I was planning to leave, but the strange appearance of the corpse stopped me. Looking back at the old oil man, signaling him to be calm, the old oil man nodded indiscriminately, his face was always very unstable, he was a tomb robber, and he saw a lot of corpses, but if this kind of thing happened to a familiar and close person, he couldn't accept it.

"Pillar, I'm here to take you home, you live in peace, you live in peace" The old oil man took a breath, adjusted his mood, and then tentatively moved closer to the corpse while chattering: "If you have anything on your mind, I will do it for you, the old lady of your family, I will feed you, Zhuzi"

Just as the old oil man approached the corpse step by step, the space that had been trembling slightly suddenly increased the amplitude of the shaking, and it kept shaking gently up and down, left and right, as if it would collapse at any time. I was not far away, but I could hear the water in the well flowing very fast, and the water splashed out in strings, and the things at the bottom of the well seemed to be a little overwhelmed, and I had to break free with all my might.

I was shocked, since I came here, I had always kept in mind the words of the old pedant, and I had not really turned my mind around, when the water in the well turned up, and a faint red light rushed out of the well, and circled around it quickly, and drilled through the top of the corpse on the ground.

The corpse that had rotted and began to swell seemed to come to life suddenly, sat up straight from the ground, turned over and stood up straight, the yellow and green corpse water flowed down the body, trembling slightly, and the two pieces of rotten flesh falling on the face fell to the ground. The old oilman could no longer bear this abnormal change, and sat down on the ground and cried.

But I was very clear in my heart, and the moment the faint red light appeared from the well, I caught it, and it was it that burrowed into the corpse's body that caused such a change. What is that red light? Is it from that throbbing heart at the bottom of the well? I didn't dodge, I was on guard in place, confronting the standing corpse.

The face of the corpse is already swollen and undepresentable, and the process of decay is like this, especially in a damp place, the corpse swells a lot. The corpse's facial features were completely deformed, and its swollen eyelids covered its eyeballs, but as it stood up, its eyelids rolled vigorously, and through the gap, a dark gaze could be seen.

"See you again" The corpse's mouth did not open, but a gloomy voice emanated from some part of the body, the voice was hoarse and old, but I heard it clearly.

My heart froze for a moment, the change in the corpse must have come from that red light, in other words, it was the red light at the bottom of the well that was speaking at this moment. Meet again, what does that mean? Does that mean it has known me in the past?

"Who are you? Don't you dare to show your real body? ”

"Can you still live? Hahaha" The tone and laughter of the corpse became more and more gloomy, and there was indescribable hatred in the laughter: "Dayu, meet again, meet again"

One sentence was like a thunderbolt, and my whole body shook with the shock in my heart. Dayu! Dayu! In the whole space, except for me, it is the old oilman, this title is definitely not said to the old oilman, so, the red light attached to the corpse, is calling me?

Dayu, in the hearts of the people and descendants of the seven gates of the river, is a god-like existence, and no one can be blasphemed. The corpse's words shook my heart, and I seemed to understand something in a trance. In my past life, in this life, there are so many memories, so many puzzles, I can't recall this life.

Past life, what is it? Is it King Yu who did not enter the house because of the water control? I can't believe it, who am I? Who is King Yu? It's hard for me to associate them together.

"Who are you?"

"Dayu, can't you remember me?" The corpse's mouth grinned down to the base of its ears, and the exaggerated amplitude and full of teeth made the scalp look numb.

As soon as he finished saying this, a splash of water tumbling out of the well condensed above his head into two fish hugging each other, like a large net, covering the corpse in the middle at once. The water splashed around the body of the corpse, which was already rotten and unpresentable, washed by the water layer by layer, and the flesh flew sideways. The voice echoed in the space, looking painful and resentful, but the splash was soft but unbreakable, and gradually, from the corpse separated from the flesh and bones, a red light that was barely visible to the naked eye swooped out, and the red light was wrapped in the splash and fell back into the well.

I don't know if it's my delusion, I just feel that the true bodies of the six old ancestors by the well moved invisibly, and took another step towards the well, and the red light fluttered in the water, but it was only for a short moment, and there was no sound, leaving only the sound floating in the space.

"Let's go!" The old oil man trembled, as soon as the red light left the corpse, the corpse fell to the ground, and there was no movement, after this toss, more than half of the skin and flesh on the outside of the corpse's body were lost, and even the bones were about to fall apart, and the smell made people dare not approach. The old oil man was bold, and there was really no accident when he saw that there was really no accident, took out a bag, put the bones that were about to fall apart into it, and carried it on his back and left.

My mind was full of questions, the words of the corpse just now were probably the most incredible words I had ever heard in my life, but it was pressed back to the bottom of the well, and I didn't have a chance to ask again. My heart was a little confused, as soon as the old oil man moved, I couldn't help but follow, and the two of them squeezed out of the crack in the door one after the other, re-entered the water, and soon surfaced.

The time of going down to the river is not very long, when I came out of the water, there was still a starlight overhead, but the donkey that led us into the water and the old man who led the donkey were gone, and there was a figure standing quietly on the river beach. When I saw him, I had a thought: this person is very unusual, and he may know many things.

I climbed up the river bank with Lao Youzi wet, and Lao Fuba came to ask me, and he was relieved to see that my hair was undamaged. I broke them all apart and walked over to the old pedant.

"Seen it?" The tone of the old pedant was still very light.

"I've read it, there are a few words, can you ask?"

"Come on, take a few steps over there." The old pedant, probably not wanting anyone else to hear our conversation, walked a hundred and ten meters out of the riverbank, then stopped, bent his legs, and sat cross-legged on the sand. I sat across from him, I had something to ask, but I didn't know how to speak.

I thought for a moment, at this moment, there was nothing more important than the words of the corpse, and it would have been abrupt to ask such a question, but my intuition told me that the old pedant should know, he must know. I hesitated, observed his expression, asked about things, or did I want to take it step by step, I first asked: "What is pressed in that well, do you know right?" ”

"I'll tell you a story." The old scholar also thought about it, did not answer my question directly, raised his eyes to look at the starry sky above his head, and said: "A long time ago, there was a person, born strange, brave and mighty, he led his own people, so that the tribe prospered, and later, the number of tribes increased, the territory was limited, he began to conquer the east and west, wanting to lay down a vast territory. This man seems to have been born to fight, fought for many years, and never met an opponent. However, when he led his troops north, he met his fateful enemy. ”

The old pedant paused, I listened to his story, and I was thinking about other things, and I was a little distracted, and the old pedant coughed, as if to remind me, and I quickly retracted my mind and continued listening.

The story told by the old pedant may have really happened for a long time, too old to be traced, when there was no kingdom yet and the land was just a barren land, and a group of ancient people gathered together, each with their own tribe, fighting each other for the best place to survive. The man who was good at fighting met a fierce enemy in the north, and the two sides fought several battles, each with victory and defeat.

"That person was born in the south, not orthodox in the interior of the Central Plains, and has always been regarded as a foreign race from ancient times to the present." The old pedant said, "Do you know who he is?" ”

I don't know how to read, I don't know much about these ancient rumors, and when the old pedant said this, I vaguely remembered that I had heard people mention it in the past, but I couldn't recall it so clearly at once, so I shook my head and waited for his answer.

"That person, it's called Chiyou." The old pedant said word by word: "The fateful rival he met is called the Yellow Emperor." ”

One sentence suddenly dissipated the mystery, the story told by the old pedant took place in the period of the Three Emperors in ancient times, Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor fought against Chiyou, killed him, and the barbarians withered and fled in all directions. From that time on, the Yellow Emperor's tribe was located in the Central Plains and became the co-rulers of the world. It's been a history that has been told back and forth for thousands of years, and I don't know much about it, but I always know something.

According to legend, when the Yellow Emperor fought Chiyou, he did not win in one go. Chiyou is rumored to be good at making metal weapons, powerful and invincible, and later known as the god of war. The two tribes fought for a long time, and in the end, it was with the help of the Nine Heavens Xuannu that the Yellow Emperor defeated Chiyou, known as Chinese orthodoxy.

The story is told clearly, but why did the old pedant suddenly mention an ancient legend that almost Chinese would know at this time?

"Legends, legends, people say that Chiyou fought Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, died after defeat, and the Jiuli under his command declined, and three seedlings were separated from Jiuli, but in fact, this is not the case." The old scholar shook his head and said: "Everyone knows that Xuannu helped the Yellow Emperor and defeated Chiyou, but no one knows that she also helped Chiyou, Chiyou, and did not die." ”
