I Was Once a Legend

When Cui Zuojing woke up, his mouth was dry and his head was dizzy.

He closed his eyes for a while, estimated his situation based on the information transmitted by other senses, and then opened them carefully.

He was lying beside a small pond, the water was on his right, a flat stone was resting on his head, and the intertwined leaves just covered the sun, leaving only mottled spots of light.

Tang Dao was placed at his feet.

Cui Zuojing tried to open his mouth and found that his throat and lips were not very dry, obviously someone had given him water.

He didn't make a sound, sat up slowly, rubbed his temples, and looked around but didn't see anyone.

Cui Zuojing moved to the side of the river, stretched out his hand to splash the water, it was very clear and cool, he washed his face, and splashed the clear water on his face, instantly he became sober.

There was the sound of blades of grass being plucked behind him, and the young man turned his head vigilantly, only to see a blond-haired, gray-eyed man walking out from the shadow of the trees with a snake in his hand.

Domingo was walking under the leaves with his head down. When he raised his eyes, he happened to meet Cui Zuojing's eyes. He paused and said, "I'm awake."

"Yeah." Cui Zuojing shook the water off his hands and stood up, asking, "You brought me here?"

"I rushed over when I heard the movement from the temple. I found you in the ruins." Domingo went to the pool to deal with the poor snake in his hand. A little messy, but still indifferent.

"Have you found anyone else?" Cui Zuojing asked. He was a little anxious. He tried it just now, but he couldn't find the prisoner link that was so obvious or even obtrusive. That is to say, the connection between him and Dong Zheng now Contact is broken.

At that time, Dong Zheng was directly smashed into the ruins, so he should be much more dangerous than him, but since there were no major wounds on his body, it meant that Dong Zheng was fine physically.

As for the mental aspect... he is quite weak now, and he doesn't have much strength, so it can't reflect the state of Dong Zheng's mental state. In addition, if the connection is interrupted, even if Dong Zheng's spirit is exhausted, he will not be able to return to the prisoner's space.

"No, I saw you alone." Domingo pulled out a knife from his waist, cut off the snake's head and threw it aside, "When I arrived, there was a monster wandering around, I was afraid it would stare at me, so I didn't pay attention. Search, only brought you out."

"Monster?" Cui Zuojing thought for a moment, before he passed out, he did hear the roar of some kind of creature.

"According to its appearance, it should be Behemoth, the beast of the wilderness."

Cui Zuojing thought thoughtfully: "Behemoth... I have already seen Leviathan. It is said that God created two monsters on the sixth day. The female is called Leviathan and lives in the deep sea. The males are called Behemoths, and occupy the whole desert."

Domingo added: "God also created a divine bird to protect other birds, called Chizhi. When the end of the world comes, Chizhi, Behemoth and Leviathan will become the holy world together. the food of the

Cui Zuojing: "We have also seen a big bird. It will set off from the central part of the island at dusk, patrol around and then return."

Domingo: "That should be it, I have seen it in the past two days."

Cui Zuojing looked at the sky. According to the direction of the sun, he speculated that it was already the next day. It was morning at that time, and it was probably close to the afternoon now. He was injured by a mental shock, so it should be impossible to wake up so quickly.

"How long have I been unconscious?" he asked.

"I found you yesterday afternoon, and now it's the second day."

The answer was exactly as he thought. Cui Zuojing was still a little dazed. He sat watching Domingo handle the snake, and suddenly remembered that someone had kissed him when he was unconscious.

He raised his hand to touch the area on his forehead and asked, "Has anyone else been here?"

"As far as I am, I haven't met anyone else since I separated from the cave until I found you."

Cui Zuojing frowned, who could it be?Or maybe he guessed wrong, in fact, it didn't feel like a kiss at all?

Soon Cui Zuojing was sure that he guessed wrong. Before he left home this time, his mother cried and kissed his forehead to say goodbye. The kiss full of love and reluctance was similar to the feeling of being in a coma. But now in the Pure White Realm, it is impossible for anyone to have such strong feelings for him.

Cui Zuojing helped find some firewood. Neither of them had flint and steel, so Domingo sharpened a branch and prepared a piece of wood. He sat on the rock and drilled wood to make fire.

He did it very skillfully, and after a while, smoke came out, the sparks ignited the leaves, and a small bonfire was successfully built.

There will be some parasites in snake meat and snake skin. Although the conditions are difficult now, we should try our best to deal with them.

Domingo asked Cui Zuojing if he wanted to drink some snake blood, but Cui Zuojing didn't refuse, the snake blood made him healthy, he took two sips, his mouth was full of fishy smell, he waved his hand, and returned the snake to Domingo , rinsed my mouth and went.

Domingo grilled the snake meat. After Cui Zuojing rinsed his mouth, he turned around and saw the man was concentrating on grilling, so he took off the shirt he had been wearing for many days, and took a quick shower.

When he was buried in the ruins of the temple, there was a lot of dust on his body, which was terribly dirty.

After being in a coma for a day, they were really hungry. The two ate a snake separately. Cui Zuojing felt much better with something in his stomach. Domingo buried the bonfire on the spot and asked, "Can it work?"

The boy patted his buttocks and stood up, saying: "There's nothing wrong with it, let's go."

The two walked together for the time being.

Cui Zuojing walked beside Domingo and asked, "I'm going to find my teammates, is there anything you need to do?"

Domingo: "I found a place, just to the west, which should also be a ruin. If there is no accident, you should be able to find a lot of clues about the box there."

"Okay, then I'll go too, anyway, I can meet other people at the sealed place in the center of the island after all the things are taken."

The two headed west all the way. Cui Zuojing had just woken up from a coma, and was a little tired even after eating. Fortunately, he just had to hurry now. Domingo's pace was not too fast, and he seemed to be taking care of him intentionally or unintentionally. status.

"Have we never met before?" Cui Zuojing couldn't help asking.

Domingo glanced at him: "Why do you say that?"

"I always feel that you are a little familiar, indescribably familiar."

Domingo smiled and said, "I have seen this sister before?"

Cui Zuojing pursed his lips: "Come on, I am not a stone, and you are not a fairy grass, hey, but there may be intersections in the real world, but we have all forgotten."

"Maybe." Domingo looked ahead, "The ruins to the west will arrive soon, work harder."

Before the sun was about to set, the two finally arrived at their destination. The size of the temple in front of them was similar to that of the northern temple, but the shape was a little different, more like the Parthenon.

"There is one in each direction of the temple, and there are props needed for sealing in it. Can you tell me what you saw in the northern temple?"

Before approaching the temple, Domingo specifically asked.

There is nothing to hide. Cui Zuojing told him everything he saw in the Northern Temple, except for Dong Zheng's burst of spiritual energy at the end. If he guessed correctly, his appearance should be due to the evolution of his ability.

There was a lot of trouble when Fu Zhe evolved his abilities. Fortunately, there was not much danger in the box at that time, and he passed by without any danger.

The ability evolution of spiritual brain developers is different from that of other people. If you are not careful, you may be turned into a fool by backlash, so each one is very precious.

Can Dong Zheng survive?

Although he still doesn't know what the result will be, Cui Zuojing has inexplicable confidence in Dong Zheng. He always feels that with Dong Zheng's room for growth, he will definitely accompany him to the end.

"There are seven character stones corresponding to the gap, and the pillar is engraved with 'I bless the dead', right?"

Cui Zuojing nodded.

"That should be Abraxas."

"what is that?"

"The supreme existence in the Christian heresy Gnosticism, and later Gnosticism failed. In Christianity, Abraxas was degraded as a fallen angel. Its name means 'I' in different ancient languages. bless the dead' or 'everything shall be destroyed.'”

Domingo paused, and continued: "Its name Abraxas is written as ABPA∑AΞ in Greek, and Euripides proposed that A in this name represents 1, B=2, P=100, ∑=200, Ξ=60, just add up to 365, which corresponds to 365 days of the year, and also represents the rulers of 365 heavens and 365 virtues. If I guessed correctly, the remaining stones are probably other letters, spelling out After Abraxas, the gates of the temple will open."

Cui Zuojing didn't speak for a long time, he was startled.

"No, you can even say this?" After a while, he sighed, "Do you have an encyclopedia in your mind? Is there anything in this world that you don't know?"

"My brain is easier to use and memorizes things quickly, so I have a wider range of knowledge." Domingo smiled, and the two of them went up the steps and stood at the entrance of the temple. Unlike the northern temple, the door of the western temple was actually open.

"Someone has been here." Cui Zuojing said, "At that time, the pilgrims we gathered were divided into four groups, and they went to the four directions of east, west, north, south, and north to collect supplementary illustrations."

"Go in and have a look."

Walking into the temple, the sound of footsteps echoed in the empty hall. There were not many things in the hall, and there were all kinds of statues on both sides. They were damaged to a certain extent with the passage of time. Cui Zuojing could not see the inside of the northern temple. It collapsed in the next scene, but it is almost the same as here when I think about it.

The moment he stepped into the hall, Cui Zuojing's eyes froze, and the hand on his side immediately clenched the handle of the knife.

On the high altar, someone was standing with his back to them, staring at the complex black and yellow mural on the wall ahead.

The man was dressed in a black robe that hung down to his feet. When he heard the two people coming in, he turned around.

Under the hood, it has the face of an old human being, with a slightly curly white beard, but there are fish fins on the corners of the robe where there should be two feet, and the arms are similar to some deformation of fish fins. Form a finger-like structure.

It is only about 1.5 meters tall, standing on the altar, overlooking the two rash intruders Cui Zuojing and Domingo.

Fish-shaped sage.

Its name immediately appeared in Cui Zuojing's mind.

When he first landed on the island and was still on the beach, Dong Zheng found a large piece of bones that seemed to be fish-shaped sages. Human heads and fish bones were mixed together to form a white beach.

Domingo said in a voice that only two people could hear clearly: "Apkallu, the fish-shaped sage, in Mesopotamian legends, God sent seven carps from the water to teach mankind. The first one was named Uanna. It has taught mankind many things and saved them from the age of ignorance and savagery."

Although the sage couldn't hear the content clearly, he also knew that the two were talking nonsense. He held a plain black cane, exchanged glances with Domingo, and said to Cui Zuojing, "Finally, I'm here." I've been waiting for you for a long time."
