The next day, when Zilong opened his eyes, it was already afternoon.

Zilong rubbed his head and got up from his bed, yawning, and sobering up.

Last night, Zilong chatted with Cao Jin, Wang Wu, Zhang Er, and Sun Zai all night, and they dispersed at dawn.

Speaking of which, this She Tuocheng and his party, Zilong really got to know a lot of people, from the original Sun Zai, Mrs. Cheng, Ding Lei, Cheng Fei'er, Hong Lin, Cao Jin, as well as Wang Wu and Zhang Er, who don't know each other, it's only been a few days, and they have really experienced a lot of things......

Last night, Zilong chatted with everyone very speculatively, in addition to Wang Wu's commission, the wine was the head, the five of them each told the past, talked about the present, looked at the future, accompanied by candlelight, drinking wine, so unhappy.

This Wang Wu, Zhang Er, and Cao Jin are fellow villagers, and they can be regarded as partners from childhood to adulthood, Wang Wu's original name is Wang Yangwei, and Zhang Er's original name is Zhang Kaitui, which seems to be a normal name but was spoofed by the children of the same township, and gave a lot of unbearable nicknames, so the two of them directly according to the ranking of the family, simply called themselves Wang Wu and Zhang Er, and also avoided the messy trouble.

The only pity that Zilong felt was that on the first night he came to Shetuo City, the young man who drank and chatted with him was not there, otherwise, they might have been able to talk more happily. Speaking of this mysterious young man, Zilong is very regretful, the next day when he woke up, the young man has disappeared, he doesn't even know a name, and I don't know if there is a chance to see each other again.

Suddenly, the door of the house was opened, Zilong turned his head to look, and found that Sun Zai had brought a basin of water and came in with a smile on his face:

"Master, I heard the movement in the house, I think you are also up to get up, the apprentice specially gave you a basin of hot water, you wash your face, Cao Jin has already prepared the meal. ”

After three years of hard work, Zilong was still a little uncomfortable for the first time when someone was serving.

"Let's put it there first, Sun Zai, you didn't go home yesterday, your grandfather probably should be worried, you go home first and report to him that he is safe." I'm going to go to Chengfu in a while, and I'll discuss the matter last night, and tomorrow morning, we'll meet at the city gate and go back to recuperate. ”

"Yes!" Sun Jae replied cleanly, put down the hot water, and immediately walked away.

Looking at Sun Zai's appearance, Zilong also smiled bitterly.

This Sun Zai, in fact, is not bad in nature, but his experience since childhood has led him to a fork in the road. Zilong planned to take Sun Zai back to Changshan after helping Wang Wu go to the cave to explore the treasure, and hand it over to the old man Gongsun for training, after all, if he really wanted to leave and practice under the guidance of the ghost, there would be no one around the old man Gongsun.

As for the cave treasure exploration, last night, Wang Wu had revealed all the relevant information to everyone, the cave was located in the Demon Beast Mountain Range connected by the mountain behind Shetuo City, and it was discovered by Wang Wu by chance.

According to Wang Wu, the cave is full of mysterious magic circles and mechanisms, Wang Wu tried to pass through several times and almost died on the spot, Wang Wu went through the information according to the arrangement of the mechanisms and magic circles in the cave, and found that this kind of magic circle and mechanism are very similar to the methods used by the legendary Tian Gu Dao people, according to Wang Wu's judgment, this cave is one of the twenty-four secret realms left by the Tian Gu Dao people in the Central Plains.

As soon as this news came out, not only Zilong and the others were shocked, but even the ghosts in the ring were not negotiated, the twenty-four secret realms of the Heavenly Gu Dao people, this is a legendary existence.

The Heavenly Gu Daoist is a legendary power born in the Central Plains in the last era, and it is said that the Heavenly Gu Daoist is very good at the Dao Formation, and his attainments in the mechanism can be called a unique in the world. The Heavenly Gu Daoist did not have any apprentices, and according to legend, he hid and designed twenty-four secret realms in the Central Plains in his later years, including what he had learned all his life and various collections.

Before he died, the Heavenly Gu Dao people left a sentence for the world:

"No matter how high the cultivation is, there will be a day of destruction, until I was in my old age, I realized that people die like lights go out, and they can't take away a single grass and tree, but unfortunately I have not been able to find a satisfactory successor. I have divided the organs, formations, martial arts, and treasures that I have spent a lifetime learning into twenty-four places, all of which are hidden in the ancient and mysterious land of the Central Plains. ”

At that time, not only the Central Plains, but also the various forces of other lands were moved, and the atmosphere of coming to the Central Plains to hunt for treasure was also caused by the words of the Heavenly Gu Daoist, and that era was jokingly called the era of great excavation by later generations.

Many people even settled directly in the Central Plains, and the population of the Central Plains land also surged, becoming the most populous of all the lands, and the twenty-four treasures mentioned by the Heavenly Gu Dao people were called the twenty-four secret realms of the Heavenly Gu Dao people.

Closer to life, a few decades ago, there was an ordinary teenager who went up the mountain to chop wood, stumbled and fell off the cliff, but accidentally entered the enchantment laid by the old man of the Heavenly Gu, and this enchantment was the twenty-four secret realms left by the old man of the Heavenly Gu. This young man obtained the martial arts inheritance and treasures left by the old man of Heavenly Gu in the enchantment, and after more than ten years of kung fu, he jumped from an ordinary wood-chopping boy to the leader of the younger generation in the Central Plains, and also married the princess of the royal family. Decades have passed, this person is still famous in the Central Plains, he is the general Bai Jing under the Eastern Emperor Haotai, the left and right hand of the Eastern Emperor, one of the two god generals of the Rising Sun Dynasty, and his status is extremely respectful.

However, there are very few such examples, for hundreds of years, even after the era of great excavation, there are very few secret realms of Heavenly Gu Dao people that have been discovered, and most treasure hunters have never been able to find one in their lifetime.

It has been nearly four hundred years since the Heavenly Gu Dao people were destroyed, and in the past four hundred years, there have been a total of nine secret realms that have been discovered, and more than half of the secret realms are still hidden in the vast Central Plains. Of course, these nine secret realms are all news and are known to the world, and how many of the other fifteen secret realms have been secretly guarded or excavated is unknown, and some people even believe that the remaining fifteen secret realms have been secretly occupied by the major clans, families, and royal families in the Central Plains.

Watching Sun Zai leave, Zilong washed his face with hot water, and Zilong was also looking forward to tomorrow's treasure hunting.

They agreed to meet at the gate of the city early tomorrow morning, and if there was really a treasure in the cave, those who saw it would have a share, and the five would divide it equally.

"Hey, ghost, according to Wang Wu's description yesterday, that cave shouldn't be fake. Zilong asked the ghost detective.

"How can I say this, the secret realm of the Heavenly Gu Dao people, all kinds of rumors for hundreds of years, false and real, no one can say well. Maybe it's that Wang Wu's luck, the Heavenly Gu Dao people have a strange temper, and the twenty-four secret realms he arranged are even more incredible, they were all discovered by chance, and in the past four hundred years, such excavations have only found eleven places. The ghost responded.

"Eleven places, didn't Wang Wu say nine?" Zilong wondered, he clearly remembered that Wang Wu said nine places last night.

"No one can say this well, the official news, everyone in the world knows that there are nine places, but when I followed my master to travel to the Central Plains, I learned that there was a place in the Western Imperial Capital, and there was also a place in the Xuanyuan family. ”

"Master, ghost, do you still have a master?" Zilong was very surprised when he heard the ghost talk about his master.

"You have to take care of it!"

"Oh......"
