Chapter 997 997: Gongxi Old Clan Land, Mountain and Sea Holy Land (Part 2) [
Gong Xiqiu's answer disappointed Shen Tang.
He shook his head: "I don't know..."
Jimo Qiu left in a hurry, and even the return date was only approximate. Gong Xiqiu had no idea what the other party was going to do when he returned to his old clan. The only thing he knew was that his brother was going to pick up something.
"There is no special contact method in your clan?"
The origins of the Gongxi tribe are mysterious, and they may have similar methods.
"Perhaps the high priest knows, but I am not the high priest." Gong Xiqiu said that this problem was too difficult for him.
Shen Tang took a deep breath and suppressed the anxiety in his heart.
Gong Xiqiu said: "Mama has a lot of good men under her. Call them all over and join us. Even if it's a wheel battle, Hao can kill that old guy Yunda. After all, he is not his true self. He is an incarnation. It’s okay to deal with…”
Shen Tang was almost speechless.
"Feng En, you are really smart."
The current combat power of our generals, let alone one of Yunda's incarnations, can be severely damaged even if Yunda himself comes, but the question is, can these people be combined to form a game? She does not need to guard against her ally Gao Guo? She does not need to be on guard. Neighbors on the southern border?
Don't these places need to be guarded by generals?
She issued a decree to everyone, dragging these people to the Northern Desert battlefield to form a bureau to kill Yunda, ignoring border security? If only things were that simple. The fact is that the neighbors are all unreliable, and the border is being attacked Take a nap, the neighbor's troops may be ready to move, and stretch out their hands to test the attitude of Kang State. Especially the neighbors on the southern border!
After all, Wu Xian, an old man, still needs some face.
He himself has a hesitant character and is in the late stage of choice difficulty. When he makes up his mind to attack Shen Tang's hometown, maybe Shen Tang will finish the Northern Desert. The neighbors on the southern border are different, they have all been attacked by Zheng Qiao , it is said that the torment was miserable.
How miserable is it?
Zheng Qiao was beaten to half a life by the Allies during the Dragon Slaying Bureau. These neighbors could not muster decent troops to threaten the border. They were all in civil turmoil and had no time to take care of themselves. When the turmoil completely passed, they would either split or merge into a new one. Countries in the world came together to review their accounts and found that many things were not done by themselves, but by someone who framed them and sow discord between them!
I checked and it was found on Zheng Qiao's head.
At this time, the grass on Zheng Qiao's grave was already taller than his own.
The Kang State, commanded by Shen Tang, integrated most of Zheng Qiao's inheritance, maintained friendly relations with Wu Xian's Gao State, and opened a mutual trade with Beimo, its centuries-old enemy. There was great interest among the three parties to play together. The neighbors could only Look and blink.
Liquidation is impossible.
But the losses suffered must always be recovered.
It doesn't matter if Zheng Qiao is dead, but is the person named Shen still alive? The same applies to asking for these interests from people named Shen! However, Shen Tang is different from Zheng Qiao. Zheng Qiao has not cared about internal affairs in the past few years since he came to power, and only wants to make everyone have a hard time. , while Shen Tang only thought about domestic affairs and let his subjects live a good life. In the hands of Shen Tang, the state of Kang became more stable, prosperous, and had strong soldiers and horses. Naturally, the neighbors felt sad.
The stronger Shen Tang is, the more sense of crisis his neighbors will feel.
Let Kang Guo continue to grow bigger and stronger?
Neighbors would hide a kitchen knife under their pillows when sleeping, for fear that one day they would wake up at night and look around to see that Kang soldiers had arrived.
In order to ensure their own safety, it is almost the consensus of all the countries in this continent to join forces to kill their neighbors who have the potential to grow.
Therefore, Shen Tang attaches great importance to the border.
Gong Xiqiu's proposal is simply child's play.
"Mama is obviously praising me for being smart, but why does it sound a bit harmful?" Gong Xiqiu doesn't like to use his brain, which doesn't mean he has no brain. He came closer and looked at Shen Tang, asking for an explanation, "Every time you Even calling me 'Feng En' is unkind."
Mama usually calls him by his first name and surname.
Once you call him by his first name, the taste will be different.
Shen Tang said sincerely: "You are my close friend, how could I hurt you? I am not hurting myself by hurting you? Are you right?"
Gong Xiqiu gave her a look and realized it himself.
His eyes looked like he would believe this nonsense? But because Mama was under a lot of pressure recently, he was considerate and not to expose her. Damn it, it's a loss, who made Mama both a close friend and a sacred object?
Gongxi Qiucha changed the topic and promised Shen Tang: "If there is any news about big brother, I will inform Mama as soon as possible."
Shen Tang could only accept the current situation: "Yeah."
Why didn't Jimo Qiu come back as promised?
The real reason is a bit absurd, but very true.
Because he is lost_(:з」∠)_
Ever since he was adopted by his teacher and taken with him, he has never been alone - the master and apprentice first rescued Lin Mo, and the two became three, wandering all over the continent, from the northwest to the center, traveling to various countries during this period, and making several Years later, he accidentally rescued three people from Fang Yan, and the team expanded to six people. After that, he came from Qi State to Kang State, and Jimo Qiu followed the main force of Kang State to Yaoriguan and Tuocheng.
In all these years, I have never really acted alone.
Some experience is naturally insufficient.
He told Gong Xiqiu that he would be back in "as short as one or two days, or as slowly as three to five days." He estimated based on written data, but he forgot that he had never been to the old tribe's land. These are not the worst, the worst What's bad is that both Wudan warriors and Wenxin scholars are walking terrain-changing machines. Over the past hundred years, the iconic mountains and rivers left by their ancestors have been updated several times.
The map in Jimo Qiu's hands is still version 0.
If he can find a place as expected, then he is a ghost.
While on the road, I inquired and got lost. Three or five days had passed and I still hadn't found my destination. How could I return as scheduled? The only good thing was that the map gave me the exact direction. As long as Jimoqiu's direction was not crooked and it was close to the territory of the old tribe, I could get it back. I sensed its existence. After many twists and turns, I finally locked it.
"It's too hard to find... Teacher, you didn't tell me in advance that the entrance to the old clan was hidden so deep..." There is a special barrier near the clan, and all spiritual methods are prohibited. You can only walk in with two legs. The higher the level of strength and the deeper the cultivation level, the stronger the suppression encountered, and the physical strength consumed is twice that of ordinary people.
Jimo Qiu used the wooden stick as a trekking pole, climbed mountains and waded in rivers, and finally came to a dark cave with a disgraced face. The high priest's robe was relatively long, and the hem of his clothes was stained with a lot of mud and weed seeds.
He wiped his sweat and regained his strength at the entrance.
The cave is two people high and three people wide, and the atmosphere is dry.
Jimo Qiu walked for an unknown amount of time, and finally reached the end, where he was blocked by a tightly closed circular door. The door was in the shape of a yin and yang fish, with various seals of dim light on it. Jimo Qiu inserted a wooden stick into a
Keyhole.
As the lines on the gate lit up one by one, dispelling the darkness, a strange female voice also sounded inside the cave: "Who is coming?"
Jimo Qiu said: "The Gongxi tribe belongs to Jimo Qiu."
The light of the texture changes from bright to dark: [Please verify.]
A stone pillar half a man's height rose from the ground in front of him.
There is a groove in the shape of a palm on the stone pillar.
Jimo Qiu heard the teacher explain the process, put his right hand on it, and concentrated his divine power into it. As the divine power poured out, the gray stone pillars peeled off their original ugly and low-key appearance, revealing the purest imperial green inside. The lines on the door became bright again.
After a few minutes, the female voice replied: [Verification passed, welcome Jimo Qiu home.]
Then there was the slight sound of rocks rubbing against each other.
The huge stone door in the shape of a yin and yang fish slowly opened.
The air behind the gate is astonishingly rich in the aura of heaven and earth.
A trace of surprise flashed in Jimo Qiu's eyes.
He asked: "Can I take the liberty of asking the girl's identity?"
Step into the world within the door.
Wherever he passed, the mountain walls lit up with light patterns one by one.
Although I heard the teacher say it countless times, I still felt that this scene was magical when I saw it with my own eyes. I am afraid that it is something only a god can do. Jimo Qiu walked forward, and the female voice that came into his ears always kept a distance, as if the voice owner had no trace.
Everywhere.
The female voice replied without emotion: [Jimo Xiaolang knew it was presumptuous, so he shouldn't ask. However, this question is not unanswerable. I have no name, but if I really want to say it——]
The other party deliberately lengthened his voice to whet people's appetite.
Jimo Qiu subconsciously stopped and waited for the answer.
And the answer is——
The voice switched to a male voice.
【I am a relic of the old times, a tombstone.】
Jimo Qiu asked in surprise: "Who are you?"
【Oh, these are all me, Xiaolang, don’t panic.】
It switched to an old voice and a child's voice. Jimo Qiu tried his best to interpret the content with what he knew and came up with the answer - this mysterious man had excellent oral skills and first-class imitation skills.
Jimo Qiu asked: "Are you a living person?"
The other party said: [No one can live for a thousand years.]
The implication is that I am not a human being.
Jimo Qiu was not surprised by this.
Similar questions were asked by the teacher back then, and the answers he gave were exactly the same as today. He can also be found in the earliest family records. The teacher also guessed that in the era when this "person" existed, I am afraid that in the family history
Before the land was established.
But, if you want to ask about its past before the clan was established?
The other party had only one answer.
[Data is damaged and cannot be queried.]
Jimo Qiu didn't believe Xie and asked him again, but he didn't change a word.
He didn't give up and asked again: "Then this damaged data... can it be repaired? Is there anything you need my help with?"
The other party's voice seemed to have a slight ups and downs.
【you?】
【You can not.】
【No one in this world can fix it.】
Jimo Qiu: "How will you know if you don't give it a try?"
The female voice replied "Because there is no value in trying" and stopped talking to Jimo Qiu. He shouted twice but there was no response. He guessed that the other party had left. The layout of the old clan area still maintained the same appearance as before the clan moved, and even
Even the palaces and pavilions have not faded. Many houses maintain a sense of life, as if the owner just went out and would be back in a few hours.
Jimo Qiu searched around and found the high priest's residence.
The entire clan is roughly circular.
In the middle is the old house left by the Gongxi people. The architectural style here is not much different from the outside style. The outside of the old house is surrounded by fields of various families, which are now abandoned. Further outward, the fields extend all the way to the foot of the mountain shrouded in the mist of the mountains.
.
Jimo Qiu is standing here, and the outline of some mountain peaks can be vaguely seen. The mountains are centered on the old clan land and surround it in the middle.
No one can climb these mountains.
Not to mention large living people, even small animals that approach will be bounced away by Shanlan. If they enter forcibly, they will be repelled. Every few years or months, Shanlan will change drastically. It will not take a few days to return to calm.
There is no rhyme or reason to the changes.
One of the duties of the high priest is to observe the changes in the mountains.
It is said that if you find the pattern of change, you can contact the realm of God.
Jimo Qiu looked at Shanlan and murmured.
It seemed like there was something very attractive to him.
Vaguely, he felt that these mountains were familiar?
【all fake.】
The female voice that had disappeared for several hours suddenly appeared.
Jimo Qiu subconsciously asked: "Why?"
The female voice said indifferently: [Because the "gods" have fallen and been killed, there are no gods here. The changes in the mountains have nothing to do with gods, and they have no rules. The so-called place behind the mountains... is just a pile of lost existences.
Tombstone of meaning.】
"Tomb, tombstone?"
[Every mountain you see is a tombstone.] The female voice seemed to sigh, [These are the tombstones that those people... set up for themselves with their own hands. Until the sea changes, they stand here alone, no one cares about them, no one cares about them.
, was forgotten.]
"What do you mean by...? Don't play riddles!"
[Data is damaged and cannot be queried.]
Even if Jimo Qiu was so impatient, he said with a hint of annoyance: "You are really like the teacher said, when asked something you don't want to answer, you just use this excuse..."
The female voice replied: [Data is damaged...]
"It can't be queried, right? I'm not curious..."
The other party wants to say that he doesn't want to know yet.
The female voice said with a hint of helplessness: [I really don’t know... Time has really passed for too long. To the outside world, it has been a thousand years? Or is it two thousand years? No one maintains it regularly. If this place was not special, how could you still follow it?
Talk to me?]
Jimo Qiu: "One or two thousand... so long?"
He immediately thought of something and felt pity.
"You've been here for so long?"
【I can only be here.】
Jimo Qiu decided to have a better tone and attitude.
He walked straight to the secret library of the old tribe.
But just halfway through, he discovered something. He squatted down and observed carefully: "Are these footprints new?"
Judging from the size of the footprint, it should be that of an adult male.
The soles of your feet are wider than your own.
The female voice said: [Yeah, new.]
He added: [Left it a quarter of an hour ago.]
Jimo Qiu was stunned and almost didn't react: "A quarter of an hour? But this is not my footprint. A quarter of an hour ago-"
A sudden guess popped up in my mind, and my hair stood on end.
There are still living people in the clan!
After the clan land is sealed, only the high priest can come back!
Apart from yourself, no one should be able to come in again in this world!
"Who is that person?"
Jimo Qiugang asked.
The murderous intent approached from behind.
He suddenly dodged to one side, then retreated and distanced himself, and then he saw clearly the person who attacked him - that person was indeed the size of an adult man, dressed entirely in black, with a black cloth covering his face, and only one pair of eyes exposed.
Jimo Qiu avoided it, but the man suddenly approached again, and the majestic martial energy rushed towards his vital points like an overwhelming force!
Jimo Qiu threw out his wooden stick and raised a barrier to resist.
He said sternly: "Who? How dare you trespass into the Gongxi clan's land!"
A trace of surprise flashed in the eyes of the man in black.
Before there was any response, a water dragon fell from the sky.
Wherever the water dragon passed, everything was frozen.
Half of the mountain was frozen in an instant!
Jimo Qiu was greatly frightened.
Here comes another one!
"Who are you? If you don't answer, you will keep your life!" He swung the wooden stick and raised his hand to form a spear. Martial energy surged out from his meridians and turned into armor on his body!
(ノ￣▽￣)
Tang Mei’s bumpy and twists and turns life in overcoming the tribulation——
Just say that the Tiandao household registration has a grudge against Du Jie, no matter how simple it is, it can collapse.
