Chapter 804 Guiding the way
After spending some time in the cave, Zhao Aimin and the traveler finally decided to continue their journey.The blizzard was still raging outside, but they were no longer intimidated because they had a clearer idea of their goals.
Zhao Aimin raised his head, looked at the wind and snow at the entrance of the cave, and said: "We can't stay here anymore. We need to choose a route and continue moving forward. Maybe the universe will guide us in the direction."
The traveler agreed with his decision and lit the last candle.They pored over the map and their previous notes, trying to find a way forward.Then, Zhao Aimin made a suggestion: "Our previous journey was full of challenges and unknowns, but perhaps, we can look for some clues, some signs to better understand our mission."
The traveler thought about this suggestion and then nodded: "Yes, we can look back on our previous experiences and look for clues related to the prophecy. Perhaps this will help us better understand our mission and the way forward."
They began to look back on their previous journey and recall all the people and things they encountered.Zhao Aimin reconsidered his premonition and the appearance of the strange man.They match this information with possible routes on a map, trying to find clues so they can choose the right route.
Finally, Zhao Aimin pointed to an area on the map and said: "Perhaps, we should move in this direction. It seems to be consistent with previous experiences and clues."
They began to move towards the newly chosen route, trying to cross the wind-snow-swept grassland.Zhao Aimin still felt uneasy in his heart, but he knew that they must go on firmly.
Suddenly the traveler broke the silence, pointed ahead and said: "Look, there is a light there."
Zhao Aimin looked up and indeed saw a faint light in the distance, like a lonely star twinkling in the blizzard. "Maybe it was a shelter, or a sign," he speculated.
The two decided to head towards that light, hoping to find a safe place.Their pace quickened, filled with anticipation.However, as they got closer to the light, they discovered that it was not an ordinary shelter, but a huge stone building.
The doors of the building were open as if to welcome them.They walked in and discovered it was an ancient temple.The walls are covered with mystical symbols and prophetic murals.
Zhao Aimin approached the wall and carefully observed the murals. His mood became nervous and excited.The traveler came up to him and asked, "What did you see?"
Zhao Aimin pointed to a picture on the mural and said: "There is a prophet here, just like me. He is holding an ancient book and seems to be passing on wisdom. This may be the clue we are looking for, about prophecy. clue."
The traveler also fell into deep thought, and then said: "Perhaps this temple is to protect the wisdom and inheritance of prophecy. We can find more answers here."
Deep in the ancient temple, Zhao Aimin and the travelers continue to search for clues about the prophecy.They found a small pharmacy with dried herbs and bottles and jars hanging on the walls.There seems to be a lot of valuable knowledge hidden in the temple.
Suddenly, the traveler's face turned pale, his fingers trembled, and his eyes showed anxiety.He pointed to a medicine bottle with the words "Deadly Poison" written on it.
Zhao Aimin immediately understood the seriousness of the problem.He approached the traveler and asked with concern: "Have you been poisoned? Is it the conspiracy of that strange man?"
The traveler gritted his teeth and nodded, his voice full of pain: "Yes, that man spread poisonous snow in the blizzard, and I accidentally inhaled the poisonous gas."
Zhao Aimin hurriedly checked the traveler's symptoms, then turned around and started looking for herbs, trying to find a way to save him.He scanned the vials, searching for an herb to counteract the poison, and ran his fingers through ancient scrolls, searching for the secret to the antidote.
Finally, Zhao Aimin found the antidote in a bottle labeled "Life-saving Herb".He ground the drug into powder and carefully poured it into the traveler's mouth.
The traveler swallowed the medicine and felt a warm force spread rapidly throughout his body. His breathing gradually calmed down and his face gradually returned to normal.
Feeling relieved, Zhao Aimin said: "You will be fine, we succeeded. But the strange man's tricks are becoming more and more obvious, and we must remain vigilant."
The traveler nodded in agreement, his eyes flashing with determination: "We cannot let him escape. This crisis will be our motivation to move forward. We will find him, solve the mystery of the prophecy, and at the same time protect wisdom from being destroyed." abuse."
Zhao Aimin and the traveler continued to search for clues in the temple, but the traveler's poisoning made them more vigilant about the conspiracy of the strange man.They realized that the actions of this strange man were no accident. He may be well versed in the mysteries of prophecy, and he also knew how to use it to confuse and threaten others.
Zhao Aimin mused: "It all seems to be related to the prophecy. The strange man seems to be trying to stop us, or at least interfere with our journey. We must find him and understand his true purpose."
The traveler clenched his fists tightly with a firm gaze: "Yes, we can't let him succeed. But he seems to have understood our movements, and we need to be more careful and cautious."
Suddenly, a voice came from the depths of the temple, the voice was sinister and mocking: "You are so smart, you actually discovered my existence."
Zhao Aimin and the traveler immediately looked around alertly, but could not see anyone.The voice continued: "I have been observing you, and your pursuit will not have good results. The prophecy is just an illusion, and there is nothing worth pursuing."
The traveler waved his spear and shouted, "Who's there? Come out and face us!"
After a burst of sneers, the figure of a strange man emerged from the shadows.His face was cold and unpredictable, and his eyes were full of ridicule: "Do you think you can change your destiny? The prophecy is just a scam, a trick to fool people."
Zhao Aimin stood beside the traveler and said firmly: "No matter what the truth is, we have come this far and will not give up easily. Your conspiracy will not stop us."
The strange man sneered and said: "Then, let's see who will win in the end." Then, he turned into a burst of black smoke and disappeared into the shadow of the temple.
