Chapter 38 A Jade Hairpin

Nujiao's expression faltered for a split second.

Then, her eyes shifted slightly, her expression remained unchanged, and she said with a faint smile, "I see."

"It seems that the true spirit scattered by Gonggong has awakened."

"Well, judging by the time, it's about time."

She picked up her teacup, concealing the change in her expression. The feeling in her heart was like watching the tabby cat she had raised, allowing her to knead it into any shape she wanted, only able to explode in impotent rage. But as soon as it went out, it casually swatted a black and white snake to death with a meow.

That intense contrast left her at a loss for words for a moment.

Wei Yuan didn't notice the momentary emotional shift in Nujiao.

He only felt that her tone was calm and composed, as always. But thinking about it, Nujiao had faced Gonggong with King Yu, so it was normal for her to have such composure. After thinking for a moment, he briefly recounted his experience, not yet asking how to deal with Gonggong's seal.

Nujiao had already stood up, reaching out to press her hand on Wei Yuan's brow, frowning slightly.

Wei Yuan felt a wisp of energy spreading from his brow, circulating once around him.

Nujiao breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "Gonggong didn't play any tricks."

"That's certainly his personality."

But quickly, she added with a hint of displeasure, "However, using divinity in wine without properly utilizing it, other than making it taste good, it's useless, and doesn't benefit your cultivation at all. As expected, he still likes extravagance."

Nujiao retracted her finger, seeing Wei Yuan's appearance, she flicked his forehead with her finger, saying in annoyance, "Remember this well."

"Don't eat things given by others indiscriminately."

"This time it's Gonggong, if he wasn't Gonggong, but a god who had a grudge against you in disguise, your intestines would have rotted by now."

Wei Yuan rubbed his forehead, obediently replying, "Oh."

"Oh, what oh, it's obvious you didn't take it to heart."

Nujiao said, then sat back in her original position.

"So," she touched the teacup with her finger, saying lazily:

"You came to ask me how to seal Gonggong, right?"

"Yes."

"It seems you're not stupid, knowing to find a solution, not rushing forward foolishly like before."

Nujiao praised, then thought for a moment, and said:

"Besides this, what else do you want to ask?"

Wei Yuan hesitated, and said, "If I want to bring others back to the Land of Mountains and Seas together."

"Is there a way?"

"Others?"

Nujiao keenly sensed something, and said with interest, "Who is it?"

"...A friend."

"Hmm, a friend..."

Nujiao suddenly said, "Is this friend of yours, Jue?"

Seeing Wei Yuan's expression stiffen slightly, Nujiao smiled playfully:

"Besides her, which friend would want to go to the Land of Mountains and Seas? What's wrong? Does she want to go back?"

"Those demons and beasts can come and go because humanity instinctively rejects the creatures of the Land of Mountains and Seas. They can return by following this rejection, but Jue doesn't have that, nor do humans. To go to the Land of Mountains and Seas, you need that set of bronze artifacts to stabilize your position."

"If you want to bring her back, then you should find the last piece."

Wei Yuan thought of the set of bronze artifacts crafted by Emperor Xin, still missing the last piece.

Nujiao took a sip of tea, and said:

"After going back, what else do you want to do?"

".........Carve a jade hairpin?"

Faced with Nujiao's smiling inquiry, Wei Yuan had no choice but to reveal his thoughts.

Nujiao said, "Kunlun white jade, plum blossom in the cold, very good."

"I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful."

Her eyes fell on Wei Yuan's face, smiling brightly, "What about mine?"

Wei Yuan's expression froze.

Nujiao's eyes widened slightly, filled with disbelief, "Could it be that you only prepared one for Jue, and don't plan to give me one? When you were young, how many times did I save you? As expected, it can't compare, favors are easily forgotten, favors are easily forgotten..."

"Yu, Yuan's wings have hardened, he doesn't care about me anymore."

The white-haired woman turned her eyes and sighed softly, on the verge of tears.

Her eyes stared straight at Wei Yuan.

Wei Yuan only felt his scalp tingle.

He stiffly raised his hand: "There is, there is, also Kunlun white jade."

"Really?"

"Really."

"That's more like it."

The white-haired woman lowered the long sleeves that covered her face, not the slightest bit of sadness on the verge of tears, spirited and smiling brightly.

The corner of Wei Yuan's mouth twitched.

Nujiao extorted a white jade hairpin, the key point wasn't the jade hairpin, but the process of 'extortion'.

Satisfied, she said:

"As for the seal, you also know that it was originally the material used to forge the Nine Cauldrons. A portion was separated, using the luck of the Nine Provinces and the Four Seas, to seal Gonggong's divinity under the East Sea. Yu left behind the method of sealing, but later, something happened, and the gold and iron used for the seal were lost."

"Lost?"

"Yes..." Nujiao said:

"The place where Yu stored the gold and iron of the Nine Cauldrons originally had absolute sealing, but he wasn't the kind of absolutely rigid person. He considered that if another great war broke out in the Divine Continent, with a heart to support the world, he could take out the remaining materials and forging techniques of the Nine Cauldrons."

"As weapons, to maintain the order of the world."

"Ordinary people cannot pass through that seal, it must be someone with utmost sincerity and passion, holding great aspirations for the world."

Wei Yuan said, "But someone passed through..."

"Correct."

Nujiao said, "Heroes will always appear on this land of the Divine Continent, even I cannot say that he is not qualified to take those things away. I even think that his thinking is the same as some people before him, transcending that era."

"His name is Zhai, Mo Zhai, or you can call him Mozi."

"He took away the remnants of the Nine Cauldrons and forged a sword without an edge, pointing to the world. The name of the Mohist knight rose in that chaotic world, running around the Divine Continent, they were the first knights. Since then, the name of the knight has been passed down, but after his death, the Mohist school split into three, fighting to争夺this sword."

Wei Yuan suddenly had a strong premonition about the upcoming development.

Sure enough, Nujiao slowly said, "Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, collected the weapons of the world, the contemporary Qin Mohists built the imperial mausoleum. If this sword is still there, then it should be in the imperial mausoleum. If you want to strengthen the seal, you can either obtain materials containing luck from the nine provinces and ten directions again, or retrieve that sword and use it to strengthen the seal."

"Not just you, even I don't want to see Gonggong."

The Imperial Mausoleum.

The solution to Gonggong's matter was directly locked onto the imperial mausoleum.

Wei Yuan was silent for a moment, then nodded.

He sometimes found that some people stood horizontally in history, as long as they were involved in that era, involved in those wise men and heroes, then when everyone's history and demise intersected, they would always be connected with those people, converging at one point, unavoidable, inescapable.

The six kingdoms returned to Qin.

And the ancient objects carried the emotions and experiences of people in the past.

Five hundred years of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, those magnificent or tragic histories, heroes, beauties, emperors, generals, and ministers, finally converged to one point, as red as blood, pressed by the imperial seal, heavily pressed on a blank scroll carved with the map of the Divine Continent, turning into the words "May you receive longevity and prosperity."

"I will pay attention."

Wei Yuan looked at the scenery outside, then turned to look at Nujiao, thought for a moment, and suddenly said, "In recent years, you have not gone out, even if you don't like Gonggong, you haven't collected materials to strengthen the seal; knowing that there is a way to go to the Land of Mountains and Seas, but you haven't gone back to take a look, always staying in Qingqiu Country."

"Witch Nujiao, are you also suppressing something here?"

Just like every generation of Celestial Masters.

Nujiao smiled, noncommittal.

Just as she was about to speak, Wei Yuan shrugged his shoulders and said for her:

"Guess."

Nujiao was stunned, with a smile in her eyes, and said:

"Oh, not bad, you know how to answer back."

"However, I suggest that even if you can go to the Land of Mountains and Seas, you should also be careful, stay away from the Four Fiends. Gonggong, Zhurong, Zhujiuyin, and even Lu Wu, have a sense of being gods, but the Four Fiends are different, they are very narrow-minded and vengeful."

"Especially since you have a grudge against them."

Wei Yuan frowned, and said, "I don't remember offending them..."

"They are basically Emperor Shun's enemies, right?"

Nujiao was stunned, and couldn't help but laugh, her shoulders shaking as she laughed, "You don't have a grudge?"

"You wrote their stories in a book, which has been circulating for so long, now even the mountain gods and land gods in the most remote places, or ordinary people in this era, know what Qiongqi looks like, know Qiongqi's eating habits and quirks, do you think there is no grudge?"

The woman laughed until her stomach hurt, and finally, seeing that Wei Yuan still didn't think there was a grudge, she held back and said:

"Probably like, if someone took your high school, no, junior high school diary, or space literature, that's what humans call it now, um, and published this kind of thing in the most authoritative publication, and then distributed it to the whole world, circulating for thousands of years."

"Even to the point where people in the most distant places from you know it thousands of years later."

"They will discuss your past and history in places you know or don't know."

"And now, you find that person appearing in front of you."

"Cough, Yuan, what do you think you would do?"

The expression on Wei Yuan's face gradually stiffened.

"This was done by Emperor Shun."

"They can't beat Shun."

"Yu asked me to carve it."

"They can't beat Yu either."

"I don't think it has anything to do with me..."

"But they can beat you."

…………………………

And at this time, near Mount Li.

Several figures appeared, approaching furtively. Finally, they bypassed the security system of the terracotta warriors and horses and entered the interior of the terracotta warriors and horses. One of the men overlooked the terracotta warriors and horses and praised, "As expected of the tomb of the first emperor of the Divine Continent, even just the vanguard has such a strong aura."

"Hey, stop looking, we have to hurry."

"I know, this is the imperial mausoleum before the age of gods, the treasures are definitely more and better than those pyramid tombs and the Spear of Longinus." Everyone used their own methods to enter the deeper parts of the First Emperor's Mausoleum.

In this greatly changed world, there will always be people who take risks.

Reaching out to touch the wall seal in front.

One of the men couldn't help but say, "This is the First Emperor's Mausoleum, now that spiritual energy is reviving."

"Will there be any defensive measures..."

A man who was busy working didn't even look up and said:

"Hey, what means can there be, just hidden weapons and traps, etc. It's okay, we specialize in dealing with this kind of thing."

"Spiritual energy is reviving? How many years has it been, it's not like no one has been here before. Besides, if there really are any means, those researchers would be the first to suffer. They're all fine, why would we be in trouble?"

"But, this is the First Emperor after all, is it really okay for us to do this?"

The man who was busy working became unhappy, and said:

"No matter how powerful he was when he was alive, he's dead after all, right? Treasures buried in the ground are better off giving us a fortune. I'll definitely burn incense for him every day, and respect him more than my own father, is that okay?"

"Okay, shut up, hurry up and work. We have to look down again today. We finally lured away that group of cultivators hiding here. Damn it, the action team actually set up an entire cultivator brigade here in the First Emperor's Mausoleum. If it weren't for the methods passed down from my ancestors, which specialize in dealing with this situation, we wouldn't be able to get in."

"First Emperor, today I'm going to take a look in your tomb!"

His eyes were shining brightly.

And in the darkness, Mount Li, which stretches for fifty miles, is like a骏马, and when this man finished his last sentence, it seemed to stimulate something. In the undeveloped dark area, which should be the location of the central army, a pair of eyes slowly opened.

Fine dust fell.
