Chapter 510: The Legend of Sumeru
In the mouth of the loudspeaker, the letter already knew the place where the Demon God Temple was opened this time, Mount Meru.
Mount Meru is not a stranger to Fang Xin, and in the past three years, Fang Xin has traveled to every place in the Western Regions, and Mount Meru is one of them.
And this Mount Meru is not a nameless mountain range in the Western Regions, it is also famous, and the legend about Mount Meru is widely spread in the Western Regions.
Legend has it that Mount Meru was originally just a flat land, and there was a city near Mount Meru, which was still flat, and in the city, a man from a poor family fell in love with a rich lady.
The love of the two is not favored by anyone in this city, especially the father of the rich lady.
Miss Fuji's father wants Miss Rich to marry a family of the same level to stabilize her family's strength, Miss Rich is equal to a bargaining chip in her father's eyes, and her father will not let the chips make their own choices.
But the rich lady and the poor man really love each other, and the rich lady can even die for the poor man, so she forced her to die and asked her father to marry her to the poor man.
And the poor man is also sincere to the rich lady, and he is also begging.
In the end, the rich lady's father finally decided to open up and allow the two to be together, but he had one request.
That is, he wanted to see the sincerity of the poor man, and he wanted the poor man to build a mountain of earth with a height of 888 zhang and 8 zhang out of sand and stones.
Eight hundred and eighty-eight zhang eight is an unattainable height for an ordinary person like a poor man who has not cultivated, even for a cultivator, it is equally difficult to achieve, and it is simply impossible to build a mountain of earth of such a height out of sand and soil.
The poor man also raised his objections, but the rich lady's father said that he would marry his daughter to him only if the poor man did what he said, and if he could not do it, he would not marry his daughter to the poor man even if she died.
Seeing that the rich lady's father was so resolute, the poor man had no choice but to start carrying sand and gravel to build the dirt mountain.
Everyone in the city knew that the poor man would not be able to fulfill the request of the rich lady's father for the rest of his life, and the rich lady's father refused him in a different way.
But the poor man did not think so, and he thought that this was a chance for him, and this was his only chance to marry his beloved.
Day after day, year after year, he carried sand and gravel and piled up mountains of earth, but he was still far from his goal of 888 zhang 8.
The poor man is just a mortal body, he does not possess Fang Xin's Thunder Phoenix Divine Body and Chaos Body, with his physical body, the mortal fetus simply cannot withstand the non-stop transportation for days.
Finally, one night, he died of overwork on the way to carry the sand and gravel, and when he was dying, he did not let go of the sand and gravel, his eyes were not closed, and his eyes were still on the dirt mountain that had a certain size.
He doesn't blink an eyelid to death.
In this way, his body was discarded in the barren mountains and mountains by the rich lady's father, and the rich lady was also forced by his father to marry the heir of a large family.
The rich lady does not want to accept this fact, and she wants to commit suicide to accompany the poor man.
But her father threatened her with her mother, and if the rich lady dared to kill herself, he would kill her mother.
Seeing that her mother, Miss Fujia, who had been taking care of her considerately since she was a child, did not dare to commit suicide, and in her life of washing her face with tears every day, she ushered in the day of her eldest family.
And this day was the hundredth day of the death of a poor man.
The rich lady wore a red veil on her head, and tears flowed down her face, and in this way, she married the husband she had never met.
But just when the two of them were about to worship the world three times and enter the cave room, the originally clear sky suddenly became dim, and the yellow sky actually rolled up a wind roll mixed with countless sand and stones out of thin air, which is a sandstorm that is impossible to appear in the Western Plains!
The sandstorm did not stay where it was after it appeared, but struck in the direction of the rich lady as if it had been premeditated.
The wedding attendees saw the sandstorm and became chaotic, and the wedding could not continue in an orderly manner.
The red gauze on the rich lady's head was also blown by the strong wind from the sandstorm and flew there, but the strange thing is that the rich lady's eyes did not have the panic in the face of the sandstorm, and even the tears had disappeared in his eyes.
There were emotions in her eyes that had not appeared for a long time, love, happiness, and intoxication.
This is an emotion that can only appear when facing a poor man in the past, but now it has reappeared in the eyes of the rich lady.
The rich lady looked at the sandstorm coming at her affectionately, and said softly, "You came to pick me up." ”
When the words fell, the rich lady's body was swept up by the wind attached to the sandstorm and fell into the sandstorm, and the rich lady's father was also caught in the sandstorm.
The rich lady was caught in the sandstorm with a smile on her face, and her father let out a scream, but in the huge sandstorm, his screams were completely drowned out, and no one could hear them.
After a while, the sandstorm stopped, and the sandstorm rolled up the sand and fell to the ground without support, and piled up into a mountain of earth, the height of which was exactly 888 zhang 8.
And there is a corpse at the top of the dirt mountain, with the help of the telescopic tool, everyone can see the appearance of the corpse on the top of the mountain, he is the father of the rich lady who was caught in the sandstorm, he died, his eyes did not close, and the horror in his eyes stayed forever at his last moment.
No one knew what he had seen in the sandstorm to show such a frightened expression.
The people present looked at the tall 888-zhang peak, the corpse on the peak, and the disappeared rich lady, and they all had a guess in their hearts, but all of them tacitly did not say it.
After that, this matter was widely spread in the Western Regions.
Some people say that the poor man's obsession after death turned into a ghost clan, got the inheritance of the ghost clan, and had earth-shattering skills, and came back to lead a sandstorm to take away the rich lady, kill his father, and avenge himself.
Others say that it was all a coincidence, just a coincidence.
It is even rumored that God was moved by the persistence of the poor man and sent down the will of heaven to help him fulfill his last wish.
Accounts differ and opinions vary.
It's just that after a long time, the 888-zhang-high earth mountain has become a real mountain, and this peak is now Mount Meru.
While recalling the legend he heard in the Sumeru Mountain area, Fang Xin had already stepped out of the Fighting City, went to Mount Meru, and rushed to the Demon God Temple to open.
