Chapter Seventy-Six: The Proof of the Way
Ye Yi was speechless when he heard this, and said, "You mean, the aura of the Spirit Tribulation is like an enemy, you must be beaten by him, and you can't heal your injuries after the fight?"
Tianlan couldn't help but smile when he heard his analogy, and said, "Your analogy is very appropriate, although it's not entirely true. Let me put it simply, the people who appear in the world start to awaken at the age of five, and if there is no accident, they can basically only live to the age of ten!"
"Ten years old?!" the corners of Ye Yi's mouth twitched, and he said, "Then how old are you?"
Tianlan smiled: "I'm talking about the general situation! I'm seventeen years old, and as for why I can live so many more years, it's the reason. He opened the collar of his shirt a little, revealing the black jade lock embedded in his chest. The black jade lock is jet black and dull, and it looks plain, but it is embedded in the flesh and blood, and it seems that it can't be taken down.
"Oh, what is this? Do you hurt?" Ye Yi felt a tingling of his scalp when he imagined a foreign object embedded in his flesh. Although this black lock is not big, it must be very uncomfortable embedded in the chest!
He shook his head and said, "This is the Dark Spirit Lock. Didn't the two men in black keep saying that I was the bearer of the Dark Treasure? This is the Dark Treasure, something similar to the Golden Scale Pot. ”
"That broken pot, you say?" Ye Yi quickly remembered the horror of the Golden Scale Pot, the corpses that were shriveled by it were all shriveled like ghosts, and Ye Yi was still terrified when they found the bodies of several murdered mercenaries.
Tianlan said: "Well, the role of the Golden Scale Pot is to collect the spirit and help the law, and the role of the dark spirit lock is to lock the spirit and imprison. ”
Before he could explain further, the anxious Ye Yi asked, "What is the Lock Spirit Confinement?"
"I was about to say, don't worry. Tianlan was indifferent, as if he was talking about something that was not his own business, but an unrelated matter, "The ability of the dark spirit lock is extremely peculiar, and it is unique in the world. It can not only block a person's movements, but also imprison half of the person's aura! However, if the owner of the secret treasure blocks his aura, it can imprison sixty percent of the aura. ”
It was precisely because the dark spirit lock imprisoned most of the aura on his body for him that he was not torn to pieces by the raging aura.
"Hey, why are you abusing yourself so much!" Ye Yi stood up directly excitedly, not happy but angry. With such treasures, not on others but on yourself, isn't it unpleasant?
"What are you excited about?" Tianlan glanced at him and continued, "Didn't I say it, the aura of the Spirit Tribulation is too strong, and it is difficult for ordinary people's bodies to withstand it, let alone me. Now that this body has reached the verge of collapse, it can only withstand the aura of the early stage of the five stars at most, no matter how much it ...... I'm afraid I won't have to wait half a year......"
Ye Yi sat down again, very worried about him, and said, "Is there no other way?"
Tianlan was silent for a long time before shaking his head and saying, "I don't know...... I've looked for a lot of information, but I haven't found any. I don't think so......"
"Don't put on such a face, I should only live to be ten years old, because I got the spirit lock by chance, so I can live until now, I should be content, right? I am much happier than Han Xuelian, I have lived for seven more years!" He deliberately changed to a relaxed tone, but when he heard it, Ye Yi felt even more sad.
Han Xuelian was in a daze and lived happily for five years, but Tianlan watched himself get closer and closer to death every day, and at the same time worried about the problem of the Spirit Tribulation, his mood was probably not understandable.
Ye Yi didn't know how Tianlan came to life, he was just sad for him, thinking of what Tianlan had said before, his heart was even more sad, he turned his head and choked up: "I've been crying enough in the past few days, don't let me cry anymore, okay?"
Tianlan's expression slowed down and said, "...... I'm sorry, I don't want to say that either. He just wanted to see the world as an ordinary person, and make a few friends if he had the opportunity, the kind of friend who did not mix any interests and relied on his heart to connect. He didn't want to win the sympathy of others with his lifespan, and he didn't want to annoy others because of it, so he kept avoiding it. But since Ye Yi asked today, hiding from him would only make him more awkward.
"What are you sorry for!I want you to say it!" Ye Yi secretly wiped away his tears and said loudly, "Hey! Don't say anything, there's no way! Heaven is endless! I've decided, let's find a way to save you in the future, okay? Isn't it still a long time? The old man said that there are many strange people and strange things in the world! There is even such a thing as rebirth, there must be a way to save you!"
“...... Thank you. Tianlan has always had an indescribable sense of estrangement towards him since Ling Xiao City, and it wasn't until he swore to say these words after confessing to him today, that Tianlan could be regarded as truly accepting him as a friend.
"But ......" Although he had some good intentions, Tianlan didn't think that looking for such an illusory method would be effective, and wanted to persuade him not to waste his time in vain.
"Oh! Don't come and go!You're definitely not going to say anything positive, so I won't listen!" Ye Yi hurriedly interrupted him, Tianlan seemed very confident in other things, but he was always lacking in confidence in this matter.
"Say something else!By the way, didn't you say that you started to awaken your memories at the age of five?, so how many memories do you recall now?" Ye Yi cleverly began to change the subject.
"This ...... I haven't counted it yet. Tianlan thought for a moment and said, "The average spirit tribulation is twice a year, or maybe it doesn't happen once a year, and the average memory of each awakening is ten lifetimes, starting from the age of five to the present...... It's probably more than 200 years of memory......"
"Two hundred lifetimes?!" Ye Yi was dumbfounded, folded his fingers and counted for a long time, and said, "According to the life expectancy of a normal person, a hundred years in a lifetime, don't you have a memory of 20,000 years?...... Oh my God, I don't think you really need to call the old black dragon 'senior'......" After Tianlan's nod, Ye Yi sighed. Tianlan said before that ordinary reincarnation is a normal hidden world, and it is difficult to encounter a manifestation like him once in hundreds of lifetimes, so the memory of each life is basically complete.
"Yes, so I've done a lot of things like murder and arson, torture and confession. Tianlan said leisurely. Indeed, in 20,000 years of memory, almost everything has happened. Moreover, it seems to be by nature, his personality is tenacious and persistent in every life, he never gives up lightly when he sees a goal, and he can often go far on a road. Tianlan is already a relatively casual personality in this life, but he is still terrible about his commitment, and he only admits that he is a wind warlock, no matter how exquisite the alchemy array technique is, he never refuses to admit that he is a physician array mage. It's just because he chose one of the "wind" paths in this life, not the medical path, the array path, or the qin path.
It may seem like nothing to others, but for Tianlan, the "Tao" chosen in his life is very important. Because he has countless memories, the memories of each life are several times of his short life, and each life is wonderful, if there is no different persistence, sooner or later he will be lost in the ocean of memories and forget himself. The wind is his representative, and it is the most powerful proof of the existence of "Tianlan" in this world! Otherwise, how can we distinguish whether he is "Tianlan", "Xu Yinsheng", or someone else?
The same soul, the same memory, only the traces left by the real experience of the past 17 years can prove that "Tianlan" really existed......
