Volume 1: Born to be a Hero Chapter 173: The Ancient Temple of the Three Gods
Before dark, He Yi and General Qi and others successfully rushed to the next village.
They didn't stay long, but simply treated the wounds of Hu Wugui and Li Liangyu, replenished some supplies, and then asked the militia in the village to ask for two docile but very fast "snow horses" as mounts, and rushed to the ancient temple of the three gods mentioned by General Qi overnight.
Along the way, after passing through more than a dozen villages, the surrounding scenery became more and more desolate.
By dawn, the scenery ahead had changed dramatically.
In front of him, although it was a cold and barren place, in the most empty place, there was suddenly a magnificent and magnificent building, like a blue temple carved entirely from ice and snow, towering into the clouds, blending with the surrounding ice and snow, and it was magnificent.
"Here we are, this is it!" said the general, pointing to the single building.
“......”
Ordinary barbarian dwellers are housed by huge beast heads, but the building in front of it, which is entirely made of boulders, is truly extraordinary.
This temple, when viewed from a distance, is very magnificent, but when it is closer, it has a completely different style.
Countless upside-down icicles hung from the eaves of the high house, like dense bell stones, shimmering with a faint light, and the walls were dark blue stone bricks, each bearing the mark of wind and frost erosion.
On both sides, there are huge animal face patterns, different appearances, it looks like there is an invisible sense of majesty, the appearance looks dilapidated, but it still stands proudly, showing a kind of grandeur and style that competes with the years.
Quaint, old, but not dilapidated;
Heavy, serious, but not icy.
"Demon clan general, Zheng Zhen, ask to see the ancestor ancient god!"
General Hedgehog climbed the stone steps, stood in front of the huge stone gate, reported himself to the door, and immediately punched a magic seal into the gate.
The streamer flashed, and General Hedgeho's voice quickly spread over the empty space, forming layer after layer of echoes.
At this moment, above the wall, the eyes of the beast's face suddenly emitted a little light, like a strange beast awakening, sometimes bright and sometimes dark, as if it had some kind of resonance with the echo.
He Yi looked around and took a step back vigilantly, and at this moment, the closed stone door in front of him suddenly emitted a series of "Titica" sounds.
A little dust fell, and a pitch-black passage appeared in front of the two of them.
An invisible might, accompanied by a shallow sound of dragon groaning, came from within.
"Dragon?" He Yi and Li Liangyu glanced at each other, both extremely puzzled.
It was clearly the voice of a dragon.
Can the totems of the world also exist in the wilderness?
"He Yi, you don't have to panic. In fact, the ancestors of my demon clan have a great relationship with your world. General Qi seemed to see He Yi's doubts and explained.
"In an emergency, let me in. ”
......
The four of them stepped in, and the lights on the walls on both sides lit up suddenly, and the jumping flames illuminated the surrounding darkness for a few minutes, and He Yi could see the surrounding face clearly.
Continue to walk forward for dozens of steps, and suddenly open up in front of you, a spacious stone room appeared, very empty, with the sky shining at the highest point, reflected at the end of the stone room, on top of three huge murals.
He Yi's eyes were quickly drawn to the murals.
Left: A towering tree full of fruit is depicted, being picked by a group of unclothed barbarians and demon people, on the top of the tree, there are eyes and mouth that are no different from humans, and it looks like a kind old man, very amiable.
On the right: A sturdy barbarian warrior wearing a crown is standing on the head of a dead beast, raising his blood-stained stone axe in his hand, raising his arms and shouting, and the crowd below cheers in unison.
In the end, He Yi stopped his gaze on the most central and largest mural, and his expression was instantly moved.
It depicts a five-clawed golden dragon......
A true five-clawed golden dragon.
The Totem of China......
Swallow the clouds and spit out the fog, soar into the sky, see the beginning and see the tail.
Behind that long body, sheltered tens of thousands of barbarian people.
It uses its body as a great wall, blocking the monsters in the wilderness in all directions......
The Chinese Divine Dragon, who does not shelter Huaxia, will come here to protect the barbarians......
He Yi then remembered what General Hedgehog said.
Thousands of years ago, secular emperors tried to capture their ancestors, the five-clawed golden dragon depicted in the mural, and wanted to keep the golden dragon in captivity in the palace to enjoy it......
The golden dragon was helpless, and he adhered to Nuwa Niangniang's order not to harm mortals, so he had to lead his people to flee to the barbarian realm......
Oh, my God!
Look at what stupid things all those emperors have done?
If the powerful group of the demon clan still existed in the world, how could those holy immortals be so rampant at this time?
"He Yi, Li Liangyu, you wait for a while, and wait for the two of us to awaken the divine consciousness of the ancestor Golden Dragon first. General Hedgehog and Tiger walked to a small altar in front of the mural and slashed his palm with a sharp dagger.
A few drops of blood fell, instantly absorbed by that altar.
Then, the two of them sat cross-legged on both sides of the altar, one on the left and the other on the right, and chanted a spell to awaken the golden dragon's divine consciousness in an extremely awkward language.
......
The three murals in the ancient temple tell three stories, all of which are related to the wilderness.
The ancient tree on the left feeds the lives of the two groups with its own fruits;
The barbarian warrior on the right is like a powerful leader, leading the barbarians to unite together.
The five-clawed golden dragon in the center led the demon clan to help the barbarians repel the raging ancient beasts;
What they all have in common, whether it's the dryad, the golden dragon, or the barbarian king, all have a very large contribution to the land.
"Lord, this thing is so old, it looks like something from tens of thousands of years ago......" Li Liangyu couldn't help but say.
He stepped forward to take a closer look, and placed a hand on the mural on his left, lightly touching the texture on it, and the depressions were everywhere, and the traces of erosion by time were everywhere.
"Liangyu, this is a barbaric holy temple, including the Holy Spirit, you can't make a mistake!" Seeing Li Liangyu touching the mural, He Yi hurriedly stopped it.
"Yes, my lord!" Li Liangyu stuck out his tongue and retreated.
At this moment, on the mural of the ancient tree, there were suddenly transparent ripples. Then, the towering trees in that picture writhed strangely!
The human face on it suddenly changed from kindness to anger!
"Who dares to trespass on the Ancient Temple of the Three Gods!" an old and majestic voice sounded.
Thundered!!!
The ground in the center of the ancient world began to tremble violently, and the stone slabs under his feet cracked, emitting a series of explosions.
Immediately afterwards, a tree root thicker than an arm burst out of the ground and swept away in the direction of Li Liangyu!
"Liangyu, flash away!" He Yi's pupils contracted instantly.
Li Liangyu wanted to dodge, but the speed of the tree root was too fast, and he didn't give Li Liangyu time to react at all.
He saw only a phantom pass in front of him, and he felt a tightening, and his feet soared into the air, and he was firmly entangled in the roots of the tree, and was thrown into the air.
"Liangyu!"
He Yi rushed quickly, picked up the dagger that Li Liangyu had dropped to the ground, and slashed at the tree root, but as soon as his body was vacated, he was heavily pressed down by an invisible force.
The phantom of a huge barbarian giant quietly emerged, holding He Yi firmly in his palm.
With a little force, there was a series of creepy bone-shattering sounds......
"Titicaca ......"
"Ah!!!!!h
The huge pain made He Yi can't help but let out a roar, a miserable sound, back to the entire ancient ......
......
"Lord Barbarian Ancestor! Lord Shuzu! Please keep your subordinates!"
This scream woke up the general and the tiger beside the altar, and their action to awaken the golden dragon's divine consciousness was interrupted.
opened his eyes, but saw that He Yi and Li Liangyu were firmly controlled by the two ancestral gods, and hurriedly begged.
"Huh?"
The phantom of the barbarian giant turned around when he heard the voice, and when he saw General Hedgehog and the tiger without returning, he let out a cry of surprise: "You guys...... Little dolls of the demon clan, what are you doing in the ancient temple?"
General Qi said anxiously: "The two Ancestral Gods, please let them go first, we have something very important to report to the Dragon God." ”
The barbarian giant phantom grabbed He Yi in front of him, looked at it carefully, and said, "You said these two invaders?"
He Yi explained: "We are not invaders, we are just ......"
The Tree Ancestor interrupted him: "Joke! The innate soul came to the land of the Innate Holy Spirit, not an invasion!"
He Yi shook his head with difficulty, not understanding what the other party was trying to express, this was the first time he had heard that people are born and acquired.
But it is clear that they see themselves as the enemies of the invasion.
"Isn't it the same as the acquired spirit, the innate spirit...... It is difficult for the younger generations to understand. ”
He Yi thought about how to resolve this misunderstanding.
"It's different, it's different! We are the innate spirit born in the spirit of Pangu, including all the lives on this wild continent, all belong to the innate nature! Although your essence is also innate, you were originally lifeless, and it was the mother who pinched you out of shape, which is why you are ...... So it's an acquired day. The phantom of the barbarian giant shook his head and said.
"So you are the invaders of this area, because you are the ones who broke the rules set by the ancient gods!" said the towering tree on the mural.
"Mother, the ancient gods?"
He Yi thought about it carefully, and an ancient legend suddenly popped up in his mind: "You mean ———— Nuwa Niangniang?"
There were a thousand question marks floating in his head.
The secular heat and yellow, thousands of people, is indeed pinched by Nuwa Niangniang with loess, this is true.
Moreover, Nuwa is indeed one of the ancient gods.
But this was originally a legend in the secular world, how did the wilderness know?
