Chapter 124 Finale (Part 1)



Pan Yicheng reported the situation back to China, contacted the Chinese personnel near the ruins, and started to arrange a meeting with Mondsen leader Q.

Chu Qianli had just woken up in the hospital. She and Tan Muxing didn't rest for too long. They changed their clothes and rushed to the Gate of Truth.

At the door, Tan Muxing had already changed into clean clothes. He was stunned to see Chu Qianli wearing a skirt, then he couldn't help but smile, and then he forced himself to purse the corners of his mouth.

"What's so funny?" Chu Qianli turned around casually, showing off openly, and said confidently, "We should talk about things formally."

"Aren't you cold?" Tan Muxing said helplessly, "When I made the clothes, I didn't expect you to wear them now."

The temperature in Country H is relatively low, and even though she was wearing a thick coat, she was still worried that it was too thin.

"It's not cold to take the bus there." Chu Qianli looked around and said frankly, "Besides, I feel very energetic now for some reason."

After Chu Qianli relied on the murals to survive underwater, she not only did not get hurt when she drowned, but also felt full of strength. Doctors believed that she was in a relaxed state at the time and did not struggle hard to put too much pressure on her body, but fortunately she survived the ordeal.

"After we go back..." Tan Muxing's eyes drifted away. He lowered his head hesitantly, and finally mustered up the courage to stammer, "I'll make you another winter coat."

Chu Qianli muttered: "Xingxing is so stingy, you only make one?"

"How many do you want?" He glanced at her secretly, and he had never said anything like that before. Suddenly, he felt embarrassed and awkward, and changed his words in a low voice, "...I can always make clothes for you."

"How long has it been?"

“And every year thereafter.”

Chu Qianli was stunned.

Seeing her in a daze, Tan Muxing panicked for no apparent reason and quickly explained, "Of course you don't have to wear all of them. You can pick the ones you like. I'm not forcing you to accept all of them..."

Tan Muxing was afraid that she would feel pressured, as if she had to wear the clothes he made.

"Shouldn't we do this every quarter of the year? Otherwise, how will I have clothes to wear?" Chu Qianli said proudly, "Xingxing should publish a fashion album when he returns. I'll see what new clothes there are every quarter!"

“Huh!?”

Chu Qianli whined aggrievedly: "Other people's Zhishi made many clothes, but my Zhishi only made one for me, so I have nothing to wear..."

"…But I didn't do it well, and I always felt like I couldn't give it to them."

"I don't care! I want you to do it!"

Tan Muxing couldn't help laughing after hearing her unreasonable talk. He took the lead in stepping down the stairs, took the initiative to extend his hand to her, and said with a gentle look: "Okay, from now on, I will make clothes for you every season every year."

His expression looked even gentler against the backdrop of the fine snow.

"That's more like it."

Chu Qianli returned his warm hand and headed for the next stop in the distance together.

Floating clouds are floating over the snowfield.

The area around the ruins is heavily guarded. It is far away from the central city and is an isolated and flat wilderness with only a workstation for exploration and research. Now, the surrounding area is sealed and fenced, and uniformed soldiers are standing guard every few steps.

The ruins corridor is located in the center of this area. At the door, not only is Abner waiting, but there are also security personnel equipped with real guns and live ammunition.

Abner heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Chu Qianli was safe and sound. He glanced at Tan Muxing who was holding her hand and said, "Q is in the hall."

The Chinese side had not yet mentioned the closure of the ruins to Mondsen, so he mistakenly thought they were here to decipher the seventh bead.

Qiao and others were caught while placing the Ruen Stone, and Lin suddenly caused an internal split, resulting in the loss of talent under Mondsen. Currently, only Abner is left in the field of occultism.

Chu Qianli stood outside the corridor. She did not go down immediately. Instead, she hesitated for a few seconds and asked, "Abner, why do you work for Monderson?"

"Because I want to collect occult data, but if I want to get in touch with the ruins, I have to go through Mondsen." Abner shrugged, "Who said this is their place?"

"If one day your curiosity destroys everything, will you still make the same choice?"

It is probably the saddest thing that people who appreciate the diversity of civilizations witness the demise of ancient civilizations.

Abner was startled and looked back at her in surprise. After hesitating for a long time, he asked, "Did you see something on the mural?"

"In fact, I saw some images after I got the fever, but unfortunately I couldn't understand the meaning of them, so I thought about whether I could collect more information for research." Abner's eyes were gentle, "If you already understand everything, then tell him frankly. I can swear to you that Q and Lin are not the same."

Abner is the mystic who has traveled to the ruins the most times. He makes progress every time he walks through the corridor, but unfortunately he has not yet discovered the secret of the murals.

However, he now had a hunch that Chu Qianli might have done it.

"If one day my curiosity will destroy everything, then I choose to put away my curiosity."

Abner looked at the small city in the distance. From a high vantage point, it looked like a miniature model, but it was a warm habitat that people in cold regions had worked hard to obtain.

He likes this place very much, and it has nothing to do with the ruins.

After Pan Yicheng counted the team, he confirmed that the personnel were correct and said, "Let's get ready to go in."

Mei Ru Z and Xu Zaiyuan were already standing in the team, only the horse-riding fairy Huang Jue couldn't get in.

Huang Jue has been in poor condition recently. He has been in a state of being a horse spirit for a long time and has always appeared as a Huang Xian.

"It is said that after reincarnation, the disciple may fall into the animal realm." Xu speculated rationally, "Maybe it is so, there is no way to enter."

"Little Taoist priest, I advise you to be more kind-hearted. I am from Shura Dao!" Huang Xian screamed, "What's so good about this place? I don't even want to go there!"

Meiru Z complained indifferently: "Why do you guys do all these weird things and still look down on each other?"

"Alright, alright, stop arguing, understand each other and seek common ground while reserving differences!" Pan Yicheng advised, "Then Huang Jue will stay outside with our people for the time being."

Abner led the way.

There was no change in the corridor. Chu Qianli and Tan Muxing walked hand in hand. This time she no longer felt pain when she walked through it. She only felt countless lifelike symbols on the murals floating down, sorting out her past, present and future clearly.

The flood of information made her feel refreshed and even her steps became lighter. Somehow, she felt that the team was getting bigger. Not only were there Pan Yicheng and others accompanying her, but there were also seniors who had walked here before.

The development of any numerology is inseparable from past accumulation. It is the communication and inheritance from generation to generation that has enabled it to continue to this day.

Chu Qianli glanced at the young man in ancient robes in the corner. He looked down at the compass carefully and saw a red baby stone in the center.

She subconsciously reached for her baby stone compass, but suddenly realized that she was seeing the past through the mural, and the person in front of her was a genius who had been here before.

"Ancestor?" Chu Qianli recalled the creator of the compass.

The young man in the ancient robe turned around as if he had sensed something. He seemed to have seen Chu Qianli as well and said in surprise, "Ah."

In this glance, he saw the future and she saw the past, and time and space intersected in the corridor.

The two astrological geniuses looked at each other briefly, relying on their talents.

After a while, Chu Qianli lost the connection. She looked at Tan Muxing and said in surprise: "Xingxing, I saw it, I saw it!"

"What did you see?" Tan Muxing asked with curiosity.

"I saw the Grandmaster!" Chu Qianli's mind suddenly lit up. She quickly concentrated and said happily, "So it's possible that I can see the younger generation."

She also wanted to see who would open the ruins in the future.

Sadly, she didn't see it.

Chu Qianli was bewildered. "Why is this happening? Doesn't the other party have any talent for taking advantage of others? Could it be that each generation is getting worse than the previous one? This really makes me, the Grandmaster, very sad."

"...You're suddenly giving yourself promotion points."

The group slowly walked through the corridor and arrived at the hall at the deepest part.

Someone in the team felt the same way, and Xu Zaiyuan showed a suspicious look on his face: "I think I saw someone from Qianmen just now."

Xu Zaiyuan always felt that this journey was different from the first time. He even vaguely saw a Taoist priest wearing similar clothes to himself.

At this moment, the old man next to the Gate of Truth spoke first: "You are here."

Chu Qianli looked up and saw that the hall was filled with armed security personnel. It was completely different from the empty state of the past. Q stood high up among the stars.

He looked at the group of people calmly, his hair was neat and tidy, and the color of his hair was golden and white, just like the sunlight shining on the snow on the top of the mountain. He looked serious and majestic. This was an old man who had experienced many vicissitudes of life but still had a strong character.

"Now there is only the seventh bead left, and we can open the ruins immediately." Q said, "After the ruins are opened, I am afraid that Lin will attack here soon. I will do my best to ensure your safety."

Pan Yicheng said seriously: "I'm sorry, after internal discussion, we think we can't open the ruins now."

Abner had anticipated this, so he was not too surprised to hear that the Chinese side had changed its mind.

Q's expression changed slightly: "Why? We should have already reached an agreement?"

"Because the right opportunity has not come yet." Chu Qianli stepped forward and said calmly, "Can I ask you why you wanted to develop baby stone in the first place? According to Mondsen's strength, there is actually no need to be so urgent."

Q stared at the young face of the other party. He knew that she had a feud with Lin, and that she was far more talented than Abner. He was silent for a moment, and then he said frankly: "Even Mondsen is declining in strength. He looks glamorous, but his growth rate has been declining year by year."

"I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but if I don't seize the new opportunity, after I completely withdraw, Mondsen will be nothing but an empty shell in a hundred years..." Q's eyes dimmed, and he said disappointedly, "What Lin is doing now may speed up all this."

Q As the current leader of Monderson, he can see the current situation much more clearly than Lin, and naturally has the idea of ​​being prepared for danger in times of peace.

An imperial family will be in danger without progress. Their influence spread all over the world, which also means that their fall will mean a terrible collapse and shattering. Only by seizing the opportunities of the new era can they be invincible.

Q has not handed over the power to Lin because he feels that Lin has not yet truly awakened and is temporarily unable to steer the ship, so he wants to wait until he is fully mature. However, this move stimulates Lin to rebel and betray the family.

In Lin's opinion, if he could capture Baby Stone, then Mondsen would be no problem.

"So the development of the baby stone is to continue the family?" Chu Qianli took the initiative to suggest, "Then why don't we take a share of the future of the Mondsen family after the ruins are opened."

"Sharing the radish?"

"That's right, this relic was not discovered by you, but was left by our ancestors, right?"

Q nodded and admitted, "Yes, less than a hundred years after H Country was established, the former clan leader discovered the similarities between the ruins and the Mondsen family crest, so he spent money to buy a large piece of land near the ruins and then began to operate and develop in H Country. Of course, this was all my childhood."

When Q was young, the global economy was booming. He expanded the Mondsen industry to cover multiple countries and fields, so he naturally had no time to pay attention to the small country H. As he got older, he sensed the coming decline, and with the continuous development of science and technology, he turned his attention to the Baby Stone Ruins.

"Then have you ever thought that since the previous clan leader did not open it, maybe the ruins are not good for the family."

Q thought for a moment and asked, "Do you want to take advantage of the impact of the opening of the radish ruins on Monderson?"

"Yes, the future is uncertain, so people will end up making things worse." Chu Qianli said calmly, "It doesn't take much time to take over the place, and there are many powerful people here. I can't just lie to you, so why not give it a try?"

There were people like Mei Ru Z and Xu Zaiyuan who belonged to the Chinese side, and Abner who belonged to Monderson. Chu Qianli really had no room to lie, and could be exposed by the masters at any time.

Q glanced at Abner: "Maybe you are in cahoots."

"It's not good to think of people like that. Mr. Abner trusts you very much." Chu Qianli spread his hands and said solemnly, "You can criticize our personalities, but when it comes to taking possession of the leeches, we may remain silent but will never lie, because this is our mission."

This is their original intention of studying astrology or choosing to practice, to save themselves and others. If they deviate from the direction, there will be no recovery.

"Okay." Q saw her determined look, and he finally made a decision. He then asked, "How do you want to take the spoils?"

"Choose one thing and tell me the number. I will predict where Monderson will go next." Chu Qianli looked around at the people around him and said generously, "Of course, other people are welcome to supervise."

Q thought for a moment, then silently took off the family emblem on his chest and read out a string of numbers on the spot.

"Is that all?"

"Yes, please wait a moment."

Chu Qianli looked at the badge of the snake and apple, then she wrote down the number given by Q and began to occupy the stalks.

As soon as she started reading, the murals under the dome of the hall joined in, but it was not as painful as it had been when she first arrived. Instead, it greatly expanded the amount of information it contained.

Abner also took out the pendant to verify Chu Qianli's words.

Xu Zaiyuan moved his fingers slightly, and he said helplessly: "...No, it still hurts."

However, Chu Qianli on the field was not affected. She was fully focused on it, and now seemed to have merged with the intricate and mysterious words on the wall. She easily touched the future among countless clues and danced in the vast information through the stars!

She felt like she had experienced an epiphany, and her mastery of occupies had reached a new level!

After a long time, Chu Qianli finished his work and slowly made a judgment.

She looked directly at Q who was waiting, and said, "If the ruins are not opened, your resignation will be the beginning of the decline of the Mondsen family. The arms business that has been passed down from generation to generation will completely collapse, and other industries and fields will also be affected. The Nordic and East Asian markets will be completely destroyed, and the long-inherited real estate will be destroyed due to force majeure. A hundred years later, the influence of the Mondsen family will be greatly reduced, and two hundred years later, the name of this family will no longer exist in the world."

The air was deathly silent.

Abner was immediately terrified. These words were simply murderous and heartbreaking, and not a single word was what Q wanted to hear.

Surprisingly, Q was not angry. He was skeptical at first, but now he calmed down.

"It's pretty much what I expected. Maybe I've already guessed it, so I'm not surprised after hearing it." Q sighed, "What if we open the ruins?"

Q had known that if things continued like this they would inevitably be destroyed, otherwise he would not have planned to open the ruins.

Chu Qianli paused for a moment and said honestly: "Mundson will usher in a new round of development. In the next 20 years, it will reach a new peak. As the main person in charge of the New Century Plan, you will become a celebrity in the history of the family and even the world..."

Q's eyes brightened, and Pan Yicheng immediately felt something was wrong.

The next moment, Chu Qianli changed the subject and continued, "However, the baby stone brought huge benefits to Mondsen, but also gave it irreversible misfortune. Thirty-three years later, a distant army set foot on the snow-white country H. The fierce battle caused the dormant volcano to awaken. The scorching magma will swallow up everything, including the Mondsen family who opened the ruins."

"Countless misfortunes breed hatred, and the descendants of the family fall from the clouds to the bottom of the valley. They will be constantly hunted down because of the baby stone, and finally disappear completely after fifty years. There will be no trace of Mondsen in the world."

The world viewed Munderson as a source of chaos, and it took only a dozen years for them to go from initial admiration to eventual hostility.

Of course, Q was already dead by then, so he couldn't witness this.

The ruins brought Mondsen a brief moment of glory, but also greatly accelerated his demise.

There was hope in Q's eyes, but it was extinguished in an instant, leaving only endless ashes.

He said hoarsely: "Whether we open the ruins or not, we will be destroyed?"

He just wanted to continue his family line, but it seemed that both paths ended in a dead end, leaving no way out.

"In fact, you already knew it, didn't you?" Chu Qianli stared at the old man in front of him. The old man had experienced countless hardships and was not a dull person. Instead, he had accumulated a wealth of experience and knowledge. Perhaps he had a vague premonition of the family's decline.

Abner looked at the result of the pendulum and said softly, "I can't predict such a future, but I can predict that she is not lying."

Chu Qianli: "This is all I saw. I don't recommend you open the ruins."

"Of course, I'm just making suggestions. The choice is yours."

Q's face was now grim. After a long silence, he could not help but ask, "When is the right time to open the ruins? And who is that person?"

Chu Qianli did not mention the Five Star East, but said calmly: "When the ruins were opened, Mondsen had become history, but a lineage still exists. The other party no longer uses the last name Mondsen, but will get to know the person who opened the ruins, and come here together relying on the information."

“They may be ushering in a new era, but it won’t be the Munderson era you think.”

"As long as there is a new era and as long as there is inheritance, that is enough. I have done what I can and leave the rest to fate. I have done what I can and let them do whatever they want in the future." Q said.

Q took a deep breath, made way for Chu Qianli, and said, "Come up and take a look at this damn dial. So we've been busy for so long, do we have to restore everything now?"

Pan Yicheng breathed a sigh of relief. He heard Q's decision and realized that the other party chose not to open the ruins. As long as the ruins were not opened, Mondsen would have at least a hundred years and would not be annihilated quickly.

Chu Qianli said hurriedly: "Ah, no need to restore it specially, I will study the dial a little bit, it should be able to be turned off directly..."

Chu Qianli rushed over and studied the six-star connection seriously.

Huang Xian stood with the Chinese personnel outside the ruins. He sniffed, glanced to the other side, and asked, "Is that a dead end?"

"Yes, the mountain is quite steep and there is basically no human habitation."

"But it seems like a car is approaching?" Huang Xian has more sensitive senses than ordinary people, so he can naturally be the first to notice anything unusual.

A moment later, a number of off-road vehicles rushed down and directly crashed through the front fence!

The people in the car opened fire on the people on the scene. Shi Zhuoqu broke through the outer perimeter in a car, while Lin and others rushed into the corridor in a car!

Lin's face twisted: "We can't let them close the ruins!"

The spy in the hall sent back a message saying that Chu Qianli was going to close the ruins, which naturally scared Lin so much that he left first.

If the Baby Stone ruins are completely closed, Lin's arrangement will fail, not only will he lose a huge amount of benefits, but his family will also have no place to survive. He relies on the Baby Stone to pull Q off the throne, but if the ruins are not opened, Q will undoubtedly settle the old accounts later!

Lin doesn't care about occupying the roots, that's all nonsense, he must open the ruins!

In the hall, Chu Qianli was squatting in front of the Door of Truth, concentrating on turning the dial, but someone in the corner quietly raised a gun.

Lin placed an important spy in the lobby. The opponent originally planned to seize the opportunity to shoot at Q, but now he had to take the initiative to attack Chu Qianli.

Bang!

A gunshot rang out, and blood splattered everywhere!

The shooter was not the spy in the corner, but the silent Tan Muxing.

The spy wailed and subconsciously covered his hands, then was thrown to the ground by the people around him!

Tan Muxing shot the opponent in the hand and shot the gun down accurately: "Don't point the gun at her."

He had already collapsed once by the dark river and could not accept the same stimulation.

He hates all violence and blood, and rejects those who hurt others without shame. If there must be someone in the world who raises a gun without restraint, let him raise his gun at the provocative shooter.

"I've been watching you for a long time." Mei Ru Z said coldly as she watched the spy being captured, "I've always felt something was wrong."

Mei Ru Z has a very strong intuition. Chu Qianli focused on retrieving the radishes for Q, while Mei Ru Z was observing the people around her and greeting Tan Muxing in advance.

Q was surprised: "I didn't expect Lin's people to go so deep into this place."

Xu Zaiyuan: "Someone is coming."

"A car is rushing in!" Pan Yicheng frowned.

Chu Qianli raced against time under the protection of her companions. She turned the dial one last time, finally breathed a sigh of relief, then stood up slowly and said happily, "Calibration is over!"

The six-star dial made a crisp click, and then the whole hall shook violently. Dust flew down from the corners, scaring the people around so much that they almost couldn't stand!

Chu Qianli set the final time, and the ancient ruins were completely completed, and the seventh bead slowly fell. A crack suddenly appeared on the seven-star dial, and a shiny object rolled into her hand.

Chu Qianli took it subconsciously, but no one else noticed this and was still amazed at the changes in the hall.

"Will this place collapse?"

"The murals on the wall are moving! They seem to be glowing!"

"It's really moving, how did they do that!?"

The murals all over the walls are like flowing galaxies. They emit brilliant light in the dimness, illuminating the hall as bright as day, followed by a dizzying rotation!

At this moment, Lin rushed into the hall recklessly in a car, and Lilith dragged the tied-up Qiao out of the car.

Lin raised his gun high. He first aimed at Q, then shifted the gun muzzle to aim at Chu Qianli, and roared, "Open the ruins!"

"Put the gun down!"

Others pointed their guns at Lin, and the two sides were in a tense situation!

Tan Muxing immediately took a step to the left and completely blocked Chu Qianli behind him, preventing her from being exposed to the gun.

Q looked at the frantic Lin and said calmly, "Lin, it's over. The ruins are closed."

"Impossible! Impossible!" Lin refused to put down the gun, and said angrily, "You asked her to open it, and she could still open it!"

Chu Qianli was blocked by Tan Muxing. She couldn't see the deranged Lin now, so she whispered, "I can't open it now. I have to wait at least two hundred years for the next time..."

If it was just a state of six stars in a row, Chu Qianli could indeed open the ruins, but she had just incorporated all her life's learning into the final correction and directly set the opening time to the appropriate point in time!

This is the mission she was guided to come to!

Whether it is astrology or Ziwei, without the accumulation of predecessors, she will never be able to comprehend its mysteries. It is not that she decides the future for mankind, but the consciousness accumulated by countless human beings over several generations has made her what she is today.

"Nonsense!" Lin turned to look at Lilith and the tied up Qiao, and shouted, "You go open it!"

When they came here, they brought Qiao with them because they were afraid of making a wrong move and wanted to force others to open the door.

The tape on Qiao's mouth was ripped off, but he did not cooperate and came forward, complaining: "My friend, is there something wrong with your brain? She was the first one you selected."

Qiao just felt that the villain was insulting him. If he could win Chu Qianli's selection, he would have won. How could he possibly crack the trap she set now! ?

Lilith went forward and fiddled with the crystal ball and the stone pillar, but still couldn't find any clues.

"You're worse than me..." Qiao muttered.

Lin refused to give up. His facial features were grim. He said stubbornly, "Q, don't believe in any nonsense. Let her open it again immediately. This is the hope for Mondsen's rise!"

"Lin, stop it, you lost." Q spoke weakly. He didn't understand why the successor who he had placed high hopes on would show such an inappropriate and terrifying face. Perhaps the decline of the family was inevitable.

The next moment, the mural finally lit up completely, and even the crystal ball was shining!

After the roar, the seven stars returned to their original positions, the ruins were completely closed, and a dazzling light filled the entire hall.

The mural on the wall turned into thousands of stars after a violent rotation, but the color was different from ordinary stars, and it looked more like it was dotted with bright red baby stones.

The shimmering wall was so dazzling that the people around closed their eyes. Even Abner subconsciously avoided it. Only Chu Qianli hid behind Tan Muxing, staring at the scene in front of her with a foolish look.

This is the birth of a miracle.

She saw in it the myriad dawns of humanity and a new future of her own.

The huge karma suddenly erupted at this moment, not only breaking the deadlock that had troubled her for a long time, but also re-sorting out the destiny of the human race!

Lin also looked at this scene greedily, but he did not see any miracles, and his heart was not moved, but he was only drooling over the red light on the wall. It seemed to be made of pure baby stone, but for some reason it could not be seen normally.

The next moment, he suddenly felt a white flash in front of his eyes, followed by a blinding pain, and the gun in his hand slipped out of his hand. He was instantly restrained by the people rushing over from the side!

Lilith and others were also arrested.

"My eyes, my eyes, I can't see anymore..." Lin just started to kneel down and cry. He soon realized that he was losing consciousness. He even lost the ability to speak. His brain seemed to shrunken in the strong light, leaving only an empty shell.

After a while, Lin lost his ability to speak and became motionless like a vegetable. He was still breathing, but he was completely silent.

Others rushed forward to check and reported in panic: "It looks like brain death!"

Baby stones can stimulate human brain activity, but improper use can lead to tragedy.

At this moment, nature silently brings down divine punishment on the reverent humans.
