Chapter 80 Chapter 29 Hometown

We continued to move forward, looking for a way out in this snow valley, and finally found a place that could be climbed and hidden under the snow.I scraped off the snow with a mountaineering pick, looked for footholds on the rocks bit by bit, and climbed up with pedals. At night, I leaned against the rock wall to rest.It was not until noon the next day that we climbed the thirty-meter-high cliff. We keep going hard.I followed Poker-Face. At dusk, we may not have traveled more than twenty kilometers, but we found traces of snowmelt all around.Poker-Face listened with his ears, touched bit by bit, and finally found the gap buried in the snow.

After dark, the temperature dropped much lower than expected. We entered the gap and came to the hot spring where we rested at that time. We built a fire inside to keep warm and boiled some soup. I don't have much appetite and haven't eaten anything, but Poker Bottle doesn't seem to want to eat anything at all.After resting in the gap for a while, we continued to walk in. At this time, I already understood where Poker Bottle was going.He's going to the bronze gate.That place has completely subverted my outlook on life, I really don't want to see that place again. However, it is obvious that Poker Bottle's destination is there.From this gap, all the way in, you will reach that place soon, and you don't need to go around the entire Yunding Tiangong.

I thought about those human-faced birds, and wondered what the situation was like now.I had a dream that night. I dreamed that Poker-Face and I came to the bronze door. Poker-Face said goodbye to me and went in, leaving me alone at the door. When I turned around, countless The man-faced bird looked at me and woke me up.After waking up, he saw that Poker Ping hadn't slept, but was sorting out all his things. I asked him what he was doing, and he said, "I'm looking at what you can use, and I'll leave it to you. You might need it on your way back." "What about you?" I asked in surprise.

"Here, it doesn't matter even if I'm a newborn baby, I'm already very close to my destination." He said, "You don't need to go in again, it's too dangerous inside." I was surprised to see that Poker Ping took out two ghost jade seals from his package. He weighed them and handed one of them to me. "Since you've come here, I think you should know something." He said, "You take this ghost jade seal back, I only need one." "Where did you get the other one?" "Old lady Huo gave it to me." Poker bottle said, "Before you guys knew about it."

"What is this thing for?" I went straight to the point, and I was no longer interested in knowing what was going on behind it. Poker bottle said: "Open the door." I took the ghost jade seal, and he said: "Bring this thing to the bronze door, and the door will open. Ten years later, if you still remember me, you can take this thing and open the bronze door." .You might still see me in there." "What's behind that door?" I asked Poker, "Why did you go in?" "I can't tell you what kind of place it is." Poker bottle said, "I can only tell you a promise. Many years ago, I found the so-called old nine gates with a secret. In the Zhang family's In the ancestral teachings, the biggest goal has always been to preserve. The entire development process of the Zhang family is to hope that in any troubled times, the Zhang family can survive, so as to preserve the mass burials of the ancient building of the Zhang family. From the news I got Look, only the patriarch can know a huge secret. The Zhang family has obtained this huge secret from the very beginning. This secret has been running in the long river of Chinese history. No one knows what it is. We only know that there is this secret itself. The secret has a critical time node. This node has now arrived. After the last remaining hope of the Zhang family was shattered, I found the old nine gates at that time, hoping to use the strength of the old nine gates to help the Zhang family and jointly undertake this obligation , so that this secret will not be discovered, but none of the old nine sects fulfilled their promise.

"I want to protect the core of this secret, just behind this bronze door. It will take time to protect this secret. I will enter ten years after the bronze door and wait for the next successor." "Why do you say none of them kept their promise?" "Because in the past nearly a hundred years, all the people who guarded this secret were members of the Zhang family, and the power of the Zhang family was weakened. According to our previous promise, people from the old nine sects must take turns Keep this secret." "They didn't go alone?" Poker bottle nodded: "I am already the last Zhang Qiling of the Zhang family, and I must guard all the days to come. However, since you are here, I still tell you that ten years later, if you still remember me , you can open this giant bronze gate to replace me."

"Wait." I digested it for a while, and then asked, "You mean, the old nine sects have to take turns. Your Zhang family has taken turns for several lifetimes?" Poker-finger nodded, and I asked him: "Then if this is not the case, according to the promise, whose turn should it be for the old Jiumen now?" "You." Poker Bottle said. I?I froze for a moment: "You mean, I was supposed to enter behind this bronze door and stay for ten years?" Poker-Face nodded. I was just about to tell you to make it clear when Poker-Face suddenly reached out and pressed the back of my neck, and I lost consciousness instantly.

That was the last time I saw Poker-Face. After I woke up, everything about him disappeared except for the ghost jade seal he left for me. I frantically went looking for him, squeezed deep into the gap, and found that there was no road there.The way we came out before was actually closed. I remembered that when Pokerfoil was crawling inside, he disappeared in front of me for a moment. Could it be that he activated something at that time, which led to our later path? I stayed in that place for three days, until the blizzard gradually subsided, and I was completely hopeless. All the way without words.

Finally I came back to Hangzhou.When I was walking on the edge of the West Lake, it was drizzling. I recalled everything I had experienced before, and thought of everyone's ending, and suddenly felt very tired. I don't know why, my tears flowed down, and I returned to my shop, as if I had returned to the time when nothing had happened. I originally thought that after I had done all this, there would be something left, but I didn't expect that there was nothing left. However, I realized that I can't stop, I have to go on, because there is still another ten years.
