Chapter 350: The Legend of Qingzhiwu
The reason why the five major ethnic groups, as five fighting nations, have stood firm since ancient times is that many scholars and politicians believe that their strength is not only in terms of strength, but also closely related to their national spirit and cultural background.
Indeed, in the case of countries, the strength of a country is related to its economic, political and military strength. But a world power must also be a cultural power, which is confirmed in many ways. Interestingly, the ancient civilizations that have survived to this day have preserved their cultural traditions quite well, and the mythological system is also an important part of it, but this link is often overlooked.
A large part of the reason why the five major clans have survived and not been swallowed up and eroded by other cultures in the world is because each of the five major clans and their sub-clans have their own myths and epics.
Let's take the Niandong clan as an example, the cultural education that the children of this clan have received in the school since they were young has a myth about the Niandongli clan opening up the world. The pioneer god of the Nian Power Clan: Vino, is also a well-known existence to everyone. Not only that, but there are other well-known gods among the Minding Power clan, as mentioned before: Miss Dolansha is also one of them, and ......
There are legends about the opening of the world by Vino and the birth of mankind, which are well documented and collected in the library of Des Gaalor College. This was written and recorded by scholars in the past, and now it seems that it is no different from what is taught to the next generation in the school of the Nian Power Clan. Here's what it looks like:
Legend has it that the world was born from a sphere. This sphere has no concept of size, no mass, no time. Breaking this sphere gives birth to an endless new world. And this breaking sphere is the opening god: Vino. However, the new world opened up by Vino is still slowly turning back into its original sphere, which is a headache for her. She had no other way but to watch the world revert to the sphere of nothingness, and she used her body to form a big explosion and make the sphere of nothingness completely unfold and make it impossible to recover. After the explosion, the fragments of her body turned into seven gods. They are: God of Fire: Yu Yi (female), God of Ice: Kuta (female), God of Wind: Tumu (female), God of Light: Reno, God of Darkness: Fensha, God of Thunder: Kona, and the smallest god with no power: Moi. Each of them is in charge of their own attributes, and they work together to build a new era. Then they mingled with each other, protecting the powerless of the least god. Their procreation made the world more prosperous, but none of the gods wanted to mate with Moy. Eventually, the god of fire, Ming Yuyi, mated with him to produce offspring who could use fire but could not make it. Just go and listen to the book
This is the myth of the Nian Power clan, but this myth is a story that cannot be studied and passed down by word of mouth. And there is another kind of legend that exists in the world, in addition to the teacher Dolansha mentioned before, there is another, oh no!
If it is only that the teacher Dolansha who appeared in the dream is not real, then the existence of this legend is real. That is the angry cry that can always be heard from the bottom of the lake from time to time, and the reason why it is true is because everyone in the Nianli clan has heard it.
I can't say when it started, no one can say how many years it has existed, from top to bottom, old to young, people have acquiesced to this existence. How to put it, when there is a shout, if you see someone on the street who has a violent reaction, then this person must be an alien traveler.
The most common time for this sound is at night, when the cry of resentment appears, everyone will always feel a chill down their spine as if they have met a ghost. This voice, especially the closer it leans to the edge of Qingzhiwu City, the more clearly it can be heard. In the long run, people can't stand this kind of torture. Therefore, after that, the surrounding area of Qingzhiwu has become a bustling commercial street. Yes, the shopping streets around the city are very prosperous, attracting travelers who come and go. However, there are very few hotels in this bustling shopping street for travelers to stay in. And, at night, it's a different place from the bustle of the day. As soon as the sun went down, the merchants returned to their homes away from the shopping street, which fell silent. Excluding holidays, this shopping street is basically empty as soon as night falls. People who are on a night road at night are very scared when they walk here.
It's better during the day, after all, there are a lot of people, and I don't feel anything when I share the fear. It's just that if in the daytime, when the female ghost-like cry is together, everyone will invariably close their mouths and be quiet, no matter what important things were discussed before, even the child's crying can be stopped instantly, just like an unwritten rule, this sound has such magic.
