Chapter 693: The Gods and the Mighty
These people with supernatural abilities cannot be tolerated in the eyes of the gods, so others who have not received divine powers have a perfect excuse to vent their frustrations. They regarded these people with magical abilities as evil and began to purge and strangle them in a complete way.
For a time, those who possessed the power were regarded as a thorn in their side, and they had to abandon their wives and children to wander around, or to cover up the fact that they had the ability, but their children would also inherit this power and be burned at the stake.
Zang Gu calmed his breath a little, as if thinking back to the past years gave him an urge to regain the blood that had already calmed down, to think of those years when he was dominated by pain, when he was still an ignorant and impulsive boy, thinking that he could save the world with his powers.
But at that moment, the person with the ability was hated by everyone, but in private, some executives and nobles still preserved this power, this divine power is very tempting, and being able to touch the edge of God is something that everyone dreams of, so on the one hand, the executives are chasing and killing the ability at the same time, on the other hand, they want to introduce this power into their own family.
His mother was a man with powers, she was only four years old when she was hunted down, and his grandfather took a fancy to her abilities, so he raised her in a tower, and when she was fourteen years old, he married her to Zang Gu's father, and he was born.
He had always been taught and studied with the strictest of conditions, and he could not even leave his dwelling even half a step. Since birth, she has been carried away from her mother. Then my mother fell seriously ill, and then she died.
Those people tacitly took those monks who were going to be executed to their secret palace, and then threatened him with their lives to teach, Zang Gu has a strong learning ability, so he changed three teachers at the beginning, and his father often praised him, he was very fond of the first teacher, and asked where the teacher was, and his father said that he gave them a good reward and left.
He felt a little depressed, but he still remembered his first enlightenment teacher, so he often asked where he went, hoping to see him again one day.
He had four older brothers and two older sisters, but none of them were valued as much as their father, so they also attracted resentment from their siblings, and one day, his brother looked at him and sneered, "Do you really want to find your master?" ”
"I want to see him! Brother, do you know where he is? Zang Gu felt very excited.
"Of course I do, but you don't necessarily have the guts to go." The brother's smile was very mysterious.
"I'll go!" He stood up angrily.
Zang Gu followed him to the back mountain, this was one of the few moments he could come out, and he was hiding from his father, he was very nervous, nervous, and followed his brother to a misty forest.
There was a cold smell in this forest, and he felt that it was a little creepy, but he couldn't resist his brother's cynicism at him, so he still walked inside
Face.
The forest was extremely dark and extremely cold, and the wind poured into his clothes, and he trembled, and heard the roar of an unknown beast not far away, and he was startled, and finally couldn't help it, ran to his brother's side, and asked, "Master, does he really live here?" ”
"What reason do I have to lie to you?" The elder brother smiled coldly, guided him to the edge of the hanging bank, pointed down, and said, "If you don't believe it, just look down." The teacher you're looking for is below. ”
He was stunned, and looked under the cliff without thinking about anything, but he was suddenly pushed behind him and fell down all at once!
But he was dead, and a branch at the bottom of the cliff hung him.
It was because of this that he desperately barely grabbed the branch, and shouted for help in fright, and his brother poked his head out of the edge of the cliff, he had never seen his brother look like this, he was actually laughing!
"Brother! Brother save me! ”
The elder brother leaned over and crouched down.
"Brother, your child is really strange, you said that I would take you to see your master, didn't I bring you here just to fulfill your wish?"
He stood up and smiled heartily, "Your master is right under this Wanren Canyon." ”
Even if he was young and ignorant, but now he understood what his brother meant, and his whole body became cold, "Master, he? Master, he's dead?!! ”
"Of course, it's not just your master down there, I remember you've changed four or five teachers, right? Aren't you happy to see them all this time? My good brother? ”
He laughed maniacally.
"Why?" Zang Gu tried his best to climb up, "Master, why did you kill them?" ”
"My poor brother, do you really think that your father loves you very much?" The elder brother looked at him with pity, "You have really been blinded for too long...... A child like you shouldn't have been born in the first place! ”
Zang Gu thundered to the top.
"What does that mean?"
"Do you know why your father never let you out? Because you can't see people, if your magical constitution is discovered, our family will be doomed, so my father locked you in the house. Can't let anyone know that you'...... It's someone in our family! ”
"......" Zang Gu's face already had a painful look. He really couldn't hold on to the branch anymore.
"You should be glad that you can live so long. By the way, your father must have told you that your mother was sick and died, right? ”
Zang Gu was stunned.
The elder brother cracked his smile and said, "Ah, of course it was a lie, your mother was disposed of as a paranormal after giving birth to you." ”
“… What the?! Zang Gu's eyes widened.
"If you don't believe me, you can ask someone else, your mother is just a tool. They wanted the power of her blood, to bring that lowly ability into her family in case something happened
Yes, so I'm helping you, you know, brother? I pity you for being taken advantage of at such a young age, so ...... I'm here to help you, brother. ”
He smiled, and without waiting for Zang Gu to come to his senses, he drew his sword and cut off the precarious branch.
……
Zang Gu closed his eyes, as if he felt tired from thinking about these things.
He rubbed his eyebrows and turned his gaze to Huang Mo on the side.
She was still listening to his story carefully and carefully, and when she heard his last words, she gasped in a low voice.
"And then?"
She leaned in as if she hadn't heard enough, and her nerves tensed to see the sadness hidden in the shadows of his eyes.
"And ......," Elder Zang Gu had a somewhat sour smile on the corner of his mouth.
Of course, he is immortal, as a person with extraordinary abilities, when he fell, he was saved by his own burst of desire to survive, although he was unscathed, but in the depths of the miasma-filled valley, what he saw was a pile of bones.
The rot and fishy stench that rushed up made him dizzy several times, and he saw Master in the bones at once, and there was another parting gift that Zang Gu had given him on his clothes, it was a bunch of lost incense, which had now dried up into a ball, but he would never admit his mistake.
With a shudder, he took the withered flower from the sleeve of his master's robe.
He suddenly understood that when the master saw him for the last time, he solemnly pinned the flower to his chest, saying that he would keep it for the rest of his life, the master had been looking at him, with a rich depth in his eyes, he couldn't understand the master's eyes at the time, he seemed to have a lot to say to him, but in the end he patted him on the shoulder, revealing a faint smile.
The Master's appearance puzzled him, but he believed what his father said, until now.
Master's body was already rotting, and he clenched the withered flower tightly, trembling all over.
He found out that his brother was telling the truth, and his father wouldn't let him leave the house for a single step, and this time he came out secretly. He always felt that this was because his father made him study diligently, but he didn't want to, it turned out that all this was just using him.
He was always just a pawn that was born.
Zang Gu's heart was like a knife, he covered his heart and sat on the corpse, there may be his people here, and even his mother was among the corpses.
Zang Gu couldn't believe it. I don't want to believe it.
In just a moment, the worldview he had been building collapsed in an instant, and he didn't know where to go, if what his brother said was true, then his death here with the ability was the best ending.
But he was unwilling.
The spells he'd learned to control his abilities had allowed him to cope with the current crisis, but what could he do when he was alone, even if he had abilities?
He walked outside in a daze, thinking of him
I once asked Master why he was different from the other brothers and sisters, and Master was silent for a long time, "This is our life." ”
As if he were leaving, as if he were foreseeing his imminent death, he handed him a bag and said, "If you ever have any problems, remember to take it out and open it with the spell I taught you." ”
Now should be the difficult moment that Master is talking about, and he wants to make a decision.
He took out the bag and opened it in the way Master had said, and when the rose-red bag was opened, it was empty.
Zang Gu couldn't believe what he saw, and hurriedly reached in and touched it, but the bag was like an endless abyss, and he stretched his hand down, but he never touched the end.
Suddenly, something grabbed his hand.
Zang Gu was startled, screaming and trying to shake the thing off, but he was suddenly pulled, and his whole person was dragged into that bag!
"Is it a realm?" Huang Mo suddenly asked.
The realm is the space that everyone who can have a certain amount of mana can have their own, and she has not had it yet, but she has heard the masters in the academy mention it.
Zang Gu shook his head and said, "If it is a domain, the owner of the domain must be alive, and Master he ...... What left me was a teleportation array, and the place that took me to was an underground fortress. ”
