Chapter 844: Thirty-three Days of the Age of Mythology
The upper echelons of the Egret Academy retreated, and Wang Xu and the three finally had time to explore the entrance.
The island in the lake is not large, only a kilometer in range, the ground is full of silt and stagnant water, and the most conspicuous is the place where the Lotus Flower took root before.
The Lotus was on an island in the lake at that time, rooted in the middle of the island, and its evacuation also left a large hole in its place.
Looking up, this ancient well-like hole extends downwards and seems to be connected to another world, which is really mysterious.
Wang Xu and the three of them glanced at each other, if there is a difference, it should be here, but do you want to go down?
"This passage may be the entrance to another realm, and if I encounter danger inside, the Ancestor of Wusong can't save me. What's more, can you get in and out, if you are trapped in it, then you will have fun. ”
Wang Xu has a shuttle door with him, and it stands to reason that he shouldn't be afraid of being trapped, but he has left so many backhands in the Tianwu world, if he is trapped in a small world, he can only use the shuttle door to leave, wouldn't he be able to take care of anything.
After hesitating again and again, the thirst for the imperial soldiers still prevailed, if the imperial soldiers were found in the emperor's tomb, he would be a crab in the Tianwu world, and he could go sideways, and it was worth taking a little risk.
After all, even if he is trapped or in distress, he can leave calmly, and he can't call a bird a dead food.
"Go down..."Wang Xu made up his mind, nodded to Mu Yuan Sage, and jumped down with the sick man.
Sou!!
Under the gravitational force, Wang Xu and the three of them fell freely, but the strange thing is that no matter how they fell, they couldn't hear the wind in their ears, as if they were in space.
I don't know how long it took, but in the inky passage, there was a faint light.
Wang Xu and the three of them passed through a layer of film, and then looked, there was already another world below.
Desolate, dilapidated, ancient, is the breath of this world.
Wang Xu and the three of them stood in the air, looking at each other, where did they come, did they really find the dilapidated fairy world?
"Which way are you going?" After looking at it for a while, Mu Yuan Sage couldn't help but ask.
Wang Xu turned his head to look at the sick man and said, "You are here to show the way." ”
The sick man is suspected of having a protagonist template, and he is a natural atmospheric carrier, and he can be auspicious in distress, so it is most suitable for him to show the way.
Hearing Wang Xu's words, the sick man hesitated for a moment and pointed to the north.
"Let's go!" Wang Xu drove away and went straight to the north.
After walking for thousands of miles, a city appeared on a barren land, and the noise came from afar.
"Manned!" Wang Xu had a look of surprise in his eyes, how could such a ruined world be inhabited.
After running for thousands of miles, he didn't see any water source or any living creatures at all, how could there be living creatures in such a world.
"Be careful, there should be no living creatures in such a world." Wang Xu warned cautiously, and flew towards the city with the Mu Yuan Sage.
Xuan Ming City!!
This is the name of this city, Wang Xu landed far away, and looked up, there were soldiers guarding the gate, and there should be vendors setting up stalls at the gate of the city, and unlike humans, although these people have human appearance, they have vertical horns on their foreheads.
"Interracial?"
Mu Yuan Sage's eyes narrowed slightly, and he whispered: "According to the unearthed documents, before the era of our Hundred Emperors, whether it was mythology, antiquity, medievality, or ancient times, there was not only one race of human beings. Later, for some unknown reason, these races slowly disappeared, and only us were left in the Tianwu world. ”
Wang Xu nodded slightly, and asked in a low voice: "Have you ever heard of a foreign race that can thrive without eating and drinking?" ”
Mu Yuan Sage shook his head slightly, alien races are also lives, how can they not eat or drink.
"If not, what do you say they eat alive?" Wang Xu bit the word alive very hard, in this broken world, there are no living creatures at all, except for the people of this city, they don't even see a mosquito.
In this way, do the people of this city drink the northwest wind to survive, or do this alien race have the characteristic of surviving without eating or drinking?
"Otherwise, let's go in and have a look, judging by the soldiers guarding the door, they shouldn't be able to stop us." The Mu Yuan Sage was eager to try, because judging from the aura, these soldiers who were only second-order cultivators were nothing.
"That's all there is to it." Wang Xu nodded and agreed, maybe the secret of this world is hidden in this city, follow the clues to find it, maybe you can find the hidden emperor's tomb.
"Be careful, follow us and don't fall behind."
Wang Xu gave an order to the sick man, and then walked over with the Mu Yuan Sage.
One step, two steps, three steps...
Getting closer and closer to the city gate, Wang Xu's hearts were also raised, they didn't know if the aliens in this city were hostile to humans.
If anything, there is a big war, which is not conducive to their next plans.
It's closer, it's getting closer.
As Wang Xu and the three approached, a guard who looked like a school captain looked up at the three of them.
"Don't be impulsive, don't preemptively do it." Wang Xu whispered to Mu Yuan Sage, and walked towards the city gate.
The two sides passed by, and looked at the captain who was looking at them, with disgust in his eyes, and only heard him whisper, "Cheap human. ”
Except for a sentence, the lieutenant had no intention of making a move.
Wang Xu breathed a sigh of relief, and then changed to stunned, and asked, "They know human beings?" ”
"It should be, human beings originated from the age of mythology, and they are eternal, and these alien races may have records of human beings." Mu Yuan Sage explained dryly, this explanation was far-fetched.
Because this group of aliens, I don't know how many epochs they have survived in this broken world, there is no reason to recognize humans at a glance.
You know, when they see these people, they only treat them as aliens, but what kind of alien race these horned people are, it's not something they can understand.
"These could be the Xuan Nether!"
The sick man, who had been following the two of them, suddenly spoke: "I couldn't cultivate before, so I dabbled in a hundred books, read a lot of miscellaneous books, and was especially interested in the unearthed cultural relics of various eras. Fortunately, I got a jade slip unearthed in the tomb, from the ancient era, which records the era of mythology, there was a fairy world, and the fairy world is divided into thirty-three heavens, one of which is the Xuanming Heaven.
In the Heavens of the Underworld lives the Immortals, a race that is similar in appearance to humans, with the only difference being that they have horns on their heads. In fact, the age of mythology is not as chaotic as we think, but very orderly.
The Emperor of Heaven is high above, and he has the five emperors under his jurisdiction, the lord of the thirty-three days, and jointly governs the heavens and the earth.
At that time, all the races were herdsmen of the Heavenly Emperor, the powerful races occupied the heavenly realm, the weak races remained on the earth, and each race had the protection of the Great Emperor, or the existence above the Great Emperor. In the Age of Mythology, we humans are also a big force, although we do not occupy a heavy heaven, but we are also one of the strongest races on the surface, and there are many great powers serving in the heavenly court, not a weak race. ”
It's not a weak race, and the representative will not be killed at will, just like the genocide in Africa, many local people are better than dead, but foreigners can live with taste, because the motherland is strong, it is a life-saving card, even those warlords, will not attack foreigners at will.
"Look!" Walking through the city gate and coming to the Xuanyuan City, the Mu Yuan Sage was immediately shocked.
He was shocked, not because the city was too dilapidated, but because it was too prosperous.
In the eye, the people of the Xuanming tribe on the street are constantly coming and going, and what is terrifying is that there are many restaurants on the street that are in normal business, and there are small vendors selling fruits and medicinal herbs on the roadside, which is diametrically opposed to the dilapidated and desolate outside.
"Is this food?"
With questions on his face, Wang Xu couldn't help but whisper: "They never got it?" ”
Yes, there is no birth within a radius of tens of thousands of miles, where do these suspected fruits and medicinal materials come from.
The sick man couldn't help but wonder, took the initiative to step forward, and said, "Where did you get this fruit?" ”
"How can they understand the Terran dialect?" Wang Xu asked in surprise, because he suddenly found that whether it was the soldiers guarding the city or these Xuanming people in the city, they all spoke Chinese.
"This is not the Terran dialect, but the Chinese language, which in the Age of Mythology, we speak now, is the official language of the Heavenly Court, and any race must learn it. As for the language and writing of the human race itself, it was abandoned in the mythological era, and the words and languages invented by the Emperor of Heaven were used by all races. ”
As soon as the sick man said this, Wang Xu was stunned.
At the beginning, when he came to the Tianwu world, he thought that these people spoke Chinese and used Hanzi because they had their own guidance, after all, he had been to many different worlds, and those worlds with yellow faces generally used Chinese and Chinese characters.
Looking at it now, I'm afraid it's not what he thinks, Chinese and Chinese characters are actually the official languages of the Heavenly Court, and they were invented by the Heavenly Emperor.
Who is this Emperor of Heaven, coincidentally, or the Emperor of Heaven himself, who is a traverser in front of countless opportunities.
"In the mythical era, did the Emperor of Heaven take good care of the human race?" Wang Xu couldn't help but ask the sick man.
For this problem, the sick man didn't know, the mythological era had long been buried in the past, and he could know the Xuanxia tribe, or because of the unearthed ancient documents, so he shook his head and said: "I don't know, I haven't read this record." ”
"The Emperor of Heaven is eccentric and loves the human race, otherwise you are still like animals, and you will be kept in a human circle by us!"
The fruit seller looked at Wang Xu and the three of them, and spat at the mouth: "Phew, lowly human beings, they can only talk flatteringly and bewitch the emperor's heart!" Your Majesty the Holy Emperor, sooner or later, one day I will wake up and beat you back to your original form, and I will also keep a few humans in captivity at that time. ”
Wang Xu and the three of them glanced at each other, the hawker's words were too informative.
The mythological era has long passed, the heavenly court has collapsed, and the emperor of heaven has died, but in the words of these people, how can they still seem to be living in a mythological fate, is it...
