Gao Qi sounded like an old man. Lord Tree looked at Gao Qi's face again, and after confirming that he was just a young man in his early twenties, he couldn't help but say, "Why are you talking like an old man now?"
Gao Qi smiled happily and said softly, "Maybe it's because I'm young and mature, but maybe I really am an old man."
Lord Tree was stunned. He felt that Gao Qi was different from before, but he didn't know what was different about him.
Before the fight with the Arctic Horde, Gao Qi was like a young man full of vigor and vigor. He was young and hot-blooded, and he didn't care about the consequences.
However, after falling from the sky, Gao Qi was much calmer, and he looked like he had everything under control.
First, he didn't know how to deal with Anna, and then he calmly drove away Bernhard. During this time, Gao Qi spoke in an orderly manner, as if he didn't care about his injuries at all.
Most importantly, Gao Qi broke the window paper in front of all the paranormals. No, he broke the glass that blocked the paranormals' vision.
Lord Tree couldn't help but ask, "Do you have an old man with you?"
Gao Qi laughed, then shook his head and said, "Unfortunately, I don't. I am me, and I am still me. It's just that after the fight with the Arctic Horde, I finally understood a lot of things."
Gao Qi sighed, then looked at Lord Tree and said with a serious face, "Han Ruofeng is my big brother, Huang Fei is my second brother, and Professor Su is my teacher. These three people are very important to me. You must tell them what I'm going to say next."
Master Tree was stunned again. "Why do I feel like you're making your last wishes?"
Gao Qi said very seriously, "You do things as you please, but when you do things as you please, you are sticking to your heart. That's why you can become the number one person with supernatural abilities. Think about it carefully. The so-called supernatural ability is just a performance. The system of supernatural abilities is actually very close to the philosophy of Taoism. In summary, it's nothing more than the words' Taoism follows nature '."
Grandpa Tree swallowed his saliva and said with a blank face, "Can you … explain it simply?"
"Things are mixed together, and the Heavens and Earth are born. Solitary and desolate, independent but unchanging, moving around but not perilous, it could be the mother of heaven and earth. I do not know its name, but its name is Dao, and its name is Da Dao. The Great Sun is gone, gone is far away, far away is reversed. The Dao is big, the Heaven is big, the Earth is big, and so are the people. There were four big cities in the region, and people lived in one of them. Man follows Earth, Earth follows Heaven, Heaven follows Dao, Dao follows nature. "
Grandpa Tree opened his mouth. He looked at Gao Qi with a blank face and said softly, "I don't understand."
Gao Qi sighed helplessly and said softly, "The cultural gap is too serious. You have to take a good look at my Tao Te Ching in the future. Dao … is really too wonderful for words."
After that, Gao Qi looked at Grandpa Tree with a caring gaze and said, "In Chaoxi City's library, on the second bookshelf in the ancient classics section, there are a few Tao Te Ching books on the fourth shelf from the top. Remember, don't use Wang Bi's book, use Ma Wang's silk book. The one with the green cover has an annotation. Without the annotation, you might not be able to understand it."
Grandpa Tree nodded blankly.
Speaking of books, Gao Qi became more energetic. He said with a smile, "In Wang Bi's Tao Te Ching, Chapter 41, it says that great talents are slow to mature. However, the original text in the silk book says that great talents are slow to mature. Now that I think about it, the silk book's artistic conception is much higher. Think about it, isn't the phrase 'great talents are slow to mature' very similar to the awakening of superpowered people?"
Grandpa Tree was like a muddle-headed student. After nodding repeatedly, he said sincerely, "Although I don't really understand it, it sounds very powerful."
Gao Qi could not help but dance with joy. However, just as he was about to move his hand, he was pressed to the ground by Nadak. He could only wave his right hand and said, "Man follows Earth, Earth follows Heaven, Heaven follows Dao, Dao follows Nature. Think about it again. Is there anything in common with superpowered people?"
Grandpa Tree could only shake his head blankly. Gao Qi said anxiously, "Superpowered people are human, and exotic beasts are Earth. After a superpowered person obtains his superpower, shouldn't he first imitate and learn from exotic beasts? What about exotic beasts? Above exotic beasts are Holy Beasts, and above Holy Beasts are Divine Beasts, which are at the level of the Lord of Arctic Frost. Why is it that humans stop at your level? It's because you're lacking in the realm. It's in the realm of thought. Let me tell you, the power system of superpowered people is not just about power. Bernhard has gone down the wrong path. If you want superpowered people to become a complete power system, you must have a philosophical system as the core, and Daoism can perfectly connect with the superpowered system! "
After saying everything in one breath, Gao Qi said with a face full of excitement, "Speaking of which, do you feel very excited? Do you have goosebumps all over your body? It's clearly a power brought from another world by exotic beasts, but it can be completely compatible with Daoism. Don't you think that Daoism is really awesome? "
Grandpa Tree could only nod now, because he really did not understand.
The world was ending, and after the end of the world, there was another end of the world. Who the hell still taught Daoism?
Seeing that Grandpa Tree was trying hard to pretend to understand, Gao Qi finally sighed and said, "It's a pity that I don't have much time left, so I can't tell you too much. Otherwise, you would definitely be able to break through faster."
Grandpa Tree finally said, "Nadak is saving you. You look like you're about to recover, but why do you still look like you have to say your last words immediately?"
Gao Qi was silent for a moment, then he finally said with a helpless expression, "Everyone has their secrets."
"Uh, sorry, I won't ask then."
"But I can tell you that the battle you saw between me and the Lord of Arctic Frost wasn't complete. We even had a mental conversation and a clash of wills. Then, my mind and wills were severely impacted. The best outcome is that I will forget some things. The worst outcome is that I will become a vegetable."
Grandpa Tree was stunned. "What?"
Gao Qi continued, "As for the outcome, which is neither good nor bad, my power will disappear. This is my biggest secret."
"What did you say?"
Grandpa Tree was shocked, but Gao Qi was still smiling. "Why can I use magic? It's because after the second energy explosion, I found some magic runes in my mind. Some flashing magic runes exist in my mind. With these magic runes, I can use the energy core to provide energy to release magic. My situation can't be considered an epiphany. It can only be said that it was natural. But now, the magic runes in my mind are disappearing one after another, and I don't know how many will be left in the end."
"You, you, you … Why … Why are you telling me … this?"
"I didn't realize that you were stuttering before, so why am I telling you this? Because there are many things that can't be hidden, so I might as well be honest with you. "
Gao Qi's face showed a cunning smile, and he said, "You have to tell Han Ruofeng and Huang Fei everything I said, because I'm afraid that I will forget. Also, if I really become a cripple in the future, Grandpa Tree, you have to keep this secret for me. Also, you have to protect me. Is that okay?"
Grandpa Tree sighed, and then he asked curiously, "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you and keep this secret to myself?"
Gao Qi smiled and said, "Don't you understand? I'm telling you this because I know your character. A person who goes back on his words will not become a Class A Esper. On the other hand, a Class A Esper will not be a person who goes back on his words. I've seen through you, so naturally, I can entrust you with important matters. "
Grandpa Tree seemed to have understood something, and he did not move, staring blankly at Gao Qi.
Gao Qi continued, "You came because you were in the mood, so you came to find me. You have already achieved your goal by exchanging pointers with me, so you don't have to kill me, nor do you want to harm me. When you saw that Chaoxi City was in trouble, you couldn't bear to stand by and do nothing, so you extended a helping hand without hesitation, even if you didn't need to do so. This is what I meant when I said that you do as you please."
Grandpa Tree nodded and said, "That's right, I do as I please."
"You do as you please, but you are able to stay true to your heart. You are not tempted by benefits, and you are not moved by power. This is Daoist Wuwei, also known as Daoist Wuwei. Do you understand?"
Grandpa Tree frowned. His mind was in a mess. He seemed to have seen a door in the fog, but he could not reach it no matter how hard he tried.
Gao Qi sighed and said, "Remember, the supernatural ability is the body, and the mind is the use. The Arctic Lord used his mind to control the cold current, and then used the cold current to carry the mind. Do you understand?"
Grandpa Tree did not speak. He only stared blankly at Gao Qi. However, although he was looking at Gao Qi, his eyes were not focused at all.
Gao Qi had no choice but to shout, "Hey, hey, don't think about it, Grandpa Tree, Grandpa Tree!"
Grandpa Tree was startled, and he immediately asked, "What's wrong?"
Gao Qi smiled bitterly and said, "Don't rush. You should understand that more haste, less speed. What I said is just a guideline. You have to take it slow. At least read the Tao Te Ching first and figure out what Taoism means."
Grandpa Tree nodded and said, "I will study the Tao Te Ching when I get back!"
"Okay, Grandpa Tree …"
"Don't, don't, don't call me Grandpa Tree. You can just call me Dongfang Shu. I don't deserve to be called Grandpa Tree."
Gao Qi did not stand on ceremony and said, "Okay, then I will call you Brother Tree from now on?"
"Fire Grandpa, do you have any orders?"
Gao Qi said awkwardly, "You can call me A Screwdriver, or Gao Qi."
Dongfang Shu laughed and said, "Okay, I will call you A Screwdriver from now on."
Gao Qi said in a low voice, "This Nadak can heal my physical injuries, but she can't heal my mental injuries. Once my body recovers, my mental state won't be able to take it. It doesn't matter if you call it a coma or a deep sleep. Anyway, I don't know how long it will take for me to wake up. The situation in Morning and Night City is probably not good now. You have to help stabilize the situation in Morning and Night City later. Is that okay?"
Dongfang Shu said without hesitation, "Don't worry, I will definitely help!"
"I don't want any trouble in the future. The Red Square Tsar …"
"I told him that if he dares to speak nonsense, I will tear down his Red Square! As for Bernhard and Iron Tower City, anyone who knows your identity, I guarantee that they won't dare to say a word! "
Gao Qi was relieved. Then, he said sincerely, "Thank you, Brother Tree."
Dongfang Shu said solemnly, "I should be the one thanking you. You ended up like this because of me, so let's end it here. I promise you, as long as I'm alive, no one can touch you, and no one can touch Morning Dawn City!"
