Chapter 3 Zhang Tianxing's Codex

This is the general content of the letter, which is a suicide letter, at the end of which it reads:

Boy, the old man believes that you will be able to escape from the Ascension, when you read this letter, all the fate has fallen on your shoulders, do not try to escape, because God has predestined, you are the one who should be doomed. Go, like your grandfather back then, bravely bear this burden, as a person who should not have existed in the world for a long time, the old man has lived long enough, so long enough that he is tired of everything, so the old man chooses to be exiled with the ancient town.

On the occasion of parting, the only thing the old man can do is to return to you the codex that your grandfather has stored in me, which records many of your grandfather's experiences and many shocking secrets, I hope it will help you. In addition, I am dying, the sword apocalypse is also handed over to you, this sword is I am opening the patriarch to find in the burial before the ascension, the origin is mysterious, your future road will be more and more dangerous, this sword can add help to you, I hope to cherish yourself!

After reading the letter, but I couldn't calm down for a long time, when I was in the ancient town, I heard the person who should be robbed from Yan Wudao, when the incident happened in a hurry, I didn't have time to ask in detail, and now this suicide letter mentioned again'The person who should be robbed', and also mentioned my grandfather, and even the node forbidden land is related to me, which is really unacceptable to me, almost as soon as I read the letter, I can't wait to open the codex mentioned in the letter.

It was a pile of extremely old pages, mottled and yellowed, but very well preserved, showing no signs of damage.

The cover of the codex is a yellowed piece of paper, without the words of the logo, and it is not the kind of particularly elaborate cover, which is very similar to the notebook I usually use to write down the bits and pieces of life at will.

I paused slightly, then immediately opened the Codex and began to read its contents.

To be honest, the content of the codex is completely different from what I imagined, perhaps because I first saw Yan Wudao's letter and knew that there was a big secret about the node forbidden land recorded in the codex, so I preconceived that as soon as I opened the codex, I could see the records related to this secret.

It's a pity that I have overlooked a very important point, that is, the thickness of the codex, the whole stack of codex is almost as thick as a finger, at least there are thousands, and the paper is also very large, about the same as the eight-open paper, such a thick pile of paper, even if the four famous books are all printed, it is more than enough.

After flipping through it for a while, I knew that I didn't have a few months to read the contents of the codex at all, and I had to read it all day. How can anyone take notes with such a large piece of paper, if you want to take it out, it is not convenient!

Thinking about it, I sighed and looked at it patiently. Looking at it, I felt wrong, and at the same time I understood why the grandfather would use this kind of paper as a recording tool.

This codex is not a simple note, but an extremely complex and cumbersome hodgepodge, which includes not only the life experience of the master, but also the records of witchcraft and Taoism, and even the experience of the master in learning these things.

These are just the tip of the iceberg of this codex, the more you turn back, the more magical and complex the things recorded in it, I have seen a lot of local scenery records, strange mountains and strange waters, celebrity anecdotes, these are all things that the master has witnessed during his personal travels, and he even drew some strange feng shui geography, mountains and rivers into a map, and combined them in this codex.

I was almost stunned, and I said in my heart, what did my grandfather do back then? Damn, if the contents of this codex are circulated, not all of them, as long as they are a single category, they will definitely cause a huge sensation!

Since the content of the Codex is too much and cumbersome, and what I am most concerned about now is the huge secret related to the node forbidden land, so I just flip through the pages and only filter the content related to the node forbidden land.

Even so, it was not easy to sort out a specific content from the thousands of eight-carat handwritten pages, and it was very difficult for me to manually flip through them without a table of contents index.

I just flipped through a few hundred sheets and I already felt dizzy and vomited. At this time, the nurse Xiaoling brought me medicine, and just saw that I was covering my forehead, and my face was also very ugly, the little girl didn't know, and thought that there was something wrong with my wound, so she hurriedly came over to ask.

I waved at him to say I was fine, and then slowed down for a few seconds until the nauseous vomiting had subsided, then I smiled at her and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine!" ”

Xiaoling was still not at ease, after repeated confirmation, the tense nerves were put down, at this time she also saw my codex spread out on the bed, curiously came over to take a look, and suddenly showed a sudden look: "Ah, no wonder you are dizzy, although you can go to the ground, but the wound has not yet recovered, especially the impact on the back of your head, you look at these messy things at this time, it is strange to be infertile." ”

Listening to her say this, I also understood, the words on the codex are all traditional characters, and very small, plus the paper is yellowed, even if a normal person has been reading for a long time, he will feel uncomfortable, I have been reading for more than an hour, and my body is naturally unbearable.

But the secret was in front of me, and I couldn't wait any longer.

Xiaoling is a ghost, and she knew that the Codex was very important to me when she saw my face, she smiled and stepped forward and asked, "Reporter, do you need help?" It's free! ”

Looking at Xiaoling's grinning appearance, I thought in my heart, and felt that it was not bad to ask her to help find it, because the content in the codex was very cumbersome, even if she read it, she might not be able to understand anything, and she didn't have to worry about the secret being leaked; Second, I was really itching, and I couldn't wait, so I nodded: "That, there is indeed something that needs your help, do you have time?" ”

For the rest of the day, Xiao Ling sat on the edge of the hospital bed and helped me rummage through the content related to the node forbidden.

At first, the little girl saw that there were many patterns of spells and spells recorded in the Codex, and she was even more convinced of my identity, and she was so excited that she almost jumped up, and her little face was flushed, and she kept asking in my ear, and I was almost annoyed with her, and I suddenly began to regret asking her for help.

After flipping through for a while, when she saw that the whole pile of paper was basically full of these things, the excitement slowly weakened, and as more and more papers were browsed, the little girl's face began to slowly turn white, obviously, she couldn't stand it anymore.

Just when I was about to let her rest for a while, the little girl's face suddenly showed a look of surprise: "Ah, I found it, I found it, look at it......"

As she spoke, she pointed to the page she had turned to and told me to look at it. I was also excited, and I said that I had finally found it, and the secret of the node forbidden land was right in front of me.

I sat up, picked up the spread out codex, and wrote down the page number in my mind before I began to look through it.

Starting from this page, and then more than a dozen pages in a row, all of them are related to the node forbidden land, and it took me more than an hour to read this part of the content, but after reading it, the puzzle in my heart was not solved, and I immediately felt extremely disappointed.

It turned out that what was recorded in these dozen pages of codex was only the experience of the grandfather when he first heard about the 'Node Forbidden Land', and he did not mention the secret behind the Node Forbidden Land.

It happened the year after the Second Plague of Resentment, the year after the Nine Lotus Cult Rebellion ended.

The rebellion of the Nine Lotus Divine Cult, which lasted for eleven years, completely fell to the Wudao camp after the appearance of the Eight Strange People, and the Nine Lotus Divine Cult was defeated, and the sect fell apart, scattering as birds and beasts. The long-accumulated contradiction between the two veins of the witch and the Taoist who lost the common enemy also broke out at this time, and the two factions had a dispute, so they fought and killed each other, and the witch Gu in southern Xinjiang retreated to Miao Jiang, and the two sides were on the same footing, and the Central Plains Zhengdao did not allow Miao Jiang wizards and Gu masters to set foot in the Central Plains, and Miao Jiang did not allow Taoist priests to enter.

The famous Taiye in the rebellion of the Nine Lotus Divine Sect did not want to see the two veins killing each other, but he also knew that he was powerless to change the situation on his own, so he had to choose to go into hiding with his grandmother, who was only twenty-seven years old at the time.

As mentioned before, Grandma Tai was originally an extremely powerful vein in the witch Gu in Southern Xinjiang, and in the context of the time, the Central Plains did not allow Grandma Tai to stay, and Miao Jiang did not allow Tai Ye to enter, which almost made the two people who fell in love at that time desperate.

If it were someone else, it might be a tragedy, but the grandfather was not the kind of person who was obedient, in order not to implicate his master, the grandfather resolutely chose to return to Miaojiang with his grandmother.

Taiye already had a very high prestige and status in the Central Plains Righteous Path at that time, such a person not only came to Miao Jiang with a swagger, but even kidnapped Miao Wu, a saint who had a big power in the real power, which was almost a slap in the face at that time, which naturally caused great trouble.

Fortunately, the grandfather made great efforts when the first disaster of resentment broke out in Miaojiang, and the various branches of Miao Wu thanked the grandfather for his kindness back then, and the recovery of the grandfather and grandmother was just a show, in order to save the face of Miaojiang, which allowed the grandfather to establish a foothold in Miaojiang and choose to settle in Wawu Village, which is now Dingyan Village.

The formal recovery has never stopped, but everyone knows it, even after the grandfather settles down, the situation is the same.

The change of events happened after the Taiye settled down, and as mentioned earlier, before the Taiye arrived in Wawu Village, the remnants of the Nine Lotus God Sect slaughtered the entire village and tried to sacrifice the ghosts with blood.

After that incident, a mysterious person approached Taiye and helped him solve the strange things that happened in Wawu Village. According to the codex, the mysterious man is the most mysterious boss among the Eight Strange People, and when the Eight Strange People boss found the Taiye, the Taiye was also surprised, because he and the other party were only one-sided, and there was no intersection at all.

During the conversation, the mysterious man talked to the grandfather about the ghost over the mountain, and from his mouth, the grandfather heard the word 'forbidden land' for the first time.

It's a pity that the conversation between the two was very short at that time, and the other party's personality was a little weird, and he never said more nonsense, so when the two talked, the grandfather was mostly talking, and the content of the conversation was not much. The mysterious man told the master that there was a secret hidden in the Ghost Ridge that was enough to destroy the whole world, and at the same time asked the Master to protect the Ghost Ridge.

After the mysterious man left, the master became very interested in the 'forbidden land', and at the same time, the second disaster of resentment that affected most of Shenzhou ushered in the most terrible stage, and more and more places were attacked by resentment, and the attacked places were often devastated, and half of the living mouth was not left.

When the Taiye was assisting the various branches of Miao Wu to quell the rebellion, he heard the term 'node forbidden-land', and found that this belonged to the same concept as the 'forbidden-land' mentioned by the young man, so he began to focus on investigating the 'node forbidden-land'.

After a check, the master learned about the so-called node forbidden land, which was extremely similar to the abyss he saw when he participated in quelling the first disaster of resentment. At the same time, strange changes began to occur in the Ghost Turning Ridge, no matter day or night, there was a terrible ghost cry coming from it, and a very strange mist seeped out of the forest, but all living creatures that came into contact with the fog would disappear out of thin air, and there was a thick black air eye above the Ghost Turning Ridge from time to time.

The strangest thing is that every time I hear the cry in the Ghost Ridge become miserable, it is the time when the grievances in various places are the craziest, and the master is keenly aware of the connection between the two, so he begins to investigate the Ghost Ridge.

After investigation, he found that the kind of black gas swallowed and spit out in the Ghost Turning Ridge could stimulate the souls of the dead and make their anger surge, and the source of the disaster of the death and resentment was very likely to be related to the Ghost Turning Ridge.

With a series of investigations later, the master became more and more sure that his conjecture was correct, but there was no way to enter the Ghost Ridge, and naturally he could not prevent the disaster of resentment from the source.

This is what is recorded in these pages of the Codex related to the node forbidden land, which clearly records everything that the master has investigated and obtained.

This disappointed me greatly, if I had obtained this codex before I went to Guzhen, the secrets of the node forbidden land would have shocked me greatly, but now, I already know these contents more or less from Chen Bo and Yan Wudaokou, and the contents of these pages of codex are not of much significance.

I was just about to close the codex in disappointment, but a thought suddenly flashed in my mind, my heart said no, I know the meaning of the node forbidden land, this Yan Wudao knows, since he knows, why do he repeatedly mention the earth-shattering secret behind the node forbidden land in the letter?

Thinking of this, I began to continue flipping back, and this time I was so quick that I accidentally saw a few pages folded at the back of the whole stack of papers.

My heart moved, and I hurriedly flipped to the folded pages, and after just one glance, my pupils shrank.

I saw that on the first page that was folded, there were a few words that had been circled: conjecture about the forbidden land and the coffin.
