Tianwei Chapter 290 Five Classics (7)
Can a guess that even you think is outrageous be true?
If this guess was made by someone else, I might say it was nonsense. But based on my past experiences and my understanding of various ancient secrets and rumors, this guess has some basis for validity.
The origin of myths cannot be traced. Scientists say that a long, long time ago, when all our historical records no longer exist, there was another civilization. But later, this civilization was destroyed.
Mythologists believe that before our world began to flourish, there was a mythological civilization that was connected to modern civilization, but was completely severed.
There was a vacuum period in ancient history.
There are no records, no hearsay, only unverified myths.
And thousands of years ago , mythology ended and legends of immortals and gods began to emerge.
From then on, the Three Sovereigns became just myths, while the Five Emperors appeared at the right time .
I believe that the period of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors was actually a transitional period, a period from mythology to immortality and gods...
Because Grandpa Shi said that the previous generation of Basuo was destroyed about thousands of years ago.
What a coincidence.
So I guess that the disaster caused by the previous generation of Basuo may have ended the myth.
This speculation is indeed unbelievable, but if something big happened thousands of years ago, what else could it be besides this?
Regardless of whether others believe it or not, at least I don’t believe that there was another mythological world at that time.
Therefore, the end of the myth and the destruction of the Eight Ropes inheritance should be linked together.
But nowadays, even gods and immortals no longer appear, and technological civilization has taken the dominant position.
But the stone beasts that have been discovered one after another and the Kunlun Mountain that has been desolate for who knows when are all hinting at the truth. Perhaps, the disaster thousands of years ago has continued to affect us today...
Although there are speculations in my heart, no one knows what happened at that time. If there is anyone in this world who knows, I think it is only Sanfen and Jiuqiu.
According to Grandpa Shi, there has never been any mistake between the two families and the tradition has been passed down to this day.
Strictly speaking, the oldest tradition is the Three Tombs and Nine Hills.
Although my anger gradually subsided due to my calmness, and although doubts occupied a small part of my heart, I still couldn't help but say: Even if we can't conflict with Wudian, we should find a way to keep Laodao. If he can really be resurrected, why did Wudian take him away?
For Wudian, the Five Elements Meridian is the heart, representing the most essential part of them. Although the boy is not very good at learning, he is still a member of the Five Elements Meridian. Since Wudian wants to take back everything, he naturally cannot leave him behind. Grandpa Shi said.
What do you mean? Why do I feel like you are going to eat me?
I don’t know the details, the Five Classics have not been published for thousands of years, and what I know is from your grandfather. Grandpa Shi said.
Is there really no other way? I asked with my last hope.
Grandpa Shi did not deny it, he just shook his head and said he didn't know.
But even he said he didn't know, who else could do it? The little beauty was also stunned by what she heard. Her face was not very good and her eyes were red. We didn't avoid her when we talked. It's better to throw it out early than to hide it.
I couldn't help but sigh. I had obtained the Book of Life and Death and was waiting for Gamu to deliver the Book of Goodness and the Mirror of Sins. But now, all my efforts have failed!
How come this damn Five Classics came so quickly?
Did he know that if he arrived too late, the Taoist priest would be resurrected?
Once the Taoist priest is resurrected, it proves that the Five Elements Meridian is still alive, and Wu Dian will have to keep his head down and wait. From this point of view, maybe he really did it on purpose!
I looked up at the little beauty, she was silent but tears were about to fall. I wanted to ask her, if the Five Elements Meridian and the old Taoist no longer existed, what would you do?
But I also feel that asking her this question is a bit cruel.
Her mother was killed, her father disappeared, and all the brothers and sisters who grew up with her were gone. Now, if even the old Taoist and the Five Elements Meridian disappeared, she would be alone.
Looking at her is like seeing my future self.
If Grandpa Shi leaves one day, who will be by my side?
Mr. Jiao?
It will one day ascend to heaven or become a dragon. This is an irreversible future. Even if it can be reversed, I cannot do that because of my own selfishness.
Wu Dian's speed in retrieving the Five Elements Meridians was not fast. We sat outside the Taoist temple for a long time. It had been dark for several hours, but there was still no movement in the house.
It's strange that the house turned into a wilderness, but the noise was so loud that it couldn't be heard outside the house.
Every time I looked back, I felt my heart sink even more, but after a while, I couldn’t help but want to look again.
Maybe I will never see him again.
The little beauty went from being stunned to feeling sad, and finally went to the kitchen silently to get a lot of meat. She held the meat, not caring about the greasy marks, and quietly squatted on the ground to feed Jiao Ye a piece of meat.
Seeing her so quiet, I felt sad. She started to act like she did a few months ago when she heard that her only life vein had been destroyed. Her eyes were lifeless and she had no hope for the future. If the old Taoist priest hadn't been there, she would have committed suicide long ago.
And now... I couldn't help but tremble in my heart, and immediately made up my mind to keep an eye on her to avoid any accidents.
If the old Taoist priest is gone, and the little beauty is gone, I...
well……
The only thing that made people feel relieved was that Jiao Ye's condition had improved a lot. After waking up, its body kept making bulging and crisp sounds, but its size was strangely shrinking.
What’s strange is that it seemed to be unaware of anything and was only focused on eating meat.
Grandpa Shi went over to check it out and said that there was no big problem. The changes in the body showed that the power of the elixir was being absorbed continuously, and judging by the speed, it would not take too long for the changes to end. If everything goes well, at least it can recover to the state before the injury. If it is lucky, it may be able to strengthen the power of the immortal power or the dragon bone. By then , I don't need to help it make a choice, it will know how to practice.
But whether he becomes an immortal or a dragon depends on the struggle between immortal power and dragon bones.
To put it simply, whoever absorbs more elixir power wins.
I don’t have any thoughts in my mind, as long as it is fine, anything is fine.
After feeding Mr. Jiao a pot of meat, the little beauty stood up and walked towards the kitchen. Seeing her pale face and weak state, I sighed, stood up and walked with her.
The beautiful girl didn't say anything and was very quiet. Even when she entered the kitchen, she just put the remaining meat into a bowl, sprinkled some salt on it and took it out.
The calmer she is, the more uncertain I feel. If the Taoist priest cannot be resurrected, I will definitely feel guilty. So no matter what, I can't let her get into trouble again.
After feeding Mr. Jiao again, it was already late at night. The stars were twinkling and the beauty of the night sky was hard to describe.
The little beauty put the grease-covered basin aside and sat next to me. I was thinking whether to give her something to eat, but I suddenly felt a weight on my shoulder. It turned out that she leaned her head towards me.
I turned my head slightly and saw her leaning on my shoulder, hugging her legs with both hands, curled up. She should be looking in the direction of Jiao Ye, but I'm not sure if she was looking at Jiao Ye.
I always felt a little awkward with Grandpa Shi around, but I was too embarrassed to push her away.
For a man, holding a soft jade in his arms is the best thing. But for me, the little beauty is not soft jade, but Lin Daiyu, who must be carefully cared for.
You said... The soft voice of the little beauty came into my ears. This was not the first time I heard her speak in such a soft tone.
Will we ever see him again? she asked.
This is not the first time I have heard this question, nor is it the first time I have thought about it, but until now, I still don’t know how to answer it.
Continuous silence, as if only silence is the best answer.
The little beauty didn't ask any more questions, because she knew the answer. Perhaps she felt that my thin shoulders were not very comfortable to lean on, so she subconsciously moved her head and asked again after a while: Did you see him in the underworld?
I nodded and said, "I see."
Is he okay there?
Fortunately... the transparent shadow with only an outline left appeared in my mind. Maybe, that's also good?
That’s good… The beautiful girl nodded and stopped talking.
You... I thought of the previous question again, but I could only say one word and couldn't continue.
The little beauty didn't ask me what I wanted to say. She was as quiet as a child. At that moment, I felt that I might be her only support in this world. If the old Taoist priest is really gone, she and I...
If the two of us could be together, maybe the old Taoist would feel more at ease.
I could only see her head from the corner of my eye, which was all black and hair. But in my heart, I suddenly had an urge to help her tidy up her messy hair.
Just as I was thinking whether I should do this, a bright light suddenly flashed behind me. The light was so dazzling and so fast that before I could react, it flashed past me and disappeared into the dark night sky.
I was startled and quickly pulled the beautiful girl up and asked: What happened?
At this time, my mother walked out of the Taoist temple. She didn't even look at me, but just nodded slightly to Grandpa Shi and said, "Uncle Shi, I'm leaving too, take care of yourself."
As long as you don't do anything that is outrageous to both humans and gods, I am healthy and can live a long time. Grandpa Shi didn't have anything good to say.
The mother didn't care. She nodded as a greeting, then pointed her finger and a green portal appeared. She stepped into it without any reluctance.
As I watched the door gradually close and disappear, my heart began to feel depressed again.
Well, it's over here, Grandpa Shi said suddenly.
Hmm? I was slightly startled, then I immediately understood that he was talking about the Five Elements Pulse.
At this moment, I felt something light on my hand, and when I turned around, I saw the beautiful girl had already rushed into the Taoist temple. A few seconds after she entered the room where the old Taoist's body was originally placed, I heard crying.
Looking around, the Taoist temple that was destroyed by thunder and had not yet been repaired suddenly looked extremely desolate under the night sky. Like a lonely grave in the wilderness, no one cares about it...
