Plane Supermarket

Things are different, when Ye Zhou saw Lin You, these four words only came to mind.

Lin You is getting old—not referring to his appearance, but his temperament. His face has lost the confusion of his youth, but he has also lost his vigor. He is like an old man who has reached his twilight years. People have become more relaxed.

Even weak.

He bowed to Ye Zhou three times and nine times, more sincerely and in awe than when he was young.

It may be that he has witnessed the insignificance of manpower, so he believes in the power of immortality even more.

"Save the world?" Ye Zhou held a cup of tea in his hand. He passed through three planes, and he didn't feel heavy when he heard such words again. He looked at Lin You who was crying while talking, and said calmly: "Things that have rotted to the root, there is no need to save them."

Lin You stopped crying, he raised his head, his eyes were blank, as if he had returned to his youth.

Ye Zhou: "If it's poisoned, you can scrape the bone to heal the poison, but if it's already rotten, what's the use of saving it?"

Lin You asked foolishly: "Is the immortal saying... a change of dynasty?"

Lin You never thought of this. No matter who is on the throne, he believes that a minister should be loyal to the king and the country. He wants to save the people, but he doesn't want to be a traitor and leave a mark in the history books. Infamy through the ages.

He wanted to be a loyal minister, a pure minister, but the immortal said... there is no need to save him.

Looking at Lin You's appearance, Ye Zhou couldn't bear it, but he continued: "It's natural to change the dynasty. Ordinary people say long live, but who can live long live? It's just a wish in the prosperous age."

"What is the difference between a country and a person? People are born, old, sick and die, and the country is the same."

Lin You knelt on the ground, and he sat down on his lap as if he lost his strength, staring blankly at the floor.

Ye Zhou: "You also have to think about what a country is. Is it the tens of millions of people, or the relatives of the emperor who live in the temple, or the nobles who have been passed down from generation to generation? Who do you want to save if you want to save the world? "

As soon as these words came out, Lin You seemed to hear Hong Zhong making a loud noise in his ears, which made him tremble all over. These words were like a gust of wind, blowing away all the fog in his heart, and like a sharp knife, peeling away his self-deception. shell.

Lin You knelt down on the ground as if he was out of strength. Half of his body was cold and the other half was hot. The two forces pulled him, making him in agony.

"You see, in the final analysis, what you want to save is not the world." Ye Zhou, "What you want to save is the authority of the world, and the people are just incidental. If you can't figure this out, no one can be saved."

As a child of an aristocratic family, Lin You couldn't get rid of the stigma of class on him. If he wanted to save the world, he had to break free from his identity as a child of an aristocratic family. If he wanted to raise his knife, he had to target more than people outside his class. .

and people in his own class

Ye Zhou: "I can't help you."

"Yes, it's Lin... self-righteous, blinded by a leaf..." Lin You raised his head, his eyes were filled with tears, but his eyes became extraordinarily firm, and the youthful vigor seemed to return to his eyes.

Now Ye Zhou was willing to talk to him further.

·

"The immortal is talking to him." Caoerniang handed the man a cup of tea. The man dared not enter the supermarket, and only dared to stand at the door when Lin You entered. Bad guy, just invite him into the supermarket.

But she also asked Wu Yan to stare at the man, if something was wrong, draw the gun directly, and don't give the other party a chance to fight back.

The man was dumbfounded, but the paper cup of tea that Caoerniang handed over seemed weightless. When he touched it lightly, the cup sank inward, but it didn't break, and the tea in the cup never overflowed.

Since coming here, the man has been jumping back and forth between shock and horror.

Is this a fairy cave or a monster cave?

Is this kind-looking old woman in front of me really a human being?

He heard Lin You call this woman Li Gu, so he asked cautiously: "Dare to ask Xiangu, what is this place?"

When Caoerniang heard the word "Xiangu", she felt that this young man was very pleasing to the eye, and she also smiled: "This place is the fairy cave."

The man was sitting on the sofa, feeling uncomfortable all over his body. He only felt that the chair was very soft, but it would not let him sink in. It seemed that there were steel bones supporting him, but it would not crush him. The tea in his hand smelled Fragrance, because he was afraid of being respectful, he was more careful when speaking: "My lord and the immortal... are old acquaintances?"

Cao Erniang thought about it, and felt that this statement was not wrong: "It is indeed old, but Master Lin was still a young man at that time."

She sighed, "Twenty years have passed."

She herself finds it strange, but after a few months, when she comes back, the world will change, and 20 years will pass in a blink of an eye. This may be the first day in the sky and the first year on earth in the storybook.

Although the flow of time does not match very well, the reason is this.

Cao Erniang looked at it for a while, and finally asked: "I don't know what the name of the strong man is?"

Man: "My surname is Zhao, Zhao Kuo."

He didn't dare to mention his official position. In the fairy cave, the mortal official position should not be worth mentioning.

Zhao Kuo glanced at the utensils in the "Dong Fu" from the corner of his eye. Everything here made him feel like falling into a dream. The shelves next to each other were filled with things he had never seen or heard before. The sun is brighter outside.

It's just that the people here... don't look like fairies and fairies, but are no different from ordinary people.

Zhao Kuo's heart was full of doubts, but he didn't dare to ask, he just sat in his seat, his mind was full of strange thoughts, like a mess, but he couldn't find a clue.

Cao'erniang suddenly said: "My lord, don't look at it, we are indeed mortals, we were rescued by the immortals, and we went to the Three Thousand Small World with the immortals."

Zhao Kuo was shocked and murmured, "Three Thousand Worlds..."

Cao Erniang nodded: "Young master, are you hungry? Would you like something to eat?"

Zhao Kuo quickly waved his hand, he has no appetite at all now: "No need, Zhao is not hungry."

So Mother Cao gave Cao'er a wink and told her to keep an eye on this man, while she waited at the door of the lounge.

Cao'er's hair now reaches her chest. Although her facial features have not changed, her temperament has changed a lot and her skin is much whiter because she doesn't have to work every day. Although she is far from a beauty, her bearing is already extraordinary.

Cao'er doesn't look sideways, she knows she talks a lot, so now she is going to practice closed mantra.

There are some things I can only tell my sister.

Sarah came back from the seasoning area, holding a pack of dried chilies in her hand, and walked forward while chewing. She didn't stop when she saw Zhao Kuo, but she was a little surprised: "He came so soon?"

Wu Yan next to him said, "Mr. Lin is here."

Sarah turned around in her mind, who is Mr. Lin?She can't remember.

The 400 years did not improve Sarah's memory. On the contrary, because she saw too many people, she would subconsciously forget unimportant people.

But Sarah still nodded, as if she knew everything: "It's him."

Zhao Kuo almost fell off the sofa the moment he saw Sarah. He tried his best not to lose his composure, but there was an uproar in his heart. Blonde hair and red eyes are common among barbarians, but these strange red pupils are Goodbye The well-informed have never seen it.

"Strong man, don't panic." Seeing that he was terribly frightened, Cao'er broke her closed phrase and said in a low voice, "She is a monster enlightened by a fairy, she has not done any evil, and will not hurt anyone."

"Monster, monster?" Zhao Kuo's liver and gallbladder were broken, but he still forced a smile, "No wonder...it's not similar to ordinary people."

Cao'er gave him a sympathetic look.

The first time she saw Sarah, she threatened Sarah with a knife.

Thinking about it now, she doesn't know where she got the courage. Thinking about the people who died in Sarah's hands later, she can only thank her sister for not killing her.

In the lounge, Ye Zhou leaned on the sofa, closed his eyes and talked to Lin You.

"I don't know if the immortals still remember Zhao Er and the others." Lin You and Ye Zhou talked about "the old man", "They didn't open an escort agency after they returned to the south. They each bought a field, and now they have no worries about food and clothing."

Ye Zhou nodded slightly, but didn't feel any emotion: "Really? That's good."

Lin You also said: "This time the bandits were suppressed, it was the Yellow Bandits. Now they have changed their king. The leader of the bandits is Yang Zhi. He claimed that he had seen a god and had his own destiny. So he rose up and wanted to change the day..."

Yang Zhi?Ye Zhou thought about it seriously, and finally remembered: "It's him?"

As soon as Lin You heard the tone of the immortal, he knew that Yang Zhi had indeed seen the immortal, and he asked cautiously, "Is the immortal looking at him like an emperor?"

Ye Zhou had never met Yang Zhi at all, he only remembered the name, and remembered that the other party asked him to buy a horse.

Hmm... The other party gave him a lot of things in exchange at that time, which seemed to have solved his urgent needs.

But there was only one name for this person in Ye Zhou's memory, so Ye Zhou said: "He died that day, I only asked someone to help, and I didn't see him with my own eyes."

Lin You lowered his eyes: "This person is now very prestigious in the north, and he built the Northern Court by himself, intending to tear the ground and rule."

Ye Zhou smiled. He didn't expect that the bandit who bought the horse from him at that time had the heart to dominate and go to this point.

"I came here today to destroy Beiting." Lin You didn't feel that what he did was wrong when he came.

After all, he is loyal to the country, and since he is the country, he must punish rape and eliminate evil, but if according to the immortals, changing dynasties is the natural way of heaven, then what is the point of him suppressing bandits?

Would changing the emperor be worse than the current situation?

Ye Zhou: "In that case, you can go."

Lin You: "The immortal thinks that Lin should suppress bandits?"

Ye Zhou still closed his eyes: "Why don't you use your eyes to see how the people under his rule are doing."

"It's easy to distinguish between good and evil. If the people live well, it's good. If the people live poorly, it's evil. Others are just heresy."

Lin You straightened his collar, knelt down again, and touched his forehead to the ground: "Thank you Immortal for your guidance."

Lin You is not an ambitious person, he has too many worries, he can neither rise up against the rebellion nor compete with the class, he is like a boat in troubled times, he has a heart to save people, but no heart of stone.

Compassion does not control soldiers, righteousness does not control wealth, love does not establish affairs, and kindness does not make officials.

Some good qualities, placed in different positions will cause different consequences.

Those who are indecisive, who can be saved?

Ye Zhou didn't notice it before, but when he looked at Lin You now, he could see that he couldn't be the helmsman.

Ye Zhou didn't leave Lin You to rest in the supermarket. He asked Cao'er Niang to send Lin You away. After all, he had met him once. He even asked Cao Er Niang to prepare some convenience food for Lin You.

Before leaving, Lin You asked Ye Zhou: "God sent immortals down to earth, isn't it for the purpose of changing the dynasty?"

Ye Zhou shook his head: "No, it's natural to change dynasties, and it's also natural for me to go down to earth to practice, it's all natural."

Lin You bowed three times before finally leaving.

·

Lin You came out of the lounge with mixed emotions in his heart, but just as he went out, he saw Zhao Kuo sitting on the sofa. Zhao Kuo was still holding a cup of cold tea in his hand, and was staring blankly at the shelf.

"Brother Zhao." Lin You put away all the thoughts in his heart, and walked towards him with a smile.

Zhao Kuo stood up nervously, and asked in a low voice, "Is the immortal here? My lord, do you need to go and see me?"

Lin You shook his head slightly: "It's not necessary. The immortal never said he wanted to see you, so he didn't see you."

Zhao Kuo was both happy and disappointed.

He whispered, "The things on these shelves..."

Lin You just remembered, and he said with a smile: "Brother Zhao, you can go shopping as you like. If you have something to exchange, you can exchange the things here."

"The immortal is benevolent and doesn't care about it."

Zhao Kuo's eyes widened, and he stood up suddenly: "Really?"

He was asking Cao'er who was standing beside him.

Cao'er nodded: "Young Master Lin is right."

Zhao Kuo strode forward. He was extremely curious about the items on the shelves. Fortunately, Cao'er followed him and explained the uses of the products to him in detail.

"This is an electric fan. It's for cooling off. It can be used over there." Cao'er led Zhao Kuo to the side to blow the fan.

Zhao Kuo looked at the constantly rotating blades, his face flushed with excitement: "This thing can spin itself without manpower and wind!"

Cao'er explained: "But it needs electricity. If a strong man wants to change it, he won't be able to use it when he moves back."

Zhao Kuo was stunned, and asked: "What is electricity? The power of lightning? How can lightning be used by people?"

Cao'er didn't understand either, so she could only ask Zhao Kuo to wait for a while, and then called Feng Ling to explain.

After thinking about the wording, Feng Ling said: "Wind power, water power and electric power are both forces of nature. The former two can be used by people, and the latter can naturally, but they need more media."

Zhao Kuo: "What do you use as a matchmaker? Can ordinary people use it?"

Feng Ling: "Ordinary people can use it, but..."

Feng Ling explained the principle of using electricity to Zhao Kuo in detail, and Zhao Kuo was at a loss - he couldn't understand it, only thought it was very powerful.

"Instead of asking about electricity, you might as well ask about steam."

"Compared to electricity, it should be easier for you to use steam."

Lin You was also listening. He was more interested in steam than electricity. Feng Ling had no choice but to start a small class.

The earliest steam engine did not have much technical content. It may be difficult for this era, but this difficulty can definitely be overcome. Feng Ling also drew a blueprint and handed it to them.

When Lin You took it, he hesitated again and again, but still asked, "Where did the fairy come from?"

It's really that Feng Ling is really not like a woman from the Liang Dynasty.

Feng Ling thought for a while: "I don't know if it will be a hundred years or a thousand years."

Both Lin You and Zhao Kuo looked at Feng Ling in disbelief, Cao'er finally couldn't help it anymore, she said: "Feng Ling is one of the three thousand worlds, where she is, there are towering buildings, and the roads are driven by electricity. lamps, and cars made of iron, you don’t need horses and oxen to pull them, just step on the gas pedal, and it will be automatic!”

She finished speaking in one breath, and closed her mouth tightly again.

Feng Ling smiled and said, "It's the same as what she said."

Lin You's lips twitched, and he stammered, "This is really... really..."

Feng Ling: "We have no emperor, no nobles, and no family."

Lin You asked puzzledly, "Then who will govern the country?"

Feng Ling: "Of course they are officials, but they are all selected through examinations and cannot be hereditary. The country's top leaders are also voted by ordinary people. It depends on political performance and reputation. It is held every five years."

Now Lin You and Zhao Kuo were stunned, they never imagined that it could be like this.

Feng Ling was rather surprised: "The emperor is just a person. This person is wise, maybe only for a while, and he can't guarantee it himself. How can he guarantee his children and grandchildren?"

"Isn't it terrible to entrust the fate of a country to one person?" Feng Ling said.

Lin You smiled wryly and said, "That's the truth."

Zhao Kuo's three views were broken, and he also said vaguely: "Your Majesty has a destiny, and with the blessing of heaven, his descendants should also be wise."

Feng Ling: "How did the king of subjugation come about? Could it be that the empress in the palace gave the emperor a cuckold?"

Now Lin You and Zhao Kuo's expressions changed.

Feng Ling saw that their expressions were not right, so she didn't continue talking.

Regarding the topic of cuckolding the emperor, it is better not to continue talking.

The things Zhao Kuo got in the end were small things, probably because they only had two horses, and they had to suppress the bandits later, so they couldn't take away the big things.

Feng Ling took what Zhao Kuo handed over - a jade pendant and a jade finger ring.

Zhao Kuo was a little ashamed: "I really didn't bring anything out."

Feng Ling scanned it with a barcode scanner, and smiled at Zhao Kuo after seeing the price: "That's enough, you can pick some more things."

Zhao Kuo quickly said: "No, no, this time is enough, I will not be greedy."

Instead, Feng Ling persuaded: "The next time the immortal will come again, I don't know when it will be, it may be decades, or it may be a hundred years later."

Zhao Kuo glanced at Lin You, and Lin You sighed quietly: "It's been twenty years since I came here last time, Aunt Li and the others have not changed their appearance..."

Zhao Kuo swallowed his saliva, but he quickly thought of his parents, wives and concubines, as well as the children at home. It was impossible to ask the immortals to accept him as a disciple. Without him, how could a family survive in troubled times?

But the temptation of immortality is too great, Zhao Kuo forced himself not to think about it.

Zhao Kuo changed into a snakeskin bag to hold the gadgets he exchanged for.

He not only changed the binoculars, but also the flashlight and the children's walkie-talkie. These three things are the most useful to him. The rest are some dry food and handicrafts. He even changed some earrings and necklaces.

A snakeskin bag was filled to the brim by him.

Lin You also took out the hosta and replaced it with a telescope, but nothing else.

Originally, Ye Zhou wanted Lin You to take Wu Yan and the others to go together, but after thinking about it, Lin You and the others are now on their way to suppress the bandits. No matter what he will do in the end, there will definitely be conflicts between the two sides. It is really not suitable for a baby to go on the road with them.

But wait for Lin You to return?That's not very reliable, no one knows how long it will take for them to suppress the bandits.

In ancient times, wars lasted as short as a few months and as long as a few years or more than ten years. As long as both sides have supplies, there may be a stalemate for a long time. Unless there is a huge difference in strength, it is foolish to think of a quick battle.

Ye Zhou could only call Wu Yan and his wife over: "Will you stay here now, or come with me first, and come back after the war is stabilized here?"

Wu Yan and his wife looked at each other, both a little undecided.

They have a child with them, even if the immortal is willing to give them money and food, it will be difficult for Wu Yan, a mature man, to protect him.

But this time they begged to return to Daliang Dynasty, if they didn't stay, it would be like playing with a fairy.

The couple couldn't say a word. They stood in front of Ye Zhou with their heads bowed. Wu Yan said in a difficult voice, "Please ask the immortal to give us an idea."

Ye Zhou thought about it. After all, he was his employee. After working for him for so long, he still hoped that they would not take risks: "It's not a good thing for you to stay."

"It's better to stay with me for a while."

There is a time difference between the two sides, maybe when they come back next time, the Liang Dynasty has returned to peace.

Wu Yan and his wife breathed a sigh of relief—they wanted to let the child grow up, but they didn't want to risk their lives. Compared with life, it's not a big deal for the child to be a baby for a few more months.

Seeing the expressions on the two of them, Ye Zhou knew that he made the right decision.

He only hoped that Lin You would not die on the way to suppress the bandits, and it would be better if he could escort Wu Yan, otherwise Ye Zhou would not dare to let Wu Yan open a branch here, without the protection of the powerful, it would be useless for him to shoot Wu Yan more .

·

Lin You and Zhao Kuo, who left the supermarket, led the horses. Zhao Kuo put the snakeskin bag on the horse's back. They didn't speak all the way until they returned to the main road. Lin You got on the horse and watched Zhao Kuo put the snakeskin bag Hug in front of you.

Zhao Kuo finally couldn't help asking: "Lord Lin, do you think what the fairy said is true or false?"

Lin You smiled: "Of course it's true, why would she make up nonsense to deceive us?"

He still held the steam engine blueprint that Feng Ling gave him in his arms. Feng Ling told him that starting from scratch is the most difficult thing, but once you have it, it is easy to improve it, and there are always smart people who can understand the key points.

Zhao Kuo still couldn't believe it: "If there is no emperor, how can the world be stable? How to deal with corrupt officials?"

Lin You only said: "Don't think about it, the immortal never told me this, and you also know that it will be a hundred years later, how can you apply it mechanically?"

"Let's go quickly. We've been delayed for so long. I don't know if we can catch them before dark." Lin You clamped the horse's belly tightly, raised the whip, yellow sand was everywhere, and Lin You rode away.

Zhao Kuo looked down at the snakeskin bag on his chest, took a deep breath, and speeded up.

Riding on the horse, Lin You turned his head and glanced in the direction of the supermarket.

He waited 20 years to see the fairy again.

I don't know when will we see you next time.

Perhaps he was very old by then.

And the immortal youth stays forever and remains unchanged forever.
