Chapter 1046: Difficult Seed
"Don't be impatient, Master Ruota."
Gu Sanqiu said lazily: "Anger is harmful to the body. You are already old, why don't you understand this truth?"
“Go quickly!”
"Okay, okay, then just pretend I didn't say anything."
Gu Sanqiu looked at Zan Malan and said, "Well, the boss has spoken. Tell me the location."
"Praise Gu Sanqiu, your generosity is beyond Zanmaran's expectations."
A spiritual message decisively entered Gu Sanqiu's mind.
"It's not too far."
After saying goodbye to Zanmalan, Gu Sanqiu arrived at that area not long after, and as expected, he saw a sealing formation that was not too complicated, but full of rock elements.
Simple and crude, if you look at it for a long time you can vaguely hear the dragon's roar, which is indeed the style of Uncle Ruota.
"I want to see how beautiful this place is."
As he stepped into the seal, Gu Sanqiu felt a completely different atmosphere. The sudden change in the environment gave people a very disjointed feeling.
It's like a person diving into the sea to look for treasure, sticking his head out of the water, taking off his oxygen mask and taking deep breaths.
“The air quality here is pretty good.”
Gu Sanqiu was a little surprised: "There isn't even a bit of abyssal power."
However, there seems to be a deeply hidden formation in this medium-sized space, with several dim elemental monuments standing at several key nodes.
"Well, it does look like it's a very old thing."
There are quite a few elemental monuments in the wild, and the degrees of wear and tear are basically different, but at least it can be confirmed that these are things left behind by some ancient civilizations, and can be regarded as some kind of gear parts that use elemental power.
It's not just the elemental monuments, but also the "torches" that can only be ignited by the fire element.
Depending on the regional conditions, these things will have some different regional characteristics.
Nowadays, the rock statues around Qingce Village can get the protection of the Rock King. Although this sounds a bit superstitious, its power is real.
Liyue has mechanical arts passed down from demons and immortals, Mondstadt has created secret mechanisms with the help of the air flow of Thousand Winds, and Inazuma has various devices powered by the element of lightning.
Taking these three as examples, they all actually have the civilizational characteristics of the secular countries in the modern era.
If the civilization of this era dissipates, when the civilization of the next era rises again, these things will also be another form of "elemental monuments".
If there can be another era in this world.
In fact, there is another explanation for the fact that there are so many elemental monuments and torch mechanisms, and their degrees of weathering and wear are different.
That is, the history of these things is quite long, and later generations just followed suit and made these things according to similar specifications to serve their own civilizations.
"Let me see. There shouldn't be any weird order of operation for this thing."
Gu Sanqiu fiddled with it for a long time and finally confirmed that this was just a not-too-simple sealing formation, and there was no underworld setting that required opening the elemental monument in a mysterious order to meet the standards.
"Well, that's good. It prevents us from accidentally opening the door to a new world ."
The only point that needs attention may be what Zhamaran said about the need for "the power and hope of this era."
What this means is that old guys like dad and uncle who are past their expiration date are not included.
This is something that can be easily overlooked.
Gu Sanqiu pressed his left hand on the elemental monument and began to manually inject elemental power. The amount absorbed was even less than the time when he helped Jinmao open the first anchor point.
It’s a bit like a tired person who has taken most of the sleeping pills and who only needs a bed and a pillow to close his eyes and fall asleep peacefully. After falling asleep, he can’t be woken up even by thunder.
In other words, the Elemental Monument is not good, in every sense of the word, and cannot accommodate too much elemental power.
"You are somewhat unworthy of your reputation."
Gu Sanqiu shook his head, and then injected several streams of elemental force into the remaining square monuments.
The light came on and a crackling sound came from underground. An altar that looked quite ancient appeared in front of Gu Sanqiu, with a dried seed placed on it.
"Is this the thing?"
The only thing that can make Uncle Ruota speak must be the ginseng fruit.
Okay, this is actually a joke. Gu Sanqiu just thinks that this thing is at least related to the devil.
The golden light of the sun slowly fell, mainly because they were afraid that if they were not careful, they would use too much force and burn this thing.
The seed lit up slightly, and white light rose up like clouds. In the meantime, there was also flashing colorful light. I don’t know if it represents the seven elemental forces.
Just when Gu Sanqiu thought that this thing should be able to revive successfully, the light on the seed faded, leaving only a few spots of light that turned into hidden lines.
Gu Sanqiu:?
Soon, a faint spiritual will emerged from the seed and floated towards the position of Gu Sanqiu's Dharma Eye between his eyebrows.
The Dharma Eye opened, and the majestic golden light transformed into a divine dragon, staring at this spiritual will.
Ugly rejection, crawl quickly.
His spiritual will was wandering around, as if he didn't have the courage to provoke Gu Sanqiu, and then he fell back into his own "body".
[Not enough, only half successful]
[You are not the one I am waiting for]
Gu Sanqiu:?
What kind of operation is this that is only half successful? Are the requirements for this thing so strict?
Gu Sanqiu thought of his golden-haired brother. If nothing unexpected happened, this seed would definitely be waiting for Kong.
This is the premonition and tacit understanding from brothers.
Or maybe this was some kind of inexplicable trust that Gu Sanqiu had in the Son of Destiny, the protagonist of heaven and earth.
"It's really troublesome. Forget it. Anyway, I just came here to try it out. After I leave, Master Ruo Tuo can't say that I am not doing a good job."
Gu Sanqiu waved his hand, signaling the seed to get out, but he didn't expect the other party to transmit another mental force.
[What is the place beyond the sky?]
?
Gu Sanqiu was surprised: "What are you?"
[Isn’t it wonderful in the world?]
"Don't even think about it. If you have money, power and authority, you can enjoy life anywhere. Others are all the same. Office workers are all fighting for their boss's luxury cars, mansions and beauties."
Gu Sanqiu stared at the seed closely, expecting it to continue to convey its spirit and communicate with him.
But he was somewhat disappointed with subsequent developments, as if he had become somewhat autistic because of the scene he had painted.
The patterns on the seed dimmed, and the elemental monument was activated again, sinking the ancient altar back under the formation.
It seems that I have to wait for the right time and wait for the right person to come and help me escape from the suffering.
"It's inexplicable."
Gu Sanqiu left the place. The two sentences just now almost made him nervous, but in the end it sounded like the meaningless mumbling of a dying person.
Outside the world, ordinary people think of it as a place outside their own country, just a general term.
It was like the first time I came to Liyue. After seeing the prosperity of Liyue Harbor, I was a little confused.
But for some people who have disappeared in historical records, Tianwai is synonymous with poison and apple.
"Wait if you want. Young Master, I'm not interested in guarding you. Is it possible that a fairy will pop out from there?"
On the ground, Zhongli looked at Ruota, whose eyes were filled with golden light.
"how?"
Ruo Tuo shook his head: "No, I didn't find anything. That kid hasn't reached that level yet."
