Chapter 1303
After waiting for a while, Gu Zheng stood up and said to Shuang'er, who didn't know what to think, "You can rest first, I'll go around the rest of the village." ”
Shuang'er shook her head, nodded obediently, and then sat down at the stone table next to her, lost in thought.
Gu Zheng shook his head, and then walked out of the house, he was very interested in the methods of the people here to control the power of darkness, and if he wanted to absorb the pure power of darkness, maybe he would have to use some things here.
At this time, the whole village was already filled with an enticing fragrance, and according to Elder Mei, even those newcomers had a sip of soup, who made the population of this village only so large.
It's not that they don't want to expand, it's because this food is only enough to feed these people, and all the people who used before would say that there is no waste here, and everyone has to use their own labor to get food.
The elderly, weak, women and children only had to do some simple work in the village, and the children of both men and women had to be trained.
While thinking about Gu Zheng, he came to the stone platform in the middle of here, and there were no guards here, and the four figures before were not here.
The stone platform is very high, and there is only a very steep step, which is still very easy for Gu Zheng to go up.
At this time, there was still a green mist in the middle of the stone platform, but it was not as thick as it seemed from a distance, and it was already a lot rarer, as if it was some sign of spontaneous formation on the stone platform.
Gu Zheng stood on the edge and observed carefully, this Green Mist Plum Elder had seriously warned not to touch it casually, because people who did not practice the power of darkness would melt into a cloud of green liquid in an extreme time once they came into contact with it.
Although Gu Zheng felt that he should not be afraid in theory, it was better to be cautious, just standing outside and watching through the somewhat vague green mist.
There are many strange patterns carved in the center of the stone platform, and many seemingly esoteric rune spells, some green light flickers on it from time to time, and some green mist comes out from above three times, and there is an invisible force on the outermost part that makes these green mist not spread, but is still slowly absorbing the green mist, so that the total amount on it looks about the same.
Gu Zheng didn't say how proficient he was in the formation, but he still knew some of it, but at this time he couldn't understand what was depicted on it, but there seemed to be a mysterious feeling in it, which made Gu Zheng unconsciously want to explore it.
"Jingle Bells"
A very crisp voice appeared in Gu Zheng's ears, interrupting his train of thought, making Gu Zheng's heart suddenly shocked, he had forgotten his vigilance, if someone really was against him, he would probably become a corpse at this time.
But his face was not moved in the slightest, he turned around expressionlessly, and was suddenly stunned when he saw the scene in front of him.
Because the cute pet I saw before was in front of me, he was suspended in the air at this time, looking at him curiously, and the tail behind him occasionally wagged.
Seeing Gu Zheng look back at himself, it looked very happy, flying back and forth in the air, and the sound of the bell kept ringing.
Gu Zheng knew that this cute pet was asking Elder Mei by himself, and he specially told himself about it and explained it a little.
When he came here three years ago with a hunting party, he was still covered with clothes, and it looked like a pet that had been raised, or he would have been killed by the hunting party at that time.
Maybe it was a small area of black fog that appeared, so it was also sucked in, of course, maybe the owner was scattered and lost, so he followed them here.
I don't know what Han Xiu said, it will only erupt once in such a long time, in fact, there will be a black fog everywhere in the flood wilderness at all times, but the scale is very small, maybe less than the size of a person, sometimes it just appears there, no one goes in, until it dissipates by itself, and even appears in Hubo on the bottom of the sea, most of which are inhabited places.
All shrimps, crabs, rabbits and other creatures from time to time will also enter here and use them as food, so as long as they don't turn on their spiritual intelligence, they are not counted as demon people, and all of them will randomly fall in this world.
Of course, most pets come here with their owners, and the name of the village also welcomes such characters, after all, even if ordinary pets lose their mana, they still have a big fight with their bodies alone.
But this cute pet doesn't seem to be strong in combat, and it looks smart, so everyone acquiesces that it enters the village, and with his size, it can't eat much anyway, so it's just a mascot.
But the pet doesn't eat their food at all, but instead makes a home on the stone platform in the middle and feeds on the green mist.
The last time it was also a monster attacking the city, it swallowed a green crystal that they brought out, and they knew that it had such great combat power, which made them ecstatic, and this time they would continue to invite him over, and destroy the giant elephant with one blow.
Moreover, Elder Mei also told Gu Zheng that the value of the unicorn egg was far beyond his imagination, but Gu Zheng didn't care, one side of the water and soil raised one side of the creatures, he guessed that the creatures here were just some creatures that they had adapted to a long time ago, and I was afraid that their strength would be greatly reduced after they went out.
Just like the people of the Sea Clan, on the ground far from the ocean, their combat power is less than seventy percent of the total victory, so Gu Zheng doesn't care at all.
These are stone houses where there are some things, and there are many things recorded here, and Elder Mei knows a lot of things because he is curious about his own specialness.
"Whoa"
This cute pet made a crisp sound in his mouth, as if he was saying something.
But Gu Zheng showed an embarrassed face, because he didn't understand what the other party was talking about at all, he just felt that the other party's voice was very nice and tactful.
And the cute pet screamed for a long time, seeing that the other party was still that kind of blank expression, knowing that the other party didn't understand what he meant, he was suddenly deflated, turned around and flew to the side, and disappeared.
Gu Zheng was a little surprised, although he didn't understand a trace of the other party, but he could also hear the other party's anxious look, Li Hu had something to ask for help from him, why did he leave like this.
When he was puzzled, Gu Zheng saw the other party fluttering from the other side, and so far Gu Zheng didn't know how the other party could fly here without wings, and he also made a bird-like cry.
At this time, in its small hand, it was holding a green crystal that was bigger than him, which made Gu Zheng suddenly startled when he saw it, this was much larger than the one Chang Zheng took out, and he didn't know where he took it from.
At this time, the other party hugged him, flew to Gu Zheng, handed over the things in his hand, and kept screaming in his mouth.
Gu Zheng curiously reached out and took it, Chang Raid could take it empty-handed, it seemed that there should be no danger.
This green crystal did not have the coldness that I imagined, but felt a trace of warmth, but other than that, I didn't feel anything, as if it was just an ordinary vigilance.
Gu Zheng thought of Chang Zheng channeling that energy from it, but he didn't have a little bit in his body, just like a sentence looking at the mountains and crying.
The cute pet next to him saw that after Gu Zheng accepted it, he was so happy that he couldn't do it, and finally flew to his shoulder and stopped on it.
Gu Zheng was stunned, and he didn't know what was going on.
"Little one, I know you can understand me, but I don't know what you're talking about, I'm going to another place, you should get out of here. After Gu Zheng studied the stone platform for a while, he suddenly thought of the treasure house that Elder Mei had said before, and was ready to go there to see if there was any way.
Since they ordinary people can master a little, then they will definitely be able to master the method, even if they can only use this green crystal, it will also play a role at a critical moment.
Gu Zheng saw with his own eyes the beam of light inspired by the constant attack, which was also their greatest reliance on carrying out their plan.
In fact, they thought about it a long time ago, but unfortunately, this green speed of light could not break through the outer armor of the unicorn at all, so it was gone.
But the cute pet shook his head and pointed to the spar in Gu Zheng's hand, as if to say that accepting his things was to agree to its conditions.
His hand also tightly grasped Gu Zheng's collar, and there was no sign of loosening at all.
Gu Zheng didn't understand what it meant, so he had to watch and let him grasp it, he didn't think that this cute pet could only burst out with such a powerful strength by eating the spar, he must just make this gesture for the people in the village.
And Gu Zheng himself walked in the direction of the corner of the village, and now the whole village was empty, but the laughter of many people could be heard everywhere, and Gu Zheng heard satisfaction and happiness in it.
Today's harvest is enough for them to be comfortable for a while, because there is no means to keep it fresh, and all they can eat for a few days in a row that they can't eat a few times in a year.
After a while, Gu Zheng arrived at his destination easily, saying that it was a place where no one could set foot except the elders, and there was not even a gatekeeper.
Think about it, too, everyone here is running for life, how can they waste time here, and they can't learn, and that's true.
Gu Zheng looked at the house that was a little dilapidated on the outside, but the area looked not small, it occupied a corner, and it was tightly closed.
In the corner above, Gu Zheng found a gap, Gu Zheng patted his head, and hurriedly took out a small stone, what Elder Mei gave himself, clicked it on it, and pushed it to the stone door in front of him again.
With a rumbling sound, this time the stone door was opened without much effort, and a large green light emerged from inside, and at the same time, a smell of rotten yin tide came to his face.
Gu Zheng stood outside the door for a moment and waited until the breath inside almost dissipated, and then slowly walked in.
Under the illumination of the green light of countless stones outside, Gu Zheng could see the scene in the house at a glance.
In the middle there are many tall stone tablets, the large ones are three zhang high, almost reaching the roof, the small ones are only five or six feet low, and when you look at them, they are carved with dense small characters, and on the edge are pieces of stone books the size of books, and there are several stone shelves near the doorway.
There were a few dull magic weapons on it, a disc-like thing, a magic weapon like a lantern, and a small black ball that did not slip up, all of which seemed to have fallen here with their masters, and there was no place for them.
But it has not been damaged until now, it looks very high-grade, it still looks new and bright, there are obvious traces of wiping, it seems that this place is being maintained.
Not only the magic weapons, everything looks very clean, it seems that people often come to clean this place, Gu Zheng thought that it was all covered with dust, and it was a messy situation.
The handwriting on each stele has deepened a lot, and it seems that it has been caused by wiping the dust inside over time.
"Young man, what are you doing here? Gu Zheng was thinking about it, and suddenly an old voice came from his ears, Gu Zheng's mind was all noticed by these, plus the other party walked very lightly, he didn't pay attention at all.
Gu Zheng looked back, a gray-haired old man, obviously old, bowed slightly, holding a somewhat gray strip of cloth in his hand, it seemed that he was cleaning up here.
"I'm here to find some information, I wonder if the old man can point me out?" asked Gu Zheng politely.
"Of course you can, but I don't know what you're looking for, most of them are left by the previous people, hoping that one day they can continue their path, but unfortunately everything is useless now. The old man bypassed Gu Zheng and came to the magic weapon next to him, stretched out his hand full of wrinkles, picked up the thing on it, and saw that it was gently wiping it, the movement was very slow, but it was very cognitive.
Gu Zheng found that the other party's legs and feet were a little uneasy, so he didn't ask his own question first, but pointed to the stone tablet inside and asked, "Are you here for everything, how long have you been here?"
The old man's movements paused, then moved again, and said unhurriedly, "It's been about a few decades, the young man is injured, his legs and feet are not good, and he can't go out hunting, so he can be said to be a wasted person." ”
Then he put the dish that had been wiped back in his hand, picked up the magic weapon next to him and continued.
"This is also built by the predecessor who arranged the formation before, and then some people filled it with some things one after another, so I was sent here to be responsible for the maintenance of this place, and it can be regarded as giving me a bite to eat, otherwise I would have starved to death decades ago, I didn't expect to be able to eat such a thing, otherwise you wouldn't be able to see me, I haven't been here for a long time, just lying in bed and waiting to die." ”
There was no complaint in his tone, as if he was just stating some facts that should have been.
After Gu Zheng heard this, he felt a little melancholy, but the other party didn't seem to have so-called grievances, as if everything was going well, which made Gu Zheng feel that he should stop Elder Chang's plan, and not affect the ordinary people in their village in order to satisfy their personal grievances.
Even if you learn the immortal method, you don't have enough resources and aura here, and you can't break through this layer of space at all, and the most unlucky people will be ordinary people at that time.
"Uncle, I don't know where you know where you know how to master the power of darkness?" Gu Zheng asked respectfully at his back.
The old man didn't answer, but after the last ball was wiped, he said to Gu Zheng.
"You newcomers, you don't give up, no one has succeeded so far, even the former adults have not succeeded in taming it. ”
"There is no way to control the power of darkness, and even if there is, it is impossible to put it here, and the stone tablet in the middle of the three rows together may be able to help you there. After saying that, the old man turned around and walked to the side, picked up the long book underneath, and began to wipe it carefully.
Gu Zheng saw that the other party was not trying to take care of himself, so he continued to walk towards the middle, looking at the stone tablets next to him along the way.
"I am in the late stage of the Golden Immortal, the human race monk Lin Mu, I can't bear the loss of the original practice of the master, I hope that when someone can go out, I will return the law to the Lingyan Sect again, located in the ..... of Luzhou in the north."
"I am in the middle of the Golden Immortal, the Terran monk Cankun, I hope someone can help me take care of my Jiaren, located in the Qinghai City of Ou Ling Wang Gui in the middle of the Nanzhan Continent, my exercises are very ordinary, but I wrote down my cultivation experience, I hope to help you, in the cultivation..."
"I am the pinnacle of the Golden Immortal, the Terran monk Xiyang Miao, I am a scattered cultivator, I have nothing to worry about, I just don't want my self-created exercises to disappear like this, I hope you can take it out and help me find another successor to pass it on....."
Here to count and see, there are at least hundreds of stone tablets, scattered and very regular placed in them, from the last time of the stone tablet, the most recent one is in 30,000, a golden immortal left in the late period.
The layers of stone tablets are all the things left behind by the dead predecessors, but none of them are all characters above the Golden Immortal Stage, and maybe even if they are lower, they may not be able to enter here.
Of course, Gu Zheng knew that maybe more people had left nothing of their own, and maybe more people died on the way out, willing to become a nameless bone, rather than stealing their lives here.
Because this is not something that human beings can resist at all, I don't know that the bones of many people have fed the demon beasts here.
Although everyone seems to have figured it out when they write it, and they are not hoping to go out and leave this world where there is no hope at all, Gu Zheng can still feel that between the lines, there is a lot of despair and hope.
Gu Zheng's pace slowed down, and his mood became heavy, and each stone tablet represented a person who wrote these things in despair, and finally died alone.
In the end, Gu Zheng completely stopped, took a deep breath, and then turned around and turned back again.
He began to write down the words of the stone tablet one by one, not skimming them before, but remembering each one in his mind and storing it.
When you go out, you have the opportunity to pass on their wishes, although you don't know where many of the places above are, but you can ask someone to go, there will always be a way.
Perhaps knowing Gu Zheng's thoughts, the green fluorescence around the whole area began to fade, and the green words appeared in the air one by one.
The guard looked at the scene in astonishment, and his hand trembled slightly, and the cute pet's whole expression was already in a trance, it couldn't understand the space, and it was already in a dizziness.
