Chapter 421: Legacy
In this untouched far north, there is a giant tower in the sky that can overlook the entire continent, and an indescribable sense of intrigue fills the brain.
Such a thing would never be used to see the landscape, I am afraid that this freewheeling means of observation is for some purpose.
Eve looked at Tian Xian and Ling's surprised expressions with great satisfaction, and continued: "This is indeed a magical place, but at present, I can only drive such a force, if this tower wants to fully play the role of the tower, I'm afraid I can't do it in my life, after all, I am the only one here." β
"If you two are willing to stay, then perhaps in our lifetime we will be able to restore the full power of this tower. β
"I'm not going to stay here. Ling flatly refused.
"What about you?" said Eve, looking hopefully.
Tian Xian looked at Eve's gaze, that kind of gentleness, as if he could smell the sweet taste, and nodded: "If Sister Eve is willing, I will stay." β
Ling's eyes widened, "You...... What do you say?"
Eve covered her mouth and smiled, "Little fool, it seems that you are not stupid, knowing that my sister is reluctant to leave you here." β
Tian Xian also smiled, "I think that a mother who is willing to spend her life alone in this place for the sake of her daughter will never let another daughter die alone with her." β
Ling couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard this.
Eve pursed her lips, looked at Tianxian with a little curiosity, and sneered, "It seems that you are not only not stupid, but also quite smart, Xue must have been deceived by you, I think she should not believe in humans at all." β
"Hmm...... There aren't many places to cheat. β
Eve suddenly smiled and bent over, "You little ghost, what a ......"
Touch your nose every day. "Sister Eve, we are here to rescue you this time, but the situation seems to be a bit unexpected, you seem to have some other reasons for coming here, even if we can leave. Won't you go either?"
Eve suppressed her laughter, raised her beautiful eyebrows slightly, and said helplessly: "Yes, the reason why I came here is that on the one hand, I have indeed broken my oath, and more importantly, I have been chosen as the guardian of this generation, this tower has been abandoned for many years, and I need to restart many of its facilities." β
Tian Xian asked strangely, "Speaking of guardians...... The tower was empty. The gods have fallen, so what do you have to protect?"
Eve smiled mysteriously, "Little one, this is the secret of our Tianyan Clan. β
"But I'm not half of the Tianyan Clan?" Tianxian stretched out his hand and pulled Ling Lai, "Look, you have married my two daughters to me, I should be counted as two-thirds of the Tianyan Clan." β
Ling's face turned red suddenly, and he immediately pushed Tianxian away. "I ...... I didn't promise, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"Still shy. Sooner or later, Sister Eve, you see how good our relationship is. Tian Xian was cheeky and said without changing his face.
"Really!" Eve looked at Tian Xian and Ling happily, "Hmm...... Speaking of which, you are not exactly an outsider, and this time you are bent on saving your sister. Hmm~~ Do I want to tell you some secrets again?"
"Of course, if there is a secret, who does the son-in-law want to sΓΉ?"
Eve laughed and trembled, "You little villain, you are so flamboyant, no wonder Snow likes you." β
"So-so. "Tian Xian does not mean humble at all," in fact, I am a very honest and good person. β
Ling couldn't help but glance sideways at Tianxian. "You're a guy with a mouth full of gibberish, and you're an honest good guy?"
Tian Xian smiled, "A guy who is full of nonsense may not be an honest and good person." β
"Yes......" Eve sighed, "a guy who is full of nonsense is not necessarily not an honest and good person, Shiro always says something I don't understand, but he is an honest and good person." β
Tian Xian and Ling couldn't answer for a while, the Bai in Eve's mouth, Xue's biological father, his QiΔ seemed to be covered with a veil of mystery, and until now Tian Xian didn't know much about this person.
Eve smiled slightly, looked at Tianxian and said: "Little fool, you brought the snow back to the far north, and took the risk to save your sister, although you like to talk nonsense, but you are indeed a good person, human...... Really a good race. β
After a little thought, looking at Tianxian with a smile, Eve finally seemed to have made a decision, showing a mysterious expression, "Okay, since you are a good eye in two-thirds of the city, then my sister will tell you some more secrets." β
Very happily, he pulled Tian Xian and Ling to the stone tablet, and stroked the carvings on it, Eve finally had a somewhat stern expression, "These carvings, the legend is left by the gods, touch them." β
Ling bluntly said that he didn't want to touch these things, but he touched them, but he didn't feel anything strange.
"What you touch there is an engraving to check the situation in various places~" Eve reminded Tian Xian with a smile.
Subconsciously glanced out the window, it was already pitch black, night fell, Tian Xian retracted his hand.
Eve patted the stone pillar: "Actually, the Hangu Pagoda is useless, what is really useful is this stone pillar, the Hangu Pagoda is just built around this stone pillar, which is more convenient for the use of stone monuments." β
"Peeping into the world is just one of the functions of this stele, this stele has many incredible powers, most of which we can't understand now, but after the fall of the gods, this stele has been given a new mission, which is why our Tianyan clan has guardians left here. β
Ling immediately pricked up his ears.
Tianxian frowned, and a thought suddenly surged in his heart, and he couldn't help blurting out, "Is this a beacon?"
Ling suddenly looked at Tian Xian strangely, and Eve was taken aback, her eyes were full of surprise, "You know?
Judging from Eve's reaction, Tian Xian has confirmed the guess in his heart, this Cold Ancient Tower, I am afraid that a very important role is the same as the Thunder Ancient City Divine Domain.
That's a beacon!
A beacon left behind by the gods after they disappeared from this world, just as Norma said, who is still in the Domain, this place is the mark of the portal like the giant war anchor!
If that is the case, there must be a door around here! something almost identical to the one that Norma had crossed in the Divine Domain. Connected to an unknown world that may ...... The world of the gods!
The door Tianxian couldn't help frowning and thinking, there must be a passage connecting to other places near here, just like a wormhole, this is how Grandma Kong should have sent Eve here, so if Grandma Kong's use of this door. Is there something to do with the door left by the gods marked by this beacon?
Looking at Eve, Tian Xian said casually: "Of course I guessed." β
"Nonsense!" Eve glared, "you just said you were an honest man!"
"A guy who is full of nonsense may also be an honest and good person, isn't that what Sister Eve said?"
For the first time, Eve frowned seriously and looked at Tianxian again, "Little one, you seem to know something. But you shouldn't have known these things......"
"Hmm...... I have an evil eye!" Tian Xian immediately brought the evil eye out to save the scene, "It told me a lot of secrets of this world. β
"Evil Eye Demon Sword...... Eve nodded, "That kind of ancient evil spirit may indeed know a lot of things, eh? What about your Evil Eye Demon Sword?"
Tianxian pointed out the window, "It's still stuck in the inner barrier, I don't know if Sister Eve can help me get it back." β
Eve had a headache, "If you want to control the prohibition outside." That's going to take a lot of time. β
Tian Xian is not in a hurry, "Then let's find another way." Sister Eve, what else do you have to sue us? β
"Little villain, if you don't answer me seriously, you want to know more secrets!" Eve suddenly remembered that she seemed to have been distorted by the day.
Tianxian just smirked.
Eve also had no choice but to say: "Here, it is indeed a beacon, but this is an important message left by the gods believed in by the Tianyan clan before the fall, as a believer in the gods. One of our very important tasks is to keep this ancient tower alive and ensure that the power of this stone pillar is constantly stimulated, and for many years, no guardian has been the most important task. The same is true. β
Ling blinked, "Why...... Feel like you're lighting a lamp and waiting for something to come back?"
"Indeed......" Eve seemed to know more about this meaning, "it's like waiting for something to return, but for thousands of years, nothing has happened, but a person here is a little lonely, it is better to do something according to Grandma Kong, so that time will pass much faster." β
"Those gods...... Will it reappear?" Ling suddenly asked.
Eve smiled, "Who knows? But I don't believe they'll show up." β
Tian Xian was very surprised by this answer, "Why?"
"It's been a thousand years. Eve shook her head, "Those gods have disappeared for a thousand years, their traces are constantly disappearing, even if there are stigmata in ZΓ i, their influence is constantly weakening, they have not appeared again for a thousand years, so will they appear in the next thousand years? β
Saying that, Eve looked at Tian Xian and Ling with a sweet smile, "But even so, it makes sense for me to stay here, although you are very reckless to come here, but it is good to see you like this." β
Naturally, Eve came here as a chosen one to fulfill her promise to her people, but she was willing to be alone here until she died without returning, for the sake of Xue and Ling, and for her own daughter.
The definition of mother is very vague for Tian Xian, the impression of the mother is such a gentle and moving painting hanging in the ancestral hall, Eve's choice, Tian Xian can not fully understand that feeling, but inexplicably, Tian Xian feels very moved, very yearning......
"Can't you really leave?"
"Well, if you get out of here, Grandma Sora will know. Eve's smile was still sweet, "I want to protect my daughter...... So as a daughter, I also hope to do something for my mother. β
Tianxian wanted to ask again, but when he heard this sentence, he couldn't help but be a little speechless, and the concern of blood relationship could not be explained clearly with reason in many cases.
"But you don't have to worry!" Eve nodded calmly, "If I'm here, Grandma Kong will come back in a while, and you can follow her back." β
"I guess I'll be skinned when I go back. Ling muttered.
"Hmm...... That's a pretty good result. Eve seems to know a lot about her mother's personality.
Tianxian frowned and said nothing, he came here with all his hard work, but he didn't have to wait for Grandma Kong to bring him back. Wouldn't all the previous efforts be a joke?
When Xue wakes up, how can he explain what happened to Eve? But now there is no reason to persuade Eve to leave, it is even more inappropriate to use force, she has a good reason to stay here now, no matter what method is used to save her, it is not appropriate to save her, but she must not be left alone here again.
"Little fool. What are you thinking?" Ling suddenly reached out and poked Tian Xian's forehead, and chuckled, "At a young age, he looks like he is scheming. β
Tian Xian touched his head and asked, "I'm wondering, do these mysterious carvings represent some knowledge and secrets of the gods?"
Eve was a little surprised that Tianxian would suddenly ask this, nodded and replied, "It's not entirely true, but it's pretty much the same." The inscription on this pillar is said to have been carved by the gods themselves, and it naturally records the knowledge of the gods, so it is also a secret to us, right?"
"Sister Eve, can you read it?"
Eve smirked, "Of course, as a Guardian, I will be given some convenience to decipher these undecipherable engravings on a certain scale. This is also my means of reactivating the various facilities of the Hangu Tower. β
Tianxian's eyes lit up, "Can you teach me that?"
Eve and Ling were stunned.
"Hey. This is the biggest secret of our Tianyan Clan. Ling couldn't help but interject, "It's too blatant for you to steal the knowledge of the gods like this, right?"
Tianxian blinked, "I'm also a Tianyan clan, you should understand!"
Ling was immediately annoyed: "I don't understand! You bastard has nothing to do with me!
"I don't think there must be any rules for the Tianyan Clan. The meaning of the engraving here cannot be taught to others, right, Sister Eve?" asked Tian Xian very confidently.
Eve was a little embarrassed by the question, "Speaking of which, there is really no such rule, after all...... There is only one Guardian at a time. And as long as you enter here, you will never leave, and you will not have the opportunity to teach others at all, but ......"
"That's okay!" Tian Xian unceremoniously concluded.
"Hmm......" Eve thought distressedly, this seemed wrong in principle, but in the rules of the clan, there really was no such one.
"Little fool, but even if I want to teach you, you can't learn it, these things are a kind of knowledge that is completely different from the knowledge of our world, and even something that is completely contrary to our common sense, if you want to learn it then it will take a long time to get used to, but you will leave soon, I don't think you can get anything useful from here. β
Tian Xian smiled, "Perhaps, I am much smarter than Sister Eve thinks, I can integrate many things, and this knowledge may not be a problem." β
Eve was a little helpless when she said, "If you really want to learn, it's not impossible, I can teach you the easiest and easiest things to understand first, but if you can't understand these things, you have to give up this idea, understand?"
"Of course!" Tianxian nodded without hesitation.
As the three of them return to Eve's room, Eve takes a book out of a strange cabinet in a certain tower, which looks young unlike the other books on the shelves that are so old that they can be broken at the touch of a touch.
Dinner was some simple dry food heavy products, and it was clear that Eve didn't have a lot of food here, and of course the three of them didn't mind that.
After dinner, the strange teaching began.
Eve is the main teacher, and Tian Xian is a diligent and studious student, Ling's words...... It's an audit.
This is the most superficial and simple knowledge, to put it bluntly, it is the gods' understanding of this world that is completely different from that of human beings, and in the eyes of the gods, this world is a different kind of knowledge, a kind of knowledge that observes the most original composition of this world at a higher level.
This qiΔ is contrary to human cognition of the world.
Almost everyone will scoff at the fact that if someone tells you that ice can burn into flames and flames can re-solidify into ice, it is only natural in the eyes of the gods.
Ling listened curiously on the side, did he look at the Yan SΓΉ Tian Xian, and his stomach was full of helplessness, because Eve's words were almost incomprehensible, and they were knowledge that could only be understood by understanding another level of this world.
There were only twenty minutes of explanation-like explanation, and then Eve stopped and asked three questions directly to Tian Xian, Ling thought that this was the end of this farce, but he didn't expect Tian Xian to give three answers immediately.
Although both the question and the answer were inexplicable, Ling read information from Eve's expression that she could barely believe.
Tian Xian's answer was completely correct.
"Gods, are humans already so powerful?" Eve couldn't believe it, combing through Tianxian's answer over and over again, it was simply flawless.
"It's Sister Eve, you taught well. Tian Xian smiled, "I just understood." β
Tian Xian laughed secretly, these things are indeed difficult to understand, but at that time, it was based on the thinking of ordinary people, since leaving the God Domain, Triangle and Gollum have been instilling a lot of strange knowledge and ideas into Tian Xian, although Tian Xian is not very interested in this, but after a long time, he naturally understands it.
What Eve is talking about is exactly the entry-level knowledge that Sanjia and Gollum tell, and Tianxian has long memorized it.
"Can you ...... Understand?" Ling's eyes were extremely strange, "You are really strange!"
Eve was a little strange and a little unwilling, and quickly found new content in that ancient book to tell Tianxian about it.
Tian Xian was very excited, except for Triangle and Gollum, he finally got the other gods heritage.
"I think we can discuss this question, I have another idea of my own!" to Eve's other question half an hour later, Tian Xian smiled triumphantly-
Tomorrow things will be dealt with, I'm really sleepy today, and I won't make up for it (to be continued......)
