Chapter 223 The Classic of Mountains and Seas (Thanks to Xia Liu and Pei Wan for the reward)
Wu Yu and Fei Yu didn't realize something was wrong until the energy in Wei Yuan's body rose.
They subconsciously raised their heads and looked up, and saw several auras approaching quickly from the northwest direction of Chaoge City. Soon, as sorcerers and warriors, they noticed the appearance of the visitor. From a human perspective,
Look, the appearance of the visitor is a bit strange.
Some have human faces but horse bodies.
Some have human faces and cow bodies.
Some have four legs and one arm.
When Wei Yuan saw the appearance of these 'people', he was even more sure of his speculation.
These are indeed the mountain gods in the Western Mountain Sutra. They are the original gods that possess animal nature, divinity, and human nature at the same time.
The mountain gods also noticed Wei Yuan, who also exuded the aura of a mountain god.
Noticed Fei Yu and Wu Yu.
They seemed to hesitate for a moment, looked at each other and discussed for a while, and then they all lost their divine forms and transformed into normal human beings. Some were beautiful women, some were kind old men, and some were burly and strong warriors.
On the top of the mountain, the leading old man smiled and nodded at Wei Yuan, and said proactively:
"We were talking, laughing and drinking on Chongwu Mountain, and I felt a familiar atmosphere here."
"So come and have a look."
"I never thought that a comrade like you would be born in this era."
The familiar aura he felt might not be a mountain god, but really an acquaintance. Wei Yuan answered silently in his heart without saying it out loud. Then, his expression remained unchanged, and he returned the greeting: "I didn't expect to see many of them."
Seeing that Wei Yuan's expression was peaceful and his attitude was polite, the eldest mountain god's expression seemed to soften even more. He nodded and said with a smile: "With fellow disciples giving birth to spiritual wisdom, our seventy-seven peaks in the Western Mountains will become seven."
There are eighteen peaks, which is a great thing, so of course you have to come and take a look."
"I don't know what you want to call me, but you gave yourself a name?"
Wei Yuan thought for a while and replied: "I am the spirit of Shangshan."
"As for the name."
His voice paused and he said:
"You can just call me Wei."
………………
Fei Yu and Wu Yu followed the instructions and went to get the wine and sacrificial meat.
When it is cooked and served, some of it is raw meat.
These are the Yuanchu Mountain Gods who were born in the Shanhai Age. Some only like raw meat for sacrifice. Wei Yuan used a knife to cut the meat, and then dipped it into Fei Yu. They used many wild vegetables and chicken to pound into mud, and put them together in a clay pot with salt.
When you put the marinated sauce in your mouth, it has a strong salty taste, but it no longer has the fishy taste created in the original era.
This is 醓醢.
The wine is mixed with wine, burned or roasted.
This means grilling the meat and eating it with sauce.
In such a difficult environment, delicious food is a rare treat.
The two mountain gods, who looked like strong men, did not have so many taboos and ate the raw meat.
The old man seemed to have been in contact with the human race. He took his face into consideration and was not so arrogant. He took a sip of the wine brewed in Chaoge City and sighed. Sure enough, the wine brewed by the human race was the best. Then he looked at Wei Yuan and said with a smile:
"It's a pity, Wei, that the time you were born was a little short. Otherwise, you would have experienced our best days."
"In that case, your name will also be recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas."
"Those human races are very wary of all beasts. They have marked all the dangerous beasts and written which beasts can be eaten. However, they are still respectful to us, the gods of the mountains. In the Book of Mountains and Seas, we provide sacrifices and hospitality.
Our methods have been recorded and passed down to future generations.”
A mountain god who looked like a strong man chewed up the food, but had different opinions.
He sneered and said: "Fart, it will be passed down to future generations."
"That guy King Yu, won't you and I be exiled here in the end? He said that the gods are not allowed to interfere in the human world. What's the use of him writing our sacrificial methods in detail? Except for the occasional souls from Youdu sneaking out.
, is there anyone else coming to worship us?"
"When I see him, I will definitely ask for an explanation!"
The old man sneered:
"Not convinced? Why do you still call him King Yu if you're not convinced?"
The strong man hesitated.
Immediately, he banged the table and said angrily: "I just called him King Yu. What's wrong? Are you not convinced?!"
"Even if he comes over, I will still call him King Yu, what?!"
"Even if he beats me to death, I will still scream like this. See if he dares to beat me to death!"
The pretty woman raised her hand to touch her forehead.
The old man's forehead had veins sticking out.
Seeing that these mountain gods were about to quarrel.
Wei Yuan took the opportunity to pour wine for the old man, interrupted the atmosphere, and asked: "The Classic of Mountains and Seas?"
The old man glanced at him, and his anger with the strong man subsided a little. He took a sip of wine and comforted him:
"Wei, you are a newly born mountain god. It is normal for you not to know the Classic of Mountains and Seas."
"Don't worry too much."
Wei Yuan nodded and said, "I really don't know."
"What's the point of this Classic of Mountains and Seas?"
The charming woman said:
"It's not a famous book, but it was written by King Yu, dictated by him, and recorded by his ministers in Fangfeng's Jade Book. Everything in the human world at that time was recorded.
There are thirty-six overseas countries, the sunless secluded capital, the gods of heaven and earth, and historical legends."
"Among them, exotic flowers, rare plants, ferocious beasts, gold and jade only occupy a small part."
"It's weighty enough."
"Not to mention, after the death of King Yu's ministers, King Yu himself recorded and supplemented this jade book, naming it the Book of Mountains and Seas, which means that everything between the mountains and the sea is included in it."
Wei Yuan took advantage of the situation and asked, "I wonder where this Classic of Mountains and Seas is now?"
The old man shook his head and sighed: "It's long gone. King Yu split the mountains and seas, and the Book of Mountains and Seas was also split. At the beginning, he gave back to us the jade books that recorded our respective souls.
It means that everything we do is for the human race, but we have no intention of exterminating all other races."
"Mountains, seas and the human world, strange animals and humans each occupy a part."
"What a pity, what a pity..."
The old man sighed, with a lonely expression, and said: "It's a pity that after this, there will never be an emperor like the three emperors and five emperors in the mountains and seas. I don't know what happened to China. In short, there were chaos among the various tribes in the mountains and seas. The jade left by King Yu
Books were the most fought over items, and in the end they were all gathered in two places."
Wei Yuan whispered:
"Two places?"
"Yes, part of it was plundered by Qiongqi in Mount Qiu, and the other part was controlled by the God of Zhongshan. Since then, the mountain and sea world, at least within the scope of the seventy-seven mountains of the West Meridian, has calmed down."
"Zhulong, Qiongqi."
Wei Yuan really didn't know what to say. He pressed his eyebrows and couldn't help but laugh at himself.
There's good news, and there's bad news.
The good news is that you don’t have to put in so much effort to collect the Jade Books on the Seventy-seven Mountains of the Western Mountains. Someone has already packed them for you. You just need to go and get them back.
Very simple, right?
The bad news is that one of these two guys is called Zhu Jiuyin.
One is Qiongqi.
He did not reveal his emotions, but smiled and greeted the mountain gods to drink and laugh. When the mountain gods left, the old man looked slightly drunk, patted Wei Yuan on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Wei,
You have to be prepared. After a while, a divine messenger should come to you."
"Angel of God?"
"Well, of course, since you are the mountain god here, of course you have to pay homage to the two great gods."
He burped and said: "The mountain god of Kunlun Qiu has a brilliant move."
"And, and..."
"The God of Zhongshan, Zhu Jiuyin."
………………
After a while, after tasting the delicacies of the human race for a long time, several mountain gods left drunkenly. Before leaving, they also took away several jars of wine and a roasted whole lamb. This level of skill made Wei Yuan
I wonder if they came here specifically to eat and drink, they are just too skilled.
He withdrew his gaze, looked at Fei Yu and Wu Yu next to him, thought for a while, and said: "During this period, just follow the route I mentioned before to hunt. By the way, there are also the mountains where the mountain gods were.
You can go there every once in a while, worship them according to the method I gave you, and remember to bring more wine."
"If you offer sacrifices before going into the mountains, that hunt will definitely bring a good harvest."
"But remember, restrain your greed."
Wei Yuan told the ancient rules and said: "The prey for hunting can satisfy the diet, and the fruit can only be taken twice as much as the amount consumed for brewing. In this case, if you go once a month, you will get something every time."
For the same or even more generous things, mountain gods are mostly rules-based gods, but they are most disgusted by greedy demands."
"People should learn to live with these gods. You don't want to see the wrath of the mountain gods."
Fei Yu and Wu Yu nodded to indicate that they had remembered it.
Wei Yuan thought for a while and said:
"I still have something to do. I will take you to Chongwu Mountain during the next sacrifice."
"Pick some of that fruit back."
I also want to visit my hometown.
As for going to see Zhulong, you can drag it off if you can. It's a pity. I don't know if I can bring my family with me.
When I go to find Qiongqi, it’s not too much to take a monkey with me, right?
Wei Yuan originally wanted to experience the cultivation methods handed down from the Yin and Shang Dynasties, but now that his spiritual power was being consumed so much, he felt tiredness rising in his heart. He looked at the Chongwu Mountain that he and Princess Yu had climbed, and finally sighed with regret.
, the body slowly dispersed.
……………………
Wei Yuan, who had just returned to the museum, still felt a little light-headed. Before his soul and body could fully integrate, he was directly disturbed by the ringing of his mobile phone and had a headache.
I turned on my phone and saw more than ten missed calls in a row.
The contact's avatar is a selfie of a black cat.
Zhang Ruosu.
The cell phone ringtone rang relentlessly.
Wei Yuan answered the phone and said: "Zhang..."
Before he could speak, a very high-pitched voice came from the opposite side, causing Wei Yuan to subconsciously block his ears with the fingers of one hand and hold the phone away from his eardrum with the other hand. On Longhu Mountain, the old Taoist priest almost slapped the table and shouted:
"My little Master Wei, where did you go to fish? Ah?!"
"If you don't come, that little brat..."
"Ahem, Master, Master, please pay attention to your image, how can you say dirty words..."
"Pay attention to something, okay, let go, you let go, old way."
Zhang Ruosu slapped the disciple away and shouted:
"Master of the Guard, if you don't come, that kid... the kid who lived a good life will have a bad head."
"Thought it was winter?!"
“It’s such a hot day, even lime can’t stop it!”
