558. Mountain Fortress (The secret of longevity has been changed)(1/2)
The history that can be verified in Jiuzhou was first in the Xia Dynasty. There was a book called "The Book of Rites in the Great Xia", which recorded some of the lives and daily experiences of the ancients.
Because the recorder is a monk, this book is considered to be the earliest description of practice among the human race, and it is all about the ancients' understanding of the world and all things.
Of course, the description of animals is indispensable, but the classification of animals in "The Book of Rites of the Great Xia" is completely different from the present. It is simply divided into five categories: "Zi Scale Feather Honey" and synthesizes "Five Insects":
Birds are called "feathered insects" and are led by phoenixes;
The animals are called "caterpillars" and are led by the Qilin;
Insects and aquatic species with carapaces are called "insects" and are led by spirit turtles;
Scale fish, reptiles, etc. and winged insects are called "scale insects" and are led by dragons;
Humans, earthworms, toads, eels, scaleless sea fish, scaleless snakes and other naked creatures with few hair and few scales are called "ebeasts" or "worms", with saints as their leaders.
The insects mentioned by Liei Chang are the fifth type of insect among the five insects!
Wang Qilin has never read "The Book of Rites in the Great Xia". The content of this book is extremely lost, the remaining content is intermittent, and there is no systematic connection, which makes the content become contradictory and even unbelievable.
But he knew the five insects, and even knew it very early:
Because the people call tigers as big worms, snakes as long worms, lazy people are called lazy worms, those who love reading are called bookworms, and sparrows are called small worms...
Of course, men are sometimes called Xiaozhu and do not have this title in many places. Instead, they call the man's baby Xiaoju. Here Xiaoju and Xiaoju have the same meaning.
When Wang Qilin knew these names when he was a child, he found it strange, so he carefully inquired about the reasons. From the old people in the village, he learned the saying that the five ancient insects were all insects.
So he knew the five insects, and he also knew that insects, feather insects, caterpillars, etc. were not the names of a kind of insect, but a classification.
Faced with the title that the lawyer subconsciously uttered, he explained his understanding of the five insects.
After hearing this, Xiao Liaochang shook his head: "Mr. Wang, I don't know what you said about "The Book of the Great Xia Rites". I know the so-called five insects, but the statement about the five insects is different from that of you Han people."
He then told Wang Qilin about the explanations of the ancient times by the Shanli tribe.
First of all, in ancient times, the sky and the earth were in constant turmoil, and trees could walk and stones could speak.
The heaven, earth, sun, moon, stone, wood, water, fire, mountains, rivers and rivers have not yet been formed. However, the shadows of heaven, earth, the shadows of sun, moon, stone, wood, water, fire, mountains, rivers and rivers have appeared.
Then due to the changes in breath and sound, a great god named Panguo King was born. Panguo King was one. After he appeared, he gave birth to heaven and earth, which are two, the sun, moon and stars are three, and the stars are broken in the void, which are all things in the sky.
The earth produces water, soil and mountains, and these are three. Similarly, the water produces all things in rivers, lakes and seas. The mountains produce peaks and all things, and the land produces desert swamps, black soil, red soil and other things.
All things in the world appear here.
But there were no creatures. At this time, the trees could walk and the stones could speak, but they had no intelligence. The Panguo King let the spiritual energy of the trees and the stones combine and lay five eggs together!
Five eggs were broken and crawled out of five kinds of insects. The first was feather insect. The feather insects turned into ten thousand species and flew into the sky.
The second is caterpillars, which have turned into thousands of species and jumped into the jungle.
The third is insects, which transform into ten thousand species and penetrate into the land.
The fourth is scale insects. Scale insects have turned into thousands of species and jumped into clear water.
The fifth is worms, which transform into thousands of species, walking between heaven and earth...
This account exists in the form of singing poems. The voice of Xiao Liaochang is low, his pronunciation is clear, and his rhythm is full of rhythm. Wang Qilin feels quite good when he hears it.
Ba Miao lay on a stone with her legs crossed, her fat claws lashing with rhythm on her belly, squinted her eyes and mouth tilted, and she looked like a stupid son of a landlord who was listening to the little song.
Shi Hey kept protruding his head at the hole, and the little bug wanted to drill a hole.
After singing the five insects, Galiao stopped and said, "This is called "Creation Record", which is the earliest epic of the world and all things in our mountains. It was passed down by King Panguo."
Wang Qilin said: "The Panguo King you are talking about is Pangu, the ancestor of our Han people, right?"
The guardian shook his head and said, "I don't know, maybe it's right, all things are the king of Panguo, and Panguo Pangu is just a little difference in accent."
Wang Qilin asked: "Does there be a detailed account of the five insects in your "Creation Record"? How do you know that the little insect on my shoulder is a worm?"
Jungliaochang said: "The Founding Record does not specifically describe what the five insects look like, but our clan also has a secret realm of ancestors. There are many murals in the secret realm, and there are pictures of the five insects in it."
He pointed to Shihe and said, "This is the case with the worm. It can turn from one eye to two eyes, and from two eyes to one eye. The most important thing is that the old man has a natal worm. When the old man sees it, the natal worm develops a close heart to it. This is the ability of the five insects."
"The five insects are the ancestors of all insects. All insects should not attack the insects of their ancestors. This is the rule."
Wang Qilin suddenly thought of something when he first got the Ten Hey.
He was still in Uehara Mansion at that time. Once he went to find the Yinjiang Post Office to find Taiba, and was stopped by an Iron Guard. The Iron Guard's weapon was a Qin Snake. At that time, the Qin Snake entered his body, and the Qin Snake did not attack him again.
Most snakes have scales and belong to scale insects, but the zither snake has no scales. The whole body is silvery and can turn into a silver spear. It is a worm!
He continued to think about it again. Later, he and Xu Da went down the yin road and met a group of ghosts who wanted to escape from the yin road. Through Shihe, he could see the ghost's appearance and hear the ghost's words: Ghosts are also insects!
Another time, he used Shihe. He used Shihe to persuade the golden-winged bird to surrender. The golden-winged bird is not a worm, but is also a Wanwan. At that time, it was Shihe who entered his body. The golden-winged bird developed a good impression of him and was willing to negotiate with him to control his sword for him.
There is also the Great Python God, who is not a worm, so he used the ten heys to persuade the Great Python God to surrender. The Great Python God refused to agree at first, but in the end he surrendered under the threat of violence.
If you think about it carefully, the Great Python God is one of the eight tribes of the Heavenly Dragons. He is strong in nature and should not be so easy to surrender.
The reason why he would surrender was that he had a good impression of Wang Qilin. If he did not surrender, he would be beaten by Asura's mumbo and the Kinnarona war dealers, so he chose to surrender.
Wang Qilin also thought of the Mai Wang who turned into Qin Tao's identity and chased several scholars. Mai Wang was a monster transformed by a bookworm and a worm. When he saw Shi Hee for the first time, he showed abnormal closeness.
The name of the wormfish is not a fish but a scale insect. It is a serious insect, but it becomes a worm after it turns into a human, so it is so intimate with Shihe.
Then he found that after Shihe got into his ear, he could even understand the nonsense, so he asked Shihe to get into his ear and listen to the voices of Ba Miao and Jiuliu, but he didn't understand anything.
Now the reason is that Ba Miao and Jiuliu are not insects or caterpillars, and Ten Hey will not work for them!
Combining many ideas and solving many riddles, he finally understood Shi He's identity. This is the worm of the five ancient insects!
However, every man is guilty of possessing a treasure. He understands this principle, so he shook his head flatly and said, "He is not a worm, he is just a strange snake. You see, if he is a worm, then if I have a worm, why would I be chased by someone? When I was fighting with Sanjianzizhai before, the scorpion they released also bit me!"
The gang said, "Yes, someone is chasing you, and the scorpion bites you, but what does this have to do with worms? They are not chasing worms, nor are they chasing worms, but dealing with you."
After hearing this, Wang Qilin knew that the locals did not know much about the five insects and were not clear about the fact that insects could penetrate into human bodies and give people some extraordinary abilities.
I didn't know that, but he didn't say much, but said to the guards: "No matter whether it is a worm or not, I don't want its existence to be exposed. Do you understand what I mean?"
The guard nodded calmly: "I am not a talkative person."
Wang Qilin patted his arm intimately and said, "Old man, now I know that you are the only one who loves me, and you only think he is a worm. So if there is news about him being a worm in the outside world, then I have to think that you spread the news randomly. Do you understand what I mean?"
The guards continued to nod: "I understand, if the relevant information is revealed, you will kill me."
"You still don't understand," Wang Qilin smiled, "I mean that if the news is revealed, I will work with Jiuli to eradicate your Dahei Cave!"
The guard stared at him and said, "In this way, there is one thing that I can't do."
Wang Qilin immediately said, "But as long as you keep this secret, I Guanfengwei will be a die-hard ally of your Dahei Cave. I dare to promise you that when I come to Shu County this time, I will obey Jiuli Cave!"
"Don't it be said that King Zhen is the backer of Jiulidong? Believe me, I will clean up their backer!"
The guards said, "Okay, I will tell you about this. I originally brought you up to fulfill Miao Songyun's promise to you and let your exiled dragon be reborn."
Wang Qilin asked in confusion: "Who is Miao Songyun? What is the exiled dragon?"
Jiaochang explained: "Miao Songyun is the celestial master of Sanjianzizhai. You don't know his name? As for the exiled dragon, it is another spiritual insect you raised, a big snake with scales on its head that can erect into a crown."
Wang Qilin suddenly realized: "It turns out that big snake is called the exiled dragon? But that big snake is not mine, it is Lord Xu's."
He finally understood the reason why the Lord Chang called him up the cliff: "You asked me to come up because you wanted to fulfill the promise of the old master and improve your cultivation for the exiled dragon? Then you called the wrong person!"
The guards looked down embarrassedly, and Xu Da looked up stupidly below, and the two of them met.
When the wind blew, his hair was messy.
Wang Qilin asked, "What method do you want to use to transform the exiled dragon?"
When Xiao Liaochang came back, he pointed to the exposed cave and said, "Below is the white coffin of Hongheizhang Village. The white coffin contains the essence of ten thousand poisons. You Han people call it the ten thousand poisons. We call it the ten thousand poisons. This thing is a highly poisonous thing for people and all animals, colorless and tasteless, and extremely terrifying."
"But it is a great tonic for snakes, and it is also a great tonic for insects."
Wang Qilin immediately put down the twelve hey who was ready to move: "Go to the hole, baby, go and make up for it."
Every time he gets a tonic, it’s his affairs with him. For example, yesterday, the lady Sui Sui caught another deer and got three deer pieces. Wang Qilin ate his waist, eight cats, and whipped a deer whip, nine li and ate the deer treasure. There was nothing to eat, so he just mixed a bite of deer blood.
Now Wang Qilin always feels that it is very weak when he sees Shi Hey, so today he has the opportunity and conditions to supplement, so he must make up for it.
Ten Hey jumped down.
Wang Qilin frowned and asked, "How did it come up? This stone cave looks very smooth."
The guards said expressionlessly: "I thought you would tie a fishing line on it, put it into the hole, and then pull the fishing line and then lift it up."
Wang Qilin suddenly realized a good idea.
Unfortunately, ten heys have already entered the hole in one shot.
But this does not mean that this method is useless. He is quite worried that something happened to Shihe, so he found a long rope, tied Ba Miao up, and said to Ba Miao: "You go down and see the situation. If Shihe encounters danger, you can save it."
Ba Miao looked at him in a daze: What's wrong with that baby?
Wang Qilin rubbed its little head and said, "Don't worry, isn't dad here? Dad will help you. Then Dad will cheer you on it, you have to hear it clearly."
Ba Meow turned around and ran away, and the wind blew into her feet.
Unfortunately, I was tied up with a rope and dragged back.
Wang Qilin said: "Old Ba, you can't do this. It's your little brother. Men must protect their little brother well. It may also be your sister. If it's your sister, your sister will transform in the future. Maybe she will turn into a white and tender little Xuan cat."
Bamao's eyes immediately widened and she smiled with a crooked mouth: It's amazing!
