Chapter 1773 Human World: Tomb of the Beginning
sand... sand... sand...
In the dead and dark tomb passage, Gu Qingshan walked forward slowly.
Cambrian civilization——
I have never heard of such a civilization.
It was originally thought that in the tomb of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, all the people buried in the tomb were the contenders of the Six Paths of the previous generation, or the guardians of the tomb...
After thinking about it carefully, the information I got at the time showed that many of those who exchanged souls with the Ten Thousand Beasts Grotto were guards of the tomb.
——Now it seems that there are still lost civilizations.
This is very strange.
Gu Qingshan walked forward while thinking.
But he hadn't gone far before he had to stop.
"What are you doing?" Gu Qingshan asked in surprise.
The old goblin flew out and hovered somewhere on the wall of the tomb.
"Look, the relief patterns on this wall tile are pretty good, quite exotic!"
The old goblin praised.
"Okay, don't worry about the bricks, we still have business to do." Gu Qingshan said.
The old goblin glared at him and said, "The relief on this wall brick is quite exquisite, I can't just watch it stay here."
The old goblin drew out his short stick, flew up and pried hard at the edge of the wall brick.
——He pried it until his face flushed, but the bricks didn't budge.
The old goblin was furious, waved his short stick and shouted: "Balahu, I order you to come down!"
bang bang bang bang—
All the bricks on the wall were peeled off, and they were neatly stacked on the ground aside.
The old goblin swung his stick again.
The wall brick with beautiful patterns flew out and landed in front of him.
The old goblin looked at the wall tile with satisfaction, and then went to look at the other wall tiles, muttering something like "...toilet...floor tile..." in his mouth.
——Finally, the old goblin put away all the wall tiles.
Gu Qingshan watched the whole process from the side, and said speechlessly: "Hey, it seems that you can only use one ability when you come to me - didn't you just bring a black magic?"
"What sorcery did I bring?" The old goblin squinted at him.
"Laughing." Gu Qingshan spread his hands.
The old goblin patted him on the shoulder, and said affectionately: "Yes, I cheated, so I can use more magic tricks - this is also to help you, Brother Gu."
"...Okay." Gu Qingshan said with a deep impression.
The two walked towards the depths of the cemetery.
All the ever-burning lamps, wall bricks, stair railings, stone benches, porcelain bowls, candlesticks and so on along the way were swept away by the goblin.
Gu Qingshan looked back, only to see that the road when he came was bare.
A tomb, before the exploration is finished, the things have been moved almost.
What kind of spirit is this?
"Hey, even goblins don't search for things like this." Gu Qingshan couldn't help but said.
"Those descendants of later generations don't know how to be diligent and thrifty in housekeeping. I'm different. I'm their ancestor!" The old goblin raised his chin and said proudly.
Gu Qingshan was speechless again.
The two continued to move forward, and after a while they came to an open square.
The square was empty, with only one black gate standing alone in the center.
The old goblin flew up and circled the door.
"Ah... such an ancient Phase World Gate is really rare." He said with interest.
"Is there a phase world inside?" Gu Qingshan asked.
The old goblin swung his short stick and cast a spell towards the black door.
"Tsk tsk, three hundred trillion years of history—this door has been closed for an incomparably long time, there should be no living things inside."
Gu Qingshan walked to the door, but didn't touch the doorknob.
There has always been a faint warning in the spiritual perception——
There was a very ominous feeling about this door, as if something terrible would happen if it was touched.
Gu Qingshan became more cautious.
He took a few steps back and looked back at the old goblin.
The old goblin squinted his eyes and muttered something, as if he was commenting on that door.
"You elves must have studied these weird things."
Gu Qingshan asked.
"You're right," the old goblin clapped his hands and said with a thumbs up: "Curiosity is an important cornerstone of driving goblin civilization forward—I often tell those younger generations that way."
"That's right, you are the ancestor of goblins, you must know how to enter this door." Gu Qingshan said.
The old goblin froze for a moment, and said, "Wait a minute—this door is actually a bit dangerous. If you use brute force or destructive spells, you will definitely have big problems."
The goblin tilted her head and thought for a moment, then lowered her head and began to turn over her purse.
After a while, he took out a dirty handkerchief.
As soon as the handkerchief was taken out, there was a strange smell in the air, mixed with various smells such as cake, barbecue, footwash, chocolate, booger, and sweat.
The old goblin hugged his hand with a handkerchief, then pressed the doorknob and turned it hard.
Click!
The black door opened.
It was dark inside the door, and nothing could be seen clearly.
The old goblin breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief, and then said: "The oldest door-opening technique, plus our goblin clan's swindling skills—if it weren't for this, this door wouldn't be able to open at all."
"Amazing!" Gu Qingshan praised.
"Then, Gu Qingshan, you go in, I will guard the door." The old goblin said.
"Aren't you going in?" Gu Qingshan asked.
At this time, two lines of small scarlet characters jumped out of the void:
"The door of true sight has been opened."
"Attention, this door is only opened once, and only one person is allowed to enter. Afterwards, this door will be completely destroyed."
Sure enough, the old goblin said, "Only one person can enter this door. I'm here to help you, so I won't occupy the only quota."
After finishing speaking, the old goblin took out a small scraper and carefully scraped the layer of gold plated on the doorknob.
"I'm getting rich now..."
The old goblin pocketed the gold and wrinkled his face with a smile.
Gu Qingshan shrugged and said: "Then you wait for me here."
He strode through the door.
...
The dark atmosphere around quickly dissipated.
Gu Qingshan found himself standing in a tall steeple.
Outside the spire are all white buildings, extending from the inside to the end of the line of sight.
A series of strange fluctuations emanated from the ground and rushed to the sky, isolating the surging wind and snow.
"Since this phase world is activated, it proves that our civilization is really extinct."
A voice came from behind.
Gu Qingshan looked back.
I saw a man holding a scepter and wearing a crown standing not far away, watching him quietly.
"Can you communicate with me?" Gu Qingshan asked tentatively.
Unexpectedly, the man seemed unable to hear his words, and said to himself: "The civilization of our Cambrian world can only be inherited by our descendants in the future. Anyone else who wants to spy on our history will be rejected by us."
"After all... the origin of our civilization is really strange."
"We don't want to cause trouble for other people."
"To make a long story short...we are able to reproduce, enlighten, build societies, and form civilizations because of what's buried under our feet."
The man waved the scepter in his hand, as if he was venting something.
"In the past seven hundred years, we have become more and more aware of our identity—"
"That's right..."
"We are like parasites, attached to the outside of that tomb."
"We worked hard to excavate that tomb, but we could only establish our civilization through a little bit of energy and little knowledge emitted by the tomb."
"For two hundred years, the living environment has become worse and worse, and the whole world is gradually dying..."
"We also desperately excavated that tomb, wanting to obtain more living resources, but it's a pity..."
"Our level is too shallow to meet the requirements of that tomb and to open up new resources to protect us from extinction."
"So, we finally came to a conclusion."
A look of deep sadness appeared on the man's face:
"No one actually cares about us, or our civilization."
"Our civilization was just an accident."
"—It was an accident caused by this tomb."
The man bent down and gently placed the scepter in front of Gu Qingshan.
"This is the map of the tomb, the last map drawn by our entire civilization after thousands of years of excavation."
"—it shows how to reach the entrance to the Necropolis."
"Yes, it took thousands of years before we drew a map leading to the entrance to the cemetery."
There was self-mockery and sadness on the man's face.
"It's ridiculous, isn't it?"
"However, with all the strength of our entire civilization, we can only do this."
"...this is the only thing we can leave to posterity."
"Take it."
As soon as the voice fell, the man stopped moving.
The entire tower and even the world have all come to a standstill.
——It seems that everything ends here.
Gu Qingshan was silent for a long time.
a tomb?
The sporadic energy emanating from a tomb created a civilized world?
After thousands of years of development, this civilized world failed to open that tomb until it perished.
... What a sad and incredible history this is.
Gu Qingshan sighed secretly, stepped forward and grabbed the scepter.
In an instant, a line of small scarlet characters appeared in front of his eyes:
"You got a map."
"This is the map leading to the world, the tomb of the beginning."
"It will guide you to the entrance to Gate No. 7 of the Tomb of the Beginning."
"Notice!"
"With this exploration achievement, your strength is about to be partially unlocked."
"special reminder:"
"You will face the real danger next, but since you are the chosen one, you are still not allowed to use the sword, otherwise you will immediately awaken all your strength and be kicked out of this battle by the Six Paths of Samsara."
