Chapter 370 Things of that era
Speaking of Nuwa, I am afraid that except those foreigners who are not familiar with ancient Eastern myths, any Chinese should have heard of the legend of Nuwa creating humans and repairing the sky. In the game "Heaven and Earth" that is mixed with Eastern and Western myths and legends, the ancestor of Eastern and Western humans will naturally not be excluded. Otherwise, there would be no ancient artifacts like the so-called "Nuwa Stone".
Since this npc calls us "the descendant of Nuwa", there is no doubt that it or he should be on the same generation as Nuwa. Even if it is not, he should be an old guy who has lived for more than tens of thousands of years.
But now, Yunyun and I don’t know how to answer this question.
Logically speaking, the birthplaces that Yunyun and I chose to enter the game are all in the Western continent. In this way, we have no connection with Nuwa in the game. Because there is no doubt that even if there is a saying in this game that Nuwa creates humans, it is limited to the Eastern continent. Otherwise, wouldn’t the Western gods unite to rebel?
Moreover, although my number has been in the Eastern Continent for so long and has even changed its name, I should be a ghost after all. I haven’t heard that when Nuwa created humans, she even created ghosts!
But to be honest, Yunyun and I are 100% Chinese. It is not wrong to say that we are descendants of Nuwa.
Now the east and west continents are already in conflict, and there are different camps on both continents, including light and darkness, demons and gods. Before we figure out where this mysterious "boss" is standing, Yunyun and I should not give our position to death for the time being.
Since this "boss" calls us the descendants of Nuwa, then let's just be it. Anyway, this identity seems to be harming us.
"You said we were in your body just now?" I asked carefully, while also recalling what happened before.
According to this NPC, part of the things we just experienced is this body, but which one is it?
Is it that dark canyon? That cold pool? Or those rocks that cannot stand?
But it is obvious that no matter which one is, it will not be a human being. This is the conclusion that Yunyun and I have reached for the moment.
"Yes." The voice said, "You come first, and the woman arrived later. Before you, another guy flew over me. I wanted him to come in and sit together, but he seemed to have gone to the other side."
Yunyun and I were slightly stunned. The other guy he said was naturally Aoshi Tianxia. I was wondering at first that Aoshi Tianxia also escaped here, but why did I meet Yunyun here but I didn’t hear his movements? Now, when I heard that NPC say this, this place is not just one passage. Yunyun and I were taken here, but Aoshi Tianxia went to a completely different place from us.
Of course, what kind of adventure will be like in Aoshi Tianxia, this is not what we care about. But this time, this time it was inexplicably teleported to the Western Continent, both for me and for Aoshi Tianxia, it was a rare opportunity. Because here, we each got...
After a careful inquiry and the answer that was inconsistent with the NPC, I and Yunyun roughly learned that this NPC has actually lived for millions of years. If we count it, even the Xuanyuan Sword will be behind it. But when we mention Pangu Axe, the NPC's voice reveals a sense of intimacy, which may have something to do with it.
And it is neither a god nor a Buddha, and of course it is not a ghost or a demon. It is just a river, a river that has lived underground for thousands or tens of thousands of years. It lives at the end of the Yellow Spring, but it is clearly divided with the Yellow Spring and has nothing to do with it. No one can tell whether it is first or the Yellow Spring. The cold pool water that I and Yunyun fell into just now is its body.
In this way, this mysterious NPC should indeed be born in the era of Nuwa, and perhaps it is somewhat inexplicable to Pangu who created the world. As for the later Fuxi, Xuanyuan, Shennong... they are all its younger generations. What's more, even the Jade Emperor, the Supreme Lord, and the Monkey King who made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, it has never even heard of it, so there is no need to mention the gods of the Western Continent.
Yunyun and I were both surprised and happy.
What was shocked was that this guy obviously should belong to the Eastern camp. With Yunyun's current identity, she really didn't know whether to treat this guy as an enemy or as an ancestor. Not to mention, until now, I haven't figured out which camp I belong to.
But what is happy is that if you meet such an ancestor-level guy, you will inevitably have some good tasks left to us to complete. Judging from its tone, even the Xuanyuan Sword is ignored. If there is another reward, I really don’t know what good things will be.
Could it be the legendary "normal" equipment? I don't think I'm so lucky, right?
Luck is really elusive. After Yunyun and I heard the river’s request, we couldn’t figure out whether to make good luck or be unlucky. Because the river actually asked us to inquire about its life experience.
"That's easy." I said, "If you can turn me back to your original appearance, just wait until I return to the Eastern Continent and ask for you."
Although Xuanyuan Sword and others are its younger generations, among the NPCs I know, they are the ones who have lived the longest. Especially the old guy who refined the Demon Pot, although he ranks a little lower among the top ten artifacts, he knows more than Xuanyuan Sword and Fuxi Qin. If you ask them for some inquiries, even if you don’t know, you can get some clues.
I don't think I can find a npc who knows Pangu in the Western continent. It's not like those ancient gods who know them.
Actually, I didn’t know at that time that in ancient times, the major gods of the East and the West really knew each other, and they had a lot of roots. Of course, let’s not ask what the myths in our real life are like, at least it is indeed the case in the setting of this game.
"Return to your original appearance?" The river pondered for a while and said, "I can't turn you back to your original appearance, but the guy who lives near me may be able to do it."
"Who is living near you?" Yunyun asked.
"I don't know." The voice suddenly gave a reply that was enough to make us bleed: "I forgot."
Depend on!
I resisted the urge to praise people in my heart, and gritted my teeth and asked, "You don't even know who he is, how do you know that he can turn me back to his original appearance?"
"I don't know." The river said, "I don't know who he is, but I seem to remember that he is very capable, so I think he should be able to do what you said."
"Since he is so capable, why don't you ask him about your life experience?" Yunyun asked with a smile.
"Why did I forget to ask him..." The voice was stunned, and then suddenly said angrily: "If I remember how to find him, I would have asked a long time ago, and I still have to wait for you!"
...
——……¥—……………………………………………*—
I was speechless.
If he doesn’t even know how to find his so-called “neighbor”, then how should I and Yunyun look for it?
If it wasn't so dark now, if I didn't see anything around, I think I should be able to see Yunyun showing such cute eye rolling. As for myself... don't expect to see a skeleton rolling her eyes.
"After talking for a long time, you're talking nonsense!" I shouted loudly, as if it wasn't enough to exaggerate the anger in my heart: "Send us back quickly! The talented man in this mission will not do the fuck!"
Don’t say that I’m fishy and don’t do the tasks. If you are facing an idiotic NPC like this, you will probably be crazy.
Obviously, Yunyun's patience is much better than mine, or because she is not very angry in front of me. She pulled my arm several times and said softly: "Don't be so angry. Since there is a task, there must be clues. After playing the game for so long, you don't know that the game designers in China love to let you do the fuck. If you don't have patience, it's impossible to complete the task."
I snorted heavily and said, "I'm so angry that I'm making this look like now. If I hadn't been able to see you, I would have really wanted to go offline and blow up the server of China."
Yunyun burst out laughing and held my arm and said, "If you have the ability, go and blow it up. I think you can make money by blowing up the server. Your free industry is based on the world. If this game is really stopped, I'm afraid you will be the first one to cry."
"Tsk! Who is afraid of whom?" I said indifferently: "At worst, I can go out to sell soy milk and fried dough sticks. With you, the big spokesperson, who follows me as a live advertisement, the business will definitely be very good. People who line up to buy soy milk every day can line up to Heilongjiang."
"No need for me." Yunyun smiled and said, "If anyone knows that you, the 'Demon Lord', changed your career and sold soy milk fried dough sticks, I guess you can't even make a whole day, so you will use the paper wrapped in fried dough sticks to sign the autograph."
"That won't work. If you want to sign, you can sign it on the fried dough sticks. Each one is sold for 120 yuan."
"It's too dark, aren't you afraid that someone will sue you at the Consumer Association?"
"Not afraid, who asked them to buy it? We have a real price..."
“…”
In this way, I had a long time of quarrel with Yunyun, and my mood was really better. And the idiot NPC was listening quietly next to me, without saying anything, as if I was trying hard to recall how his neighbor's house should go.
"Oh, I remembered it!" The voice suddenly said, frightening Yunyun and I at the same time.
