Because people are much more advanced than them, if you want to go further, you have to ask for titles like courtiers from the emperor.

At this point in the story, the folklore splits up.

Some stories say:

Answer "like", and the five immortals will be able to survive the human calamity and go one step further;

If you answer "not like", you will naturally fail to cross the tribulation, but you will suffer retribution in the future, after all, you ruined its century-old practice.

From this point of view, answering "like" seems to be the safest answer.

However, some stories say that once they can answer "like", the five immortals will return to life and replace the "person" of the answerer.Or, after the Five Immortals go further, they will cause chaos in the countryside.

All in all, the story has evolved to this point, and the taste of "disgusting to win" began to appear.

Thinking of this, Chang Dong smiled treacherously and said, "What is a human being?"

Yes, ordinary people's thinking will only choose between the existing options, but Chang Dong's experience has taught him to choose the third answer.

When Meng Lao questioned him back then, he relied on this to escape the catastrophe.

As soon as Chang Dong finished speaking, infinite light suddenly burst out from behind the yellow-skinned fox, and the light shone into the car in an instant, causing Chang Dong to close his eyes subconsciously, only to find the glare unbearable.

Consciousness is also at this moment, a trance.

When he opened his eyes, the sound of the smooth airflow of the car fell into his ears.

Chang Dong suddenly looked out the car window, and saw that the car had just passed the section of road lined with dense poplar trees.

The dazzling sunlight shot into the car again, like the light suddenly gushing out from behind a fox.

"I just fell asleep?"

"Huh?" Chen Fanglin, who was sitting next to her, was stunned for a moment, keenly aware of something, and asked, "What happened?"

I still want to ask you... Chang Dong complained, he turned his head and glanced at the poplar grove he just passed, with a thoughtful expression.

After a three-kilometer journey, they soon arrived at their destination.

The village in front of me is not big, only about [-] households.

Zhu Le'an's residence, far away from the village, is located in the fish pond to the west of the village.

It should be said that Granny Dao is only Zhu Le'an's part-time job, and her main job is actually "watching the fish pond" to prevent poaching.

Therefore, the appearance of Changdong vehicles is not eye-catching.

In other words, everyone is used to the frequent appearance of vehicles near Zhu Le'an's house.

It is very common to go to the doctor indiscriminately for emergencies.

Chang Dong opened the car door, and the roiling heat wave was like the roar of an autumn tiger, making one feel in a trance.

Chang Dong stepped on the dry land, looked around, and saw a small red brick hut standing beside a huge pond not far away.

There is a pergola outside the house, and the pergola is covered with plastic sheets picked up from advertisements. It looks very poor and dilapidated.

Chang Dong asked the driver to wait under the shade of the tree, and he took Chen Fanglin away on foot.

"Hello grandma!" Chen Fanglin changed his cold expression before approaching, and shouted with a smile all over his face.

Zhu Le'an is an old lady with a wrinkled face. After a summer, her skin is very tanned, and a floral shirt hangs on her body, which sets off her thin figure even more rickety.

She ignored Chen Fanglin, but looked directly at Chang Dong, and said, "Sister-in-law asked me to ask you, what do you think is a human being?"

"Sister-in-law?" Chang Dong was surprised.

Chen Fanglin stared at Chang Dong with wide eyes, his expression full of shock.

Zhu Le'an didn't say anything, just looked at Chang Dong.

Chang Dong thought for a while and said: "It asks me like this. What it wants to hear is definitely not the biological definition of human beings, nor is it human self-praise. Then the rest is my answer."

Zhu Le'an didn't seem to care about the answer at all, she beckoned and said, "Come with me!"

Chang Dong followed, Chen Fanglin wanted to follow, but was driven away by Zhu Le'an when he didn't want to, so he had to give up.

Into the red brick cottage.

There is only a hard couch covered with straw mats, a wooden table with missing legs and bricks, covered with a green vegetable cover, in which you can vaguely see a plate of leftovers and a black bowl. Huge pickles.

A dozen or so flies were buzzing around, making the room feel very messy.

Zhu Le'an found a notebook from under the pillow.

The notebook is for primary school students to write pinyin, but on it there is a ballad or a spell written in a somewhat elegant font stroke by stroke.

"My daughter-in-law doesn't want to learn it, and my daughter-in-law doesn't want to learn it for two days, even if she says it's a bluff. My sister-in-law said that you are different and can learn it, so let me pass it on to you."

Zhu Le'an obviously didn't trust Chang Dong very much, but due to some reasons, he taught Chang Dong the secret of soul calling with a somewhat indifferent attitude.

To be honest, Chang Dong has seen countless versions of this secret in the materials Kipling gave him.

But he still listened carefully.

"At the beginning you can't feel the sister-in-law, but it's okay, just do it, remember, every time you call out the soul, especially don't lose the incense, otherwise the sister-in-law will be angry, and it won't work next time..."

Zhu Le'an rambled on for a long time.

Chang Dong listened carefully, identifying which sentence was the core.

It took a long time before Zhu Le'an closed his mouth.

"Go, don't come." Chang Dong nodded, took out a thick envelope and pressed it on the table: "Incense money for sister-in-law."

Zhu Le'an glanced at the envelope and nodded. He didn't refuse, but he didn't smile much either.

Chang Dong took the pinyin book and returned to the car under Chen Fanglin's suspicious eyes.

After getting into the car, Chang Dong casually handed the notebook that Zhu Le'an had given him to Chen Fanglin, and closed his eyes.

The car turned around, and when passing the poplar road, Chang Dong closed his eyes and fell asleep again, but this time there was no five immortals to ask for the title, which made him a little disappointed.

Along the way, Chang Dong remained silent, causing Chen Fanglin to always look at him suspiciously, as if suspecting that he already knew the truth.

Back at the Yanjing residence, it was already past ten o'clock in the middle of the night.

After Chang Dong had a simple supper, he took a shower and went to bed.
