Chapter 76: The story of Buhua and Lao Li (5)
Buhua finally, against her will, took Lao Li to the insect room to see the insects.
As Lao Li said, he only saw the bugs, and did not do anything. Before leaving, Lao Li gave Buhua a bottle and said to her, “This bottle contains a special substance. After feeding it to the bugs, it will make the bugs relatively weak in their future evolution and growth. If you choose a bug, just throw it away. If you choose a human, give the bug a drink. Just one drop is enough for a single bug in a bowl of water. The amount in this bottle is just enough for a few female bugs in the bug room, and after they drink it, the eggs they lay will no longer have the ability to evolve into female bugs.
Bu Hua really wanted to throw the bottle away, but for some reason, she held on to it tightly, so tightly that her knuckles turned white. She felt that she was powerless in the face of this man, and that she would always listen to him and do what he said, as if every word he said was full of strange magic, making you risk bringing him into the insect room, and even though you really wanted to throw away the medicine that would harm the insects and the village, you still felt that you shouldn’t throw it away.
However, you can clearly feel that he will not tell you a single lie, not even a single word of persuasion. He is so direct in making his requests, and he also respects you very much, giving you a choice.
While Bu Hua was pondering, Lao Li had already turned and was about to leave. Bu Hua heard him sigh and say, “This medicine will also make the bugs eat less people because they are weak. Although it doesn’t matter if it’s evil or good, although the time has not yet come, although it is also the fate of those people, I am still a human after all, and sometimes I can’t be too particular about fate and the Dao.”
Bu Hua looked at the back of Lao Li and asked, “Didn’t you say that you couldn’t do anything to the existence of the same place?”
Without turning his head, Li’s figure was already receding. He said, “I didn’t do it. I gave a knife to someone, and I made it clear that the knife would hurt people. Whether to kill or not to kill was the choice of that person, not mine.”
“Aren’t you afraid I’ll throw this bottle away?”
“That’s just your choice.”
“Do you know me well? Have you used some method to confuse me?”
“Hahaha…” Old Li left only a burst of laughter, but the entire figure had already completely blended into the night with the distance, and was no longer visible.
After reading this, my fellow apprentices and I were very excited. It turns out that our master really did come from Kunlun. It turns out that our master set up a plan a long time ago to weaken the worms. I said, in the era of the Ming Dynasty, when the great powers were exhausted, they were unable to eliminate the evil worms. How come in modern times, we were able to eliminate them.
It turns out that many years ago, my master had already weakened them by 60%.
However, there are still many mysteries swirling in our minds. For example, we never thought that our master would be a fairy from Kunlun, so what was Gao Ning doing?
To find out the answers, we must continue reading the letter.
The letter was very long, more than ten pages, and Gao Ning seemed to have poured out all the unsaid words that had been pent up in her whole life.
But the rest of the letter, though long, is not too important. It mainly talks about the transformation of Gao Ning’s grandmother, who experienced the death of the mother in the mother-and-son pair, and was unable to save her. She experienced the death of the mother in the mother-and-son pair, and was unable to save her. She experienced the death of the mother in the mother-and-son pair, and was unable to save her. She experienced the death of the mother in the mother-and-son pair, and was unable to save her. She experienced the death of the mother in the mother-and-son pair, and was unable to save her. She experienced the death of the mother in the mother-and-son pair, and was unable to save her. She experienced the death of the mother in the mother-and-son pair, and was unable to save her. She experienced the death of the mother in the mother-
She is a special person because people often experience goodness first, and then experience evil in the stumbling and stumbling of life. She has reversed this process, but in any case, it shows that there is no absolute evil in the world, nor is there absolute goodness. Along the way, you will always experience some of the nature of humanity. The rest is just like what Grandma Gao Ning did with her patchwork. It’s a choice, a choice of where your heart is going.
In the end, the warmth of human beings and the increasingly obvious ruthlessness of the bugs made Buhua choose the former. She used the bottle of medicine, and that day, the bugs all fell into an unprecedented state of weakness, and even a strange effect appeared. After the mother bugs fell into weakness, they began to absorb the power of the larvae, and that day many larvae died, and even some of the potential larvae.
Such a big change happened, and the village was of course thrown into a mess. They began to investigate, and Bu Hua had no choice but to escape from the village through the secret tunnel.
Two things happened during this escape. First, Buhua’s parents had already passed away, so she had no ties to anyone and was able to escape the village without causing trouble for anyone.
The second thing, which is more magical, is that Buhua chose to escape from Zizi’s insect room. At that moment, Zizi communicated with Buhua and passed on a lot of information to Buhua, which led to everything that happened later with Gao Ning.
The communication between Buhua and the insects was different from the communication between people. To describe this communication more specifically, it was a direct spiritual communication, so it was able to convey a large amount of information to Buhua in an instant.
And this information, we infer from reading the letter, was not even told to our master.
But who is our master, Old Li? He had mastered the five meridians and had reached a high level of cultivation in each of them. He could calculate that Buhua had a loophole in her heart, which was an opportunity to eliminate the insects. He could calculate that Buhua would choose a human, and he could calculate that Buhua’s descendants would go astray, leaving behind a golden talisman that sealed the thunder.
This is our master, Lao Li!
What message did Buhua get from Zizi? Gao Ning wrote it all down in the letter, and it was clear that Zizi told Buhua not to forget their promise to return to their homeland together. It told Buhua that because it had been weakened, it could no longer evolve to a level where it could return to its homeland, even if they found the blood full of spiritual energy every 80 years when the mother insect evolved.
It told Buhua that there would be many magical ways to return to their homeland, and then separated it from Buhua. Finally, it asked Buhua to never forget her promise.
Buhua escaped successfully, and buried everything Zizi told her in her heart, keeping it as her deepest secret. In a way, Buhua grew up with Zizi, and their feelings for each other reached a point that was difficult to measure.
Even if Buhua chose a man in the end, it doesn’t mean that her feelings for Zizi were extinguished. I can’t speculate on the trajectory of Buhua’s life, but I can only say that she must have felt guilty and somewhat regretful towards Zizi, so she didn’t tell my master about this secret.
In the letter, Gao Ning mentioned that her grandmother had said that although Zizi was a sacred insect, she had never lied to her and had always protected her. She was sad that she had deprived Zizi of the opportunity to return to her homeland.
She never asked me to merge with Zizi, but she did ask me to promise to visit Zizi and help it evolve as much as possible. Since I am a witchcraft genius, my blood is also spirit blood.
But now, after I fused the eggs, I feel more and more that Zizi may have lied to my grandmother. There is no symbiosis, is there? It’s just a stepping stone! Damn bug, fortunately I don’t have much affection for it.
Skipping the middle part of the story, Gao Ning wrote another letter about the past, because Lao Li had appeared again.
This time, it was fifteen years after the last time they met. That year, China was liberated, and Gao Ning’s grandmother had become an ordinary Han Chinese woman, living an ordinary life with her own family and children.
That year, it was still Lao Li who found Buhua. Unlike the last time they met, Lao Li looked particularly weak this time, but he wasn’t haggard. That weakness was a feeling that came from the core of his being.
This time, Lao Li gave Bu Hua a box, which was the same box Gao Ning used to put the letter I gave him in.
