Chapter 1087 Thunder Punishment from Heaven

Hu Zi and I both stared with eyes wide open, looking at the mysterious rune on the rock wall in shock.

At this moment, I only felt the sound of thunder constantly exploding in my mind, and under the sound of thunder, there was another sound.

That sound... seemed like an immortal teaching, or like a person muttering.

In short, it was mysterious and gave people a... very mysterious feeling.

"Qian Yu, did you hear anything?" Hu Zi swallowed his saliva with a "gulp", looked at me and asked.

I shook my head and said, "No."

"Then did you remember it?" Hu Zi asked again.

I nodded: "I remember it."

"You remember it?" Hu Zi was startled, then said in surprise: "Damn, why can't I remember it? It's like... this rune has no form at all, it's just a concrete symbol, I can't even remember its appearance."

Hu Zi's words made me frown.

In my eyes, this rune is mysterious and exudes a mysterious power, there is nothing else.

But Hu Zi, actually said that he can't remember the appearance of this rune?

How is this possible?

"Hehe." Suddenly, the being in the coffin let out a low laugh: "This is an immortal text. Only those with great luck can comprehend it. Although you have the White Tiger Bloodshed Fate, and your aura is extraordinary, it is just the White Tiger Bloodshed Fate after all. Compared with the Heaven's Pardon Fate, one is in heaven and the other is underground. So it is normal that you cannot comprehend it."

"Oh my god, who are you looking down on?" Hu Zi was unhappy. He stared with his eyes wide open, as if he would not stop until he wrote down this rune.

I shook my head, patted Hu Zi on the shoulder, and said, "Hu Zi, some things cannot be forced. You just need to concentrate on practicing the knife skills that Uncle Cook taught you. If you learn too many things, it will be bad for you."

Hu Zi curled his lips and said nothing, but he did not continue to work hard on this rune. Instead, he went to the side with the pig-killing knife in his arms.

I took a deep breath and then memorized this rune firmly in my heart.

I did not try to feel or comprehend anything, because I knew that this rune was extremely mysterious. This ancestor of the Xu family may have been comprehending it for nearly two thousand years, and he only comprehended a little bit. It is even possible that even he did not comprehend it.

No matter how talented I am, it is impossible for me to comprehend anything in an instant.

I took a deep breath and said to the coffin: "Don't worry, I will keep my promise. However, I am very curious about one thing."

"I still believe what the false emperor said." The coffin spoke, "I know what you are curious about. You just want to know why we have to refine ourselves into living corpses and sleep in coffins."

"That's right." I nodded.

In my opinion, everyone has to die. In this short life, we just need to live wonderfully and leave no regrets.

But some people are reluctant to leave this world, even if they are living corpses or ghosts, they don't want to enter the reincarnation.

"Who doesn't want to live forever? Who doesn't want to...live as long as the heaven and earth, and shine as brightly as the sun and the moon? I am just an ordinary person. Although I practiced the supreme Taoism in my life, I will feel fear when facing death. After all...death represents the end of everything and represents endless darkness. Longevity, on the other hand, has infinite possibilities..."

He paused here, and then continued: "This world is too big and too vast. There are many things that we may not be able to figure out in our lifetime. There are many places that we may not be able to visit in our lifetime. Aren't you... curious about what is in those places you have never been to? , don't you want to know what's going on with those things you haven't figured out? Our lives are too short, and to this world, they are just a flash in the pan. Only by living a long life can we keep thinking and keep going to places we haven't been to. At that time, we will have endless lives, and we will have enough time to think about those problems. One day, we will suddenly understand, and everything will naturally have an answer..."

What he said seemed straightforward, but it was actually very profound. I understood a little, but it seemed that I didn't understand a little, somewhere between understanding and not fully understanding.

As for Hu Zi, he didn't understand anything at all. He looked confused and said, "Sir, the times have changed now. Transportation is very convenient. We don't ride horses anymore. We can take cars and planes. Where can we go? Oh, I won't tell you anymore, you old antique. You won't understand even if I tell you. Just talk nonsense in your coffin."

"..."

After hearing Hu Zi's words, the corners of my mouth twitched, and even Mu Yunxi burst out laughing.

What the Xu family ancestor in the coffin said was just a metaphor.

Those places he had never been to might be the legendary fairyland, things he had never seen, or perhaps the legendary immortals.

As for those questions that I couldn't figure out, it was why the laws of heaven had to rely on this set of laws to operate, and who formulated this set of laws.

Of course, this is my opinion. As for whether he meant this, I don't know. After all, my cultivation level is definitely not comparable to his, and my state of mind is definitely a world away. If my master came, I think he could still argue with him, but I am far from that.

I took a deep breath and didn't continue to argue with him on this topic.

After all, everyone who is obsessed with longevity has his own set of reasons. If you really want to argue, you may not be able to figure it out for a whole day or a whole night.

"I have another question..." I opened my mouth again, pondered for a while and asked: "What is the meaning of the battle of the four elephants?"

As soon as I said this, the whole space fell into silence.

After several minutes, the being in the coffin sighed. However, just as he was about to speak, there was a loud explosion.

Then, smoke and dust rose up. I raised my head suddenly, with a look of shock on my face.

Because just at that moment, a thunderbolt struck directly into the courtyard of the Xu family.

"You guys go." The being in the coffin suddenly spoke, saying, "If you continue to talk, I'm afraid... I will be punished. There are some things that cannot be said."

Hearing this, Mu Yunxi and I looked at each other, nodded, and said no more. We pulled Hu Zi up and flew out of the underground space.

Almost at the moment we flew out, we heard a loud bang, and the Xu family's mansion collapsed, burying the underground space completely.
