Chapter 252: The Relics of the Aftermath
Rumble!!!
With a loud bang, the gray light in the general's hand exploded as soon as it touched the ground.
We were all taken aback.
Because generals have always been the kind of one-hit killing, or killing people in an invisible trick, they rarely use a loud, bomb-like explosion attack.
In the sound of the explosion, a cloud of dust was raised from the pitch-black ground in an instant, and the violent earthquake turned us down involuntarily.
"Huh?"
Before the dust cleared, the generals were shocked.
I got up and waved my hand, and the bad air blew the dust away, and I couldn't believe the scene in front of me.
I saw that the position where the generals were attacking, unscathed!
Shocked, I quickly stomped the ground with my foot, and a feeling of hardness similar to a human road came.
Right?
Although the ground here is hard, who are the generals?
His palm can't be said to be semi-successful, even if he falls lightly on the ground, he can smash a big hole, right?
Why didn't it work here?
Others were also surprised, especially Heavenly Master Zhang.
She probably knows more about the generals than we do, after all, it is a thousand-year-old inheritance that once guarded it.
Celestial Master Zhang, like me, first stomped his feet in confusion, and then squatted directly on the ground and pondered carefully.
I took out the lighter and crouched down, lit the fire and looked at the ground.
The ground is very flat, and in addition to the many small granular black balls on the surface, there is a strange material like asphalt pavement underneath.
I flicked my fingers a few times at the black grains, some like sand, some like beads, reflecting the glimmer of lighters and the stars overhead.
"This is—the !?? of the Silva"
Suddenly, Heavenly Master Zhang shouted.
Ever since Celestial Master Zhang followed us, she has been basically ignorant of some legendary or modern things.
So at this point, after she shouted the word "Xiyang", we were all frightened.
Resting soil, a strange soil in ancient legends.
This soil can grow on its own, swell, and is rumored to be able to fill floods.
The most famous of the legends and allusions is the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" about "Yu to rest the soil flood".
It probably means that in ancient times, the great flood flooded the sky, and the Kun at that time stole Di Yao's rest soil to block the flood.
And after Emperor Yao found out, he let Zhu Rong die in the place of Yuyuan.
After Dayu, the widow of Kun, grew up, Emperor Yao asked Dayu to use the soil to control the water, and finally determined the boundary of Kyushu in ancient China.
In fact, to put it mildly, the incident of Kun stealing the soil did not cause him to kill him, but what finally made his soul return to the underworld was the failure to block the flood, which caused a greater disaster after the flood dam.
So Emperor Yao was helpless, so he killed Kun to thank the world.
The story of Dayu's water control is well known to the world, so I won't tell it here.
And after Kun's death, there was also a strange incident, which can be mentioned here.
It is said that after his death, his body did not decompose for three years.
Later, Zhu Rong found out, so he ran over and dissected his body again, only to rescue the widow trapped inside-Dayu.
The corpse of the Kun turned into a bear-like monster with three legs and flew away.
This is the myth and legend about Xiyang, the part about Dayu, in fact, for the people of the human world, it has basically been regarded as a historical fact.
Of course, there are too many branches of the mythological system in China, and in addition to the Xiyang, there is also a kind of Nine Heavenly Xiyang that is also mentioned in the legends of some genres.
According to this genre, the Nine Heavens Rest Soil is actually the essence of Pangu's spine, which was later used by Nuwa Niangniang to create humans, so human beings grew into the most primates.
......
After Tianshi Zhang called out Xi Yang's name, our surprise was not great, because it didn't take long for the generals to agree:
"Yes, it's a bit like the ancient spit. The color is black, and it can emit the glow of the stars in the dark......"
I hurriedly interjected and asked:
"There is the protection of the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Array here, and the feet are sealed by the soil, is it the sleeping place of some mythical big man?"
This idea arose from the time I learned about the "Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Array".
Ancient emperors or leaders of ancient tribes had a more or less divine spirit, and they would not only build lavish dormitories during their lifetimes, but also build underground palaces in famous mountains and rivers after their deaths.
And a big man like them, after his death, he will most likely not want to accept the position of the underworld, and he will not continue to sink into the yang world, after all, some guys may be tired of the battle in the world.
When I said this, except for the generals, everyone fell into contemplation again, and I think it makes sense.
After a while, the general replied:
"With the large array above your head and the rest of the soil, your guess is indeed reasonable! But I have also seen the rest of the soil in ancient times, and it is impossible for it to be so hard that even my chaotic gray light cannot penetrate it!"
At this time, Heavenly Master Zhang grabbed a handful of granular things on the ground, looked at them carefully, and said:
"This Heavenly Master bets that this must be the Resting Soil! Because the place where the exorcist dragon clan lives, there is this kind of Resting Soil!"
The ancestor of Heavenly Master Zhang is Nulu, the daughter of the Yellow Emperor, and Kun is one of the grandsons of the Yellow Emperor, and the two are indeed related to each other, and Heavenly Master Zhang should not admit his mistake.
Then it's strange, which big man is buried here?
I pondered as I walked around.
I didn't pay much attention to whether the generals could penetrate the soil, after all, we were shrouded in the Zhou Tian Star Fighting Array, and even a simple version was not something that one or two great powers could break.
Zhou Tian Xingdou Great Array, Xi Yang, Yellow Emperor, Great Wu Clan......
Suddenly, an old name came to mind.
At the same time, I only heard the generals exclaim:
"Could it be...... Could it be that the Emperor of the Later Soil Emperor?"
My scalp is numb, and he is exactly the same as I think - Hou Tu Niang, the mother of the earth!
And just when we were all shocked by the general's speculation, suddenly there was an extremely violent vibration from the ground!
Something seemed to be waking up and bursting out underneath, and the starlight above me was shaking with the tremor!
We were all shocked to see each other, and with such a vision of the heavens and the earth shattering, there must be something great about to be born.
The tremor became more and more intense, and we couldn't even stand on our feet, and we were all shocked to the ground.
Seeing this, the general stretched out his strange hand and grabbed at our void, only to see the surrounding scenery change again—we were back on the surface of the basin again.
Call!!
Everyone exhaled in unison, the violent earthquake just now was so shocking that it was not something that human beings could compete with at all.
But before everyone could take a few breaths and rest, they heard Heavenly Master Zhang pointing to the distance and saying:
"-Look, there's something going on over there!"
We followed the prestige, only to see the countless black shadows that were still fighting there just now, all standing stupidly in place at this time.
"Ahh
With a terrifying scream, the shadows moved away from the area at breakneck speed, as if some terrifying monster had appeared there.
- Boom!!
The next moment, I saw that the position where the black shadows were standing just now was like a volcanic eruption, and a huge air flow with blue and yellow went straight into the sky!
And even though we were far away from the eruption, we felt the familiar vibration under our feet.
"Retreat!"
The general said with rare seriousness, and then grabbed us again.
- Whoosh!
As if traveling through space, we appeared in another place, but at the top of a small mountain.
The view here is extremely wide, almost half the height of the basin, and the scenery can be seen clearly.
A few muffled sounds sounded, and about two kilometers away, the blue and yellow air flow was rushing straight into the blue sky with a momentum against the sky.
As if poking something, the air finally broke through the cyan clouds, stirring up the surrounding clouds for a while!
A few of us were dumbfounded, and even the well-informed General Yue was stupid, and there was only surprise in our eyes!
Fortunately, the vision did not last long, and after about seven or eight seconds, the blue and yellow air currents finally tapered and finally disappeared without a trace.
The general kept looking at it from a distance, and a layer of gray chaotic light appeared on his strange eyes.
"Zombie Ancestor, can you be sure that this is Hou Tu Niangniang?"
I asked him that we were basically blind in this situation, and we didn't know anything in the dark.
"It's not clear, but even if it's not Houtu, that green and yellow aura can't be separated from her!"
The general said in a deep voice.
Unexpected, really unexpected!
Houtu is said to be a descendant of the Gonggong clan, and before the Sui Dynasty, Houtu mostly appeared as male official names and mythological figures.
After the Sui Dynasty, Houtu became a female posture again, and even the temple was replaced with a statue of a goddess.
It is said that she can hold yin and yang and nurture all things, and is known as the mother of the earth, and is the earliest king of the earth.
In addition, she is also the fourth emperor of the "Four Emperors" of Taoism, and her full name is "Chengtian imitates the Emperor of the Earth", and she is a female deity who dominates the mountains and rivers of the earth.
According to the record of "Daozang", the clouds: the hidden capital, the underground and the earth, and the underground and the underworld, so it is called the hidden capital.
The dark capital is the underworld, that is, the ghost realm of the underworld, and the underground dungeon is also governed by the Houtu, which means the ground and the underground - the Houtu is respected!
Thinking of this, I wondered more and more:
It is said that Hou Tu Niangniang is already a god in the upper realm, how can there still be something related to her in this underworld?
Could it be her mount?
It's a bit outrageous, but I thought about it as I guessed.
But it didn't take long for me to give up, and there is no record of Hou Tu Niang Niang's mount, whether in Taoist legend or folklore......
Suddenly, the general's strange eyes froze, and he said in a deep voice:
"Be careful, it's out!"
We were all shocked, what was the thing?
In the next moment, I saw that where the blue and yellow air flow was spewed out just now, a figure rose into the sky, hanging in the air, quietly scanning the soul demon cultivator below.
"Well?—— it's not good, it's her old legacy!"
General Tie said with a blue face.
Relic, which refers to the immortal who has become an immortal, the mortal body left behind when the immortal leaves the body.
There are similar relics in Buddhism, but they are called "golden bodies" and so on.
The remnants of the earth?
Isn't that the underground space just now the mausoleum of Hou Tu Niangniang??
"Shicai, you woke me up?"
Suddenly, a strange voice echoed between heaven and earth.
I turned my head in shock, only to see the general look at me helplessly, and replied:
"That's right!"
