Suddenly, Yang Yi felt a stinging sensation in his eyes, and couldn't help but cover his eyes. After a while, he felt that the stinging sensation was no longer so obvious.
When I put down my hand, I saw that it was covered in blood.
Yang Yi was a little shocked. He didn't expect that just by looking at these eight words, his eyes would bleed.
"Can you understand these words?"
Seeing Yang Yi covering his eyes, Ola asked in surprise.
Many people passed by him, but no one could understand the words written on the light door.
Yang Yi is still the first.
What I have to admit is that the surprises this young man brought to me far exceeded those of those people, and he could even be said to be the first person.
"yes." .??.??
Yang Yi nodded, "Senior, don't you understand the words on this?"
"Of course I can understand it."
Euler nodded and said, "But you can understand, it really surprises me."
"Maybe it's because your current level is enough for you to understand these words, so it doesn't matter if you can understand them."
Euler smiled and said, "Okay, let's move on."
With that said, Euler waved his hand. Suddenly, Yang Yi felt as if he was wrapped in a soft force, and then the whole person appeared at the exit of the seventh floor.
In a flash of light, Yang Yi had reached the eighth floor.
When Yang Yi opened his eyes, he only found that he had arrived on a grassy field.
The grassland was full of cattle and sheep. The grassland was as high as Yang Yi's waist. Yang Yi glanced around and found no one.
Seeing that the cattle and sheep seemed to be lining up and walking in a certain direction, Yang Yi subconsciously raised his heels. After walking for who knows how long, the cattle and sheep finally stopped and began to spread out and graze everywhere. Yang Yi looked to the right and saw a thatched house standing there, with a small river next to it.
Next to the river, there was an old man wearing a raincoat sitting. He held a fishing rod in his hand and seemed to be fishing.
Seeing this, Yang Yi walked to the old man's side and stood quietly.
Looking into the river, I saw a few red and black fish swimming around next to the fishhook in the clear water. They seemed to be hesitant, thinking about whether to bite or not.
The old man also saw what was going on in the river, but he did not speak. Instead, he kept his eyes closed and fell asleep, as if he didn't care whether the fish would take the bait.
Two hours passed quickly. The fish swam away again and again, but no fish took the bait.
In the blink of an eye, four hours passed, and the old man remained calm, as if he were a stone statue.
And Yang Yi also stood quietly on the spot, saying nothing.
It was just that he had some doubts in his heart. Why could the old man sit calmly and calmly for so long? Wasn't he anxious?
The day passed quickly.
Under the night, the old man sat there quietly, and Yang Yi stood with him. I don't know how long he stood there, and the sky turned white, and another day passed.
Two days have passed, and three days have passed.
Yang Yi stood calmly beside the old man all the time. Finally, on the morning of the fourth day, a red fish couldn't hold himself back and bit the hook.
The old man slowly opened his eyes, and with a gentle lift, the fish was immediately pulled up.
“Good concentration!”
The old man smiled slightly
, "This fish is given to you."
With that said, the old man took off the fish and threw it to Yang Yi.
Yang Yi subconsciously stretched out his hand to catch the fish, but found that the moment the fish landed on his hand, it turned into a majestic source of energy and poured into his body.
His realm has improved by three points at this moment.
"Thank you, senior."
Yang Yi bowed and saluted.
The old man chuckled again, "Young man, that's good."
"Answer a question for me. If you get it right, I will send you to the ninth floor. But if you answer it wrong, you have to stay here and fish with me. When you catch it, you will go up again."
Yang Yi nodded, "Senior, please speak."
The old man asked, "What does eternal life mean?"
Hearing this, Yang Yi fell silent.
What does eternal life mean?
When Yang Yi reached the realm of eternal life, he once thought that eternal life was the end.
But now, he is still facing the danger of dying at any time. Yanran and others once told him that only by reaching the Nine Realms can he achieve true immortality.
Eternal life, what exactly is it?
To have infinite lifespan, to have absolute power, or to control everything?
Yang Yi found that he couldn't answer this question at all.
After hesitating for a long time, Yang Yi said, "Maybe eternal life means eternal survival."
Hearing this, the old man smiled slightly and said, "You answered wrongly."
As he said this, with a flash of his hand, a fishing rod fell into his hand and was thrown to Yang Yi.
"Okay, let's go fishing with the old man."
Yang Yi grabbed the fishing rod in his hand, some He asked helplessly, "So, senior, what exactly is eternal life?"
The old man looked at the bottom of the river, where colorful fish were swimming happily.
"No one knows what eternal life means, so I don't know either."
Yang Yi was stunned.
So, what the old man means is that not knowing is the correct answer?
Seemingly aware of the entanglement in Yang Yi's heart, the old man said with a smile, "Okay, don't think about it too much. No one has ever answered this question correctly. Just go fishing with me!"
Hearing this, Yang Yi could only move a small bench, imitate the old man's appearance and sit next to the old man, gently swung the fishing rod in his hand, and then threw it towards the lake.
Seeing Yang Yi throw the fishhook into the river, a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of the old man's mouth.
Fishing is not that simple.
The moment the fishhook fell into the river, Yang Yi immediately noticed something unusual.
"Good weight!"
Yang Yi's expression changed, as if he was holding a whole world in his hands. The heavy force suddenly made him almost unable to hold the fishing rod firmly.
"You have to hold on tight and don't fall."
The old man said with a smile.
When Yang Yi heard this, he could only grit his teeth and hold on to the fishing rod in his hand to avoid being pulled down by the terrifying force.
At this time, Yang Yi couldn't help but laugh at himself for thinking too simply. He originally thought he was just catching a fish, but he didn't know that even fishing had become so difficult.
As the weight increased little by little, veins popped up on Yang Yi's arms, and almost all his strength was used on the fishing rod.
There was no time to be surprised by the quality of this fishing rod, Yang Yi stared at the river surface.
