Vol 15 Chapter 28: : Taiguli civilization, the eye of the prophet

"Extract the bones from reason and reality
After being executed, scream for the madness of this world
Wake up in a nightmare that never ends
An amusement show full of conspiracies
I will be your death row
Nothing except the blood on the hands
Trapped in this paradise
I want you to bleed like me
So let me be your death row
Venom full of blood
Trapped in this paradise
I want you to bleed like me! "
In the wilderness early in the morning, a specially reinforced and refitted sturdy off-road vehicle galloped on the dirt road.
Exciting heavy metal music was played and sung endlessly. Vicky liked it, and Kidman didn’t hate it. Zhu Peng sat alone in the spacious back seat of the off-road vehicle. He flipped through books about Sodaro Forest. The strange legend of the crystal skull:
Some people say it is a miracle of ancient civilization; some people say it is a fake polished by modern technology, the biggest lie of this century; some people say it is a of salvation, which can save the world from being destroyed before the end... …
Zhu Peng flips through books very fast. He looks at dozens of lines at a glance, and he never forgets his eyes. After a book is put down, he will almost never pick it up and read it again. Therefore, after this journey, as time goes by, he The books stacked next to him are already thick and half a person high.
"Kino, is there any gain?" Kidman asked while sitting in the passenger seat, turning her head.
"Most of the contents written in these books are hearsay content, but in terms of basic division, the crystal skull seems to be the most powerful in the three aspects of calculation, prediction, and resurrection of the dead. Even if it is a legend, there must be a relevant basis. Yes, the civilization inheritance of the decimated Taiguli is also closely related to these three aspects." Zhu Peng closed all the books, slightly closed his eyes and raised his head, and began to comb through his thoughts.
The wizard who majored in virtual brains is best at this aspect. At this moment, Zhu Peng seems to be a terminal processor in the center of a huge database, abandoning all his own emotional calculations, and completely based on the current situation with absolute reason and supreme perspective. There are data to deduce the future. This is also the origin of this set of meditational ideas for predicting the future. Simple understanding... is scientific fortune telling, based on all known information, to deduce a certain possibility of future development, that is, trend computing.
Take the Sino-Japanese War as an example. At the beginning of the war, the Western countries believed that China, which had already carried out drastic reforms, had won. Because of the national strengths of the two sides, the gap in war potential was unreasonable, but the Sino-Japanese war really fought. At that time, the semi-colonial and semi-feudal China was defeated by the Japanese at a speed that stunned the Western powers.
This is the fragility of feudal farming civilization in the face of modern industrial civilization, and the gap in rank.
However, in the end, China won the final victory as the Western countries initially thought. This is the so-called trend calculation.
On both sides’ gambling table, Japan has 70 million chips and China has 400 million chips. No matter how clever the Japanese’s game skills, China’s big fat man loses and then presses, loses again. Overwhelmingly, as long as he wins, Japan will spit out the advantages it had previously taken, and even the profits.
Because the big fat man on the opposite side pressed it and refused to let it get off the table easily.
Therefore, after the war, China did not want Japan's war reparations at all. Although that sum of money was large, it was dead money. China wanted Japan's interest-free loans and technical assistance.
Technical assistance is the key to turning dead money into living money. Interest-free loans tie Japan to the chariot of China’s economic development... If you want me to pay back this money, don’t focus on technology. Manipulating aid in aid, to a certain extent, is the same reason the founding leaders used absolute reason and supreme perspective to deduce the future.
It would be nice to ask for a large sum of war indemnities, but that money will not save China. It will be the real salvation plan for this country to have modern technology and industrial foundation as soon as possible. As for the interest-free loan, I will not repay it. Besides, even if it is repaid, the interest-free loan, 10,000 yuan 40 years ago, is the same as the current 10,000 yuan?
Besides, how can I easily repay you the money I borrowed with my ability? You have to go back by your ability.
Just imagine, if China was defeated that year, Japan would still provide large interest-free loans and technical assistance?
After all, this is a cruel world that speaks with power, the past, present, and even the future has never changed.
At dusk that same day, Zhu Peng met with Miss Milu, the client of this mission. The three of them lived together in the town of Stein next to the Sodalo Forest, almost listening to the Taigul people in the Sodalo Forest. The horror legend grew up little by little, and that is why Dalter, the younger brother of Miss Miru, had the idea of ​​exploring this ancient forest. Then he confirmed the horror of this forest.
"Hello, Mr. Konstantin Chino, you have always been the idol that my brother admires most. May I ask, shall we enter the Sodalo Forest now?" Milu is a man with black-rimmed glasses, although not beautiful but The girl who appeared very intellectual, she seemed a little excited to shake hands with Zhu Peng.
Zhu Peng noticed that the girl was wearing an operational uniform, and she seemed to be ready to enter the forest at any time.
"I understand the urgency of you and your family, but on the one hand, my assistants are already tired, and on the other hand, I also need to conduct some preliminary investigations... Two weeks have passed, so take another day for us to have Better preparation, I think it’s worth it.

"...Okay, sir, you are the most professional, I listen to you." After hearing this, the girl looked a little depressed, but she still gritted her teeth and agreed with Zhu Peng's statement.
"Kiman, you go to the client's house and check Darter's room to see if there are any clues left. Vicki, you go to hire the best forest guide or hunter in the town and explain the situation to the other party. The commission may as well be raised. One point." After gaining the client's understanding, Zhu Peng assigned a part of work for both Kidman and Vitch, while he himself went to Sodalor Forest alone with a burning crossbow.
Backed by mountains and mountains, and by the sea, this small town relies on the Sodalo Forest. There are actually a lot of loggers and hunters. If the scope of work is only on the periphery, there will be no problems.
The virgin forest in front of us is too vast and vast, and the civilization remains of the Taiguli people are in the deepest core of this forest.
Snapped!
Shooting a fat hare with one shot, Zhu Peng retracted the revolver, walked over and took some hare blood in his palm, and then poured low-level holy water to dilute it. The two blended and blended peacefully, without a strong reaction.
"Are you here to hunt deer? If so, then you have to walk inside again. I am the best local hunter, Gil Kant, and I am very happy to see you." Zhu Peng observed the Sodalo Forest At that time, a sturdy middle-aged man wearing a gray vest and silver hair turned out from the depths of the forest.
He walked to the front with a double-barreled shotgun in both hands, admired Zhu Peng's marksmanship, and then stretched out his palm to shake his hand.
It was also at this time that Vikki trot over from the direction of the town. He was a little lame but not obvious at this time. The increasing strength and pace of his body made up for the defect.
"Teacher, Jill Kant, the best hunter in town, went hunting today. Should we hire someone else or wait another day?"
"No need, they have already delivered the goods." Zhu Peng said as he looked at Jill Kant who was holding the double-barreled shotgun.
…………
At the client's house that evening.
Zhu Peng's palm burned with a fierce fire, and then he "pierced" it into Veitch's thigh. The bone spurs disappeared wherever he went, and his power almost recast the juvenile thigh bone.
After the completion, his palm showed a soft light, and with the holy water healed Vitch, and quickly completed this simple operation.
"Try it, how do you feel." Zhu Peng said after he stopped.
While Vikki spit out the biting glue stick, he got up and walked around the house with a look of sweat and excitement.
"Teacher, it's completely healed, my legs are completely healed!"
"...If it weren't for this mission to be very dangerous, I would never heal this leg for you. During your period of disability, your level of hard work in cultivation has increased by 20% compared to the past, especially for yourself. If you can continue to exercise your legs, if you can continue to heal your legs after many years, your leg work can be extremely good, but you can’t take care of it for the time being." If you lose your life, you will inevitably look stupid.
"Teacher, will this task be difficult?" Weiqi asked Zhu Peng with a solemn expression.
"The Taiguli people in their heyday had extremely high civilization achievements in the feudal era. Their calendar and astronomical system have been amazingly accurate so far. They are a race with a population of one million... The time is completely destroyed, how do you think the power to destroy it has reached?" At this point, Zhu Peng sneered.
"But because of this, it seems very interesting."
The next day, a group of people purchasing many forest equipment under the guidance of the jungle hunter Jill entered the Sodalo Forest.
Jill Kant is a widower who lost his wife and childless in his middle age. He is a hunting and adventurous person. Once people are interested in his work, the depth of their studies is often incomparable to ordinary people.
That’s why Jill can become the strongest hunter in the town. Every year, just by taking tourists into the forest to hunt deer, he can spend a leisurely time with food and clothing, but this time his hunting goals have changed, from deer hunting to Ghost hunting. Of course, Zhu Peng's remuneration was really generous.
In the dense and humid dense forest environment, a group of seven people moved forward slowly.
Zhu Peng, the guide Jill Kant, and Milu's siblings. Among them, Miss Milu's younger brother and sister were all underage, but they insisted that they died together. Zhu Peng tilted his head and chose to let him go.
Jill Kant walked in the forefront, then Kidman and Vicki, then Milu's three brothers, and finally Zhu Peng wearing a trench coat and a burning crossbow.
The first and mid-term of the journey was still very peaceful. Gil Kant, the strongest ground-headed snake, saved many tedious and small troubles, but when he arrived at the target two days later and found the tent set up by Dalter, the situation gradually became weird stand up.
"It's not like the scene of a mountain bear attack. It's too clean. It's not winter. If it's a mountain bear, it won't drag all the corpses away." Wild beasts full of aggressive mating period will indeed attack the camp of tourists. , But under the premise of adequate food, most beasts will not eat a lot of human flesh, unless there is a very lack of salt, otherwise the excessive bio-accumulation in the human body will discourage the beasts.
"There is no trace of the food that has been placed clearly, and the property in the tent has not been taken away. The other party came purely to kill and hunt...the possibility of being a monster is already very high."
In the end, before the two words "high" Kimman said, Zhu Peng suddenly drew out his revolver and fired at the dense forest.
Snap, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, when the six-round revolver hit the third one, the rush of running among the trees was somewhat faintly revealed.
It's just that his running speed is extremely fast. With Zhu Peng's marksmanship at this time, he still only staggered at the fifth shot. The sixth shot was sure to hit the opponent's back, and the other four bullets were all empty.
"Don't chase." At this time, both Kidman and Weiqi pulled out their guns, but Zhu Peng stopped them.
He himself moved over and poured some low-level holy water into the blood from the opponent after being shot. The pale golden solution reacted violently with the black-red blood water, and the holy water suddenly turned into sulfuric acid. Mo at the same time smoked white smoke.
"Vicci then, all of you are on guard here, and don't disperse and leave without lethal." Throwing the burning crossbow behind him to Vicci, he has more time to practice crossbow art than Kidman or this kid. At the same time, Zhu Peng cast a spell to summon the King Kong Great Ape to protect everyone, while he himself followed the Scarlet Fire Dog that had just been summoned to chase and kill the monster that was running away with blood and breath.
In the dense forest, Zhu Peng carried a scimitar and chased him like flying for more than 20 minutes. As a result, he found an elk with a piece of flesh pierced on its horn and a claw on its on the edge of a stream.
At this time, the elk was too tired to run. Zhu Peng went up and took the piece of flesh and blood that the monster had dug from his body from its horns. He did not let the Scarlet Fire Dog smell it anymore, but did so. The medium activated the power of the destiny card, and the confused memory suddenly flooded into my mind again:
Gorgeous and magnificent forest buildings, splendid and splendid civilized settlements, noble and sacred high priests in red... Then the camera turned sharply, panicked adults, the doomsday prophecies they were talking about, crazy high priests and red-eyed religions Warriors, a picture of blood, like bones piled up and burned on a hill, on the stone tower, the sacred crystal skull gleams with stern blood, and the high priest standing on the mountain corpse of the tribe laughs wildly until he He was also enveloped and swallowed by the light.
As the power of fate dissipated, the flesh and blood of the monster in Zhu Peng's hand turned into something like ashes, and then he lifted it away.
Now the power of destiny is extremely precious, if it is not important enough, Zhu Peng would not be willing to use it at all, but the religious artifacts sacrificed with the lives and blood of millions of people can bear it, it means that at least it is an epic demigod and is worthy of him. A little waste.
When Zhu Peng once again returned to his previous camp, the scene was in a mess. The King Kong Great Ape had been attacked and dissipated. Almost everyone on the scene suffered more or less injuries, but fortunately they were all injured. It's not heavy. When they saw Zhu Peng walking out of the dense forest with a machete, everyone took a long breath.
"Originally, I planned to go to Gaotan City to mix with Mr. Konstantin Chino after finishing this ticket. Now it seems that the demon hunter’s food is really not tasty. I still act honestly in my hometown. My guide.
Jill Kant suffered a paw on his back, and his injury was not light, but after being washed with holy water and bandaged, there was no problem in his actions. At this time, he was talking and laughing, and his mood was actually more exciting.
"Teacher, after you left, the ogre did attack us again, but I shot a crossbow on its arm and repelled it temporarily." Weiqi walked up and handed back the burning crossbow. Zhu Peng Shaking his hand to refuse.
"There is no need to hold on to it anymore. I have found the location of its lair. Darter is not dead yet, but I want to remind you that the next trip may become more and more dangerous, although we will not endanger it. Protect you while your own lives are safe, but you are already hurting now. If you continue to go on, I'm afraid you will die." The first half of the sentence was addressed to Vicki, while the second half of Zhu Peng's sentence was It was to Miss Miru, the client of the mission.
Zhu Peng was reluctant to talk to this lady spectacles lady, because the other party's name was rather sloppy when calling, especially this woman was very stubborn in many cases.
"You are already an adult, and at the same time as the guardian of your younger siblings. Naturally, you have to bear the price for your choice and move on. You and your younger siblings are likely to die, but if you go back at this time, you have to face the same The danger of a monster attack... The task I accept is to search for and eliminate the monsters. Protecting you is not within our scope of responsibility. In the last round, my assistant has already protected you once. In the next journey, I They will never be allowed to put their lives in danger for protecting you again. Although this is too much to say, do you understand what I mean?"
"...I understand, Mr. Constantine, but if I can't see my brother, I can't feel at ease. My brothers and sisters are in the same mood as me. After the death of our parents, our brothers and sisters live together. We are a whole "The girl thought for a while, hugging her younger siblings and said.
"Admirable family affection, repulsive stupidity." Shaking his head, Zhu Peng raised the silver revolver in his hand, and he took the lead to walk towards the remains of the Taiguli.
The Taikuli civilization is one of the five largest jungle civilizations in the world. It has outstanding achievements in astronomy, mathematics, agriculture, art, and occult. The concepts of Taikuli wizards, Taikuli tricks, etc. are widely used in this world. In order to spread, however, such a civilization that had reached the level of one million in its heyday was completely destroyed in one day.
If in a normal world, such things have been investigated countless times by archaeologists and philanthropists in that world, but the entire Sodalo Forest is very close to the edge of the world’s cracks, so under the influence of civilizational restraint, The day-to-day destruction of this million-population civilization was watered down and even forgotten.
When Zhu Peng and others came to this civilization relic, the city of the jungle, they saw a huge building half-jungle and half-city, lacking people, and the vitality of Sodalo Forest was slowly disappearing its traces. However, among the ruined walls, one can still see the prosperity and glory of this civilization in the past.
It is not easy to create such a stone city solely by handcrafts~EbookFREE.me~ Although it is impossible to compare with modern cities, the stone city is still full of historical heaviness and simple grandeur.
The Taiguli people especially like stone murals, which depict their civilization’s astronomical calendar, historical contributions and heroes.
"Oh, according to the Taiguli calendar, our era seems to be over now, the end of the world. As a result, the world is not at the end, but they died first, which is really interesting." Because of the vivid descriptions on the slate murals, even if Kiman and Vichy do not understand the words of the Taiguli, they can still look at them. Especially the three of Gil Kant and Miru's brother and sister are all locals. They know more or less about the Taigul people, and they are willing to tell them.
While looking at the slate murals and listening to the explanations of his fellow travelers, Vicki, who was holding the burning crossbow, smiled and said a word. As a result, he was looked at by his teacher with a very strange look, and the boy was I felt a bit inexplicable while horrified.
"Yes, it is not a good thing to see through the future that your strength is not enough to deal with first, I am afraid it is not a good thing. The Taiguli people die in the astronomical deduction and development is too clever." Zhu Peng walked in front, he followed the path of fate. Guiding, soon after seven turns and eight turns, he found the monster's lair.
That monster is actually the only son of the sacred high priest of the Taigul people, and the only survivor in that catastrophe. It was just a child who witnessed such a tragedy, and then grew up slowly on the corpse of the mountain, with negative energy for a long time. Under the immersion, he quickly became half-man, half-devil, half-man and half-beast, especially since it was still near the edge of the big crack in the world, the breath and power of the lower planes were more likely to grow and penetrate.
From Zhu Peng's perspective, it might be easier for that child to die under his father's scepter.
