Thunderfall Volume Chapter 43: Before the Legend

As soon as he said the "Three Guards of Imperial Power", Qiyun was shocked, and asked tremblingly, "Dragon...... Grandpa, Mr. Long, you ...... How do you ...... Could it be that the Long family and the three guards of the imperial power originally knew each other?" Seeing the stunned expression of Cho Yun, Old Lady Long couldn't help laughing: "Naturally, I know each other, my Long family and the Imperial Power Sanwei know each other, but it's just because of the iron box you beheaded the family." The three guards of imperial power have always protected the iron box of imperial power of your family, but my Long family has always guarded the method of opening the iron box - our common goal is to protect your bloodline and not cut off!"

Mrs. Long's words seemed to have revealed a lot of secrets, and the slightly changing expression on Cho Yu's face had proved that Cho Yu probably knew much more than his father Cho Yun.

"But, what iron box, what iron box of imperial power...... I haven't seen it before......" Hearing what Master Long said, Cho Yun was even more panicked, and he was already a little at a loss. However, Master Long interrupted the words of the slashing cloud, and said: "Naturally, you haven't seen it, and the slashing family that can see the iron box is not you slashing the cloud, but ......."

Speaking of this, Master Long's gaze looked at Chopping Jade, who had been silent.

Chopping Cloud glared at Master Long in astonishment, with an incredulous expression.

Chopping Yu knew from the first time he saw Master Long that there was no secret that he could hide from this mysterious old man, so he said: "The three guards of the imperial power have already given me the iron box. ”

"But you should have given him to someone else. Master Long stared at the jade with a smile, and his eyes seemed to be able to see through everything in the world. Whether it is dark or secret, in the eyes of Master Long, there is nothing to hide.

"Yes, I gave it to ......" Chopping Yu was about to answer truthfully, but Master Long stopped him.

"It doesn't matter who you give it to, I'm sure you know why you give it to someone else. Mrs. Long replied, "Young man, you are a person chosen by history, and the burden on your shoulders is not light. ”

"However, the iron box ......" Chopyun was still a little worried, "Since it is so important to my family, I am not afraid of ......"

"I know what you're worried about!" said Master Long after taking a sip of tea, "If you knew the history of this iron box, you wouldn't be worried about giving it away......"

Chopping Cloud was shocked again: "Why?"

Master Long said with a smile: "Because no matter how far away the iron box is from your family, it will eventually return to the hands of your family under the guidance of an inexplicable force." ”

As soon as these words came out, Chopping Cloud and Chopping Jade were two completely different reactions. Chop Yun has a lot of trust in this old lady Long, and Mrs. Long's words eased Chop Yun's nervous expression, and he looked at Mr. Long with an expectant look, hoping that he could tell him more, but Cho Yu was indifferent to Mr. Long's words, and it seemed that no matter what Mr. Long said, he was not interested.

Hearing that Master Long said that the responsibility of history lies with his son, he felt very relieved, after all, he could still witness the secret of the Chopping family become a reality. Thousands of long years, the family has been passed down from generation to generation, birth, old age, sickness and death are no different from ordinary people, and now his son is about to reveal this secret, how can he not be excited?

But Cho Yu didn't seem to care about all this. In addition, Chopping Yu's attitude was obviously disrespectful to Mrs. Long, Chopping Yun suddenly became angry, and was about to scold, but Mrs. Long laughed out loud first, and said: "These things are not something that a mortal can understand, sooner or later, this young man named Chopyu will understand everything." ”

Cho Yun wiped a cold sweat and said to Master Long: "Then please tell Master Long about the origin of your and my two families, and the history of this iron box." ”

Mrs. Long didn't answer Cho Yun, but turned his head to look at Cho Yu and said, "Young man, would you like to listen to my old immortal story?"

In fact, from beginning to end, Chopping Jade respected Master Long very much, not only because Master Long saved his parents, but also because this Master Long already had a demeanor worthy of respect, which no one could pretend.

But for the history of the Chopping family, Chopyu really doesn't seem to be interested, as if something has been bothering him.

Chopping Yu had an indifferent expression on his face: "Master Long, you have told the story, I'll listen to it!"

Chopping Yu didn't know that this indifferent expression completely betrayed his heart. What kind of person is Mrs. Long? The young man's natural stubbornness made him make an indifferent expression, but the longing and uneasiness in his heart for his own life experience were ready to move all the time.

How can all this be concealed from the mysterious Old Lady Long? Old Lady Long looked at Chopping Yu's reaction, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Then let's talk about it, I haven't remembered that distant past for a long time. ”

At this time, the man who served the tea walked in with a teapot, filled everyone's teacups, and then respectfully withdrew. Old Lady Long took a sip of tea and said to Cho Yu: "Young man, do you know which dynasty was the first dynasty in the history of your human race?" Chop Yu didn't dare not answer, and said respectfully: "I studied under Mr. Xuanqing, although I am not a real person, I still have this bit of historical knowledge." The first dynasty was the Xia Dynasty. ”

When he heard the word Xuanqing, Mrs. Long's expression showed a rare sadness, and it seemed that Mrs. Long also knew a lot about Xuanqing.

But that sadness was fleeting, and Mrs. Long asked: "Then do you know who founded the Xia Dynasty?" His father is the famous 'Dayu'. Dayu has merit in controlling the water, gained a dominant position through the primitive "Zen concession" method, and passed his throne to his son, replacing the "Zen concession system" with the "hereditary system", which is called "enlightenment", is the first person to obtain the throne through the "hereditary system", so history will set him as the founder of the Xia Dynasty......"

When Cho Yu was telling all this, Cho Yun and his wife looked at their son intently, their eyes full of joy and pride.

"Hahahaha...... The young man has learned history well!" Master Long laughed, "I really didn't expect that Xuan Qing would teach you like this, and count the establishment of the Xia Dynasty on the head of that kid 'Qi'." However, Chop, the version I'm going to tell you about may be a little different. The establishment of this Xia Dynasty is not as simple as Xuanqing taught you...... Xuanqing, you old ghost, hey......"

The last sigh, there is obviously a sense of remembrance and regret, I am afraid that Xuanqing's death, this Dragon Master also knows.

"I don't know what the establishment of the Xia Dynasty has to do with our topic today?"

Seeing that Yu Yu was a little anxious, Master Long didn't look angry, and still said with a smile: "When I finish talking about the establishment of the Xia Dynasty, you will naturally understand what it has to do with this iron box." ”

Seeing that Cho Yu no longer spoke, Mrs. Long took another sip of tea and said, "The founder of the Xia Dynasty is actually not Qi, but his father: Dayu. You should know that Dayu's dominance was passed on to him by a man named 'Shun'.

This 'Shun' is also a great character, he killed Dayu's father, that is, 'Kun', but he also dared to enable Dayu to control the water, and finally gave the dominant position to Dayu. Dayu was a noble person, he deeply understood the importance of the Zen concession system to the society at that time, but for a reason, Dayu decided to play tricks, abolish the Zen concession system, and establish a hereditary system. To this end, Dayu designed a complete plan. ”

Speaking of this, Mrs. Long suddenly stopped talking, and looked at Cho Yu with a smile, which was clearly telling Cho Yu: I know you have a question to ask, ask quickly. Chopping Yu really couldn't hold his breath, and immediately asked, "What is the reason for the so-called reason?"

Mrs. Long stretched out his hand and stroked his beard, and nodded with satisfaction, obviously proud of the right fit for the jade chopping.

Old lady Long replied: "When I explain the plan designed by Dayu clearly, you have to understand this reason." That Dayu has made meritorious contributions to water control, won the consensus of the world, and is already a tribal leader admired by people, he divided Kyushu, cast Jiuding, governed the country, and leveled the four seas. But at the time of the succession, this admired Dayu was determined to play a conspiracy. Yu deeply understands the status of the Zen concession system in people's minds, and the throne can only be passed on to talented and meritorious people, so he gave the throne to the meritorious 'Boyi', but secretly he has cultivated his son 'Qi' into a full-fledged heir, and created various convenient conditions for his son 'Qi' to replace him.

After Dayu's death, Qi Nature and Boyi fought for the throne, due to Dayu's secret preparation, Qi Nature won the struggle for power, and Qi did not hesitate to kill Boyi.

Boyi was originally the object of Dayu's selection of the throne according to the Zen concession system, and Qi's accession to the throne broke the Zen concession system and became the beginning of the hereditary succession system to the throne in history. Historians believe that the hereditary system replaces the Zen concession system, which is the beginning of the Xia Dynasty, so the establishment of the Xia Dynasty is counted on the head of Qi, but everyone knows that all this is carefully planned by Yu. Na Yu was the first person who was determined to establish a hereditary system and put it into action. ”

Speaking of this, Mrs. Long sighed deeply, picked up the tea, and took a sip.

Looking back now, when Teacher Xuanqing talks about this period of history, it seems that he is really avoiding something, and he always brushes it off, so naturally there will be no Master Long who will talk in such detail. Cho Yu listened to it and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

Seeing that there was no reaction from the slashing jade, Mrs. Long continued, "Young man, what is the Zen concession system, I think you should understand very well that the Zen concession system is a way to elect the leader or emperor of the tribal alliance to give way to others in ancient times, when Emperor Yao was the leader of the tribal alliance, everyone elected Shun as the heir, and after Yao conducted a three-year assessment of Shun, he began to let Shun help him do things. After Yao's death, Shun succeeded to the throne, using the same way of promotion, after the test of water control, with Yu as the heir. The objects of Zen have a common characteristic, that is, they have made outstanding contributions to the tribe and are loved by the world. In the society at that time, it was not easy to contribute to the tribe, and all those who contributed had a breath on their bodies, and this breath, in the words of human beings, was called: mythological color. In other words, only those who have the fabulous ability can become an emperor, and those who do not have this ability cannot become the object of Zen. ”

"I know this, I've seen classical mythology. When he heard this, he quickly interjected, "Dayu commanded Ying Long to help him control the water, and later slaughtered the retainer Xiangliu of the Gonggong, which is the legendary nine-headed demon ......"

When Mrs. Long heard the word "Ying Long", his hand trembled obviously.

"That's right!You're right!" Mrs. Long stabilized his mood and praised, "Before Dayu, it was the mythical and legendary period of mankind, and people in this period had mythical abilities, however, after Dayu, everyone lost their mythological color and became a living person, all because of Dayu." ”

"Dayu knows that the human race is about to lose its mythical ability, and it is no longer possible for human beings to rely on their mythical ability to maintain their rule, so Dayu wants to establish a world of 'home world' and let his dominance be hereditary. This is the 'one reason' just mentioned. ”

Mr. Long's words, Cho Yun listened to them with relish, because he trusted Mrs. Long from the bottom of his heart.

But for Chopping Jade, he always feels that all this is really illusory, and the old lady of Chopping Jade Dragon said: "It's really a fantasy story, Master Long, if what you said is true, human beings have lost their mythical ability since Dayu, and then the later King of Zhuwen and King Wu destroyed Shang Xuan, and what about Jiang Ziya, who established the Zhou Dynasty, he was ...... sealed."

Chopping Jade wanted to refute Mrs. Long with these words, but was interrupted by a burst of laughter from Mrs. Long.

"Hahaha, chop jade, chop jade. Master Long smiled, "You kid is really funny, and you have brought out all the myths that you humans have made up themselves." ”

These words made Cho Yu a little angry, and said angrily: "Since Master Long knows that myths and legends are made up by human beings themselves, then what kind of mythical ability does Dayu have to command Ying Long to help him do things, how can this not be made up by human beings themselves?"

On the hospital bed, Cho Yu's mother and Cho Yun on the side were both a little worried about their son's attitude. For the two of them, the weight of the affection is no lighter than the mountain, and at this time, seeing that Yu Yu was talking to the Dragon Master angrily, he actually spoke out at the same time to stop it. "Yu'er, don't be so rude......"

"It's okay, it's okay, Cho Yun, I'm afraid your temper when you were young is ten times stronger than that of your son. Mrs. Long was not angry but happy, and said happily, "If you don't kill the bloodline of the family, if you are not impulsive, you don't deserve to have this world." ”

Mrs. Long's words are so mysterious.

"Chopping jade, you listen well. The old man has free time today, so I'll tell you the difference. Master Long drank tea, stroked his beard, and said unhurriedly, "But I have something to say first, it doesn't matter if you believe my words or not, but you must listen to me first, and you must not interrupt me halfway." After I finish speaking, whether you believe it or not, stay or leave, the old man will not interfere in any way, young man, what do you think?"

"Okay, I promise you. Chopping Yu nodded and said, "This responsibility that I am not willing to bear, this mission that is as illusory as a mirror, I want to see what an unrealistic source it has." ”
