Chapter 69: Mountains and Seas

Hearing this, everyone's fear was suddenly replaced by deep incomprehension and shock.

Although I don't know what Chunting meant, it sounds like we have unconsciously come into contact with the secrets of ancient times again.

It is not difficult to hear from the meaning of Chunting's words, in ancient times, it seems that there really was a special existence with a human face and a snake body, and this existence was not a separate individual, but from the same mysterious race.

If this is the case, then it also means that in all the records that we can know so far, all the people who show the state of human heads and snake bodies, such as Nuwa, Fuxi, Shennong, Xiahou, etc., are actually all from this special group.

And if this is true, then a new problem arises before us today.

We thought that perhaps because of the long period of time, the group to which these people belonged was forgotten by people over time, but if we think about it carefully, it is not difficult to find that there are many strange things in this matter.

There is no doubt that whether it is Nuwa, Fuxi, Shennong, or Xia Hou, these people are all characters in myths and legends, although I don't know whether they really exist in this world, but they have been revered as gods since ancient times.

And the reason why we know this is entirely because the shadow of these legends and stories can be seen everywhere in various records since ancient times, from the age of mythology to the present, even if they have been passed down for thousands of years.

And since their names have been passed down to this day, why has there never been any record of this particular group to which they belong?

If you think about it, if it is really forgotten because of too much time, then it is absolutely impossible for us to know the names of these legendary people today, and it is impossible to know so many myths and stories that are like the Arabian Nights.

If this is the case, it also means that the stories that took place in the age of mythology seem to have been deliberately concealed, and under the covert operation of these people, future generations can only know the names of these legendary characters and some of the things they have done.

After the secret operation of these people, except for the part they wanted to let future generations know, the other parts have been deleted and concealed by them in some unknown way, which is why we have never heard of the true origin of these people.

And the true origin of these people who have been concealed so far may be the mysterious group mentioned in Chunting's mouth.

And just when we were shocked by the existence of this mysterious race, Chunting seemed to have recovered his emotions, only to see him stand up straight, and then look at the pattern on the mural and speak slowly.

"In mythological times, the snake was different from any other living creature in the world, and for the people of that era, the snake as a creature has always represented an extremely mysterious symbol."

Then, in our confused eyes, we slowly spit out a few records of humiliation from Chunting's mouth.

"The country of black teeth is in its north, it is black, it eats rice and eats snakes, one red and one is green, next to it, one is said to be in the north of Zhuhai, it is a black head, and it eats rice to make snakes, and one of its snakes is red."

"There is a valley of the soup below, and there is a fuso on the valley of the soup, bathing for ten days, in the north of the black tooth, in the water, there is a big tree, and on the ninth day it is in the lower branch, and one day in the upper branch."

"The concubine of the rain is in the north, she is black, each hand a snake, there is a green snake in the left ear, there is a red snake in the right ear, one is said to be in the north of the ten days, she is a black body and a human face, and each a turtle."

Although I was still a little confused when Chunting first spoke, after hearing this, I suddenly realized, looked at Chunting and responded confidently.

"Chunting, isn't what you are talking about recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas?"

Although the content of the Classic of Mountains and Seas is obscure and difficult to understand, because the Classic of Mountains and Seas has been known as the world's first strange book since ancient times, most people in the world have read it.

Therefore, I only gave a hint, and everyone immediately reacted, and a hint of clarity appeared on each other's faces, confirming that the record in Chunting's mouth was from the Classic of Mountains and Seas.

However, looking at Shen Lang's confused expression now, it is clear that the people I am referring to do not include him.

"Brother Ting, Brother Chuan, what are you talking about, how is it the same as the Book of Heaven, my head is big when I listen to it, and I still don't have a clue."

"Shen Lang, let you read more books if you have nothing to do, you just don't listen, the records in Chunting's mouth just now are actually from the world's first strange book The Book of Mountains and Seas."

Although I was a little helpless to see him like this, there was no way, since he asked the question, then I had to explain it to him.

"The Black Tooth Country, Tanggu and Concubine Yu that he just mentioned are the three place names recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and this passage is a general description of the human beings living in these three places."

Looking at Shen Lang's appearance as if he understood or not, I seriously recalled the content of Chunting's words, and had a faint conjecture in my heart.

The Black Tooth Country, Tang Valley, and Concubine Rain, these three places are closely connected, and in addition to the Tang Valley in the middle, the humans in the Black Tooth Country and Concubine Rain seem to have an indissoluble bond with snakes.

In this way, could it be that the mysterious group with the head of a snake is located here?

"Han Chuan, you are right, this is exactly the record in the Overseas East Classic of Mountains and Seas, since ancient times, the world has believed that the Book of Mountains and Seas is just the whimsical words of human beings in ancient times, and only a few people have always firmly insisted that the content of the Book of Mountains and Seas is true, but because they can't find any evidence, they can only insist on their own ideas, but they can't prove it in any way."

Although I managed to hear where this account came from, Chunting's expression did not show a hint of satisfaction, but continued in a quiet tone.

"However, as early as Yang Guang's clothed mound, I told you that in ancient times, there were indeed higher beings than human beings and all kinds of creatures that seem unbelievable now, and their characteristics and lives have been recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, even after thousands of years, this book still exists in the world."

"The birth of this book is actually just because Emperor Yu traveled all over the famous mountains and rivers in Shenzhou in order to control the floods, and saw countless wonderful places in this world, so after the floods were successfully controlled, Emperor Yu recorded what he saw and heard scattered, and let Boyi and Houji sort it out and write a book in the world."

"So strictly speaking, the Classic of Mountains and Seas is actually a documentary literature, and everything recorded in it is the true appearance of this world in ancient times, but time flies, vicissitudes of life, and ruthless time has changed everything, so that future generations will never have the opportunity to see the original world."
