Barrier of Light

The room was full of scarlet blood, stimulated by the ancient text formation, radiating out in layers.

The three people at the center of the formation seemed to have become a whole through the invisible spiritual link.

At this moment, they should be immersed in "comprehension of ancient texts"...

But Gu Shen opened his eyes.

Hooper stared at this scene blankly. He didn't understand why Gu Shen woke up.

At this time, Gu Shen should be meditating.

No matter how fast you gain enlightenment, it still takes time.

Unless...there is no enlightenment.

"actually."

"From the first time we met, I felt something was strange."

Gu Shen, standing in the center of the formation, slowly lifted his palm from "Ian's" palm.

The old man and Chu Ling are still in the dormant stage of spiritual connection. Understanding ancient prose is not serious in nature. This spiritual connection is equivalent to the transmission and exchange of knowledge, so the spirit exuded by the two at this time The breath is still very soft.

"You should be only thirty years old, which is the age when you are young and vigorous... Why do you exude an aura of twilight?"

Gu Shen looked at Hooper and said calmly: "Although all the twilight energy in you has dissipated after I presented the 'letter' and met again, the intuition of a spiritual extraordinary person will not go wrong. If you have always maintained With his "twilight-heavy" temperament, maybe I wouldn't be suspicious, but it was because of his "fleeting" that I paid special attention."

Hooper was silent for several seconds and said, "Mr. Gu, I don't understand what you are talking about."

"At this time, there is no need to call it that."

Gu Shen spoke calmly and broke through the disguise: "Think carefully about the 'things' that happened after we met. Haven't you found those unreasonable things yet?"

unreasonable?

Hooper's pupils constricted and he began to think over it in his mind.

What's unreasonable...

There should be no problem with the previous story. How many years did this young man live...

"An old man who is too old to speak can only sit in a wheelchair. Only by wearing a special spiritual link device can he convey a ray of his own thoughts."

"Can such a person really be considered a 'living person'?"

Gu Shen turned back and glanced at the old man sitting in the wheelchair.

He said softly: "In this case, the description of the living dead would be more accurate. Every move he makes is like a puppet, a puppet. The person who really controls the right to speak is actually you...even wearing the You need to do things like instruments. You can easily insert your spirit into the equipment. He can't even say a word, he can only sit."

Under the huge contrast in mental strength, it is actually not difficult to accomplish all of this.

"You want to say that I control 'Ian'?"

Hooper seemed to have heard a joke.

"Yes, it has appeared again...the second unreasonable place is here."

Gu Shen said: "When we first met, you flatly refused to let us enter the courtyard. At that time, you directly called 'Ian' by his name... Although you never called him that again, I am still very puzzled. Your teacher is an antique-level bachelor who is famous in Central Continent, why do you call him that?"

"Then 'that person' reminded me."

Hooper was startled again: "That person?"

"The test subject who escaped from the 'Guwen Society Experiment'."

Gu Shen paused and said quietly: "He told me that people who have never seen him with his own eyes should not make rash judgments... Before leaving for Central Continent this time, I had not even seen 'Ian', the university student, with my own eyes. Shi's information was kept in the upper city. Because he lived too long and was so secluded from the world, even the [Deep Sea] could not find his information over the years. No one knows what 'Ian' looks like."

When I saw a young man pushing a wheelchair, sitting in the wheelchair was an old man who was so paralyzed that he couldn't help himself.

Everyone will subconsciously think that this old man is Archmaester Ian.

But perhaps, the truth is just the opposite.

"Don't you think what you're saying is ridiculous?"

"Reality is often more absurd."

Gu Shen said calmly: "I think you are the real 'Ian Leonard'."

"You lied when you first entered the cellar. The research on the 'forbidden ancient text' was not as you said. It only studied a wedge. Just because the correct 'ancient text' was deciphered, the one you took out at that time A stack of drawings can contain key information just right."

"You also lied about Huolin's story. There is no way to verify the old events in the laboratory, but you concealed the real reason why he was studying hard at Holy Cross College."

"The real reason that pushed Huo Lin to devote himself to self-cultivation was none other than the 'ancient text' collected in this basement... This is a forbidden ancient text that contains the 'ultimate power', so it was ordered to be destroyed by Turing. It's just that The reason why you are reluctant is probably because you have tasted the sweetness of this ancient text."

There was a long pause.

Gu Shen said word by word: "If my guess is true, and if you are really Ian who has lived for one hundred and twenty-one years, then the power corresponding to this forbidden ancient text should be the 'immortality technique'."

The forbidden technique that Xiao calls "the most powerful" can make a creature like him pursue it so crazily.

I'm afraid the only thing left is immortality.

Xiao wants to defy the extraordinary iron law of "living forever".

Similarly, if Huo Lin, who made a big mistake in the experiment and killed his fiancée, wanted to make up for his regrets, only the legendary "immortality technique" could create a miracle.

And the most important evidence to support this conjecture——

It was this "lifeless" young man in front of him.

The bloody light all over the room was all his "handiwork". He had bled and carved blood more than once, and his recovery speed was astonishingly fast. This was no longer the power of a normal transcendent.

"You...did you guess all this?"

"Hooper" listened to this quietly, and he looked at Gu Shen seriously and asked.

This question is equivalent to an answer.

"That's right."

Gu Shen silently took out a broken pendant and shook it in front of him. "Hooper" didn't know what this pendant meant, but he vaguely guessed that Gu Shen probably used some divination techniques.

"As expected of a key."

The young man's voice regained its vicissitudes of life again, and he praised him lukewarmly.

Unexpected.

Since the other party didn't deny anything.

Gu Shen raised his eyebrows.

The young man put his hands in his pockets and quietly watched the blood swaying all over the room. Perhaps because he had lived for too long, he was too lazy to fight for many things. Since it had already happened, he might as well accept it.

The longer a person lives, the more he will understand a truth.

Everyone has a set of views on the world in their hearts. This set of views will gradually become fixed with age and will eventually stop changing. The set of views belonging to "Ian" was established more than 20 years ago. The dust has settled and will not change again.

"What is stored in this room is the ancient drawings of the 'immortality technique'."

Ian said calmly: "It's just that it's incomplete."

He casually picked up a thick pile of drawings from the table, and his eyes became a little sarcastic: "These drawings have taken me countless years...I have deciphered them all. Every piece of paper in this room, I deciphered every word, but when I put them together, I only got incomplete power."

He spoke angrily and threw up the stack of drawings.

"Alan Turing took away the key drawings! He left beyond the Great Wall and even took away the secret of 'immortality'!"

The flying pieces of paper danced wildly in the air, stained with a layer of blood.

This time it was Gu Shen's turn to be silent.

After revealing the truth, the young man spoke in a low voice, "Do you know how Alan Turing grew up? Do you know how all of his fantastic ideas were realized one by one? You know that in the ancient prose society, in the beginning Who is supporting it?”

"it's me!!"

He slapped the case hard and asked: "I have given so much to him, I have given so much to the Classical Classics Society... At the last moment of my life, he took away the 'life-saving' thing. He once said that I was treating him The best teacher! You see, this is how he treats me!"

The room was filled with blood.

Gu Shen asked coldly: "Then how do you treat others?"

The young man was stunned.

If we say... the "Hooper" standing in front of him at this moment is actually Ian who lived one hundred and twenty-one years.

Then the one sitting in the wheelchair is the student who serves him.

Everything makes sense.

Those words he said subconsciously while squatting in the yard pulling weeds.

["One, Ian doesn't see strangers. Two, Ian doesn't know you.\
