Cover the sky - Chapter 2
Chapter 2: Su Wen
“In ancient times, people lived to be over a hundred years old, and their movements were not weakened.” Ye Fan closed the Yellow Emperor’s Canon of Internal Medicine, and was fascinated by the ancient times recorded in the Su Wen chapter.
There are no detailed and accurate written records about the ancient times. For modern people, it is a period of ancient history full of endless fog, which makes people think endlessly.
The breeze blew, and several sycamore trees in the yard swayed gently. The lush branches and leaves made a “rustling” sound, and the fresh air blew in from the window.
Ye Fan likes to read “strange” books. After making a cup of light green tea, he continued to flip through the ancient books in his hand.
“Mortals can live to be over a hundred years old, and their movements show no signs of aging. In ancient times, what a mysterious ancient history…”
As a modern person, he naturally would not believe the age of the ancients recorded in the Su Wen chapter. What he was curious about was why the “ancient times” that the ancients yearned for were mentioned in many ancient books. It seemed that an ancient civilization shrouded in endless fog disappeared in the long river of history.
Is there really an unknown ancient history? After a brief reverie, he continued to read.
The Yellow Emperor’s Canon of Internal Medicine is a treasure-level ancient book. It was written thousands of years ago and is one of the three great books in ancient China. Although the whole book cannot be trusted, it can be said to be of great value as a whole.
“Lifting the heaven and earth, grasping yin and yang, breathing in the air, being independent and guarding the spirit, the muscles are like one, so they can live forever and have no end. This is the way of life.”
The ancient times mentioned many times in the Suwen chapter, there were people who had insight into the changes of heaven and earth, cultivated their essence, and could live forever. Modern people simply cannot believe it.
Unknowingly, the red sun gradually fell to the west, and the sunset fell, dyeing the lawn and the sycamore tree outside the window with a faint red glow.
Ye Fan put down the Yellow Emperor’s Canon of Internal Medicine in his hand and prepared to attend an important class reunion.
It has been three years since I left the university campus. Ye Fan stayed in this city after graduation. Looking back, the simple and pure student days are gone forever.
Three years is not long or short. The former classmates have long gone their separate ways, and everyone has their own different life trajectories.
The pleasant ringtone of the mobile phone interrupted his thoughts. It was a call from his classmate Lin Jia, a very smart and beautiful woman who went to a neighboring city after graduation. With extraordinary means, she was promoted to department manager a year ago.
As soon as he pressed the answer button, he heard Lin Jia’s ridicule. She showed excellent communication skills in college and it was easy to get close to people.
“Why, do you miss me?” Ye Fan easily counterattacked.
There was a pleasant laughter from the other side, saying, “I don’t know the place of the party, let’s go together later.”
After agreeing on the meeting place, Ye Fan drove out. He had pursued Lin Jia in college, but was euphemistically told that the two were not suitable to be together.
Lin Jia is a very beautiful and moving woman, and her shrewdness and rationality are better than her beauty. She knows clearly what she needs and how to do it. It can be said that she is very realistic.
Ten minutes before the appointment, Ye Fan found a parking space in front of Parkson Mall, and then got out of the car and waited for Lin Jia on the roadside.
The whole city was bathed in the afterglow of the sunset, and many buildings were covered with a layer of light golden luster. There was a constant stream of vehicles and people on the road.
Seven or eight minutes later, a Toyota car stopped by the roadside, revealing a beautiful and delicate face. Lin Jia opened the door and walked over.
Ye Fan greeted her and smiled, “There is also a special car to pick her up.”
“Don’t make fun of me, I don’t have a special car driver, that’s my classmate Liu Yunzhi.”
Although they have been in contact for three years since graduation, they only met once two years ago. Lin Jia was as youthful and beautiful as ever, dressed casually, tight jeans with a purple T-shirt, outlining her slender and soft body with more curves and graceful postures.
“I haven’t seen you for more than two years. Are you okay?” Lin Jia’s hair was shoulder-length, black and smooth, and she had a pair of phoenix eyes that were slightly tilted upwards under the shade of her long eyelashes, which naturally gave her a special charm and made her look charming.
“Not bad.” Ye Fan smiled and teased, “Lin Jia, you are so beautiful that you would be sorry if you didn’t go into the entertainment industry.” “You
deserve a beating, right?” Lin Jia smiled very touchingly, her phoenix eyes squinted, her light waves flowing, and her red lips were also very s*xy and charming.
At this time, the window of the Toyota parked on the side of the road was lowered, and a familiar face appeared in the driving seat. It was Liu Yunzhi, a former classmate.
Like Ye Fan, he stayed in this city after graduation. Thanks to the care of a relative with some background, he opened a small company and was considered a successful person among his classmates.
Although they were in the same city, he had almost no contact with Ye Fan, mainly because of a conflict during college.
Liu Yunzhi didn’t get out of the car, but smiled faintly and said, “Long time no see.”
“Yeah. Let’s get together when we have time.” Seeing that the other party didn’t even get out of the car, Ye Fan just greeted him calmly.
“Did you take a taxi?”
Ye Fan didn’t bother to argue with this natural contempt, and responded casually.
Lin Jia is a very shrewd and clever woman. She could naturally feel the atmosphere in front of her. She smiled at Ye Fan and said, “I came here in a hurry this time. I called several old classmates who stayed in this city. Let’s go together in Liu Yunzhi’s car.”
Before Ye Fan said anything, Liu Yunzhi spoke first with a little apology, “I’m so sorry. I have already made an appointment with two other old classmates. They are at the intersection ahead, and it seems that there are not enough seats.”
“It doesn’t matter. You go first, I’ll be there soon.” After Ye Fan finished speaking, he turned and smiled at Lin Jia, “Would you like to go with me, or…”
When Lin Jia hesitated a little, Liu Yunzhi urged, “Beautiful Lin, you should take my car first, otherwise I’m afraid you will be drowned by saliva.”
After standing on the side of the road for a few minutes, Lin Jia expressed her apologies to Ye Fan, and finally got into the Toyota car at Liu Yunzhi’s urging.
The moment the car window was raised, Ye Fan vaguely heard Liu Yunzhi’s slightly disdainful whisper: “It’s the rush hour after work now, it’s strange to wait for a taxi!” Then, the Toyota car drove away.
In the past, Ye Fan was also a celebrity on the university campus. Today, he was considered to have taken a taxi, and naturally looked a little down and out compared to Liu Yunzhi.
He simply ignored people like Liu Yunzhi, but Lin Jia’s performance surprised him a little.
However, everyone has his own attitude towards life. After all, people have to live in reality, and naturally they will inevitably have utilitarianism, self-esteem, vanity, etc. Ye Fan is not so disgusted. The
red sun has fallen below the horizon, and the sky that seems to have been stained with blood has gradually dimmed. The whole city seems to be covered with a layer of gray thick clothes, and the night is about to fall.
At this moment, nine huge dragon corpses are pulling a huge bronze coffin, lying across the dark and cold universe. This shocking scene seems to be frozen there forever!
Several astronauts on the International Space Station have transmitted this shocking information back to Earth and are awaiting further instructions.
