Chapter 776: Time capsule, a letter left by my brother is found? !
"It's just that because of the destruction of the world, cultivation has also declined rapidly, and it has experienced a rapid end of the law, and the inheritance of cultivation has almost been cut off."
"When we first came here thirty years ago, the people of the whole world, in order to fight against the evil disaster of time, embarked on a relatively strange and unconventional way of integrating the soul into the body."
"Although this road is not very good, it is also somewhat good, so we sorted out the world and studied it at the same time."
"Who would have known that thirty years later, it would become what it is now."
"······"
The speed was very fast while the few people were chatting.
However, the destination seemed to be quite far from the canyon. When everyone crossed an entire continent, crossed a sea area, and came to another continent, Wang Zijia finally understood why it was called a broken world.
In the sky, countless huge cracks like abysses were visible everywhere.
The continent below was also ravaged by various storms, and from time to time, you could see the extremely huge ground crack canyon.
The magical thing is that under such circumstances, this continent is not desolate.
On the contrary, it was like a wound full of maggots, with all kinds of strange mutant plants growing, and there were all kinds of monsters mixed in it.
Among them, there were even void creatures that had the ability to survive in the void because they had been ravaged by the void energy for a long time.
Here, to some extent, it was already bordering the chaotic void outside.
The monsters, who had completely lost their reason, were not afraid of Wang Zijia and his party at all. Once they sensed their existence, they rushed towards them frantically, trying to devour them.
Fortunately, after the long-term cleaning by the seven people, there were no powerful void monsters, so they were easily dealt with by Zhang Junyong and others along the way.
As Wang Zijia walked forward, his face gradually became solemn, and he said: "This area is gradually collapsing and merging into the void?"
Zhang Junyong nodded and said: "The entire world should have collapsed only one-tenth, but it also completely broke the balance of the world."
"Unable to repair itself, it was gradually eroded by the void. After countless years, only the continent we came from is still intact. It is an irreversible situation. The only way is to migrate people away."
"That's why we are so popular and almost worship us as saints."
"Because their world is almost over. Their cultivation system has not produced a strong person who can cross the void, so they regard us as the last savior."
In other words, the world was severely damaged at the beginning, and it has been festering for these years. Now it is on the verge of collapse.
At this time, Zhang Junyong and others suddenly slowed down their movements, as if they had reached their destination!
Wang Zijia looked in the direction and saw a group of white jade-like ruined buildings among the strange plants scattered all over the broken land with cracks all over the abyss below.
The overall style looks similar to the Daoting Xiandian in the core area of Taiqing, but it is not so fairy-like. However, it can still be seen at a glance that it is the same style element.
The building complex is very large. Zhang Junyong led Wang Zijia and others to descend a little and fly at a height of one or two feet above the ruins.
The overall look is not like an ancient city or a sect, but rather like the clan land of an ancient cultivation family.
The closer you get to the center, you can see large white jade squares from time to time. On the square, there was originally a huge white jade sculpture, but now it is all broken, and no sculpture is still intact.
It seems that this place once had some strange beliefs, or it was simply the territory of the Fourth Epoch, when the gods were not banned?
······
In the ruins, on the jade, some broken characters can be vaguely seen.
The traces left in most places are all written in the current characters of Shenhong, but some places similar to sacrifices can clearly see Chinese.
It is precisely because of this that Zhang Junyong and his party guessed that this was a relic from the Quaternary period.
······
When Wang Zijia and his party came to the core area, they finally stopped at a place similar to the family ancestral hall.
This is a very large courtyard, a jade tile courtyard, and a one-story high building.
The gate is quite magnificent, with two jade dragons entwined like living creatures. The ancestral hall decorated in this way made Wang Zijia a little stunned.
Dragons are not common in ancestral hall decorations.
Entering the gate is a large courtyard, or square.
In the center of the square, there is also a huge broken sculpture, now only two jade feet are left standing, and the upper half is missing.
Judging from the remaining traces, there should have been a lot of clansmen here, who often worshipped their ancestors here.
Obviously, this is the ancestral hall of this family!
At the bottom of the square is a rather magnificent ancestral hall building.
Probably out of respect and awe, everyone landed on the square in the yard and walked towards the inside of the ancestral hall, instead of just flying directly in.
"What is 'Chang's Ancestral Hall'... Hmm? Zhang's Ancestral Hall?" Wang Zijia looked up at the plaque at the entrance of the ancestral hall and read it out.
Zhang Junyong and his party, who had led Wang Zijia and the others into the ancestral hall, were all stunned.
"What did you say, Daoyou Wang?" Then, someone suddenly turned around and asked.
Wang Zijia pointed to the missing plaque on the ancestral hall and said, "If I'm not mistaken, it should have been written as Zhang's Ancestral Hall."
"Really?" Zhang Junyong said in surprise.
It wasn't because his last name was Zhang, in fact, all seven of them showed a surprised expression. Even Qin Xianyu looked at the plaque in surprise.
Nothing else, because the surname Zhang, in the third and fourth eras, in the era when the Dao Court always suppressed the heavens, represented too many things!
Any place related to the high-level of the Dao Court must be associated with the people with the surname ‘Zhang’.
But on the other hand, the surname Zhang is not necessarily a high-level person.
Even so, if this place is really the territory of the Zhang family, plus the various traces before...
When several people thought of this, they couldn't help but look forward to the harvest of the mysterious land.
Wang Zijia shrugged and did not answer Zhang Junyong's subconscious words.
He walked into the ancestral hall, and the entrance was the ancestral hall. But it looked dilapidated and deserted, with all the white jade decorations and desks, all broken and scattered on the ground.
Not a single complete jade tablet could be seen.
Zhang Junyong led everyone to the back of the ancestral hall, a place similar to a forbidden area.
The prohibition here actually still has some broken runes in operation, and a huge tattered spherical light curtain covers the entire backyard.
Through the broken light shield, it can be vaguely seen that there seems to be a huge building in the backyard.
Passing through the broken and hole-filled energy barrier, Wang Zijia found that it was not a backyard at all, but a palace.
On a white jade square of medium size, a huge triangular building with a strange shape stood.
The roof of the building was unusually tall. Although the main room below was also large, it was very strange compared to the top.
Wang Zijia always felt that something was strange, but he didn't know what was strange for a while.
Until Zhang Junyong led them to a square in front of the building, opened an entrance to the underground and walked into the underground.
It was actually hollow below, with a suspended jade staircase, as if standing in the void, circling a jade building downward.
This building was the lower part of the triangular building.
Only then did Wang Zijia understand what was strange.
This was not a palace at all, it was an unusually tall nine-story white jade pagoda!
It's just that the pagoda should have nine floors, but only the top floor and the spire are exposed on the jade square, so it looks so weird from the square.
······
While thinking, everyone has come to the bottom through the suspended jade stairs.
The huge underground space should have been a hemispherical jade underground space.
A nine-story giant tower stands like a pillar in the center of the hemispherical space. Because the ninth floor and the spire are exposed, the entire pagoda building looks like a strange jade pillar building, supporting the entire dome.
In addition, the entire hemispherical space has only a circle of jade stairs suspended in the void, winding down around it.
The jade sky on the dome should be the part that makes up the jade square above.
I don't know if it's too transparent or the jade is originally very thin, so that the light scattered on the square penetrates through the jade and penetrates weakly, making the whole space a little hazy.
Under the dome is a huge square, which is covered with runes and still gleams with rich light.
And there is a faint spiritual light flowing around the pagoda, which is not an ordinary thing at first glance.
No wonder several people attach so much importance to it.
This is obviously the important treasure house of the Zhang family!
Zhang Junyong and others led Wang Zijia and others to the center of the dome space, in front of the gate at the bottom of the pagoda, and said: "This is it!"
The gate is a bit strange, or it is not appropriate to describe it as a gate.
Because the pagoda has no door at all, there is only a rectangular area with more than 20 square pieces missing, which should have been pasted on it.
There are also pieces of jade squares piled up in one corner, which seem to be pasted on.
Apart from this, there is no other decoration, not even a plaque.
Wang Zijia raised his hand and waved, and the pile of jade pieces next to him flew up, and there were Chinese characters on the square jade pieces.
‘Wei’, ‘Tian’, ‘Ji’, ‘Ping’…
Obviously, these square jade pieces are the keys to open the pagoda, and they need to be pressed in the correct order.
What surprised Wang Zijia was that this was actually simplified Chinese characters!
Over the years, he has seen a lot of Chinese characters in the ruins and various databases. But most of them are small seal characters, and occasionally you can see some traditional Chinese characters!
And this is the first time he has seen simplified Chinese characters!
This familiar thing made Wang Zijia’s pupils dilate slightly, and the whole person was a little absent-minded.
"This thing should be the key to open the door. If we are not mistaken, it should be an ancient formula or something. There are a total of twenty-two pieces."
"But we have no knowledge of ancient knowledge, and we only have nine chances to try. We have tried six times. Without knowing what will happen if we fail, we dare not experiment again."
"I asked Uncle Li Xunbo to come before. After Uncle Li Xunbo confirmed, there is almost no hope of forcing it to open, so we can only crack it."
"But the ancient Taoist text was deliberately erased in the Third Age. Until now, there are not many people who can barely master it. Moreover, this is obviously a variant of the Taoist text, not the popular one, so I have to ask you for help."
While Zhang Junyong was explaining, Wang Zijia had already seized all twenty-two jade pieces and floated them in the air.
On each jade piece, there is a Chinese character, a simplified Chinese character!
This made Wang Zijia fascinated for a while!
Qin Xianyu and the others also looked at the text, frowned subconsciously, and said: "This text... seems to be quite different from the traditional text?"
"Indeed, we tried to send a message and asked many of your ancient monks. Most of them said it was a variant of the text. It needs to be studied on the spot. So after we returned to the sect, we found you."
Qin Xianyu and Zhang Junyong's words brought Wang Zijia back to his senses.
With a slight wave of his hand, the jade piece moved rapidly. Among the twenty-two words, several were repeated.
'Wei' x4, 'Li' x2.
Seeing this, Wang Zijia was stunned again!
No, once these conditions came out, Wang Zijia didn't need to use his mind to calculate, arrange and combine, and knew what was written on it, because it was too famous!
Wang Zijia subconsciously moved the jade piece.
It formed a sentence: Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, inherit the unique knowledge of the past saints, and open peace for the world.
As a modern person, don't be too familiar with the four sentences of Hengqu!
Besides, they are in simplified Chinese!
Before Zhang Junyong and Qin Xianyu finished their conversation, Wang Zijia suddenly moved the jade pieces casually, and then embedded them one by one into the rectangular door frame grid.
"Don't, once you press one, you must press all 22 pieces in the next 30 breaths, otherwise it will fail..." Zhang Junyong subconsciously wanted to stop it.
"Click, click..."
However, what greeted Zhang Junyong was the rapid embedding of jade pieces.
Wang Zijia didn't hesitate at all, and embedded them almost without distinction.
The next moment, in the astonished eyes of everyone.
All 22 jade pieces were embedded, and then a dazzling aura burst out.
At this moment, the text changed.
[Please drop blood to verify! ]
'Hmm? In addition to the password lock, there is also a blood lock? ’
Wang Zijia frowned and stretched out his hand tentatively. A drop of blood flew out from Wang Zijia’s fingertips and merged into the words.
In an instant, it seemed as if the last puzzle piece was assembled.
Wang Zijia, who was just experimenting, saw the jade piece slowly melt and disappear, and a vortex light gate appeared in its original position.
The passage was opened just like that!
“This...” Zhang Junyong and the others were stunned in place. After a while, they said, “Fellow Daoist Wang, how did you do it?”
You know, this text is originally a variant school, and this is a spell of 22 words, and it seems that there is a second layer of bloodline restrictions at the back.
And Wang Zijia just took a look and got it out.
Wang Zijia ignored them. For some reason, he suddenly had a little expectation for this place.
An expectation of meeting old friends in his hometown after wandering in a foreign land for many years.
“Let’s go, let’s go in and take a look!” Wang Zijia frowned, and as he spoke, he had already taken the lead and walked in.
Seeing this, Zhang Junyong and his companions also stepped into the light gate decisively.
However, what Wang Zijia did not expect was that as he stepped into the light gate, the equivalence balance in his mind began to vibrate violently.
Not only was it triggered by something, it seemed to be trembling with excitement?
If it had feelings, it should be excited!
Then, a familiar feeling enveloped him.
······
When Wang Zijia came to his senses, he came to a familiar yet unfamiliar place.
The silver-white world seemed infinite around him, and it seemed to be in a very small silver-white room.
Wang Zijia was suspended in the center of the space. In addition to him, there was a page of a book suspended in front of him. Apart from that, there was nothing else.
When Wang Zijia saw the page clearly, he found that it should be a piece of... letter paper?
As Wang Zijia's eyes fell on it, the familiar information in his mind emerged again, and there were still two choices.
[Lord of the Savior]: Wisdom is reincarnated, and travels through time to save the world.
[The Sin of Destruction]: Sin causes evil consequences, and resentment destroys a world.
The inexplicable information that appeared in his mind was also two choices, but there was a completely different place from the previous three choices of crossing, no, two places were different.
One difference is: this time it was not a shuttle opened by Shi Nie, it was obviously a place prepared by humans!
The second difference is: this time the page in front of him is not a medium, or more than just a medium, it is also a serious letter!
Before, whether it was the book page choice of the little monk in the original Sanjie Temple;
or the long sword choice of the turtle sword fairy in Changbaozhou;
or the black and white chess piece choice in the Taiqing Palace in the East Desert.
It was just a medium, a rather illusory thing.
But this time, Wang Zijia was very sure that there was a letter in front of him, a letter with a pattern on the back.
[You have always said that you have never had the right to choose freely. ]
[You said that you are not a good person. ]
[You said that the world gave you evil causes, and you returned them with evil, and you said that you are lucky as a brother. ]
[You said that you blame the Father God. ]
[You said that having such a stepfather is the most fucked up thing in the world. 】
【Then, I will give you a new choice now, and let you feel the kindness of the whole world. Where you go depends on yourself. 】
【In addition, because of the Father God's forbidden time and space, the number of times I open the nursery for you is limited. 】
[Also, I will eventually fail, and can only break the seal of a certain time node. Therefore, from the moment you are born again, you will only have a hundred years of anchoring time. ]
[This includes the years when you did not awaken your memory. If you awaken at the age of ninety-nine, then continue to blame your brother and the Father God! ]
[If you fail to awaken... then don't awaken! ]
[Brother, Zhang Deming will keep it! ]
The letter was not long. As the letter on the letter paper emerged, Wang Zijia heard a strong and slightly soft male voice.
Moreover, this was not the first time Wang Zijia heard this voice!
