That time, after Lansi entered the cave, she cheered from the bottom of her heart, jumped onto the big rock, and sat down in a normal meditation posture. Soon she sensed the message from the elder. As usual, the elder always asked her first: What is the difficulty? In the past, when Lansi felt that her head-bending technique needed further study, she would always point out what she didn't understand about the head-bending technique and ask the elders for advice, and she would always benefit from it. Later, her mood changed, and she confided to the elders about her troubles and troubles in life in the world. The elders always advised her to be patient and wait—the elders’ advice, but Lansi could barely “dry up the swamp” in her heart. major factor in living in that environment.

This time, she still told the elder that her distress had reached the limit of tolerability, but after she told it, the elder did not answer immediately, and Lansi waited for a while before feeling the elder's response. The elder asked her, "Have you not seen me all this time?" This is a sentence that Lansi has never heard for many years. She can't help being surprised and happy. Her answer is: "Can I see you?" When she responded like this, her heart was beating violently and she couldn't help panting. The elder seemed surprised: "Of course, unless you don't want to see me."

Lansi has been communicating with the elder for a long time, and her comprehension ability is also very high. She immediately sensed what the elder meant, as long as she wanted to see him, she could see him. Being able to see the elder was Lansi's idea a few years ago. This idea became stronger and stronger, but she didn't dare to express it to the elder. At this time, she thought that the elder should of course know that she had this idea. of. She immediately responded: "I think so, so much!" Although her response was simple, it was full of admiration, like a child eager to fall into the arms of its mother.

The elder's encouragement encouraged her: "As long as you want, you can see me." Lansi tried her best to calm herself down. She opened her eyes wide at first, but she immediately realized that "seeing" the elder must be the same as "hearing". Eyes don't matter. So she closed her eyes again, but still didn't "see" anything. She recalled the first time she had communicated with the elder, it took three days and three nights, so she slowed down the initial anxiety, tried to calm herself down, and entered into a state of meditation. However, after an unknown amount of time, she still saw nothing. She wanted to cry and said, "I...I..."

Before she could express her feeling that she couldn't see the elder, she felt the elder's sigh: "Ah, you don't have enough strength to see me." For a moment, Lansi didn't understand the meaning of this sentence. Before Lansi could ask, he received a message from the elder: "I can't blame you, I'm afraid no one has the ability to see me anywhere." At that time, Lansi still had a strong feeling that the elder wanted her to think about whether anyone could see his power. Lansi didn't know what kind of strength was needed to see the elder, but it was very strange that at that moment, she thought of Hong Ling.

Maybe that's because she was very impressed by the fact that Hongya had received brain power development. (It was later proved that due to the ability of the blue silk head lowering technique, she could already perceive that Hong Ling's brain activity was extremely strong, so when the elder mentioned the related ability, she immediately thought of Hong Ling.) Lansi also felt that when the elder sent this message, he was extremely helpless and sad. This made Lansi stunned and sad—the elder is the god of the sect, and has the supreme status in Lansi's heart, and because she has actually obtained a lot of head-bending skills from the elder, so she The worship of the elders surpasses the worship of the gods they believe in by believers of all religions in the world.For Lansi, the god of elders really exists with her, and it is not just a belief.

So if there is something that makes the elder feel sad, she naturally has the idea that she can, must, and should do everything for the elder, even sacrifice herself to make the elder no longer sad. This is the relationship between man and God. This kind of unreserved and complete devotion between man and God exists only between man and God, not between man and man. If this kind of phenomenon occurs between people by chance, it only means that between people, one of them must regard the other as a god. This idea of ​​dedicating everything to God is extremely common when God and man actually coexist.In the classics of Christianity, many such examples are recorded. The most famous example is that God asked Abraham's son to be a sacrifice, and Abraham took his son up the mountain without hesitation.

This kind of affection for God continued when God no longer coexisted with people, but only existed in faith. Therefore, if people feel that God really exists, they will still do anything for God very naturally. The reason for fully paying. Because the way of brain activity is different, the feelings produced are completely different-this kind of difference can originally coexist, but there is always one party who wants to impose his own thoughts on the other party, thus causing endless disasters. This kind of spirit of giving and devotion can also play the role of a god after certain thoughts, religions and cultures—not long ago, human beings have seen hundreds of millions of people completely lose their greatness for the gods in their hearts scene.

At that time, Lansi's feelings developed naturally, and the situation was normal. Because after all, she has spent a long time with the god in her mind, not just faith. At that time, her state of mind was quite complicated. On the one hand, she wanted to share the elder's worries so much that she was willing to fully bear the elder's pain; on the other hand, she felt that she was not capable enough—not even able to see the elder. . She thought for a while, and asked the elder first: "Teach me! Teach me how to see you, just like you taught me the head-down technique."

Lansi felt the elder's bitterness even more: "You don't have this ability, I'm afraid there is no one with this ability." This is already the second time the elder said such words, and Lansi also thought of Hong Ling again. Lansi felt sad for her incompetence, and the elder suddenly sighed: "If you can see me, I can come out and be with you." To others, such words are worthless at all, and they will not have any special feelings.But to Lansi's ears, it sounded like five thunderbolts! As long as she came to Baodi and communicated with the elders, she already felt extremely happy and relieved, and felt that only under such circumstances could life be meaningful.It will be even more amazing if we can actually hear the elder's voice further!And being able to see the situation of the elders was something she could never have imagined in her dreams.

As for what kind of situation the elder will be "coming out" and "being together", it is completely beyond Lansi's imagination. At this time, she only felt her heart beating wildly when she received such information from the elder, but she still couldn't imagine . For a moment, Lansi's thoughts were extremely disordered, and it took an unknown amount of time before she could calm down. She first thought of the relationship between the "elder" and "coming out". She thought that after the elder came out, she could be with her—so where is the elder now? No matter where the elder is now, he is in a situation where he cannot come out.So Lansi naturally thought of the legend in the sect: the elder is in retreat, and when the elder is in retreat, he can only communicate with the leader in the treasure land.The elders retreat, and there will be a switch every hundred years. When the switch is once a hundred years—the time is very short. If there is a destiny, you can meet the elders.According to the legend, if you can meet the elders, you can enjoy inexhaustible benefits. As the leader of the sect, if there is any advantage for Lansi, she can reach the status of an elder! This kind of thing that she had never thought of before, and she didn't even dare to think about it, suddenly came to her. She really didn't know how to react. From the thoughts just now, she came to the preliminary conclusion: she just happened to meet the elder. It's a switch! Although she does not need to actually make a sound to communicate with the elder, since her whole body is trembling involuntarily, the message she sends must have that kind of surprise and joy. The time for the switch has come, so I, disciple, have the honor to see you and be close to you?" The elder's response was a terrifying sound, which made Lansi feel as if she had been frozen into a big block of ice for an instant. This situation has never happened before. Lansi didn't understand what the sound meant at all, but she could feel the pain contained in the sound—this kind of pain, compared to the feeling that she felt that she was extremely lonely in the world, like a fish in a dry swamp. The pain is even worse! That kind of sound is simply hissing under extreme pain!A piercing cry of pain! Lansi gasped involuntarily, and called repeatedly: "Elder! Elder! Whatever I can do, just order!" There was a terrible silence after that, and Lansi seemed to feel the echo of the sound just now rippling in the cave. She didn't know what happened at all, and the long silence made her feel very hesitant. She repeatedly sent out requests for clarification from the elders, but there was no reply for a long time. If Lansi hadn't had absolute faith in the elders, she would have entered a state of psychological breakdown and would not be able to survive this period of time. Because she absolutely believes that the elders will never give up on her and stop communicating with her no matter what the situation is, she has the confidence to continue praying—this is a belief that only believers have in the God of religion. Belief occupies a very important position in the history of human thought activities, and most of human thought activities revolve around this kind of belief, but there are various changes in form, and its nature and essence remain the same! After an unknown amount of time, Lansi finally felt the message from the elder again. During the period of time just now, Lansi suffered a lot psychologically, and she survived by relying on her faith.When she received the message from the elder again, she felt the ease and joy of breaking free from death. The message still made Lansi feel the gloomy mood of the elder, and the elder seemed to be talking to himself: "On and off once in a hundred years? Can it come out every hundred years?" Lansi hurriedly responded: "The legend is like this!" The elder laughed helplessly: "A hundred years? Or a million years? Or a hundred million years?" Lansi didn't know what this series of questions about time meant. She just felt that she had never been so close to the elders before—she communicated with the elders before, but she asked the elders for instructions, and the elders gave her instructions.But now she felt that she was indeed talking with the elder, and during the conversation, the distance between her and the elder was getting closer, or the difference in status between her and the elder was getting smaller and smaller. She felt that the elder was like her friend at this time, and he was also a friend who was in great trouble and needed help. She vaguely sensed that the elder seemed to be admiring the "once a hundred years switch", she tentatively asked: "There is no... one hundred years... switch?" For her question, the elder did not answer for a long time. Lansi waited patiently. After a long time, the elder did not answer this question, but asked Lansi: "Where are you now?" Lansi immediately replied: "I am in Treasure Land—as the leader, I can communicate with you in Treasure Land and accept your guidance." The elder continued to ask, "I mean the environment where you are." Lan Si was taken aback for a moment: "It's a cave, and I'm in a cave." The elder asked Lansi a very strange question: "The cave is seventeen degrees west-southwest, where can it lead?" Lansi was puzzled—she was a head-down master, and the head-down master had great powers, but the knowledge she came into contact with all belonged to the category of metaphysics. She suddenly asked her such a specific number, although ordinary people could understand it, but she didn't understand why. She collected herself before answering: "It's dark in the cave, I can't see anything, and I don't have any tools to tell the direction, so..." She immediately felt that the elder was instructing: "Go in the direction I want you to go." Lansi naturally turned around slightly and walked forward. At this time, she didn't know what happened, but she felt that the elder was not only with her, but also had a good feeling that the elder was integrated with her. She walked forward, and when she encountered a stone blocking her way, she bypassed the stone and continued to move forward. She has been here many times, but she has never walked around in the cave like this, and she has no idea how big the cave is. However, the size of the cave was far beyond expectations. She walked forward at least a thousand steps. In the process of walking forward, the elders kept encouraging her: "Go forward, walk forward, try to move forward." Walk!" Finally, after walking more than a thousand steps, there was no way to go, and the front was the cave wall. She told the elder that she could no longer go forward, and the elder asked her to try her best to find a passage that could continue forward. After groping on both sides, after a long time, I found a crack in the mountain, and I could barely move forward, but I squeezed in with difficulty for about 200 meters, and there was no way out. However, Lansi still asked with faith: "Have I been a lot closer to you?" The reason why she asked this was because when she was walking forward just now, she felt that the elder was guiding her to his side. She thought so, and judging from the elder's response, it was obviously close to the truth, because the elder replied: "Indeed, it is near." While Lan Si was overjoyed, she also felt that the elder was very helpless, so she asked again: "Is it still far away?" It took a while for the elder to reply, and this time it was clear that the elder was very excited when he sent the message: "It's not very far, it's not very far... According to my rough calculation, it's about Three kilometers." Lansi couldn't help but yelled, and the whole person jumped up! Elders have the status of gods in her mind, and the distance between humans and gods has always been as far away as heaven and earth, completely unattainable.But now the elder clearly told her that the distance to her was only three kilometers! What an exciting thing! The elder's excitement seemed to be beyond the blue silk: "Three kilometers, I will drive you three kilometers in the mountain, as long as you can get through the three kilometers of the mountain, I can come out—you can make me come out!" At that time, Lansi was dazzled by the excitement, and immediately shouted: "Great! I will do it right away, and immediately open up the mountain!" When I heard Hong Ling talking about the matter here, I couldn't bear it anymore, interrupted him, and had the following rapid conversation with her: "Lan Si told you all this?" "yes." "You believe these words?" "I don't believe it. I think it's an illusion caused by Lansi's religious emotions rising when she is depressed and unable to vent. In fact, there is no such thing as communicating with the elders!" What Hong Ling said was exactly what I thought, so I nodded repeatedly, but Bai Su frowned at this moment and remained silent. Hong Ling continued: "That was my thought before entering the treasure land, and what happened later proved that this thought was wrong." I stared at her, and she said, "You must be patient and listen to me." I know that there must be an astonishing process between Hong Ling not believing Lansi's words and her knowing that she is wrong. It is simply impossible to come from the passage! How high and wide is the passage? After the passage is opened, what kind of monsters does she expect to release?" Hong Ling didn't answer my question, but just made a gesture to me and continued talking on her own.I know that I am too impatient, and I should wait to ask all the questions after listening to Hong Ling's narration. I drank a couple of sips of wine, and I only felt amused in my heart——as a super head-down master, although Lansi has great powers, she doesn't have the magic weapon that can open mountains and crack rocks like in ghost novels, and can open a path in the belly of the mountain. When I was thinking this way, there must have been some expression on my face. Bai Su patted the back of my hand lightly. I looked up at her. When I saw her expression, I was shocked as if I had been electrocuted—— On Bai Su's expression, I saw a sentence: "This is why Lansi needs a huge amount of money." Although I immediately agreed with Bai Su's idea, I still found it extremely unbelievable, so I shook my head involuntarily. At this time, Hong Ling continued to narrate. She said that after Lansi had communicated with the elder in Baodi to this extent, she bid farewell to the elder and left Baodi. When she walked out of the cave and came under the sun again, she felt that what she promised the elder to do immediately was easy to say in Treasure Land just now, but she really wanted to do it, but she didn't know how to do it at all. Lansi only knew that since she had agreed to the elder's task, no matter how difficult it was, she had to do it anyway, not to mention that after she had done it, the elder would be able to come out. She doesn't know at all, or even can't imagine at all, what is "elders can come out", but she is very yearning for the elders to come out, the scene in front of her, she feels that she just wants to complete this matter And living, that is the whole meaning of her life! She herself didn't know how to open a three-kilometer-long passage in the mountainside, and although there were many supernatural heads-down masters in the sect, none of them had such abilities. So she went around looking for people to ask. During this time, she entered the treasure land many times, communicated with the elders, and told the elders: "I am trying to figure it out, and it may take a long time──So far, there is no clue about the matter. .” The elder's answer was: "I can wait as long as I want." Although the elder replied in this way, Lansi could fully understand that the elder had a fervent hope for the enough to come out, and this kind of hope might be stronger than hers. Every time Lansi squeezed into the crevice until the end - where she was the closest to the elder, she knew that the distance between herself and the elder was only three kilometers, but these three kilometers were all rocks - she even Yu didn't think about it, how could the elder be among the rocks in the mountainside?Just thinking about how to pass the three kilometers of obstacles. So she tried harder to ask people, and finally a mining engineer told her that the method of mining could be adopted to open a passage in the rock on the mountainside. Lansi knew that there was a method, of course she was extremely happy, but this method is a typical "knowledge is easier than practice". After knowing the method, it is extremely difficult to put it into practice. First of all, of course, it requires a lot of money. When I heard this, I nodded to Bai Su——Bai Su had already thought that it would take a lot of manpower and material resources to open a passage in the mountainside. Judging from the known geographical environment, it is an unimaginably huge project to use the method of mining to first open the passage to the entrance of Dabaodi. And even though the head-down master has a lofty status, such a mountain-turning project will inevitably involve the sovereignty of the country, and it is simply beyond the capabilities of individuals or sects. But Lan Si is obviously working hard-her first move is to raise funds, and Tang Dadan's 20 billion pounds is her goal.And she obviously has some ideas about the operation of opening up the mountainside, knowing that 20 billion pounds may not be enough, so Tang Dadan needs to earn more money for her. Tang Dadan actually complied with Lansi's request, joined forces with international financial adventurers, set off a financial storm, and made profits from it. As Lansi continued to communicate with the elder, she begged the elder to give her strength. During this process, there was a phenomenon worth noting. The elder replied: "I can't give you strength, but I can only give you confidence." Of course, Lansi has great confidence in the elder, but the elder sighed: "It's a pity that you don't have the ability to see me, otherwise your confidence will be stronger." When the elder sighed, Lansi thought of Hong Ling again, and she asked, "Is it possible that people with abnormal brain activity can see you?" The elder replied, "I'm not sure—you can take him here to try." Lansi hesitated: "But she is not from our sect." The elder laughed loudly: "I am an elder, I am the sect, and I just let him join the sect." Lansi also laughed—laughing at her stupidity, how could she not have thought of this point: Although the elder is in retreat, the elder is always the supreme ruler of the sect, so of course he can decide to let Hong Ling enter the treasure land. When Lansi mentioned this to Hongling, the two hadn't entered the treasure land yet.Lansi asked Hong Ling: "The elder specially allows you to enter the treasure land like me after joining the sect, you can communicate with the elder, and you can master the highest mystery of the head-bending technique!" At this time, Hong Ling didn't trust Lan Si's narration at all. She had already shaken it countless times, but Lan Si was just narrating on her own and didn't pay attention to Hong Ling's reaction. Hong Ling feels that Lansi is not deceiving her, she feels that Lansi is under the control of a religious fanaticism, and has hallucinations--of course, the hallucinators themselves cannot tell what is an illusion and what is a fact. But Hong Ling was very sober at that time, she sympathized with Lan Si's situation, and she didn't know how to make Lan Si come out of the hallucination. She said to Lansi: "Do you think that I can not only communicate with the elders, but also see the elders when I enter the treasure land?" Lansi said: "I can't be sure, but because of your strong brain activity, I hope you can see it." Hong Ling was helpless: "Even if I can see it, I can't make you see it, so what's the use?" Just talking like this already made Lan Si excited, she said: "You can tell me what you see when you see it. Although I can't see it myself, I am very... very satisfied, very satisfied." Of course, Hong Ling couldn't understand Lan Si's mood at all—this mood was like that of an orphan longing to see his parents.When I heard Hong Ling narrate this point, I wondered: Could it be because Lansi is an orphan and her parents’ relationship is so strange, so her feelings for the elders, apart from religious worship, More orphans' admiration for their parents?Under such complex emotions, the illusion produced is of course more realistic. Hong Ling didn't think so much at the time, she just thought that since Lan Si wanted her to help, she would do her best, and it would not be too late to tell Lan Si that everything was just an illusion after she felt nothing when she entered the treasure land. So Hong Ling said at the time: "I promise to work hard, but I can't guarantee that I will be able to see the elder." Lansi's answer was unreasonably excited: "You will see it, you will definitely see it!" Of course Hong Ling didn't argue with Lan Si, and Lan Si took Hong Ling into the treasure land. When she arrived in the dark cave, Hong Ling already knew about the communication between Lan Si and the elder. On that rock, she and Lan Si sat side by side. What made Hong Ling tremble suddenly was that she sat down not long ago. , she felt the communication between Lansi and the elder—she could not only "hear" the elder, but also "hear" Lansi, it was as if the elder and Lansi were talking in front of her, and she herself could also listen to it at any time. Join the conversation. This is an extremely strange feeling, Hong Ling can't help but shake!
