Infiltrating the world of cultivation

Chapter 113 Where to Come From

The dynasty's decision to release these canine creatures is puzzling. To the three-eyed humans, these were all food; why would they throw away food that was already in their mouths?

However, no one expressed dissatisfaction, because without a dynasty, their situation would probably be even worse.

When the dynasty arrived, everyone had already finished clearing out the spoils of war.

"We come from Zhen'an City and are on our way to the capital. We are passing through this place and would like to ask for lodging for the night."

Wang Chao suddenly had a change of heart. He originally wanted to say that he came from the Great Tang Dynasty in the East and wanted to worship Buddha and seek scriptures, but he managed to hold back.

"@+~@:"

The leader of the three-eyed human race stepped forward and said something that Shi Wen and the others couldn't understand.

However, Wang Chao was slightly taken aback. Had he misheard?

"Brother Chao, stop talking. We can't understand their native language at all, and we don't even know where it's from."

Shi Wen saw the dynasty and wanted to communicate, but fearing he would make a fool of himself, he stopped him in time.

"We're heading to the capital and would like to stay at your place for the night."

This time, Wang Chao spoke in Chinese, because he had actually understood what the three-eyed human leader had said.

Although their accents were a bit strange, Wang Chao understood them. Of course, it could also be a coincidence, so Wang Chao urgently needed to verify it.

"I can only agree if the priest agrees."

The words of the three-eyed human leader once again shocked the dynasty. This time, he was certain that the language spoken by these three-eyed people was indeed Chinese.

Although there were some discrepancies in certain places, the dynasty did indeed understand.

What a coincidence! How could two different worlds produce similar languages? Although both are hieroglyphic civilizations and both experienced monarchies, the similarity of their languages ​​seems too much of a coincidence.

Wang Chao was shocked, but Shi Wen and Sun Juan were even more shocked. They both knew that Wang Chao came from the Han Empire, which was thousands of miles away from the Tang Empire.

They were generally aware of what the dynasty had done after arriving in the Tang Dynasty, but how did the dynasty master this language? These were the natives of the primeval forest, isolated from the world and rarely venturing out.

The three-eyed humans didn't have such complicated thoughts; they assumed that the outside world lived the same way as them.

I wonder if these three-eyed humans would question their existence if they were to experience the prosperity of the outside world.

Following the leader of the three-eyed people, the four arrived at their residence, a large settlement that, from the outside, did not appear as backward as they had imagined.

Furthermore, large-scale civil engineering projects can also be seen during dynasties.

The residential area is surrounded by a 50-meter-deep protective zone. On the surface, there are some thorny roadblocks, but there must be even more protective measures hidden behind the scenes.

The four did not enter the settlement; the leader of the three-eyed people said that they needed the high priest's permission.

Immediately, the four saw the three-eyed humans enter the settlement. They did not pass directly through the fifty-meter-long barrier in front of the settlement, but instead made their way forward through the barrier in a winding and twisting manner. Clearly, there were no places for them to set foot, as they were likely all traps.

The trap that even they were so careful with must have considerable destructive power.

After announcing the disbandment of the hunting party, the leader of the Three-Eyed Humans headed straight for the High Priest.

"Four people have come from outside."

The leader's tone was somewhat somber, and his expression suddenly turned gloomy, completely different from before.

"We've already secluded ourselves deep in the mountains, so why would anyone still covet our property?"

The high priestess was an old woman nearing eighty years old. Her face was full of wrinkles, but her eyes were full of wisdom.

The vertical eye between the eyebrows is closed and blends into the forehead wrinkles, making it difficult to notice without careful observation.

"They seem to have stumbled in by accident, and one of them is a cultivator! That cultivator can even speak our language."

The leader of the three-eyed human race frowned slightly; he also knew the power of those cultivators.

"A cultivator? And they can speak our language?"

The high priestess's gaze was deep as she fell into deep thought. She knew many things that outsiders did not, and there were many secrets that had been passed down orally.

"Bring that cultivator here."

The high priest pondered for a moment, then spoke slowly.

The dynasty outside the protective fence was also pondering why these three-eyed humans could speak the Chinese language.

Although their accents were so strange that the dynasty couldn't even tell which dialect they spoke, the dynasty was certain that they had some kind of connection with Chinese civilization.

Wang Chao opened his smart mobile terminal and began collecting audio of the three-eyed humans speaking, which was then handed over to the intelligent system for decomposition and processing.

Two minutes later, the result astonished the dynasty: Pre-Qin!

This is not the Qin Empire with its three thousand kingdoms, but the ancient Qin Dynasty of China!

In ancient times, people's accents were somewhat different from those of people today, which explains why the dynasty found it strange.

Based on the dynasty, it can be basically determined that the ancestors of the ancient pre-Qin period had some unknown connection with this three-eyed human race.

Having finally found a single clue related to Earth, Wang Chao remained silent, but was plotting something in his mind.

When the dynasty met the high priest of the three-eyed human race, their eyes met, and neither of them spoke.

This old woman was different from the other members of her clan; she exuded an aura of wisdom, especially her eyes, which were as deep as the sea.

Where does your language originate?

Wang Chao and the old woman spoke at the same time, and then both fell silent, staring into each other's eyes as if trying to see through something.

"Nine-story pagoda?"

The dynasty probed, and sure enough, the old woman's expression shifted somewhat.

"Shennong, Gonggong, Zhurong, the Qin Dynasty? What do you know about them?"

Seeing the old woman remain silent, Wang Chao knew that she might have something to consider.

"Cultivators are indeed powerful. Since you can read minds, why bother asking me?"

The old woman sneered, her eyes fixed on her nose, her nose on her mouth, and her mouth on her heart.

"I'm only at the fourth stage of Qi Refining, and I've just begun my cultivation. I don't know the method of mind reading either. Let's be frank and share what we have to say."

Bang!

The dynasty set up a five-element formation around the two, which barely covered them.

"Are you trying to kill us to silence us? We've already gone into seclusion deep in the mountains, what more do you want?"

Wang Chao ignored the old woman's anger and instead activated the smart mobile terminal within his sea of ​​consciousness.

The story begins with the Xia, Shang, and Zhou dynasties and continues until the time travel of the dynasty. The dynasty only recounts major events, and even so, by the time he finishes speaking, it's almost dark.

Wang Chao did not reveal his identity, as if he were talking about something that had nothing to do with him. After speaking, he removed the formation and slowly got up.

"We'll stop here for the night and leave tomorrow."

After the dynasty left the old woman's dwelling, the leader of the three-eyed human race was still guarding the outside.

After arranging for the four to settle down, the leader entered the high priest's room.

"High Priest, is there anything wrong with this person?"

The leader looked grave. He clearly believed that the two had been together for a day, and that something might have happened to the high priest. After all, such things had happened before.

"He seems to have come from the same place as our ancestors. Back then, the King of Qin sent us to find the elixir of immortality, but we never expected to end up in this world."

This world is home to many incredibly powerful beings, which is why we chose to retreat to the deep mountains to avoid danger.

However, he knew more about the Xia, Shang, and Zhou dynasties than I did, and he even talked about things that happened five thousand years later.

It should be noted that our ancestors came to this place only five hundred years ago.

However, what he said sounded too real, and it's undeniable that it was a carefully crafted lie.

The high priest's eyes became somewhat cloudy, and he squinted as if he could see through everything.

"Our ancestors once said that five hundred years from now, the chosen one will descend and guide us on the path ahead."

The leader also knew some secrets. These people had endured too much pressure, but they were the spark and had to struggle to survive.

As long as the flame remains burning, their legacy will never be extinguished.

"Eh!"

The high priest sighed softly, waved her hand, and signaled the leader to leave. There were some things that only she could know, and then they would be passed down by word of mouth.

Wang Chao was alone in his residence. At this moment, he could tell that these people must have some unknown connection with Earth, or more precisely, with China.

They might even be time travelers themselves! All these mysteries can only be solved with the old woman's approval.

Wang Chao believed that the old woman must know something.

"Roar!"

In the still of the night, a mournful screech echoed, accompanied by the clanging of iron chains. The sound was so penetrating that even Wang Chao felt a chill run down his spine.

However, there was no disturbance outside, which clearly indicates that this situation occurs frequently.

Wang Chao clearly remembered that when he mentioned the nine-story pagoda, the old woman's eyes flickered, meaning that she knew of the existence of the nine-story pagoda.

"Nine-story pagoda?"

The high priest sat alone in his residence. The fact that the dynasty knew about the nine-story tower indicated that his identity was not simple. After all, that divine tower did not belong to this world.

Wang Chao remembered that back in the Kunlun Mountains, in the heart of the Nalenggele Gorge, there was a city surrounding the nine-story ancient pagoda. That city would vanish into thin air with the slightest touch.

Clearly, the dynasty wasn't the first to discover the nine-story pagoda. Who else had made contact with it before? Who built a city around the pagoda? And why do these three-eyed humans speak the Chinese language?

Wang Chao felt that the clues were becoming increasingly tangled and he couldn't make sense of them at all. The old woman was the key. As long as he could gain her trust, he would definitely be able to solve these mysteries.

The dynasty still has one major question: if these people really came from Earth, how did they not get discovered by those powerful beings without the protection of the nine-story ancient pagoda?
