Chapter 31 Everyone Dies
"Dongdou?!" Su Changan was stunned when he heard this, he had heard the name of Dongdou mentioned by Beitongxuan. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
He once said that there are five fights in the world, and Dongdou is the most mysterious, hidden from the world, even the uncle of Yuheng knows very little about it.
Su Changan never imagined that this old gentleman who had taught in Changmen for most of his life was a person from Dongdou.
"Hmm. "The spirit of the cang. "Back then, the gods were suppressed in the shrine, the reincarnation of the heavenly way, divided into five buckets, the Beidou protected the common people, the Nandou supervised the temple, the Xidou guarded the shrine, and the Zhongdou buried the heroic soul, and my Dongdou lineage was, chasing and killing the remnants of these alien objects. ”
"Then what are they?" asked Su Changan, pointing to the black shadow that had been like a lost soul since the old man appeared.
"The catastrophe, the catastrophe of the common people, the catastrophe of all things, the catastrophe of the world. Cang Ling responded.
This was too subtle, and Su Changan could hear it in a fog.
"I've heard Candleshade mention that they've fought with these things, and they call them evil gods. But where did they come from, and why did they come from?" asked Su Changan.
"I don't know much about them, except that they come from another world outside the world, and they have the instinct to devour one world after another and destroy one heaven and earth after another. Cang Ling said with a frown.
"They are extremely powerful, and they have strange methods, and they can demagogue, assimilating mortals into their own kind, and thus strengthening themselves. All I did for so many years in Nagato was to capture him. ”
Su Changan thought about it, if Gu Ning's previous situation continued to be obsessed, it was likely that he would eventually turn into the same kind of evil gods as the old man said.
"He is a remnant of the last war with the Protoss, he was seriously injured, and he didn't dare to show up because of our pursuit, and he has been dormant in the Northland, and recently he finally couldn't hold it back and made a move, which was discovered by me. Cang Ling seemed to be afraid that Su Changan would not understand, and explained the ins and outs of the matter very patiently.
Su Changan couldn't help but be a little stunned, and he asked, "You have been in Changmen for decades, just to catch him?"
"Decades is not a long time. Cang Ling could understand the doubts in Su Chang'an's heart, and he said: "These evil gods are extremely cautious, this time it should be quite smooth, in the past, it often took me a hundred years to catch one, this guy has much less patience than those of his companions." ”
Cang Ling's words were extremely casual, but when they fell on Su Changan's ears, the young man's body couldn't help but be shocked, as if the old man's eyes were only a moment in the hundreds of years.
But can a person really live so long? Even if he is as strong as his uncle Zu Yuheng, he can't resist the erosion of time after all, and he is aging step by step.
"How long have you lived?" Su Changan was a little curious.
"For a long time. The old man responded, but his voice became a little muffled at that time, as if the long life was not something to boast about for him.
The old man's frankness made Su Changan speechless for a while.
"It's just that no matter how long we live, there are always evil gods waiting for us. The old man continued, his voice no longer low, but a little complaining.
Su Changan raised his head to look at Cang Ling at that time and asked, "Why are you telling me this?"
The old man was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly.
"Because you're an immortal. ”
"Immortal?" Su Changan was stunned, he had heard this word more than once, but he still didn't understand what an immortal was, it seemed that many things were related to this immortal dao, and he couldn't help asking, "What is an immortal?"
"You are the first immortal I have ever seen, I only know that you are an immortal, but I can't understand what an immortal is, I'm afraid that the answer is only for you to find yourself. Cang Ling said slowly, his face suddenly becoming serious at that time.
"But what I do know is that immortals have extraordinary powers, and we need them. ”
At this, a smile crossed his face again.
"How about it, are you interested in joining our Xidou, anyway, your Beidou lineage is now considered to exist in name only, it is better to worship my Xidou, at that time, you can also have the same life as me, or even longer, and we will do our best to help you achieve your immortal path." ”
Su Changan never thought that this Cangling's previous tirade was actually to throw an olive branch to him and invite him to get started.
But I have to admit that this is really an extremely tempting condition.
No one wants to die, Cang Ling promised Su Changan a long life, which is something that is difficult for every living being to refuse.
Su Changan's head lowered at that time.
He seemed to be seriously considering Cangling's promise.
The smile on Cang Ling's face when he saw this scene was even worse, in his opinion, Su Changan had no reason to refuse him, just like he couldn't refuse Xidou at the beginning, a long life span is always the highest pursuit of living beings.
And as he wished, Su Changan's head was raised after dozens of breaths, and he looked at Cang Ling, his lips slightly open.
Cang Ling seemed to have heard Su Changan say the words "I am willing".
But Su Changan often likes to do things that are different from ordinary people.
His head was bobbing from side to side, and he said, "I don't want to." ”
Cang Ling was stunned, he subconsciously thought that he had heard something wrong, after all, he couldn't find any reason for Su Changan to reject him.
"We don't restrict your freedom, you can do whatever you want, you can continue to fight for the Beidou lineage, and we can even provide a lot of help you can't think of. Cang Ling hurriedly said, trying to make Su Changan understand that joining Xidou was a choice that would benefit and harmless.
"I don't want to. But Su Changan shook his head again.
This time his voice was brighter and more resolute than before.
"Why?" the spirit was puzzled.
Su Changan looked directly at this star monarch who had lived for an unknown number of years at that time, and said word by word.
"I don't know what an immortal is, or what I'm going to be like in the end. ”
"But I'm human. ”
"It's people, and they're going to die. ”
"My friends, my family, the people I like, the people who like me, they're all going to die, in one year, one day. ”
"If they all die, and I am alone..."
This kind of life is actually more uncomfortable than death. ”
"So I don't want to. ”
Cang Ling was stunned, completely stunned.
He looked at the young man in front of him in shock, who was not even a fraction of his age, and couldn't say half a word for a long time.
It wasn't until after a few breaths that the corners of his mouth suddenly rose slightly.
"Yes, everyone dies. ”
He sighed like this, glanced at Su Changan deeply, but put his hand on the black shadow beside him.
"You're very interesting, and I hope that the next time we meet, you'll answer my invitation well.
As he spoke, his voice became farther and farther away, and the figure gradually faded away, and in a few moments, he completely disappeared in front of Su Changan's eyes with the black shadow.
And at that time, the night wind blew again, and the starlight fell.
Time that stands still begins to flow again.
