Chapter 176, Ancient Beasts

After Ziyou adjusted his internal strength, there was a noise and firelight not far away, and the loud noise just now alarmed half of Songhai City, and the various forces and officials in Songhai followed the sound, and Langyu came to Ziyou's side.

"How are you, sir?" Lang Yu asked.

"It's okay, let's go first."

Lang Yu nodded, and left here with light skills, Ziyou grabbed Wu Ye and left here, and when the people who followed the sound arrived, there was nothing else at the scene except for the rough sea, everyone looked at me, I looked at you, and they all left here under the drive of the government.

After watching everyone leave, Ziyou, Langyu and Wu, who were hiding in the shadows, breathed a sigh of relief.

"How did you know I was here?" Ziyou looked at Lang Yu and asked.

"When I was just about to go to bed, I heard the sound of the door opening, thinking that there was a wrongdoer, but I didn't expect that Mr. was going out, I watched Mr. leave with Wu, I waited until Mr. went away, and used the tracking skills I learned in the quicksand to analyze Mr.'s whereabouts, and then I followed." Lang Yu whispered.

Ziyou's cultivation is higher than her, if she rashly follows up with Langyu, she feels that she will definitely be discovered, so she waited until Ziyou went away, and used the tracking skills taught by the purple girl to keep up with Ziyou, and when she arrived, she saw Ziyou fighting against the sound waves, but it was obvious that Ziyou was losing the fight, so Langyu played his latest song, which attracted ten thousand fish to compete, interrupted the sound waves in the waves, and reconciled the sound waves in the song, which allowed Ziyou to suppress the sound waves.

"If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I'd be seriously injured if I didn't die today, thank you." Ziyou said.

"You're welcome, sir, this is what I should do." Lang Yu said, looking at the sea with fear in his eyes, and said, "Sir, what kind of creature is that sound coming from?" So terrifying. ”

"I don't know, it's kind of like the legendary Qiang." Ziyou said.

"Ancient beasts? Does this beast really exist in the world? Lang Yu said.

It is an ancient fierce beast, commonly known as roaring at the sky, roaring towards the sky, and kicking the dragon. It is recorded in the Confucian classics that there is a beast named in the East China Sea, shaped like a rabbit, with two ears that are long and long, only more than a foot long, and the body is rotten when the cover roars and drowns.

Some people say that it is an ancient beast, that it is the nemesis of the dragon family, and that it eats dragon brain, and that some people say that it is the son of the dragon king and has the habit of watching. The dragon roaring at the top of the Huabiao column roars at the sky, which is regarded as uploading the will of heaven and issuing the people's feelings.

There are many legends about the calf, but no one has really seen the calf, most of the Confucian classics are just a few words, and no one says how it screams, but the cry just now is indeed as recorded in the record, the weak will be shocked to death on the spot, not only the weak, I am afraid that people will be shocked to death.

"Although no one has seen the beast now, but this kind of beast exists, you may not believe it, the mythical beasts and beasts recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" have all lived in the world, but for some reasons these creatures will no longer appear in the world, even if they appear, it is just a flash in the pan, fleeting." Ziyou said.

The Confucian records clearly said that the creatures in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" really existed, but because of various problems, they are not born now, as for the reason that there is no clear record in the Confucian classics, after all, all kinds of rare and exotic beasts in the original Shang Dynasty still existed, and everyone at that time was like a dragon, and all kinds of divine beasts and fierce beasts were used as mounts and livestock to raise, but later after King Wu fell, all kinds of divine beasts and fierce beasts gradually disappeared, and finally nothing was left.

Many sages of Confucianism speculated that the reason for this was because after the end of the original Zhou Shang War, the heavens and the earth changed again, resulting in the complete incarnation of these fierce beasts and beasts, just like the original Black Emperor after the heaven and earth passed, people and gods separated, and the top gods and beasts disappeared one after another, but because of what caused the great changes in heaven and earth is still a mystery, the Zhou royal family was originally recorded, but after the Zhou royal family moved eastward, a large number of historical secrets were burned or lost, resulting in this becoming a permanent secret.

Ziyou guessed what the Taoists might know, one is because Lao Tzu originally served as the history of the Zhou royal family's Tibetan room, responsible for the history books of the entire Zhou royal family and the collection of various classics, and the second is that the Confucian classics record that Confucius went to apprentice Lao Tzu, and there are questions about this, but whether Lao Tzu answered Confucius no one knows, Confucius did not leave anything, maybe what was left, and later generations do not know.

Lang Yu was a little surprised, for the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" or various books that record rare and exotic beasts, she used them as reading materials for recreation, but Ziyou suddenly told her that these were all once there, and the various fierce beasts she used to scare Ji Yan also existed, which made her a little unacceptable for a while.

"Aren't you kidding, sir?" Lang Yu said.

"There are still descendants of the original Nine Heavens Xuannu in the Loulan Kingdom of the Western Regions, and they are responsible for guarding the weapons left by Chi You at the beginning." Ziyou said, the two peerless murder weapons of Chiyou Sword and Soldier Demon God are still lying in the desert, if it weren't for the wrong time to open now, Ziyou would have thought about getting it, with these two artifacts in hand, he could really fight against thousands of troops with the power of one person.

Lang Yu looked at Ziyou's appearance, knowing that it was not a joke, but he still couldn't accept this kind of thing, Wu on the side was already stunned, he couldn't keep up with Ziyou when he said it, he seemed to have seen this name in some classic book in Uncle Yan Lu's class, but before he could read it, he was caught and confiscated the book.

"Don't come here again for the time being, Wu, don't come here with Yan'er anymore, if she wants to come, she can't agree." Ziyou said sharply, I don't know what is hidden under this water, that stone tablet is more like a suppressive instrument, suppressing things that cannot be born below, if it is really an ancient fierce beast, even if the combined efforts of the green dragon and the soldier demon god hidden by the Mo family may not be able to suppress it again.

Looking at Ziyou's stern expression, Wu hurriedly nodded.

"Don't talk about tonight." Ziyou said.

"Yes, Teacher." Wu nodded and said.

Ziyou glanced at the rough sea again, his face was heavy, and after retracting his eyes, he left with Lang Yu and Wu, after Ziyou left, a figure appeared on the edge of the cliff, looked at the rough sea, opened the box in his hand, and inside was half a stone lock.

Puff~

The stone lock was thrown into the sea, and the rough sea suddenly fell silent.

After they returned to the heart garden, they found that everyone was awake, and they saw all kinds of inquiries after Ziyou came back, in order not to worry everyone, Ziyou didn't tell the truth, but just said that he heard something strange and went out to see, and everyone didn't ask anything more, and went back to their rooms to sleep, but after such a fuss, the whole Songhai lost sleep for a while.

The next day, all kinds of rumors about last night appeared, one by one speculated that the dragon king in the sea was angry, so he made such a sound, to warn the world, for a time the people went to the sea to worship the dragon king, praying for the dragon king's anger, but this time no one dared to take advantage of the loud noise to collect money, the last person who did this The grave grass has just grown, and they don't want to go to those people to be company.

No one takes this sacrificial thing to wantonly collect money, and no one in the Qi court takes this seriously, and there is a small sage village in charge, and there is no chaos, although the little sage village has the heart to stop the people's sacrifice, but people will inevitably pin their fear of the unknown on some gods, this is normal for people, Songhai itself has the custom of sacrificing the dragon king, so this is not an obscene and evil sacrifice.

But Xiao Shengxian Zhuang still sent disciples to persuade and explain this matter, so that the people should not only regard sacrifice as the whole of life, relying on the prestige of Xiao Shengxian Village, soon there were fewer and fewer people to worship.

Xunzi stood on the top of the back mountain and looked at the sea in the west, and there was no longer billowing black smoke, and said to Ziyou

"What do you think about this?"

"For the fear of the unknown, the people need to release this emotion, and the same unknown and powerful gods have become the best choice, as long as there is no obscene evil sacrifice and someone deliberately collects money is feasible, but now the immortal sacrifice is messy, the customs are not the same in various places, Songhai has a small sage village is good, if the local sect or government governance in other places is still possible, but in some places obscene evil sacrifices become popular, the powerful use this method to collect the people's money, the crime should be punished." Ziyou said.

Zi lobbied not somewhere else, it is the state of Chu, the land of Wu and Chu is more obscene is obvious to all, these days the Confucian disciples into Chu, also know a lot about this matter, they tried to tell these truths, but the result attracted the people, the government and the sacrifice of the three parties to reject, but they were expelled.

"Then what do you think of the affairs of Chudi?" Xunzi asked.

"Fight poison with poison, choose beliefs and sacrifices that are beneficial to the people, and use them to attack the sacrifices of other lonely ghosts and wild gods, and now the magnates of the court of Chu State want the people to sacrifice and sacrifice their money." Ziyou said.

Now the situation of the Chu State is only suitable for magic to defeat magic, if there is the support of the court, directly and forcibly order the ban on the lonely gods and wild ghosts, and retain the righteous gods recognized by the court, although there will be some turmoil in a short period of time, but after the big change, it will be the new Chu State, the people are rich and strong, and the country is self-reliant, but in reality there is no if, except for some officials, the entire Chu State has already acquiesced to this matter, and there are too many interests involved, and no one dares to touch this matter.

Xunzi nodded and looked at the beach and stopped talking, Ziyou looked at Xunzi and asked in a low voice

"Teacher, what is something in the sea?"

Xunzi is a great master, and he has been sitting in the Little Sage Village for decades, if he didn't find anything strange in the sea, Ziyou didn't believe it, and the Little Sage Village was so close to that side, last night's movement must not be able to hide from Xunzi, but Xunzi didn't say it, which made Ziyou very helpless, so he could only take the initiative to ask.

"Now is not the time for you to know." Xunzi didn't look back and continued to look at the beach and said.

"Why do you old men like to say this kind of thing, when I visited Taiyi Mountain, I asked about Yu Yuan, and Uncle Bei Shenzi also said the same, and said so, is that thing related to Yu Yuan?" Ziyou asked.

"What did Bei Yingzi tell you about Yu Yuan?" Xunzi asked.

"Explained to me Yu Yuan's origin and the original peerless heaven and earth communication, as well as the Eastern Emperor Taiyi's covetousness of Yu Yuan's power, and wanted to break through the great grandmaster and enter the realm above the great grandmaster, but in the end, the yin and yang family that was beaten by Yu Yuan was about to disappear." Ziyou said.

"That's enough for him to tell you, don't think about the rest of the things, you have to remember not to go to that sea area again unless you enter the Great Grandmaster, it's not a place you can touch now." Xunzi Fusu said.

"Then you have to tell me why you can't touch it, right? That sea area often appears in Yan'er's dreams, and it also attracts Yan'er there. Ziyou said.

Hearing that Ji Yan was attracted by the sea over there, Xunzi turned his back and looked at Ziyou seriously and asked

"Really?"

"It's true, that sea is secret, how do you think my three stupid apprentices came with words." Ziyou said.

"I see." Xunzi groaned in a low voice, as if he had thought of something.
