I don't know how many strong men died in this valley. The more Gu Qing thought about it, the more surprised he became, and his heart nervously raised to his throat.
Parting through the grass, he saw a blazing bonfire hundreds of feet away. Next to the bonfire, a man with disheveled hair sat, grabbing the thigh of an unknown monster and "sizzling" it on the fire.
As it roasts, it emits bursts of attractive aroma.
eccentric!
Gu Qing secretly muttered that an immortal cultivator like him had already reached the state of fasting and didn't need to eat anything at all. Isn't it strange that this man actually barbecued meat here? He hesitated for a moment and walked out of the grass, respectfully
He saluted the man and said: "Junior Gu Qing, thank you senior for saving your life."
Hearing this, the man turned his head and parted the long hair hanging on his face, revealing a pair of eyes, as bright as stars and extremely clear.
What a face this is!
The scars on it are scattered all over, like nasty worms. The muscles are shaking slightly, and dozens of evil worms are squirming together, which makes people feel frightened.
There was even a scar that stretched from the upper left corner of his eyebrow to the lower right corner of his mouth, almost splitting his entire face in half.
It's a blessing to be able to survive.
"Oh, you shouldn't have come here." The weirdo sighed, turned his face away, and continued to focus on roasting his own meat, seemingly no longer paying attention to Gu Qing.
Gu Qing's heart relaxed, and he could see that the other party was undoubtedly a human being. Meeting a human monk here was much better than meeting a monster. What's more, since the other party was willing to save his life, that is to say,
He will not be in danger to himself in the short term.
"Why?" Gu Qing frowned.
"After you come, it's impossible to leave." The weird man sighed and shook his head, "I have been trapped for more than ten thousand years and have never found a way to leave."
"More than ten thousand years?" Gu Qing was speechless.
"Is it very long? Hehe, when you get used to everything here, maybe you won't think so. Sometimes, a moment can be very long, and ten thousand years - but it can be very short." The weirdo said meaningfully.
Gu Qing didn't understand the meaning of this man's words. But this man's eyes seemed to be able to see through the separation of life and death in the human world.
"Senior, how did you get in?" he asked.
"If I said that I came in voluntarily, would you believe it?" The weirdo looked at Gu Qing with a playful look, and a rare smile appeared on his face.
Ask yourself, Gu Qing really doesn’t believe it.
Who is willing to enter a place of imprisonment and self-imprisonment? Unless this person is mentally abnormal, he would do such a crazy behavior.
But he really saw the word "crazy" in this person - scars all over his face, weathered long hair, unruly eyes...
"I believe it." Gu Qing replied seriously, then changed his tone and said, "But I don't know the reason why you entered here, senior. Can you tell me?"
"Haha, you are the first person in ten thousand years to believe what I said." The weirdo laughed heartily, seemed to be in a good mood, and clapped his hands and said.
He grabbed the barbecue in his hand, broke it with both hands, broke the leg of the beast, and threw half of it to Gu Qing. Then he stuffed the other half into his mouth and chewed it up. The aroma spread for ten miles, and it was plump and juicy. Even Gu Qing...
People who have been fasting for more than a thousand years can't help but move their index fingers when they see it.
He looked at the barbecue in his hand, pulled off a small piece, put it in his mouth and chewed it gently for a few times. The aroma instantly filled his mouth.
"You can swallow this beast meat, and you have finally lived up to my hard work. Hehe, if you want to survive here, you must learn the most basic rules of survival here. Monsters eat people, why can't people eat monsters?
?The law of the jungle, either you die or I die. The reason why our human race has turned from its peak to its decline is that there are too few people who understand this truth." This weirdo was full of emotions.
"Thank you, senior, for your guidance." Gu Qing felt awe-struck.
"You must be wondering why I took the initiative to enter this prison space? In fact, the reason why I came here is to find an answer." The weirdo sighed.
"An answer? What answer? Have you found it?"
"Perhaps you have heard someone mention a legend. Hundreds of thousands of years ago, a war of unprecedented scale broke out between the immortal and demon clans. This battle was truly earth-shattering and affected every monk.
It even affected the lower realms. The entire war lasted for tens of thousands of years. During this process, the powerful immortals disappeared one after another, and even the number of other powerful people who fell was unknown.
After this war, the human and demon clans maintained peace for more than ten thousand years, but later, for unknown reasons, conflict broke out again... Hehe, in this way, there were wars and peace, and the two sides were entangled with nearly three hundred thousand people.
Years have continued to this day. The strength of our human race is getting weaker and weaker, while the monster race continues to grow and develop, squeezing our living space little by little. The root of all this is because the human race has lost
The protection of the powerful immortals has greatly damaged their strength. If the powerful immortals of the human race are still there, the situation will definitely not be the same." The weirdo said with hatred.
"This junior has also heard people mention this matter. However, this junior is of low strength and doesn't know much about these things." Gu Qing touched his nose and said perfunctorily.
Although he is very interested in this ancient legend, he will not spend any energy on researching it, because after all, it is a thing of the past, what does it have to do with him?
What he has to deal with is how he can survive. As for the battle between humans and demons, he should let the taller ones support him first. After all, he does not have the ability to support such a big situation independently.
"Hmph, you don't even know the history of your own family, how can you deeply understand the responsibility you shoulder? If I had known this, I would never save you." The weirdo was furious and scolded.
Gu Qing was startled. He just said casually, but he didn't expect him to have such a big reaction. However, being stared at by this weirdo's bloodthirsty eyes made him feel uncomfortable all over. His rich experience made him instantly
Made the most correct choice: "What the seniors have taught me is that the juniors have realized their mistakes."
He lowered his head and admitted his mistake, but he didn't think so in his heart.
"Admit your mistake? Hey, I'm afraid you're telling the truth, right?" the weirdo said sharply.
"Ahem, what does senior mention about the powerful immortals have to do with the answer you are looking for?" Gu Qing coughed lightly and quickly changed the subject.
If you continue to be asked, the other person might get so angry that he slaps you to death without asking any questions!
Naturally, his little cleverness cannot be hidden from this weirdo. However, the weirdo has been imprisoned here for thousands of years, suffering from loneliness and loneliness. Now that there is someone who can listen to him, he is so ecstatic that he can't wait to burst into his heart.
I have been holding back countless words and spouting them out at once, so I don't care about these small things.
"The immortals are so powerful and immortal. How easy is it to kill them one by one? Therefore, I suspect that they are not dead, but imprisoned in a corner of the immortal world. I am here.
, just to find their whereabouts." The weirdo didn't hide anything from him and told the truth.
"Why did you choose this place? As far as I know, there are countless strange and dangerous places in the entire fairy world, and some places are even more dangerous than here." A trace of doubt flashed in Gu Qing's eyes.
"Of course I know what you are talking about. It makes sense for me to choose this place. In the war that year, countless monks from the immortal world monsters and beast tribes fell. Among them, many monks were only physically destroyed, but their souls were not.
was preserved. Hundreds of millions of souls gathered in the west of the fairy world, wailing and crying all day long, turning into fierce souls that could not be dispersed. Over time, resentment gathered, and a special world was formed there. This new world, although
In the fairy world, it still has its own independence. This is the origin of the underworld.
Although the avenue is boundless and the underworld is formed by the condensation of resentment, it is a fact recognized by the fairy world, but I suspect that there must be some mysterious force behind it. And this mysterious force must be powerful if it can create the underworld on its own.
Incomparable, even... even more than the powerful immortals. If this mysterious power really exists, then it is not impossible for the powerful immortals to be imprisoned.
That’s why I have to venture into this ghost world, even if I die, I want to know the truth. Alas, it’s a pity that for so many years, not only have I not found a single clue, but I’ve even been trapped in this.” Weird person.
His lips twitched a few times, and his face squirmed, which was very scary.
Hearing this, Gu Qing couldn't help but feel a sense of respect for the weirdo.
No matter whether he can find the answer in the end, his persistence is admirable.
But he soon thought of a very real problem - with this weirdo's terrifying strength, he couldn't get out of this prison space, and his chances of getting out were also very slim!
He is not a person who easily accepts his fate. Even if his eyes are dark, he will always try to break through as long as he has breath.
Thinking of this, he regained some confidence.
"Actually, not finding the truth may not be a bad thing. At least, it means that those powerful immortals are not imprisoned. Maybe they will appear at some time and save the building from falling down!" Gu Qing looked at his shabby figure and thought in his heart.
Somewhat unable to bear it, he comforted her with words.
The strange man raised his head, glanced at him in surprise, and said, "Who did you hear these words from?"
Gu Qing was startled, frowned and said: "These are my own words, this junior. Why, is there any problem?"
"Forget it!" The weirdo waved his hand, as if he didn't want to mention the matter again.
"By the way, after talking so much, I still don't know how to call senior?" Gu Qing took another bite of the barbecue, chewed it in his mouth a few times, and asked vaguely.
"No one has mentioned my name for a long time, so that I have forgotten it. However, now I have a new name - Dugu Yixun!" The weirdo gnawed on the meat and was silent for a long time before he said leisurely.
