Tomb Raider's Notes of Qilin City Lord

180 1 Chapter Eighty Rest
After that, Pan Zi told Wu Xie about their plan. He said: "According to Dingzhu Zhuoma, walking for two days along the ancient river bed to the west of the devil city is the same rock where she and Wen Jin's team parted ways. The mountain pass and the road ahead were decided by Dolma himself, but he didn’t know it. However, usually this ancient city must be near the river, so he kept walking downstream along the river, and then he could only try his luck.

However, something has changed now. Let's go back to the camp outside Devil City to rest. When we recover, Sanye's team should catch up. "

Wu Xie asked: "But when the ancient river reaches this section, it is basically mixed with the Gobi. How can we distinguish it?"

The fat man said "Oh" and said, "Don't worry about that, come here." After saying that, he picked up Wu Xie, pointed towards the entrance of the cave, and said to him in a nonchalant voice: "Look at that."

Wu Xie frowned, raised his eyes, and looked at the entrance of the cave in the direction of his finger. He thought to himself that this meant asking him to look outside. There was nothing but darkness outside, but where he was resting now. It's at the bottom of the cave. If you don't walk over and take a look, how can you know? So I had to walk over and take a look.

As he gradually approached the entrance of the cave, a cold and moist breath suddenly hit him. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then exhaled a big breath. He felt very comfortable and refreshed. , accompanied by a very familiar voice.I feel something in my heart, this looks like...

He followed him forward a few steps and came to the entrance of the cave. As soon as he stopped, he felt water drops hitting his face. He suddenly knew and said: "It's rain! It's the breath of rain!" It’s actually raining outside!” He turned to look at us with an incredulous expression.

After saying that, he walked back and asked: "But doesn't it rain only once a year in the Gobi Desert? And it's not this season. What's going on?"

I said to him: "Brother Wu Xie, do you still remember "Ghost Town in the Rain"?" After listening to my prompt, Wu Xie showed an expression of sudden realization.

Looking at his expression, I must have understood that this is not an ordinary rain, this is a special rain that only happens once every five years. If you miss it, you have to wait another five years. The direction of the water in this river is to find the Queen Mother of the West. The key to the city.

I remember that when Wen Jin said ten days, he should mean counting the time from the rain. That means that in about ten days, the rivers in this place will dry up again, and by then the rivers will no longer be visible.

Moreover, once there are more people, the "it" that Wen Jin mentioned should be around... I said that the expression on the little brother's face is getting more and more... As I was thinking thoughtfully, I couldn't help but whisper I said "Hey", and suddenly, a familiar big hand fell from the sky and pressed the top of my head. I closed my eyes for an instant, and he stopped my little mind that was thinking... When I opened it again, I saw I turned to the little brother who was looking at me calmly.

At the same time, Pan Zizheng and Wu Xie said: "After the rain, the old river will definitely be full of water. Even if we can't see the river, the water can know it. It will be no problem to go downstream. Don't worry. Xiaosanye , you have to thank the rain, it had already started to rain when we found you, otherwise you would have become a salty fish before we came here."

Seeing that Wu Xie still seemed a little hesitant, Pan Zi asked: "Little Third Master, are you worried about the time? But now there is water outside, and you can't get out. Otherwise, we will carry you out and hide in this cave." It’s actually not comfortable to stay here.”

Wu Xie always felt that this was unreliable, but seeing that Menyou Ping didn't say anything, it seemed that there was nothing wrong with it. After that, everyone had nothing to do and went to rest.

After that, we rested in the cave. Wu Xie and Aning were still resting. Pan Zi and Fatty tended to quarrel whenever they chatted, so Pan Zi went to watch Wu Xie.

The fat man was sitting aside with an expressionless face. He was so bored that he frowned. He looked at me and my little brother blankly and said to us: "You said that you two are only in a daze or sleeping. You are almost growing on your sleeping bag." Come on, it happens to be raining outside, how about I put you two outside to flush the water, and when it clears up tomorrow, you two can take root and sprout..."

Of course the younger brother ignored him, but I looked at him nagging and said to him: "You think we are like mushrooms, they grow when it rains... Don't we just need to rest now? What are we doing if we don't stay here?" ?You should also take a good rest, it will take a lot of energy to go back, right." After saying that, she winked at him.

The fat man thought so, but he felt uncomfortable no matter how much he stayed. It was raining outside and he couldn't go out. He had rest inside and he couldn't mess around. It made him stand up and sit down for a while, but nothing happened. Hui lay down again, tossing and turning.

I still thought about these things quietly. Where did the buggy immortality technique that Queen Mother of the West was experimenting with come from? Who gave it to her, or who inspired her ideas? What does this have to do with my little brother’s family? ?Based on many known clues, at that time, I felt that the person most qualified to be related to this matter was "Chi You".

"Chiyou" was the leader of the Jiuli tribal alliance in ancient times. He originally belonged to the same tribe as Emperor Yan. He left Emperor Yan to develop on his own due to conflicts. He had 81 brothers and was known as the descendant of God.

If it was really related to Chi You, the Queen Mother of the West helped Huang Di defeat Chi You. After Chi You was killed, because he had an "immortal body", he was "divided and buried everywhere" to prevent his body from being intact.The Queen Mother of the West is in charge of the elixir, but with some of the previous methods, people who can live forever are not necessarily immortal, and people who can be reborn will become monsters. For a queen who loves beauty, she must be very dissatisfied with the old methods, so she is not satisfied with the old methods. She must be very persistent about immortality, it should be her ultimate dream.

The "immortality" of her elixir may be able to ascend to immortality for humans, just like Chang'e.However, except for the devas and beings in the formless realm who no longer have any matter or body and only have consciousness, the devas in the desire realm and the form realm also have the five degenerations of devas and humans.To God, her elixir is just a health product and of little use.So her early elixir might just be to extend her life.

Chi You had an "immortal body", so he was buried separately. Maybe it meant that if he was put back together again, he might still be alive?Isn’t it said that he is a descendant of God? Anything is possible, that is, he can be reborn and achieve eternal life.

This Queen Mother of the West's research project is "immortality, immortality, and eternal life." The three major elements of the loophole method of immortality are thus assembled.

Legend has it that "Chi You" had "animal bodies and human faces, bronze heads and iron foreheads, no grains, and only ate river stones." But it is also said that they were "human bodies with ox hooves, four eyes and six hands, ears and temples like swords and halberds, and horns on their heads. Iron-eating stone.”Chi You is a tribe of giants in the world.The two-horned bull head is the dragon in the traditional dragon culture, and the dragon has a horse face and an bull head.

Put it all together, human body, horse face, giant, etc., don't they look exactly like the group of Yin soldiers in front of the bronze door... The undersea tomb that the third uncle told Wu Xie has a weird locked skeleton with a long face, I think it was Wang Zanghai who kidnapped a Yin soldier from the Bronze Gate and went back to do experiments, because there is a nest of the Corpse King in the skull of the long-faced giant. The Corpse King can record people's memories, live forever, and still be human. The Queen Mother of the West must have also discovered it. Chi You's brothers must have started researching this elixir with the secret of the Corpse Dragon King in mind.

I have known about the Queen Mother of the West before. She is very evil, ambitious, and lustful. Where are Chi You’s 81 brothers? They don’t have a father, mother, wife, children, or other clan members?Impossible, not everyone in his family is as immortal as Chi You, with steel and iron bones.But it is possible to live longer than others and be physically stronger. It is not impossible for the Queen Mother of the West to experiment with the descendants of Chi You in her research on immortality.

Let’s look at the human heads in the clay pots again. The first thing to sacrifice for a human head is a male, and it seems that he has to be selected before he can be a sacrifice. The descendants of the sacrifices will continue to be the next generation of sacrifices. It’s not Just pick off the head. Then these people who were sacrificed should belong to the same family. Think about it, this family has a very difficult time surviving. The Zhang family originally did not have the surname Zhang, but they changed it to keep their names anonymous.If the Zhang family is the descendant of Chi You, it can explain why the Zhang family has only one purpose in the past, and that is to survive. This purpose is really passed down from the ancestors.

Looking at metals, Chi You was the first to smelt copper and iron. He was also the inventor of copper and iron wares and early weapons.There are bronzes and meteorite everywhere in this matter. The giant bronzes are obviously not made by human beings. This is also consistent with the fact that they are the descendants of gods.These two things are guarded by the younger brother's family, and every generation of Zhang Qiling in his family has his own exclusive meteorite weapons, usually knives. This is in line with the legendary "good at using knives, axes, and swords in combat." This can be regarded as matching. Come on.

It is also said that "Chiyou led the demons and monsters and asked the Feng Bo to make the wind and rain rain, and ordered Yinglong to collect water to attack the Yellow Emperor."

Chi You can summon ghosts and monsters. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, this "monster monster" was interpreted to mean a lonely ghost. Later, its meaning became ghosts and evil things, and this term continues to this day. .This seems to be related to Guixi.

After thousands of years, some things will always change, but there will always be some things that remain unchanged.This little brother is so good. The secrets he carries and the secrets he protects seem to be in line with the characteristics of a descendant of Chi You.

The Queen Mother of the West took away the secrets of Chi You's descendants for her own purposes. She also experimented on other people's family members and tribesmen, and even asked people to serve as slaves and sacrifices for her. This was too much, but she didn't do it in the end. Like it can be successful.

The Zhang family seems to be protecting the secret of the Queen Mother of the West, but in fact they are protecting the secret of their own family. The development history of my family is exactly as I imagined. It was bitter, difficult, and full of dangers.

I sat next to him and touched my chin like this, thinking to myself, nodding and shaking my head for a while. The little brother knew that he couldn't stop me from thinking about it, but the way he looked when he was thinking was quite funny. He didn't interrupt me, just looked at me quietly.

In this way, after staying in this cave for two days, both Wu Xie and Aning recovered.Aning and Fatty were familiar with each other, and Pan Zi saved her again. She didn't say anything more and rested quietly by herself. However, she became very cold towards Wu Xie. It seemed that she thought Wu Xie was also her third uncle. The person who arranged it came in, lied to her, and was angry.

Wu Xie thought for a while, forget it, just be angry, it's like this anyway, and he almost died, why bother worrying about this, isn't that not something he can do with himself?

We set off on the third day, following the marks we left when we came here, wading through water up to our ankles, and walking in the rain for two days before returning to the camp outside Devil City.
