Chapter 40: The Border Crosser

Hearing that the real person of Wugen said that the fairy grandmother had just participated in a battle, He Xuanya and I both exclaimed.

In the era when we grew up, the word battle was a noun that could only be seen in books, but I never thought that it could appear in reality, and it was also related to a gray-haired old lady.

Rootless looked at our surprised expressions and said, "Where you can't see or hear, this kind of battle happens all the time. This is also what we face every day as mothers, and it is also the value of our existence in the world. ”

"What is Ximu?" asked He Xuanya curiously.

"Ximu is the guardian of the human race, and she is the messenger sent by Nuwa Niangniang to the world. I and Rootless Zhenren are both Xi Mu, and you will also be a Xi Mu in the future. Ximu is our most glorious title. Grandma explained.

I was always curious about the battle, so I asked, "The battle is supposed to happen between two sides, but who is the other side?"

"It's the Terran of the secret world. Rootless replied.

"It's the demon of the secret world. Grandma Fairy added.

The rootless real person shook his head helplessly.

"What is the secret world?" He Xuanya asked again.

"The secret world is another world that exists beyond the world we can see, hear, and feel. This world is hidden deep underground, hidden in dense forests, cut off in the desert, or isolated from overseas.

"In the secret world, there are also many races like us. Although they have different appearances, they are just like us, and they are all branches and leaves of the human tree. ”

When the rootless real person said this, the fairy grandmother's lips moved, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't say it, just sighed softly.

Wugen Zhenren didn't notice it, and continued: "Back then, Emperor Yao was the co-lord of the world, and in order to prevent the death of the human world, he advocated that all ethnic groups profess themselves to the gods and eliminate the divinity and mana in people.

"Emperor Yao, as the patriarch of the Wa Emperor, first took the Wa royal family as an example, and prayed in front of the Nuwa spirit, removing the divinity and mana of the whole clan. But the other tribes did not follow suit.

"In order to show their appreciation to the Wa royal family, and to protect the weakened Wa royal family, the gods divided the human world into the manifest world and the secret world, so that the Wa royal family lived in the manifest world, and the other races were expelled into the secret world.

"The gods have revealed at the same time to all the peoples that the manifest and the secret worlds should be at peace with each other, and that they should not interfere with one another.

"Since then, the realm of manifestation has become a forbidden place for all the clans of the secret world, and anyone who enters it, except for those who are in charge of contact with each clan, will be destroyed.

"In addition to being the guardian of the Wa royal family, our Ximu team is also the enforcer of the rules for maintaining the world. ”

I thought to myself, I have heard the words "secret world" and "manifest world" more than once in my father's story, but the true meaning of these two words is not fully understood until today.

The rootless real person continued to speak.

"For thousands of years, the tribes of the secret world have followed the instructions of the gods, and there has never been anyone who trespasses the thunder pool.

"However, in recent decades, the clans of the Secret World have been on the move. There are often people in the secret world who have committed crimes in the manifest world, but they have been eliminated by the Mother everywhere.

"In the two adjacent areas under my and the first jurisdiction, there have also been many esoteric invasions. I've never seen a large group of people trying to break through the barrier like last night.

"In the ground beneath our feet, there lives a secret race called the High Descendants. The Gao ethnic group was originally after the three Miao ethnic groups in ancient times. From the area of the West Qinling Mountains, it extends to the southeast to the vast area of the Dongting Land, and the entire underground is the activity range of the Gao ethnic group.

"There are only three places in this underground area that can be connected to the Manifest World, and one of them is at the foot of the North Mountain opposite the mountain Yin.

"Last night, hundreds of people of high descent tried to enter the land of the world through the passage at the foot of the northern mountain, and went southwest by the way, as if they wanted to reach the dense forest in the southwest where the Dry Devil tribe lived.

"The first one noticed this, and she summoned me with a chant, and I happened to be patrolling the area north of the North Mountain, which was under my jurisdiction.

"When I received the call, I quickly crossed the North Mountain and rushed over.

"But when I was walking to the mountainside of the North Mountain, I found that someone at the bottom of the mountain had used the Thunderbolt Wind Technique, which was the most ferocious trick of our Ximu, which could make the bones and flesh of living creatures within a radius of ten miles scatter and turn them into powder.

"I thought it must have been the first one to get into a fight.

"When I got to the bottom of the mountain, I saw the first one sitting against the cliff wall at the mouth of a stone cave, not far from the entrance of the cave, dozens of corpses lying in a ball, each with two heads on their shoulders.

"That's what characterizes the high race. ”

"How can there be a man with two heads?" I couldn't help but ask curiously.

Rootless Zhenren smiled and said, "In the future, you will know that there are people with strange shapes." ”

"It's obviously a monster, but I have to say that I am an adult. The fairy grandmother muttered like a child.

The rootless real person pretended not to hear it, and continued: "The high descendants are originally the descendants of the rainbow god mantis, because the rainbow is a friend of two unhealthy spirits, and the mantis has two heads of yin and yang. The descendants she left behind in the world are all two heads, one head is called the head of the gentleman, and the other head is called the head of the villain. ”

When the rootless real person said this, he looked at the fairy grandmother and said, "Shouza, you tell the two babies about the process of killing the crossers at night." ”

"Last night," began the fairy grandmother, "my compass circled around the table, and I knew what might have happened.

"I put the compass under the lamp and recited the sixty-four square kun elephant formula, and the compass needle stopped at the great place.

"I judged that something was going on in the direction of due north and a little to the west, so I looked in that direction.

"As I approached the foot of the north mountain, I saw a group of black and dark men walking out of the cave between the rocks, and after coming out of the cave, they went southwest.

"When I got a little closer, I saw that all of them had two heads, and I knew that they must have crossed the border secretly.

"I cried out: 'Damnation will be upon disobedience.'" You don't go back yet. ’

When they heard that, they panicked, and they all turned around and ran into the hole.

"I followed, and when I got to the door of the cave, I saw that there were many black heads densely packed inside, motionless, and in the darkness it looked like many briquettes were placed in the air.

"When I saw this, I said, 'What are you still standing here doing, and why don't you go back and forth quickly?' ’

"Those heads don't mean to move at all.

"After a while, two heads in the front row came out of the row and moved towards me.

"The two heads moved to me, and one of them spoke: 'Ximu Kuijia, we are only borrowing the surface this time, and we do not want to stay in your territory, this is the middle of the night, why do you have to live with us. ’

"When I heard this, my anger rose in my heart, and I rebuked me sharply: 'You little people have no shame. Secretly do blasphemous things here, and dare to make nonsense. If you don't leave quickly, I will remove the defilement of the heavens. ’

"The head in front of me sighed softly and shrank back, and the other head turned to the front and said with a hideous look: 'I don't know what to do, today I will let you know how powerful my high race is. ’

With that, he waved his hand back, and the rows of dense heads began to move forward.

"I saw that the situation was not good, and I took two steps back.

"Those heads are coming at me.

I subconsciously interlocked the thumbs of my hands, closed the eight fingers of my hands, and carried the true qi of my whole body in the palm of my hand, and silently recited the thunderbolt wind trick in my mouth.

"By this time, the two-headed monsters had rushed one step away from me.

"I parted my hands, made a gesture of holding the lotus in my hand, then pushed my palms outward, and shouted as best I could: 'Order!'

A flash of lightning flashed, and the monsters all fell to the ground.

"I felt that my whole body was limp all at once, so I put my hand on the wall of the cave and sat on the ground, unable to move. ”

Only then did I suddenly realize that the electric light I saw last night turned out to be emitted by the fairy grandmother when she was using her divine skills.
