Chapter 415: Legends or Facts

I stood at the edge of the gate space, constantly wandering, Lao Wang and Zhang Momo were completely stunned when they saw this kind of place for the first time.

It was probably the first time that Bandacsador had come to the abyss in the depths of the Danmeng Basin, his expression was still calm, and his eyes were constantly wandering within the reach of the torch light, but our lighting tools were too backward, and the light range was only a small area, no matter how closely he looked, he couldn't see why.

My hesitation has always been up and down, which is the biggest weakness of my character, and I have always been indecisive when I encounter many things. The idea that has been made is ready to be overturned at any time and reconsidered.

But it's too important, it's too high. I don't know about the face curse behind the three of them, I know very well that this is an established fact, no matter how the situation changes, this is an indisputable fact. However, because of this incident, the impression of Bandacado in my mind has changed subtly.

279.135, this coordinate is undoubtedly a very, very crucial one among the countless gates, what will happen if Bandacsaddo knows the gate marked by this coordinate? I can't judge now.

Perhaps it was the heavy dangerous aura emanating from the gate space that frightened Lao Wang, who usually gossiped constantly, was silent at the moment and didn't say a word. I had been standing at the edge of the gate space for at least ten minutes or so, and Bandacsaddo had already sensed my hesitation.

"Where are you talking about?"

"Inside." I reached out and pointed into the distance.

"Take me there." Bandaca sighed: "You and I have concerns, but we don't have a choice. ”

Bandacsada is right, he is an important character in this big event, even, a turning point. It was from him that the big events changed. Now I can't tell whether the result of this change is good or bad.

I dispelled the hesitation in my heart and placed Lao Wang and them on the edge of the gate space. After thinking about it, it didn't feel right. I wasn't completely sure that I would be able to take Bandacsada through that particular gate and then walk out with my whole body. If I can't get out of Bandachado, what should they do?

I compared with the three of them, the way out of the abyss from here is very simple, they should remember that the ecological environment of the Danmeng Basin has not deteriorated relatively speaking, and there is no problem for the three of them to survive here. I told them to let them return to the surface if I didn't come out for a long time.

Without waiting for Lao Wang to say anything more, I resolutely turned around and walked into the gate space. I don't want to experience that kind of goodbye before life and death, there are many words that can only be buried in my heart.

Finding the coordinates in the gate space is not a very complicated thing for me, as long as I grasp the law of the distribution of the gate, I can deal with this seemingly complex special geographical environment. Bandacsada walked behind me, constantly watching the gates around me.

"I remembered a story."

"What's the story?" I slowed down and glanced back at Bandatchado.

"A story from a very, long time ago." With a torch in his hand, Bandacado closed his eyes and thought about it: "I'll tell you." ”

It is impossible for Bandacharda to suddenly tell me a story at this time for no reason, since he said so, there must be his reasons, I didn't ask, and continued to walk forward slowly, while secretly counting the doors around him, while listening to Bandacharda's story.

The story told by Bandatsado comes from the stone leaf book that was handed down by their family. The content of the stone leaf book is very complicated, and in a sense, it is actually a history book of the Zhangxiong nation.

Before the advent of writing, the inheritance of history basically relied on oral transmission from generation to generation. This kind of history cannot be regarded as detailed historical materials, especially in the ancient period, and most of the historical materials handed down by people are mixed with very strong mythological colors. Ancient peoples in many parts of the world may have similar legends, such as Nuwa in the mainland, the Three Emperors and the Five Emperors.

In the ancient legend of Zhangxiong, there is one that is clearly recorded in the Book of Stone Leaves. The legend took place shortly after Zhang-zhung's ancestors settled on the plateau.

I don't know if it's true, or if the Banda family created momentum after the hereditary position of Zhangxiong, in short, in the minds of many Zhangxiong people, the ancestor of the Zhangxiong people is the ancestor of the Banda family. This claim has been circulating for many years, and although there is no particularly conclusive evidence, a claim that has been circulating for thousands of years has dominated people's thinking from time to time. Everybody said so, and the people of later generations thought so.

The ancestors of the Zhangxiong people multiplied, and the tribe gradually prospered and became powerful, and the population increased dramatically. However, the harsh geography and natural environment of the plateau have limited the living space, and the ancestors of the Zhangxiong people have been working hard to make the tribe more prosperous.

On one occasion, the ancestor of Zhangzhung may have left his homeland with some people in order to migrate or to find a more suitable place to live. At that time, people were completely unfamiliar with the world outside the tribal territory, and no one knew where the ancestor of Zhangzhung had gone.

After a long time, about four or five years later, the ancestor of Zhangzhung returned. He returned alone, and the rest of the people all died in the middle of the journey.

Although many people died, and although the ancestor of Zhangzhung suffered a lot from the journey, he was very excited when he returned, and he told his people that he had received the blessing of heaven and that in the future, their territory would become rich and rich.

The Elephant Male did not know what the concept of heavenly blessing was, but they believed in their leader.

The words of the ancestor of Zhangxiong have been fulfilled, in the next few years, the territory of the tribe has undergone some changes, the weather, precipitation, temperature, have changed compared with before, not to mention the wind and rain, after all, limited by the natural environment, but these subtle changes have been enough to make the development of the tribe to a higher level.

The people of the tribe were completely convinced that this was definitely a blessing from Heaven for the Elephant Hung Ancestor. Everyone imagined that if this situation continued, in less than ten years, the population of the tribe would increase dramatically, and the territory to be developed would become more and more extensive.

However, the good momentum lasted only two or three years, and after two or three years, a sudden disaster almost wiped out the tribe.

It is said that the sky fell apart, hail fell for three or four months, the wind and snow were blowing, all the crops and livestock were killed, and most of the people of the tribe died.

In the aftermath of the disaster, the survivors were terrified, wondering if some part of the tribe had done something to make the heavens angry, causing the catastrophe. Because of the storage of two or three years, the tribe's supplies were still enough for the surviving people to survive, and the ancestor of Zhangxiong left the tribe at this time and embarked on a long road.

After nearly two years of this journey, after the return of the ancestor of Zhangxiong, he told his people that he had obtained the understanding of God and that the situation would soon improve.

Perhaps it was the natural disaster that frightened the people, and they were a little skeptical that it was impossible for human power to compete with the heavens, and they doubted that the heavens would really be able to forgive them by relying on the prayers of the ancestors of Zhangzhung.

In this world, there are still miracles.

After the second return of the Shozhung Patriarch, all the natural disasters disappeared, and the tribal territory returned to its original state. Although the damage caused by the natural disaster was great, with the concerted efforts of the entire tribe, they recuperated and gradually redeveloped.

This may be the beginning of the Zhang-zhung people's belief in the gods and the heavens. Because of this incident, all the Zhangxiong people are convinced that there are gods in their heads, and everything in this world is under the control of the gods.

Ten years later, the tribe was strong, the population increased dramatically, and the territory was constantly expanding. As the life of the Patriarch was coming to an end, he told his people that he was not dying, but receiving a call from heaven.

At this time, the Zhangxiong people trusted the ancestor of the Banda family very much, and they all believed that the ancestor really accepted the call of heaven and left.

This incident is completely recorded in the Stone Leaf Book, although the original Stone Leaf Book is lost, but the contents of it have been handed down in the Banda family.

The story seems to be over, a happy ending, however, only those within the Banda family know that this is not the case.

Before the ancestors died, they left some words for future generations. These words are top secret within top secrets, and no matter what time of day or what happens, these words cannot be leaked.

He told his descendants that there were no gods in this world, and there was no heaven. His descendants were shocked when they heard these words, because even the people within the Banda family had always believed that it was the ancestors who had obtained the channel of communication with the Divine and thus led the tribe to develop and multiply.

Once again, the Patriarch solemnly reaffirmed that there are no gods in the world. However, there is one place that quietly dominates everything in the world. The calamities of the tribal realm, as well as the prosperity of the clan, are all related to this place.

The Patriarch said that it was a place full of gates, all of them tall and heavy, and it was impossible to know who made them. Among the countless gates, there is a gate, and all the secrets are behind that gate.

It was only at this time that the people of the Banda family knew that the ancestor had traveled twice to the place where there were gates everywhere, and then found the gate. They wanted to ask more clearly, but the Ancestor wouldn't say.

The Ancestor may not want the truth in his heart to be completely annihilated with his death, but he also doesn't want anyone to find the door again.

When the descendants of the Banda family studied the Book of Stone Leaves, they used to study this ancient story very carefully. Especially when it came to Bandacsada's grandfather and father, this ancient story was told countless times.

"That's the story." Bandacsada reached out and pressed my shoulder, held the torch and asked, "Can you hear anything?" ”
