Volume 3: Star Tower Chapter 22: Heavenly Secret Diagram (VI)
"I'm so stupid, really..." Tang Zheng was about to completely transform into Xianglin Sao.
Because this time he really knew that his brain was stuck, and it was stuck quite badly.
If his brain wasn't stuck, how could he have overlooked so many details before?
His understanding of the stars has always been stuck on the Sun and Moon in his first life palace. Even though he knew he had arrived at the Eye of Heaven, he was still thinking about the Moon, the main star. He really thought he was just "passing by" here.
However, now that he thought about it carefully, he could clearly remember how ridiculous this "passing by" was!
How could he be passing by?
It is said that there is a cause for every effect. When the Lord of Tianji Star passed by, he was not just passing by. When he passed by here, he was not just passing by either.
Not to mention the distant past, after he entered the Su Shi Wen Xing Tower, Huangfu Xuanluo said that he was not born the son of the sun and should not have been the first one to see her.
At that time, he didn't think deeply about it. If he shouldn't see her first, then who should he see first?
Only now did he realize that it should be the Star Lord of Tianji!
The Sun and the Moon are not his natural stars, but the main star Tianji is!
He is a natural born blessed by the stars...
As for thinking further ahead, it is even more incredible.
If you think back to the battle between him and Lan Shaoze, you can think of many abnormalities - at that time, Tianji Star was in the battle, which allowed him to break through the two stars in the battle and kill Lan Shaoze!
At that time, his understanding of the Xingyao Continent was still superficial. Although he felt it was a bit strange, he did not think too much about it.
And now, he finally got the answer - he was born to be favored by the star of Tianji. When he was in a life-and-death crisis, it was the main star of Tianji that took the initiative to enter his life and allowed him to break through to the second star in the battle.
The blessing of the stars is the cause, and the breakthrough in the battle is the result. From the cause to the effect, everything is natural.
"Wait, I am the star-favored one of Tianji Star, then why is the natural main star in the first life palace not Tianji? Also, the star-favored one of Tianji Star should be like you, handsome and stylish, right? Why can't I be handsome for more than three seconds? Oh, right, God..."
"You should stop now. Among the ten people favored by Tianji Star, eight out of ten do not have Tianji in their first life palace!" The other person favored by Tianji Star heard his questions and interrupted him in a low voice with a frown, "Can you have some manners? You are not the only one asking questions about the stars here!"
He didn't think Tang Zheng really didn't know. He had already imagined a series of Tang Zheng's actions in his mind - pretending to be stupid, attracting the star master's attention, taking the opportunity to ask questions, and suppressing his time to ask questions...
It’s a pity that he really thought too much.
Another laugh came from the seemingly distant and near void: "It doesn't matter. You may not remember the answers you get from me, but you will definitely know what you want to know. Because time and experience will give you the best answers..."
A figure exactly the same as the Lord of Tianji Star in the mirage just now appeared in front of the two people.
Tang Zheng and another warrior took two steps closer and were about to speak when they heard the Star Master Tianji say calmly, "You are all very good."
Both of them said thank you.
Then, Du Xiaoyi said calmly: "Now, can you repeat all the questions I asked you?"
"Ah?" The warrior was stunned. He was well prepared and had prepared for many questions in advance. However, he never expected that the Star Lord of Tianji would ask them to repeat all the questions.
He looked back and found that he could no longer find the direction of the maze behind him.
They each took at least thirty steps, and there were a total of sixty or seventy questions. What would it mean to repeat them all?
However, he was still trying to recall everything when Tang Zheng spoke: "In the first step, you asked us how we got here. In the second step, you asked us what we want to get. In the third step, you asked us how we feel when we see the Heaven's Secret Map. In the fourth step, you asked us how it feels to be inside the Heaven's Secret Map. In the fifth step..."
Tang Zheng repeated all the questions almost in one breath.
It was not until the last few questions that the warrior could no longer stand and said, “The fifty-seventh question, you asked us what is the first thing we should do if we reach the Seventh Star. The fifty-eighth question, you asked us what we would most want to do if we reach the Ninth Star. The fifty-ninth question, you asked us what we would do if we picked up a demon baby. The sixtieth question, you asked us what we would do if someone we admired the most needed our death. The sixty-first question, you asked us what we would do if we suddenly lost all our power after becoming a star master... The last question, you asked us if we did not choose the Tianji star master, what star master we would choose... Huh.”
He let out a long breath, and finished repeating the last few questions he remembered.
He was still wondering if he would not get the chance to ask the stars from the Star Lord because his memory was not as good as Tang Zheng's, but he heard the Star Lord say, "Very good. Your questioning of the stars is over."
"Ah?" The warrior uttered the same exclamation again.
Already over?
What a joke, they haven’t even asked a single question!
He still had a lot of questions, including his conception of the All-Star Heavenly Secret Attraction Method, its feasibility, and the most suitable weapons and skills for the Heavenly Secret Star Favored Ones, etc.
Asking these things clearly is the right pace for Wenxing!
However, he had just met the Star Lord of Tianji, repeated the previous questions, and then, it ended like this!
Tang Zheng just stood there for a while, looked at the Star Lord of Heavenly Secrets again, and then turned and left...
"Star Lord, is there something we didn't do well? I can change it, I really can..." the warrior was still talking.
"No, you performed very well, better than I expected. Especially you. You are almost exactly the same as I was when I was young... naive, suspicious, hesitant, arrogant..." Tianji Star Lord answered him before his figure disappeared.
"Hehe, the more I listen to these words, the less they sound like good words..." If he remembered correctly, none of these words were good words.
"The path of the Tianji Star is a path that is destined to take detours. Moreover, you must take these detours by yourself. No one can help you. However, smart people cannot take too many detours. Only people like you who are naive, suspicious, hesitant, and arrogant will have the opportunity to take more detours in life. After taking more, more, and more detours, you will become an excellent Tianji Star Favorite..."
After saying this, the figure of Tianji Star Lord disappeared.
The warrior sat on the ground, not quite understanding what he was saying. He thought for a long time before catching up with Tang Zheng and asking, "Uh...did you understand what he said?"
"I understand." Tang Zheng spread his hands and said with a smile.
"Can you explain it to me?"
"Well, what he means is...brave boy, go and create a miracle!"
…
The road from a fool to the Lord of the Star of Heaven, if not a road of miracles, what is it?
Tang Zheng was actually quite unhappy about it - because, he was not so stupid sometimes! The reason why he took a detour was probably because he loved to commit suicide.
The Star Lord of Tianji did not give them direct advice on future star guidance and cultivation, but if Tang Zheng guessed correctly, he used sixty-two questions to almost show them his entire life.
It was precisely because of this guess that he was able to string more than sixty questions together and write them down without missing a single one.
The life of a star master...
If it weren't for the fact that their star followers were really powerful, this kind of conversation probably wouldn't have been triggered.
The other Star-Favored One probably hasn't realized how precious the question he heard is.
The sixty-two questions were all the difficulties and problems that Du Xiaoyi encountered in his life. He passed on the sixty-two strongest marks left in his life to Tang Zheng and the others, and made sure that they had memorized these sixty-two questions.
Even after leaving the Star-Seeking Tower, they would often think of these questions and ponder over the answers to them all the time.
As their strength improves and they gain different experiences, the answers to these questions may change...
If Tang Zheng were asked to write this book, it should probably be "Sixty-two Questions That Affect the Life of the Star Lord of Tianji".
The Star Lord of Tianji did not give them direct advice on how to guide the stars like Huangfu Xuanluo did. Instead, he used sixty-two questions in a more chicken soup-like way, allowing them to slowly decide for themselves in the changing times and experiences whether they really wanted to take the path that leads to the Star Lord of Tianji.
He didn't give any advice, just let them decide for themselves.
"Well, it seems that I thought too highly of the Star Tower. The Star Lord Tianji is much more stingy than Huangfu Xuanluo..." Tang Zheng obtained the star vein upgrade of the double star wall from Huangfu Xuanluo, and got very specific suggestions on attracting stars. Before leaving the Star Tower, he will also get a casting notebook from her. However, as a natural star-favored person, what he gained from the Star Lord Tianji was obviously much less, and it was not so specific and straightforward.
As for how useful these sixty-two questions are, it depends on his future life experiences and his own understanding. Whether his thinking about these questions can be useful or not, I am afraid that future opportunities will also be very important...
Tang Zheng repeated the sixty-two questions in his mind again. His eyes were already white. He sighed, "Is this the time to meet the Taiyin Star Lord?"
He met the Sun Star Lord because he took his things, and he met the Sky Mystery Star Lord because he was a natural born Sky Mystery Star Favorite. Neither of them took too much time, and both times he reached the Star Eye directly.
However, since he was not born as a Taiyin Star Blessed Person, and he did not have the Taiyin Star Lord's diary, he really did not know what he would face...
His vision went white for a short time, then immediately became clear again.
When he was about to take a look at his surroundings to determine what area he was in, his face changed drastically and he uttered, "Fuck!"
He had no way of determining where he was for a moment, because, in front of him, behind him, to his left, and to his right, there was only one thing: water!
Simply put, he is now in the middle of a vast ocean!
