97. Suspicion
"It was a brutal battle. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info "Sima Nan sighed as if he saw last night's war.
Theseus clenched his fists and said, "I will definitely avenge them!"
Sima Nan's expression flashed with a hint of unnaturalness, and he asked casually: "How do you take revenge, do you know who the enemy is?"
Theseus remembered those people last night, obviously the army, and couldn't help but say hatefully: "It must be Lord Batan!"
Sima Nan looked at the heavy mountain in the distance and pondered, and said, "Batan Ke is a powerful lord, and his subordinates are full of talents, so it is not easy to lose. "Actually, what he wants to say is that you can't even solve a few creeps, and you still want to kill Batan?!
Hughes's mother was a wise and virtuous woman, and although she suffered many misfortunes in her life, she always faced life positively. She told Hughes a lot of truths, and also mentioned a lot of father-son ethics, and when Hughes was beaten and scolded, she always soothed the wounds caused by her father.
It wasn't until he grew up that he realized that his mother did this all for him, and that his mother didn't want him to live in hatred, nor did she want him to commit the sin of killing his father, let alone being killed by his father because of hatred and antagonism.
Hughes thought about everything sadly, and said heavily: "I will do whatever it takes. ”
Sima Nan looked at Xiusi strangely, thinking a little distressedly. The towering mountains block the north wind, making the environment in the valley much warmer, and the breeze is soothing, only a faint coolness. Sima Nan finally smiled deeply, and said meaningfully, "This life is too monotonous, it's better to have some fun." Then he asked, "How can I help?"
Xiusi was in great need of help from others, but he always felt uneasy when he looked at Sima Nan's smile, and said lightly: "No. ”
The cold expression didn't seem to dampen Sima Nan's enthusiasm, and he made another suggestion: "Actually, your troll clan has a very powerful thing hidden, if you can find it, revenge will definitely not be a problem." ”
Although Xiusi didn't want to deal with Sima Nan anymore, he couldn't help but ask, "What is it?"
The pale red sun just leaned against the towering mountain, and the light sea of clouds kept rolling in the sky. Sima Nan looked up at the sky and said softly and with a little self-talk: "God, known as the perfect man. What is the difference between God and man? a perfection and a defect. ”
"The seven original sins of gluttony, greed, laziness, lust, arrogance, envy, and anger accompany and limit human beings. Cultivation is the tempering of the body, but the deeper level is the sublimation of the spirit. What if one day man is freed from those seven original sins?
God is always something out of reach, Sima Nan's words made Xiusi feel very unpractical, he didn't understand how to talk about God again. However, Sima Nan's words made Xiusi a little more insightful.
"Do you know Sensi?" Sima Nan asked suddenly.
Hughes asked, "God of Light?"
"Sens is the Great Sage who first proposed and practiced success. Sima Nan's eyes flashed with a longing light.
Xius asked in surprise, "Are you saying that the God of Light is only cultivated by a human being?!"
The light in Sima Nan's eyes became brighter and brighter, as if two bricks and stones were shining, and he said a little excitedly: "Yes, God is not an unattainable apex, as long as the method is right, human beings can still be on a par with God." Sensi is a person who uses the seven treasures to entrust the seven original sins of mankind separately, so as to cultivate to perfection. ”
However, after Sens crossed another world, the things he had placed on the seven original sins remained. As long as we find that thing, we will be able to follow the path of our predecessors and become a true god with half the effort!"
Hughes thought it was ridiculous, for God was like the moon in water and the flowers in a mirror, unreal and difficult to touch. Human beings may often talk about God, but from the bottom of their hearts, they often doubt the existence of God.
The thought of Theseus was written directly on his face, and his disbelief in his eyes was naked.
Sima Nan smiled slightly, not minding the other party's skeptical expression, "This is the contrast between the wise and the ignorant, only an outstanding genius like me can understand the truth of God." It's really lonely, in the vast world, how many people can talk to me on an equal footing!" Sima Nan looked at the sunset that was red through half the sky, and a sense of superiority became stronger and stronger.
Sima Nan asked, "Do you know about the reclamation?"
Theseus shook his head, he had been drifting with the trolls for a long time, and he was often isolated in the clan, although he had traveled a lot and had seen a lot, but he didn't know anything about history.
Sima Nan said helplessly: "Then you are familiar with Hu Ji." ”
Hu Ji is a character from a thousand years ago, the most powerful figure in the history of the troll clan, and for the trolls, Hu Ji is definitely their idol.
Xiusi pondered hard, and finally said, "That Hu Ji is a little impressed, what is he doing?"
Sima Nan looked very helpless, and looked at Xiusi with a bit of idiot eyes: "He is a very powerful troll, your ancestor, you really don't know?"
As if thinking of something, Hughes said, "Is it a troll? Could it be that the evil god slashed it?"
The corners of Sima Nan's mouth curled slightly, revealing a graceful arc, and said: "His nickname is One Knife Cut, because he always splits people in half with one knife when he kills." ”
Hughes was more of a thinker than any other troll child, wondering why he could fly in the sky with wings when he saw birds, and guessing how they breathed in the water when he saw fish...... At this time, he thought about Sima Nan's words from top to bottom, and suddenly asked, "Hu Ji...... Could it be that he borrowed that thing to make him so powerful?"
Sima Nan stared at Xiusi with novelty as if he had seen a new continent, "I actually summed up the correct answer from my words!" hesitation flashed in his eyes, and finally he slowly let go of his clenched hand and said: "It's almost the same, Hu Ji himself is also a master, but it was by borrowing that thing that he ascended to the realm of the gods." ”
The distribution of strength on the continent has changed from the weakest tendon training, to quenching the body, condensing qi, resisting qi, and then to the true god. The true god is just a legend, and for more than 2,000 years, no one has ever reached this realm. Therefore, Hu Ji has reached the realm of God, and it can also be said that he has stood at the apex of the world.
"One thing can reach the realm of godhood?" said Hughus, who for the first time saw the dawn of hope shining before his eyes. It's just that he is faintly afraid in his heart, afraid that hope is like a colorful bubble, although it is dazzling, but after it is broken, there is only a piece of nothingness.
"No, no, how can there be such a shortcut in the world?!" Theseus immediately vetoed in his heart.
"What happened to Hu Ji in the end?" Xiusi asked, looking up at Sima Nan.
Sima Nan felt more and more that Xiusi was smart, and the other party could always think of the key parts of the problem. "What happened to Hu Ji in the end? I don't know how you trolls recorded it?"
Hughes immediately said, "They say that Hu Ji finally broke through the limitations of this world and became a member of the true gods. Hughes spoke quickly, as if he desperately needed to know the final answer.
Sima Nan seemed calm and unhurried, and asked unhurriedly, "So what do you think?"
Theseus said with certainty: "He's dead!"
Sima Nan asked with interest, "Oh, why are you so sure?" ”
Xiusi showed a wry smile and replied casually: "If you really become a god, how can you destroy the kings of the Light God Sect." ”
Could it be that because the Bright Sect is still developing very well, it is concluded that Hu Ji is dead? Sima Nan guessed Xiusi's true thoughts, and said with a smile: "Hehe...... It seems that the trolls have a feud with the Illuminati, which is not easy to unravel. Yes, Hu Ji died in the end, but guess how he died. ”
Hughes spread out his palms, said with a finger, and said, "It is impossible to be killed, it is impossible to die of disease, it is impossible to die of old age." ”
Sima Nan asked again, "Why?"
Sima Nan asked in order, as if to find out what Xius really thought in his heart.
Theseus replied: "In the realm of the gods, who can easily kill him, if it is a group fight, it is impossible to die in obscurity, then we trolls naturally know that he was killed, and no one will say that he became a member of the true gods; as for death from illness, it is simply a joke to the gods, so there is no possibility of death from illness at all; in the same way, if it is old death, we trolls will not say that he has become a true god." So Hu Ji will definitely not be the above three ways to die. ”
"I think very thoroughly, and I say it well, but unfortunately these are some objective conjectures, children must still be children, how can they understand those people's sophistication. Sima Nan thought to himself, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He suddenly realized that he seemed a little happy when Hughes had misguessed wrong!
"Could it be that Xius actually put pressure on himself? Could it be that he is jealous of his cleverness, so he is especially happy when he makes a mistake?" Sima Nan felt a shadow in his heart.
Xiusi didn't hear Sima Nan's answer, and asked again, "Did I say something wrong?"
The haze flashed across Sima Nan's face, and he immediately showed a sunny smile again, and said, "That's right, Hu Ji is indeed not the three ways to die. He ended up going insane, and because he couldn't control that thing, he was devoured, his mind was controlled by anger, and he finally died of self-harm!"
Theseus asked in amazement, "How do you know?"
"How do I know?" Sima Nan asked with a smile, "Actually, there are many people who know this news, and the elders of your troll clan also know that it is only for the honor of the trolls that they say that Hu Ji has become a true god." ”
Sometimes people don't follow the facts and speak, they prefer to lie for the sake of face, for the sake of honor, for the sake of other nonsense. For this, Hughes obviously still can't see through.
The sun reluctantly captures its afterglow at the bottom of the mountain, and the darkness turns the sky with an irresistible force.
Xiusi watched the nasty sun finally get out, and his heart became clearer, and he said to Sima Nan hopefully: "If I find that thing, will I be able to take revenge?"
Sima Nan was surprised and said, "Huh...... Don't you hear that that thing is very dangerous, and it is not something that ordinary people can control!" When Sima Nan mentioned that thing to Xiusi, he expected that the other party would definitely inquire.
Hughes said with a resolute expression: "I just want to know if I can." ”
Sima Nan showed a smile that everything was under control: "Hehe...... Not necessarily, it's just that finding that thing increases your chances of success. ”
This sentence made Xiusi even more confident in his heart, and said, "It's enough! Where is that thing?" If Sima Nan had just replied with certainty that he could take revenge, Xiusi would have doubted the sincerity of the other party and suspected that the other party was fooling himself.
Sima Nan turned around slightly, stepped silently on the snow, and slowly left along the undulating mountain road. Xiusi was looking at Sima Nan longingly, and when he saw that he was suddenly leaving, he was stunned, and then he was shocked. Seeing that hope was in front of him, Xius was so anxious that he almost wanted to go up and pull people.
Sima Nan glanced back at Xiusi carelessly, and seemed to want to see through everything about Xiusi, and left a sentence lightly: "I don't know where that thing is." ”
Theseus froze in the boundless darkness......
Not a single star poked its head out of the sky, making the night sky as dark as dead ash, and the towering mountains slowly melted into the darkness with endless silence, leaving only huge black figures standing between heaven and earth.
Hughes stood motionless for more than an hour, his hope like a sharp knife, piercing his heart. He wanted to cheer up, but the lingering depression was like a net, densely wrapped around him, devouring him.
Xiusi slowly raised his head, shook his hand stiffly, then raised it and stroked his sore neck, and sighed softly as if resigned to his fate: "There is no free lunch in the world. ”
"Alas...... It's a free lunch!"
"Coo-coo...... Under the dark and quiet night sky, this cooing sound came suddenly and loudly.
The sudden hunger was like a giant hand, and all the strength of his body was exhausted at once, and then Xius remembered that he had not eaten for nearly a day. His attention had been so drawn to something else that he couldn't take care of his stomach at all. Now when he inadvertently said "lunch", his stomach was like a glass of water with sulfuric acid added, and the reaction was particularly intense.
Xius groped his way to the valley, and although the robbers had smashed and burned last night, it was still possible to find something to eat.
Black charcoal-like food mixed with spotless white snow, and Hughes gobbled it up.
The cold weather seems to freeze people's enthusiasm, and when night falls, the figures on the streets look very thin. Occasionally, there was a sound of footsteps coming from somewhere, but it was just a patrolling vigilante.
Since Batan took over his father's territory, he has been reforming the land system and tax system, striving to improve the people's living standards and protect people's lives and property.
The City Lord's Mansion is located in the northeast corner of Lingdong City, and while the residents of all directions are forced to sleep in the cold and darkness, the City Lord's Mansion is still brightly lit, and Batan is even more immersed in his large and quiet courtyard to deal with cases.
A dark shadow pierced the sky and landed silently in Batan's moat. Immediately, four figures burst out of the corner, trapping the black shadow in a closed circle.
"Your men are getting better and better. Sima Nan praised, but he still had a proud smile on his face.
"As a nobleman, why don't you always like to go through the front door? Batan smiled as he walked inside the room and motioned for the four of his men to leave.
Seeing this, the four figures disappeared in all directions of the courtyard like ghosts. (To be continued.) )
