"You understand?"

Suddenly, Anya asked.

"Understood. ”

Xing Tian sighed lightly, turned his head and glanced at Anya a little strangely, and the shocked look on his face still did not fade for a long time.

After a long time, Xing Tiancai finally pointed to the engraving he saw, and asked with some difficulty: "According to the ...... recorded on this engraving You merfolk were banished to the Supreme Battlefield by the Terrans!?"

As soon as these words came out, Xingtian seemed to drain all his strength!

When he was in the forbidden area of life, Bai Wuchang, the son of the White Emperor, once told him - he suspected that in the last years of the ancient martial arts civilization era, it was the human race that split the nine heavens and ten earths, banished all races to the border wasteland, and finally monopolized the most fertile central land of the nine heavens and ten days, which is now the earth!

According to some of the information that Xing Tian himself had explored, Xing Tian knew that Bai Wuchang's speculation was 80% correct!

Now after seeing the mural of this mermaid clan, Xingtian finally determined that it may be that except for the Holy Maiden clan and other races that have terrible taboo-level existences, the human race has indeed expelled all races after its rise!

After all, if it weren't for ethnic hatred, what race would want to record this qiē in the form of a mural?

Unless it's a great hatred, it will never be recorded like this!

After all, this is not a glorious thing, and who wants to sue their descendants in this way - your ancestors can't?

To put this kind of bitter shame out in such a form, to put it bluntly, is to pass on the hatred forever, even if it is poked in the backbone by future generations, it is necessary to directly tell future generations who their enemies are!

"Moreover, it was the Emperor's army that expelled you personally?"

Xingtian asked again.

"Yes. ”

Anya nodded, and then glanced at Xingtian a little strangely: "But how do you know?"

Xing Tian stared at the mural for a long time, but with a wry smile on his face.

The mural he was looking at was actually one of the hallway murals.

But it records the most humiliating scene of the mermaid clan.

On the mural, countless men, women, and children with the appearance of the mermaid and the black-scaled shark are chained by iron chains and shackles, and are driven into the distance by a large group of black-clothed and black-armored Terran soldiers like cattle and sheep.

There is no color or scenery in the distance on the painting, just a large black area to depict it, and on the whole, it gives people the feeling that the men, women and children of the mermaid and the black-scaled mermaid are walking step by step towards eternal and endless darkness!

That's how it feels!

The mermaid clan is worthy of being an art-loving race, and the person who painted this oil painting must be a master, just a painting, which depicts the despair of the fish-man and the black-scaled shark clan at that time and the water and cold, but whoever sees this oil painting, no one is moved!

For those soldiers in black clothes and black armor, Xingtian is too familiar!

At the beginning, when he opened the Eight Formations of the Human Emperor, he once cast a phantom, and at that time, he had witnessed the Heavenly Power of the Eight Heavenly Generals!

Later, when he was taking the Dragon Soul Grass, he was dragged into the former battlefield by the Dragon Emperor's brother, and at that time, he witnessed the killing of the Dragon Clan by the Eight Heavenly Generals!

The eight heavenly generals I saw twice were all dressed in black and armor, almost exactly the same as the Terran soldiers in this oil painting!

At this point, if the Xingtian Medicine Master could no longer guess whose general the soldiers who expelled the mermaid clan were, then he could really die!

Xing Tian pointed to a few lines of small characters on the oil painting, and after a moment of silence, he asked, "I don't know these words, do you know what they mean?"

"That's the ancient text of our merfolk. ”

A hint of loneliness flashed in Anya's eyes, and she said softly: "It's a pity that we can only use the language of the human race now. ”

Xing Tian was silent, quietly looking at the other party, waiting for the following.

"It's because of that war. ”

Anya sighed lightly: "This is the ancient royal secret text of the mermaid clan, and only the royal clan understands this kind of writing."

According to the ancient rules of the merfolk, this kind of writing must be taught to the people by the royal family, and in fact we used to do the same.

Unfortunately, since that war, this family rule has changed.

For the Terrans have compelled all of us royal families to swear a blood oath - that future generations will never be able to teach such royal secrets to their people!

To put it bluntly, they don't want our people to learn the culture of the mermaid tribe, because all the classics of the mermaid tribe are written in this kind of royal secret script, because the secret text is very special, and the meaning can only be understood but not spoken, so it cannot be translated at all.

In addition, the Terrans even brought their classics, most of which were some history, values and the like, and there was a saying that they had to learn these classics in order to leave the place. ”

Xing Tian sighed and didn't say anything.

This...... To put it bluntly, it's a cultural invasion!

It is more terrible than the baptism of blood and fire such as swords, guns, swords, halberds, etc.!

Because, a truly powerful race is not afraid of blood and fire, and the bright saber is terrible, but it can never break the backbone of a powerful race!

But cultural invasion, that is able to defeat a qiē of the existence zài!

To give a very simple example, in the feudal era of Huaguo, a civilized era, the farming people and the nomads clashed for more than 2,000 years, and the nomads went south countless times, and finally conquered the Central Plains twice with a bright saber and became the master of the country, which was the absolute unification of force!

And as a result? Did they win? Did they emerge victorious with their conquest?

No!!!

In fact, they lost because, they were assimilated.

The civilization created by the agrarian people of China is too great and too inclusive, and it can assimilate any nation that enters itself!

Those nomads who jumped horses and swords into the hinterland of the Central Plains are a good example, after entering the customs left the horses on which they depended for survival, learned the poetry, books, rituals and music of the Han family, and also got used to the life customs in the pass, and finally in addition to their own people, there is almost no difference from the farming people in the Huaguo Pass!

This is standard cultural aggression, an invisible knife that kills invisibly!

What Xing Tian didn't expect was that as early as the primeval years, the Human Emperor had already begun a cultural invasion of the expelled races of the mermaid race!

Abandon the secret language of the royal family, abolish the mermaid classics, speak the language of the human race, and learn the culture of the human race, otherwise you will never see the light of day, and you can't leave the open and go from place to place.

What is this set of requirements, not a typical cultural invasion?

To put it bluntly, the human emperor wants to assimilate the mermaid race, not my race, its heart must be different, only by completely assimilating into the human race, so that he can enter the central land of the nine heavens and ten earths, otherwise he will die of old age here!

Xing Tian looked complicated, stared at the murals on the wall, and asked after a long time, "So, how did you do it?"

"What do you think?"

In the corridor where the candles were flickering, Anya turned her head and looked at Xingtian quietly, her fair skin and smooth long hair were rippling with a soft halo, as if she was smiling, but she smiled a little coldly: "All the royal family has made a blood oath, and no one can teach the royal secret text, otherwise it will lead to misfortune and death, how dare we disobey?"

But even then, we won't learn the culture of the Terrans!

So, we burned all the texts sent by the Terrans, and only learned the language of the Terrans as a necessity for daily communication, and that's enough!"

"It is better to be a group of beasts who do not understand what culture is forever, than to accept the assimilation of the enemy!"

“......”

It's fucking ruthless!

Xing Tian gasped and felt a little dry.

The civilization of one's own race can no longer be passed on because of the blood oath, so there is only one result of rejecting the culture of the human race - a civilization fault!

The mermaid tribe who loves literature and art has completely turned into a group of beasts because of hatred!

Xing Tian shook his head, pointed to the group of mermaid clan secret inscriptions on the mural and asked, "What does this mean?"

"You don't want to know. ”

"I insist!"

"Good!"

Anya's eyes were deep, staring at the secret inscription on the mural, and slowly spit out sixteen words in her mouth: "The night is bright, and the darkness is the worst;

As a result, Xingtian fell into silence for a long time.

Merfolk ...... After all, I still refuse to give up hatred!

At the end of the night, it is darkest, and the hurricane is over, but the grass remains.

These sixteen characters are actually the ancestors of the mermaid clan warning future generations to be patient!

They think that the rule of the Terrans is like the darkness at the end of the night, the fierceness of the hurricane, and although it is extremely fast, it is short-lived after all!

Therefore, they warned future generations to protect themselves wisely and learn to forbear......

The end of forbearance is the outburst, and the longer the forbearance, the stronger the outburst!

Xing Tian stood alone in the empty corridor, silent for a long time.

He actually doesn't belong to any race, this is very clear to Xingtian, but the people he loves are basically people of the human race, so he has always felt that he should also belong to the human race, in fact, since he entered the Supreme Battlefield, he has always been proud of the human race as a human race!

So, at this moment, Xingtian suddenly began to worry a little about the race he recognized.

The vast number of beings living on the earth now probably don't know that behind them, there is such a large number of huge races that are thinking day and night about restoration, thinking about returning to the central land for revenge!

What I saw was only a mermaid race, and I couldn't guess how many other races were thinking about it!

When this terrible torrent erupts, the Terrans ...... Can it really withstand it?

Can those unfallen cities that guard the frontier really be able to withstand it?

Xing Tian didn't know, all his worries turned into a gentle sigh, in the world of great disputes, he couldn't even control his own fate, so he could only go with the flow, what was the use of thinking about it so much?

After seeing this mural, Xingtian actually already knew why Anya said that she was a sinner through the ages.

The Terrans are the mortal enemies of their merfolk clans!!

Anya used a person from the human race as the handsome, and helped them with the mermaid clan Kuang Fu clan, and said that it was an act of betraying the ancestors, what is this not a sinner through the ages?

I'm afraid that the merfolk may not accept it all.

"Yes, many, and on the second day after I had brought you to the clan and set up a retreat, hundreds of old clansmen cried outside the palace and demanded that I kill you. ”

Sure enough, Anya's answer confirmed Xingtian's thoughts.

Xing Tian looked at the woman with interest: "So, what did you do?"

"Killed. ”

Anya said two words lightly, her face was expressionless, as if she was saying something insignificant, and said lightly: "I hate it when people tell me about dignity or something, people can't live anymore, what's the use of wanting dignity?"

Moreover, are the merfolk now qualified to talk about dignity?

So I dragged the corpses of those old clansmen to the bazaar of the royal city, and let the sad clansmen see what happened to those who were weak and wanted dignity.

In the end, all opposition was gone. ”

Anya's tone was very cold, and the indifference made Xingtian's heart cold, as if there was no trace of temperature in the long tunnel.

"Living, in fact, is the most wonderful thing in the world, as long as you save in this world for a day, you should always look forward, if you are entangled in hatred and can't extricate yourself, in the end the mermaid clan can't escape extinction. ”

Anya spread her hands and seemed to be smiling bitterly: "Moreover, there are too many enemies of the mermaid clan.

Eighty percent of the creatures in the entire Supreme Battlefield are the descendants of the powerhouses who participated in the battle to break the forbidden area of life in the primeval years, only the mermaid clan, and only the mermaid clan was banished here by the human race.

We've been bullied since we came, and we're bullied all the time, and if we really want to talk about enemies, those who bullied us are no more cute than the Terrans!

Are we all going to get revenge?

Do you want to stick to hatred and reckless military force, and finally make the whole world enemy?

No, that's not the meaning of the mermaid clan's existence, we save it in order to become stronger, to live a better life, not to send one hot-blooded boy after another to the battlefield, let them pay for the incompetence of their ancestors, and finally die on the battlefield!

I've really seen too much of the deaths......

I'm tired......"

After speaking, Anya turned around and left, and in the dim corridor, her back was very long.

Xing Tian stared at the woman's back for a long time, and his mind was complicated.

It's easy to be vigorous, but it's hard to make a living.

Perhaps, this woman is great......

......
