Chapter 3: The Ring
Before you know it, the sun is crossing the sky, and it has set a little westward!
After four hours of difficult progress, Liu Qiu finally approached the target ruins, and the ruins here were only a corner from afar, but when standing next to the ruins, Liu Qiu felt an unprecedented shock! The ruins were mixed with broken glazed bricks and tiles, shining in the sun, all of which told Liu Qiu that this was once a glorious fairyland palace!
Liu Qiu squinted his eyes, observed the surrounding ruins, and involuntarily began to move around the periphery of the ruins. At this time, Liu Qiu's pupils dilated, and under a piece of charred giant wood in front of him, there was a corpse that was almost unrecognizable. Liu Qiu froze his mind, stared at the corpse, slowly walked to the corpse, squatted down and looked at the corpse carefully! Liu Qiu frowned slightly, thinking, the death of this corpse and the destruction of the surrounding palace should be the same reason, and let an immortal in the fairyland die, and this fairyland also fell to the Penglai Continent, could it be that the immortal encountered some powerful enemy! The more he thought about it, the more entangled he became, Liu Qiu's heart was extremely shocked, but all this was not something he could control......
Well???
Liu Qiu seemed to be carrying a ring on the charred black ring finger that he inadvertently found the immortal, and the ring was dyed black, if it wasn't for Liu Qiu squatting down to observe, it would be difficult to find the existence of this ring.
The body and soul of immortals are often not as powerful as some of their own treasures, and in the event of a great calamity, the immortals may die, but their treasures may be preserved. Just like the ring that Liu Qiu found at this time, except for the surface that was slightly blackened, the rest was intact.
Liu Qiu knew in his heart, the purpose of his trip was here, the ring in the hands of the immortals was by no means an ordinary thing, he endured the excitement in his heart, stretched out his hands to take the ring, when the hand touched the hand of the corpse, the hand !!that clicked the corpse suddenly broke, Liu Qiu's hands flashed, suddenly stood up, cold sweat broke out!! Liu Qiu is a person who grew up in a small mountain village after all, although the courage can not withstand the sudden change, half a moment later, Liu Qiu calmed down, squatted down again, and gently picked up the ring that had already rolled to the ground. Holding it in the palm of his hand, the ring is intact, but the dark ring looks unpretentious, Liu Qiu tried to rub off the dark layer of dust on the surface of the ring with his hand, but the dust was not as Liu Qiu imagined, just attached to the outer layer. Liu Qiu stretched out his left hand and held his breath to gently carry the ring on his ring finger, but the ring was still unpretentious and unpretentious, without movement. Liu Qiu didn't care, he knew in his heart that this ring was by no means like its appearance!
After the ring was brought, Liu Qiu was even more full of expectations for this ruin, he hurriedly stood up, dug a simple soil pit next to it with the iron gun in his hand, and slowly put the blackened corpse into it and buried it. With all that done, he continued to search around the edge of the ruins!
Along the way, Liu Qiu slowed down as much as possible, although he was in a hurry to find the treasures left here, but he was convinced that there would be no other human beings here, so he was not in a hurry, his eyes searched back and forth for every piece of land on the edge of the ruins, not letting go of any dead end. But a figure flashed at the other end of the ruins dozens of feet away from Liu Qiu, and if you look at him carefully, you will find that he only has a human body, his head is a huge wolf head, and there is also a gray tail like a broom behind his hips. His fingers were slightly longer than those of a human, and he was holding a wooden stick covered with dead knots in his hand, slightly hunched over, and his eyes were shining, as if he was looking for something.
Demon !!
This is the reason why the old hunter once reminded Liu Qiu not to go deep into the canyon, in the depths of this mountain, there are no people for a long time, but this is the paradise of the demon clan. The demons are warlike and unfriendly to humans. But since a demon war 10,000 years ago, after the demon clan was subdued by the power of the fairyland, and signed a treaty that they would never step into the human gathering place, all the demon clans retreated to the deep mountains and old forests, inaccessible places, and never dared to haunt the territory of human beings.
But in the same way, once the human race strays into the land of the demon race, it is still nine deaths, although "the big demon in the mountain eats people" has become a line used by adults in Penglai Continent to scare children, but only a few people know that there is really a man-eating demon clan in this world......
The sun has been in the west for a long time, and Liu Qiu is still carefully searching for the ruins, but at this time Liu Qiu is no longer in the outer layer of the ruins, not long ago Liu Qiu climbed up the ruins along a collapsed stone wall and headed towards the center of the ruins. During this period, Liu Qiu found three more corpses, but these three corpses were empty, although Liu Qiu was a little disappointed but did not hit much, he still continued to search very carefully, and then Liu Qiu felt that it was not too early to search the inner layer, so he found an easy way to climb up to the high place of the ruins.
The high part of the ruins is full of charred wood, broken bricks and tiles, and collapsed stone walls, so it is extremely difficult to walk......
The wolf-headed demon clan doesn't speak human language, but the demon clan is not stupid, he guessed the same as Liu Qiu, so he naturally knew that this must be a big opportunity for him, and the search was also very careful, but he was not as lucky as Liu Qiu, so far he has found nothing, he was already a little irritable, he bared his teeth and made a whirring sound in his mouth. Still, he didn't give up, his slender eyes rolling back and forth, and he began to move towards the inner layers of the ruins.
The wolf demon and Liu Qiu didn't know that there was a foreign race a few zhang away, they just focused on the stone wall, in the ruins, getting closer and closer, getting closer and closer...... It wasn't until Liu Qiu and the wolf demon were ten zhang away that they suddenly made a discovery, and with excitement, Liu Qiu lowered his body and stared at a gourd stuck in a crack in the stone, and there was a circle of gems around the gourd, although in the black stone crevice, the careful Liu Qiu still found it. On the surface, the gourd must not be ordinary!
And at the moment when Liu Qiu lowered his body, the wolf demon glanced in the direction where Liu Qiu was, because of the stone wall on the ruins, the wood was disorganized, and Liu Qiu lowered his body, the wolf demon did not find Liu Qiu. The wolf demon snorted softly, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes! But after confirming that there was no one, he stopped paying attention and continued to search to the side.
Liu Qiu carefully looked at the stone crack and found that the lower edge of the stone crack could accommodate him, although he was tall, but after all, he was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and his body was very weak. Liu Qiu put the iron gun into the package, hung the package around his neck, supported the stone wall with both hands, and slowly went deep into the stone crack with his legs, and gradually all his body went into the stone crevice, Liu Qiu found that the stone crack was very wide underneath, and there was a small hole that could accommodate a person to sit cross-legged, and he slowly stretched out his hand to the gourd in the corner of the stone crevice......
