C27 Past events
In history, Sima Xiangru and Zhuo Wenjun had settled in Lin Quan at the end, living a life without strife. However, there was a boundary to life so Zhuo Wenjun left first. After his death, Sima Xiangru was left alone with sorrow, and Sima Xiangru had only used two to three years to speak of his fate. He wanted to continue the feelings he had from his previous life and enjoy the endless perfection.
The Underworld back then was very different from the Underworld now. At that time, there were not many people there, and although they had their own responsibilities, they were mostly the jobs of scholars. After Sima Xiangru came to the Underworld, he worked as a poet for a while, saved up some money, and started to look around for Zhuo Wenjun.
However, after asking left and right, Sima Xiangru also did not manage to find Zhuo Wenjun's location, and even specially went to the Underworld's household registration office to check, but still did not find anything.
"At that time, I thought that something went wrong with the Household Registration Office... He even specially took Wen Jun's book < The White Head Song > to search around, but … Sigh … "Until later …" Sima Xiangru stood by the window and sighed.
"Cough, cough." Just as Sima Xiangru was about to continue, Grandma Meng suddenly coughed.
Seeing that, Sima Xiangru's face changed, he seemed to have realized something and kept quiet.
Wan Hei saw that and said unhappily: "You are a bad guy! He couldn't finish the story! I won't be able to sleep! "
When Sima Xiangru heard this, he smiled and said, "Then let Wan Lixing tell you another story. This matter can't be told for the time being …."
Wan Lixing rolled his eyes, this group of elderly people loved to do these kinds of things, and liked to keep people in the dark.
"It's not that I don't want to say it, it's just that you can't say it now. If you can get to the [A] class taxi driver, you might be able to understand the whole thing." Grandma Meng looked at Wan Lixing and said.
Seeing Grandma Meng being so serious, Wan Lixing knew that this was something that most people would not know.
"Forget it, I have another reason to become an A Rank taxi driver." Wan Lixing laughed.
"Then what's the matter with you two? What does Master Sima looking for Zhuo Wenjun have to do with you? " Wan Lixing thought of this question again and asked curiously.
Wan Hur heard this and rushed over. If one story couldn't work, then he would listen to the other. He just hoped that this time, the story wouldn't end midway.
Hearing this, Grandma Meng's face immediately wore a bitter expression as she looked at Sima Xiangru, while Sima Xiangru deliberately avoided looking at him, as if she was pondering about something.
At that time, I discovered that the old man was holding onto Zhuo Wenjun's white head and was searching for someone. I especially liked that white head chant, and wished to trade it for something in exchange. At that time, I was still a small person who had just levelled up to the [C] class and didn't have much to offer, but I felt that being a scholar is one thing, and what's important is the heart. However, I didn't expect that this old man would not give it to me at all.
"It's really normal." After all, the importance of this White-headed Yin to Sima Xiangru could be imagined. After all, this was a poem that Zhuo Wenjun had changed his mind about after he had lost her true heart.
Thinking up to here, Wan Lixing gave Sima Xiangru a disdainful look and said: "Master Sima, you still want to take me in as your concubine! Luckily you changed your mind, or else I would definitely scold you! "
Sima Xiangru coughed slightly, awkwardly waved his hand, and said: "This is all a part of the past, it's all a part of the past, it's all a part of the past, right?
Grandma Meng continued, "If he just didn't change it, I also felt that it wouldn't be a big deal. On the contrary, I would have actually admired him, because after all, it was such an important thing, but at that time, I didn't know if he was stupid, and felt that I had ulterior motives in delaying his search for Zhuo Wenjun. He even suspected that I was going to steal his White Yin1 and forcefully report me to the unit!"
Grandma Meng said while glaring at Sima Xiangru. If looks could kill … Unfortunately, looks could not kill.
Sima Xiangru scoffed, and said: "Who told you to look like a crazy woman at that time! How could I not be suspicious! I originally wanted to leave directly, but then I felt that I should reduce the danger to the Underworld, so I complained to you! I am doing this for the safety of the entire Three Realms! "
"Bullshit!" Grandma Meng retorted succinctly.
The corner of Wan Lixing's mouth twitched. Never would he have thought that the grudge between these two people was like this … However, Wan Lixing also understood that Grandma Meng had a lot more things to say. Otherwise, the two of them wouldn't be like this.
"Grandmother! You hate it too! That's all you can tell a story about! " Wan Hur also heard that Grandma Meng was hiding a lot of things and said unhappily.
Grandma Meng gave a look of surprise and then said helplessly, "It's fine if you don't want to talk about this, but you guys have to remember this. You guys will definitely encounter some things in the future, and you can't tell anyone about these things, at least for the time being. But if one day, you guys get to a high enough level, then you won't have to care about these things …"
Sima Xiangru nodded slightly at the side, and for once, did not refute Grandma Meng.
Wan Lixing fell into deep thought upon hearing this. Since he had come to the Underworld, too many things had happened, but he could only see a corner of everything because of the dense fog, similar to the past situation with Sima Xiangru and the grudge between him and Grandma Meng. If it wasn't for the fact that his current position was not high enough, these two elders might have told him everything.
"I have to climb up one step at a time …" Wan Lixing thought in his heart, the things that he had encountered right now might not be much, but in the long run, if he did not climb up, he would not be able to see the true Three Realms at all.
Seeing the look in Wan Lixing's eyes, Grandma Meng smiled slightly, but no matter from what angle she looked at her smile, it was filled with treachery.
"By the way, how was your harvest today?" Grandma Meng suddenly asked.
Wan Lixing sighed, and said: "The situation is more serious than I thought. I dealt with a total of six incidents today, and if it wasn't for the incident at the end, I think there would have been even more cases …"
The thunder continued, and Sima Xiangru, who was at the side, finally could not hold back his curiosity and asked: "What exactly is going on with your Thunder? "Don't tell me that you were able to awaken a talent just by going to the mortal world. Then, I will be going to the mortal world everyday."
Just as Wan Lixing was about to explain, Grandma Meng said, "If my guess is correct, this is related to the last incident that you mentioned."
Wan Lixing nodded his head, he was also a little worried. It was really inconvenient for him to say something like that, as it would be best if he could control his Inherent Skill with ease and flexibility.
As if she knew what Wan Lixing was thinking, Grandma Meng smiled and said, "I have something good there, you can use it to block the thunder."
Hearing this, Wan Lixing became excited, but he still cautiously looked at Grandma Meng, and said, "Beautiful girl, what request do you have?"
Wan Xiao and Sima Xiangru both pointed their middle fingers at Wan Lixing, denouncing his actions.
Grandma Meng smiled and said, "I originally wanted to take 10,000 from you, but since you're a beauty now, 9,999 will do."
Hearing this, Wan Lixing's face fell, sighing inwardly that this beauty was only worth a dollar.
"Let's not talk about this first. Quickly, tell us about it." Sima Xiangru sat down next to Wan Lixing and asked curiously. Wan hee also came over. He was not very satisfied with the two stories that he had just told, so toddler looked at Wan Lixing like a tiger eyeing its prey, hoping to receive a satisfactory answer.
Seeing that, Wan Lixing pondered for a while, organized his thoughts, and then explained everything.
Ten minutes later, Wan Lixing drank a cup of water and said, "So I have to go save Old Wu tomorrow."
Grandma Meng nodded when she heard this and said, "I think that you might have a slightly different talent, which is why you are able to absorb Lehman … When this matter is over, go and properly calculate it for yourself at Tai Baijinxing's place … "
"As for the Old Wu, you must save them." Sima Xiangru said in a serious tone.
Wan Lixing was startled, of course he had to go and save them, but he did not understand why Sima Xiangru would suddenly mention this so formally.
Grandma Meng saw this and said, "You've just arrived in the Three Realms and don't understand many things. The biggest taboo of the Three Realms is to leave behind karma, especially in other realms. You're originally a member of the Underworld. It's very unfavorable, which is why everyone in the Three Realms who encounters Karma has to immediately go resolve it. "
Wan Lixing nodded his head upon hearing this. When he was young, he had often heard people talk about Karma, and although this thing was very mysterious, it was an existence that the Three Realms could not ignore. Naturally, he did not have the qualifications to cause and effect such a thing.
"Do you want to go alone tomorrow?" Grandma Meng asked.
"I want to go too!" Wan Hur raised his hand and said excitedly.
Wan Lixing patted his head and laughed: "I don't want to be alone, but even if I am the driver of the Three Realms, I can't just casually bring others to the other two realms, right?"
Grandma Meng nodded, but then said, "Actually, it's not impossible. I just need some proof, so I can open it."
Hearing that, Wan Lixing became alert, and said: "Beauty, what's the price?"
As expected, Sima Xiangru and Wan Hee then raised two white middle fingers at Wan Lixing.
Wan Lixing curled his lips, a dollar was still money, he could save as much as he wanted.
Grandma Meng laughed so hard that her mouth could hardly close. "Sure, kid. Since that's the case, I'll give you a kinship price of eight hundred and eight."
Wan Lixing heaved a sigh of relief. Although this price was not cheap, it was still acceptable. Furthermore, maybe in another twenty days, he would have ten million.
"Eight hundred and eighty."
"… …." Say that again! "
Thunder rumbled, and many people outside began to curse. Why was it not raining when there was lightning in the sky?
