Chapter Seventy-One: Failure to Adapt to Water and Soil
"Brother Zudao, say goodbye, I hope that when you return from the Ancient Buddha Country, you can take a step closer!"
"Brother Ben Fang, Brother Shanyu, although there are countless forks in the road in life, but thousands of streams return to the sea, and they can't get rid of the root cause."
"The world is like an oven, endure suffering, endure tiredness, refute the essence of the mixture, and eventually become strong, I hope goodbye, you can have a different change!"
Saluted with crossed hands, Chai Tiannuo mounted his horse, and marched with the mission beyond the border.
He Zudao saluted the three of them, and they haven't gotten up for a long time, and they can have this acquaintance in this life, no regrets!
A small river that is not wide, this side is Dahua, and over there, it is a magical place recorded in ancient books and books, the ancient domain!
Seriously speaking, although Dahua has always claimed to be the center of Shenzhou, it is actually just boasting.
The real center of Shenzhou should be the ancient domain.
Five hundred years ago, Xu Haoran, a famous geological exploration master, used a pair of sick feet to travel all over thousands of rivers and mountains, and wrote a sensational masterpiece "Mountains and Rivers Strange Chronicles", which clearly recorded the topography and landform of the land of China.
And for the first time, people really understand the shape of the earth beneath their feet.
At that time, the most intense reaction to "Mountains and Rivers Strange Chronicles" was the Dahua literati, who claimed to be the successor of Dahua, who was in his heyday and had always been complacent about the Central Empire, but was unexpectedly slapped by his own people.
At first, the literary world refused to recognize the description of Shenzhou, believing that it was full of loopholes, and Xu Haoran, as the author, was treated a lot of injustice, and finally died of poverty and destituteness.
It was not until a hundred years later, due to the needs of trade exchanges, that a large number of geological explorations were carried out by various countries in China, and the results showed that the content of "Mountains and Rivers Strange" was detailed and without the slightest error.
Since then, Dahua no longer considers itself a central empire, but only claims to be an ancient civilization.
There are a lot of descriptions of the customs and customs of various countries and regions in "Mountains and Rivers", and the content is very detailed, but when talking about the ancient region, it is only mentioned in a few sentences:
"The place where heaven and man are separated, the place where the earth is not like the earth, the place where the great terror is contained!"
Hundreds of years have passed, and it is impossible to find out what Xu Haoran experienced in the ancient domain back then, but when he thinks about it, he knows that the experience is definitely not very good.
The envoy crossed the small river and officially entered the ancient domain, and the others were inexplicably excited about leaving Dahua, but Chai Tiannuo frowned.
It looks the same as the mountains and rivers, but it always has an indescribable weird feeling with him, although it is only separated by a small river, the breath is very different, as if it has come to another world!
"Tiannuo, how do I feel my heart beating a little faster, there seems to be something wrong with this realm!"
Li Zhengxi rode to Chai Tiannuo's side, breathed heavily, his face was a little flushed, and his eyes could see obvious bloodshots.
"Me too!"
"So do we!"
There were people in the team who kept making noises, Chai Tiannuo frowned and looked around, and found that many people had the same symptoms, thinking about the records in the ancient books, he immediately shouted loudly:
"If you don't feel well, dig up the soil and eat it immediately, you don't need more, you can stool the size of soybeans!"
There was a sound of blades and armor colliding, and the uncomfortable student soldiers immediately dismounted and twisted a small handful of soil from the ground and put it in their mouths, and after a while, the uncomfortable feeling really disappeared!
"Grandma thief's, it's really effective, what's the reason?"
Lee Chung-hee touched his rough face, it was hot just now, but now it is cold.
"It's just that the water and soil are not adapted."
Chai Tiannuo said with a smile, Li Zhengxi squinted at him and said:
"Fool me?"
"How do you behave like this?"
Chai Tiannuo didn't fight with him, and slowly told the relevant records in the books.
The so-called ancient domain, which originated from the era of myths and legends, is the oldest region of the Shenzhou Continent, and there are vicissitudes of life everywhere, but this place has always been the same.
There are records in ancient books, in the era of myths and legends, two ancient immortals fought here, and the mountains and rivers fell and the earth was shattered, and the immortal realm in the supreme height was also penetrated.
Since then, the Ancient Realm has been different from the rest of the Great World, and many mortals have entered,
There will be uncomfortable feelings.
The reason for this is that the fragments of the fairy world fell and merged into the earth, making the rules of this heaven and earth very different from other realms in Shenzhou, if you want to eliminate it, you just need to eat the soil.
"I see."
Li Zhengxi nodded suddenly, but Chai Man'er in the carriage said curiously:
"Husband, why do I feel so comfortable?"
"Yes, Lord Chai, as soon as I entered this place, I also felt comfortable, and I haven't felt this way for a long time since I was forty years old."
Wu Shilang got out of the car and took two breaths, his face full of comfort.
"That can only mean that you have the blood of the immortals, and the purity is not low."
Chai Tiannuo smiled and rubbed Chai Man'er's head, the little girl's face was flushed, and her movements were much brisker, as if she had returned to the time when she was not sick again.
"It is recorded in ancient books that in the mythological era, all kinds of miscellaneous people lived together, and the bloodlines were fused with each other, and the blood of the immortals and gods was pure, so they naturally adapted to the ancient domain."
As the mission continued to move forward, Lee Chung-hee looked at this beautiful borderless land and couldn't help but sigh:
"Dahua should send troops to incorporate the ancient domain into the territory, anyway, it is a borderless land, and no one will rob us."
"I can't do it, I can't do it!"
Wu Shilang's head shook into a rattle, and Lee Chung-hee asked curiously:
"Why is that, could it be that other countries are unwilling?"
"It's not that other countries are unwilling, but that the ancient regions are unwilling."
Chai Tiannuo continued Wu Shilang's words, and when he saw that Li Zhengxi was still going to ask, he smiled and talked about the reason.
In fact, since a long time ago, there have been countless countries that have wanted to incorporate the Ancient Domain into their territory, and even some organizations have directly wanted to establish a country in the Ancient Domain, but in the end they have failed.
The countries concerned are either perishing or suffering from disasters, and if they insist on collecting the ancient domains, the longest number of months will inevitably perish, and there is no difference from ancient times to the present.
As a result, the Ancient Realm has become a borderland.
"Is there a curse of the Gu Immortals here?" qs
Li Zhengxi looked around hard, his heart was a little hairy, and Chai Tiannuo grinned:
"There are a lot of speculations, but I think there is some truth in the rhetoric of a Taoist master."
"What's the truth?"
"The blessed land of the fairy world, how can it be touched by the ordinary."
Looking around, Chai Tiannuo whispered.
There is no road in the ancient domain, and it is quite difficult to travel, five days pass in a flash, but only walk less than a hundred miles, Wu Shilang said with a sad face:
"At such a speed, I'm afraid I can't catch up."
"Don't worry, Lord Shilang, there will be a beautiful river twenty miles away, and there are flat rocky beaches on both sides of the river, so the road will be easy to walk at that time, and it should not be a problem to hurry."
A guide of the mission took out a map and looked at it and said, Wu Shilang breathed a sigh of relief.
At noon the next day, the mission finally saw the river, and everyone understood why the guide said that it was a beautiful river.
The river is wide but calm as a mirror, and the water is crystal clear, with many equally clear small rivers flowing into it.
On both sides of the river, there is a flat pebble beach of pure white, and further up, there is lush vegetation, not to hear the waves, only to see the beautiful scenery, no wonder it is called the beautiful river.
