Chapter 20 In the Peach Forest, Mr. Says Witch
"Where is the tomb of my old friend, where is it buried in the peach forest?"
Ji Kao asked Mr. Peng with a little depth.
Mr. Peng looked around and sighed leisurely: "The huge peach forest is where the graves are located. โ
Sure enough, it was the one.
"Praise the father and the sun to chase away, into the sun. Thirsty, want to drink, drink in the river, Wei, the river and Wei are insufficient, the north drink Daze. Before he arrived, he died of thirst. Abandon his staff and turn into Dunlin. โ
This is the above mentioned in the Book of Mountains and Seas, Kuafu day by day, thirsty to death, abandon his staff and turn into a peach forest, its width is thousands of miles, it was originally here in the peach forest.
He asked in a low voice, "Sir, old friend, but Kuafu?"
Mr. Peng's eyes moved slightly, as if he was sentimental and sighed: "Can you guess that it is Kuafu? Yes, it is him." โ
"But the god of the gods who died day by day?"
Jiang Lan suddenly reacted and said on the side.
"Witch God, your Jiang clan, do you look at Kuafu like this?" Mr. Peng's face was quite sneering.
Jiang Lan replied: "These are all the words of the elders, in the early years when humanity was born, and even when my ancestor His Majesty Shennong was not born, the gods supported human beings, and human beings worshiped the gods and began to form tribes. Among them, there is a large tribe that worships the god of Houtu and is the Houtu tribe. From the Houtu tribe, the letter department was divided, and among the letter department, the Kuafu department was divided. And Kuafu, the head of this tribe, is the same as the god of the earth, and is also a witch god. โ
When Mr. Peng heard this, he was noncommittal, and turned his head to look at Ji Kao: "How is it recorded in your Ji clan?"
Ji Kao shook his head: "Among the Ji clan, there are not many ancient records, and the bits and pieces obtained are all from the mountains and seas written by the adults of the Xia Hou clan after King Yu ruled the water. In the Book of Mountains and Seas, the records are messy and obscure, and it is difficult to determine the authenticity of each other. โ
It is true that in the Book of Mountains and Seas, there is a letter born after the soil, and the letter is born to praise the words of the father, but this word does not know where it comes from. Even in Houtu, there is also a saying that Gonggong gave birth to Houtu, and Gonggong is vaguely said to be passed down by the lineage of Emperor Yan.
There are two ways to Kuafu's death in this book, one says that he died of thirst day by day, and the other says that he was killed by Ying Long, which contradicts each other and makes him hard to believe.
In fact, the ancient things inside, especially those involving the gods, Ji Kao almost couldn't believe it. Until now, he hadn't even figured out who the God of the merchant was.
"Jiang Lan said, it's probably true, Kuafu is indeed from the tribe of the Houtu God, and he is indeed the head of a small tribe. However, my generation did not call them witch gods, but called them ancestors. โ
"Ancestors, are there ancestors like the Suihuang, Youchao Clan, and Yuyi Clan?"
Ji Kao's eyes moved, not that he was born before my generation, so he can be called an ancestor. The so-called ancestors must first be sages, or have great merit, or have great virtues, before they can be called ancestors.
"Yes, it is the ancestors like the Suihuang Emperor, the Youchao Clan, and the Tieyi Clan, who were born as sages and died as ancestors, although they died, their spirits were immortal and their wills were immortal. โ
When Mr. Peng said this, his eyes looked at the east, looking at the big sun, his eyes were full of grief and anger, and helplessness.
"Sir, may you tell us about Father Praise?"
Ji Kao is very interested in these past events, especially the things about the gods and spirits hidden in them.
And the identity of the gentleman in front of him, if Ji Kao didn't guess wrong, it should be that one.
When Kua's father died, not to mention too early, at least before the establishment of the Xia Hou clan, and from the Xia Hou clan to the present, most of the people surnamed Peng are the ones.
Jiang Lan also stared at Mr. Peng, an ancient anecdote, which is rare to hear.
Mr. Peng did not nod or shake his head, looked at the endless peach forest, and took out a bronze pot and a wine jue from his sleeve. After pouring the wine to the full, and then spilling it in the air, suddenly a misty drizzle began to fall in the peach forest.
Under the sun, the rain is continuous, and there is a strong aroma of wine, which wafts everywhere.
"Do you know what the origin of the witch god was in ancient times?"
When Ji Kao and Jiang Lan heard this, they both shook their heads, indicating that they didn't know.
"The witch god and the witch god came first, and then there was the witch god. In ancient times, the human race was born, and at that time, between heaven and earth, there were more than a hundred tribes, among which the powerful ones did not know how many. The human race was born weak, but somehow, a god came into the world and began to pass down various methods, and the witch path was born. At that time, there were some gods and goddesses who were highly respected by the human race, such as Jumang, Zhurong, Beishou, Gonggong, and Houtu, which were typical of the five elements of the gods. These gods gradually have a common name, witch gods. โ
"Later, when the humane civilization was born, the witch path naturally began to change, and the matter of His Majesty the Black Emperor's Jedi Tiantong, I think you all know. However, before that, among the shamans, they also began to make a distinction, and there were some shamans who believed that the witch should be sacrificed to heaven and earth to support humanity, and should not serve ghosts and gods. Therefore, those tribes where witchcraft prevailed began to have disagreements, and the tribes were separated from this. Those who are great in witchcraft, although they already have the rank of gods, they do not call themselves witches, because they are much more powerful than ordinary witches, and they call themselves great witches. โ
"The Great Witch Faith is separated from the Houtu tribe, and the Kua Father is different from the Belief in the Witch Dao, so it is separated from the Xin tribe. At that time, it was actually normal for shamans to practice, each with its own path, and each with its own path. โ
"Kua's father is like this, Yi, Xingtian, Huandou, Xiangliu, Wucheng, etc., how can it not be so. โ
These names, Ji Kao is either familiar with, or just heard of the names, but he can imagine how prosperous it was at that time.
His Qi refining realm is not enough, and he doesn't know if the current Qi Refiner lineage can be compared with the Wu Dao at that time.
"As for the death of Kuafu, it involves the ancient floods, the heavens and men contended, and the fallen ones were not only Kuafufu. I can't say more, I can't say more, and I don't dare to say more. Maybe as soon as I open my mouth, the next moment a sword will fly directly from the sky. โ
Speaking of this, Mr. Peng laughed at himself: "If you have the opportunity to understand all these things, you may be able to understand them." Or from the ancestors of our Qi Refiner lineage, they don't have to worry that a sword will fly from outside the sky. โ
"If today, Wuzhu's power is still so strong, how can it be my generation's wish. โ
From His Majesty the Yellow Emperor's defeat of Chi You, the Black Emperor's Jedi Tiantong, and then to the century-old rebellion of heaven and man at the time of Yao Shunyu, the Wuzhu lineage, or the power of the Witch God, was not suppressed by them after all.
And even in the end, it was plucked by someone else.
After Ji Kao listened, he didn't bother with the part that Mr. Peng didn't dare to say, but asked another question: "Sir, why is the record of the Xia Hou Clan's Classic of Mountains and Seas so vague, and there are even conflicts. (PS: The word tired and contradictory doesn't seem to come out yet.) ๏ผ
Mr. Peng sighed: "I can talk to you about this matter." After King Yu ruled the water, the dispute between heaven and man was eliminated, he denounced some gods as demon gods, and wanted to remove some witch gods from the worship of the people of Kyushu, so that in the Book of Mountains and Seas, mixed with many vague records. โ
"It's just a pity, not long after King Yu's death, Dongyi committed Xia, and all plans came to naught. โ
Speaking of these, Mr. Peng thought of King Yu, the holy king who was rare in a thousand years among the human race.
The name of Zhuxia is still there, but the Si people are no longer there.
"King Yu, how did he die?"
Ji Kao remembered the scene he saw in the five-color society, Ji Wen's life, he couldn't ascend to the sky. King Yu, did he not ascend to the sky after all?
Mr. Peng didn't answer immediately, he was silent for a long time before he sighed and said, "King Yu, alas, he killed himself. โ
In his mind, he suddenly remembered the great battle, after returning from the war, King Yu was forced by the gods and spirits of the heavens, and had to kill himself in Longtai, with the Emperor of God.
Longtai meeting, he was also present, King Yu didn't have to die, but he went to his death, at the cost of self-beheading, so that humanity and Shinto could be separated.
God has a divine way, and people have a way, which was established before the establishment of the Xia Hou family.
After saying this, Mr. Peng didn't want to say more, this kind of tangled thing, they older generations just worry about it. Ji Kao and Jiang Lan are still young, so it's better to practice hard for the time being.
In the peach forest, the wine rain continued, like Mr. Peng's mood, melancholy and melancholy.
Ji Kao and Jiang Lan walked behind him and didn't say more. Although the peach blossoms are beautiful, they don't have any appreciative mood, and they are all reminiscing about the various ancient anecdotes told by Mr. Peng.
Wu Dao, it turns out like this.
Especially Jiang Lan, all along, under the guidance of her predecessors in the Qi Refiner, she regarded Wu Dao as the enemy of the Qi Refiner lineage. When you meet a witch cultivator, you don't think you will be a good person.
Now, it seems, not all of them.
The practice of witchcraft should be treated differently from those witches who obstruct humanity with divine orders.
The Black Emperor is a Jedi Tiantong, and he didn't say that he wanted to exterminate the witch way, which was neither possible nor necessary.

Zhou Yuan, Ji Shi.
Tai Jiang Gao sat on it, Ji Jili and Tai Ren husband and wife, Ji Chang and Ji family husband and wife, all accompanied by him, looking at the Youxin envoy in front of him, and the nine Youxin beauties behind him.
"You mean, these nine women from the Xin family are all concubines given by Xin Jun to Kao'er?"
Tai Jiang asked with a little surprise, when Ji Chang married the Xi family, the monarch of the Xin family, that is, the father of the Xi family, was not very satisfied. Why was he so polite this time, and directly sent nine new girls to Ji Kao as concubines?
"Yes, Mrs. Tai. A few days ago, Mr. Kao visited the king in person, and the king was very pleased, so he gave these nine of the most outstanding Xin girls of the Xin family. It's just that Kao Gongzi is going to Qiyi, so it's inconvenient to take it. Therefore, the king directly ordered me to bring these women to Zhou Yuan. โ
Tai Jiang nodded and smiled: "Then thank Xin Jun for me." โ
During this time, she was thinking about finding a wife for Ji Kao, and it was not impossible to accept a few concubines first.
