Chapter 452: The Origin of Lao Shi
Inside the palace.
Thunder flashed on the Thunder Sword, and the tip of the sword was pointing at the middle-aged man in front of him.
But no matter how brightly the thunder on the Thunder Sword shone, it could not advance even a bit.
"I'm sorry to make you laugh."
The middle-aged man looked at Lin Ye, and the corner of Lin Ye's mouth twitched. It seemed that this man and Xiao Lei were old acquaintances.
"Ahem, it's actually not a big deal. When I was going through the tribulation, the lightning that I attracted happened to hit this little guy."
Buzz!
The middle-aged man's words were very light, but they caused a huge reaction in the Thunder Sword, and the sword body began to tremble.
The corner of Lin Ye's mouth twitched. No wonder Xiao Lei was so excited.
This is meeting a great enemy.
Xiao Lei's true form is lightning-struck wood. Although lightning-struck wood is an excellent material for refining weapons, for the tree itself, becoming lightning-struck wood is an unlucky thing.
Of all things in this world, who would like to be struck by lightning?
"As a lightning-struck wood, it was able to give birth to a spirit, which means that before it was struck by lightning, it was almost about to give birth to intelligence. Before the spirits of plants and trees give birth to intelligence, the thing they fear most is thunder."
Lao Shi's voice sounded in Lin Ye's ears at the right time, explaining to Lin Ye why Xiao Lei was so excited.
This vengeance is no less than a vengeance of life and death.
It is normal for enemies to be jealous of each other when they meet.
"I guess this Thunder Sword sensed the enemy's aura when it was in Wuliang Mountain, so it came out on its own initiative."
Lin Ye agreed with Lao Shi's judgment. This was the only possible explanation for Xiao Lei's excitement.
"Senior, after all, Xiao Lei almost lost his life. If it were me, I would probably be even more excited than this."
When Lei Jian heard Lin Ye's words, the sword made a slight sound, as if agreeing with Lin Ye.
"That's the truth. How about this... I let you stab me with the sword?" The middle-aged man pondered and said, "I'm afraid it's useless. Even if you stab me with the sword, it won't cause any harm to me."
Lin Ye said tentatively: "Senior, there is an established rule among our people that if you cause harm to others, you can try to compensate them and make up for the harm."
"compensate?"
The middle-aged man looked at Lin Ye meaningfully, and then said: "Well, I attracted that thunder tribulation in order to capture the first thunder in the world. Now this thunder is useless to me, so I will compensate you."
The middle-aged man grabbed in the air, and a golden lightning appeared in his palm.
The golden lightning was very short, but the moment it appeared, the purple thunder that filled the palace all quieted down, as if it had surrendered to a king.
"This thunderbolt is a compensation for you, little guy."
With a light flick of the finger, the golden lightning shot towards the Thunder Sword, but the Thunder Sword turned its body and did not want to receive it.
Seeing this scene, Lin Ye quickly persuaded him, "Xiao Lei, don't make trouble. Senior didn't mean it at the beginning. Now that senior has apologized and compensated you, we should accept this apology."
Just kidding, he doesn't know this person's identity, but he is definitely an extremely powerful existence. Didn't he hear that this is the first thunder in the world?
Anything that comes first is a good thing.
And what this person can produce is definitely not an ordinary thing.
"Senior, Xiao Lei has a rather straightforward personality. I will be fine after some persuasion." Lin Ye turned to the middle-aged man and said.
"Since we've agreed to give it away, we won't take it back." The middle-aged man seemed to know what Lin Ye was worried about and said lightly.
"That's right. As a senior, I can't take my words back once they're spoken." Lin Ye flattered.
“Once something is said, it cannot be taken back.” The middle-aged man paused for a moment, and then he understood what Lin Ye meant.
"That's a very fitting description. Let's put aside the little guy's matter and talk about you..."
"Me?" Lin Ye rubbed the tip of his nose. "I heard from the people of Zhenqing Sect that I might be the destined one, so I came in."
"From the conditions, you have indeed met the conditions of the promised person, but to be honest, I don't really want to pass on this law to you."
The middle-aged man looked somewhat helpless. Lin Ye was still fine, but Lao Shi couldn't sit still anymore.
"Boy, you are very good at licking, hurry up and lick him. This is the law of Tao, you must not lose it."
Lin Ye's mouth twitched, and before he could say anything, the middle-aged man suddenly grabbed in the air with his right hand. Lin Ye felt a heat in his chest, and the next moment Old Stone flew out of his chest and landed on the middle-aged man.
"senior!"
Seeing Lao Shi fall into the hands of the middle-aged man, Lin Ye looked a little anxious and explained: "This is my friend."
"The bearer of the Tao is born to be able to bear the trace of the Tao rhyme I left behind."
The middle-aged man did not respond to Lin Ye, but looked at Lao Shi with a smile on his lips.
"You...you are the Dao Ancestor?"
Lao Shi's voice was trembling, but Lin Ye's eyes narrowed. The message revealed by Lao Shi's words was quite big.
Not only the identity of the middle-aged man, but also the origin of Lao Shi.
"Someone does call me that." The middle-aged man admitted it.
"You... you are really the Taoist Ancestor." Lao Shi's voice became excited: "You left a trace of Tao rhyme, and later someone obtained this trace of Tao rhyme and used it to deduce the Xiantian Bagua, and it was deduced on me at that time."
Lao Shi took the initiative to tell Lin Ye his origins, and only then did Lin Ye realize that he had been deceived by Lao Shi.
The mountain god of Helan Mountain has another identity: Fuxi!
The founder of Xiantian Bagua!
Lao Shi is indeed a stone.
According to Lao Shi, after Fuxi gave guidance to the human race, he returned to Helan Mountain and concentrated on studying the Taoist rhymes left by the Taoist ancestor.
Later, Fuxi created the Eight Trigrams based on this trace of Taoism. And because Fuxi deduced the Eight Trigrams from Lao Shi at that time, this trace of Taoism also fell on Lao Shi.
Because of this innate Taoist rhyme, Lao Shi gained intelligence.
In other words, Lao Shi was transformed from this wisp of Taoist rhyme, and Daozu could be said to be Lao Shi's father in a sense. Without Daozu's Taoist rhyme, there would be no Lao Shi.
And Fuxi...
In a sense, she is Lao Shi's mother.
Thinking of this, Lin Ye's expression became strange.
"Daozu, this kid is the most suitable person to inherit the laws of Tao. Only he can teleport back and forth between the two worlds. Now that the Tao sect is declining, we urgently need someone to go back and revive it."
Lin Ye was somewhat moved after hearing what Lao Shi said. Although Lao Shi was a bit sharp-tongued, he was still very reliable at critical moments.
Daozu smiled and said calmly: "Let him go back. What he is going to revitalize is Taoism, Buddhism, or the underworld."
