Chapter 424: Generational Change and the "End" (5400 words)
Presentation of the magician, dog...... No, the Dog Emperor, no, the Dog Master, I understand, the evil and crazy smile is even more presumptuous.
Lord of the Dogs: "Wang-Wang!" ”
Zheng Xiu and the orange cat glanced at each other, but they couldn't understand what the other party was barking.
I wondered.
It is normal for normal people to not understand dog language, but Zheng Xiu is a god, and Anne is the master of loopholes, for gods, "language" will not become an "obstacle" in their communication at all, not to mention that Zheng Xiu also understands [foreign language].
Even so, Zheng Xiu and Anne still couldn't understand. It seems that between dogs and people, there is a "language barrier" that even the master cannot easily break through.
The magician smiled, "Only its 'empowered' existence can understand its language. ”
Zheng Xiu was surprised for a moment, and suddenly realized in his heart, and he no longer looked down on what seemed to be a dog, but in fact it was also a terrible existence. In an instant, it seemed that a dog whisper slapped open Zheng Xiu's Heavenly Spirit Gai, and he felt that he had vaguely touched the true meaning of the level of "master".
Concentrate a little and reach the top. The master of the dog will take the "dog" to the extreme, the real dog, the poor dog, the endless dog, the dog to the end, the road is also completed, back to the basics.
"Wait, don't you think it's weird?" Anne saw the comprehension expression on Zheng Xiu's face, and looked confused: "Is it so easy to dominate?" Isn't that all the streets full of 'domination'? ”
"Ahem." The magician lifted his top hat, and his fair face showed a look of embarrassment but politeness, and he rested his gaze on the small hole in Anne's chest for a moment, and explained: "This adult who was 'elegant' not long ago has accidentally become a 'loophole'. ”
"Huh?"
The smile on the magician's face remained undiminished, but the next sentence seemed to be full of vicissitudes.
"Once, yes."
Anne was shocked: "Huh? ”
The magician shook his head: "You've been away for too long. It's been too long, too long, too long. ”
Looking at the bat statues all over the yard, Anne, who had endured it for a long time, finally broke out, she slapped her paw on the table, and the cat's whiskers twitched wildly: "Blame me??? ”
"Ahem, ahem."
The magician coughed dryly and snapped his fingers. Smack~ All the bat gardeners in the yard slowly turned around and changed directions, turning their backs to Anne at the same time. The main one is to cover his ears and steal the bell, and his eyes are not clean.
Zheng Xiu touched Anne's hairy head, Anne instantly quieted down, picked up the black tea and took a sip.
The magician looked at Zheng Xiu with gratitude, and then let out a soft sigh: "Once...... Yes. ”
At this time, the Sunny Sky Doll suddenly interrupted the "peak conversation" on the table: "Tracked down that guy!" Sure enough, that guy was able to speed up towards a coordinate in the Black Source Sea where there was no 'route'! If this route is tracked, our brothers in the ship ...... It may bear the impact of 'time', 'space', 'reincarnation', 'pollution', and 'numerology'! ”
The magician waved his hand: "Open all the out-of-bounds defenses, close all the passages." ”
"So, it's a huge cost. I'm afraid I won't be able to make it to the next show. ”
"It's okay."
The magician lowered the brim of his hat and smiled, "This may be our last show." ”
Zheng Xiu's gaze froze slightly.
The lights around him suddenly became flickering, and Zheng Xiu looked at the sky around him while listening to the sound of the Nether of the Magic God Kingdom.
Wailing, lamenting, weeping, hissing.
Time is accelerating, space is oscillating.
Someone has just been born, and in the blink of an eye, he has become a handful of ashes. And some people are young and young, and in a blink of an eye, they have entered the next reincarnation.
The parting of life and death is rapidly staged in the Nether. Natural disasters, unscrupulously unleashed in the Nether.
When Zheng Xiu listened to the "Voice of All Things", the magician seemed to know that Zheng Xiu was listening, and said slowly: "Divinity is benevolent, rational, and efficient, but at the same time, it is also cruel. ”
"If you don't become a god, you will end up as an ant. We pity the ants, but at the same time, we will also turn a blind eye to the 'fate' of the ants. The magician picked up the teacup, took a sip helplessly, and asked Zheng Xiu, who looked calm: "If you see a nest of ants in a turbulent river that will be flooded by the river at any time, will you save it?" ”
Zheng Xiu replied quickly: "It can be saved, but it can't be saved." ”
"Qualified God."
The magician nodded, and he snapped his fingers again. In the garden, long black boxes that looked like coffins rose silently. Each box was tied with layers of chains, and in front of each box, there was a person from the Zheng family.
Qing 13 and the others looked at the box in front of them in a daze, the chains on the box automatically fell off, and the box opened, and the inside was as deep as a black hole.
Zheng Xiu frowned, revealing half a doubt.
"Magic: The Great Change." The magician smiled, "The destination of this ship is not reserved for mortals. This magic trick can turn people into; 'Self in a hundred years'. They all have seeds of authority and have the possibility of becoming gods. If you can't become a god after a hundred years, then you can simply spend the rest of your life in the illusory 'magic', maybe this is a happier thing. ”
When everyone heard this, their faces changed.
Anne's eyes flashed, she was silent for a moment, and said solemnly to Zheng Xiu: "Although I don't want to admit it, he is ...... Reasonable. ”
"As for surviving the rest of their lives in the real world...... the magician smiled apologetically as he mentioned another possibility, "I'm sorry, I could have used the escape route to get them to the location where I was anchored." Unfortunately, now, there is no place for mortals to stand in the four quadrants. ”
“…… All things are coming to an end. ”
Zheng Xiu slowly spit out six words.
When the magician heard this, he was slightly stunned and surprised: "You know? ”
Zheng Xiu nodded: "I heard it." ”
"Where?"
"Black source sea."
"You're in it!?" The magician's face changed, and the delicate teacup in his hand shattered to the ground. But he quickly noticed his gaffe, flipped his palm, and turned into a magic trick, and the cup was restored, along with the hot tea inside.
"It's soaked." Zheng Xiu didn't hide it.
"Hah...... Ha ha. 6! ”
The magician sat back down.
"I kind of get it." Not far away, Qing 13 lowered his head and lit a cigarette stick, squinting his eyes: "It seems that we don't have a choice." ”
"A hundred years......" Xi'er had a bitter face.
Yue Linglong closed her eyes, her slender eyelashes trembling slightly.
All but two were silent. They have gone all the way, especially after the Divine Kingdom built by Fengbei has experienced a vicious war, and they know the horror of the "Divine War". Above the gods, mortals are not even qualified to be cannon fodder. What's more, there are two "masters" sitting here, a cat and a dog.
Qing 13 slowly spit out a bells and whistles smoke ring, and grinned: "How many people can enter this box?" Qing didn't mean anything else, he just wanted to have a companion. ”
The magician politely stretched out his hand and gestured, "Of course." ”
Ji Hongrong took the initiative to hold the rest of his life with pendants on his body, like the birth of the demon boy Little Thunder God, and held the hand of Qing Thirteen with the other hand. The three of them bowed deeply to Zheng Xiu at the same time, and this posture was maintained for three seconds before they got up and said in unison: "Master, see you in a hundred years." ”
"Father, mother, will the child become an old man?"
"It's okay, I'm getting old, I'm very handsome." Ji Hongrong touched the child's head.
Qing Yusheng seems to understand whether he understands or not.
Qing 13 said: "Don't worry, after a hundred years, Lao Tzu will definitely be more handsome than his son." ”
"Phew, you haven't passed through in your life, and you're more handsome than your son." Ji Hongrong complained, paused, and smiled: "However, you have chosen a good name for our son seriously." ”
"Celebrate the rest of your life, celebrate the rest of your life, this time it's time for the scene." The three of them entered hand in hand.
Pei Gaoya rushed in without saying a word, he had already lost his concerns.
"I have a question." Xi'er looked at Zheng Xiu shyly: "If Xi'er's hair is gray, is it still beautiful?" ”
Zheng Xiu thought for a while: "It's good-looking." ”
Xi'er happily walked into the box with her fingers twisted.
"When we become gods, our old waist can be cured! If you can't cure it, you will earn blood if you live for another hundred years! The old doctor thought about it, he was happy, and he really didn't lose anything. Jun Buxiao suddenly appeared behind the old doctor, hehe, he laughed strangely, kicked at the old doctor's waist, the old doctor screamed and disappeared into the magic box, Jun Buxiao also turned his head and made a grimace at Zheng Xiu, and got in.
"Old man......"
The four orchid girls turned around in three steps.
Leaf and Snake sisters hold hands.
"It's okay to go in and be an official for another hundred years!" Jiang Gaoyi is high-spirited and chatting about juvenile madness.
"Big brother, wait for the little monk for a hundred years, let's go and bring our sister back together!"
The monk touched his bald head, smiled purely, and walked chicly.
The blind king walked in with a smile and carrying a box that was motionless Gu Qiutang.
One by one, they entered the room, and they understood the magician's words, accepted their cowardice, and went to their own fate.
In the end, only the moon is exquisite.
After she opened her eyes, her gaze never left Zheng Xiu from beginning to end, and she didn't say a word.
Until there was no one around.
Zheng Xiu looked at Yue Linglong: "Yue'er, you don't have to force yourself." ”
When Yue Linglong heard this, she smiled playfully, and forcibly suppressed the complicated emotions in her eyes: "Yue'er doesn't want to lose to her." She walked towards the magical magic box, took half a step, Yue Linglong's shoulders trembled slightly, she couldn't help but turn around, her lips were slightly white, and she opened her mouth several times, with a thousand questions. She knew she shouldn't ask, and she couldn't ask. In the end, when it came to his mouth, there was only one sentence left: "If Yue'er is incompetent, she will spend the rest of her life in it, and she can't get out, husband...... Will you forget Yue'er? ”
“…… No. ”
Zheng Xiu replied.
Yue Linglong smiled with relief.
She, from the very beginning, only wanted a position, a place in Zheng Xiu's heart.
That's all.
She wasn't the only one, not the only one from the beginning.
……
Soon, in the magician's garden, there were only two gods and cats and dogs, a sunny day doll, and a magic box full of yards.
The seemingly relaxed but heavy farewell again and again made Zheng Xiu silently pick up the cup and sip the black tea, his eyes flashed, and there were no waves. There was a moment just now, he hated his divinity, and he could look at this parting so rationally, he didn't know how many people they could break through the lifespan of mortals after they walked into this box, and they would be able to change into living gods. But the "sadness", "regret", "amazement", "hatred", and "helplessness" were all cut away by divinity like a knife at the moment he first appeared, and only the "divinity" and "humanity" of meditation remained in his heart, and a clear lake with no waves like a mirror.
Anne frowned: "Is it so fast to become a god now?" ”
Anne felt as if there were thousands of dogs running wildly in her heart, and there was a sense of absurdity that "times have changed".
"It's not fast." The magician thought for a moment and said, "The fastest record...... It should be the kung fu of a glass of wine. ”
"Let's get down to business." Zheng Xiu's index finger tapped lightly on the table, and the casual afternoon tea atmosphere in the garden was incompatible with the current grim situation. Zheng Xiu sensed that the "magic" of the magician was not without a price.
The magician locked everyone in the box in this way, as if he had something to say. Of course, with the ability of a magician, he will not use the magic trick of "changing the living person" to press the bottom of the box just for this reason, and Zheng Xiu is grateful from the bottom of his heart for the gift of the magician.
The magician saw through one of Zheng Xiu's thoughts, and said with a smile: "There is no other meaning, if these words are heard by the children, I am afraid that even the musical concepts of 'hard work', 'struggle', and so on will be wiped out in an instant, and only boundless 'despair' will remain." ”
Exquisite pastries and cookies appeared on the table.
The dog gnawed deliciously.
"Once upon a time......
The magician sat elegantly with Erlang's legs crossed, and used a corny opening statement.
"Similar legends circulate in all four quadrants."
"And next door to me is 'the master of the source sea, there must not be a tenth place'."
Anne nodded, recalling memories that she had almost forgotten: "When I was still stuck in the bottleneck of becoming a god, I vaguely heard of it. ”
"Of course, at that time, everyone was still online, and they were all online." The magician smiled:
"In that era, the rulers had pursuits, and we sailed according to the rules, walked one route after another, gathered the world's ships, and destroyed all obstacles in the way."
"We fight, we huddle, we create, we destroy, and the gods and masters are frantically strengthening themselves."
"We longed to reach the 'end'."
"Legend has it that there is 'everything' that both gods and masters desire, that is 'everything' that any master can or cannot imagine."
"But after an incomparably long voyage, all the gods and masters despair to discover that there is no 'end'."
"So, they stopped sailing."
"The antiques who have lived for an unknown number of eras, some are worried, some are afraid, some find life boring, and some want to seek better opponents...... For various reasons, a few juggernauts took the lead and played a 'game'. ”
"A ...... The so-called gods and above can bet on the 'competitive game' in which they can participate. ”
"It's a sinking ship, a celestial pride who has been sidelined and turned back."
Zheng Xiu listened quietly, he felt that what the magician said was too far away from him. Zheng Xiu couldn't help but glance down at the orange cat who was drinking black tea with a straw, and the orange cat rolled his eyes: "Don't look at me, at that time, those existences were all big people, to say that I was not happy, I was still a child at that time." ”
"Got it." Zheng Xiu nodded: "You don't even have the qualifications to bet." ”
"Hmph."
The magician nodded: "Yes, she didn't." ”
However, no one expected that. At the end of that game, there was an 'accident'. ”
Zheng Xiu frowned: "Accident? ”
"One...... No, a ......, no, no, a ......" The magician held his chin in distress: "Sorry, I don't know how to describe that 'accident'. ”
Zheng Xiu guessed the ending along the direction of the story: "Tenth place? ”
The magician shook his head: "Not exactly. That accident gave birth to a ...... 'thing', a 'thing' that even our regimental commander was amazed by. ”
"It was that accident that completely changed the pattern of Yuanhai."
"Many Juggernauts have been 'removed', and our Nightmare Troupe has made a lot of money, becoming the most powerful force in that quadrant after that 'thing'."
"Delete?"
Zheng Xiu and the orange cat showed surprised expressions at the same time, the theory he had always accepted was that the master and the god would not die, but would only go back and eventually become part of the source. Look at the orange cats that have become miserable like that, and coincidence exists in other ways, how tenacious.
But the magician used the word "delete", which made Anne feel creepy.
She could not imagine what it was like to be "deleted".
"It's literal." The magician continued: "Since then, generations have changed. Without the restraint of the group headed by the 'Lord of Justice', becoming a master is as simple as becoming a god," the magician glanced down at the dog who was eating and drinking, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. Zheng Xiu and Anne followed the magician's gaze and suddenly understood. The three guys tacitly agreed, and the magician continued: "Since then, the pattern of the source sea has entered a new era. ”
Zheng Xiu: "You haven't said what that accidental 'thing' is. ”
The magician did not answer Zheng Xiu's question, but instead asked another question: "Do you think that the path to becoming a master is the right one?" ”
Zheng Xiu was stunned. He suddenly remembered the chaotic sounds he had heard when he was immersed in the sea of black sources, and those redundant and vast "collective consciousnesses" merged into his consciousness.
The magician asked this question, not to get Zheng Xiu to answer:
"The new generation, full of energy, they became masters too quickly, too quickly. It was incredibly fast, and they all thought they were the darlings of the new generation. ”
"So, they set out one after another to continue their search for the 'end' of the ...... that has been passed down for countless years."
"Legend has it that there is 'truth', 'all', 'one', 'everything'. It is ...... 'above the master'. ”
"Listen......" The magician closed his eyes, as if remembering the madness of that era: "What a seductive thing that is." ”
Goo-dong.
The orange cat on the side swallowed a mouthful of saliva, revealing a longing look.
Zheng Xiu looked at Anne in surprise, according to him, Anne is not such a motivated master.
"See?" Only then did the magician look at Zheng Xiu with a meaningful gaze: "The attraction of the 'end' to the 'master' is instinctive, irresistible, and irreversible. ”
"It's like there's something out there, catalyzing everything, accelerating everything, like it's ...... Looking for something. ”
Zheng Xiu felt a chill down his spine inexplicably, and the magician's description made Zheng Xiu feel ...... Strange delusions. The whole thing is very strange, whether it is the explosion of the master and the god, or the attraction of the "end" to the "master" - "raising Gu", a strange word suddenly popped up in Zheng Xiu's mind. He blurted out violently: "That 'thing' born by accident, he went to what you call the 'end'!" ”
Bang bang bang.
The magician smiled and clapped his hands with a look of relief. He had thought that explaining the long "history" to a god would take a lot of work. But Zheng Xiu quickly understood, which made the magician very happy.
"He went, but he ...... Fled. ”
"That's what happened next."
"Finally."
"There has never been a place where any Juggernaut has ever been able to find it, as if clear coordinates suddenly appeared, appearing at the 'end' of each Juggernaut's route."
"They...... They have reached the end. ”
Speaking of this, the magician's hand holding the teacup trembled slightly, and there were ripples in the cup.
