immortal

The patterns on the silk script are divided into four groups, three in each group, corresponding to the four directions, but the contents are extremely strange, and they don't look like animals in the natural world, but the old man said that they are thunder gods, water snakes, cows, Dragons, elephants, cows, fishes and so on, the twelve mythical beasts, but I carefully studied the small characters next to each pattern for a while, but I found something new.

I am not very familiar with Qi Wen, so I guessed while reading, first recognized the word "Qi", and then recognized "Xuan" and "Yang". "That's not right..." I muttered, pointing to a word to read, he also hesitated for a while, and said uncertainly: "Zou?"

As soon as the words came out, he seemed to be stunned himself.Seeing me looking at him, I quickly said: "I haven't had time to look at it yet."

He went with the blind man twice before he got the silk book in the temple, so it must have taken a lot of trouble, and he didn't want to tell me. After reading the twelve small characters, he felt hesitant, so he carefully folded the silk book and put it in his arms, after considering it for a while, he said: "The story you just told is very good, but unfortunately, I only believe half of it."

There was a bold speculation that quickly took shape in my mind, and I decided to scam him.

"The things you know and the information you need to pass on are not passed down to Chi You, but someone else? I can say that."

This is entirely my guess. The silk script and the copper fish are too old, and this is the source of the information, and the part that the old man understands must have artificially produced a new evolution during the transmission process. For example, he said that the twelve pictures It's the statue of the ancestors, but in fact, it's the name of the month of December.It's just that although I know its name, this corresponding pattern is also the first time I see it.

The old man's face changed, he looked at me and said, "Who are you guys?"

There was a bang in my heart, and a layer of cold sweat quickly broke out on my head.The old man clearly knew that there are people with eternal life among us, but he still asked this question. There can only be one explanation for this.

An explanation that I had a hunch would upend worldviews.

Holding the two copper fish in my hand, I tried to keep my voice as calm as possible, "Now that you see these two fish, do you still want to ask who we are?"

The old man looked at me fixedly, as if he suddenly became dumb, unable to speak a word, he closed his eyes as if he decided not to speak again, but his slightly trembling fingers betrayed him, obviously he was in a state of extreme tension middle.

So I took a deep breath and said slowly: "Within Nanshan, it's not salty, these are not enough?" The old man suddenly opened his eyes.

He struggled to sit up from the bed, and wanted to salute us with great difficulty. I stepped forward to support him, but he was speechless for a moment, as if he didn't know where to start.

"It's okay," I said, looking into his eyes, "you can take your time."

Chi You was indeed an ancient great witch, but the old man lied about his identity.

He is not immortal.

Witches have a special status in ancient history, because they not only manipulate the time of heaven and earth, but also control the rights of the world.First of all, shamans must be intelligent and well-educated people, belonging to the special intellectual class in the society at that time. It is undoubtedly insignificant.

Because of these reasons, the status of witches has gradually become irreplaceable, and even the king himself is the leader of the witches. He conveys the will of the gods to the people, predicts bad luck, and promulgates calendars. It is the most important ability related to people's livelihood.

Chi You is one of the great witches, but what is special is that he has obtained more information than others through the communication of God, and he has obtained the bronze smelting method.

This was a huge leap. With this technology, the Jiuli tribe where Chi You belonged rapidly grew among other tribes and annexed 81 other small tribes, becoming the second largest tribal group in the Central Plains. He then cast a large number of bronze wares. The image of the god is carved on it to worship the true god of heaven and earth.

This god is the pole star, Donghuang Taiyi, the center of the sky.Chi You used it to represent the god who conveyed information to him, and it was enshrined forever.But then a bloody war broke out between the tribes. It was a brutal political purge. Chi You, who once held some secret, was killed, and the Huangdi tribe obtained the right to sacrifice to Jixing through the war.

When he said this, something suddenly popped up in my mind.

One piece of you.I saw it in Wu Sansheng. It is said that it was unearthed in Anhua, Hunan, but it is a mystery from the time of unearthed to the casting period. It is now in the Izumiya Boku Museum in Japan. And he was filled with righteous indignation at the loss of the national treasure. After all, this You didn't even have an official name, so it was generally called the Tiger Cannibal You.

Thinking about it from another angle now, those doubts back then seem to have been explained.A tiger opened its mouth and hugged a man in a floral dress.The mainstream of the academic circles judged that this person was a slave, a tiger eating people, and used it as a deterrent.However, in retrospect, the pattern of the clothes worn by the so-called slaves is somewhat similar to the bird clothes worn by the old man on the Kuzang Festival.

What impressed me even more was the rhombus pattern on the tiger's forehead.

The Celestial God and the Great Witch?White Tiger and Suzaku?Or is it that the tribes from the west officially announced to the Jingman in the Chu region in the south that they have since taken over the right to sacrifice to Tianji and have the qualifications to become the new rulers?

This is not a tiger cannibal beast, this is Taiyi protecting the tiger, and the tiger protecting Taiyi!
