Chapter Two Hundred and One

"Kongsang Mountain," the old man said slowly, falling into a moment of thought, and then shaking his head after a moment, "The history of Kongsang Mountain is too long, I don't know why you think that there will be problems with Kongsang Mountain." I don't think it's to blame Du Zhengyi for not believing you, even if I don't have as much confidence in Qionglin as he has, I think your skepticism is incredible. ”

"What about Xingtai Mountain?" Roach asked anxiously.

"Xingtai Mountain, it's empty, there's nothing left." Wan Pei said, he frowned and thought hard, as if he wanted to remember all the scenes, "That was nearly a century ago, and Du Zhengyi was not in this world at that time, so of course he didn't know the situation under Xingtai Mountain. ”

"At that time, the first statue was not Pei Shu, right?" Roach asked casually.

"Not yet, Pei Shu had just become a Venerable at that time." Wan Pei said, "But in that Xingtai Mountain mission, the person who led the team was Pei Shu. ”

Luo Qi asked in surprise, "He has also been to Xingtai Mountain?" ”

"Yes, Pei Shu led the team, Pei Shu at that time was not as calm as he is now." Wan Pei smiled, "Pei Shu's temperament at that time was a bit like Du Zhengyi now, flamboyant and domineering, and the most important thing is to firmly believe in Qionglin's concept and be full of enthusiasm for all work. He is also a genius, as responsible as Du Zhengyi, basically adhering to the belief that the stronger the ability, the greater the responsibility, and rushing ahead of everything. ”

"But, Pei Shu is a telepath?" Luo Qi couldn't help but say, "Aren't mind mages generally controlling the field on the periphery?" ”

"Pei Shu is a fairly well-rounded mage, he is a mind mage, and his abilities beyond this are extraordinary. A century ago, Pei Shu's reputation and status in Qionglin were like today's Du Zhengyi. Wan Pei paused and said with some bitterness, "In fact, everyone understands that Pei Shu is likely to be cultivated by Du Zhengyi as his successor, and if he doesn't have an accident, he is very likely to become Venerable after middle age, and then take Pei Shu's place." ”

When Wan Pei said this, his voice finally lowered, and Luo Qi didn't speak, this matter was a dynamite fuse, Luo Qi knew that he couldn't think about it, otherwise he might be on the blacklist of customers in Zhouqiao Grass City because he ate half a street of brains.

The old soldier was lost in his musings for several minutes before he remembered that he had a task to continue telling for Roach. He looked at Roach apologetically, "Unfortunately, I don't have much to tell you. At that time, Pei Shu and I arrived at Xingtai Mountain in Shuozhou in pairs. Pei Shu first spoke to the ancient soul guarding there, and the thing was trapped in a high-energy crystal, I guess it had been trapped for about a few thousand years, and it was a bit crazy. Pei Shu knew the secret words handed down by Qionglin, and the thing reluctantly obeyed him. But most of the communication between them is in the world of consciousness, which is an area that I am not very good at, and I don't know the specifics. ”

Roach nodded understandingly, "That idea is indeed morbid and scary. ”

"You've communicated with it, too?" The old warrior looked at Roach in surprise, "Do you know the secret language of Jonlin? ”

"I don't know, strictly speaking, I woke it up, and it turned all the emotionally unstable and mentally unhealthy villagers in the neighborhood into violent psychosis." Rocky said tiredly, feeling uneasy just thinking about it. It's one thing to get yourself into trouble, it's another thing to make others unlucky.

"I see." The old warrior nodded, "I think it probably works that way, too." You ended up forcibly subduing it? ”

"It's not me, the Lotus Burner's mind strangled it to death." Roach said, and told the truth.

The old soldier's face became grim, "I think this is probably the reason why Pei Shu and Qiong Lin at that time decided to clean up Xingtai Mountain." ”

"How did you clean up there?" Lodge asked the crucial question.

Unfortunately, the old man shook his head, "I'm just in charge of going there to open the door." After the first guard was closed by Pei Shu, I was responsible for opening the gate, and Pei Shu asked me to wait outside, and he worked inside for a whole afternoon. I didn't see what he was doing, but I could feel all the traces of his magical energy, and I could tell what kind of magic he was using. He basically went from room to room underground, methodically destroying and burning, and I think he probably destroyed everything underground. ”

"If Kongsang Mountain really sealed the ancient monster Qiqi, is it possible that there is also something like that in Xingtai Mountain?" Rocky asked.

"If I had to speculate, I would have the same result as you." Wan Pei said.

Roach was a little relieved, "But what exactly is that?" The tools that the ancient mages left behind for their descendants to cleanse humanity? ”

The old mage shrugged, "Since the Lotus Burner is desperately searching, I guess this may be the case. However, the Ancestor Mage probably didn't expect that the human race would develop so quickly, and it was not too difficult for the human weapon to destroy Qiqi today. ”

"Not necessarily," Roach said softly, and the old mage's one-eyed eyes looked at him before he came back to his senses and said, "Humanity itself has imagined more than once how fragile its civilization is, and a group of poor strangers may not hurt the vitality of humanity. But if there is more than one Kongsang Mountain, there is no need to say if, Xingtai Mountain is the second Kongsang Mountain, and maybe there is a third, innumerable, distributed in different regions. If the Divine Beast Qiqi inside was unsealed at the same time and rushed towards the unprepared human community, the result would be a full-scale massacre. ”

"You have a point, I didn't think this ancient method of killing would still work?" The old soldier said.

"Is it ancient? Actually, it's not old. "If it were classified as a modern weapon, maybe humans would call it a biological weapon." ”

"I'm too old to keep up with humanity. But I think if the Lotus Burner is eyeing this, it's more likely that you're right. Fortunately, Pei Shu had already cleaned up the poor Qi of Xingtai Mountain that year. The old man said.

"So, are there any other sealed Qiqi?" Roach said worriedly, "My gut feeling is that there must be some other place where the Poor Strange is, and the Lotus Burner has already begun to look for it. ”

"If there is any, I think only Pei Shu knows." The old man pondered and said, "Or there is another possibility, that is, Qionglin does not have all the sealed lands. Whether it is Kongsang Mountain or Xingtai Mountain, in my impression, it seems to have been discovered by accident. ”

"Inadvertently discovered by outsiders." Roach corrected, "Maybe Jonlin is deliberately hiding it. ”
