Chapter 5 One day in the small room, seven days in the mountains
If what Eucommia ulmoides said is true, the scene that happened in Dulong Bingzhu Temple was indeed weird and terrifying.
He and Qin Chengpei's goal was to climb Mount Everest, but they didn't expect to meet a fairy on the way.
What’s even more strange is that Dulong Bingzhu Temple is not a paradise. At least 3,000 climbers rest here every year.
If everyone meets an immortal, it will turn into a shocking story.
In ancient legends, someone met an immortal in the mountains and watched the chess game without saying a word. At the end of the game, the handle of the ax he used to chop wood rotted into ashes. When he came down the mountain again, decades had passed. Everything outside was human.
No, everything has changed.
At least, Eucommia ulmoides and Qin Chengpei were able to return safely after meeting the Fairy Queen, and they were not out of touch with their previous lives.
"You're not going to tell me that 'a day in the mountains lasts several years in the world'?" I asked with a smile.
Du Zhong shook his head and gently touched his left wrist.
"Are those ironwood pearls worn there?" I asked again.
Du Zhong nodded: "Yes, Qin Chengpei and I are both people who have traveled north and south. We have seen too many charlatanisms and will never be easily deceived by others. However, I can't explain what I encountered at that time. Wait.
I walked out of the Zen room and found that the snow outside had melted. After asking other monks, I found out that seven days had passed."
Fang Xing took a breath of cold air, and I coughed lightly to hide my inner uneasiness.
The atmosphere in the room was stiff and strange, and both Fang Xing and I were stunned by Eucommia ulmoides.
If everything Eucommia said without witness testimony, it would be full of nonsense and worthless.
I was always in a state of doubt about everything he described.
"Where is Qin Chengpei? Where has he gone?" I asked cautiously, looking for details that might indicate that Eucommia was lying.
Eucommia ulmoides suddenly shouted angrily: "I was playing chess, he was good, he was good, he did a good thing, he even accompanied the fairy sister to see the snow scene, and was invited by the fairy sister to drink tea in her fairy cave... We came together.
, he is a bad old man, and I am a young talent. If the two of us stand together, the beauty will definitely fall in love with me first. Tell me, you judge, am I more handsome and generous than Qin Chengpei? More elegant? "
Fang Xing took a few steps back and looked up and down Eucommia ulmoides carefully.
It is important for people to know themselves. Even in the shopping mall, Eucommia ulmoides is no more elegant than Qin Chengpei.
They are businessmen, but they are not around the colorful negotiation tables, cocktail parties, and high-end clubs in the city, but in the harsh forests around Uttar Pradesh. Their skin is rough on their faces, and they speak casually and rudely. Of course, they cannot win over girls.
Happy.
The two are about the same weight, not much different.
"Well, Eucommia ulmoides, you are indeed younger than Qin Chengpei, and you have a great advantage in age, but I am concerned about a question right now. What is the purpose of the fairy sister inviting Qin Chengpei to travel with you?" I vaguely felt that this was not the case.
It is a distress, more like a well-conceived "immortal jump".
"She gave him a jade pendant with her birth date on it. Isn't this... isn't this a private life-long decision? When I saw the jade pendant, I immediately fought for it, and the two of us started fighting in the yard. Unexpectedly, Qin Chengpei would
The guy was so obsessed with sex and so powerful that he pressed me down on the grass and snatched away the jade pendant. At that time, he said something that I still remember clearly - 'I will definitely save you, and we can hope for a reunion day'.
Listen, Qin Chengpei wants to reunite with the fairy sister and achieve good things... This old pervert, the fairy sister is a pure and pure person, how can she commit herself to him? "
Things are getting more complex, but the tone is also getting clearer.
Qin Chengpei cracked the ancient Bodhi tree in order to find the doll, and the doll was related to the fairy sister they met in the snow mountain.
At the moment, the doll is in the laboratory, but Qin Chengpei has disappeared. It is very likely that Qin Chengpei has "become an immortal" and has arrived in another void world. Eucommia ulmoides spent all his money to buy the doll, also for the fairy sister.
"Have you ever gone to find the gods and the fairy sister again? Wouldn't it be easier to ask them for confirmation?" Fang Xing couldn't help but ask.
Eucommia ulmoides shook his head in frustration: "Why didn't you find it? I went back to look for it at that time, but the secret room, the courtyard, the gods, and the old monk all disappeared. None of the other monks in the temple had seen the old monk. I described his appearance in detail, and then drew
I took his avatar, but strangely, the monks said that there was no such person in the temple. Now, I don’t care about anything, I just want to find the fairy sister. Such a gorgeous and charming beauty, I can never take advantage of Qin Chengpei——
"
No matter what they encounter is the "immortal Lanke chess game" or the "advanced immortal dance", the top priority is to find Qin Chengpei, let him explain everything clearly, and confront Eucommia ulmoides.
I have read many ancient legendary notebooks in the past, and the stories recorded in them about ghosts, monsters, and foxes reviving themselves are all weird and bizarre. The only thing worth remembering is that good will be rewarded with good, and evil will be rewarded with evil. As long as you pay sincerely, you will receive blessings.
At the moment, I suspect that Qin Chengpei was bewitched by the fairy sister and regarded this "distress" as a sudden rebirth in his life. Therefore, even though he has reached the age of "fifty and knows his destiny", he still risked his own life and jumped into the sea of love with him.
The fairy sister made a covenant.
Du Zhong explained a lot more intermittently. Among them, the one that Fang Xing and I found most valuable was the conflict between Du Zhong and Qin Chengpei.
They are business partners, and every transaction will be unpleasant because of trivial matters.
According to Eucommia ulmoides, Qin Chengpei has now become an ancient tree dealer, ignoring business rules, fairness and justice, and the commandments of Uttar Pradesh. As long as foreign merchants pay enough money, Qin Chengpei will break all restrictions and ensure that the goods purchased by the other party arrive on time.
.
During the cooperation, Du Zhong believed that he was on the front line dealing with the local government and the people. Every time he went out, he would be on tenterhooks and should get most of the profits from the transaction. However, Qin Chengpei did not take risks and could just make a few phone calls.
It's absolutely unfair to sit back and enjoy the gains.
The conflicts that had accumulated for many years finally broke out after this "meeting with immortals".
Returning to Uttar Pradesh, Eucommia ulmoides went home first to recuperate, and then hired some helpers to seek justice from Qin Chengpei. However, when he learned that Qin Chengpei was uncharacteristically obsessed with "looking for the ancient bodhi tree", he suddenly had other plans and prepared
Eat what you want and cut it off halfway.
"Are you sure that after a few hours in the secret room, seven days have passed outside? Where's Qin Chengpei, has he ever said that?"
Regarding my question, Eucommia ulmoides sneered: "A spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold. Hum, this old pervert, after seeing the fairy sister, his soul flew into the sky, and he has long forgotten the length of time... I swear, after leaving the secret room, time will
Seven days have passed. You can ask the monks at Dulong Bingzhu Temple for the details of this matter. It is definitely not a lie."
I nodded to Fang Xing, and she immediately understood and walked out quietly.
"Okay, I've said all that needs to be said, call Kasha and fulfill your promise?" Eucommia ulmoides seemed to have regained her confidence and stared at me.
I called Kasha and gave a brief introduction to the situation.
When she heard the plot of "encountering immortals", she smiled bitterly before replying: "Mr. Ye, Eucommia ulmoides is lying. It is true that Mr. Qin went to Dulong Bingzhu Temple, but he never said anything about encountering immortals. Take a look at these stories
I just made it up. Eucommia ulmoides has been among lumberjacks and wood dealers all year round, and has heard many magical legends. He himself is a master at making up random things, so after processing, these legends will become lifelike, as if they had just happened.
However, these are all fake, and they are all weapons used by him to deceive..."
I remained calm and continued to narrate: "Eucommia ulmoides wants to buy a doll and offers 100 million. If you are willing to sell both dolls to him, the price will be 1 billion. Kasha, think about it and give me an answer as soon as possible. Can you?
?”
Kasha was silent for a few seconds, and then responded in a low voice: "Such a good deal is worth considering. If Mr. Qin had not disappeared, he would definitely agree. Give me some time, I will talk to several other deputy managers and directors
Let’s discuss it and reply as soon as possible.”
"About how long?" I asked.
"Alas, Mr. Ye, after Mr. Qin disappeared, another accident happened at the Giant Wood Museum. Our two independent directors, Mr. Banda and Prince Thunder Eagle, were involved in an accident in a heavy avalanche and lost contact. Their lives and deaths are unknown at the moment. So, I still have to spend some time.
Please take some time to deal with these matters before convening the meeting. Sorry."
I suddenly understood that good things never come together, and misfortunes never come alone. The large avalanche I accidentally witnessed on the plane actually affected the normal operation of the Giant Wood Museum.
After the call, I conveyed Kasha's intention to Du Zhong.
Eucommia gritted her teeth: "Even this bitch Kasha dares to interfere with this. She wears the same trousers with Qin Chengpei, and they have an ambiguous relationship, so she is determined to guard the family property of the Giant Wood Museum for Qin Chengpei. I don't care, you promised, as long as
If I tell you what happened at Dulong Bingzhu Temple, you will be the one to sell the doll to me. You can’t go back on your word. No, I’ll just stay here and wait for the reply from Kashana bitch——”
Since Eucommia ulmoides is acting like a fool, the matter will be easily solved.
At this moment, I thought about the brutal scene when I saw the avalanche on the plane, and I couldn't help but feel chills running down my back.
Mountain climbing is mankind's provocation to nature. The words "high mountains are man-made peaks" are tantamount to mankind's mighty oath to trample nature under their feet. Unfortunately, this move of mankind is just a mayfly shaking the tree. How much impact does it have on nature?
The damage is unknown. On the contrary, when nature strikes back, with a slight shake of the body, typhoons, tsunamis, landslides, avalanches on Mount Everest... can destroy everything in an instant, and sweep down the climbers who boasted about Haikou to hell.
"Hey, Ye Kai, you can't go back on what you promised me -" Eucommia ulmoides was still shouting.
Fang Xing went out, asked the hotel's logistics staff to come in, bandaged the wound of Eucommia ulmoides, and then sent him to the next room and placed him under house arrest.
"It seems that Eucommia ulmoides is also obsessed with sex, just like Qin Chengpei?" Fang Xing was bewitched by the story of Eucommia ulmoides, and his thinking mode went astray, completely leaning towards Dulong Bingzhu Temple.
I turned on the computer and continued browsing the videos of the ancient tree puppets.
Qin Chengpei disappeared, Banda and Prince Thunder Eagle disappeared in the avalanche. If Kasha could not stop his losses in time and use powerful means to control the situation, the Giant Wood Museum would collapse.
Of course, according to simple logic, Kasha held a board meeting and everyone voted by a show of hands to sell the two dolls and make a billion profit, which may be the fastest way to solve the crisis.
Then, the focus of the question will fall here - "Where do the ancient tree dolls come from? What is their use? What is the value of Eucommia ulmoides for one billion yuan?"
