As the waterfall in front of him got closer and closer, the path leading to the waterfall exerted more and more magical power on Shen Gu!
All the guesses he made before falling asleep last night appeared in Shen Gu's mind again.
"If everything here is false, then when I return to reality, I can regain the opportunity to grow old together with Su Zi innocently!"
When he thought of this possibility, Shen Gu couldn't help but continue walking towards "that position" in the waterfall.
However, just when his body was about to be soaked by the waterfall water, an extremely swift figure suddenly blocked his path!
"Do not impulse."
This figure is naturally an old man with a white beard.
At this time, he no longer looked as senile as before!
Although the three words he just said to Shen Gu were gentle, when he spoke the next sentence, his tone was extremely solemn and serious:
"Don't be stupid, the water that hasn't fallen into the lake is even worse."
"As long as you get to that "position", regardless of whether you decide to leave this world or not, the system in your body will definitely disappear!"
The word "disappear" instantly caused Shen Gu's feet to stand firmly on the spot.
"All right!"
Shen Gu softly uttered these two words, then sat down with his legs bent.
A soft cushion instantly appeared under him, which was conjured by the old man with the white beard.
Then he changed himself into another one, then sat side by side with Shen Gu and persuaded:
"Even if there is another world beyond the waterfall, once you get there, you will become an ordinary person again if you lose your system!"
Seeing that Shen Gu didn't respond, the white-bearded old man simply said what he thought was the most important thing:
"I understand that you want to go there to be with Su Ziqing again."
"For young people like you, material wealth, reputation and status will indeed be considered worthless compared to love under certain circumstances!"
"But even if you pass through this waterfall, you can go back to the past as you wish."
"Do you think Su Ziqing in that world would still fall in love with you without the system?"
"Stop dreaming!"
"wake up!"
"You wouldn't have been able to get her attention in the first place."
"Let's talk about the most critical final in your process of winning her heart, "Who can become a multi-millionaire?"
"Without the system, you can defeat such a powerful super academic to win the championship?"
"impossible!"
“Without a system, you wouldn’t be able to reach the finals!
"
Such a "slap in the face" made Shen Gu feel very embarrassed, but he could not begin to refute.
Since that island variety show, Shen Gu has fully realized that "without a system, it is difficult for them to like me."
So now that the old man with the white beard has exposed him so "mercilessly", his expression is still very calm.
"You're right."
Shen Gudan said calmly:
"Without a system, I am just an ordinary person who is mediocre in this and mediocre in that."
"No, even in the eyes of very good people, people like me are actually no different from "trash"."
Such "self-denial" words were completely unexpected by the white-bearded old man.
"Alas! I thought that even if you had thought this way for a long time, you would not say it directly in front of me."
After hearing Shen Gu's words, the white-bearded old man sighed heavily for him, and his tone after that sounded a bit like a "prophet of the unknown".
However, what Shen Gu said next made the white-bearded old man's face become extremely shocked!
Because what he said is:
"Actually, what difference does it make if you say it or not?"
"Anyway, you have always followed me and are always in my heart!"
Such words are equivalent to saying clearly that the old man with the white beard is Shen Gu's system.
But although the white-bearded old man could not hide the shock that appeared on his face, he quickly changed his expression and denied to Shen Gu with a smile on his face:
"What are you talking about?"
"I am the guardian of the "junction" between this world and another time!"
"If I were the system and Dongfang Yun wiped out the system ten years ago, I would naturally be dead long ago!
"
Facing the old man with a white beard who was hiding his expression but whose tone was getting higher and higher, Shen Gu responded with only three words:
"You feel guilty!"
These three words immediately made the white-bearded old man blush.
Sometimes if you want to "attack" the other party's psychology, it does not mean that the more excited the expression, the louder the volume, the more obvious the effect.
Shen Gu's attitude just now was clearly telling the old man with the white beard to stop pretending. No matter how he tried to quibble, he wouldn't believe it!
So the old man with the white beard forced himself to open his mouth, but he couldn't say anything he wanted to say.
After a few seconds, he turned to sighing:
"ok I admit it"
"Actually, I left here with "it"."
"It's just that when "it" leaves, it can use the identity of Dongfang Yun, but I can't turn into a human form when I leave here. I can only stay in the heart of the "destined person" in the form of a system!"
Although he had already made the correct judgment, Shen Gu still felt extremely uncomfortable when the old man with the white beard truly admitted that he was the "system".
Even if this "system" can only exist in some form similar to "consciousness" outside the mysterious valley, since it exists in Shen Gu's heart, then everything Shen Gu has done from getting the system to now, he is
knew……
Even though they were essentially "known", Shen Gu was still very embarrassed when facing the old man with a white beard who had turned into a human form!
"Cough, cough~"
Shen Gu coughed twice, trying his best to deflect the embarrassment with questions:
"Then when I came out of the valley last time, you were actually in my heart."
"When I threw Dongfang Yun's replacement off the suspension bridge, you clearly knew why I did that, but why didn't you remind me right then?"
"If you had told me at that time that he would probably not be thrown to death, and I would have killed him in other ways, wouldn't I have avoided the consequences that I have now?"
The old man with the white beard replied without any concealment:
"After all, "It" and I have lived together in this valley for ten years. Although I couldn't stop you from killing him, I really wanted to give "It" some hope of survival."
After saying this, he seemed a little afraid that Shen Gu would be unhappy about it, and then added this sentence:
"If I have a new master in the future, I will be so merciful to your replacement!"
This statement is equivalent to making it clear that the old man with the white beard is now unable to judge or control whether Shen Gu will leave this world!
At this time, the waterfall in front of Shen Shen no longer had the strong attraction to him before.
Shen Gu stood up again and walked towards the wooden house, saying as he walked:
"Actually, even if you don't stop me today, I won't enter that waterfall."
"I just acted like that just to test you."
"Even if I finally decide to leave, I have to wait until Mumu comes back, say sorry to her and say goodbye before leaving!"
