Supreme pardon

The upper body is lying on the transparent cover, Bai Tan's arms are tightly embraced, and the side face is pressed against the glass cover, greedily hoping to get closer to the person inside.

Wen Renjue narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes were dark.

In his mind, Wei Duan was still bluffing, "What the hell is going on?"

On the way here, it's not that I haven't guessed the old man's condition, maybe it's sick, or maybe he's not in a good mood, only in this way will he not live in this house.But unexpectedly, the grandma that Bai Tan was talking about would actually look like this.

Like a corpse, just lying there motionless, even if his grandson was crying and crying, he couldn't give the slightest response.

"Grandma..." Sniffing his nose, Bai Tan closed his eyes, waited for half a minute, raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, stood up a little, pressed his forehead to the old man's cheek through the transparent glass cover, and whispered Said: "Next time I come to see you, I don't know how long it will be."

The future is uncertain, Bai Tan looks at the old man's unchanging appearance and feels guilty, the attachment in his heart makes him not want to leave this room for half a step, but...

"Tomson." He opened his lips and called softly.

"Yes, young master." Wen Renjue stood on the spot and waited until Bai Tan called out before stepping forward. Only then did he see clearly what was inside the container.

An old man with a very kind appearance lay flat, the lower half of his body was soaked in blue liquid, seven or eight white tubes of different thicknesses were inserted into his wrists and head.

"This is?" Wenren Jue asked carefully, paying attention to Bai Tan's expression.

"My grandma."

"Yes, but..." Pretending to hesitate, Wen Renjue frowned and said, "What's wrong with her?"

He didn't intend to find out. Of course, Wen Ren Jue definitely wanted to find out the old man's details, but in front of Bai Tan, he didn't need to show it at all. The reason why he asked so directly now was of course because Bai Tan also wanted to tell him.

Otherwise, why leave everyone else out and call yourself in alone?

Maybe it was because she was too lonely that made Bai Tan want to confide, or there might be other reasons, in short, the truth of what I learned from Bai Tan's mouth was always higher than the truth of the investigation.

"This is the life box." Taking a step back, Bai Tan left his hand from the cover.

Wen Renjue stared at the container, not understanding, "Life box?"

"It was developed by my family, and it contains energy supplement substances similar to nutrient solution."

"This..." Wen Ren Jue showed surprise and hesitation, and did not speak rashly.

It's not pretending, he really didn't get any information about it, could it be that he missed something?Perhaps these are known to all interstellar humans?Worried that his identity could not be disguised, he frowned and looked at Bai Tan, only to find that although the person's tone had returned to calm, his gaze was still lingering on the oval container, refusing to leave.

"It's normal that you don't know. The existence of the life box is only known to the nobles and some first-class citizens." Bai Tan didn't see Wen Renjue's weird and deep expression. Scenes were warm and beautiful, and the voice became hoarse again, "My grandma... has been lying in it for a long time."

"Is she still alive?" Wen Renjue asked directly.

Bai Tan turned his head to look at him in surprise, then turned his head again quickly, and said sadly: "He's still alive."

"The life box," Wen Renjue began to be impatient, but his tone did not show it at all, "what is it for?"

"A person's lifespan is limited, and when the oil is exhausted and the lamp is dry, it means that some people's life has come to an end, but if you are about to die, but there are still many things you want to see that have not happened, then what should you do?"

"..." Looking at the old man with a peaceful expression in the blue liquid, Wen Ren Jue Fu's heart flashed a certain idea.

"Enter a deep sleep." Bai Tan quickly gave the answer.After saying that, he covered his eyes with trembling hands.

Wen Renjue stood motionless, his expression gradually serious, and Wei Duan was too shocked to speak in his mind.

What Bai Tan is saying now is actually very similar to some core civilization theories of the descendants of the gods.

The body of consciousness cannot span too long time, and deep sleep is similar to death but not death. The only difference is that the descendants of gods cannot preserve their bodies, while humans...

Ordering the two sky eyes to land on the life box, Weiduan began to observe.

Bai Tan was standing next to the life box, but he didn't notice what happened in the room. With his back to Wen Ren Jue, he continued: "Many years ago, the doctor told grandma that she didn't have many days, but I haven't grown up yet." Big, grandma doesn't worry about me."

"So, she put herself into a deep sleep?"

In fact, it is similar to being temporarily frozen.

"Yes, the life box can indeed guarantee that people can safely spend two to three hundred years in it, but the damage caused is huge and irreversible."

Wen Renjue was able to see the Heavenly Eye, and in his sight, the entire life box was now covered by the water patterns emitted by the Heavenly Eye, but Bai Tan, who reached out to touch the life box, did not respond.

"Why is there such a thing as a life box but so little known?" Wen Renjue was really curious. The most difficult thing to know about civilization is that it involves life and its origin.

Every living body is greedy for life and afraid of death, this is its nature, but the Bai family invented such a thing, but the society doesn't know it?

"Because it's too expensive to stay inside." Bai Tan traced the outline of the old man with his fingers, "The money needed to sleep in it for a day is an astronomical figure that you can't imagine, and usually, people who choose to enter the life box will not just Sleep for two or three days."

The advantage of the life box is that it can span a long time. What Bai Tan said is true, such a family with ordinary burdens cannot bear it.

"So, few people choose to sleep in it?"

"Yes, but it's not just that." Eyes full of pain, Bai Tan lowered his eyelashes, "It's also because...after entering the life box, waking up means death."

"..." Wei Duan couldn't wait to urge him to continue.

"This kind of death-like sleep is extremely harmful to the body. Once you wake up from that state, let alone the body, the mind will also be confused."

"So..." Wen Renjue understood something, "No one in the Bai family has ever mentioned your grandma because no one dared to wake her up?"

"Grandma is worried about me, and also about the family." Turning around, Bai Tan cleanly looked straight at Wen Renjue, "She is old, if she wakes up from the life box, it may not be long before she will leave and leave immediately. ...will never come back."

"But she can't accompany you even if she lies inside." Wen Renjue directly pointed out the cruel place.

He couldn't understand this choice. If life is doomed to have only a short time left, then he should cherish it and do what he wants to do, stay with the person he wants to be with, "kill the end" in advance like this, and then fall asleep Does it really make sense to look like a dead person in a small container?

"Grandma said before going to bed that she wanted to see me grow up safely."

"Then, will you wake her up now?" Wen Renjue looked at Bai Tan, if the wish was this, then the old man would have been able to rest in peace long ago.

"No..." Bai Tan shook his head slowly, with a bitter smile on the corner of his mouth, "I'm selfish, but I don't want to lose grandma."

"How long can she lie in there?"

Do we have to wait until Bai Tan is old before waking him up?

"More than 200 years."

"This is enough to lie down until the end of Bai Tan's life." Wei Duan also couldn't understand, and complained sharply in his mind.

"Then why are you here today?"

"I'm getting married soon, shouldn't I come and see her old man?" With a smile on his face, Bai Tan swept away the sadness of the previous few minutes.

Wen Ren Jue rarely sees negative emotions for too long in him, Bai Tan's tenacity is reflected in this point, people who stay with him rarely feel pessimistic, because he can always adjust his mood as quickly as possible and affect those around you.

Like, the warm spring breeze and the never-ending sun.

"Why..." After a pause, Wen Ren Jue still asked, "You want to tell me this?"

Smiling and shaking his head, Bai Tan didn't answer, turned around, and looked at the life box tenderly again.

Wen Ren Jue was silent behind him for a while, then said softly: "I'll wait for you at the door first."

At this time, I believe Bai Tan still has a lot to say to the old man alone.

"En." Bai Tan replied without looking back.

Wen Renjue took two steps back before turning around and going out, there were no stewards around Bai Tan in the corridor, Hei Hu stood upright, seeing him coming out, his eyes moved slightly.

Wen Ren Jue walked straight forward, and Hei Hu waited for a while before leading others to follow.

After confirming that the location was safe, Wen Renjue said in a deep voice, "What's going on with Antang?"

"The genus Rat has sent the information." Heihu bent down and handed over a white paper full of words, and at the same time said succinctly: "There are not many people sleeping in this Antang, but each of them is very important. Antang was received by the Bai family. It is under the direct management of the Patriarch, so there are not many opportunities for Bai Tan to come here."

Wen Renjue frowned after reading the relevant content at a glance.

Heihu stood aside, recalling Shuyi's explanation, and asked aloud, "Mr. Shu asked you whether the wedding ceremony should be held on Jinwu or Earth."

"What's your idea?" Wen Renjue tore up the paper casually.

Heihu thought for a while, "There will still be some people left on the interstellar human side to film some rituals. If they are placed on the earth, they must be allowed to enter, but if they are placed on the Golden Crow..." Not all the descendants of the gods migrated from the earth. In the interstellar world, for the race ruled by the kingship, the one who married this time is the king's wife after all. If you can't see it from the earth, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the common people to explain it.

"After Bai Tan arrives at the Golden Crow, we will hold a dinner party directly." Wen Renjue didn't have the idea of ​​rules and regulations in his mind, he just wanted to avoid all possible troubles, "Synchronize to the earth, as for those cumbersome ideas of worshiping halls..."

Heihu was embarrassed, and he didn't know where Wang knew these detailed plans.

There are indeed restless people in Wang Yu, such as Lan An, Zhu Ge, etc., who are busy making small steps in the marriage game, but they also know that Wang won't play with them.

"Who would have thought that I could play the whole set in the future."

"Yes." Heihu lowered his head, thinking that Wang not only knew about it, but also held his bloody revenge!

"Where is Young Master Bai?"

"You guys step back first, I'll wait for him to come out." After taking a cigarette from the guard who followed him, Wen Ren Jue finally had a chance to smoke one and light it up. He took a deep breath and exhaled it, looking at the lingering smoke, Obviously have other ideas.
