"The same face as the people from Blue Star, but a strange language..."

While Zhang Taichu was thinking, he looked at Heiyu Qingqian who was secretly looking at him, then he took a few steps forward, stretched out his finger and pointed it directly at the other's head in the latter's blushing face.

"Relax your mind."

Zhang Taichu used his spiritual power to comfort the other person, and his fingers touched the other person's forehead without any hindrance.

Heiyu Qingqian couldn't help but close her eyes, feeling the gentleness coming from the other party, without any sense of crisis or hostility rising in her heart.

Allowing other people's thoughts to penetrate deeply into her sea of ​​consciousness is an act equivalent to entrusting her life to them, representing her unconditional trust in her savior.

Although the rest of the team members couldn't help but worry, they ultimately did not take any action to stop it.

Zhang Taichu's thoughts invaded the other party's body and covered his sea of ​​consciousness. He only obtained the part of cognitive memory related to language and mastered it in a short time. After completing this step, he withdrew his mental power and returned to reality.

"Hello."

He smiled, raised his hand, and greeted the people in front of him in a language that was unfamiliar to him just now.

This strange tone is similar to the language of the foggy city on the blue planet. The consonants are pronounced strongly and gently, mixed with a lot of nasal sounds, which makes it appear elegant and mellow.

Heiyu Qingqian, who had just woken up, immediately understood what Zhang Taichu had just done. She stood there blankly, looking a little confused.

As for the other natives, they were not surprised to hear their savior speaking the same language as them, and thought that the other party was just from another city.

"who are you?"

"You come from another world?"

After coming to his senses, Heiyu Qingqian looked at Zhang Taichu in front of him and subconsciously took a step back, appearing at a loss.

How could a person living in this world not know about the language that has been unified for countless tens of thousands of years and yet have to get it from her mind?

Qing Qian kept convincing herself to be as cautious as possible towards the mysterious visitor in front of her, even though the other party had just saved the lives of their entire team.

But when she saw the faint smile on the other person's face, she could not feel any hostility and could not help but give him trust. The beautiful scene of the golden light filling the sky kept appearing in her mind.

As for the other members of the White Crane Group, after hearing their captain's exclamation, they looked at each other, their hair disheveled in the wind.

……

time flies.

After a while.

As the conversation came to an end, everyone present finally understood some of the origins of this savior.

Zhang Taichu also gained a general understanding of the world he lived in, and at the same time became more certain of his judgment.

According to the indigenous people, the land under our feet is their homeland. There are eight large cities in total, and each city is home to millions of people.

The cities are named after the Eight Trigrams, and they come from the city of "Li". The eight cities are located in different corners of the territory, forming a front line to strictly guard against the invasion of evil spirits. This is also the inherent duty of every living being born in the city.

Guarding the line, fighting against the evil spirits, and dying in battle.

It is the life of countless people and the most ordinary life trajectory.

"This world has no sun or moon, no day or night, and all living things have long lives. There is demonic energy, but the primordial energy is also rich... Isn't this an extraordinary place?"

"So it is very likely that I am in an extraordinary place?"

He was thinking in his mind, recalling the introduction of their hometown by the indigenous people in front of him, and looking up at the eternally dark sky, his guess became more and more certain.

According to Heiyu Qingqian, she is 912 years old this year. Although she is the team leader, she is the youngest in the team. Compared with her long life of three or four thousand years, she has just reached adulthood.

Even Zhang Taichu was surprised when he first heard this information, especially after confirming that both parties had the same concept and definition of the passage of time, he was even more impressed by the girl's long life.

However, after realizing that if this world is indeed in the extraordinary land, then compared with the sixty-fold time difference with the Blue Star, everything can be understood.

Just as he expected, although the people living in this world have long lives, they also have many limitations due to the difference in the speed of time flow.

For example, for the indigenous people of this world, the gestation period is extended to sixty years, and the rate of physical maturity is also slowed down by sixty times. It takes a full nine hundred years for a child who cannot walk to grow into a sufficiently mature "adult".

If Hei Yu's 900 years old is converted to Blue Star, she would only be a 15-year-old girl.

However, Hei Yu Qing Qian, who grew up in endless battles, is much more mature than ordinary girls on the Blue Star.

"I only explored a very limited space in the extraordinary land before. It turns out that there is life in it...

"So Wu Gensheng was born in this extraordinary place, from such an environment."

"Hei Yu said that she had never heard of the names of Wu Gensheng and Feng Yao, and she didn't know that there were other visitors from other worlds in this world. Tsk... then where are they?"

Just as Zhang Taichu was immersed in his thoughts, Hei Yu's voice brought him back to reality.

"Ahem, although it may be a little impolite, I still want to ask, are you really less than a hundred years old? In your world, is it true that most people can only live to over a hundred years old?"

"So you look young, but you're already dying?"

Hei Yu Qing Qian asked in the quietest voice possible to show that she had no intention of offending anyone.

The other members of the White Crane Group behind her also showed curiosity on their faces.

Zhang Taichu shook his head in a helpless smile, then patiently explained to them the difference between Blue Star and this world. Not everyone possesses extraordinary powers. Ordinary people have a short lifespan, but mature quickly. Extraordinary people can refine Qi and have a longer lifespan.

His case was rather special, as he lived longer than most people.

After hearing this, everyone immediately understood that the so-called special probably means - extremely powerful!

After both parties had a general understanding of each other, the members of the White Crane Group completely let down their guard against their savior and took the initiative to invite him to return to the city.

Zhang Taichu readily agreed and followed the crowd, running in the vast purple Gobi Desert and approaching the city.

During this process, both sides also discussed each other's world to deepen their understanding.

But most of the time, it was Hei Yu Qing Qian who was giving an excited monologue alone. Her face turned red when she got excited. She was completely different from the icy beauty she had shown in the previous fight. She looked more like an innocent and simple girl.

"So your world is a sphere. How magical! Our world is a very large flat land. From the first city to the last city, the distance is a full 100,000 miles. It's a pity that I have never left Licheng since I was a child."

"So you can see the sun every day in your world? What does the sun look like? Isn't it beautiful? Just like the golden light you emitted earlier... It's warm and comfortable when it shines on my body."

"Are there really colorful flowers in your world?"

"Wow, it's just like the paradise described in the legend, with big green trees and azure blue sea... We only have dirty demonic energy, polluted monsters, and deformed black and gray plants here. I really envy you."

"I really want to see the real sun one day, to be warmed by the golden sunshine... I really want to see your green forests and blue sea, the place that makes me dream."

Heiyu Qingqian listened to Zhang Taichu's patient explanation while introducing the world he lived in. At the same time, he expressed his feelings and felt more and more the huge difference between the two worlds.

"Actually, if you think about it, the legends passed down from generation to generation in your city describe the Blue Star, don't they?"

"Perhaps you are also from the Blue Planet. A long, long time ago, for some unknown reason, you migrated to this place until now."

"Or, could it be that long ago, ancestors from the Blue Planet arrived here and brought these stories and legends with them?"

Zhang Taichu felt that there were many similarities between the two worlds, such as the concept of the passage of time. Although there is no difference between day and night, there are still the same time units, and there are also legends about the sun, green trees, and the sea... almost Certainly, there is some kind of connection between the two worlds.

Hei Yu Qing Qian shook his head: "I don't know about that. Even my great-great-grandmother who is four thousand years old can't explain the origin of the city."

"But according to the legends passed down by our elders, Li City has existed for tens of thousands of years. It has existed since the beginning of the era, and it still stood when the era ended... In this case, as long as the city is still there, the evil spirits can't harm us."

As she spoke, her body, which had regained a lot of strength, walked faster and faster. With each step she took, she could easily cover a distance of dozens or even a hundred feet. It was like she was flying on the ground.

The rest of the White Crane Group members were also traveling in the same way, and their physical strength appeared extremely powerful.

"Because they have lived in the extraordinary land since birth, the natives here are much stronger than the aliens on Blue Star, but their physiques have also been polluted by the devil's energy, and they have almost no talent to speak of."

“So even if a native like Hei Yu has a very good talent and has grown for 900 years, he is only at the same level as Ling Yu today.”

"But this Miss Kuroba is only a squad leader of the Survey Corps. If her rank is raised further... this is truly a terrifying Inhuman army. With just one city, they possess power comparable to that of the Inhumans on Blue Star."

"But guarding a city for eternity and fighting against the evil spirits endlessly... is indeed a sad fate. No wonder Wu Gensheng wanted to take the baby away from this world. No wonder..."

Zhang Taichu also had a lot of thoughts, and the more he understood this world, the more he felt.

"If there is a chance, I can take you to see the world where I live."

He used his magical power to shrink the earth into an inch to hurry on his way, while speaking to Hei Yu beside him.

"really?"

"That's awesome, can we really go?"

Upon hearing this, the black-haired girl immediately revealed a surprised smile, like a rose blooming in the dark world.

Zhang Taichu smiled and nodded.

Because this world has no sun or moon and is in eternal darkness, the passage of time cannot be confirmed by the displacement of the sun.

About two hours later.

Zhang Taichu and the White Crane Group have walked out of a territory of 500 miles. The purple sand on the Gobi Desert has begun to lighten in color, mixed with gray, red and black, and gradually there are more signs of life.

There are cactus-like creatures, shriveled vines, clumps of weeds clinging to rocks, and large trees without leaves but full of strange fruits...

All the plants were either gray and black or a blinding scarlet. There was not a trace of green at all.

The creatures living there are similar to lizards and weasels, but they are much larger, with fangs in their mouths and bone spurs on their backs. They look much more ferocious than those on Blue Star.

Occasionally there was the sound of birds flapping their wings in the sky, but upon closer inspection, they looked as ugly as bats.

Hei Yu Qing Qian said: "We are now very close to the city. The dangerous elements have been cleared out long ago. The remaining living creatures are all harmless and weak monsters."

"Really powerful monsters are either kept in captivity as meat or live in places where few people go."

As she spoke, she took the next step and reached the top of a sand dune that was dozens of feet high. She stopped and pointed to the far distance, and said to Zhang Taichu excitedly: "Look, that's my hometown - Licheng."

Zhang Taichu, who arrived shortly after, looked in the direction of the other party's finger and indeed saw the huge city stretching across the Gobi Desert more than ten miles away.

The city is a thousand feet high and stretches for a hundred miles, with its tail disappearing into the darkness like a mountain range with no end in sight.

Dots of beacon towers can be seen on it, glowing like grains of rice. Firelights can be seen hanging in them every few hundred feet. At a glance, the stars are like the Milky Way in the sky, floating into the darkness in the distance, and there is no end in sight. .

Zhang Taichu thought that he was still watching from a distance. If he were to visit the city in person, he would be even more shocked. He couldn't help but praise it, "What a big city."

Chapter 317: The Pig-Headed Man Who Didn’t Take a Bath for Ten Years; Twisted

Hearing the praise from the guests from another world, the members of the White Crane Group all showed pride on their faces.

"According to the old priest, our city is 1,100 feet high and 500 miles long. There is a gate every 50 miles, for a total of ten gates."

"The closest one to us right now is Gate C, which is guarded by our First Survey Corps."

"Come on, guest from afar, I'll take you in now!"

As Hei Yu spoke, he took a big step and flew down from the top of the huge sand dune. His cape fluttered behind him. He flew across a distance of hundreds of feet like a bird and landed in the vast Gobi Desert. He turned into a tiny figure like an ant. Then he took another step and rode the huge Qi wave to cross a large distance again...

"My benefactor, hurry up and follow me. When we get home, we will have delicious wine and delicious food!"

The strong man Aru shouted excitedly, bent his knees and squatted, then soared into the sky and rushed towards the city gate like a cannonball.

The rest of the White Crane Group members also spread their hooves and ran away wildly.

"Come on!"

In just a few breaths, the crowd ran several miles and turned back to shout at Zhang Taichu.

Zhang Taichu smiled softly, and when he took the next step, he turned into a streak of light and flew away, easily keeping up with the crowd.

-

It doesn't take a while.

When the group stopped again, they had already arrived at the foot of the thousand-foot-high city wall.

It was not until then that Zhang Taichu saw the true appearance of the city wall, which was made up of huge black stones as big as buildings.

The surface of the boulder exudes a dark iron-like glow, and they are so tightly connected to each other that only a barely visible black gap can be seen.

Just one huge rock is enough to make a person look as small as an ant. Millions of huge rocks piled up together form a magnificent city that cannot be found anywhere else on this blue planet.

"I thought that after standing for tens of thousands of years, the outer walls should be covered in blood, damaged and worn out. But now it looks brand new, as if it was just built."

Facing Zhang Taichu's doubts, Hei Yu Qingqian smiled and explained: "The city wall has a special structure, hiding a large formation. What you see now is just the most ordinary appearance. If the evil spirits come, the formation will be activated and ignite a blazing flame, turning all the filth into nothingness, and the damaged places will also repair themselves."

"I still remember that eighty years ago, when an extremely huge tide of demons arrived, the entire five hundred li long city wall was ablaze. The flames extended thousands of miles to both ends and connected to the next city. That spectacular scene... I will never forget it!"

Zhang Taichu's eyes were bright, and he nodded, "The ten thousand mile long flame array is indeed spectacular."

As he spoke, he looked at the "C Gate" of the city again. It was about ten feet wide and thirty feet high. It was made entirely of black metal with extremely complex patterns engraved on the surface. Because it was tightly closed, it was impossible to tell how thick it was.

Zhang Taichu asked, "Such a huge city gate must weigh hundreds of thousands of pounds. I don't think it can be opened by manpower, right?"
