Chapter 399: People can't walk into the same river twice
Yongle Palace, after the formal meeting, Ji Le left Yang Luan and Phoenix alone. Although Nangong Qingyan was worried about her daughter, everyone in Taoyuan Village officially joined the Xia Kingdom and needed her, the queen, and Yang Ke to receive her.
Therefore, only Yang Luan held the phoenix and responded to Ji Le's inquiries in the palace.
The phoenix didn't recognize life, and took the initiative to fly to Ji Le's lap, staring at the big round eyes to observe His Highness the National God.
Strange, how does this guy look like it's made of flames? It looks like our phoenix clan.
Ji Le's core origin is the fire, and under the observation of the phoenix true pupil, Ji Le is like a fire of civilization that is constantly burning.
While the little phoenix observes Ji Le, Ji Le is also stroking her glittering feathers.
Well...... This phoenix is indeed in line with the traditional description of the phoenix by the Xia Kingdom. Carrying the five virtues, the hair has five colors, and it is the embodiment of auspiciousness and civilization.
Yang Luan sat opposite Ji Le and talked about what he saw after receiving the Phoenix Inheritance.
"I saw her in a golden phoenix's nest. Her mother protected her with divine powers, and then turned into a light egg and sent out of the universe. In the final scene, her mother is swallowed up by an illusory realm and then falls into a deep sleep. ”
"Sleep?" Ji Le was keenly aware of something: "It's not death falling?"
"Yes, her mother did not die, but fell into a deep sleep along with the rest of the world. ”
"I saw that all the life forms in that universe were asleep. ”
As soon as these words came out, the Longhua lamp on the table suddenly flickered a few times. And the starry sky ancient snake hidden in Huo Quzhi's sleeve also fell silent, and the snake's tail tightened Huo Quzhi's arm.
"That's a good thing. Ji Le suppressed the confusion in his heart, and said to the little phoenix with a smile: "Your mother is not dead, you can rest assured for the time being." In the future, maybe you can save your mother. ”
Sleep is not death, if the Phoenix Mother Goddess escapes from the dream, she can still meet her daughter.
The little phoenix snorted softly, as if thanking Ji Le.
Ji Le thought about it and instructed Yang Luan: "How to raise a phoenix, no one in our country knows." But there are a lot of plane trees in the farmer's palace, so you go and find some for her to nest in. I still have some bamboo rice in my hall, and you can bring it back with you when you go back. ”
"Thank you Father of the Nation!" Yang Luan jumped up and said, "Leaving from the inheritance, I can't replenish it through the Phoenix Divine Power, I'm worried about how she will eat." ”
"That's right, Father of the Nation. This piece of jade ......"
"Keep it for now, and later order someone to make it into a jade seal, which can be regarded as a symbol of your father's inheritance of royal power. ”
Ji Le deliberately instructed Yang Luan to carefully control her newly acquired demigod power.
Not long after, Yang Luan left with the phoenix in his arms.
After she left, Ji Le's expression darkened. He saw Yang Luan alone, just to determine whether the phoenix was a threat to the Xia State. Unexpectedly, I actually got the news of a big guy.
The silver snake came out of Huo Quai's sleeve: "If you guessed correctly, it should be the Eternal Dream God King." ”
Mixed emotions revealed in the snake's eyes: "That god-king has only one idea. ”
"The Creator is asleep and cannot escape his creation destiny. But if everyone goes to sleep in his dreams together, they can continue to live freely in their dreams as creators in immeasurable dreams under his management. ”
Hence the name of his dream the eternal kingdom. ”
"The mother goddess of the phoenix is supposed to be a creator. But he has sunk into the eternal realm, trapped in that immeasurable dream, unable to extricate himself. ”
The concept of the Eternal Dream God King is similar to the Great Reincarnation System of the Later Land, which is based on itself and brings the Creator into his own management.
However, compared to the reincarnation system of the Houtu clan, where the creators take turns to appear and take charge of their own world reincarnation, the dream of the Eternal Dream God King is a bit illusory.
"Immersed in dreams, how can there be a future?" Huo Quzhi shook his head and said, "No wonder the Phoenix Mother God refuses to let her daughter enter the dream." ”
The ancient snake didn't speak, and the ancient snake line and the phoenix line have always been incompatible. Originally, he was still a little greedy and wanted to eat this little phoenix. But when I heard that the other party's mother had fallen into the eternal realm, I felt a kind of sympathy.
Entering the realm of eternal dreams, sleeping forever in the kingdom of the god-king, where is there still the dignity of the Creator?
Huo Quzhi: "Ji Le, what do you say? I think this little phoenix is harmless to my country." Not only that, but she is a descendant of the creator God, which is good for us. ”
The descendants of the creator god, the last descendant of the universe to be sent away, must have the potential to become the main god.
The ancient snake also echoed: "The phoenix is a very special race, and legend has it that this mythical bird originated in the primordial universe. When the primordial universe was destroyed, a phoenix escaped. This phoenix has been constantly circulating in the worlds created by other creation gods. Where we live, there must be a powerful and brilliant civilization born. They prefer civilization, can travel through time and space, and their supernatural powers are extremely special. ”
Moreover, the cultivation of the phoenix lineage does not need to rely on the power of the world, and the purebred phoenix can be promoted to the main god only by relying on its own bloodline.
But this kind of phoenix cub is not very attractive to Ji Le, he cares more about another thing.
Ji Le asked quietly, "Bi Yao, do you remember the boy we saw in the Jade Dream?"
"If the Dream Weaver is a woman, then who else but her and the Dark Goddess can manipulate dreams at will?"
"Who is the person who manipulated the dream and helped me meet with Yuanxi?"
"Ji Le-" Just as Huo Quzhi was about to answer, Yuan Xi broke in: "I'm back!"
After the goddess was promoted to the upper god, she ignored the persuasion of her father and stayed in the Void God Realm to adapt to the divine power, but directly returned to the Xia Kingdom to find Ji Le.
After checking Ji Le's body up and down to see if there was anything wrong, she asked, "What about those people in my family?"
"I was invited into the side hall to rest. ”
Because Yuanxi went to the Pantheon, her demigod dependents were invited back to China by Ji Le.
"I was going to meet them, too. Ji Le summoned Xi Shi and instructed Xi Shi to set up a banquet to entertain Yuan Xi's family.
Yuan Xi took pity on their plight and took them back to her temple to take care of them, and over time, she gathered a group of disabled people in the original temple of the earth.
The person who led his companions out to find the goddess this time was a demigod named Rutgers. This demigod was originally the child of a union between an earthly god and a mortal woman. He is handsome and dashing, and his dexterous hands are praised by those around him. It is known as the hero of the silver hand.
But it was precisely because of these hands that he was persecuted by the concubine.
The concubine wanted to add an ornament to the palace, and happened to value Rutgers's hand, so she sent someone to cut off the hand and use it as a candlestick to support the candle.
Just when Rutgers was bleeding too much and was about to die, he was rescued by Moto-hee and brought back to the temple.
Rutgers brought several heroes in the temple to the banquet, and saw his own highness sitting at the same table with the god of the Xia Kingdom.
"Sure enough, just like Nia and her, Your Highness really plans to make a covenant with Xia Guo. ”
After thinking about it, Rutgers jotted it down.
Yuan Xi has a great kindness to them, and even bears a lot of notoriety that should not be borne for this, causing her to become an "evil god" spread in the outside world, and her reputation is not inferior to that of the concubine.
If someone can satisfy His Highness who is Yan Kong, and is not worried about His Highness's notoriety, he also hopes that His Highness will have a good home.
"I just don't know what Xia Guo thinks of His Highness?" Rutgers was very worried that Xia Guo looked at his Highness with colored glasses.
At this time, Ji Le was also whispering to Yuan Xi.
"You're a good hero. Although it looks physically disabled, its strength is very good. If you can recover your body, you should be able to improve your strength. If you make a few more trips over there in the Medicine King Palace, maybe Hua Tuo has a way. ”
"I've been there, but Hua Tuo said it was very difficult to do. ”
"Of course it's useless for you to go by yourself, you take my token. Tell him again that after these demigod heroes recover from their injuries, they will help Xia Guo volunteer until the end of this catastrophe of fate. He certainly has a way. ”
Hua Tuo was not satisfied in the past, and that was because Yuan Xi's dependents had nothing to do with the Xia Kingdom. He was busy with things in the Medicine King Palace, how could he have the time to go and diagnose a group of strangers?
But if these demigods are willing to help Xia Guo work, then it will naturally be different.
"Then I'll go back and try again?"
"Of course, Yuanhua Gong is not omnipotent, it is best to find some light injuries first, which are easy to heal. Is there anyone else in your temple besides these people?"
"Yes, there are some people in the Holy Land. I wasn't going to take you to the Sanctuary as a guest, but did you have an accident halfway?"
"Would you like to be a guest at our temple?" Suddenly Rutgers spoke, "Anyway, we will be back soon, if you want, you can come with us." ”
"Go to Yuanxi's Divine Domain?" Ji Le thought for a while, and responded casually: "Cheng-"
"No, I can't. Huo Quzhi immediately vetoed: "There are many domestic affairs now, and you need to deal with them." And there's no way they're going to let you—"
Suddenly, Huo Quzhi couldn't go on.
Cai Ji led the villagers to join the Xia Kingdom, and the Xia Kingdom had several more demigods out of thin air. Yang Ke was entertaining these people with Nangong and giving them corresponding treatment, and he didn't care about Ji Le at all.
Emperor Shi is also in retreat at the moment to familiarize himself with his divine body. Yi Yin wants to contact Cai Ji and find a position for Cai Ji in the Spirit Palace.
Cai Ji, as a great witch whose strength is not inferior to Yu Yuan, and has the inheritance of the mother of the earth, was canonized by Ji Le as "Bixia Yuanjun", and the Spirit Palace naturally had to give the corresponding specifications. Moreover, Cai Ji is one of the leaders of the group of ancestors in Taoyuan Village, even if it is to take care of their feelings, she must be given high treatment.
After these things are done, it will take three or four days, how can Yi Yin take care of Ji Le?
Huo Quai's calculations, several important members of the National Spirit Single Protection Association couldn't stop Ji Le at all.
He looked up at Ji Le, who obviously understood this, so he generously agreed to Rutgers' invitation.
"Forget it, I'll go with you. ”
Instead of letting Ji Le go out again and have any accidents, it is better to follow him and at least have a care.
And Huo Qubing secretly made up his mind that what happened last time would never happen again.
Moto-hee and Ji Raku are quick to act. Of course, it was also for Huo Qu's illness to report to Yang Ke and others.
After the banquet, the two of them packed up their actions and led everyone to Yuanxi's Sanctuary Temple in the west.
And the moment he saw the temple, a thought flashed through Ji Le's mind.
"The Parthenon?"
The temple presented in front of Ji Le's eyes is grand and majestic, with white and thick stone pillars belonging to the Greek-style Doric columns, and there are some mythological reliefs of the world on both sides of the temple.
The temple was of the same origin as the Parthenon he had ever seen, and was full of Greek style.
"Your Highness, who built this temple of yours?"
"When I first came to Earth, I had a deal with an outland civilization. This is the temple they have built for me. ”
This is the first shrine of Moto-hee on earth. It's just that the incense in this temple is very thin. Yuanxi's reputation in the land countries is not good, and this temple is mostly used by her to house the people she rescued.
After Rutgers and the others returned, a group of people from the temple also came out.
As Ji Le, it was also a group of disabled people.
Huo Qubing and the witches of the Xia Kingdom who came with him settled under the guidance of these people. And Moto-hee personally took Ji Raku on a tour of the temple.
In this temple, there are many frescoes and reliefs in the Greek style. However, these reliefs are all based on Yuan Xi, who is dressed in various Greek Hematon and holds a scepter, an olive branch or a bay leaf.
Suddenly, Ji Le saw a philosophical message in front of a pavilion.
It is an obsidian stele with a sentence written on it in Tumu script:
"You can't walk into the same river twice. ”
Seeing this, Ji Le's spirits perked up, and he hurriedly grabbed Yuan Xi, who was leading the way next to him: "Who left this!"
Yuan Xi was pulled by him and crashed directly into Ji Le's arms. I couldn't help but blush. can look up at Ji Le, Ji Le seems to be unaware, staring at the stone tablet.
Therefore, the goddess only needs to put away her careful thoughts and stand on the stele to look good.
Huo Quzhi pursed his lips behind him, only to hear Yuan Xi say: "I wrote this stone tablet, and the words on it were said by a scholar I know, that is, the creator of my temple design." ”
"You actually know Heraclitus?" Ji Le looked strange. Although he knew that Greek civilization also left traces in this world. But I didn't expect Heraclitus to be there.
"Yes, that's the name. It was Heraclitus of the third generation. The ancestral gods are very fond of the philosophy inherited from their school. The Advent Incarnation talked a lot about generations of Heraclitus. This sentence was written down at that time, and I wrote it on the stone tablet casually. By the way, I also have a lot of manuscripts from them. But I didn't have much interest in these ideas, so I threw them in the warehouse. ”
"Tell me that it is not a deviant to think that the root of the world is not a god, but an eternal living fire?"
Eternal living fire?
Huo Quzhi immediately thought of the Vulcan Church built by Ji Le.
This idea is very similar to that of the Vulcan Church.
Tyrannical creatures!
Ji Le immediately said, "Can you show me those manuscripts?"
"If you want? ”
Yuan Xi casually summoned a waiter and asked him to go to the warehouse to get the parchment roll.
Huo Quzhi stood behind him and took two steps forward: "Who is this person you are talking about, it is related to the Vulcan Church?"
"He was a Greek philosopher, and his ideas were very interesting. When I traveled to Greece with a friend, I learned a little bit about it. ”
Ji Le stared at the stele and said to Huo Quai: "For example, this stele, 'People can't walk into the same river twice. This sentence ostensibly refers to the inability of a person to enter the same river repeatedly. In fact, it means that everything in the world flows, and when we enter a river, the river will naturally flow downward. When we enter the river from the same place again, the river is not what it once was. In other words, we will never find the river we once entered. ”
"Similar to carving a boat to ask for a sword, the water is changing, the boat is changing, so there is no way to recover the lost sword?"
"It's a bit of a similar meaning, but it's still not quite the same. This sentence is to illustrate a philosophical idea that everything moves. While waiting for the manuscript, Ji Le not only paced back and forth: "Everything exists, everything does not exist." Everything in the world is constantly moving, changing, coming into being and disappearing. ”
