Chapter 387: I Am God
"Are you Xu Fu?" Li Xiu looked at the strange man with some surprise.
Although it is only a sentence, in thousands of years of human history, there is only one person worthy of this sentence, that is, Xu Fu, who was ordered by Qin Shi Huang to lead thousands of boys and girls to the sea in search of the elixir of life.
"Could it be that Xiaoyue and they are virgins who went to sea with Xu Fu? Those who sleep in the coffins are the boys and girls?" Li Xiu connected many things at once.
But there are still a lot of doubts, Xu Fu should be a human on the earth, even if there is really a matter of going to sea to find the elixir of life, it should be on the earth, how did he run to the Dead Sea in the Demon Spirit Country? How can you stay on the Dead Sea for thousands of years? What does he mean when he says Satsuki that they are not human?
The strange man smiled and said, "It seems that you have also heard the story of Xu Fu going to sea, but the story I told you today may be a little different from the story you heard."
Li Xiu looked at the strange man and didn't speak, he really wanted to know what kind of story the strange man would tell.
"Do you know the origin of the doctrine of immortality?" The weirdo asked with a grin.
"Isn't it a hypothesis put forward by the priest?" Li Xiu pondered.
"Fang Shi was the first group of people who pursued the path of immortals, and it was indeed the work of the monks to ask for immortality, but who brought this matter up, there must be a source." The weirdo said.
"It's really not studied." Li Xiu shook his head and said.
The strange man smiled and said: "Pangu opened the world, Nuwa Fuxi created people, praised his father to chase the sun, Houyi shot the sun, in ancient mythology, human beings only played the role of being saved, until the era of the two emperors of Yan and Huang and Chiyou, human beings are still only a supporting role in the world, if you want to say who gave human beings the belief to seek the Tao and become immortals, maybe everyone has their own answer, and my answer is the appearance of the Tao."
"Taoist?" Li Xiu groaned.
"You can say Taoism, not Taoism, it can be seen that you still have some knowledge in this aspect, then I will tell this story easily."
The strange man looked at the sea in the distance and said quietly, "My story will begin with an enlightened person."
"Tao has never been a religion, there are many religions in the world, but no matter which sect, there are gods and demons, and human beings can only pray to gods and demons for protection. Only the Tao pursues the laws and principles between heaven and earth, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the Taoist is a scientist in ancient times. In ancient times, there was a young man who wanted to start a sect, create a doctrine, and want to be the originator of the mountain that will be passed down through the ages, but there were many grandmasters in that era, and although the young man also had some talents, he was still much inferior to everyone at that time."
"Although the young man knew that it was impossible for him to stand on his own with his talents, he was so arrogant that he refused to give up until he met someone, a man who should have died a long time ago."
"Who?" Although Li Xiu had vaguely guessed who was who, he still wanted to hear the strange man say the answer in person.
The strange man didn't answer him, but continued: "That man took the young man to a world that he couldn't even dream of, even if it was the fairy world, it was nothing more than that, and it caused an unimaginable mental impact on the young man, and he was as arrogant as the young man, and he had to admit that compared to this world, what he had thought and thought before was childish and ridiculous."
"After returning from that strange world, the man told the young man that soon he would get a great opportunity, and as long as he could grasp that opportunity, he would have the opportunity to ask for immortality and become the path of eternal life. However, the man said a few things, and the young man must complete them, otherwise it will be difficult to get a fairy fate."
"Sure enough, not long after, when the young man accompanied the then emperor on his tour of the sea, they saw the scene of the fairy mountain appearing on the sea, and the sight shocked everyone, even the supreme emperor in the world, was shocked by the sight..."
The weirdo spoke slowly. Li Xiu knew that the incident that the stranger was talking about should be that Qin Shi Huang saw a mirage on the seaside, and legend has it that Qin Shi Huang sent people to the sea to find the immortal mountain for the elixir of life.
"I know what you're thinking
Well, I can tell you for sure that what they see is not a mirage. Do you think that the Emperor of the Ages, who swept through the Liuhe Extinction and the Eight Desolations, would not even know about the mirage? Even if he didn't know, hadn't seen it, and there were so many strange people and strange people under his command, how could no one know what it was?"
The strange man laughed and said, "When the young man saw the vision, he knew that the time had come, so he boldly told the emperor what he had seen and heard in that incredible world, and according to the things that the man said, he asked the emperor to go to sea in search of the elixir of life, and according to what the man said, he built a ship of wood and took the boy and girl as sacrifices and went out to sea."
"It turns out that the boys and girls of Xu Fu's kelp are used as sacrifices, no wonder strange people say that Xiaoyue is not human." Li Xiu said secretly in his heart.
"The young man is very ambitious, thinking that after this voyage, he will get immortal fate and become the existence that is sent back to the emperor of the world, let alone start a sect, even if he stands on the emperor's head and and urine, how can the world help him? But when he really took the boy and the girl out to sea, he realized that everything was wrong...... And it's ridiculously wrong...... It's a decision he will regret for the rest of his life."
The strange man's face was almost obscured by his tousled hair and beard, but the tangled and painful expression on his face could still be seen.
"He didn't get the immortal fate?" Li Xiu asked.
"Yes, but that's not the immortality he wants, and if he could do it all over again, he'd rather face death than have that kind of immortality."
The strange man sighed: "If a person has immortality and immortality, but can only stay on the ship for the rest of his life, sailing alone in an endless world, there is no end, and it is difficult to get off the ship for eternity, do you want such an immortality?"
"I don't know." Li Xiu shook his head slightly.
"Of course you don't, because you haven't experienced that kind of loneliness." The strange man poured a sip of wine, then threw the wine jug to Li Xiu and said, "The young man has immortality, but all he wants now is to die, such a simple wish, any ordinary person has the ability, but he can no longer do it."
Li Xiu caught the flask, but he didn't drink, he still remembered that the president had said that he couldn't eat anything on the ship.
"You are Xu Fu who went to sea to find the elixir of life, who is that person you met?" Li Xiu stared at the strange man and asked.
"Who do you say?" The strange man asked rhetorically with a smile.
"President?" Li Xiu said.
"Did he tell you that you can't eat anything on board?" The strange man did not answer, and suddenly said such a sentence.
Li Xiu didn't answer, just looked at the strange man.
"You don't have to worry, he's in the guest room, he can't hear anything outside." The weirdo said. "It doesn't make any difference to me whether I can hear it or not." Li Xiu said.
"Really? Would you think that if I told you that you would never get off the ship if you didn't eat what was on board?" The strange man looked at Li Xiu and said with a smile.
"Why?" Li Xiu frowned.
"Because you are the person he sent to replace me, your fate in the future will be the same as mine, never old and immortal, and spend endless lonely years on this Dead Sea......" The strange man's voice was like a ghost, making the hairs on Li Xiu's body stand on end.
"You are a bit of a contradiction, since you are already immortal, what replacement do you need?" Li Xiu naturally didn't believe the words of strange people.
"Because he can't get what he wants from me, he must find an obedient man to take charge of the ship in my place, and he's done it before, but without success. You are different, you have the power to take my place."
The strange man sneered and continued, "You don't really think that he is going to take you to the Sea of Heaven, do you? There are many ways to get to the sea of heaven, why do you have to take this ship and drift at sea for so long? That's because you can only be a part of the ship if you stay long enough that even your soul will be imprinted on the ship and you will never be able to leave. This wine can resist the erosion of the big ship on you, and only when you drink the wine can you not be assimilated by the big ship, and you can get off the ship. If you think about it, he won't let you eat or drink
Why did he drink and eat meat so desperately?"
Li Xiu thought about it, it was true, if he wanted to go to the Sea of Heaven, he could use the Gate of Trials that directly reached the Sea of Heaven, and the president would be reluctant to seek the near and far, and it was indeed a bit unreasonable to wander on the Dead Sea by boat for so many days.
"What does he want from you?" Li Xiu looked at the strange man quietly and asked. "What else could it be, of course, those sacrifices." The weirdo replied.
"You mean Satsuki?" Li Xiu was slightly stunned.
The strange man laughed and said, "What do you think he tricked me into taking a boy or a girl to sea? He wants those boys and girls, those are the best bloodlines in the human race, and that's what he needs."
"With his ability, it shouldn't be difficult to grab it directly, it shouldn't be so troublesome." Li Xiu said.
"Didn't I tell you just now that Satsuki and the others are not human, at least they are not completely human anymore, and the blood of ordinary people is useless to him. The Eternal Life has been in the Dead Sea for thousands of years, and Xiao Yue and the others have been eroded by the power of the Dead Sea, and they are no longer ordinary human beings, and now they are what he needs." The strange man laughed and said, "I've finished telling the story, believe it or not, the wine is in your hands, it's up to you whether you drink it or not, whether you get off the boat or not, that's your business, you choose."
After that, the strange man turned around and walked towards the cabin, and when he arrived at the hatch, he suddenly turned his head, showed Bai Sensen's teeth, and said to Li Xiu again: "If you don't believe it, when you are sleeping, someone knocks on the door, you can open the door and take a look."
"Who knocked on the door?" Li Xiu frowned and asked.
"Those who used to have nothing to eat on the boat." The strange man went into the cabin.
Li Xiu frowned and was silent, although there were many flaws in what the strange man said, it was not completely unreasonable.
"This thing is getting more and more interesting, according to the weirdo, he is Xu Fu, and the person who gave him the opportunity is not the great power of Taoism... Then the president—" Li Xiu looked at the undulating sea, but felt more and more interesting.
After a while, seeing that the dragon head did not react, no demon spirit approached the big ship, and the president never came out, Li Xiu went back to his room to rest.
Not long after he lay down, there was another knock at the door.
"Who?" Li Xiu sat up and looked at the door of the room and asked.
There was no answer, there was still a rhythmic knock on the door, Li Xiu looked at the door and couldn't help but think of what the strange man said.
"Is it really someone who hasn't eaten or drunk on the ship before?" Li Xiu had the urge to open the door and take a look.
However, Li Xiu still suppressed the impulse in his heart, lay down and continued to sleep, ignoring the knock on the door.
For several days, Li Xiu slept hungry every day, because he had never met a god-rank demon spirit, and he had no interest in killing those ordinary demon spirits.
Although the demon spirits that can survive in the Dead Sea are at least light-based level, it is a pity that Li Xiu is no longer interested in light-based demon spirits now.
When he saw the strange man again, the strange man didn't even look at Li Xiu, and after that time, the strange man didn't talk to him again, as if the last conversation had not happened at all.
It will grow to the same as before, eating and drinking without caring about it, and he didn't say anything to Li Xiu, just let Li Xiu rest more and conserve his strength.
Every time Li Xiu sleeps, there will be a knock on the door, but it won't be too long, most of them just knock on the door ten times rhythmically, Li Xiu didn't open the door, and the knock disappeared.
Time passed day by day, and gradually, Li Xiu had a strange feeling, and he gradually seemed to have a sense of this big ship.
This kind of induction is very wonderful, once when Li Xiu returned to the room, when he wanted to open the door, before he could reach out to push the door, the door actually opened by itself.
At that time, Li Xiu thought that there was something in his room, and after looking around, he found nothing, only to find that there was nothing in the room at all, and the reason why the door opened was because of his consciousness.
Li Xiu did some experiments and found that sure enough, he could use his consciousness to order the door to open, and he could also make the tables and chairs automatically come to him.
Even more terrifying
, he can even sense the warning of the dragon's head on the bow of a large ship.
When he was in the room, he sensed the warning of the dragon road, and originally thought it was his own illusion, but when he went out to the deck, he found that the dragon's head had indeed reacted, and a god-level demon spirit approached the big ship. This made Li Xiu have to rethink what the stranger said to him, and his eyes couldn't help but look at the pot of wine on the table.
That god-rank demon spirit was far inferior to the black dragon, Li Xiu only used the forbidden spear to bombard it and snatch its demon core, but unfortunately nothing exploded, let alone the god-rank gem, not even the talent gem.
The body of the demon spirit was pulled to the ship by Li Xiu, this is a god-level material, and it will be brought back to the old official to make a demon costume in the future.
As the days passed, Li Xiu's sense of the big ship became more and more keen, and he could even sense the fluctuations of the friction between the big ship and the sea water when it was moving in the sea, but whenever a demon spirit approached the big ship, Li Xiu could sense it without the dragon's head warning him.
Even the form and level of the demon spirit could be sensed clearly, which made Li Xiu a little confused.
When he saw the president again, Li Xiu decided to hear what the president had to say.
While the president had eaten and was smoking dry tobacco there alone, Li Xiu walked over. Before Li Xiu could speak, the president smiled and said, "Don't say anything, just remember what I said to you before I came."
Li Xiu was stunned, and only after a while did he laugh and said, "How long will it take to reach the Sea of Heaven?" "It's coming, four days at most, and it should be there." The president smoked a dry cigarette with a dignified expression.
"Guan Jinghao told me one thing." Li Xiu continued.
The president turned his head, looked at Li Xiu and said with a smile, "He said I'm not human, right?" "Are you?" Li Xiu's gaze did not back down and looked at the president.
"From his point of view, he's right." The president's answer was a little surprising to Li Xiu. "Where are you from?" Demon Kingdom?" Li Xiu asked again.
"You're half right." The president said with a smile.
This answer made many thoughts flash through Li Xiu's heart, and he stared at the president with a complicated expression and said, "You established the Demon Kingdom?"
"Clever." The president's expression was full of approval.
"You are the Heavenly Emperor of the Demon Kingdom?" Although he had already guessed the answer, Li Xiu was still a little surprised. The president smiled and said nothing, which was a tacit acquiescence.
"So, you're not from the Demon Kingdom, you're from the outside world?" Li Xiu looked at the president with a complicated expression.
"It's not unusual, isn't your sister from the outside world, is it worth the fuss?" The president said with a grin.
"You know my sister?" Li Xiu was shocked.
"The eighth child gave me a heavenly measurement machine, and found out that I died because of the spirit, your sister's name is Han Ling'er, and people are afraid of death when they are old, so I went to find out." The president spat out a puff of smoke rings and said nonchalantly. "So what?" Li Xiu stared at the president and asked.
If the president wants to be unfavorable to Han Ling'er, even if he fights for his life, he can't let the president succeed.
"You may not believe me." The president said lightly.
"How do you know I don't believe if you don't tell me?" Li Xiu asked rhetorically.
"Would you believe me if I said that your sister was not qualified to kill me?" The president stared at Li Xiu and said with a smile.
Li Xiu looked at the president and didn't speak, he actually didn't believe it, although the president was very strong, but Li Xiu felt that Han Ling'er should be stronger, at least the two of them gave him this feeling.
"You think your sister is strong, that's right, she is really strong, so strong that even I am a little surprised, but at the end of the day, she is essentially no different from you, and I am different."
The president said slowly.
"What's the difference?" Li Xiu stared at the president and asked.
"She's human... And I'm ...... It's a god......" the president said, squinting his eyes
