MTL - Mysterious World, I Have Special Understanding-Chapter 277 Laojun
Chapter 277 Laojun
The tree mentioned on the stele is called the "ancestral tree".
Using the words of the ancestors of the Foreign Object Society to describe it, it is a giant tree as big as it can stretch the sky and the earth, not to mention them, even the Jiaolong is as small as an earthworm compared to it.
How this tree was born, whether it was born in the primordial world, or after the first opening of the world, is impossible to find out.
They only knew that when they got there, the tree already existed there, and so did the majestic palace in heaven.
The ancestors of the Foreign Object Society can be said to have been born ten thousand years ago, and they should be located in the north of Dasheng, where there was a Changdao country at that time, which was the hometown of the ancestors of the Foreign Object Society.
Chang Dao country is very small, sandwiched between two big countries, it seems to be in danger, and it will be destroyed at any time, but it has always existed, and even makes the neighboring big countries feel intimidated.
At that time, Changdao Kingdom was full of Taoist temples, and all the temples enshrined were the old kings in the sky.
They live in a narrow but wide valley, with closed traffic and little contact with the outside world.
But once an outsider enters this country, there is usually awe in their eyes, even strong fear.
With more contact with the outside world, the people of Chang Dao Kingdom gradually understood one thing, that is, the human race outside is different from them. .
Compared to the large number of human races, they are indeed born with power far superior to each other, and their appearance is also somewhat different.
The kings and grandsons of Chang Dao Kingdom basically have long necks, and the longer the neck, the purer the blood, and they call themselves "Tao Rhyme".
Because of their appearance and natural power, the human race outside often fear them like gods.
So they respected Laojun more and more, thinking that Laojun gave them all this.
Many years have passed, and the citizens of Chang Dao Kingdom no longer view themselves as humans, but as preachers of Laojun, and more radically, they regard themselves as gods.
It's just that the power they possess far beyond the human race is not stable. Once this power is out of control, it is prone to distortion.
The appearance of the aberrants is getting farther and farther away from the human race, and their humanity is getting less and less, but it is the norm in Changdao country.
As a result, in a certain year, there was no spring in the world, or in other words, it suddenly fell into the snowy winter forever.
The stele calls this period of time "Eternal Cold".
With the beginning of "Eternal Cold", the world has fallen into an unprecedented catastrophe.
Even the powerful Chang Dao people felt the approach of death.
What made them happy was that compared to the human race in the human world, who could not see any hope and only died in pieces, there were a few amazing and brilliant people in the tribes of Changdao.
Relying on the Taoism left by the old gentleman, these people had an epiphany all the way, almost reaching the realm of ascension in the daylight.
One of them is named Li Mu, because of the highest talent and strength, he naturally became the leader of the entire Chang Dao Kingdom.
He began to look for the traces of Laojun, hoping to reach the legendary God Realm through Laojun's traces, so as to avoid disaster.
There are many miracles left by the old master in the sky in Chang Dao, and Li Mu is worthy of being the most powerful seeker in the past ten thousand years. He just comprehended something from those traces.
After that, he found a huge tree somewhere in the world.
The fruit on that tree is very similar to that of a baby, so it is called "ginseng fruit tree".
And it was in this "ginseng fruit tree" area that Li Mu once again found the traces left by Laojun, and what made them even more delighted was that there was still a way to go to the Heavenly Palace.
After that, Li Mu brought the people of Chang Dao Kingdom to the ginseng fruit tree, and started the long journey to the Heavenly Palace.
Li Mu is only one step away from the rumored daytime ascension, and is naturally farther away from leading everyone to ascend to the world, but he insisted on relying on his talent and experience to complete a feat that is almost "ascension to the world".
On the way to the Heavenly Palace, Chang Daoguo naturally died a lot of people. According to the records on the stone tablet, nine out of ten people died.
The purer the bloodline, the more noble the prince, the smoother the journey to the Heavenly Palace.
At that time, some people in Changdao country guessed that it was because the nobles of the king and grandson had more blood of the old monarch.
They are descendants of Laojun!
Such thoughts undoubtedly make people excited, and that "global ascension" was completed at a considerable price for Chang Dao Kingdom.
They found the Heavenly Palace and were the first to see the tree.
The people of Chang Dao Kingdom were in great shock, it was hard to describe what kind of tree it was.
There is a saying on the stele that the tree stands between the sky and the earth, as if it held up the sky and the earth, and the trunk, branches and leaves are filled with light golden nectar.
The nectar flows through the tree, like human blood.
And under the huge sacred tree, there are magnificent palaces.
The entire body of the palace complex is pitch black, like ink, reflecting each other with the light golden sacred tree, full of solemnity and solemnity.
Whether it is the sacred tree or the tall and exaggerated black palaces, the people of Changdao Kingdom feel small.
They were overjoyed and awed at the same time.
Thinking of seeing the rumored Immortal Buddha, or even the Laojun they worshiped day and night, people in the entire Changdao Kingdom were both excited and afraid.
Because this is indeed the place where gods and Buddhas live, whether it is the steps more than a few feet high, or the heavenly palace building as tall as a mountain, or the lotus flower in the Yaochi as big as a boat, they all feel afraid.
It's like mortals strayed into the kingdom of giants.
The leader Li Mu decided to go to Tiangong to inquire first, and ask the immortal Buddha what he meant before making any plans.
But he soon discovered a shocking and terrifying thing, that is, there is not a single immortal Buddha in the entire Tiangong.
Everything in the Tiangong is readily available, teapots, Yaoqin, fairy beds, files, and even some animals that are completely different from the human world, but there is not a single fairy in it.
It seems that the gods in the Heavenly Palace lived well here, but suddenly left or disappeared for some reason.
So the people of the entire Chang Dao Kingdom faced a heavenly palace without immortals and Buddhas.
The Immortal Buddha is not there, so they naturally choose to go in first, after all, there is a lot of threat outside the Tiangong.
At the beginning, they were very restrained, fearing that the gods and Buddhas would return and blame them, so they only moved in the corner of Tiangong.
And over time, this vigilance has become more and more blurred.
Changdao people are full of longing for everything in the Heavenly Palace, so they almost agreed to enter the depths of the Heavenly Palace.
There, they read the dossiers left by countless immortals and Buddhas, caressed the instruments of countless immortals and Buddhas, and ate the nectar left by immortals and Buddhas. For a while, they seemed to be the masters of this heavenly palace.
As a result, the people of Chang Dao Kingdom were quickly divided into different classes.
Talented like Li Mu, he quickly comprehended many magical classics left by immortals and Buddhas, almost immortal.
Those with less talent also gained a long lifespan and acquired powerful supernatural powers.
More people can't comprehend so much, relying on the fine nectar fairy liquid, the rich spiritual energy in the Tiangong, and gained a long lifespan.
Those who are worse will naturally grow old and die.
Because the vast majority of Changdao people have a lifespan that far exceeds that of the past, and in order to make up for the number of people who died before, the entire country began to give birth on a large scale.
As the population increases, those with less talent will naturally become the bottom, and those with higher talent will naturally become those in power.
If there are levels, there will naturally be fights. The misery of the bottom people in the Heavenly Palace is even worse than that of the bottom mortals in the world.
The relatively long life is not a gift to them, but a curse.
Until one day, Li Mu, who had not been able to retreat for a long time, came out of the alchemy room deep in the Heavenly Palace and began to call himself "Laojun".
More and more people in power are beginning to consecrate gods and make themselves gods.
Since the Immortal Buddha is no longer around, and these people have inherited their mantle from those classics and cheats, there is nothing wrong with calling themselves gods.
According to the records on the stele, the appearance of Li Mu, who called himself "Laojun" at that time, had undergone tremendous changes.
He became extraordinarily tall, with a high forehead, hair like kobres grass, and a misty fairy mist wrapped around his body.
The huge palace for him before has become very suitable.
They have already adapted to the fact that they are the masters of the Heavenly Palace, and they are immortals and Buddhas.
Many of them are not used to this style of painting. Laojun is extremely noble in their hearts and cannot be desecrated. They are very angry that Li Mu wants to replace Laojun.
They had conflicts with Li Mu and were suppressed. Among them was a leader named "Wang Sanqing", who was second only to Li Mu in talent.
Finally, he left the Heavenly Palace with a group of people and returned to the world.
They think that the real Laojun will return sooner or later, so that things like Li Mu who forget their roots will never be reborn.
When Wang Sanqing returned to the human world, the human world had recovered from the catastrophe and revived with vitality.
Wang Sanqing and his party can be said to be the origin of the Foreign Object Society.
The reason why they call themselves "foreign objects" is not only to distinguish them from the false immortals and Buddhas in the Heavenly Palace, but also because they found many foreign objects in the human world.
Wang Sanqing and his party who returned to the human world did not stop worshiping Laojun, nor did they stop searching for the real Laojun.
During this process, they discovered a lot of things left by Laojun in the world.
These things have all kinds of abilities, some are magical, some are weird, some are ecstatic, and some are terrifying, but they all have the same characteristic, that is, they are usually engraved with "foreign objects" Two words.
They think that Laojun created these foreign objects, and they are also Laojun's handwriting, so they have the self-proclaimed "foreign objects", and later the so-called "foreign objects society".
Speaking of this, the origin of the Foreign Object Society finally has a context.
Ji Que couldn't help but said: "No wonder that long-necked old lady is so indifferent and contemptuous of the gods in the sky. It turns out that they are just replacements."
"Ping replacement?" Ning Hongyu frowned.
"Cheap fakes." Ji Que explained.
Chen Laoshi is the oldest and most experienced here. He claims to have traveled more bridges than Ji Que and the others. He has eaten more salt than Ji Que and the others. He has never seen anything in the world. .
But I have never seen the ins and outs of the Foreign Object Society and the Tiangong Immortal Buddha.
His wide knowledge refers to the human world, where can he manage things outside the human world.
So he couldn't help frowning and said: "So the immortals and Buddhas enshrined in the world today are all counterfeit goods that occupy the magpie's nest?"
Ning Hongyu nodded and said, "It's very possible, after all, so much time has passed."
"Those rumored evil deeds by immortals and Buddhas do not seem to be groundless. Judging from the records on these stone tablets, the group of 'immortals' in the sky are very greedy."
"After all, the foreign bodies in the foreign body society are also considered to be of the same race as them. The fight between the two sides can be so fierce, it can be seen that they are not good."
After hearing Ning Hongyu's story, Ji Que and the others finally began to understand why the gods in the sky were also killed.
The talents of those people from Chang Dao Kingdom are really terrifyingly high, but they are not true gods after all, they just become similar to immortal Buddhas by relying on everything left by immortal Buddhas in the Heavenly Palace.
The fairy fruit nectar can make them live longer, and the magical magic of the gods can make them have terrible supernatural powers. Those who are as strong as plum wood can even pass through the gods and gain longevity, but they inevitably have mistakes in their comprehension.
Just like the practice in the world, without the guidance of the master, it is easy to go astray.
Such "immortals" naturally have many disadvantages and flaws. For example, the huge corpse of the immortal Buddha under them probably only mastered part of the power of gigantism, but did not possess relatively perfect supernatural powers, so they were attacked by foreign objects. The foreign body seized the opportunity to kill, and then turned into this weird little world.
It was already late at night, and the three of them chatted about the immortal Buddha and the origin of the immortal Buddha in this environment, and there was always an illusion that it was unreal, like in a dream.
Involuntarily, Ji Que and Ning Hongyu glanced at each other and thought of something.
That is Taisui Ding, and the story of "the old king made man" related to Taisui Ding.
Ning Hongyu frowned and said, "The people of Changdao Kingdom believe in Laojun, and have possessed a power far superior to that of human beings since birth. Many of them can't even control this power, and then distort and become strange. Then they might be Laojun. The man you created?"
Ji Que said: "Yes, this matter is very possible, and some clues have been opened up."
In their experiences in the world, they encountered Tai Sui Ding and ginseng fruit trees more than once.
They have been unable to see through these things, like a mysterious fog, no matter how they look at them, they can't see through.
And through the content on this stone tablet, they learned a general idea.
Moreover, one thing was mentioned repeatedly on the stele, that is, the reason why the people of Changdao Kingdom were able to go to the Heavenly Palace from the ginseng fruit tree was because the ginseng fruit tree was actually a branch of the "ancestral tree" in the sky.
The branch that Laojun brought to the world.
Or to put it another way, Laojun once cut off a branch of an ancestral tree, and planted it in the world with his own bizarre ideas and abilities.
In the human world, Laojun naturally did a lot of things to this branch, and gradually he planted this mysterious and huge ginseng fruit tree.
Since then, Ji Que has even been able to deduce some of the character of the original old gentleman.
It's like a mad scientist with immense power and intelligence.
Yes, Mad Scientist.
He not only created creatures like Changdao people, transplanted ginseng fruit trees from the sky, but also left many "foreign objects" in the world.
People from Chang Dao Kingdom, ginseng fruit trees, or foreign objects left in the world can be said to be his experimental products.
If He wanted to, he would even experiment with the whole world.
Thinking of this, Ji Que couldn't help feeling a chill in his heart.
