Chapter 53: The Myths of Antiquity
The principal's expression was serious, as if he was narrating a great thing with a sword, Fang Yu had no feelings, so naturally he would not understand the principal's emotional fluctuations, but Wayne and Lingyue were both brought into the story with the principal, feeling the feelings of those blood-stained battlefields.
Third: "Red Sky"
During the Qin Dynasty, there was such a young man who had no interest and was full of problems. He was lazy and never did the farm work at home. He was a good drinker, and he was often drunk into a puddle of mud. He is lustful, and he can't open his legs when he sees a beautiful girl. He was rude and was very arrogant to both the officials and the people. The most infuriating thing is that he is a good liar and a brag. He often had people see the seventy-two black moles on his left leg, and he said that it was a celestial phase diagram, not that it was a skin disease. He often looked at Xianyang from afar, shook his head and sighed: "Oh, the eldest husband should be like this!" His lies are becoming more and more outrageous. Out of nowhere, he got a rusty iron rod and told the villagers that it was a sword he had obtained from the immortals of Nanshan, and his name was Chixiao. He regarded it as a treasure and kept his "sword" by his side all day long. He also said that he was not a human being, but a red dragon in the sky. His bull is blowing bigger and bigger. He said that he had known the First Emperor for a long time, and that the First Emperor was a white dragon, and he also said that the First Emperor was inferior to him, because he was a red dragon with higher mana, and he would replace him as an emperor in the future. He also said that he knew that the First Emperor's vitality had turned into a white snake, and he had been cruising around Feng Xizawa for some time. He said he was going to cut off the white snake, and he gestured with the iron rod he had picked up. People treat his words as jokes, big words, and no one believes them. But one night, everything changed. That night, dozens of young people from the township who had gone to work as apprentices in the county went to Fengxize, and this young man was among them, but instead of going to work, he joined in the fun, and he took out his wine jug and drank as he went. The gang stopped when they walked to Fengxize, and it is strange to say that recently, people who went to the county town to work as apprentices often disappeared in the vicinity of Fengsize for some reason, so, for the sake of insurance, we sent a young man with quick skills to walk a few steps forward to investigate, and after a while, the spy fled back with a frightened face, he said that he walked a little way and smelled a faint fishy smell in front of him, so he climbed a big tree and looked, and saw a huge and vicious white snake in the middle of the road, as if waiting for something. The crowd was so shocked that they no longer dared to move forward. Then the young man walked forward from the crowd, and he said that the white snake was waiting for him, and that he was going to kill it. As he spoke, he pulled out his iron rod and staggered on his feet, it seemed that he had drunk all the way, and was now drunk. People held their breath and looked at his crooked back, and they were all saying in their hearts: This stupid boy...... The night passed, and the young man did not return, and it was known that he must have become a meal for the serpent. The clouds cleared, and everyone continued to move forward. After walking for a while, they suddenly saw a huge white snake, which was cut in two and thrown on the side of the road. A few miles further, he found the young man lying asleep on the side of the road, and a cloud of air was hanging above his body, and a red dragon was flying lazily around in the cloud. The iron rod in his hand was gone, replaced by a sword decorated with colorful beads, a cold light * man with nine jade, and a blade like frost and snow, and two seal characters were clearly engraved on the sword: Chixiao. At this moment, people believed that what the young man had said was true. This young man is Liu Bang. This sword is the Chixiao Sword that slashed the snake uprising.
The Chixiao Sword is an imperial sword.
Second: "Zhanlu"
Zhanlu is not only a sword, but also an eye. Zhanlu: Zhan Zhan but black also. This long sword, which is completely black and untraceable, makes people feel not its sharpness, but its generosity and kindness. It is like a deep, perceptive black eye in the heavens, watching every move of kings and princes.
The king has a way, the sword is on the side, and the country is prosperous.
There is no way, the sword is abandoned, and the country is ruined.
The English of hardware, the essence of the sun, the god of the out, the power of the service.
When Ou Yezi forged this sword, he couldn't help but shed tears, because he finally fulfilled his lifelong dream: to forge an invincible weapon without the slightest murderous aura. The so-called benevolent are invincible.
The Zhanlu Sword is a sword of benevolence.
"The first on the list, the legendary Xuanyuan Xia Yu sword, that is the symbol of our Huaxia......"
The bronze of the gods is cast by the Yellow Emperor, and it is passed on to Xia Yu. The sword body is engraved with the sun, moon and stars on one side, and the mountains, rivers and plants on the other. On the hilt of the sword, the art of farming and animal husbandry is written, and the policy of unification of the four seas is written on the other.
"Apart from the Xuanyuan Sword, what powerful weapons exist in our world?" Fang Yu asked.
"No, but there are also the corresponding Ten Ancient Fierce Beasts, and the Ten Fierce Beasts are just the legends I saw in the book, the elder of Shushan once said that he had seen an ancient fierce beast when he was passing through the void turbulence, but the truth of the facts is no longer distinguishable," the headmaster said.
"I know the ten fierce beasts of the ancients, they are real, they are the embodiment of evil and fear, most of the ancient beasts exist in the dark world, and few of them come back to the human world, but the ancient beasts are incomparably powerful, and their power can even be comparable to that of the gods," Wayne said, she is from the dark world.
"I want to hear about it," Fang Yu said.
"The Ten Fierce Beasts of Antiquity is a very old legend, of course, this is just the name of the Ten Fierce Beasts in the human world, in our dark world, they are our gods. ”
"The legendary Ten Ancient Beasts are just a name, and the dark world is parallel to the earth from some angles, so in the dark world, there are also the myths of Xuanyuan, the emperor, and those historical deeds on the earth," Wayne said slowly, and a huge picture opened up in front of everyone's eyes.
Red Flame Beast: The fire god Zhu Rong and the water god Gonggong are the descendants of the Shennong clan, in a great war, Zhu Rong who rode the fire dragon won a complete victory, and the Gonggong was angry and touched the Zhou Mountain, causing the water of the Tianhe River to pour into the world, in order to balance the power of water and fire, Zhu Rong sent the fire dragon to swim underground, and one of the descendants of the fire dragon was the Red Flame Beast. Since the flood that flooded the four fields was mortal water, Zhu Rong took away the samadhi true fire from the fire dragon, and the red flame beast, as its descendant, no longer had divine fire. Even so, the Red Flame Beast surrounded by steel and iron bones was still not something that mortals could defeat. The red flames all over the body, the fire poison is surging, and the Chinese people die immediately.
Kui: Born in the East China Sea Liupo Mountain, its shape is like a cow, no horns, the body is huge, dark black, but only one foot supports, also called one-legged Kui. Kui is a vicious beast that can emit light like the sun and moon and a thunderous cry.
According to the eighteenth year of Wen Gong in the "Zuo Chuan": "If you have no talent, you can't teach a lesson, you don't know what to say, you are stubborn if you tell it, you are arrogant if you give it up, you are arrogant and ruthless. After the death of this unteachable wicked man, he eventually evolved into a famous demonic beast in ancient times, "The Divine Strange Scripture of the Western Wilderness" records that "in the Western Wilderness, there are beasts, its shape is like a tiger and dog hair, two feet long, human face, tiger feet, pig teeth, tail length one zhang eight feet, disturbing the wilderness, the name of the Han. "It's already a weird and distorted image, not so much a monster as a product of a failed biochemical experiment and a nuclear leak.
The famous divine beast produced under the ancient divine system, also known as the "law beast". According to the "Treatise on Heng" and "Huainanzi Cultivation Chapter", it is as large as an ox and small as a sheep, and its appearance is roughly similar to that of a unicorn, with thick dark hair all over its body, bright eyes, and usually a single horn on its forehead. He has a high level of wisdom and can understand people's speech, and he will use his horns to resist those who are dishonest and disloyal. In later generations, ordinary sheep were often kept in temples to replace pigs
Roar: It is shaped like a rabbit, with two long ears, only a little more than a foot long. The lion is afraid, and the cover roars and drowns the body, that is, it is rotten.
Chongming Bird: In the "Collected Memories", it is said that Yao reigned for 70 years, and there was a country of accumulation. It looks like a chicken, and it sings like a phoenix. Untie the feathers and fly with the wings. It can chase away the beasts and wolves, so that the demons and the evil cannot be harmed. Or come several times a year, or not for years. The people of the country are all sprinkled and swept the door to keep the light. If the heavy Ming bird has not arrived, the Chinese people or carved wood, or built a bronze statue,?? for the image of this bird, placed between the Ming households, then the charm and the like, naturally retreated. So now, they all carve wooden statues, build bronze statues or paint images, so now they paint chickens on the door.
Hua Fang: In the "Classic of Mountains and Seas: The Three Classics of the West", there is a bird in Zhang'e Mountain, which is shaped like a crane, with one leg, red stripes and a white beak. It's called Huafang. "Overseas Southern Longitude": The Chinese bird is in the east, and the green water is in the west, with only one foot. And in "Huainanzi Yan Commentary", it is said that Mu Sheng is a prescription. Therefore, it is said that Bifang is changed by wood spirits, and the shape is a bird, one foot, and does not eat grains. In "Selected Works: Zhang Heng [Tokyo Fu]" said: The old father of the Chinese side is like a bird, with two legs and one wing, and often causes strange disasters in others. And "Han Feizi: Ten Mistakes" said: The Yellow Emperor of the past joined the ghosts and gods on the West Qin Mountain, drove an elephant car and a dragon, and killed him. Yuan Ke said that Hua Fang is a phoenix, and a phoenix is a sunbird, so he sees that there is a fire in it. "Lu Ya": Bi Fang, Zhao Firebird also. The phoenix is a god and a symbol of disaster. "Huainanzi Benjing Training": When Yao's strong wind is harmful, Yao Nai makes Yi pay the wind in Qingqiu. The gale is the big phoenix. "Huainanzi" Mu Sheng Bi Fang is influenced by the Five Elements Thought, which means that wood makes fire. Because Bi Fang is a firebird, Bi Fang is used to replace fire, which does not mean that Bi Fang was born in wood.
"The Divine Strange Scripture: The Southwest Wilderness Classic": "There are people in the southwest, hairy, and wearing pigs on their heads. Greed is as vicious, accumulating wealth without using it, and being good at stealing people's grains (the original work of the first two sentences is "good for accumulating wealth by oneself, not eating people's grain", according to the "Historical Records: Five Emperors Benji" righteous citation).

"Lü's Spring and Autumn Prophet" cloud: "The cycle is gluttonous, there is a head without a body, cannibalism is not swallowed, and it is harmful to its body."

Its image is in the shape of a beast, with meat wings. "As he said, he is also gluttonous.

"How similar these stories are to the ancient myths of China," Fang Yu frowned, "If the legendary Queen Mother of the West really exists, then there must be another world above the earth, in that world, it is definitely not a technological world similar to our earth, in these ancient myths, the strength of individuals has surpassed technology, if one of these strange beasts appears on the earth, then the whole earth will not be in chaos?" I do believe in the existence of these strange beasts, after all, although the ancients were ignorant, they could distinguish between right and wrong, and they would never make up a person who was nothing. ”
"Legend has it that on the east side of the Tianguan River in Yesanpo, there is a very big stone, called Li'er Stone. Above the stone face there is a stone pit two feet long, one foot high, and one inch deep. Fifteen zhang away from Li'er Stone, on the cliff is a stone carved Buddha statue.
Legend has it that a long time ago, the Queen Mother of Heaven lived comfortably in the palace, but she was sullen all day long. As the saying goes, "Everyone has a scripture that is difficult to read," there is one thing that has not been going well for her. At the beginning of the year, she gave birth to her first child as a daughter, and she was very happy, and she gave birth to a second daughter, which is also her mother's heart. When she saw that the third and fourth were girls, the Queen Mother was not happy—she was looking forward to her son. In order to have a son, the queen mother held her breath and gave birth to seven in a row, but all seven were girls, and it was still rare to have a son. Worried about this, she didn't think about food, stayed awake all night, and sighed all day long. The Jade Emperor was also worried about this.
One day, the Jade Emperor accompanied the Queen Mother to go down to the world to relax, came to Longmen Gorge on the top of the Ten Thousand Heavenly Pass, stood on the top of the mountain and looked down, it was really "two mountain walls standing close to the sky, a water line white practice flying". The Jade Emperor praised: "What a fairyland on earth!" Where did the Queen Mother have the heart to enjoy the scenery, she pouted and stood aside just sullenly. The Jade Emperor knew what was on her mind, and suddenly remembered why not let her go to the Buddha to teach her the way to give birth to a son. He told the Queen Mother about this idea, and the Queen Mother also agreed, so she immediately set up auspicious clouds and ran to the west sky, found Rulai, and said: "I have given birth to daughters many times, and it is rare to have a son, and I hope that the great immortal will teach the way of giving birth to a child." "If you think about it: You have given birth to seven girls and want a son, wouldn't it be a mess of heaven? He had an idea: Why don't I try my luck with the stone throwing method, so he said to the queen mother: "A hundred steps away from the east side of the small stream in Longmen Tianguan, there is a standing stone, and the boy and girl must throw three stones into the stone hole to ask. If all three stones are hit, there will be a man and a woman; if two of them fall, only a man will be born, and no girl will be born; if only one of them is hit, then only a girl will be born and no man will be born; if none of them can be hit, then there will be no man and no woman, and it will be a 'desperate life'. The Queen Mother begged for her son, and when she heard this, she hurried back. At this time, the Buddha pointed a little with his finger, and on the east side of the creek river in the Longmen Tianguan Scenic Area of Yesanpo, a large stone weighing several thousand catties immediately protruded, and a very shallow rectangular stone pit was concave above the stone. The Queen Mother tiptoed on her heels and threw stones into the stone pit according to the words of the Buddha. The first stone missed, and the second stone didn't even touch the edge of the pit, but fortunately the third stone fell into the pit. The Queen Mother was in a dull mood, standing on the Wang'er collar at the highest place of Longmen Tianguan, looking up to the sky and lamenting: "I can't ask for children, so I have to put it on my daughters!"
Later, the people in the Yesanpo area came to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and the newlyweds came to Li'er Stone in pairs, threw three stones, and begged for children and daughters, so it formed a kind of custom, which has been passed down to the present. ”
"It's a myth and legend that I heard when I was a kid," Reiyue said, "and I also think that the Queen Mother of the West is a person who exists in myths and stories." ”
"What do children say," the principal slapped Lingyue's head, he was proud to remember the story, but he couldn't prevent Lingyue from interrupting.
"We have to go to these places, is there really such a thing as ascending to become an immortal?If so, then what is the use of technology, everything will turn into ashes in the face of absolute power," Fang Yu's heart was also skeptical of the mythical stories, but what Fang Yu didn't expect was that one day in the future, he would really come into contact with these similar fantasy stories, and the protagonist was himself.
Of course, it is Fang Yu's body, Fang Yu is a heart, even if he tries hard, he will not have power, that is not something that a heart can have
