Bulwark of Light

Chapter 389
"There is one thing, I'm actually curious..."

Gu Shen glanced back at Li Qingsui, who was sleeping soundly in the car, and asked softly, "After all, the Li family is also a powerful family in the north of the Yangtze River. Talented people emerge in endlessly. Why should a little girl, at this age, bear so many burdens?"

He knew that the competition among the five major families was fierce.

Even a genius like Gong Zi needs to work hard to keep her status.

However... Li Qingsui is only about 15 years old.

It is too heavy to support Li Shi's burden and fall on a little girl's head.

"This... is actually the meaning of the Patriarch."

Gao Tian shook his head.

He lowered his eyebrows and said: "The head of the family has been ill for several years, and his body is very weak... You also know how many people are jealous and coveted the position of the head of the five families. At the time when Li Qingsui was appointed as the successor There was an uproar in the Presbyterian Church. It was because of both the head of the family and the previous guardian of the shrine mountain that they were able to overcome all opinions and decide this matter."

If possible, the owner of the Li family also wanted to give his daughter a good childhood.

just.

There are not so many ifs in this world.

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.

If this young bird, Li Qingsui, could not spread its wings before the protection of its father disappeared, then its final fate... would probably be to fall off a cliff.

It's tragic and realistic.

"For 600 years, the five families have controlled this place, and the five families have also been controlled by this place..."

Gao Tian smiled and looked at Gu Shen: "Did the Five Great Masters become the masters of Nagano, or... Nagano trapped the Five Great Masters in a cage?"

Some things, if you look at it from another angle, you will get a completely different answer.

"If the Shrine Mountain is a cage, so is Nagano outside the Shrine Mountain."

Gao Tian turned his head slightly, looked at the sleeping lady in the car, and said softly: "We are all prison birds, living under the huge wall of Beizhou, maybe only when we find the channel leading to the [Oasis] can we truly see it." 'Freedom'?"

Gu Shen fell silent.

"Your teacher is a great man."

Gao Tian smiled: "I wish him success."

Gu Shen also smiled.

He always felt that Uncle Gao was waiting here not just to say these things.

"Gu Shen..."

The sky was dark.

Gao Tian lit another cigarette.

He let out a long breath and said with a smile: "I know that you and Li Shi are just a 'cooperative relationship', I am not qualified to ask you to do something for Li Shi... But this is not a request, it is a request. I would like to ask you to do me a favor."

Gu Shen was taken aback.

He didn't expect that the word "request..." would come out of Uncle Gao's mouth.

Gao Tian's strength, in Nagano, is one of the most powerful titles.

This is definitely the top combat power of the five great masters.

"if……"

"If one day... I can't take good care of Miss, I hope you can... help."

Gao Tian smoked a cigarette and coughed dully.

He was one of the most powerful titles in Nagano, no matter how destitute he was, he would not ask for help from a junior whose extraordinary strength was less than the third level.

Although Gu Shen is different from the other "Third Order Transcendents" in Nagano.

"Uncle Gao..."

Gu Shen vaguely sensed something was wrong.

Lee, what happened?

How could I suddenly find myself and say these words?

Gao Tian smiled, and said relaxedly: "Don't be nervous... Judging from my age and the degree of physical exertion, if I just become a law-abiding driver, that day will take a long time to come."

He sat gracefully in front of the car, and said slowly: "I am in Nagano, and I have almost no friends. The reason why I stayed in the Li family is to repay the kindness. The owner of the family has a great kindness to me, and I will use my whole life to repay this kindness. Not having friends is a good thing, it means I don't have a lot to worry about ... but it's also a bad thing, if I need help, not having friends means no one will come to help me."

If you just want to protect yourself.

Then when he reaches Uncle Gao's "strength", basically nothing can trap him.

It's just... no matter how hard the armor is, there is also a soft heart hidden.

"Is Patriarch Li's health so bad?" Gu Shen sighed softly.

It's actually not hard to guess.

It's probably the only thing that can make Gao Tian so worried.

"As expected of Master Qianye's disciple." Uncle Gao didn't admit it or deny it, but just dusted off the smoke with a smile: "For the future, how far can you see, can you help me see my ending?"

Without waiting for Gu Shen to answer.

He patted Gu Shen on the shoulder and said with a low laugh, "It's just a joke...don't take it to heart. I know that divination requires a huge price, just like wishing..."

"Uncle Gao, what I can do is limited..."

At this moment, Gu Shen raised his head and said seriously: "But if there is such a day, I will definitely make a move."

Gao Tian was stunned.

He leisurely lit the third cigarette, showing a faint smile.

……

……

On the day Gong Zi left Snow Forbidden City, she didn't notify anyone to see her off.

He just disappeared.

Until the early morning sunshine in the small courtyard of Chunyuguan, there was one person missing.

Everyone realized... Gong Zi had left Nagano.

People in the world always meet each other happily, but parting is difficult.

Perhaps for Gong Zi, getting drunk at the celebration banquet is already a farewell.

In the days that followed, Mu Ya came to Chunyu Temple to drink tea, and asked Gu Shen if she knew the whereabouts of Gong Zi, and she also wanted to leave Nagano to chase after Gong Zi.

It's just that Gu Shen didn't tell her that Gong Zi Yuanxing was going to Beizhou to divorce her...

At this moment, Gu Shen suddenly understood the reason why Master Qianye had been locked in the Qingzuo for so many years.

The world is full of turmoil.

Possessing the ability of "divination" and being able to see the future may not be a good thing.

The more you see, the more trouble you get.

Many times, people in the world want "answers", but the future seen by divination is not equal to that "answer".

Gu Shen began to feel fortunate that he had never really possessed "divination". He saw the wooden knife in the sky above Feng Lai, and wondered how far Senior Sister Nan Jin had practiced, and whether she would go to the Tower of Origin for revenge. The busy Gu Nanfeng would not know how far the old school's confluence has advanced, and the fate of all living beings has not yet converged into a line.

What he sees are living lives, "this moment" that is going on, instead of a line that has been extended to the end, and the ending of countless people is already doomed.

The world always wants to "know".

And "I don't know", sometimes it is a blessing.

The whole of Nagano believed that Gu Shen was the "Heir of Divination".

Praise and praise are easy to get lost. For a while, even Gu Shen almost thought so... But soon he calmed down and reminded himself, don't abuse this status, walk outside, be careful in words and deeds.

So from a certain day, Gu Shen began to really enjoy the status of "spectator" of the successor of divination.

Looking at the hustle and bustle of the courtyard, watching the loneliness of the courtyard.

Watching the winter snow flying, watching the continuous spring rain.

He sees the undercurrent in Nagano, and he just sees it... What he does is very simple and monotonous.

Day after day, there is only meditation.

Shrine Mountain, Clear Tomb, Black Flower, Array Pattern.

Whether you have practiced divination, whether you can see the future... In such days, it is no longer important.

Gu Shen began to truly understand the guardian of the tomb, began to understand the prophet who had never met in the Tower of Origin, and began to understand the rumored "prophet" who can look directly into the future, when you want to have some incredible power.

First, you have to ignore it.

Those who cannot bear the temptation of the future have no right to lift the veil.

The more people who want to be farsighted, the more shortsighted they are.

Time began to pass quickly.

……

……

In the courtyard of Chunyuguan, after the snow melted, the willow trees sprouted new buds and a green shade grew.

Before I knew it, more than three hundred days had passed.

Winter goes and spring comes, and spring goes and winter comes.

The green shade in the yard is withered, the ground is full of fallen leaves, and it is snowing again in Nagano.

This year, Gu Shen finally got the "peace" he longed for.

Outside the small courtyard, there were no more challengers coming to the door.

In Nagano, many geniuses reappeared, and these geniuses set off waves, but these waves have nothing to do with Gu Shen.

This year, few people mentioned his name again.

He is like a drop of water, smoothly integrated into the vast sea of ​​Nagano.

But now when "Gu Shen" is mentioned...many people reacted in a trance, and then realized that there was such a person here.

S-class?Heir of divination?
All of this seems to have passed...become a passing cloud.

What is gratifying is that even if no challenger comes to the door, Shen Li has become a frequent visitor in the small courtyard. The little iron man will come to the courtyard to "drink tea" every now and then. Of course, his real intention is more than that.

He would often "ask" Gu Shen for advice.

Yep...a ​​question, not a challenge.

This is a martial idiot with extremely high talent in cultivation, but his mental power is not stable. Every time he uses [Iron Eater] with all his strength, he will easily fall into a state of loss of control. During this year, Gu Shen used "Breath of Spring" to help Shen Li recuperate Spirit, in addition to this, has completely solved the biggest difficulty in Shen Li's practice career. Shen Li can start the [Gluttony] state without any scruples, without worrying about getting out of control and backlash... This news is enough to make those in the prison The young man was shocked.

Because Shen Li's master, the fourth judge Li Yu, couldn't solve the shortcomings of [Iron Eater], and has always used stupid methods to suppress Shen Li's upper limit of mental power with powerful spiritual seals. .

This is a great extraordinary person who has reached the end of the fourth stage of cultivation.

Gu Shen was able to solve the problem that even Li Yu was helpless?

In fact, it is not difficult to solve this problem.

According to Mr. Gu Qilin's words... [Out of Control] is a manifestation of [Ominous].

So Gu Shen had a wonderful idea.

He let Shen Li open his fists and kicks to attack him, and then when [Iron Eater] went berserk, he used his fingers to absorb Shen Li's furious mental power... In the fiery vision, it was a dark shadow.

As expected.

The "ominousness" that caused Shen Li to lose control was directly taken away by Yu Raozhi!

Of course, before making this attempt... Gu Shen already had a perfect countermeasure. The seed that started the visualization.

This year time.

That seed grew slowly in the ground, took root, and germinated.

Now only a small sign has emerged.

Gu Shen didn't use the extraordinary trials in the deep water area to test his strength, but he has a clear self-awareness, and now his mental power...is already several times stronger than it was a year ago.

Even if you don't use the [Iron Throne], it only takes one trick to hypnotize Shen Li, who has a spiritual defense sealed item.

This is also the reason why Shen Li would go to the courtyard of Chunyuguan to "ask for advice" every once in a while... Not only can he satisfy his itchy desire to fight, but every time he fights, he can finally Fall asleep, after playing, you will find that you have had a good night's sleep.

Now his view of Gu Shen has completely changed in his heart, he is simply a god-man.

Those guys in Snow Forbidden City before always compared Gu Shen and Bai Xiu together... In Shen Li's mind, these two people couldn't be compared at all.

Can Baixiu cure his "out of control"?

Totally impossible!
But Gu Shen can!
Gu Shen in the Spring Rain Temple is simply his second teacher on the road of cultivation.

For Gu Shen, in this peaceful and undisturbed day, being able to see the little iron man Shenli on a regular basis is actually a joyful thing.

He abandoned the extraordinary trials in the deep water area, and he always needed to fight against others in order to roughly assess his strength increase.

The blazing fire is constantly digesting the black flowers on the mountain of the shrine, transforming them into its own power.

As for Gu Shen's evaluation of his combat power... he has already started to use "Shen Li" as the basic unit.

Every time he fights, he is groping for the power of the blazing fire, as well as his true strength.

Get rid of it all.

It is also a win-win thing for Shen Li to heal out of control.

Because of Shen Li's "unluckyness", it may be regarded as a kind of nourishment for Yu Tuanzhi.

At present, Gu Shen still doesn't know what changes will happen after the jade finger absorbs the spiritual force... or there will be no change at all.

But he didn't care, because the power displayed by this object, even if it was only a little bit, was already strong enough.

Can absorb the spiritual power of the throne!

Able to devour the so-called "ominous"!
This is an out-and-out fetish, which is more surprising than "Iron Clothes".

Gu Shen has been waiting... Waiting for the ominous shadow dormant on his body to jump out at a certain moment, and then he uses the jade wrench finger to catch it all!
For a year, very little happened every day.

Can be gathered together, but not many.

Li's [Finding the Lamp] project was carried out very smoothly. Two of the three bronze figurine lamps that were lost outside have been successfully recovered, and three corners of the ancient house of the shrine have been pieced together... Only the last one remains.

Mrs. Li used a lot of manpower and spent a lot of money to spread news around Wuzhou and buy antiquities.

It's all worth it.

If you can get together four bronze figurine lamps, it's nothing at all if you just pay the price of vulgar objects and manpower.

It's just that the "Looking for Lanterns" project is highly confidential, except for the owner of the family and the two sisters at the Temple Mountain, no one else knows... This also ensures the smooth recovery of ancient relics. Why collect those "meaningless" antiques.

In the world of extraordinary people, if it is not a sealed item, it is meaningless.

In addition, Chu Ling successfully "attached" to the body of the baby of the god fetus again in the well water on the top of the shrine.

A very important message can be deduced.

That is the collection of bronze lamps, which indeed has a very strong impetus to the awakening of the divine fetus.

After the three bronze lamps were placed, Chu Ling's consciousness in Linglingyao seemed to have "split".

Or to change another word, figurative.

She would dream often, dreaming that she saw the well, breathed in the well water, and slept soundly.

Accompanied by clusters of fluorescence and the gathering of white flowers, the body is spreading and growing.

However, in the well water, what Gu Shen saw was just an ordinary baby.

Chu Ling's dream was something that Gu Shen was curious about and worried about...

If one day.

The four lamps are really collected... So after Chu Ling is "born", will it be a baby?

With this question in mind, he asked the mausoleum guardian cryptically.

Gu Shen asked for advice, not because he wanted Master Qianye to use divination to peep into the future.

It's because Master Qianye is knowledgeable enough, maybe knows something.

And the answer given by the master is very simple.

"If there really was a divine fetus in this world...then it began to grow 600 years ago. Now, how can it be a baby?"

This sentence is not difficult to understand.

The "baby" form of the divine fetus is in the final analysis only an external manifestation.

Its existence is completely different from that of human beings.

It takes 600 years for a divine fetus to hatch, but it only takes ten months for a human being to be born... If the divine fetus is really a living body, then it is impossible to predict what its growth trajectory will be like.

Maybe it will take 1 years to grow.

Maybe...it was born perfect.

If it is a life conceived from countless "extraordinary sources", if it has its own consciousness, it may also be able to freely choose its own body, whether it is a baby or an old man, it is just a body.

Speaking of this, the mausoleum guard lifted up a corner of his robe, revealing his withered left hand.

Divination, wishing, and the existence of these two types of forbidden techniques fully proved one thing.

Spirit and matter are inseparable and opposite to each other.

When the mind is strong enough, matter is just a vehicle... nothing more.

After getting this answer, Gu Shen let go of the one thing that worried him the most...

He quietly became a spectator.

Over the past year, the number of black flowers on the shrine mountain has become less and less, and the top of the mountain has returned to cleanliness. Seeing that there are more and more pattern drawings on the Qingzuo, the fog is gradually clearing up.

There is nothing wrong with the lives of spectators.
