Tianwei Chapter 362: Departure (3)
Mr. Liao did not lie, he really left three days later.
The sky turned green that day. The long-awaited drizzle fell, and the leaves were blown by the breeze that arose for no reason.
This is a rare sight. Since the sky and earth began to reunite, there are no more clouds, and the four seasons seem to have lost their original function. Every day is sunny, and every day you can clearly see the sun rising from the east and setting in the west.
I don't really understand what kind of world Mr. Liao controls. I only know that when things change, there seems to be an invisible wave coming from somewhere and spreading to the entire world in an instant.
The world started... Liao Xian'er stood beside me, looking in a certain direction, motionless. That should be where Mr. Liao was.
Are you really determined not to go with him? I asked again.
She shook her head slightly: "It doesn't make sense to me whether to leave or stay. It's better to stay here than to go to a place I shouldn't go."
Her face was as peaceful as when I first saw her. It was obvious that she really didn't want to leave.
Once he leaves, he will never see him again... I said with emotion, not because of any friendship between me and Mr. Liao, but because he remembered Wei Qingcang and Gamu.
Liao Xian'er didn't say anything, just stood there quietly.
When that strange wave enveloped the entire world, it was retracted in an instant. In the southwest direction, a yellow-white light column suddenly lit up and shot up into the sky.
In the beam of light, I saw a huge cube.
It rotates slowly, and energy is constantly being drawn from all around and injected into it.
Is that the world? I murmured.
Liao Xianer hummed softly and said: The chessboard that Huangdi carried with him had the ability to transform the world and control decisions. When it was used to its full potential, it was no different from the world we live in. But...
She didn't finish and I didn't ask.
The cube in the beam of light kept spinning, floating upwards little by little. Before long, it touched the sky.
The yellow-white light collided with the transparent sky, making a loud rumbling sound.
This was a provocation, the wrath of the sky attracted the sea of thunder. The golden thunder descended, continuously striking the light column. However, the light column seemed to possess extraordinary power, and even the sea of thunder was helpless.
Huangdi’s chessboard? I whispered to myself and glanced at Liao Xianer. There was no strange expression on her face, as if she was watching a very ordinary thing.
Just then, a black spot appeared in the sky again.
This black spot had also appeared when Wei Qingcang and Gamu attacked the sky. The difference was that they left through the black spot that time, but this time, a ball of air descended from the black spot.
This ball of air was transparent and light. It floated around, surrounding the yellow-white light column and penetrating into it.
It can resist the power of the sea of thunder, but cannot stop this ball of clear air.
because……
As I watched, the cube began to disintegrate. From one corner to another, from one face to another. In just a few minutes, most of the cube had disintegrated.
I know I was right.
Is that why you don't want to leave with them? I asked quietly.
Liao Xian'er remained silent and did not answer.
I don't think you want him to die. I said: But why didn't you tell him? I don't understand, but I'm curious.
You didn't say it either, she said.
I am different from you. For a while, I wanted to kill him with my own hands. Even cutting him into pieces could not relieve my hatred. But you are different. The relationship between you two is closer.
He can't be considered a good person, so this ending might be the best. Liao Xian'er said softly: Just as you wish.
I looked at her for a long time, until the cube completely disintegrated, turned into the same pure air, and disappeared into the void. The sky was bright again, the rain stopped falling, and the leaves stopped shaking.
Mr. Liao was wrong. The world in his hands did have the power to challenge the heavens. However, he didn't know who gave him this power.
No matter how powerful Huangdi was, he was still a god under heaven. He created another . Even though it was independent of heaven and earth, it was still controlled by heaven and earth. Because everything in the two worlds was exactly the same.
So he died, at the moment when he had the greatest hope of achieving immortality.
I always thought that Liao Xian'er didn't want to leave with him because she was heartbroken. But it wasn't until that moment that I realized that heartbreak was only one of the reasons.
From what she told me, I could tell that she had anticipated Mr. Liao's fate, but she never opened her mouth to warn him.
Why?
She never told me the answer.
I don't understand. She is like Mr. Liao's granddaughter. Although they used to be in a relationship of use, they still have feelings for each other. Why did Mr. Liao remain silent for so long in front of her when he left for the last time? Wasn't it because he was reluctant to let her go?
Even though desire overcomes family affection, the reluctance is real.
No one could have imagined that Liao Xianer would do this, and she should have no reason to do so.
When the cube completely disappeared, Liao Xianer lowered her head slightly and turned around to walk away. I looked at her back, as if I was looking at a cloud of fog.
From the beginning to the end, this woman has existed with mysteries that I cannot solve. Even now, she is still shrouded in mystery.
I glanced back at where the cube disappeared and couldn't help but sigh.
He is indeed not a good person, he just wants to live longer...
In the following weeks, nothing special happened. But these weeks made me sure that Tao Tiansong and Frog Girl had played their role.
The energy between heaven and earth is constantly decreasing. Although the magnitude is still not large, it has increased more than ten times compared to what Hanran did before.
I took some time to look at the Blue Springs, and there was very little Five Elements energy left that could erode this place.
However, although the problem of Biluo Huangquan has been solved , the overlap of heaven and earth continues. We have solved one problem, but not the root cause. With the current height of Biluo Huangquan, if we want to support heaven and earth again, we must wait until the sky is only about 2,000 to 3,000 meters away from us. This distance is unbearable for ordinary people, not to mention practitioners.
The enormous pressure is enough to kill more than 99% of living things in the world.
The stronger the creature, the longer it can live, and the longer it lives, the stronger it becomes. But the fear that accompanies them will last longer than that of others.
The powerful force can no longer bring them any pleasure.
Only fear...
Sitting on the platform at the top of the mountain, I lay flat on my back and looked up at the sky.
Mr. Jiao lay beside me, sometimes looking up at the sky, sometimes fiddling with his hair, wrapping it around his hands, and then letting out a clear and cheerful laugh.
A day without wind is quiet, but not refreshing.
The sound of rustling footsteps came from not far away.
She sat down next to me, hugging her legs and curling up. I looked at her back, which was arched like a shrimp, and couldn't help but sigh.
Can we survive? She rested her face on her arms and tilted her head to look at me.
I smiled and said: Of course.
She snorted, and after a while, she drooped her eyelids again and asked softly: Will they come back?
I don’t know whether he was asking about Wei Qingcang and Gamu, or Tao Tiansong and Wa Mei, but no matter who it was, I have only one answer: I will definitely come back.
real?
real.
She let out a soft "ah" as if she was exhaling, and then lay on her back next to me.
It's really uncomfortable, don't you think there are too many stones? she asked.
It’s a bit too much, but it feels better this way. At least, it doesn’t make me think that what is happening now is a dream.
She chuckled and said: Your mouth is becoming more and more talkative.
Dad? Mr. Jiao suddenly pulled my hair.
Hmm? What's wrong? I raised my eyelids to look at her.
She pointed down the mountain and said: Someone is coming.
Oh? I sat up. Who else would come at this time? Everyone who should have come had left.
A few minutes later, two young men in ancient costumes with mountains and rivers painted on their clothes walked up the mountain. They looked at me, then at Fanran, and asked: "Excuse me, is this the Five Elements Taoist Temple?"
Um, who are you? I looked at them curiously.
We are from Jiuqiu, a young man answered.
Jiuqiu? I was a little surprised, and even Fanran stood up in amazement.
We have no ill intentions. We are here this time for... The young man who spoke raised his hand and pointed to the sky.
Do you have any solution?
The two young men nodded at the same time and said: Yes!
Suddenly, go and call the Taoist priest. I told him.
She turned around and left without hesitation. Jiao Ye hid behind me, holding onto his clothes, timidly poking out half of his head, and looking at the two Jiuqiu disciples with curious eyes.
Are you two the only ones here? I looked at the stairs, but no one else had come up.
Jiuqiu, there are only two of us left. A young man answered, and he didn't sound sad or upset when he spoke, as if what he said was very normal. But I don't think it's normal. There are only two people left in Jiuqiu?
Think about it, when the emperor was moved, several of them had died, and there were still two left, which was already considered amazing. Wudian and Basuo, the two families together are not as many as Jiuqiu's family.
The old Taoist came quickly. He looked at the two young men and waited for them to bow before asking: "Tell me what you have planned."
The two young men looked at each other, and the one on the left turned around and said: This method was actually left by our parents. They said that if the imperial platform fails to suppress the rebellion, they will come here to find you. Here is the letter they left behind, you can take a look.
The young man handed me a letter. I took it, opened it and read it, and was immediately surprised.
The method described in the letter was so amazing that it was simply out of this world. I handed the letter to the Taoist priest, and Fanran also curiously leaned over to take a look.
The old Taoist read it very carefully, as if he was reviewing each word one by one.
Do you think this method is feasible? He turned his eyes away from the letter.
I believe them, the two young men said at the same time.
This kind of answer is equivalent to no answer.
Why didn't you come earlier? asked the Taoist priest.
Because we need to make the final confirmation, the preparations have been completed. A young man said: But we still need time.
Time... the old Taoist repeated, his head lowered slightly, and his gaze returned to the letter.
I know he is thinking. After reading the letter, Fan Ran covered her mouth with a look of surprise. She walked back to me and whispered: Can this be done?
Before I could answer, I heard the old Taoist say in a decisive tone: I will fight for time!
