Chapter 183: The Concept of the Giant Tree
Lu Lie didn't expect Tang Yan to make him swear this poisonous oath. If you stay here and become a member of the Tree Country, doesn't it mean that you will never be able to return to the land again in this life, and you will live here for the rest of your life? However, this is a big violation of Lu Lie's original intention. Originally, when he was in the bronze room, Lu Lie had thought about it, and as soon as his injuries healed, he immediately set off to bid farewell to this magnificent journey to the giant tree.
With a character like Lu Lie, making a poisonous oath and making a promise is like drinking water to him, and he forgets it when he turns his head. But now in front of him are the two guys Tang Yan and Mu Xiaobai. The most basic good or bad Lu Lie still has a ruler in his heart, people have just saved themselves in front of him, and now he is lying and deceiving others, which is always not good. When everything is over, he will disappear into the country of trees immediately, what will Tang Yan think? What will Mu Xiaobai think?
However, he is really curious about the secrets of the country on the tree. If he Lu Lie chooses to turn around and leave immediately today, then for the rest of his life, it will become a doubt that will plague him all his life. He will never have a chance to know again.
Lu Lie was caught in the battle between heaven and man.
Seeing the expression on Lu Lie's face change, Mu Xiaobai finally couldn't stand it anymore, and shook Tang Yan's arm pleadingly: "Uncle Tang, just tell this fool the truth." lest he still have illusions and think about it for so long. ”
Tang Yan shook his head helplessly: "Ah Bai, you broke the vow again." This kind of thing is up to the adventurers here to decide for themselves, how can we tell them before they come up with an answer?" But as soon as he came into contact with Mu Xiaobai's pleading and approaching innocent expression, Tang Yan instantly surrendered, "Okay, okay. I know. I told him he couldn't. But not for example!"
He straightened his expression and looked at Lu Lie: "Originally, if you chose to leave the country of trees, once you made this decision to leave here, you would never find this place in the future, and you would never be able to come back." ”
He cleared his throat and continued, "Lu Lie, let me ask you...... You've been hesitating whether or not to swear this poisonous oath. You have two reasons to hesitate, one is that after you have taken the poisonous oath, you cannot leave the country of the tree and go alone. Are you hesitant because of this? Of course not, because the Tree Nation rises much faster every month than you can climb on your own. And tens of thousands of people in the country of trees have risen together, and there is so much guarantee of combat power, when facing demons and monsters, it is much safer than you climbing up alone.
"The second reason for hesitation is that you want to get off the tree, don't you?"
Lu Lie smiled and said, "To tell you from the heart, this country on the tree, as well as the entire giant tree, I don't want to come back to this ghost place in the future." When I get to the land, with my divine skills, I can also be a fierce general in this troubled world. When the time comes, it will be more than enough to fight a few wars and save money to buy a house and a wife. ”
"You still don't understand what I mean. Tang Yan shook his head helplessly, "Even if I let you off the tree now, do you think you can leave this giant tree?"
"What, what do you mean?" Lu Lielen paused for a moment, then he glanced at the abyss under his feet, and made sure that the tree wall spread to the end that he couldn't see, "What can't I go back to? Isn't it just that I keep climbing down the tree wall? I get lost when I go up the tree, and I get lost when I go down the tree?"
"Do you still remember when the first expeditionary force went up the tree, the people under the tree and the Qi line connected to them?" Tang Yan's gaze became calmer and calmer, because he was just stating a fact, "Why did those Qi lines finally get out of control? Because when humans climbed to a certain height on the giant tree, they climbed to the 'other world'. In a world where no one knows, no logic exists.
"Can you get down the tree now? I can pack a ticket and wait for you below, just like when you go up the tree, with endless branches spreading. You can't climb for a hundred days...... If you're lucky enough to climb to the end, congratulations, it's not the land you've been missing for a long time, but the legendary Yellow Springs world. ”
Lu Lie was stunned. He stopped talking, as if chewing on the taste of Tang's speech. The moment the desire to go home is shattered, the feeling is not pleasant. After a long time, Lu Lie slowly spoke: "No need to try. I believe you...... So, you mean, I'm never going home for the rest of my life?"
"Not necessarily. Tang Yan glanced at the sky, "There is another possibility, that is, you stay and follow our tree country all the way to the top of the giant tree...... No one knew what was on top of the tree. But our mystics and mathematicians can feel that there is a tremendous force in that direction, and that power is so terrifying that it can destroy the desolation and turn time and space around...... If you get there, everything will probably turn around, and everyone's wish will come true. ”
Tang Yan didn't say that it was okay, but as soon as he said it, Lu Lie was about to cry: Nima, you have been rising for three hundred years, and you haven't even seen the shadow of the top of the tree, you let me stay?
Mu Xiaobai took advantage of the victory and pursued: "Okay, okay, don't cry your nose." You may not be able to return home anyway, so stay here and be a resident of the Tree Country. Maybe my generation will be able to see the treetops, but that's not sure. ”
Lu Lie still didn't give up: "The sky we are in now is 'another world'? this world is not connected to our original world, and once we climb in, we can't climb back through the original route?"
Tang Yan nodded: "Yes, you must first have a basic concept of the formation of this giant tree...... I'll just tell you, this giant tree is a freak-like existence, its bottom is connected to the Yellow Spring Country, and the high point leads to a place that no one knows (that is, the kingdom of the gods in Yao's mouth), and in the middle of the tree, there are countless worlds large and small. Your world is one of the places it passes through. And the strange monsters you see on the giant trees may also crawl from other worlds. ”
Lu Lie thought for a moment: "Then in the 'other worlds' we are in now, there is no such thing as land?"
Tang Yan pointed to the sky: "Look." ”
As soon as Lu Lie looked up, except for the countless flowing clouds that slowly flowed by, and the golden sun, Lu Lie couldn't find anything in the sky.
