Chapter 2522: Across Time and Space
Although Ye Chen saved the lives of Mrs. Jiang's mother and her son, he is still grateful to Mrs. Jiang.
This is because Mrs. Jiang gave her her ancestral phoenix bone and rattan bracelet without hesitation.
Originally, Ye Chen thought that the old lady didn't know that the phoenix bone rattan bracelet was inherited from the ancestors and the material was rare, but she probably didn't know how rare and valuable it was.
But after this meeting, Ye Chen discovered that Mrs. Jiang actually had a relatively clear understanding of the value of the phoenix bone rattan bracelet.
At that time, the old ancestor Meng Changsheng just took a phoenix bone rattan bracelet from the ancestor of the Jiang family, and kept him by his side for decades, and even gave him two rejuvenating pills successively.
Not only that, in order to find a breakthrough, Meng Changsheng even promised to give him a chance if he seeks longevity in the future before the ancestors of the Jiang family parted.
Although Meng Changsheng did this not only to repay Fengguteng's affection, but Ye Chen guessed that Fengguteng definitely played a very important role.
These past events have been passed down from generation to generation in the Jiang family, and Mrs. Jiang is well aware of them.
But when she was in Mexico, she was still willing to use this bracelet to thank herself, which made Ye Chen feel a little grateful.
Moreover, the usefulness of the phoenix bone vine is not just for refining the twenty reshaping pills. If you want to refine high-level elixir in the future, the phoenix bone vine is almost an indispensable and important material, and it will be beneficial to you in the future. great help.
It was also because of this that he decided to use his own strength to make sure that Mrs. Jiang, mother and son would live their lives without any worries.
Seeing that the villas and shops have been settled, Ye Chen feels relieved. Chen Zekai also ordered the Ye family's subordinates in Shudu to take care of the mother and son as much as possible. The low-key way to take care.
After everything was settled, Ye Chen bid farewell to Mrs. Jiang. After Mrs. Jiang thanked her a lot and sent their car out of the community, Ye Chen and Chen Zekai rushed to Shudu Airport overnight and took the opportunity to return to Jinling.
On the plane, Chen Zekai was a little tired from driving all day. After the plane took off, he fell asleep on the comfortable flat-bed seat. Ye Chen was not tired, and gave Mrs. Jiang to his The painting scroll was taken out again, placed on the legs and slowly unfolded.
In the picture, Meng Changsheng with the fairy wind and crane bone once again jumped out of the scroll. When I saw this painting in the old house of the Jiang family in Shunan, the painting hung high on the wall and the lights were dim. When his wife told Ye Chen about those past events, Ye Chen was distracted a lot, so he didn't appreciate the painting too carefully.
But now, after laying it out in front of him and watching it carefully with the reading light on the plane, Ye Chen is even more impressed with the skill and charm of this painting.
Because the Chinese ancients paid more attention to charm than reality, in fact, most of the famous ancient painters were not good at realistic painting.
Landscapes, fish and insects, and characters all pay more attention to a vivid charm.
And the paintings of the ancestor of the Jiang family, although they are also traditional Chinese painting styles, are very detailed and meticulous in depicting the details, so that Meng Changsheng in the paintings feels very real and vivid, even the one swaying in the wind Their long beards look very realistic.
Perhaps people in the Tang Dynasty did not have the habit of writing inscriptions on paintings. Ye Chen did not find any inscriptions on the paintings, but he firmly believed in his heart that if this painting was made public, with its uncanny style of painting, I am afraid that it would be popular in the whole world. There is a stir in the art world.
Maybe, the ranking of famous painters in the Tang Dynasty will also be rewritten because of the publication of this painting.
But Ye Chen naturally didn't have this plan. He decided to treasure this painting well. After returning to Jinling, he would not let others see the contents of this painting.
After admiring it intently for a long time, just as Ye Chen was about to roll up the scroll again, he suddenly felt that there was some slight aura fluctuation in the scroll.
This made him shiver instantly!
According to Mrs. Jiang, this painting was made by her ancestors in their old age.
Since he is old, he must have parted with Meng Changsheng long ago.
The ancestor of the Jiang family did not have the talent to master spiritual energy, so apart from taking two rejuvenation pills and living longer than ordinary people, it is absolutely impossible for him to possess spiritual energy.
This also means that the painting he painted in his old age should not have any aura.
However, there is indeed a very subtle trace of spiritual energy in this painting. Ye Chen couldn't help asking himself in his heart: "Could it be that this spiritual energy was left by Meng Changsheng?! Maybe the Jiang family didn't know that Meng Changsheng once had a certain period of time. Come back!"
Thinking of this, he immediately calmed down, distributed some spiritual energy, and carefully covered the whole painting, looking for the source of that trace of spiritual energy.
Soon, he found traces of that aura on the head of Meng Changsheng's portrait.
Ye Chen was overjoyed, and immediately used the aura to perceive the other party. At the moment when the two auras merged, a first-person perspective picture suddenly flooded into Ye Chen's mind!
In the picture, a grand funeral is being held in a mountain village. The people at the funeral are not dressed in modern times, but look more like the costumes of the Tang Dynasty.
Ye Chen could recognize from the topography that this mountain village was exactly the one where Mrs. Jiang lived.
And the mountain village in the picture does not look as dilapidated as it is today. In the mountain village in the picture, there is a rather grand wooden courtyard, with carved beams and painted buildings everywhere. It looks like a wealthy family.
However, the funeral in the picture is not a coherent real-time picture, but more like a time-lapse photography that is fast forwarded many times.
A crowd gathered in front of the coffin in the main room, a middle-aged man knelt down and wailed loudly, and a group of women and children were also crying incessantly behind, and there were three paintings hanging on the wall directly opposite, and it was Ye Chen who died in Jiang Lao's life. The three pictures I saw at my wife's house.
The following picture shows people crying and mourning. Although there are many etiquettes, but fortunately, the whole picture is very fast, and the ceremony is completed one by one like a horse watching flowers.
After all the necessary etiquette was completed, more than a dozen middle-aged men carried the coffin to the foot of the back mountain and buried the coffin here.
Afterwards, a group of people returned to the wooden deep house compound, the bustle faded away, several female family members left with their families one after another, leaving the middle-aged man alone in the mourning hall.
However, the middle-aged man couldn't see any pain on his face. Instead, he stood in the middle of the main room with a happy face, looked at the portrait of Meng Changsheng on the central wall, and said with a smile: "Meng Patriarch, my father passed away three days ago. I have passed away, and today I have been buried in the earth. Even if you have the ability to bring the dead back to life, it may be in vain now. If you can really find the return of longevity, you should give me the opportunity you promised my father back then. My father lived for 110 years. I am envious of others, I am now forty-two, I only hope that you can live long and fulfill the promise of the year as soon as possible!"
Although the middle-aged man's words were difficult to understand, Ye Chen still understood what he meant. He should be the son of the ancestor of the Jiang family. At this time, he was standing in front of the portrait of Meng Changsheng, muttering that he wanted Meng Changsheng to get him soon. Changsheng, and then come back to give him the chance that he promised his father back then.
To put it bluntly, he was looking forward to Meng Changsheng's return so that he too could live forever.
After this person spoke, a gust of wind suddenly blew in the main room, and he lay down on the ground and fell into a deep sleep.
At the same time, a middle-aged man in a green shirt came in with powerful steps. This man's clothes and appearance were the same as the portrait of Meng Changsheng, but he looked a little younger than the portrait of Meng Changsheng.
Ye Chen could conclude that this person was Meng Changsheng.
Meng Changsheng paused in the three paintings for a long time, then looked at the old self-portraits of the Jiang family ancestors on the right, and sighed: "The meritorious adult has gone... Muyun, if you wait for three more days to be a teacher, you can fulfill the duties of the year as a teacher." Now that you have left, as a teacher, you should fulfill the agreement with your son, but just looking at his words and deeds, it really disappoints the teacher, it is worth not to pass on this opportunity."
After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand, tapped lightly on his portrait, and murmured: "For what happened today, I have left it in this painting as a teacher. If you look at the portrait, you can know the whole story, and when I meet Ru Jiuquan again in the future, you must not blame me."
After saying that, he turned around gracefully and disappeared into the night.
At this time, all the pictures also stopped abruptly.
Ye Chen was immersed in this kind of shock that almost transcended time and space, and it took him a long time to recover.
When he came back to his senses, he marveled at Meng Changsheng's ability to keep his thoughts in his paintings, and at the same time couldn't help feeling the tragic fate of the descendants of the Jiang family.
There is no doubt that when Meng Changsheng returned to that small mountain village, he must have achieved longevity.
However, Ye Chen can also conclude that the "longevity" that Meng Changsheng obtained should only break through the 200-year lifespan limit, and it definitely does not mean immortality or immortality.
The reason why he is so sure is, on the one hand, that after he mastered the "Nine Profound Heavenly Scriptures", he was able to argue from the perspective of an insider. In fact, there is no real sense of immortality at all. Just a little longer.
On the other hand, it is also because of the last sentence Meng Changsheng said to the portrait of Jiang's ancestors in the picture just now, that sentence is more straightforward: I will meet you again under the Nine Springs in the future, so don't blame me for it.
Since the Northern Wei Dynasty, there has been a saying under the Nine Springs, and at that time "Nine Springs" represented the world after death.
Since Meng Changsheng said that he would reunite with the ancestors of the Jiang family under the Nine Springs in the future, it meant that he knew that he would die sooner or later.
Therefore, Ye Chen made a comprehensive judgment that Meng Changsheng should have found a way to extend his life before he was two hundred years old, so he came back to the ancestors of the Jiang family to fulfill his promise, but he did not expect to be one step too late.
But according to Meng Changsheng's plan, even if the ancestor of the Jiang family was dead, he should have given the opportunity to his son.
But the son of the ancestor of the Jiang family disappointed Meng Changsheng because of his rebellious remarks in front of the portrait, so he also missed this good opportunity to live to be two hundred years old or even longer.
However, Ye Chen couldn't help feeling that the other descendants of the Jiang family had really good tempers. Up to Mrs. Jiang's generation, after waiting for more than 1000 years, they were still waiting for Meng Changsheng to appear.
Anyone who has a bad temper in the middle, seeing that he can't wait for left and right, and tore up Meng Changsheng's portrait, he probably already knew the reason.
But sometimes it's good luck to trick people. The Jiang family didn't wait for this result, but they discovered it by accident.
At the same time, Ye Chen was also thinking to himself: "I don't know what method Meng Changsheng found to make his life span exceed the upper limit of 400 years, and I don't know how many years he lived in the end. If he lives up to now, Isn't it more than [-] years old?"
Thinking of this, Ye Chen shook his head again, and said unswervingly: "It is impossible for anyone in this world to live to be [-] years old. I think this senior has already been buried somewhere!"
