I Became an Anonymous Boss

Tai Shang still didn't say anything, even closed his eyes, with one hand behind his back, his left hand was copying the bottom of the bowl, there were a few drops of water color in the bowl.

Venerable Lingshan took a deep breath, calmed down, and asked again: "Fang Xuanji, you set up a game, right?"

"What does it have to do with us if there is nothing you want, and you become a demon immediately?"

"Where did the gate fall that day?" Master Lingshan narrowed his eyes: "You don't seem to want Fang Xuanji to cross the gate of heaven, but you want him to become a great demon."

Taishang Taoist disapproved: "It's meaningless to ask about the dead chess pieces."

"So, you came to the chessboard in person..." Lingshan paused and said, "Because there are no chess pieces available, right?"

Tai Shang looked down at the water in his own bowl, smiled and said nothing.

Lingshan gritted his teeth and asked, "Will the demon clan be destroyed?"

Taishang said: "Do you care?"

Master Lingshan had a lingering look on his face: "I'm not a fairy, so of course I care."

She frowned, looked at the Taishang's left hand, thought for a while and said: "The Guanyin Sect's courtyard and Chiyuan respectively contain the qi and daily essence and moon essence accumulated by the Guanyin Sect of the past generations... You can take them all away."

Taishang Daojun looked sideways, opened his eyes slightly, and said after a while, "I won't kill Boren... Are you sure it's worth it?"

Master Lingshan said coldly: "Do you want me to watch you kill all the creatures here? He is desperately working, I have to do something, now it's not my turn to cherish the feathers, otherwise I will practice for 500 years, but I will succeed." Beast."

Taishang Daojun said calmly: "It's enough to fill half of my bowl, but have you considered it? Doing this... Guanyin Sect can be regarded as dead in name only."

"Existing in name only?"

"Isn't it the same in this world?"

"I finally understand what you are looking for. Practice in the world is simply a joke."

Master Lingshan picked up Bai Jun'er and walked away without looking back.

"world?"

Taishang Daojun held up a celadon bowl with his left hand, and the water in the bowl was full of steam and the water flowed high.

He opened his eyes, full of the coldness of heaven and man: "All into my urn."

When Venerable Ling Shan walked past Bai Taki's stone statue, he paused for a moment, opened and closed his lips, and said a word.

She said, "Don't die."

……

Shirataki was lying in the pit, and the ruins of the Dragon Palace were as quiet as a dead cemetery.

He said suddenly, "Old fellow."

"What's the matter?"

"Do you really know a lot?"

"I don't know all of them, but there are quite a few." The old man changed his sitting position: "What do you want to ask?"

"Then you also know, what are those gods in the sky thinking?"

"Of course it's for my own sake, for my own benefit."

"Specifically?"

"...It's like the emperor, after gaining the world, what else do you want?"

"Eternal life?" Bai Taki said, "But haven't they already obtained eternal life?"

"That's right, but longevity doesn't mean eternal life." The old gravekeeper supported his knees and said sadly, "The land gods will die and fall, and there are things to fear, but they live longer than ordinary people."

"It turned out that I was just afraid of death."

"Not everyone can face death calmly. The longer they live, the more they fear death, and the land gods are no exception."

"However, so far... there is not a single land god who has truly fallen." Bai Taki said, "What are they afraid of?"

The old man who guarded the tomb did not speak, but calmly lowered his eyes and looked at the ruins.

Shirataki seemed to understand.

It's the changing of times.

Just like in the long history, the dominant creatures of the earth have changed and changed. The era when the primate Homo sapiens became the rulers of the earth has only lasted for less than a few million years. In terms of the age of the earth, it is It belongs to a very short historical period.

This rule is also applicable in other worlds. The human race has the Tianmen, and the monster race also has the Dragon Gate.

In the past era, from the time when the dragons ruled the world and the humans and monsters divided the land equally, it gradually became the dominance of the human family.

In fact, the human race was a very weak race before they started to practice. Any practice cannot be achieved overnight. It needs countless predecessors to step on it step by step, and finally evolved into today's complicated and diverse practice system. From the beginning, it was far weaker than Other races can grow stronger through continuous practice, which is essentially a script for the Son of Destiny to rise from a weak position.

Bai Taki asked: "Is this also the reason why the dragon clan completely disappeared from the world?"

The old man who guarded the tomb sighed: "The roster is limited. If one more person's name is written on it, it means that one's name will be withdrawn, and the land gods will also die. The rise and fall of the original era is also like this."

"In the past, this world was very big, but this place is a miserable place in the world. The reason why it is a miserable place is because this land is the richest and most coveted. Whether it is the demon realm or the outer world, there will always be disasters."

"The outside world is as strong as a forest, and the gods of the land will die, and the real dragon will die, and the emperor of the demons will also die. The earth dynasty is established and destroyed. In fact, in the process of this endless conquest, the renewal speed of the race is also continuous. , the ancestors of the human race, the dragon race, the monster race, and the alien race were all transferred from other realms, but they survived tenaciously here and survived in the end."

Shirataki asked, "What about now?"

The old man who guarded the tomb paused: "You should know the world today better than me..."

Shirataki hesitated to speak.

"I want to ask why it became like this?" said the old grave guard.

The stranger nodded.

"No hurry, the answer to this question, I will answer you last." The old man who guarded the tomb hid the answer, and he shook his sleeves lightly. He preached.

He caught a glimpse of Shirataki's sudden silence, and couldn't help laughing: "What? Now you start to wonder if what I said is true or not? I've said too much, but it sounds like a fabrication?"

Shirataki neither affirmed nor denied it.

He asked back: "I was just thinking, why did the emperor throw me here? What did he want you to tell me?"

The old man who guarded the tomb suddenly fell silent.

The expression of the gray-haired old man showed a little lamentation and sentimentality.

After a long time, he sighed and laughed at himself: "Because he thinks that if I, a former loser, tell you, maybe you can choose to give up."

Shirataki stared at him: "Loser?"

"Yeah, loser."

"Just, a loser?" Shirataki asked abruptly.

"..." After the old man was silent, the manjusawa all over the mountains began to sway, and the wind whimpered.

Bai Taki said lightly: "I really don't think that the heavenly beings who want to exterminate even the monster race and try to sacrifice the entire Nantang kingdom to the new demon lord will allow a defeated person to stay here to languish, unless they don't Grasp to kill you."

The old man lowered his head and said nothing.

Shirataki said, "Let's put it bluntly...how did you survive?"

The old man smiled bitterly: "Do you have to ask me to understand?"

Bai Taki smiled disapprovingly: "Murdering people... It seems that you chose to surrender in the end, took the initiative to put you in prison, and guarded the dragon gate for them. Only then did you get a glimmer of life."

He asked again: "Do you regret it?"

The old man guarding the tomb grabbed a manju sawa, and his hands were bright red.

He lowered his head, his tone gradually numb: "The loser has nothing to say. Whoever wins can dominate this land. Whoever loses will bow his head obediently. Hasn't this been the case since ancient times? This land Owners change all the time."

Seeing that his sad expression was not fake, Bai Taki couldn't help asking: "Why are you guarding this grave here?"

The old man didn't answer, but just stared at the flowers in his hand in a daze.

Shirataki got a little impatient waiting, and was about to continue asking.

"The others are all dead, and those who died generously went to justice, but I didn't dare. By the time I did, it was already too late... Not to mention the burning fire, it's not even the icing on the cake."

The old man guarding the tomb sighed softly: "I wanted to wait for her to come back...so, I couldn't give up..."

Shirataki asked strangely: "Who? Who is she referring to?"

The old man answered many questions, but this time he answered with questions: "Is she still alive?"

He shook his head self-consciously: "It seems that she is no longer there, otherwise how could you appear?"

Shirataki understood, he tried to raise his head again: "You know the previous generation..."

Before he raised his head much, he was pushed back again, and there were countless cracks on the ground.

But Bai Taki still managed to raise his head five inches, staring at the old man guarding the tomb, his eyes were slightly prickly red.

The old man murmured: "Like...really like..."

He smiled reminiscently: "But her eyes are just opposite to yours."

Shirataki gritted his teeth and asked, "Did she really die in battle?"

The old man guarding the tomb said softly, "Let me tell you about the past. Actually...it's not complicated."

A long time ago, the world was a fertile land. Its gates were often opened, which naturally attracted many outsiders.

These outsiders, in order to compete for the right to rule here, fought for a long time, and time passed, leaving behind many races and forces.

The strongest among the populations living in this world have made an agreement to jointly resist outsiders, which brings a little more order and stability to the world.

Monsters were expelled to the snowy land; sea beasts were suppressed at the bottom of the abyss by the dragon clan;

However, they know that this is only temporary peace.

Sooner or later, more and stronger enemies will come.

So they had a disagreement.

One party said that the passage should be blocked, people should be separated, and people should be left here to recuperate, and all parties should divide the world;

One side said that the passage cannot be blocked, and the flow of water will not rot and the household hinges will not be moth. Once the passage is blocked, civil strife will inevitably usher.

Neither side can convince the other.

Soon, a powerful enemy came from outside, and it was another tragic battle.

After this battle, before they had time to recuperate, due to the large number of casualties of the main combat faction, the balance was disrupted, and the civil war began.
