372. The meaning of immortality
He looked back at me, "Why do you ask?" I thought for a while and replied: "You shouldn't have had any special places you wanted to go when you just left the dungeon that year, the only person who had contact with you except for He Zhixu of the shadow was me, you have my address, even if the order to sentence me to death has been issued, you still went to Changcheng, right?" ”
Sure enough, I saw him nod after a moment of silence, so I had already seen him when I was a teenager? Was the ...... before or after He Zhixu came to me? ”
Gu Xi smiled and said, "I know what you're thinking, it's after that." Indeed, at that time, I went to your place to take a look as soon as I had nowhere to go, and found that you had not been solved by them, and I thought about doing it myself, and it was your words that saved you. The reason is simple, you were the first person to give me color in my pale life. ”
"So you've dyed your hair maroon ever since?"
But seeing that Gu Xi still shook his head: "It's not that easy, my ordinary hair dye can't dye the color at all, just like ...... Crystal Orchid. There was irony in his eyes when he said this: "So my hair has no pigment because I have inhaled too much of the putrid gas of the Death Flower, and even if the specially prepared pigment can cover it successfully, it will have a limited time." This will continue until I know you again, and it will not end until the power of the royal seal is incorporated into me. Originally, I didn't notice it, but it was only after a while that I realized that my hair had turned black. ”
I asked, "So what?" ”
"So you don't have to be afraid to see me change back to my original hair color, it's just that I've regained my essence."
I looked at him for a long time, lowered my eyes, and whispered: "Gu Xi, don't lie to me anymore, although I don't know why, but I can be sure that body temperature is a symbol of your ability." Three years ago, you planted the natal element into my body, and even if you incorporated the power of the royal seal, you could not withstand the damage caused by the sudden loss of the natal element, so you disappeared into everyone's life in a cruel way; Three years later, your body temperature drops to zero again, and it may be that anyone has already died, and even if you don't die, you will definitely not be able to change your gradually weakened physique. Otherwise, with your character, you will never be able to let people do this, and you are more suitable to turn your hands into clouds and cover your hands for rain to control everything. ”
Gu Xi laughed out loud when he heard my words, took me into his arms and said in his ear: "I have such a high evaluation of you?" And how do you know that I have not turned my hands into clouds and my hands into rain now? ”
My heart fluttered, and I wanted to turn around to look at him, but he hugged him so tightly that I had to ask: "Tell me what's going on, otherwise I won't trust you again." ”
I only heard him sneer behind my ear and laughed: "In this world, you are often willing to dare to threaten me, but when did you become such a quick temper, I just told you what I want to tell you, listen to me slowly." ”
I really want to yell at him, my temper is forced out by him, but I don't want to interrupt his thoughts that he is finally willing to state.
"I have been incomplete since I was conscious, everyone has a past, a present, and a future, but I only have a present. You must be wondering why a person has no future because of a lack of memory and no past? ”
At this point he stretched out his right hand in mid-air and spread it, and I couldn't help but look through his fingers and look beyond the gap between them, as if the space had become different because of the different perspectives. Just as my mind was flipping, Gu Xi said again: "See? If you think this side of my hand is the past, and the outside of my palm is the future, you must be looking at the future side and I can only stay here, just like the ape-like man in the past. ”
His heart was shocked, and his pupils dilated in disbelief, "What did you say?" ”
The memory didn't last long, I still remember that under that strange castle in Guiyang, we encountered a phantom hole, and the apes were creatures that lived in that space. At that time, he said that the ape was able to survive and become a defender because time stood still in the space of the Phantom Cave, which meant that its life stayed at the moment when it was brought into the Phantom Cave.
An inexplicable chill was rising, afraid of what Gu Xi was going to say next. But his unique clear voice had already said slowly in his ears: "A smart girl can understand it at a moment, someone uses me as an eye to lay an enchantment here like the layout of the phantom cave in Guiyang, as long as time is not consumed within this range, and life will not grow old, this is the fundamental reason why those people think that they have obtained the source of life." As long as I'm here for a moment, no matter how much they draw energy from my natal element, it will be undetrimental to me, and it will benefit them. But once I leave this range, not only will they no longer be able to absorb it, but the life element they originally stole will be eaten back, because these ridiculous people don't know that a person who has stopped time has no natal element, and what they absorb is only overdrawing their future life. ”
I was so shocked that I couldn't speak, it turned out that this was the truth that those weird natal lamps could sustain eternal life.
It's ridiculous that this demon-like family greedily thinks that they can get other people's lives for nothing, but in fact, they are simply overdrawing their future life. Now that Gu Xi is back here, he once again used me to light the natal lamp...... Suddenly, a thought was slowly forming in my head, and it was seamlessly connected to what he had just said.
He said, "How do you know that I have not turned my hands into clouds and my hands into rain?"
Such a tone and such a scheming plan is Gu Xi! He seemed to have no flaws before, but there was one biggest flaw: he was too weak! Gu Xi's ability to be invincible for a long time is not only due to his invincible ability, but also because of his unknown head. Even if He Zhixu was really strong enough to match him, it was impossible for him to be so passive.
It took me several deep breaths before I restrained my excitement and asked word by word, "Why are you coming back?" ”
Gu Xi withdrew his right palm and hugged me tighter, the force seemed to rub me into his body, and the tone of his voice was extremely relaxed: "Xiao Yuan, the correct question at this time should be to ask me how old I am?" ”
I was stunned, I didn't think about it for a while, and then after being reminded by him, I had a bad intuition, and the language seemed to be manipulated by him and asked him, "How old are you?" ”
"It's a bit hard to answer, if in terms of this unique spatial enchantment, it can be regarded as a new birth from the day I escaped, then how many years I have been gone is how old I am; But if you look at the scale of time and space measured by the outside world, I'm afraid I can only answer that I don't know. ”
Stunned's mind wasn't very good anymore, so it was possible that he was caught by the family when he was a teenager, and then managed to get trapped in the dungeon to stop him from growing, and he probably couldn't remember how many years he had in between. At this time, I still didn't realize the original meaning of Gu Xi's words, so I just walked away according to my own train of thought and asked, "So you have been here since you were a teenager, and you have always been the same as you were a teenager in your lifetime memory?" ”
Gu Xi was silent for a long time before rejecting my speculation: "There is no teenager, I have always been the way I am now, and the only thing that has changed is my hair color, and the image of the teenager I saw in the painting for you is just my profile of the past." ”
"You're saying you've been what you are since you can remember? But that's not right, even if you were here before and stopped time, but you went out later, haven't you grown for more than ten years? "Ten years and one year, time will leave traces on people's faces, how can he always remain the same?
Gu Xi said: "At first, I didn't figure it out, thinking that the barrier set by that person was immeasurably vast, and I didn't understand until I met you again and went deep into your heart. ”
After waiting for a while, he didn't see him continue, so he couldn't help urging: "What do you understand?" His heart sank, and he speculated and asked, "It can't be related to me, right?" He suddenly took a deep breath at the back of my neck, and it made me feel cold and cold, and I was numb with cold just for a moment, and I felt that there was no place where I was still warm. Just when I thought he didn't want to answer anymore, I heard him say again: "This matter has nothing to do with you, the problem lies with me." This graceful phantom layer is not fixed in one place, but is transferred everywhere with the array eye as the core. ”
"You mean to say where you are, where is the phantom level?"
Gu Xi hummed lightly as a tacit acquiescence, and it also made me so stunned that I couldn't speak, it was incredible! If so, wouldn't he never be able to escape this bondage, and he would not be able to live, age, sickness and die like a normal person?
"Isn't this thing going to break? It should be similar to Fuso Shenmu's ability to create illusions, and there should be a way to crack it. "I pondered and pondered the decision, not believing that there would be no way to break this formation that violated nature.
But behind his ears, Gu Xi suddenly asked with an evil nature: "Why do you want to break it?" Although it's really sad to be set up as the eye of the formation, but you can live forever, why not? I was stunned, and said, "You want to live forever?" ”
"Since ancient times, there have been Qin Emperors and Han Wu, and in the second half of his life, he tried all his hard work to seek, and it has been passed down from generation to generation. Who in this world doesn't want to live forever? At least for now, it doesn't seem bad to me, not only can I fool a bunch of fools into playing the clown for eternal life, but I can also make peace with the woman I like. ”
"But...... This kind of immortality is not real. My intuition determined that Gu Xi's thoughts were wrong, but I couldn't say what was wrong. I heard him ask back again: "What is true immortality?" Have you ever seen the world truly immortal? Those so-called elixirs are just foolish dreams, and only when life stops at a moment like me, can I freely shuttle through other people's time and space, is it immortal in the true sense. ”
I was speechless.
It was also after arriving at this place that the concept of "immortality" was slowly injected into my mind, and I hadn't even thought about it before. Because birth, old age, sickness and death are the normal state of human beings, there is nothing special or not special, just like people want to eat and sleep, who will question it. But now that the man behind me is living against the conventions of nature, what right am I to refute after hearing his experience like that and then hearing him say these rebellious and domineering words?
Phoenix...... It has melted into his life and has followed his destiny.
