Chapter 59: The Legend of the Suzaku Divine Bow
Seeing Long Dou fall to the ground, everyone gathered around, Cang Xue saw Luo Dan holding Long Dou in her arms, she was a little unhappy for no reason, that feeling couldn't be said, anyway, she was unhappy, she pretended not to care:
"Sister Luo Dan, why are you holding it so tightly, I'm afraid of being snatched away, he's okay, is he dead? ”
Hearing Cang Xue's ridicule, Luo Dan realized his gaffe, shyly flattened Long Dou's body, then stood up, lowered his head and said shyly:
"He~ He's fine, it should have been a little weak just after spending too much energy, I just gave him some pills to replenish his physical strength, and he should be fine after a night's rest." ”
The Vermilion Bird Divine Bow in Long Dou's hand, at this time, the flames had gradually dissipated, slipped from his hand, and returned to calm. Cang Xue picked up the Vermilion Bird Divine Bow from the ground, carefully looked at the Divine Bow in her hand, and suddenly felt very unfamiliar.
She has never seen it so far, someone can pull the Vermilion Bird Divine Bow into a full moon, even her father, he can only pull the Divine Bow by a third, and the flame that has just come out, it is the first time she has seen it, what is the secret of this Vermilion Bird Divine Bow?
Qingfeng on the side saw Cangxue's face full of doubts, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Your Royal Highness Princess, why can't we pull this divine bow, but Long Dou can, what is the origin of this divine bow, can you tell us about it?"
The cloud trail, Mu Yuan, Monroe and Luo Dan next to him also looked at Cang Xue expectantly, waiting for her to solve her puzzles.
Cang Xue recalled the story that her father told her about the Vermilion Bird Divine Bow again, and said:
"Legend has it that during the flood era, the Eastern God Emperor had ten sons, all of whom were suns, and these ten suns lived with their mother on the shore of the Oriental Sea.
The wife of the Emperor of God often bathed her ten children in the East China Sea, and after bathing, they were allowed to rest on a large tree, because the center of each sun was in the shape of a bird, so the big tree became their home, nine of them perched on the branches that grew shorter, and the other perched on the treetops.
At dawn, the sun perched on the treetops travels through the sky in a dragon cart, shining on the world, spreading light and heat to the whole world. The ten suns take turns on duty, changing every day, in order, and everything in heaven and earth is a thriving scene.
People live very happily and harmoniously on the earth, ploughing at sunrise and resting at sunset, and live a happy and happy life. At that time, people were grateful for the time, light, and joy that the sun brought them, and they often kowtowed to the sky and bowed to them.
However, after a long time, the ten suns found it boring to take turns one by one, and they wanted to travel the sky together, so that they could have a better time.
So, when dawn came, the ten suns climbed into the dragon cart together and embarked on a journey through the sky. At this moment, everything on the earth could not stand it, and the ten suns were like ten large fires, and the heat they released together scorched the earth and burned many lives.
All the trees, crops, and houses were burned to ashes, the forest was on fire, and the remaining people and animals were running around in a frenzied search for a place to escape the disaster.
Then the river dried up, the sea dried up, all the fish died, and the monsters in the water climbed ashore to steal food. People and domestic animals on the land have no livelihood, and they become food for the mouths of wild animals. People are struggling in the midst of the calamity of the sea of fire, praying for the gift of God!
At this time, there was a young and handsome heroic god of war named Shadow, he was a sharpshooter, excellent archery, and every shot. He was summoned by the Emperor of the Gods and received the mission of driving away the sun, and when he saw the miserable people in the fire, he secretly resolved to shoot out the extra nine suns and help them get out of the sea of suffering.
Before Shadow left, the God Emperor gave him a divine bow, which was made of the bones of the Vermilion Bird, and the wing bones were the basic material for the bow's back, and several bones were spliced together to form a bow.
It is made into a bowstring with its tendons and skin, and a vermilion arrow is made from ribs. Then, the God Emperor put the bow and string into the divine fire, refining it into one in a strange way, making the back of the bow like a red jade, the curved horns are even greener, the rib body is jet black, and the string wire has also turned into a golden color.
The God Emperor admonished him: There are only ten arrows, and he is only allowed to fail once.
So, Shadow climbed over ninety-nine mountains, crossed ninety-nine great rivers, crossed ninety-nine canyons, came to the edge of the sea in the East, climbed a mountain facing the vast sea, Shadow pulled out the Vermilion Bird Divine Bow rewarded by the God Emperor, mounted the thousand-pound Vermilion Bird Divine Arrow, aimed at the hot sun in the sky, and with a whoosh, the first sun was shot down. Shadow drew his bow and arrows again, and with a hum, the two suns were shot down at the same time.
Now, there are still seven suns in the sky staring at the red eyes. Sensing that the sun was still scorching, Shadow shot a third arrow with great ferocity.
The arrow was shot with great force, and it shot down four suns at once. The other suns trembled in fright, and they spun around. In this way, Shadow shot two more arrows in succession, and the arrows did not miss, and a total of nine suns were shot.
The nine suns that were shot by the arrow died one by one. Their feathers fell to the ground, their light and heat disappeared little by little, and the people suddenly felt cool and cheered.
Shadow glued the feathers on the ground to the back of the Suzaku Divine Bow, and he was so afraid of the last sun that he did as Shadow commanded, and honestly continued to contribute light and heat to the earth and all things.
Since then, this sun rises every day from the sea in the east and sets from the mountains in the west at night, warming the world, keeping all things alive and people living and working in peace and contentment.
However, because he shot the nine sons of the God Emperor, he was not allowed to return to the God Realm, and was sealed in the Nine Shadows Abyss. ”
Everyone listened attentively, and when Cang Xue finished speaking, their eyes widened, and you said, I asked one word:
"Oh my God!
"Could this be the god, the used bow?"
"It's unbelievable!"
"It's impossible, it's impossible!
......
Cang Xue shrugged her shoulders and said: "I don't know if the story is true or false, you have all seen its power, I always feel that this divine bow hides a lot of secrets, and when I get to the Sword God Academy, I must find a master to ask." ”
After Cang Xue finished speaking, she put the Vermilion Bird Divine Bow into the space ring. Everyone was exhausted after this battle, and Qingfeng and Yun Trace carried Long Dou into the makeshift grass hut they had set up, and then they also went to sleep.
In the grass in the distance, the three black-clothed men whispered sneakily: "Big brother, I didn't expect that stinky boy to be able to pull the Vermilion Bird Divine Bow, what should we do now?"
The man in black, who was called the eldest brother, had a cold glint in his eyes, and said in a cold tone: "You take good care of people for me, don't act rashly, I'll report it and come back soon, if people lose it, you know the consequences." ”
"Yes! Big Brother"
After the man in black finished speaking, his figure flashed and disappeared into the night.
