Arriving at the simple two-story courtyard again, Li Yi once again saw the patient who came here, the once powerful Alliance Speaker, a Wuzong-level powerhouse, and the teacher who is now the Confidential Secretary-General - Chen Shijing.
When they arrived, the old man was taking good care of a few chickens and ducks in the yard. Next to them was a green vegetable patch, which seemed to be growing well. It was obvious that the old man didn't worry about it less. At this moment, Chen Shijing didn't look like a martial arts master at all. He looked just like his neighbor's uncle.
Seeing the two of them arriving, the old man didn't pay attention. He still paid attention to the chickens and ducks that were competing for food. From time to time, he would sprinkle a handful of feed and have a great time.
Finally, after he had fed all the chickens and ducks, he clapped his hands with satisfaction, and then said to Li Yi with a smile: "Xiao Li, thank you. Thanks to you, my old man can finally live a little longer." .”
"I'm here to get an answer." Li Yi just said lightly.
"Okay! You should have known these things a long time ago. Come in." Chen Shijing didn't care about his attitude.
The three of them sat in a small room warmed by the sun. Chen Shijing personally made a cup of tea for Li Yi: "Try it, this is good tea."
"You can say it." Although Li Yi was expressionless on the surface, he actually gained some understanding of the former speaker after going through that thrilling journey to the spiritual world.
At least he could tell that the old man was not the kind of big shot who pretends to be approachable. He really had this kind of character.
A person who pretends to be all about human development and protecting homeland in the spiritual world does not look like a hypocritical person, but Li Yi is not used to showing emotions in front of strangers.
"I'm quite impatient, young man." Chen Shijing didn't care. He took a sip of tea slowly and said: "Actually, I have never believed in those weird things, such as awakened people's powers. Labor and management are He was just an ordinary person from the beginning, and fought step by step until today. For us warriors, if you can reason with him, just reason with him, and if you can't reason with him, just use your fists to reason with him." What the old man said He was extremely domineering. He glanced at Li Yi and saw that he had no expression.
"I'm sorry. The old man is old and talks a little too much. Let's just say it directly. The reason why I found you so quickly was because of one person."
Li Yi tried to ask: "Old Li?"
"Of course not." Chen Shijing quickly denied this statement, "This person has a great background, and he is a person who lived more than three hundred years ago."
An ancient man?
What does an ancient person have to do with me? Li Yi's thoughts were instantly disrupted, and he was eager to know what happened next.
"That was discovered when we were excavating ancient ruins. This excavation work is very critical for today's mankind. It can even be said that it was precisely because of this archaeological discovery that what happened next Many things." Chen Shijing's face was full of memories, as if he was immersed in what happened back then.
"What did you find?"
Chen Shijing did not answer his question, but instead asked him a question: "What do you think of the current awakened people? Do you know how the awakened people came into being?"
"It should be talent, right? Or bloodline. Just like some people are born with fine clothes and fine food. They don't have to worry about food and drink, and they stand directly at the top of the pyramid." This is a common thought among people on the ground. Li Yi simply said directly Just use it.
Chen Shijing nodded noncommittally and continued: "What we discovered that time largely overturned this view. We found the research notes of an ancient scientist in a ruins, and he put forward a theory that human beings People are born with all kinds of incredible superpowers. This superpower will manifest at a certain age and reach its peak as the human body matures. And the person who activates this superpower for the first time, according to our The current term is called the Awakened One."
"And he put forward a theory that everyone has this kind of super power, because the switch of this ability is hidden in everyone's body. He used a term." When Chen Shijing said this, his expression was more serious than ever.
"God's gift."
Hearing this word, Li Yi couldn't help but think of his old tablet and the owner Li Nianzhu mentioned.
Will...
Chen Shijing continued: "I was also on the team at the time, and my first reaction was disgust. This theory of blaming the Creator for unexplainable things has existed since ancient times. It seems that human beings have been following those individuals since their birth. God cannot be separated from the relationship.”
The teacher has not received the second-generation source gene reagent so far. Is it also for this reason? " Xiang Feiyu interjected.
"Hey, you kid is very good at finding opportunities. Let me tell you, it's not because of this that I don't want to accept it. It's just because the second-generation sesame genes are too precious. Why waste my old bones? I'll leave it to you young people. Isn’t it better?”
Seeing that Xiang Feiyu stopped talking, Chen Shijing continued: "In addition to finding the notebook during our subsequent excavations, we also found many human skeletons that were suspected to be experimental subjects. Research and testing showed that these human skeletons, in addition to their body shape, He is relatively tall, and his bone density is higher than that of ordinary people, but there is nothing special about him."
When Li Yi heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Xiang Feiyu, who was more than two meters tall. The other party seemed to be aware of his gaze and turned towards him with a smile.
"After listening to it for so long, I still don't find it has anything to do with me." Li Yi said this.
"Don't be impatient, I have to speak slowly, otherwise even if I tell you the answer directly, you will still be confused." Chen Shijing chuckled and took a sip of tea.
"Later, when we continued to study the notebook, we also discovered the diary written by this person named Liu Tianming. It was from these diaries that we found records related to you." Chen Shijing stared at Li Yi, Said word for word.
Did the ancients from more than three hundred years ago have records about me in their diaries? Li Yi couldn't help but want to refute this ridiculous statement loudly, but he couldn't.
After all, the secret behind him seems more absurd. An inhuman creature who calls himself a manager claims to have been waiting for his master for tens of thousands of years. A broken code that is said to be the first generation Zero... Oh, this is okay, not too outrageous.
Chen Shijing obviously understood his expression: "I know you don't believe it, so I asked someone to bring copies of those diaries. You can read it yourself." As he said that, he placed a tightly sealed notebook on the table. He motioned for Li Yi to see for himself.
Unable to tell what he was feeling, Li Yi solemnly read page after page. What I saw at first was all about this superpower research, but later on, the contents of the diary gradually became weird and incomprehensible. It was not until Li Yi saw a description that made people sweat coldly that he was surprised. Looking at Chen Shijing in front of him, he seemed to be completely unable to believe what was written above.
"When I first saw it, my expression was the same as yours." Chen Shijing took a sip of tea as he expected.
"That's right, this Liu Tianming actually met God. Maybe it's not appropriate to say that. He should have met something left by God." Chen Shijing looked solemn and said the next words word by word.
"Those things are gray fog."
