The beginning of the king guards the Great Wall

Chapter 42

The banquet broke up unhappy, and Jiang Ming couldn't eat anymore.

Say goodbye to the king and go to the library alone.

The Thousand Cave City Library is the largest library in the Continent of Kings. The majestic and majestic building makes it easy to mistake it for a palace of a certain kingdom.

Showing his identification, Jiang Ming strode into the library.

At the same time, on the tall building opposite the library, the king and Su Yu stared at Jiang Ming without blinking.

"Do you think he will be the one we are waiting for?"

Su Yu spoke with a serious and low tone.

"Hopefully, if it wasn't for him, I really can't think of anyone else who could be recognized by their ancestors."

said the king, with a slight twinkle in his eyes.

In fact, the reason why he betrothed Jia Luo to Jiang Ming was that besides Jia Luo's secret love for Jiang Ming, there was another purpose.

There is a building in Thousand Cave City called the Statue of the Scholar.

The god statue is made of special materials, which can seal up consciousness and never die.

The top scholars in Thousand Cave City in the past dynasties will store a sliver of their own consciousness in the statue of the scholar before they die.

Inherited for hundreds of years, the statue has integrated the consciousness of dozens of ancestors, and it is already the most intelligent existence in the entire continent.

A few months ago, the idol suddenly appeared.

It is predicted that Thousand Cave City will suffer catastrophe in the near future.

If you want to get rid of the catastrophe, you must find someone who can accept the inheritance of the idol.

This person must be pure in heart, wise, and preferably a warrior.

After much deliberation, Jiang Ming met this requirement.

"It must be successful, we don't have much time."

Seeing the back of Jiang Ming walking into the library, the king narrowed his eyes slightly.

. . .

"Is this the largest library in King's Continent? It's really impressive."

Walking into the library, Jiang Ming exclaimed.

All kinds of books are dazzling.

Many are even unique solitary copies.

According to the classification, Jiang Ming found books related to the creation of institutions.

""Mechanical Creation, From Beginner to Master", a very down-to-earth name."

"I'm going, this is too thick!"

Jiang Ming picked up a book from the bookshelf, flipped through it casually, the corners of his mouth twitching.

This guy is as thick as two bricks.

There is only so much content from entry to mastery. If you pursue a higher level, is it still worth it?

"No wonder some people say that the knowledge of mechanical creation is enough for a person to study for a lifetime. If the brain is not good, it may not be enough for a lifetime!"

Jiang Ming complained.

Fortunately, he was only looking for materials that could be used as energy for the creation of organs, otherwise he would not have to leave Thousand Cave City.

Open the table of contents and go directly to the energy section.

Jiang Ming read it carefully.

"Sunshine Stone, so there is such a magical thing in the King's Continent."

After a while, he raised his head, his eyes shining brightly.

According to the records in the book, all the creations of the Continent of Kings use a thing called the Sunshine Stone as their energy source.

To put it bluntly, this thing is a special stone that can absorb the heat of the sun.

Converting solar energy into the energy required for the creation of organs is equivalent to the solar panels in the previous life.

Not particularly rare, but only found in places with long hours of sunshine.

There is no such place in the desert in the cloud.

It is precisely because of this that although Thousand Cave City has books on mechanism creation, it did not give birth to a famous mechanism artist.

Without the Sunshine Stone, no matter how good a mechanism is, it would not be able to move!

"This is a bit difficult."

Jiang Ming frowned slightly.

The Jixia College in the eastern part of the mainland must have the Sunshine Stone.

But walking tens of thousands of kilometers, across several countries, just to find a piece of sunburst.

How many brains are stained with that.

And if he couldn't get the Sunshine Stone, Jiang Ming really couldn't bear to snatch the miraculous power from Dunshan's body.

After a long delay, Wu Zetian will definitely strike first.

At that time, it will really be that the bamboo basket is empty!

While worrying about himself, Jiang Ming suddenly noticed a stone statue in the library.

I can't tell what material it is made of, but it always feels like it is alive.

Especially the eyes of the stone statue seem to turn at any moment.

"Hey, this stone statue is a bit strange."

As if attracted by a mysterious force, Jiang Ming walked up to the stone statue like a ghost.

Suddenly, an irresistible gravitational force emanated from the stone statue, like a vortex in the deep sea.

Jiang Ming's soul was separated from his body, and he watched himself being sucked into the stone statue.

The next moment, Jiang Ming appeared in a strange and very bright place.

"Where is this?"

Jiang Ming looked around and shouted loudly.

"After hundreds of years, someone finally came in."

An old voice sounded, and dozens of gray-haired old men suddenly appeared.

Squinting his eyes and looking at Jiang Ming, his eyes seemed to see his children and grandchildren whom he hadn't seen for many years.

"Who are you?"

Jiang Ming's pupils shrank, and he instinctively drew his sword.

But he found that the magic knife Qianren was left outside, and he couldn't bring it in at all.

"Young man, don't be afraid, we have no malicious intentions."

The headed old man smiled kindly, his eyes full of kindness.

The slightly squinted eyes seem to be able to penetrate people's hearts.

Under the gaze of this kind of eyes, Jiang Ming suddenly felt a sense of inadequacy.

It was as if his whole body, including the depths of his heart, had been turned over by the old man.

"Integrity, kindness, tenacity, not bad, not bad, hey, he can also compose poetry!"

The old man spoke out Jiang Ming's advantages one by one, as if reporting the name of the dish.

Jiang Ming was confused.

"Who are you guys? What are you going to do?"

Jiang Ming asked loudly.

These bad old men arrested him to this unknown place.

If it was just to praise him, the ghost would believe it.

"We are all former scholars of Thousand Cave City."

The old man stroked his beard and said.

"once?"

Jiang Ming seemed to have caught something, and asked in doubt.

"That's right, it was once. Calculating the time, my physical body outside should have been dead for more than 300 years."

Jiang Ming was dumbfounded after hearing this.

Dead for more than 300 years, are these old men ghosts?
I'm a good boy, this is too exciting!

"The reason why we are still alive in this world is to find an heir."

"A person who inherits all our knowledge and can save Thousand Cave City."

The old man continued.

"Wait a minute, don't you mean to say that I am your chosen heir?"

Jiang Ming interrupted.

"Yes, that's it."

The old man said with a smile.

"I'll go, this plot is too old-fashioned."

Jiang Ming secretly complained in his heart.

I feel as if I have returned to the era when the protagonist of the novel had a cheating grandfather.

"However, it is not so easy to obtain our inheritance."

The old man shook his head mysteriously, and continued: "You need to answer my question first."

"What do you think is evil?"
