128. Chapter 48: Birth, old age, sickness and death

Although I was lying in the sleeping bag, this position was still a bit awkward.

I coughed and said in a low voice: Can you go down first? This is a bit like that.

I didn't finish the following words, and Wu Niang understood what I meant. She smiled and turned to her side and lay opposite me, staring at me with her eyes.

There will be people guarding you all night, and I don’t know who is guarding you outside now. I can only speak in a low voice and ensure that you won’t be heard by people outside.

I did have questions in my stomach and wanted to ask Wu Niang for answers, so I went straight to the point and said: You asked me to kill five old thorns, but I only killed four. The Ghost Seven said, if we kill one more, we will die. Is this true or false?

"Fake." Wu Niang answered me without thinking: That old guy is lying to you, the five old trench must be killed. You can only truly enter the ghost road after you cross the trench, and the five old trenchers are the guardians of the ghost road gate. If a few people go to the ghost road, a few old trenchers will fly over. All you have to do is kill all the old trenchers, kill them and drink their blood. If you have their blood on your body, you will be relatively smooth along the way, but if you are not finished, you will all die in it.

I understand what Wu Niang means. These five pisses actually represent the five of us. They die and we live.

I said hurriedly: What should I do now? We only killed four old pirates. Does that prove that one of us will die in it?

"It's true, but you don't have to worry. None of you will die. As for why you can't tell you now." Wu Niang smiled and continued: Actually, I'm here to tell you another secret.

I feel relieved when I hear that none of us will die. As for the reason, I am too lazy to ask, because there are so many things I don’t know now. There are not many more ones, and there are not many less ones.

In comparison, I want to know more about what secret Wu Niang will bring to me this time.

So I asked her what secrets there were.

Wu Niang smiled charmingly, raised a finger and pointed her lips and said: If you kiss me, I will tell you, I won’t say it if I don’t kiss you.

After saying that, she didn't forget to give me a charming look.

I almost sprayed out a mouthful of old blood, and I felt that the Wu Niang in front of me was really abnormal!

I was suspicious in my heart, could Wu Niang really have schizophrenia?

"Do you kiss me?" Seeing that I didn't say anything, Wu Niang thought it was not intimidating enough, and finally said: This secret is related to the life and death of your group, you must consider it clearly.

Facing such a Wu Niang, I really have no choice but to bite the bullet and say hello.

Wu Niang couldn't wait to raise her head, closed her eyes and pouted and said: It's only necessary to kiss, but not to kiss.

We bought a single tent, which is not crowded when sleeping alone, but if two people sleep together, there is obviously no extra space. Now Wu Niang is lying in, almost saying that she is close to my body.

Looking at my face that was so close, I became a little at a loss for a moment.

To be honest, I have never been in love since I was a child, let alone kissing me. Now I am going to kiss Wu Niang in a confused manner, which is considered as giving out my first kiss.

Then I thought, I was not afraid of a young lady, but I was afraid of a stinky girl.

Thinking of this, I immediately felt relieved, raised my head and kissed Wu Niang in the mouth.

Having said that, I was still a little scared. My mouth only touched Wu Niang's lips, like a dragonfly squirting water. After a click, I quickly moved it away.

Wu Niang opened her eyes, blinked and said: Is that over?

I was a little embarrassed and asked with a blushing face: What if it is?

"You are so stupid." Wu Niang touched her lips, then smiled.

The atmosphere was a bit weird. I hurriedly changed the topic and asked Wu Niang what the secret was.

Speaking of the important matter, Wu Niang also put away her smile and said: Alang, do you know what the most painful thing in the world is?

"Being deceived." I thought about it for a while and said such an answer. Death may not be scary for me, but what is scary is that I was deceived again and again.

Wu Niang smiled, her smile full of pity, as if she was pitying my ignorance. She said: Don't worry, Alang, you will not be deceived after this time.

Then, Wu Niang said: The most painful thing in the world is not being deceived, but four experiences that humans can never resist.

"These four experiences are very simple, even children aged five or six know about them." Wu Niang said: "It is called birth, old age, sickness and death."

Birth, old age, sickness and death are indeed four irresistible experiences for the world.

When you are born in the world, you will experience all kinds of pain. Some pain makes you feel unrestrained, and some pain makes you almost collapsed. Some people are born to atone for their sins, and some are born to change the world, but they don’t know whether they are right or wrong. This is the first pain in the world, and it is also life.

It is always something that everyone cannot resist. Whether it is plants, animals or humans, they will grow old. When you find that you have more wrinkles, your appearance changes, and your hair turns white, you will grow old. In ancient times, there were many emperors who would use money to exchange for immortality. This is impossible because people cannot resist aging. This is the second pain in the world, and it is also old.

The disease comes like a mountain. When you fall ill, you will realize how wonderful the world is. When you fall ill, you will know how important it is to cherish your body. You cannot resist the disease. It may appear suddenly, or it may be that you accumulate over time. The process of illness is painful, just like you are watching your life enter the countdown. This is the second pain in the world, and it is also a disease.

Natural disasters and man-made disasters are inevitable. A person's death is sometimes lighter than a feather, and sometimes heavier than Mount Tai. A person's life will eventually come to an end, and the end is the word "death". Before you die, you will find how happy it is to live. Money, status, fame and fortune are not important at that moment. This is the fourth greatest pain in the world, and it is also death.

I was silent and didn't speak.

In fact, this is indeed the most painful thing in the world.

I'm working hard, looking for a ghost road thousands of miles away? Isn't I trying to resist death and return to a normal life?

But I don’t understand what Wu Niang is meant to say these things. Could it be that I can only give me some insight into the four major hardships in the world?

Wu Niang seemed to see my doubts. She gave me a look of peace and calmness, and then said: From birth to old age, then old age to illness, then from illness to death. This is an experience, a lifelong experience of a person. The place you are looking for is the underworld, and the place you are going to be called the ghost road. The biggest secret in the ghost road is these four experiences.

"If you want to reach the last place, you must experience birth, old age, sickness and death in the ghost road. If you survive successfully, it will prove that you have succeeded."

I suddenly thought of those seven photos. Four of the seven photos seem to represent the link of birth, old age, sickness and death. Could it be that the person who gave me the photos really meant to remind me of birth, old age, sickness and death in the ghost road?

I'm a little anxious and want to know what we should do next.

It is certain that Gui Qi is lying to us. This old guy hasn't been holding back since the beginning, and he became even more presumptuous when he arrived at the ghost road. It will definitely not be possible to rely on his words. All my hopes are on Wu Niang.

Wu Niang looked at me and said in a gentle tone: Alang, all I can do is remind you that the next road will be based on you.

I nodded and waited for Wu Niang to continue talking.

Wu Niang pondered for a moment and said: Tomorrow you will reach the first level of birth, old age, sickness and death, the Valley of Life. You must remember that after you reach the Valley of Life, you cannot go straight forward, but you must walk halfway and then exit again. In this way, you can turn back three times to form three in and three out before you can move to the Valley of Life again.

"The one who takes the postgraduate entrance examination in Shengren Valley is Sheng. The only thing that the five of you are normal is Fang Xiang. After you arrive in Shengren Valley, you will encounter a monster. The monster is very powerful, but you must stop and only let Fang Xiang face that monster alone. Because only in this way can you successfully crack the life of birth, old age, sickness and death, and only in this way can you leave Shengren Valley!"

Fang Xiang is indeed the only normal person in our team, and perhaps only he can withstand this level of test.

"Fang Xiang is your friend, you should believe him." Wu Niang seemed to see my concerns, she reached out and touched my cheek and said softly.

I nodded and didn't continue to speak.

Wu Niang sighed and continued: You are sleepy, keep going. After tomorrow, everything will be fine.

Wu Niang didn't say anything, and I didn't continue asking. She said okay, and then she lay down and closed her eyes.

On my back, I was still under pressure from more than three hundred souls. This pressure was invisible, like an invisible mountain pressing on me. All I could do was not move, waiting for this force to gradually disappear.

Wu Niang's hand climbed up to my back again and gently stroked it. I don't know if it was an illusion or something, but the back that was touched by Wu Niang felt a little chill, and the invisible pressure became much smaller in an instant.

The next morning, when I woke up, I was the only one left in the tent, and I thought Wu Niang should leave.

Thinking back to what Wu Niang said to me yesterday and that I kissed her, it was still like a dream.

After putting on my clothes, I walked out of the tent and unexpectedly found that the pressure on my back had disappeared. Perhaps it was because I had eliminated it over time, or perhaps it was Wu Niang's credit for last night.

As soon as I walked out of the tent, I saw Fang Xiang and others packing things. When Fang Xiang saw me coming out, he hurried over and asked me how I felt.

I said it was ready and I could continue on the road.

Fang Xiang nodded and said with a lip: Let's change the bag, I carry yours, you carry mine, so that we can both be fine.

There are more than 300 paper-tied people in my bag. When I encounter Yin Qi, I will inexplicably boost the pressure and cannot carry it on my back. The only way is to exchange it for a while, so that we can all be fine.

So I didn't insist and exchanged the mountaineering bag with Fang Xiang.

When I saw Gui Qi, I was so angry that my teeth were itchy. This old guy was definitely not that simple.

According to Wu Niang's words, Gui Qi was purely a fool to make up the matter of Lao Tzu Youhai. The real version should be the guardian of the ghost road in Wu Niang's mouth. And the reason why this old immortal deceived us was definitely to harm us.

I thought of the words again: Be careful to guide people, and the person who left me a message is really planning to help me.

As for what the purpose of the old man Gui Qi is, I think it should not be as simple as lifting the seal on the paper-cutter.

But I can’t understand what it is. How can it be easier to see through the hearts of a person?

Anyway, the current situation is that we cannot believe everything about Gui Qi's words, nor can we not believe it. As for which sentence he said is true and which sentence is false, it depends on how we judge it.

After a simple instant noodles, we continued on our way.

The most numerous ancient trees in the ghost road are countless ancient trees. The ancient trees grow very densely, and there will be one at almost two or three meters apart. Also, because the ancient trees are particularly tall and thick, the leaves of several trees are uneven and crisscrossed together, making the upper head dense and airtight, and there is no sunlight at all.

Fortunately, we brought enough rosin, otherwise it would be really smeared.

After walking for a while, we suddenly stopped because there was a fork in front of us.
