Stars fall and locust trees grow

Five square bluestone pillars, about five feet wide and ten feet high, were arranged neatly, like a huge monster, overlooking Li Chi from above.

Li Chi used his luck to dispel the fog, and it could be seen that there were some patterns carved on each pillar.

While stroking the ball of fur, he looked from left to right.

Those reliefs all depict people of different images.

They are a young general in armor holding a long sword, a young girl covering her face with a fan, an ugly puppet holding a small square box, a scholar reading a book, and an indifferent boy holding an umbrella.

The five stone pillars standing here must have a meaning for their existence.

But he has not yet figured out what these patterns are meant to express.

Li Chi collected his spiritual energy, stood in the thick fog that was gathering again, and stroked his chin in thought.

"A young general, a young girl, a puppet, a scholar, a boy..."

"Male, female, neither male nor female, male, male..."

Nothing can be seen from the identity or gender.

Especially the puppet in the middle, which has nothing to do with the other ones.

Li Chi pondered for a while and tried another angle.

"The general holds a sword, the girl holds a fan, the puppet holds a small square box, the scholar is a book, the boy holds an umbrella..."

Sword, fan, box, book, umbrella...

Ok? !

I seem to have heard this group somewhere recently, and it feels particularly familiar.

He recalled what happened after he came back to life and crawled out of the coffin, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

"Fuck!!!"

Aren’t these the five holy artifacts that flew out of the Heavenly Gate on Feitian Peak a thousand years ago? !

An ancient sword, a flying fan, a set of mechanism boxes, a wordless book and a green umbrella!

Damn it! Why are these reliefs related to the holy vessels in this seal? !

Li Chi pondered for a moment and vaguely sensed a sense of conspiracy.

The upper plane first dropped five holy artifacts, and then a thousand years later dropped a sealed secret realm related to the holy artifacts. It was obvious that it was conveying something.

What secrets are hidden in these five holy artifacts? !

Who do they want to pass this message to? !

Also, why did that strange Du Heng encourage others to enter the seal? !

Li Chi felt that there must be a certain connection between them.

The person who received the message should be among those who entered the seal, and Du Heng is the most suspicious.

But, what exactly is the message they are conveying?

Li Chi stuffed a pill into his mouth, then stood on the blood python's head and observed the raised patterns closely.

It's just ordinary and nothing special can be seen.

He tried to use his spiritual sense to scan the five stone pillars one by one, and sure enough, strange and complicated patterns appeared on those holy objects.

The lines look like inscriptions or talismans.

It must be you.

"Whether it's useful or not, it's better to write it down first."

Li Chi rummaged through his storage ring, but found neither pen nor paper.

However, the back of the Spirit Realm map can be used temporarily, as for the pen...

He looked around and found that there was indeed nothing useful, so he had to harden his heart and bite his finger.

The patterns on those holy artifacts were indeed strange. Li Chi copied them exactly, and every time he finished drawing a stroke, the pattern disappeared.

Li Chi's spiritual awareness was not strong enough to begin with, and seeing those lines made him dizzy and his stomach churned.

Moreover, the blood on the fingers dried up quickly.

So he could only take the pills, retch, draw lines, and bite his five fingers in turn.

Damn! My hands hurt! I feel dizzy!

Ahhhhh!

Li Chi looked at his five swollen and rotten fingers and began to ask himself: Wasn't I just thinking about surviving well at that time? Why did I suddenly become so diligent now? !

What about my great dream of becoming a salted fish?

The rapid consumption of his spiritual power almost made Li Chi faint several times. By the time he finally drew all five lines, blood had already started to spurt out of his mouth.

The blood python placed him gently on the ground and looked down at him quietly, while the fur ball stepped on his belly anxiously.

He didn't know if it was because of Maoqiu's assist, but Li Chi vomited even more happily, and his consciousness gradually became a little blurred, so much so that when Hu Di's familiar and annoying voice sounded above his head, he thought he was hallucinating.

"Oh my! Who is this?" Hu Di lowered his head, "I just haven't seen him for a while, how come he looks so miserable?"

"It looks like it might happen at any moment!"

Li Chi tried hard to open his eyelids, and was met with a heartless face. He saw the other party's lips move again: "Oh my! Still alive?!"

Li Chi: "Can't you just help me up first?!"

There is still hope for me.

Hu Di helped him up with a smile, gave him some luck, and continued to mutter: "Oh my! What on earth did you just do? How did your consciousness get so badly damaged?!"

Li Chi: “Painting.”

"Wow! What kind of painting is so fierce?" Hu Di turned his head and winked, "Is it one of those indescribable pictures?"

Li Chi: “???”

Are you fucking crazy?!

After lying on the ground for a while, the top-grade elixir in his body began to take effect, and Li Chi finally felt much better.

"By the way! How did you find me?!" He wiped the blood off his body. The large patch on his chest looked somewhat shocking.

Hu Di: "Of course it depends on fate!"

"I never thought that among all the people in this world, only the two of us are so destined to be together!"

It's fucking fate.

We were assigned to the same place when we entered the secret realm, and we were the first to meet when we entered the seal.

It's simply a crime.

Hu Di continued to chatter: "Why don't we worship heaven and earth after we get out? How about I be your big brother and you be my little brother?"

Taking advantage of me?! You have a nice idea.

Also, that’s called sworn brotherhood!

Li Chi: "No! Get out!"

“Oh my! You actually have the energy to curse!” Li Chi waved his fan and looked him over carefully. “Now that you’ve almost recovered, let’s go find those two chief babies first!”

"After all, we came here together."

Can't you see that you are quite humane?

Li Chi: "Do you know where they are?"

Hu Di chuckled: "Of course!"

"How did you know?"

"Oh! I put a tracking charm on each of you before you came in."

Li Chi: “???”

So you just used a fucking talisman to find me?!

Then what the hell are you talking about fate with me?

On the other side of the seal, the fog is still treacherous.

The air was filled with a strong smell of blood and the ground was covered with bloodstains.

The dozen or so survivors were gathered together.

"The inner elixir is destroyed, and the lungs and bones are shattered." Gu Chuanlin said indifferently, "They are beyond saving."

Being stepped on directly by the huge monster that fell from the sky, there was no possibility of survival.

Hu Tian stood beside Gu Chuanlin with the same worried look on his face.

The thick fog severely affected their vision. Here, they could only rely on their spiritual sense to sense the direction and identify danger, so they suffered great losses at the moment.

Moreover, the monster seemed to enjoy teasing them.

After each successful attack, it would let them run away, and then chase them and launch a surprise attack.

They have been resting here for nearly a quarter of an hour.

According to the rules just summarized, the monster must be hiding nearby at this moment.

"Ow..."

Sure enough, a shocking roar suddenly broke the silence, shocking everyone in the seal.
