Episode 286: Legends of Southern Xinjiang

Southern Xinjiang is located in the south of the vast land of China, never as prosperous as the Middle Earth, but has its own unique origins, now, everyone in the world knows that there are a total of five ethnic groups in southern Xinjiang, living together on this land. But in fact, a long time ago, the five tribes of Miao, Li, Zhuang, Tu, and Gaoshan were actually the same ancient tribe, called the "Wu Clan".

Legend in the clan says that in ancient times, the ancient witch clan operated the southern frontier and was powerful, and the clan produced a generation of inhumans with high witch power, among which each generation of witch maidens who served the witch god, witchcraft was the most powerful.

The so-called witch Niangniang is to select a virgin with the highest spiritual power from each generation of the ancient witch clan, serve the witch god in the altar, study witchcraft, and lead all the witch clansmen. This kind of day has been going on for many, many years

However, in the third year of the succession of the eleventh generation of the ancient witch clan, Niang Linglong, among the 100,000 mountains on the border of southern Xinjiang, a sudden change occurred.

In the midst of the 100,000 mountains, a monster known as the 'Beast God' appeared, and no one knew the origin of that monster, as if he appeared out of thin air in the dangerous and vicious 100,000 mountains.

At first, no one noticed the existence of the monster, but gradually, the ancestors of the Wu clan sensed the mutation. The rolling mountains of the 100,000 Great Mountains are steep, but the forests are lush and the animals are abundant, and the skilled hunters of the Wu clan have always been able to enter to hunt. But from that time on, in the midst of the 100,000 mountains, a vicious miasma was suddenly born, and when a person inhaled it, his whole body festered and died. What's even more strange is that the originally normal beasts have also undergone strange changes, and some monsters that have changed into beast-headed human shapes are extremely ferocious and kill people when they see them. Death and eating corpses is terrifying, and among the witch clan, people are panicked for a while.

At that time, the witch Niang Linglong convened the leaders of the clan to deliberate, and finally sent a team of elite warriors led by three wizards. I went to the 100,000 mountains to check what strange things had happened, causing poisonous miasma to suddenly grow in the mountains and animals to mutate. But on the tenth day after this team entered the mountain, only the leading wizard with the strongest witch power escaped, and his whole body festered, and it was still ineffective under the full treatment of Linglong Niangniang, and finally only said the word "beast demon" when he was dying. That's how he died!

From this time on, the ancestors of the Wu clan finally knew that a monster had emerged from the 100,000 mountains. Later, after many investigations, after paying many warriors' lives, I gradually learned that this monster suddenly appeared in the 100,000 mountains, with incredible strange abilities, under his demon law, the originally densely forested mountain range turned into a barren mountain. The clear river is full of venom and is full of highly toxic miasma. And the original variety of animals in the forest. He was also turned into a monster by using demon methods, and turned into all kinds of monsters such as bear people, tiger people, leopard people, werewolves, etc., which were ferocious and cannibalistic, and extremely terrifying

After knowing the monster of the beast demon, the people of the witch clan never lived a day of peace, and it became deeper and deeper as time passed. The various monsters under the beast demon began to gradually come beyond the 100,000 mountains. In this way, news of the murder of clansmen continued to spread in various places, and the number of people increased and increased, and it really reached the point of panic. In the end, ordinary Wu people even began to abandon their homes and move to the north desperately, seeing that if this continued, the entire Wu tribe would be destroyed.

The witch of that generation, Niang Linglong, originally wanted to inquire more about this monster, and then discuss how to get rid of this monster. But at that time, the crowd was angry among the Wu Clan, and the situation was really at the most critical moment, and she finally decided to gather all the wizards and warriors in the Wu Clan to go together to crusade against this monster and fight him to the death to save the Wu Clan.

Unexpectedly, on the night when the witch Niang Linglong made this decision, the beast demon actually led his countless demon subordinates to suddenly kill from the 100,000 mountains and directly kill the place where the altar of the ancient witch clan was located. The altar of the Wu tribe is the place where the Wu people worship the witch god, and it has always been the lifeblood of the tribe and is sacred and inviolable. That night, it can be said that all the people of the Wu Clan, both men and women, and even older children, rushed to the battlefield to fight those vicious demons to the death!

That vicious battle was unimaginable, all in all, after the blood stained all the ground under their feet, and after countless witch warriors used their bodies to die with the demons, the beast demons finally took some demons and rushed into the altar of the witch god guarded by Linglong Niangniang. And outside the altar, it was still killing

It's just that the witch Niang Linglong of that generation is recognized as the strongest witchcraft in all dynasties. After an earth-shattering battle, the beast demon and his powerful subordinate demons were finally trapped by the "Eight Fierce Xuanhuo Array" handed down by the ancient witch god in the altar.

This magic circle was handed down by the ancient witch gods, and it was launched with the strange treasure of the essence of ten thousand fires, "Xuanhuo Jian", which was extremely powerful. The morale of the people of the Wu clan was greatly shaken, and those monsters were in turmoil, and they were finally gradually repulsed.

It's a pity that although the mana of the "Eight Fierce Xuanhuo Array" is boundless, the power of the beast demon is really extraordinary, and it can be burned day and night under the eight desolate fire dragons, although he is seriously injured, he still survives, and he confronts Linglong Niangniang endlessly. At that time, in the entire altar, because the magic power of the circle itself was too strong, the wizards of other clans could not come close to help, and only Linglong Niangniang supported this huge magic circle alone with her own magic power.

However, although the beast demon escaped, it was already dying by the fire of this magic circle, and he didn't dare to stay for a moment longer, and flew back to the lair in the 100,000 mountains. And when everyone rushed to the altar, Linglong Niangniang was also exhausted, and she was almost exhausted from the oil. It's just that the witch lady is exquisite, she is really an admirable character, but after a day of rest, she decided to enter the 100,000 mountains alone to get rid of the beast demon. Because if you wait for the beast demon to recover, I am afraid that the end of the witch clan will really come.

At that time, no one among the Wu clan agreed with Linglong Niangniang's approach, and everyone knew that if she went, she was afraid that she would never come back. But Linglong Niangniang is determined. Finally, he went, but he was accompanied by the seven bravest warriors of the Wu Clan. A group of eight of them entered the extremely vicious 100,000 mountains like this.

Along the way, they overcame obstacles, and I don't know how many monsters they killed. Finally, on the sixth day, they came to the ancient cave where the beast demon lived. At this moment, Linglong Niangniang made an unexpected decision, she asked the other seven people to wait outside the cave, and she was the only one to enter the ancient cave.

The seven warriors naturally refused, but Linglong Niangniang was extremely determined, and bluntly said that it would not help them to go in, but would drag her down, and finally. The seven warriors had no choice but to agree.

After Linglong Niangniang entered the ancient cave, there was no more news, and the seven warriors waited outside the ancient cave for two whole days and two nights, and finally two of them couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to rush into the ancient cave to find their witch Niangniang, but the other five thought that they should continue to wait and obey the order of the witch Niangniang.

The seven warriors quarreled with each other like this. In the end, the two warriors entered the ancient cave. And they have not been heard from since.

In this way, until the fifth day, when the remaining five warriors were gradually losing confidence, the witch Niang Linglong miraculously staggered out of the ancient cave, Linglong at that time. The whole person has completely lost blood, and his face is terrifyingly pale. But the five warriors were overjoyed and didn't notice any of this at all. Linglong summoned five warriors to her side and gave each of them a glittering artifact full of strange magical powers. And told them that these five holy weapons were refined by her body after she eliminated the beast demon. But the beast demon is a monster of the world transformed by the fierceness of heaven and earth, although the body is destroyed, the soul is not dispersed.

The five warriors were shocked, and Linglong Niangniang said again, as long as these five holy weapons do not return to this ancient cave, the beast demon will never be resurrected! After finishing speaking, her body trembled again and again, and suddenly her seven orifices were bleeding. The five warriors were shocked, and the witch maiden used her last strength to tell them that they should protect these five holy weapons forever from the witch clan, and never let the beast demon come back to life, otherwise, it would be the end of the witch clan and the world. And she herself will stay outside this ancient cave for eternity, use her soul to suppress all demons, and lock them in the ancient cave. After barely saying this, Linglong Niangniang couldn't support it anymore, so she stood and died, and after a while, her body turned into a stone statue facing the depths of the ancient cave!

After the five warriors wept and grieved, they returned to the witch clan, although the witch lady died unfortunately, but the beast demon, the unprecedented enemy of the witch clan, was finally suppressed in that ancient cave, and the people of the witch clan were sad, but they also had a little joy and happiness. It's just that at this time, the five warriors who had risen in prestige because of the return of the demon slayer fought among themselves because they were fighting for the position of leader in the witch clan.

The witch maidens of each generation of the witch clan were appointed by the previous generation of witch maidens, but the maidens of this generation did not leave any instructions, and the five warriors all forgot to ask this question at that time. In this way, the Wu clan, which had always been prosperous and powerful, gradually split under the quarrel of the five warriors, and the people also supported one of them, and finally, it gradually split into the Miao, Li, Zhuang, Tu, and Gaoshan tribes in southern Xinjiang today, and the five key sacred weapons were also controlled by the five tribes.

Between the five ethnic groups, there is not stability and peace, especially the Miao and Li are the most hateful, tonight, the 100,000 mountains on the periphery of Qilitong, the two major enemies of life and death in southern Xinjiang, finally launched a life-and-death war.

The night was like blood, and countless blades of cold light shone one in an instant, crossing the quiet night sky, and attacking towards Qilitong, screaming again and again for a while, the war clouds rose, and the hatred accumulated for more than two hundred years finally broke out today.

A moment later, there was a rumbling sound from the depths of the clouds, and a huge fireball fell from the sky, mixed with wind and thunder, with a raging fire falling from the sky, in the center of the flame, it was actually a black fire, like the sun, smashing down towards Qilitong, the fireball had not yet smashed into the ground, and the terrible fire was baking the earth, and the flowers and trees were all withered, and even burned. The Miao people were all shocked and screamed in surprise, but the speed of the fireball was so fast that it smashed into the ground in the blink of an eye, 'Boom! A shocking and sharp explosion heralded the beginning of this great war, and countless stumps and broken arms flew out in the loud noise, which was unbearable to see, and there was a wail in all directions.

On the ancient altar, illuminated by the raging fire, a thin old man stood in the air, looking up at the sky. Although they were too far away to clearly see who that person was, everyone knew that it was the most mysterious wizard in the Miao altar.

The fire clouds in the sky are burning more and more, dyeing the sky red, as if to burn this piece of heaven and earth, as if it is a sign of annihilation, the heaven and the earth are destroyed, the Miao people stared at the sky in horror, and many villagers were pale and stood motionless.

"Women and children have taken refuge, Miao warriors, in order to defend their homeland, take up your weapons and drive the invaders out!" The Miao patriarch Tu Ma Gu shouted loudly.

Boom, the night wind whistling coldly, the mysterious enemy from nowhere, the Miao warriors only took up arms to fight against foreign enemies, and suddenly exclaimed, a group of enemies suddenly appeared behind the Miao warriors, and the killing sound was loud, and the ambush soldiers of the other party had already infiltrated Qilitong.

Inside and outside, obviously this is the other party's strategy, the Miao people were shocked, Tu Ma Gu's face changed greatly, the sudden change caught him off guard, Qili Gu has always been easy to defend and difficult to attack, there is only one mountain road leading to the outside world, Tu Ma Gu has already sent people to defend, but the other party unknowingly sneaked into Qili Mountain, and killed at such a critical moment, is it ...... Is it really the day of the Miao people to exterminate the seeds tonight?

"Kill!" At the critical moment, Tu Ma Gu stood up, as the patriarch of the Miao tribe, he could still calm down at this moment, knowing that the situation was in danger, Tu Ma Gu led the Miao warriors and rushed out first, and the Miao warriors behind him took the lead to follow.

The flames burned, the heavens and the earth cracked, and the group of devil-like warriors, with hideous bear head tattoos on their chests, rushed out of the darkness with a roar. His eyes were full of fanaticism, full of bloodlust, and he was alone, tall and incomparably tall, with his naked upper body scarred, armed with a huge stone axe, fighting in all directions, and everywhere he passed, blood flowed all over the ground, and wails everywhere he went.

The Miao warriors were known for their bravery, but tonight the incident happened suddenly, and the dog god barked at the sky, which was a great omen of a thousand years, and the Miao people were in turmoil and frightened; Second, the Li people have been in ambush for a long time, and suddenly attacked, coupled with the courage forged in the bitter and barbaric land of southern Xinjiang in the past two hundred years, and the situation that if they do not succeed, they will die, and the Miao soldiers who dominated southern Xinjiang that they killed for a while could not resist and retreated one after another.

Tu Ma Gu's eyes seemed to erupt with fire, but at this moment, he had seen the appearance of the enemy clearly, and shouted: "Li clan! ”

The patriarch of the Nali tribe raised his axe and hacked a Miao warrior to death, and looked here with a cruel smile, "Miao dogs, two hundred years of enmity, today I will ask you to repay it all!" The words fell, as if reflecting his words, countless warriors of the Li tribe roared in unison, like a beast barking at the moon, with endless madness, killing one after another, and the Miao people couldn't resist it, and they were about to collapse.

At this critical juncture, suddenly in the valley, a low and mysterious voice sounded, like a whisper, like a ghost, echoing and entwining every inch of Qilitong. The Miao warriors were instantly overjoyed, and their spirits were shocked, on the other hand, on the side of the Li people, from the patriarch down, there was a look of panic on their faces.

The great wizard whose prestige shocked southern Xinjiang finally appeared at the most dangerous moment for the Miao people! (To be continued.) )
