Chapter 586 Guangbai's Trial
"Gurgle, gurgle..."
In the steaming pot, the dried meat that had been cooked for a long time began to emit an enticing aroma.
Guangbai poked it with chopsticks and felt it was about cooked.
Outside, the sound of the waterfall passed through the long and winding canyon, and there was a vast and dull sound.
If there were no war, it would be a nice place.
Is this the last test, or maybe not just the last one?
It doesn’t matter. Guangbai feels that he has gotten used to it.
He had lived through a decadent era filled with luxury and debauchery, and had also chewed on ice chips during the dark years of frost and desolation.
That is all worth recalling - because for a much longer period of time, he spent his life as an ordinary mortal.
Fortunately, when a dream ends.
The memories that were once extremely clear will become extremely blurry.
Clearly, just a moment ago, I was overwhelmed with grief.
The next moment, tears began to flow from his confused face.
The test from the elders is indeed not something that ordinary people can endure or pass.
Guangbai doesn't think he is so special.
During his years as a rebel general, he came into contact with many beings of great power and extraordinary talents.
Some of them are extremely brave and can sweep across the battlefield with their physical strength.
Some have wings under their ribs, which allow them to cross mountains and rivers as if they were walking on flat ground.
Compared to them, Guangbai really didn't think that the tricks he mastered were anything special.
Can make a few buns and a few glasses of light wine.
It's okay for Liao to provide some supplies, but it's not presentable after all.
A few days ago, after the test of that small town, Guangbai’s “magic tricks” became much stronger.
Now, it's time to make some more subtle changes.
Perhaps, the elderly need an all-purpose cooking bag that they can carry with them at all times?
Guangbai turned the coarse salt next to him into fine, snow-like salt, and also added some chili powder, peppercorns and other things.
He looked at the rising fog outside and felt a little emotional.
Who would have thought that such a real world is actually just an illusion?
Or maybe, it wasn't just a dream?
Guangbai had given up trying to guess the elder's power; he only felt that his vision was being arbitrarily expanded time and time again.
Moreover, he never treated everything frivolously, thinking that this might be a dream.
A gentleman is cautious when he is alone, is this roughly the case?
I gradually learned some Guangbai of traditional oriental culture and thought silently.
According to his judgment, tomorrow will be an important stage that will determine the direction of the entire battle.
As expected, they will win...
This is an overwhelming trend that emerges after taking into account many factors.
In the ancient Eastern tradition, there is a special term to explain it:
“The general trend”
Guangbai cut some meat with a knife and spread a thin layer of sauce on it.
Everything was going so smoothly that it seemed unreal.
Although it did take him some years to find the central elements and accumulate strength in this chaotic world.
But elders never like repetition.
Guangbai is very clear about this.
Therefore, this inevitably made him feel a little uneasy and anxious.
This is the nature of intelligent life, and Guangbai does not hate this tension.
When facing someone like an elder, any emotion is normal.
Guangbai looked up at the dark sky outside. He really couldn't think of any other way except to wipe out the rebel army and the corrupt ruling class and then establish a relatively clear and fair order.
What else does this chaotic world need?
Guangbai was puzzled. He stared at the twinkling stars in the sky and fell into deep thought...
…
…
"boom!!!"
The fierce fire evaporated all the water vapor in the western swamp.
And when those burning tongues of fire licked the black mucus deep in the swamp.
Suddenly, a violent explosion occurred!
Guangbai was careless and was knocked to the ground by the sudden explosion.
He got up from the ground, covered in dust and dirt, and only had time to brush off the ashes in front of him.
He looked back worriedly:
Sure enough, many of the already exhausted farmers and soldiers fell to the ground.
Some unlucky ones happened to fall on the nearby gravel, and soon there were some blood marks on their heads.
It was a northwest wind at that time, and there was a certain temperature in the air that made people feel restless.
Guangbai knew that they still needed to run at least ten kilometers before they could temporarily escape danger.
But when Guangbai looked at the sky that was almost covered by thick smoke, he rarely felt a sense of powerlessness.
This is the insignificance of the individual in the face of a disaster that involves the entire world.
NMD……
Guangbai looked at the smoke and clouds above his head and uttered a rare curse.
The war had been forced to end.
After all, there is no point in going on.
When the stars in the sky fell to the earth like streaks of fire.
The hideousness and viciousness of all creatures are not a very powerful response.
Guangbai couldn't imagine how many people could survive in this world under such an impact.
Even more, how can those people who did not die in the first impact survive in such a world full of fire and smoke?
Hunger, thirst, heat...
This is purgatory...
This is more important than the purification and reshaping of the earthly order.
So, this is what you want to teach me?
Guangbai walked forward silently, leading the people behind him who were struggling again.
He heard suppressed crying and occasional wailing, which made the atmosphere of the entire team fall into depression again.
Guangbai shook his head vigorously and stopped thinking about the test.
Maybe, he missed a lot of clues.
But now, the most important thing is to bring these people who have entrusted their lives to him to a safe place.
Guangbai thought so.
Finally, when night gradually fell.
They crossed a rocky area and came to a small lake formed by groundwater.
The rocky area is wide enough to form a natural isolation zone, while the small lake can barely meet the basic conditions for these people's daily survival.
Although it is not a long-term solution, at least we are out of danger.
When everything was settled, someone finally couldn't suppress his emotions anymore.
They cried bitterly for the cruel fate and the confusion about the future.
Guangbai sat aside in silence.
At this time, he felt someone pushing him gently from behind.
Guangbai turned around and saw a little face covered in dust.
She stretched out her hand, where there was a small gray bag.
Guangbai took it without understanding what it meant and opened the bag.
The somewhat shriveled seeds inside were lying there quietly...
"Captain, don't be sad. Mom said we still have seeds..."
The little girl said timidly.
An indescribable emotion suddenly surged in Guangbai 's heart.
And at this moment, everything around suddenly stopped.
Guangbai felt his vision suddenly stretched. He saw the mountains and rivers with deep veins under the night sky, and he saw countless lands still glowing with fire.
He saw the starry sky, the universe, and even the more distant world...
And in that ultimately indescribable grand perspective, he saw countless burning worlds...
The next moment, Guangbai found himself in a dark place.
The only bright spot was a golden round object floating there.
It looked like a hoop woven from some kind of golden vine...
