Chapter 844: Memories of Lingkongsou
After complimenting each other, Wu Yi immediately asked: "The immortal said that he is here to wait for the destined person. Do you know what the purpose of this trip is?" At this point, Wu Yi doesn't care whether he is exposed or not. Yuan Rongyi can catch up. This place has proven its failure.
In comparison, Yuan Rongyi, who came here partly out of voluntary curiosity and partly out of helplessness, basically didn't speak, but his ears were straight.
The old man Lingkong picked up the tea cup and took a sip, and said calmly: "Do you know the old man's true identity?"
Wu Yi looked at Ling Kongsou again and shook his head.
"Why don't guests take a closer look?" Lingkong said.
Wu Yi had no choice but to apologize for being rude, and used his Nether Dharma Eyes to look at Lingkong Old Man intently. Although he still didn't find the opponent's roots, he discovered another strange thing, that is, Lingkong Old Man's body was almost lifeless and full of death energy. .
Wu Yi came to a result that surprised him. The real Lingkong Old Man was probably dead long ago. What was left here was an afterimage left behind who knows how many years ago. However, he was just an afterimage. Being able to maintain such intelligence, one can imagine the strength he had during his lifetime.
Seeing the surprise on Wu Yi's face, Lingkong said: "It seems that the guest has understood!"
Yuan Rongyi listened to the two of them playing riddles, and not to be outdone, she looked at the old man Lingkong, but she had not practiced eye skills, so she could not detect any abnormalities.
Lingkong said: "In the past, there was a shocking battle here. The vast inner lake was like the sea. After the battle, it turned into this scene. You are here to find the remaining things, right?"
"This battle took place thousands of years ago. I don't know how many great powers passed through this place. Even if there are any relics of the gods, they have been picked up by others." Yuan Rongyi, who knew a lot, retorted.
Ling Kongsou didn't refute, but kept his indifferent expression. He changed the topic and said, "Can I tell you a story?"
In fact, in front of such powerful people as Ling Kongsou, the attitudes of Wu Yi and Yuan Rongyi are no longer important. He continued: "A long, long time ago, even I have forgotten whether it was ten thousand years ago or a calamity ago. , or several calamities.”
"At that time, there was an ancient tree. After thousands of years of absorbing the mysteries of the sun and the moon, and the essence of heaven and earth, it finally gave birth to spiritual wisdom and entered what you call the path of cultivation."
"Many years later, a weak insect climbed up its trunk and lived in the gaps between the trunks. This insect had a beautiful body and a weak trunk. When it crawled, it was extremely gentle, just like a lover. Touching your skin."
"At that time, there were many creatures living near the ancient tree, even mythical beasts such as the Phoenix, who would land here to rest. This insect seemed so inconspicuous. With its meager lifespan, the ancient tree might have disappeared as soon as it took a nap. not see."
As long as you are not stupid, you can understand that the ancient tree mentioned by Lingkong Sou is himself. It is full of memories. It is also a good experience to listen to the growth experience of senior powerful people, so whether it is Wu Yi or Yuan The fleece clothes are all concentrated.
"Shortly after this insect settled on the ancient tree, something happened in the sky. Thunder struck the ancient tree. The leaves fell off and the trunk was scorched black. The creatures that usually lived in the ancient tree fled in panic. No one wanted to stay. At that time, Gu Shu thought he was going to die. "
Speaking of this, Ling Kongsou's tone was quite low, but he recovered immediately. He was used to seeing strong winds and heavy rains, so he understood the difference between a crowded house and a crowded house. The reason why people gathered here was mainly because they wanted to benefit from you. That’s all.
At this time, sincerity is very important.
After falling to the bottom, Qianlong soared into the sky. "However, soon, the ancient tree discovered that it was not the case. There were still people silently guarding him. It was not that no one remembered his years of dedication."
"A weak insect was trying hard to climb up. I gave it a handful and let it reach the canopy of the tree. Unexpectedly, this little insect dared to curse the sky, hahaha!"
This time, Ling Kongsou made a slip of the tongue and admitted that he was the ancient tree in the story, but apparently he didn't realize it and was laughing happily.
People who have never experienced the feeling of despair and then seeing hope resurrected from the ashes will not understand the mood of the old man Lingkong, so Wu Yi did not brag embarrassingly and mindlessly.
However, Yuan Rongyi had obviously been intrigued and asked anxiously: "What happens after that? What happens after that? Has the ancient tree survived the catastrophe? What will be the fate of that insect after that?"
After asking this series of questions, Ling Kongsou looked at Yuan Rongyi with the same look as a grandfather looking at his granddaughter, with great love. He stopped laughing and said comfortingly: "I know, I know."
Even if Wu Yi understands Yuan Rongyi's methods, he will basically not do it unless he is in a desperate situation, so there is nothing to envy.
"Seeing this little insect, he dared to be so bold. The ancient tree regained his confidence and managed to survive the catastrophe. He also let this insect come to live in the heart of his tree and became his closest friend."
Is this the experience of growing up as a Gu mother? With such powerful protection, why would it be subdued by outsiders? The doubts in Wu Yi's heart not only did not decrease, but became more and more.
"Chongzhi gradually gained her own intelligence and became stronger. I called her Xin'er. When an enemy appeared, Xin'er was able to go out and subdue the enemy. The two of them lived in peace and quiet!"
"What an enviable life!" Yuan Rongyi sighed. At least Wu Yi didn't hear a hint of affectation. It might not be true feelings, but it was her ability not to reveal her true feelings.
Lingkongsou's tone sank again, and he responded: "Yes, it would be great if such a life could continue!"
"I should understand, I should understand, when she was extremely weak, she dared to challenge the heavens, she would not be content with mediocrity and emptiness."
"Did that senior Xin'er leave?" Yuan Rongyi asked the question that Wu Yi wanted to ask. At this time, Wu Yi became a spectator.
"Yes! She left with a wandering Taoist. At that time, even if I threatened to sever the relationship, I should have stopped her." Lingkongsou said with great regret.
"This was her original choice. If you really did this, it might have a counterproductive effect in the end. It is better to protect her secretly!" Yuan Rongyi has his own opinion.
Lingkongsou smiled and said: "What a smart girl. At that time, I did follow them all the time, secretly protected them, and solved a lot of problems for them."
"But, it was too late, and the result was irreversible."
