Chapter 286 The Hourglass Secret
The hourglass, as the star in charge of time, has left a long and far-reaching influence in the history of various human cultural circles.

Xihe, Odin, Regba, Zong III Buddha, Kukulkan, the Crow of Stealing the Sun, Mithra... The ancient mystics used countless names to call this star, and those who worshiped it mythologically , turned into a story, infiltrated into the bone marrow of human civilization.

Each legend represents a part of the ancient mystics' cognition of one of the stars, the "hourglass". This book roughly records the legends left by various civilization circles for the hourglass, as well as the inherited secrets related to the hourglass...

Liu Li squatted on the side of the street, watching "The Secret of the Hourglass" by the moonlight. First, there were myths he was familiar with, and then myths he was not familiar with.

He watched with gusto.

After the fairy tale was told, the author analyzed the difference and evolution of the hourglass image for a long time. This section was particularly boring, so Liu Li skipped to read it, and then was attracted by some secret methods recorded by the author.

"In the previous myths and stories, the difference in image evolution is average, and they are only worth the value of ordinary folklore books. The secret methods in the latter are the most valuable parts of this book!" Liu Li's heart was pounding.

There are so many spells related to the secret power of the hourglass recorded!

"Although there are only rough descriptions of many spells and theoretical speculations, they are not even considered manuscripts, but they are very useful to me." Liu Li read carefully.

It was only when the sky was twilight that Liu Li stood up, exercising his muscles and bones.

"There are gains, but not immediately, but turned into my foundation and accumulation." Liu Li felt very helpless. He also absorbed the hourglass into Yinshen's interior and became the source of secret power. Even if there are many The technique was in front of him, but he couldn't release it.

"The biggest gain should be that I have a little more understanding of the persistent pseudo-realm. I don't know whether it is right or wrong."

"But..." Liu Li put down the book, a confusion still haunted him.

What exactly is the Unnamed Bookstore, how did it find itself, and what is its purpose?
……

Monkey Forest in the dream.

Heart Ape finally got rid of the shackles of the power of the omen, but its stone throne was blown up, and it was made miserable by the omen, which made it in a bad mood, and turned over without saying hello when Liu Li came. Lie on your side on the grass and pretend to sleep.

Liu Li saw the weakness of the heart ape, knew it was resting, and didn't bother it, he went straight to Ji Luluo's bronze door.

"The clue that I went to Wuming Bookstore in the first place was given to me by Ji Luluo. She must know a lot about Wuming Bookstore."

As soon as he opened the door and entered, Liu Li smelled the sea breeze.

Under the night sky, this is a big island on the route. Liu Li appeared on the top of the mountain, and at a glance he saw the "Warblade" parked on the edge of the island.

The entire island is covered with large green plants, and there are almost no man-made objects. Liu Li only saw a small port and a huge arsenal ship moored outside the port.

Liu Li's vision expanded and he began to search for every tiny thing he could see. He soon discovered that a bloody massacre was going on in the depths of the jungle.

Liu Li rushed over, and when he arrived nearby, even though Liu Li had experienced many storms, he was also terrified, there were too many young corpses lying here, Ji Luluo stood among them, her face, hair, clothes and stockings are stained with blood.

"Welcome." Ji Luluo greeted, she looked around, subconsciously looking for a place to wash her hands, but she couldn't find it.

"What are you doing here?" Liu Li asked.

"My previous experience was reproduced in the dream." Ji Luluo simply shook off the blood on her hands: "These people, they killed my best friend, I didn't come to save her then, and I didn't either catch up."

"They were strengthened in the dream. In real history, we were all young children, and only a few of us became low-level mystics. As a result, in this dream, they teamed up and almost hurt me. Fortunately, I made a breakthrough in my body skills, so I was not really injured."

"What's the matter, Liu Li?"

Liu Li asked: "I don't know now, are you Ji Luluo in this dream, or..."

"She will call you 'brother', but I won't." Ji Luluo said.

"Alright." Liu Li said, "How have you been recently?"

"It's not good. I was imprisoned in the excommunication prison without any contact with the outside world. I'm very happy that you can come to find me." Ji Luluo didn't smile at all when she spoke: "I'm going to take a bath."

"There is a mountain spring over there, I saw it when I came down." Liu Li said.

"I know." Ji Luluo said, "Do you want to see it?"

"Uh...no need, I'll wait for you outside the woods." Liu Li ran out of the woods as if fleeing.

In this position, he could hear the sound of water and bathing, but it was impossible for him to see the situation of the mountain spring clearly through the barriers.

Soon, Ji Luluo came out of the woods. She just jumped into the water with her clothes on and washed away a large amount of blood. Now she is wet, and the white uniform of Shenzhou Academy is tightly attached to her skin, highlighting her Excellent figure.

"Did Zhenjun Guang bring you here? Where is Zhenjun Guang?" Ji Luluo asked.

Liu Li shook his head and asked, "You said you were imprisoned in the excommunication prison and didn't understand the situation outside at all. What is the excommunication prison?"

"The Excommunication Prison is the place where the Qingji Sect used to punish the members of the Sect." Ji Luluo said: "It is also a place of cultivation."

She seemed unwilling to chat more, and changed the subject again: "How is the outside world?"

Liu Li didn't want to say it directly, but she brought the topic here, Liu Li still squirmed his lips, and said something he didn't want to believe: "Zhenjun Guang is dead."

Under Ji Luluo's shocked gaze, Liu Li slowly told everything that human civilization has experienced during this period, as well as the things he experienced. Only the things related to his own mystery and dreams he instinctively concealed and did not tell.

Liu Li was not very good at this kind of speech like pouring beans into a bamboo tube. He would rather keep many things in his heart than say them out, but after telling Ji Luluo about his experience, Liu Li felt a sense of relief .

"The situation is roughly like this." Liu Li said: "I met Wuming Bookstore on the way to be hunted down. I want to ask you if you know more about it. You know that I dare not go online or go to the mystic forum. research."

"You tell me to take it easy." Ji Luluo raised her hand as if surrendering: "What you said contains a bit too much information."

"Let's go back to the ship and chat on the way." Ji Luluo pointed to the arsenal ship Warblade moored outside the port.

"En." Liu Li nodded.

The two walked slowly to the outside of the island in a tacit understanding. At the speed of the two of them, they could arrive within a minute, but they all took a walk at the same time.

But the silence haunted Liu Li and Ji Luluo, Liu Li could only hear her own footsteps, breathing, heartbeat, and the sound of water dripping from her hair and clothes mixed with blood on the soil.

However, just walking side by side like this made Liu Li feel very comfortable. He hadn't relaxed like this for a while.

Ji Luluo broke the silence first: "I suggest you escape to the 'Black Triangle' area."

Liu Li frowned. He had heard of this place. The Black Triangle is located outside the border and is a well-known lawless place. It is full of various criminal groups. Liu Li has also watched many movies and TV series related to the Black Triangle.

"You are actually in a very dangerous situation now." Ji Luluo said: "Zhang Yu is a member of the Sequence Planning Committee. The reason why he is a member is not because he is good at identifying and cultivating geniuses, but because he can provide a lot of resources for cultivating geniuses. , he has a lot of wealth and contacts, and he can even be said to be the financial director of the Zhang family."

"The struggle between you and him has been gradually tearing apart. Zhang Yu will definitely spare no effort to kill you, even breaking the unspoken rules of the struggle between some mystics."
