Chapter 628 On the Matter of Being Blocked on the Second Step of Going Out
In the back seat was Jue, holding her breath in frustration.
Driving the car was a man whose height was only about 1.7 meters, but who possessed the imposing presence of a great master. He was none other than the Taishan Mountain God, Taiqi. The characters "Tai He Qi" individually carried a sense of depth and weight, but together, they exuded an aura of steadfastness.
Mount Tai is majestic; a true gentleman is not a vessel.
Jue, who had been happily planning to search for the Queen Mother of the West on her own, was intercepted as soon as she stepped out the door.
After experiencing the fright of the previous night and realizing that their young mistress might be whisked away by that sly and mischievous boy for a night out, the various mountain gods held an online meeting late into the night. A surge of passionate anger erupted, enough to melt even rocks into lava.
Finally, to be on the safe side.
They decided to send the most steadfast Taiqi Mountain God back as a doorman and bodyguard.
He had rushed three thousand five hundred miles overnight to reach his destination.
As a top-tier martial god of the Kunlun Mountain and Sea lineage, of the Western Mountain Realm.
He could go toe-to-toe with deities of powerful divine force in other divine eras.
Taiqi Mountain God himself could cross the spatial barriers between the human world and the various realms of Kunlun. In his berserk state, his basic attack was to carry a mountain and hurl it down at supersonic or several times the speed of sound, creating a physical nuclear explosion. Then, he'd pick it up and smash it down again with a backhand.
Defense?
Try to pierce through a five-thousand-meter rock wall imbued with solidified divine power first.
Knowledge?
Divine powers?
What flashy nonsense?
He didn't need it. He only needed speed, strength, and that simple, direct kinetic energy formula.
After reading junior high school physics and understanding the kinetic energy formula, the mountain gods clarified their own fighting style.
Speed and strength equal destructive power, got it.
And as mountain gods of Shenzhou.
Making mountains bigger and heavier was a basic operation.
Theoretically, as long as we carry a mountain high enough, then use centrifugal force to accelerate its rotation, and give it a sufficiently large initial velocity, plus gravitational acceleration, our mountain smash would be basically equivalent to a super-enhanced version of a meteor strike.
And luckily, we have enough mountain gods.
Suddenly, the格局 opened up. Right, who said mountain gods couldn't carry mountains into the sky and then smash them down?
Compared to the mountain gods of other divine systems, who were practically non-existent, the mountain gods in the *Shan Hai Jing* who could actually fight, although they were unlikely to reach peak combat power, and even the strongest martial gods were unlikely to rank at the top of first-class combat power, they were at least the mainstay and high-end combat power of the Kunlun divine system.
To be honest, these mountain gods were completely forced to engage in involution.
After all, they didn't want to be carried as weapons by the god who held up the sky, Chong.
Nor did they want to be carried around like moving furniture by those guys like Kua'e, who were close to the human race.
Even less did they want to be gnawed on as snacks by gluttons like Taotie and Xiangliu, whose true forms were ridiculously large.
Surrounded by such outrageous monster-level beings, they had to improve their strength if they didn't want to die.
On this land, the lives of mountain gods were not easy.
Of course, the number one martial god was actually the most unreliable, Qianlai Mountain God.
In fact, that guy's position was the same as the Old Mountain Lord, both Mountain Lord level.
Seeing what looked like a red light ahead, Taiqi Mountain God preemptively stepped on the brakes and slowly decelerated.
Seeing Jue in the rearview mirror, looking vaguely sulky.
Taiqi Mountain God was practically family, so Jue didn't need to maintain too much of a dignified air.
"Your Majesty, are you angry?" Taiqi Mountain God asked after some thought.
"No."
Jue replied forcefully, hugging a car back seat pillow.
Taiqi Mountain God retracted his gaze, thought for a moment, and didn't say the words that Lord Chongwu had angrily blurted out last night: "At least before the wedding, the two of you can't go out alone overnight, and you can't go out alone for too long."
Everyone could sense the faint suppression in the human world during this period. As gods, they all inherently possessed abilities similar to precognition and hunches. There was a line of poetry in the human world: "Dark clouds press down on the city, threatening to crush it; the mountain rain is about to come, the wind fills the tower." If there was a major upheaval, there would naturally be a preliminary collision of omens.
They were unwilling to leave.
Everyone was wandering around Shenzhou to see if they could find any awakened divinity.
Or rather, to first find a mountain, incorporate it into their own system, and restore some of their strength.
And to practice the Western Mountain Realm's meteor strike formation.
In order to cope with the first part of the upcoming great tribulation.
When mountain gods left their mountains, their combat power would plummet.
But within their own mountain domain, their combat power would skyrocket.
With the added bonus of unlocking the ability to pick up a mountain and smash it down at point-blank range, a nuclear explosion level attack.
"Where are we going? Huh?!"
"Huh?!!!"
Taiqi Mountain God asked, his voice abruptly cut short.
"What, what's going on?"
He saw a large group of people gathered on the wide road ahead, blocking the way. Looking from afar, there were rows of fat-headed, shrewd-looking people hanging from the tall streetlights, with piles of evidence of their crimes hanging down from their bodies.
This scene was simply too retro, almost like the methods used to deal with capitalists hundreds of years ago.
And the evidence was detailed to the point of being outrageous, basically equivalent to eyewitness accounts, logically rigorous, without a single flaw.
Countless people were frantically filming videos and uploading them to the internet.
Taiqi Mountain God's thoughts froze.
"What's wrong?"
Jue asked, hugging the pillow tightly.
Taiqi Mountain God withdrew his gaze and said, "No, it's nothing, it has nothing to do with us."
"It seems like some people have been strung up on lampposts."
"I wonder which guy did it..."
He hesitated for a moment, then said, "But there's no killing, so it looks like it's the kind that sticks to the bottom line. No need to worry about it, but with this, the effect is actually achieved? Outrageous, outrageous."
Taiqi Mountain God took out his phone and took a rather shocking picture of the lampposts.
He drove away from here.
At the same time, a young man with a well-proportioned figure, chiseled features, and a resolute and valiant air.
Was pushing a fast food cart away from the scene of the crime.
So-called, leaving after the deed is done, concealing oneself and one's name.
"Selling boxed lunches, twelve yuan a box, three vegetarian and one meat set meal."
A petite girl with short, spirited hair and full of vitality took a boxed lunch and was shocked by the deliciousness. This level of skill could almost rival that damned Crouching Tiger restaurant! Qinyuan was shocked and looked at the resolute and valiant 'fast food cart guy' in front of her.
"Hey, want to cooperate?"
Qinyuan, who always got 59 points in moral education and yearned to become a capitalist, shouted:
"I can provide honey water."
"Let's work together to make it bigger and stronger!"
……………………
Under the escort of Taiqi Mountain God, Jue and he arrived at the area where the clues were located.
There was indeed danger, there were enemies.
As well as traps in the formation.
And the extent of Jue's current restored strength was enough to deal with these. However, Taiqi Mountain God didn't give her a chance to act personally, directly bulldozing through. As one of the top ten martial gods among the proper mountain gods in the *Kunlun Wu Zang Shan Jing*, Taiqi's strength was not to be underestimated.
These traps and the like were bulldozed through all the way.
Until finally, the demon spirits guarding this place were directly imprisoned by Taiqi Mountain God in a hill.
With a backhand grip, pure mountain rocks erupted, the earth protruding with rock spears imbued with divine energy, piercing through all enemies, slowly dissipating. The mountains of Kunlun were rich in gold and jade. These weapons made by Taiqi Mountain God's divine power were in no way inferior to human divine weapons in terms of sharpness.
In the deepest part, there was indeed the aura of the Queen Mother of the West.
But there was also something else, a stone tablet, shrouded and suppressed by a formation left by the Queen Mother of the West. The celestial maiden frowned. Taiqi Mountain God's tone was gentle and deep: "... *Hetu Luoshu*? How could it be this kind of thing?"
"Is this real or fake?" the celestial maiden asked.
Taiqi Mountain God shook his head: "I don't know."
"I only know that this thing, whether real or fake, is extremely... indescribable."
"Knowing the possibility of the future itself has no distinction between good and evil, but after learning about this future, the impact it produces often leads to regret. Or rather, if the future is bad, you want to change it; if the future is good, you want to make it even better."
"Once you have desires, you are essentially entering the game."
"And there are too few people who can restrain the desire to reverse the future."
The maiden stretched out her hand and pressed it on the *Hetu Luoshu*.
"Perhaps, the clue given by the Queen Mother of the West is here."
"Taiqi, please protect me. If you sense anything wrong, immediately awaken my true spirit."
Taiqi Mountain God said slowly: "Yes, I obey."
Jue nodded. The *Hetu Luoshu* instantly revealed the future.
What was it?
The future of the human world? The hope of Kunlun?
Or the whereabouts of the Queen Mother of the West?
As the wind of Kunlun, Jue easily, or rather, more deeply than other living beings, opened the *Hetu Luoshu*—the *Hetu Luoshu* possessed its own rules. In any case, it was bound to manifest the future corresponding to the human world at this moment.
The formation left by the Queen Mother of the West forcibly reversed the *Hetu Luoshu*, so that it could reveal the future, and completely stripped away the possibility of malicious intent. In other words, even if it was fake, you had to take it seriously in this situation. After all, the Queen Mother of the West was the Queen Mother of the West. Her strength was far beyond what the *Hetu Luoshu* could compare to.
Either listen obediently.
Or be beaten until you listen. Which one do you choose?
And Jue further strengthened this effect, making it even more precise.
It was like when Xuanyuan finished fighting the gods, King Yu reappeared carrying the Xuanyuan Sword and the Yeying Sword on his back.
The feeling in his heart at that time was the legendary psychological shadow. You could completely ask how big this psychological area was.
The future thus unfolded, but this time it was not just a picture.
Rather, it was as if the future human world was unfolding in its entirety before her.
Jue stepped into the human world of this era like a wisp of wind. Turning her head to see the time on the display screen, she was slightly surprised. Calculating the period, it could correspond to the time of the future tribulation that Yuan had mentioned before. It seemed that after the tribulation, in the future that Wei Yuan had seen, everything was devastated, and all that remained was the smoke of war.
But now, the cities of the human race were still orderly, and all the beautiful things were protected.
It was just that new exhibition platforms had been added in the air, as well as road signs with a speed limit of 100 kilometers per hour for sword flight.
There were prohibitions against using spells with spiritual power higher than 100 units in human cities.
Everything was in order. Technology and transcendence developed in parallel and completed an organic combination. It was a rather beautiful future. Jue breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that there was a chance to overcome the tribulation in the future. After overcoming the great tribulation, and with the human race surviving, it was much better than that painful future before.
She heard in the news that Longhu Mountain was recently recruiting new disciples.
She saw the old Taoist Zhang Ruosu smiling and saying something, and Ah Xuan beside him was still young, but Zhang Hao, who was already the Law Enforcement Elder, had already grown a beard, his aura was long, and his Taoism was obviously extremely profound, one could know the changes of time.
That Taoist who only knew how to freeload had already obtained the *Shangqing Sandong Jinglu*, second only to the Celestial Master.
Jue thought, subconsciously walking back, she saw a fox girl on the roadside with fox ears showing, wearing Hanfu and taking selfies, and a human race with the aura of the *Shan Hai Jing* angrily cursing that damned mathematics, and then had to lower their heads to do their homework.
The current internet hotspot was whether high school students should be relieved of their burden, having to study science every day, and also needing to practice swordsmanship and breathing exercises. In addition, the latest scientific research was that mathematicians had broken through the rules of 32 nodes of talismans, and could draw talismans with 16 nodes, with the same destructiveness, greatly saving losses at the front lines.
There was also a huge advertisement for Qinyuan Honey Water.
It seemed that the human race and Kunlun were joining forces to confront the Great Wilderness.
The creatures of the *Shan Hai Jing* and the human race began to merge greatly.
The Qingqiu Fox Clan appeared in the world.
Fox girls became frequent guests in major film and television productions.
Most of the human race began to turn to scientific research, while a large number of creatures with brute force came to the human world, undertaking work that required strength. The two sides coexisted equally, like a symbiotic relationship, recognizing the five principles of equal coexistence. Jue walked unconsciously back to the old street.
It seemed to be the same as before, without a trace of the passage of time.
She wanted to push the door open, but found that she could not interfere here.
It happened that a girl pushed the door open and walked into the museum briskly.
"Hello, welcome."
With a gentle and refined voice, when Jue looked over, she saw that it was actually the Water Ghost sitting behind the table, with two strands of white hair at his temples, gentle and handsome, his eyes peaceful, as if they contained countless stories, the guests who came were all stunned, their faces blushing.
Jue took the opportunity to enter the future of the museum, looking around at the surrounding collections.
Museum curator Wei finally seemed to have gotten rid of the curse of poverty.
The original wooden shelves had become better materials, with bulletproof and spell-proof glass. The cabinets whose paint was about to peel off in the wind and sun had been replaced with new ones. The girl looked at them one by one, with great interest, and then her gaze froze.
The painter pushed him out from behind the cabinet.
The Water Ghost, who was no longer relaxed and liked to joke, and did not like to fight, had lost both legs and his right arm.
White hair hung down at his temples.
In the biggest, biggest cabinet in the museum.
A broken ancient sword was lying quietly horizontally.
Yellow cloth was wrapped around the hilt, stained with blood, burning like fire, but the flames had been extinguished like ashes, and the Yellow Turbans no longer danced.
The sword was named Chang'an.
All the good things in the human world had been protected.
"Where is the museum curator?" a guest asked curiously.
"That's me."
The Water Ghost with white hair at his temples was silent for a long time, then smiled softly and replied.
"That's me."
ps: Second update today…………
I'm not sending out knives, offering tea, it's just that some lines have to be opened, offering tea.
