Chapter 54: The Queen Mother of the West

"What's wrong with me, oops, how do I feel so much pain all over my body, it's like my body has been dismantled, Lao Hu, did you knock me out, but how do you feel so painful all over my body when you stun me, are you a ghost, staring at me if you don't hit others", after Yan Wenbin woke up, he found that he was covered in bruises, and he didn't know how he got it.

"This place is very evil, whoever walks up is unlucky, you just walked up, people fainted and fell into the water from above", in fact, Lao Hu They will not tell Yan Wenbin the truth.

Why is it dark outside, wasn't it cloudless just now?"

Yan Wenbin knew that Lao Hu was in his own hands, because Lao Hu's face would be red when he lied, and now Lao Hu's old face was as red as a monkey's buttocks, and he knew that Lao Hu was lying at a glance.

"There is a total solar eclipse today, so it's dark, rest, and ready to go, don't go to that altar if you're fine, and be careful of the attack of the giant python" Yan Wenbin rubbed his chest with his hands after speaking, and now he touched his chest, he would scream in pain, but when he lifted his clothes, there was no scar on his chest at all, and Yan Wenbin felt very strange, why did he have an inexplicable pain in his chest.

When Yan Wenbin and they were ready to set off again, Yan Wenbin limped past the altar, but Lao Hu stopped, saw that there was no one behind him, and quietly walked up the stone steps leading to the altar.

But as soon as Lao Hu walked up the three steps, he sprayed a mouthful of blood, and Yan Wenbin turned around and saw that the three fires on Lao Hu's body had all been extinguished, Lao Hu fainted and fell to the ground all of a sudden, rolling down from above, and Yan Wenbin knew that Lao Hu had played big this time.

Yan Wenbin hurriedly stepped forward, but when he stepped on the steps, he heard "The Queen Mother of the West, the lord of Kunlun, with a human face and a snake body, is the chief of all the demons in the world, the mother of all demons, once gave birth to ten thousand demons against the sky, and was finally burned by the thunder of the sky, and its essence and blood were turned into reckless Kunlun, whenever the heaven and earth are visionary, there will be a resurrection of its demons."

The voice of the person who said this was very thick, and when he heard it, he felt that his eardrums were about to be torn, and he couldn't help but have a mouthful of blood in his chest to spurt out, but Yan Wenbin could only forcibly hold back, he knew that it would be okay to help Lao Hu go down, and once he fell, there was no possibility of standing up again.

However, the magic sound was very powerful, so that Yan Wenbin couldn't support it, and the blood that he forcibly swallowed just now couldn't help but squirt out again.

"Little doll, don't believe her, get out of here", the old man who was fishing reappeared, sat under the altar, turned his back to Yan Wenbin and said, but Yan Wenbin couldn't see the old man's face clearly.

"Who are you," said Yan Wenbin, looking at the old man who was fishing.

Yan Wenbin"...... In fact, I forgot what my name was, I have lived in the Lechuan River for a thousand years, you can call it Gang Wenbin, and the Lechuan Taoist talked about it, because he had been waiting for Gang Wenbin on the bank of the Lechuan River for three thousand years, and he forgot his name.

"I'm Yan Wenbin, what's your name, say it quickly, or I'll use the Soul Destroying Nail to kill you, an old immortal, if you didn't beat me just now, now my whole body is still sore", Yan Wenbin knew that it must be this bad old man who deliberately corrected himself.

On the edge of the sea of blood, he didn't play chess with this bad old man, he deliberately cleaned himself, although he changed his dress now, but Yan Wenbin still remembered this old man, even if this bad old man turned into ashes, Yan Wenbin would not forget it, thinking that their backs were the same and belonged to the same person.

"Tell me

, Why is the Queen Mother of the West called the Mother of Ten Thousand Demons, why did she lead the Ten Thousand Demons against the sky, and was finally burned by the thunder of the sky, and its essence and blood were turned into reckless Kunlun, whenever the vision of heaven and earth, there must be a resurrection of its demon son, is it possible that this person is one of the demons of the remnants of the Three Realms, what does this sentence mean" Yan Wenbin said aggressively, and now there are still many mysteries that plague Yan Wenbin himself.

Back then...... Forget it, you will understand it yourself when the time comes", Lechuan Daoist suddenly kept silent, if he said it himself and leaked the secret of heaven, he would be destroyed by the thunder, and like the Queen Mother of the West, he would be burned by the thunder.

"When is the time, do you know that bad old man in Fengyuan? It's like the ancestor of the Sealed Abyss, say quickly if you know it, why do you all run out every time I reach the time of death, and then when I wake up, I don't remember anything."

This is what I promised him, you will know later, as for when you will know this secret, everything is the will of God, I can't disobey it, I can't be the third Queen Mother of the West, otherwise I will be burned by the thunder", Lechuan Daoist still didn't look at Yan Wenbin, Yan Wenbin just saw one of his backs.

Tong Wenbin, we can meet again, we have to live well, this is our expectation of you, and don't let down the Queen Mother of the West, in order to save you, she led the ten thousand demons to deal with the heavenly court, and finally threw you to the abyss, the lord of the abyss pulled you out of the sea of blood, not only saved you, but also gave you a thousand years of life, just so that you can uncover the mystery before the year before last, and there are still people waiting for you below", Lechuan Daoren disappeared after saying this.

And the magic sound that Yan Wenbin heard also disappeared with the disappearance of the Lechuan Daoist, but the feeling that the soul was about to be pulled out of the body was as uncomfortable as peeling the skin, and Yan Wenbin felt that his whole body was burning like a flame, and it was very scorching.

"Get Lao Hu away", after Yan Wenbin finished speaking, Heizi immediately carried Lao Hu forward, went to the platform in front of the pool, and put Lao Hu on the ground.

But Yan Wenbin gritted his teeth and walked down step by step, and he almost fell down several times in his middle body, and finally tested his perseverance to hold on to the ground, and the stinging symptoms just now disappeared.

Yan Wenbin's uncle came over and glanced at Lao Hu, shook his head, did not speak, found a small paper figure from the eight treasure bags, wrote Lao Hu's birthday, plucked one of Lao Hu's hair, took a drop of blood on Lao Hu's middle finger with a needle, and then put the little paper man in a cardboard box, took out three sticks of incense and an earthen bowl, and poured the nectar in the kettle into the bowl.

Uncle Tong Wenbin first lit it with a stick of incense, circled it three times on Lao Hu's head and shoulders, and then drew a charm in the air above the nectar bowl filled with water, and then gave the water to Lao Hu to drink after the painting.

After three times in a row, Uncle Tong Wenbin finally put the paper figure in an earthen bowl and lit it, but this time he did not use water, but used wine, and when the paper figure was all burned and the ashes were integrated into the bowl, the remaining half bowl of wine was poured into Lao Hu's mouth.

Yan Wenbin saw that the three fires on Lao Hu's body were completely refreshed.

Heizi, you take good care of Lao Hu, the rainstorm is still going on, our time is running out, Leng Da Beauty, let's continue",

Yan Wenbin still wants to keep going, because the secret that may plague him is in the last coffin, and the idle Yan Wenbin wants to solve this mystery, so he doesn't want to delay more time here.

"Or Xiaogang, I don't want the box, let's go out", Leng Bingyan was afraid that something would happen to Yan Wenbin, although she really wanted to find the box, but compared to the box and Yan Wenbin's life, Yan Wenbin was more important to her, after so many tribulations, they finally got together, and now Leng Bingyan can't tolerate Yan Wenbin having an accident in front of her eyes.

"Why don't you want the box, didn't we say that you helped me sell the gold, I will help you find the box, how can you regret it now, rest assured, Lao Hu can't die, his life is very big, even if he goes to the Yama Palace, the Lord of Yama doesn't dare to accept him, and he will wake up after a while", Yan Wenbin looked at Lao Hu and said.

"If you don't leave, I'll go first, Lao Hu is still counting on the things below to take back to marry his daughter-in-law, the gold above may have been washed away by the surging river, and now I don't have a penny, how can I go back to see my mother."

At the beginning, Yan Wenbin went to the old Hu family's coal kiln to dig coal in order to make money, and now the old Hu family's coal kiln has been sealed by Guang Sanye, and he hasn't got a penny, and in another month, his nephew will have a hundred days of wine, how can he go home without money.

"But you look around, there is no place to go, now there are stone gates in all directions, we should open that stone gate and leave here", Shen Yin Yang took out the compass and found that the stone gates in all directions had all become dead doors, and he did not leave this ghost place at all.

"Go into the water, there is another world under the water, when I went into the water just now, I found that the bottom of the water is not normal, and it is not this stone bridge, it is overhead on the water, there is a tomb under the stone carving, which can be seen under the water, now we hurry up and hurry down, no one can find here", after saying that, Gang Wenbin jumped into the lake.

Soon they swam to the bottom of the altar and found that there was a big pit below, and everyone went to the big pit, and Yan Wenbin looked at the tomb beasts on the edge, and pressed down the tomb beasts around them, and there were stones on their heads that moved over and sealed them in the big pit, and at the same time the water in the pit was also falling, and finally they fell on a clearing.

Yan Wenbin glanced around, and found that they were in a square, the bottom was paved with stone slabs, very flat, and at a long distance, he saw a huge stone statue in front of him, a person holding a bow and arrow to the sky, and a handsome horse beside him.

This person's name is Zhige Alu, a creation hero in Yi myths and legends, and the ancestor recognized and most revered by all the Yi people.

"Wherever the Yi people live, you will see some sculptures and murals with the same theme, these sculptures and murals may have different shapes, but they portray the same person, tell the same story, the same plot."

The protagonist is the creation hero Zhigearu, and the theme of the sculpture and mural is his bow and shooting the sun.

Legend has it that in ancient times, the dragon eagle dropped three drops of blood from the sky and dropped it on the body of the virtuous Pu Yan girl, who became pregnant, and this eagle was the father of Zhige Aru.

At first, Zhige Aru's mother thought it was a bad omen and asked Bimo (priest) for advice, but Bimo said that it was fate that knocked on the door and that it should be a good thing.

After a few days, the woman had a sore stomach, and gave birth to Zhige Aru on the night of the Dragon Day in the Year of the Dragon.

According to Yi tradition, it is better for babies to be born during the day, but Zhige Alu is born at night.

As soon as he was born, he did not listen to his mother, and when his mother wanted to hold him, he broke free, and took pleasure in shaking the heavens and the earth all day long, making the heavens and the earth shake.

The next day, he refused to drink his mother's milk, nor did he want to be wrapped in swaddling clothes, let alone let people carry him.

On the third day, he refused to sleep next to his mother.

On the fourth day, he didn't listen to his mother at all, and he still looked like a ghost.

On the fifth day, when the people in the house did not know what to do with him, they put him in a copper box and carried him up to the hillside.

A week later, when his mother returned to see him, he was no longer there, and it was then that they learned that Zhige Aru had come from an extraordinary background.

After Aru was born, he cried all day long, and the cry disturbed the heavenly realm, and the Heavenly Emperor sent the ogre king Tang Boamo to capture Aru's mother and son.

When the mother and son were captured in the air, the mother threw Aru down to save her son and fell into the dragon's lair in the abyss, and Zhige Aru grew into a powerful hero under the dragon's raising.

It is said that Zhige Aru, who has magical powers, rode a flying horse turned into a condor named Simududian to rescue his mother in the prison, and along the way, he dedicated himself to eliminating harm to the people.

Once upon a time there were seven suns on the earth, and humans didn't need to cook it at all, as long as they put the food on the ground, it would naturally be cooked.

Fearing that so many suns would wipe out the human race, he climbed six different kinds of trees from the bottom up, and on the last tree, he smoothly drew his bow and shot down six suns, and the seventh arrow brushed the last sun, so that the current sun would not be so hot and dazzling.

He destroyed demons and monsters, conquered poisonous snakes and beasts, trained Lei Gong Lightning, and shot down five of the six suns and seven moons in the sky with a divine bow and arrows, leaving only one sun and one moon, and since then people have lived a happy and beautiful life.
