In Master Wei 's room.
The old man was half lying on the bed, looking sideways at the man who had suddenly barged into the room.
The other party was somewhat embarrassed. His body, sitting on the wooden stool, was moving back and forth uneasily. His gaze was also somewhat wandering, and he did not dare to look at the old man's gaze.
"Your Excellency didn't come late at night just to sit here for a night, did he?" The old man looked at him like this and suddenly asked with a smile.
When the visitor heard this, he gritted his teeth and asked for the first time, "I heard them say that Sir is an extraordinary person."
"Amazing?" Hearing this, Master Wei smiled faintly and did not comment. "If that's what you think, then so be it."
"Definitely." The man nodded his head repeatedly. After all, he was someone who could fight against the Scarlet Firmament Sect's immortals. It seemed that he was also an immortal. If even an immortal wasn't considered formidable, then no one in this world would be able to afford this word in a man's cognition.
"Actually, I want to ask you a question." The man said.
"I know everything."
Master Wei's answer was naturally extremely sincere, but the man who had received such an answer had a strange expression on his face.
It seemed to be a strange combination of hope and fear.
He was silent for a few breaths before asking, "Sir, do you know where people will go after they die?"
This question exceeded the old man's expectations.
He paused for a moment and asked, "Why do you ask this question?"
The man thought for a moment and his eyes turned red. His lips started to tremble, causing his voice to tremble.
"I'm just…"
"I just want to know, what exactly is death?"
'"Aren't they here? Didn't they say that if a person died, they would go to the Underworld, where there are bulls and horses, and there are judges of the Yama Realm. After drinking the Meng Grandma Soup, they can reincarnate and return to the mortal world."
The man was a little excited, his words seemed to be somewhat incoherent, his voice from low to high, from high to lonely, until it was slightly inaudible.
Seemingly aware of his own misdemeanor, the man's head suddenly lowered, "I just can't bear to part with them. I just feel that people with good intentions are clearly living in front of me."
"We said we were going to Qizhou… to marry the prettiest daughter-in-law… but all of a sudden, they weren't here…"
After saying this, the man's eyes finally couldn't stop the surging of things, and his voice became choked, difficult, and difficult to continue. However, he continued, using all of his strength to continue.
"I just want to know if all of this is true, then as long as I'm alive, does that mean that we'll meet again, even if it's only possible?"
The old man looked at the man and thought for a moment. Finally, after more than ten breaths of time, he spoke.
"I've had this kind of confusion before."
At that moment, the old man's tone became deep. His eyes flashed, as if he had traveled through countless years and arrived at some distant space-time.
"I have also heard that there is a stone pillar called the Heavenly Pillar, a divine gate called the Sect Cloth, and a divine beast called Lu Wu at the entrance."
"Rumor has it that the Heavenly Pillar connects this world to the Immortal Palace and the Ghost Sect to the Underworld."
"If an immortal who has attained the Dao goes there, Lu Wu will give him the final trial. The immortal who passes will be carried to the Heavenly Palace by Lu Wu and become a True Immortal. Those who fail will be demoted to the mortal realm and continue their training."
'"A dead undead will also be drawn to that place. Lu Wu will sniff the scent of the heroic soul. Then, he will eat the evil from his soul, leaving behind the goodness from his soul. Then, he will release the ghost soul to the Underworld and reincarnate."
"You and I are usually unwilling to accept the departure of people we cherish, so I have been there before. I want to find her soul, at least know where she will go in her next life."
The man listened very seriously, but the old man stopped at that moment. The man hurriedly asked, "Did you find it? Is there really such a thing?"
At this time, the man's eyes flashed with hope.
Naturally, he did not have the ability to cross the hundred thousand mountains occupied by the demons to reach the legendary Kunlun Immortal Mountain. However, he was still eager to receive an affirmative answer from the old man. At the very least, this could make him feel slightly at ease.
The old man took a deep look at the man at that time. He measured the situation in his heart for a while before finally deciding to tell the truth.
Thus, the old man shook his head and said, "I saw the towering sky pillar, but I could not find the so-called Lu Wu, nor could I find the sect's Ghost Sect."
The flames in the man's eyes immediately extinguished.
He didn't collapse like a deflated airbag.
He sighed and said, "So, the legends are all lies…"
"Lao Lu, Xiao Weizi, will Chengdu have another life? They will never appear in front of me again … Can't they go to Qi Province, earn a lot of money and get a wife? Boss can't go to the starry sky, and no starlight will look at me anymore …"
As the man spoke, he suddenly laughed. However, that clearly smiling expression revealed an indescribable but real sorrow.
The old man fell silent again. He was not feeling the same sorrow. He was just hesitating again, hesitating to tell the man the crueler truth behind this.
However, just as he was hesitating, the man reached out to wipe the tears from the corner of his eyes. Then, he suddenly stood up.
Before the old man could react, the seven-foot-tall man knelt down in front of the old man.
"Teacher, teach me!" He said loudly, and before his tears could run out, a raging flame ignited in his eyes.
It was anger, anger that devoured everything.
"Teach you? Teach you what?" The old man asked.
"Sir knows." The man replied with a sincere and anxious gaze.
The old man shook his head and said, "I can't teach you."
"Why? Sir is so powerful. There must be a way to teach me. I can be a cow and a horse for you. As long as I can avenge boss and the others, I am willing to do anything!" The man said eagerly, but he was stunned again when he finished his sentence. He used his brain, which was not bright enough, to think carefully about the passages that Mr. Shuo had told him. Then he hurriedly said, "Sir, don't worry, I am just taking revenge. I will definitely not harm any innocent people."
Before he could finish his sentence, Master Wei interrupted him.
The old man shook his head and said, "I'm not worried about this. I'm not as pedantic as those bald men. I advise you to let go of the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot. I won't teach you because you can't carry something on your back."
"I…" Hearing this, the man immediately saw hope and was about to say something eagerly.
However, he was interrupted by the old man just as he spoke.
"I can't teach you, but I can find someone to teach you, but you have to be prepared, because from now on you need…"
"I can do anything I want!" Seeing the hopeful man again, he anxiously expressed his determination.
The old man smiled bitterly. In the end, he did not have the mood to continue. He sighed and said, "Alright then, you have to be obedient when you go there. Someone will tell you what to do."
"Where? Where?" The man was still a little confused.
"We'll know when we get there." After the old man finished speaking, a dazzling white light suddenly burst out from the huge wooden box at the side of the room, enveloping the man. The man let out a cry of alarm, and in the next moment, his body actually disappeared out of thin air, as if he had never appeared here before.
At that time, the old man looked at the empty room and took out something from his bosom. He placed it in front of him and carefully sized it up for a while. Suddenly, he sighed and said, "I didn't expect this karma to fall on you in the end. Whether it's a blessing or a curse depends on your good fortune."
That thing was a shard of silver.
A piece of silver that Zhen Yue had rewarded the old man with…
