Chapter 250: Conversation with Li Yuan (2)
"It doesn't matter. Li Yuan shook his hand, "I'm already close to my goal, even if those people are aware of my existence now, they have nothing to do with me......
"What's more, by now, you've probably guessed my identity.
"I am from the kingdom of God. To put it more plainly, I'm the one who lives on the top of the tree......"
Lu Lie's pupils shrank into two points.
"Sure enough, among the five of us, it is you who hides the most shocking secret. Compared to you Li Yuan, Yang Wei, who has been dead for more than 50 years, the king of killers on land, the cannibal owl, Su Wen, the secret magician from the Chang'an royal family, and me who accidentally ate the fruit of the giant tree, what is it. ”
Li Yuan glanced at the horizon in the distance, and after the Huangquan Giant fell, the shadow that covered the sky completely disappeared. The golden sunset sprinkled all over the sky, and the faces of Li Yuan and Lu Lie on the tree wall were shining with gold.
Li Yuan said in a low voice, "I must leave here before the sun sets...... Okay, if you have any questions, just hurry up and ask in this last moment. Maybe this is the last time we will see each other in our lives, so let's ask everything we want. ”
"The answer I want to get the most is also the ...... that every adventurer who has died on the giant tree in the past thousands of years will never forget" Lu Lie stared at Li Yuan's eyes tightly, as if he was afraid that if he blinked, the other party would suddenly disappear, and along with the long-cherished wish of countless adventurers in the hearts of thousands of adventurers, he would disappear on the wall of this empty giant tree.
"What is there on top of this tree? What kind of existence can it be called the kingdom of God? And more importantly, is it worth it for us to give our lives and so much to get there. ”
Li Yuan's fingers tapped lightly on the tree wall, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly. He was actually laughing, this was the first time Lu Lie saw Li Yuan's smile in his life, and it was also the last time.
"Sure enough, the questions that should have come back should come back. ”
Li Yuan said softly,
"I just hope this answer doesn't disappoint you.
"Above the giant tree, the lead is the 'future'. ”
"Future?"
"Impossible, this is impossible, this is absolutely impossible...... Lu Lie's thoughts suddenly became confused, "You mean that above this giant tree is the future? This is the answer that the Giant Tree Divine Sect has been seeking for thousands of years, and this is the true purpose that Yao wants to achieve?...... However, I still don't understand what is the meaning of such a future?...... How far is this future? 10 years, 50 years, 100 years, 1,000 years?......
Li Yuan raised his arm and narrowed his eyes to glance at a strange silver instrument hanging from his wrist - it was a perfect piece of metal that was extremely round, an existence that even the most experienced blacksmith on land could not polish. Tiny metal needles slowly rotate on this beautiful heart-stopping little disc, making a ticking sound. The left end of the disc was also densely engraved with strange characters that Lu Lie couldn't understand, and it was constantly changing in Li Yuan's hands.
"To be exact, 350,000 years and 221 years, maybe you who are standing in front of me now, I will call you an ancestor with respect. However, according to the rules of time travel, the size of the generation is based on the actual age of the person being called, not the age, so this ancestor is exempted.
"Humanity 350,000 years later, and the humanity of your time, have changed dramatically. From our consciousness, our form, our thoughts, and even our way of being and appearance, we have produced changes that you cannot imagine. It can be said that we are all human beings, but we have become two 'completely different' species. Even the appearance I am now in front of you as an 'old human' is a self-camouflage to make you 'old humans' feel a sense of identity...... I'm afraid that as soon as my true self appears to you, you will attack me as a monster. ”
Lu Lie stared blankly at Li Yuan's lips closing one by one, he didn't understand what Li Yuan was talking about now.
Li Yuan didn't give Lu Lie any time to think. He knew that Lu Lie couldn't understand what he was saying, but there was no time left for him, no matter how much the primitive man living in the Stone Age in front of him could understand, he could speak as much as he could before leaving here.
"Many of you old humans call us gods on the treetops, but in fact, we have the power to do many things you can't imagine, and in your eyes we are almost like gods, and we can afford to be gods. For thousands of years, we have also seen multitudes of adventurers try to crawl through wormholes and into our planes through this warped causal object, oh, this being that you call the giant tree...... It is at the top of the giant tree in your eyes.
"However, only new humans crawl back to the old plane through wormholes, but no old humans have ever crawled from the old space-time wall to the new plane by twisting cause and effect.
"This has been the case since Dr. Isaacson discovered the wormhole connecting worlds in the third cantilever in the zero century...... Generations of new humans, the gods you call them, have crawled to worlds through the wormhole digital kernel to twist cause and effect, but no one from other times has crawled over, without exception.
"I think that's the curse of the true God. If there really are gods in this world who exist far beyond us, who control the quantum laws and the physics of the major universes, they are watching us coldly from a high place. ”
Lu Lie stammered, "I still don't understand what you're talking about...... Isn't it you, the gods on the top of the tree, who curse mankind not to climb this great tree......"
Li Yuan asked rhetorically, "Lu Lie, then why do you think we new humans want to stop you from climbing to the top of the tree?"
Lu Lie clenched his fists: "Naturally, it's to prevent mortals from peeking into the secrets of your gods...... Maybe in the kingdom of the gods, there is a way to become a being like you...... It's like what Yao said. ”
Li Yuan pointed to the top of his head: "Those who can see the wormhole with their own eyes are all people who have been chosen by God, and our new humans have never prevented anyone from entering the wormhole." ”
"Then, all kinds of strange statues and all kinds of monsters on top of those giant trees, aren't they all made by you? ”
Li Yuan said lightly: "The wormhole is originally the product of cause and effect. Because of the existence of wormholes, countless different worlds and space-time have been mixed together, and this place has become a chaotic zone in the universe. In this area, no matter what kind of anti-causal and anti-logical creatures will be created. In the end, they will not be able to prove their existence, deny each other, and finally devour each other and perish.
"It's not a choice for our new humanity, and it has nothing to do with it. ”
