"Well, why don't you call it 'extraordinary'?"

Ning Yuan asked with some curiosity.

Mao Qing glanced at Ning Yuan when he heard this, and said like an idiot:

"Cultivation itself is a 'transcendental' process, this is common sense, don't you know?"

Ning Yuan was deeply stung by the idiot-like eyes at that glance, and he couldn't control himself and defended himself with shame and annoyance:

"The outside world is now the era of the end of the law, okay?"

Mao Qing sighed inexplicably when she heard this:

"What a child."

This sound reached Ning Yuan's ears, and Ning Yuan trembled, his eyes widened in vain, and his mind was in chaos.

Mao Qing was slightly stunned when he saw this, and an inexplicable light flashed in his eyes, but after waiting for a while, seeing a gray mist flash on Ning Yuan's body, the light in his eyes slowly disappeared, and a look of disappointment flashed slightly on his face.

He sighed faintly, and then said:

"You'd better find a professional to collect these dragon marrow grasses, otherwise they will probably be ruined. In addition, I brought you here this time, but it wasn't because of the dragon marrow grass because of this accident. ”

Ning Yuan, who returned to his state just now after Mao Qing's voice sounded, was stunned when he heard this:

"Why didn't you show me the dragon marrow grass?"

Mao Qing glanced at Ning Yuan with cat's eyes and said:

"Did you notice something unusual about this cave?"

"Unusual?"

Ning Yuan was stunned when he heard this, and looked around suspiciously.

The whole cave is gourd-shaped, consisting of two irregularly circular circles. The bottom area of the cave is slightly larger, the area of the front part is slightly smaller near the entrance, the middle is divided by a stone wall formed by a string of stalactites, and the gourd mouth is formed at the entrance of more than ten meters.

The cave is littered with glowing moss and irregular large crushed stone mines, and except for the flat area in the middle, both sides of the cave are littered with ore and waste from the life of lizards. Some broken bones and haystacks.

Ning Yuan didn't see any difference here, so he looked at Mao Qing with some puzzlement, hoping that she could give an explanation.

Mao Qing looked at Ning Yuan with a little headache for a while, shook his head, pointed to the clean and abnormal ground near the mercury pool and the faint scratches on the cave wall, and then stretched out his hand to point to the place where the group of rock lizards that Ning Yuan saw just now lived.

Ning Yuan looked at the open space next to the mercury pool again with some confusion, and then looked at the area on both sides of the cave where the front end of the cave was obviously where the lizards lived.

It took a moment for it to suddenly realize that the lizard group apparently lived mostly only in the small circular area in front of the cave, and was still trying to get as close to the edge of the cave wall as possible. This large circular area inside is at most only the leader of the lizard, or the leader of the lizard colony also lives at the forefront.

This is because there are obviously not many traces of lizard activity in the area around the mercury pool.

Ning Yuan frowned and walked to the stone wall next to the mercury pool that Mao Qing had just pointed out, and looked at the faint notches on the stone wall.

Turning to look at Mao Qing, he said in surprise:

"There used to be people living here?"

"The notches on the stone wall that are no longer visible are a kind of formation solution, which should be the formation principle of the mercury pool."

Mao Qing nodded and said:

"However, it can be seen from the traces that the age of the nick is very long, estimated to be at least more than 1,000 years."

In other words, it is estimated that there should have been a period of time for more than 1,000 years, and this mercury pond was also arranged. Judging from the living habits of the lizard group, the ancestors of this group of lizards should have been domesticated by the original owner of the cave. ”

"What are you trying to illustrate?"

Ning Yuan frowned and asked, his expression serious.

Mao Qing looked around the cave and said:

"As I said earlier, the Dragon Prison Jedi was considered completely closed three thousand years ago because of the Earth Dragon's overturn, and there were many people who wanted to re-enter but couldn't get in."

"And not only the natives of the city-state, but also the people of the outer circle, who had been connected with the people outside the inner circle of the Fulong Mountains, also wanted to reconnect with the people outside the inner circle, but they could not enter by all means. So no one knows about the Dragon's Prisoner Jedi for three thousand years. ”

Mao Qing glanced up at Ning Yuan, who had a puzzled look, and continued:

"The city built by the extraterritorials should not be able to build Dunjiamen for the sake of the rules, and not only that, but for the extraterritorial, the profession of array mage cannot be inaugurated and inherited. Even if the original outlaws have the Array Mage class, after the rules change, the Array Mage class will disappear completely. ”

There was a look of surprise in Ning Yuan's eyes.

Mao Qing stroked the notches on the stone wall and said slowly:

"According to the historical records I have verified, as early as more than 15,000 years ago, there was no longer the existence of the formation mage profession among the extraterritorial people. And the original owner here is undoubtedly an unfamiliar array mage. ”

"Three thousand years ago, the natives of the city-state were no longer able to enter the Dragon Prison Jedi, and only extraterritorials existed here."

Ning Yuan muttered to himself with a solemn expression:

"And the extraterritorials have lost the inheritance of the formation mage as early as fifteen thousand years ago. But this mercury pool, you can be sure that it was formed by the formation set up by the original owner of this cave with a treasure as the core. ”

Seeing Mao Qing nodding in affirmation, he continued to speculate:

"Then there are only two conclusions that can be drawn."

"One is the Dragon Prisoner Jedi, there were city-state natives before you who came here after the Dragon Prisoner Jedi was closed. It's just that it's secret enough and there is not the slightest rumor from the outside world. ”

Mao Qing continued Ning Yuan's words.

Ning Yuan nodded solemnly, if anyone knew how to enter here when it was well known to the outside world that the Dragon Prisoner Jedi could not enter. Then Ning Yuan can imagine that no matter whether this person is ambitious or not, he will not give up the opportunity to sit on the treasure land.

"The second possibility is that after 15,000 years of development, the extraterritorials have redeveloped the formation mage profession."

Mao Qing nodded. With a rare solemn expression, he said:

"Needless to say, the first one, Mengyuan Village no longer has a unique hidden advantage. It is possible to have another city-state city that has been developed for thousands of years. Although this probability is very low. ”

Ning Yuan nodded a little depressedly and continued:

The second type shows that the extraterritorials who were originally stripped of the path of civilization by the rules are likely to have formed another complete civilization. The tribes, villages, and towns of the extraterritorial people are no longer individual individuals, but may be connected together by Dunjiamen. An alternative alliance of city-states. ”

"Not bad."

Mao Qing nodded and said:

"Either way, it's not good news for us. If the second option is the case, it is likely that the powerful tribe that was discovered last time was only a part of the power of some powerful extraterritorial. ”

Ning Yuan looked up at the top of the cave a little speechlessly, and said with difficulty:

"And the development of Mengyuan Village will inevitably become a mortal enemy with it. Whether it is the expansion of the city, the solution of the population problem, or the natural hostility of the extraterritorials to the people of the city-state. ”

After returning to the village, Ning Yuan urgently summoned all the powerful officials in the village.
