This is the aurora in the mythology of the ancient country," the old man Reheman said excitedly. "I never saw it when I came here last time. This kind of light is said to be produced when great things at the level of ghosts and gods fall, but it is too far away from the human world. It took tens of thousands of years to reach here. "
Kite looked at the sky in fascination and sighed: "In other words, what we see now is the light from tens of thousands of years ago. It is so beautiful."
The few people who could fly had their feet off the ground. They followed the souls of the ancient marine creatures and roamed freely among the "sea water". However, Fang Tianmu stayed on the ground. He could always see it with his eyes. Something deeper, the aurora had an extra color in his eyes, it was silvery white, which clearly outlined the lines of the aurora. Fang Tianmu felt that there should be some pattern to the lines. What he saw when he looked up This side is similar to a small part of a petal. If you follow its roots, you may find the center of the flower.
Fang Tianmu told everyone his thoughts, so everyone planned to search for Hua Xin, but there was a problem during the search. When they were flying in the sky, the souls of ancient marine creatures would interfere with them, and Fang Tianmu discovered , only when looking at the sky from the ground, the silver-white lines of the aurora have a certain pattern. When he went to the sky, he couldn't find the right way, so everyone fell back to the ground and searched for their destination on foot. .
Everyone is a cultivator and can withstand hunger much better, but old man Reheman is different. He has finished all his food long ago. Even if he can be rehydrated by these miraculous "seawater" at night, he can at most After holding on for five or six days, what no one expected was that old man Reheman suddenly passed away that night.
The old man walked very peacefully. Maybe for so long, finding this sea was his only belief. Maybe he could survive from the desert many years ago and exhausted all his luck. He had long become a loner without any of nostalgia. When he knelt down on the ground again, he softly chanted an ancient saying "Gurgling is not matched", which means eternal sleep and blessing, and closed his eyes forever in this dream-like sea of miracles.
Everyone could not accept the old man's departure for a while, and did not move forward for a long time, so they stayed at the same place and planned to continue walking the next day. The soil and rocks under their feet were wet and soft, making it impossible to dig a hole, so everyone waited until the sun came out the next day. Appeared, the ocean and the souls of ancient creatures disappeared instantly, and the earth and rocks turned back into desert. Only then did everyone dig a deep pit in the sand and bury the old man in it.
The scorching sun during the day almost turned everyone into dried meat. Later, he came up with a way. Huzi changed the gravity of the sand, forcing it to gather together to form sand blocks, and then hollowed it out to create an underground space. After getting in, they covered it with a piece of sand, and it suddenly became much cooler. But after a while, the men had to go out and clean up the sand, because sandstorms were constant, and the sand pit they were sitting in was constantly being buried.
After waiting like this for a whole day, when night fell, the legendary sea came to the world again, with the same vivid ancient marine creatures, and the aurora still hung down in the sky. The bell suddenly shouted, telling everyone to hurry in one direction. look. When everyone looked around, they discovered that the old man Reheman, who had passed away yesterday, was swimming in the sea. His soul had become a part of this sea of miracles. The old man seemed invisible to everyone, and his expression was very natural. .
Huzi said: "As long as you die here, your soul will be sealed here."
Mu Ziyun smiled and said: "That may be the case, but I think he is willing."
Fang Tianmu was still walking on the road ahead. When he reached midnight, Fang Tianmu stopped and said to the people around him: "This is a flower with a center."
"where?"
"It's far ahead."
Everyone rested during the day and traveled at night. After walking for three nights, they felt that they were close to the center of the ocean, but in fact it was still a very long distance away. The sea was too big, and sooner or later everyone would be unable to bear it.
Zhuan Wangdong conducted an experiment that day. Because the existence form of this sea is very similar to spiritual power, he tried to interfere with the souls of ancient marine creatures through his own spiritual power. The result was gratifying, and it indeed had an effect, and Zhuan Wang Dongze told everyone a deeper secret. These dead souls visible to the naked eye may not be real souls, but a kind of illusion under the influence of spiritual power. As for why our bodies replenish water at night, it should be due to the hypnosis of the human body by strange magic like mental power. And everyone's body is probably seriously dehydrated, but they are just not aware of it.
"Look!" Zingdang has been paying attention to the soul of old man Reheman, and found that the old man has been walking around everyone, and now he has begun to express his expression.
Zhuan Wangdong rolled his eyes, and then immediately used his mental power to interfere with the old man's soul. He found that it didn't have much effect. Zhuan Wangdong said with more certainty: "In this sea, there is only one true soul, the old man. From his current perspective Go and see, this is a dead sea, there is no living thing, only the sea water and himself."
Fang Tianmu said coldly: "Pull away the creatures and follow me."
Zhuan Wangdong immediately opened up his mental power, and the souls of the ancient creatures began to disintegrate under this effect. Some even began to twist and deform, and even reappeared in some places like sand. Sure enough, there was something fishy about this sea. The sea water above the head was also peeled away by Zhuan Wangdong. In this way, even if everyone was flying, Fang Tianmu could still see the correct direction. As long as they left the ground, everyone's speed would be hundreds of times faster. Just use After one night, we arrived at the center of the aurora.
Fang Tianmu saw the aurora falling from the sky, converging into a vertical river of light, gradually falling to the ground. The further down it went, the dimmer and thinner the brightness and width of the light became. Directly below the center of the aurora is the source. Strangely enough, it is a mermaid playing a flute. Zhuan Wangdong said: "That's right, that kind of power comes from the flute of that creature. This ocean and those creatures are all virtual images created by it."
"It's so beautiful." Kite couldn't help but praise.
"It's also very sad." Zhuan Wangdong suddenly had mist in his eyes and choked up: "I can feel its sadness and loneliness. This is a long heartache."
"How could this happen?" Du Xiaoyue asked. Everyone was puzzled for a while. At this time, Zhuan Wangxu spoke. He stared at the creature, seemingly feeling pity. He said: "Remember what the old man said about the origin of the desert? Meteors falling from the sky, the entire All the water in the sea evaporated, and the sea turned into earth, and then into a desert. In that case, all living creatures would die, and this guy may be the only one who survives."
Du Xiaoyue looked at the mermaid and said quietly: "Just like the emperor of the ocean, it was once a god in the sea, right? The sea is gone, but it has been guarding among the bones of countless creatures for tens of thousands of years?"
Someone took a deep breath and sighed: "That must be the most beautiful sea." Everyone's eyes suddenly softened when they looked at the mermaid, and they wanted to step forward to wake it up from its dream, but they were afraid that it would This kind of loneliness hidden under self-deception completely broke out.
"Don't think so much, just go and ask." After Huzi said that, he walked forward. Before anyone could stop him, they saw him chatting with the mermaid. A group of people hurriedly came over. After the mermaid saw the living thing, , like an accident, but also like it had been expected for a long time, it put down the flute in its hand, and the sea suddenly disappeared, and all the creatures disappeared, except for the aurora above its head. Novel things are no longer strange, and the mermaid also understands human language.
In fact, everyone has already guessed the general appearance, but the time is much longer than everyone imagined. It is not a story hundreds of thousands of years ago, but even millions of years ago, a certain great ghost and god fell and hit This ocean was destroyed, and all living creatures died in an instant. Only the elves of that ocean, which can also be said to be the patron saints - mermaids, survived. There were more than one mermaids in the first place. They used their divine power to make the sea reappear, but the creatures were no longer there. , this sea area became the Dead Sea, and the mermaids lost their source of energy and died one after another. Later, the ancestors of the mermaids used magical witchcraft to sacrifice all the patron saints to let one The little mermaid gained immortality, and it was this one that everyone saw.
The ocean has completely dried up and turned into a desert. The little mermaid stayed alone. Too lonely, she used magic to create a sea based on her memory. At night, the world is dark and the sun is light, and it can wake up those who have been waiting for a long time. The souls of the ocean walked away, but after thousands or thousands of years, all the souls of the souls have been reincarnated, so the little mermaid had no choice but to create a virtual image to deceive and paralyze itself. This is not the first time that it encounters living beings. As long as it can be found, it will definitely It will not be harmed in any way. It is a guardian spirit, so it is a good god in the world.
"It's very hard..." Kite's words reached his throat and he swallowed it again. No one can imagine what this little guy has endured for millions of years. It is still smiling, so everyone does not need to say anything and wants to be happy with it. , no longer qualified to talk about anything else.
Mu Ziyun finally asked about the story, and the mermaid happily asked everyone to come to it. It wanted to tell everyone a story that was told to it by its elders millions of years ago and asked the tribe to pass it down from generation to generation. The name is "Talking City". Everyone sat cross-legged in front of the ancient god and listened to the story with relish.
The content of the story may be very ordinary, without any suspense or fancy, and it is far less exciting than the mermaid's own legend, but everyone listened obediently and listened to it word for word. The ancient god still looked like a child. After finishing speaking, he wiped his mouth happily and laughed.
