System: I am a second-hand dealer in the world of immortality

After Shen Xia ran home all the way, she saw a man and a woman standing in the yard discussing something. They were the original parents.

Can't see face clearly. Shen Xia felt that something was vaguely covering their faces.

"Dad, give me a hug." Shen Xia stepped forward and pulled "father's" trousers. "Father" bent down and picked up Shen Xia. Since he was holding him vertically, Shen Xia's back was facing her "parents", so she could only hear what they were saying.

"There's no time. We can't stay in Changliu Village for too long."

"But what should Xia Xia do?"

"Xia Xia can't come with us. Didn't we agree before? Send her to the village chief's house, and we'll pick her up later."

"No...I'll think about it..."

Shen Xia struggled to turn her head to see clearly what her "parents" looked like, but for some reason her head was fixed and she couldn't move.

"Xia Xia," Shen Xia felt her "mother"'s hand stroking her hair, "Mom really wants to watch you grow up, but it's a pity..."

What's a pity? Just as Shen Xia was about to ask, the scene was frozen again, faded and distorted again.

Shen Xia felt like she was falling from her "father"'s arms, as if she had fallen into a bottomless pit. Then, like a revolving lantern, all the people she met along the way from Changliu Village to Qingyun City flashed before her eyes. Wei Yan, Lin Yueying, Shopkeeper He, Doctor Zhang, He Shiqin, Renda...

In the end, Shen Xia fell heavily on the stone bed. Everything was silent. In the boundless darkness, only Shen Xia was lying on the stone bed. She felt a deep sense of powerlessness, and her head was like a ball of mush. She slowly closed her eyes, thinking that it would be over.

In a daze, Shen Xia seemed to see Lin Yueying's face appear, and heard her say: "Xia Xia, it's time to wake up."

As soon as Shen Xia closed his eyes completely, he felt a dim light appear in his head, the familiar sound of chanting sutras, and the familiar smell of incense. The next moment, Shen Xia felt only clear and clear.

When he opened his eyes again, Shen Xia had returned to the competition venue. At this time, the incense in the incense burner had just finished burning the last section.

Shen Xia didn't seem to have fully recovered from the predicament just now. She slumped on the ground with her arms supporting the ground and gasped for air. The sweat on her forehead had already wet her hair.

What happened, why did those scenes appear, and what exactly were the things that my mother said and the original parents said? Was it Sister Yueying who woke me up in the end? Shen Xia looked up at the sky and thought.

The examiner surnamed Lu also flew up to the competition platform at this time. He observed Shen Xia with a smile for a while and then said to the three of them: "Okay, you three, the meditation time is over. You can tell me what you think. Let me Take a look, let’s start with Zhu Lingying.”

The examiner turned and looked at Zhu Lingying: "Zhu Lingying, please describe to me what you have learned."

"Uh..." Zhu Lingying blushed, "This is a stone that has absorbed the essence of the sun and the moon. It is very spiritual and has a smooth surface. Uh... the stone is exposed to the natural beauty every day, and there is heaven and earth within it, uh. ..I’m sorry, Senior Lu, I’ve been looking at it for a long time and it’s just a stone, at most a round stone, suitable for making stone piers, wow…I’m sorry, sorry!”

Zhu Lingying really couldn't make it up anymore, and later she couldn't bear the pressure and cried.

Unexpectedly, the examiner smiled and shook his head, and reassured: "It's okay, you are right, it is just a stone. Then...Liu Lie, please describe to me what you have understood."

Liu Lie had a headache on his face. He originally wanted to be the last one to speak so that he could "reference" what the previous two people said, but what is the situation now? Zhu Lingying said directly that it was just a stone. Shen Xia on the other side couldn't sit upright and looked even more unreliable. She had no choice but to make it up.

"Senior Lu," Liu Lie cupped his hands, "Throughout the ages, all things have animism, which is called gods, emperors, heavens, and Taiyi. This is the great spirit of all things in the heaven and earth. However, it has a fluid form and a consistent spirituality, and all characters have it. Its spirit.”

"Tao can be Tao, but it is not Tao; it can be named, but it is not named. Wu is the beginning of heaven and earth. Yes is the mother of all things. Tao is the origin of all things, a stone. Maybe it was an ordinary stone before, but when It absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and absorbs the essence of all things, and then it sublimates. It looks ordinary, but in fact there is something universe inside..."

Liu Lie finished speaking, but among the other three people present, the assessor was still smiling. The more Zhu Lingying listened, the more sleepy she became. Liu Lie's speech was just like that of her elders in the family. It was all about general principles and there was no central idea. As for Shen Xia, she was still sitting on the ground with her head lowered, unable to see her expression clearly.

Finally, after Liu Lie finished his long speech, the examiner clapped his hands and said with a smile: "It's amazing. Fellow Taoist's essays are comparable to those of our teachers."

Liu Lie felt in his heart that he was stable. It was certain that he would enter the sect. There was no telling whether he would be able to enter the inner sect by then. He looked at the other two with enthused eyes.

"So... Shen Xia, please describe to me what you have learned." The examiner turned to look at Shen Xia and said.

Shen Xia finally stood up despite the discomfort and said, "Senior Lu, it may sound ridiculous, but I have indeed seen my past and present lives."

Before the examiner could react, Liu Lie was the first to laugh out loud: "Haha, that's really ridiculous."

The examiner glanced at Liu Lie, and Liu Lie instantly felt a strong sense of oppression. The examiner said: "Silence! Liu Lie, please abide by the discipline. From the moment you stand on the competition stage, all your performances have been It was recorded in real time, please be careful what you say."

Liu Lie's face turned pale immediately. It was over. He wouldn't miss the opportunity to enter the sect because of this, right? Probably not. Isn't what Shen Xia said extremely ridiculous? It's just an ordinary stone. Can you still see past and present lives? Could it be that she was a stone in her previous life?

The examiner did not pay attention to Liu Lie's state and said to Shen Xia: "Shen Xia, please continue to describe what you have learned."

"I don't know... After it started, everything around me became dark, and the stone turned into a stone bed. Somehow, I lay on the stone bed and fell asleep, and then I saw my 'past life' and 'this life' One or two fragments of it, and the things I experienced were like a revolving door, and then, then I woke up." Shen Xiayan briefly and comprehensively described the scene she experienced.

Liu Lie's eyes next to him became more and more contemptuous. He just wanted to see what Shen Xia did. Even lying down, he paid attention to the state of these two people the whole time. Shen Xia was simply meditating at that time. It was only in the last few minutes that he saw Shen Xia "pretending" to be exhausted.

The assessor held his chin and thought for a few seconds, then continued to ask Shen Xia: "Shen Xia, are you sure that's all? Aren't you hiding anything?"

hide? Could it be that he seemed to have seen Lin Yueying in the end? That glimmer in your head? But why would the examiner know? Wasn't he alone in the scene at that time? Shen Xia herself was not sure how she woke up.

Shen Xia raised his head and looked directly into the examiner's eyes. He was still smiling, and everything seemed to be under his control.

Do you want to talk about it yourself?
