The rain is getting heavier and heavier.
Gu Qingshan was sitting next to the corpses, concentrating on cooking a pot of food.
The old goblin was standing by, walking around with a short staff.
"What are you doing walking around?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"I need to slow down..." the old goblin muttered quietly.
"Indeed." Gu Qingshan agreed.
What happened just now contains too much information, and various guesses can be made based on it.
Some possibilities are almost impossible to think about. Just thinking about them makes your brain feel like it's going to explode.
Gu Qingshan temporarily decided to stop and calm down.
- He started to cook a meal.
"How could I be so unlucky to encounter such a dangerous secret?"
The old goblin muttered and walked sadly, waving his short staff from time to time to remove the equipment and clothes from the corpses.
"Aren't you making a fortune?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"Well, getting rich is a basic operation, but what I experienced just now is far beyond my endurance." The old goblin said.
Gu Qingshan took a mouthful of porridge.
——Tasty and mild.
"Don't think about it, get ready for midnight snack." Gu Qingshan said.
The old goblin moved his nose, jumped up and shouted: "Seafood porridge? This is good, but I have more important things - I have to wash away the bad luck on my body!"
"How to wash?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"I'm going to die, Gu Qingshan." The old goblin said seriously.
"Death?" Gu Qingshan said in surprise.
"Yes - this is our goblin's mysterious ritual, to avoid bad luck through death."
The old goblin stood still and muttered something.
"There's nothing wrong with getting rid of bad luck...but you don't have to die." Gu Qingshan advised.
The old goblin was unmoved and suddenly shouted loudly: "The raging flames will burn my body. To get rid of the bad luck, I have to die!"
call--
A blazing flame ignited on it.
Gu Qingshan was startled.
Are you really seeking death?
I saw the flame crackling for a while.
The old goblin was completely burned to ashes, and the flames gradually became dim.
Gu Qingshan looked at the flames, his mind went blank.
In order to avoid the bad luck brought by the Emperor of Heaven, the old goblin died?
Suddenly, the fire flickered and became blazing again.
The flames condensed into a ball the size of a thumb, gradually revealing the body and facial features.
The old goblin appears again!
He walked out of the fire, let out a long breath and said, "Transforming from a wooden body into a fire body, I really felt relieved."
Gu Qingshan: "...Why are you alive again?"
The old goblin said in surprise: "I lost my life, and now I am a fire goblin."
He flew to Gu Qingshan's side, filled a bowl of porridge himself, and drank it in large gulps.
Gu Qingshan calmed down for a while and gradually relaxed.
——After the old goblin made such a fuss, nothing is unacceptable to him now.
After the two of them finished their porridge, they cheered up and continued on their way.
Along the way, although the rain got heavier and heavier, we never encountered anything again.
Judging from this point alone, the old goblin's divination skills are still somewhat credible.
Soon, the morning light began to rise and the rain subsided.
They arrived at the location marked on the map.
This is a valley.
There is a stone tablet standing at the mouth of the valley. There are some vague traces on it, as if something was written on it endless years ago and was later destroyed.
"That's the place ahead." Gu Qingshan said.
He raised his feet and walked towards the valley, only to see a light emitting from the stone tablet, turning into a wall to block him.
A dull voice sounded:
"You are not the chosen one on earth."
"If you want to enter the human world, the original place, please take another entrance."
Gu Qingshan was slightly startled.
What?
I've traveled all night long, and now you tell me I can't come in?
Gu Qingshan reached out and touched the transparent wall.
Solid as a rock.
Can't get through it at all.
"Ignore it." The old goblin said.
It grabbed Gu Qingshan's collar and walked inside, laughing and saying: "Although we are not the chosen ones in the human world, we know many acquaintances from the human world, such as the old one, the young one, and That old person in his family - let’s go, let’s go!”
The two of them just blended into the wall of light and walked into the valley step by step.
A line of small scarlet characters appeared in front of Gu Qingshan:
"The old goblin has activated his witchcraft: cheating."
"You have entered the exclusive entrance for the chosen ones in the human world."
Gu Qingshan: "..."
The old goblin sent him into the valley and said with regret: "Okay, I can only send you here."
"Aren't you going in?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"Scamming is the strongest type of magic, but for some reason, as soon as I use this magic, the time I can stay here is consumed very quickly, so now I can only go back and continue to sleep." The old goblin said .
Gu Qingshan was slightly startled.
It seems that although the Six Paths of Reincarnation is willing to let goblins in -
But the goblin's actions are really worthy of anyone's vigilance, especially at this critical moment when the Six Paths of Reincarnation are fighting for hegemony. The six paths of reincarnation are not willing to let the goblin stay any longer.
The old goblin looked at him and said: "Gu Qingshan, I have burned away all the bad luck behind you. Your enemies will not find you in the next three hours."
"Three hours later, everything was back to normal."
"Whatever you do, remember to take your time."
Gu Qingshan sincerely thanked you and said: "Thank you for your help. I will definitely find a way to release you all from your slumber in the future."
The old goblin chuckled and said, "Then I'll be waiting for your good news."
He put on a dark blue nightgown full of stars, yawned, and gradually disappeared from Gu Qingshan.
Gu Qingshan stopped in place for a moment.
Lines of small scarlet characters quickly appeared in the void:
"You have the luck of the fae."
"No one hostile to you will find you within three hours."
"As the old goblin said, hurry up."
Gu Qingshan took a deep breath.
He quickened his pace and stepped into the valley.
In an instant, the surrounding scene changed.
The whole world goes away.
There is a whole new world under your feet.
Mountains, rivers, sun, moon and stars.
Deep in the dense forest.
Gu Qingshan found himself standing in front of a cave.
Surrounded by apes were naked upper bodies with a circle of leaves tied around their waists.
These ape-men seemed to turn a blind eye to Gu Qingshan's arrival.
They sat in a circle and kowtowed respectfully towards the entrance of the cave.
soon.
A figure came out of the cave entrance.
——That is an old ape-man.
Unlike other apes, his eyes are full of wisdom and calmness.
The old ape-man saw Gu Qingshan at a glance.
He waved to Gu Qingshan, then turned and walked back to the cave.
Gu Qingshan was completely confused about the situation, but since the other party signaled him to follow, in order to know the current situation, he had no choice but to follow.
Not long after entering the cave, Gu Qingshan saw the ape-man.
The ape-man lit a fire and sat comfortably on the rock, squinting at Gu Qingshan.
"I don't know where you come from, but you obviously come from outside." The old ape-man said.
"Yes, I made a special trip to come here, but I don't know where this place is." Gu Qingshan said.
"This is the starting point of the human world." said the old ape-man.
"Starting point?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"Yes, I am the one responsible for making explanations - for endless years, I have been here, trapped here, making explanations for everyone who enters." The old ape said.
Gu Qingshan probed: "Is this your duty?"
"Yes, this is my job. Because of the mistakes I made in the past, I was punished to stay in this primitive era of ignorance, in the body of an ancient ape."
The old ape-man showed a self-deprecating smile.
"I was obviously born in an era after civilization developed to a very advanced stage. I possess unparalleled wisdom and knowledge, but due to my fault, I was imprisoned in the ancient times when all living beings were ignorant and backward."
He stretched out his long arms covered with black hair that were very different from human beings, looked at them carefully, and continued: "No living beings around you can understand you. All your knowledge and spirit are incompatible with the entire era. You have fallen into Eternal loneliness—what could be more painful than that?”
Gu Qingshan said: "I haven't asked for advice yet, are you——"
The old ape-man sighed and said: "Young man, in fact, in every era, you can see unfortunate people like me."
"Usually in these backward and ancient times, people have a special word for people like me."
"--prophet."
