Black Sun Chapter 114: The Back of a Wise Man
114 Chapter 114 The Back of a Wise Man
The old man was dressed in a long robe made of shiny black crow feathers, and his palms as white as a child pointed to the green chess pieces he played.
"The other side has an afterlife." The old man said: "Life surrounds death, death is alive and stayed, injuries are born and destroyed, injuries are good, injuries are survived, and death is survived." ”
"Complicated." Ling Yun put away his sword, walked slowly to the chessboard, looked at it for a while, and thought for a while: "Life kills, death kills, injuries kills, life saves injuries, injuries save death, death saves lives, surround is to kill, and side is to save." ”
"Can Baige kill?" Ling Yun frowned.
"Yes." The old man affirmed.
"In that case, let's have a game over there." Ling Yun smiled: "However, the chess pieces are too boring......"
"Boring? Are you trying to gamble? The old man was dumbfounded: "You don't have a bet." ”
"No, I think I have." Ling Yun smiled slightly: "I won you a son, you answer me a question." ”
"How about you lose my son?" The old man said, "You don't want to say that there is no such possibility. ”
"No, I'll lose you a son, and I'll answer you the same question." Ling Yun said.
"You're so confident." The old man smiled: "Then let's start." ”
The two of them knew that in fact, the old man wanted to ask far fewer questions than Ling Yun.
This game of chess is ambitious, and Ling Yun's intentions are too arrogant.
Ling Yun was a novice, and the old man could see it from Ling Yun's first son, but when the tenth son fell, Ling Yun was almost swallowed.
"Almost, alas, alas, alas." The old man sighed: "If you play chess too fast, you will become addicted to the corners of your eyes." ”
Ling Yun smiled and didn't speak.
"So, my first son." After a while, Ling Yun took the first piece of the whole game from the chessboard.
It was a son who was killed by Ling Yun when he returned to the starting point after spinning the board in the fierce battle of the chessboard.
"My master, who was Ye Guyun before?" Ling Yun asked.
"You're in a hurry, or I'll win it back if you play a pawn." The old man calmly played a chess piece.
"Who is Ye Guyun now?" Ling Yun made another shot and picked up one from the chessboard again.
"This ......," the old man frowned, and then finally saw the clue.
"You'll be swallowed by me at least fifteen, and you'll lose." Ling Yun clicked and was another chess piece.
The old man groaned and did not speak.
After a long time, the old man finally spoke, he sighed, turned his hand and withdrew the chessboard, served a table of herbal drinks, took a glass, and moistened his throat alone.
Ye Guyun ...... Ye Guyun in history is a guy who is hated by others, but almost all the old people who survived have become his subordinates. ”
Ling Yun was slightly moved, but his face was still unmoved, and it wasn't until the old man said the next words that he really showed a moved look.
"Ye Guyun, born in a small family in the Second Era, he was gifted against the sky and successfully ended the War of the Gods at the end of the Second Era, achieved the strongest name, ascended to the top of the God Domain, and became the king of the gods!"
"What?!" Ling Yun had heard the old man talk about his own history, but he never mentioned these specific things.
Unfortunately, the god-king is dead.
Ling Yun instantly thought of all the things before, but he already had some clear understanding in his heart.
"It's a pity, Ye Guyun has failed us." The old man put down the cup and said with a smile: "He actually wanted to achieve [equality of all beings], and unknowingly arranged a lot of things, but fortunately, he was finally discovered. ”
"He wants to sacrifice the gods and use the blood of the gods to open the door to the so-called [equality of all beings]!"
"The Divine Domain was turned upside down because of this, and in the end, the Divine Domain was dismembered by [Equality of All Beings], the gods were killed and injured countless times, and Ye Guyun was killed."
When the old man said these words, he deliberately controlled not to say too much, nor did he dare to say too little, but every bit of it was full of passionate emotions, and a breeze was fanned by the crow feathers on his body.
"So, Ye Guyun is just a dead man."
The old man finally calmed down, drank one glass, poured another one, and pondered alone.
The two of them sat under the giant tree, but they were silent, Ling Yun was digesting the old man's words, and the old man was thinking of many things that had passed a long time in a daze.
"What about Ye Guyun now?" Ling Yun said: "Ye Guyun is dead, who am I encountering?" ”
"Did that Ye Guyun you meet ever say such a thing to you?" The old man said lightly: "There is only one Lone Star Sword Saint. ”
"You should be able to understand the mystery here, but you don't or don't dare to think in that direction." The old man laughed.
"Ye Guyun is dead, and what survives is just an inheritance, a sword, and an obsession." The old man said, "So, if you live, he will really die." ”
"I see." Ling Yun said.
That's why those people hunted him down like this, and wanted to destroy him like this, even though so much time had passed.
"I still have a lot of questions, and I hope you can answer them for me." Ling Yun said.
"You're not here today to ask questions, are you?" The old man smiled: "Of course, I still owe you thirteen questions, you don't have to worry about me cheating you." ”
"In fact, I have received help from others in the magic tower of the Flower Dynasty, and I know a lot about the ancient civilization era, and it is precisely because of this that I found you." Ling Yun said, "However, neither the [Catalogue of the Gods] nor any other book will mention the cause of the wars that destroyed the previous eras. ”
"So, you want to ask me why the old era was ruined, why we did it, right?" The old man sighed: "This is not an area you should touch, at least the reason for it is not what you should know now. ”
"At the very least, I wish I could know a little bit." Ling Yun said, "Why did the War of the Gods happen after the Second Age, and why did the Third Age fall!?" Isn't that enough to interest me? ”
"I don't lie to you, but you know, maybe ......," the old man said, "but the people above me don't want you to know too much." ”
"Too much?"
"The Third Age is too bleak...... After this, we split into two factions, and then the hatred began to build until that gate opened and the battle intensified. The old man didn't say much, but said a few words vaguely.
However, the amount of information in these few sentences alone had already made Ling Yun frown.
"What are the two factions?" Ling Yun asked.
"Chaos and order." The old man laughed.
In fact, what Lingyun didn't know was that the two factions would be announced soon, and players would begin to join the various factions and really begin to integrate into the world.
"Is there any difference between the two factions?" Ling Yun tried to knock out some secrets from here.
"Chaos advocates that the strong should stand, and order advocates fairness and justice." The old man is like an answering machine, but he always pays attention to the proportions in his words and never says much.
"You can also see that the current Tenglong Continent is controlled by the order side and most of the territory."
"So, can you tell me which part of the Southern Wastelands belongs to?" Ling Yun was even more puzzled.
"Neutral." The old man said lightly.
"How can you possibly tolerate the presence of neutrals?! And, don't forget that you're now in the so-called neutral zone. Ling Yun smiled.
The old man's explanation was too far-fetched.
"Yes, I'm in neutral territory right now. As for why I'm here, I'm here for you. The old man glanced at the sun in the sky: "From the back side of the world." ”
"......" Lingyun was silent.
"Who are the people above you?" Ling Yun asked.
"Above us? What do you mean by "we"? The old man took a sip of the water.
"Chaos and order."
"Above chaos are the [Reincarnation Heaven] and [Great Luo Heaven] Lord, and above the order are the [Most Holy Heaven] and the [Universal Heaven]." The old man has respect for the first two adults, but he only maintains at least respect for the last two big men.
"What is the origin of them to be your adults?" Ling Yun asked suspiciously.
"The heavens are the children of the Mother Goddess, don't you see these sentences in those history books?" The old man laughed.
"No, I'm asking why they are your lords and guide your actions?"
"Chaos and order were brought up by them at the end of the Third Age, and it was thanks to their guidance that the gods were able to stop the war, and the world was saved from the brink of fragmentation."
"......" As a celestial god, a true superior, he could still say such a thing, Ling Yun couldn't help but be interested in the heavens.
"That means they're the culprits behind the destruction of the post-Third Age, right?" Ling Yun pursed his lips and seemed to have guessed the old man's answer.
"It's not." The old man said these two words lightly, unwilling to say more.
"There is a god in the Catalogue of Gods, whose name is Athena, do you know where she came from? I mean, I'd like to hear it more specifically. ”
"The heroic goddess stepped forward to save the people from danger. Just like it says in the Catalogue of the Gods. The old man said, "I have a close relationship with the adults of the neutral god system, and my position in the neutral god system is about the same as mine. ”
"Neutral gods?!" Ling Yun didn't even expect this.
"That's right, the neutral gods are proponents of chaotic neutrality and order neutrality." The old man said, "You should be able to guess that the adult of the neutral god system is Lord [Liulitian]. ”
"I see, that's why there is a neutral god system." Ling Yun thought for a moment and asked, "I want to know the rank of the god position and the role of the godhead. ”
"God is just a title, and it is generally used to refer to those who have achieved the transformation of divine power through the [Godhead]." The old man said: "The gods are divided into three classes: the lower gods, the upper gods, and the main gods, and there are countless subdivisions under them, and it is difficult to say them all. ”
"What about the gods of heaven?!" After listening to what the old man said, Ling Yun suddenly realized one thing, that is, the old man did not include the gods in the ranks of gods.
"Celestial? Hehe, the gods are not gods. The old man smiled mysteriously: "The gods are the people after the transformation, and the gods are ...... It's another higher creature, and now that you know that, why bother with it? ”
"Once the gods make a move, even the gods will have to be caught, let alone you." The old man looked at Ling Yun and said, "So, you are lucky and unlucky. What if you knew how the hierarchy of the gods was divided? ”
"I don't think it's an answer to this question."
"Who killed my master?" Ling Yun asked suddenly.
"This is an eternal question, and the death of every god-king is a mystery for the ages." The old man sighed: "Since you have become a god king, how many people do you think can kill them?" ”
"However, if the God King does not die, how can the times change?" The old man looked at the sky.
There are thirteen bright moons in the sky, and Ling Yun has seen the strong people quietly write in the book that the thirteen bright moons are thirteen great sorrows.
At that time, he did not know the history of this world, and when he really understood the truth of history, the great sorrow was like in front of him.
Epochs have passed, and the living are still fighting, still creating new moons, and still continuing the path of hatred and being hated in ignorance.
"Could it be that the deaths of two generations of god-kings were killed by the same person?" Ling Yun thought of this possibility: "It's really a huge game. ”
"Or someone will know." The old man said, "But he was unwilling or afraid to say it. ”
"Who?" Ling Yun asked in surprise.
"The god of craftsmen."
"An ordinary god?" Ling Yun frowned, unable to believe it.
"No, he's a god among the gods." The old man laughed.
His smile had a different meaning, Ling Yun couldn't read it, he couldn't see it clearly, but his words shocked Ling Yun.
The god of the gods?!
"The god of the gods?!" Ling Yun muttered.
"Hehe, nominally he deserves to be called that." The old man said, "At least, when the God King is not dead." ”
"......" Lingyun didn't know why he suddenly remembered the waiting room when he entered the game.
In the waiting room, there were thirteen murals, which once deeply shocked Ling Yun.
"What the hell ......is the God of Craftsmen," Ling Yun wanted to ask again, but was interrupted by the old man.
"You've asked enough fifteen questions." The old man said, "Then let this section pass." ”
Ling Yun glanced at the old man and asked, "Why are you helping me so much?" ”
"It's just a good match." The old man said, "I believe you also know, in fact, not everyone hates you, otherwise at that time, the adults will order to come down, and only the gods will come to hunt you down." ”
"Do you believe that I can grow up in the future, so to speak?" Ling Yun said.
"That's right, that's why." The old man said, "No matter how you stand in line in the future, in the end I have formed a good fate, and besides, you may not be able to bring me benefits." ”
"Just like you came to me today, didn't you bring me benefits?" The old man laughed.
"Yes, I have come to consult with you today about the establishment of the kingdom of God." Ling Yun sighed.
"What price do you want?" The old man asked.
"Shelter the Imperial Maiden Flower and help me leave this continent, and at the same time, I will let the Imperial Maiden Flower help you achieve the Kingdom of God." Ling Yun said.
"Yes."
"You don't have any other conditions?" Ling Yun was a little surprised.
"You don't really know what the kingdom of God really means, do you?" The old man smiled: "What's more, according to what I said before, helping you grow up is also helping ourselves." ”
"You're so confident." Ling Yun said.
"Think of it as my confidence." The old man smiled.
"There are two ways to leave this continent under the barrier of the world wall." The old man took a sip of tea and said, "First, I know that you have been to the northern fish-man country. ”
"Is the legend of the end of the sea true?"
"No, in fact that's just a rumor, but a hundred years ago, there was a strong man in the shark-man tribe further north of the fish-man country who secretly opened a gap in the wall of the world." The old man seemed to know this very well: "They have established the Fish-Man Kingdom in other capital continents, of course, this has happened hundreds of years ago. ”
"You should also know who the founder of the Fishman Realm is, she used to be Ye Guyun's woman, and she fell into a deep sleep because of Ye Guyun's death in the last battle, but you woke her up not long ago." The old man said, "So, just by passing through her, you can borrow the passage of the shark man." ”
"However, what I learned in the Fish-Man Realm is that the Shark-People have betrayed their mother."
"No, the Shark-Man never betrayed, and you'll know when the time comes." The old man said.
"......" Ling Yun thought for a moment, and then asked, "Then, what about the second way?" ”
"The second method is simple, but it's difficult." The old man said, "Just find the stone giant." ”
"Golem?"
"That's right, I'm sure you've seen a similar legend, that is, the stone giant that keeps moving forward, as long as you climb on top of the stone giant, you can leave this continent with you." The old man said, "When I catch the Golem's tracks, I'll let you know." ”
"Don't you need to do anything else?" Ling Yun asked cautiously.
"No, I don't."
"Golem can actually hit the world wall?!" Ling Yun was a little surprised by this fact.
"Alright. With that out of the way, it's time for you to leave. The old man said, "Maybe you came in a hurry, and you don't know anything yet." ”
"What's the matter?"
"The flower is dead, and the whole flower disappears, turning into a field similar to the Giant Basin." The old man laughed.
"What?!" Ling Yun stood up in surprise.
"You heard it right, so, you're probably going to be busy next." The old man said.
"Well, it looks like I'm leaving." After Ling Yun finished speaking, he turned around and suddenly remembered that he had been forcibly teleported.
"I'll send you back, and I'll keep your friend waiting." The old man pointed his finger slightly, and a silver-white portal appeared in front of Ling Yun.
"We'll see you again in the future." Ling Yun turned his head and walked towards the portal.
"Wait a minute." Ling Yun walked a few steps and suddenly stopped, turning his head to look at the old man.
"Actually, I have a question for you." Ling Yun said.
"What's the problem?"
"Do you know ......" Ling Yun covered his face with his hand, and then as if the curtain was opened, his hand slowly pulled down, revealing his face little by little: "'Me'?" ”
“!?” The old man looked at Ling Yun's face little by little, and then his face changed little by little like hot water melting ice, and when he saw Ling Yun's face thoroughly, his eyes widened even more, and the whole person jumped up from the chair.
It was rare for the old man to lose his temper like this in his long years, and if the other gods of the Chaos God System saw this scene, they would probably be shocked and speechless.
Even when he told Ling Yun about the history of the First and Second Epochs just now, the old man didn't do so.
As if fireworks flashed in a hurry, Ling Yun quickly pulled up his hand to cover his face, blurring Ling Yun's face again.
"Glass...... Wrong. The old man lost his mind for a while, and finally looked at Ling Yun several times in a panic: "Could it be that Lord Liuli really passed through the gate of the world?" Impossible, absolutely impossible...... No, he's not Liulitian, he's definitely not...... What the hell is wrong......
The old man held his head and thought for a long time, but he never got an answer that he could recognize.
"You, very similar to a celestial lord." The old man sighed, picked up a cup of tea with trembling hands, put it to his lips and took two sips.
"Neutral God Lady Liuli, you are similar to Liulitian-sama!" The old man glanced at Ling Yun's blurred face again: "This is incredible!" ”
During this time when the old man was shocked and thinking, Ling Yun just watched all this quietly.
In his thoughts, countless pieces of information began to come together.
He thought of a lot, including the supercomputer on Baffin Island outside, the Mother Goddess!
For a moment, he seemed to connect everything, but, when he thought about it, he had no clue.
He just figured things out a little bit.
"Why don't you say he looks like me?" Ling Yun smiled slightly.
"This ......" The old man was stunned, and then thought of a lot.
History is always so bizarre, life is always in a state of confusion, and no one can tell how you came to be, or how much ignorance awaits you in the middle of the mountain.
"I'm leaving." Ling Yun turned his head and walked towards the portal.
The old man didn't speak, but he calmed down, he looked at Ling Yun's back, and there was an indescribable feeling in his heart, in a long time, he finally experienced this feeling again, very fresh, very beautiful.
The giant tree on the heads of the two suddenly bloomed, and in an instant, the flowers bloomed and fell like snow, and the flowers flew and danced into a sea.
Ling Yun looked up at the rain-like petals, turned his head to look at the old man who was smiling at him, and stepped into the teleportation array.
