We live in this world¡ªwe here include all creatures, humans, animals, plantsall living beings¡ªall need to follow the rules of this world.
Birth, old age, illness and death, metabolic reincarnation. The required conditions include sunlight, oxygen, nutrients, and temperature.
All these external conditions are collectively called ¡°rules¡±.
When there is a lack of water, plants will die, and after the plants die, they cannot produce oxygen. Then animals that need oxygen to survive, humans, will die
Everything has a cycle-like rule.
It's like a chain.
Basically, nothing can be outside this chain. Occasionally, there may be some special cases, and these special cases use some special means to hide themselves, hiding themselves from the control of the rules of this world
And this kind of special case is the pursuit of almost all higher creatures. It seems that all races hope to pursue some effects that can violate the "rules".
Women hope to stay young forever, emperors hope to live forever, warriors hope to be immortal
This is a beautiful hope, but for some capable people, with the conditions to pursue this hope, this hope can be turned into a reality.
"At this time, a "special case" appeared.
¡°For exampleDean Carmen.
¡¡
"The dean is about the same age as my father, but if you only look at your appearance, you seem to be my sister. If in a few years, when I grow old, I am afraid that some people will say that you are my sister. Some people believe it.¡±
Du pursed his lips and smiled, looked at Carmen, and said calmly: "This kind of magic that can reverse time must have paid a heavy price. Although I am not sure what it is, my father has told me since I was a child that if I want to break Rules always come with a price, and the greater the degree of violation, the heavier the price will be!"
Carmen was unable to speak anymore.
At this moment, Carmen, although standing on the same spot, seemed to be fighting tenaciously against some force. There were waves of faint golden light emerging from her whole body. But, just outside Carmen's body. But it seemed to be covered with a black cover like an egg shell, swallowing up the golden aura emerging from her body bit by bit!
Carmen seems to have tried her best to activate her golden light that is the power of the Holy Order.
The speed at which it can be devoured is getting faster and faster, and soon, this devouring speed has exceeded the speed at which Carmen can activate her power.
And the egg shell seems to be gradually shrinking, "pressing" down bit by bit. Getting closer and closer to Carmen's body
Du Weiwei's words still came unhurriedly: "Eternal youth seems to be a dream that every woman dreams of. I have always been curious about why you can do this. If you are a saint, then do It doesn't seem too strange at this point. But what I know is that your promotion to the holy level is only a recent matter. But your youthful appearance has been preserved for decades. I have always been curious about a person who has not reached the holy level. What methods do people use to embrace their youth?"
Beads of cold sweat broke out on Carmen¡¯s forehead.
Du Weiwei took steps lightly. He walked towards Carmen and stopped only three steps away from her.
The look in her eyes actually looked a little scary right now!
"It's really enviable. Especially as a woman." Du Weiwei seemed to stretch out his fingers, as if tracing the outline of Carmen's face from a few meters away: "With such a beautiful appearance, I believe that my father There is indeed a reason for my infatuation with you when I was young. Even I, a woman, can¡¯t help but admire such a beautiful appearance. Not only can you have such beauty, but you can also preserve her for a long time. , such a thing, I¡¯m afraid women all over the world will go crazy with jealousy.¡±
Carmen was already gritting her teeth. She seemed to open her mouth to speak, but she was unable to make any more noise, and her teeth were chattering.
¡°It is impossible to reverse the rules of time under the Holy Order for a long time. I know this very well.
It is not difficult if a twenty-year-old person has the appearance of a sixty-year-old person. Perhaps it is because some kind of magic has excessively consumed his vitality, and his appearance has aged prematurely. But if the situation is reversed, and a sixty-year-old person has the appearance of a twenty-year-old, it can only be achieved by using some means to reverse the rules of time. 1??'s magic may be able to do this, but it won't last too long. But your appearance has been maintained for decades"
Du Weiwei said this: "I have thought about all the magic, but I can't find an answer to this question. Although I am not the dean of a magic academy, nor a great master of magic, the Tulip family has hundreds of Years ago, the family's achievements in the field of magic research will never be much less than the reserves of the Magic Academy. Even I can't find an answer, so I think this matter is somewhat strange. Fortunately, I finally thought of it A possibility.¡±
Carmen gritted her teeth hard.
"This answer turns out to be in my hand." Du Wei smiled softly: "In my family, there are many treasures left by the first generation of the Duke, and there is one thing among them, which is very, very precious. This thing can It is used to solidify the form of something forever. This kind of thing is only found in my Tulip family in this world. I think the name of this thing Dean Carmen, you must be familiar with it."
When Du Weiwei said this, he smiled softly: "Fountain of Youth!"
¡¡
¡¡¡¡
"What does it mean that the time left in this world has entered a countdown? What does this mean?" Chen Daolin felt a little confused in his head: "Could it be that once your strength reaches a certain level, you will die faster? You won't be Is this what you mean?¡±
"Of course not!" Mung Bean Cake smiled bitterly: "Of course that's not what I mean! As far as I know, the strength of the elf in the north far exceeds the realm of the holy level. It is still alive and well! Of course, it does not mean that the higher the strength, the more powerful it will be. This is absolutely not the meaning of such ridiculous things as getting faster, but there is a special situation in the Tulip family."
"What special circumstances?"
"I've said it before. Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult for even a genius to achieve a breakthrough in strength in such a short period of time like every generation of Duke of the Tulip Family! They used special means and broke the rules. It¡¯s almost cheating! And I think there is a truth that you must understand: if you want to break the rules, you have to pay a price. The greater the degree of breaking, the heavier the price you pay!"
Chen Daolin touched his nose: "You meanpower that doesn't belong to you?"
"That's the power that doesn't belong to you!"
Mung Bean Cake sighed: "Is Dean Carmen a genius? How old does she need to be to become a saint? According to the 'normal' progress. How old do you think Du Weiwei is to become a saint? Okay, even if she becomes a saint at the age of twenty and It¡¯s not too much. Looking at ancient and modern times, there are many people who have become saints in their twenties. But what about people who have become realms in their twenties? How many are there? I can tell you, except for people from the Tulip family Almost none can be found! I can tell you that Daxue Mountain is famous for the emergence of monsters! For example, my teacher It can be said that his strength can be ranked in the top ten within two hundred years! Even if Du Wei back then may not have been my teacher's opponent! But how old was my teacher when he became a domain? Do you know?"
Chen Daolin shook his head.
"He was already" When Mung Bean Cake said this, his face suddenly turned red. He stretched out his fingers and counted them for a long time, then reluctantly said with a straight face: "Anyway Anyway, he is already very old!"
"" Chen Daolin stared at the dragon!
"My teacher has a total of three brothers. You must have heard of the other two Master Lan Hai, a famous scholar in the Roland Empire, whose real name is Lan Haiyue. When he has reached a good age, he is still a saint! Speaking of genius isn't he a genius? Another example is that the person who gave Du Wei the power seed was also my teacher's fellow disciple. He was at the highest level back then. The power seed had already reached the realm. That is to say, it is not just a matter of complying with the rules of borrowing, but a state where you can create and break the rules at will! And how old was he at the time Huh! How old was Du Weiwei? Her twenty-year-old girl could half Step into the field? If you tell me, will all the top geniuses in history be ashamed and commit suicide?"
"Wait, wait you said Lan Haiyue then your teacher?" Chen Daolin suddenly opened his mouth: "Is your teacher a thin, short man who likes to punch and kick people at all times? That guy? His name doesn¡¯t happen to be Chishui Dan, does he?¡±
Mung Bean Cake immediately jumped up and stared at Chen Daolin.
The two looked at each other, and then Chen Daolin let out a long breath: "Chishui Duanis this your teacher?"
"To be precise, it was the last teacher I had." Mung Bean Cake thought for a while: "I have three teachers in total, the first oneTeacher, he has been raising me since I hatched from the dragon egg. His name is Gandolf. "
Chen Daolin was shocked!
Gandalf! !
The first statue placed in the corridor of the Magic Academy is this one! !
For the entire magical civilization of the Roland Empire, this is a name that is well-known!
"Gandalf is your teacher Chishui Duan is also" Chen Daolin swallowed: "You said you had three teachers in total So who is the third teacher?"
"It's Du Wei."
"Me! I bought it last year"
Before Chen Daolin could exclaim, Mung Bean Cake already scratched his hair speechlessly and muttered: "Unfortunately, he taught me the shortest time, and he didn't actually teach me anything."
Mung Bean Cake sighed: "After I was born, according to their tests, my magic talent was very poor, which is simply a shame for being a dragon. But my physical body is very strong, almost immortal. They have always concluded that I learn magic. There is no future, so it is better to concentrate on practicing martial arts. So after teaching me for a while, Teacher Gandolf gave up and handed me over to Du Wei. But Du Weihe handed me over to Teacher Chishui Duan. The teacher¡¯s martial arts skills are very good, and I have been studying with him until now.¡±
Chishui Duan¡¯s martial arts are indeed very powerful, which Chen Daolin certainly knows firsthand.
"So Du Wei really didn't teach you anything?" Chen Daolin suddenly became very curious.
Whether it is Gandolf or Chishui Duan, although they are both very powerful guys, but in terms of popularity and legend, they are still not as good as Du Wei!
What did Du Wei teach this dragon?
"I followed him for several years." Mung Bean Cake's expression suddenly became very strange: "He taught me three things. One is to taste delicious food. During that time, Teacher Du Wei was concentrating on learning cooking. Every time he cooked Whenever a new food is produced, I will be allowed to taste it first"
"It's because you are a dragon. You are so strong that you won't be poisoned to death, right?" Chen Daolin guessed maliciously.
"I think so too." Mung Bean Cake muttered.
"Thenwhat about the second one?"
Mung Bean Cake tilted his head and thought for a while: "He tried to teach me a strange language. It was a special written language passed down directly within the Tulip family. At that time, he said that because this language is very rare in the world, only he Only the direct descendants of Tulip can learn, and as a dragon, I will live a long, long life. In order to ensure that this language will not be lost unexpectedly, even if the Tulip family is cut off due to some accident, it can be My dragon family, which can live for thousands of years, has passed down this language, so he forced me to learn this language."
Chen Daolin was speechless.
Teach Yilong to learn Chinese This time-traveling ancestor is really leisurely and relaxed!
"Have you learned it?"
"A little bit of fur." ??Mung Bean Cake sighed: "Later, I discovered that our dragon brain seems to be somewhat incompatible with this language. Especially many pronunciations. The structure of the dragon prevents me from pronouncing many sounds of this language. Therefore, Teacher Du Wei finally gave up the idea."
"Then what is the third item? Martial arts? Bow and Moon Dance? Jidu Luohu Instant Prison Arrow?"
"None of them." Mung Bean Cake's face suddenly turned dark!
The dragon¡¯s eyes suddenly showed a bit of sadness and anger!
Yes, that¡¯s right, just sadness and indignation? ? ! !
"Hehe spent several months teaching me how to play several games. One was to make fifty-four strange cards, and then"
Mung Bean Cake kept talking for a long time. Through his description, Chen Daolin's eyes were getting bigger and bigger!
"Youwait first." Chen Daolin cried sadly. He took a deep breath: "Are you sure that these are the things Du Wei spent several months teaching you?"
"Yes." Mung Bean Cake thought for a while.
Chen Daolin suddenly had the urge to go crazy!
In fact, Chen Daolin already knew it clearly when he was halfway through describing the mung bean cake. Du Wei spent several months teaching what this "skill" of mung bean cake is!
To put it simply, three words can explain it clearly!
This skill is called
fight! land! host!
¡¡
Chen Daolin suddenly felt a desire to look up to himThe urge to roar! !
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out out by his side, he doesn't teach him anything else, but teaches him how to taste food. Chinese, and Landlords? !
Du Wei! ! How boring are you? ! !
¡¡
Chen Daolin, who was in tears, didn't expect that he didn't know who the bastard was at the beginning. Instead of leaving a genius magic student sent by the magic academy, he let a guy with outstanding undead magic talent work as his cook
¡¡
¡¡¡¡
"The Fountain of Youth."
Du Weiwei smiled softly: "I think you should have quoted the Fountain of Youth when you were very young, right? And the source of the spring water naturally comes from my father."
Carmen¡¯s body was shaking more and more violently!
Under the black pressure, very little of her golden arrogance had been swallowed up, and she tried her best, but it seemed that she could not generate any more golden arrogance!
The magic power is almost exhausted!
"The Fountain of Youth is indeed a good thing." Du slightly squinted his eyes: "But it also has great side effects. As I said, breaking the rules always has to pay a price! Although the Fountain of Youth can It slows down the metabolism of life to the point of almost freezing! But there is also a side effect the person who takes it will lose the ability to reproduce! The metabolism of life is almost stagnant, so the ability to reproduce, which is one of the innate instincts of living things, will also be affected. deprivation!"
Du Wei sneered and continued: "I think when you drank this spring water, you must have rejected my father's courtship and pursued a long life. Otherwise, with my father's temperament, he would never take the initiative to give it to me. Your kind of spring water."
Carmen suddenly bit her lip hard. She used all her strength and suddenly yelled loudly!
"Yes! I made the request to him!! At that time. I just hope that I can have a long life and have enough time to reach the end of the magic road!! I only pursue magic and no longer consider other things. Anything! That¡¯s why your father gave me a bottle of spring water!! Du Weiwei, you, have you said enough!!!¡±
"No!!"
Du Weiwei roared loudly.
Her voice was actually full of
Angry?
¡¡
"Perhaps I should thank you! Because you rejected my father's courtship and did not marry him. That's why my father married my mother and I was born in this world. From this point of view, if you had made If I had another choice, maybe I wouldn't have come to this world." Du Weiwei's voice sounded at this moment. It sounds almost cruel and cold!
Carmen pursed her lips.
"But my father's fate has also changed because of this!"
"What?" Carmen asked, pale.
"My father once had a personal maid. You must be very familiar with this maid who has served my father for many years. Later, after my father got married, she left the family castle and married an imperial A nobleman, a baron. What is very interesting is that I heard a lot of things about my father when he was young from her, many, many, very interesting things.
The Tulip family is a very strange and interesting family. It can even be said that they are a somewhat perverted family!
Our family bears too many responsibilities! We are the pillars of the empire, we must guard the borders for the empire, and we must guard this empire! At the same time, our family still has to abide by the contract with the powerful enemy in the north. Protecting the human world from generation to generation!
The pillar of the Roland Empire? Ha ha! What a nice name!
And I prefer to be called the gatekeeper of the Roland Empire! !
We guard the gates of the Roland Empire, and one generation is not enough. Will this continue to happen for two generations, three generations, and every generation?
The throne? That's from the Augustine family!
Perhaps in the eyes of many people, the Tulip family is already glorious enough and has enjoyed too many privileges!
But no one has ever asked us if all this is what we want!
No!
Starting from the ancestor Du Wei, it seems that all this is a matter of course! ?
Do you know how heavy the burden this gatekeeper¡¯s responsibility has brought to the Tulip family?
Every generation of Tulip Dukes dare not slack off at all! Because only we know how dangerous a situation we face!
The enemy in the northHow powerful it is! !
Every generation of Tulip Dukes must break through the realm of strength as quickly as possible! Holy order? That's simply not enough! ! field? Maybe just barely able to resist! !
Do you know how much a heavy price you will pay if you want to break through your strength in the shortest possible time? !
You just drank from the fountain of youth, reversed your youth, and lost the ability to reproduce!
So, in a short period of time, the strength is forcibly upgraded to the holy level, or even to the realm So how much price will be paid for such unscrupulous breaking of the rules? ! "
Carmen¡¯s eyes widened.
¡°There is a curse that cannot be dispelled on the head of the Tulip family!¡± Du smiled sadly.
"When did it startprobably from the time of our ancestor Du Wei.
Ancestor Du Wei discovered a strange situation. As he grew older and stronger, he felt that he was rejected by everything in this world.
This feeling is so subtle that outsiders have no way of understanding it.
Ancestor Du Wei left a note and said that that feeling exists all the time!
Eating, sleeping, drinking waterevery time I breathed, I felt that even the air seemed to be repelling me.
It¡¯s as if there is an invisible force trying to ¡®squeeze¡¯ and ¡®pull¡¯ myself out of this world!
Moreover, this feeling will become stronger and stronger as the level of power increases!
The ancestor once asked others, asked other strong men of his generation.
But neither the elf on the Snowy Mountains nor the elf in the north felt this way.
The ancestor understood that perhaps, this was just a curse that fell on him alone.
For a period of time, the ancestors even gave up on cultivation, letting their strength stagnate at the original level and no longer progress. But when he reaches that realm, even if he doesn't take the initiative to practice, his growing understanding will slowly increase his strength! Just like a carriage that is already running and cannot stop!
The ancestor even lived a ridiculous period of time. During that period, he was even seen by outsiders as not doing his job properly and doing all kinds of boring things, just hoping to keep himself away from cultivation and the growth of strength.
But one day finally came. The ancestors still left.
He left one last note, which he left to his descendants.
He said in his notes:
The time has come, I can feel it myself. My realm finally broke through to the last step. But this feeling is getting stronger and stronger, and it can't be delayed for almost a moment. I think my time here is over. This world can no longer accommodate my existence.
Why don¡¯t Lao Duan and that sissy elf feel this way? Why hasn't Lao Bai ever felt this way?
I think the real reason is probably because I don¡¯t belong to this world in the first place.
¡So, ancestor Du Wei left.
¡°Those of us who stayed behind, none of us know where he went.
Even the people around him left with him. His wife, as well as several of his close partners, all disappeared into this world without any trace! The ancestors said it. If he leaves, he will definitely take everyone with him!
But the only problem is where they went, we have no way of knowing. "
When Du Weiwei said this, he deliberately glanced at Carmen.
Carmen gritted her teeth: "You tell me this. Isn't this the secret of your Tulip family?"
"Don't worry, you will soon forget everything I said today, completely forget it." Du sneered slightly.
Carmen¡¯s expression changed.
Du Weiwei was not looking at her. Instead, he turned to look at the shining star in the distant void.
That broom star.
She continued to speak slowly to herself:
"The ancestor and his descendants originally thought that this curse was only on the grandfather. But soon, later, after the ancestor's first generation Duke left this world, the second generation Tulip Duke, after his strength reached a certain level I found that I also encountered the same problem!
He began tobe ostracized by this world!
The air, water, flowers, plants, and even the light seem to exude a sense of exclusion.
"It's likea thorn stuck in the flesh. It must be pulled out to make people happy."
And the people from the Tulip family are the thorns!
There is an invisible force that will persistently try to get the Tulip family members out of this world and to other places.
This power will become more and more obvious and intense as the strength of the Tulip family increases.
The second-generation Duke didn¡¯t know it at first. He was Du Wei¡¯s son! It is the hope and pride of the entire empire, no, the entire human race! He never slacks off and works hard to improve his strength. Because he has the seed of power left by his ancestor Du Wei, the second generation Duke can practice very quickly!
He is hailed as another generation of genius!
But fate once again fell on his head!
What¡¯s more, his fate is even more tragic than that of his ancestor Du Wei!
When our ancestor Du Wei left this world, we believed that his strength had broken through the realm and reached above the realm early! Evenhas reached the realm of the legendary gods.
So, Du Wei left, taking his wife and partners with him.
However, when it came to the second generation of Dukes, although the second generation of Dukes were also geniuses, they were not as good as their ancestor Du Wei.
When his strength reached the realmhe left this world.
When he left, he was alone!
One night, it suddenly disappeared completely, leaving no traces!
His wife cried about it for a whole month! "
Du Weiwei's face was a little distorted, and he whispered: "This is a curse that falls on the Tulip family, or in other words, it is a shackles!
It seems that our bloodline should not exist in this world at all!
This fate continued to fall on the subsequent generations of the Tulip family!
Generations of people leave important messages and notes. By my father's generation, things were basically figured out.
As long as the direct bloodline of our Tulip family reaches the realm of strength, the time to stay in this world will begin to count down!
The fastest is three to five years, the slowest. It won¡¯t be more than ten years!
Unless, we choose not to improve our strength
However, as the pillar of the empire, how could the Duke of Tulip not have enough strength to protect himself from the powerful enemies in the north?
"It's like drinking poison to quench thirst. You know it's poison, but you still drink it!"
Even though we know that once our strength improves, we won¡¯t have much time left, we still have to pursue strength!
"The people who left may not have died We believe that the great ancestors should have gone to another world, another dimension But what about the people who stayed behind?
The wife of the second Duke. He died of illness after crying for a month!
My motherthe same is true!
No one likes separation, especially this eternal separation!
Irresistible, unstoppable parting!
While we try our best to guard this empire, we can't prevent our destiny from reaching this inevitable step!
And my father once thought about giving up! "
Hearing the last sentence, Carmen's eyes suddenly showed a trace of sadness.
"give up?"
¡¡
"I heard from the maid next to my father that my father was not very enthusiastic about cultivation before. Especially in the years when I met you, he almost abandoned his personal cultivation. His strength is better than that of all previous dukes in history at the same time. Much worse. Because he seemed to want to avoid that terrible curse.
He is not like his ancestors. Leave this world soon.
The most important reason is that he knows you! Dean Carmen.
The maid told me that my father once said this in private after drinking. Even if he cannot become a strong man, as long as he can stay in this world for a long time and stay with you for a lifetime, it is the greatest happiness for him.
have a look! How ironic!
A tulip duke who has power at his fingertips. In order to stay with you forever, he is willing to give up his power, family mission, and responsibility He even plans to give up the seed of power. Give it to other members of the family! He even planned to give up his title as Duke of Tulip! ! He had even secretly selected a candidate, who was a relative of the family and also had the blood of the Tulip family, but it was not a direct line.
My father planned to give up the seed of power and the title of Duke of Tulip to that person.People, then stay with you for life.
"But you, on the contrary, gave up love, rejected love, cut off this relationship, and rejected your father in order to pursue the path of magic, pursue powerpursue long life.
Isn¡¯t this ironic?
Just after you rejected your father your father chose to get married, and married the woman chosen by the family, my mother.
He was disheartened and chose to take on the mission of the Tulip family. Return to the life path that a tulip duke should have.
You should remember that in the winter of that year, after your father got married, he sent someone to give you the bottle of the fountain of youth, right?
That is the last thing he does to help you fulfill your wish!
?????????????????? What you may not know is on the same day that the Fountain of Youth is given to you.
Father used that seed of power!
Entering the road to becoming a strong, then finally left the way. "
When Du Weiwei said this, a bright smile suddenly appeared on her face!
The smile is extremely bright!
"Now, I think you should understand something, right?"
Du Weiwei smiled broadly, but his eyes were so cruel!
"Everything I have done is to end the curse of the Tulip Family! End the heavy mission and burden of the Tulip Family!! The Tulip Family no longer needs to be the gatekeepers of others! From now on, we will only guard the gates for ourselves! The Tulip Family We no longer need to walk the road of strength, be forced to experience separation, and experience the pain of farewell like a loved one being torn apart! We no longer need to count the time we stay in this world and live miserable lives!"
When Du Weiwei said this, he raised a few fingers: "This is all I want to do! First, I will end the Augustinian dynasty! The Tulip family will become the new emperor! Second, I will kill all the enemies on this continent , all ended in my generation! From now on, my descendants will no longer be forced to become strong or forced to improve their strength! After all the enemies are eliminated the Tulip family will not have to experience these fates again! We Can we be like the royal family of the Augustine family today! The curse of the domain? No more necessary!! Be it the Holy Order or the domain! If all the powerful enemies are eliminated by methen the heavy shackles of the Tulip family will be , and gave up completely!
Dean CarmenSo, no matter what, I will never give up! This is a heavy shackle for generations of my Tulip family! Do you think I will be persuaded by others casually?
Whoever stops me will become my enemy! ! "(To be continued)r1292
