Chapter 4: Healing: Twenty-Four, Bogda
The day before the arrival of the Western Xia army, the Council of Elders sent four elders, each leading three hundred people to make a detour to the back of the Western Xia army. On the day the Western Xia army arrived, Bogda did not cross the river to engage in battle, but held on to the riverbank. In the evening of the same day, the Council of Elders suddenly told all the women and children to immediately withdraw to the mountain, and all the men of appropriate age took their tools and set off with the three elders sent by the Council of Elders. That night, I went to a source of a river that had been closed a few years ago and asked everyone to dig up the dam as fast as they could. Everyone doesn't understand, why didn't I take everyone to the war, but I took everyone to destroy the river dam in the middle of the night? Let me tell you that a few days ago, I led people to block the lower reaches of the river. Tonight, all three headwaters of the river will be opened. By tomorrow, the river that has been stored for several years will form a large lake in the area where everyone lives, and the 100,000 troops of Western Xia will be buried at the bottom of the lake. It's just that everyone can't get over the addiction of war, and it also tires everyone to rebuild their homes. It was only at this time that everyone understood the purpose of the Presbyterian Church. Although the home was destroyed, it can be rebuilt in the future. The big guys are all working hard. A benevolent brother accidentally hit his foot with a pickaxe. This was the only one injured this time. After dawn the next day, I took everyone to a high place to watch. Everyone saw three huge rivers erupting out, forming a mighty whirlpool on a huge grassland. The original grassland is gone, the original home is gone, and the 100,000 Western Xia troops who were still stationed here the day before have disappeared without a trace overnight. Everyone saw that between heaven and earth, there was only an endless magnificent wave.
Bogda released the water into a lake, thus burying the 100,000 troops of the Tangut people at the bottom of the lake. Since then, there has been one less grassland at the foot of Bogda, but one more large lake with a radius of dozens of miles. Later, Bogda raised fish in the lake. When the fish in this lake grow up, the taste is very delicious. After this battle, Bogda's position in that era was determined, so that Western Xia could no longer afford to attack. From then on, every year after the New Year's coins of the Great Song Dynasty were sent to the Western Xia, the Western Xia would obediently send half of them to Bogda, just begging Bogda not to invade the Western Xia.
Bogda never fought again.
Sixteen of us lived in the mountains, and each of us adopted some orphans. As these children grew up, some of the Presbyterians began to have the idea of running the world and began to implement it. Due to the support of the Great Song Dynasty coins sent by the Western Xia every year, Bogda's plan to infiltrate the Great Song Dynasty gradually took effect. With both economic and military hands, it gradually evolved into a situation of confronting the Great Song Dynasty. But then the rise of Daikin changed the pattern, and some members of the Presbyterian Church continued to operate in Jiangnan, and I retreated to Bogda to guard our base.
One day, there was an earthquake in Bogda, and in the middle of the earthquake, I was shaken to another time and space. At the same time, this memory was erased.
I let out a long breath at the thought of this.
I looked at the armor hanging on the wall, and I knew it was my equipment. Looking at this room, I knew that this was not my bedroom, but it was almost exactly the same as the bedroom I used to be. I thought of Aya, and as my memories awoke, I already knew about my relationship with her. I walked over to the cabinet, opened the cabinet and the mechanism in the cabinet, and took out the quaint box. I already know what's in this quaint box. This is what I got in Bogda after the storm at Lop Nur swept me into another plane. This is how I began to practice and quickly surpassed the limits of human beings. This is a book, a book from an ancient civilization, which records the infinite upgrade of human life and energy. This is the legendary supreme classic that Amei's family has been pursuing for generations. The name of the book is: "Returning to the Collection".
I put the quaint box on the bed and I didn't open it. I don't have to open it anymore, because everything it says is already in my head.
Looking at this quaint wooden box, I also realized that in addition to Ah Mei's family, there is another person who also knows the secret of this legend. This person even knows the whereabouts of this book better than Ah Mei's family, and knows better what this book is about. This man was the one standing behind the mercenary. Now I finally understand that this man's purpose is this book. If he hadn't been quite sure, he wouldn't have been so excited. I also realized that this person knew me very well and should be someone I knew very well. Therefore, many of this person's arrangements are actually aimed at me. It's just that this person doesn't know that no one in the entire tribe knows about the existence of this book, and the only one who knows about it is Aya. I don't know how Aya got here, but I know that Aya is only guarding the book for me, and she will never tell anyone else this secret. The reason why this man gave such cruel orders to those mercenaries was because this man understood my weaknesses and wanted to force me to obey in this way.
Looking at this quaint wooden box, I understood that it was it that brought disaster to the entire tribe. Now that I know the source of the disaster, I must find a way to eliminate it. Since this person came with such fanfare, this person must be hiding among the mercenaries. This man will never tell anyone the secrets of this book, and this person will only show up at the critical moment, and this person will only take it himself. Only by finding this person can the calamity facing the tribe be truly eliminated. I'm not attacking because of the mercenaries this time, these mercenaries can't make any waves in my eyes now. I know that if this person is not found, the mercenary's problem will be solved, and this person will continue to cause trouble. With the energy of a mercenary of this size that this person can use, he will definitely have a back hand, and it will definitely be difficult to guard against at that time. If this man's next action is chosen after I leave, with the strength of the tribe, it will be difficult to resist this man's attack with modern and even high-tech weapons at any cost. At that time, the tribe may suffer a catastrophe.
I looked at the armor hanging on the wall and had an indescribable feeling in my heart. It's been a long time, and maybe a thousand years later, I'll still wear it. A thousand years ago, I wore it and took the ancestors of this tribe across the grasslands. A thousand years from now, I will wear it again and lead the descendants of this tribe to fight to defend their homeland.
At this moment, I heard Aya's approaching footsteps, and when I looked up, I saw Aya pushing the door and entering. I opened my arms and exclaimed, "Oops! ”
Aya was stunned for a moment, then opened her arms and flew towards me like a bird.
