Chapter 16 A Hundred Years' Covenant
Lightning came one after another, cutting through the sky, and the sound of thunder rolled in. The black clouds in the air rolled down, and heaven and earth instantly merged into one. An unexpected rainstorm began to whip the world crazily.
I am independent on the top of Xianyu Mountain, allowing the wind to ravage myself.
Nameless, at that time, were you the same as me now, so cold, so helpless, and so painful?
"Nameless - how can you be so cruel? How can it be? ......”
"Tell me, what should I do so that my heart doesn't hurt so much? - You tell me -"
I cried in the wind and rain. How I wish he could hear it, but I was afraid that he could hear it. If he knew that I was like this now, he would be very sad. I can't make him sad anymore, but what can I do to control myself?
Nameless, I just want to see you in my dream, but why don't you want to appear in my dream? Are you afraid that I don't want to wake up in my dream?
But do you know that a dreamer can't dream for himself. I'm going to wake up in the end...
I miss him so much, and this missing is engraved in my bones all the time. My heart hurts all the time. I miss everything about him, but I can't see him at a glance.
I don't know how long I stood and cried. As if I had drained the last trace of strength in my body, I slowly fell on the top of Xianyu Mountain... Finally, I could fall asleep, but without the warmth in my dream, my whole body had been trembling...
"Grandpa Wen..." The first thing I saw when I woke up was Grandpa Wen.
He sat in front of the bed and looked at me thoughtfully.
"Grandpa Wen, I'm so afraid that I will leave like this without a name. I can't wait for me..." I looked at Grandpa Wen and cried bitterly.
Grandpa Wen looked at me sadly and said gently, "Yuer, I'm still alive. I can also feel the breath of your master. Although it is very weak, it still exists in the nameless city.
"Grandpa Wen, please, can you give me a dream? I just want to see him in my dream?" I looked at him with tears in my eyes.
Grandpa Wen looked at me, shook his head and whispered, "In this world, only your master and you can dream. Grandpa Wen can't help you. Only you can realize this dream by yourself.
"I can't dream for myself. If I could, I would have..." I choked.
It suddenly occurred to me that Grandpa Wen is not a god. What should I do? So I grabbed his hand tightly and asked eagerly, "Is there any way for me to enter the city?" I heard that there is an ancient wall-piercing technique..."
"Yuer, even if you can go back to the nameless city now, what can you do?" He said peacefully, "Besides, since the Protoss knew that your master's intention was to shut down the city, they had added a boundary, and any strange tricks were useless."
"Grandpa Wen... I just want to see him again." My heart began to ache again, and tears surged up.
"If you can't do anything, this look is worthless. Come on, drink this soup first and listen to Grandpa's words slowly.
As he spoke, he handed me a bowl of hot soup, and I drank it obediently.
"Grandpa means that you have to work hard and keep him around, not a dream."
"But I'm just a mortal." I looked at him blankly, "Why did the master close down the city?"
This city was sealed by the master. As a mortal, how can I break the boundary of God?
Grandpa Wen took the empty bowl in my hand and said slowly, "Your master's lockdown has his own reason. If you want to go to the city, there is nothing you can do. This Protoss, with countless disciples and descendants, has been standing between heaven and earth for more than tens of thousands of years. Among them, only eight gods and ancestors are created by heaven and earth and will never die, unless they themselves want to turn the divine body into invisible. The rest of the gods are cultivated by other creatures.
"Grandpa... How long will it take for a mortal to become a god?" I think I understand what Grandpa means. If I don't become a god, how can I save the nameless? So I have to become a god.
"It depends on the individual's creation. You and Wu Yan have been together for thousands of years. I'm afraid it has already passed on to his fairy spirit. Sooner or later, it will be a matter of becoming a god. Grandpa Wen looked at me and then said, "Grandpa promises that you will see the nameless in a hundred years."
At that time, I didn't understand why Grandpa Wen said a hundred years. I just felt that this hundred years was so long. How could I, a mortal, wait for a hundred years?
Grandpa Wen seemed to see through my mind and then said, "A hundred years, for a god, it's actually just an hour. When you practice the fairy root, you can practice longevity. If you go to the limit of mortal life, you can have more time to practice and achieve positive results.
"Elongation?" I looked at Grandpa Wen curiously.
He smiled and nodded and said, "I've been puzzled. How can your master fix you at seven years old with this world's food alone, and it must be a thousand years old. Later, I finally figured it out. Your master must have used the elongation skill.
"However, this longevity skill can only be practiced by yourself to maintain your life expectancy for a long time. The effect of others can only be temporary. That's why when your master leaves, you grow up by yourself.
Yes, if you can live a long life, you won't be afraid to wait for the nameless, I thought.
"It is said that this elongation can only be cultivated to a certain level to get the gift of the god Hengtian."
"God, Hengtian?" I have never heard the master say that there is such a god. In fact, the master rarely mentions things in the Protoss to me. When he took me in, he had already lived in seclusion in Xianyu Mountain, and only important things came forward.
"He is the head of the elders of the six gods. The major events in the Protoss are usually decided by six elders. If there is any disagreement, the emperor will be consulted, and his opinion is the final verdict.
"Grandpa, how can I see the god?" I asked eagerly.
I think that since he is the head of the elders of the Protos, if I can learn a powerful skill from him, it may help me.
Grandpa Wen didn't answer me immediately. He just took out a small gold box from his arms and slowly opened it. There is a transparent bead in it, and the light blue wanders freely in the bead, and the bead itself does not stop rotating, as if it were alive. There is also a white fog around the beads, which is very beautiful.
"This is your master's fantasy pearl. This Xuanzhu is the guardian pearl of every god elder. This mysterious pearl has gathered the spirit of heaven and earth for tens of thousands of years. The god has it, and his spiritual power increases sharply. If you are not a god, you can hide your breath and receive the courtesy of God. Grandpa Wen couldn't take his eyes off Xuanzhu and said slowly, "Yu Ji is a demon's reminder, but she can appear in a divine manner. Even your master can't detect her demonic spirit. Later, the elders of the Protoss found a mysterious pearl on Yuji. They all believed that it was your master's, and your master also recognized it.
"Then there was the 500-year divine punishment given to them by the Protoss. At that time, the Xuanzhu found on Yuji was also sealed in the temple of the Protoss. As far as I know, your master didn't get the Xuanzhu back when he came back. After you came back from the Unknown City, I felt your master's mysterious pearl. It turned out that it was sealed to your master's breath. Now your master's breath is very weak, and its original sharpness is exposed.
"The Xuanzhu on Yuji's body was not the master's." I said in surprise, "Then why didn't the master take out his Xuanzhu to explain it?"
"I don't think your master wants to start a war between the Protoss. This Xuanzhu is only available to the elders of the Protoss. No matter who it is, it will cause a big dispute. Or, your master also knows that Yu Ji is being used and doesn't want to embarrass her. And I didn't understand today why your master didn't get the Xuanzhu back. If he goes, it will prove to be his. If he doesn't go, the truth will be clarified one day.
"I think you should take care of his Xuanzhu." As Grandpa Wen spoke, he took out the Xuanzhu, held it tightly in the palm of his hand, and then put the beads in his hand on my hand. I was surprised to find that the original shining Xuanzhu had turned into a white ordinary bead.
"I changed its shape. It's not easy to attract the attention of others. Grandpa Wen looked at me and said.
"But I'm just a mortal, not a god, and the master didn't say he would leave it to me." I think such an important thing, as a mortal, how can I keep it?
"You must take this Xuanzhu with you. It can hide the demonic spirit of the fetus in your abdomen."
"The fetus in the womb?" I screamed, "You mean--"
"The day you came back, Grandpa found that you had been pregnant for almost two months." Grandpa Wen looked at me gently and said, "Grandpa wants to tell you when you are a little calm. This is an unknown child and a descendant of Wu Yan. Grandpa will try his best to protect him.
Do I have a child with Nameless? -
In a trance, I suddenly cried out happily. This is the best gift from God.
"This Xuanzhu can also enhance your spiritual power. If you want to see the god Hengtian, you can't practice immortality and skills without a certain fairy root. Grandpa Wen said earnestly.
I suddenly saw the silver thread on my wrist, which was brought from the nameless city and given by the master to Ruobing.
"Grandpa Wen, can you string this bead into the silver wire for me?"
Grandpa Wen nodded, and the silver thread seemed to understand my words and broke away from my wrist. Then Grandpa Wen carefully set a hanging ring on the beads. So, there is an extra bead on my wrist, hanging on the silver wire, which is very cute.
That night, I slept quietly. With expectations in my heart, I had the motivation to live.
