Chapter 284 A Story
With the guidance of Tumaku, the journey from the foot of the mountain to the front of the altar is unobstructed. Wherever you pass, all the Miao people showed a look of awe.
Xuan Tianji speculated that the man named "Tu Ma Bone" should be the leader of the Miao people, and only in this way can the explanation be understood.
He thought to himself, but his eyes looked at the altar in front of him, and a trace of curiosity appeared.
Speaking of which, this is the first time he has seen the Miao people's altar. As for the temple of Nuwa in the world of fairy swords, it is naturally not counted.
There is a platform in front of the altar, which is flat and paved with large rectangular stone strips, which is quite flat.
Two huge stone pillars stood high in front of the altar. At first glance, they were afraid that they were not ten feet high. Moreover, there was no crack around the stone pillar. They were actually carved from a complete huge stone. I really don’t know where the Miao ancestors could find such huge stones, and they could actually transport and erect them in front of the altar.
Walking through these two huge stone pillars is the sacred altar in the eyes of Miao people. Half is built of huge stones, and the other half is directly excavated by the mountain and dug out on the hard stone wall. It is majestic and tall, with a hint of roughness and clumsiness.
Xuan Tianji and his group walked in with the old man, and the light around suddenly dimmed, and the temperature around seemed to be much lower than outside.
As Xuan Tianji expected, Tu Magu was indeed the leader of the entire Miao clan. Not only was he very familiar with this sacred place in the Miao people's hearts, but he also occasionally met a Miao wizard, and both sides even greeted each other.
According to the customs of Miao people in southern Xinjiang, the only one who can be equal to the status of a wizard is the only patriarch. Obviously, Tumakura is the latter.
Walking through the spacious passage, everyone came to the deepest part of the altar, which was also the largest room in the altar.
Above the stone gate, decorations made of beast bones are hung, and bright red blood is painted everywhere on the surrounding stone walls, which symbolizes the piety of worshiping ancestors.
Looking from the darkness, everything here is particularly hideous.
However, for the Miao people, this is the most sacred place. Tu Magu also had a solemn expression on his face, tidying up his clothes. He turned around and said respectfully: "Please, Goddess!"
Zhao Ling'er said softly, hugged Xuan Tianji's arm and stepped into it.
As for Xiaobai, he was full of indifferentness and followed him in.
The huge stone chamber was empty, with only the innermost part, a ball of flame burning. It was particularly eye-catching in the darkness.
In front of the flame was a strange stone statue that was also carved from a whole huge stone. Its head was dog-shaped, but it was full of body. It had sharp claws on its feet, and two pairs of wings on its back. It was really a strange statue. It seemed to be the god believed by the Miao people.
There was only one person in the huge stone chamber. His back looked very old and hunched, sitting silently in front of the flames, as if he was meditating, or as if he was silent.
Somehow, this strange place gives people a strange feeling of keeping time and stagnating.
Here, it seems as if everything is quiet and silent.
The flames were blazing, illuminating the figure of the person in front of the flames, and the light and darkness were illuminated.
Tu Magu slowly walked up, stopped ten feet behind the man, and said in a low and respectful voice: "Great Wizard, the Goddess is here!"
The figure sitting in front of the flame moved, and an old voice came: "Tu Magu, there is nothing to do with you here, you can go down!"
"Yes!" The head of Tumagu tribe bowed respectfully, turned around, bowed to Zhao Ling'er, and then left the altar.
There were only four people left in the field.
In the cave, he fell into silence for a moment, and no one spoke first. Only the pile of flames in front of the great wizard burned, and it was uncertain.
After a long time, the great wizard slowly stood up and looked at Zhao Ling'er with deep eyes.
He has an old face, with wrinkles on his face, like the deep rings of the years. At a glance, he knows that he has experienced the vicissitudes of the world, which makes people feel respectful.
The great wizard finally spoke: "Goddess, you are here!"
Zhao Ling'er showed a confused expression. After thinking for a while, she asked carefully: "This... great wizard, you are afraid that... have misunderstood. Why did you say that I am a 'goddess'?"
The great wizard shook his head, and his old voice slowly rang in the cave: "You are the daughter of Nuwa, and naturally the goddess. This is an oracle issued by the God of Dog, so it will be impossible to be wrong!"
"What did you say?" Zhao Linger was really shocked when she heard the words of the great wizard and couldn't help but say, "How do you know?"
The great wizard was not surprised and said slowly: "Goddess, if you are patient, you can listen to a legend and you will know what I mean!"
"Okay...right!" Zhao Ling'er nodded at the warning of Xuan Tianji.
"It is rumored that in ancient times, heaven and earth were born, and there was only heaven and earth in the world, and the one who accompanied the heaven and earth was Nuwa."
"After countless years, various creatures in the world were born, and another creature with special wisdom also appeared."
"What Nuwa gives humanity is protection and kindness. She dedicated everything to people, and people gradually prosper under the protection of Nuwa."
"But at this moment, the gods led by the fire god Zhurong, his seven brothers and the ancient god Chiyou believed that everything people have now is given by God, and God should be the master of mankind. Nuwa Niangniang certainly opposed this statement. Zhurong and Chiyou and Niangniang had a long argument and could not convince each other. In a fit of anger, they ran to the lower realm and wanted to rule mankind through the power of God.
"Zhurong started a war with Chiyou and Huangdi, the ruler of humans in the lower realm. How could humans be God's opponents at that time? As a result, humans were defeated and almost destroyed."
"Later, Nuwa led the gods to fight with the Fire God and Chiyou, and fought for three days and three nights. In the end, the Yuanshen Zhu Rong and his seven brothers were banned by Nuwa using the fire essence magic weapon Xuanhuo Mirror to activate the eight evil mysterious fire formations, and Chiyou's primordial spirit was also banned by Nuwa's Fulong Cauldron that used Nuwa to refine the five-colored divine stone to repair the sky."
"Through this battle between great gods, Nuwa understood that the fate of human beings should be chosen by herself like other creatures, and no god can break this law. Although she guided people in the past, she did something wrong. So Nuwa led the gods to leave this world and disappeared."
"Nuwa's little daughter Ruiying was nostalgic for the world and wanted to stay in the world. Nuwa's dissuasion was ineffective, so she agreed and passed the secret book of heaven and earth, the secret book of the mystery of heaven and earth that she had understood throughout her life, to her daughter, and told her little daughter that this book is the root of my research on all things and the foundation of integrating heaven and earth. Perhaps it will be helpful to the development of human civilization. If you stay, if humans are confused by evil in the future, you can use the book of heaven to guide them and pass the Eight Evil Xuanhuo Magic Formation and Xuanhuo Mirror to your daughter."
"Later, Ruiying went to the 100,000 mountains in the south, met the leader of the southern tribe at that time, and had a love affair with him, and gave birth to a daughter named Linglong!"
Speaking of this, the great wizard suddenly paused for a while, as if he was immersed in the past that had been buried in ancient history. After a while, he slowly continued: "It's a pity that Empress Ruiying seemed to have had an irreconcilable conflict with the leader. In despair, he led his daughter deep into the 100,000 mountains in southern Xinjiang and lived with the natives. Gradually, because of Empress Ruiying's kindness and helpfulness, he became the leader of the locals."
"After Ruiying's death, her daughter Linglong became the new leader. Linglong was as kind as her mother. In order to commemorate her, people later called the leader... 'Linglong Niangniang'!"
"And... your appearance is exactly the same as the statue of Linglong Niangniang!" The great wizard finally explained the reason. "More importantly, you have the power to be extremely awe-inspiring to the Lord of the Dog God! So, Goddess, you, the daughter of Nuwa, have finally arrived in the world. Please receive the blessings of your most pious people!"
Zhao Ling'er was stunned when she heard this. Her cherry mouth almost opened into an O-shaped shape. She never expected that she would hear such legends in this world, and it was closely related to herself. She was so surprised that she couldn't speak.
She is a descendant of Nuwa, but has her "mother" Nuwa experienced these things? Why don't she know at all?
Xuan Tianji only felt his eyes wide open. Unexpectedly, there was a legend of Nuwa in the Zhuxian world, and he even fought with Zhu Rong and other things. It was really incredible.
However, what he was more interested in was not the others, but the two messages of "Xuanhuo Mirror" and "Fulong Ding". If it was really what the great wizard said, it would be really interesting!
Xuan Tianji has an intuition that what the great wizard said should be a bit real. Although there are no immortals and gods in the world of Zhuxian, no matter how vast the area or the richness of the divine objects, they are far superior to the world of fairy swords, and they are even more filled with the aura of ancient wilderness.
Just as he was thinking, he heard the great wizard say, "Goddess, your people have another story. Are you willing to listen?"
Zhao Ling'er was stunned and hesitated, saying the word "good"! (To be continued.) Mobile phone users, please visit http://m.piaotian.net
