Chapter 163
silence.
Everyone on the deck listening to the story fell silent.
Shen Yan could not imagine what it was like to feel despair again and again. Even after waiting for hundreds of years, thinking that he had really found the trace of God, in the end, when he saw the scroll, it was just another Just despair.
Boci himself owns a jade chrysalis of immortality, so when he saw the "Scroll of the Banquet of Queen Mother Zhao Boju of the Song Dynasty", he probably already understood that the miracle of immortality came from this ancient scroll, not what he expected. Savior god.
At that time, BoCi, who was lost and confused, met Abraham and was persuaded by him to join Sin City. It seemed to be a natural thing.
Abraham is the thought leader of all desperate people. He has lived longer than Boci, and he has lived longer than Boci has been searching for hope in despair. He subverts the world, he annihilates humanity, he destroys everything. In the final analysis, he is nothing but A beggar, gangster, thief, and villain is just searching for his own hope endlessly. Although the legend about him is terrifying, it is also the echo of a desperate person.
The more Shen Yan learned about these stories, the more he discovered that these people, whether they were blood tyrants, Gaia Waves, or Abraham, they all seemed to be just a resistance to the injustice of fate. Of course, those who resist fate Maybe it won't end well.
For humble people, the desire for survival may seem like a trivial thing, but in fact, it is as out of reach as a reptile looking up to the sky.
Shen Yan couldn't help but think of a saying from his own time. In such a peaceful era, there were still countless people struggling at the humblest and most inconspicuous bottom. Money never entered the pockets of those who needed it, and power did not fall at all. In the hands of those who really need the help of power, the so-called wealth of justice is just a kind of charity from those who least need these things.
At this time, Dark Moon Archbishop Geras frowned and asked: "The ancient scroll that can grant people eternal life is in Abraham's hands, so... can he call out the ancient scroll that gives people the power of immortality? Who exists?"
Only then did everyone react from the silence.
Yes, if a demon gained the power to grant eternal life to people, the disaster in this world would be indescribable.
Just by relying on that ancient scroll, Abraham could even overturn the world. Don't underestimate human beings' desire and selfish desires for eternal life. The sins and wars derived from greed are never accidental.
Boji said: "If he succeeds, most of the people in this world will be ordered by him to find the god he wants to find."
However, the reality is that everyone is still running for their own survival.
Boci had, in fact, hoped that Abraham could successfully call the existence in the ancient scroll, so that he could speed up the search for traces of God.
Shen Yan also spoke: "The Queen Mother of the West in "The Legend of Queen Zhao Boju's Banquet at Yaochi in the Song Dynasty" although she is in charge of criminal laws and elixirs, she seems to be evil, but she is actually the righteous god who maintains the order of the world. Abraham is a demon recognized by the world. Not being able to call it out is also expected.”
When a mercenary calls on the Holy Spirit in the holy vessel, it also depends on the suitability.
After saying that, they all looked at Shen Yan: "Do you know that ancient scroll?"
Shen Yan's body trembled, he listened in rapt attention, and reflexively evaluated the antique.
Everyone looked curious
To the extreme,
Shen Yan even said the name of the ancient scroll.
Shen Yan stuttered: "I... saw it in an old book."
It's okay for others,
Zhao Kuo pinched the corners of his mouth.
When he met Shen Yan, Shen Yan didn't even know the words. How could an illiterate person read such incredible records from ancient books?
Shen Yan also glanced at Zhao Kuo. Oh my god, has this lie been exposed or not? It made him feel anxious.
No, he had to comfort Zhao Kuo at night and make him one of his own, otherwise he always felt that all his secrets would be known by this guy.
Boji had seen the scroll. He only knew that it was an old item, but he didn't know what it was, so he was very interested in its origin.
Others were also very interested and looked at Shen Yan.
Shen Yan sighed inwardly, took a deep breath, and then said: "That's what is recorded in the ancient book..."
Shen Yan didn't lie. To these people, the books he had read were indeed considered ancient books. Well, they were all ancient documents with the most powerful pollution power.
"In the old days, many dynasties like the Eternal Dynasty were divided and passed down over time, just like the Eternal Dynasty. It was just that there were more dynasties passed down than the Eternal Dynasty."
"One of the dynasties was called the Southern Song Dynasty. The Southern Song Dynasty Zong family painter Zhao Boju painted a huge painting that was 33.7 centimeters wide and 401 centimeters long according to the world's legends about ancient gods... The centimeters are equivalent to today's..."
Shen Yan told the origin of this ancient scroll, which has the power to make people immortal, and the stories of the characters in the painting.
There is the story of King Mu of Zhou, the human emperor, and the legend of the Queen Mother of the West controlling punishments and elixirs.
Shen Yan's voice was like a mysterious whisper, unraveling the hidden secrets of the past. These things were too long ago, but in this world, they exist in another form around everyone.
The intersection of reality and history is like an illusory movie, showing incredible traceability under the expression of sound.
"In "The Book of Mountains and Seas", the story of the Queen Mother of the West is also recorded...the swamp snake country...no-man's forbidden zone..."
Whether it is Chinese mythology or historical books, they are all part of Chinese civilization.
At this time, Shen Yan was like a singer of history.
And the listener is already mesmerized.
The stories belonging to the old days are too colorful.
Shen Yan finished speaking in one breath and then shrugged.
Those historical relics caused waves in this world that Shen Yan could not imagine. A scroll of ancient paintings brought the miracle of eternal life.
At this time, Zhao Kuo said: "The ancient books you read are quite interesting."
Shen Yan: "..."
This guy must have done it on purpose.
Shen Yan quickly changed the subject: "Your Highness Boci, there may be someone you need to meet. Maybe he is an old acquaintance of yours."
Shen Yan was naturally talking about the uncle from the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group who lost his memory once a year.
Boci glanced at Shen Yan strangely, his old acquaintance?
He does have many old acquaintances, but human lifespan is limited. When he realizes this, he will no longer take the initiative to meet new friends. An emotional sustenance is the most vicious thing to an immortal.
The curse.
As for those passers-by who had no emotional connection in life, Boji never regarded them as old acquaintances.
The men from the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group brought Uncle Guo out.
Uncle Guo remained silent, carving a wooden statue with a knife in his hand. The wooden statue was graceful and luxurious...
Uncle Guo's carpentry is not very good, and his carving is a bit rough. That's right. How could a person with only one year's memory learn superb carpentry skills?
Shen Yan had also seen Uncle Guo carving wooden figures. According to people from the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group, Uncle Guo didn't remember anything, except that he kept carving the figures, over and over again, all the time, whenever he had time. He spent most of his year carving this puppet.
Just like on a big ferry on the sea, because there is nothing going on, Uncle Guo can carve in the warehouse alone without any sense of existence, making everyone think that there is no such person on the ship.
Shen Yan also lamented that Uncle Guo's wood carvings were too rough. Shen Yan could not recognize them before, but now, from the vague mold on the wood carvings, he could probably guess that the carvings he made should be to grant him eternal life and maintenance. The one who remembers exists.
He forgot everything except the existence that gave him eternal life like a mother.
As soon as Uncle Guo came out, Boci looked over. The expression on Boci's face was too complicated to describe in words.
One hundred years is already more than the lifetime experience of an ordinary person, and Boci has lived in the same tribe as this person for a hundred years.
Uncle Guo's temperament was very silent, but there was some confusion on his face: "Are we going to fight? I can't remember how to fight with people."
People from the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group: "..."
Because of Uncle Guo's temperament, he doesn't like to communicate with others, so he usually calls this uncle when he has a fierce fight with others. He can't even remember how to fight with people, but he can beat them to their knees.
Boci opened his mouth because Uncle Guo glanced at him, but without any expression, as if he was looking at a stranger.
Those hundred years of memories must have been forgotten long ago.
Boci said to himself, not knowing whether he was telling Uncle Guo or himself: "After you died, I returned to your tribe and moved your corpses into the cave, and your corpse was among them. , I spliced it together for a long time before I managed to piece your body together...Abraham killed people and never left a whole body for anyone."
Everyone: "..."
Why do you feel so cold?
This uncle has been turned into corpses, but he can still survive?
The expressions of the members of the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group were even more solid. Uncle Guo's silent temperament was just like that of an ordinary neighbor. Who would have thought that the inconspicuous uncle living with them would turn out to be a strange and extraordinary person? The presence?
Shen Yan also had a lot of doubts in his mind. Boci had seen the fragments of Uncle Guo's body with his own eyes, or it was the body that Boci helped piece together. There should be no mistake in this.
But can this survive?
It's unimaginable.
Also, Uncle Guo can survive, but what about the other people in that tribe? Are you like Uncle Guo, wandering in a corner of this world, living without memory and purpose?
Shen Yan knew from Uncle Guo's silent expression that it was impossible to get any clues, and since Boci had never returned to that tribe, he probably didn't know anything more.
Uncle Guo was whittling wood again. Even among the crowd, no one would notice his presence. Of course, now
All eyes were on him.
Uncle Guo has no memories of the past, but Boci does. Boci stands next to Uncle Guo, not knowing what he is talking about. This must be part of the relationship they have established over a hundred years.
A person who has no memory of the past is still the same person as before. If it were the past, Shen Yan would definitely answer, no, the essence of a person is the soul rather than the body.
But now, because it involves the people around him, Shen Yan can't answer it. This is too unfair to Uncle Guo. Abraham has plucked the string of fate and deprived them of their memory.
Bo Ci seemed to be asking Uncle Guo the same question. Facing a familiar yet unfamiliar person, Bo Ci's mood must be even more indescribable than Shen Yan's.
Shen Yan thought that Uncle Guo wouldn't answer Boci's questions, or didn't know how to answer them.
But what surprised Shen Yan was that after being stunned for a moment, Uncle Guo actually raised the wood carving in his hand and said in a low voice: "I want to know, who is she? When I was blank, she was the one who guided me. Hold me."
This may be the fate in the dark, giving Uncle Guo a way to retrieve his past memories.
Boci opened his mouth. The only way to retrieve his memory may be the old picture scroll in Abraham's hand. Uncle Guo, who has complete memories, can be considered truly resurrected, a strange immortal.
Everyone is listening to this weird story.
No, Dudu secretly hid in the money box in the cabin.
He held the human bone staff in his hand and struck it on the bronze dove, making a pleasant sound.
Dudu is still wondering why Shen Yan hasn't come to wake him up after so long?
If you don't pick it, it's a bit boring. I stroked the human bone staff again and again, and a strange wave was stimulated on the staff.
…
There is a lonely boat on the sea, and a lonely person on the boat.
Deadly silence, day and night, but what is more deadly than this deserted sea is the people on the boat.
It is said that people are collective animals, and if they do not communicate for a long time, they will have psychological problems, but this does not seem to apply to this person.
He endured the loneliness of the years, and he kept wandering to every corner of the world.
He was looking for something, but he couldn't find the direction.
This man looked quite young, a little tall and thin. Perhaps because of his thin face, his edges and corners were very sharp, especially the finger bones, where the protruding bone marks could be clearly seen.
At this time, the young man suddenly moved suspiciously and pointed his finger in the air: "This is really interesting. It's the first time that Boci has taken the initiative to contact me."
"Boji, have you found the answer to your doubts?"
"Perhaps your life is not long enough. When you live to my age, you will understand that this hopeless world cannot be saved by ourselves."
"I once told you my story, a story about a dirty beggar, thief, and gangster being redeemed. Who would have thought that the so-called powerful dynasty once trembled under the gaze of the lowest beggar in their eyes? Because I heard that voice.”
"Wave, destiny can be changed, and the order of the world can also be reshaped, whether it's you or
it's me,
Or can millions of desperate people in this world embrace our common hope?
Just find that voice and reconnect..."
Shen Yan's big ferry, inside the cabin.
Dudu tilted his head and then covered his ears. Who is this? It beeps endlessly, and likes to babble even more than their family Shen Yan.
Dudu covered his ears, stretched his head, and began to reason with his "babble".
Being able to beep like this is undesirable and will be disliked by others.
On the lonely boat, the young man was suddenly stunned: "The language of immortality, the whisper of the dragon?"
"Who are you?"
At this time, Shen Yan and the others were lamenting Uncle Guo's experience on the deck.
At this time, Dudu suddenly ran out of the cabin, so fast that he couldn't even see his dangling calves. He kicked up his legs and climbed up onto Shen Yan's shoulders, hiding behind Shen Yan's neck.
Shen Yan was stunned. Dudu, a miser, would actually take the initiative to move away from the money box. The sun was rising in the west?
"Why do you still look a little panicked?" Shen Yan muttered while looking towards the cabin.
Dudu's eyes widened, who was panicking?
Their golden dragons are not timid, it's just... that guy is too good at beeping.
At this time, Waves, Gaia suddenly raised her head.
The originally calm sea seemed to be affected by some mysterious force. The waves became more and more turbulent, and the huge waves even shook the big ferry.
shipwreck?
This was the first thing Shen Yan thought of, but it was too sudden.
Father Dong's expression also changed, and he loudly organized the sailors on the ship to lower the sails and stabilize the ship.
The sea people in the sea also surrounded the boat in fear: "This is not normal. This is the first time I have seen a storm without any warning."
The sea tribe is uniquely gifted in predicting storms, which means this is not a natural phenomenon?
The big ferry began to shake even more violently, and some children were almost thrown off. Fortunately, there were many adults on board who caught them.
The big ferry shook even more violently, and there was chaos.
Shen Yan was also holding a child in his hand, but he was looking into the distance on the sea. As far as the naked eye could see, it was still calm, except that their ship was under strange attack.
Shen Yan shouted loudly to the sea people in the sea: "Are there any enemies under the boat?"
These sea tribesmen are here to send their tribesmen or children to school. They cannot return to their homes for the time being due to Cthulhu and plan to visit the sea outside the mercenary city.
The Sea Tribe sank into the sea, and then resurfaced: "Everything is normal, nothing."
There is no enemy, just a mysterious force that comes from nowhere.
Even Gaia and Boji frowned.
"Except for God, the transmission of power requires a medium."
Before anyone could investigate, the strange appearance appeared on its own.
A pale back crawled out of the cabin with strange movements, as if it was alive.
Shen Yan: "..."
Isn't this the human bone Boze got from the Central Cathedral? Abraham's remains?
Later, I don’t know why, but Dudu held it in his hand as a staff every day, and sometimes he even chewed it with his mouth and was very happy.
Got it(),
?[()]?『Come to [].See the latest chapter. Complete chapter』(),
Boji didn't seem to care.
The spine was so weird and made strange sounds.
Dudu screamed on Shen Yan's shoulder, look, look, it's it, it started beeping again, beeping endlessly.
The sound of the spine is breathless.
"The poems of the Immortal have long been a thing of the past, and there are no traces of them in the silent history. Why did you learn the murmur of the dragon!"
"Even the descendants of the immortals are cursed for trying to learn their language, and you travel outside the rules."
"Who are you?"
Almost at the same time, Gaia and Boci said in a low voice: "Abraham!"
The people on the boat were also surprised at the same time.
Abraham!
The devil that almost turned the world upside down.
Shen Yan was also shocked, the dragon's language? Did he mean Dudu?
Shen Yan also kept in mind the previous wave of investigations into Dudu, but Dudu didn't know anything when he asked questions, and nothing was "tortured" out.
And Dudu's extremely complex whisper was the language of the golden dragon, one of the former immortals?
Dudu kept shaking his head: It's not me, it's not me, I'm not an immortal, stop beeping, you beeping makes the golden dragon a little scared.
The big ferry was bumping even more violently, as if it was about to tip over at any moment.
Dudu seemed to be afraid that the bone would reveal more secrets, and Shen Fan's words gathered in the air.
Whispering, on the boat and on the sea, there is only the murmuring. It is a kind of language and a kind of power.
Indescribable power is being formed.
The big ferries all quieted down in whispers.
Only the deep voice of Abraham on the spine remained: "Dragon language ritual? Immortal!"
And the sound of his spine falling to the deck with a clang, and there was no response.
They looked at the quiet spine for a while, then looked at Dudu: "..."
The history of those unknown, epic immortals seems to be right before our eyes.
