1. Prologue: Astrology and Gu

To the south of Great Xia, Songzhou and Mingzhou are also to the south, and it is a wild land called Baina.

This place, which is rarely visited by outsiders, stretches over the mountains and is full of ancient trees. It was also a part of the forest, but jumped on the ground, walked into the plain, began slash-and-burn farming, and gradually had the so-called writing, and even the self-proclaimed civilized Xia people, as they grew older, they had become indifferent to the memory of the forest, and they no longer had that kind of closeness, and they had a deep fear of the place that was no longer familiar. This fear comes from the strange, the dark...... and unknown.

In the past, there was a famous strange Xu Xiake, who loved to explore the secluded world, after traveling all over the Taizheng Dynasty, he went out to sea by boat, and went deep into the jungle, crossed the desert, walked through the Western Regions, and wrote a book "Xu Xiake's Travels", which described Baina as follows: "Yu Yu traveled to the sea, and Baina's trip was the most dangerous." The forests and mountains are continuous, and I don't know the north and south; Wolves, insects, tigers and leopards are everywhere. After the miasma and poisonous streams, eight or nine out of ten people were lost, and no barbarians returned. ”

Therefore, except for such brave men who are determined to explore the unknown places of the world, no one has set foot in this wilderness again.

The vast sea of trees, the whistling waves in the mountain wind, the howling of wolves, the cry of apes, the chirping of insects, and the chirping of birds, but they are only embellishments, and they cannot dilute the bleak starlight in the sky.

On top of a lonely peak, in a schist place, there is a man in white.

"If you don't go outside the plug, you don't know the roughness of heaven and earth; I don't know the depths of the universe...... Judging from the scenery in front of you, it is worth visiting......"

I don't know who it was saying, but there was a response.

"Read 10,000 books, travel 10,000 miles. Did you say that the ancients deceived you? ”

"So, otaku, there's no future......"

"Otaku? What is that? ”

"Otaku...... It's a strange being who only needs a table to stay alive. Sometimes they read at the table, sometimes they surf the Internet, sometimes they play video games, and a large table can provide them with all the pleasures they need in life. Or, at most, add a window where they can catch a glimpse of the worldly red men and green women, and give themselves the illusion that they can still be exposed to society, and it will be enough to survive. Regardless of the heart, I always feel that I am omniscient and omnipotent in some way, or I can call myself omniscient and omnipotent. All in all......"

"Anyway, it's the so-called nerd, isn't it?"

"Not really...... But most of them are sluts, but it's true. ”

"You're all ...... Martian, well, I don't understand. ”

The man in white couldn't hold it anymore, laughed, and said, "I didn't think you even learned this word...... Let's talk about something useful, Na people, what are they like, and how are they different from Xia people? ”

"Well, look up and look at the sky."

In the sky, of course, the stars.

Xia people thought that they were the reincarnation of the stars. Some strong men and heroes are even regarded as the embodiment of a particularly bright and important star in the sky. The emperor's surname in Daxia called himself Shangying Ziwei. Some people who are particularly murderous are often called Tai Sui. And those talented champions who are full of economic prosperity are respected as Wenchang.

Since everyone is a star, then things on earth will also have a counterpart in the sky, which is called celestial phenomena.

Therefore, there are so-called white rainbows crossing the sun, comets hitting the moon and other visions, and these will also be corresponded to the major events in the world.

The sky, which is divided into twenty-eight pieces, is called the Twenty-Eight Nakshatras.

For every constellation, there are many stars. The stars, or stars, can correspond to a person, a group of people, a place, or something else, or even, a weapon, that is, one of the most prestigious weapons in the history of Great Xia, the Heavenly Divine Soldier.

It is rumored that in the land of Tessie, there is also a practice of dividing the sky into eighty-eight constellations, but it is only one and two, two and one on the surface.

Na people are different.

Na people, believe in witches.

Buddhism has the so-called sutra and tantra, witchcraft is the sutra of accepting people's beliefs, and Gu art is tantra. However, this is just an analogy, Gu art is much more hated than Tantra.

It is rumored that witchcraft and Gu art are taught by Taishang Laojun. Witchcraft is passed down by Lao Jun himself, Gu magic, but his daughter took a fancy to one of the disciples, so she taught it privately. Lao Jun didn't like that disciple, so he expelled him from the portal with his daughter, and so the Gu technique spread like this. Because Gu art is such an unjustifiable spell, so the teaching is also very secret, and the heirs of witchcraft often look at Lao Jun's feelings, afraid that Lao Jun will remember the love of father and daughter and dare not kill Gu art, so Na people hate and fear Gu art.

Just as certain unprovoked beings are offered highly, lest they be unfavorable to themselves, Gu magic, or Gu gods, are also regarded as the most primordial existence in the underworld.

They believe that every person born has a natal Gu God. If you cultivate Gu art or witchcraft that is similar to the natal Gu god the day after tomorrow, you will be able to get twice the result with half the effort, and the ability and status of the natal Gu god will also determine the fate and future of the person after he is born.

Even the same Gu God will have different secret names depending on the host. The secret name of a person's natal Gu god, except for the possibility of getting a little revelation in his sleep, can only be known by the secret method of a Gu woman with a high level of Taoism. If this secret name is known to outsiders, even if the other party is just a helpless urchin, they can easily control the host. Therefore, Naren takes his natal Gu God very seriously, and even the closest people will not reveal it.

In the legend of the Na people, the Gu God is a ferocious and cruel existence. There is a way to practice Gu is to put more than a dozen of the most powerful poisonous insects in a sealed jar, bury them in the ground for 7749 days, and the last ones that survive will become Gu. And the gods of Gu can cause huge disasters at will. It will rain down a plague for the disrespect of a certain race, and it will punish a certain Na for the slightest offense to it, and it is a moody and destructive god.

Therefore, ordinary Na people often have a respectful attitude towards Gu gods. They tend to practice some witchcraft, so that they can have a little bit of defensive power in the face of Gu magic, and give themselves some psychological support. They will be silent about the Gu women around them, the women who practice Gu arts, and only dare to talk about those who are far away; They are more willing to trust the wizards around them, ask for help from them, and even beg them to save some people from the torture of Gu magic; They used all kinds of indifference and hostility to repel the Gu women around them.

And Gu Po is the spokesperson of the Gu God, and she is also the person who is alienated by Na Ren. Because according to legend, once they learn Gu art, they have to use it to harm the people around them, otherwise, they can only fulfill it in their own bodies. Because of estrangement, so lonely; Because of loneliness, so paranoia; Because of paranoia, so estranged...... Although they represent Gu Gods with infinite power, they are only some lonely and helpless weak women after all, so they also bear the fear that Naren dare not show to Gu Gods. Driven by this fear, Gu Po can only use Gu magic to prove or express herself, and this often exacerbates the fear of the people around them......

"So, Gu Po, is it an existence that is somewhat similar to otaku?"

The man in white listened to the sermon for a long time, and finally found the joint to speak, and hurriedly interrupted so that he could take a rest.

(Gu, or Gu God, is taboo and should not be easily asked; Gu Po, you should stay away, and if necessary, you can use spells to bully to win the respect and closeness of ordinary people...... ）

"Well, also, Na people, not a race. Na people are just the general name of the Xia people for the Yi tribe in this place, or Baina...... It's not bad, the three major clans of Gainbaina all have a Na character in their names - Ghost Na, Hua Na, and Gunna. In addition, there are still arrests, Dong people, etc., which are also among the Baina. Different tribes, with the so-called totem different, all who claim to be Na people, all take the maple tree as their ancestor, and because of the different fathers, they are ghosts, flowers, gunas, etc., there are dogs as fathers, there are cows as fathers, there are eagles as fathers, and the rest are like apes, such as pigs, such as chickens, pheasants, and so on. Their customs are different, and if you go, you need to be careful. ”

"I see."

(Well, the place of the Cheap Star of the Suzaku Bird, the Onina Clan, I'm coming!) I don't know what kind of person is this slut? ）
