Chapter 518: Divine Gate
Ye Jiuqing and the others stopped in front, and the Chiyou who led the way stood like a statue, and when I walked forward, the mountain shown on the guqin was already in full view, surrounded by undulating mounds and dense formations. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
I looked around with some doubts, Chiyou is the guardian of the gods, they should know the location of the demon kingdom very well, I originally thought that Chiyou would take us directly to the demon kingdom, but it stopped in this mountain forest where there is nothing.
Take me back to the Demon Kingdom.
I stepped forward and used my consciousness to communicate with Chiyou, but the twelve Chiyou did not move at all, they did not have the ability to communicate with me, and could only complete the instructions according to my instructions.
Suddenly, I reacted and spun around in surprise: "Could it be ...... This is the Demon Kingdom?! ”
"Where?" Tian Ji was at a loss.
Chiyou can obey my orders with a happy heart, the place where they stay should be the demon country, I subconsciously looked at the ground where I was standing, and hurriedly took out the probe shovel and laid a cavern near Chiyou.
But the dirt that you brought on the shovel is the original life and death soil, and there is no trace of artificial excavation and construction here, Ye Jiuqing was worried that there was something missing, so he asked everyone to dodge, and centered on the place where Chi You was standing, and intensively laid the exploration of plum blossom piles around.
The deepest part of the ground is six or seven meters underground, and from the soil samples on the shovel, it is absolutely impossible for there to be traces of large-scale ruins in the ground in this area.
"The place indicated by the clues on the guqin is here, and even Chiyou brought us to this place, why can't we find the Demon Kingdom?" The palace lord was at a loss.
Everyone was a little disappointed, sitting on the ground with their heads down, I walked back to Chi You, and asked in an accentuated tone, "The Demon Kingdom is here?" ”
Chiyou nodded at the same time.
I frowned even more dazedly, and then pointed to the ground: "The demon kingdom is built underground? ”
Chiyou didn't react, this is a representation of negation, I gradually realized that Chiyou can only answer what I am sure of, I lowered my head and thought about it and asked thoughtfully: "Point out the location of the demon kingdom to me." ”
All the weapons in the hands of the twelve Chi You were waved at the same time, and they were standing in different directions, but the weapons were pointing to the same place at the same time, that is, the position where Ye Jiuqing and the others were sitting, and I and the others looked at each other at a loss, not understanding the meaning of Chi You's instructions at all.
I also sat back helplessly, everyone racked their brains and thought for a long time, and they couldn't figure out where the demon kingdom was.
"How many days are left?" I asked with a heavy sigh.
No one answered, and no one was willing to say the number, because this time represented death.
"Nine days."
Wen Ru sat across from me, his voice calm, and he looked completely irrelevant.
"Then you must remember this time, if something happens to Zhiqiu in nine days......"
"I'm not afraid of death." Wen Ru returned to his fearless appearance.
"Dead? You think I'm going to let you die? "I smiled coldly, remembering that Xie Tianhui once said to Akai Jialong, death is actually the greatest mercy, and the result that falls on my hands will only be life worse than death, just like the Witch Gu King, death will become liberation." I will keep you alive and let you spend every day in endless torment and torment. ”
"Even if he is made to endure the pain of life every day, if Zhiqiu encounters misfortune, no matter how much you torture him, you can't change the facts." Gong Jue raised his head, his voice was unusually calm, and then looked at Wen Ru. "Don't you want to go to the Demon Kingdom to become a god, you have been planning for so long for this purpose, and now that the Demon Kingdom is close at hand, why can't you help a little."
"You expect him to help? Forget it, thank God this bastard didn't fall into the well. Tian Ji smiled coldly.
I frowned, and the words of the palace lord also reminded me that this is the deepest part of Jiulian Mountain, and I saw many statues left by the descendants of Jiuli in the Western Jin Dynasty along the way, which shows that there were many Jiuli people here thousands of years ago.
Presumably, the Demon Flower Mantis was sent by the ancestral god before the disappearance of the Demon Kingdom, in order to prevent anyone from entering the Demon Kingdom without authorization, which shows that in the Western Jin Dynasty, the Jiuli people should have seen the Demon Kingdom.
"At that time, although the ancestors of Jiuli knew about the existence of the Demon Kingdom, the only one who could enter and contact the gods was the priest, that is, the later Witch Gu King." The high priest said beside him.
"Since the Witch Gu King knows how to enter and exit the Demon Kingdom...... "My eyes lit up and looked at Wen Ru." The purpose of the Witch Gu King leaving his bloodline and those ancient books is so that future generations can return to the Demon Kingdom and find the curse of the gods who come into contact with him, so that the Witch Gu King will definitely leave the location of the Demon Kingdom in the ancient books. ”
"Before the god closed the demon kingdom, he erased the memory of all the people who knew the location of the demon kingdom, the reason why the witch Gu king can still remember the demon kingdom is only because he was contaminated with the blood of the gods when he was assisting the gods, but although the memory has not been completely erased, but about the demon kingdom, the memory of the witch Gu king is also completely fragmented, and he can't remember many things." Wen Ru said.
"What about the ancient books, didn't you say that every time the Witch Gu King enters and leaves the Demon Kingdom, he will record it in great detail afterwards, and there is a record of the location of the Demon Kingdom in the ancient books?" Ye Jiuqing asked.
"Yes, but most of them are descriptions of the Demon Kingdom and everything God does, but there is no detailed record of the location of the Demon Kingdom." Wen Ru lowered his head in contemplation as he spoke, and said thoughtfully after a moment. "But there's one thing mentioned in the ancient books."
"What's the matter?" We asked in unison.
Wen Ru picked up a branch on the ground, wrote a word on the ground, and looked up to tell us that in any religion, it can be roughly divided into three realms, the top is the supreme divine realm, the middle is the human realm, and the bottom is the world of the dead.
However, the Witch Gu King recorded in the ancient books that the ancestral gods were not divided in this way, there were only humans and gods, but humans and gods did not coexist.
"It's not that the Demon Kingdom of the Ancestral God is that other descendants of Jiuli can't enter or leave, but that no one except the gods can enter the Demon Kingdom." Wen Ru erased the strokes on the ground, and the word "eye" became a Japanese character. "Man and God were separated before."
"Then why can the Witch Gu King enter and leave the Demon Kingdom?"
"Because God has given the Witch King such an ability, he is the only one who can enter the Demon Kingdom."
"And then? Since the Witch Gu King mentioned it in the ancient books, can he leave a way to enter the Demon Kingdom? I asked anxiously.
Wen Ru wiped a gap in the middle of the Japanese characters: "Divine Gate!" ”
"Shenmen?" Xue Xinrou was puzzled. "What is the Divine Gate?"
"It is the door that connects the Demon Kingdom, and it is also the only entrance that can enter the Demon Kingdom, and you can only enter the Demon Kingdom when the Divine Gate is opened."
"A door?" My brows furrowed even tighter, at this time, Wen Ru couldn't wait to go to the Demon Kingdom, he didn't have any reason to say anything, I looked back and forth for a long time, and I couldn't sketch the door that Wen Ru described in my mind.
And there is nothing but grass and trees here, there is no door at all.
"You mean to say that the Witch Gu King entered and exited the Demon Kingdom through a door?" The palace lord asked thoughtfully.
"The Witch King is indeed recorded like this in the ancient books."
Tian Ji stared at the incomplete Japanese characters on the ground, scratched his head and said: "You shouldn't be talking nonsense, what kind of god gate, I don't believe that a door can lock the demon kingdom, besides, the demon kingdom should be here, you open your eyes and see, where is the door in this place." ”
"Is there a god who destroyed the gate of the gods when he died in the demon kingdom in order to prevent people from entering the demon kingdom again?" Xue Xinrou asked Tian Ji to calm down for a while.
I shook my head, there shouldn't be this possibility, when I used my consciousness to communicate with Chiyou before, these twelve Chiyou were not patron saints, but waiting for God, which shows that the demon kingdom is not closed, and Chiyou is waiting for the people who reopen the demon kingdom.
Therefore, it is impossible for the Divine Gate to be destroyed, thinking of this, I hurriedly asked Wen Ru: "If there is really a Divine Gate, how did the Witch Gu King open this door?" ”
"Since it is a divine gate, only gods can be opened, and the witch Gu king enters and exits the demon kingdom, although it is through the divine gate, it is not opened by the witch Gu king."
"A door that God can open?" My brow furrowed even tighter, I believed that what Wen Ru said was true, but I could never imagine what the Divine Gate would be like.
With the scale and size of the Demon Kingdom, how can a door be able to block it, but since the Witch Gu King is left in the ancient books, he is so eager for future generations to find the Demon Kingdom, and there will definitely be no deviation in the record.
I asked Wen Ru in detail, he didn't have to think about it at all, every word in those ancient books was well remembered in his mind, and Wen Ru was sure to tell us that about the location of entering the Demon Kingdom, the ancient books only mentioned the Divine Gate.
Moreover, it is a door that separates man and God, and one step away can enter and exit the two completely different worlds of man and God, but there is no other record.
I sighed secretly in my heart, the Witch Gu King may not have missed the key to the Divine Gate, presumably even he himself did not know the method of opening the Divine Gate, and his ability to enter and exit the Demon Kingdom was completely arranged by the ancestral gods.
I got up and walked in front of Chi You again, and asked seriously if there was a divine gate at the entrance to the demon kingdom, Chi You nodded, and when I asked the location of the divine gate, the weapons in their hands pointed to the previous position again.
I was a little surprised, and asked where the Demon Kingdom was, and Chi You pointed there, and the Divine Gate was actually in the same position as the Demon Kingdom, since the Divine Gate really existed, there would definitely be any clues and traces left.
I asked everyone to look around to see if there was anything missing, and after searching for most of the day, they still found nothing, and it was getting late, I really didn't expect that there would be so many obstacles to finding the Demon Kingdom, Ye Jiuqing said that since the Demon Kingdom has been unheard of for thousands of years, it is estimated that it will not be so easy to be discovered, since they have all found here, it is better to rest for one night first and then think about it in the long run.
