Chapter 38: The devil walks in the light

In the sky, clouds are layered and spring rain is lingering.

The drizzle as thin as cow's hair fell down, covering the green Maoshan Mountain with a layer of thin smoke.

The first floor canteen in the inn is still deserted and there are only four tables of guests.

Fang Yuan was sitting right next to the window, and a gust of wind blew, mixed with poetry and fragrance of flowers.

"The rain on the sky is as moist as soft as a slight rain, and the grass is close but not close." Fang Yuan looked at the window from afar, murmured softly, and then withdrew his gaze.

The table in front of him was filled with good wine and dishes, both of which were full of color, fragrance and taste. Especially the green bamboo wine, the wine was fragrant and fresh. The green wine was quietly served in the bamboo cup, and from this perspective, it was filled with a warm and amber-like luster.

On the table closest to him were the grandparents and grandchildren. They were all mortals wearing simple clothes.

While sucking rice wine, the old man looked at Fang Yuan enviously. It was obviously moved by the fragrance of green bamboo wine, but he had no money to buy it.

The grandson ate the marinated beans and bit them in his mouth, making a clatter. At the same time, he pestered his grandfather and shook the old man's arms: "Grandpa, grandpa, tell me the story of the ancestors of the people. If you don't tell me, I will go back and tell my grandma, saying that you came out to steal wine!"

"Oh, it's not safe to eat wine." The old man sighed, but his face showed a kindness. He touched his grandson's head with his thin hands, "Then let me talk. By the way, the ancestor gave his heart to Hope Gu and escaped from the predicament..."

The story of the ancestor of humans is the most widely circulated and oldest legend in this world.

The story told by the old man is probably like this.

It is said that because of hope, the ancestor got rid of the predicament. But he was old and had no strength or wisdom. He could no longer continue hunting, and even his teeth fell out. Many wild fruits and vegetables could not chew.

The ancestors of humans have already felt the gradual approaching death.

At this time, Hope Gu told him: "People, you can't die. If you die, your heart will be gone, and I hope you will lose your place of residence."

The ancestor of the human race was helpless: "Who wants to die? But the heaven and earth want me to die, I have to die."

Hope Gu said: "Everything has hope. As long as you grasp the longevity Gu, you can add a new life span."

The ancestor of the human race had long heard of the existence of the longevity Gu, but he was helpless and spread his hands: "When the longevity Gu is still, no one can notice it. When it flies, it is faster than the light. How could I catch it? It's so difficult!"

Hope Gu told Renzu a secret: "Man, don't give up hope in everything. I tell you, there is a mountain on the northwest corner of the earth. There is a cave on the top of the mountain, and there are two Gu insects in a circle and a square. As long as you can subdue these two Gu insects, there is no Gu insect in the world that cannot be captured, even the longevity Gu is no exception!"

The ancestor of the human race is already at a loss, and this is his only hope.

He spent all his hardships to find the mountain. He braved all kinds of dangers to climb to the top of the mountain. At the entrance of the cave at the top of the mountain, he only had the last little strength left and moved in staggeringly.

The cave was dark, and I couldn't see my fingers. The ancestor of the human race walked in the dark. Sometimes he bumped and bumped into something, and he didn't know what he bumped into, and he kowtowed and broke into blood. Sometimes he felt that the darkness was vast and boundless, as if it was another world, except for himself, there was nothing around him.

He spent a lot of time and could not get out of this vast darkness. Not to mention subdue the two insects in the circle and the square.

Just as he was in confusion, two voices came from the darkness.

One said, "Human, do you want to come and capture us too? Go back, even if you have the power Gu, it is impossible."

Another voice said: "People, you retreat, we will not take your life. Even if you have the help of the Wisdom Gu, you may not be able to find us."

The ancestor of the humans fell to the ground weakly, panting: "The Power Gu and the Wisdom Gu have long been away from me. I have no lifespan and are desperate. But as long as I still have a glimmer of hope in my heart, I will not give up!"

Hearing the words of the ancestors, the two voices fell silent.

After a while, he said, "I understand, man, you have handed your heart to Hope Gu. You said you will never give up anything."

Another voice continued: "So that's the case, we'll give you a chance. As long as you say our names, we'll use it for you."

The ancestor of the human race was stunned and wanted to call out two accurate names from the sea of ​​words. This was simply a needle in a haystack.

Moreover, he didn't even know how many words there were in the names of these two Gu.

The ancestor of the human race hurriedly asked Hope Gu, but Hope Gu didn't know.

The ancestor of the human race had no other way out, so he had to bite the bullet and say the name. He said many names, which took a long time, but there was no response in the darkness, and it was obviously wrong.

Gradually, the aura of the ancestor became weaker and weaker. In this cave, he moved from old age to twilight years. It was like the sunset in the evening, gradually falling, and half of it had fallen to the horizon and became the sunset.

He brought less and less food, his brain became slower and slower, and he didn't have much strength to speak.

The voice in the darkness advised: "People, you are dying, let us let you go. You can climb out of the cave and see the last glance of the world. But if you offend us, as punishment, leave Hope Gu here for us to be your company."

The ancestor of the human clasped his heart tightly and refused: "Even if I die, I will not give up hope!"

Hope Gu was moved and tried his best to respond to the ancestors, emitting white light. A few white lights appeared in the heart of the ancestors.

But the white light was too weak to illuminate the darkness at all. Even the whole body of the human ancestor could not take care of it, and could only illuminate the chest.

However, the ancestor of humans felt an invisible new force pouring into his body from the Hope Gu.

He continued to speak and say the name. He was already confused and had many names mentioned before, but he couldn't remember them clearly. He said it again, wasting a lot of effort.

As time passes, life is gone, and the lifespan of human ancestors is not much left.

Finally, when he had only one day left, he spoke the word "master".

A sigh came from the darkness, and a voice said, "People, I admire your persistence. You said my name, and from today on, I will listen to your orders. But only when I am with my brother can I capture the entire world of Gu insects for you. Otherwise, it would not work by relying on my ability alone. So give up, you are dying, so why not use this world and take a last look at this world."

But the ancestor of the human race shook his head firmly. He seized all the time, continued to speak, and guessed the name of another worm.

As time passes by minute by minute, he only has the last hour left.

But at this moment, he accidentally said the word "rule".

In an instant, the darkness disappeared.

Two Gu appeared in front of him. As Hope Gu said, one Gu is square, called "rude". The other Gu is round, called "rude". Together, it is "rude".

The two Gu said at the same time: "No matter who they know our name, we will obey him. People, since you already know our name, we will use it for you. But you must remember that it is best not to let other creatures know our names. The more we know our names, we must subdue them at the same time. Now, you are the first to subdue us, and say your request."

The ancestor of the people was overjoyed: "Then I will order you to catch a longevity Gu for me first."

The two rules and regulations together to capture an eighty-year-old longevity Gu.

The ancestor of humans is already 100 years old. After taking this longevity Gu, all wrinkles on his face were eliminated, and his thin limbs were filled with toned muscles, and the breath of youth was emitted again.

He thrust a carp and jumped up.

He looked at his body happily, knowing that he had become a twenty-year-old young man again!

...

"That's all today. Let's go home, good grandson." The old man finished the story and finished drinking.

"Grandpa, let's continue talking. How did the ancestors of the people later?" The grandson refused to support himself and shook the old man's arm.

"Let's go, let's talk about it if you have time." The old man put on a hat and straw raincoat, and put a small trumpet on his grandson.

The grandparents and grandchildren left the inn, walked into the rain curtain, and gradually moved away.

"Rules..." Fang Yuan's eyes were faint, and he turned his glass and stared at the green bamboo wine in the glass, feeling quite touched.

The legend of the ancestor of humans is widely circulated in this world, and there are almost no one who doesn’t know it. Fang Yuan naturally has heard of it a long time ago.

But whether it is a legend or a story, it is different from one's own opinion. The two ancestors and grandchildren just regarded it as a story, but Fang Yuan could appreciate the profound meaning contained in it.

Just like that man's ancestor.

When he didn't know the rules, he would grop in the dark. Sometimes he stumbled and bumped, making his head bleeding and in a mess. Sometimes, he was vast and lost in confusion, without any direction or goal.

This kind of darkness is not simply darkness or darkness. Power, wisdom and hope cannot control it.

Only when the ancestor of the human world knows the "rules" and breaks the name of the rules, darkness suddenly disappears, and the ancestor of the human world welcomes light.

Darkness is the darkness of the rules, and this light is also the light of the rules.

Fang Yuan moved his eyes from the wine glass and looked out the window.

I saw that the sky was gloomy and dark far outside the window, the green mountains were green and the drizzle was flying like fog. Nearby, the high-rise bamboo buildings extended one after another. Two or three pedestrians on the road were covered with rain and muddy feet, either wearing gray-green straw raincoats or wearing butter cloth umbrellas.

Fang Yuan summarized in his heart: "This world is like a big chessboard. All living things are chess pieces, operating according to their own rules. There are rules in the four seasons, and spring, summer, autumn and winter are circulating in sequence. There are rules in the water flow, flowing to the lower places, and the heat air has rules, rising to the higher places. Naturally, people also have rules."

"Everyone has his own position, ** and principles. Take Guyue Mountain Village as an example. The life of a slave is low and the life of a master is high. This is the rule. Therefore, Chen Cui wants to cling to the powerful and powerful, and he has to leave his slave family even if he tries his best. Gaowan tries every means to please his master, and he relies on the power of others."

"For uncles and aunts, they are greedy and want to annex their parents' inheritance. The school's elders mainly cultivate Gu masters and maintain their own status in the school."

"Everyone has its own rules, every industry has its own rules, and every social group has its own rules. As long as you understand the rules, you can observers clear up, get rid of darkness and get light, deal with it in this, and be at ease."

Fang Yuan also thought about his own situation and had already made plans in his mind: "For Gu Yue Mo Chen, the ruler in the Mo family, it is to maintain the prosperity and interests of his own lineage. Mo Yan has made trouble for me, which is a broken rule. In order to maintain the reputation of the family, he will definitely not attack me. He may even take the initiative to compensate me."

"Actually, the Mo family is powerful and has been damaged by reputation. I am still unable to resist. But Gu Yue Mochen was afraid. He was not afraid of breaking the rules, but worried that others would start to break the rules with him. The juniors fought, and if the elders intervened, the situation would expand. If it affected the senior management, it would be a huge threat to the entire village. Gu Yue Mochen was worried and afraid that if there were other people to fight in the future, Gu Yue Mobei would attack his grandson Gu Yue Mobei. In his lineage, he was only a male. What should he do if he died? This fear might not even know about him. He just subconsciously wanted to maintain the rules."

Fang Yuan's eyes were clear, and he was as clear as the fire of the matter from beginning to end.

Gao Wan has no surname Gu Yue, he is an outsider or a slave.

What's the point of killing a slave by the master? In this world, it's very normal.

Fang Yuan killed Gao Wan. Gao Wan's death was not the key, the key lies in his master, the Mo family behind him.

"However, I gave me a box of corpses this time. I guess Gu Yue Mochen would interpret it as a compromise and threat. This is exactly what I want him to understand. If nothing unexpected happens, the Mo family will not pursue Gao Wan's death. Of course, if my qualification is one level higher and I am a B, the Mo family will feel the threat, and will be damaged by reputation, and will suppress my future threat." Fang Yuan sneered in his heart.

Power can be relied on, and weak can be used.

Although Fang Yuan was in the game at this time, he was also a chess piece. However, he was proficient in the rules and had the heart of a chess player.

Most ordinary people are just like Gu Yue Mochen or the old man in the school, but they only know their own rules, and they are like a mountain. It is so difficult to understand the overall situation and be proficient in the rules like Fang Yuan!

You must know the rules, just like the ancestors, trekking and wandering in the darkness, and wandering in confusion.

At this time, strength, wisdom and hope are not very effective. You have to spend time and personal enlightenment to gain experience.

The name of the two Gu was able to break the rules and took time to try it countless times under the breath of death.

Fang Yuan’s ability to be proficient in rules is also an experience accumulated in his past five hundred years.

Since his rebirth, he was confident that he could create a brilliant future. It was not because of the reappearance of the cicadas in spring and autumn, it was not because he had learned to save many secret treasures, nor because he had mastered the general direction of the future.

It is a life experience of dealing with people over the past five hundred years.

Just like the two Gu of the Human Ancestor, he can easily capture all insects in the world!

If Fang Yuan is proficient in rules and rules, he can be condescending and his eyes can penetrate the complex world. He may be peeled off or hit the nail on the head. I am proud of myself, and I am cold to see the people in the world like chess pieces, following their own rules and moving step by step.

Darkness is the darkness of the rules, and light is the light of the rules.

And the reborn demon has already walked in the light.
