Chapter 208: Heavenly Dao
After sitting up, he looked at Fu Niannian and them vigilantly, his eyes defensive and puzzled.
Fu Niannian pulled a stool over and sat on the edge of the bed.
"Tell me, how did you get so badly injured."
Candle didn't respond when she heard Fu Niannian's words, but just looked at her vigilantly.
He had an animal instinct, and everyone in the room was dangerous except for the policeman who brought him back.
Fu Niannian knocked on the arm of the chair, already a little impatient, "You should know what your own body looks like, right?" I didn't live long before I was brought back, and after tossing and turning on the road for so long, my injuries worsened. β
"When we came just now, you were already out of breath and out of breath, but you were on guard against us."
"After living for so many years, and almost turning from a snake to a Jiao, you won't only increase your cultivation but not your IQ, right?"
Candle opened her mouth, unable to refute what she had said.
He really didn't have long to live, she had a hunch of his own, and although he couldn't open his eyes and move just now, he was still awake, and he knew that he was on the verge of death.
He could also feel that someone had put something on his heart, probably a seal? Or is it something else? It's always good for his soul that is about to drift away.
He also knew that it was because someone saved him that he could wake up, so he didn't attack or try to escape in the first place.
Candle Ze's thoughts were racing, and he made a decision in just a moment, and said: "I don't know why I was seriously injured, when I was robbed by the snake demon and became a Jiao, I failed, and I was mentally prepared, so I wasn't too sad, I just wanted to save my life." β
"Unexpectedly, the day after my failed crossing, I noticed that my own face began to grow scales. The legs also turned into snake tails. β
"My first reaction was that I couldn't maintain my human form because of the failure of the tribulation, but there was no situation where I was half a demon and half a human in the past."
"I was trying to turn back into a full prototype, but I found that I couldn't, and I was still with scales on my face. The legs look like snakes' tails. β
"I found a deep mountain and old forest to hide in a panic, and after slowly recovering some demonic power, I was able to become a human again, but when I wanted to change back to the prototype, I still had scales on my face. The legs are snake-tailed. β
"I realized that something was wrong, went back to my own lair, and collected all kinds of ancient books from all over the world, and finally figured out why this situation was going on."
"It's because of the atavism, in ancient times, when the gods were in power, many gods had the characteristics of some beasts."
"I also have some of the characteristics of a beast now, just like some ancient gods, I was excited at first, I felt proud, I thought I was powerful, and this atavistic phenomenon appeared."
"I was thinking at the time, although I didn't cross the tribulation into a Jiao, but I have become an ancient god, which is much more successful than a tribulation."
Speaking of this, the corners of Candle Ze's lips hooked up a mocking smile, and his eyes were full of desolation, "I was really stupid and naΓ―ve at that time, and I kept looking for all kinds of ancient books, trying to step over the threshold of the tribulation and become a true god directly." β
"At that time, I always thought, although I have never seen the true God, I also have the characteristics of God, this is the embodiment of my extraordinary, this is the embodiment of the way of heaven favoring me."
"It wasn't until I saw more and more ancient books and looked deeper that I realized that something was wrong."
Candle raised his head suddenly, his eyes cold and a little fierce, "Where do you think the ancient gods have gone?" Or do they really exist? β
Fu Niannian was not disturbed by his eyes in the slightest, and she said lightly: "The ancient gods naturally exist, but they have already fallen, this is the law of the Heavenly Dao, and if it is too strong, it will be eliminated by the Heavenly Dao." β
"We humans and you demons inevitably have seven emotions and six desires, and even dead ghosts have seven emotions and six desires, but Heavenly Dao does not."
"He was like a cold and ruthless enforcer, looking at all living beings from God's point of view."
Candle smiled bitterly: "You are really not ordinary, I noticed when I woke up just now, you and the three people around you are not ordinary people." β
"It's only been a few days since I understood what you said."
"The ancient gods call for wind and rain, and they are in charge of the fate of this planet at every turn, which is not tolerated by the Heavenly Dao, in the eyes of the Heavenly Dao, they are just like the open, and the enforcers are in maintaining the delicate balance of the planet, so as the torrent of time moves forward, these ancient gods slowly disappear."
Fu Niannian stared at him and looked him up and down.
She didn't expect the atavistic snake demon in front of her to think of this, she straightened her face and asked, "Your serious injuries are related to those ancient gods, right?" β
Candle shuddered, sighed for a while, and raised his head to stare at her for a while.
Fu Niannian gave him a puzzled look, not understanding what he meant by staring at her.
The expression on Candle Ze's face was complicated, and he said after a while: "Since I guessed this, I have always felt that Tiandao is like an artificial robot, after setting the program, there is no preference, no exceptions, and only follows the program it runs. β
"But after seeing you, I realized I was wrong."
Fu Niannian raised his eyebrows and didn't answer.
Candle continued to say to himself, "Heavenly Dao still has preferences, and you and the three behind you are obviously the people favored by Heavenly Dao. β
"Hmm...... Or are you not human either? β
Fu Niannian sighed: "You're not a human, who are you scolding?" β
Candle: "......" After a while, he laughed lowly, and Fu Niannian also laughed.
Although her joke was not funny, Candle was clearly her patient.
Candle coughed with a smile and stopped for a while.
After stopping the cough, Candle straightened his expression and replied to Fu Niannian's previous question: "My serious injury is indeed related to the ancient gods. β
"Over the years, I've found some ways to temporarily suppress the atavism in me."
"Then I found out that these atavistic phenomena don't seem to grow in my body itself, but like parasitism."
Fu Niannian pondered for a moment and understood: "You said that the atavistic phenomenon is parasitic in your body like a parasite, absorbing your nutrients, but it will not be integrated with you. β
"It's waiting for the right moment to absorb all your nutrients and replace them."
Candle Ze's eyes were dark, and he nodded: "Hmm." β
Fu Niannian's eyes gradually sank, she turned her head to look at Lu Wu, Lu Wu's eyes were bright and dark, obviously, they all thought of those atavistic demons in the Three Regardless Zone.
If that's the case, then it's a big deal.
At this time, Candle said: "I tried to get rid of the 'atavistic phenomenon' parasitic in my body, but I didn't succeed, and I was seriously injured because of the backlash. β
