Back Off, Let Me Come

The guard didn't dare to interrupt the boss's topic at first, but when he heard the age of his teacher from Yun Ce, he was instantly convinced. His eyes, which were not very big, suddenly widened: "Two, two, two hundred, One? Are you sure it’s two and not one?”

He screamed inwardly and held his head.

Although no one in today's world lives long, there are always a few lucky people who live two or three lifetimes longer than others. Centenarians are rare, and you can still find a few if you search all over the continent. But—that’s two hundred years old? two hundred!

It has only been over two hundred years since the thief star fell from the sky, and General Yun’s teacher is almost the first batch of brave warriors/literary scribes!

Is this, is this still a human being?

Isn’t this the case that people become better with age?

Because the guards were too shocked, Yun Ce had to explain patiently: "My master practiced martial arts and was very talented. He served as a general of a certain country in his early years. When he was a hundred years old, he saw through the world of mortals. His Taoist heart further broke through and he retired. A brave warrior has surpassed the realm of strength. If you are strong, your lifespan will be extended accordingly. The master's strength has reached the state of perfection, so it is not unusual to live to this age, and he is not mature."

Although Yun Ce has never met another ancestor who was the same generation as his master, judging from the information his master revealed on weekdays, there are definitely many existences like him. It's just that he didn't come out and show off in the market for various reasons.

The guards were full of admiration when they heard this.

"At the age of a hundred, Guayin retired?" Although I don't know what level Teacher Yun Ce is, he must have reached the pinnacle of human power when he was a hundred years old. At this time, Guayin retired and lived in the mountains for a long time. How ambitious is this?

The guard couldn't help but sigh.

He asked himself, he didn't have this awareness.

Isn't it just for enjoyment to fight for a lifetime?

Retreat bravely from the rapids?

Is it that the world of mortals is boring, or is it that turning your hands to make clouds and rain is not exciting? Because he couldn't do it, the guards admired him even more.

When Yun Ce heard this, his smile froze slightly for some reason.

How did he answer this?

When he first heard this gossip, he also admired it, but soon he heard another version from the ears of his fellow disciples - the master had no choice but to retire, he had to retire!

At first, Yun Ce scoffed at the rumor.

Until this matter reached the ears of the old master.

Master watered the flowers slowly: "That's true." 】

Douding Yunce was shocked: [Who is it? 】

Is there anyone more powerful than the teacher?

The master said: "His name is Jimo Xing." 】

This name has been imprinted in Yun Ce's heart from this moment on.

After Yun Ce answered the personal guard, his eyes fell on Gong Xiqiu: "I wonder where the senior Jimo is? If there is a chance, I would like to visit him. The teacher also misses him very much."

Gong Xiqiu said indifferently: "You can't visit."

Yun Ce's smile froze slightly, as if he didn't expect to be bluntly rejected by Gong Xiqiu. Then I thought about it and realized that it made sense. He was a contemporary of his master. In his eyes, he was not even a young boy and had no qualifications.

He was just about to apologize when he heard Gong Xiqiu throw a thunderbolt in an understatement: "The old priest has returned to the embrace of God."

Yun Ce was confused: "Returning to the embrace of God?"

Gong Xiqiu said in a good temper: "According to your customs, the old priest passed away...many years ago."

Yun Ce: "???"

When he came to his senses, he blurted out: "Impossible!"

According to what the teacher said, the senior Jimo Xing was his contemporary, more than a year younger than him. How could someone with such a powerful position lose his life so easily? What happened to being two hundred years old? Still beating Yun Ce with one hand, he couldn't find Bei.

Gong Xiqiu sighed: "I also hope it's fake."

No one wanted that night to be a nightmare more than he did.

Yun Ce gritted his teeth, cupped his fists and said, "Excuse Yun for being presumptuous, why did the old man die? The old man is a very important opponent to the family teacher, and he has to mention it from time to time over the years..." If the teacher knows that the other person has been dead for many years, I don’t know how sad it is.

Gong Xiqiu pursed his lips: "Kill the clan."

Yun Ce was shocked: "Kill the clan?"

"The Yehu clan members retreated and died in a fierce battle." He didn't want to go into any extra details, but just picked up some content related to the old priest. But when Gong Xiqiu mentioned that Tang Guocai, a fifteenth-year-old young man who severely injured the old priest, had reached the peak, he was shocked!

"This is impossible!"

The fifteenth-level young master is really not good enough for his master!

Gong Xiqiu said: "This Tang Guo may have been a sixteenth-level master at that time. His chronic illness caused his decline in realm?"

When he started to kill Tang Guo, the opponent was indeed only a fifteenth-level young master, otherwise how could Gong Xiqiu still stand here? Even if Jimo Can and the Gongxi clan are tied to the undead souls, the best outcome for both parties is that both sides will lose.

Yun Ce: "It's impossible even for a sixteenth-level master!"

Gong Xiqiu touched his chin in his heart - looking at this situation, Yun Ce's teacher's strength is still above the sixteenth level.

"Then - I don't know."

Yun Ce scratched his head: "What on earth is going on?"

For brave warriors, if there are no fatal injuries or other stubborn diseases, the peak state can be maintained for many, many years. Until the end of life, the vitality and blood will gradually decline, and the decaying and dead energy will gradually replace the majestic vitality. At this time, the strength will begin to decline, but it will not decline to the point where it cannot even do the sixteenth-level great masters. Yun Ce secretly decided to send a message to the division.

Gong Xiqiu said: "Maybe only the old priest knows."

In the middle of the continent, Qi State, the royal capital, and the royal family.

It was usually as noisy as a court meeting in a vegetable market, but now it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, a bit quieter than the mourning hall where the previous king passed away. The source of this tranquility is not other people, but the five people standing in the middle of the crowd, dressed as common people.

To be precise, one old and one young among the five.

The old man among them took out a secret volume.

The only unusual thing is the signature seal on the secret volume.

The new leader of Qi Kingdom looked down at the secret scroll, then looked up at the old man, and asked again after a long time: "Mr., are you sure?"

The old man said in a hoarse voice: "I am convinced."

The leader of Qi Kingdom: "..."

Who knows, something that has disappeared for more than a hundred years has reappeared, and people come out and only want a place in the Holy Land of Mountains and Seas. Well, to be precise, I want to get back a place in the Holy Land of Mountains and Seas that was robbed. The leader of Qi Kingdom secretly wiped his sweat and secretly looked at the ministers under the knife. Things that are more likely to fail than succeed will only cause trouble for him. Don't you check your identity before taking action?

The leader of Qi Kingdom respectfully agreed to the old man's request. Seeing that his goal was achieved, the old man casually found an excuse to retreat.

After the five people left, the atmosphere in the court became calm again.

The next second, the secret scroll hit the minister directly on the head.

The minister heard the order to be demoted before he could react, and his vision almost went dark. He didn't know what happened until he was removed from office. It took him a long time to clear his thoughts.

He was originally appointed as the next Zhongzheng official. According to the unspoken rules, he could help people operate one or two places in the Mountain and Sea Holy Land. I don’t know where his mother’s uncle heard the news. He persuaded his old mother, and the two of them worked together to put pressure on him, rolling around and crying about how much effort it took to raise him. He had to help his mother’s family, and he couldn’t forget what his uncle had done. Years of kindness.

[Yao Zu, just help your brother... If you don't help him, how will you explain to your ancestors after a hundred years as your mother? Can you bear to see your uncle in such a miserable state? 】

He said: [My cousin is not strong enough. He will not get a good ranking in the next session of the Holy Land of Mountains and Seas. It is better to settle down for a few more years. With his talent, he will definitely achieve outstanding results! 】

Even their earnest words could not change their determination.

He had no choice but to agree.

It turned out that the quota was full and there were no vacancies.

The uncle was not satisfied with the result and provoked: "Why don't we just pick a poor student and bribe him to give up?" 】

He sighed and said: [I'll give it a try. 】

Persimmons should be picked soft and pinched.

With a pinch, he pinched the head of a young man from a foreign country named Jimo Qiu. It was reported that he had no connections in Qi State and he didn't know how he got the spot. The result - the quota was snatched last night, the complaint was filed this morning, and he was sent to jail in the afternoon.

Minister: “…???”

no--

Who is that Jimo Qiu?

The minister who was in prison was scratching his head in confusion as he listened to the cry of his old mother outside the cell, wondering about Jimo Qiu's background.

Fourth Uncle Lin couldn't figure this out either.

Last night, Shaobai rolled back from the academy pitifully holding a small package. When asked, the young man felt aggrieved and said that it was the academy teacher who made him drop out of school. Shaobai had a quota for the next Mountain and Sea Holy Land, so he took a special path to stay in that academy to study.

Naturally, if you lose your quota, you will no longer be able to stay.

Fourth Uncle Lin: [Your teacher’s connections are not reliable! 】

He is also an old man in the world, and when he saw the program, he knew that Shaobai's spot had been snatched away by someone behind the scenes, so he had no choice but to admit defeat.

How can a few outsiders defeat the local dignitaries?

After a while, the old man who was out for a walk came back.

Shaobai was very surprised when he saw him.

When asked again, the old man's face instantly darkened several times.

So, on the second day in King Qi's court, he used the hands of the leader of King Qi to snatch back the quota.

The old man's connection is the leader of Qi Kingdom? ? ?

Fourth Uncle Lin glanced at the old man from time to time, his small eyes filled with infinite curiosity. Shaobai received his signal and became a sounding board: "Teacher is so awesome!"

The old man sneered: "It's not that the teacher is great."

He added: "They are afraid of death."

Returning to the temporary residence, facing the four curious babies, the old man could only elaborate: "This matter started from the Wu Gu disaster many years ago. At that time, the world was in chaos, and the leader of Wu State tried to use Gu to control the army and unify the continent. As a result, such a tyrannical existence collapsed overnight. Although the Wu Kingdom was destroyed, it left a lot of troubles. Those Gu insects reproduced with human nutrients..."

In eight years, it swept almost half of the continent, and was only one step away from unifying the continent, only to be overturned overnight.

After the subversion, these Gu insects were completely out of control.

Fourth Uncle Lin is also considered familiar with history.

He said: "No, the history books did not record this."

Shaobai refined so many Gu worms in front of him. He also had a superficial understanding of this mysterious thing and knew how terrifying it would be once they got out of control. There is no record of this in history books.

The old man said calmly: "Under control."

Fourth Uncle Lin asked: "How to control it?"

The old man sneered: "Almost all the elites of the Gongxi clan, including the fifth-generation high priest, were sacrificed... Those who survived also suffered severe injuries to varying degrees. It has been more than a hundred years and they have not been able to recover. Otherwise, how could the clan be wiped out by the clown?"

Everyone took a breath when they heard this.

"The fifth generation high priest?"

Fourth Uncle Lin subconsciously looked at Shaobai.

Isn’t this profession a succession of successions?

The old man saw his doubts: "It depends on God's will."

It’s not like the high priest will work until death after taking office. He usually works for one to twenty years and then changes his position. The gods also like fresh faces.

In this world, only the high priests of the Gongxi tribe are the most connected with the Gu insects. They have been bathed in divine light and are the Gu insects' favorite and most irresistible existence. In order to suppress the voodoo uprising, the five high priests had no choice but to feed the voodoo with their bodies.

The Gongxi tribe also declined since then.

The old man said: "The ancestors of the Qi Kingdom were a branch of the Wu Kingdom and received the favor from the ancestors of the Gongxi clan..."

If it weren't for Shao Bai, he wouldn't actually want to do this.

Fourth Uncle Lin listened with great interest, but when he knew the ending, he couldn't help but sigh. He tensed up and said, "Didn't Shaobai's identity be exposed? Shaobai is the high priest..."

Wu Kingdom, that is the dream of many superiors.

The secret of the Gu insect is in Shao Bai's hands.

The leader of Qi Kingdom will not be moved?

But the old man didn't care: "What are you afraid of? If they are kind to Shaobai, they can win over each other and enjoy the benefits; if they don't have the foresight to do something stupid, they will all perish together. The high priest of the Gongxi tribe is like a single seedling."

The implication is that if you are not afraid of death, you can continue to trick insects. Once it gets out of control, no one will wipe it, and all living creatures on the mainland will be buried together. Just in time, neatly, go down to hell and continue fighting. The leader of Qi Kingdom knew their identities, but it was too late to offer them sacrifices.

Fourth Uncle Lin asked again: "What about your original connections?"

The old man said: "I have been an official for decades and have dealt with more people than you have ever eaten. Do you have to answer for this?"

Fourth Uncle Lin: "..."

In the middle of the night, Shaobai suddenly woke up.

"Teacher, someone is peeking at Ayan——"

It was an indescribable, weird feeling. There seemed to be eyes staring at him in the darkness, and he was so scared.

The old man opened the window expressionlessly, but there was no one there.

He said to the air: "I wonder which old man is coming here? But Ayan is just a child. If you scare him, it will be of no benefit to your country, so please think about it!"

After these words, Shaobai no longer felt like he was being spied on when he went to sleep. When the old man learned about this, he only laughed.

He said disdainfully: "Old man who is afraid of death."

Shaobai looked at him puzzled: "What?"

The old man: "It's nothing. I just suddenly remembered that there are still some immortal ghosts in this world. They are greedy for life and afraid of death. They like to spy on children like you in the middle of the night. Next time you feel this way, don't let it get used to you. Want to scold."

"scold?"

The old man nodded: "They are most afraid of this."

Shaobai nodded confusedly: "Oh."

On the second day, Shaobai continued to study in the academy.

After he left for half a day, an old man with white hair and a childlike face, a fairy-like demeanor, and a restrained aura like an ordinary person appeared in the place where he stayed.

The man looked at the old man, and the old man looked at him silently.

"After more than a hundred years, you are finally here."

It is really not a life for humans to live with the ground as a prison!

|ω`)

The old man who appeared at the end was not Teacher Yun Ce. Teacher Yun Ce was imprisoned in the northwest continent, which is the central part of the continent.
