Chapter 148: A Sad Past
With a stomach full of questions, Yin Tiancheng opened his mouth and asked, "I don't know what grievances there are between the king and Di Jiang, you hate him so much?"
"During the Hongmeng period, human beings had not yet been born, and the gods and demons were at peace with each other. But the good times didn't last long, because of a dispute over the dominance of the Heavenly Realm, the Protoss and the Demon Clan clashed, and then the first Three Realms War broke out. ”
"The Great War of the Three Realms?" Yin Tiancheng's eyes shrank in vain, remembering that Lu Wu said that the Protoss suffered heavy losses in the last Great War of the Three Realms, and then a deadly plague broke out and caused most of the demigods to die.
When he was in a trance, he heard Qi Qi say: "At that time, the gods were strong and the demons were weak, so after the war broke out, the demon clan was defeated by the gods and retreated, and the demon venerable abandoned the sky and had to put down his body and ask our four spirit beasts to help." We didn't want to get involved in this matter, but Di Jiang was persuaded by the abandonment of the sky, and in turn persuaded us and other brothers to help the demon clan. Since the boss agreed, it was not easy for us to refuse, so we went down the mountain to help the demon clan. ”
Yin Tiancheng asked again: "Then did you win later?"
Qiqi's eyes dimmed, and he slowly said what had happened next.
At that time, the four fierce beasts joined the battle, and the morale of the demon clan was naturally greatly boosted, and the abandoned sky immediately led the demons to launch a large-scale attack on the god clan.
When the emperor heard the news, he was not to be outdone, he dispatched troops and ordered the five god emperors to lead the heavenly soldiers to meet each other in the future.
In the melee, the four fierce beasts and the five god emperors fought together, the situation at that time was that the poor Qi was the enemy of the Golden Emperor Rong, the gluttony against the Red Emperor Zhurong, and the Han Zhu against the Sea Emperor Gonggong, while the Emperor Jiang was alone against the Earth Queen Tu and the Spring Emperor Haobi two top masters.
Seeing that the four fierce beasts successfully contained the five great god emperors, the demon venerable abandoned the sky and freed up his hands to kill those heavenly soldiers and generals.
This battle lasted for three days and three nights, and in the end, Yubi was killed by Di Jiang, and the Protoss was defeated, and retreated to Kunlun and did not dare to fight.
After the end of the war, the demon clan counted the results of the battle and found that they had only folded five hundred and forty-seven demon soldiers, and the Celestial Clan had killed and injured countless heavenly soldiers and generals in addition to the killing of Emperor Chun.
At this moment, the entire demon clan was overjoyed, and they all thought that the elimination of the god clan was just around the corner.
That night, he abandoned the sky and held a banquet in the Ten Thousand Demon City to entertain the four fierce beasts, preparing to destroy Kunlun in one fell swoop the next day.
Hearing this, Yin Tiancheng couldn't help but ask: "According to this, the Protoss should be defeated like this, why did I hear Lu Wu say differently, he said that now the Three Realms are still respected by the Protoss, and the Demon Clan is still in a weak position?"
"Alas, the world is unpredictable!" Qi Qi sighed: "Why didn't the deity think this was the case at the beginning, and the bad thing was at the celebration banquet that night! At the end of the banquet, the Nine Springs were lost by abandoning the Heavenly Destiny, and the Demon Clan no longer had the ability to fight against the Protoss. ”
"What, Demon Venerable is dead, what happened that night?" Yin Tiancheng was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "Could it be that the Protoss launched a large-scale sneak attack during your banquet that night?"
"It would be nice if it was just a sneak attack, the key is that God Jiang suddenly turned his face and betrayed us. As soon as he finished saying this, Qi Qi's eyes burst into anger.
What! Emperor Jiang, the boss of the four fierce beasts, actually took refuge in the Protoss? Yin Tiancheng was stunned on the spot, this was the answer he didn't expect.
After all, he killed Yubi, and that god was the high-ranking Emperor of Spring!
If Di Jiang had already colluded with the Protoss, this bitter meat trick was too unreasonable, right?
Yin Tiancheng couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "Could it be that Di Jiang didn't kill Emperor Chun at all, but joined forces with the Protoss to make a game to confuse you?"
"No!" Qi Qi shook his head and said, "It is true that Yabi died at his hands, and his body is still buried in an unknown valley in the north of the Lombard Kingdom. Except for the current Spring Emperor Jumang, no one knows the specific location of this tomb. ”
Yin Tiancheng was speechless in shock, but he also guessed that there must be something strange in this.
After thinking for a while, Yin Tiancheng said: "From the point of view, I'm afraid that Dijiang didn't have the intention of rebelling at first, but something happened during the period between the war and the time when he participated in the Heaven Abandonment Wine Banquet, which made him change his mind and join the Protoss." ”
"Sure enough, it's a smart human. Qi Qi nodded approvingly and said, "Afterwards, Di Jiang also admitted this to our three brothers, but he never explained the reason to anyone. ”
At this moment, Qi Qi looked at the blue sky above his head, and his eyes revealed infinite desolation.
At this moment, his mind seemed to return to the long, bloody night that he could not look back on.
That night, the Demon Clan and the Four Fierce Beasts were all very drunk, and no one would doubt that the Demon Clan was about to become the supreme ruler of the Three Realms.
The demon venerable abandoned the sky was also very proud, he took the initiative to toast to the four fierce beasts, but at this moment of celebration, Di Jiang, who had been drinking in a muffled voice at the banquet, suddenly said a sentence that no one expected: "Abandon the sky, take it when you see it, I advise you not to fight with the gods, if you keep the peace, you can get the right to rule the earth." ”
Hearing Di Jiang say such a terrible thing, the monsters were stunned, and then thought he was joking.
Seeing that the atmosphere at the scene was a little embarrassing, Han Qi hurriedly came over to play a round, saying that Dijiang was drunk and talking nonsense, so don't mind.
Unexpectedly, Di Jiang actually pushed the Han Zhu away and repeated what he had just said, with a very serious attitude, and the monsters realized that he was not joking at all.
The entire lobby fell silent in an instant, and Qitian did not speak with a gloomy face.
An ignorant demon shouted at Di Jiang: "How old are you, why do you give orders to our demon clan." ”
When Di Jiang heard this, he turned his face on the spot, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he twisted the neck of the little demon.
At this moment, he couldn't hang up on his face, he shouted and scolded Di Jiang, but Di Jiang's next action was to rush forward without saying a word and launch a fatal attack on Qi Tian.
The lobby suddenly became a pot of porridge, and the other three fierce beasts hurriedly stepped forward to persuade them, wanting to forcibly separate Di Jiang from the abandoned sky.
As if it had been agreed, a deafening sound of killing suddenly came from outside, and just when the demons were at a loss, the four god emperors led the troops to kill them.
The demon clan was caught off guard, and was beaten to the ground, and in the end, even the abandonment of the sky died in the hands of Di Jiang.
After this battle, the demon clan suffered heavy casualties and was defeated, and since then there has been no strength to fight against the god clan.
Yin Tiancheng was speechless in a daze, and it took him a long time before he calmed down and asked, "King, how happened to your four brothers later?"
"At that time, I was captured alive by the Protoss, and I thought that my life was not in danger. But Di Jiang came over and told us not to blame him, saying that he had only made up his mind to help the Protoss today. He also said that the emperor promised him to let our three brothers think about it behind closed doors, and as long as we can change our ways, he will let us regain our freedom one day. ”
After a pause, Qi Qi said with an angry face: "My lungs are about to explode, and only then did I believe that Di Jiang really betrayed us. Since then, I have never seen this traitor again, but I have heard that after this battle, Houtu had the idea of retiring and returning to Chengdu Zaitian, and Dijiang, who betrayed his friends to seek glory, naturally became the new emperor. ”
"No wonder Qi Qi hates Di Jiang, it turns out that this is the reason!" Yin Tiancheng couldn't help but sigh secretly, and at the same time understood the reason why Di Jiang could have the dual identity of a god and a demon.
After that battle, the gods all said that Dijiang was determined by the first battle and ended the catastrophe of the Three Realms, even if some people talked about him behind his back a little unscrupulous, but they also thought that Dijiang was sacrificing small righteousness to become a great virtue, and should be advanced to become a god emperor.
As for why he suddenly betrayed his brother, the reason for this is probably only known to him.
The Emperor of the Earth has remained silent on this matter to this day, making it a major unsolved case in the Three Realms.
Qi Qi also said: "After the war, Emperor Jun detained my three brothers in Chishui, Xiaoshui, and Guiru respectively, and let me wait until I saw the light of day all year round. ”
He raised his hands and shouted: "See clearly, this is the shackles that the emperor and the old man gave me, and every 100 days there will be a divine attack, which makes me feel painful." He has broken free from the shackles, and he will definitely kill the heavenly court to find the emperor and the emperor to take revenge on the emperor. ”
"The king was angry, and drank a few jars of wine, and ate a few cows to suppress his fear. Yin Tiancheng hurriedly persuaded him.
"Of course, you mortal will not have unforgettable pain without that great battle, I still remember that night was full of snow, and the Ten Thousand Demon City was silver. But after the end of the war, the snow-white earth of the entire city was stained red with blood. Think about it, just because of Di Jiang's betrayal, how many innocent demon clans have died!" When he said this, the hatred on Qi Qi's face did not disappear.
"Is it because the previous Emperor Chun died in battle that Ju Mang took over the position of Emperor Chun?" Yin Tiancheng saw that he was full of anger and hurriedly avoided the topic.
"Yes, Ju Mang only became one of the five great god emperors at that time and took over the Weiyang Palace in Jieshi Mountain. ”
Yin Tiancheng asked again: "Then when did you compete with Hou Yi again and lose in his hands? Why don't you hate him, but admire him, could it be that he is kind to you?"
"It's a long story. When he said this, Qiqi's tone changed.
Yin Tiancheng continued to listen to Qi Qi's narration before he realized what was going on.
Compared to Qiqi, Tao Tao and Han Qi received a lighter punishment, but they were trapped at the bottom of the red and weak waters, so they could take advantage of the negligence of the gods who guarded them to wander around the world from time to time.
Gluttony even seized the opportunity to escape a thousand years ago, hiding in a place that no one knows about and is at ease.
But Qi Qi was not so lucky, because his place of exile was Guiru, which could be said to be the day of no future, and if it wasn't for Hou Yi interceding with the emperor, he would not have had a chance to return to the world.
Hearing this, Yin Tiancheng asked with a smile: "Could it be that the offerings that Long Boguo offers to you every year are Hou Yi's ideas?"
"Not really. The ruins have a strong suction, and no living creature can escape from them, so I can only hide inside and survive on the fish and shrimp brought by the various rivers. But many fish and shrimp were torn to powder by the power of the ruins before they could be imported, so I was often hungry, which made me increasingly resentful of the emperor and the emperor, and cursed the two bastards every day to pass the time. ”
"I'm stupid, I don't know what this has to do with Hou Yi?"
After listening further, Yin Tiancheng realized that it was the former king of Longbo Kingdom who caught and ate the big turtles carrying the two sacred mountains of Daiyu and Yuanqiao, causing the two sacred mountains to have no foundation, and finally sank into the ruins.
In order to save the sacred mountain, Hou Yi came to Guiru, and the two sacred mountains had already been torn into pieces by the devouring power of the ruins, and no one had the ability to restore the sacred mountain to its original appearance.
Hou Yi sighed and was about to leave, but he happened to hear Qi Qi cursing the Empress and Di Jiang below, and he was immediately furious, so he sneaked to Qi Qi's dormant place and fought with him.
Qi Qi didn't take him seriously at all, because Guiru is the place where all water gathers, and this fierce beast's control of the water element has reached the ultimate realm, so he thinks that Hou Yi dares to duel with him in the Guiruins, which is simply killing himself.
But the reality was that he slapped Qi Qi hard, Hou Yi not only defeated him, but also used fire spells to crack Qi Qi's water demon method, which made Qi Qi lose convincingly.
"Is Hou Yi so powerful?" Yin Tiancheng exclaimed.
According to the principle of the five elements, water is the nemesis of fire, and Hou Yi actually used the fire element to restrain the Qiqi water spell, then his strength is too terrifying, it is simply to the unbelievable realm!
After listening to Qi Qi's words, Yin Tiancheng was completely shocked, but he didn't expect that the legendary Hou Yi was unimaginably strong.
"That's right!" Qi Qi drank the jar of wine, and then said, "His strength completely surpasses that of any of the Protoss, and it is only natural that I will be defeated at his hands. According to the deity, I am afraid that the only one who can fight with him today is Dijiang. ”
"What happened to you and Hou Yi?" At this moment, Yin Tiancheng couldn't understand why Hou Yi spared this fierce beast since he defeated Qi Qi.
"Hehe, at that time, I thought I would die under Hou Yi's hands, so I looked up to the sky and shouted, saying that I had never killed an innocent person in my life, and I was unwilling to die before I took revenge!"
Yin Tiancheng secretly laughed after hearing this, and said in his heart: "You four fierce beasts are all vicious, I don't know how many things you have done that hurt heaven and reason, you can actually say that you did not kill innocents, and your skin is as thick as a city wall." ”
After listening to it again, Yin Tiancheng realized that he was wrong to blame Qiqi.
At that time, after Hou Yi heard Qi Qi's words, he didn't believe it like Yin Tiancheng, he laughed and said: "You evil obstacle eats countless people, I don't get rid of you today, then God has no eyes." ”
But what he didn't expect was that Qi Qi turned out to be ashamed of his face, and scolded him: "You trash, if you want to kill the deity, do it early, but don't splash dirty water on me!"
Hou Yi heard that there seemed to be something unspeakable in his words, so he put down his bow and arrow, and asked Qi Qi about the reason.
After he heard Qi Qi say that he never took the initiative to provoke others, he suddenly wondered: "The world says that you like to eat human flesh, is it groundless?"
Qi Qi then told him frankly, only to clear up Hou Yi's misunderstanding.
Hearing this, Yin Tiancheng asked curiously: "Could it be that the world says that the king loves to eat human flesh, is it a frame-up?"
"Alas!" Qi Qi sighed and said, "That's all because my unscrupulous nephew Tenggen is eating people and hurting people everywhere in my name, so the Three Realms have a great misunderstanding of the Buddha-figure! ”
"Is there any mistake, the truth of the facts is actually like this!" Yin Tiancheng sighed, thinking that the old saying is true, it is better to believe in books than to have no books, if I hadn't heard from Qi Qi himself today, I really didn't know the hidden meaning of this.
