Gao Yuan leisurely retreated from his cultivation state.
Although he does not have an accurate timekeeping tool, his long-term regular work and rest habits have made his biological clock more and more accurate.
Based on past experience, there are still about two hours until sunrise.
He stood up and stretched his body on the spot, and all the joints in his body immediately followed his movements, making a crisp "clucking" sound.
Chen Ziming, who was sitting on the bed with his hands and knees clasped, heard the movement, his eyelids moved, and he quickly opened them.
Gao Yuan saw this and said with a smile: "Did you sleep well?"
Chen Ziming shook his head subconsciously, then paused and nodded again:
"fine."
Gao Yuan didn't point it out, but then he seemed to remember something and asked:
"Can you cook?"
"Ah? No." Chen Ziming was stunned for a moment, and then whispered.
"Come, let me teach you, it's very simple." Gao Yuan greeted and walked straight to the stove.
Seeing that the girl had followed, he explained while opening the cover on the stove.
He picked up the dry firewood on the side and opened the simmering bonfire under the stove.
Then he broke off the dry firewood on the side and covered it loosely. After a while, the flames surged up, and then he sat the pot filled with water on the stove.
After the water boils, scoop out half of the water from the pot, then slice the remaining dried meat from last night and throw it into the pot, and finally add wild vegetables and salt.
Then he turned around and said to the girl beside him with a smile:
"Look, isn't it very simple? After I go out, if you are hungry, just follow the steps just now and cook for yourself. Do you understand?"
As he spoke, without waiting for the other party to respond, he picked up the hot water he just scooped out and put it on the stone table and said:
"Come, come over and wash up, get ready for dinner."
"Well!"
Chen Ziming followed behind and gave a low response. After standing at the table, she suddenly met Gao Yuan's gaze and said seriously:
"You promised my brother that you would send me to Qingliang City!"
"Yes, why do you say this suddenly?" Gao Yuan said in surprise.
"So you will definitely come back safely, right?" Suddenly there was a bright light in the girl's eyes.
Gao Yuan saw this, a gentle smile appeared on his face and said:
"certainly!"
"That's good!"
A relaxed smile suddenly appeared on Chen Ziming's face, and he said happily.
Then she seemed to remember something, suddenly turned her back and groped around for a while.
When she turned around, something the size of a thumb appeared on her hand.
This is a square jade pendant, its entire body is tooth-white, and its surface is engraved with mysterious patterns.
Chen Ziming's expression was a little strange, as if he was a little shy, but he still handed the jade pendant to Gao Yuan and said:
"I...I don't have any powerful treasure to give you. This jade pendant was given by my ancestor when I was born. It is said to protect myself from disasters, so take it with you!"
Gao Yuan looked at the girl's bright eyes, then looked down at the jade pendant handed to him, and said with a smile:
"good!"
…
Not to mention running all the way.
By the time Gao Yuan arrived at the previous insect valley, the distant horizon had just been dyed with a dull golden color.
The valley at this time was very different from when we left. The thick snow covered up all the traces left by the original war.
As far as the eye can see, except for the tall poplar trees that look like brooms, there is no other trace.
Gao Yuan stood quietly in the valley for a while, and suddenly felt something in his heart.
When he turned around to look, there was already another person a few meters away from his side.
It was a tall figure in a black cloak, the mysterious man who invited him here!
He quickly walked up, bowed and called: "Senior!"
The mysterious man looked at him quietly and said:
"Go to a place with me first."
Then Gao Yuan felt his whole body tighten and his whole body fell into darkness. After a short delay, his eyes lit up and he found that he had appeared in a small stone room.
Teleport? Teleport?
Gao Yuan was shocked and couldn't understand the other party's methods for a while.
Speaking of which, he has met a few big guys in the Hunyuan Realm from a distance.
When the accident happened yesterday, when the three Hunyuan realms, including the ancestor of the Chen family, escaped, although their escape was fast, there were traces to follow!
Only this mysterious man had disappeared several times before leaving. He had already guessed about this.
The experience before us also confirmed this. This mysterious man seems to really have the ability to travel through space!
He subconsciously looked around and found that it was a small square stone room, with an area of about 20 square meters and a height of about three meters.
In the center of the stone chamber, about two meters above the ground, a ball the size of a fist was quietly suspended in the air. Countless white lights spread from the surface of the ball, illuminating every corner of the stone chamber.
.
Through this, Gao Yuan also saw the situation of this stone room clearly. He saw that the furnishings of this stone room were very simple. Except for the three-foot-square stone table located directly under the round bead, there was not even a stool!
The walls on all four sides were very flat, and there was no exit on them. Gao Yuan's heart moved slightly at this.
Could this stone chamber be built directly into the mountain?
Just when his thoughts were racing, the mysterious man turned around, looked at Gao Yuan and said:
"Now let me tell you the specific process."
Gao Yuan was immediately shocked when he heard this, and solemnly said:
"Senior, please tell me!"
The mysterious man spoke calmly:
"At that time, I will build a space passage and send you to the entrance of an ancient ruins. After entering the ruins, you need to follow a specific route to the deepest part of the ruins, replace the scrapped energy core in the magic circle, and then restart the magic circle.
!”
Having said this, the mysterious man paused and then said:
"During this process, you need to pay attention to two points,
First, there are puppets guarding the ruins. Although these puppets have greatly declined due to their age, they still pose a great threat to your current cultivation level, so you must follow the route I gave you.
Minimize the chance of encountering puppet guards.
Second, the location of this ruins is very special. I need to consume a special treasure to build a stable space passage, and it can only last for half an hour at most. This treasure is very rare, and I currently only have one.
In other words, you must return to the entrance of the ruins within half an hour, otherwise, you will have to stay in the ruins for at least a year before I can rebuild the passage to pick you out."
At this point, a long, palm-sized object suddenly appeared in front of the mysterious man. It was emerald green and had a thickness of about half a finger, with a surface as smooth as jade.
When Gao Yuan saw this, his eyes suddenly froze!
This thing... although the color is a little different, its appearance is very similar to the thing dropped after death in the Kaiyuan realm!
The mysterious figure seemed not to notice Gao Yuan's reaction and continued:
"This jade slip records in detail your route in the ruins, as well as the specific steps after reaching the depths of the ruins. In view of the tight time in the ruins, you'd better study it carefully first and keep it in mind."
As soon as the mysterious man finished speaking, he saw this unusually emerald green item named 'Jade Slip' floating quickly in front of Gao Yuan.
He reached out to take it, looked at it over and over for a long time, and was suddenly speechless.
Having read articles for many years, he is certainly no stranger to the term ‘Jade Slips’, which is a USB flash drive in the world of immortality!
But the key is how to read this thing?
The mysterious man seemed to notice his predicament and said calmly:
"Inject a little inner energy, then place it on your forehead and concentrate on sensing it."
Hearing this, Gao Yuan hurriedly tried what the other party said.
As his inner energy poured in, a faint light suddenly lit up on the surface of the jade slip. He placed it on his forehead and concentrated slightly.
In an instant, a large amount of information suddenly appeared in his mind. This feeling was different from the epiphany when the system upgraded skills, but it was also quite magical.
As the mysterious man said, this 'jade slip' contains detailed information about a building complex, including very vivid drawings and corresponding text descriptions. The second half also contains an explanatory diagram of a giant magic circle.
, as well as the specific steps for replacing the core and restarting the array.
Almost instantly, Gao Yuan had a rough understanding of this ruins and the specific details of this mission!
He was amazed in his heart, and then he unexpectedly thought of the suspected 'jade slip' in the jade pendant for storage. He wondered what else was recorded in this 'jade slip'?
But now is obviously not the time to explore, we can only wait until we have time to talk about the specific situation!
