Chapter 5 Colin
After returning home, Chen Qing immediately went to the old warehouse.

He did not pick up the ancient mirror directly, but started the search again, investigating every possible corner in the old warehouse.

When I was locked in the old warehouse, I just looked at the mirror, but I couldn't conduct a thorough search, so I missed many corners.

Chen Qing felt that perhaps there were many strange objects like ancient mirrors hidden in those corners.

But what made him a little disappointed was that even though he found the genealogy of his ancestors, he couldn't find any other special artifacts like ancient mirrors.

Although there are many items that are old, they are not even close to being antiques. They are daily necessities that can be regarded as "recording traces of the times". If you put them on the flea market, it is estimated that no one will buy them for ten yuan a dozen.

As for the genealogy, Chen Qing also briefly looked through it, and was speechless to find that this thing was purely used by his ancestors to add gold to himself.

If the records in the genealogy are really followed, then the history of Chen Qing’s family is estimated to date back to the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors period, or even earlier to the barbaric period...

There was no writing at that time, so how could the oral history be recorded so clearly?Besides, as far as Chen Qing knew, they had moved to many places in the past two generations alone, so it was impossible to have such a continuous incense.

"This thing can be read as a documentary novel."

Weighing the genealogy in his hand, Chen Qing looked a little disgusted: "And it's the kind of fantasy novel that boasts and doesn't draft. How can anyone write on their family tree that they killed the White Snake and conquered the Ancestral Dragon together with the Great Ancestor? ?”

It's outrageous!

Throwing aside the genealogy, which in his opinion could only be placed on the corner of the table, Chen Qing rubbed his hands and looked at the ancient mirror again.

He was now a little confused about how to communicate with the people in the mirror.

First of all, I have set a rather huge tone before: "Lord of Truth". Just listening to it makes people feel that it is an extremely noble and vast existence.

Such a name can allow Chen Qing to gain the respect of the other party in the early stage. Regardless of whether the other party believes it or not, at least the appearance of the coin means that the person in the mirror has indeed shown respect.

The problem this brings is that if Chen Qing cannot continue to show the ability that matches his title, the people in the mirror will sooner or later become suspicious as long as they are not stupid.

Even if this process will go very slowly because of Chen Qing's extremely high tone of "Lord of Truth", as long as time goes by, Chen Qing will be unable to show anything and his ability will definitely be questioned by the other party.

"So, two options."

Taking a deep breath, Chen Qing whispered: "Either go at a fast pace, make a few profits and then leave, and then pretend that you have never seen an ancient mirror."

"Either I can take an obscure and mysterious route, answer questions with questions, explain questions with questions, so that the other party can't figure out the details, and let the other party construct an image of me in their own mind."

There is almost no need to choose between these two directions.

Chen Qing always knew what he needed.

He wants to use the supernatural power of this ancient mirror to help him cure his illness as much as possible!
Therefore, he will not use the first method unless he is at the end of his rope.

Only by constantly exploring the truth of that world can we find the possibility of his recovery!

"Then the next question is clear."

Pointing his fingers unconsciously on the table, Chen Qing said to himself: "Where the other party is confused, I need to be silent; where the other party understands, I need to disrupt; where the other party is surprised, I need to pursue."

To confuse the other party's thoughts and let them figure it out on their own, this is Chen Qing's next plan!

This is the same as the "truth" in those literary works.

The truth is never something that people can understand, but something that brings more confusion to people!
Temporarily laying the groundwork for his follow-up plan, Chen Qing raised a smile on his lips.

“So the next step is to start trying to build.”

he muttered to himself.

Then, he flexed his fingers slightly.

Immediately afterwards, he tapped the ancient mirror in front of him with his white knuckles.

Accompanied by several dull "tuk-tuk" sounds, the mirror surface of the ancient mirror moved slowly but firmly according to his will.Like the ocean of destiny moved by invisible hands.

After a few minutes of this.

The entire mirror surface was once again covered in a dark shadow.

Distorted shadows and distorted sounds echoed in Chen Qing's ears just like yesterday.

This strange sound doesn't actually sound pleasant.

But at least what was echoing in Chen Qing's ears at this moment was his rekindled... voice of hope! ——
Column was wrapped in thick clothes and gritted his teeth as he walked on the cold snow-capped mountains.

"Wait a minute, Jack, wait a minute..."

He murmured to himself: "Brother will be here soon, and I will find that thing right away, and then I can help you cure your illness!"

As he spoke, he resisted the hurricane that seemed to be able to cut his face open, and stepped heavily into the snow.

The weather was dark and gloomy, and even the sunlight became extremely dim.No ray of light can penetrate the mountains covered with thick snow. Everything is so gloomy and cold, just like Column's heart at this moment.

"Cough cough..."

Colin coughed while recalling what the pharmacist in the small town said.

"I can't cure your brother's disease. It's not just me, I guess no one in the entire 'Sith Federation' can cure it. Only before the catastrophe, people at that time might have a way."

This news almost made Colin despair.

Fortunately, the pharmacist hesitated for a long time and finally pointed him to a clear path.

"You know that mountain at the door, right?"

The doctor said: "That is the mountain after being 'polluted'. On that mountain, there may be things before the catastrophe. If you want to try your luck, that is probably the only place where it is possible."

After hearing the news, Colin immediately packed his bags and prepared to go to the place mentioned by the doctor without hesitation.

That mountain was still a small hill before the legendary "catastrophe".However, as the world undergoes drastic changes and pollution spreads, the mountain gradually becomes taller.Even because of the power of pollution, this peak in the warm temperate zone is covered with snow that never melts all year round.

Because of this, there is only a way to save his brother nearby and on that mountain!

Stumbling deeper into the wind and snow, Colon gritted his teeth and finally lit an oil lamp that had been tied to his chest.

It's strange to say that such a small kerosene lamp can actually light up a faint flame despite the freezing weather and blizzard.Even the wind and frost swords can't extinguish this small flame, as tough as the low-lying grass on a rainy day.

With this faint light, the blizzard around Colin gradually melted away.

This is a secret of Colin - a "forbidden object" he obtained from an adventure somewhere.

The ability of this forbidden object is that as long as it is lit and stays within the light range of the oil lamp, it can temporarily resist abnormal conditions.However, it can only resist and cannot be treated, and it is also temporary, so Colin cannot use it on his younger brother.

But it allows Colin to climb snowy mountains.

And now, with the help of this light, Colin headed deeper into the snow-capped mountains step by step.

Time has lost its meaning at this moment, the lights are slightly burning, and Colin's every step seems so heavy.

I don’t know how long I walked, but when the light from the oil lamp was almost exhausted.

After the blizzard that seemed to cover the sky.

An old, dilapidated cabin quietly appeared in front of Colin.
