Marvel: I am the leader of the mutant race

Chapter 194 Chapter 194: The Emperor and the Empress are above

This is a smooth passage.

On the stone wall of the passage, countless crystal gems in dark green and dark purple are dotted like stars. Perhaps the people in the Tarot Secret Realm simply do not think that anyone from the outside world will come here, so they do not stay in the bamboo sea in the real dimension. Any surveillance method, anyway, according to Yuri's perception, in this new world, there is no human being near everyone.

"Recover a little bit here and then we move on."

Although Xu Wenwu and Xu Xialing rarely make space jumps, the former has been the holder of the Ten Commandments for so many years, and his abnormal resistance is far beyond that of normal people. Therefore, except for Xu Xialing's slight discomfort, Yuri and the others No one showed anything strange.

A burst of life energy was sent out, and Xu Xialing soon became lively again. After a few drinks of water and something to eat, they adjusted themselves and headed towards the bright world outside the cave - the Tarot Secret Realm.

After walking out of the cave, Yuri discovered that it was actually in a towering mountain. The mountain was a bit steep, but it was not bare at all on the surface. There were flowers, plants and trees that were not present in various real dimensions. Like a blanket, everything in sight was tightly covered. Even Vanax, who didn't have much appreciation for natural landscapes, sincerely sighed: "It's so beautiful."

Just as he was watching, a high-pitched bird song came from the sky behind him. When Vanax heard the sound, he immediately turned around, only to see beautiful birds with blazing flames burning in their bodies in groups. Soaring through the sky.

"This is... Phoenix?"

Xu Wenwu stared at the group of birds opening and closing their wings in the sky, dumbfounded. He stared blankly at these magical creatures that usually only appeared in myths and legends appeared in front of him one by one, and finally realized sincerely that What kind of magic and incredible is hidden in the seemingly ordinary world that I have lived in for thousands of years.

"This is not a real phoenix."

Yuri patted Vannax who came closer and said with a smile, "Neither are you."

"The real phoenix disappeared in the long river of time together with the dragon clan countless years ago. These little guys with flaming bodies may be some other creatures with phoenix bloodline, but they are definitely not phoenixes."

The crowd continued to move forward. Along the way, they saw the graceful, snow-white nine-tailed fox, and the auspicious beast Qilin, which had a body like a musk deer and a tail like a dragon's tail, with colorful scales and a pair of horns. I saw Tuan Dijiang, a meatball shaped like a yellow cloth bag, with six legs and four wings, and no ears, eyes, mouth or nose...

What's amazing is that even if Xu Xialing's newborn calf is not afraid of tigers and takes the initiative to provoke them, these magical creatures that only appear in myths and legends do not show the slightest threat. They are so docile that they even have a few... Qilin, who looked naive and not too smart, took the initiative to get close to a few people and carried them on his back!
While everyone was laughing and letting the unicorns carry them on the soft grass, they didn't notice a few plump Dijiangs waving their wings and jumping in a certain direction. They sprinted over - they quickly brought the news of the arrival of outsiders to Tarot Village!
……

"Who is coming? Sign up to come!"

After Yuri and his party were slowly carried to their destination by Qilin, what they saw was the scene of tense swords and guns in front of them: a middle-aged man who should be named Guangbo in the memory of the traveler was holding a long stick, and A group of Tarot young men stood in front of them with an extremely sophisticated formation.

This ancient way of greeting brought back Xu Wenwu's dusty memories almost instantly. He cleared his throat and said loudly: "I am..."

"The map the Ancient One gave me!"

Yuri reached out to interrupt Xu Wenwu's registration, but gently threw the ancient scroll to the young version of "Guangbo" who was full of vigilance, and said sincerely: "We have no ill intentions."

To show his sincerity, he also asked Kate and others to get off the Qilin.

Yuri really doubts whether all the magical creatures here are the lowered version, otherwise it is impossible to explain why in myths and legends, super creatures with boundless mana and infinite power have turned into two idiots here Same.

But no one was destined to give him an answer to this question. The unicorns that carried them here stared at them for a long time before they realized that there were no more people sitting on them, and they didn't ask if they wanted to ride for a while longer. The guy walked around and disappeared from everyone's sight as if he had just woken up.

"It's really Kama Taj who's here!"

After confirming the origin of the scroll, Uncle Guang waved his hand to let the villagers behind him put down their weapons. Although there was no hostility towards Yuri and the others on his face, his tone became more anxious: "Reality Is there any irresistible enemy in the dimension? Has the Soul-devouring Beast found other entrances besides Tarot Village?"

"No no no!"

Yuri saw that he was no longer hostile to him, so he got closer and explained: "Everything is normal in the real dimension, there is no irresistible foreign enemy, and there is no invasion of soul-eating beasts as you said - I’m not here to ask you for help.”

"I'm here to help you completely solve the problems that have trapped you here."

Uncle Guang was stunned for a moment, and following Yuri's gaze, he saw the sealed gate that had been guarded by Tarot Village for generations, which made him startled: the problem of keeping them here?Is this young man referring to the soul-eating beast behind the sealed door? !
"My name is Luo Guang, you can call me Uncle Guang."

"Don't worry about this. Let me show you the Tarot first."

Quickly putting away the strange look on his face, he glanced at Xu Wenwu without any trace, who had ten metal rings on his arms, and his eyes stayed for a moment on Xu Xialing, who was looking at him curiously in his arms. Then he greeted Yuri with a smile and said: "The Tarot Secret Realm has been isolated from the world a long time ago. We don't know what the outside world has changed now, so if there is any lack of hospitality, I hope the master will forgive me. "

The young men holding weapons slowly retreated to do their own things, and Yuri and his party were led by Guangbo himself to visit Tarot Village on a routine basis.

"We have been living in the secret realm of Tarot for generations."

Guangbo spoke all in Chinese, but whether it was Yuri, Vanax or Kate, they could all hear clearly and there was no communication barrier, which made Guangbo's explanation more natural: "In these 4000 years Throughout time, our purpose of existence has always been to deal with some natural and man-made disasters that we hope will never happen again."

"We are the guardians of the Dark Portal."

"We swear to defend our homeland and your homeland outside the secret realm to the death, to ensure that they are protected from the soul-eating beasts behind the Dark Portal."

When Yuri heard Guangbo's words, he roughly understood his underlying meaning: there was nothing more than an extremely powerful enemy behind the sealed door. Thousands of years ago, their ancestors spent a huge price to completely seal it, so if If Yuri is not completely sure, he does not want to open the sealed door... and so on.

He didn't speak, just followed Guangbo silently.

If the soul-eating black dragon behind the sealed door is really only as good as the traveler's memory, then he must be [-]% sure to completely eliminate it. Xu Shangqi can use the Ten Commandments to It is completely destroyed by the power of the Ten Rings. There is no reason that Yuri, a person who has truly mastered the power of the Ten Rings, cannot do this.

Yuri just thought about it, and glanced at the huge lake next to the village without trace. Although he didn't see anything, his intuition told him that under the calm, mirror-like lake, there was an extremely kind person. guy is soundly asleep. …

"This is the sacrificial hall."

Following Guangbo's explanation and introduction, several people slowly came to a bright room full of candles. Seeing that there were not many people in the room, and with the addition of Yuri and his party who had just come in, the place was quite small. There are people around, some of them are sweeping, some are tidying up, but no matter who they are, they are quiet without making a sound.

"The tablets of our ancestors are stored here. It is a place where we condole and remember them."

After Guangbo nodded to the villagers who raised their heads to ask after noticing the arrival of several people, he suddenly turned and looked straight at Xu Wenwu, who was holding Xu Xialing and huddled at the back of the team.

"come here!"

Although his voice was not loud, his tone was filled with unimaginable anger and dissatisfaction. He looked at Xu Wenwu, who was cowering and hesitating and did not dare to move forward. He snorted coldly, took a few incense sticks from the side and lit them, and then went about his own business. He walked towards a certain direction of the shrine.

Yuri turned his head and looked at Xu Wenwu, patted his shoulder and called Kate and Vanax out of the door. After a quick glance, he had already seen Yingli's portrait, and now it was obviously the other person. Personal issues, out of politeness, he consciously went out to avoid.

"Don't we have to go further?"

On the small bridge outside the memorial hall, Kate looked at Yuri who was leaning on the guardrail with his eyes closed and basking in the sun with some confusion and confirmed: "As long as they turn around, they can see us."

"Need not."

Yuri waved his hand and looked at the scene in the sacrificial hall where Uncle Guang took Xu Xialing's hand and led her to identify the tablets while Xu Wenwu stood silently aside and said with a smile: "A little politeness is enough, why do you need so much? , you must know that we are a mutant race."

While the two were talking, Xu Wenwu in the memorial hall finally spoke for the first time:

"Yingli's parents...them?"

"Thank you!"

"gone!"

Guang Bo touched the head of Xu Xialing, who was holding her mother's portrait with a sad look on her face, turned around to look at Xu Wenwu and scolded him unceremoniously: "If it weren't for you, Yingli would be like us, safe and sound in the Tarot Secret Realm. We will live on earth for a lifetime, instead of just watching us from heaven like now!”

"Do you know how sad her parents were after you asked someone to send the news of Yingli's death and body back to Tarot... The white-haired person sent the black-haired person, but who can come to send that Where are the two old people who have been so unlucky for eight lifetimes that they met such an unlucky thing like you!?"

Xu Wenwu was pointed at his nose and scolded by the skinny middle-aged man in front of him who didn't know how many generations younger than him, but he had no intention of refuting at all. Under Xu Xialing's confused eyes, he picked up the incense stick He lit it, put the mat under his feet aside, knelt on the ground and kowtowed several times to the "Bang Bang Bang" that Guangbo called Yingli's parents.

"Humph."

Guangbo snorted coldly and wanted to scold him again, but a woman who looked younger than him suddenly walked out from inside the sacrificial hall. The moment the two met their eyes, the former looked away like a mouse seeing a cat. She curled her lips and said nothing, and the latter ignored her. She glanced at Xu Wenwu who was kneeling on the ground with his eyes closed and repenting. She ignored him and just squatted down and waved to Xu Xialing, who was standing timidly next to Guang Bo.

"Xia Ling, come."

She smiled kindly: "I am your mother's sister, Yingnan."

"Have you forgotten about me? I even visited you and your brother Shangqi when they were born!"

Although there were only a few words, this set of standard elder language quickly relaxed Xu Xialing's vigilant heart. She raised her head and glanced at Uncle Guang, who turned his head to pretend to be a fool, then looked at her father who was kneeling on the ground motionless, and then faced Yingnan called out timidly, "Auntie."

"Eh!"

Yingnan happily held Xu Xialing in her arms, and then gently rubbed her head to express intimacy. After seeing the latter completely relaxed, she asked curiously: "Where is your brother?" ?If I remember correctly, he should be a big guy now."

"Why didn't he come with him?"

In Yingnan's eyes, this topic should be a topic to continue to have a relationship with the little girl, but it made the latter hesitate and hesitate: Although she didn't know what it meant to tell the truth, even as a child, she knew that there were some Saying it makes people feel uncomfortable.

"He was forced to leave by me."

Fortunately, Xu Wenwu, who was kneeling on the ground, finally raised her head. She glanced at Yingnan in front of her, her eyes full of apology and self-blame: "In the years after Yingli left, I didn't do it because of my grief. Give them the love and care they deserve. Some of my wrong actions made these two children regard me as an enemy for a time. Xia Ling only recently reconciled with me..."

Yingnan looked at the man in front of him. Although he did not reprimand and accuse him like Guangbo, the coldness in his eyes had already shown his attitude. In fact, if it weren't for the card that Yuri pulled up with the word "Kama" written on it, Taj's tiger skin, there might have been a fight between the two.

"I'm sorry about everything that happened in the past."

Xu Wenwu glanced at his daughter who was held in Yingnan's arms. His eyes paused for a long time on the portrait of Yingli held in her arms. Under the flickering dim candlelight, there were countless seniors and seniors in the Taluo Village Shrine Hall. Under the gaze of his ancestors, he bowed deeply to Guangbo and Yingnan and solemnly swore: "But now, I will do my best to help you completely solve the hidden dangers that trouble you."

"The emperor and the earth are above me. If I violate this oath, I, Xu Wenwu, will be struck by lightning from the sky and die without a burial place!"
