The mountain road of Wuzhi Mountain is much smoother than that of Zhongnan Mountain, although there are nine twists and eighteen plates, and there are many twists and turns between the mountains, but it is obvious that there have been people to maintain it, and the planks and ropes are very strong, and there is not even a single decay and break.

Walking on the mountain road, Pan Long also met the people who maintained this plank road. They are short in stature, with round and large ears, unusually slender limbs, fingers and toes, and many have long hair on their faces and bodies.

If someone with poor eyesight sees it from afar, I'm afraid they will think it's a group of apes.

Pan Long knew that they were humans, not beasts, and that their origins were quite extraordinary.

In ancient times, immortals were collectively referred to as "gods". At that time, the gods and men lived together, leaving behind many descendants, who have multiplied from generation to generation and passed down to this day, and are called "gods and gods". The descendants of the gods come from different backgrounds, and their appearances and abilities are also varied. The group in front of me should be called the "Tongjian Clan", and the ancestor is called "Star Picking Divine Monarch", which is said to be able to step on the earth and pick the stars with his hands, and his magic power is vast.

The matter of the Star Picking Divine Monarch is vague and unscrupulous, but the Tongjian clan is real. They have lived near Wuzhi Mountain for generations and rarely leave.

Some people have verified that in the past Wen Chaogong's work "The Story of the Stone Monkey", the stone monkey called the "Monkey King" is actually an allusion to the Star Picking God. And the Tongjian clan is actually the descendants of the Monkey King.

Some people also say that the Monkey King dominates the world, gods and ghosts are invincible, and the story says that he has six righteous brothers and is called the Seven Great Sages. And among the seven great saints, there is more than one ape, and the Tongjian clan is thought to be the descendant of one of them.

In Pan Long's opinion, these studies are all nonsense!

Where did the Monkey King come from in this world? Could it be that you have to move Huaguo Mountain from another world?

Not to mention, the Monkey King escorted the reincarnation of his friend Jin Chanzi to the West Heaven to learn scriptures, and the time was not right for them to exchange cultures and communicate with each other.

Thousands of miles away from the mountains in the southwest of Great Xia, there is really an ancient country called Tianzhu, and Tianzhu really has Buddhism. But as we all know, Tianzhu Buddhism and Kyushu Buddhism are the same brothers, both are the former Buddha Honghua ascended to the sky, his disciples established, this side is not the younger generation, there is no Lingshan Da Lei Yin Temple.

Great Xia and Tianzhu are not without contacts, and the masters on both sides often communicate. In addition to learning martial arts and exchanging ideas, everyone naturally inevitably chatted about each other's history and culture. Tianzhu has a long history, no less than Bactria . Buddhism is in Tianzhu Kingdom, that is, an ordinary school, and its status is even inferior to that in Daxia.

This fact has made many fans of Wen Chaogong a little disillusioned, but Wen Chaogong has these two sentences at the beginning of every book:

[The content of this book is pure fiction, and if there are similarities, it is a coincidence.] 】

[A person who is looking for realism in a fictional story must have something wrong with his brain. 】

With these two sentences setting the tone, no one can say that he is an old man who is talking nonsense, so everything can only be laughed at in the end.

Pan Long recalled these gossip stories and couldn't help but laugh.

He smiled and walked past the busy Tongjian people and asked, "Need help?"

An older Tongjian stopped what he was doing and looked up at him, looking a little surprised and a little uneasy.

"You want to help, but do you know how to do carpenter's work?"

Pan Long said, "I don't know how to work as a carpenter, but I can help carry things." I'm still a little confident in my strength. ”

The middle-aged Tongjian looked at him—he was tall, almost a head taller than the average adult man, and his body was stocky, and he had the feeling of a tiger's back and a bee's waist. Although he didn't look as burly and majestic as those strong men, he could also see that he was powerful.

Especially when he carries a bag of luggage and a knife on his back, he dares to walk the rivers and lakes, and he must be extraordinary.

But the Tongjian clan still shook his head: "Hou Shengzi, I have good intentions." But we're used to it, so we don't need help. ”

Pan Long hesitated for a moment and asked, "How do you calculate the salary for doing this?"

The Tongjian people burst out laughing.

"Wages? Haha! Someone actually talked to us about wages!"

"Hey, have any of you ever seen such a thing as wages?"

"Don't ask me, I've never seen any wages in my life. ”

"What kind of wages do you need to build your own road?"

"This offspring is such an interesting person!"

......

In the midst of some laughter, the middle-aged Tongjian clan explained to Pan Long.

But it turned out that as early as the early years of Great Xia, this Wuzhi Mountain was canonized by Emperor Jiazi to a master of the Tongjian clan. The master and Di Jiazi met in the end of the year, one of them was a small farmer in the mountains, and the other was a slave who killed his master and fled. Emperor Jiazi saved the life of this master, and this master has been following him since then, fighting in the south and the north, and finally became a founding marquis, called "Lingshan Marquis".

As for the fiefdom of this "Lingshan Marquis", it is naturally Wuzhi Mountain and its surrounding area.

Time has changed, and the Marquis of Lingshan has been passed down from generation to generation and has become the leader of the Tongjian clan. The Tongjian clan takes Wuzhi Mountain as their home and takes the initiative to maintain the plank road and expel demons.

Among these Tongjian clans who are busy at the moment, there are the descendants of the contemporary Lingshan Marquis. People talk about their noble status, but they are also wearing small short coats, carrying hammers and nailing wooden boards, which is no different from others.

When Pan Long learned the details, he couldn't help but be in awe, and praised it before saying goodbye and leaving.

"Among the officials and nobles of Great Xia, although many of them have decayed, there are still some heroes. In the past, Emperor Jiazi swept away the ideals of Unuezawa's life, and there are always people who inherit it!"

Pan Long was talking to himself as he walked, smiling happily.

When he was gone, the Tongjian were also talking about him.

"Uncle, why don't you let him help?" the young man from the son of the Marquis of Lingshan asked the middle-aged man, "Just like he said, even if you don't know how to work as a carpenter, you can help us transport things." ”

The middle-aged man shook his head, looked at the direction Pan Long had gone, and frowned.

"The feeling I have in this post-birth...... It's not so good. ”

"What do you mean?" the young man asked worriedly.

"I can't tell, but in front of him, I just vaguely feel some pressure. The middle-aged man's voice was low, and there were black flames dancing in his eyes, which looked weird, "It's like ...... The feeling of being in front of a temple or statue that is really a little strange. ”

"Just now, I felt that the Gu Kings in my body suddenly hibernate and lowered their heads, as if they had encountered a natural enemy, and they didn't dare to move. Until now, it has been cautious and full of fear. If the next child either has the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth, he is a Gu King who has a strange treasure and can restrain me. ”

The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment and continued: "Of course, there is one last possibility-he is a big man who came into being, with profound fortune and monstrous luck, and Gu Technique, a spell that is outside the door, is naturally inferior in front of him, and he can only be low-costed. ”

The young man opened his mouth wide, looked at the direction where Pan Long had gone, and was speechless for a long time.
