Chapter 704: It's Time to End
Maybe there are indeed many coincidences in this world, but Mo Tianwei doesn't believe that the Gu family's current situation can be explained only by the word "coincidence".
In the past few days, there are many mysteries about what she has seen in the Gu family, and this is also the evidence that there is only a wise creature hidden behind it at this time.
First of all, according to the discussions of the people of the Gu family she has heard in the past few days, the Gu family should have been a big family in ancient times, and the history of the Xiuzhen family is often tens of thousands of years, such a long time, it is conceivable how many people will be in the Gu family, but now there are only more than 500 people living in the sword mound!
Even if it was the "weird disappearance incident" in Gu Nan's mouth, there would not be so many people left.
Mo Tianwei found a codex of the Gu family, which recorded that although the Gu family was in a slump after the incident, the family still had some background For the Xiuzhen family, hundreds of people, what kind of background!
"These people must have disappeared after coming to the Sword Shrine. ”
She had a guess in her mind, "I just don't know if it disappeared all at once, or did it disappear gradually?"
The former can be understood as someone in the Gu family may have found a problem, but their struggle failed, so only a few people are left.
The latter, it is even more terrifying When mortals raise livestock, they will not say that they will be slaughtered all at once, but generally take their time and find a target every once in a while.
Anyway, the Gu family is in such a strange place, even if someone does something, the Gu family can't find out at all!
In addition, Gu Sui, the head of the Gu family that Mo Tianwei had seen, knew about the Sword Sect, and he also remembered Lingxing Peak, if it would be refreshed every time the time came, what was going on?
Mo Tianwei guessed in his heart that the memories of the Gu family were only afraid that they would often be refreshed and refreshed, and they would forget most of the things, but they would automatically filter some important information to leave it behind, and arrange it into the memories of the past in a reasonable way, creating an illusion that they remembered the people who came.
This is not a difficult thing to do, in fact, anyone like Mo Tianwei who is not proficient in the art of divine souls can do it.
Putting down the scroll in her hand and looking at the sky that was getting darker, a strange light flashed in her eyes.
"Tonight, let's go to the courtyard at the entrance of the sword mound to find out the situation. ”
As the hour approached, there were not many people in the Gu family walking outside, and Mo Tianwei walked through the garden arranged with countless phantom arrays and came to the gate of the courtyard where he had been here once.
She didn't rush through the door and walk in, but let a sword golem come out and order it to test the situation.
Naturally, no one in the Gu family is her opponent, but this courtyard is related to the sword mound, maybe the caretaker trapped in the sword mound...... Or maybe someone else finds something wrong and will take action on her.
However, her worries seemed to be unnecessary, and after the sword golem pushed the door open and entered, she searched back and forth in the courtyard many times, but she did not find any trace of the world passage or the void rift.
"It seems that only the Gu family can open the passage to the Sword Shrine. ”
Mo Tianwei ordered the sword puppet to break off a branch of the ancient tree in the courtyard and take it out of the courtyard, and then returned to Tibet.
Since nothing can be found now, maybe wait a few days, and when the four little guys from Tianlin Mansion are about to enter the Sword Shrine, they can find the key to the problem.
At this time, Mo Tianwei had to sigh, the distraction period was really wonderful, as long as the distraction was put there, under normal circumstances, even if the distraction was broken, it would not damage the deity, which was equivalent to a lot of lives in an instant, it was so convenient!
Time passed in the blink of an eye, and soon it was time for the sword shrine to open again.
Mo Tianwei himself was still in Tibet, and the distractions were one following Gu Nan, the other following Gu Sui, and the other few were hiding in the several secret places of the Gu family that had been discovered in the past few days, and the last one was following the people of Tianlin Mansion, planning to wait for them to try to see if they could sneak in quietly when they entered the sword mound.
The first person to move was not Gu Sui, nor was he from Tianlin Mansion, but Gu Nan.
At this time, it was already late at night, the night was deep, there were no stars and no moon, Gu Nan, who had already fallen asleep, suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes flashed with an irrepressible horror light.
It's not the first time she's broken free from the endless loop and regained some of her memories, but with failed attempts after attempts, she's had no hope of escaping the predicament in front of her.
Mo Tianwei saw that her face was numb and sad, and she knew that the Gu Nan in front of her should be the Gu Nan in the cycle, not the Gu Nan who asked her for help not long ago.
"In the normal cycle, Gu Nan realized that the situation was wrong, but after tonight, she would forget everything again, and she would not be able to remember the past until the next cycle was nearing the end......"
"Why is it just Gu Nan, why can't the rest of the Gu family?"
Mo Tianwei thought to himself, if all this was really controlled by someone behind the scenes, how could they not find out Gu Nan's strange methods against the Gu family, why didn't it work for Gu Nan alone?
At this time, Gu Nan had already walked out of her room under the control of the mysterious power and walked towards the mysterious courtyard.
Mo Tianwei followed behind her, but suddenly had another thought, could it be that there were people like Gu Nan in the Gu family before, but they were all dead?
Soon after Gu Nan climbed the tree and hid, the two brothers, Gu Sui and Gu Yong, also came to the mysterious courtyard, and they were no different from the past.
And soon, the four people from Tianlin Mansion had also arrived, they looked at Gu Sui, the youngest of them was full of curiosity, and although the other three were also curious in their eyes, their expressions could still be steady.
After the four of them saluted, Gu Sui let out a faint "um" and said, "Everyone has arrived, come with this seat." ”
He turned and took two steps forward, his figure flickering slightly, and disappeared into the courtyard.
The four people of Tianlin Mansion were all taken aback, but they immediately reacted that a formation should have been laid out here to cover up the real secret.
After the four of them followed, the two brothers Gu Yong and Gu Jin also disappeared, and Mo Tianwei hurriedly let the distraction chase after them.
However, it is a pity that this distraction really disappeared after following the footsteps of everyone just now, and then returned to Mo Tianwei's body along the ubiquitous avenue.
"Humph......"
Distracted and didn't see anything.
Mo Tianwei glanced at the big tree in the courtyard again, Gu Nan was still trembling on the tree, his eyes were teary, and he looked desperate and pitiful.
Mo Tianwei didn't leave, she knew that Gu Sui would come back soon after taking people to the Sword Shrine, she wanted to see if Gu Sui had found out if she was distracted.
After a while, Gu Sui and the three came back, and they were talking.
"It's so strange, there seems to be a strange fluctuation just now, Dad, Xiao Jin, do you feel it?" Gu Yong felt very strange.
Gu Sui glanced at him, "Okay, this is not something we should take care of." ”
Their Gu family is just a family of tomb keepers, and they couldn't get along outside at the beginning, if it weren't for this back road, they would definitely have to follow it......
Thinking of this, Gu Sui was stunned, with what?
He couldn't remember it all of a sudden.
"Alas, it's old. ”
Gu Sui sighed and left the courtyard with the two brothers.
When the three of them had just walked out of this courtyard, it was as if a drop of water had dripped into the void where the entrance to the sword shrine was located, and the surrounding time and space rippled in circles.
The ripples spread out, swept past Gu Nan who was hiding in the tree, and the three Gu Sui who walked out of the courtyard spread to the entire Gu family.
Everything was still.
But it was only for a moment, and soon, the surrounding scene changed, and the movements of everyone in the entire Gu family began to be reversed, and the words spoken were reversed, and the flowers that had been thanked bloomed again and turned into buds, and the falling leaves flew back to the branches and became fresh and green again......
If this kind of scene is seen for the first time, it will feel quite strange, but Mo Tianwei has seen similar scenes with a gilt jade crown before, and this kind of "time rewind" of the small pattern really can't arouse any interest in her.
At this time, all her efforts were focused on hiding and protecting herself.
She is an outsider, and the impact of the ripples of time and space on her is far less than that of the Gu family, but when the ripples spread, if there is a small stone that is in the way, it is also easy to find.
Mo Tianwei couldn't use her body to incarnate the heavens and the earth, because the surrounding world had been controlled by the ripples of time and space, and not only could she not hide it, but it would accelerate her death.
Therefore, she chose to merge the Dao and temporarily hide all the distractions in the Dao, leaving only a wisp of true self in the outside world, so that although it will still be affected to a certain extent, the impact will be greatly reduced and will not be detected.
The "time rewinding" process didn't last long, and it was over after only a dozen breaths.
Mo Tianwei ended the fusion path, and many distractions were withdrawn from her body, she looked up at the clear sky, and thoughtfully walked out of this courtyard, and returned to the library in an instant.
Although this night was a little dangerous, she did not go in vain, and she actually caught some clues.
For example, she was already sure that the Gu family's current death situation was controlled by someone behind the scenes, because in that time-space ripple, there was a powerful divine thought!
Generally speaking, it is impossible for a low-level monk to perceive the divine thoughts of a high-level monk, but if a high-level monk is undisguised and his divine thoughts are mighty, then as long as he has divine sense, he can detect it.
That divine thought probably didn't expect someone in the Gu family to sneak in, not only did he not hide it at all, but he didn't even investigate carefully, otherwise he wouldn't have found her at all.
"Full of ...... Contempt, malice......" Mo Tianwei thought of the aura in that divine thought, "It can't really be the same as I thought, right?"
If so, the Gu family would be too miserable.
Mo Tian thought about it slightly, but soon she noticed a problem that the Gu family's time had not yet recovered.
The Gu family's time was frozen, and she was the only one who could move freely in this frozen time and space, which was a wonderful feeling, as if she was not kicked offline when a large holographic online game system was being maintained.
...... In his last life, Mo Tianwei wanted to know what NPCs were doing when the system was maintained.
After a brief period of novelty, she suddenly realized that this was not good news for her, who knows how long the maintenance of this system will last!
"Gu Nan said that she would return to the original point after each cycle ended, but she didn't say that there was still system maintenance in the middle!" Mo Tianwei felt very strange, "If it is Gu Nan who has not broken free from the cycle, it is normal for her not to realize that something is wrong, because she is frozen by time and space, but since Gu Nan has been able to escape and has an accurate escape time, how can she not know ......"
Thinking of this, she suddenly paused.
What Gu Nan said at the time was that she could encounter a chance to escape once every ten years, could it be now?
And the time for each maintenance is equivalent to a year in the outside world, so she can only stay outside for a year at most?
Mo Tianwei felt that this guess ...... Maybe it makes some sense.
But now Gu Nan can't get out, and it doesn't make much sense to think about it so much, so she continues to nest in the library to read.
In a weird environment, people tend to think a lot, and if she was Mo Tianwei before, she was afraid that she would be a little irritable, but now she doesn't take it seriously at all, and even feels a lot quieter.
Looking at it, her hand that was about to turn the page suddenly stopped, and she saw a record about the bloodline of the Gu family.
Mo Tianwei was reading a travelogue written by the Gu family, he wrote that on a certain day, he went to explore a powerful relic mansion, wanting to obtain the inheritance of that great power, and he didn't want to be preempted by others, so he wanted to leave, but in order to protect the next generation, the great power wanted to kill all the people who entered the relic mansion, and when he was seriously injured and bleeding all over, he escaped from the relic mansion inexplicably!
Afterwards, he speculated that it might be luck that he accidentally touched a certain teleportation array in the Relic Mansion.
But Mo Tianwei felt that it was impossible for a great power to kill someone, how could he give him a chance to escape to the teleportation array, when the great power was mentally retarded!
Mo Tianwei believes that this is likely to be related to the Gu family's bloodline.
"The bloodline of the Gu family, does it have anything to do with space?" she guessed, "For example, can you open any door?"
Although he felt that there was some truth, but in the end this was just an example, and Mo Tianwei could not make a judgment based on this, so he kept this book at hand and continued to read other books.
It is also her bad luck, many of the classics about the secrets of the Gu family here can only be seen by the Gu family's bloodline, she once followed a few Gu family members to look behind, but she couldn't see anything, just like she could see it clearly, and the Gu family could take it, but she was just a treasure trove treasure that she couldn't hold.
It's very uncomfortable.
Mo Tianwei snorted lightly and looked out the window.
It was also at this time that the system maintenance ended, the space-time freeze disappeared, and the Gu family started a cycle again, not knowing what had happened in the past countless years.
Sometimes, ignorance is a kind of happiness, a rare happiness.
Mo Tianwei saw that someone sent the worship post into the mansion again, and then several young monks entered the Gu Mansion and lived in the guest courtyard not far away, and Gu Nan's children also went to secretly tell the most beautiful one of them her little secret, and was reprimanded and arrested by Gu Xiang after that......
She closed the book: "It's time for this to end." ”
