The Back To Heaven

262. Relics of ancient practitioners

“You went to Mount Kunlun just to explore?” He looked at the old man in the wheelchair and continued to ask.

The old man did not immediately reply, but hesitated.

Seeing this old man hesitating to answer, Lin Hao became a little curious.

Since the other party had not explored Kunlun Mountain, then what were they doing deep into Kunlun Mountain!

“You can let it go, but your condition is very likely related to Mount Kunlun. If I don't understand anything, I'm afraid it won't be able to cure your illness.” Even if the other party refused to say, he would force her to speak.

He wanted to know what the old man was doing when he went to Mount Kunlun, and where exactly did they go to Mount Kunlun.

The place they were heading to, most likely, was where the real dragon was.

The old man sat in a wheelchair, still lowered his head, hesitating.

Lin Hao did not push him anymore, silently waiting for him to make a choice.

After a long period of hesitation, the old man finally made his decision and slowly raised his head.

“Zhonger, you get out first.” The old man did not immediately speak, but looked at his son who was standing behind him, and ordered in a tone that could not hold his beak.

"You stay here, I will take you to the waiting room," said Lin Hao before the middle-aged man could speak.

Lin Hao knew that what the old man said next was mostly related to the remains of the ancient earth monk, and this was also very important to him, to avoid others knowing about it, and it's better not to let anyone else hear it.

Even Huangyin, she did not want to let him hear anything related to Kunlun Mountain.

The old man looked at Lin Hao and nodded.

After which, Lin Hao pushed the wheelchair and left the living room to the waiting room on the first floor.

When the waiting room door closed, Lin Hao clamped his finger, and a flash of light shot out. In an instant, in this waiting room, a form of prohibition formed and enveloped the entire space.

Furthermore, even if one lay at the door to eavesdrop, they could not hear anything.

After finishing all this, Lin Hao looked at the old man in the wheelchair again.

"You can talk."

“As a condition, when you have said everything you know, I will promise to give you a new life.” Then he added another sentence.

The old man nodded small.

“I am an archaeologist. I have been in this field for decades, and I am considered a little famous. Twelve years ago, someone suddenly found me and showed me a very old map.” The old man said slowly.

“It was a map that could be on top of a bronze plate. It could be seen from the broken surface of that bronze plate. It should have been the broken part of the large bronze casting. As for age, in my experience, it should roughly be in the Warring States Period."

After talking about this, the old man paused for a moment.

Lin Hao stood there, listening to the old man's words, nodding without commitment.

"The text on the map is not any Chinese text, but I can sense that it is older than any of the oldest texts on earth." The old man continued.

Hearing this, Lin Hao's brows moved slightly.

If nothing went wrong, the words on the bronze plate the old man saw should have been Taoism.

But all monks, no matter on which planet they are on, must learn Taoism.

"I read many ancient books from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Finally, in a very old bamboo slip book, I found a similar map and determined that the place marked on the map was the northern foot of Mount Kunlun." The old man continued.

"In the second year, I followed that person's team and began the path towards Kunlun Mountain. We crossed the vast desert at the northern foot of Mount Kunlun. We climbed according to the map, climbed mountains and crossed mountains, and finally reached the marked map."

"There, we found a cave hidden under a cliff. In front of the cave, there were many broken objects that were neither gold nor jade, and some corpses of people."

After saying this, the old man stopped again, and he looked up, seemingly caught in memory.

"The men had no idea how many years they had been dead, but the bodies were well preserved, and their faces could still be clearly seen. We collected some broken objects and then entered the cave."

"The cave was supposed to have been excavated artificially. You can't imagine who, in such a place, could dig a thousand-meter underground cavern."

"When we entered the cave, we experienced the first crisis. In the underground river, a huge python suddenly appeared. Two of us were swallowed by pythons before we could escape."

"Someone in the team carries a gun, but even a powerful weapon cannot injure a python. In the end, someone used a grenade to blow up a python and we just survived."

"We crossed the underground river and entered the ancient building complex. This is the first time in my life. Seeing such a magnificent building, it shouldn't belong to this world."

When it came to this, the old man's face showed some sort of obsession, some sort of drunkenness.

"We saw a lot of amazing images, and also saw a lot of magical things. Originally, we wanted to take out the treasure buried in the ground, but the python appeared again."

“We use all the weapons we can attack, but we cannot kill pythons. We can only escape. On the way, each teammate is killed by a python. When we finally escaped from the cave, all that was left was Saya and the other archaeological escorts."

"After escaping from the cave, the two of us threw away all the items we had brought. We just rushed back along the way we came up with two objects that we picked up from the complex."

"In the end, we crossed the Gobi Desert alive and returned to the city."

After talking about this, the old man stopped and the whole person returned to normal.

“The stuff inside the wooden box in your hand is what I took from the underground building complex.” The old man looked at Lin Hao, looked at the wooden box in Lin Hao's hand, and said.

“If you are asked to leave again, do you still remember the previous road?” Lin Hao was silent for a moment, and asked.

When he heard Lin Hao's question, the old man was stunned for a moment.

After which, he smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"I'm a useless person, even if I want to go, I can't go." He said with a wry smile.
