Intuitively, Gu Xu always felt that something was wrong with this statement.
No matter before or after time travel, he regarded himself as an ordinary person, but by chance, he paid some price in exchange for some gifts, and thus had a unique destiny.
But at this moment, the white-haired boy told him that he had always been the reincarnation of a noble and powerful man.
The life on earth in the past life and the struggle in this life's cultivation are all arranged experiences.
This gave him an awkward feeling.
"Our trip to the Kunlun Mountains is not only to find the last fragment of the 'Astrolabe', but also to awaken all the power of your previous life." The white-haired boy sighed softly and continued, "When then, My mission must come to an end."
"You mean...by then, you will disappear? Completely leave my conscious world?"
"That's right. What's wrong? Can't you bear to leave me?"
"Hmm... I'm not used to it."
"You are still a person who values love and justice. But I will not disappear completely, but will merge with you. At that time, you will get everything that belongs to me, and we will truly be indistinguishable from each other. "
Gu Xu walked out of the golden light curtain while silently thinking about the white-haired boy's words in his heart.
The light gradually faded behind him.
The scene that happened in front of him shocked him again.
He saw three shamans on the holy mountain appearing in front of him at the same time——
One is the white-haired old woman I saw just now.
One is an old man who is blind in one eye and has thinning hair. He is thin and wears colorful clothes similar to the old woman's. From a distance, he looks like a rooster with gorgeous feathers that is dying.
Another was a tall young woman. The strangely shaped tattoos on her face and the animal skin clothing full of wild atmosphere added a bit of enchantment and awe-inspiring temperament to her originally handsome face.
These three people have a transcendent status and are highly respected on the grassland.
But at this moment, they were all kneeling in front of him.
One person is holding a colorful cross-collar robe, inlaid with gems and embroidered with gold. The rare sable fur is paired with precious silk fabrics, which is very noble and complements each other.
One person is holding a gold crown with complex reliefs on it, showing the fighting patterns of four wolves and four disc-horned sheep. There is also a conspicuous wolf head carved on the top of the crown, and a pair of eyes made of emeralds exude a cold light.
One person was holding a cane made of white bones. The head of the cane was carved into the shape of a skull, which looked quite eerie.
Gu Xu looked at them and frowned slightly.
"Sir, please forgive us for our previous disrespect," the old woman said first. "It wasn't until the great Wolf God sent down the oracle just now that we knew that you were his incarnation and his messenger walking in the world. Your instructions represent him. will.
"In recent years, we grassland people have been oppressed by the Qi State and live in dire straits amid internal and external troubles. Only you can save us from our suffering.
"We hereby implore you to become the new khan of the grassland. Wherever your sword points, we are willing to risk our lives to follow you."
After hearing her words, Gu Xu did not respond immediately.
"What's going on?" he asked the white-haired boy in his mind.
"This is a great gift from Yuanbao," the white-haired boy chuckled, "Aren't you going to go against Emperor Tianxing and the Daqi Dynasty in the future? How can you do it without your own power? Do you really want to rely on it? To fight alone against a regime with a solid foundation and many powerful people?”
"I just don't want to be the human incarnation of a dog." Gu Xu said lightly.
What the white-haired boy said did make sense. In the process of escaping all the way recently, he has deeply experienced the strong feeling of powerlessness of a single person in front of the huge state machinery, and has narrowly escaped death many times with his life hanging by a thread. If Zhao Yan and Dayan hadn't provided him with protection, and Xue Nu had been his bodyguard all the way, he might have died countless times.
It's just that Gu Xu also has some self-awareness and knows that he is not the kind of person suitable to control a force.
Partly because he is lazy. If it were not forced by fate, he might not even want to practice, he would just want to lie at home and be a leisurely person enjoying himself.
On the other hand, he really doesn't like to deal with complex interest relationships between people.
For example, Shouchangfang in Luojing City was nominally his property, but in fact he was just a hands-off shopkeeper, leaving all the matters below to the retainer Shen Qiu.
The "big gift" given by the Wolf God today did not make him feel happy, but instead added a bit of worry to his heart.
There is no such thing as a free meal.
If he wants to use the power of the grassland barbarians to fight against the Daqi Dynasty, he will inevitably shoulder a heavy responsibility, and his fate will be firmly bound to this group of "wolf people" from then on.
"But we can't tell them the truth directly, right?" The white-haired boy responded in a teasing tone, "Then the mentality of these 'wolf people' will directly collapse."
"I'm not familiar with this group of people at all."
"You are the messenger of God, there is no need to be familiar with them. Besides, didn't you just discover that you can intercept and use the power of incense belonging to the Wolf God? In the future, you will be promoted to the realm of 'Guixu' to deal with Taishang Hao God is destined to take the power of incense in the entire wild world as his own.
"Although there is not much incense on the grassland, if you miss these, you will never have the chance to step into the realm of 'Return to the Ruins' in your life.
"Besides, with the 'Wolf God's Blessing', Prairie Khan can possess the combat power of a saint in a short period of time. Are you not interested in this at all?"
Gu Xu pondered for a few seconds.
"You have arranged all this in advance, right?"
The white-haired boy did not answer his question directly, but took the opportunity to continue teasing him: "Look, you were so resourceful in your previous life, and how well you knew how to prepare for rainy days and store grain to guard against hunger. It's not like you now, without any plan." Xing was chased by the Qi court and was scurrying around like a headless fly, in a state of embarrassment.
"Hey, if it weren't for the fact that the cycle of cause and effect cannot be changed, I really don't want to admit that you, a simple-minded fool, are my reincarnation."
While Gu Xu and the white-haired boy were having a conversation in the conscious world, the three barbarian shamans no longer waited patiently for his reply. Instead, adhering to the simple and rough tradition of the grassland, they put a golden crown and robe on him without any explanation. Then he forced the bone cane into his hand.
Then he prostrated himself on the ground again and loudly recited obscure prayers in the language of the grasslands.
Everyone around was shocked and horrified when they saw such a scene.
