Chapter 052 Is it a prophecy?
Jiuxiao sat on the chair with a serious expression: "What do you think?"
Ever since he knew about the experiences of the two girls, Jiuxiao no longer treated them as children, but instead discussed things with them.
Yang Zengyue and Chen Jiaer looked at each other, and Yang Zengyue said, "What we have seen in the past two days is beyond our understanding."
The animals and plants she had seen in the apocalypse could actually be found in books.
It also indicates their birthplace.
Obviously, that place is not in Zhongwei.
Yang Zengyue and Chen Jiaer could both confirm that these place names were not in any province of China, not even in the uninhabited areas.
Chen Jiaer was even more apprehensive. "So, the apocalypse we're experiencing has already been predicted?"
Jiuxiao didn't know if this was a prophecy, but he felt that it was more like a way of retreat left for them by the master of Xingyun Temple.
Jiuxiao asked Yang Zengyue to recall carefully all the strange experiences they had in the end times, and see if there was any overlap with the underground palace.
Except for that painting.
Yang Zengyue racked his brains, but could only think of that mountain and the octagonal pavilion that he could see but never reach.
Chen Jiaer was also there at the time.
"Master, there's only that mountain, the mountain in the painting, that I couldn't climb in the end." Yang Zengyue felt that this mountain must be related to Xingyun Temple.
In other words, the underground palace of Xingyun Temple is not the end of all secrets?
Jiuxiao asked again: "You and Jiaer, who else went with you?"
Chen Jiaer looked at the spread-out painting and pointed at the octagonal pavilion and said, "I didn't see this octagonal pavilion at the time."
The expression on her face didn't look like she was joking.
Then, Chen Jiaer carefully recalled how he and Zengyue arrived at the mountain.
She and Zengyue set out after receiving the mission. The Zhaoqi Mountain where they eventually died was not their first time there.
But the third time.
The first place they went was the north side of Zhaoqi Mountain, where the peaks were extremely steep.
There are also many ferocious beasts appearing.
However, strangely, when they entered the unknown mountain, they could hear the sound of the ferocious beast, but could not see the shadow of the ferocious beast.
They actually didn't complete that mission because they didn't kill a ferocious beast.
On the third day after they entered the mountains, the roars of all the ferocious beasts disappeared completely.
At that time, Yang Zengyue did not say that there was an octagonal pavilion on the mountain, and the other people, including Yu Huishu, did not see it either.
Therefore, only Yang Zengyue saw the octagonal pavilion standing alone on the top of the mountain, which was exactly the same as the painting in front of him.
Why on earth?
Chen Jiaer and Jiuxiao couldn't figure it out.
Neither of them got stuck in a rut.
Instead, he asked Yang Zengyue to continue looking through other things.
After looking through the ancient books, Yang Zengyue opened the small box in the box.
There are nine in total.
The box was locked.
The metal pieces in the box look like keys to these boxes.
Yang Zengyue found a few that looked like a match and tried them, but found that they could not be opened.
After trying all those thirty or so pieces of metal, there was no result.
Had to give up.
Jiuxiao took the box in his hand and looked at it, only to find that he didn't recognize the material.
The appearance of these boxes is obviously made of animal skin, but unlike the historical customs of China and Ukraine, these boxes are not made using ancient Chinese techniques.
"Zengyue, please put these boxes away first. Maybe we can open them in the future." Jiuxiao asked Yang Zengyue to put away all the things that could not be opened.
"Yes, Master."
Yang Zengyue originally planned to put the books back and close the lid, but he found that there seemed to be something at the bottom of the box.
She fumbled for a while, not knowing where her fingers pressed, and the bottom of the box suddenly popped open.
There is actually something else hidden inside.
At the very bottom of the box was a piece of parchment so thin that you could see the other side.
The map above showed the topography of Zhongwei after the great changes. It showed mountains, rivers, and many places that Yang Zengyue and Chen Jiaer were familiar with...
Her and Chen Jiaer's heartbeats quickened, their eyes widened, as if they couldn't believe the scene they saw was real.
Chen Jiaer murmured to himself: "How, how is this possible..."
Then he suddenly turned to look at Yang Zengyue: "Sister Zengyue, am I seeing things?"
Yang Zengyue shook his head: "No, this is indeed a brand new Zhongwei map drawn by Zhongwei warriors after the end of the world, which took four years."
Jiuxiao listened to what the two said and was no longer surprised.
After all, two people coming back from the apocalypse is more surprising than this.
Looking at the two people who were already dumbfounded, Jiuxiao called them back to their senses: "Zengyue, put these away and don't let outsiders see them."
He felt that something was wrong, as if everything was destined.
Yang Zengyue nodded solemnly.
Then she put the map, the box, and her two knives into the space.
After putting away the things on the table, Yang Zengyue told Jiuxiao about the weapons.
"Master, all the weapons in the underground palace ran into my space when we left. I don't know what happened."
Jiuxiao and Chen Jiaer looked at her in shock. Chen Jiaer asked, "Sister Zengyue, did you summon them?"
Yang Zengyue shook his head, "I, I just took one more look at them."
Chen Jiaer held his forehead.
If she takes one more look at those weapons, she will take them all. I don’t mind letting her take a few thousand more looks!
"Since they have chosen you, you can take them with you. It is not safe to keep them in the underground palace." Jiuxiao was relieved!
Thinking of the statue in the underground palace, Jiuxiao asked the two girls what they thought.
Yang Zengyue bluntly said that it must be Lu Xingyun himself, and he should be able to sense their arrival.
This is a bit magical.
Chen Jiaer felt that the statue seemed to be watching everything happening in Xingyun Temple.
Like a bystander.
But it seemed as if he wanted to give guidance to those entering, but in the end he gave them no instructions.
When they returned to the underground hall, Yang Zengyue and Chen Jiaer looked at the statue again before coming to this conclusion.
Yang Zengyue always felt that there were still places in the underground palace that they had not visited.
"Master, our great master has taken you to these places before. Did he also tell us what exists in the underground palace?"
Jiuxiao thought for about ten minutes and said, "No, there are only a few places recorded in the Guanzhi. I have also told you all the formulas left."
Yang Zengyue knew that there was one thing that Master Qianyuan had not explained clearly, or perhaps he himself did not know it.
Chen Jiaer: "Could it be that because so much time has passed, some of the words have been lost in the process of being passed around?"
This may not be impossible.
Yang Zengyue thought to himself that there were actually two Xingyun Temples in Sikun Mountain.
As for the other Xingyun Temple, she and her master always believed it was a deception.
It is used to confuse the general public.
