Chapter 901: Towering Stone Carvings
Leaving the branch of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance, Qi Wentian led Ge Wei all the way to the tour, the two talked and laughed, as if they were familiar at first sight, and soon came to another area of ruins. The place just now is connected to the landing ground of Beixu, and it is Beixu. He took Ge Wei to a place where there were many more people than just now.
"Brother Wei, this is the middle ruin, the center of the ruin. Most of us gather here. The headquarters of various chambers of commerce and the headquarters of the Guixu Chamber of Commerce Alliance are all here. It can be said that the most important place to return to the ruins. He enthusiastically introduced.
"There are a lot of people. Ge Wei nodded in agreement, this place is indeed very lively, worthy of the middle market, compared to the relatively remote feeling of the North market, it is quite prosperous, crowded, and merchants of all races walk leisurely on the street here. There are also many shops on both sides of the road, where all kinds of merchants are constantly shouting and selling their wares.
Without exception, all of them were level 10 or higher merchants.
These bigwigs who are rich in the world in their own plane, after coming to Guixu, they have to set up stalls on the roadside like small traders, which really makes Ge Wei a little funny and touched. Guixu is the real paradise of the big businessman......
When Chuan Wentian explained, what he saw here was only a small number of stalls. The real commercial street in Zhongxu is not here yet. When you actually go to the commercial street, there are many shops and are a hundred times more prosperous than here. Ge Wei couldn't help but be even more surprised. He was eager to see what Guixu Commercial Street looked like.
The two walked in the crowd, and the buildings they saw along the way, they took the trouble to introduce Ge Wei to them. Most of the chambers of commerce in Guihui have headquarters or offices in Zhongxu. Along the way, Ge Wei heard the names of many chambers of commerce. Like the Aurora Chamber of Commerce and the Tai Chi Chamber of Commerce, these two have been heard many times. More are the names of the Chamber of Commerce that Ge Wei didn't know, and Ge Wei only wrote down a few special ones: the Solomon Chamber of Commerce. The Three Realms Business Alliance, as well as the Cuppy Gold Regiment.
Because of these three chambers of commerce. It is the third of the five largest chambers of commerce in Guixu. The other two are the Aurora Chamber of Commerce and the Taiji Chamber of Commerce.
These five chambers of commerce dominate Guixu. Each house has thousands of merchants under its banner, all of them level 10. And the planes mastered by the five chambers of commerce are even more numerous.
In addition to these five major chambers of commerce, Guixu also has a large number of chambers of commerce, mostly small-scale chambers of commerce, accounting for almost half of the total population of Guixu. The other half are members of the five major chambers of commerce. According to incomplete statistics, the total population of Guixu is about 80,000. It should be noted that these 80,000 people are the number of permanent returnees, not including those who often go out to return to the ruins to various planes. Counting up, the total number of merchants registered in Guixu. I'm afraid there are at least a million of them! The daily flow of people to and from the four landing sites in the southeast, north, and west is a terrible number.
How big is the ruins? This is something that Ge Wei has never figured out.
Until Slash Wentian told him that Guiru was not actually a planet, and it was not a plane at the same time. Ge Wei was a little confused. After explaining in detail, he knew that Guiru was a special place, and Guiru was neither a plane nor a conventional space. This is the place between all known planes, the center point of the Great Plane, and has the name "The End of the World".
It is said that the return to the ruins is the end of all planes, the end of time and space. It is the end of the world.
It wasn't until Ge Wei saw the monument that he understood the meaning of this sentence.
Cutting Wentian took Ge Wei to a place. In fact, it can't be said to be a belt, but it is really this place, and it is impossible for people in the ruins to see it or not.
It is a giant stone monument. The height cannot be measured, because this giant monument reaches the Heavenly Dome of Guiru. There is an end to the sky of the ruins, although it is not completely closed. But someone has been there and claimed that there is nothing outside the heavens of the ruins. It is an empty nothingness that can no longer be emptied. And this giant monument is directly on the heavenly dome of the ruins. Its height is terrifying. It's incredible.
When Ge Wei saw this giant monument from afar, his mouth was big and his face was full of incredulity.
"This is a towering stone carving. It is impossible for anyone who comes to Zhongxu not to see it. He said with a smile.
"Indeed......"
Ge Wei came to the foot of the giant monument and looked up at this stone carving like a pillar of heaven, and there was still handwriting on it.
"What are these words......
As soon as Ge Wei wanted to ask, as soon as his eyes fell on the handwriting on the inscription, a stream of information immediately poured into his mind. The contents of the inscription were cleaned up in his sea of knowledge and translated into a language he could understand:
"At the beginning of the famine, one gas and three clear, three clear all things, and all things grow. There is a long way, the Tao is divided into yin and yang, yin and yang two give birth to four, four give birth to eight, eight yan twenty-eight, two eight yan forty-eight, four eight yan eighty-eight, rich is prosperous, prosperity is extremely declining. At the beginning of the restart, the universe collapsed, and all things returned to ruins. ”
In a trance, Ge Wei suddenly withdrew from the sea of knowledge. I saw the next to him and looked at him with a smile on his face.
"What is this?" said Ge Wei.
"What you just saw was the inscription on the towering stone inscription, and everyone who came to see the stone tablet would automatically translate into his language and reflect it in his mind. The content described in this inscription, and what it specifically means, are actually divided among the ruins. But most of the time everyone thinks that they are talking about the origin of the ruins. He explained with a smile.
"Where did the ruins come from?"
"That's right. The original birth of Guiru, what is the reason, and when was it born, and so on. However, no one knows why this inscription was erected here and by whom. The appearance of the ruins is older than anything we know. All of us, in fact, are just passers-by who are temporarily staying in the ruins. That's all. He said with a smile.
Ge Wei nodded and remained silent.
Just as he received the contents of the inscription, a realization appeared in his heart. He remembered that the Starlight Dragon Clan's transcendent Blue Moon had said that the Starlight Dragon Clan's third plane was about to collapse, which caused them to want to take refuge in someone else's plane domain. According to what Blue Moon said, the birth of each plane of the Great Plane is inseparable from the final collapse. Every plane will eventually collapse, the difference is only sooner or later.
The plane of the Starlight Dragons has flourished and declined. And when a plane decays and eventually collapses, everything will revert to nothingness, just as it was before the plane was born.
All of this, over and over again, and so on. After Ge Wei saw the inscription, he had a feeling of déjà vu. He was almost certain that what the inscription described was the same thing as the plane collapse that Blue Moon had spoken of.
Is this the origin of the return to the ruins? )
