Chapter 1 The Shushan Wu Clan
Shu.
An ancient country.
Due to the steep mountains of Bashu, the wars in the Central Plains have rarely affected the land of Bashu throughout the ages, so Shu has formed a civilization that is very different from the Central Plains in thousands of years of history, the Bashu civilization.
The history of the ancient Shu Kingdom can be traced back to the era of Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang in the Central Plains, and the indigenous tribes that arose from the upper reaches of the Min River.
The Shu civilization is divided into several periods: Shushan clan, silkworm cong clan, Bai Guan clan, Yu Yu clan, and Kaiming clan.
In later generations, the poet Li Taibai wrote in "The Difficulty of Shu Dao": "Silkworm bushes and fish fish, how blank is the founding of the country! Erlai is 48,000 years old, and it is not populated with Qinsai.
The ancient Shu Kingdom used to be a splendid and prosperous country with its own civilization, but with the war in the Central Plains that lasted for hundreds of years, the seven warring states continued to fight, and after all, it still affected Bashu.
Eyeing it is the most powerful of the Seven Kingdoms, the Qin State, which was weakened in the early Warring States period, became the head of the Seven Kingdoms after the Shang Dynasty reform, and began the annexation war with the outside world.
And its first target is the land of its neighbor, Bashu.
In the face of this powerful empire, the remote Shu land was powerless to resist.
In the sixth year of King Ji Ding of Zhou Shenliang, King Qin Hui sent Zhang Yi, the heir of the Guigu, and Sima Cuo, a famous soldier, to march into Bashu, and the ancient Shu Kingdom perished.
Although the Shu Kingdom died, the Shu land still never really fell under the control of the Qin State, because the Shu State has a mysterious and powerful force, the Shu Mountain Wu Clan.
They are the guardians of the land of Bashu and the faith of all the people in this land.
......
In the mountains of Bashu, on a tall peak, two figures, an old man and a young man, stand tall, overlooking the rising clouds below.
The old man looked to be seventy or eighty years old, dressed in a coarse cloth shirt, with a cane, white hair and beard, and a wrinkled face.
He looked down at the land of Bashu below with cloudy eyes, and said in a low voice: "The country of Qin is too strange, hundreds of years ago, they were just a lowly race raising horses for Zhou Tianzi, but my Shu country is already Zhou Tianzi's guest. β
But later, when King Ping was king, this tribe of horse breeders helped Zhou Tianzi to resist the dog Rong and was made a prince, but it was just an inconspicuous small country, living outside the Saiwai and being despised by the Central Plains countries. β
The breeze blew through the old man's vicissitudes of life, and he murmured, "But it is such a country, after taking root in the land outside the Cypriot for hundreds of years, it has become one of the five hegemons. After the division of the three families, it was weakened for a period of time, and all the 600 miles of land outside Hangu Pass were occupied by the Wei State, ranking at the end of the Seven Warring States. β
"But a hundred years ago, after Shang Ying entered Qin, this country has grown up completely, becoming the strongest of the Seven Kingdoms, and my Shu Kingdom fell in front of it in an instant. β
A smile appeared at the corner of the young man's mouth: "The days are impermanent, how can there be constant strength and weakness in the world, the rise and fall of the world is nothing but vanity, just like the Qin State here now, even if he dominates the Xia, it may not last long, thousands of years later, it is another pattern." β
The old man looked at him: "Yin, I know that you want to leave Shushan and go to the Central Plains to witness the broader world, but now that the Seven Kingdoms are fighting, and the new king of Qin, Yingzheng, has just come to power, this person is ambitious, and he has the potential to swallow Zhuxia, and now the Central Plains is too chaotic." β
The young man said lightly: "Elder Gao, have you forgotten that I am the most outstanding genius in Shushan for thousands of years, King Yu is alive, even if you are no longer my opponent, although the Central Plains countries are chaotic, although there are many strong people, how many people can help me?"
The old man sighed and said: "You are indeed the first person in Shu Mountain, but the Seven Kingdoms of the Central Plains are vast, and there have been many masters over the ages, which should not be underestimated, not to mention that I have a sworn enemy in Shu Mountain, the Yin and Yang family." β
"The leader of the Yin and Yang family, Donghuang Taiyi, is mysterious and unpredictable, and his cultivation is profound, which is rare in ancient and modern times. And recently, the Yin and Yang family seems to have produced a genius called Concubine Yan. β
Hearing the Yin-Yang family, the young man suddenly asked, "I've always heard you say that the Yin-Yang family is our mortal enemy, but I don't know why?"
The old man sighed: "This is a story that is a long time ago. β
The young man said, "I have the patience to listen to you." β
The old man smiled at him, then frowned and pondered, as if hesitating where to start.
The boy didn't rush, looking up at the sky.
He's naturally strict.
In the previous world, what was recorded on the back map disrupted his plan, and he simply chose to leave that world directly and came to this era at the end of the Warring States period.
At this moment, at the end of the Warring States Period, Ying Zheng had just come of age, and was fighting for power with LΓΌ Buwei, and the nobles of the Six Kingdoms, who did not know that their demise was imminent, were still living their own extravagant lives.
Outside the temple, hundreds of schools of thought are fighting endlessly, and Confucianism, Moism, Taoism, Yin and Yang, Legalism, celebrities, doctors and other major schools attack each other and compete with each other.
Among the Seven Kingdoms, the dark tide is surging, and an earth-shattering wave is about to surge.
It was the best of times for him.
Shushan Wu Clan, this is his current identity.
The witch here is not the same as the witch of the Witch King of the Ten Thousand Poison Caves in the previous world, the so-called witch refers to the person who can communicate with heaven and earth, that is, the god who has opened up one of the twelve veins of heaven and man, and the person who senses heaven and man.
The word "Confucian" in later generations, in fact, is the evolution of "Wu", before the Zhou Dynasty, the status of Wu was almost the Confucian of later generations, and Yi Yin, a famous minister of the Shang Dynasty, was the famous Great Witch, which is similar to the meaning of Confucianism.
The Confucians claimed to be the herdsmen of the Son of Heaven, while the Shacers represented the will of Heaven and ruled the world together with the king.
The Shushan Wu Clan is a powerful race with ancient bloodlines, and each of them is born with a natural and human vein, which is unique.
Of course, it is precisely because the talent is too strong and it is difficult to give birth that the Shushan Wu Clan has always been scarce, even at the peak, the pure bloodline did not exceed the number of Dayan, that is, fifty.
However, in addition to the pure blood of the Wu clan, there are many subordinate clansmen with some witch blood in Shushan, and their talents are far beyond ordinary people, plus a large number, they are the backbone of Shushan.
The more famous of these people is the "Yu Yuan Guard" clan.
And the real pure-blooded witch of Shushan has only two veins, one is "Yu Shun", the other is "Xia Yu", respectively, from the legendary Shun Emperor and Yu Emperor, Yan Shi is a member of the Xia Yu clan, his surname in this life is "Him", is a descendant of King Yu, King Yu's real name is "Xi Wenming".
Hi Yin, this is his current name.
And the old man in front of him is the current great elder of the Xia Yu clan, Ji Gao.
He is also one of the two most powerful people in Shushan.
After thinking for a while, Ji Gao finally said hoarsely: "Everything has to start with the Yu Yuan Seal, you should know that the reason for the existence of our Shushan Wu Clan was because of the Yu Yuan Seal from the beginning. β
"Do you know what the word Yu Yuan means?"
Yan Shi said lightly: "Yu Yuan, Yu Quan, the mythical place of the sunset." β
Ji Gao stroked his beard and said: "Yes, Yu Yuan sealed, as the name suggests, it is the sun that is suppressed. β
Yan Shi frowned: "In this way, I probably know that the Yin and Yang family respects the three-legged golden crow, and the golden crow refers to the sun, one worships the sun, and the other suppresses the sun, no wonder there will be conflicts." β
Looking up at the sky, Ji Gao's gaze seemed to penetrate the eternal years, and said leisurely: "Everything has to start from the time of Emperor Yao, you should have heard the legend of Hou Yi shooting the sun." β
"At the time of Emperor Yao, ten days suddenly appeared in the sky, causing the earth to crack, the lake to dry up, and the world to fall into the end of the world. So Di Yao ordered Hou Yi to shoot down the nine days and save the world, this story even children know. β
Ji Gao said solemnly: "But this is not a story, but a real thing, although it is different from the legend, the so-called ten days are not ten suns, but a demon god in the chaotic world, when Emperor Yao gathered the top witches of the twelve tribes, fought fiercely with it, paid a huge sacrifice, and finally sealed him and ordered Emperor Shun, who had just become his heir, to guard it." β
"The Yu Shun clan was ordered to guard the Yu Yuan seal at that time, and they are the descendants of Emperor Shun left here. After Di Yao, Di Shun succeeded to the throne and also ordered King Yu to come to suppress the seal, and our ancestors were the descendants of King Yu at that time. β
"And the Yin and Yang Family, this sect that split from Taoism five hundred years ago, has an inextricable relationship with that ancient demon god, which is also the initial reason why we are hostile. Of course, with the passage of time and the accumulation of blood, the contradictions between us have long since deteriorated, and they are no longer the original simplicity. β
Yan Shi looked down curiously: "In other words, there is really a giant demon that can destroy the world down here?"
Ji Gao looked at him with a smile.
