024, Thor and Gu God (I)

Huwa couldn't help but be speechless, the description of his incarnation was what he looked like when he just left the Northern Wilderness and came to Bayuan, he was not yet fifteen years old at the time, and he did look about the same age as this child. Hou Gang also said with a pleasant face: "Do you live in a nearby village? Listening to your tone, it seems that you know this monster, what did you call it just now?"

The child glanced at Hou Gang, as if laughing at him for not being knowledgeable, and replied with some pride: "It is the god of thunder, the guardian of Li Min." You don't even know Lord Thor, so you're running here?"

Hou Gang was almost frightened: "What are you talking about? Thor ...... Is it still Thor, is there such a small, cowardly Thor?"

It's no wonder that he reacted in this way, the legend about the god of thunder has existed in ancient times in China. Its name is "Zhen", it is a kind of supernatural thing, which can control thunder and lightning, sound and vibration, and can also soar through the clouds and fog, haunting without a trace, very mysterious and powerful. It is said that mortals cannot see it at all, and can only hear the sound of "earthquake" in the wilderness, like the rolling thunder, and occasionally find the mysterious huge footprints it leaves behind.

And this hairy monster that looks like both a feather man and a monster, the body is only the size of an ordinary person, and the feet are like monkey claws, although the cultivation is good, he can also use magic weapons, and he can also spit out strange human words, but he was cleaned up by Taiyi and Hou Gang teamed up to take a look, compared with the thunder god in ancient legends, the gap is too big, right?

The child was unconvinced and asked: "What is small, what cowardice? Thunder God is the God of Thunder, the descendant of Lord Gu God, no one in the nearby villages knows it, and you just don't know it!"

He sneered: "What else is Lord Thor, he will hide in the tree and sneak attack, and we will take it down as soon as we make a move!"

Child: "That's a few of you, but it can't be said that he is not Thor-sama......"

As soon as he was excited, he forgot that he was afraid, and actually quarreled with Jigu. The cooing is already broken, and the child is also sharp. This quarrel has been chattering and miscellaneous for a long time. Huwa and the others were speechless, but they roughly understood what was going on. The origin of this hairy monster "Thor" is actually related to the legend of Jiuli.

Legend has it that Chiyou threw his weapon in Li Mountain and turned into maple. The maple fell, and a butterfly flew out of the heart of the tree. The butterfly lays twelve eggs. Not only did Jiang Yang, the leader of Jiuli, hatch from the egg, but also hatched birds and beasts and various monsters, and Thor was one of them.

Such legends are often interesting, drawing on older mythological content. In ancient mythology, there was a god of thunder for a long time, but he appeared here and became one of the monsters that hatched from the eggs of butterflies.

Legend has it that Jiang Yang defeated and subdued many monsters, and ordered them to protect the Jiuli people for generations. The image of these monsters. Later, it became the totem of some tribes. There are also tribes that raise and drive strange beasts, and even worship and form alliances with the big demons in the deep mountains, so these strange beasts and big demons have gradually evolved into the legendary monsters that were subdued by Jiang Yang.

What is the origin of this hairy monster, the child does not know, he does not need to know, anyway, no one in the nearby tribal villages can tell, and the legend about it has been circulating for at least a hundred years, everyone has long been accustomed to it. It is the monster Thor that hatched out of a butterfly's egg, if not the earliest Thor. He is also the descendant of the legendary Thor and the guardian of the Jiuli people.

According to the memories of the oldest in the village, Thor lived on a large tree near the waterside of the wilderness, and it has always been like this. As for what has changed, something that looks so weird. I'm afraid no one will pay attention to the difference.

And this "Lord Thor" did play the role of the guardian of the nearby tribes. Any hostile outsider who trespasses on its territory will be attacked by it. So how can it distinguish hostility, both with the instinctive consciousness of the beast. And with the spirit of man - first see if there is a sacrifice offered?

Lord Thor loves meat, grilled meat, and several berries that are a specialty of the nearby mountains. If you use these berries as a seasoning and spread them on the meat before roasting them, then it is its favorite. You can smell it from afar. This flat dirt slope on the edge of the water beach is actually equivalent to an altar, and the people of the nearby tribes often send sacrifices for them to enjoy, and the thunder god will not embarrass them.

If someone needs to pass by once in a while and it is not convenient to prepare a special barbecue, then it is okay to pick some of their favorite berries in the mountains. For more than a hundred years, Thor also has a spiritual intelligence, and he is familiar with the people of the nearby tribes, and sometimes even if anyone passes through the territory without bringing sacrifices, it will not be embarrassed.

However, if outsiders want to pass through this place, they must prepare special sacrifices and place them on the earthen slope by the water for them to enjoy, and they can only pass through with their permission.

Thor's lair is on that big tree, and in addition to guarding his territory, he also has a friendship with the Great Witch of the Fei Li Department. It can't be said that it is completely driven by the Great Witch of the Fei Li Ministry, but at least it is an ally with the Fei Li Ministry, and it is mainly worshiped by the Fei Li Ministry.

If a large group of strangers came outside, Thor would not be stupid, he would run to inform the Great Witch Gong of the Feili tribe first, so that the tribes in the mountains would be vigilant and prepared to deal with it. Sometimes although there are not many people who come, there are difficult masters among them, and Thor will also get out in time and fly to find the great witch of the Fei Li Division.

In an emergency, Thor has another trick, which is to set fire to the nest on the top of the tree. The smoke rose into the sky, and all the tribes in the mountains could see it, and they knew that there was a foreign enemy that Thor could not deal with.

How many years the thunder god has been cultivating here, no one in the local tribes can say clearly, at least more than a hundred years, maybe close to two hundred years. The existence of Thor does provide a warning and guardian role for the local tribes, and there have been several large-scale tribal conflicts many years ago, and Thor's help cannot be ignored.

Thor's territory is only here, and it is an inaccessible place on the edge of the wilderness, how can it protect those Li tribes? not only because it lives on a big tree and can see far away, but also because this place is located on a choke point. The nearby Jiuli tribe villages have a very special scattered environment, and there is only one road from the north, which is a narrow valley not far from here.

After passing through the valley road, I saw that the mountains were continuous and the hills were undulating, and there were people from various tribes such as Shanli, Feili, and Guli living in it. If you are familiar with the terrain and have a good cultivation, of course, you can not go from this road, and there can be no road between the mountains. However, for those who are not familiar with the terrain or large groups of people, this is a necessary way to travel from north to south.

These Jiuli people live in the area south of Yunmeng Juze, and they have migrated here deliberately, and they rarely interact with other tribes in the north. The territory where Thor is located is the edge of the territory where they usually operate. Many people don't need to come here, and there is no need to worship the god of thunder on weekdays, only most of Feili will send people to send special offerings every month.

Those outsiders who came into this place from the north were often ill-intentioned by many local tribes, and they were very jealous of it, probably because they had a grudge hundreds of years ago.

The Jiuli tribes migrated to the south of the land of China, and the distribution was very wide, and the tribesmen in this area were only a part of it, and they were the most remote part of it. Entering this Jiuli territory, of course, there is not only one road, such as from the eastern mountainous area, the junction of the Shanli and the Qili region, and there are several important roads to connect.

The vigilance of the various tribes in the mountains against the outside world cannot all be counted on such a monster. Thor's location is only at an important intersection in the north, and further north is the territory of the Chongchen clan and the Benli tribe, and there have been few people in recent years. Huwa and the others didn't know what to do, not only did they not send offerings, but they also waded ashore and stepped on the "altar" directly, so they were attacked by the thunder god.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Thor should have taken the opportunity to flee or light fireworks to warn. It's a pity that Taiyi and Hou Gang are too powerful, and they took them down in one look, so they didn't have time to do anything.

The so-called Thor is not a real god, this is just an honorific title for this powerful monster, which happens to coincide with the legend. The Jiuli tribes believe in witch gods, but that kid mentioned the "Gu God" just now, what's going on?

The Gu God is the Witch God, but with a different name. The Jiuli tribes have been migrating to the south for hundreds of years, and they are widely distributed, and it is also difficult to communicate with each other, and the histories and corresponding legends of each tribe have gradually become different. For example, the witch god believed in by the Benli tribe is the legendary Jiang Yang, while the witch god believed in by the Qili tribe and the Shanli tribe is Chiyou.

Fei Li and Gu Li are different, the witch god they believe in is actually the butterfly, and they prefer to call it the Gu God on weekdays. Chiyou, Butterfly, and Jiang Yang are all related to the myths and legends of the Jiuli tribes, and they have become the witch gods believed in by each branch tribe.

As for today's child, he lives in a village in the southern mountains, and his temper is a bit like a tiger baby when he was a child. He was very curious and interested in the monster Thor who lived in the trees, and often ran here to snoop, but today he saw the scene just now, which made him stunned.

The child's name was "Hua", and he was known as Xiaohua or Hua Cub in the village. When he heard that Hou Gang were nobles from the land of China, and heard their names, he asked curiously: "In the land of China, how do you usually give people names?"

The name Twitter is a bit weird, but it doesn't sound special to Andy, and the name Tiger Baby is more ordinary, but the names of Taiyi and Hou Gang sound too special.

Huwa explained with a smile: "Hou Gang and Taiyi are either a kind of honorific title, or they have a history. For example, if your name is Hua and you were born in the south, if you succeed in cultivation in the future, you may be called Mr. Nanhua, then you may also be named Nanhua. ”

Why would the tiger baby say this, because Hua Cub is so special that he has excellent qualifications. He won't be fifteen until this fall, but he already has the cultivation of the Second Realm, which is very rare whether it is in Bayuan or the land of China. (To be continued.) )
