Pei Mengqing and the others told Lu Mengcheng the truth about Nightmare Town, and told him that the matter had been completely resolved. No monsters would appear again at night, and it would be easy to leave here.
After that, they left here, leaving behind people who were happy to have regained their freedom, sad because of the death of their relatives, and moved by the righteousness and magical means of Pei Mengqing and others.
Pei Mengqing didn't care about the mood of the people behind her, nor whether it would be called Nightmare Town, Zangfeng Town, or another name.
He has been delayed here for two days and must complete the task as soon as possible. He takes Juju and Xiaori to the east of Pingchun County to swallow the two or three tons of Kunlun Immortal Copper.
"What are your plans next? Are you planning to go directly to Tianhe County?"
Wang Hongren and Li Yuanzhong looked at each other:
"Exactly, but we remember that Pei Shaoxia seems to be going to Pingchun County for business?"
"Well, there is an urgent matter that needs to be handled in Pingchun County. It will be resolved soon."
"In this case, the two of us won't wait for Pei Shaoxia. Let's go to Tianhe County first to familiarize ourselves with the situation. We will meet again after Pei Shaoxia returns."
Wang Hongren and Li Yuanzhong handed over to Pei Mengqing, and Pei Mengqing returned the favor.
In this way, the three people and the two cats parted ways.
After parting ways with Sword Town Hebei Li Yuanzhong and Gun King Hong Ren, Pei Mengqing took Juju and Xiaori all the way to the east of Pingchun County, without encountering any accidents along the way.
"Lao Pei, look at that mountain col over there, is it there?" Juju stretched out his paw and pointed into the distance.
Pei Mengqing rose into the sky and looked far away, seeing a mountain col.
Between the two mountains, this depression happens to be a hidden place.
There are thick trees and lush grass here. There are many birds and beasts in the forest, and there are also many dangers. It is not suitable for ordinary people to come here, otherwise they will suffer disaster if they encounter some poisonous snakes or tigers.
Pei Mengqing, on the other hand, could fly in the air for a short period of time and could unload his strength on the top of branches, so he flew into the mountain col in a few clicks.
He, Xiaori, and Juju searched the surroundings and finally found a cave.
There is a stone slab at the entrance of the cave, and anyone who wants to enter without solving the puzzle will be stopped by a strange force.
Pei Mengqing stepped forward to check and found that it was a very simple nine grids, divided into three rows and three columns. She was required to fill in the nine numbers so that the sum of each row, column or diagonal would be the same.
Four is the shoulder, six and eight are the feet. Nine on the top and one on the right, seven on the left and three on the right, and five in the center.
This is what Pei Mengqing knew when he was a child.
However, not many people may be able to easily solve it here.
If you want to try randomly first, it will be dangerous. If you fail three times, you will be counterattacked by the formation.
Pei Mengqing easily solved the puzzle and walked into the cave with two big oranges.
The cave is pitch black, but the purifying golden light of Tachibana and Xiaori can dispel the darkness and fulfill the purpose of a cat-shaped self-propelled flashlight...
There were many bats in the cave. As soon as they entered the cave, countless bats flew out screaming.
Fortunately, Pei Mengqing and the others were prepared and were not startled.
The cave led nowhere and was extremely deep. They walked for several minutes but still didn't see the end.
It wasn't until a quarter of an hour later that Pei Mengqing and the others finally saw the three-way intersection.
Pei Mengqing breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"Miss Canglan said, choose the left for the first ten forks, choose the right for the middle ten forks, and choose the middle for the last ten forks to reach the place where she stores Kunlun Immortal Copper."
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go quickly~"
Juju was very excited. The opportunity to improve his strength was right in front of him. He immediately jumped off Pei Mengqing's shoulders and ran towards the left fork with Xiaori.
Pei Mengqing followed the two cats closely, fearing that they would be lost. She also took note of the number to avoid taking the wrong turn.
In this way, after passing thirty forks along the way, Pei Mengqing and the others finally found an artificially expanded stone chamber.
The space in this stone chamber is not too big, but it is enough to put down the Kunlun Immortal Copper.
After all, Kunlun Immortal Copper belongs to all, and its density is quite high. It weighs two or three tons, which is about the size of one meter square. It is spread out and there are not many pieces on the ground.
"Then let's start eating?" Juju asked.
Pei Mengqing knew what Juju was asking.
"Okay, I'll protect you, just devour and digest it."
However, Pei Mengqing, Juju, and Xiaori all knew that no outsiders would be able to find them here.
The first is the stone puzzle outside, and the second is the thirty forks in the road. Each fork in the road has three forks. If you want to choose them all, the probability is one to the power of three. I'm afraid you will be lucky even if you change. Even if you come, you may not be able to find them.
And since this place is underground, there is no need to worry about someone blasting away the mountain.
Speaking of which, it is actually a very useful safe house.
"Okay, Lao Pei, I won't say any more polite words. I'll protect you when we upgrade! The three of us will walk sideways!"
Juju was so arrogant that he didn't say much, and he and Xiaori started to eat the Kunlun Immortal Copper on the ground.
Kunlun Immortal Copper is different from the yellow-red or turquoise color of regular copper. Instead, it glows green and white, with a green color and the nobility of Kunlun snow. It is not ugly when mixed together, but makes people feel happy when they see it.
Juju and Xiaori don't care whether Kunlun Immortal Copper is good-looking or not, they just want to eat it, and that's it.
Pei Mengqing had nothing to do, so she carefully observed the stone room.
As he had thought before, this was actually a place that Cang Lan discovered by accident shortly after he first traveled to this world. He finally designed a route and opened a stone chamber here.
There are stone holes and gaps in the stone chamber, which connect the underground river to the outside world. Although I don't know where it leads, at least I don't have to worry about the lack of air circulation, and people will suffocate here.
At that time, Canglan could be said to be like the male protagonist in a fantasy novel. She was "getting into trouble" everywhere and often encountered provocative people. Basically, she would hide after defeating her opponents or killing the scum in the town. Come here and avoid being chased.
This is her safe house, so she puts a lot of daily necessities here, as well as wooden sculptures carved here when she was bored while hiding.
The stone wall was cut open and carved to look like a museum shelf, with many places to put things.
There are still a lot of things in there now.
There was a book among them with a lot of dust on it.
Pei Mengqing swept away the dust and looked at the name. It was called "Jiang Hu Meng Hua Lu" and was written in simplified Chinese characters.
When I opened it, it seemed to be a martial arts novel. It told a fantasy story about a girl who traveled through time and was reborn in a different world, became a hero, and performed heroic acts of justice everywhere.
Although the content is not complicated and the writing style is not brilliant, and some words are marked in pinyin as if they couldn't remember how to write them for a while, one can still see how happy Cang Lan was when writing this story.
The character's name is Pei Canglan, which seems to be the same pronunciation of Canglan. As for the surname, it is probably Canglan's real surname.
In this way, Pei Mengqing and Pei Mengqing still have the same surname.
Pei Mengqing did not rush to finish reading, but looked at the figures in the holes.
Those were all carved out of wood by Canglan. It can be seen that with the blessing of cultivation, the carvings were very careful.
There are a series of anime characters such as Pikachu, Doraemon, Happy Star Cat, Magical Girl, etc., as well as some mecha Gundams, and a heroine statue carved after herself.
The reason why Pei Mengqing knew it was a female hero statue was because Canglan specially carved the words "heroine statue" on the base...
It seems that she really misses the earth and the things on the earth, but she has no way to go back and she has been feeling depressed.
Pei Mengqing had a deep empathy with her. He gently picked up a wooden sculpture and sighed in his heart when he saw Pikachu jumping up and releasing a hundred thousand volts.
A hometown that I can't go back to. Although I always complained about the bad here and there, after coming to a different world, I realized that the good and the bad are all my concerns.
It is all the good and bad, all the memories put together, the reason why they miss the earth together at this time.
He leaned against the wall and asked about the practice system:
"Cultivation system, do we really have a chance to go back? Leave here and return to Earth."
This time, the practice system did not give any ambiguous answers, but gave clear and concise answers.
【able. 】
"Oh? Are you so sure?" Pei Mengqing asked.
[As long as the host cultivates seriously, practices hard, and solves the current world crisis, he can return to Earth. 】
"Then what realm do I need to reach? I'm afraid the Shenxuan realm is not enough?" Pei Mengqing asked.
[Not enough. As for what realm is above the Shenxuan Realm, the host will probably understand it after he reaches the Shenxuan Realm. 】
"To understand your state of mind, you need to understand how you want to go in the future and your ultimate goal. I once thought I would follow the path of swordsmanship and become a swordsman, but it seems that it is not reliable now."
[Swordsmanship may be unreliable, but it does not prevent the host from becoming a swordsman. 】
"Oh? In other words, if I take the path of weapons, or the path of being sharp and razor-sharp, it's pretty much the same?"
【Yes. 】
"Then I understand. I probably guessed it," Mingxin asked. "Enlightenment and enlightenment are a progressive process. The ultimate goal is to implement one's own way from beginning to end. From this point of view, it seems that the same as the warlock." The principles are quite similar in the end.”
[Actually, all roads lead to the same goal, but the methods are different and the energy used is different, so there are different systems. The leading ascetic system is the oldest, most reasonable and most suitable road for the host. 】
"After practicing metaphysics, it becomes Tao, right? Fulfill your own Tao and become the only strongest person in this Tao. Although I don't know exactly what it will take, I probably understand what kind of path I want to take."
[It’s good that the host understands this. 】
"Then, can the Tao realm above the Shenxuan realm allow me to return to Earth?"
【able. 】
"Can you defeat the evil gods?"
[Perhaps, but not entirely sure. 】
"Well, it seems that just myself is not enough. I have to at least train a few more masters at my level, alas."
[Hasn’t the host already gained many trustworthy partners? 】
"That's right. Anyway, let's grow up together. I hope they can encounter more good things in the Orange Bureau and slowly grow above the star level. Then it will be easier to travel around the world."
[The world is very big. In addition to Middle-earth, there are also two continents: the West and the Extreme West. 】
"Alas, with my current strength, it would be difficult for me to get out of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
[The host does not need to underestimate himself. From the overall number of warlocks in the Zhou Dynasty, the host has exceeded 80% of the warlocks. 】
"Okay, but why did you talk so much today and encourage me?"
[This system is designed to allow the host to continuously cultivate and become stronger with a healthy mentality, and to feel the host's low mood, so it is natural to comfort and encourage it. 】
"Then, can you say more nice things?" Pei Mengqing asked.
[The host is already in a healthy mood and does not need any further encouragement. 】
"All right……"
Pei Mengqing didn't expect too much, but he didn't know how long Xiaori and Juju would have to eat. He was a little bored, so he wanted to find someone alive to chat with.
After the cultivation system comforted him, he stopped talking, and he simply read the novel written by Qi Canglan.
The first thing is about Canglan traveling to a new world, and then discovering that there is still inner power in the world, so she joins the sect and starts to learn cultivation.
But she also had cheats. She obtained a special skill that was used to practice Taoism instead of practicing magic. She became a monk in the Qi Realm.
The content is similar to many fantasy novels. The main content is the story of how she went from being an outer sect disciple to an inner sect disciple, and then became a direct disciple of an elder. She was framed and killed by a fellow sect member, and was finally kicked out of the school and became a traitor.
If Cang Lan wrote it based on his own personal experience, then I am afraid that the incident of being framed and killing a fellow sect member is also true.
I don’t know how she came here at that time, and how she cultivated to the Shenxuan realm step by step.
Later, it was written that after Canglan left the sect, she avoided pursuit and obtained a piece of Kunlun Immortal Copper at the bottom of a river.
She wrote like a diary: Kunlun Immortal Copper is extremely rare and is one of the best materials for refining weapons. If you accumulate more in the future, if you can find a skilled craftsman, you might be able to forge a powerful weapon. But what weapons do I need? sword? knife? gun? I don’t know what weapons I’m good at, or should I save more and build a full-body armor to improve my defense?
From the contents of the diary, it is enough to see how confused she was at that time.
Later, because she was not careful enough when traveling in the world, Pei Canglan was accidentally spotted with the Kunlun Immortal Copper, revealing the fact that she was carrying valuable materials. She suffered a lot of covetation and pursuit, and experienced even more things.
At this time, Pei Canglan has become a monk who has reached the perfect state of Qi. She needs to find someone reliable to help her take care of her soul.
It was also at this time that Pei Canglan met a heroine named Ruo Shui. The two hit it off, and Ruo Shui was also a monk based on his cultivation skills.
Ruoshui helped Pei Canglan become a monk in the soul-nourishing realm and shared the techniques of the soul-nourishing realm.
After that, the two became as close as sisters, supporting each other, and Canglan's strength gradually became stronger, until finally, within the confines of Tianhe County, Ruoshui sacrificed himself to save the people of Liang County.
Pei Mengqing knew everything about what happened next.
