Fast Travel: I Don't Want to Save the World

Chapter 293 Diagram
What exactly is the low wall trying to convey?
What exactly is the pool going to be connected to?
What is the function of the ancient city?
Ye Qing and Shi Yin are safe and sound for the time being, why did Xie Lai and Qi Huaimei suddenly disappear?

Since Qi Huaimei saw Jin Xi, Xie Lai saw Professor Gu, and Shi Yin noticed Zheng Hongmei's hand, then, is it possible that the person they are looking for is in the ancient city?

There are too many things I can't figure out, and everything seems confusing.

They had no choice but to continue to enter the city.

Although I don’t know the name of the ancient city, judging from the scene inside the city, it should be a fortress on the ancient Silk Road. Most of the people entering and leaving the city are business travelers. They come here to exchange items or replenish supplies before moving on.

There were no other abnormalities in the city. They walked around a street and came to a wide square.

Seeing the square, Ye Qing took out the disk.

The square is on the south side of the ancient city, and one side is connected to the ancient city wall. Bronze discs are inlaid on the wall. In the center of the square, there is also a circular copper plate with a diameter of more than three meters on the ground.

She went straight to the wall.

There are big and small disks on the wall, the small one is the size of the one in Ye Qing's hand, the large one is nearly half a meter in diameter, and each disk has a pattern engraved on it.

Walking from one end to the other, she looked at every pattern on the wall carefully. Ye Qing stopped at one end and put back the copper plate that Qi Huaimei brought to Jinghua. In fact, this copper plate was Professor Hong's. He found it from a mummy under the low wall, and he handed it over to Professor Gu. On the way to Lop Nur, Professor Gu asked Qi Huaimei to keep it.

After she put the copper plate back, she read the content on the wall again.

"Ten witches?" Shi Yin walked to her side.

"The ten witches are just mortals. They have been looking for the technique of longevity. It is recorded on the copper plate that they went to a magical place according to the instructions of the Son of God."

"right here?"

"Yes, it is this ancient city."

"This place can live forever?"

Ye Qing looked at one of the pictures, and she continued: "It doesn't say that a magical place can bring eternity to time, it says..."

The ten witches seek the technique of longevity, and regularly pray on the top of the Lingshan Mountain to connect the heaven and the earth. One day, they saw the goddess descending from the sky with the Son of God, and worshiped him as a god. Before the Son of God left, he left them a task.

Namely, let them go in search of a magical place.

The son of God said that time and space are chaotic, and the common people are annihilated. If you want to live forever, you must seek empty traces.

In layman's terms, time and space are in chaos. If you want your personal immortality or the continuation of your descendants, you need to find a place between the cracks in time and space, and put all the chaotic things into the cracks.

Therefore, the Ten Witches found this ancient city and built several low walls nearby, using the low walls to transmit the things of chaos.

So far, Ye Qing understood why those ancient objects were found in the maze, and mutant creatures were found outside the ancient city, and there were also deformed people inside the city.

However, this space-time rift did not contain all the chaotic things.

The Ten Witches are just mortals with unique powers. It is not easy for them to build all this. The ancient artifacts were mistakenly absorbed when the low wall was launched. However, the impact of nuclear radiation has really improved. There is no biological mutation in Lop Nur now.

In addition, there is a sentence marked on the diagram.

Things that violate the numerology will be swallowed up by the void mark.

What is a violation of numerology?

Ye Qing and Shi Yin were all there, but Xie Lai and the others were not. What kind of numerology did they violate?
Ye Qing thought for a while and got the answer.

If Xie Lai hadn't called Ye Qing for help, if she hadn't intervened in the affairs of the Witch's Tomb in Yushi, Professor Gu would have passed away long ago.

Qi Huaimei and Jinxi may still go there to complete the post-production work. Due to the influence of the Yin Qi in the tomb, they may die soon.

If this is the explanation, when will something happen to Shelley?
As for Ye Qing and Shi Yin, didn't the two of them violate the theory of fortune?

Ye Qing walked into a dead end again.

"Come and see this." Shi Yin called her to the center of the square.

There is a copper circular plate on the ground in the center of the square, tightly gripping the ground, and patterns are also carved on it.

Unlike the twenty or so discs on the wall, which recorded a story, the disc under her feet had a scene on it.

The surrounding of the disc is blank, only the center has a picture.

In the painting is a towering tree that goes up to the sky and down to the center of the earth. A woman is tied to the tree trunk. Several clusters of dark fires are burning at her feet. Ten people stand not far from the woman. Ten people are exactly ten witches.

What does it mean?
Why is there a single painting?

Shi Yin squatted down, pointing to the tree in the painting: "This is a sacred tree."

"What god tree?"

"It is said that it was left by the God of Creation, and the Shenmu represents life, the beginning of all things."

"Where is Shenmu?"

"The place where the Creator God is."

The information they know is too limited, and the details of this kind of picture can only be identified by certain characteristics such as clothing. For example, it is impossible for them to see clearly the face of the woman in the picture.

This picture is placed in the middle of the square, so there should be something special about it.

They were originally looking for the whereabouts of Zhu Yu and Rong Sheng, Ye Qing didn't think about the picture any more, and went to look at the disc on the wall, but unfortunately they couldn't get any useful information.

The two of them went to the other side of the ancient city and were about to leave when they saw Zheng Hongmei walking in from the south gate of the ancient city.

Zheng Hongmei's expression was dull, her eyes were dull, she just walked in a daze.

Even if Ye Qing and Shi Yin walked to Zheng Hongmei's side, she couldn't see them. She seemed to be drawn by some kind of force and walked into the ancient city step by step.

Ye Qing and the two followed behind.

Zheng Hongmei walked around the periphery of the ancient city, then turned into the inner city and walked around, and then walked around the same way. On the fourth circle, she stopped in front of a weapon shop.

She turned around, took several steps in place, and then walked into the armory.

Ye Qing and Shi Yin followed suit.

When the three of them walked into the weapons shop, the scene inside was completely different from what they saw outside.

When they were outside the shop, they looked inside and saw that it was an ordinary shop, with a simple counter, chairs on one side and a wooden frame on the other, with several weapons hanging on it. When they entered, the shop turned into a cave.

The street behind him was dark ahead, with no end in sight.

Zheng Hongmei walked in, Ye Qinghe and Shi Yin stayed some distance away and followed behind her.

After walking for about 10 minutes, a vision suddenly opened up.

However, the situation is not optimistic.

The cave is very large, and only a beam of light can be seen on the top of the cave, and the light hits a large pit on the ground.

Standing beside the pit were Professor Gu, Xie Lai, Qi Huaimei, Jin Xi, and Wu Yu. Zheng Hongmei was heading in that direction.

Besides that, ancient music is also there.

All of them were facing the big pit.

Ye Qing and Shi Yin didn't move forward, they stopped by the cave, paying attention to the movement there.

Just as Zheng Hongmei walked over, Gu Le stretched out his hand and pushed suddenly.

Wu Yu was pushed into the pit by her.

Strangely, Wu Yu didn't scream, and Ye Qing couldn't even hear the sound of him falling to the ground.
