gods."

"Then without the statues, would they not exist?" The Taoist asked again.

Zhang Xiaodong seemed to understand something: "They shouldn't be limited to one thing, should they?"

"In the same way, instead of being a god in the sky, it's better to worship the god you need most in your heart. Whatever you need is what the god in your heart is. Be in awe of all things and be worthy of the heaven and earth. Then Clay statue worship is the same as being invincible." The Taoist laughed.

Zhang Xiaodong didn't speak, but carefully savored what he said.

He is half a child after all.He couldn't understand such complicated words.

Writing down vaguely, Zhang Xiaodong looked back at the lake glowing with silver light under the moonlight.

"Then why did you come here, brother?"

If it's not to look for gods, is it really just to see the scenery?

"Who knows." The Taoist didn't answer, but saw that the rabbit was almost roasted, blew on the hot air, cut off a rabbit leg with a knife and handed it to Zhang Xiaodong.

Zhang Xiaodong's saliva was almost on the floor, but he still held back and said, "Is it okay to eat this here?"

Anyway, this is also a holy place.Eating meaty meat here, and using so many condiments, wouldn't it be suspected of blasphemy?

"I've eaten it many times." The Taoist cut off a piece of meat and chewed it sweetly.

It was so fragrant, Zhang Xiaodong couldn't resist taking a small bite, the oily and fragrant taste, the last time I ate it seemed to be a child!

This workmanship is too good.

The two ate a rabbit and were full.The Taoist priest sat there cross-legged as if he was doing his homework. Zhang Xiaodong also sat cross-legged in meditation, but opened his eyes to look at the Taoist priest from time to time.

When he looked at the Taoist priest for the fourth time, the Taoist priest also looked at Zhang Xiaodong.

The Taoist priest looked young, but when he opened his eyes, it seemed as if thousands of stars flashed by. His gaze was too quiet, and it seemed a little unreal.

This should be the cultivation to a certain level.

I don't know how long it will take me until now.

Zhang Xiaodong swallowed.

"Brother, do you think that cultivation can really make people live forever?"

"Difficult." The Taoist looked at Zhang Xiaodong carefully, and said again, "But you have a good self-control. If you devote yourself to cultivation, it is not a problem to be one or two hundred years old. If there is an adventure, it should be longer."

"Then... what about you, brother?" Zhang Xiaodong asked a little excitedly.

"Me?" The Taoist blinked and smiled, "I'm already a hundred years old."

? !

Zhang Xiaodong stood up directly: "You you you you you you..."

With trembling mouth, he said a series of you.

For fear that he would not believe it, he said, "When I experienced that catastrophe in the world, I was a few years older than you."

"Are you the fairy in the legend?" Zhang Xiaodong asked hastily.

"Perhaps. In fact, I have only been here for 50 years. If you say god...my Taoist companion should be more worthy of these two words."

As soon as the Taoist finished speaking, he raised his head.Zhang Xiaodong looked up and saw the bright moon in the sky, there was a figure standing in the sky, blocking the moon.

It was a slender figure, just standing there motionless.

Immediately, he moved!

With every step, as if stepping on the ground, a spark ignited under his feet.

Walking down step by step, there is already a ladder made of flames behind you!

Under the firelight, that earth-shatteringly beautiful man slowly walked to the Taoist priest.

The moment Zhang Xiaodong and the man looked at each other!In the next second, the whole person fell into a coma!

……

When I woke up again, I was surrounded by a lush forest.Zhang Xiaodong crossed his legs, the sound of birdsong still ringing in his ears.Looking at the surrounding environment again, it was clearly the place where he entered meditation when he first went up the mountain.

It turned out that everything was just a dream.

--【postscript】--

Nibbling on the pillow of a 20-pound big fish, tearing at the meat without any image, he complained: "We have appeared in more than [-] performances this time. It was everyone who asked me to go to heaven."

Ao Zha smiled and said, "It's not everyone who has it, but it's just watching people with wisdom roots order it. It's supposed to benefit mankind."

"Why do people always come here? Didn't you say that you live in seclusion here?" Pillow asked again.

"Who knows how this place has become a fairyland on earth."

Who knows.
