Ancient Gene [End Times]

Qiu Ling's emotions were close to collapse, or her mentality had completely collapsed.

"Is there really no room for this matter?" Qin An remembered, Qi Xi jumped down, and the door opened.

Qiu Ling moved her lips and smiled sadly: "Do you really think that I went to Tibet just to have fun? Do you think it was really a coincidence that I met you? !I have made many assumptions and efforts, but the direction of my efforts is always wrong in the end.

I thought that as long as I guide you to discover the jade tokens and look for more jade tokens in advance, maybe you won’t be able to enter here.I thought you were strong enough to stop this!But in the end I realized that, in fact, he had foreseen all this a long time ago. Every step I tried was just an ant shaking the tree! "

They have always known that Qiu Ling has a heavy heart, but who would have thought that they were in this scheme when they first met.

It can also be seen how much Qiu Ling doesn't want Qi Yu to die, how much she wants to change these things.

Tiangui bowed his head and said to Batian: "Why do you think the door will open when people jump off?"

Tiangui lowered his voice very low, and Qiu Ling could already hear it.

"I have read the mechanism spectrum in the family. There is a kind of mechanism that is activated by gravity." Qiu Ling said, "I think there is a trigger mechanism in that well. When people jump in and the mechanism is activated, the door will open. Open."

That's why it is said that a sacrifice is required to open this door.The well is bottomless, and only one person can pass through it. If a person jumps down and disappears, how can he come up.

Qiu Ling said again: "If this kind of mechanism is really used here, then this door will still be closed for a year or so at most."

Just as Qin An opened his mouth to ask, he suddenly thought of a terrifying possibility.

Sure enough, Qiu Ling's tears fell again: "When a person's flesh and blood fester and only bones are left, the weight will lighten, and the trigger mechanism will return to its place, and this place will be closed. In other words. From that day on, use it up to three times. At that time, this door will be permanently opened. After the air flows through, the contents inside will disappear without a trace within ten years. This is the last bottom line left by the ancestors to human beings, but only This is the only chance left."

"Then we can't kill the mutated animal and throw it away?" Bao Xinyu gasped.

Every time it is opened, a living person must be sacrificed. This rule is too terrifying.

"How could the ancestors of this family not have thought of this?" He Siming sighed, "I think this is a rule passed down from generation to generation by the patriarch, and they will consciously abide by it."

Qiu Ling said: "I only now understand what my brother said. There are deviations in the words about the sacrifice of strangers. The original words should be that outsiders are not allowed to enter this forbidden area unless the patriarch brings people in. If outsiders are brought in, the patriarch will die , as a sacrifice. I don’t know which generation of ancestors handed down the dirty words, but every word, our descendants and grandchildren must abide by it. No one has ever thought about what is wrong with these words. It’s ridiculous, the whole family, I have lived in such shackles for thousands of years."

Qiu Ling took a deep breath and wiped away her tears.He reached out his hand to Qin An, motioning for him to pull her up.

Qin An stretched out his hand and pulled Qiu Ling up.Qiu Ling lit her own candle, adding a light source to the room.

"Aren't you going to record what's inside? Move quickly. I can't guarantee that I can take you out without my brother leading the way back."

Qiu Ling, who was still in a breakdown just now, managed to calm down in a few words. This sudden change made Qin An and He Siming look at each other, both a little surprised.

Holding a candle in her hand, Qiu Ling looked at the things painted on the wall, stroked every word on it, and said, "On the left and in front, there are things you want, and you can take the Bastard to record them."

Tian Gui nodded to Xiao Hai, and took him to record with Batian in his arms.

Qin An asked He Siming to follow Tiangui, and he was not at ease with Qiu Ling.Looking at Qiu Ling's desperate appearance just now, there is no guarantee that she will not be hurt to the extreme and commit suicide.Because everyone expresses despair differently.There are really some people who look normal and even talk and laugh when they are most collapsed and give up all hope of life.

Ke Chenguang took Bao Xinyu to look around, and chose to wait where he was.The Xuanmen here was completely closed before, so there was no danger of mutated animals.There may be mutated animals outside.Just in case, people are still needed here.

Qin An followed Qiu Ling without saying a word, just watching Qiu Ling focus on the things carved on the wall.Some of them are pictures, some are text.Some places are like paintings and words.Qin An couldn't understand these, so he could only focus on Qiu Ling.

"What's written here is the way to go out." Qiu Ling knew that Qin An was standing behind her, looking at everything recorded on the wall, and said: "Most of the things here are very obscure to me, but simply going out If so, it's fine."

"It's good if we can go out." Qin An said, "As long as we can go out with what we need, we won't come in vain this time."

"Yeah, I have to get something." Qiu Ling turned her head and looked around.

Inside, it is actually a rectangular upside-down bowl-shaped space.It's just that the light source in front of them is dim, and even if everyone mutates their eyes, they can't see the whole picture clearly.

Qin An didn't know what to say, so he didn't speak, and continued to follow.

"There are records in the family classics I read before. It records the true meaning of all things and all living beings in this world. It is the source of all mysteries in the world. It's just that I am not a smart person after all, and I can't see what is in it."

"According to what they said before, here, it seems that even the patriarch can't fully understand it."

"Maybe, superhumans can do it. But I don't think they are as smart as my brother." Qiu Ling said, "Everything in the post-apocalyptic world, including your coming here, is just doing your best and obeying the destiny. What we have to do is to keep Humans, until the last of them are left. This is the imprint of each race from birth."

"We are all waiting for the result." Qin An said.

"I know, you don't trust me, right?" Qiu Ling turned half of her body and looked at Qin An, "You are afraid that I will commit suicide."

Qin An didn't answer her, but just stood beside Qiu Ling.

Qiu Ling still had the same smile, but it was mixed with strong bitterness.

"If you didn't stop me just now, I would have jumped. I won't now. It's like my brother abides by the rules left by his ancestors. If the ancestors want him to die, he will die. I am the same. He called If I live, I will live. Not only to live, but also to complete all the things he did not complete when he was alive!"

Qiu Ling is much stronger than Qin An imagined.At least if Qin An had lost He Siming, he would not have cheered up so quickly, and might even have left with him.This doesn't mean that Qiu Ling doesn't have deep feelings for Qi Xiu, it can only be said that the way of love is different.

Qiu Ling took a deep breath, swallowed the bitterness, and forced a smile: "I really want to cry now, maybe after crying, it won't be so uncomfortable. It's just not yet. When we get out Here, send you away, I can have a little time."

"You..." Hearing what she meant, Qin An didn't plan to go to Beijing together.

"I'll stay. In the whole family, I'm the only one who has read those classics and been here again. Brother, he let me temporarily manage the family for his reasons. I will stay in the family forever, waiting for the next patriarch Birth. I told you that the new patriarch is most likely to be reincarnated among the children of the old patriarch, but before my brother has time to leave a child, the next patriarch will be born in the clan. In other words, my oldest The task is to give birth within the clan. It is interesting to say that the birth of children in our clan may be related to all mankind in the future."

Qiu Ling's words are somewhat humorous, but they are true.The role of the patriarch is not only to command the whole clan, but also to find the jade token as quickly as possible.

It is clear now that in the future, it may be necessary to collect all the 12 yuan jade tokens in order to gain more initiative, or fundamentally solve the end-time disaster.

"Tell me, how long will it take for us to collect all these 12 yuan jade tokens?" Qin An said.

"No one knows. Although after the troubled times, the jade tokens will react and attract people who can establish a relationship. But for those jade tokens that have been sleeping for a long time, they may not be found in this lifetime. Collect The jade card against monsters is just one of countless ways. It’s just that this way will be more effective.”

"That is to say, everything we do now actually contains various uncertainties, doesn't it?" Qin An frowned.

Qiu Ling nodded: "I said just now, do your best and obey the destiny."

After such a call, Qin An also felt powerless.

At this time, the sound of fighting appeared at the entrance.

Qin An's voice raised a little: "What's wrong?"

Bao Xinyu hurriedly responded: "There are monsters! But don't worry, they are not big, we can solve them!"

Qin An breathed a sigh of relief: "If you meet a big monster or there are a lot of monsters, remember to call me, don't hold back!"

"rest assured."

Qin An turned back to Qiu Ling strangely and said, "I didn't meet them when I just came here, but now there are more of them."

"Because of my brother's jade tablet. I told you that the unowned jade tablet is very attractive to mutated animals, which is far beyond what humans can match. Now, with this jade tablet as the center, the mutation of a few kilometers around Animals will attack here frantically, unless they establish contact with someone who can match them now. But where can they find someone who can establish contact with them now." Qiu Ling took out Qi Xiu's jade tablet , touched the smooth jade body, and sighed.

"Is this piece of jade passed down from generation to generation in your family?"

"Yes and no." Qiu Ling said, "This piece of jade is indeed inherited from the ancestors, but my brother is not the real owner of this piece of jade. However, all the previous patriarchs have this ability and can establish a connection with any jade tablet."

"Does that mean that the person who can establish contact with this jade tablet is still alive?" Qin An became more energetic.

Qiu Ling's eyes dimmed: "Maybe. But this jade tablet cannot easily appear in front of people. Its ability is nothing else, it can take the life of any creature! Don't say it is a person with a bad mind, even if it is a different person. , can you guarantee that every decision you make is rational? This is why this piece of jade has been left behind for generations. Moreover, the jade card is not only for establishing a relationship, if you swallow it, you can also Obtain a part of the jade card ability. Therefore, this piece of jade must remain in the clan, and we will see the situation later."

Qin An understood what Qiu Ling said, nodded and said: "After we go out for a while, I think each of us should take a closer look at this jade tablet. If the person who can establish contact with it happens to be one of our own, it will be much more convenient. If no one , It’s good to stay here. It’s just that this jade card can attract mutated animals to attack. There are not many people in the clan now, so will there be troublesome troubles?”

"There have always been troubles, and this jade card is not bad. We also have ways to deal with these monsters. Don't worry about that."

Qiu Ling was still looking at the things recorded on the wall, suddenly frowned, walked closer, and read the above words again in words that Qin An could not understand.

Qin An asked: "What's wrong?"

Qiu Ling shook her head lightly: "I'm not sure. I just feel that these words are a bit abrupt here."

Qin An couldn't understand this, Qiu Ling couldn't explain it, and it was even more impossible for Qin An to understand it.

Qiu Ling continued to read, and at this time Tiangui and the others had already recovered.

"The recording is complete. Let's go out now?"

"Give me a few minutes." Qiu Ling pinched her thumb between her four fingers to calculate something, and then took out the compass in her pocket. Finally, she still couldn't figure it out. She squatted down, put the candle on the ground, and put her fingers on the ground. scratched something.

He Siming went to the door to support Ke Chenguang and the others. The others all looked at Qiuling intently, not understanding what she had discovered.

Five or six minutes passed like this before Qiu Ling let out a long breath.

"Qin An." Qiu Ling said.

"Ok?"

"Tell me, how many jade cards do we have now?" Qiu Ling asked.

Qin An thought about it carefully: "If you count the split sub-cards and Xu cards, there are seven cards."

"No." Qiu Ling frowned, "Based on the current conditions, it should be eight. We have an eighth jade card, but we don't know it."

It is too contradictory to say this sentence, since they have it, how could they not know?

If they don't know, when did they have it?

"How did you figure it out?" Qin An asked.

Qiu Ling pointed to the bible-like scribbles and paintings on the wall: "You should have learned equations, there is an algorithm recorded on it, you can understand it as a ready-made equation, we only need to convert the existing Substituting the conditions into it, you can calculate some results. But I just calculated three times, and the number of our jade cards should be eight. We only know seven. "

Tian Gui's eyes moved slightly, seeing them anxious about this, and after doing some psychological training, he decided to ask: "Is there a jade card that can store things?"

Qiu Ling immediately said: "It is the last jade card, the Hai card. It is a spatial jade card, which contains a small world, and can indeed store things."

Tian Gui reached into his chest and took out a jade pendant: "This jade of mine has similar abilities. But it is completely different from the jade token."

Everyone was startled, Qiu Ling stood up and went over, took the jade pendant from Tian Gui, and shined a light on the candle.

"No, the jade plaque can't be like this. Your jade is indeed different, but it's still far from the jade plaque."

Tiangui took the jade pendant back to his chest: "Then I don't know either."

"There are many treasures that have been handed down to the present in this world. You are one of them. There are sporadic pieces of jade itself. Although it is rare, it is not unique. Besides, since you can carry this piece of jade with you, it is very likely that someone passed it on to you. Yours. The next owner of the jade tablet is random, there is no such thing as a coincidence."

"My piece of jade is inherited from my father, He Yang, and it can be used by every generation. It is obviously different from the conditions of the jade badge."

Tian Gui turned his head and saw that Qin An was frowning but looking at him with a smile.That smile is a bit strange, embarrassing and wanting to laugh, it can definitely be used as a meme when it is photographed.

"What?" Tiangui laughed directly.

"It's hidden deep enough." Qin An also didn't know whether to laugh or cry.But also understandable.If he had such a treasure, he would only let He Siming know about it, and definitely not a third person.

But now that Tiangui can say such a hole card, it also means that Tiangui absolutely trusts them.

"No wonder you always found good things along the way." Thinking about it, along the way before, it was always the ghosts who were lucky. Most of what they lacked and wanted. When everyone went out to find supplies, most of them were found by the ghosts. .

Tiangui smiled wryly: "That's something I can't help. My comrades-in-arms have been together for so many years, and I didn't tell them. It's just that there is a jade card that is worth more than mine now, so it's okay to say it. God knows I'm eating in a space. How uncomfortable it feels to have to work hard to eat."

Don't think about it if you don't have it, the situation of Tiangui is completely guarding a mountain of delicacies, but it can only eat bran and swallow vegetables.God knows how much patience it takes to do it.

"Didn't steal it?" Qin An looked at him incredulously.

"Am I a person who eats alone?" Tian Gui raised a hand, and in a blink of an eye, there was an extra sausage in his hand. Tian Gui handed the sausage to Qin An, "Here."

Qin An hesitated for a moment, took it over, but did not rush to open it.

"I don't eat alone."

Tian Gui took out seven more identical ones and handed them to Qiu Ling first.

Although Qiu Ling knew the concept of heavenly spirits and earthly treasures, this was the first time she saw such a miraculous scene of holding things with empty hands.After being stunned for a while, he took it and bit open the package: "It won't expire."

"The time in the space is stopped, and I'm not afraid of leaving it for hundreds of years." Tiangui said, "I still have ready-made food that was made hundreds of years ago, and I don't want to eat it."

"Then how about pretending to go in?" Qiu Ling smelled the aroma of the sausage, took a bite, and the taste was already a little strange.

"I will die." Tian Gui said, "I have never pretended to be a human being, but I have tried small animals. There are no exceptions."

Qin An came to a sudden: "Then you can put the mutated animal in it when you are fighting! After throwing it out, it will die."

"Impossible." Qiu Ling said, "No matter what kind of treasure it is, the drive is similar to that of a jade tablet. Basically, it is inseparable from physical strength and energy. It's like I can't immediately make a long-lived mutant animal As old as death, he can't fit too big things in one go."

Tiangui nodded and said: "That's right, I did several experiments when I first got this, if I put too many things in one time, I will not be able to bear it. Usually, I will meet many mutant animals during the battle, even if it is just the largest I might not be able to get out with the rest of my physical strength. If the target is particularly large, I may be unconscious the moment I put it in."

Xiao Hai listened for a long while before he said: "That's why you were so confident in facing that bomb at Robert's place?"

Tian Gui was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Xiao Hai to think of this.After recalling it, Tian Gui nodded and said: "I really had this idea at the time. With my full speed after mutating, I was able to put that bomb into the space at the moment of bomb bomb. Inside the space The time of the explosion is absolutely static, even if the explosion is halfway through, it will only freeze at the moment of the explosion in the space. As long as I don’t take it out, it can’t hurt anyone.”

That's why Tian Gui dared to challenge Robert through the screen at that time.For Sky Ghost, the worst result would be to expose his space.But in this world, as long as you are strong enough, you are not afraid of being robbed by others.No matter how bad it was, Lin Nuan was still behind him.Even if the officials want it, they have to think about it.

At that time, Tiangui still doesn't mind moving some things for the government.The premise is that the jade badge is known to the public.If this secret has been kept, Tian Gui is still more willing to continue to hide it.

Divide the sausages and walk towards the exit one by one.

Qin An stood in front of the three of them at the door, giving them a chance to rest.Tiangui passed them the sausages.

"Where did it come from?" He Siming's attention was always on the mutated animals outside, and he didn't hear what was said here.

"I have a storage space, inside the space. Let's go out first." The sky ghost came to Qin An's side and dealt with the mutated animals together.

I never met them when I came here, but now there are groups of mutated animals.Qin An wondered if the jade cards had GPS to locate them, and they were really accurate.

"Qiu Ling, show me the way!" Qin An turned to Qiu Ling.

"Go to the left and take a shortcut." Qiu Ling followed behind them, letting them open the way and calculating the distance ahead by herself.

"Why did you walk so far when you came here?" Qin An asked.

"Going in is different from going out, and the way to go and the method of calculation are also different," Qiu Ling said.

Move forward a few steps, and you will reach the edge of the well.Qiu Ling took a deep look at the mouth of the well.

He Siming noticed her movements, and said in a low voice, "It's okay to wait here for a while, these mutated animals can't do any harm."

Qiu Ling shook her head: "Let's go, don't waste time."

He Siming heard it in a daze, Qiu Ling's words choked up a little.

Although Qiu Ling has selfish intentions, she has never been a person who delays the overall situation for her own selfishness.Selfish yet great, such a contradiction.

Perhaps, it is understandable why Qi Yu handed over the family to Qiu Ling, this is definitely a well-thought-out decision.

At least Qiu Ling is a very strong person.
