Chapter 21: Hukou Village
Elves are influenced by the power of nature and are favored by the world. Even in appearance, because they live in the West, they have a tall nose and deep eyes, but there are still many things that are in line with Eastern aesthetics.
You must know that in the Tang Dynasty, which had close exchanges with the outside world, making friends with Hu Ji was a very popular thing.
Therefore, when there are great changes in the West and the separation of the supernatural and the mundane is necessary, it makes sense for the Eastern spiritual world to accept a group of elves in a friendly manner.
This group of elves are the descendants of those elves who fled to the East during the great Germanic barbarian invasion, settled down and multiplied.
After years of living together, their looks became more and more a combination of Eastern and Western, and even their accents were completely assimilated to the East.
Just after Chen Yuheng shouted "Listen to my explanation", the leader of the elves, the noble and elegant Elf King, slowly appeared in front of Chen Yuheng from behind his subordinates.
Tieling Elf Wang Cuihua has an unparalleled beauty.
Just like his name, Jade Flower, he is wearing a simple, Northeastern-style green-bottomed red flower robe with tassels on his shoulders. He is sitting on a fat and strong silly roe deer with long hair reaching his waist.
Blowing slightly in the wind, it has a clear and elegant feeling.
He looked at Chen Yuheng with eyes full of wisdom, and almost made Chen Yuheng laugh.
"Where did Xie Jie come from? What do you want to do?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, the Elf King asked directly, while lowering his appearance and temperament index straight down.
"I want to come and visit Qingqiu Country."
Chen Yuheng pretended to cough to stop laughing and explained his origin.
But after hearing this, Elf Wang Cuihua became even more angry, "Who are you bluffing!"
"Qingqiu Country has been closed for thousands of years. Are you coming to visit at this time?"
"In the past thousands of years, we have been allowed to go out, and we have never seen outsiders come here!"
"It's so broken that it seems to be broken to pieces!"
…
"puff!"
Chen Yuheng finally couldn't hold it in anymore and laughed out loud.
The Elf King became even more angry, and there were several more clicks of the gun being loaded.
Chen Yuheng took action now and quickly disarmed the submachine guns in the hands of the elves to prevent them from misfiring.
He could see clearly that this model was an old product, the kind that could even occupy a cabinet in the memorial hall.
Who knows how these elves got here.
"Okay, okay, I'm a visitor from afar. If you don't greet me with a smile, you can't drive me away to another courtyard and whip me for dozens of times, right?"
"If you have something to say, let's talk about it, can't you?"
Chen Yuheng carefully moved the submachine gun to the side out of the elves' reach and said to them.
The elves were frightened by his hand.
"Can you still do magic?"
"Who is it?"
"Come, come, friends, come and talk to us in detail."
???
What did you do again?
Just disarmed, why did the elf's attitude suddenly change?
Moreover...he disarmed him very easily. Why didn't these elves resist?
It seems that the entrance to Qingqiu Country is still a bit secret.
Tsk tsk tsk, you have to understand this, otherwise Chen Yuheng will be thinking about it and won’t be able to sleep at night.
Surrounded by the elves who suddenly changed their attitude, Chen Yuheng followed them into the depths of the jungle and arrived at a small village.
A stone tablet was erected next to the big locust tree at the entrance of the village, with the name and origin of the village written on it——
"Hukou Village."
"It was built in three years by God's blessing, and it will be avoided by God's failure."
God blessed three years, which was 906 AD. There was only one year left before the complete destruction of the Tang Dynasty, and it also happened to coincide with the era of great catastrophe in the spiritual world.
It would have been excusable if this village had been established at that time.
Of course, Chen Yuheng knew better in his heart that there was no such thing as "God's blessing". The system forcibly created a false time line based on the fake history it fabricated, and then glued it to the main line of time, becoming a The branch of "turning falsehood into truth".
But now that the matter has come to this, Chen Yuheng can only keep this secret in his heart.
He could only admit this period of history and firmly believe that it was true, and the people in front of him who claimed to be descendants of ancient monks were also true.
"I didn't know that senior was coming, so I'm sorry for missing you from afar."
Compared to the elves, the old village chief seemed much more normal.
Not only did his accent change into smooth Mandarin, but he was also more polite. After hearing the elf Wang Cuihua say that Chen Yuheng could use magic, she wanted to immediately enshrine Chen Yuheng as an ancestor.
In order to make Chen Yuheng feel comfortable, the old village chief also brought out various drinks collected at home.
Chen Yuheng tasted it and thought it was okay.
He now has 1,500 years of magical power. Even in ancient times when his practice was at its peak, he would still be considered a strong man, and his taste would naturally be extraordinary.
The wine the old village chief took out could still give him a good taste, which shows that this wine is extremely precious.
"Okay, let's open the skylight and speak frankly."
"What the hell is going on here?"
The information fed to him by the system introduced the ins and outs of the matter, just like a historical outline. The specific development and evolution required additional explanations from local people.
However, Chen Yuheng could also guess that it was nothing more than something related to spiritual practice.
The descendants of the monks live together with the elves at the entrance of Qingqiu Kingdom. If we don't discuss spiritual practice, what else can we discuss?
"I don't dare to hide it from you, senior. I have seen the power of senior and want to learn a thing or two..."
Either he had been living in seclusion for too long, or he was too anxious. In short, the old village chief did not make too many detours. Seeing that Chen Yuheng was relatively easy to talk to, he made a few simple remarks and stated his purpose.
The old village chief looked at Chen Yuheng nervously with his eyebrows drooping.
So you want to learn from me?
This is simple,
Enrollment is Chen Yuheng’s specialty.
Principal Chen touched his chin, thinking about whether to add more students after school started.
Hearing no response from Chen Yuheng, the old village chief became even more nervous.
Elf Wang Cuihua thought that Chen Yuheng was concerned about the fact that her people were "unwelcome" to him before, and did not want to affect the future of the village. She immediately stood up, with an expression of "sacrifice for self-preservation", and planned to speak out. During the speech, Chen Yuheng was moved with emotion and understood with reason.
But Chen Yuheng really couldn't imagine the scene of this handsome king wearing a green and red flower robe reading a manuscript in the local Elf language. Seeing that Wang Cuihua was about to speak, he quickly interrupted his spell casting.
"I don't want to refuse, I'm just thinking about something!"
"You want to learn magic and practice from me, that's not a problem."
"But you claim to be descendants of ancient monks, and there are a group of elves here, why do you want to learn from me? You can't learn it yourself? Your ancestors didn't pass down the magic method?"
"And where do you get the guns here?"
"Let me clarify these issues first, and then I will consider teaching you."
It turns out that’s the reason!
The old village chief immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
He thought that this distinguished guest would put forward some excessive conditions.
You know, their place has been dilapidated for many years, but they have no extra items to provide Chen Yuheng.
"This...is not complicated to say."
Chapter completed!
