Origin Chapter 440: Three questions
Before this, Wu Zhongyuan had seen that the old man in black was a little bored, but he never thought that the old man in black would suddenly come here.
"You said before that during these seven days, you will tell me everything I want to know..."
"What I said is what I can tell you, and I will tell you. Who would have thought that you would ask such trivial questions, so annoying." The old man in black flexed his fingers and raised his hand. "Three, just three."
Wu Zhongyuan didn't answer. The black-clothed old man's attitude was very firm. It was unrealistic to want him to change his mind. The only thing he could do at the moment was to select the three most important questions from the many questions and ask them.
Although he asked a lot of questions before, he did not ask random questions, but revolved around a few key questions, one was the situation of the melee of the Six Paths, the second was the specific strength of the Five Paths, and the third was his current situation. Since there are only three questions left, the questions must be succinct and concise.
After pondering for dozens of seconds, Wu Zhongyuan raised his head and said, "What will happen after the seal disappears?"
Wu Zhongyuan asked solemnly, and the black-clothed old man answered solemnly, "Once the seal disappears, the five imprisonments will be opened, and then the five worlds can come and go freely. And without the guard of the mysterious spirits of the four directions, you are completely powerless. Stop it. The gods, ghosts and demons will reappear in the world, absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and have a strong physical body. Once they stabilize their positions, they will launch an army to attack and regain lost ground.”
After the black-clothed old man spoke, Wu Zhongyuan did not answer the call immediately. Since there were only three opportunities left to ask questions, he could not ask for specific details. Most of what he said coincided with his previous guesses, but there were also some details that he had not thought of before, that is, after the seal disappeared, the five paths would have a process of absorbing the spiritual energy of the heavens and the earth. How long is unknown. In addition, according to the old man in black, it is not difficult to see that before Fuxi sealed the five paths, the five paths coexisted with human beings, otherwise the old man in black would not have said that he "recovered lost ground".
A very important conclusion can be drawn from the clues from various aspects, that is, the situation during the flood and famine is somewhat similar to the situation in the late Qing Dynasty. The gods, ghosts and demons, like the Western powers, divided the late Qing Dynasty into their own colonies. For too long, they have regarded the colony as their territory. In addition, Fuxi's sealing of the four gods, ghosts, demons and demons did not put them in prison, but sent them back to their hometown.
After thinking about it, Wu Zhongyuan asked a second question, "Which of the five paths is stronger or weaker?"
"Are you asking about that year or now?" the old man in black asked rhetorically.
"Is there any difference?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.
"Yes." The black-clothed old man nodded. Seeing Wu Zhongyuan's regretful expression, he waved his hand, "Don't worry, I won't be rude, this question doesn't count."
"If I ask what is the difference, it's not really?" Wu Zhongyuan laughed.
The black old man nodded, "Yes, it doesn't count. If you ask about the situation back then, I can tell you. If you ask about now, I can't answer, because I don't know their world in the past five thousand years. what happened."
Wu Zhongyuan looked at the old man in black with puzzled eyes, waiting for him to explain.
The old man in black said, "The Primordial Spirit is sealed by the Orcs, so they can obtain immortality. The remaining four are different from Orcs, where they can live forever, but in their own world, it is rare Longevity."
"You mean those who participated in the Six Paths melee are no longer there?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.
"It should be like this," the black-clothed old man said, and hurriedly added, "But all the five kings have the birth of the Nascent Soul, and it is unknown whether the four kings of gods, ghosts, demons and demons still exist."
Wu Zhongyuan was relieved when he heard the words, and took a long breath. Originally, his own strength was weak. If all the enemies were veterans who had participated in the Great War, then his situation would be even more dangerous. If only a few bare commanders survived, it would be better. Although the situation was still unfavorable to oneself, it was not too bad to be out of control.
"Do you still want to know which of the five paths was stronger or weaker back then?" the old man in black asked.
Wu Zhongyuan nodded.
The old man in black coughed twice, cleared his throat, and then said, "We are evenly matched."
Under normal circumstances, after clearing the throat, it will be a long speech. I never thought that the black-clothed old man only said four words and then there is no further text. Seeing Wu Zhongyuan looking at him suspiciously, the black-clothed old man shook his head and smiled, "No, I'm done."
"You..." Wu Zhongyuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"What," the black-clothed old man sneered, "I didn't mean to tease you, but you were too stupid, have you ever thought about it? The five ways can coexist for so many years, naturally they are evenly matched. The weak have long been slaughtered and driven out by the strong."
This dummy suffers from a loss of food, whether he is wronged or wronged, but in the final analysis, he has to blame himself, not because of his lack of thoughtfulness, but because his psychological quality is not good enough. Under the successive blows of the old man, his confidence has been greatly reduced, and he has lost his usual self-confidence and calmness, which is the main reason for his abnormal performance.
As the saying goes, good fortune and misfortune do not come singly. People will doubt themselves after being hit or suffered setbacks. Once they lose self-confidence, their IQ and EQ will decrease, and it is easier to make wrong decisions and judgments.
Seeing the frustration on Wu Zhongyuan's face, the black-clothed old man smiled and said, "Forget it, let me send you a few more words. Although the strengths of the five paths are roughly balanced, their temperaments and styles are quite different. The gods are arrogant and domineering, and the ghosts are cruel. The demons are fickle and deceitful, and the demons are tyrannical and murderous.”
"Where's the Orcs?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.
"Of course the orcs are bright and upright," said the old man in black, and glanced at Wu Zhongyuan with contempt. "Although the aliens are incomplete, they are not as despicable and shameless as you humans."
"Why are we despicable and shameless?" Wu Zhongyuan didn't want to listen.
"Is this your third question?" the old man in black asked.
"No no no, this doesn't count." Wu Zhongyuan hurriedly waved his hand, and he couldn't blame others if he asked for it.
The old man in black was very proud and said with a smile, "Tell me, what's the last question?"
"I won't ask the last question, please give me some advice." Wu Zhongyuan said.
The old man in black didn't expect Wu Zhongyuan to say this, and he was a little embarrassed, "I don't even know what you want to do, what advice can I give you?"
"What should I do if I want to send them back?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.
The old man in black was stunned for a moment, then he laughed, "Don't wear such a big hat if you don't have such a big head, just because you want to send people back? I advise you to stay here honestly. , so as not to be found and slashed with a knife.”
Wu Zhongyuan retorted, "Everything has a process, no one is born to be a master, and the current cultivation level is not satisfactory, it does not mean that it will be the same in the future."
"You can be considered courageous, but I advise you to give up this idea," said the old man in black. "No matter how hard you try, you can't surpass the ninth tier of the earth grid."
"Why?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.
"Because your qi training method is inherently flawed and limited by your lifespan, you don't have enough time to wear water and stone. Taixuan is already the ultimate in your qi training," said the black-clothed old man.
"You forgot that we still have martial arts skills. I have the Blue Dragon Armor, and I have developed the Fire Dragon True Qi of the Bear Clan, so I don't have the power to fight back?" Wu Zhongyuan said.
"It's useless, it's useless," the black-clothed old man shook his head again and again, "Don't say five kings, even if they are generals under their command, you can't beat them."
It's not a pleasant thing to be beaten all the time, Wu Zhongyuan stood up and walked outside the pavilion.
The old man in black knew he wouldn't go, and he never stopped him. Wu Zhongyuan didn't go far. He went under the tree and urinated, and picked two more fruits and brought them back.
"You didn't wash your hands," said the old man in black.
"I'm willing, it's up to you," Wu Zhongyuan glanced at him, "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
"You don't ask anything else?" the old man in black asked with a smile.
"Don't ask, what you said is not necessarily true." Wu Zhongyuan said.
"Where did I say something wrong?" the old man in black asked.
Wu Zhongyuan pointed to the stone house in the distance, "Your lord is too spiritual, I asked you how many people like her there are, and you said there are only seven or eight, but as far as I know, there are too spiritual people. Far more than seven or eight people."
"How could you know what happened back then?" the old man in black asked rhetorically.
"I have been to a tomb, and I have seen seven corpses. Those corpses are all silver. They should be from Shangling or Tailing and Jade Spirit. There are only seven or eight people, didn't they all die there." Wu Zhongyuan said.
The old man in black suddenly realized, waved his hand and said, "Lord Yingxing Huasheng, you asked how many people were in the same situation as her, I know seven or eight, so I will tell you the truth, you are actually blaming I'm here, and it's your fault that you didn't ask clearly."
"Don't say it," Wu Zhongyuan shook his head, receiving too much information at one time, his mind was a little dazed, "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
"Take care of the Lord from me," said the old man in black.
"What if I don't want to?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.
"As long as I give you enough benefits, you will be willing." The old man in black was very confident.
"What can you do for me..."
