Chapter 242: Old Turtle

During the exhibition, Lin Zhihui and Chu Qianning met Qiu Shi and discovered that he had stolen one of the exhibits.

Lin Zhihui recalled that it seemed to be a jade belt buckle with some patterns on it, and there was nothing unusual about it, probably worn by an emperor in Vietnam during the Ming Dynasty of China.

At this time, a group of tourists walked in from the door, a local guide led the way in front, if he found that the exhibits were missing, maybe it would give the two of them trouble, Lin Zhihui and Chu Qianning obviously thought of this layer, glanced at each other, and turned around and left tacitly.

Walking out of Yushan Temple, pedestrians came and went on the path, Qiu Shi had long been gone, and at this moment, Lin Zhihui's phone rang.

Five minutes later.

The two of them were on the lake near the Turtle Tower, meeting up with the young man who had just arrived.

Lin Zhihui briefly talked about what happened in the exhibition hall of Yushan Temple.

"This autumn is very strange, if it is said that it happened to meet, it is too much of a coincidence, and he seems to know our whereabouts, and he is not surprised at all when he sees us. Lin Zhihui even suspected that the other party was following him and Chu Qianning.

"It's kind of funny. He reached out and touched his chin, they were just looking for someone, so there shouldn't be any conflict of interest.

Looking up and looking around, he looked at the calm lake and said, and raised the corner of his mouth: "Actually, I want to know what he is going to do." It's not that hard. ”

Chu Qianning looked at the Qianqi's eyes shining, and said curiously: "Senior Sister Gao, do you have a way?" She had seen Qianqi and Bijie before, and after she started cultivating, she subjectively regarded Qianqi as Lin Zhihui's fellow disciple, and also called Senior Sister with him.

"Of course. He smiled mysteriously and hooked his fingers at the two, "Follow me." With that, he turned around and walked along a path by the lake towards the island in the middle of the lake.

The three of them came to a remote corner of the island in the middle of the lake.

He stood closest to the water, folded his hands, said something in his mouth, and then raised his hand to shoot a black line into the water.

At the moment of submerging in the water, the black line twisted slightly, transforming into a swimming fish, slowly sinking.

Qian Qian was silent, Lin Zhihui and Chu Qianning didn't speak, just staring intently at the water.

A moment later, the water swelled and made a small splash, and a turtle the size of a basin surfaced and crawled to the shore.

The tortoise's back carapace was dark green, and in the fine sunlight, it shimmered golden, as if there were pieces of gold embedded in it.

Seeing this turtle, Lin Zhihui immediately remembered the legend about Hoan Kiem Lake and the golden turtle.

He half-crouched down, stretched out his hand and shook it in front of the turtle, and beckoned, "Long time no see." ”

The turtle slowly turned his head, and at the moment he saw the turtle, he seemed to freeze for a moment, his little black eyes turned, and he said in a strange tone: "Who am I? As he spoke, it turned its head to look at Lin Zhihui again, "I heard that you took refuge in the underworld, I didn't believe it, but I didn't expect it to be true." ”

He sneered, but he was not angry: "It's as if you didn't take refuge in Heaven, but I have never disliked you." ”

The turtle didn't speak, but continued to look at Lin Zhihui and Chu Qianning beside him.

Lin Zhihui's expression is still normal, he has been soaking with Candle Ying all day long, and there are friends like Qianqi Bijie, he has already seen no surprise.

And Chu Qianning's face did not have the slightest hint of fear, but faintly with a hint of interest, staring at the turtle vigorously, if Lin Zhihui didn't stop him, it was estimated that he would have to go up and knock on the turtle shell to see if the gold on it was real or fake.

"What are you looking for me?" The turtle seemed to judge that Lin Zhihui and the others were not any threat, and turned his head to look at Qianmo, obviously knowing that she had nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace.

He raised his hand and pointed to the Yushan Temple on the other side of the lake: "There is an exhibition hall there, and just now there was a guy who stole a belt buckle used by the emperor from it, do you know what the use of that thing is?"

The old turtle's neck moved, and he said slowly: "The belt buckle used by the emperor is not a hundred but eighty, how do I know what it is for." ”

He didn't speak, he just stared at the old turtle, and he saw that half of the old turtle's body had retreated into the water.

"With the friendship between the two of us, it's just to ask you for some news, and it's not for you to betray Heavenly Court, and you won't even give this face?"

"If I answer your question, the previous account will be written off. The old turtle was silent for a moment, tilting his head to look at the turtle.

"No problem. Of course, it depends on whether your message is worth the price?"

"Is there any special pattern on the belt buckle you were talking about? The old turtle asked.

Looking at Lin Zhihui, Lin Zhihui thought about it, picked up a branch from the shore, and roughly drew the pattern on the jade buckle on the sand in front of the old turtle.

"Well, it's a Li Di thing. The old turtle recognized it at a glance, and there seemed to be a hint of doubt in his tone, "This should be an ordinary ornament, if there is anything different, it probably has something to do with the legend of the forbidden land." ”

According to the old turtle, in the river valley not far from Hoan Kiem Lake, there was once a cave of ancient gods, which collapsed during the war between gods and demons. Twenty years ago, however, a major earthquake struck the area, and one of the entrances to the cave reappeared. At that time, it was rumored that the god man was an emperor of the Li Dynasty, and although the cave had collapsed, his inheritance was left in the core, and those who had three imperial inscriptions could enter the cave through that entrance.

"There is really such a good thing, why have I never heard you mention it?" "At that time, there were still a lot of old monsters, if you could really rely on a few inscriptions, you would have been removed from the Immortal Cave Mansion a long time ago." ”

"What do you know?" "Old Husband Turtle rolled his eyes angrily, "When there was an earthquake twenty years ago, all the demons and immortals within a radius of ten miles, no matter how high or low their cultivation level was, their strength was strong or weak, and their memories were erased, and no one knew what happened that day. ”

Hearing the old turtle's words, a look of shock flashed in his eyes, and his expression finally became serious.

"You should know that such a thing is definitely not done by someone, even the Jade Emperor does not dare to use such a forbidden technique. The only possibility is that the power of the Heavenly Dao has erased the memories of all living beings. The old turtle looked a little frightened, and his voice lowered slightly.

As long as he stepped into the cultivation process, no matter the immortals, gods and monsters, no one dared to go against the power of the Heavenly Dao, and naturally no one dared to approach that place.
