Ancient Gene [End Times]

"Then is this related to the current situation?" Qin An said, "Didn't it mean that the jade card can solve this disaster?"

"The only thing that jade cards can solve is the disaster of human beings." Qi Xi said, "Collection of twelve jade cards can give human beings a chance of life. This is why we came here."

Having said that, Qi Xi paused, and said again: "Let's continue walking."

Qi Xian was still leading the way, and Tian Gui didn't put away the Batian, but held it in his hands, and recorded the surrounding situation at any time.

There are a total of two doors in this space, one is the entrance just entered, and the other is on the opposite side of the entrance, which is a step deeper.

Ahead, is the entrance of another passage, but it looks narrower.

I only walked forward for a few minutes, turned two corners, and saw a light in front of me.Although the light was dim, it felt that if it got close, it could illuminate something.

When he got close, Qi Xiu first turned off the portable lamp.The passage ahead is much larger, and there are actually oil lamps placed on both sides.The oil lamp is in the shape of a bird's head, with a long neck sticking out, without a body, or the body is inside the wall.The walls are made of green bricks, and if you look at it under the light of the oil lamp, which is not particularly bright, there are some words written on the green bricks.

Tian Gui asked Zhu Batian: "Do you understand?"

The voice of Dominant Heaven’s Electricity sounded, which finally made the closed space feel a bit more technological: "Words are recorded, but they cannot be composed into words. These are garbled characters arranged in sequence. I can input them all into the system , and I will decipher it."

Qiu Ling said in a cold voice: "This piece records formations, and you won't need to decipher them. The previous piece should be spells. What is recorded here is a compulsory course for the patriarch. Even if it's talent there, it's not natural The patriarch, it is also difficult to learn."

"Why are these lights on?" Bao Xinyu asked.

Qin An said: "Ten thousand years lamp. I read the news before that this kind of wick is made of special material, and there is enough lamp oil stored in the wall. As long as there are no special circumstances, it is no problem to light it for hundreds of years. But it may be due to lack of oxygen, it seems that the lights in the tombs with ten thousand year lights are still on."

Qi Xi said: "The oil in here has never been added, but my grandfather has lit a few lamps that have been extinguished. The air here is circulated, but there is never any wind, and the lights are rarely extinguished. I didn't Here's a chance."

Bao Xinyu smirked and said, "Wouldn't it be possible to order if you blow out two?"

Ke Chenguang pulled Bao Xinyu, Bao Xinyu turned around and grinned.

"As usual, even the patriarch would just come here. Many families have no way to teach, so they learn here." Qi Xi said.

"No wonder you came in and stayed here for a month when you first became the patriarch." Qiu Ling touched the words carved on the wall, "I almost thought that something happened to you, and the family was reluctant to tell me."

"If you like this place, you can also stay here. You have learned bigu, ten days and half a month is no problem." Qi Xi said with a smile.

"I don't like it." Qiu Ling looked forward: "If you go any further, you won't be able to use the flashlight."

Otherwise, Qi Xi would not have deliberately turned off the portable lamp.Because the road is not too long, and the light is not very bright, it is not a waste to walk there with a lamp, and Qi Yu is not so frugal.

"Well, prepare the candles." Qi Kui found the candles from his pocket, and directly lit the candles with the oil lamp.Under this candle, there is a small candlestick, which is not heavy, just enough to ensure that the wax oil will not burn your hands when it flows down, and it will also ensure that your hands will not be burned after the candle is lit.

"Further ahead, the terrain will be a bit complicated, so we must not get lost. You may encounter mutant animals. Be careful not to be scattered."

"clear."

Qin An had faintly heard the voices of some mutated animals.

Four of the eight people lit candles, so two of them used one to light up alternately.Holding candles for a long time is a bit hard, and you will have some scruples when you meet mutant animals.Hold it alternately in this way, and you are not afraid of special circumstances.

Qin An kept walking beside the crowd when the road section was loose. The skin on the surface of his body had already mutated, and he was almost ready to enter a combat state at any time.

Qi Xi recalled the terrain inside, and counted the number of steps on the soles of his feet.

Pushing the wall next to him with his right hand, the wall was just loose, and there was a secret door hidden.

"It's here." Qi Xi heaved a sigh of relief, and pushed the door open forcefully.Several people filed in, and after everyone had passed, the door was closed again.

"This mechanism is quite a coincidence." Bao Xinyu turned around and sighed in a low voice.

"The longer the mechanism, the simpler the principle. This shouldn't be too complicated." Qin An whispered.

He Siming nodded: "Indeed, I have thought of two ways to make the door go back automatically."

Qin An smiled and said, "Swing door?"

"It's a way."

As soon as the laughter started, the ground shook for a while, and then, even though the sound was far away, there was a deterrent roar that could already feel the roar of the mountain.I couldn't tell what it was, but I couldn't help but feel flustered when I heard it.

Qin An directly mutated the two arms and legs, the bulging muscles made the clothes tight, and if the body grew a little longer, the clothes would be torn.

"It's okay." Qi Xi said, "It's still far away from us, so it can't hurt us." Qiu Ling said strangely: "How could there be giant monsters coming in in the forbidden area? They have no chance to rampage at all."

Small animals may also walk around in the passage because of their small size, but large animals cannot enter any entrance at all.

"Maybe it crawled in when I was a child, but now I've grown up." Qin An said.

"There isn't much food here for it to grow up. Just by the sound, it should be a giant. It's strange, there shouldn't be any conditions for them to mutate to be so powerful." Qiu Ling frowned.

"There has never been an absolute in this world. It can only be said that what we know now is not comprehensive." Qi Xi laughed.

"Do you know what's going on?" Qiu Ling said, "You should be more nervous than me about this kind of thing. If a monster really destroys something here, people in future generations will never see it again."

"If that's the case, it's fate." Qi Xi could see it, and walked a few steps quickly.

There was a big earthquake just now, but it stopped for just a moment.Bao Xinyu sprinkled a little candle oil on his chest, Bao Xinyu frowned and wiped it, looked up to see that they were all walking forward, he ran two steps forward for fear of being left behind, and followed a few people.

Because the light source of the candle is limited, the places he can see are also limited, Qin An mutated his eyes, looked forward, and found that the space here is not small, but there are three stone stairs, two downwards, one up.

Qi Xi led a few people into a downward stone staircase, only waiting to walk down the last step, and then looked up to see another similar space.

Qi Xi still chose a downward step, and finally walked up and down for nearly an hour.Let alone a kid like Bao Xinyu, a calmer kid like Tiangui is a little upset and irritable.

It can't be said that he is in a bad mood, but that it is really depressing here.Almost the same environment, up and down repeatedly, how can there be no reason not to be upset?

"How long will we have?" Qin An asked Qiu Ling.

"Regret?" Qiu Ling said coldly.

Qin An's ears kept changing, and when he looked at Qiu Ling, he heard Qiu Ling's heartbeat, which was beating faster and faster. It could be seen that under Qiu Ling's sarcastic appearance, she was extremely nervous.

Why is my heart beating so fast?

What is she nervous about?

At this time, there was another loud roar.

Not a single mutated animal was seen.Qin An's cochlea hurt from the abrupt roar.

Take a few steps quickly to see Qi Xiu.Seeing his expression as usual.

Qin An rubbed his ears: "Do you know the origin of that monster?"

Qi Xi never lied, only nodded, but did not answer.

Just this moment, Qin An felt relieved.At the beginning, Qi Xi was able to order the huge killer whale to come and drink. Since Qi Xi knew the origin and was not nervous, there must be no problem.

"How long have we been down?" Qin An whispered to He Siming.

"It's been more than two hours." He Siming lowered his head and nodded his bracelet.

Qiu Ling said before that it would take four hours, that is to say, it is only halfway there now?

In fact, now Qin An wished for a few mutated animals to come out and have a good fight, which was much better than this boring maze walk.

Around here, only flickering candlelight can be seen, but the echoing footsteps in the open environment are really uncomfortable.

"It's almost here." Perhaps because he sensed the anxiety of the crowd, the words Qi Xi uttered only made everyone feel as if a clear spring was being drunk into their mouths, and it was so refreshing that they cleared up their minds.

Tiangui patted Batian: "Get ready to go to work."

Zhubatian made several electric sounds before saying: "The system is ready."

Qi Yu said to Batian symmetrically: "When you enter in a while, remember to turn on the anti-magnetic field protection system."

Dominate the Way of Heaven: "It has been opened."

Tiangui wondered: "Is the magnetic field reaction inside stronger than here?"

Qi Xiu said: "I already feel that sense of oppression. But don't worry, other than me and Zhu Batian, no one else can feel it here."

It's as if Qi Xi is a robot.

Everyone else had this idea in their hearts, but they didn't say it out loud.

Qiu Ling quickly walked a few steps, and came directly in front of Qi Xi: "It must be the door in front."

"Slow down." Qi Xi stretched out his hand to pull, but Qiu Ling had already left him behind.

"Slow down." Qi Xi stretched out his hand to pull, but Qiu Ling had already left him behind.

"Brother, you know, I once saw some things in your study that I shouldn't have seen." Qiu Ling stared at the front, even if there was no candle, she could still see.

"Some things are not recorded in the book. Or some things are only half recorded." Qi Yu seemed to have a premonition of what Qiu Ling was going to do, and frowned.

"You know my personality. If I could change it, I would have changed it when I was young." Qiu Ling turned her head and smiled at him, "When I knew I couldn't stop you, I decided what to do gone."

"It's useless." Qi Xi only said.

The time to speak has already reached a door.

It was a simple metal door with two doors, and there was a well at the door.

Qiu Ling looked down at the well, and found that the well was octagonal, with gossip engraved on each of the eight faces.

This is a gossip well.

Qiu Ling looked around again, and then lowered her head to look at the borehole.

"When you open the Xuanmen, someone must enter the land of extinction. Brother, I'm right." Qiu Ling raised her head and looked at Qi Xi.

Qi Xi said: "You also know the rules here, this is a sentence that we children will all teach."

"Inside the forbidden area, outsiders who enter must die." Qiu Ling clasped her finger on the side of the well.

"It's not your fault. You have only heard half of what you have heard and seen since you were a child." Qi Xi said, "Inside the forbidden area, outsiders are not allowed to enter. The patriarch can bring people in. To open the Taoist door, someone must come in." Entering the land of extinction, this forbidden land is not a land of extinction."

"Then what is the sacrificial offering?" Qiu Ling only guarded the mouth of the well, her eyes were already red.

"Maybe the old man is scaring you. When did our family have such a bloody incident?"

Qiu Ling moved her fingers, shook her head and said, "I don't believe you."

"I never lie." Qi Xi said, "You have forgotten that when the patriarch enters the forbidden area to be crowned, he will dedicate his life's lies to the ancestors. You are not allowed to lie."

Qin An also felt that Qiu Ling's mood was very wrong, but watching the two brothers and sisters say these words, there was no place to intervene.

Qin An approached He Siming, looked at He Siming strangely by the candlelight, and asked him if he saw anything.

He Siming looked at the mouth of the well and had a little guess in his heart, but it was just a guess.

Qin An then turned to look at the two brothers and sisters.

Qi Xi had already taken out the jade badge he was wearing.

"Do you still remember what I told you? The dead are also alive. There is no real death in this world, let alone the so-called eternal life. Everyone is a running part of this world, and there is always his own Usefulness. Your role is far more than that, and you have to go a long way.”

Qiu Ling's hand was stuffed with a jade tablet by Qi Xiu, Qiu Ling's face changed drastically, and in the next second, Qi Xiu jumped directly into the well.

"Don't!" Qiu Ling grabbed Qi Xi's wrist, and Qiu Ling's body barely held Qi Xi.The others were still watching the excitement of Monk Zhang Er, listening to the brothers and sisters saying things they didn't understand, why would they jump into the well in the next second?

Qin An was the first to run over, and also grabbed Qi Xi and pulled him up: "Don't be impulsive! If you have any problems, tell us, we are all here, there is nothing we can't solve!"

Although Qin An didn't know why he made this jump, he knew that what he did must have something to do with their entry here.

If Qi Xiu was harmed because they came here, Qin An would be restless for the rest of his life!

"This is not impulsive. It was originally what I was destined to do. If human beings want to continue to survive, the things inside are very important. Xiaoling, you don't have to cry. When you find the next patriarch, you can see him again." Me. What my family has guarded for thousands of years will always see the light of day."

"No way!" Qiu Ling firmly grasped Qi Xi's hand with both hands, tears fell down, but she gritted her teeth and said, "Since there is a sacrifice to be made, I can do it too! You know my temper, if you don't come up, I'll go down with you too! I entered here, so I didn't intend to get out alive! You are the patriarch, what would you do without your clan! Who will find the remaining jade tokens!"

Qiu Ling tried to use these to bind Qi Xiu.Qi Xi cared about too many things in her heart, but what Qiu Ling cared about was only Qi Yu in front of her eyes.

Qin An's cold sweat has already broken down. It stands to reason that after the mutation, even if he doesn't have the strength of ten thousand catties, he can still lift things that weigh several thousand catties with confidence.But at this time, there was no way for La Qixiu to come up.

He tried to mutate his body again and again, and his muscles had already torn through the clothes he was wearing inside. With the sound of the clothes being torn, Qi Xi remained motionless.

He Siming also came to help, but the mouth of the well itself is not big, and three people standing by the well, pulling people, is already the limit.The other four people still couldn't figure out the situation, and they couldn't see the situation inside at this time, so they could only follow suit and worry.

"Brother Qin, quickly pull him up!" Bao Xinyu also blushed anxiously.He was obviously fine just now, why did he jump into the well in the blink of an eye?

"Come up!" Qin An gritted his teeth and said.

Qi Yu was still calm, not even showing the slightest difficulty on his face.

"Xiao Ling, remember every word I told you, and take them out. Before the new patriarch appears, you are the patriarch. Every decision you make in the future will have a far-reaching impact. The second ability of Xu card, the dead It's also life, don't forget."

After finishing speaking, Qi Xi left the last smile in this world. At that moment, the whole hand seemed to shrink a bit, and at the same time, it was as slippery as a loach. The three of them held it with all their strength, but Qi Xi still fell into it.

The mouth of the well is deep and dark, and when people fall down, they can no longer be seen.

"Brother!" At that moment, Qiu Ling felt that the world had collapsed.

Qin An hurriedly hugged Qiu Ling, stopping her movement to follow.

"Qiu Ling! Calm down! Don't be impulsive!"

"Let go of me!" Qiu Ling struggled to follow, "What do you know! What do you know! Let go of me, we can't live without my brother, and our family can't live without him! Let me go!"

"We have lost a teammate, you still have to follow!" Qin An couldn't hold Qi Xi down, but holding Qiu Ling couldn't be easier.The body took two steps back, turned around and pushed Qiu Ling hard, Qiu Ling fell to the ground, Bao Xinyu rushed to pull her up.

"He can't die!" Qiu Ling's eyes were bloodshot, and she looked at Qin An fiercely, "Why are you dragging me! I've already fallen!"

"It's because the person fell! Are you going to accompany me?" Qin An's hands were trembling. When he pulled Qixiu just now, he almost exhausted all his strength. Only now did he realize that his force just now was beyond his body. Loaded.

"That's my brother!" Qiu Ling said sadly, "If it was He Siming who fell, I don't believe you would be standing here!"

"If he fell, I don't believe you won't stop me!" Qin An yelled, then took a deep breath, his tone softer, "Think about it, what he said just now! Since he won't He lied and didn't say he was dead, so he probably didn't die! He also said that he would come back, think about it rationally, you know this kind of thing better than us, if you are also irrational, the answer to this question can be found in No more!"

Qiu Ling was slightly stunned, but felt that the jade plate in her hand was hot.

Then, the front metal door opened.

The door is more than two meters high, and the two doors are two meters wide.It looks very thick.Slowly opened, although it was pitch black inside, it carried all the hopes of this world.

Qiu Ling looked at the gate and smiled desperately: "The person is already dead."

Qiu Ling spread her hands and let everyone take a look at the red jade tablet: "Do you remember what I said? When the owner of the jade tablet dies, the jade tablet will burst out with amazing energy, killing everyone around you indiscriminately. All living things. We can't survive."

At that moment, everyone's complexion changed drastically.

"Qiu Ling! Do you know the solution? Since your brother can jump down calmly, he should have thought everything through according to his temper." He Siming asked hurriedly.

Qiu Ling pointed at the opened door: "You'll be fine if you go in. The magnetic field inside can protect you."

Hearing this, Qin An and He Siming immediately pulled Qiu Ling to run through the door.

The jade card flashed a few times, and it seemed that something was going to explode. Qiu Ling's eyes were a little dull, and she let the two of them hold her. When they stepped into the door, the jade card seemed to have some power from the jade The inside of the card surged out.

But in just a split second, that force dissipated feebly.And the fluorescence of the jade tablet also dimmed until it returned to its original appearance.

Or rather, get darker.

This jade tablet is the best proof, its owner is dead, and it has become an ownerless thing.

This happened in just a few minutes.It happened inexplicably, and a person died like this.

Everyone couldn't react.

Bao Xinyu looked at Ke Chenguang: "Uncle Ke."

Ke Chenguang lowered his head, and by the candlelight, he saw Bao Xinyu's face was pale with fright, and the corners of his eyes were wet, and he was about to cry.

He stretched out his hand to hold him in his arms, but he couldn't figure it out either.

Then, there was silence.Qiu Ling needs time to calm down, and others need time to figure it out.

In this way, the atmosphere was deadlocked for 5 minutes.

Qin An said: "You knew the result from the very beginning, right. You started from Zai Tiangui's house. That's why your reactions along the way are so intense, right?"

At this moment, Qiu Ling was already in tears, sitting on the ground, looking up at Qin An, tears were streaming down her face, her face was a little dull.

"I said, I wanted to kill you more than once. What is this world, what is this disaster, what is this human being. Our family has never owed you any love, so why should my brother be sacrificed to this point! Why! I would rather die in battle to deal with those monsters than let my brother die here! But, but..."

Qin An approached, knelt down in front of Qiu Ling, and wanted to reach out to wipe her tears, but raised his hand and hesitated.

"But you came here anyway, didn't you?" It was the first time Qin An spoke to Qiu Ling in such a soft tone, and it was also the first time he saw Qiu Ling like this.

"If it's me, I can ignore it, but that's my brother. How can I hold him back when he so frankly wants to sacrifice himself for the so-called inheritance. How can I!"
