Chapter 1128: Lonely for a Life
Chapter 1121: Lonely Life
Mu Chen wanted to hide it, but there was no reason for anyone to use it, it was no good for him to be targeted by the Alien Sky Demon Clan, and it was not clear whether Xiao Yao'er knew about the Alien Sky Demon Clan, and most importantly, he couldn't put his heart into a person who only had two eyes.
"I see. ”
It was very sudden, I originally thought that such a rejection would make Xiao Yao'er disgusted, but the ending was the opposite, Xiao Yao'er not only did not feel disgusted, but sighed lightly, showed an expression similar to a smile and said: "I'm glad that you didn't make excuses to perfunctory me, sometimes this kind of euphemistic refusal can give people more respect." ”
Dropping these words, Xiao Yao'er stretched out her thin finger and tapped it in the void, and a circle of ripples suddenly appeared in the space, and in a burst of glitter, a book that seemed to be wrapped in a thick fog gradually emerged from the ripples.
Taking out this book, Xiao Yao'er directly handed it to Mu Chen and said, "Take this and try it." ”
Mu Chen subconsciously took the book handed over by Xiao Yao'er, looked down, and suddenly noticed a flower in front of him, his consciousness was a little sudden, Mu Chen, who noticed something, suddenly opened his Ice Pole Demon Pupil, and opened the Ice Pole Demon Pupil to the peak state, until this time, the dense fog on the book gradually dissipated, but what made Mu Chen helpless was that there was nothing on the cover except for a strange mask pattern, and it was a kind of book that was not simple at first glance.
"You're ......"
Xiao Yao'er replied: "If you want to use the disguise technique, you must have encountered difficulties that need to cover your face, and judging from your expression, the seriousness of the matter is extraordinary, and a high-level disguise technique may not be able to solve your troubles, so it is an additional choice, if you can use it, the effect will be countless stronger than the high-level disguise technique." ”
"It?"
Flipping over the cover, two incomparably blurry fonts suddenly caught Mu Chen's eyes, even if he opened the Ice Pole Demon Pupil, he stared at it for a long time before he could see it clearly.
"A thousand faces?"
"Huh...... Sure enough, it's a thousand faces. Xiao Yao'er's eyes showed a hint of understanding and abruptness, and she turned to say: "She is the only one in this world who can write this kind of book." ”
Mu Chen was surprised and asked curiously: "Can you make it clear?"
Xiao Yao'er said, "Are you interested?"
Mu Chen nodded: "Since you want to use it, of course you will want to know the origin." ”
Xiao Yao'er said helplessly: "It's okay, it's okay to tell you, but it's tiring to stand and talk, let's go there." ”
As she spoke, Xiao Yao'er walked towards the reading area with her cane, followed by Mu Chen. I have to say that the reading area on the thirteenth level is a decoration, and the only people who can enter here are the elders of the inner mountain, and the elders rarely stay here to read, but when Mu Chen wanted to wipe the dust on the tables and chairs, he found that it was like a mirror, spotless.
"Disappointed?"
Seeing Mu Chen's stunned expression, Xiao Yao'er smiled, casually found a place to sit down, and said with a light smile: "The word "people are like their appearance" is not absolute, although I look sloppy, but I like to be quiet, and similarly, I also like 'quiet'." So although the thirteenth floor is rarely visited, I tidy it up once a day, and of course, the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth floors are the same. ”
I have to say that this short exchange with Xiao Yao'er made him understand what a real person is and why he finally understands why Dilaka is called a genius. Although Dilaka repeatedly told Xiao Yao'er that he didn't like others to communicate with him with honorific titles, he still couldn't hide the respect in his eyes, because this was a real great wise man.
"A thousand faces, is the title of a person, specifically, it should be the title of a woman. She's the biggest mystery since the Holy War, and what I know about her is only from the miscellaneous records accumulated on the Holy Sepulchre Mountain and rumors from other regions, so it won't be much, but it's enough to satisfy your curiosity. ”
"The biggest mystery since the Holy War?"
Xiao Yao'er nodded and said: "Qianmian is the name given to her by the people of the mainland, and as for her real name, no one knows it so far. But according to rumors, she herself did not like the name Thousand Faces, and used to calling herself ...... A thousand illusions. ”
"A thousand illusions?"
Mu Chen's voice was a little low, this was the first time he had heard of a title, but for some reason, just this title gave him an indescribable charm and mystery, even if these two words were extremely simple.
Xiao Yao'er closed her eyes lightly and said slowly: "This is a human being full of mystery, except for her gender, everything about her is unknown, including her posture. ”
"She's a woman, right?" Hearing Xiao Yao'er's words, Mu Chen could already deduce the answer by himself.
Xiao Yao'er bowed her head lightly, and said in his usual slow and hoarse voice: "It's a woman, but no one has really seen it, it's just the conclusion of contemporary people judging by their voices." It is said that even the powerhouses of the Emperor Realm at that time could not see her appearance clearly, and in fact, there are indeed not many records of her appearance and posture. ”
"Even the powerhouses of the Emperor Realm can't see her appearance clearly?...... Isn't it too exaggerated?" Mu Chen said in disbelief as he looked down at the books in front of him.
Xiao Yao'er sighed softly: "The rumor is so, I can't be sure if it's true, after all, the Emperor Realm powerhouse and her have long been destroyed in this world, but there are many records of her deeds, and one of them is the most shocking, and it is also the reason why I feel that this rumor is credible." ”
"She's an illusion herself......"
“......”
As soon as these words came out, the entire Thirteen Towers were completely silent, what did it mean that she was an illusion?
Mu Chen just looked at Xiao Yao'er blankly, and only after half a ring did he blink his eyes and ask, "What do you mean?"
Xiao Yao'er explained: "This is what is recorded in the book, combined with other information, Qianhuan seems to carry countless powerful illusions herself, as long as she stands there, all those who are close to her, or close to her, will enter an uncontrollable illusion, or violent, or decadent, or go crazy. Martial artists with low mental power, even just looking at them will produce shaking or hallucinations, which is extremely terrifying. ”
Therefore, at that time, even the powerhouses of the Emperor Realm were reluctant to contact them, and all the countermeasures and battle situations in the holy war relied on transmission or letters to inform them. ”
Mu Chen frowned: "Since these illusions have caused her so much trouble, can't she get rid of these illusions?"
"I can't solve it. ”
Xiao Yao'er shook her head and said with a wry smile: "The matter has been passed down to this day, and if it can be lifted, she herself doesn't want this." Man, if there is no belief to support one's life, one cannot survive. And she until she perished, and no one dared to approach her, she was like a time bomb, and wherever it became, it would turn into a terrible nightmare. As long as it is a living creature, even plants will be violently affected, which is also the reason why she has achieved so many victories in the Holy War back then. ”
"It's simply a more troublesome existence than the Ice Spirit Divine Body......"
Hearing the explanation, Mu Chen couldn't help but subconsciously mutter.
Xiao Yao'er spoke more attentively, although she heard Mu Chen muttering, but she didn't hear the specific words spoken by Mu Chen clearly, so she asked, "What did you say?"
Mu Chen sighed, and hurriedly reacted: "I said, since she is decayed, then the position of her decay is ......"
"Nobody knows. ”
Without waiting for Mu Chen to finish speaking, Xiao Yao'er directly interrupted Mu Chen, her eyes revealing a feeling of sympathy, and said with a wry smile: "In this world, not everyone is willing to become an existence that causes trouble to others, just like I like to communicate with people and explore unknown things, but most people refuse to get close to me because of my appearance." The only people who are really willing to communicate with me in the same capacity are only a few people, and those who are willing to make deep friendships are even less to the extreme. So for almost a hundred years, I've stayed here and never left once, not even the tower floors below the tenth floor. ”
"Why ......"
Mu Chen was shocked, although he felt that Xiao Yao'er's appearance was terrifying, but he wouldn't stay here for a hundred years and not leave, not to mention that he just looked a little weird, but what trouble would it bring to others if he went out to see it if he covered it up?
Xiao Yao'er laughed at herself: "To put it in layman's terms, if you look like this, don't go out and be scary." I know what you're thinking, but even if you can go out, it's disrespectful to communicate with people in a veiled way, would you be willing to have a deep friendship with someone who hides their appearance all the time?"
“......”
Mu Chen was silent, if a person always concealed his appearance, then he might communicate with him, but he would never have a deep friendship, this is the most basic cognition of survival in the Jiwu Continent.
"That's it, life in the world, meeting half a confidant is not in vain, not to mention that I met one, and it is not a bad thing to stay in this book tower, not only there are countless books to read, but also there are unpredictable chances. You see, as long as fate arrives, there will naturally be people who are willing to communicate with you face-to-face one after another, Zijie is, so are you, I am already very content. ”
"But......" Xiao Yao'er's expression became a little lonely: "Compared to me, Qianhuan is much more unfortunate." No matter what, I finally found a place to stay, and it was a place for me to stay. But what about her, she has been lonely all her life, and she has to find a deserted place even where she has perished, in order to not want to cause trouble to people after death, which can be described as sad. ”
Speaking of this, Xiao Yao'er glanced at Mu Chen and chuckled: "You may think that I am hypocritical, an existence 30,000 years ago seems to be very familiar." But there's no denying that it's easy for me to relate to this kind of person, and it seems to me that people are in similar situations despite different times, which is why I wanted to give this book to you. ”
The words went around in a big circle, and finally returned to the book.
Mu Chen's thoughts were still on the Thousand Illusions, and he was not immediately reversed, pressed on the book, and replied: "I don't think you are hypocritical, in the end, I am the same kind of person as you after all." ”
The original Xiao Hei is the best example, the so-called resonance, the more people in the same situation, the easier it is to produce, there is no racial restriction between this, and there is also no time and space limit.
Expressing his opinion, Mu Chen exhaled lightly, pointed to the book in Xiao Yao'er's stunned gaze and said, "Now let's talk about this book." ”
