[Tomb Raiders Notes Sand Sea] Into the Red Dust

Daolai, "I was born in the Yuan Dynasty. By chance, I started to seek immortality. There is no path to immortality in this world. I made a mistake. I borrowed the power of the bronze tree in the Qinling Mountains to break through the shackles. Become a fairy.

But this is not the right way. Although I have practiced Taoism well, I have obsessions, so I need to go through a lot of calamities to become an immortal.I can’t remember what happened afterwards. In short, I have experienced many different world calamities, but they all failed. After all, I am a mortal body. Every failure in the calamity is a kind of damage to me. I only have the last One more chance.

Si Ming opened a back door for me, allowing me to go back to the world where I was born to experience a catastrophe. This catastrophe is called Into the Red Dust. I appeared in the last century. I met Zhang Qishan who fled from the northeast, and then went to Changsha with him.At that time, I didn't remember so many things, I only knew that I had a mission to enter the world of mortals.

I fought with Zhang Qishan and the others, but it was useless. Xie Xiaojiu knew about this mission. Later, Wu Xie and his family joined forces to make arrangements, and Wu Sansheng also knew about this matter.Wu Sansheng said that if I entered the game, I could solve my task, and this matter would not do me any harm, so I agreed. "

The more Gu Ran talked, the lower his voice became. Zhang Qiling handed him a glass of water. After Gu Ran drank it, he smiled and continued: "But later, as my memory gradually recovered, I found that the catastrophe of going into the world of mortals is actually to follow It’s been hard for me to connect with people, but luckily, I do connect with you guys now.”

Zhang Qiling knew that if the catastrophe had been completed, then there was no need for Gu Ran to tell him these things, and it was impossible to enter the Bronze Gate again.So he became a qualified listener and waited for Gu Ran to continue speaking.

"But later I found out in Tamutuo that this is not the case. The catastrophe itself is not established. You know about the Queen Mother of the West and King Zhou Mu, right?"

Zhang Qiling nodded.

"The Queen Mother of the West broke the rules of the upper realm in order to make King Zhou Mu live forever and ascend to immortality. No one can become an immortal anymore." Gu Ran shook his head with a smile, "My long history of calamity is just a joke. Entering the world of mortals is just an excuse, whether I can enter the world of mortals or not, I can't ascend."

Zhang Qiling pursed his lips, and there was a rare look of regret on his usually expressionless face.

"It's nothing, I can't ascend, just like you and the blind, just be an immortal." Gu Ran sighed, "But I discovered in Banai that immortals who fail to become immortals will eventually become monsters. "

Zhang Qiling pondered for a moment, probably knew what Gu Ran said, and asked, "Miluotuo?"

Gu Ran nodded: "I have heard people say that Miluotuo is the God of Yao, not a legendary god, but a real existence. Since Miluotuo is still in this world, it means that it has also failed. .Have you ever thought about why Miluotuo is in human form?"

"You mean, they used to be human?"

Gu Ran nodded: "Ancient ancestors. Do you still remember the twelve-handed female corpse we saw in the underwater tomb?"

Zhang Qiling shook his head.

"Forget that you lost your memory, we opened a coffin in the underwater tomb, and there was a female corpse with twelve arms inside, and there was a child in the female corpse."

Zhang Qiling frowned, no matter what the shape of the corpse was, having a child in her stomach meant that she was buried with her when she was pregnant.

Gu Ran smiled, "She is my friend. In a sense, her family is like yours. It is an unborn family. In their family, everyone has many arms. As you can imagine, this It is very difficult for the Zhong family to intermarry, so the number of people withered, and when I became my friend, she was the only one left. She told me the story of Mi Luotuo."

Zhang Qiling's expression moved slightly, and there was a faint bad guess in his heart.

"Have you thought about it?" Gu Ran smiled, and his tone was very peaceful, "Her ancestors were of the same nature as Mi Luotuo. They failed in cultivating immortals and turned into monsters. I just don't know what the ancestors did to make their The family has no influence other than physical deformity.

At that time, I already had an obsession with cultivating Taoism and becoming an immortal. I thought that she might not be able to tell me the truth, so she could only use Miluotuo's story as a side note. Unfortunately, I didn't understand it back then.But it doesn't matter, even if I understand, I can't look back at that time. "

"Wang Zanghai knows?" Zhang Qiling grasped an important point.

Gu Ran nodded: "I think he knows, otherwise he wouldn't let my friend be buried with him. You said that even Wang Zanghai can understand, why did it take me so many years to understand?"

Zhang Qiling didn't know how to respond.

Gu Ran is not a very smart person, but he knows a lot of information. If Gu Ran could calm down and sort out the information he knew back then, he might know the truth about cultivating immortals.

It's a pity that at that time, Gu Ran was no longer as rational as he is now.

Gu Ran shook his head, and his tone was not heavy: "So do you understand that the immortal people you can liberate by entering the bronze gate do not include me. Although I can't feel the changes in my body now, sooner or later, Rather than turning me into a monster in the end, it is better to die, and it can also solve Changsheng."

Gu Ran thought for a while and then said: "And I guess, as long as I am still in the state of calamity, and there is still a cultivator who has not completely failed, you should not be able to solve longevity after entering the Bronze Gate."

Zhang Qiling looked through his ancestor's notes again, Gu Ran's words were reasonable.

When the first generation of Zhang Qiling made the prediction, he did not expect that there would be people who were close to immortals in this world, so he did not consider this factor, but judging from the mechanism of the bronze gate and longevity, Gu Ran, a half-immortal, is not immortal. The immortal energy of the immortal will indeed affect the burial of the immortal.

If Zhang Qiling really went in, I'm afraid not only would Changsheng not be able to solve it, but he would also die in vain.

Banai shut up

Zhang Qiling was silent for a long time before saying: "In August next year, you need a ghost seal to go in. I'll take you there."

Gu Ran nodded, with a brisk tone: "That's still a long time. Don't tell others about this. Wu Xie and the others know about my calamity, and I will tell them that I completed my ascension through a catastrophe."

Zhang Qiling pondered for a moment and said: "You can't hide it."

Of course Gu Ran knew that he couldn't hide it. Wu Xie and Xie Yuchen just knew too little about everything. Once they found out this in the process of dealing with the Wang family, they would naturally know the truth about Gu Ran's "flying up". Heixiazi, the two of them are too shrewd people, I am afraid that as long as they are given a little time, they will be able to figure it out through clues.

It's nothing, as long as Xie Yuchen and Wu Xie can't know the truth before he leaves, it's enough.

Gu Ran thought for a while and asked, "The matter of longevity can be resolved in a year, so you don't have to leave? Come back to Hangzhou with us."

Zhang Qiling nodded, "Okay."

The two came out of the room, walked along the path, turned a corner and saw Fatty and Wu Xie sitting under the tree.

Gu Ran walked over with a smiling face, patted Wu Xie on the shoulder, and pretended to ask for credit: "I persuaded the dumb Zhang to come down, and he won't leave. Let's go back to Hangzhou and settle these things. gone."

Wu Xie couldn't believe it, and then asked: "What is the little brother going to do?"

Gu Ran thought to himself, Changsheng can solve it, so there is no need to do that at all.But this must not be said to Wu Xie now, so he put it off: "This is another matter, I will tell you after these matters are dealt with."

Wu Xie felt relieved, and the fat man put his arms around Wu Xie's shoulders and said, "Look, Gu Banxian'er is still the one who works, and I've subdued my little brother."

Wu Xie and Fatty hadn't fully recovered yet, so the four decided to stay in Banedo for a few more days.

On the second day of conspiring with Zhang Qiling, the black blind man came, he appeared in a hurry, and Gu Ran didn't even receive any news before he came.

If Gu Ran hadn't confirmed Zhang Qiling's credibility, he wouldn't have told Hei Xiazi about the Bronze Gate, and he would have suspected that Hei Xiazi had come to Xingshi to question him.

Gu Ran was bored in the room, the fat man was teasing with Yun Cai outside, Zhang Qiling was in a daze as usual, Wu Xie was sorting out some things.

Heixia hardly disturbed anyone, and quietly entered Gu Ran's room.

Zhang Qiling, who was in a daze outside, noticed it, but he was too lazy to say it.

Gu Ran's vigilance did not drop, as soon as the blind man approached the room, he heard footsteps.After he entered the door, he asked, "Why did you come here so suddenly?"

The blind man said in a low voice: "You asked me to check on Agui before, and finally I have a clue. Let me ask you, is there a person living in the mountain all the time?"

Gu Ran nodded: "Slumped shoulders, it's the person in the photo that Wu Xie got from Chu Guangtou, and also the 'Zhang Qiling' when Chen Wenjin's archaeological team went to the Zhang family's ancient building for the funeral."

Hei Xiazi nodded and said: "That's right, he has kept in touch with the outside world all these years."

"I can think of this. I met him face to face. He has lived alone in the mountains for decades. It is impossible for him to be able to speak so well. The people who are connected with him are Agui and Yuncai, right? Agui The most important thing is the business of the inn. People who enter the ancient building of the Zhang family will almost always settle here. The shoulders can know the situation outside through Ah Gui, and then kill all the people who want to enter the ancient building of the Zhang family. The cloud should be Ah Gui. Gui and the messenger with slumped shoulders, the little girl is very good at entering the mountains, even better than his father."

"More than that, if it was that simple, I wouldn't have come to see you." The blind man shook his head and said, "The slumped shoulder you mentioned, through the message he sent to Agui, is still secretly talking to other people. Connector, I noticed it when I checked Agui, follow along, guess who is over there?"

Is it worth the black blind man to come to Banai himself, Gu
