Without taking any quick action, Gu Zhou took Qi Jing out to play, try some local specialties, walk around and have a look, which was quite interesting.
But when Gu Zhou returned to the hotel that night, he saw Qi Mo, Gu Mo and Jiaojiao who had been teleported over.
Jiaojiao put her hands on her hips and said, "There's news over there, let's go there as soon as possible."
Gu Mo nodded, looked at Qi Jing again, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Gu Zhou sensed something and went to another room with Qi Mo. "Is there a problem?"
"Meng Yuan found a ruin over there that's related to my uncle. It's not good, so it's best not to let my uncle know." Qi Mo asked him, "Can you open the teleportation by yourself?"
Gu Zhou shook his head, "I can't. Although the two worlds can be connected with a teleportation talisman, it requires too much spiritual power. Even if I can force it open, I will be useless."
"Then go and ask my uncle to come back and pick me up when the time comes."
"But my uncle's personality probably won't work. He likes lively atmosphere and it's unlikely that he won't stay." Gu Zhou expressed his concerns, which was also true.
Qi Mo said, "Then it depends on you to persuade you."
"It's no use relying on me. Don't you know what kind of character your uncle is?"
"So you want him to see that. Aren't you worried about your uncle's reaction last time?"
How could he not be worried? When Meng Yuan mentioned those things, Qi Jing was obviously scared, and it was a fear engraved in his bones.
Gu Zhou asked, "Is it related to the attack on my uncle?"
"yes."
After getting a positive answer, Gu Zhou made up his mind that he must not let Qi Jing see it with his own eyes, or at least have someone retell it.
Gu Zhou agreed, went back to the living room, pulled Qi Jing back to the room, closed the door, and said bluntly, "This time you go back immediately, and come pick us up in a day."
Qi Jing frowned, "Why? Do you think I'm a burden?"
"No, Meng Yuan found some bad information about your past." Gu Zhou held the back of Qi Jing's neck. "Be obedient, I will tell you what I saw, but you can't go and see it, okay?"
Qi Jing remembered what Meng Yuan had said before, that the god was betrayed by humans and wanted to steal his dragon.
He was very scared. Although he had no memory, the fear was engraved in his bones. He nodded obediently and didn't want to look.
Seeing Qi Jing agree, Gu Zhou was relieved. He hugged Qi Jing and said, "Don't worry. You saw it last time. Mo Qian is very powerful. With Jiaojiao's help, we can handle it."
"Then remember to run away quickly if you can't win. Don't put yourself in danger."
"Yes, I will, and I will protect my second brother and the others." Gu Zhou kissed Qi Jing on the forehead and patiently comforted him with a few words before going out with Qi Jing.
Zhao Yin has returned and told Qi Shuo everything he saw, waiting for their arrangements.
Fortunately, the plan didn't happen so quickly, so Zhao Yin was able to go with them, which was safer.
Mo Qian used the teleportation talisman to wait outside the cave. When he saw Qi Jing, he frowned and looked at Gu Zhou with a blaming look. Didn't he tell him not to let Qi Jing come over?
Gu Zhou ignored Mo Qian's gaze, turned around and held Qi Jing's shoulders, "Go back first and come back in a day. Stay with big brother and don't run around."
"I know, I'm not a child." Qi Jing answered obediently, took out the teleportation talisman and waved to them, and soon his figure disappeared in front of everyone.
But Qi Jing didn't really leave because he saw Mo Qian's face, which was very dangerous and he would die.
Although the others did not look dead, they were also in danger.
This only started after they came here. The danger lies here, because the alternation between the two worlds is not very clear. He can see it, but others cannot, including Gu Zhou.
Although he was scared, Qi Jing still wanted to stay, otherwise what would happen if something really happened?
He carefully moved away and watched from the side. After seeing him leave, Mo Qian's expression eased a little, but it was still very solemn.
Gu Zhou asked, "What's the situation now?"
"Come in first and talk as you go."
Mo Qian was the first to enter the cave. As he went deeper, he spoke, "I discovered this cave while tracking the prison. The writing is very ancient, from the same period as the statue. I don't understand ancient writing, but Meng Yuan has been deciphering it and has almost finished translating it. This is likely where rituals were held ten thousand years ago."
Gu Zhou clenched his fists and asked, "Has my uncle been here?"
"Yes." Mo Qian replied, his voice a little deep.
Qi Jing followed behind the team. He was still confused when he heard that he had been here before, but the atmosphere here really made him feel uncomfortable.
Soon he followed into a stone chamber. The four walls were covered with ancient characters. Meng Yuan was standing in front of a wall, looking at the characters carefully and recording them. Yun Bao was sitting next to Meng Yuan, looking at him foolishly.
Qi Jing felt very uncomfortable the moment he stepped into the stone chamber. His head was throbbing with pain and his whole body was resisting.
Gu Zhou glanced at the words on the walls, walked behind Meng Yuan, and asked him, "What happened here?"
Meng Yuan lowered his raised hand and turned around with red eyes. It was obvious that he had been crying and was in a state of forbearance at this moment.
Meng Yuan said slowly, "Ten thousand years ago, those people drugged him, and he lost his divine power and was imprisoned in this stone chamber. Humans wanted the dragon in him, and those monsters tore his body apart and ate his flesh to gain strength.
He was afraid of dogs because of this. The prison that Mo Qian was tracking was a three-headed dog, a creature that mutated after eating his flesh!"
After Meng Yuan finished speaking, his emotions broke down, his whole body was shaking, and tears fell from his red eyes. He was angry at those humans and monsters, and also sad for the pain that Qi Jing had experienced.
How desperate must Qi Jing have been after losing his divine power, being stripped of those dragons, and being locked in this stone chamber, enduring his body being torn apart and devoured?
He was so powerful and shouldn't be afraid of anything, but because of those people's backstabbing, he started to be afraid of dogs.
Are you really scared?
No, Qi Jing was not afraid of dogs.
It is the shadow left after experiencing despair and pain, and the fear that is deeply rooted in his soul, which cannot be forgotten and cannot be escaped.
Others were equally angry, but that kind of hatred was powerless.
That happened ten thousand years ago, and no matter how angry they are, they can't change it.
At this moment, the only thing they were thankful for was that Qi Jing did not follow them, and they were also thankful that Qi Jing had forgotten all those things. As long as he had not come here, as long as they did not say it, Qi Jing would not have recalled those fears again.
However, Qi Jing, who was standing outside the stone chamber at this moment, already knew everything. He heard Meng Yuan's words, and sporadic fragments flashed through his mind.
Many, many dogs were biting him, tearing off pieces of his flesh and eating them.
It hurts so much!
It really hurts!
He wanted to escape, but he had no strength.
No one would save him, his dragon was taken away, and his body was being devoured bit by bit.
Many pairs of eyes were staring at him, vicious and greedy.
