Chapter 2800: Question and Answer
Who hit you?
How did you become like this?
Are you a dragon or a snake now?
How did you become an egg?
Even if you have condensed this body, why do you run?
You are here, so who is the guy who lives in my ear?
Zheng Qing stared at the little green dragon at his feet, and a series of questions came out of his stomach. If eyes could speak or questions had weight, this little thing would definitely be smashed to death.
But there were thousands of questions he wanted to ask, but when it came to the end, he only asked the most direct and unexpected one -
"How come you are so big!"
The young teaching assistant looked at the little green dragon, which was about a foot long, and could not hide the amazement in his tone. At the same time, he used his fingers to gesture the appearance of the "snake egg" that was not much bigger than a soybean, and looked suspicious: "Did you really break out of the shell from it?"
The little green dragon continued to nod perfunctorily.
There was no "moo" this time.
"I don't understand..."
"What's there to not understand?"
The little dragon drooped his face and interrupted the boy's questioning unhappily, saying in a mature manner: "After Sakyamuni was born, he took seven steps on the ground and became a great wizard; it took Jehovah only seven days to create a new world. It has been seven or eight hours since I got out of the eggshell. Although not as fast as them, it's surprising that I have grown several feet?"
The little blue dragon's words sounded as simple as "putting an elephant in the refrigerator" - open the refrigerator door, put the elephant in, and then close the refrigerator door - but Zheng Qing would not think it was really that simple.
Just like the story of the "Griffin Giant" he had heard from his teacher, whether eating like a giant, having the same capacity as a giant, or seeing the world with the eyes of a giant, measuring the world with the footsteps of a giant, etc., these are not what ordinary wizards can do.
"In other words, you will continue to grow up?" Zheng Qing keenly understood the unfinished meaning of the little blue dragon.
This time, Xiaolong still just nodded.
But the expression on his face changed from the initial perfunctory to a little more reserved.
As if to say, what's the big deal?
"How long will it take for you to grow to the maximum?"
"One or two months?" The cyan dragon tilted his head, pondered, and finally gave the boy an uncertain answer, which also made the boy's heart sink slightly.
The more he knew about the magic world, the clearer he was that many seemingly natural results were not as seamless as they appeared in the process of development.
In another month or two, it would be the final exam.
That was when he graduated.
This guy happened to grow to the maximum in that time period. If there was no calculation behind it, he would definitely not believe it. Thinking of this, the boy subconsciously raised his head and glanced at the huge figure outside the cliff and between the clouds.
He thought that this glance would not get any response like before.
Unexpectedly, when he raised his head, the blue full moon and the red full moon fell on him at the same time.
This is a feeling that is difficult to describe. In theory, the light of a being like the moon will cover an area of tens of millions of miles at the same time, but at that moment, Zheng Qing felt that the two moons had become searchlights, converging the originally scattered focal lengths on one point.
And he was standing at that point.
Before this, Zheng Qing had felt the "weight" of the eyes of high-level wizards more than once, whether it was Su Shijun, Professor Yao, or the big demons in the Black Prison World, but the weight of their eyes was ultimately limited. At best, it just made people have difficulty breathing, stagnate thinking, and feel panic and shortness of breath.
The eyes of the person in front of him were completely different.
Inexplicably, the witty saying "give you a look, let you experience" emerged in his mind.
The thoughts of ordinary wizards are like bubbles. Even if they are piled up like a mountain, they have no weight. A breeze will blow and they will disappear. But the thoughts of high-level wizards are like substance, heavier than Mount Tai. Just a brief contact of the eyes makes people feel like the world is overturned and Mount Tai is pressing down on them.
As the world spun, a strange thought violently fell into the boy's mind.
It was like a mountain smashed into a pond.
Zheng Qing did not feel overwhelmed or collapsed. On the contrary, he felt like he was thrown into a huge hot spring. The warm and comfortable spring water washed his sore and tired soul with just the right force, making him drowsy.
——I hit it.
——It was part of my former obsession, so the condensed true body naturally has a very high status. Even a small green snake will become a real green dragon under the blessing of my status.
——It is now a dragon but not a dragon, a snake but not a snake... It is it, a unique existence.
——It was born from my obsession that was destined to be erased. It is the vitality hatched in the deepest part of death. The opposite is the movement of the Tao. Death and vitality are a pair of eternal twins. And the reason why vitality is vitality is because it hates death. Because of disgust, it wants to escape. So there is that egg.
——Maybe it thinks I will destroy it, so it escaped.
——What escaped was only the vitality hatched by obsession, and the real obsession still remained in the depths of your soul. It was just that without vitality, it turned into a mechanical concept that was mutually obliterated by the power of your forbidden spell.
——Everything has a ray of hope.
——It took advantage of the moment when Yageneg descended to drag the little god into the sea of consciousness, and used a substitute. Although Yageneg was called a god, his status was not high. He was instantly wiped out under the dual pressure of obsession and forbidden spells. And the vitality born from obsession turned into this snake egg with the remaining power of Yageneg.
——After stripping off the "free will" born from obsession, what remained on the forbidden spell tree was the will to mechanically execute the task of killing. But vitality cannot be completely wiped out. Without the current green dragon, obsession will eventually give birth to new vitality. And the meaning of its existence is to devour. When new vitality is born from obsession, it needs to devour them one by one. This is why I let it return to you.
There is no sound, only the answer.
But it does not prevent Zheng Qing from understanding who the "I" and "it" in the answer refer to.
Explanations one after another, like water splashing in a spring, bloomed in the boy's mind, answering all his confusions.
Including what he thought of, what he didn't think of, and what he didn't dare to think of.
Until the end, a drop of water that jumped out of the lake of his heart did not bloom, but dragged a wisp of the boy's mind and threw it directly into the outside world, like a sharp arrow, piercing the head of the green dragon, and finally landing on a leaf.
