Chapter 158 Saber-Toothed Tiger

It is said that the name of Theseus's magic association comes from this legend, and the most widely spread of Theseus is that they have a ritual to make themselves immortal, and this ritual is accompanied by the name of Theseus.

"Constantly replace the rotten parts of yourself to keep yourself intact forever?" Lu Li has already read the true meaning of this legendary story, which is the so-called law of longevity. People who have heard this story must have almost Everyone will understand, but if anyone directly follows this method, it will be death.

Not talking about the problem of implementation, the main problem in this method of longevity is, after you change your whole body, are you still yourself?

Some people may say that if the soul does not change, it will still be the same person, just like if the keel of a big ship does not change, it will still be the same ship. But what if the keel also rots, and the soul also appears and gradually begins to wither? Replace the soul and replace the keel, so are you still yourself?

If the things abandoned by the big ship are put together again, then one of the ships, the completely replaced ship, and the reassembled ship that was originally replaced, which one is the original ship?

Lu Li inexplicably remembered a phrase he had seen before: flowing water does not rot.

It is said that the river water is constantly flowing, so it will not become rancid. All this is because the river water is always in motion, and the river water is different every moment. Why is it not the case for people? Can you confirm that you are yourself a second ago?

So the issue of the ship of Theseus involves a philosophical issue: Who am I?

If you don't solve the problem of who I am, you can never guarantee that the you who completed the immortality of Theseus will still be you.

However, Lu Li put aside these philosophical questions first. His main purpose now is to go through the big iron gate in front of him and go to the Theseus Magic Society later on. From the stories of Theseus, he learned that it is to constantly replace the decaying place. , to keep yourself forever new.

And the current big iron gate is composed of dozens of iron railings like iron spears, and among the iron railings, most of them are black and shiny, like brand new, but there are three iron railings that are rusty.

Grabbing the three iron railings, he pulled them out with a movement of his hand. The big iron door also opened automatically, revealing the calf-high grassland scene inside. The three iron railings in Lu Li's hands had already turned into powder and flew back to their original positions. It was turned into an iron railing again.

Lu Li raised his eyebrows, walked in, and the door closed behind him, leaving only an endless prairie in front of Lu Li's eyes, the calf-high grass covered too many things.

The original big iron gate behind the wall has all been transformed into a single dark gate with a map on it. In the center of a large grassland is a dark gate, and to the east of the gate is a castle.

"Are you telling me to go east? This is still within the scope of the test?" Lu Li thought for a while, and walked towards the east of the grassland. He didn't know how long he had walked. Because he had pumpkin trousers, Lu Li didn't feel that his energy was wasted. , but the front has been a boundless green grassland, people have to wonder if this road is correct.

If it was someone else, they might have thought that they had been fooled by the map on the gate and had returned the same way. It was just that Lu Li couldn't feel the negative emotions, so without the interference of negative emotions, he believed in his own judgment and never turned back.

Finally, Lu Li also gradually arrived at the destination. A clear and meandering river passed through the grassland and surrounded a majestic and magnificent castle. The destination seemed to be right in front of him, but the test came again.

More than a dozen long-toothed saber-toothed tigers jumped out from the grass and surrounded Lu Li, leaving only a gap in the back. The leading saber-toothed tiger stood up. It glanced at Lu Li and said, "This This piece of grassland is the territory of our sabre-toothed tiger family, we have reached an agreement with Theseus, anyone who passes by here must leave a price."

"You have delicate skin and tender flesh, so we only charge for one thigh." The leader of the saber-toothed tiger said, he took out a rusty hatchet from somewhere, and threw it in front of Lu Li.

"Hurry up, you can choose the left leg or the right leg, or you can go back the same way, or cut off one leg as our food." Another saber-toothed tiger spoke, licking its tongue and said: "I think Your meat must be delicious."

Holding the oiled paper umbrella, Lu Li looked at the dozen or so saber-toothed tigers around him. He could feel that these creatures had good magic power in their bodies. They were not ordinary creatures, otherwise it would be impossible for them to speak human words Surrounded by Lu Li, this is a little troublesome.

"There is no other way." Lu Li poured mana into the Dragon Bone Umbrella, and the black mist containing the dark shadow magic power floated up and began to slowly cover the surrounding area. Without the direct sunlight, Lu Li stretched his body and put it on the umbrella. The oiled paper umbrella in his hand was closed, and a short black blade was condensed in the other hand.

"I'll return this to you." With a kick, he picked up the hatchet, swung his foot, and kicked the handle of the hatchet. The hatchet shot directly at a saber-toothed tiger, breaking its long teeth and piercing through it. The mouth of the saber-toothed tiger fell to the ground, blood continued to flow out of its mouth, and it made a whining sound.

As soon as he made a move, a saber-toothed tiger pounced on Lu Li's back. Its body shone with blood-red magic power, and a shocking aura rushed into Lu Li's heart. As long as Lu Li was stunned for a while, he would die tragically in the mouth of the saber-toothed tiger. .

But the next moment, it seemed as if a shadow composed of countless tentacles rose from the ground. The shapeless shadow squirmed non-stop and turned into tentacles. The saber-toothed tiger jumped behind Lu Li to vent its karma and couldn't move forward. Its body Trapped by the shadow, like flowing liquid, the shadow poured into its body from various places on its body, blooming flowers of thorns.

Lu Li also raised the oiled paper umbrella in his left hand, and sent a saber-toothed tiger flying towards him. His body kept jumping, and the short shadow blade in his right hand swiped the saber-toothed tiger back. launch around.

The saber-toothed tiger that had swooped in front of Lu Li was taken aback for a moment, but was hit by Lu Li's left hand with an umbrella, hitting the head like a watermelon exploding, red and white splashing everywhere, and a saber-toothed tiger pounced out from behind, its long teeth carrying huge With a strong bite force, he bit Lu Li's left shoulder.

Black flames bloomed, and the saber-toothed tiger was burned into a torch, howling in pain, its vitality was evaporated by the flames of anger, and it was burned into charcoal alive. The next two big teeth are still on the shoulder.

These saber-toothed tigers are not weak every time, and there is a kind of scarlet magic in their bodies. The most important thing is that there are more than a dozen of them, and they cooperate with the attack, which also caused Lu Li to be injured again.
