Star Tower.

The strange man looked at the brown-haired star official and said, "Your senior brother, why didn't you come?" The brown-haired star officer scratched his head and said, "I haven't seen Senior Brother for three days, and I don't know where he went." Perhaps, it was a trip to practice. ”

Balatu on the side spoke: "I found a note on my senior brother's desk, I don't know if he left it. He handed a note to the brown-haired starman. The other party took it, looked at it carefully for a while, and said, "It is indeed the handwriting of the senior brother, it seems that the senior brother has gone out again." ”

When the strange man heard this, he did not speak. After a while, he sighed slowly: "Everyone has their own choice, if he wants to go, let him go." Minibus, you have a heart. ”

Balatu's heart flickered, and he lowered his head in a little panic, not daring to look at the strange man again. The strange man in the mask doesn't see any emotion. He opened his mouth again and asked, "Little Brown, how long have you been studying with me?" ”

"It's been a hundred years. The brown-haired star officer scratched his head and said with a smile, the disciple's studies have been progressing slowly, which has bothered the teacher. "Well, has it been so long. Come up to me at the top of the tower. Minibus, if you can't get up, just leave by yourself. With that, the strange man vanished.

"What's the matter, I'm going to the top of the tower. The brown-haired star officer frowned and said helplessly. Seeing Balatu's puzzled expression, he hurriedly explained, "For junior brother, it may be a good thing for you. However, from here to the top, there are about 500 floors, and you can only go up by yourself. “

Balatu was also taken aback, and he even asked, "Master, let's go up and do something." "I don't know, but the last time I went to the top of the tower, it was decided to take me as an apprentice. So, you must come on, this time, senior brother, I can't help you. The brown-haired star officer patted Balatu on the shoulder and walked first to the stairs.

How high the 500 floors were, Baratu never calculated. All he knew was that he had been walking in the towering staircase for about three hours. At first, you can still see the figure of the brown-haired star officer, but you can't even see the shadow in the back.

The stairs under your feet are as if you can never finish them. Balatu felt that his feet were as heavy as lead. Every step seems to exhaust the strength of the whole body. In the back, every step of Balatu relied on his own willpower to insist.

How can it be so long, how can it be so tiring. On the grassland, I didn't get so tired after running for three days and nights. Why do you want to hold on, I'm even at the top, maybe it's just to declare my crime. No, there should be no flaws in the note prepared by that guy. Why do you have to work so hard, as long as you are my believer, you can get great power.

Countless distractions swirled in Baratu's mind. He struggled to lift one foot, and felt as if the muscles in his whole body were aching. He couldn't help but sigh lightly: "Let's take a break, I'm too tired." “

As soon as the thought arose to Balatu, sleepiness came to him like a tidal wave. A sudden alertness rose in his heart, and as long as he sat down, he would not stand up again.

Balatu gritted his teeth and gritted his teeth to sit down. He sighed softly, "It's just like this, I can't stand it." Then, no wonder others look down on you. “

Baratu seemed to see the blonde star officer at first sight of his own indifferent gaze. I saw the murderous eyes of those herdsmen again, and it seemed that I saw Zhenhaizi's eyes full of pity for himself. He heard his father's helpless cry again, and the greedy eyes of the proud lord in the night.

"I'm not dead yet, we're not done yet. Baratu cried out through gritted teeth, got up, and began to walk up again.

On the top floor, the brown-haired star officer looked at Balatu on the monitor, and said a little unbearably: "Master, minibus, you have worked very hard. He was still too young to start his formal cultivation, and it was already remarkable that he had been able to get here. At the beginning, I didn't even get there. ”

The brown-haired star officer knew that there was a hidden mechanism in the stairs. Balatu seems to have walked for a long time, but in fact he is only standing still. Without the consent of the eccentric, he will never be able to reach the top in his life.

The strange man also stared at the monitor for a long time, and he said softly, "You are kind, his path is different from yours." How far he can go, can only rely on himself. With that, he waved his hand and turned off the monitor on the wall.

"Little Brown, when you first came. I'll ask you why the starry sky in the sky never changes from here. The strange man closed his eyes for a moment before asking.

The brown-haired star officer looked up at the top, the shield on it had been opened, and he could clearly see the stars in the sky through the transparent cover. "Master, if all these years, my calculations are correct. We live in a world where time is accelerated. One day out there is the equivalent of ten years long for us. “

A smile appeared on the strange man's face, and he opened his eyes to look at his disciple and said, "Xiao Brown, you actually have a high talent. As long as you can have more faith in yourself, you can achieve a lot. “

When the brown-haired star official heard this, he couldn't help but be full of joy and said, "It's all master and senior brother, and they teach well. The strange man lowered his head and sighed: "You and I have the fate of master and apprentice, you can go, be a free and easy person, and do what you like." “

The brown-haired star officer was taken aback, he had never thought of leaving the Star Tower, he had grown up here, and he had long regarded this place as his home. He hurriedly knelt down and cried, "Master, what did I do wrong. I must change, please don't drive me away. “

The strange man touched his head and couldn't help but sigh and said, "Forget it, everything is doomed." I can't blame you, and I can't blame me. His words made the brown-haired star officer a little overwhelmed, and he fell silent for a while.

The two of them waited at the top of the tower for an unknown amount of time. The side door on the side finally opened. As soon as Balatu came up, he fell straight to the ground. "Minibus, that's amazing. I really didn't expect you to come up. “

The brown-haired star officer was a little surprised and picked up Balatu, it seemed that the master's subordinates showed mercy, but in the end, there were still two hundred floors, and it still took amazing perseverance to come up on his own. It seems that this little junior brother is really not simple.

When Baratu woke up from his coma, he could see the starry sky above him. Without the obscuration of the clouds, the stars are unusually clear. He was a little overjoyed and said, "I've finally climbed up." ”

"Very good, minibus, you have passed my test, and I can take you as an apprentice. Let me ask you another question, what do you think, what is power? The strange man's voice rang out. Baratu quickly got up, and saw the strange man sitting on a stargazing platform in mid-air, looking at himself.

What is power, Baratu kept thinking in his heart. After a while, he couldn't get a definite answer, so he could only say helplessly: "Master, I don't know." His answer made the strange man a little annoyed and said, "Idiot, don't think about it, answer me like this." ”

The brown-haired young man on the side hurriedly said, "Master, don't be angry, this question is too difficult." "Why, do you think it's too difficult? I've been teaching you for so long, and you two should roll out of the Star Tower and blow the wind well. There has to be someone who can answer my questions. The strange man shouted.

An unstoppable force came, and Baratu and Brown found themselves driven out of the tower. And they stood on a narrow edge. The terrible wind outside the tower blew, and Balatu hurriedly grabbed Xiao Brown's arm, he shook his body, and his face turned pale with fright.

"Minibus, don't be afraid, don't look down, Senior Brother is here, as long as Master's anger is gone, we can go in. The brown-haired star official forced a calm smile, he stretched out his hand to grasp the surface of the tower, and the spiritual power of his whole body surged out, forming a shield to protect the two of them.

I don't know how long it took, and both of them were about to freeze over. Balatu cheered up and asked, "It's all my fault, brother, do you know the answer?" "Alas, I can't think of it, if only my senior brother was here. This time, Master doesn't know why, we must have someone to come up with the answer. The brown-haired star officer bowed his head and sighed.

Hearing this, Balatu's brain exploded like thunder. "Do you want us to have one? Baratu said softly, his tone sad beyond words. It's like talking to yourself, and it's like questioning everyone.

"Minibus, are you alright? Hold on to me, or you'll fall and you'll be finished. The brown-haired young man said in a loud voice. He looked at his little junior brother and let go of his hand. He looked at himself with some sadness and said, "Senior brother, I really don't want this. ”

Before Xiao Brown could react, he saw a dagger stuck under his ribs. The pain in the body is not comparable to the pain in the heart. An incomparably cold enveloped Xiao Brown, and he said with a shocked expression, "Why are you doing this?" ”

Looking at the brown-haired star officer, Baratu remembered all the kindness of the other party and the care he had taken care of for many days. He flashed the other party's gaze, and finally spoke: "I just want to live and find that answer." ”

"Master, what do you really want? It's not that easy, let's die together. The brown-haired star officer let out a low roar, and he reached out and grabbed Balatu. At this time, he saw the inexplicable ease on Balatu's face. "Perhaps, we are all dead. It's better for the world. ”

Hearing this, the brown-haired star officer seemed to understand. He remembered his brother's words, and remembered the scars that his master had hidden behind the mask. "Live, take my share. Tell Master that I don't owe Him any more. The brown-haired star officer chuckled softly, and he let go of his hand and let himself fall from the star tower.
