Chapter 4: Tanu
"I'm like those orbs of light, sucked into the Tower of Eternity...... What about those balls of light?"
Faced with such a strange encounter, Nie Fei was shocked and confused. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
He looked back and forth, left and right, and saw many cracks in the golden walls, cobwebs spreading open.
Among some of the cracks, there is a green light, and after the green light flashes, the cracks are much shallower, and some of the shallower cracks are directly healed, leaving no traces.
"It looks like the orbs of light have been sucked into the wall to mend the cracks. ”
Nie Fei saw some clues, he saw a door-shaped mark on a wall, so he walked over and wanted to push it to see if it was a door, could he push it open?
As a result, the wall was always so close and not far from him, neither shortened nor lengthened as he retreated, like a mirror, visible but unreachable.
"Hahaha, the old man is finally free. ”
Suddenly, a voice came from behind, and it buzzed, as if it were coming from a deep well.
"Who is it?!"
Nie Fei was taken aback, and hurriedly turned around, only to see a thin, thin white-haired old man leaping out of the well, and landed on the ground lightly and skillfully, without making any sound, like a ghost.
The old man was disheveled, in tattered clothes, and dirty, like a begging flower child on the street.
He seemed to be a dog, sniffed around Nie Fei, suddenly put his face in front of Nie Fei's eyes, and said, "Uncle, Gui Geng?"
Nie Fei was taken aback, angry and funny: "Your uncle, I'm only seventeen years old this year. ”
The old man didn't think he was angry, and said with a smile: "You look like this at the age of seventeen, you are too anxious! At first glance, I thought you were seventy or eighty." ”
Nie Fei didn't bother to entangle with him, and said, "Who are you and why are you here?"
The old man stared at him and asked, "Why are you here?"
Nie Fei said with a grin, "Of course I was brought in by this Tower of Eternity, otherwise who would have come to this ghost place." ”
The old man pursed his lips: "You are still so angry when you have a baby, you are also the first one." ”
"Baby, I think it's almost the same as the Scourge, you know how miserable it hurt me......"
The more Nie Fei spoke, the more angry he became, and told all the history of torture, bitterness, and humiliation he had suffered in the past three years.
After hearing this, the old man didn't sympathize with his plight at all, but leaned back with a smile: "You are really unlucky to be home." The old man asked himself how well-informed, and it was the first time he had met someone as unlucky as you!"
Nie Fei couldn't see this kind of guy who fell into the well, and he couldn't wait to rush over to Haibian and beat the other party, but considering that he might not be able to beat it, he endured it, and said angrily: "My bad luck is all because of the Tower of Eternity, I don't know how well I live without it." ”
Hearing this, the old man suddenly suppressed his smile and said solemnly: "Big mistake! Your real bad luck is not that you have met the Tower of Eternity, but that you have not met a dead person in the past three years. ”
Nie Fei scoffed: "Who said I haven't seen a dead person? In the past three years, I have seen not a hundred, but seventy or eighty dead people. ”
The old man glared: "I'm sure that the dead people you see are already dead, and they are definitely not dead people who have just died, and their bodies are still warm." ”
Nie Fei was stunned, and was really guessed by the other party.
He hesitated and asked, "What's the difference between the two?"
The old man said: "The soul of a dead person has long since disappeared. And for those who have just died, the soul is still in the body and has not dissipated. ”
Nie Fei's heart moved, and he connected with the vision he had just seen: "The green ball of light emerging from the dead man's body is the soul of a person?"
The old man nodded: "The soul is not something that ordinary people can see, and the Tower of Eternity makes you unique." Devouring souls, this is the secret of the Tower of Eternity. ”
Nie Fei was stunned: "For the past three years, the Tower of Eternity has been devouring my soul, so I have become the person I am now who is not like a human and a ghost is not like a ghost?"
The old man said: "This is from three years ago, at that time, it was your luck that you could pick up the Tower of Eternity, but after all, it is a foreign object, and when it enters your body, it will be rejected and attacked, and it has to abolish you first." ”
Nie Fei listened very carefully.
The old man continued: "The so-called broken and then established, after that, you will get a new life, and become one with the tower, as long as you work hard to cultivate, the lost cultivation can not only be restored, but also get unexpected powerful power...... Unfortunately, the Tower of Eternity was badly damaged before it met you, and it was in dire need of a large number of souls to repair the damage, and you never provided other souls for it. In desperation, it had no choice but to deny its relatives and began to devour the soul of your host. ”
He breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "Actually, as long as anyone dies within a kilometer of you, the Tower of Eternity will be able to absorb that person's soul, and at that time, you will also be able to discover the secrets of the Tower of Eternity." There are people dying all the time in the world, but for three years, you have not encountered a single case. Didn't you pour eight lifetimes of blood mold?"
Nie Fei had nothing to say, if it weren't for the bloody fight just now, he really didn't know how long he would have been kept in the dark?
He had only one question: "Why does the Tower of Eternity devour me with light and not you?"
The old man jumped three feet high: "Who said it didn't devour me? In the past three years, it has trapped me at the bottom of the well, sucking it day and night, do you know how heavy I used to be? Not to mention that I was a big fat man of six or seven hundred pounds, now you look at it, there is only skin and bones left." Hey, it's all tears. ”
In the end, he sighed and looked sad.
Nie Fei groaned, "Old man, are you a lonely ghost trapped in the tower?"
The old man snorted and said dissatisfiedly: "The old man is a lonely ghost, not a wild ghost! You and I are both Tanu." ”
"What do you mean by Tanu?"
"Fool, Tanu is a slave to the Tower of Eternity, and the moment your soul enters the tower, this ritual is complete, and the tower will give you great power, so that you can provide it with a steady stream of souls. The Tower of Eternity doesn't need souls to keep it running at all times, and if you accidentally cut off the supply, the past will repeat itself. ”
"In that case, why don't I feel like I've changed?"
"Nonsense, the meal has to be eaten in one bite, and the road has to be walked step by step. Towers can help you cultivate and fight, but they can't make you strong out of thin air. You still don't have any cultivation at all, and you're a waster. When you return to your body and redirect the Heaven and Earth Vitality into your body, the power of the tower will manifest itself in you. ”
Speaking of this, the old man suddenly smiled evilly, and continued: "As a senior, I can tell you in advance what power the tower will bring you. Want to know?"
Nie Fei was looking forward to it, but he had a strange feeling: "Don't tell me, that power doesn't help me in my current situation." ”
"Haha, you're such a genius child. In fact, that power is envied by everyone, but if it is not on the right path, it is really useless. ”
The old man is still selling.
Nie Fei couldn't wait to say, "What exactly is that power?"
The old man spoke very slowly, and then he said word by word: "The eyes of the sky are clear!" It can see through everything without hindrance, that is, perspective, you kid can feast your eyes in the future, and read countless springs in the world, hehehehe......"
After hearing this, Nie Fei also laughed, he was nicknamed Little Rascal, which was quite suitable for this power, but at this moment and then, there was more helplessness than happiness in his smile.
"By the way, old man, what shall I call you in the future?"
Nie Fei inquired about the identity of the other party.
The old man held his head high and said with a full spirit: "I am the all-knowing and all-powerful Tanu, dozens of generations earlier than you. Just call me Jin Lao!"
Nie Fei's eyes moved: "There are still many generations of this Tanu?"
Jin Lao said without thinking: "It's more than cow hair." If I'm not mistaken, you should be the 1,239,876th generation of Tanu. ”
Nie Fei was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth, and after a long while, he said in disbelief: "Are you fooling me, what about the others?"
"Why does the old man want to fool you? To be honest, all those in front of me are dead, and those in front of you are not dead. Haha, I'm not very good. Tell you, the old man is just a legend, don't worship me!"
Jin Lao sometimes pretends to be deep, sometimes hippie smiling, and can't figure out which sentence is true and which sentence is false?
Nie Fei looked stunned, but he didn't dig deeper, and from then on, it was the right thing to start making good use of the Tower of Eternity. In the future, he will get back all the things he has lost in the past three years, bit by bit. First of all, this body is not even a normal person now, let alone cultivating, and it must find a way to recover as soon as possible.
"Boy, what's the matter, you still go out and think slowly, during the time you were in the tower, your body was unconscious and unconscious, but the kid outside was so anxious that he couldn't do it, and he kept delivering vitality to you, but you are now empty, there is no use for birds at all, and you are wasting vitality in vain. ”
Jin Lao looked with wide eyes, and a purple 'swastika' symbol appeared in his pupils, which was both mysterious and demonic.
At first sight, Nie Fei understood something, and said, "You are a Heavenly Eye?"
"Of course, it can see through more than just women's clothes!"
Jin Lao is serious and mysterious.
"Am I not ...... You've seen it!?"
Nie Fei subconsciously covered his crotch.
Jin Lao said disdainfully: "Just your little earthworm, what's there to see?"
Nie Fei jumped up: "Fart, I'm a deep-sea python! You old pervert, don't look at it in the future." ”
Jin Lao touched his chin, and asked seriously and suspiciously: "The giant python is the giant python, why do you still add the word deep sea?"
Nie Fei clasped his hands to his chest, his face full of pride and pride: "But everything in the sea is bigger than the one on land, so ...... Damn, I'm going to explain to you! Tell me, how am I going to get back?"
Without saying a word, Jin Lao Er suddenly flew up and kicked him into the well.
"Ahh
In the scream, Nie Fei woke up, the experience just now was like a dream, and then, he saw a big slap slap coming towards him.
"Didn't you say that you were transporting vitality? Why did you slap it!"
Nie Fei couldn't say what he was suffering about.
Fortunately, the other party reined in the precipice and stopped his hand in time, otherwise, he would definitely have left a bright red palm print on his face, and I am afraid that a few teeth would also fall out.
"Ah Fei, why did you suddenly wake up again! without warning......"
Dongfang Jun was both surprised and embarrassed, and his hands froze in mid-air.
Nie Fei glared: "Wow, if I don't wake up, you will use this dirt method to wake me up?"
Dongfang Jun had a straight face, and seemed to be angrier than him: "If you don't wake up again, I will beat you to death!"
Before the words fell, the two looked at each other and laughed.
After laughing, Nie Fei said very seriously: "Brother, I'm sorry to worry you." I'm okay now, completely fine. From now on, I can start cultivating again......"
He couldn't hide his joy in his words.
