Seeing the woman's gaze directed at him, Xu Tong not only did not feel any warmth of family affection, but instead felt cold all over his body.
The other person seems to be speaking to himself at this moment across a distance of time and space.
This is quite incredible.
When he wanted to see clearly, the woman in the mirror disappeared.
There is not even my own existence in the empty mirror.
Xu Tong immediately wanted to continue searching from other pictures, but at this moment, the river in front of him suddenly began to churn.
The image of Mo Lake seems to be disappearing.
"how so!!"
Xu Tong suddenly became anxious when he saw this, but when he wanted to continue looking down, a hand grabbed his collar unceremoniously and dragged him out.
"If you want to die, it would be better to let me suck you dry!"
When he looked up, he saw the eldest princess looking down at him condescendingly.
"Boss, you went crazy just now and actually stuck your head into the river. We pulled you like crazy and couldn't hold you back. If it weren't for the eldest princess, you would be dead at the bottom of the river now."
Gao Zhuo shook Xu Tong's shoulders, fearing that Xu Tong was still not clear-headed.
After hearing Gao Zhuo's words, Xu Tong lowered his head and found that most of his clothes were wet. He felt a strong feeling of fear in his heart.
The danger of the Wangchuan River was indeed not blown away. I thought that because of my superior concentration, I would never have any problems, but I didn't want to almost drown myself in the river.
"Sorry, I was careless."
Xu Tong stood up and thanked the eldest princess: "It seems that my blood is quite a bargain."
"Hmph! Virtue!"
The eldest princess rolled her eyes, turned around and jumped on the carriage. She glanced back at Xu Tong and said, "If you really think it's a good deal, we can have a year-round subscription next time. Just let me suck you once a month. I promise it will be more cost-effective."
Xu Tong refused this proposal. He was not in danger every day. Occasionally, a monthly subscription would be enough. If he had a year-round subscription, wouldn't he be losing blood?
After Xu Tong changed into clean clothes, the team continued to move forward.
After crossing the Wangchuan River, not far ahead is the Forest of No Return.
Xu Tong half leaned on the car's shaft, and from time to time he took out new snacks for the fool to taste. The old man also took advantage of the fool and ate them with him.
After eating for a long time, the old Taoist finally spoke: "Tell me, what's the trouble?"
It turned out that the old Taoist looked at Xu Tong's expression when he was sitting on the shaft of the carriage and knew that this boy might be thinking about some difficult questions waiting to ask him.
Seeing that the old Taoist took the initiative to speak, Xu Tong had no choice but to express his doubts reluctantly.
"Is there anyone in the world who can talk to people in the future through a specific time?"
Xu Tong pondered for a long time before he figured out how to express his doubts.
Because what I saw was so incredible.
If the woman she saw was really her mother, how could she communicate with herself at this moment through a certain fragment in her memory?
Also, be careful with Old A, why would he mention an old man who is dying in a lunatic asylum??
Could it be that he planned to go back to celebrate the old man’s birthday next, so he reminded himself specifically?
If that's the case, wouldn't it be even more terrifying? What kind of strength can we achieve this?
As for these things, Xu Tong couldn't tell them directly. After all, Wu Jie was nearby. It wasn't that he deliberately concealed it, but that it was better not to let people know about these things until they were investigated clearly.
The question raised by Xu Tong really surprised the old Taoist.
After thinking for a moment, he nodded: "Yes!"
"What can I do??" Xu Tong asked with wide eyes.
The old Taoist was silent for a while, stuffed the spicy strips in his hand into his mouth and chewed them hard. Then he met Xu Tong's eyes and uttered two words: "Become an immortal!"
"Become an immortal??"
Xu Tong's eyes widened. He thought that the learned Taoist could give a scientific explanation, but he didn't expect that the Taoist would draw such a big piece of cake for himself.
Seeing the shocked expression on Xu Tong's face, the old Taoist could only explain: "It's not that I'm trying to convince you with big words, but that you only have this answer to your question."
After finishing speaking, the old Taoist asked Xu Tong with a serious expression: "Time is something that is defined by human self-understanding, but for gods, it is not fixed."
The old Taoist told Xu Tong a story, which was a myth about the gods.
It's just completely different from traditional fairy tales.
It is said that the Queen Mother of the West of Kunlun once held a banquet, and thousands of gods came to congratulate her. However, these gods did not come from one time, some came from the past, some came from the present, and some came from the distant future.
Some of these gods are born, while others are the leading figures in a certain era.
With the blessing of destiny and the luck of heaven and earth, you can achieve immortality and become an immortal immediately.
Having said this, the old Taoist looked at Xu Tong: "You think, the opportunity to become an immortal is so rare. If these heroes and immortals were put together to fight for it, I'm afraid there would be no such myth as you see.
So time is just a unit of measurement. If you become an immortal, this unit will have no meaning."
The old Taoist's words really opened Xu Tong's eyes.
But what follows is a huge question mark??
Could it be that my mother is a god???
Thinking of this, Xu Tong couldn't help but think of a cruel old guy and raised his arms.
I stopped pretending and showed my cards.
My father is a god and my mother is a fairy. I am still a shit player. My mother and I will go to heaven and become gods.
Of course, this was YY's idea, and Xu Tong didn't dare to think too much about it, after all, it was too bloody.
"Here we are, here we are!!"
At this moment, the fool suddenly pointed forward and said.
Xu Tong could only temporarily put this problem behind him. When he looked around, he saw a black jungle in the distance.
The jungle was covered in thick fog, and even with his clairvoyance, he couldn't see clearly what the depths of the jungle looked like.
But it can be seen that the ancient trees in this jungle are tall and vertical, as huge as a building at least thirty meters high, and the pale bark is as smooth as the bones of some kind of creature.
In front of the jungle, there is a huge stone with three large characters written on one side: "No Return to the Forest"
On the other side was a line of small characters, which Xu Tong read along.
"This forest is three thousand miles deep. There is no distinction between left and right in the forest. East and west are reversed and connected with the outside world. Those who leave cannot return and those who come cannot return."
From this line of text, it is not difficult to see how big this forest of no return is. Xu Tong was just curious. If it is based on the text.
Since those who come here cannot return, then how can this Western envoy go back when he comes from here?
However, after thinking about this question, Xu Tong no longer felt that there was any problem.
The underworld is vast and boundless. If they don't go from here, it is not difficult to turn back after going out from other places.
The reason why I came from here may be because this road is relatively close.
"Everyone, let's take a rest. It looks like the other party hasn't arrived yet."
Xu Tong signaled everyone to dismount and rest.
However, just as everyone dismounted, suddenly the old Taoist and the eldest princess simultaneously looked towards the Forest of No Return in front of them.
"coming!"
The old Taoist said.
In the jungle, a dull sound of footsteps gradually sounded, and in the distance, ancient trees in the sky collapsed.
Deep in the Forest of No Return, I saw a giant red-haired elephant walking slowly forward. The giant elephant was ten meters tall. Its six pairs of huge tusks were like the buckets of a bulldozer, knocking down a large number of ancient trees in front of it.
A clearing was plowed out.
Behind the giant elephant, the legions marched in neat steps, like a torrent of steel.
The skin of these people was as rough as a lizard, and they wore heavy armor. Even the big swords in their hands were almost as big as the door panels of ordinary people's homes.
The army's uniform steps were approaching step by step, accompanied by a powerful and suffocating aura.
Even though they were still far apart, the old Taoist and the eldest princess could not help but frown, feeling unprecedented pressure.
"Kakakaka..."
Behind the legion, a huge carriage moved slowly. Eight hell horses trampled green flames on the ground, spitting out a ball of hell fire from their mouths from time to time.
The luxurious carriage is as huge as a moving building.
And when this team passed through the deep forest, ancient trees as high as the sky quickly sprouted on the land that had been bulldozed. These ancient trees seemed to rise from the soil in the blink of an eye.
Traces are completely erased.
"It's coming out!!"
Gao Zhuo and others watched the fallen ancient trees getting closer and closer, with sweat appearing on their foreheads.
After all, they were envoys from the West, so they knew they had a big backing, but they didn't expect that they would already feel tremendous pressure even before they showed up.
At this time, the fool seemed to remember something. After groping for a long time, he took out a golden flag and put it on the front of the car.
Suddenly there was no wind and the flag spread out on its own. There was nothing on the flag, but it was bright red.
Once the flag was raised, the sense of oppression on Xu Tong and the others immediately disappeared, and a strong sense of security and confidence arose in their hearts.
"The Heroic Soul Flag."
The fool pointed at the flag, called out the name of the flag, and stood below and clapped his hands.
A heroic spirit flag, a hundred thousand soldiers.
All demons and evil spirits must be avoided.
Xu Tong and others could feel the fiery power on this flag, and they couldn't help but feel awe in their hearts.
Maybe time can erase everything, but it can't erase this bright red.
"Kaka..."
At this time, the forest suddenly exploded in front of them, and six pairs of huge tusks poked out from the forest, followed closely by the giant red-haired elephant that was as huge as a mountain and slowly walked out.
That huge aura made Xu Tong and the others frown for a moment, but because of the bright red Heroic Soul Flag behind them, they didn't feel the slightest sense of oppression.
Immediately after, those hell warriors holding big swords came out. When these high-minded hell warriors noticed Xu Tong and others, they couldn't help showing contempt in their eyes.
But when they saw the bright red flag on the carriage, the arrogance in their eyes disappeared instantly. As if they remembered some terrible memories, they all lowered their heads and did not dare to look directly at the red flag that was as conspicuous as blood.
