It was a normal thing to say to Zhang Chi, but it made people feel that there was something in it. Qin Luzhu picked up the jug and poured wine for him. Immortal Zhang was flattered and took the initiative to get the jug: "Sister Luzhu, I'd better do it. You are older, so I should
Pour the wine."
Zhang Daxian was originally respectful, but these words did not sound good to Qin Luzhu. She glared at him fiercely and said, "What's wrong with my age? Is it an eyesore for you?" Women are always sensitive to such words.
Only then did Zhang Chi realize that he had accidentally touched her reverse scale, and he laughed and said: "Sister Luzhu, I didn't mean that. You have always been generous. How come you have become so small-minded when you arrived at Netherworld Ruins?"
"If someone comes to persuade you to be generous without understanding the cause of the matter, then you must stay away from such people, because it is easy to accidentally injure you when lightning strikes."
Zhang Daxian was very familiar with this paragraph, but he was a little scared. After all, he had many experiences of being struck by lightning in the past. He subconsciously looked up and saw that fortunately he was in Xiangxue Lu. When he thought of being struck by lightning, he naturally thought of Bai Xiaomi. This girl
If he doesn't come, he will have much less chance of being struck by lightning. If he wants to be struck by lightning after being harmed by her to this extent, wouldn't he be a bit of a bitch?
Qin Luzhu couldn't help laughing when she saw his fearful look, and raised her glass and said, "Have a drink. The wine here is different from outside. You have to drink it leisurely."
Zhang Chi carefully took a sip. It was sweet with a hint of fruity aroma and not much alcoholic taste. He raised his neck and finished the drink. He picked up a broad bean with his chopsticks and it was crunchy when he bit it. He picked up another one and looked closer to see if it was a broad bean.
broad bean.
"Lingxi fruit!" Qin Luzhu said.
Zhang Chi stuffed the Lingxi into it, picked up a chicken leg, and put it on Qin Luzhu's plate. Qin Luzhu said, "It's impolite to serve food to others here."
Zhang Chi said with a smile: "You really think of yourself as a foreigner, Teacher Qin, you are so powerful here, don't you feel a little happy and forget about Shu?" Qin Luzhu has too many things to hide from himself. To be precise, it should be the old man
The Qin family has too many secrets. Mr. Qin is so powerful that he actually hid a sacred ruin from everyone. Maybe all his sons who were declared dead and missing could secretly carve out new territories here.
Qin Luzhu said: "You think I want to come? Eight years in a foreign land, with swords licking blood, and constant battles..." Her expression was gloomy, and outsiders had no way of knowing the loneliness and loneliness she had experienced in these eight years.
Zhang Chi drank another glass of wine, thinking in his mind that, forgetting the month of being locked in a deep well, it would only take ten days for them to come to Netherworld Ruins. According to the concept of time mentioned by Qin Luzhu, it would take about a day outside and inside.
In one month, they were inside for ten days, and only eight hours had passed outside. Thinking of this, Zhang Daxian felt a little relieved. It seemed that his nightmare was not a reality. Even if Ye Ximei was successfully conceived, Qi Bing was unexpectedly pregnant.
It is impossible to give birth to two children for myself in such a short period of time. Thinking of this, I feel relieved. Even if I stay here for ten or twenty years, I will still be a teenager when I go back. Maybe the child will not be born yet.
Qin Luzhu silently clinked a glass of wine with him. To her, the two were reunited after a long separation, but to Zhang Chi, it was a reunion after a short separation. One separation, two tastes.
Qin Luzhu asked about Zhang Chi's experience, and Zhang Chi told the story from beginning to end. He didn't hide anything from Qin Luzhu. When he talked about Bai Yunsheng and his son escaping from the deep well, Qin Luzhu couldn't help but take a breath and said: "
Are you sure?"
Immortal Zhang did not recognize Bai Yunsheng and his son, he only listened to what Ji Chang said.
Qin Luzhu heard that Ji Chang, who was responsible for guarding the deep well besides him and Chu Jianghe, also came to Netherworld Ruins. His beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly and his mood became heavier: "Zhang Chi, take me to Ji Chang immediately.
This matter is no small matter."
Zhang Daxian had not yet filled his stomach, so he lazily said: "Don't worry, that guy is not a good person. Let him stay in prison for a while and suffer a little, which should be a lesson."
Qin Luzhu asked where Jichang was being held, and immediately called Ye Ying and asked her to bring Ji Chang back.
Zhang Chi said: "Sister Luzhu, don't you recognize Ji Chang?"
Qin Luzhu shook his head.
Zhang Chi secretly thought that it seemed that Qin Luzhu and he did not enter the Netherworld Ruins through the same route. If the Tongtian Sutra records the ways to enter the secret realm of the Nine Spiritual Ruins, then Mr. Qin is undoubtedly the limited person who has the best chance to come into contact with the Tongtian Sutra.
One of several people.
The Nine Great Spiritual Ruins have a strong attraction to mortals, but not to Immortal Zhang. No matter how awesome the Spiritual Ruins are, can they still surpass Heaven? How could he, a heavenly immortal, take the mere Spiritual Ruins in his eyes, and Zhang Chi came to the Netherworld?
I haven't been to the ruins for long, and I don't have much of a good impression of this place. The biggest wish in my heart now is to return to the original world. Qi Bing must have had a hard time waiting during the time he left.
Zhang Chi finally brought up the matter: "Sister Luzhu, do you know how to leave Lingxu?"
Qin Luzhu did not answer his question directly, but asked: "Do you remember when I left the capital for the mission, I told you how long it would take to leave?"
Zhang Chi thought for a while. At that time, Qin Luzhu told him that he was going to go out to perform a mission, and he would be away for three years. According to the time concept of Netherworld Ruins, one year outside is thirty years here. Qin Luzhu had to leave for three years, wouldn't it?
This means that she is ready to stay in Netherworld Ruins for ninety years.
Ninety years is a lifetime for a mortal. No wonder Qin Luzhu was so sad when he left.
Qin Luzhu said: "I don't know how to go back. I have no intention of going back since I came to Netherworld Ruins."
Zhang Chi slowly put down the wine glass in his hand: "You really don't know?"
Qin Luzhu nodded and said: "I won't lie to you. Unless you find the Tongtian Sutra, you can't get out of here at all. Although there are teleportation arrays outside that can enter Netherworld Ruins, as far as I know, all teleportation arrays are
There is no return.”
Zhang Chi subconsciously touched his forehead: "Doesn't that mean that I will never be able to go back in my life?"
Qin Luzhu said: "Is there something wrong with you being so anxious to go back?"
Zhang Chi said: "Don't you want to go back? What's so good about this place? There are corrupt officials everywhere, intrigues among people, and no basic integrity." Although he had only been in Netherworld Ruins for a few days, he was already familiar with the sinister human nature here.
gained a profound understanding.
Qin Luzhu said: "Twenty years ago, there was an explosion of spiritual energy in the tiankeng. Some people were affected by the radiation and turned into ghosts, so they were sent to the Lingxu through the teleportation array. Twenty years ago, they just flicked their fingers outside.
Time, but here it has been enlarged to six hundred years. The Zhou Dynasty, which has the longest history, was only eight hundred years old. A lot of things can happen in six hundred years."
Zhang Chi asked in shock: "Could it be that those Netherworlds are reproducing here and continuing their family lineage?"
Qin Luzhu shook his head and said: "Netherworld has no reproductive capacity, how can it be possible to continue the family line, but they can infect normal people. In the past six hundred years, the number of Netherworlds has continued to grow, and they have formed a force that cannot be ignored in the Lingxu."
Qin Luzhu waved his right hand, and a virtual 3D real-life map appeared in the void.
Zhang Chi secretly sighed, Qin Luzhu must have been idle in the past eight years, this skill is similar to Huang Chunli's scene, but of course the intensity is still a little lower.
Qin Luzhu introduced: "The Netherworld Ruins is one of the nine spiritual ruins, equivalent to a hundred Zhongzhou Ruins, and its area is larger than Australia."
Immortal Zhang was shocked when he heard this. Ji Chang had said before that Netherworld Ruins was bigger than the capital city, but Ji Chang didn't lie. It was indeed bigger, much bigger.
Qin Luzhu said: "There are only two seasons here, the flower season and the ice and snow season. Even in the flower season, only the Luofu Plain where Guangming City is located can see daytime. The highlands in the north are still covered in ice and snow during the long night. Because of the terrain of the plateau,
Because, as the altitude rises, the climate will become more and more severe, and there are many cities and tribes in Netherworld Ruins. Guangming City is the largest city and occupies the best geographical environment."
Zhang Chi said: "Are you the master of Guangming City?" In fact, he knew that Qin Luzhu could not be the lord of this place. He had inquired about General Feifeng, who was one of the five tiger generals of Guangming City.
one.
Qin Luzhu shook his head and said: "I am not, the lord is my adoptive father!"
Seeing Qin Luzhu's hesitant expression, Zhang Chi suddenly became suspicious, "Father? Isn't he just a godfather? What kind of godfather would a girl recognize?"
Qin Luzhu obviously did not want to continue on this topic and returned to the topic just now: "Although the Netherworld is powerful, they have lost human rational thinking after becoming the Netherworld. Even if they are large in number, they are just a bunch of rabble. It is impossible to talk about it.
There is no real fighting power, so it is not a concern. However, the situation here has fundamentally changed three hundred years ago. A leader with both wisdom and courage appeared in the Netherworld. Under his leadership, the Netherworld began to form a group.
They cooperated with each other to form a unique society. They first gathered in the far north, but then they continued to invade the south, intending to occupy the entire Netherworld Ruins."
Zhang Chi naturally made a time conversion in his mind. The three hundred years here are ten years outside, but he doesn't know what powerful person came here.
Qin Luzhu said: "In order to fight against Netherworld, the lord gathered the five major clans and launched a battle on the Lengshan Plateau, driving them back to the far north. He also followed the Qin people and built a Great Wall of Ice and Snow on the Lengshan Plateau.
To stop the invasion of Netherworld, the Cold Mountain Plateau is guarded by five major tribes in turn, with each tribe on duty for seven years. After I came to Netherworld Ruins, I represented the Qin family and guarded the Great Wall of Ice and Snow for seven years. I just returned to Guangming City a month ago."
Zhang Chi was not familiar with several other clans, but the Qin clan must be the Qin family. He had a strong curiosity about who the lord was. He had a vague feeling that the lord was 100% related to the Qin family, and that he was most likely the descendant of Mr. Qin.
First, there are five children in the Qin family. The eldest, Qin Juncheng, committed suicide in his early years because he could not withstand the pressure. The second, Qin Junshi, has fled and is still missing. The third, Qin Junzhi, claimed to have died young, but in fact it was Dr. Qin, Qin Zixu.
, Huang Chunli inadvertently exposed this secret when the scene reappeared. The fourth child, Qin Junzheng, died of illness ten years ago, and the fifth child, Qin Junqing, is the only one who is still alive. He is obsessed with the way of cultivation and does not recognize his relatives.
But since Qin Luzhu can appear here, it proves that Mr. Qin has concealed a huge secret. The reason why he originally opposed the tiankeng as a place to store spiritual energy may be for the same reason.
Qin Luzhu said: "The Cave Heaven Blessed Land does exist in our world. The nine spiritual ruins are all Dongtian Blessed Land. The secrets of the nine spiritual ruins are recorded in detail in the Tongtian Sutra. You should have read Peach Blossom Spring. The places recorded by Tao Yuanming are actually
It is true and believable, but the Peach Blossom Spring that the fisherman entered by mistake is just a small world of Lingxu, which cannot be compared with Zhongzhou Ruins, let alone this place."
"Sister Luzhu, what is your purpose of coming here?"
In Zhang Chi's eyes, no matter how good this place is, it can't be compared with the world. The world is eccentric, the seasons are distinct, and the people in this world are flesh and blood, alive and fragrant.
Qin Luzhu did not answer his question. Just at this time, Ye Ying came back with Ji Chang and had been temporarily locked up in the dungeon in the mansion. This was what Qin Luzhu meant.
Qin Luzhu asked Ye Ying to look for Chu Jianghe's movements again. After Ye Ying left, Zhang Chi said: "This subordinate of yours has an evil spirit."
Qin Luzhu smiled and said: "She is a slave of the Black Yuezhi. I bought her seven years ago, made a contract, and trained her. Although she looks evil on the outside, she is loyal on the inside."
Zhang Chi said: "Most people here have no integrity at all."
Qin Luzhu sighed and said: "I didn't get used to it when I first arrived here, but later I discovered that this place was originally a land outside the law. Although there are laws, the laws are not as powerful as power and money. Everyone has
Full of greed, conscience and justice are constantly being swallowed by darkness. They are keen on fighting for power and intrigues, but they ignore the biggest enemy in the north. You just asked me what the purpose of coming here is. My purpose is to help prevent the Netherworld army from occupying
here."
Qin Luzhu paused and said: "If the Netherworld army breaks through the defense line of the Great Wall of Ice and Snow and crosses the Lengshan Plateau, then the entire Netherworld Ruins will be undefendable and will definitely fall. If that day comes, the collapse of Netherworld Ruins will be imminent.
Right in front of you."
Zhang Chi looked at Qin Luzhu and vaguely felt that Qin Luzhu's coming to guard Netherworld Ruins must be related to the fate of mankind.
Qin Luzhu said: "In the vast universe, in the vast world, there is a balance in everything. Once the balance is broken, it will trigger a series of unpredictable consequences. Although I have not read the Tongtian Jing, I know the general outline of the Tongtian Jing."
It is recorded in the book that if more than half of the nine spiritual ruins collapse, then the entire world will collapse and cease to exist."
Zhang Chi said: "Where is Master? How could he have the heart to let you come here alone to take on such a major matter?"
Qin Luzhu said: "He's fine. In fact, people's hearts outside are just as sinister, but they behave more hypocritically. Here, it's more direct and brutal. Any power game is stained with blood, whether it's the Lingxu or the human world."
