Chapter 1: The Book of Inheritance
Liu Cheng is just an ordinary junior college student, who is silent on weekdays, does not like to socialize with people too much, and loves to be alone in a daze in his spare time, or goes to a less crowded place to blow the wind to pass the time, so he has few friends. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoOn this day, the National Day is approaching, everyone has their own plans, some people are ready to go to the scenic spot to play, some people plan to go home to visit their parents, and some people go to work, in short, there are all kinds of arrangements. And Liu Cheng did not arrange it before the holiday like others.
On the day of the National Day, Liu Cheng refused the invitation of his dormitory classmates to play together, ran to the library alone, and wandered aimlessly among the bookshelves. It should be said that although Liu Cheng usually likes to read, he rarely goes to the library. But today for some reason, after getting up early in the morning, he felt panicked and a little uneasy, so he wanted to go out for a walk, but for some reason, he ran to the library for some reason, and his original intention was to go out and climb the mountain. Although it was a little strange, I didn't care, and thought: where to stay is not to stay, anyway, everyone is here, and the library is quite quiet. When he entered the quiet environment of the library, his mood slowly recovered, and he gradually regained his usual calmness and indifference. Liu Cheng saw that there were really few people in the library, so he aimlessly searched in front of the rows of bookshelves to see if there were any books that could arouse his interest. One morning, Liu Cheng spent all his time in the library, quietly looking at a collection of Guo Moruo's poems, but when Liu Cheng wanted to return the book to its original place, he found that the place where Guo Moruo's poetry collection was originally placed was occupied by a golden hardcover book with a delicate cover and engraved patterns.
"Strangely, no one has been in this row all the time at noon, when did this book appear? Could it be that I was too engrossed in watching and didn't notice anyone coming? Liu Cheng muttered in a low voice, although he was curious in his heart, he didn't delve into it, he was not an inquisitive person. So he put Guo Moruo's poetry collection back in its place, and picked up the book that appeared out of nowhere from the shelf.
The golden book does not seem to be very thick, but it is extremely heavy like a hand, and a faint warmth is transmitted from the book to the hand, which feels extremely comfortable, with the delicate texture of the book that is not gold, jade, copper, iron and paper, Liu Cheng's curiosity is even stronger, and he carefully observes the engraving on the cover. I saw a round of red sun engraved on the top of the cover, under the red sun is a rolling mountain river, between the mountains and rivers are full of rushing beasts, the air is also hovering with a variety of unknown names of birds and beasts, a winding river from the mountains and rivers, straight to the turbulent sea, and the aquatic creatures in the water are also unwilling to be lonely churning the waves. The whole picture is actually very simple, a little simple, although the picture is engraved with a lot of things, but it is extremely concise. It is only roughly outlined with lines, and it is difficult to identify the specific things engraved on it, and Liu Cheng can only make a rough judgment from these things, and the birds and beasts in it are obviously not recognized by Liu Cheng. This also aroused Liu Cheng's greater interest. On weekdays, Liu Cheng is keen on novels, and subconsciously regards this book as an alternative mythological story.
So Liu Cheng picked up the book and sat back at the table, gently opened the cover, only to see the title page written "Book of Inheritance" four big characters, seeing these four words, Liu Cheng was a little stunned, because he found that the four words of "Book of Inheritance" are like living creatures, faintly like a dragon swimming on the title page, and always changing between the two colors of fiery red and blue, Liu Cheng could see it, but he didn't notice that the temperature of the book with a faint warmth was changing at a high frequency between hot and cold. It wasn't until Liu Cheng suddenly felt a pain in his left finger that he noticed the strangeness of the book. At this time, a drop of blood had been smeared on the heavy cover of the book, and a faint flash of colorful light flashed on the cover of the book, which dazzled Liu Cheng. However, the blood did not last long before it was gone, and the strangeness of the book disappeared at the same time. At this time, Liu Chengcai woke up from the shock. Thinking back to what happened today, Liu Cheng felt a little dizzy. First of all, when I woke up in the morning, I felt depressed and wanted to go out for a walk, but I originally planned to climb the mountain but ran to the library for some reason. Then there was the inexplicable appearance of this so-called "Book of Inheritance", and then everything that followed was even more strange, the scorching heat and cold did not leave any traces on the wooden table, and what was even more strange was that Liu Cheng's entire left hand was pressed on the book, but only one finger was injured.
Liu Cheng was thinking about things in his heart, and he didn't know how he got to the dormitory, and he also took back the "Book of Inheritance" but was not stopped by the administrator. When Liu Cheng arrived at the dormitory, he casually threw the "Book of Inheritance" to the head of the bed, but he suddenly remembered something, and quickly picked it up and put it on the iron bookshelf alone. Liu Cheng was the only one in the dormitory today, and after the morning's events, he didn't bother to eat, so he simply lay on the bed alone and enjoyed this rare quiet, and also thought about the question of the "Book of Inheritance".
However, Liu Cheng fell asleep unconsciously, Liu Cheng dreamed that he was standing on a book that was burning with a raging flame but dragging a blue ice flame, and was shuttling at high speed on a vast mountain, and the book under his feet was the "Book of Inheritance" that was magnified several times, and Liu Cheng saw a white-bearded old man standing on the top of the highest mountain and looking at him with a smile on his face, and the smile was full of relief and love. After seeing the old man's face clearly, Liu Cheng was stunned for a moment, and said secretly: "It's strange, this place is so far away from the old man, how can I see the old man's face clearly with my myopic eyes?" However, the Book of Inheritance didn't give Liu Cheng much time to be surprised, and took him straight to the top of the mountain where the old man was, and then turned into a normal size and gathered the raging flames and blue ice flames and flew into the old man's hands.
The old man looked at Liu Cheng carefully, and Liu Cheng also looked at the old man carefully. The old man was dressed in a green dress in ancient costume, and his scattered white hair fluttered in the mountain breeze, smart but not messy, and a kind and kind atmosphere came out of the old man, which seemed very friendly. At the same time, there are also birds and beasts flying in the air from time to time, most of them are huge, full of fierce breath, but they do not dare to approach the top of the mountain, but they avoid it from a distance. The old man looked at Liu Chengliang for a long time, nodded with satisfaction, and then sighed lightly. Liu Cheng looked at the old man quietly, waiting for him to speak.
The old man seemed to organize his language, and said solemnly: "Inheritor Liu Cheng, do you know what inheritance is?"
Liu Cheng was slightly stunned, he had a lot of questions in his heart, and he didn't answer the old man's questions, and said in a respectful tone: "The kid has a lot of doubts, I wonder if the old man can solve my doubts?" ”
The old man was not angry that Liu Cheng did not answer his question, nodded and said, "Inheritor, if you have any questions, just ask, many questions are for you to know sooner or later." ”
When Liu Cheng heard the old man say this, he was not polite: "Dare to ask what is going on with this 'Book of Inheritance'?" ”
"As the name suggests, the 'Book of Inheritance' is a book that exists to pass on something. I know you have a lot of doubts, so I'm going to tell you stories and legends related to the Book of Inheritance, and you'll understand a lot. The old man looked at Liu Cheng with a smile, and when he saw Liu Cheng nodding in agreement, the old man continued: "Legend has it that since there has been life on this planet, there has been a special bloodline inheritance, and the inheritance of this bloodline is very single, and there is only one person in each generation, but it has never been broken, and this inheritance is carried out through this 'Book of Inheritance'. ”
The old man said and handed the "Book of Inheritance" in his hand to Liu Cheng, Liu took over the "Book of Inheritance", and listened carefully to the old man's words, "Each generation of inheritors will release the 'Book of Inheritance' at the end of their lives, and inject their own life's knowledge and insights, as well as energy, so that it can independently find the next inheritor." Until a new lineage begins. Passing on the knowledge and energy to the next generation of inheritors, and unlocking the abilities of inheritors. ”
After listening to the old man's story, Liu Cheng seems to understand something, he himself is the inheritor of this generation who has been recognized by the "Book of Inheritance". However, these alone are not enough to answer the doubts in Liu Cheng's heart at this time, because after one question is understood, there will naturally be the next or even more questions.
"Why is there a Inheritor?" Liu Cheng raised his thinking head and asked the old man.
"Because existence is reason, and because of need. Inheritors are unlocked their own abilities, but they are not prescribed what they have to do, so you don't have to worry about being restricted. The inheritors of the past have both good and evil, and no one has ever deliberately asked for anything. It's just that they have enough ability to transcend the constraints of the world, and all the inheritors basically act according to their hearts, do whatever they want, and do whatever they want. Some people are called demons, some people are called heroes, but all the inheritors seem to have maintained the tradition of standing on the side of justice in real events. The old man seemed to understand Liu Cheng's worries, "Inheritor, do you still have any questions?" ”
"You just said that the 'Book of Inheritance' will open up their own abilities for the inheritors, so what abilities do the inheritors have, and are the abilities of each generation of inheritors the same?" Liu Cheng was not polite to the old man, and directly asked the next question he cared about.
"The ability of this inheritor, in fact, the ability of each generation of inheritors is different, and what is inherited between inheritors is only that kind of innate special bloodline, not the immutable ability. Each generation has different abilities. And your abilities can also be reflected through the 'Book of Inheritance', and your abilities should have an attribute relationship with ice and fire, as well as the ability to summon. Okay, new inheritor, you probably haven't read the content of the 'Book of Inheritance', in fact, these things are recorded in the Book of Inheritance, including how to improve and basic use of your abilities after they are opened, they will be presented to you in detail. You can find out what you want to know later by reading the 'Book of Inheritance'. The time of my existence is almost up, so if you have any doubts, take a closer look at the 'Book of Inheritance', and don't lose the prestige and face of the inheritor. The old man didn't give Liu Cheng a chance to continue to ask questions, smiled and waved his hand, and Liu Cheng stood on the larger "Book of Inheritance" again, and flew towards the mountains and rivers, and the old man slowly faded and disappeared from the top of the mountain.
