Chapter 1017: Elder Xiong
Gu Yuan faced Elder Ai, slowly stretched out his hand, palm facing up, then closed his eyes, frowned and carefully perceived.
In Elder Ai's astonished gaze, a golden bronze divine tree projection appeared in the palm of his hand, looking very small, about three inches away.
The golden leaves on the bronze god tree now looked like a little golden point of light, pure and bright.
When Gu Yuan clenched his fists and the projection dissipated, Elder Ai exhaled.
"Elder Ai, do I have a temperament now?" Gu Yuan joked.
Elder Ai looked at the young man in front of him and nodded slightly, his eyes full of approval.
"Yes, Li Siming, the last guardian of the Bronze Divine Tree, is now the mainstay of the Great Xia Kingdom, I am looking forward to how far you can grow, I hope you don't let me down."
Gu Yuan felt strange in his heart when he heard this.
It was as if the Bronze Divine Tree had been given to him by Elder Ai.
Obviously, this is something that the Li family has guarded for generations, okay!
"Elder Ai, hasn't Guanlong Mountain studied the origin of this Bronze Divine Tree all these years?" Gu Yuan leaned forward and asked in a low voice.
It may be because of the mystery of the Bronze Divine Tree that Gu Yuan unconsciously lowered his voice when he spoke.
Elder Ai looked at him and said, "What do you think?" ”
"I think it's definitely been studied." Gu Yuan said without thinking.
Elder Ai smiled, stood up, and walked to the desk to sit down again.
"When we knew about the existence of the Bronze Divine Tree, we never gave up snooping on it, but there was no progress, after all, even the Li family, who had guarded the Divine Tree for so many years, didn't know anything about the Bronze Divine Tree, let alone us?"
Gu Yuan frowned and nodded.
Elder Ai continued: "However, according to our speculation, this Bronze Divine Tree is closely related to this world, and once the Bronze Divine Tree begins to wither, then correspondingly, a disaster will usher in somewhere in this world, and the Li family has been recording it. ”
"Isn't there any early warning?" Gu Yuan asked.
If it was really as Elder Ai said, then they could completely judge whether there had been a disaster recently based on the situation of the Bronze Divine Tree.
Elder Ai shook his head and said, "The interval is too short to react, and besides, even if we have enough time, it is actually useless because we don't know where the specific location is." ”
Gu Yuan pondered for a moment and found that this was indeed the truth.
"But what is certain is that the fate of the Bronze Divine Tree and this world is intertwined." Elder Ai said, "If one day, the Bronze Divine Tree completely loses its vitality, perhaps, our world will also suffer a devastating blow. ”
Gu Yuan's spirit was shocked.
Speaking of this, Elder Ai also had a wry smile on his face.
"This is the most terrifying thing, we can't figure out the laws of the Bronze Divine Tree, we can't read its information, we don't even know where it came from and why it exists, but what we know is that once an accident happens to the Bronze Divine Tree, our world will usher in a disaster, Gu Yuan, don't you think it's terrible?"
Gu Yuan nodded and said with a wry smile: "So, I don't think I can really carry such an important thing." ”
Elder Ai slowly put away the smile on his face, looked at Gu Yuan, and nodded thoughtfully.
"Actually, that's what I think."
Gu Yuan: "......"
It's really a loss of face at all.
"If there is a choice, we will spend a lot of time to select a good enough talent, and set all kinds of strict rules for him, and even completely control his life, there is a movie, called "Truman's World", have you seen it?"
Gu Yuan nodded.
"We can create a Truman and let him live in the world we have constructed, and he doesn't need to do anything, just live in a fairy tale, because only in this way is the Bronze Sacred Tree the safest."
Elder Ai paused, took another sip of tea, and sighed: "However, we can't do this, the Bronze Divine Tree has its own choice, and when it is metaphysical enough, we can only trust its choice, although you kid ...... I always felt a little unreliable. ”
Gu Yuan said embarrassedly: "It doesn't have to be so real. ”
Elder Ai laughed, and said seriously: "I have already told you what I should say, you have to remember that this matter must not be revealed, after all, no one wants their fate to be controlled by a tree."
Moreover, when you know about the Bronze Divine Tree, you will also have a strong curiosity, and if the forces of other countries know about it, they will even join forces, so ...... Absolutely not revealed! ”
Gu Yuan nodded, even if Elder Ai didn't remind him, he wouldn't spread it all over the world, wouldn't that be asking for trouble for himself?
But when he heard Elder Ai's words, an idea suddenly popped up in Gu Yuan's mind.
He took a sip of tea, slowly put down the teacup, raised his head and looked at Elder Ai suspiciously, and asked, "Elder, you say, is it only our Great Xia that has this bronze divine tree?" When we consider it to be top secret, how can we be sure that there is no tree of the same kind in another part of the world? ”
Elder Ai was stunned for a moment, he looked at Gu Yuan and fell into deep thought.
……
In the other yard.
It was actually not far from Elder Ai's courtyard.
Guiyu stood at the gate of the courtyard, looking at the guards in front of him.
"Elder Xiong let you in." The guards stepped out of the way.
"Thank you." Gui Guiyu arched his hand and hurried to the threshold.
When he walked through the gate and came to the backyard, he heard the sound of snoring.
The spacious backyard looks more like a small martial arts field, with a row of weapon racks on both sides, on which are placed all kinds of weapons, from knives, guns, clubs to axes, hooks and forks, and a pair of meteor hammers weighing 100 catties on the ground.
The stone slabs under his feet had been smashed into many pieces, and even a deep pit had been smashed in some places, and at this time there was a shirtless sturdy man, obviously full of gray hair, but his body was exceptionally strong, and his powerful arm was as thick as an ordinary person's calf.
He wielded a big knife in his hand, the knife broke through the wind with great momentum, and when he saw Xuan Guiyu, his arm shook slightly, and the big knife came out of his hand and was firmly inserted into the weapon rack.
He walked to the table next to him, and there was an iron basin on it, he washed his face, picked up a towel and wiped his hands, and then picked up the kettle next to him and drank two large sips.
"I've seen Elder Xiong." Returning to Yu hurriedly took two more steps forward.
Elder Xiong looked at him and chuckled.
"I know what you want to say, but I advise you not to say it, that's not just what Elder Ai meant, it's the result of our discussion."
Hearing this, Gui Guiyu's heart suddenly sank to the bottom.
