The second volume of the Book of Lu Ban, which had puzzled Yan Shouyi for twenty years, finally unveiled its mysterious veil under Yan Qiu's explanation.
Yan Chou's words gave Yan Shouyi an enlightenment. A large amount of information poured into his mind, and the memories of his grandfather's education resurfaced.
That’s it!
If grandpa’s inference is correct, then everything becomes reasonable.
Why do the descendants of Lu Ban need to protect the book of Lu Ban with all their strength?
Because the second volume of Lu Ban’s Book is the hard work of Lu Ban’s descendants throughout the generations, in their eyes, the second volume of Lu Ban’s Book is simply thousands of times more important than some bullshit method of immortality! Even if you risk your life, you must protect it. The attention people attached to Lu Ban's Book made outsiders mistakenly believe that the secret of Lu Ban's Book was the method of immortality. Although it attracted the jealousy of countless people, Lu Ban's Heir still did not dare to make the truth about the second volume of Lu Ban's Book public, because it also involved the relationship between the two factions. , a famous sect will not easily allow a new sect to be added to the world.
Why is he the descendant of Lu Ban?
Because among the folk sects, only the descendants of Lu Ban have the strengths of hundreds of schools! Outsiders only know that the descendants of Lu Ban secretly learned the skills of other sects, but they do not know that they are learning from the barbarians to learn skills. By understanding the teachings of other sects, they can compile orthodox scriptures suitable for folk sects!
No wonder...no wonder...
It took Yan Shouyi a while to fully digest this huge amount of information.
Now when he looked at the second volume of Lu Ban's Book, his eyes no longer had the greed that had been influenced by his inner demons.
Some of them are just admiration for their ancestors.
The second volume of Lu Ban’s Book was written by the descendants of Lu Ban with their blood, sweat and even their lives. It is a supreme treasure.
"But... Dad, what does the second volume of Lu Ban's book have to do with my mother?"
Although the truth about the second volume of Lu Ban's book shocked him, he thought I can't even think of anything to do with his mother.
Yan Qiu recalled that distant and beautiful figure in his memory, and a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.
"Your mother is a descendant of Lu Ban from another lineage. When I was young, although I also traveled around the world, your mother was different. She never used Lu Ban's ability in front of ordinary people. Seeking convenience for herself, she is like a tourist who has traveled all over the country and seen the vicissitudes of the world. She never fights for it. Her biggest wish in this life is to perfect the second volume of Lu Ban's book."
"My mother and I met at Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain. That time, your Uncle Gou, Uncle Miaoji and Uncle Zou and I found out that there was a water monster in Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain., so I wanted to take a look on a whim, but unexpectedly I bumped into your mother who was painting by Tianchi. I remember very clearly that your mother was wearing a white dress that day, and the breeze blew the hem of her dress, rippling like the clear water of Tianchi, and like clouds reflected on the water. "
"Hey, a person will encounter countless people and things in his life, but there is always that one person who, just by looking at him, is destined for life. ”
Seeing his father sinking deeper and deeper into memories, a rare smile appeared on his face.
Yan Shouyi was confused about whether to interrupt his father. Because the Dog Taoist priest and the Miaoji warrior monk were already covering their mouths and snickering "Kukukuku".
Presumably, several uncles were also present on the day when mom and dad met, and that memory is still there. Their memories are also very beautiful.
Seemingly realizing that he had lost his temper, Yan Qiu coughed twice and adjusted his expression.
"Your mother and I fell in love at first sight, and it didn't take long. She became pregnant with you, and I took her back to Chenjiacun to raise the baby. Before giving birth to you, our family lived a very happy life. "
"But after you were born, your mother and I had serious differences. "
Hearing this, Yan Shouyi couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
Growing up, my grandfather and father said that my mother died in childbirth when she gave birth to me, but now It seems that they are obviously lying.
Where has my mother gone? Is she still alive?
“I want a stable life, and your mother yearns for freedom. After giving birth to you, she always wanted to leave Chenjiacun and continue her dream of writing the second volume of Luban Shu. But because I don’t want to leave you with a childhood of running around, I hope that the whole family can stay and live in Chenjiacun. It's a pity that I couldn't keep her in the end. She left us, father and son, and left alone. ”
Yan Chou’s tone was full of disappointment that could not be concealed.
Yan Shouyi was also stunned.
He thought about many things It's possible, but I didn't expect that I and my dad were actually abandoned!
Damn it! Dad, you are so charming, my wife will definitely not abandon me like your wife!< br />
Of course, Yan Shouyi only dared to think about this in his mind, and if he said it out loud, he would be asking for trouble.
He said: "After your mother left, there was no news again, and I was depressed because of it. After learning what happened to my former comrades, I killed someone in anger, left you and my brothers in the world, and deliberately locked myself up. Hiding from the mortal world in prison. Those ten years were like an ascetic ascetic to me. ”
With Yan Qiu’s ability,It is not difficult at all to get out of prison, and there are even a lot of people outside who want to get him out.
But he didn’t want to. He was afraid of the outside world and didn’t know how to face it, so he hid in prison and lived a wild life, even eating up his body into a fat man.
Similarly, he also left Yan Shouyi behind for ten years.
"I'm sorry for you, and I'm sorry for your grandfather." Yan Qiu apologized to Yan Shouyi for the first time.
When he lowered his head, Yan Shouyi saw a few strands of white hair on his father's head. Only then did he realize that his father might also be old.
“Before my grandfather passed away, he once asked someone to send me a message, hoping that I could go out and see him, but I did not reply. This matter has become a lifelong guilt for me.”
< br /> "But just when I was about to be released from prison, I received a letter, a letter sent from Changbai Mountain."
A letter sent from Changbai Mountain?
Yan Shouyi perked up. He could guess with his toes who the letter was from.
"You should have guessed that the letter was sent by your mother," Yan Qiu said softly, "In the letter, she said that she had almost completed the second volume of Lu Ban's book. But there are still four problems that cannot be solved and need my help."
"Because of this letter, I have rediscovered myself that I had lost for ten years. After leaving prison, I have been Looking for the answers to those four questions, but so far, I have not been able to get the answers, so I have no courage to go to Changbai Mountain to find your mother."
"In the past three months in Rongcheng, I have been After thinking about it, I suddenly understood that maybe the person who can answer this question is not me, but you."
"Shouyi, pack up and hit the road. Go to Changbai Mountain to meet your mother on my behalf. Open up those four questions and bring back the second volume of Luban's book to the folk sects, and bring back... everyone's hope."
