Chapter 15: The Legend of Ye Gong
Ye Yu looked at the "True Dragon Formula" in his hand, and was shocked in his heart. Not because of its fantastic special material, nor because of its palpitating special coercion, but because of its strange font with many strokes.
This font is not at all the font that is common on the earth of the Great Yan period today, or it is not the font of the Great Yan period at all. It is well known that the cultural aspects of the Earth have changed almost little since it entered the Great Hyan period. In the past 10,000 years, people have been using both pictographic and ideographic functions, and even now most people believe that the ruin script has been the pinnacle of the development of human writing, and it will not change in the future. But my father kept saying that this idea was really ridiculous.
This is an ancient Chinese character that has been lost for tens of thousands of years, and it is a traditional Chinese script with a strong pictographic function. However, I am afraid that even those senior archaeologists in the government will find it difficult to understand them, after all, there are too few relics left in the Great Yan Period. And the reason why Ye Yu knows them is that he can even say that he knows them very well. It is because this kind of writing is what he must learn in every class, and it is also a lesson that every child of the Ye family must master, so it can be said that this is a text that only belongs to one family. Why should we learn such a long lost text? Every time I asked my father, he always said secretly, you will know the Tao in the future. But Ye Yu has always thought that learning them is a waste of time, because they are not of the slightest use. But now it seems that the previous learning is likely to be related to this book.
looked at Ye Yu's expression of understanding and confusion at that time. Ye Li did not fluctuate in the slightest, he likes to cultivate children's ability to think independently, thinking that it will be of great benefit to his future, and this is indeed the case.
"Let me ask you a question, do you believe that there are dragons in this world? Or has there ever been a dragon in this world? Ye Li suddenly asked.
"No, there are no dragons in this world, neither in the past nor in the present." Ye Yu said without thinking. "Dragons are hypothetical beings, a collection of several different creatures. It doesn't exist in reality, it's common sense of science! Ye Yu was very puzzled by his father's questions.
"If I told you that there really was a dragon in the world, and that you were the descendant of the dragon, would you believe it?"
"What! This, that's not true, is it? Although Ye Yu knew that his father rarely joked, this thing still sounded too unbelievable.
"It's true." Ye Li said with a solemn face: "This box can only be opened by people with true dragon blood. And the "True Dragon Recipe" in your hand is also made of dragon scales. ”
"Dragons, dragon scales!" Ye Yu held the book in his hand with an incredulous expression. He never thought that there really were dragons in the world, and he actually touched a piece of dragon scales.
Although the people of this era do not believe that there really is a dragon in the world, or even once existed. But the worship of the dragon is still undiminished, just as the worship of the Illuminati is to the Emperor of Heaven. They have all risen to the divine heights.
At this time, Ye Li spoke again: "Legend has it that our Ye clan is the descendants of the true dragon. But after all, it's been too long, and many things are already very vague. But you've always heard the story of Ye Gong Haolong! ”
"Hmm" Ye Yu nodded, "Ye Gong is a Good Dragon" is one of the few fables that has been circulated into the Great Yan Era. Now it is almost a household name in literature.
"Actually, Ye Gong is the ancestor of our Ye family. He was originally a true dragon, and he was the true dragon of the royal family with the most noble bloodline. ”
"What!" Ye Yu was shocked, he didn't expect that the legendary man who loved to draw dragons, but was scared to death by the real dragon, turned out to be a real dragon himself, and he was also his ancestor. So he really is the descendant of the dragon. It's incredible.
"But why does he want to live with humans?" Ye Yu wondered. It is always said in the book that dragons are a noble race that looks down on any other living creature but themselves, including humans.
"Legend has it that at that time, the True Dragon Clan attached great importance to bloodlines. In order to prevent the outflow of blood, they only allowed intermarriage within the clan. But Ye Gong, the prince of the dragon clan at that time, fell in love with a human woman because of an accident. It is said that most of the true dragons eat color-. ”
"What do you mean by eating color? Is it one of their foods? ”
"Well, this, food color is very lustful, people used to like to talk about it, but now it seems that they don't need it." ,
"Oh" Ye Yu sweated profusely, it turns out that the dragon is very! What a detriment to their glorious image!
"But our ancestor Ye Gong is indeed a good dragon who is affectionate and trustworthy. In order to be with the woman he loved, he even did not hesitate to break with his family, left Dragon Island, and finally turned into a human form, changed his name to Ye Gong, and lived in seclusion in the world. ”
"Wow, what a romantic fairy tale!" For the sake of the beautiful princess, the prince did not hesitate to give up the throne, and then a lover finally became a family. Although the plot is a bit vulgar, the image of Ye Laozu is not so bad in Ye Yu's heart.
"Then why would someone else make up a story about Ye Gong Haolong?" Ye Laozu's glorious image has been tarnished for tens of thousands of years. One of them is a real dragon, how can he be afraid of dragons, he is scared by getting up in the middle of the night and looking in the mirror.
"Legend has it that the true dragons have a habit of taking dragon form every year on the day of the tides to resist the power of the tides. It's as if the wolf clan is going to transform on a full moon night now, and their behavior is completely uncontrolled by their own consciousness. The current wolves protest every year, demanding that the government provide them with legal and fair treatment, but no one pays attention to them every year, in large part because the wolves have not yet found a way to overcome their moonlit madness. If you find it, with the strength of the wolf clan, maybe you can even be like the Ye clan and join the eight major families of the United Front Council? As he spoke, Ye Li couldn't help but talk about today's real time, this was his old problem.
"Father, you're off topic." Ye Yu protested.
"Excuse me, but I wanted you to know more about real-time. Where did you just go? Ao, I remembered that on every tidal day, Ye Yu always quietly and alone came to the wilderness to transform to avoid scaring his family. But one day, the tide suddenly advanced, and Ye Gong didn't have time to rush to the wilderness, so he turned into a real dragon. And Ye Pingshi loves to paint, especially the dragon, which is extremely realistic, and he is quite famous for this. Now people see that a real dragon suddenly appeared in the Ye family, thinking that Ye Gong drew the dragon and attracted the real dragon. They all worshipped devoutly, and the Ye family also became famous because of the appearance of dragon traces. Later, when the tide ended, Ye Gong regained his human body. Because every time the dragon resists the power of the tide, it will enter a period of weakness. So when people came in and saw Ye Gong fainting to death on the ground, they thought they were stunned by the real dragon, so they made a joke about "Ye Gong is a good dragon". ”
"I see! Did Ye Gong return to the Dragon Clan later? ”
"I went back, it seems that not long after this incident, the dragon clan encountered some major change in life and death, and Ye Gong left. After this departure, he never came back. Even the entire True Dragon Clan seemed to have suddenly disappeared. In the tens of thousands of years that followed, until now, there have been no traces of dragons on the earth. ”
"Something must have happened to the dragons!" Ye Yu speculated.
Ye Li also nodded, and said again: "What happened specifically, it's difficult to figure out now." However, the sudden disappearance of the dragon clan is a great boon to our Ye family. ”
"For what?" Ye Yu asked puzzled.
"When Ye Gong was here, the Dragon Clan was afraid of his royal status and did not dare to touch the Ye family. And the Dragon Emperor, the Dragon Queen, who dotes on him, may also think that Ye Gong is just playful for a while, and he will go back when he has had enough. After all, compared to dragons, the lifespan of humans is very insignificant. As soon as that woman died, Ye Gong returned to the Dragon Clan, and they slaughtered the Ye Clan again, which could still ensure the purity of the Dragon Clan's bloodline. It's just a pity that the dragon is not as good as the sky! Ye Li couldn't help but sigh.
Hearing this, Ye Yu couldn't help but take a breath, if the legend was true, then if the dragon clan hadn't suddenly disappeared back then, maybe there would be no Ye family that was once brilliant, and there would be no Ye family that is now broken, let alone himself.
What kind of logic is this! Ye Yu rubbed his head and stopped his cranky thoughts.
