Chapter 40, Tiandu Mountain
"So, these barbarians have all gone to Tiandu Mountain?"
"Where will the Zhou Tianwu Festival take place?"
On the roof of the back wing of Jufu Building, Xiao Sheng looked at the crowd of people in the market.
Watching those people of the Great Wilderness who were dressed in gorgeous robes blowing gongs and drums, singing and dancing.
Heading towards the river outside the bazaar, there was a slight look of surprise in his eyes.
"Brother Xiao doesn't seem to know!"
Li Rui looked at Xiao Sheng with a warm smile on his face.
"In this great wilderness, there are eleven mountains, all of which are named after the word Tiandu. ”
"It is the land of all the tribes of the Great Wilderness, and most of the time, the Zhou Tianwu Sacrifice will be carried out on these peaks. ”
"Eleven Tiandu Peaks?"
When Xiao Sheng heard this, his face showed a little doubt.
"I've heard this rumor. ”
Ji Han on the side opened his mouth, and said with a little confusion in his eyes:
"But the legends I've heard aren't eleven, they're twelve!"
"Twelve?"
This time, even Li Rui showed a look of suspicion, the inheritance of the Great Wilderness Human Race was too long, and even far beyond the imagination of many big forces.
Even in the inheritance of Li Rui and others, the literature about the Great Wilderness is the oldest and fragmented and unique book, and it is inevitable that there will be some discrepancies.
"Humph!"
"It doesn't matter if it's eleven or twelve, the master will definitely trample that bastard boy under his feet in a while. ”
"Just to solve the hatred in my heart!"
With a cold snort, Xiao Sheng looked at the gradually thinning crowd with infinite anger in his eyes.
According to the traditional rules of the Zhou Tianwu Festival, after the festival opens, there will be a grand competition.
People from tens of thousands of village groups in the Great Wilderness will be divided into different groups according to their age to compete in a competition.
The winner of the competition will have the opportunity to participate in the final and most important festival, which represents the supreme honor in the wilderness.
You may even get the supreme opportunity to soar to the sky and become a master.
It is said that the reason why Li Baichuan was able to dominate his peers back then was that he got some kind of opportunity in the festival.
This is also the purpose of these great forces outside the Great Wilderness to send disciples here this time.
After all, after Li Baichuan left the Great Wilderness, there was a lot of movement in the outside world.
"They're about to go away, let's go and have a round with the master!"
Seeing this, Li Rui shook his head slightly and spoke.
"It's just right, Master, they should have been impatient to wait. ”
Ji Han also spoke.
"Let's go!"
Xiao Sheng nodded when he heard this, took the lead and got off the roof, came to the street, and chased in the direction of the jubilant crowd.
Seeing this, Li Rui and the others hurriedly followed......
"As rumored, it's Tiandu Mountain?"
Outside the bazaar, someone whispered in the wilderness, looking at the crowd of people who were moving quickly towards a mountain in the distance.
"For generations, people have secretly gone to Tiandu Mountain to explore, but they have never found anything unusual. ”
"Could it be that there is no cave there?"
On a golden chariot, an old man looked at the crowd advancing in the wilderness, his eyes shining.
"This disciple doesn't know either. ”
In front of him, Xiong Wei looked at the old man with a respectful expression.
"The disciple has been brought to the sect by the master to cultivate since he was a child, and he has never participated in the affairs of the clan. ”
"However, I happened to hear Lord Songsu say that Tiandu Mountain is a forbidden place for the Great Wilderness Terrans, and it is not allowed to be approached except when the Zhou Tianwu Festival is held. ”
"Other times, I'm afraid that accidents will easily happen. ”
"Oh, and that happens?"
The old man showed a look of surprise in his eyes, turned his head to look at Xiong Wei, muttered for a moment, and then said:
"Could it be that there is really something strange about this Tiandu Mountain?"
"Forget it, even if there's anything weird, you'll know about it soon. ”
"Wei'er, you said that your father planned to arrange for us to enter with the sacrificial team of Bear Village, right?"
At this time, the middle-aged man who had been silent on the side spoke and looked at Xiong Wei.
"Master Qiqi, my father sent his disciples here to receive several uncles and brothers. ”
"Then why don't you lead the way?"
"Yes!"
After that, under the reflection of the morning light, the golden chariot crossed the wilderness like a moon wheel across the sky, chasing away towards the crowd in the distance.
This time, as if triggering some chain reaction, in the wilderness near Bear Village, all kinds of lights rushed to the sky.
Those are all representatives of various forces outside the Great Wilderness.
Now that Bear Village has begun, the other villages are naturally not far behind.
Moreover, the Great Wilderness Terran has been closed for too long, and for the clansmen of the outside world, those inheritance ancient books are like scratching their boots and mentioning only a few words.
The secrets of the Great Wilderness Terran have long been like fishy, making all parties rush to it.
"Girl, it's time for us to hit the road!"
In the bazaar, Gu Hongzi looked up at the sky, and there was a faint smile on his face.
In the small courtyard below, the girl who had been lowering her head to comb the mane of the horse heard this, and her hands trembled a little imperceptibly......
"Ayu, have you heard of Tiandu Mountain?"
On the way, a group of people quickly followed the team in silence, except for the sound of drums and horns.
After walking out of the bazaar, most of the girls of all ethnic groups who were singing and dancing also stopped.
Er Meng, who had been holding the dark clouds and was silent, suddenly opened his mouth and looked at Mingyu.
"Tiandu Mountain, aren't we just going there?"
"The Zhou Tianwu Festival is going to be held in Tiandu Mountain, I heard my grandfather say this. ”
When Mingyu heard this, there was a look of surprise in his eyes, and inadvertently, his eyes were aimed at Li Meng, who was walking not far ahead.
As if sensing Mingyu's gaze, Li Meng turned around and glanced at everyone, with a kind smile on his face.
"Why don't we go?"
As if he wanted to speak, Er Meng looked at Mingyu, and then at Qiangzi and the others.
"Hahahaha. ”
Hearing this, Qiangzi chuckled, turned his head to look at Er Meng and said:
"You can't be scared, are you?"
"When you heard that there might be a collision with other villages at the festival, you're scared?"
"Hadron!"
Mingyu frowned slightly, called out to Qiangzi, and then looked at Er Meng, and laughed loudly.
"Don't be afraid, I promised my grandfather that I will definitely bring everyone back to Li Village safely!"
"But ......"
Hearing this, Ermeng spoke again.
"What's so good?"
"I said, why have you become so bold lately?"
The tiger girl, who had been listening to the speeches of several people, interrupted Ermeng.
"With Ayu here, we must be fine, adults will not interfere in our battles, you can rest assured!"
The second monkey also spoke, with a look of pride on his face, obviously quite confident in Mingyu's strength.
"It's okay, Ermeng, trust me!"
Seeing this, Mingyu smiled and reached out to pat Er Meng's shoulder.
There was a faint haze in his heart, and it was obvious that Er Meng knew what had happened from Li Meng, but he didn't dare to tell everyone.
For a while, the team fell into silence again, and the crowd was like a black tide, in the early morning wilderness, flocking to the towering Tiandu Mountain......
Tiandu Mountain, also known as Tianjiang Mountain.
Its origins are as long as all the known histories of the Great Wilderness Terrans.
It is said that when the ancestors of the Great Wilderness Human Race first came to this land, the land was still an ancient and barbaric scene.
Towering mountains can be seen everywhere, and huge beasts are rampant everywhere, fighting and slaughtering wantonly.
At that time, the leader of all the fierce beasts was a divine beast Celestial Dragon, which was powerful, brutal by nature, and fierce and murderous.
All the fierce beasts, including the divine beasts, are afraid of it, it is the king of the Eastern Wilderness, controlling the entire Eastern Wilderness, and also ruling endless fierce beasts under his command, known as the "Demon Dragon King".
It governs the Eastern Wilderness by force, so the ferocity of the beasts in the Eastern Wilderness is even more brutal than in other places.
All living beings live in a battle day and night, the environment of the great wilderness is difficult, and the laws of survival are barbaric.
If you don't want to fight, you have to be prepared to be a good meal in other people's mouths.
At that time, the human race who had just come here was relatively weak, so naturally it quickly became the target of fierce beasts.
It was a rather cruel history, a history of blood and tears for the Great Wilderness Terrans.
Before adapting to the new environment, he suffered a huge blow, almost exterminating the entire Great Wilderness Human Race.
But fortunately, they survived in the end, and the Terrans' ability to adapt to the environment has worked wonders.
In the battle against the fierce beasts in the Great Wilderness day and night, twelve powerful warriors appeared in the Great Wilderness Terran.
It is a supreme powerhouse with great strength, that is, the guardian of the Great Wilderness Human Race in later legends.
These twelve people led the Great Wilderness Terran to declare war on the Demon Dragon King, and finally defeated it.
Then the two sides reached a settlement, and the Terrans recognized the Demon Dragon King's dominance over the Great Wilderness, and the Demon Dragon King also agreed to give some relatively barren places to the Terrans to settle down.
That battle laid the foundation for the survival of the Terrans in the Great Wilderness in the Eastern Wilderness, and since then the Terrans have gained a firm foothold in the Great Wilderness.
The twelve warriors are also praised by the world, respected as the "Twelve Heavenly Generals", and are worshiped by all the Great Wilderness people.
Some people made statues of the images of the twelve warriors and placed them on the twelve high mountains in various parts of the Great Wilderness to worship, and gradually it became the belief of the entire Great Wilderness Human Race.
The corresponding worship activities gradually evolved into the predecessor of the "Zhou Tianwu Festival" in later generations.
At this time, looking at Tiandu Mountain getting closer and closer in the distance, Mingyu couldn't help but think of some legends about Tiandu Mountain.
Those legends were told to him by Li Baichuan very early, and I still remember that Mingyu asked at that time, why is there only eleven in the Great Wilderness of the twelve Tiandu Mountains, and where did one go?
Whenever this happens, Li Baichuan always laughs and doesn't say anything, just telling Mingyu that he will know when the time comes.
Grandpa, I will not let you down, I will definitely bring everyone back to Li Village safely!
In the blink of an eye, Mingyu suddenly remembered the old man, that resolute and firm back.
"Ouch, it's finally here!"
An exclamation came from the side, waking up Mingyu, who was immersed in memories.
Raising his head and looking into the distance, the huge mountain that had been separated not long ago had now appeared in front of him......
