Chapter 33: The Great Array of Imprisoned Heavens

"The Four Ancient Beasts?!"

I exclaimed in shock, I don't know much about the ancient sayings, but it is rumored that the four fierce beasts are the incarnation of the four legends of ancient times, the three seedlings, the donkey, and the gonggong, and the kun respectively incarnated after death into gluttony, chaos, qiqi, and 梼杌, and the three seedlings, the donkey, the gonggong, and the kun were the leaders of the four major tribes and clans in the ancient era, and it is rumored that they were surrendered because of the rebellion, but the resentment did not disappear after death, so they incarnated into the four fierce beasts.

There is a cloud in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas: The Classic of the North Mountains": "There is more jade on the top of the mountain of Hook Wu, and there is more copper under it." There is a beast, its shape is like a sheep's body and human face, its eyes are in the armpits, tiger teeth and human claws, its sound is like a baby, its name is roe deer owl, it is a cannibal. "Roe deer owl refers to gluttony. It is recorded in the "Divine Strange Scripture: The Western Wilderness Classic": "Gluttony, the name of the beast, the body is like a cow, the human face, the eyes are under the armpits, and the cannibalism." He also said: "There are people in the southwest, who are hairy, wearing pigs on their heads, who are very evil, who are good at resting, who accumulate wealth without using it, and who are good at robbing people of grain." The strong take the old and the weak, fear the group and hit the single, and the name is gluttonous. ”

There are many legends about gluttony, but the name of evil is the only constant.

There are also different opinions about chaos, "The Divine Strange Scripture and the Western Wilderness Sutra" records: "There are beasts in Kunlun West, which are like dogs, with long hair and four legs, two eyes and no ears, two ears but no hearing, abdomen but no organs, there are intestines straight but not spinning, and food passes through." People have virtue and go to contradict it, people have fierce virtue and rely on it, and the sky makes it so, and it is called chaos. The earliest saying about chaos is "chaos enlightenment", the emperor of the South China Sea is called Qian, the emperor of the North Sea is called Hu, and the emperor of the center is called Chaos.

They often went to Chaochao's place to gather, and Chaochao treated them as their own, and they discussed how to repay Chaochao's friendship, and they finally said: "Everyone has eyes, ears, nose, and mouth, which they use to see, hear, eat, and breathe, but Chaochao has nothing, so let's try to chisel the seven orifices for him." So they chiseled seven orifices for Chaos, and chiseled one in one day, and on the seventh day, when all the seven orifices were chiseled, Chaos' death.

The legend of the beast comes from the fact that it is said to be fat, round in shape, red like fire, with four wings and six legs, and although it has no facial features, it can understand song and dance, and there is also a saying that Chaos is an animal like a dog or a bear, which cannot be seen or heard by humans, and it often bites its tail and giggles; If you meet a noble person, Chaos will be violent; If he encounters a wicked person, Chaos will obey his command.

"The Eighteenth Year of Duke Wen" has a cloud: "The former Emperor Hong's family has no talent, conceals righteousness and hidden thieves, and is good at committing murder, and the world is called chaotic." ”

Poor Qi, the legend is that after the death of the Gonggong, according to legend, during the Fuxi period, there was a tribe of the Gonggong clan in China, its appearance was human-faced and snake-like, with red hair, and the temperament was very irritable, the Gonggong's had two notorious gods, one was a willow with nine heads, it was also a human-faced snake body, the whole body was blue, the temperament was cruel and greedy, and it was dedicated to killing for pleasure; The other is a long and vicious float.

The people of the Gonggong clan are good at talking, the sky is falling, but they are very evil in doing things, they are respectful on the surface, but in fact they are lawless, the leader of the Gonggong clan is called Kang Hui, who is born with a fashionable body with red hair, iron arms and tendons, more than one zhang tall, and infinite strength.

After Fuxi left, the people of China respected Nuwa, Kang Hui was therefore jealous, relying on the high terrain of his fiefdom, causing a monstrous flood to harm the Central Plains, causing the land of China to be a vast ocean, Nuwa could not bear it, and decided to lead the people of China to eradicate the Gonggong, after the death of the Gonggong, the resentment was difficult to settle, and he turned into a poor Qi.

"The Classic of Mountains and Seas, the North Classic of the Sea" records: "The poor strange shape is like a tiger, with wings, cannibalism from the beginning, and the food is draped in hair." "It's terrifying...... "Divine Sutra" cloud: "There is a beast in the northwest, its shape is like a tiger, it has wings and can fly, so it will kill people, know people's words, smell people eat straight, smell people faithful and eat their noses, hear people are evil and disobedient and kill beasts to give it, the name is poor and strange." ”

梼杌 refers to the cang, "Historical Records of the Five Emperors" said: "The Zhuan clan has no talent, can not be taught, do not know the words, the world is called the 梼杌." "This is said to be after the 颛顼氏.

Mencius Youyun: "Shunliu worked together in Youzhou, let go of the donkey in Chongshan, killed three seedlings in three dangers, and died in Yushan, four sins and the world is salty, and the punishment is unkind." If you are not benevolent, you will be sealed. "The cang, which is juxtaposed with the other three fierce beasts, is the Han Zhu.

There is also a saying that it is a kind of wild beast that is widely spread among the folk, the legend is one of the three strange beasts sealed by Emperor Xuanyuan at the beginning, and the oral teaching of the neighbors in the township is: Hanzhu has eight legs, four eyes, two mouths, and every time in the present world must devour a hundred people Fang Xiu, the original Emperor Xuanyuan finally defeated it with the assistance of the gods, sealed under the nine shadows, and could not be born forever.

As Gu Tan said, even if their true bodies are long gone, and even become a distant legend, the spirit they leave behind is enough to compete with the gods and demons.

In this array, the thoughts in the body can't play a role at all, and what is a small thing is now the simplest proof.

"Since the eyes of the array are distributed above the spirits of the four fierce beasts, but there are obviously no fierce beasts around, can't we reach them at all? Can't even see it?! ”

I thought about it for a moment and said with a frown.

When Gu Tan heard this, he said lightly: "That's your cultivation is shallow, you don't understand the doorway at all, this Prison Heaven Great Array, originally existed to protect the sixth layer, the value of this array is equivalent to all the treasures in the Treasure Palace, correspondingly, if this array is broken, then the treasures in the Treasure Hall will be available for others, but ...... The power of this array is huge, if it can't be broken, it will be trapped in it for eternity, even if the body is destroyed, the three souls and seven spirits will be devoured by the spirit of the four fierce beasts, which is a hundred times more cruel than the soul flying away! ”

Shangguan Jin trembled, and said in a trembling voice: "Then, how can you break the formation?" ”

Maybe it's an illusion, but I believe I can hear it clearly, Gu Tan let out a rare sigh and said, "Break the formation? Hum! If you can't even understand the mystery of the Prison Heaven Great Array, don't say that you break the formation, you will die, and I'm afraid you won't know how to die! ”

After a pause, Gu Tan continued: "The four gates you saw when you came in are actually the four dead gates of the Prison Heaven Great Array, no matter which door you enter, you will eventually come here, but there are some subtle differences in each gate, as long as you find that little difference, you can find a way to break the formation, I believe Yang Yuanshan will not be stupid enough not to see this...... I was a little unwilling in my heart, but I didn't expect that the last treasure of Zhenshan would still fall into the hands of Tantra......"

Gu Tan's first few sentences are easy to understand, but the last two sentences are a little strange, the last treasure of Zhenshan "Shangqing Dadong Coupon Brief Words" twelve scrolls have not been found, why Gu Tan's meaning is to say that this treasure finally fell into the hands of Tantra, Tantra of course refers to the master, but why can he think that the master will get it first?

It's really puzzling......

"Why is this happening?! Master, why did you watch the Tantric people get the last treasure after you worked so hard to get here? If you are willing to give up, then the disciples will help you take it back! ”

Shangguan Jin gritted his teeth, the joints of his hands clenched "click", his feet suddenly moved, and he walked towards Gu Tan's location step by step, this time, he didn't seem to plan to stop again.

"Division...... Brother! What kind of madness does Shangguan Jin have? How did it become so terrible in the blink of an eye! ”

The ghost baby grabbed my clothes tightly and asked in a low voice.
