Chapter 54: A Book from Heaven

"You didn't guess wrong, this secret method I am cultivating now is indeed the same as that of Li Chengkong, the master of the Hanging Pavilion. ”

As soon as Pan Darong spoke, he confirmed that Qi Wanli, Li Chengxin and others had not been 100% sure before.

"However, according to my investigation, Li Chengkong's secret method should be much more complete than my cultivation, and what I have cultivated should be called a remnant. ”

Qi Wanli's fingers tapped on the table and asked, "Can you tell me what the secret method of your path is called?"

Pan Darong scratched the back of his head and said with some embarrassment: "This really doesn't have a name...... Or, I don't know anyway, Li Chengkong may know. ”

"Okay, I won't interrupt you, you go on. Qi Wanli could see that he was not lying.

Pan Darong nodded, rubbed his fat face, and said: "The story I told you before is true, I was born in Linxue, and after being ruined by Miao Fu, I escaped, and then went to some tribes to beg others to take me in, but I have no martial arts talent, and I can't even stir-fry vegetables, and no tribe is willing to take me in." ”

"Big cities, don't even think about it. There are only a few cities in the southern continent, and if I want to go to the next city, I will be torn to pieces by monsters on the way. ”

"However, a small tribe was willing to take me in, and it was asked that I be in charge of sweeping the road while they were hunting. You know that...... The Southern Continent is full of monsters, and people like me who didn't know anything at the time were basically sent to death to do this kind of work, but in order to be able to find a place to beg for stable food, where can I manage so much?"

"Maybe I was lucky, I went out hunting with the people of that tribe a few times, and I actually came back alive. At this point, I finally have a place to eat, sleep and rest. Even though the tribe wanted to treat me like a guy to die in the first place, I thanked them for giving me a chance to live. ”

Qi Wanli stretched out his hand and knocked on the table again, and said to Pan Darong, who was full of melancholy and sadness: "To get to the point, I'm not particularly interested in your sad past. And don't be delusional about arousing my sympathy in this way, it doesn't work. ”

The sadness on Pan Darong's face was swept away, and he laughed awkwardly twice.

"Good good ......"

He smiled and said, "I'll get to it right away." ”

"Anyway, in another hunting activity in that small tribe, I accidentally stepped on a mud swamp and fell into quicksand and couldn't break free, and those hunters in the tribe also wanted to save me, but I was inexperienced, struggled desperately, and sank all at once......"

"However, I have to say that I, Pan Darong, are indeed blessed with great fortune. After falling into the quicksand, I didn't die, there was actually an underground river underneath, and I followed the drift for a while and found myself in a closed room. The reason why it is called a room is because it has obvious artificial traces, and it does not seem to be a product of our time, it may be a dark age or a glorious age. ”

When Qi Wanli heard this, his face became complicated: "You mean, you stepped into a quicksand, and then you were washed into a closed room? How did you rush in? Is the ceiling of the room quicksand? Or is there an opening in the room that connects to the underground river?"

Pan Darong scratched his head and said, "How do you explain it...... Like, there was water under the quicksand, and then I drifted down the water for a short while, and somehow I was washed into that room, which is hard for me to describe, but you can probably understand that there is a one-way window in the room, and people can be washed in from the outside, but they can't get out. ”

Qi Wanli frowned, and after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't imagine what it looked like.

"Okay, I won't dwell on this, you go on, what's going on in the room?"

Pan Darong said: "Anyway, there are some iron tables in that room, and some weird things, I can't name them." I searched for a long time, looking for any mechanism or road that allowed me to get out, but I couldn't find it, but I found a very strange book. ”

"Strange book?"

"Yes, it looks like our book on the surface, but there are no words on the cover, only a black cover, and when you open it, it is not paper, but glass. The piece of glass was embedded in the book, and I clicked on it a few times, and there were words on it. ”

Qi Wanli immediately understood what Pan Darong was talking about.

His eyes lit up suddenly: "That...... What is written in that book?"

Pan Darong showed reverence on his face and said: "I studied for a while, and found that there are a lot of contents hidden on that small piece of glass, and with a flick of my fingers, the words on the glass will change, which is really a divine skill, so I call it the Book of Heaven! What is recorded in the book of heaven is the secret method that I am cultivating now." ”

"What?" Despite the preparation in his heart, Qi Wanli's heart beat wildly.

Pan Darong's words revealed an astonishing fact - as early as his own time, the secret method existed!

For a while, Qi Wanli felt a little dizzy, and his mind was swollen by this huge amount of information, but fortunately, he was now a powerful and extraordinary, his body quickly adjusted himself, and his heartbeat returned to normal, so that he would not look embarrassed.

But Pan Darong still noticed Qi Wanli's gaffe in the past few seconds, and asked a little blankly, "What's wrong?"

Qi Wanli took a deep breath, shook his head and said, "I just didn't expect that there was such a magical thing in the world. You continue. ”

Pan Darong nodded and continued: "In that book of heaven, what is recorded is not only a secret method, but also contains four parts. ”

"The first part, which I said about the secret method, is the most content. However, the secret method is incomplete, and there are many places where it is written 'to be studied' or 'content missing', but despite this, the content is intriguing and fascinating. ”

"The second part is about the room. The Book of Heaven says that if you want to open the door of the room, you must learn the most basic part of the secret method, and after mastering a few basic runes, you can open the hidden door of the room. ”

"The third part is a very brief diary of a person, I won't say too much about this part, but simply put, that person is the original owner of that room, claiming to be a scientist, saying that he found a mysterious stone, from which a lot of important information was extracted, including the above secret method. ”

"The fourth part is the description and analysis of the mysterious stone, but I can't understand the rest of it, it's all symbols that I've never seen before, even if I turn over the secret part of it and look at it countless times, I don't know what those symbols mean. ”

"Oh yes, you first asked me how I learned the secret method, and I lied to you that I saw a stone, hehe, that's why. ”

Qi Wanli had already recovered from the initial shock at this time, he pondered for a while, and asked, "Later, you learned the secret method in the room and walked out of the room with runes?"

"Hmm. Pan Darong nodded and said: "There is no food or drink there, if you don't go out, you will die sooner or later, I studied desperately, and finally before starving to death, I learned to use divine power to draw the most basic runes, opened the hidden door of the room, and survived." ”

"So, where is the book of heaven in your mouth now, can you show me?" Qi Wanli asked seriously.

Pan Darong smiled "hehe" and said, "Master Wanli, I know you will definitely ask this question. But, as you know, this thing is definitely not ordinary, and I certainly can't put it on me. What's more, it's not impossible to show you something so important, but can you use it to offset a request?"

Qi Wanli's eyes flashed, but Pan Darong shrugged his shoulders at this time: "It's useless for you to shout and kill, wow, I can see that you still care about that book of heaven, since you want to see it, let's trade normally, isn't this a win-win situation?"

"Yes. ”

After thinking about it for a while, Qi Wanli agreed to Pan Darong's request.

Pan Darong breathed a sigh of relief and laughed: "Don't worry, that thing is in the Western Continent, it's easy to find! Do you want me to lead the way or you go to find it yourself, you can do it! But if you want me to lead the way, you have to wait for me to finish dealing with Xiaosi's affairs." ”

Qi Wanli pondered for a while and said, "You tell me the place, and I'll go by myself." ”

"Aren't you afraid that I'm hiding a trap there?" Pan Darong boldly teased.

Qi Wanli smiled: "If I can't get the book of heaven you said because of the trap mechanism you set up, I will naturally come back to trouble you, and when the time comes, I will definitely not be as polite as today." ”

“......”

Pan Darong sighed and said, "I'm afraid of you." Things are in the capital, you go to Ping'an Street to find a bookstore called Hai Na Baichuan, the bookstore owner's surname is Yi, you and Boss Yi say a code, 'The fibrous roots of the banyan tree are going to be pruned', well, just say this, he will know, and he will give you the book of heaven. ”

Qi Wanli, who had participated in undercover work before, almost didn't laugh out loud: "Such an important thing, you hide it in such a childish way?"

"Is it child's play?" Pan Darong blinked.

Qi Wanli shook his head, didn't bother to explain to him, changed the topic, and asked, "Then why do you think that if Li Chengkong knows the severity of your secret method, your life will be in danger?"

Pan Darong smiled and said: "This involves the scientist's diary, although the content in it is not much, but the amount of information is not small. Do you want to listen? You can take another request in exchange?"

"Hey, you really know how to do business, huh?" Qi Wanli almost laughed out of anger, he thought for a few seconds: "Forget it, if you don't want to say it, don't say it, I don't have to know for the time being." The last request, let's keep it, I always think it can still be used. ”

Hearing this, Pan Darong shook his head: "It would be great if you agreed." My hunch just now tells me that if you don't agree, you and I will have a common and huge trouble in the future, but if you agree, this trouble will be handed over to you directly, and it will have nothing to do with me. ”

And this kind of thing?

"Then won't you persuade me a few words and let me agree?" Qi Wanli asked curiously.

Pan Darong shook his head again: "Fate is fate, what has happened will not change, the words you just said have already determined the future, no matter how much I persuade it, it is useless." ”

"It's kind of interesting. Qi Wanli smiled.

At this moment, a scream suddenly came from outside the window.

"Brother Big Banyan, there are bad guys who want to catch Xiaosi!"
