When they walked out of the cave, the sky had darkened.
The night here is completely different from the periphery of the star field. You can see the surrounding scene at night even if there is no moonlight. The sky seemed to be covered by dark clouds, the light just became dim, and the gloomy sky seemed to rain. But this is not the case. Not only will it not rain, but it will remain gloomy until dawn.
Liu Yue was obviously not the first time to attend the bonfire banquet. She was very familiar with the place of the banquet and walked forward with Han Bin.
At this time, Han Bin also noticed that all the closed wooden doors around him were now open. Obviously, all the people left. Seeing this, Han Bin remembered what he had sensed before. There should be many monks seriously injured in this valley. They have no ability to move. Can''t such people go to the campfire banquet?
Liu Yue seemed to see through Han Bin''s mind and said slowly, "Han Daoyou, don''t guess. All these people went to the banquet."
Although he had guessed it for a long time, Han Bin was still surprised when Liu Yue said it. He couldn''t help asking, "is the bonfire banquet here very important to everyone?"
"It''s not very important, but very important," said Liu Yuening. "The slaves here, as long as they have the last breath, must attend the bonfire banquet. For these monks who are dying, it''s also a very happy thing if they can die at the banquet."
Han Bin was stunned and said, "why?"
Liu Yue took a deep breath and said: "The accomplishments of those who can come here are not low. Some friars are even the leader of a sect before their future. If there is no one around them when they die, it''s not too tragic to describe them. Isn''t it a happy thing that all slaves will go to the bonfire banquet and die in front of so many people?"
Hearing this, Han Bin flashed his eyes and said, "are those dead monks dying?"
"Some are, some are not." Liu Yue seemed to know what Han Bin was going to ask, and continued, "you want to ask me, since they are not dead, the dead god is still alive, and they are not really dead, why do they see so much? Right!" she saw Han Bin nodding and smiled bitterly: "If you think so, you are wrong. Before you came, Zhu Shuang should also give you a sealed elixir. These elixirs are extremely overbearing. Once you take them, unless you can break through the renewal level, when you die, the yuan God is also imprisoned in the elixir field and can''t leave at all."
"You also know that once the body dies, the body can''t absorb the air. Even for normal friars, the yuan God can''t stay in the dead body for too long, not to mention our slaves sealed with spiritual power?" Liu Yue sighed heavily and said helplessly, "that''s right. After those friars die, the yuan God will be suffocated alive soon."
"If one day, I can''t escape the barrier of death, I won''t choose such a way of death." Liu Yue raised her head, looked at the dark sky and said in a condensed voice, "just imagine how cruel it is if the flesh dies and the yuan God is still there. She can see everything outside and listen to the voice of the outside world, but she is moving towards death step by step."
"Maybe this is life!"
When Liu Yue said this, her eyes became moist. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. The conversation changed: "well, I won''t say more about these unhappy things. I''d better say some happy things!" she took a deep breath and quickly said as if she had opened the conversation box: "All slaves who come here will hold a bonfire banquet on the first day. One is to welcome each other into the big family, and the other is to pray for him and hope that they can live forever."
"Of course, every monk can be the protagonist of such a banquet twice. Unfortunately, he can attend it in person for the first time, but he can only be carried by others for the second time." Liu Yue said here, glanced at Han Bin, and the conversation changed, "Han Daoyou, don''t think about it. As you guessed, the second time is death."
"I remember my father once told me when I was not a immortal. For everyone, there are three major events in his life, the first is birth, the second is marriage, and the third is death. Many people may have given up the middle step, and many people have extended the last step, but the first and third steps must be experienced, even the powerful ancient gods , isn''t there a day of death? It''s just sooner or later. "
These words were not loud, but words like a dagger stabbed into Han Bin''s heart.
Before Han Bin came here, he couldn''t imagine that a woman who had only broken renewal cultivation could say such things that could see through life. Suddenly, Han Bin felt that everything here was a true portrayal, or that what happened in the world was infinitely reduced in this valley, which was so real and terrible.
Liu Yue saw what Han Bin was thinking and didn''t bother until Han Bin sighed heavily. "Han Daoyou, if you want to improve your accomplishments, if you want to increase your perception, if you want to stay here or leave. I hope you can attend such a banquet more times in the future, you can definitely speed up your perception..."
Even if Liu Yue didn''t say it, Han Bin would do it. He hugged his fist and said, "thank you, Taoist friends."
Liu Yue smiled. Although she was smiling, her smile was so desolate, as if she had unspeakable pain in her heart.
After walking for about half an hour, the valley suddenly took a big turn. When I walked through the bend Valley, there was fire in front of me and half the sky was red.
It is located in the center of the valley. Perhaps in order to shorten the distance for all monks, the campfire banquet was selected here. On the ground of the valley, there was a huge bonfire, which was more than ten feet long. The flames danced in the air, as if they released their inner anger and dissatisfaction towards the sky.
All the monks in the valley arrived. At a glance, there were more than 10000 people.
These monks wore the same clothes. Perhaps they all changed clean clothes for their respect for the protagonist of the campfire. The same is true even for those monks lying on stretchers and dying. These people gathered around the campfire, or sat on the ground, but got up and danced, or gathered together and whispered their hearts.
In short, everyone has a smile on his face, a smile from his heart.
When Liu Yue came to the crowd with Han Bin, almost everyone stood up except the friar who was lying on the stretcher and couldn''t get up. Then face Han Bin and bow your hands. Every friar will encounter this bow ceremony countless times in his life, but it has a completely different meaning for every slave who comes here for the first time.
Because everyone has never seen such a shocking and heavy gift.
The moment they saluted, Han Bin clearly saw that when an old man got up, his legs trembled constantly. Through the light, you can clearly see that his legs are red with blood. The blood is flowing out quickly and dyeing his pants red. But even so, he stood and saluted under the great pain. This gift seems very light, but it is extremely heavy.
The old man is not the only one in the crowd. There were many monks who stood up when they could not get up. What are they willing to do for? Not for natural materials and land treasures, not for climbing power and attaching value, just this simple gift.
A breeze blows, and the smell of blood reverberates in the valley. Even cold-blooded people without feelings will be moved.
Han binche was completely moved. Unconsciously, his eyes were wet. Then a line of tears fell from his cheeks.
At this time, the old man with seriously injured legs suddenly said, "little brother, what are you crying about? It''s also a kind of fate that we can meet here. We should be happy." he didn''t have a big voice, but he was very kind, as if the elders were talking to the younger generation. It sounded very comfortable.
Hearing this, Han Bin couldn''t stop his tears any more. He choked and said, "Taoist friend, you''re right. You should be happy."
The old man smiled and walked slowly towards Han Bin. As he walked, he smiled and said, "that''s right. Come on, let''s celebrate the campfire feast..." when he walked, he affected the injury on his leg, and the blood flowed faster. Every step left a blood red footprint on the ground.
Han Bin quickly stepped forward, held the old man and said, "you have a wound in your leg, don''t walk..."
The old man smiled, waved his hand and said, "today is such a happy day, even if the legs are lame, it''s worth it..." said, took out a poor Futon from the storage bag and put it in the place, and said: "little brother, sit down! From today on, you are one of us. There are many things to know. I''ll tell brother Wang one by one..."
Han Bin nodded heavily and said, "thank you."
The old man waved and said to Liu Yue: "come and sit together!"
Liu Yue walked a few steps to the old man, took out two futons from the storage bag and said, "Uncle Zhang, you''re not feeling well. Sit down quickly! Otherwise, you''ll hurt your muscles and bones. If you want to walk in the future, you''ll have to be supported."
Uncle Zhang laughed and said, "never mind, I know. I''m comfortable to see everyone happy..." after that, he said to the crowd, "don''t stand, all of you sit down!"
After listening, they all took out futons and sat down around the campfire.
From the situation just now, we can see that Zhang Bo has a high status among slaves. When everyone looks at him, they can''t express their respect.
After sitting down, Liu Yue said to Han Bin, "Uncle Zhang is very kind and the earliest of us. It is said that he has been here for tens of thousands of years. Usually, he will not only teach you some things, but also summarize the experience of cultivation and tell you. What I told you earlier was told by Uncle Zhang. Later, he will tell you in person..."
Hearing this, Han Bin''s eyes at Zhang Bo also became respectful. It''s really great that the other party can selflessly contribute. However, what Han Bin couldn''t think of is still behind.
Liu Yue sighed and continued to preach: "Do you know how Uncle Zhang''s leg was hurt? He didn''t do it himself, but to save others. Remember that it was a light rain and autumn, all the medicinal materials had to be harvested and put into the wooden box. A monk who had just come here delayed a little time because he was not proficient. Unexpectedly, when the servant scorpion saw it, he whipped her with a whip and beat her to death. At this time , Zhang Bo rushed over, pushed away the scorpion, and asked the slaves who had finished harvesting the herbs to help collect the remaining herbs. "
"The friar was saved and was not punished. However, the servant scorpion vented his anger on Zhang Bo, tied him to a stake, and pumped nearly a hundred whips into the meat. Although Zhang Bo was not killed, all his legs were broken. If a brother hadn''t risked his life, he would have saved some medicinal fragments and applied them to Zhang Bo, even if Zhang Bo didn''t die, his leg would be broken It''s useless. "
