Chapter 1436: The Otherworld (151)
A small river meandered through the valley, the river was murmuring, the banks of the river were rocky, and there seemed to be many fruit trees of all kinds by the river, and the fruits on the trees were of various colors, some were yellow, some were red, and some were black, and the black fruits were overlapping, a bit like grapes hanging on vines.
"It's dangerous. Pang Xiaonan couldn't help but sigh, this is the most beautiful scenery he has seen since he entered New Bloss, not only because there are all kinds of beautiful scenery here, but also because the environment here makes people feel very calm.
At this time, he looked across the valley and was surprised to find a huge palace on the opposite hill.
The temple looks extremely sacred under the sunlight, looking at the architectural style, Pang Xiaonan can't remember the specific age, the temple is like a collection of ancient architectural styles of China and ancient civilizations in the West, how to look at how mysterious.
"Wow, have you come to the world of mythology?" Pang Xiaonan faintly felt that in this temple, the big boss of New Bross should live.
Since entering New Bloss, this is the first time Pang Xiaonan has seen the existence of a man-made building, even if it is not built by people, then this temple must also contain some special meaning, otherwise why spend a lot of effort to build such a thing, isn't it better to live in a primitive cave?
Just as Pang Xiaonan was wandering in the sky and guessing the purpose of the temple, Pang Xiaonan heard a familiar cry overhead, which was the chirping of a big bird when he was fighting with a yak rhinoceros.
Pang Xiaonan looked into the sky, and it was still that familiar figure, the big bird with colorful feathers was flying over the valley and hovering above Pang Xiaonan's head.
Pang Xiaonan covered his eyes with his right hand, trying to see the big bird's appearance clearly, but the big bird swooped down towards Pang Xiaonan.
"Not good. Pang Xiaonan instinctively flashed to the side, and a flying knife was already in the palm of his hand.
And the big bird didn't mean to attack, but folded its wings, chirped, and stopped steadily beside Pang Xiaonan.
Pang Xiaonan carefully looked at the appearance of the big bird, and saw that it was standing on the ground, about 2 meters high, that is, even if it squatted on the ground, it was taller than an adult, with gorgeous plumage, a golden silk feather crown on its head, and its upper body was golden yellow except for the dark green on its upper back. The color of the feathers of the whole body sets off each other, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple, and it is dazzling.
Suddenly, the big bird spoke: "Human, you are so powerful that you can come here. ”
Pang Xiaonan looked carefully, and like Shenlong, the big bird did not speak.
"I would like to ask, are you a phoenix?" Pang Xiaonan asked cautiously.
"You can call me that, but I have many names, all of which you humans have taken, such as Phoenix, Flamingo, Divine Bird, Dan Bird, Rui Bird, and so on. The phoenix stood on the hillside, looking at the palace opposite, but not looking at Pang Xiaonan.
"Wow, I really saw the phoenix!" Pang Xiaonan shouted excitedly, "I also saw the dragon before, I want to ask, what is the relationship between the two of you?"
Pang Xiaonan felt extremely honored to be able to see the two supreme divine beasts in mythology at the same time, but he was a little sentimental, because Wu Yongqiang couldn't see the phoenix with his own eyes, if Wu Yongqiang also saw it, he would be blinded when he died, Pang Xiaonan thought so in his heart.
"The two of us, according to you, are colleagues. The phoenix still stood motionless.
"Colleague?" Pang Xiaonan suddenly understood, both dragons and phoenixes serve the big boss, "Then Brother Shenlong is in charge of climate change, so what is your responsibility?"
"My job is to make rounds and maintain order. Phoenix turned his head and looked at Pang Xiaonan.
"So, you're the sheriff here, the policeman. Pang Xiaonan was stared at by the phoenix's eyes, and felt that he was heroic, and he was a little afraid to look at it directly.
"Suffice it to say that, according to your human understanding, I also serve as a commander, minister of defense, etc. The phoenix took another step towards Pang Xiaonan, and this time Pang Xiaonan did not dodge.
Pang Xiaonan has now relaxed his heart, since the phoenix did not harm him for the first time, then it definitely did not come for his life.
"I see, you're the military commander of this new Bloss. Pang Xiaonan suddenly understood something, "Did you arrange all the attacks we encountered before that?"
"No, I'm not idle to that extent, you entered our defense line, I just issued a simple order, try to prevent you from going deeper, as for how the people below carry it out, I don't care. "It seems that the phoenix has a very high level and disdains such a trivial matter.
"You mean, you have a lot of managers under you. Pang Xiaonan probably guessed that Phoenix, as the military chief, must have various branches below, such as the commander of the navy, the commander of the army, the commander of the air force, and the like.
"It's not a manager, all actions are spontaneous, but if you have to understand it this way, it's true that I have people in charge of defense, but our management is relatively flat. "It seems that Phoenix's expression ability and Pang Xiaonan's communication are not a little hindered, and it is a higher level of civilization in the end.
"Don't you feel guilty about watching our people die?" Pang Xiaonan was still a little angry about Wu Yongqiang's death, at that time, the phoenix was obviously in the sky, as long as it gave an order, those yak rhinoceros would definitely stop attacking, but it just watched the yak rhinoceros army trample on Wu Yongqiang's body wantonly.
"Your human world is also the survival of the fittest, and it is the same with us. People who have no ability can only die, and heaven and earth are unkind to all things as dogs, this is the truth summarized by you human beings, you human beings are dogs for us, and it is not a pity to die. Phoenix's tone was flat, without any emotion.
Pang Xiaonan knew that he couldn't get this truth back anywhere, because it was their Bulos operation that disturbed all kinds of creatures on New Bulos Island, and they also killed many aborigines on New Bulos Island, and it was understandable to pay the price of their lives.
So Pang Xiaonan no longer dwelled on the question of the dead, but asked Phoenix: "I guess, your boss lives in the temple in front, right?"
"That's right, you've seen the temple, so the boss called me over and brought you there. The phoenix took another step towards Pang Xiaonan.
"Who is your boss?" Pang Xiaonan's question has been holding back in his heart, and he is about to see the main owner at this moment, so he can't help but ask.
"You'll find out in a moment. The phoenix finally walked into Pang Xiaonan and stretched out its huge wings, "Come, sit on my back and hug my neck." ”
Pang Xiaonan got on the phoenix's back without a trace of thought, like an obedient child, hugging the phoenix's neck tightly.
As soon as the phoenix flapped its wings and flew to a height of several meters, and then its wings only waved slightly, and it flew towards the temple, and in just a few seconds, it reached the top of the door of the temple.
The phoenix landed steadily at the door of the temple, and in Pang Xiaonan's ears, the wind was still whistling, and he only heard the phoenix speak: "Come down, you walk in by yourself, the boss is waiting for you inside." ”
Pang Xiaonan jumped off the back of the phoenix, suddenly remembered something, looked up at the phoenix, and asked, "Do you see my two teammates, a man and a woman, they were separated from us before, but I didn't find their bodies." ”
Phoenix didn't turn his head to look at Pang Xiaonan, but just said, "You will know their whereabouts when you go in." ”
After speaking, the phoenix turned around, spread its wings and flew into the sky, leaving Pang Xiaonan alone at the door of the temple.
Pang Xiaonan turned around and looked over, the pillars of this palace are dozens of meters high, and the diameter is also amazingly large, ten people may not be able to hold it, there are mottled traces of time on the pillars, but they only look tattered on the surface, and there are no traces of elegance in the stone inside.
"I don't know what it's made of. Pang Xiaonan stepped forward and touched the stone pillar, feeling a huge spiritual power filling his heart.
"Damn, this is definitely not the material of Hallelujah, how can it feel so similar to my spirit stone flying knife?" Pang Xiaonan unexpectedly felt that the material of this stone pillar should be the same material as the spirit stone used to make the spirit stone flying knife by himself.
"Wow, how many spirit stones do you have to use up for such a big pillar!" Pang Xiaonan looked up at the top, his neck was sore, and he couldn't see the top of the pillar clearly.
Pang Xiaonan looked at the interior of the palace again, but because the hall was too deep, the sunlight outside could not shine into it at all, so Pang Xiaonan only saw a pitch black, and he couldn't see the specific situation inside at all.
The sun's rays shone obliquely from the roof of the porch outside, and only reached the outside of the temple gate, and could not enter the interior of the temple at all.
It stands to reason that the hall that does not see sunlight all year round should be gloomy, but Pang Xiaonan felt that there was no cool air blowing out of the temple, "This is strange, is there still lighting facilities in this palace? Or, is there a permanent lamp inside the hall?"
With all kinds of curiosity and apprehension, Pang Xiaonan approached the hall step by step, and the moment he walked into the hall, he found that the temple did not have a gate, that is, the entire inside of the temple was open to the outside.
At the moment when Pang Xiaonan stepped into the darkness, a deep voice came out from inside the hall, it can't be said to be deafening, but it really has a direct effect, Pang Xiaonan felt that his whole body and mind trembled a little at that moment, "Pang Xiaonan, you are here." ”
And when I stepped through the darkness, there was a sudden opening inside.
Pang Xiaonan looked in the direction where the voice came from, and saw a huge orangutan sitting on the dragon chair at the end of the palace, yes, the orangutan was indeed sitting on the dragon chair that he had seen on TV, and the orangutan was so big that it was beyond imagination, and it was three stories high.
"Pang Xiaonan!" Professor Rita's voice came to Pang Xiaonan's ears, and Pang Xiaonan swept his eyes and found that Rita Yama and BridgeMorgan were both sitting under the gorilla, and Rita Rima had already rushed over.
"Professor Rita Rita, you're here, I thought ......" Rita Rima grabbed Pang Xiaonan's arm, her eyes full of surprise.
"Why do you think we're dead?" Oda Lima pulled Pang Xiaonan and walked into the palace.
Pang Xiaonan looked at the interior of this huge hall, but his heart was strange, although this scale is like a palace, but it is too simple, there are stone walls all around, and there is no decoration, just like a rough house, but the lighting is good, the roof reveals a lot of light, compared to the dazzling outside, the light here is soft.
Xiao Tian Lima pulled Pang Xiaonan into the interior of the palace, sat down at the bottom of the gorilla, and sat opposite BridgeMorgan, "Pang Xiaonan, where is Wu Yongqiang?" Bridgemorgan looked intact, sitting on a stone bench and feeling uneasy.
He ...... He's dead......" Pang Xiaonan reported the news with some sadness, and then looked at Oda Lima, "Professor Oda Lima, how did you come here." ”
"We were chased to a place by a pack of hyenas and then carried by two pterosaurs. Oda Rima briefly recounted the experience, "After you went to the woods to find something to eat, a group of hyena-like creatures appeared, larger than ordinary hyenas, their speed was very fast, Bridgemorgan and I ran desperately, just when they were about to catch up with us, two winged dragons appeared in the sky, and then the hyenas ran away, and the two winged dragons actually spoke, saying that their boss wanted to see us, and we thought that if we didn't go with them, the hyenas would come and bite us at any time, so we were brought here." ”
Pang Xiaonan looked at the intimidating gorilla and said, "This is their boss, right?"
"Well, this is the boss of New Bloss, and all the prehistoric behemoths call him boss. Oda Rima also secretly looked at the gorilla, and at this moment, the gorilla's eyes were staring in the direction of Pang Xiaonan.
"You mean, all prehistoric monsters can speak?" Pang Xiaonan was surprised, those monsters that attacked the scientific expedition team without saying a word, could they all be intelligent creatures.
"No, I mean, the prehistoric creatures we see here, when they come in and report, they talk. "Oda Rima has been in this palace for a while, and I see that all the creatures that come to talk to the gorillas can talk, and they don't speak.
"You don't have to guess, the communication between me and them is telepathy, not what you call talking. The gorilla's deep voice echoed through the palace again, "Just as I communicate with you now, you hear my voice because your heads resonate with my thoughts. ”
"Then do you understand what we say?" Pang Xiaonan thought to himself that you can transmit sound thousands of miles, but how do you understand our language.
The corners of the gorilla's mouth went up, looking like it was smiling, it was lazily half lying on the dragon chair, one hand was propped up on the armrest, supporting its huge head, and its feet were casually placed on the chair, like a reclining Buddha, "Pang Xiaonan, I taught you all your language, do you think I won't understand what you say?"
"You taught?" Pang Xiaonan now understands a little, this gorilla may be the ancestor of Huaguo, the legendary ancestor who taught people to talk and hunt and farm, "You can't be the ancestor of Fuxi, right?"
"Fuxi and Nuwa are two big snakes, and I taught them wisdom," the gorilla squinted, as if closing his eyes, "and since then they have become the ancestors of mankind." ”
"Then you must be Pangu. Pang Xiaonan chased after him, and he was very interested in the identity of the gorilla.
"You're smart, but Pangu is just a code name for me. The identity of the gorilla surprised the three people present.
"Boss, why are you arresting us. Bridgemorgan, who is the big boss of the human race, asked the gorilla respectfully at this moment.
"Hey, I felt compassion when I saw you men and women," the gorilla sighed, "I was supposed to leave you to fend for yourself when I entered my territory, but I thought about it, you two can still reproduce in the human world, and it may be useful to keep it, so I called the guards to save you." ”
"Boss, you're not right, you two of them have reached out to help, why do you have to watch the rest of our teammates die?" Pang Xiaonan expressed his incomprehension of the gorilla's logic.
"I'm the boss, I have the final say, whoever I want to live will live, and whoever I want to die," the gorilla finally showed his majesty, "However, I really don't have the idleness, life and death follow fate, I see that if I move my heart, it may change someone's fate, but most people's lives are random, in your words, it is called destiny determined by heaven." ”
"Boss, are you heaven, or are you the legendary immortal, God?" Pang Xiaonan was still a little skeptical about the identity of the gorilla, why would an immortal look like an orangutan.
The palace is very warm, although it is a little simpler, but it is relatively clean, if this is a gorilla living place, there is no need to make it so warm, from this aspect, the gorilla is a bit of an emperor's style.
"Immortals and gods are both imagined by you humans, and I am the one who makes the rules," the gorilla reached out to the table in front of the dragon chair and took a fruit, put it in his mouth and chewed it with relish, "Even the gods in your mouth have to do things according to the rules I have made." ”
"Boss, can you tell me what kind of place this is?" Pang Xiaonan's tone was full of respect, he knew that the gorilla in front of him could kill him at any time, this was an existence beyond the level of immortals, not a level that could be reached by cultivation.
"I'll tell you a story...... "The gorilla shifted his massive body to make his sleeping position more comfortable, and began to tell the story of New Bloss.
A long time ago, hundreds of millions of years ago, gorillas arrived on Hallelujah. Just as humans bought an island in the Great Eastern Ocean, Hallelujah is a territory that gorillas have been allotted in their world.
At that time, Hallelujah was barren, so gorillas began to introduce a variety of animals and plants, so that Hallelujah began to be full of life.
However, primitive animals and plants still have no intelligence, gorillas trained some animals to do some simple things, gradually, some animals opened up their wisdom, and some intelligence was born in their minds, such as the two brothers and sisters of Fuxi Nuwa with human heads and snake bodies.
So the gorillas taught these enlightened creatures some complicated work, and gradually, human society began to take shape.
The gorilla watched the intelligent creatures he had created devastation Hallelujah and retreated, and he lived alone in New Bloss.
New Bulos has always existed on Hallelujah Star, equivalent to the villa of the gorilla, since the gorilla came to Hallelujah Star, it has been building New Bluth into a paradise, where it has introduced various primitive creatures from its hometown, as well as the later mutated species it collected from the Hallelujah continent, in short, it is a collection of various creatures that have existed since the birth of Hallelujah.
It's like a successful person who is tired of officialdom and shopping malls, and has to go back to his hometown to build a villa, and then spend the remaining spring, summer, autumn and winter in this villa, unless there is a particularly major disaster in the Hallelujah Star Continent, whether it is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, the gorilla will take action to settle it, and the rest of the time, the gorilla will stay in New Bloss, enjoying a life without fighting with the world.
After listening to the story of the gorilla, several people finally understood that the gorilla was the real owner of Hallelujah Star and the founder of Hallelujah Star.
"Boss, I don't know something, why do you choose to live in this backward world instead of enjoying the progress brought by technological civilization?" Bridgemorgan has come up with an idea since he knew the identity of the gorilla, he wants to curry favor with the gorilla, "As long as you want, you can follow me back to the Hallelujah continent, I guarantee that you can enjoy all the fruits of human technological civilization and enjoy a more comfortable and convenient life." ”
"Stupid humans. The gorilla didn't even move, "Technology is just going backwards, you humans have a theory called evolution, and in my opinion, it's degenerate." Tell me, what technology has brought you is an endless desire and comparison?"
BridgeMorgan was speechless, because his realm of thought was 108,000 miles away from the creator of mankind.
"I live here, leisurely, watch the sunrise and sunset every day, watch the flowers bloom and fall, close my eyes if I don't want to move, go outside if I want to move, eat if I want to, inhale some aura if I don't want to eat, do any of you have such a comfortable life as mine?" the gorilla grabbed another wild fruit and threw it into his mouth.
"Indisputable for the benefit of everything, the boss is really tall!" Pang Xiaonan gave a thumbs up to the gorilla, "The boss just said, if you don't want to eat, just inhale some aura, can you also cultivate?"
"What kind of cultivation, this is the little method of persuasion that I passed on to some of you, and it was boasted by those people as a cultivator. The gorilla's mouth was overflowing with juice, and it seemed that the fruits of this new Bloss were all juicy and delicious, "Let me tell you, no matter how you cultivate, you will not reach my realm." ”
"The goal that you have to cultivate all your life to achieve is nothing more than my true nature, for example, flying against the wind, this is the goal of many of you who have become immortals, but I can not only fly, I can also teleport. What the gorilla said didn't look like a lie, and Pang Xiaonan was stunned.
It turns out that the myths and legends are all true, but the gods and goddesses in those legends are all in human form, and Pang Xiaonan was fascinated by it for a while. "Pang Xiaonan, I know what you're thinking, you don't think my appearance is like a fairy, let me tell you, I can control my appearance to change at any time, what seventy-two changes, I can change into all forms. ”
The gorilla saw through Pang Xiaonan's idea and gave him the ability of the immortal, no, the boss of the immortal.
"Boss, can you change into a person and show us?" Pang Xiaonan cautiously made a request, he was really curious if he would see an immortal who would change in reality, "I mean, someone as big as us." ”
Pang Xiaonan's hands were compared to the size, the gorilla is too big, which makes several people feel very oppressive, even if they become human, they must become smaller, otherwise it will not look like a real person.
"Okay, I'll satisfy you. As soon as the words fell, the gorilla disappeared, and sitting on the dragon chair was a young man in his twenties, naked and looking at Pang Xiaonan with a smile.
It's just that as soon as the gorilla became the size of an ordinary person, the dragon chair seemed very huge, like a person sitting on the stairs of a basketball court.
"It's amazing, boss!" Pang Xiaonan couldn't help but shout, this is a real immortal.
The young man on the dragon chair shook his head and said, "Although I can change the structure of tissues and cells in my body and turn it into any object, my body is more comfortable." ”
After saying that, the gorilla reappeared, still in the same condescending posture.
Oda Rima rubbed her eyes, shook Pang Xiaonan's arm, and asked, "Was that true just now?
Pang Xiaonan hurriedly covered Oda Lima's mouth, if this was heard by the gorilla, maybe he would have murderous intent.
"It's true, don't be surprised, we've met a true immortal. ”
"Boss, there is one more thing I don't understand, you said that you created the history of Hallelujah, so you have been here for hundreds of millions of years?" Pang Xiaonan still couldn't figure it out, whether it was a god or a god, he couldn't live so long.
"What hundreds of millions of years, the known history of Hallelujah is hundreds of millions of years, but when I came, I was in ruins, you don't know how much work I did, I know your question, you are wondering why I can live so long, this is very simple, you humans have a saying, called one day in the sky, one year on earth, our lifespan For you, the hundreds of millions of years of Hallelujah are only equivalent to my years. ”
"I see. Pang Xiaonan nodded silently, it seemed that the realm he wanted to cultivate day and night was completely worthless in front of the Creator, and he felt a little frustrated.
"Pang Xiaonan, are you wondering, why did I bring you here?" the gorilla began to ask himself, he could see everyone's thoughts.
"Yes, boss, how could you be interested in chatting with us?" Pang Xiaonan felt that this god-level character didn't bother to play with some low-level creatures at all, like humans, he wouldn't chat with rats, except for those special humans who like to raise rats.
"I'm also a little bored sitting here, and I found that a few of you are quite powerful, and you can get close to where I live, especially you, who have a little potential to become immortals, so I asked you to come and accompany me. "The gorillas didn't hide anything.
"To be honest, when I was bored in the past, I also pretended to be a human to find a partner to play, it was all in the Hallelujah continent, but to meet humans here, it was beyond my expectations, your combat effectiveness is good, for so many years, even warships can't get close to here, but you did it, and you approached my residence, it's really strength and luck coexist, so I'm curious, who is the person, who has such a ability. ”
The gorilla pointed at BridgeMorgan and said, "Bridgemorgan, the rich man of mankind, I tell you, your wealth is not worth mentioning in front of me, and I want to deprive you of your wealth, which is also a matter of words, but I admire you for being able to leave your wealth behind to explore my territory." ”
"Boss, I didn't mean to, I really don't know, this is where you live. BridgeMorgan changed his domineering personality and had great respect for the gorilla in front of him, knowing that his life was all about the gorilla.
The gorilla pointed to Oda Rima and said, "You, a human scientist, as a woman, can explore new things without fear of hardships and dangers, and you can be regarded as the best among human beings, and your genes must be passed on." ”
"Boss, thank you for the compliment. In the face of absolute authority, Rita Rima felt extremely dignified.
"And you," the gorilla looked at Pang Xiaonan, "there are some groundbreaking appearances, so I'm very optimistic about you." ”
"Thank you boss, long live boss. Pang Xiaonan knew that the gorilla was the master of heaven and earth, so he naturally wanted to curry favor, "Oh, no, boss, I said the wrong thing, it's not long live, it's hundreds of millions of years old, no, it should be trillions years old." ”
It took a long time for Pang Xiaonan to get this conversion relationship accurate.
"Actually, I called you here to tell you one of my concerns, if human society continues to develop like this, the time of extinction will be a little earlier, so I won't be able to stay on this planet, we have a rule, if the territory we allotted is destroyed, then we have to roll up and leave, and go to another place to reopen the wasteland, so I still think that you humans can maintain Hallelujah for a longer time, so that I can have a more relaxed life. ”
The gorilla touched his forehead, "Of course, it's not up to you to change it, that's what I said." ”
"Boss, you got the protective cover above this Bloss disc, right?" Pang Xiaonan suddenly remembered such a question that had been bothering him for a long time.
"That's an enchantment, to prevent you from disturbing my rest. The gorilla waved his hand and pillowed it under his head, "Actually, it's also to protect you, you think, if you know about a place like me, you will definitely send a large number of planes or something to investigate, and then I'm angry that your little military force will be wiped out, why bother." ”
"Then if you tell us the real situation here, aren't you afraid that we will go back and talk nonsense?" Although Pang Xiaonan didn't know the true purpose of the gorillas, he was worried that just like when he joined the Sea Dragon Commando before, the gorillas would have a way to erase their memories.
"How do you say it's not that I'm worried, you just said that someone will believe it, even if someone believes it, how can it threaten the safety of here, according to your current technology, it's a problem to get close to here, don't look at you here, that's your great luck, if you want to send troops here on a large scale, there is only one way to die, don't worry, I won't erase your memories, and there is no threat to me if you keep this memory." ”
