Chapter 679: Elven King
"Wow, am I having a nightmare?!"
Xu Ning danced and pulled the leaves on his body, but when he opened his eyes, he found that his body was intact and there was nothing. But the surrounding environment has changed!
It turns out that you are in a splendid palace! Could it be that it was just a trick? I was swept into a new space.
"Kid, you've worked hard."
"Ahh
Xu Ning hurriedly turned around and was immediately stunned! In front of him, in the same golden light, sat an old man with white eyebrows and a kind face. His figure is too tall, Xu Ning is not as tall as he is sitting when he stands! A pair of eyes were full of love and joy, as if Xu Ning was a child who had been away from home for many days, and finally waited for him to come back.
He had a classical golden light on his head, but he was wearing very ordinary linen clothes, holding a scepter in his hand, and the light around him didn't know where it came from.
"You, you are, Elf King!"
"Yes, my child."
"My child? My baby? ”
"You have brought my child back, and you are also my child, please allow me to use such a noble name!" The Elven King said with a kind smile.
I don't know why, Xu Ning has an urge to cry? Is that kind of light too dazzling? No, it's not, it's a feeling that directly affects his heart, and Xu Ning saw a beautiful feeling in the smile of the elf king. At this moment, even a vicious person will be indoctrinated, what is this power?
The anger in Xu Ning's body seemed to be pulled out by a force, and his eyes, which had always been vigilant and nervous, also relaxed. It became softer.
"Qianlong's crystal jade, did you bring it too?"
"Qianlong? Do you mean the elven queen? Xu Ning said in surprise, how could she be called Qianlong?
The Elf King stretched out a hand and moved his fingers slightly, and the crystal charm in Xu Ning's arms actually flew up by itself and slowly fell into the hands of the Elf King. Xu Ning was surprised. I'm even more worried about how the Elf King will react when he sees this crystal pendant. Regardless of the species, the response to death should be the same.
"Qianlong left her own message, and these powders are proof that she has entered another dimension."
Unexpectedly, the Elf King was very calm, and Xu Ning didn't understand it. Isn't that elven queen his child? The children are already dead, and he is not sad at all?
"Xu Ning, I understand your intentions very well, but this is Qianlong's fate, her mission in the Soul Continent has been completed very well. In the elven altar, she will be reborn, and this crystal charm is her memory before her death. The Elf King said with a slight smile.
"I see!" Xu Ning breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that I had worked so hard to get here, just to send a memory.
"It's not that we elves can't die, it's just that memories can be preserved, and they can be left to the reincarnated life, so that it looks as if they are immortal. But how can there be such a thing in this world? Life. Originally, it was a continuous cycle, and life and death were just different states of existence. ”
"Elven King. Why did you leave Qianlong alone in the Soul Continent? Xu Ning held back this question for a long time, and couldn't help but ask.
"That's where she has to be." The Elf King smiled and said, "You should also know that Qianlong is the god of war in the night, she is the elf queen in charge of the darkness, and the darkness has the most places." It's the Soul Continent. ”
"The elven clan also used to survive on the soul continent, since they know that there is darkness there, why not save it, but hide from it." Xu Ning muttered.
"I know I have a lot of questions, but I can't answer them all at once. Because I can't put into words a complex world of life. All human beings have to follow certain rules, and these rules are often changed due to human beings' own reasons, human beings continue to dive into the world of other life, change it or even destroy it, but often because of human participation, that world is more colorful. The Elven King said.
"Maybe I'm too persistent, but Qian Long once told me that as long as I fulfill my promise, after arriving here, I will be able to obtain the power to bring peace to the Soul Continent."
"Then you may be disappointed, I don't have any power to give you here!" The Elf King said with a smile.
"But ......," Xu Ning said disappointedly, "I've seen the power of the overseas fairyland, isn't it too boring for you to say that?" ”
"Sue me, child, what do you see?"
"I saw powerful magic! Sharp weapons! Tough Elven warriors! Xu Ning raised his head and raised his voice and said.
"So, do you think you need such power to achieve peace?"
"I don't know, the only thing I know is that peace cannot be obtained by preaching, let alone by illusions, by the gifts of others."
"You're right, but I also have a problem." The Elven King's expression was always kind, "The Elven Kingdom has such a powerful power, but it has been staying here and not using it, so, does this power make sense?" ”
"This ......"
"Such a powerful force is enough to conquer the Soul Continent, and the Elven Royal Clan really wants the Soul Continent to be peaceful, why not use such a power?"
"How do I know ......"
Xu Ning lowered his head, unable to answer this question.
"Because relying on force to bring someone to their knees is like using an external force to hold down a spring. When the external force is strong, you will not see any resistance, but after this force gradually weakens, the spring will gradually bounce up, you need to know that this symbolic spring power, will never weaken, it will only get stronger and stronger. A long, long time ago, we elves were also involved in that huge chaos, and our combat power was also incomparable, and the elves naively thought that after destroying the demons, peace would come to the whole time, and it turned out that we were wrong. ”
"So, the former elven king, just sit here and do nothing?"
"I've been thinking about how to go back, and after many years, I'm ashamed that I haven't found any way. Because there is a natural flaw in the human heart, a black hole, a black hole that cannot be filled. ”
"I can't push it until I do it all over again."
Xu Ning suddenly muttered in a low voice, but this sentence made the Elf King's face change slightly.
"Ever again?"
"That's right! Isn't it? Xu Ning raised his head and said, "As an elf king, there is naturally nothing wrong with compassion, but you have already begun to fear failure, afraid of death caused by the war, and not to save the sinking soul continent!" What's so about it? You yourself said that life and death are just two states of life, and life can also be reincarnated and reborn, so why not give the Soul Continent a chance to get a new life!? Wildfires have burned into the grass, and when spring comes, it can sprout again! ”
"You, why did you suddenly have such thoughts?"
Xu Ning smiled slightly, after facing the Elf King for so long, he finally didn't seem so restrained.
"I'm just going to do what you think. The elves themselves are hiding because they are afraid of their own power! Think that you are too strong and too kind, and beware of excessive resistance and more deaths due to your own power. But don't you want to think about it, isn't this going to kill more people? In the face of a powerful force, people will not dare to act rashly because of common fear, but when everyone raises their knives and has the ability to hurt each other, the whole continent is the time of blood. ”
The Elven King froze, and he slowly rose from his throne, which was a living chair, made of countless golden rattans. As the Elven King moved, the rattan slowly transformed, forming a handrail.
"My child, your words seem to awaken a sleeping conscience in me, I don't know if I should listen to your advice, but I know how to help you. Do what you think! And I don't want to organize you anything. ”
A ray of golden light shot out from the scepter and entered Xu Ning's eyebrows!
Xu Ning stood in place in a daze, feeling a warm brow on his eyebrows, as if the wound was slowly healing and scabbing.
"I give you the mark of the noblest friend of the Elven Royal Family, and for a period of time in the future, you can walk on the Elven Continent at will and get what you want. I believe that with the kindness of your heart, you may be able to find a better way. The responsibility of our elves has been handed over to you. ”
"This ......" Xu Ning was stunned, he touched his forehead with his hand in surprise!
Have I become one of the elves? No, of course not, this mark should be more noble than the average elf!
"Go, my child!" The Elf King's scepter continued to glow, and Xu Ning saw that his body had reappeared with rattans and leaves, but this time he was no longer afraid, and quietly closed his eyes. (To be continued......)
