330. The Secret History of Snake Ambiguity
"Imperial Blood?" Ruri Kazama shook her head, "You're looking for the wrong person, there aren't many records of the Emperor's blood among the Menggui people, so if you come to ask me, it's better to ask Gen Zhisheng, that's the history of the Eight Snake Families."
"There are still some things over there," Gu Bei shook his head, "And even if I asked, he wouldn't say anything, he didn't even tell Eri Yi about this kind of thing, in his eyes, the family is the first, and Eri Yi is only the second."
Hearing this, Ruri Kazama suddenly felt a little unhappy.
But it's true.
It's not that Yuan Zhisheng doesn't care about Eriyi, his feelings for Eriyi are definitely deeper than Gu Bei, but in his heart, the family comes first.
Ruri Kazama, who was pierced through his chest and thrown to the bottom of the well, must have a deep understanding of this.
No matter how much Yuan Zhisheng showed that he cared about Eri Yi and trusted Gu Bei, the premise was always that Eri Yi and Gu Bei could not pose a threat to the Eight Snake Families.
If Gen Zhisheng really regarded Eri Yi as more important than the family, then Eri would not have been locked up many years ago.
Maintaining the stability and development of the Eight Families of Snakes and even the entire Japanese mixed-race community is the justice pursued by Gen Zhisheng.
Therefore, until now, Gu Bei and Yuan Zhisheng's transactions have ended with "eliminating Herzog".
While the purpose is the same, the starting point is different.
Gu Bei is for the sake of painting pear clothes, and wants to eradicate Herzog to prevent future troubles.
Yuan Zhisheng is to cleanse the moths of the family and lead the revival of the eight families of snakes.
Therefore, although the two have been working together, they can't know the root cause after all.
Relatively speaking, Ruri Kazama, who is still straight, is better to speak.
Ruri Kazama was a little helpless: "This is true...... Wait, Ah Nu seems to know something."
"Childish Girl?" Gu Bei was stunned, "He knows?"
"Well, he said that Wang Jiang said something about it when he told him about Noh before."
"Before...... Gu Bei reacted, "Before being pierced by Yuan Zhisheng?"
As soon as the words came out, Gu Bei knew that something was wrong.
Sure enough, Ruri Kazama glanced at Gu Bei, then closed his eyes and didn't move.
Gu Bei could feel that the dominance of the body in front of him was changing, and the sharp qi belonging to Ruri Kazama converged and was replaced by a more gentle temperament.
After a long time, Yuan Zhinu opened her eyes: "Good evening, Gu Jun."
"Good evening, young girl."
Gu Bei said hello.
One thing to say, Yuan Zhinu's personality is much better than that of Ruri Kazama, plus Gu Bei helped him break the ice in the relationship with Yuan Zhisheng, and now Yuan Zhinu treats Gu Bei like a life-saving benefactor.
Regarding the information that Gu Bei wanted, he also said it without concealment.
"When Wang and I first met, Wang would tell me some stories, and in addition to Noh dramas, some of them involved half-breeds."
Speaking of this matter, Gen Zhinu didn't have any special performance, it seems that he is not the same as Ruri Kazama, he has long been relieved of what happened at that time, and the only thing he wants to do now is to kill the king and take revenge.
"But the king at that time just told me these things as stories, and I wasn't sure if they were true or not."
Gu Bei waved his hand: "It's okay, you say it's right."
Yuan Zhinu nodded and began to speak.
The story also begins with the war in the primeval era.
The black emperor defeated the white emperor, captured her, tied her to a bronze pillar that reached the sky, and placed the bronze pillar in the depths of the roaring sea of ice.
The Black Emperor ordered all the icy currents in the world to change direction and converge on that sea of ice.
These currents come in icy waters, leave in boiling salt soups, and when they pass through that sea, they drain all the heat, leaving behind the extreme cold in that sea of ice.
That sea of ice was frozen for six centuries.
Presumably, the location was around the north of present-day Iceland
ใ
The Black King drew two rifts in the frozen sea that were 100 kilometers long, and the rifts crisscrossed and formed a huge cross, which was the "place of execution".
All living beings were forbidden to enter the place of execution, and the realm set by the Black King shrouded that place.
For six centuries, even the migration of fish had to be diverted, and an ice pick that would never melt was inserted into the ocean of the northern part of the world, where the light never came, and then the roaring blizzard continued to strengthen the ice cell that had sealed the White King.
This is to show all the dragons the fate of the traitor, and it is also the preparation for the complete destruction of the White King.
The White King is the only dragon in history that can come close to the Black King, and even the Black King himself is not sure that he can kill her forever, and even cutting her off and burning her will not stop her recovery.
So the Black King spent six centuries preparing for this execution.
He imprisoned the White King in an extremely cold ice cage, and used the cold to constantly eat away at the tissues of her body, causing her to suffer and weaken to the extreme.
Then the real execution begins.
"Well, this should be the war between the Black and White Kings."
Gu Bei thought silently, and corresponded the story of the source girl to the things that Xia Mi had said before.
Gen Zhinu continued.
After six centuries of freezing, the Black King sank the White King into a volcano at the bottom of the sea along with the bronze pillar, and after the extreme cold, he burned her with extreme heat and reduced her to ashes.
The Black King then devoured the ashes and retrieved the power he had bestowed upon the White King.
The Black King believed that he had completely killed the White King, and had completely erased the White King's bloodline.
"Wait!" Gu Bei interrupted, "If you say that, there shouldn't be any White King bloodline in this world, right?"
Yuan Zhinu nodded, "Yes, normally speaking, this is the case, but in the six centuries that the White King was tortured, there were humans who ventured into the 'Execution Place'!"
"Humans?" Gu Bei was stunned.
Yuan Zhinu nodded slowly: "The domain set up by the Black King in the place of execution is to prevent the invasion of dragons, if a powerful dragon invades the place of execution and the White King comes out of the cage of ice, then there is no doubt that the war will resume. But that prohibition doesn't restrain the weaker humans, it only responds to the powerful dragon bloodline."
"It's like a wall can hold a battering ram, but not a rat." Gu Bei understood.
No one knew why the human had risked being crushed by the Black King to sneak into that forbidden land, and how he had resisted the extreme cold there.
But he eventually did.
He made a pact with the White King and obtained the "Holy Child".
This is a mysterious designation, just as the so-called "Holy Grail" in Christ probably refers to the "blood of Christ", which is now widely believed to be the "blood of the ancient dragon" of the White King.
That human being is the ancestor of the Eight Snake Clans.
He was also the first generation of the "Shadow Emperor".
Of course, there was no such title at the time.
It was only later that the emperor was supported by the original Imperial Blood family, so generations of Imperial Blood holders inherited this title.
"That means that the ancestors of the Eight Snake Clans blessed the blood of the ancient dragons, and in this way they became hybrids, and even close to pure-blood dragons?" Gu Bei asked.
The source girl nodded slightly: "Although the half-breeds all have the genes of both humans and dragons, but tracing back to the origin, the Black King Blood and the White King Blood start in different ways."
The mestizo family in Europe originated in the dark ages, where humans dedicated human females and male dragons to give birth, while the Japanese hybrids came from the forced modification of genes by dragon blood.
It can be called "evolution".
It can also be called "pollution".
"In other words, the Japanese half-breed is directly inherited from the White King, which is equivalent to a pure-blood ancient dragon?"
"That's right." Gen Zhinu nodded.
"But not every one of you is strong."
"Only those who awaken the imperial blood are orthodox, which is why snakes
The Eight Families have been chasing the reason for the Upper Three, because only the bloodlines of these three families have the potential to awaken the Imperial Blood......" Yuan Zhinu paused, "This is also what the King General told me."
"So what exactly is the Imperial Blood?" Gu Bei asked.
"It's the 'Holy Grail'," explained Gen Zhinu, "The first Shadow Emperor received the 'Holy Child' from the White King, and the Holy Child was divided into two parts, the 'Holy Grail' and the Holy Relic."
"The first Shadow Emperor drank the blood of the Holy Grail, this bloodline is the imperial blood, in terms of purity, the level of the imperial blood is basically equivalent to the four dragon kings of earth, fire, water and wind, but because the imperial blood and humans are mixed, the power has also been reduced."
"Understood, the Imperial Blood is the blood of the real White King stored in the body of the half-blood, and although the bloodline in the body of the ordinary White King Blood is also inherited from the White King, their bloodline is similar to the grandson and great-grandson of the White King, right?"
That's right, the story of the source girl and Xia Mi's description match.
Gu Bei felt that he had gradually understood everything.
The White King made the Holy Grail and the Holy Remains, and then the body was crushed by the Black King and the ashes were scattered, and then regained his strength.
The first Shadow Emperor drank the blood of the Holy Grail and bred the blood of the White King, and then led this group of people to hide in the Nibelungen of the White King, High Heavengahara.
The only point of disagreement here is that in Natsumi's description, it was Yin Shannaqi, a descendant of the White King, who took the blood of the White King, but in the record of the Eight Families of the Snake Clan, it was a human who took the "Holy Child".
But it doesn't matter.
The point is after.
Xia Mi said that the blood of the White King named Yin Xie Na fused with the blood of the White King and became the first generation of Yaqi Snake.
It is known that the blood of the White King = the Holy Child
And the blood of the White King = the blood of the Holy Grail = the blood of the Emperor
So what will be the blood of the White King that makes Yin Xie become the Great Snake of the Eight Clans?
White King's Bone Blood - White King's Blood = Holy Child - Holy Grail = Holy Remains!
Yin Xie didn't have to think about it to know that it should be Yin Xie Naqi's descendants, which means that this product should also have imperial blood.
So what caused this thing to become the Yaqi Snake should be this so-called holy remains!
Then the man who killed the first generation of Yaqi Orochi should also have imperial blood, so he was also parasitized by the holy remains after killing Yin Xie's branch and became the second generation of Yaqi.
At the end of the story, the second generation Yaki was sealed by Amaterasu and Tsukiyomi, and even Takamagahara, sank into the ocean.
The more Gu Bei thought about it, the more he felt that there was something wrong with this holy relic.
Yin Xie Na and Su Zuo no Nan both have imperial blood, and both became the Yaqi Great Snake after fusing the holy remains, that is to say, there is an inevitable connection between the imperial blood and the holy remains, as well as the Yaqi Great Snake.
It is known that the imperial blood is the Holy Grail, that is, the blood of the White King, and the Holy Relic is the bone of the White King, so the Holy Grail + Holy Relic is equal to ...... White King!?
Yagi Orochi is the White King?
So, the role of the Imperial Blood is to sift through the body, and the role of the Holy Relic is to host the consciousness of the White King Heras?
Logical and smooth...... At least there are no obvious bugs.
Gu Bei looked at the Yuan Zhinu: "Then what is the original plan of your ghosts......
Gen Zhinu's temperament instantly became fierce, but now he has become Ruri Kazama again.
"Resurrect God."
"I will welcome back the relics as a holy grail and become a new god."
Ruri Kazama said, her bright golden eyes full of playfulness.
โโ
"Report Depth." The headphones carry the voice of a child.
"At a depth of 1,200 meters, everything is normal, the oxygen stock is 90%, and the visibility is zero." Caesar replied.
"Okay, continue to dive, keep in mind the operating procedures, levitate for 1 minute every 100 meters, let the submersible fully adapt to the pressure before continuing to dive, don't rush it."
Yuan Zhisheng said.
"Report the depth to me every 10 meters, check all the gauges every 100 meters, make a big report to me, and get my permission before continuing the dive."
[At present, it is the most complete and best app for listening to books, integrating 4 major speech synthesis
Engine, over 100 kinds of timbres, but also an artifact that supports offline reading, App]
"Holy! Then I have to report to you 800 times when I dive 8,000 meters? Do you use me as a number teller?"
Caesar mumbled as he took out an aluminium tube of a cigar from his wetsuit pocket.
A Gaussian cigar from Cuba, the emperor of cigars, the conditions in the submersible were simple, and he also bit off the cigar head directly because of the simplicity and lit it with a butane lighter.
"Boss, the space here is so small, you still smoke cigars, you will choke me and my senior brother with facial paralysis." Fingal complained.
"Rest assured, the air circulation system will soon take the cigar smoke away."
Caesar waved his cigar, "At this rate, we're going to have to spend four hours at the bottom of the sea, so I've got to have something to pass the time." As for the cramped space...... Isn't someone coming down with a knife in the space?"
At this time, the hilt of the long knife was pressing against Fingal's lower back, poking and poking as the submersible swayed.
Chu Zihang sat with his back to him.
"Speaking of which, junior brother, we are diving deeply, what are you doing with a knife?" Fingal turned his head and looked helplessly at Chu Zihang's back.
"Maybe there's something to be found." Chu Zihang said casually.
"You might as well say, 'For samurai, the sword is life, and the day I put down the sword is the day I cut my stomach.'" Senior brother, it has been more than a hundred years since the abolition of the knife order was issued, and you can only cut your abdomen at most with a knife at a depth of 8,000 meters."
With a cigar in his mouth, Caesar's hands moved quickly on the console, re-stabilizing the submersible by adjusting the pressure values of the various valves and each pipe.
Of the three, he was the only one who was familiar with the submersible, after all, it was his family's collection.
"Chu Zihang, now release another 100 liters of gas, and let's dive another 100 meters." Caesar said.
Chu Zihang broke the sinking valve of the deep submersible and released the gas.
Di Trieste sank slowly.
Fingal looked out the window ......ยท In fact, it was pitch black outside the window, and nothing could be seen.
He just remembered a dive he had taken many years ago.
He had submitted an application for a mission in Greenland Ice, which was approved by the academy department, but was stuck in the hands of the school board.
But it doesn't matter, sooner or later he'll go back to that sea of ice.
Sooner or later, again.
