When Liang En came to the entrance of the temple with pomegranates, the battle was over.
Just when Liang En was killing the human-turned-monster in the hall, the enemies who had previously fought back and forth with Liang En and his team suddenly became stiff and motionless.
Naturally, the team members would not miss this opportunity. They took the opportunity to eliminate these enemies. When Liang En walked to the door with the crystal pomegranate, they had already started collecting loot.
"Fortunately!" Liang En came to Liu Shoubei and cupped his hands, then took out the crystal pomegranate. "This is the core of the cave sky. With this, you can control the entire cave space. At the same time, the origin of this cave space is also recorded inside."
As Liang En had guessed before, this cave was indeed brought by the ancient Egyptian priests, but it was only at the end of the fourth century AD.
At that time, Christianity emerged in the West, and the Roman Empire declared Christianity as the state religion and closed all pagan temples within its borders, including the ancient Temple of Hathor.
Since Hathor had fallen for nearly a thousand years at that time, the group of clergymen who relied on the remaining power of the gods to survive were naturally unable to resist and had no choice but to give up everything and leave.
However, as a temple that has been passed down for thousands of years, even if the gods have fallen for thousands of years, there are still many good things left, such as this cavernous space called the Love of Hathor.
This space was modified on the basis of an original sub-plane when the gods were still there, and a huge amount of time and energy was spent on it, turning this space into a cave similar to the real world.
Compared with ordinary cave worlds, the biggest feature of this cave world is that it can absorb energy from the surrounding environment and form a self-circulation. Even if the input of external energy is stopped, it can still last for a long time.
What's more important is that when the gods were still there, Hathor asked Horus to completely seal the cave world and make a core that could control the entire space.
According to the information recorded in the core that looks like a crystal pomegranate, as long as you have this core, you can build space gates in most places in the main world to connect to this cave world, or close the original space.
Door.
However, when the last clergy of Hathor fled, the Christian Church also focused on them. With the bloody battles along the way, the number of people became smaller and smaller, and they had to flee eastward along the Silk Road, which had almost collapsed at that time.
.
In the end, after losing 4/5 of their personnel, this group of people finally followed the southern line of the Silk Road out to sea from the west side of the Indian Peninsula, then headed east along the coastline, and finally successfully landed at the mouth of the Yangzi River.
However, the East was not a paradise at that time. Large-scale nomadic invasions occurred not only in Europe, but also in Asia. The Jin Dynasty had been driven out of the Central Plains by the nomads and became a small and peaceful dynasty.
Because of the chaos caused by the war, the Yangtze River Estuary was not as prosperous as it is now, but was a desolate salt-alkali flat. Therefore, when the group of clergy who had lost the blessing of the gods came here, they soon suffered from fatigue and illness.
died one after another.
Especially in that case, after the remaining clergy installed the last space gate of Hathor's Love, they also asked everyone to build a new temple. In the end, the harsh environment and cruel labor prompted a rebellion.
Those slaves and those low-level armed personnel took advantage of the darkness to launch a sneak attack, and then fought with the church's upper echelons who had only the last bit of strength remaining.
This battle lasted from dark to dawn. In the end, only a few people survived and walked into the surrounding jungle, while the rest of them were exposed to nature and were slowly cleaned up by nature.
.
So when the pioneers came to this land decades later, they only found the weathered platform foundation, which was almost unrecognizable, and built their own defense facilities with the help of this small highland.
As time passed day after day, year after year, this land and the treasures under it were completely forgotten by people, until the first generation founder of the Pu family accidentally obtained a document and found it.
Clues of the exiles back then.
However, the head of the Pu family, who had become famous at that time, had no interest in such a cave space that could not produce extraordinary resources, so after completing a simple investigation, he recorded his findings in the family's secret notes as a descendant passed down by the family.
hand.
As a result, after the Pu family was completely liquidated for their betrayal, Pu Yanshou, a remnant, found this note and used the remaining members of the Pu family at sea to plan for many years, and finally successfully used the pirate attack to enter this space.
It's just that he didn't realize that his ancestors only explored this space hastily, so some records were incorrect. For example, the records believed that the core of the space was placed in the largest and most gorgeous pyramid.
As for the escape route, it is a one-time charm left in the notebook by the ancestors of the Pu family, which allows them to leave this world and go to a safe place.
According to Pu Yanshou's original plan, he would get the core as quickly as possible and leave the space, and then take away the space through the core.
Unfortunately, none of their ancestors could understand ancient Egyptian writing, so in the end they completely missed the treasure, but it helped Liang En and the others.
"Opening up territory and expanding territory! This is what we have done to open up territory and expand territory." After understanding the knowledge about this cave world passed on from the core, Liu Shoubei, who was leading the team, had a smile on his face.
For the soldiers of the New Song Dynasty, the greatest achievement was to open up new territory. Especially when they were able to obtain such a fertile land that could be cultivated at any time, the achievement was equivalent to acquiring ten times as much wasteland.
And when he walked into the palace, an even bigger surprise was waiting for him - the guy with a big hole in his chest was Pu Yanshou who launched a large-scale pirate attack this time.
The reason why Liu Shoubei is so happy is also very simple, because according to the military merit regulations of the New Song Dynasty, under the current situation of forming a team, any results obtained by the team will be credited to his command.
After sighing at his good luck, Liu Shoubei began to examine the corpse on the ground, and soon he took off a handful of silver rings from the other person's finger.
"This thing should be yours. According to military law, items captured by a practitioner after fighting an enemy practitioner should belong to the winner."
A very simple silver ring was thrown over. Because the original user was dead, Liang En easily opened the ownerless ring.
The space inside the ring is about 300 cubic meters, and most of it is empty. However, there are three boxes in the corner, two of which contain a lot of weird equipment, and the third one contains various items.
Various written records.
After briefly scanning with his mental power, he found that these written records were all related to alchemy. It seemed that the pirate leader had his own side business besides piracy.
"Hey, what is this?"
Just when he was about to read these words carefully later, he suddenly discovered to his surprise that his mental power had vaguely scanned an existence that didn't seem to exist at first.
