"This guy is already fast asleep." Ruotao squinted her eyes and said so. Gu Sangnu whispered: "Why don't you go over and kick his feet to wake him up faster?!"
"Don't be ridiculous, you're not going to fight with the ancient mongoose, why are you kicking it?" After hearing the nonsense these two said, Guan Heng laughed and cursed: "Go away, don't cause trouble here."
Then, he said to Qinghuang: "Take out some of the food we have brought with us."
"Okay." Nodding, Qinghuang opened a large bundle and took out the preserved meat, candied fruits, and the fresh fruits picked when he came here.
"Uh?!" The square-eyed ancient mongoose, which was snoring in a dream, sniffed and smelled the smell of food. It smashed its mouth and thought it was dreaming. But then, Guan Heng and the others laid down.
I opened a piece of felt, sat on it and started eating.
"Haha, this tastes good."
"This meat jerky is good, you should try it too."
"I want to eat pickled fish, a specialty of the ancient spirit world."
"Well?!"
The ancient mongoose with square pupil, which had already smelled the aroma of food in its nose and suddenly heard the voices of Guan Heng and the others, suddenly opened its eyes and saw everyone sitting on the floor, eating and drinking. The ancient mongoose couldn't help but be dumbfounded: "Here, how did these people come to my house?
Is the dinner coming?”
"Hey, Fang Tong Ancient Meerkat." At this time, Guan Heng shook the meat in his hand and said with a smile: "Would you like to come over and try it?"
"That's...okay."
Fang Tong Ancient Meerkat said in his heart, this is at my house. You guys are having a dinner together. It’s right to invite me to eat something together. The most important thing is that the aroma of these foods is so tempting, and Fang Tong Ancient Meerkat is a super big man.
The foodie couldn't resist the temptation at this moment, so he immediately got up and walked over.
"Here, try this first."
"Bah..."
"Hmm, it tastes good."
"And this one, it's a little salty, but just eat some more fruit."
"Oh, you ate in such a hurry, why didn't you even spit out the bones and core?"
"Hahaha, this is so interesting to eat." As he ate, Fang Tong Ancient Meerkat became familiar with Guan Heng and the girls, all the beasts.
"Oh, so you are here to inquire about the body of spiritual fire and the mysterious door." Putting a piece of candied fruit into his mouth and chewing it, Fang Tong Ancient Mongoose said: "I don't know much about the spiritual fire, but
As for the mysterious gate, I know a little bit about it."
"Oh? Tell me."
"Although I have never entered the mysterious gate, I also know that the area inside is vast, and those guys who entered have hardly visited every place inside." The ancient meerkat blinked, and then said: "Do you know why this is?"
"I know." Ruotao said, "That's because they haven't found all the stone rubbing topographic maps and don't know how to explore."
"Yes, that's the reason."
Fang Tong Ancient Meerkat smiled, and then said to the Demon Mandrill: "There was a small bulging earth bag where I slept just now. There are some things in it that are useless anyway, so I gave them to everyone as gifts. You should treat me as a gift."
I've paid for the food, you go dig it out."
"No problem." The mandrill nodded, immediately ran there, used the ice-breaker to dig, and after a while, he got out the contents inside.
"Master Guan, look, it's a three-stone rubbing."
As the mandrill spoke, he handed the things to Guan Heng. He looked at them carefully and found that they were topographic maps of the area inside the mysterious gate. He smiled and said, "Did you get these after entering the mysterious gate many times?"
Stone rubbings?" "No, I've never been there even once."
"Huh?!" After hearing this, the girls were all surprised and asked in unison: "Then where did you get these stone rubbings?"
"Well, it seems like it happened hundreds of years ago, but now that I think about it, I still have lingering fears."
Fang Tong Ancient Meerkat said: "I was still in my prime at that time. There is only one thing that can prove that I can stand on my own and become the overlord in the deep ruins, and that is to explore the mysterious gate. This is already known to everyone.
It’s something.”
"I was not afraid of anything at the time, so naturally I wanted to take a look inside the mysterious gate. In this way, even if I didn't find any treasures, I could brag to my friends."
After speaking for a moment, Fang Tong Ancient Meerkat smiled awkwardly, and then continued: "But as you all saw just now, I like sleeping too much, so I got there late and the door had been closed and disappeared."
"Hahaha, I'm late because I went to bed." Zhenwen smiled and said, "What a pity."
"Well, I also felt it was a pity at the time, because the opportunity to open the mysterious door sometimes only happens once every few hundred years. It would be a pity to miss it like this, so I wandered around the area where the door had appeared, hoping to encounter some more
It’s good to learn new things and gain insights.”
"But at that moment, something unexpected happened!"
Fang Tong Ancient Meerkat said: "About five or six days later, the phantom of the gate suddenly appeared in the low altitude. I saw it from a long distance and thought I could rush in, so I hurried to check. Unexpectedly, three people fell out of it.
A seriously injured guy."
According to the ancient mongoose, it is relatively familiar with the three strange beasts, and they are all powerful and powerful beast kings nearby.
Who would have thought that after the three of them entered the gate, except for a stone rubbing each of them, they basically gained nothing. But after meeting, these three guys became crooked and thought that the other party had gained a lot, and they must have got a lot of good things.
Immediately afterwards, they fought fiercely with each other, and as a result, all three were injured. They were sucked out by the gate and fell in front of the square-eyed ancient mongoose. At that time, the three unlucky guys had their intestines turned green and were dying.
Seek help from the ancient meerkat.
After all, the ancient mongoose with Fang Tong was kind-hearted and helped stop the bleeding from the other's wounds and even brought them to a nearby cave for them to recuperate. However, the injuries to the three beasts were too serious. They struggled for several days and finally died of depression.
Before they died, they gave their respective stone rubbings to the ancient mongoose and advised it never to enter the mysterious gate.
Because no matter whether you get the treasure there or not, you will be suspected and coveted by people with ulterior motives after you come out, which will bring you countless troubles. In the end, you will die a miserable and helpless death like the three of them.
This is a simple truth that is easy to understand, but it can only be understood at the moment of death, which fully corresponds to the three words "regret too late".
After the three beasts died, Fang Tong Ancient Meerkat buried them, and when he left with a few stone rubbings, he spat fiercely towards the side where the mysterious door appeared.
From then on, it never tried to enter the mysterious door again. It ate and slept happily and lived a comfortable and down-to-earth life for hundreds of years.
"I see, you made the right decision not to go to the mysterious gate again."
