Chapter 1476: Emperor Sui's Stone Statue
"Zhou Wen...something's wrong..." Yu Qiubai found Zhou Wen anxiously.
"What happened?" Zhou Wen looked at Yu Qiubai in confusion, not knowing what had happened to make him so nervous.
"A large-scale violation of the ban occurred in Luoyang. Ansheng brought his troops back to Luoyang for support. Now the troops have left Guide Prefecture..." Yu Qiubai said with some concern.
"How many people did Ansheng and the others take away?" Zhou Wen asked thoughtfully.
"Because we left in a hurry and didn't bring anyone with us, those skeleton creatures lost their suppression and rushed out again in large numbers. It's difficult for us to stop all the skeletons from rushing out with our current strength..." Yu Qiubai explained the current situation clearly.
When Zhou Wen heard this, he knew what had happened. The so-called Luoyang forbidden creatures wreaking havoc everywhere was just an excuse. An Sheng must have already made up his mind to keep them.
"Teacher, take your men to the school gate to put up a sign. Then, if anyone wants to enter the school and get our protection, ask them to sign this contract." Zhou Wen handed a document to Yu Qiubai.
Yu Qiubai unfolded the document and read its contents carefully, then his expression gradually became strange.
"Isn't this a bit too inhumane?" Yu Qiubai said hesitantly.
"Since they have chosen to leave before, if they want to stay now, they will naturally have to pay some price. Otherwise, people will just think we are a scrap collection place. They can come and go as they please. What rules are there then?" Zhou Wenhun said nonchalantly.
Zhou Wen can only use the school as a base now, recruit some people first, and then start building his own city after finding a suitable place.
Zhou Wen's idea was good, but he had too few people who could do the job, while there were too many people seeking refuge with him. Many of them sneaked in without taking the initiative to find Zhou Wen to sign a contract, thinking that they could get away with it.
Zhou Wen also knew that many people had sneaked in. It could even be said that the number of people who had signed contracts was less than one-tenth of the total number of people. Most of them had sneaked in and had not signed a contract at all.
Zhou Wen didn't take it to heart, but just told Yu Qiubai to give more lectures and tell those people the consequences of not signing the contract.
Zhou Wen had his companion pet guard the area near the school, and humans from nearby areas kept coming to him for help.
Most people came to Zhou Wen because they had no other choice. Without sufficient strength, it would be impossible to rush from Guide to Luoyang, so they had no choice but to come to Zhou Wen.
Zhou Wen didn't have the mind to care about those things now. When he came to the Suihuang Mausoleum again, it had been about four days since he released those small animals.
Theoretically, if the power of the torch could really work on them, they should be close to death, or should have already died.
"Don't die... Don't die..." Zhou Wen prayed silently in his heart as he walked into the Tomb of Emperor Sui.
If those small animals were affected by the power of the torch and died, it would be impossible to build a human city here. Zhou Wen could only look for another dimensional area, but he might not be able to find a suitable one.
After entering the Tomb of Emperor Sui, the scene Zhou Wen saw made him stunned for a moment.
Not only did the small animals he had put in before not die, but they were all alive and well and surprisingly healthy. What was even more terrifying was that there were many cubs born by the small animals in the grass.
Zhou Wen was delighted. It seemed that the power of the Suihuang Torch was not to accelerate time, nor would it kill animals.
On the contrary, the vitality emitted from the torch will make animals stronger and healthier.
"After a few more tests, if there are no unexpected events, we should be able to start building the city." Zhou Wen watched the bird absorb the flame from the torch, and he could clearly see that the bird's feathers seemed to become more lustrous.
Not daring to be careless, Zhou Wen conducted some more tests, and the results showed that the power in the Suihuang Mausoleum had a strong vitality-enhancing effect on plants and animals, but it would not cause people to age.
"This is somewhat similar to my power as the Human Emperor." Zhou Wen was very suspicious that the Ancient Emperor Scripture was most likely created by Emperor Sui, and his original intention was similar to the Ancient Emperor Scripture that Zhou Wen had comprehended. It was just that later, because no one could get through this path, he took another path.
Zhou Wen took the opportunity to study the statue of Emperor Sui. Ordinary flames could not ignite the torch. The torch looked like it was carved out of stone, and without fuel, ordinary flames naturally could not make the stone burn.
However, when the bird's phoenix flame touches the torch, the torch will immediately burn, but no matter how long it burns, it will not damage the torch itself carved from stone.
Moreover, the bird was very interested in the phoenix flame burning on the torch. Every time Zhou Wen asked it to absorb the flame, the bird was very excited.
Zhou Wen used several fire abilities but failed to light the torch. He was still unwilling to give up, so he switched to the Ancient Emperor Scripture. The sun-like Human Emperor appeared in front of Zhou Wen.
As soon as the Human Emperor came out, Zhou Wen immediately discovered something strange.
The statue of Emperor Sui, which had been motionless before, suddenly began to radiate vitality.
When the bird used its phoenix flame to light the torch, only the torch emitted vitality and flames, and there was nothing unusual about the body of the Suihuang statue.
But now, the body of the Suihuang statue actually began to radiate vitality. Although it was not as strong as before, it made Zhou Wen somewhat happy.
With a thought, the Human Emperor reached out and pressed the stone torch in the hands of the Sui Emperor statue.
The torch, which could not be ignited by ordinary flame power, suddenly caught fire as soon as it touched the Human Emperor.
Not only the torch, but the entire statue of Emperor Sui was burning, as if it had been doused with gasoline.
The flames and vitality on Emperor Sui's body were transmitted to Emperor Ren at the same time, making the Emperor Ren, who was already as dazzling as light and shadow, even more dazzling.
Zhou Wen could clearly feel that the Ancient Emperor Sutra in his body was running wildly, and the vitality around him was constantly pouring into his body.
Boom!
A deafening roar suddenly reached Zhou Wen's ears, and the burning statue of Emperor Sui actually began to move.
The statue of Emperor Sui, which was clearly made of stone, was now slowly raising his legs and standing up from the stone base. The fire of vitality on his body was becoming more and more intense, making it almost difficult to see his body clearly.
Especially those eyes, which were like two 2-million-watt searchlights, staring at Zhou Wen and the Human Emperor.
Good night.
