Origin Chapter 443: The last seven days

According to the color of the lotus leaf of the nine-leaf green lotus, it is not difficult to see that it corresponds to the ninth order of the earth grid, which is also destined to stop its efficacy from being too mysterious. This point does not need to be verified by the black-clothed old man. It can be inferred that if you ask, the only consequence is to be despised by the old man in black again.

Furthermore, if the nine-leaf green lotus can really surpass the ninth tier of the earth grid, the old man in black has already taken it himself, and he does not need to be promoted to Jinxian, even if he is promoted to Tianxian, he can prolong his life and not die.

Wu Zhongyuan woke up after only two hours of sleep. After waking up, he walked around the island again. There are some strange plants planted near the water on this island. These plants are poisonous, and After the smells emitted by these plants are mixed, the toxicity will be multiplied, and a large amount of poisonous gas will condense around the island, lingering, and thanks to his invincibility, it is impossible for others to set foot on this island.

Wu Zhongyuan got up early, and the monkey got up early. The monkey was not afraid of the poisonous gas of the island. At this time, he was running around the island, throwing dead birds that had strayed into the island into the sea.

The IQ of this monkey is higher than that of ordinary monkeys. Knowing that Wu Zhongyuan and the old man in black are together, they do not attack him. After encountering each other, they squeak a few times, as if to greet him.

At dawn, the old man in black got up and went out, called Wu Zhongyuan over, and brought him to familiarize himself with the situation on the island, including the characteristics of various fruit trees and the precautions for management. There are many fruit trees on the island, most of which are land There are only a few varieties that the woman in white eats. She has a spiritual cultivation level, which is equivalent to the middle level of heaven and immortal. She no longer eats the fireworks of the human world. hunger.

The life of the woman in white is also very regular. Before sunrise, she will go to the cliffs of Dongshan Mountain, wait for the sunrise from there, until noon, and then return to her residence to play the piano, and then she will laugh and cry, and she will be dazed all the time in the afternoon. , will lie down for a while at three watch.

The task of the monkey is to give her food twice a day, and also to clear the obstacles on the way she must pass, lead her to the cliff, and then lead her back, the woman in white walks without looking at the road, Like sleepwalking, many actions are more out of habit or instinct.

Wu Zhongyuan did not ask about the situation of the woman in white. With his current aura cultivation, it is impossible to repair the damaged Yuanshen. Furthermore, this is an island on the back of a turtle. If the dantian armor changes color, It means that the person she was waiting for has returned, and Xuan Gui will take her to the agreed place.

All he needs to do is do his duty and do what he needs to do, and he can't take care of the rest.

There are many trees on the island. Wu Zhongyuan can't remember the characteristics of so many trees in one day. In addition, the old man in black must let the monkey accept his new leader. In addition to the language, he has to make some The false move made the monkey understand that he was stronger than the old man in black, and the old man in black had to submit to him.

Above the stone room where the old man in black and the woman in white live, there are several dilapidated pavilions, one of which hangs a huge gong. When the poisonous gas lingering around the island dissipates, the monkeys will When the gong is sounded, the woman in white will emit aura and cover the whole island when she hears the sound of the gong.

This is an emergency measure, in order to prevent someone from destroying the poisonous mist and invading the island.

After a few days like this, the old man in black said less and less. He stayed at his residence most of the day, and did not go to the residence of the woman in white. In his opinion, he might stay with the woman in white. One room was disrespectful and offensive to her.

Seeing the old man in black like this, Wu Zhongyuan is sure that he is really reaching his deadline. Even if he wants to ask for advice, it is inconvenient to go in and disturb. He works in the forest every day. The monkey is too close. It's not that he hates monkeys, but the old man in black told him not to get too close to monkeys, otherwise this guy will get over his head.

Monkeys are always monkeys. They are stubborn by nature. No matter how much restraint they are made, it is impossible to keep their own feet. Although there is no stubborn behavior at this time, it is wrong to roll their eyes around.

Sometimes I feel that time passes very slowly, but when it comes to the last day, when I look back, I will feel that time passes quickly. In the afternoon of the seventh day, the old man in black left the stone room and settled down at Wu Zhongyuan. Cao Ting came over, carrying a wine jar in each hand.

Seeing the black-clothed old man rushing towards the grass pavilion, Wu Zhongyuan hurriedly got up and greeted him.

The old man in black put the wine jar in his left hand to Wu Zhongyuan, "Drink with me."

"Your cup is big enough." Wu Zhongyuan laughed. He knew what the old man in black meant, but he didn't want to make the atmosphere so sad.

"It's your good fortune that you can drink a thousand-year-old wine," the old man in black said with a smile, "It's a pity, I was pasted with three layers of sealing mud back then, and it's been a long time, and still a lot of it is scattered. These two jars Originally it was full, but now there is less than half of the jar left."

Wu Zhongyuan shook the wine jar and found that there was indeed only half of the jar left. At this time, the old man in black had already sat down from the grass pavilion, tilted the wine jar, and carefully tapped the mud seal at the mouth of the jar.

Wu Zhongyuan sat across from him, doing the same thing as he did.

"I'll be on my way after drinking this jar of wine." The old man in black said very calmly.

Although he knew that today was the deadline for the old man in black, Wu Zhongyuan couldn't help but feel sad when he heard the old man in black say, "What time is it?"

"At sunset," said the old man in black.

Wu Zhongyuan turned his head to look west, less than an hour before sunset.

The old man in black smashed the mud seal on the wine jar, removed the floating soil, and took a sip from the wine jar.

Wu Zhongyuan also took a sip. Some things are not as new as they are, but not as old as they are. This jar of wine has been stored for too long, and the smell of alcohol is very serious. Insufficient children.

The old man in black put down the wine jar and let out a long sigh, "I know you still have a lot of confusion in your heart, but I've said everything I can tell you, don't ask me anything, I'm a different kind of person. You are a human with seven apertures, you and I are not in the same camp, what I said and what I did have actually crossed the line.”

"If I had the heart to ask, I would have spoken a few days ago, why would I have waited until now," Wu Zhongyuan said casually, "You have already given a lot of nine-leaf green lotus, which is already a great help to mankind."

The old man in black waved his hand, "You are wrong, I don't want to help human beings, I just want to help you, I said earlier that you won't be able to survive for a while after the seal disappears, and I wasn't alarmist. Xiuwei, you are indeed unable to protect yourself. If you are promoted to Taixuan, you may be able to fight hard if you get a lot of helpers. But don't be too optimistic. I gave you Jiuye Qinglian just to convince you of losing. , lest he take chances and risk his life.”

Wu Zhongyuan held the wine jar and drank first, then put down the wine jar and asked, "Why do you despise human beings so much?"

The old man in black was respected and drank, and then said, "You are wrong again, I don't look down on human beings, I look down on all weak existences. In five thousand years, I have seen a lot and understood a lot. I found that The more powerful the existence is, the brighter it is, and the weaker the existence is, the more obscene it is. There is no limit for the weak to survive, and they can do anything despicable and shameless.”

As soon as Wu Zhongyuan wanted to speak, the old man in black raised his hand to stop it, "I know what you want to say, the enslavement and protection of the weak by the strong coexist. As long as you obey the enslavement of the strong, you can get the protection of the strong. If you don't obey, you will be punished. Think about it carefully, everything is like this, and so are you humans. While protecting your people, will you set rules for them? If they don't obey, do you? Punishment? You tell me, what is the difference between discipline and slavery?"

Wu Zhongyuan had never thought about this question mentioned by the old man in black before, and he didn't know how to answer it for a while.

The old man in black said again, "Your protection of the weak is also based on the fact that they obey the rules you set. This is a form of slavery in itself, but the severity is different. In that case, why do you still Resist the restraints of the strong, and obey them, and they will protect you."

“We don’t need their protection, nor do we accept their enslavement,” Wu Zhongyuan said. “In addition, there is a difference between restraint and servitude. As the saying goes, there are no rules and no rules are formed. There must be rules. , the framer himself does not comply with it is slavery."

Wu Zhongyuan never thought about the previous question of the black-clothed old man, and Wu Zhongyuan's remarks of the black-clothed old man had never been thought of before, so he did not refute, but grabbed the wine jar and took another sip, "I and you A suggestion, would you like to hear it?"

"I think." Wu Zhongyuan nodded sternly. He did not agree with some of the views of the old man in black, but he did not reject the kindness of the old man in black towards him.

"Break the seal in advance to release the orcs," said the old man in black. "You are too weak. If you want to protect yourself, you must join forces with the orcs."

Wu Zhongyuan did not answer, and had to admit that the suggestion of the black-clothed old man made some sense, but this matter was of great importance, and there were both pros and cons, which needed to be weighed carefully.

Seeing Wu Zhongyuan frowning, the old man in black said again, "I don't care about the life and death of human beings, but I don't want you to die."

Wu Zhongyuan smiled, "I'm so frank, I will seriously consider your suggestion. If I have the intention to release the orcs, how do I break the seal?"

"I don't know, you don't need to deceive me. This is a suggestion on a whim, not a deliberate conspiracy."

Wu Zhongyuan drank it, as did the old man in black.

"How long is it?" Wu Zhongyuan asked. Anyone with a profound cultivation base can look inside their meridians and air pockets, and can accurately estimate the specific time of their death.

The old man in black closed his eyes and pondered. After a while, he opened his eyes and said, "Half an hour."

"What else do you want to explain to me?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

The old man in black shook his head.

"I don't know your name yet." Wu Zhongyuan said.

"I don't have a name," said the old man in black. Seeing Wu Zhongyuan frowning, the old man in black said with a smile, "I really don't have a name. The Lord always called me Queer back then. You can't call me the same, right?"

The old man in black laughs, and Wu Zhongyuan laughs too. Women always have a greasy air when they name their mounts.

"What is your cultivation base?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

Although I don't know why Wu Zhongyuan asked this question, the old man in black still answered his question, "It's too empty."

"The Taixu cultivation base can kill me when I wear the blue dragon armor?" Wu Zhongyuan asked again.

"Even if you are wearing the blue dragon armor, you can't escape my control." The old man in black was quite confident.

"If this is the case, after the seal disappears, I may really not be able to live in the right time." Wu Zhongyuan said.

"That's not necessarily true. The Azure Dragon Armor is still somewhat useful. No one can beat it except me," said the black-clothed old man.

"You fly fast?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

"In all the world, I think second, no one dares to think first." The black clothed old man was arrogant.

"Fly again?" Wu Zhongyuan smirked.

"Hahaha," the black-clothed old man grabbed the wine jar and drank the rest of the wine, "Okay, fly again..."
