Everyone thinks I'm a wealthy doctor's son-in-law

"That depends on your performance."

Lu Ming weighed the Star Soul Bell in his hand, tossed it up slightly, and then caught it and dropped it in his hand. Every time the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox's heart hung in his throat, he was afraid that Lu Ming would accidentally drop the Star Soul Bell on the ground. It was broken on the gravel.

"Don't mess with it, take it, and ask quickly." Nine-tailed Demon Fox urged.

With a satisfied smile, Lu Ming officially started to ask, "What's your name?"

"My name is Nine Tails, this is the name my master gave me." Nine Tails was very cooperative, knowing everything without saying anything.

Lu Ming asked again: "Do you know which floor Princess Longji is in the Jiuyou Pagoda?"

"Yes, it's on the ninth floor."

"Damn it, I'm really afraid of something, it's really on the ninth floor! No, you're only on the second floor, how do you know she's on the ninth floor? You dare lie to me, I'll destroy this star soul bell."

"Don't, don't, I didn't lie to you! My master is Princess Longji, and I am her servant. Back then, I came here with my master. I originally planned to live here in seclusion, but then the villain Lord of the Nether came. , he wanted my master's treasure, but my master refused to do so, so he sealed him with the power of the Nine Nether Pagoda and fell into a deep sleep. Only the star soul bell in the Nine Nether Pagoda could wake him up. After I left, I searched all over the ninth floor but couldn't find it, so I left the ninth floor and went back to the first floor. I found the Star Soul Bell on the first floor, but I couldn't go up."

She was very worried that Lu Ming would destroy the Star Soul Bell, so she didn't dare to hide anything.

Knowing that Jiuwei is Princess Longji's servant, and that Princess Longji was sealed and sleeping on the ninth floor, Lu Ming waved his hand a little depressed, signaling Honglin to let her go.

The entangled body gradually loosened, and as soon as he regained his freedom, Nine Tails rushed towards Lu Ming, trying to snatch the Star Soul Bell, but as Lu Ming lifted the Star Soul Bell high, Nine Tails' footsteps stopped abruptly.

"Let go of you, I'm telling you that I'm not your enemy! Don't think that if I give you face, you can put your nose on it! Just wait for me honestly and answer my questions! When you came with Princess Longji So, can the Lord of the Nether be here?"

Kyuubi was aggrieved, but she didn't dare to act rashly because of Xinghunling.

"From the very beginning, the Lord of the Netherworld has not been sealed here. Besides, he can come and go whenever he wants here, and he doesn't know that it was the one who was paid a thousand dollars who betrayed us and let him know our whereabouts!"

Lu Ming shook his head, "But as far as I know, the timeline is wrong! The Nether Lord returned to the Nine Nether Land not long ago, but you said it was ten thousand years ago."

There is a source for this matter, the mother is the remnant soul of Princess Longji who met outside the city of Water and Fire more than [-] years ago, and knows what happened, but Jiuwei said that Princess Longji fell asleep ten thousand years ago, and the time is not right at all.

"You're so stupid, it seems like you're just lucky to reach the second floor so quickly."

Lu Ming's doubts were met with ridicule by Nine Tails. She turned and pointed to the distance. There was a vortex in the air like a rotating mirror, and she could clearly see the panorama of the first floor of Jiuyou Pagoda. No wonder she knew she was coming in After half a day, they came to the second floor.

"This is the Nine Nether Pagoda, beyond the Three Realms! What is time?"

Nine Tails' question stopped Lu Ming.

What is time?This is a fucking philosophical question, okay?

Lu Ming narrowed his eyes and reprimanded, "Talk to me well."

Nine Tails disdainful, said: "The biggest lie in this world is time! The definition of time pulls everything into an unfair rank. The life of a moth is less than a month, and the life of a human is dozens of years. A fairy’s life is long and endless, but to a moth, what is the difference between its life and a human’s life? What people think of as tens of years is like tens of years to moths.”

A little confused, Lu Ming frowned and stroked his thoughts, carefully reflecting on the meaning of these words.

What time is is indeed a lie. People believe that the sun rises and sets as one day, and this is time!But in the real sense, there is no concept of time at all, it is only defined by human beings, for moths, insects, beasts, plants, all things in the world have their own different 'times'.

Perhaps in the eyes of moths, one day of human beings is equivalent to ten years of humans, perhaps in the eyes of fairies, one day of theirs is equivalent to ten years of human beings, or perhaps in the eyes of those plants, one day of theirs is just a branch blown by the wind. A process of the head...

Thinking further down, Lu Ming felt a little deeper.

"No, why are you talking about such big things with me?" Lu Ming scolded disdainfully: "It means you live a long time?"

Jiuwei is also disdainful, saying: "I just want to tell you that the so-called time of each of the Three Realms is different, not to mention this Nine Nether Land, this place is outside the Three Realms! So, don't use time to define it, The question is over, should you give me the Star Soul Bell?"

"There is one last question, how can I go to the third floor?"

When Lu Ming finished asking, he regretted it. With Kyuubi's IQ, she could stay on the first floor for ten thousand years. How could she know how to get to the third floor.

Sure enough, Kyuubi shook his head, "If I knew, could I stay here?"

"Pretend I didn't say it!" Shrugging his shoulders, Lu Ming restrained his smile and said seriously: "From now on, you must remember every word I said clearly! My name is Lu Ming, and I am here for Princess Longji. Summoning, I am not your enemy, but your savior. I will take you up to the ninth floor of the Jiuyou Pagoda layer by layer, and then use this star soul bell to wake up Princess Longji, but everything before that You have to listen to me, and stop having so many questions..."

"Are you really here to save my master?" Kyuubi asked.

Lu Ming staggered, he felt that there seemed to be a hundred thousand whys in the head of the nine tails.

"Yes, really! Stop asking, start following me now, and when I ask you, talk again."

Lu Ming was a little impatient. After speaking, he turned around and looked at the second floor of Jiuyou Pagoda, while Jiuwei stepped forward to look at Lu Ming in detail.

"It's very ordinary, just you, how could the master summon you to save her." She muttered softly.

Lu Ming heard it, but pretended not to hear it, and looked at it carefully.

This is the second floor of the Jiuyou Pagoda. It is an endless desert, with golden sand everywhere and no end in sight.

Lu Ming knows that even going forward is futile, just like the first floor of the Jiuyou Pagoda, it is endless, and only by understanding the true meaning of this floor can the entrance to the next floor be opened.

But what kind of enlightenment does this endless desert want to give people?

desolate?decadent?Courage, or despair?
Lu Ming's mind was full of thoughts, and he was digging out all the feelings that might be connected with the desert, to see if he could hook up with the meaning he wanted to express.

At this moment, the bored Nine Tails listened to his murmurs and said, "This is the Nine Nether Pagoda, a strange place beyond the Three Realms. The teacher didn't ask the students to guess the questions. The true meaning is the presentation of the order of the heavens and the earth and the laws of the planes. Whether it is a human or a demon, even if it is a stone, the true meaning is different when you come here, so there will be no exact answer, but it depends on the person. Different! No, it varies from object to object.”

Although Jiuwei's words were a bit annoying, they gave Lu Ming a lot of inspiration.

The nine-story restriction of the Nine Nether Pagoda is based on the law and order of the three realms and the laws of the planes. If you want to comprehend, you need enlightenment, not search!It is to realize the truth, not to find the truth.
