Chapter 016 The Strange Monument
Time passed minute by minute. When the four people felt that the discussion was almost over 11 o'clock in the evening. The old lady put on makeup with Luo Hong's help, and then called several confidants to check the entire villa and surrounding areas overnight. After learning that there was no eavesdropping device found inside and outside the entire villa, several people were relieved.
It was already very late, and Zhong Lin proposed to go home. Luo Xiaoman immediately said that she wanted to drive to see him off, but Zhong Lin refused on the grounds that it was too late. So Luo Xiaoman proposed to send Zhong Lin out of the villa area, but Zhong Lin did not refuse this time. But what made Luo Xiaoman depressed was that the old lady wanted to send Zhong Lin together. What made Luo Xiaoman even more depressed was that when she blinked at the old lady desperately, so that her eyelids were almost cramped, the old lady pretended not to see him. Then the old lady wore another hat and went out with Zhong Lin and the angrily Luo Xiaoman.
When he walked out of the villa area, the old lady did not mean to stop and continued to move forward, not to the bridge, but to the direction of the monument. Zhong Lin thought to himself, "Doesn't it be that everyone entering Hongzhou should worship the monument first and also when leaving the island, but this is also the case. For the liberation of China and for people to live a good life, these revolutionary martyrs sacrificed their lives and shed their blood. As younger generations, we should never forget them!"
Luo Xiaoman next to her was a little strange, but she didn't make a sound.
When she arrived in front of the monument, the old lady saluted with a standard attentive salute and maintained a salute posture for a full minute. Then she said to Zhong Lin: "Zhong Lin, when you first arrived in Hongzhou, Xiaoman should have told you about Hongzhou and the monument, right?"
"Yes, old lady! I admire these revolutionary martyrs very much." As he said that, Zhong Lin walked forward and bowed deeply to the monument three times. Luo Xiaoman also walked forward and bowed to pay tribute to the revolutionary martyrs.
"Hmm?..." Just as the few people were about to leave, Zhong Lin suddenly felt that he had another source power, and he seemed to feel that this source power entered his body from outside the body. He couldn't help but exclaim.
"What's wrong, Zhong Lin?" Luo Xiaoman asked anxiously.
"Zhong Lin, is there anything wrong?" The old lady's tone was a little confused, but there seemed to be some surprises.
"I have half a certain amount of source power again!" Zhong Lin said in surprise and excitement, "Is it the effect of the supplements taken at supper or..."
"Do you suspect it's related to this monument?" asked the old lady.
"Yes, it's very strange. If it's the effect of a tonic, the source power should be generated in the body, just like before, but this time this source power seems to have penetrated into my body from outside the body..." Zhong Lin was silent for a while, and then said, "That's right, when Xiaoman first came to Hongzhou, when he brought me to worship, the source power seemed to have entered the body from outside the body, but I didn't care at that time! Strange, it's so strange!"
"If this is true, then let's stand here for a while to see if your source power will continue to increase." Luo Xiaoman said.
"Yes, Zhong Lin, try it!" the old lady said excitedly.
Zhong Lin nodded and simply sat up in front of the monument with his eyes closed and his legs crossed. This is the best way for practitioners to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
Half an hour passed, and Zhong Lin slowly opened his eyes.
"How is it?" The old lady and Luo Xiaoman asked in unison this time.
Zhong Lin shook his head in disappointment and stood up and said, "No, except for the source power just now, the source power in my body has not increased even if there is no source power entering my body!"
Luo Xiaoman and the old lady showed a hint of disappointment on their faces.
Zhong Lin bowed three times to the monument, but the source power in his body still did not increase. "Is it all a coincidence?" Zhong Lin said to himself.
The old lady beside her said, "Since that's the case, there's no hurry. Zhong Lin, go home first. You're exhausted today, so take a break early!"
Zhong Lin also felt that it was too late. He probably was anxious. So after saying goodbye to the old lady and Luo Xiaoman, he walked across the bridge and took a taxi to Fuxing Community...
After Zhong Lin left, the old lady did not leave the monument immediately, but stood in front of the monument and pondered for a long time. Later, she returned home under Luo Xiaoman's reminder.
After arriving home, the old lady quickly asked Luo Hong to make a basin of egg noodles for herself. While eating, she said, "I starved to death, I starved to death..." Luo Hong and Luo Xiaoman, who were beside her, couldn't help but smile "giggle".
