Chapter 35: The Stolen Old Rune
Ruby said with a smile: "Many planets have ancient teleportation arrays, but it is useless to repair them, how many years have they been abandoned here, how can they still exist on the other side, and the teleportation arrays that are still useful will not be easily abandoned, those that have been abandoned are all useless, if you want to leave here, you can't count on these old antiques." ”
Old McMeran, he didn't want to tell Ruby about the ancient teleportation array in the underground cave just yet, it was a secret that only he knew.
He could also guess that even if he gathered the ethereal spirit stones, the teleportation array would not be able to be used, because there would definitely be no reaction on the other side, otherwise, the mysterious machine that had become a mummy would be changed to a single teleportation array, how could there be no response, and it would make him work hard to consume his longevity, but in the end, he would end up hateful.
Ruby muttered: "I'll open a cave to live in for the time being, here is a military restricted area on one side, barren mountains and mountains on the other, the terrain is very safe, no one will come to disturb me, and when I basically fuse this body, I will go out to find the brain clan earth base." ”
Lao Mai said: "I remember I heard you say, this is the second time you have taken the house, although the cultivation of the Yuan Infant can go out of the body to take the house, it is more than the weak Yuan Shen who escaped in the foundation building period and the Jindan period can only take away a few more chances, but it is also weaker and weaker every time, and even the Yuan Infant will collapse." ”
It turned out that Ruby was already a primordial infancy cultivator, and it was not the soul that settled in the liquid memory metal man's body but his primordial infant body, which was no wonder he had so many miracles before, which an ordinary alien could not do.
Under the impact of the nuclear energy of the neutron bomb, all the aliens died from soul to body, only Ruby's primordial infant survived, and by chance found a suitable object to take away, instead of an ordinary soul parasite, as we all know, the soul of the parasitor cannot control the parasitic body, and it was Ruby who has been fooling others before.
I saw Ruby sigh and said: "Yes, I am already the second time to take the house, the Yuan Infant is very weak, and I can no longer afford the third time to take the Baby, so it is possible to break up the Yuan Baby, but fortunately, this time the body is very peculiar, I think it is better than the pure metal human body that was taken away last time, the pure liquid memory metal human body, although it is not as good as the original body, if it is fused well, it is not bad to use, but it takes more time to refine." ”
Lao Mai was a little vigilant and said: "You are cultivating here, you won't suck all the golden aura of this plateau continent dry, you are a Yuan Infant Stage cultivator, the domestic Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi and cultivation resources are already very scarce, how can you cultivate after you finish all others." ”
In the early stage, Lao Mai had agreed with the major cultivation sects and families in the mainland that cultivators above the foundation building period would go abroad to gild, and they were not allowed to absorb the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi in the country for cultivation, and the remaining Five Elements Spiritual Qi would be reserved for low-level disciples who practiced Qi below the foundation building period, so as to maintain the extremely limited foundation of the mainland cultivators.
Ruby laughed and said: "Don't worry, I'm just fusing my body, not cultivating, I still have some of my own cultivation resources, I won't absorb the local spiritual energy resources, and even the discrete heaven and earth vitality will not be affected, besides, this golden spiritual energy is not enough for me to stuff my teeth." ”
Lao Mai nodded when he heard this: "In this way, I can rest assured, the current situation in the country is abnormally lacking in the five elements aura, and I don't know that firewood, rice, oil, and salt are expensive, so I can save a little bit." ”
Although Lao Mai in the middle stage of Jindan is not the only Jindan stage cultivator in the mainland cultivation realm, he is already a high-end cultivator at the level of a bull's ear, and he has to consider the whole group from time to time when he speaks and acts, because in this acre and three points of land, it is already a world where only he can stand alone.
Speaking of this, Lao Mai felt that he could almost say goodbye, so he proposed to go back, because the sky was about to dawn, and there would be something to do during the day the next day.
Ruby stood up to send off Lao Mai, and said: "I will seal the forbidden retreat and merge the body here, anyway, I am close to you, I can come and go often if I have something, and I can leave the customs at any time." ”
Lao Mai said with a dry smile: "I came here just for a mission, and now that the task is completed, I will leave the local area soon, and my sect is a little far from here." ”
"It's okay," Ruby said indifferently, "then I'll finish the fusion and refining and then get out of the customs, don't say you're still in your country, even if it's across the ocean, it's a snap of a finger for me, I'll go to you again if there's something, we have feelings for each other, and we won't miss any opportunities." ”
Lao Mai nodded, and after leaving the location of his sect and the location mark of the transmission sound, he went out and returned to his room in the guest house of the No. 5 underground military base.
As for how to find the Earth Base of the Brain Clan after the rupee fusion body is completed, it is no longer a matter for him to manage.
In view of the fact that the task of transferring Shenhua members to participate in towing alien flying saucers has been successfully completed, and the internal and external security protection of the base behind it is not a matter for the abnormal troops, it is natural for the underground military base in Shishan District to try to strengthen it.
Therefore, in the assembly on the afternoon of the next day, the head of Shenhua 104 announced on behalf of the troops that the mission was completed and he could return with honor, and at the same time announced the return of a certain special forces unit, and it was said that there was a commendation meeting held secretly in the capital afterwards, and it was necessary to give notice before the meeting.
For the mobile team that comes and goes when they are called, it is also a process of disbanding on the spot, returning to their own homes, and finding their own mothers.
After the team was assembled this time, the eight King Kongs signed a confidential monitoring agreement with the troops according to the work process, and then hugged each other one by one and said goodbye.
In the simple farewell process, Xiao Zhong was very enthusiastic about him, but Yan Ying, who was very familiar with him, was much more polite.
However, there was one person who caught his attention, and that was Captain Liu of the Mobile Clan, this pseudo-ability, who was actually a Partial Water Attribute Qi Cultivation Eighth Rank cultivator, seemed to be full of awe with a smile on his face when he said goodbye to Lao Mai.
It's not the kind of admiration for people with superior means, but it's like the awe of low-level cultivators for high-level cultivators.
This made Lao Mai feel a little strange, his Jindan stage cultivator's aura had already converged very well through the secret method found from the Gongfa Tree, and it was impossible for a cultivator who was lower than himself to see his cultivation.
I basically didn't have a match with him during this mission, so what's going on with this natural awe?
How could a person who was a water-biased cultivator, who was already too old and had no future to do, and could only go to the group of supernatural beings to mingle around, could have this kind of vision to identify the realm of cultivation.
However, Lao Mai only thought about it for a while, and he didn't care about it, so he didn't take it to heart, and rested for one night, and the next day he left the underground military base in Shishan District and returned to his hometown city in the south by taking the flying tools provided by the logistics department of the Shenhua Army.
This time he participated in the operation of the Shenhua troops, which lasted nearly half a year, and when Lao Mai returned to the sect, it was already the eve of the Spring Festival in 2006.
In the action, he was relaxed and comfortable, but his mood was not very cool, and when he encountered the festival, he took the opportunity to rest for a while, and accompanied Yu Mu's family to have a happy Spring Festival.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Lao Mai made an appointment with Aunt Liu, who had retired from a state-owned enterprise, to visit the old minister, who was also retired at home, to give him a good old age.
The old minister opened the door and saw that it was still these two old acquaintances, and immediately laughed and said: "It's you two who come to worship the old age, we are all retired old guys, it's not appropriate to worship the early years, and it's only right to worship the old age, and I am the only one at home, and the wife and children are all gone to relatives, come and come, it's cold outside, come and sit in the house to warm up." ”
Lao Mai and the two of them entered the door to change their shoes, first greeted each other politely for a while, and said some nonsense to each other to congratulate the New Year, and then, they sat side by side on the mahogany sofa with cotton cushions at the bottom of the hall where the old minister lived, drank tea and melon seeds at will, ate snacks and sweets that would only have been available during the Spring Festival, and chatted about the recent personnel changes in the city.
While chatting, the old minister suddenly remembered something, turned back into the bedroom, took out an old yellowed A4 copy paper, and handed it to Lao Maidao: "Wheat, look at it, can you recognize what kind of ghost paintings are here?" I have been estimating, it looks like a Taoist thing, you said that there are friends with outsiders, and it seems that there is no lack of research on Taoist culture. ”
When Lao Mai took the old copy paper and looked at it, it was a paper copy that looked like runes, with a slightly black background, and it was full of dense and crooked ancient runes, which he couldn't read.
Because the content of the runes cannot be read directly, cultivators above the foundation stage must ingest the sea of consciousness with their divine consciousness in order to reveal their meanings, and they must also directly write the original of the runes.
The current piece of paper is just a copy, even if he is already in the middle of Jindan, he can't take it into his own sea of consciousness to identify it.
"I don't recognize what it means here," Lao Mai had to shake his head to show that he didn't understand.
The old minister smiled and said: "Don't you have a friend from outside, you can give him this copy to see, maybe the cultivator can understand it, you see, I have thought about this for a long time, and I didn't remember to tell you until now, it's really a bit old and confused." ”
Lao Mai smiled bitterly in his heart, the so-called friend outside the square was originally a pretext made in the name of Mu Qingzi, and now Mu Qingzi has already turned into a fairy and returned to the sky, where else can he go to find this friend outside the party, and it is not easy to excuse himself at the moment, so he folded this copy paper in half and put it in his pocket.
The old minister looked at Lao Mai folding and putting away the copy paper, so he sighed and said: "It's a pity that this is just a copy, if only the original was still there, but it's a pity that the family was robbed not long ago, and the ancestral original was stolen." ”
"And the original?" Lao Mai was stunned when he heard this, the old minister didn't say it earlier, he took the copy, and saw that it was very old paper, thinking that there was only a copy, and the content of this copy seemed to be something used in the old days of the Middle Earth Cultivation Realm, maybe it could be a little interesting.
