Chapter 20 Embarking on the Journey
Chapter 20 Embarks on the Journey
After boarding the boat, the first person Xia Yu saw was not Chi Songzi, but a strange middle-aged man, who looked to be about twenty years older than him, with a slender body, cold eyebrows, wearing gray cloth clothes, and his hands were wrapped in his sleeves.
The middle-aged man looked at Xia Yu.
Xia Yu also looked at him. This man is no more than medium in stature, and he has a faint temperament that rejects people thousands of miles away, which is unpredictable.
"Follow me. The middle-aged man said coldly, turned around and walked into the cabin.
Xia Yu hesitated for a moment and followed.
Passing through a long corridor, lined with two rows of rooms, almost all of the doors ajar, and the doorways were crowded with people. Xia Yu saw that these people were very young, most of them were in their teens and twenties, and there were even a few who looked younger than themselves, and their bodies were very athletic, and on the exposed limbs of some of them, all kinds of totems could be seen.
"Is this the heir of the Kuafu clan?"
Walking all the way, Xia Yu heard many people whispering.
"It doesn't look good!"
"Is this what the legendary Kuafu clan looks like?"
"What a disappointment!"
"I heard that he faints every time he uses a totem, is it true?!"
Xia Yu was a little depressed and a little curious: "Why do they think that the Kuafu clan should be very powerful? Is it really like Chi Songzi said, the Kuafu clan used to be the most powerful clan?"
After walking through this long passage, I walked upstairs again, and when I reached the second floor, the surroundings were instantly quieter, and there was no figure in the corridor.
Continue up to the third floor, where there is only one room.
The middle-aged man knocked on the door and said respectfully, "My lord, he's here!"
"Well, come in!" the voice of Akamatsu Zi rang out in the room.
The middle-aged man pushed open the door and glanced at Xia Yu, Xia Yu walked in, the middle-aged man closed the door and gently touched the door with his palm.
Xia Yu heard the sound of the waves and the wind outside, and suddenly disappeared.
He felt strange, while looking into the room, only to see that the room was very open, about three zhang high, dozens of zhang long and wide, like a large hall, there were not many furnishings in the room, it seemed very empty, only in the east there was a long low table, there was a painting on the table, and there was a person sitting behind it, it was the red pine nut.
Chi Songzi raised his head and said lightly: "You are here." ”
Xia Yu asked, "Who are those people below?"
Chi Songzi said: "They are all people who have lost their tribe just like you, and they also want to get their tribe back, so they will board this ship." ”
Xia Yu said: "Oh. He was silent, he was still thinking about Daze and Tian Hotaru.
Chi Songzi seemed to see through his thoughts, stood up, walked to the window, looked at the island that had become the size of a palm in the distance, and said, "You asked me last night why your father came to Daze. ”
Hearing Chi Songzi mention his father, Xia Yu suddenly cheered up a little.
"You know, many years ago, Osawa wasn't what it is now. ”
"What does that look like?" Xia Yu asked.
"At that time, Daze was still a vast plain, and the surrounding area of Daze was not a vast ocean, but a much larger land. ”
"Da Lu?" Xia Yu heard this word for the first time.
"The name of that big land is called the Central Plains. ”
"Then where is this Central Plains now?"
Chi Songzi said: "Right under our feet, the bottom of this vast ocean is the former Central Plains!"
Xia Yu showed a look of surprise.
"Does this have anything to do with my father's coming to Daze?"
Chi Songzi nodded and said, "Back then, in the Central Plains, there were countless tribes living in it, and these tribes had a common leader named Shennong, and people respected him as Emperor Yan. Under the throne of Emperor Yan, there are three most powerful clan leaders, known as the Three Witches, and your father is the ancestor of the head of the Three Witches. The second is the leader of the Suiren clan, the fire witch Zhu Rong, and at the end of the three witches, the leader of the Gonggong clan, the water witch Jiang Li. In that year, Emperor Yan traveled all over the world in order to write the Hundred Grass Sutra, so he sent the ancestral witch to act as the agent of state affairs, sent the fire witch to guard the Buzhou Mountain, and the water witch suppressed the North Sea Demon Clan. ”
"At the beginning, the three witches performed their duties and had nothing to do with each other, but one day, a person found Emperor Yan and gave him a different grass, Emperor Yan tasted all the strange flowers and plants in the world for writing the Hundred Grass Sutra, but that strange grass was unprecedented, and Emperor Yan was too confident in his own strength, thinking that no matter how poisonous the grass was, it would not damage him at all, in fact, that strange grass was the North Sea Demon Dragon Candle Jiuyin cut open the belly, and it grew up with his own bile for more than 100 years, the toxicity was strong, unfathomable, and the demon dragon gave it to Emperor Yan, with sinister intentions. ”
"After the death of Emperor Yan, the tribes have no leader, the people's hearts have mutated, the water witch took the lead in violating the emperor's order to evacuate Beihai, returned to the national capital, so that the demon clan was able to breathe, and soon the fire witch also led the clan to rush back, although your father struggled to maintain the overall situation, but since ancient times, water and fire are intolerable, in order to fight for power, a great war is inevitable after all, this war lasted for decades, more and more tribes were involved, resulting in the destruction of life, the vitality of the human race was greatly damaged, and the demon clan that was suppressed in the North Sea took the opportunity to grow. ”
Later, the fire witch soldiers were defeated and fled to Buzhou Mountain, and the water witch chased after him, but he was ambushed by the fire witch and trapped in the Buzhou Mountain. Buzhou Mountain is the sacred mountain that supports the Tianhe, the water witch as one of the three witches, since the divine power is infinite, give him a life to hit, the mountain can't help it, it will collapse, the Tianhe fell because of this, the defeat of the human race can no longer resist, the demon dragon led the demon army, with the power of the Tianhe, swept over, the fire witch led the tribe to fight hard for a hundred days, the essence of blood was exhausted and died, your father was alone, so he wanted to use the power of the sun to destroy the demon dragon, I heard that the sun's home was at the end of the sky in the west, so your father turned into a giant, all the way west, chasing the sunset, and then there was no news of Daze in the westernmost part of the earth, so your father will come here, as for why he died, no one knows。 ”
"Maybe the ancestors of the Daze tribe knew, but in order to survive, they took the initiative to surrender to the demon clan at the cost of forgetting the totem and the past, so the cause of your father's death should now be known only to the demon clan. As for Daze, you also saw it last night, and the demon clan finally came to the door. ”
"Is Daze in danger then?"
Chi Songzi said: "It shouldn't be for the time being, in order to rule the world, the demon dragon set up nine mansions in the West Sea, among which the Zhaoyao Mansion closest to Daze is also separated by tens of thousands of miles, and Daze has a bad climate, and the general demon clan will not come here, the two little demons last night were probably just fugitives from the demon mansion, otherwise they would not have run to Daze." ”
Xia Yu was a little relieved.
"So, my father, as well as my dead clansmen, were all killed by the demon dragon?" Xia Yu said hatefully.
"That's right, not only your Kuafu clan, but all the tribes, including Daze, and our Fengbo clan, are like this!" Chi Songzi's face also showed hatred, but then there was a hint of helplessness, "Alas, but if it weren't for our tribes killing each other, the demon dragon would not be able to dominate the world!"
Xia Yu was thoughtful.
Chi Songzi glanced at him and said slowly: "Although I promised you to try my best to help you find the lost clansmen, but now in the vast demon sea, with your reputation and bloodline of Kua's father, it must be the most feared object of the demon clan, so the possibility of them surviving is very small." ”
Xia Yu gritted his teeth and did not speak.
Suddenly, he raised his head, his eyes full of indignation and determination: "Even if I can't find my clan, I will let the Kuafu clan continue, and I must rebuild my clan!"
Chi Songzi's face showed a look of approval: "That's good, but if the river falls today, if you want to rebuild the tribe, you must first block the Tianhe, clear the demon sea, and let the earth come out of the water again!"
"Block the Tianhe?" Xia Yu was a little confused, he hadn't even seen what the Tianhe River looked like, so why stop it.
Seeing his expression, Chi Songzi smiled and said, "You don't have to think about how to block it, because before that, we must at least pass through this demon sea and reach Buzhou Mountain!"
Xia Yu heard this and said in surprise: "The place where this ship is going is Buzhou Mountain?"
Chi Songzi nodded: "Of course, you are not the only one who wants to rebuild the clan! And don't be in a hurry to be happy, the demon sea is vast, with the power of this ship, it can be said that it is difficult to move an inch, let's go, it can basically be said that there is no return, the road is extremely difficult, not only there are millions of demon clan troops, but also the demon dragon candle Jiuyin is in charge, you want to reach Buzhou Mountain alive, there are many things to do!"
Xia Yu nodded.
Chi Songzi said: "Since you have this determination, then from now on, you will be a member of this ship!"
"The name of this ship, called Huaxia, the hull is made of ancient trees that have long been buried at the bottom of the sea, so it is so huge, the people on this ship, are all people from various tribes who have obtained the totem inheritance, called totem warriors, including you, there are more than 300 people, I am the leader of this ship, under me, there are three war divisions, the three most outstanding people on this ship, the one who took you upstairs just now is one of them, and the other two war divisions are not currently on the ship. ”
"Generally speaking, unless the new people on the ship are very capable, they have to start from ordinary totem warriors, if they can show convincing strength in the future, then they can become war divisions, since the ship was built, nearly twenty years, the cumulative number of people on the ship is tens of thousands, but there are only three war divisions in total. Although you are a Kuafu clan, after all, you have just received the totem inheritance, not to mention that you have been in a state of malnutrition since you were born, so with your current strength, you can only be a warrior according to the rules, if that is the case, do you have any opinion?"
