Chapter 54 The Tree of Life

The Liufeng forest in the morning light is like a roll of green carpet from under the big tree to the distance. Slowly, people came out to do activities, and more and more people came out. Only then did Yan Qi feel that he was still in the world of fireworks. He asked Luo Far, "How long have you lived here?"

Luo Yuan was looking at a piece of wood, probably thinking about how to deal with it better, "It's been a long time."

"not boring?"

"Fortunately."

Yan Qi asked: "If you die, will the prison disappear?"

"meeting."

Yan Qi asked again: "If you leave here, will the prison still function normally?"

Luo Yuan said, "It depends on the distance."

"Why would you want to open a prison?"

Luo Yuan smiled, "For world peace?"

"I've heard this saying before." Yan Qi said, "Do you know the Dragon King?"

Luo Yuan put down the wooden board in his hand and went to make tea again, "I know him, but I have never dealt with him. What? He said that too?"

"Yes, but he is asking me if my ideal is to maintain world peace. He is not normal. By the way, has he come to Liufeng Forest?"

Luo Yuan said: "I didn't pay attention. What's the matter?"

"There are a lot of people in Liufeng Forest recently, didn't you notice?"

"Criminals don't seem to be growing significantly."

"It's not a criminal, it's someone who came to hunt for treasure, the treasure of the Dragon King, I don't know what that person wants to do."

Luo Yuan followed Yan Qi's words and asked, "What treasures are there in Liufeng Forest?"

"A painting, I heard it's called the Tree of Life, I don't know if someone picked up the name randomly." Yan Qi drew a sketch of the tree with a pen and paper on the table, "It looks like a tree like this. It's the treasure buried under the tree."

Luo Yuan said, "Is there such a tree in Liufeng Forest?"

"I don't know. Isn't that what you know best?"

Luo Yuan shook his head slightly, "How do I know what all the trees here look like? And the trees are growing all the time. Drawing them is like asking for a sword. How can I find them?"

"Yeah, I think it may be a dead tree, the kind that is so strong that it won't fall down after being dead for 3000 years."

Luo Yuan smiled, "Don't think about these trivial things, it's a matter of practicing your abilities."

"Then you are not worried?"

"what?"

"There are a lot of people. Maybe some people want to escape from prison, some people want to rob prison, some people deliberately create chaos, and some people fish in troubled waters..."

Luo Yuan said: "There is the Non-Human Race United Association here, so it can't be messed up."

Yan Qi asked: "Are you familiar with them?"

"I know them well, they don't know me."

"Oh, you followed them secretly." Yan Qi blinked and smiled meaningfully.

Luo Yuan didn't seem to see his expression, "From the window on your right, the group of gray buildings is the headquarters of the Non-Human Race United Association."

"Huh?" Yan Qi ran to the window to look, "Is this the first district? And you've been living on top of them?"

"What's the problem?"

"No..." Yan Qi suddenly realized, "No wonder there are such lanterns hanging on this tree. In fact, this tree is a famous scenic spot or mascot of Liufeng Forest, right?"

Luo Yuan said: "I transplanted this tree from another place."

"From where? Did you steal someone's tree?"

Luo Yuan said: "I planted it when I was a child."

"May I ask how old the tree is?"

"What's the point?" Luo Yuan said, "Some powerful Luo Yin tribe can control the growth time of creatures. It may only take one night to grow into what it is now. Just like you, you have not awakened until now."

"I was accidental." Yan Qi said with a smile: "Actually, I can go back and see how long the tree has grown."

"Yes, but be careful, don't get lost in time and space."

Yan Qi asked: "What's wrong with getting lost? Is it lost?"

Luo Yuan said: "Lost means missing. There are many specific situations. All kinds of accidents will happen, usually because of impaired or out-of-control abilities, or mental problems, or even accidental death - but no one knows. .”

Yan Qi thought for a while, "What's the difference between losing control of your ability and having a problem with your mental state?"

Luo Yuan said: "It's almost the difference between neurosis and mental illness. The former is a problem with our body, while the latter is a problem with our thinking."

Yan Qi asked in a low voice, "Crazy?"

"No, it's a certainty: nothing makes sense. Then anything can happen next."

Yan Qi was stunned for a moment, "How could it be?"

Luo Yuan drank tea slowly, "Why not?"

"There's a lot to do."

Luo Yuan said: "Under the circumstances that it is not a problem for us to get everything?"

Yan Qi frowned, "There are always many things that can make people happy, and these things are meaningful."

"Not everyone is happy, or not everyone understands the emotion of happiness, and the pain is the same." Luo Yuan said, "It's like you are watching the life of a group of ants, you can feel them your emotions?"

"but……"

Luo Yuan said: "You may not be used to thinking this way, but many creatures are like this to the Luo Yin tribe."

Yan Qi said: "What you're talking about is just indifference, it has nothing to do with whether we are Luo Yin. Among humans, some humans are also very indifferent to their own kind. They are not Luo Yin."

"Okay, even if excessive indifference is one of the reasons for being lost." Luo Yuan said, "But in the final analysis, it is still the point that the Luo Yin people will agree with in the end: some things are meaningless. For a long time, in the end, you will not care about anything. "

"I won't."

"You knew there would be such a day." Luo Yuan said, "The curse of the Luo Yin tribe: We gain everything, and we will lose everything."

Yan Qi bit his lower lip, and then suddenly realized that he was surrounded by Luo Yuan, "No, don't we have an anchor, you said that our other half of the soul can prevent us from this problem."

Luo Yuan smiled slightly, "The other half of the soul, that's a good idea."

Yan Qi laughed and said, "This way you won't get lost, right?"

"Getting lost is a lifelong risk for the Luo Yin people, but it's not the mainstream, just like not all human beings will suffer from terminal illness." Luo Yuan said, "People who have the other half of their souls will not get lost, because the end waiting for them is death."

Yan Qi said indifferently: "No matter how long life is, it will always be dead."

Luo Yuan said: "Sometimes, the death of the Luo Yin tribe can be very cruel..." He drank tea, and then changed the subject, "Thinking too much is also one of the reasons for getting lost. So, practice your abilities more, And don't think too much about it."

Seeing that Luo Yuan really didn't want to chat anymore, Yan Qi responded, "Okay, I'll practice, then help me to see." He released his vines and let them circle around the room, Chasing each other is like a kitten chasing its own tail.

Luo Yuan looked at it for a while, and then said: "There is progress." It seems that Yan Qi has released many vines, but in fact there is only one. It is chasing itself in time, and he can't fully see it with his ability. Only afterimages of light spread all over the room can be seen.

Yan Qi laughed and said, "It's you who taught me well." He didn't understand many things at first, but Luo Yuan was willing to tell him and he was patient and kind.

Luo Yuan said: "If someone else tells you, you can learn it quickly. Even if no one teaches you, in a few years, you will be able to find out the experience yourself."

Yan Qi said: "It's been too long, it's better to learn it earlier." The teapot on the table suddenly started to spray water automatically, and an empty tea cup went to catch it, and then the tea cup disappeared from the table and appeared in Yan Qi's hand, Yan Qi raised his hand to drink the tea, then the teacup disappeared from his hand and reappeared on the table.

Luo Yuan smiled, "Well done." A few hours ago, Yan Qi tossed and tossed for half an hour when sending the letter to his teacher. After a few hours, he was able to perfectly control the object to travel through space. "In terms of space, I think you should have no problem. However, in many cases, you still have to rely on rich experience. In fact, it is also tantamount to relying on feeling. Practice makes perfect. When you are proficient enough to use your ability and become your instinct, you will discover our ability. It can be used to solve any problem."

Yan Qi said, "What if I want to find Qin Mo?"

Luo Yuan said, "Do you have any of his things on you?"

Yan Qi took out the wallet, and took out a round, squashed dried acacia flower from the interlayer, "He picked it before."

Luo Yuan said: "Let time go backwards, you follow that flower and get as close to it as possible."

"Oh." Yan Qi tried to turn back the time of the flower, he was half a second behind the flower, followed behind it, and then he saw the flower like a bystander watching a movie backwards Returning his wallet, returning the wallet to his pocket... Yan Qi paused, "It's weird, like I'm spying on myself, no, I'd better not do this, or it will cause a psychological shadow on myself." No matter what he does in the future, he must first think about whether some future self is staring at him?And maybe that himself brought Qin Mo with him?It would be too bad if I was doing something unsightly, so I still make a rule that I never look at my past self.

Luo Yuan said, "If you don't want to stare at yourself, you can quickly rewind time to the moment when Qin Mo and this flower were together, and then change your tracking object to Qin Mo, fast forward time, and let time go back Now, then you'll know where he is now."

Yan Qi shook his head, "Forget it, I can endure it for a while longer."

Luo Yuan smiled and said nothing.

Yan Qi said, "Is the acacia our family flower?"

Luo Yuan said: "There is no such thing as clan flower."

"Then does it have any special meaning to us?"

Luo Yuan said, "Nothing special." Yan Qi immediately put disappointment on his face.Luo Yuan smiled, "It's the same as the meaning of roses to human beings."

Yan Qi smiled, "What a coincidence, the first time Qin Mo sent me flowers was acacia."

Luo Yuan said: "The preference for this kind of flower is probably engraved in our genes." He shook his head slightly, "We won't be bothered by the acacias all over the mountains and plains."

Yan Qi said: "I have been to a place where there is a boundless sea of ​​acacia flowers. I have been there twice, but I came back before I figured out where it is." ocean.

Luo Yuan looked at him thoughtfully, "Next time you can see where it is."

Yan Qi nodded.
