Volume II, Chapter 143

The top of this flying fortress measures about 3,000 meters square, and it is covered with patterns, about the size of a baby's fist, densely arranged. Walking on the top of the fortress but feeling that the soles of his feet were slipping and slipping, especially compared to the ice surface, fortunately, Fang Xu and the four of them were all profound martial arts people, and they were calm and calm, and it didn't take much effort to walk.

There is a wellhead in the center of the top surface, as described by Nangong Yinxue, this is an octagonal opening, with a diameter of about four meters, concentrating on the inside, only to see a piece of pure blue, it seems to be transparent but can not see through, this strange feeling makes several people very uncomfortable, Fang Xu condensed his luck and carefully probed his hand into the wellhead, and the result was unhindered, it can be seen that the original protection device of the wellhead has been opened.

"This must be the entrance, but how do you get there? you can't jump in or take a ladder down from here. Fang Xu muttered to himself. This strange cuboid is full of strangeness, it is unpredictable, the mechanism is unknown, no matter how bold he is, he does not dare to enter rashly.

"You can try it first. Xie Tianzun said with a smile, as he spoke, he took out the phone and shook it, Fang Xu's eyes lit up, and he nodded with a smile, indeed, it is inconvenient for the living to enter, but the dead can go to explore the way.

Xie Tianzun threw the mobile phone into the well, the four of them listened attentively, and there was no sound of heavy objects falling to the ground after a long time, and what was even more strange was that there was no sound of breaking the sky from the beginning to the end, the four of them glanced at each other, and a look of surprise appeared on their faces, Fang Xu was about to speak, and something strange happened. The light at the wellhead rose sharply, and the four of them quickly avoided it, concentrating on vigilance, but nothing happened after a false alarm, and when the four of them walked to the edge of the wellhead again, Fang Xu suddenly lost his voice and said, "What are you kidding?"

Chu Tiantian and the others followed his gaze, and they were also stunned, there was a black object floating in the middle of the well, but it was the mobile phone that Xie Tianzun threw into the well.

Xie Tianzun took the phone and threw it into the well again. The same situation happened again, and after a dazzling burst of light, the phone honestly stopped in the center of the wellhead without damage.

"The level of technology in this thing. It's been over for I don't know how many years, there's no pass. It won't let anything through. Maybe this thousand-armed Guanyin is a pass. Fang Xu smiled and joked as he opened the box in his hand and took out the Thousand-Armed Guanyin, trying to find out the connection between the treasure and the entrance, in vain, no matter where the Thousand-Armed Guanyin was placed, there was no sign of it, and in disappointment and puzzlement, the four of them sat cross-legged around the well. Each chatting about his feelings.

"After I pierced the white jade sword into the black beam in the middle of the wellhead, this earth-shattering change occurred, and at this moment the beam of light has disappeared, and the original protective device of the wellhead has also disappeared, so it can be seen that the legend about these five treasures should not be groundless, and the remaining four treasures should be able to help us enter this mysterious fortress. It's just that we didn't find the right way to use it. Nangong Yinxue said softly.

"It seems that this should be the case, but all the classics don't indicate how to use these treasures, but what should we do?" Chu naturally shook his head helplessly.

"Maybe my master will know. Fang Xu muttered to himself. And Chu Tiantian and the others lit up when they heard this, and infinite hope rose in their hearts, in their minds, Mo Wentian is a god-like existence, since he is a god, maybe there is a way.

After a while of discussion, the four of them decided to stay on hold for the time being, and Fang Xu would contact Mo Wentian first to determine their future moves.

"I don't think the government will let this situation go. Nangong Yinxue frowned and looked into the distance, there were some vehicles coming in the distance, I don't know if it was the government or a private car, in short, listening to the changes in Qinhu Lake would definitely not be able to hide it from the world, so Nangong Yinxue said worriedly, "Such a big thing is floating in the air, the army can't hide it if it wants to, in a few days, it must be known to the world, if we can't find a way, the government may take action?" ”

Fang Xu smiled and said nonchalantly: "From the ground, if they can use modern technology to enter it, it will save us too much trouble." Even if they can't get in, it's a good thing that they do research or something, and since it's beneficial and harmless, don't pay attention to them. ”

...

Fang Xu and the four of them went down to the ground, and everyone below looked at the four of them with excited and fearful eyes, perhaps in the hearts of many people, these four superpowers have been equated with this strange fortress, Bai Shixian and Foton and others couldn't wait to come over, and in addition to the representatives of the military of various countries, there was also Li Qixin, the secretary of the CZ Acting Municipal Party Committee (Qiu Ming was shuanggui a few days ago, the specific reason is unknown, there is a grapevine that because of the amount of Huanglong Cheng Xiang three******** Disappeared under his nose, so he was angry) and Mayor Yun Tianluo, and Yun Tianluo looked at Fang Xu's eyes shocked, just when he saw Fang Xu slide down the smooth wall of the fortress, the height of hundreds of meters was like walking in his own courtyard for him, such a thing beyond the scope of his cognition made him in a trance for a while, and his brain seemed to be a little short-circuited, in fact, it was not just him, almost everyone greeted the arrival of Fang Xu and the four of them with a stunned expression.

"Nothing was found. Chu naturally spoke, and then added, "There is a hole above, which is the wellhead, which should be the entrance." ”

Chu naturally then informed everyone of the bizarre scene that happened on Shicai, and everyone looked at each other, and Forton hesitated: "So this fortress rejects those illegal intruders, it didn't destroy the mobile phone, but sent it back to the entrance intact, maybe it is not malicious aggressive, and has a fairly high artificial intelligence, which can distinguish the identity of the intruder, or that there is some kind of highly intelligent creature operating it, in short, no matter what, all this makes people... Just... It's just too much.... ”

Forton couldn't find the right words to describe his mood at the moment, but the excitement was undisguised on the old face.

"This Thousand-Armed Guanyin may allow us to enter this fortress unharmed, but we don't know exactly how to use it. So there is nothing to be done at the moment. Chu naturally spoke, seeing that Bai Shixian and the others looked gloomy and anxious, he smiled and said, "Let's go back and find a few old-timers to help, and then look for the records in the classics, and see if we can find some clues, I think there is still a lot of hope." ”

Hearing what he said, Bai Shixian and the others breathed a sigh of relief, and Li Qixin said: "If you can't get in, others may not be able to get in, right? The world's best scientists have already set out to gather the world's top science and technology, which should be of some help to study this treasure, right?"

Li Qixin's voice was soft. Speaking in a consultative tone, he saw the amazing skills of Fang Xu and the others. Even government leaders in high positions did not dare to talk to them in a domineering tone.

Li Qixin paused, his eyebrows showed a bit of sadness, and said: "A few people may not know that at the same time as this mysterious treasure emerged, countless disasters occurred all over the earth, such as hurricanes, earth vibrations, volcanic eruptions, and even electromagnetic storms, and the losses were immeasurable. At present, it can be basically determined that this treasure is the cause of frequent natural disasters this year, and the central government attaches great importance to this, and I will not talk about specific things, in short, we must crack this treasure as soon as possible, find out how to control it, and eliminate natural disasters in various places. Get the planet back to normal"

"Well..."Chu naturally looked at Fang Xu, Fang Xu nodded, and Chu naturally said with a smile. "You can try, with modern high-tech means, maybe you can make a difference. ”

"I heard that there is a treasure map in the hands of several people..."Li Qixin smiled and stopped talking, his meaning was self-evident.

Chu naturally didn't dare to make up his mind, and glanced at Fang Xu again, Fang Xu thought for a moment, nodded, and Chu naturally replied: "Our purpose is the same, we are all to unlock this mysterious treasure, so the resources in our hands can naturally be shared." ”

Chu naturally looked back at Fang Xu frequently to ask for his opinion, which clearly fell into the eyes of everyone, and Bai Shixian and the others suddenly realized, "It turns out that this indescribably handsome young man is the real leader of these four people. I heard that Chu naturally has an outstanding and honorable position in the superpower world, but now he is discussing everything with this young man named Fang Xu, so what is his identity?"

...

In the next half a month, Fang Xu did not go to school, but contacted Lao Tao at home, these days, relying on tools such as information society, network media, etc., listening to the changes in Qinhu has spread all over the world, and what is even more exaggerated is that Fang Xu and others flew down from the top of the fortress The situation was actually made into a video (it is said that a scientist's assistant secretly recorded it in the distance, although it is not clear, but it is enough to see a rough idea, and afterwards this person was prosecuted to the International Military Tribunal for leaking military secrets and was sentenced to life imprisonment) spread all over the Internet, because of the mysterious fortress over Qinhu Lake, for a time this video became the world's most clicked news video, The ensuing debate about truth and falsehood is very loud, but there is no doubt that the most dazzling of the four protagonists of this video is naturally Fang Xu, one after another Fang Xu's photos were posted on the Internet, triggering wave after wave of climax, at this time the truth of the video is not very important, many people are shocked that there is such a perfect man in the world, that is, people who are accustomed to seeing handsome men and women in the Chinese and foreign entertainment circles shouting aesthetic fatigue are also attracted by this flawless face, and the media has also begun to make waves, frequent hype, all the true and false news about Fang Xu has been put on the headlines or the Internet of the entertainment version, his identity, his girlfriend, his assets, his relationship with the military and the government, in short, Fang Xu began to be really known to the world at this time, and Yun Ruoruo was also frequently exposed, even Yun Na, Liu Jia, Tianyun, Feng Ye and other women could not be left alone, and Fang Xu's 'implication' was also wiped out by the media. In this way, there is no need for preliminary operation, let alone investing huge amounts of money in speculation, Fang Xu quietly became popular, although I don't know how long it can be popular, but before the world forgets him, Fang Xu does not dare to go out or go to school rashly, there are a bunch of reporters outside the villa, even on the road, there are countless boys and girls who flock to ask for autographs or group photos, and some girls even openly ask for kisses, which makes Fang Xu's head tremble.

...

nighttime

"It's a crazy world. Fang Xu half-lay on the bed and shook his head and sighed, "Who knew that everyone in the world knew that someone who accidentally made trouble was unlucky." ”

"It's all you. It's good now, it's hard for people not to be 'famous'. Yun Ruoruo, who was held in Fang Xu's arms, also joked with a smile.

"But I think the world is forgetful, and when the matter in Qinhu is over, it is estimated that not many people will remember us, and then we will be able to live a normal life. Fang Xu said with confidence. Originally, being famous is a good thing for most people, which is why some people often cast millions or even tens of millions of dollars in the hope of smashing themselves into stars, but it is not a good thing for Fang Xu, who is quiet by nature, to be famous.

"I hope so. Yun Ruoruo said with a smile, Yun Ruoruo is not very reluctant to be famous, although her daily life and work have been troubled a lot. But in most of Fang Xu's scandals, Yun Ruoruo is his girlfriend, and Fang Xu is mentioned now. Many people's first reaction was that he had a beautiful and incomprehensible girlfriend Yun Ruoruo, followed by the scandal between Fang Xu and Liu Jia and other beauties. Fang Xu and Yun Ruoruo seem to have been closely connected by the media, which naturally makes Yun Ruoruo a little happy, but Fang Xu is not very happy about being so famous, and Yun Ruoruo is naturally only looking forward to Fang Xu at all times, looking forward to everything returning to its normal state.

"I hope so. Fang Xu muttered and repeated, but said a little dejectedly, "But I don't think I can go to university." ”

Yun Ruoruo saw his sad face. The pain in his heart was great, and after a few words of comfort in a soft voice, he hurriedly changed the topic and said, "Xu, have you heard any progress in the research of the mysterious fortress in Qinhu?"

Tingqin Lake has become a military important place within a radius of fifty miles, and everyone has moved out, this is for the sake of secrecy, and then there is the fear of accidents during research. Injured civilians, the progress of the research of the fortress is unknown to outsiders, and in the past few days, there are always some high-ranking government officials or army generals who come to look for Fang Xu. Fang Xu had a meeting at the temporary scientific research base of Tingqin Lake at the invitation of the military this morning, so he knew very well about the progress of the mysterious fortress of Tingqin Lake.

Fang Xu shook his head and said with some disappointment: "In the past few days, the fortress has stopped emitting radio wave interference, and the instrument can also come in handy, and the research can be carried out, but the result is disappointing." All the advanced instruments were useless in front of the fortress, its outer walls were immeasurably hard, the world's most advanced laser cutting equipment could not move it, it also rejected all detection rays, and the mysterious entrance denied entry to anyone or object. The only development at the moment is that the patterns on the walls of the fort are presumed to be strangely identical, and when zoomed into, they resemble a synthesis of ancient Chinese and Greek, which linguists around the world are now working on in the hope of finding a hint in. ”

Fang Xu shook his head and sighed repeatedly, obviously not holding out much hope for this, because so far no one dared to assert that the pattern was indeed a language, and even some authority speculated that the pattern was just a mark or some kind of totemic symbol, or just some kind of ornament left behind by the whim of the fortress builder.

At present, with the emergence of this fortress, the frequency of natural disasters in various places has intensified to more than ten times that of the usual, and there are signs of intensification, and there are many places where natural disasters have occurred almost every day in the past half a month, and the earth seems to be really about to be destroyed. Many originally developed countries have also suffered a huge disaster, the entire luxury city has become a ruin, the economy has been seriously blocked, and the people have been killed and injured innumerable, at this time the destruction of the earth is very loud, and under the influence of the doomsday theory, there have been a series of violent incidents such as large-scale smashing and robbery around the world, the global crime rate has risen sharply, the economy has regressed, and the radicals in some countries are clamoring to blow up this fortress to restore peace on the earth。 At this time, the world's top scholars and experts are gathered in CZ, the world's top instruments have also come from all over the world, and even some high-precision equipment that has been strictly banned by developed countries from showing to the world has been shipped to China for use at this moment, the biggest beneficiary of this is naturally China, by assisting in research in the name of the government to arrange many scientists to enter the temporary base, some novel research topics are known to China, some rare high-end equipment is mastered by the Chinese, these days have laid a considerable foundation for the rapid development of China's science and technology in the future.

And the Americans, who have been playing the savior in science fiction blockbusters, are helpless in the real disaster, and in the face of wave after wave of natural disasters, the Americans are dumbfounded, and it can be said that people all over the world are stupid. The air-raid shelters built by governments with huge sums of money began to be moved in, which caused more panic among the people, everyone knows that the air-raid shelters built at a sky-high cost may not be safe in the face of such natural disasters, so far the only safe place on the earth is China, this ancient land, if favored by the gods, is generally alone in the natural disasters that envelop almost every corner of the world. So, a dramatic scene happened, a large number of wealthy foreign businessmen transferred their property to China and applied for entry to live. In the face of a global catastrophe. China's status has never been greater, making it the safest and most livable place in the world. Although its own development has been greatly affected by the turmoil of the global economy, it has quickly adapted and began to develop in a stable and orderly manner.

"Anyway. At the moment, China is quite safe. Yun Ruoruo said with a grin.

"Silly girl. Fang Xu vigorously hugged Yun Ruoruo's delicate body full of infinite charm, shook his head and said, "It's just temporary safety, if the natural disaster continues for a long time and there is no solution, I think there will only be one ending." ”

Looking at Fang Xu's worried expression, Yun Ruoruo's expression turned solemn, and he said in a low voice, "It's really that moment." Those developed countries, such as the United States and Japan, will unite to launch a large-scale invasion war to fight for the safest land in the world in order to avoid destruction. ”

Fang Xu nodded, "In this way, China is bound to counterattack, and in order to survive, both sides will definitely do their best to use all kinds of high-end weapons." It is bound to be ruined, and if one side loses, I am afraid that they will all end up together. At that time, nuclear weapons will probably come in handy, and the earth will really be finished. ”

"Then why don't you think of a way to move this fortress to outer space?" Yun Ruoruo asked, although it was a little whimsical, but if you savor it, it made some sense.

Fang Xu smiled slightly wryly, and said: "Dr. Foton also made such a suggestion, but with all his might, tanks, planes, rockets, and even missiles can't make this fortress move in the slightest, this fortress's technology is too far ahead of us, and in front of it, we are as helpless as primitive people against a spaceship." ”

Fang Xu sighed and looked at the Thousand-Armed Guanyin who was placed on the desk and emitted a soft glow under the light, a glimmer of hope appeared in his eyes, and said, "Master said that if you want to enter the fortress, you must rely on these four treasures. ”

"By the way, your master called once last night, right?"

Fang Xu nodded and said, "Master already knows everything, and he has told me everything he knows." ”

"What is it?" Yun Ruoruo asked impatiently.

It turns out that Le Xiaoyao, the patriarch of Xiaoyaomen, once told a mythical story left by his ancestors to his descendants: in ancient times, the gods and demons were warned, and the demons were imprisoned by the good gods, and the good gods left a weapon to suppress demons in CZ County in China (Le Xiaoyao period, CZ was still a county), every two thousand years, the power of the artifact will fade, and at this time, the artifact must be injected with new power to ensure that the demon will not appear.

Generations of descendants of Xiaoyaomen have been skeptical of this story, after all, people who practice martial arts have always been unconvinced by the theory of ghosts and gods, but the story leaves a deadline for the complete loss of the power of the artifact.

"When?" Yun Ruoruo heard the interest and hurriedly urged.

Fang Xu's face was solemn, and he said, "It's February 26 this year, and there are fifteen days left. ”

Yun Ruoruo was shocked when he heard this: "That means that this mythical story is very credible, if this fortress is not a place where demons are imprisoned, it is a so-called artifact." ”

"I don't know. Legend has it that after the artifact lost its power, the rivers on the earth turned upside down, and the earth was full of ravines, and demons devoured living beings in the present world. This legend is very scary and bizarre, but considering the various circumstances that have happened today, the credibility of this legend is very high, and Master said that he had always been skeptical of this legend before, but out of respect for the ancestor and happy to be happy, he still preferred to believe it, which is why I went to school at CZ, hoping that I could help a little when something really happened. The master said that the five treasures of the thousand-armed Guanyin and the white jade sword were originally the heirlooms of the ancestor Le Xiaoyao, and after he created the Xiaoyao Gate, they became the treasures of our Xiaoyao Gate, and the remaining classics of the Master said that they had a great relationship with the artifact. Later, because of the war and infighting, Xiaoyaomen successively lost the blood jade phoenix and the hidden dragon amber, and then my little uncle inexplicably stole the jasper melon and a few classics of the master, and the master later handed over the white jade sword to Mo Nushi... , ahem. handed it over to Aunt Mo Nu, and handed over the Thousand-Armed Guanyin to Aunt Nangong. ”

"Are both of them your master's confidants? Where have they been these days? Mo asked that she could not contact her master. Yun Ruoruo, who was not very clear about the relationship between the three of them, asked softly.

"A hundred years ago, there seemed to be an agreement between Master and the two aunts, Master didn't say it, and I didn't want to ask, but now the three of them have stayed together, and the two aunts are no longer-for-tat, I think it's time to congratulate Master, hehe. Fang Xu smiled happily, and said after a while. Later, for some reason, the Thousand-Armed Guanyin was snatched by Aunt Mo Nu, and she accidentally found a record of the white jade sword in an ancient book. Say it's the key to a mysterious treasure. Master later wandered the world, one was to find the heir, and the other was to find the whereabouts of the blood jade phoenix, hidden dragon, amber and jasper melon. Master wanted to tell me everything at the right time. But he didn't expect that I would find the exact location of the treasure so quickly, and thanks to the ancient map left by Chasing the Wind and the Moon, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to find this mysterious treasure right now. ”

Fang Xu paused and said: "One of the purposes of Master's disbandment of Xiaoyaomen a hundred years ago was to preserve and reproduce power, and now our Xiaoyaomen has been inherited for a hundred years, and there are already two thousand heirs, Master firmly believes that I am Wuzun, if there is really a so-called demon in the world." He said that if the demon was not afraid of modern technology, perhaps the ancient martial arts were the only force to restrain it, and he hoped that I would lead the disciples to fight back then. ”

"What is the so-called Earth Demon?" Yun Ruoruo asked worriedly, to her, Fang Xu's safety was more important than anything else, she didn't want Fang Xu to be any savior. Even if he will be admired by all the people because of this, Yun Ruoruo only hopes that Fang Xu is safe and sound.

"Maybe it's aliens, or maybe it's a so-called demon. Rather, it refers to the catastrophe that is happening now, because the ancient people were narrow-minded and mistakenly believed that the catastrophe of the earth was caused by demonic manipulation. Whatever it is, I think we're going to have a hard time dealing with it. By the way, at the meeting this morning, I informed the scientists what Master said. ”

"Do they believe it?"

"I didn't believe it, but at first they thought I was making up a story and almost called the security guards to kick me out. Fang Xu said with a smile, you can imagine how these top scientists who studied the truth all day and night almost laughed when they heard this legend, and at that time, words such as 'absurd' and 'joking' gushed out of their mouths, but when Fang Xu raised his hand and used the Great Traction Divine Skill to send the two scientists to a height of more than fifty meters for a week and then sent them back to the ground unharmed, everyone paid attention to what he said, a person with god-like power, there was no need to make up stories for them to hear.

"Everyone speculates that the legendary good gods are the ancient inhabitants of the earth, they have created a splendid civilization, with technology that we can't reach, and this fortress is the best example, they built this fortress to imprison some dangerous prisoners, these prisoners are imprisoned by an advanced refrigeration device, but the energy of the fortress is constantly consumed, and when it is completely consumed, the prisoners will wake up and get out of trouble, and then they may use the technology they have mastered to make some devastating actions, and the good gods collectively migrated out of the earth for some reason to the universe to find a suitable habitat, and later the descendants of the good gods came to the earth when they were doing interstellar travel, Tell this story to the destined people, and leave the method and items to open the artifact, hoping that the earthlings will be able to eliminate the disaster with their own power in thousands of years. Scientists speculate that there must be some kind of energy hub inside the fortress, and after a certain amount of energy is intrained, the fortress will return to normal, all the prisoners will be imprisoned again, and the fortress will sink into the abyss again, and the disaster on Earth may be eliminated. But in this way, we need to inject new energy into it as recorded in the legend, but what to do, no one knows, the treasure map left by Hu Xing back then may be the internal circuit map of the fortress, but we can't even enter the fortress, everything is in vain. A few days ago, Master returned to the Valley of Ten Thousand Immortals with his two aunts, hoping to find some hints from the Master's classics. And he also hopes that those patterns are really a language, and maybe they will really give us some important hints. ”
