First Imperial Spirit Master

Chapter 33

Qin Shu walked to the second side of the stone wall with engraved characters and found that there were many more cracks than the first side.

Some are naturally formed, and some seem to be man-made.

He hesitated for a moment, but still tried to read the above words: "Today, the patriarch of the Meizu, Meixie, led the whole clan to attack Qiongqi in prison pool. More than half of the clan members were killed and injured, Qiongqi died under the sword of the patriarch, and the patriarch died of exhaustion. After the war, according to the last wish of the patriarch, he will be buried with..."

"With whom?" Qi Luo raised a hand and lightly touched the two words that had been scratched.

In this text, only these two characters have man-made scratches. Because of the age, they are mixed with natural cracks, so it is not very obvious at first glance.

But as Qin Shu read aloud word by word, whether it was Qi Luo or Qi Mo, his eyes could not help moving along the words with Qin Shu's voice, and he noticed the strange scratches.

However, Qin Shu's attention was a little different: "Meicui...the Meizu at that time really had the surname Mei."

"Mechanism." Qi Luo repeated the name, and a strange feeling rose in his heart.

I can't tell what it feels like, but there is a special sense of familiarity.

He turned his head to look at Qin Shu's face, and for a moment, he felt that this was his name.

Qi Mei obviously also thought of this point: "Master's previous life is not a charm, is it? If this is the case, will the name engraved here be the name of Lord Qi Luo?"

——It was the two words that were artificially scraped off.

The reason he gave was: "If the patriarch of the Meizu who defeated Qiongqi was really the past life of the master, then Master Qi Luo must have died in the battle of Prison Pool, otherwise it would be impossible to reincarnate with the soul of the master."

"But why scrape it off?" Qin Shu was puzzled.

Qi Luo was silent for a while, and had an answer in his heart.

Sure enough, the Qi people are still ashamed of him being a slave of the Meizu?

"No, it could also be Qiongqi?" Qin Shu said suddenly, "The reason why my imperial spirit is Qiongqi is not because I was buried with Qiongqi in the previous life... right?"

As soon as these words came out, there was a moment of silence.

It was only after Qin Shu finished speaking that he remembered—he had been talking to Qi Mo about "conquering Qiongqi" all the way, but he forgot that there was a Qiongqi beside him.

He subconsciously turned his head to look at Qi Luo, but saw that he was looking at the stone wall to himself, as if he didn't hear what he said just now.

But in fact, he heard it, but he didn't pay attention to it.

Before coming to Meizu, Qi Luo vaguely guessed the grievances between Meizu and Qiongqi from the words of Qin Shu and Qi Mei.

It was really unacceptable when I first learned about it, but I soon felt relieved.

——After all, Qiongqi is Qiongqi, and he is him.

"Go ahead." Qi Luo said to Qin Shu.

Qin Shu gave a "hmm", turned around and walked deeper into the cave.

After walking a certain distance, he finally couldn't hold back, and tentatively said to Qi Luo: "Don't worry, although you have become Qiongqi now, your soul still belongs to you."

"I know." Qi Luo responded calmly, turned his head and looked at Qin Shu, "Your Majesty, don't care, it doesn't matter what I am. In this life, I am your imperial spirit first, and then the poor strange."

"Okay." Qin Shu agreed, heaving a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, it was nothing to worry about, Qi Luo didn't look like a sentimental person.

Qin Shu looked away from Qi Luo's face, and then noticed the third stone wall with engraved characters. The characters on this stone wall were well preserved, but very short, only nine characters.

"The poor and the strange come out, the beasts gather, and the catastrophe strikes." Qin Shu read out these nine words.

"Qongqi was resurrected at this time, right?" Qi Mei looked at the nine characters, as if he could see the bloody storm behind this short sentence, "600 years ago...too long ago."

"Yeah, it's been too long." Qin Shu couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

The writing on this stone wall is by far the fewest, but it left the deepest impression on Qin Shu.

However, because of the lack of words, he failed to get any new information from these nine words.

At this time, they had reached the deepest part of the cave, and there was no way to go any further.

Qin Shu walked to the end unwillingly, touched the front buried by the rubble, and always felt that more information could be unearthed from here.

However, Qi Mei said: "Master, we can't go any further. We dug through it two years ago, and it collapsed shortly after it was dug through. Fortunately, there were no casualties. Since then, our family has never touched the stone cave. structure, for fear of destroying the surviving part.”

"That's it, what a pity." Qin Shu had to give up the idea of ​​digging.

But compared to the collapsed stone cave, what makes him feel more regretful is: "Why can't the writing of Meizu be preserved? As a Meizu, I can't even understand my own writing..."

"Uh, please forgive me, master." Qi Mei didn't know how to respond, so he could only bow his head and confess, and then explained helplessly, "After the Yuling clan ruled the Tianluo Continent, they unified the language, writing and currency, and did not allow any The clan uses scripts other than the ones prescribed for writing and communication. At first, the clan members were encouraged to learn two sets of scripts, but later, because the characters of the Yuling clan were easy to write, and the Meizu didn’t like documents at all..."

"Okay." Qin Shu sighed, "That's all I have to say."

What can I do now?Now it is too late for Meizu to learn this kind of characters like Xiaozhuan, and it is not realistic.

After all, for most people, words are nothing more than a tool for written communication.

After Qin Shu finished sighing, he went back to the second stone wall with characters engraved and stayed for a while. He couldn't identify the two characters that were scraped off, so he could only choose to give up.

"How did the Qi clan integrate into the Meizu?" This is the question he wants to know the most now, but unfortunately there is no answer in the cave.

However, according to the content engraved on the first stone wall, the Meizu and the Qi clan had fought before the battle of Yuchi, and according to the legend passed down to this day by the Meizu, the Meizu and the Qi clan had already become one clan at the time of the Yuchi battle.

I always feel that the fusion of the two races is inseparable from the appearance of Qiongqi.

It's normal to think about it - a common enemy is the best thrust to promote the integration of the two races.

He just didn't know why Qi Luo, who was from the Qi clan, called himself the master.

After leaving the cave, Qi Qi, who had been waiting at the entrance of the cave for a long time, asked Qin Shu how he felt. Qin Shu responded, "It would be great if the cave can be completely disassembled and the part with the words engraved on it can be preserved separately."

Qi Qi froze for a moment, with a troubled expression on his face.

Noticing her embarrassment, Qin Shu hurriedly said: "Sorry, I was rude, this cave should be very important to Meizu, right?"

Qi Qi nodded: "Yes. My family has settled here for generations because of this cave. It was left by our ancestors, and it is the spiritual pillar of our family. It reminds us that we can never forget I am a Meizu person."

Qin Shu nodded to express his understanding.

Qi Mei on the side hesitated to speak, but finally couldn't hold back, and said to Qi Qi with some excitement: "Patriarch, the master can understand the writing on the stone wall! He must have been a Meizu in his previous life!"

Hearing this sentence, Qi Qi's eyes widened in disbelief, and it took him a long time to realize: "Is this true?!"

"It's true!" Qi Mei responded, "The master read out all the words engraved on the stone wall, and then I realized that the Meizu and the Qi clan used to be two different races, and they merged into one clan later."

"It's so..." Qi Qi lost his mind for a while, and after a while of silence, he said, "The unified language of the Yuling clan has been hundreds of years ago, and it's only a few years since the battle of Prison Pool. If Master Qin Shu can really understand The words on the stone wall, at least in the previous life, were from people hundreds of years ago."

"He's Meixi." Suddenly, Qi Luo spoke affirmatively.

Hearing these four words, the other three were taken aback and cast surprised glances at him.

Now Qi Luo can be sure that Qin Shu is Meixi, he said to Qin Shu: "There is no blood resonance between you and me, we belong to two races, we must be people before the fusion of the two races, in other words, it must be a prisoner." People before the battle of Chi Yi. But since I am willing to respect you as the master, there must have been a fusion between your two races at that time. That time coincided with the time when Qiongqi appeared, and the person who attacked Qiongqi was Meixie, so you It's Enchantment."

He said, after a pause, he added lightly: "I know you are."

Qin Shu was taken aback for a moment.

To be honest, he didn't listen carefully to Qi Luo's initial analysis, and he didn't even have the slightest impression of the name Meixie.

However, when he heard the last five words Qi Luo said, he immediately believed it—well, I am Meixie.

This is a very strange feeling. Qin Shu has never trusted a person so much, to the point that he is what he says.

And since he believed it, he didn't think too much, and just exclaimed: "I defeated Qiongqi in my previous life! It's too powerful, I dare not think about it."

Hearing these words, Qi Luo raised his eyebrows, and there was a not-so-obvious smile on his lips.

"Master has always been very good!" Qi Mei began to blow rainbow farts again, "Master's fighting talent is unmatched - there is no one else who can learn to use attributes to fly within two years, except Master!"

"That's enough, that's enough, just talking nonsense again." Qin Shu interrupted him helplessly, and then asked Qi Qi, "Is there any other material to record words here? Such as books, sculptures, etc.?"

"This..." Qi Qi showed an embarrassing expression, as if it was difficult to speak.But in the end, she bit the bullet and answered Qin Shu, "Meizu has been in a predicament of being short of money all these years, and the whole clan has had their last meal, so..."

"So you sold everything you could sell?" Qin Shu guessed.

He remembered the sword and the so-called "bone comb" in his space ring.

Qi Qi coughed: "Yes."

"Okay." Qin Shu said helplessly.

It seems that he won't get any new information from Meizu here.

That being the case...

"I have other things to deal with, so I will leave after lunch." Qin Shu said bluntly, "Thank you patriarch for your kind hospitality these two days, and I will come to see you again after I settle that matter."

I hope that by that time, all his doubts will be solved.

The author has something to say: the well-proclaimed cool article, as you write it, it becomes a riddle... Absolutely _(:з」∠)_
