The Yan people who walked out of the valley had serious disagreements about where they would go in the future, some felt that they should find another barren place to continue to live in seclusion, while others thought that after so many years, they should return to the place that once belonged to them.

In the end, the Yan people separated into two strands again, each running to the east and west. Nan Jiuxiao is the descendant of the Yan tribe who advocated returning to his hometown.

Nan Jiuxiao's branch settled down after returning to Yanling, and did not say a word about the past except for retaining his surname. Especially Yanling is already the world of the Yan people, and the Nan people do not dare to act rashly, but just survive in silence.

They still remember the hatred of the past, and although their power has been very weak, the hatred is transmitted in the hearts of each generation and multiplied indefinitely. They are waiting for their time, waiting for their chance to take back what is rightfully theirs.

However, the Yan clan has not forgotten the Nan people who were betrayed by them, and they have always been looking for the whereabouts of the Nan people, so when a person surnamed Nan appeared in Yanling, it immediately attracted the attention of the Yan royal family.

At that time, the most taboo of the Yan Dynasty was the Nan clan, and they sent people to assassinate them many times, but they could not kill them all, but the map that recorded the return to the Cangxiu Valley inadvertently fell into the hands of the Yan royal family.

The map was annotated in the earlier Gayi language used by the Kalu people, which was created by the Nan people. But the Jiayi language has been destroyed by the Yan people for many years, so when this map was obtained, no one in the Yan Tomb could understand it.

This map is related to the secret of hundreds of years ago, and the Yanling royal family does not want to be known by the world, so it has become a secret that can only be passed on between the kings of the Yanling dynasties. Because the Yan clan knows that the Nan people will come back sooner or later to take revenge, they must exhaust every means to find out the secret of this map.

No matter how tightly guarded a secret is, there will be times when it will be leaked. The matter of the map was revealed from there, and several other countries all knew that there was a secret map of Yanling, which recorded a peerless secret that no one knew. Even the symbol at the back of the map was known to several other countries.

That symbol is not only on the back of the map, but also on the map. The Yanling Imperial Family studied diligently, and finally suspected that this map contained evidence that the Zhongnan people of the Jialou Alliance were the rulers in the first place.

That is, the whereabouts of the long-lost Qiankun seal.

It is not by chance that the southern people of the Jialu people can become leaders at the beginning, and the courage and good fighting are one thing, and the other reason is that they once obtained a stone seal that was naturally generated by heaven and earth. And one side of this lithograph has the character on the back of the map. At that time, the Nan people said to everyone that this was the will of heaven and earth, and it was God who gave the Nan people the power to lead everyone.

This seal has virtually become the symbol of the leader, and with it it has the power to lead the whole clan, and the Nan people named it "Qiankun Seal". After the Nan people were slaughtered, the Yan people did not find this Qiankun seal that symbolized power, so they guessed that this seal was taken away by the fleeing Nan people.

Don't look at the traces of the Nan people have been erased and the words have been destroyed, but the other ethnic groups have been passed down from generation to generation, and there are also many deeds about the Nan people that have been handed down, especially the Qiankun seal, which has supreme divine power in the legend, and has almost become a divine object that controls the world, making everyone want to take it for themselves and become the legendary person who can control the world.

But what rights can a stone bring to people? It's just a manifestation of ambition.

Because of this, this map was transformed into a map containing the whereabouts of the Qiankun seal, and several other countries were also trying their best to obtain this map, or to know where the places marked in the map were.

It is for this reason that the Yanling royal family began to send people to search for the descendants of the Nan people, and wanted to capture them to ask for the secrets in the map.

Nan Jiuxiao has undoubtedly become the target of all countries, and countless people are looking for his whereabouts. In desperation, Nan Jiuxiao went to a remote village under the alias Ah Jiuzang, and it was here that he met Yan Mengling, and also became close to her and had children.

Regarding the Qiankun Seal, Nan Jiuxiao unveiled this thousand-year-old secret for everyone.

He explained that the Qiankun seal was not a stone seal generated by heaven and earth at all, but it was just a clever trick played by the Nan people at that time. It was they who found a stone in advance and engraved the characters of their own Nan tribe to coax everyone.

It is said that at that time, the life of the people of Jialu was bleak and they did not have enough to eat, and although the people of all ethnic groups gathered together, they were always worried about survival. Seeing that people were starving to death and freezing to death every day, the Nan people believed that if they wanted to survive, they had to migrate until they found a new suitable land for survival.

However, this suggestion was not supported by the other ethnic groups, who were stubbornly unwilling to leave the land where they had lived for a long time, and would rather starve to death here than leave.

For the sake of everyone's survival and reproduction in the future, the Nan people came up with such an idea to deceive everyone. The purpose is actually to save everyone, once they find a good place to continue their lives, and then tell everyone about this trick, then people's survival is guaranteed, and naturally they will no longer care about this white lie.

Who would have thought that before this matter was spoken, it was besieged by other ethnic groups and almost wiped out. So this secret slowly turned into an untold legend.

And that character is actually an ancient script of the Southern people, which means "home"!

The reason why it appears on that skin map is because it records the way home. The Nan people thought that they would return to this place in many years, but in order to prevent them from forgetting the way home, they drew up such a map, and marked the place on the map as their home in the ancient Nan language.

Sima Yongcheng was ordered by Emperor Yanrong to track down Nan Jiuxiao's whereabouts and find the small village. That day, it was just in time for Yan Mengling to take her daughter to the doctor, and there were only Nan Jiuxiao and Nan Guying, who was less than a year old, at home, and Sima Yongcheng met Nan Jiuxiao on that day.

In normal times, Nan Jiuxiao could have escaped with his martial arts, but at this time, he was already a husband and father with a wife and children, and escaping meant giving up everything he had. Nan Jiuxiao loved his wife and children deeply, and in desperation, he told Sima Yongcheng the truth.

Before meeting Nan Jiuxiao, Sima Yongcheng had been monitoring for several days, and he found that this Nan Jiuxiao was loyal and simple, loved his wife deeply, and cared for his children infinitely, so he was never like a traitor, so he took the risk to show up and meet Nan Jiuxiao and ask for clarification.

Sima Yongcheng, who knew the truth, smiled helplessly, he didn't expect that the Yan royal family had been deceived by a joke for so many years, which could be regarded as a punishment for their innocent slaughter of others.

Since Nan Jiuxiao was innocent, Sima Yongcheng decided to help Nan Jiuxiao get out. He asked Nan Jiuxiao to escape through the back door with the child, while Sima Yongcheng went around to the front to lock the door and set it on fire, creating a false impression to hide from his subordinates.

At that time, Sima Yongcheng didn't know that Nan Jiuxiao's wife was the princess of Yanling, and he only thought that a village woman didn't know anything, so naturally she wouldn't be a target, as long as Nan Jiuxiao escaped, she could go back to her life.

Unexpectedly, this did not arouse Emperor Yan Rong's suspicions, but aroused Yan Zhen's suspicions. In order to protect the innocent Nan Jiuxiao from being hunted down, Sima Yongcheng never revealed Nan Jiuxiao's secret, and he didn't want to kill him after many years.

Nan Jiuxiao finished talking about the past in one breath, and looked at Sima Hongyan with a trace of guilt, he said to Sima Hongyan: "Your father is a bad assassin to protect me, Miss Sima, I owe it to the Sima family." Alas! I don't know how to pay it back. ”

Sima Hongyan learned the truth about his father's death, and he was sad in his heart, but he also knew that Nan Jiuxiao could not be blamed for this incident at all. So she changed the topic and said, "Uncle, you may not know that Cangxiu Valley is actually a volcanic crater. At the beginning, the change of heaven and earth was not a catastrophe of heaven and earth, but the periodic activity of that underground volcano, and there was no major problem. As long as it calms down, it's okay to continue living there. ”

Nan Jiuxiao nodded stunned and said, "So that's the case!" ”

Nan Guying smiled on the side and asked, "Why do you even know this?" I know about the volcano, but it's the first time I've heard of its cyclical activity. ”

Sima Hongyan chuckled: "There are so many things you don't know!" ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, and Sima Hongyan said: "I didn't expect that a white lie at the beginning would turn into the bane of the competition for the world today, and so many innocent people have died for this." I don't know if the human heart is too greedy, or is the world impermanent? ”

Nan Guying said: "Actually, even if it is not for the Qiankun Seal now, there will be other reasons. In short, the ambitious person will use all the conditions that he thinks are useful to achieve his own ends. It's not uncommon to have a justifiable excuse for doing bad things. ”

Sima Hongyan's eyes lit up, and he said: "There is no Qiankun seal in the world, but it still makes so many people flock to it, so it's better to play a game with them." Tomorrow I will send someone to Dongning to spread rumors! ”

Nan Guying thought for a while and said with a smile: "You want everyone to think that the Qiankun Seal has been obtained by Dongning?" This method is good, and it immediately shifts the spearhead against Yanling. ”

Sima Hongyan nodded and said, "This time, no one will beat the idea of uncle and aunt for the time being, since Dongning has bullied aunt and sister Nan for so many years, he can't be so cheap for them." ”

Nan Xunyan said: "I'm glad that Hongyan helped me get angry, but don't make any trouble for you." ”

Sima Hongyan said: "Anyway, if I don't trouble them, they will come to me sooner or later." Instead of sitting back and waiting, it is better to take the initiative and not let their life be too easy. ”

Nan Jiuxiao and Yan Mengling looked at each other, both feeling that Sima Hongyan handled national affairs as if he was angry. However, since they were angry for Yan Mengling and Nan Xunyan, they couldn't say anything.

Nan Xunyan said excitedly: "How to rectify them, you tell me, I will help you!" ”

Sima Hongyan smiled: "You said you were going to be a bride, why are you still so angry?" You don't have to worry about these things, pack up your new house and wait for you to get married! ”

In front of his parents and brothers being teased by Sima Hongyan, Nan Xunyan suddenly felt embarrassed, so angry that he jumped up from the chair and grabbed Sima Hongyan, and said: "Let you talk nonsense, see if I don't screw your face!" Sima Hongyan ran away with a smile and hid behind Nan Guying.

Nan Jiuxiao and Yan Mengling laughed, watching their children laugh and play, and they were in a mess, but their eyes were full of love.
