Section 249 Treasure Hunt
Shen Yue's inferences about Li Wancheng were based on secular human sentiments, which was natural. What Shi Kong said next quickly verified his speculations.
"Li Wancheng saw that the old monk had been looking for experts to discuss spiritual practice. He said that he was taking his companions to a mysterious place where there might be experts. He asked the old monk if he was interested in going together..."
Shi Kong recounted the past events. Although Mrs. Cai was most concerned about whether her son could be saved, she couldn't help but feel sad after hearing this - her husband had never told her about these past events, which was a bit unreasonable.
Judging from Cai Shuzhen’s experience, there might be some ulterior secret in this?!
"I was fearless at that time, so after hearing this, I decided to follow Li Wancheng to have a look."
Shi Kong continued: "Although the other four young people are not very talkative, I finally learned their surnames from Li Wancheng. Among them, there is a tall man named Lin, a stout man named Zhen, and a tall man named Zhen. The dark-skinned one’s surname is He.”
His introduction seemed a bit irrelevant. Cai Shuzhen didn't react when she heard the surname Lin, but when she heard the surnames of the two people behind her, the surprise on her face became more and more intense.
Coco also showed a very strange expression.
Shen Yue didn't realize anything was wrong and couldn't help but ask: "Mrs. Cai, is something wrong?"
Cai Shuzhen looked a little dazed, and finally shook her head, "It's nothing, I just think these last names are weird."
Richard and Shen Yue really didn't know what was so strange about these three people's last names.
Cai Shuzhen looked solemn and said: "Senior Monk, please continue speaking."
Shi Kong glanced at Cai Shuzhen thoughtfully, and continued: "The six of us headed into the mountains until we reached the deep mountains where there are no human traces..."
"Wait a minute." Shen Yue felt something was wrong, "What's the last name of another person?"
There were six people in the group, and Shi Kong only mentioned the surnames of four of them. Except for Shi Kong himself, Shi Kong left out one person.
Shi Kong smiled and said, "The donor is very careful."
After a moment of pause, Shi Kong finally said: "The fifth person who came with Li Wancheng is named Yuan, and his name is Yuan Shanwen."
Shen Yue immediately looked at Cai Shuzhen and found that Cai Shuzhen had no reaction to this person. He couldn't help but feel puzzled.
In his subconscious observation, he felt that Cai Shuzhen seemed to know Lin, Zhen, and He, but now it seemed that Cai Shuzhen had no impression of Yuan Shanwen at all.
What is the reason why Li Wancheng formed a team to find these people? What is the purpose?
Shi Kong did not solve the puzzle directly and continued: "After entering the mountains, Li Wancheng asked Yuan Shanwen - the location has been arrived, you should tell us where exactly it is, right? Yuan Shanwen is not that old, but Looking very mature, he took out a map, pointed at it and said - that thing should be around here, this is what I know, I am not hiding anything from you."
Looking back on the past, Shi Kong said: "The old monk was disappointed when he heard that they were just looking for something. He felt that they believed in folk treasure map legends and came here to dig for treasures. The old monk was five years old at that time. Although he is poisonous, his greed is not serious, and he is not even interested in treasures. He almost wants to leave immediately."
Shen Yue thought to himself, you must not have left, otherwise this script would be over!
As he expected, Shi Kong showed emotion on his face and said: "The old monk has rarely been haunted by things recently, but after all, he still occasionally thinks about the past - if the old monk had left with his sleeves, it might be another world now. Already."
Everyone looked at each other in confusion. Even Shen Yue didn't understand what Shi Kong was talking about this time.
Another world?
What does it mean?
Shi Kong did not explain, but continued to talk about the past, "Li Wancheng saw that the old monk was leaving, so he tried hard to persuade him to stay, saying, "Where can I not practice? This place is quiet and quiet. Although I haven't seen the master for a while, it is not a good place for practice."
Shen Yue thought in his mind that when he thought about Li Wancheng being so flattering to Shi Kong, he probably saw that Shi Kong was very capable and thought that searching for something was very dangerous, so he kept a capable person around him who didn't want to be too fussy.
Shikong whispered: "The old monk found it difficult to refuse the kindness and felt that what Li Wancheng said was reasonable, so he meditated and practiced in the deep mountains. At that time, the old monk had already achieved some cultivation..."
With a self-deprecating smile, Shi Kong said humbly: "So when the old monk was practicing, his mind was not occupied with the object, but he knew that Li Wancheng and the others were busy discussing where the object was all day long. The young man surnamed He even prepared Luoyang Use a shovel to dig down where the hidden object is believed to be."
Shen Yue calculated the age and secretly thought that at that time, the mainland was a bit chaotic, and tomb robberies were also extremely rampant.
The Luoyang shovel is a tomb-digging tool used by tomb robbers. It was originally a relatively unorthodox thing, but now thanks to the Internet, very few people know about it.
"As a result, they dug and searched for a long time, but found nothing except dirt all over their bodies."
Shi Kong shook his head, as if he was disapproving of what Li Wancheng and his men were doing, "The old monk heard them say again, if you still can't find it after a few days of searching, just go back to farming."
Shen Yue's eyelids twitched slightly, thinking to himself that Li Wancheng was now ranked among the world's richest people. If he really farmed, he would definitely not be able to develop. Could it be that it was because of this incident that Li Wancheng became rich?
Shi Kong looked at Shen Yue and said softly: "The old monk thought that Li Wancheng's advice at that time was very good. If a person can understand the way of farming in his life, he can also be successful in practice. In the eyes of the world, Li Wancheng is truly the richest man in the world. , it’s enviable, but I don’t think Li Wancheng can explain the taste of it. If he is asked to choose again, I wonder if Li Wancheng will choose the same way as before? "
Coco felt that the old monk was a little confused about reality - who would choose to farm if they could become rich?
If you ask this question to 100 million people, I'm afraid the answer you'll get is the former.
Shikong pondered for a moment, and finally shook his head, seemingly unable to find an answer, "They searched for another two days, but still found nothing. At that time, my practice had deepened a little. The second night, I felt that they were discussing something, but I didn’t listen to what they were discussing. This is a level of meditation.”
Looking at Shen Yue, Shi Kong said calmly: "If you reach that level, you will find a lot of interesting things that you can't find on ordinary days. You will feel that your heart is very quiet, your breathing is very subtle, and even your breathing will Cut off, you can't bear the emotion, and the five poisons have long since disappeared. When the five poisons are lingering, it is absolutely impossible for you to enter this state. At that time, there is only peace in your heart, but you are still dependent on this world, so you can feel that the world is more A small voice."
Shikong's voice got lower and lower...
When Shen Yue was pondering the meaning of Shi Kong's words, his body suddenly shook and he looked surprised.
Nuan Yu's figure appeared in his mind again.
Nuan Yu is facing away from him!
