Chapter XI
After several days of searching, I finally found bamboo slips about the current outside world.
After careful study, I figured out where he was first, his location was located in the Eastern Continent, and now the East is composed of many small countries, and there have been fierce battles between countries, all of which want to become the only hegemon in this land, but once there is a country with strong national strength and strong military strength, other countries will unite to fight against it, which has led to the current situation of the group of heroes.
That is to say, no one can really destroy a country, which leads to the fact that at a certain moment, when a country suddenly becomes strong, it will attack the country next to it, so the war outside is endless.
First of all, I read the introduction of Qin Muguo, which roughly said that Qin Muguo was able to have the current land because he saved the last monarch of the previous dynasty.
The kings of other countries are all the descendants of the monarchs of the previous dynasty, Gongsun Qi thinks it is ridiculous, the wars that occur between countries every year are just fighting for their own land, but they don't know that in the far west, there is a broader and more fertile land, and it seems that the aborigines there do not have a deep culture.
After looking at it for a few moments, he felt uninterested, at least he knew the pattern and distribution of the outside world, and that was enough, he actually just thought that Qin Muguo would find his father and bring him back, it was as simple as that, compared to the war-torn world outside, he preferred to live in this Taoyuan where there was no dispute with the world.
Since he was not interested in some, he decided to take a look at the bamboo slips recorded in ancient texts over there, and he vaguely felt that these records were not a simple farce of the builders of the Nine Heavens Tower, and maybe the things recorded on it might be another world.
The bookshelves on the ancient script side are different from the general text side, although they are placed in rows and rows, but this side is arranged into a triangle, and there is only one bookshelf at the front, and it gradually increases to the back.
Pick up the only one on the bookshelf in the first row and the only roll of bamboo slips, open the bamboo slips to make a very surprised, the words written on the top are the same as the first layer, it looks like they are inlaid with gold, the only difference is that there are only two words on the bamboo slips Henggu, look at the two words without annotations, with doubts with your hand to touch it.
A distant and vast breath came to the face, as if entering another time and space, to another world, and saw countless figures flashing in front of them, as if a fierce battle was taking place, they moved mountains and reclaimed the sea, called for wind and rain, summoned thunder and lightning, although the figures in front of them were very powerful, but they were still dying piece by piece, and the opposite of them was only a darkness, endless darkness.
The picture flashed, and it was frozen to a middle-aged man in white who was victorious in snow, and there were countless corpses scattered around the person, who seemed to be the fighting figure on the previous picture, and the people who were still alive next to him looked at the middle-aged man with tears in their eyes, as if they saw joy and hope in the eyes of those people.
I saw that the man's long sword slashed at the boundless darkness, and immediately split the darkness that covered the sky in half, and the middle-aged man rushed into the void behind the darkness with the sword.
Then a lot of pictures flashed, all of which were figures fighting against the invading darkness, and at the end of each confrontation screen, a person would appear to defeat the darkness in one fell swoop, and then rush into the void behind the darkness without hesitation.
Came back to my senses, touched the word Henggu again, but unfortunately this time there was no picture I saw before, and I touched it a few times, but there was still no response, it seems that the answer to the word on the same layer is the same, and it will not appear again if I remember it.
"But I remember? Learned? As he asked himself, he thought hard. Not at all! In the end, he gave this answer.
I didn't think that what I saw just now was an illusion, but I felt that Zhu Jian seemed to be trying to give him some kind of hint, as for what prompt, he thought about it for a long time and didn't have an answer.
"Is it that the world will one day be swallowed up by darkness? I forgot that it was a bamboo slip of ancient characters, does that mean that another world will one day be swallowed up by darkness? But didn't everyone show up in the end, shattering the darkness and saving the world? Besides, I'm not in that world. "I'm still thinking about it, forget it, let's just treat it as a god legend.
A few months later, after roughly reading the ancient history, let's call it history, he got up and went to the door of the seventh floor, looking at the door, he stretched out his hand but never pushed it open, not because he was afraid of being beaten by the wooden man inside.
He felt that if he passed the seventh floor, it would be time to say goodbye here, he decided to accompany his village chief grandfather again, to see the village where he had lived for more than ten years, and to see the people who had loved him when he was young, although he had been very withdrawn since he was a child, had no friends, and did not like to talk, but he always remembered the people who were good to him, he just wanted to go and see, and he suddenly felt reluctant.
Walking through the streets of the village, the former child has grown into a handsome teenager, he did not use his internal force to speed up his pace, but slower than when he usually walked, he carefully looked at everyone in the village chief, watched their every move, he wanted to remember these, this is a good memory of his childhood, although he can still come back, but he doesn't know how long it will take to come back next time, so he wants to remember.
Time has no end but the street has, unconsciously he has come to the door of his house, pushed open the door, looked at his still healthy village chief grandfather, and had to sigh the effect of "Longevity Formula", so many years, the appearance of the village chief grandfather and his memory have not changed much.
"I'm back, it looks like I've passed the sixth floor, and I'm just here to cook lunch with my grandfather." The village chief greeted him as he pushed the door open.
Looking at his busy grandfather, remembering that he had studied in the tower all these years, leaving his grandfather alone and returning home, his heart was sad, and his eyes were red unconsciously.
"Why are you still crying, it's a big child, don't cry, today is the day you pass the sixth layer, you should celebrate, you should be happy, come on, today grandpa will take out the old wine that I have treasured for decades to celebrate, the old man next door Wang is worried about my wine for a year or two, and he hasn't shown him a look." As he spoke, he pulled up and did it.
The grandfather told him about his youth, about the first time he entered the tower, to falling in love with his grandmother whom he had never met, and then to meeting his mother until he was born. He had never heard these things from the village chief's grandfather before.
And Gongsun Qi told his grandfather about the ancient records in the tower, and told him about his plans after going out of Taoyuan Village, so the grandparents and grandsons ate a lunch until the evening, of course, he didn't drink less, but he just didn't get drunk, which made it difficult for him to understand, maybe it was the effect of internal force.
This lunch with my grandfather is still fresh in my memory, and every time I think of it, I will unconsciously curl the corners of my mouth.
