Chapter Seventy-Two: Return to Civilization
The thousand-year-old witch Zhi Qi looked at everyone and said, "Okay, my old witch has experienced so much, and the rest is the experience of being locked in a cell, and there is nothing to say." Tell me what has happened in the past 500 years, and what is the state of the world now? ”
Li and Jessica looked at each other, no one was a big historian, and it was not clear if they really wanted to systematically talk to the old demon Wu Zhiqi, it seemed that they still had to find a professional.
Thinking of this, Li Yi slapped his thigh, "It's bad, forget about the three of them." ”
A group of people hurried to the steps and looked down, where there was still their shadow.
Wu Zhiqi's eyes were still sharp, and he pointed to the entrance, "Are you talking about them?" ”
Li looked up and looked, hey, these three are really obedient, they are all running out.
"It's the three of them, senior, you wait a moment, I'll chase them."
"Don't bother you, I'll go." As soon as the words fell, Wu Zhiqi's body disappeared in place, and Li Dingyan saw that Wu Zhiqi had already arrived behind the professor.
I saw him wave his big hand, and I didn't know what spell he used, so he wrapped the three of them in a mist and brought them back.
The three professors who came out of the mist were shaking with their eyes closed, probably waiting for death.
Li had no choice but to cast a meditation spell and wake up the three of them. "Professor, Professor, wake up, it's okay."
The three professors opened their eyes in a daze, and only then did they relax when they saw Li, and listened to Li Da briefly talk about the origin of Wu Zhiqi, of course, most of his life experience was hidden, and the professor, as an archaeologist, was in awe of him, after all, not everyone can come across the living and talking monuments.
Li relayed Wu Zhiqi's request to the professor, and the professor immediately began to tell the history to the old demon in earnest, of course, it was translated by Li Lai, and Xiao Hei did not understand some professional terms very well.
With the professor's narration, the magnificent picture of human history slowly unfolded in front of the old monster.
When the professor talked about the war between the various races of the human race, Wu Zhiqi said disdainfully: "You human beings will always always fight the most with your own race. ”
When the professor talked about the fact that the sea ship invented by mankind could carry thousands of people across the ocean, he was amazed and sighed that he would have saved him so much trouble if he had such a good thing at that time.
However, Li's words choked him back: "If there was such a big ship at that time, would Gengchen's seniors still let you out." The old monster was immediately silent, he really didn't know anything about it.
It seems that the story that this old guy told before was somewhat untrue. Li touched his chin and pondered Wu Zhiqi, with this old guy's temperament, that Geng Yin talked with him very happily, and most of the time he became a friend of Mo Yun Yun was not very reliable, or he would not have been released until he was leaving, and most of them were still convinced.
After talking for most of the day, it was getting late, and the professor's stomachs were growling with hunger, Wu Zhiqi was also considerate, and with a wave of his hand, a fountain sent several big fish more than one person tall to the platform.
Li and the others finished cooking the fish, sprinkled all kinds of spices, and took out the dry food they had brought for Wu Zhiqi to taste. As a result, this old-timer, who claimed that he had no problem without eating or drinking for 500 years, ate half a month's ration for the seven of them.
Looking at the stunned eyes of everyone, he was also a little embarrassed, scratched his head and said: "I've been locked up here for 500 years, and I can only eat some raw fish and fruits every day, and I really don't want to eat anymore." Besides, the food invented by you humans is much better than back then, and I was greedy for a while, so I ate a few more bites, but don't worry, what you want to eat here are just open your mouth and wrap it around me. ”
Everyone is very satisfied with eating the melon, fruit and fish meat rich in wood-based aura, which is much better than those so-called pure natural ingredients, not to mention immortality, but also to prolong life, and you can't eat it if you want to.
Seeing that everyone had eaten almost, Wu Zhiqi's quick temper urged the old professor to continue, and everyone was full of food and drink, so they gathered around and listened to the story.
The old professor continued to talk backwards, and when it was said that human beings had invented the atomic bomb to destroy a city in an instant, Li saw Wu Zhiqi shrink his neck obviously, and he smashed it and sighed: "I guess I don't dare to take this thing casually, you humans are smart." Li didn't explain it to him, and humans themselves didn't dare to use it casually.
Later, when it came to rockets, satellites, space shuttles and other things, the old witch was even more surprised, staring at the big round eyes and asking, "So powerful?" Who can take the old witch to sit with me, this ability is greater than mine. ”
Li hurriedly told him that this is not something that can be said to be on it, even if he secretly goes on it himself, don't look at you are born and raised, and most of you will not survive if you are thrown into space, so he retreated, looking at him like that, he probably really wondered if he would secretly go up and take a look by himself if no one took him.
It lasted until midnight, and finally it was over. Listening to those radar, laser, satellite, computer and other functions, Wu Zhiqi thought about his ability again, and felt that it was not a big deal.
Li looked at his sluggish appearance, a little unbearable, but still opened his mouth to comfort him: "It's okay, senior, although those things are powerful, they are still controlled by people after all, and they are not particularly convenient, not as convenient and practical as your own ability." ”
Wu Zhiqi waved his hand, "Don't comfort me, although it's not as good as now, but if it continues like this, it won't take long to catch up with me." ”
"Hehe, the ruler is long, and the inch is short. It's not that you can't use these things, but your own skills and these tools are even more powerful. ”
Listening to Lee's flattering words, Locke and Finley glanced at each other, yes, the boss began to fool this again.
Wu Zhiqi squinted his eyes and skimmed Li, and lay on the ground with his hands on the back of his head, "Come on, boy, I will follow you without you fooling me, after all, you and I have a favor, and I can also be familiar with this world." I'm just less knowledgeable, and I'm not stupid, so I don't come with me for this set. ”
This time, Chang Li was embarrassed, but he remembered something and asked, "Senior, if we destroy this temple, will it have an impact on this small piece of heaven and earth?" ”
"This world? Hehe, even I can't affect it. Wu Zhiqi said indifferently, "This is the map of the Mountains and Rivers Society, who dares to say that it can affect this baby?"
As if a lightning bolt struck his head, Li was stunned, Shanhe Shejitu, is there really such a magic weapon? Have you ever been in it? This state continued until the next morning, and he was still a little confused about reality.
The group was taken out of this world by Wu Zhiqi, standing in the passage when they came, only to see him silently reciting a spell in his mouth, turning around and grabbing it casually, a flash of brilliance flashed, and I saw him holding a tattered animal skin in his hand. Li They came to the end of the passage and looked out, there was no trace of the fairyland-like scenery, only a long-abandoned crater appeared in front of them.
Fortunately, they have seen too many incredible professors in the past few days, and they just marveled at it and walked out first, but Li They were even more amazed by this scene.
Probably in the professor's opinion, it is not surprising that Li and them will go out and ride a broom and fly into the sky for a while.
Wu Zhiqi saw Li Siren staring at the animal skin in his hand, smiled, stuffed it into his mouth, and walked in with his hands behind his back, and the four of them followed helplessly.
Back in the main hall, everyone felt like they were in a different world. Wu Zhiqi looked up at his own statue and didn't say anything.
The professor and the three of them discussed it for a while and said to Li, "Mr. Li, do you see the ruins here, can we announce them to the public?" This is still very helpful for the study of the entire American civilization, as for the matter of fairyland, we will not talk about it, probably no one will believe it. ”
Lee smiled and said, "No problem, Professor Myers, thank you very much for your help these days, this is the reward you deserve." I'm afraid you've guessed it, we're only here for the gold, and these ruins and artifacts are yours. ”
Hal and Dom clapped their hands in celebration, this discovery was enough to make them go down in history, and this is what they were after, as for gold, seeing so many amazing people and things, the two of them felt that it was more important to keep useful lives.
The professor smiled and said, "You have helped us a lot." He looked at Wu Zhiqi standing in front of the statue again and said, "Moreover, you also let me understand the real history in my lifetime, and I will always remember this kindness." ”
The old professor and the three of them were very touched by their professionalism, and he asked the professor if he needed to leave a few gold utensils for them as proof, but the old professor shook his hand and said: "We have also considered, if there is no gold, it can be used as an ordinary relic to investigate and protect, if there is really gold, the Honduran government will definitely surround this as soon as possible, and at that time, those people can still take care of the protection of cultural relics, and it is good not to dig three feet into the ground." We deleted all the gold-related photos from the camera. ”
Li thought about it for a while, and felt that what the professor said made sense, so he didn't force it anymore, but he made a promise to the professor that if they needed Li and their help, just ask.
The old professor didn't care, but Hal and Dom nodded happily, this promise was much more valuable than a few pieces of gold that might not be available.
When everything was right, they had no reason to stay any longer, so as not to arouse suspicion, they walked to the river on foot and drove back along the river.
Fortunately, Wu Zhiqi also wanted to observe the world more, so he didn't object, just changed into Li's spare clothes and asked Xiao Hei to learn English.
Back at the small plane, they met the smug pilot Terry, and he was very happy to see that everyone had returned safely, and he also believed the story of the explorers rescued in the jungle by Li and them.
The small plane flew back to the capital Tegucigalpa on the same day, and the powerful old monster Wu Zhiqi was extremely interested in the plane that could fly, but after passing through the bumps in the canyon, the old monster with a pale face said that he could still not sit in the future.
Of course, Lee didn't tell him that he had a few hours to fly on soon, and who made the old guy always boast of being well-informed.
