It was not Zhang Yu’s first time to come to the Anshan Mountains, but at that time his teacher led him to enter through the river pass in the north. Five years later, he returned to the Duhufu from the lower reaches of the Dan River, and basically stayed in the Anshan Mountains.
Traveling eastward, I have never been to the western foothills of Anshan.
The situation here is very different from that in the east, both in terms of climate and geographical conditions.
However, the west of Anshan is considered to be within the territory of the Protectorate. Although there are still endless wild beasts and strange monsters, as well as indigenous barbarians of unknown origins wandering around, it is much safer than the east side.
As he gradually moved towards the higher reaches of the mountain, his breathing also felt a little sluggish. After a slight adjustment, this feeling quickly subsided, and there was no more discomfort after that.
However, the horse seemed to become a little sluggish after sitting down. He specially fed some crushed pills, let go of the reins and let it go on its own, and then slowly recovered.
After another two days of trekking, he led his horse and walked along a ridge. The Goddess Peak in the distance still stood there, seemingly not shrinking at all.
Looking at the majestic and solitary figure, he couldn't help but think about it. I believe that very few people have seen the Tianxia Beacon Tower on the Goddess Peak, but in a sense, it can be regarded as the spirit of the Protectorate.
Symbolized.
But Zang Shu said that some people wanted to tear it down and cut off the connection between the Protectorate and the Tianxia mainland. This may indeed represent the thoughts of some people.
During the war sixty years ago, the upper echelons of the Protectorate had undergone major changes, and power had been redistributed. However, this was not in line with Tianxia's etiquette. When Tianxia returned, they would definitely worry about being liquidated.
And the Shenwei Army would definitely not want to see Tian Xia return, because that would mean that they would once again become slaves of the Xuan Palace.
Those heathen believers are naturally unwilling. If Tianxia comes, no matter what gods you are, they will be suppressed again.
Obviously, those who are struggling to maintain the name and old rules of the Protectorate should be the orthodox faction headed by Xuanfu and Taiyang Academy.
Although Zhang Yu did not agree with some of the actions of the Academy and the Xuan Palace, in fact, the existence of the Xuan Palace itself did maintain the stability of the Protectorate.
Compared to those monks and cultists who practice Hunzhang, what Xuanfu does is at least stand on the side of thousands of people, whether it is opening kindergartens or going around to protect the people within the territory of the Protectorate.
Safety and danger are all like this.
It can be said that those monks who practice Hun Zhang are not even as good as the Divine Lieutenant Army. Even though the Divine Lieutenant Army is arrogant, under the current constraints of the Protectorate, they have at least contributed to maintaining the order of the Protectorate.
If the Protectorate is separated from Tianxia, whether the alien cultists gain power or the monks who practice Hunzhang gain power, Xuanfu will be the target of their eradication. Not only will the people suffer at that time, but he will also lose the ability to learn from higher-level officials.
The way of Tao Zhang.
Therefore, no matter what, he must try to stop this generation.
But to do this, he needs stronger strength and higher status.
At this time, he climbed over another ridge and looked at the rolling mountains in the distance. A thick layer of dark clouds fell on the blue-gray mountain surface, and the velvet of golden grass covered the original brown soil slope.
There is a thin layer of lichen, and on the clear blue sky wall, there are eagles hovering.
While he was watching, the horse suddenly took a few steps and came closer to him. After thinking about it, he took out a handful of secret bean feed from the feed bag and fed it to the horse.
After feeding, when I was about to take a step, I suddenly felt something strange in my heart. I turned my head to look, but there was nothing behind me. I turned my eyes and saw a sharp-horned goat jumping on the cliff opposite.
From time to time, she would look back at him.
His heart moved slightly, he changed his mind, and continued to lead the horse forward as if nothing had happened.
And not long after he left, a small figure poked its head out from behind a stone and looked at him, then quickly ran away and disappeared again.
Zhang Yu stopped and walked, and from time to time he would walk around and observe. He found that as he gradually penetrated into the mountain plain, he could occasionally pick up some stones that had been obviously polished manually. He thought to himself: "It seems that this road
correct."
After walking slowly for another half day, he climbed over a high slope again. A lake appeared in front of him, but the water was turbid. In the rock holes inside, boiling water was boiling, and steaming heat continued to float across the lake.
.
His eyes lit up, and after looking around, he walked towards the narrower upper end of the lake. He soon saw some broken steps, half-buried stone tablets, and pottery fragments that looked like tributes.
He walked up to the stone tablet, stretched out his hand and rubbed it gently. The originally hard stone looked very corroded, but there were still a lot of deeply carved writings on it. After trying to decipher it, he became very excited.
Zhen, raised his head and looked around, saying: "That's right, this should be the legendary 'Raging Spring'."
In his opinion, the "Raging Spring" is actually a geothermal spring. The ancient indigenous people believed that it was caused by the anger of the gods. Of course, in an era when the land was full of gods, this may be true.
There is such a record in the documents he looked through. On the way to the altar to worship, if there are people who bathe in the angry spring without death or injury, they are truly devout people, and they can become gods.
Guards, and allowed to pass on their bloodline.
Although this has attracted countless warriors to try, there are always a few lucky ones. There are countless corpses of people who want to become heroes piled under this angry spring.
And finding this place means you are on the right path to the altar.
He looked up and saw a snow-covered peak in front of him. If he was correct, his target should be under the peak.
Since it was relatively warm here, there was water, and the terrain was very flat. In addition, he had only been busy traveling these past few days without regulating his breath and Qi, so he decided to stay here for one night to recover and go there tomorrow.
He searched around and found a high ground. Fortunately, there was a relatively complete stone platform here, and the field of view was very broad. He could clearly see everything going on down the mountain.
So he chose to sit down here, put Xia Jian across his knees, took out Yuanyuan Dan and took one, exhaled it with a deep breath, and soon fell into tranquility.
After successfully adjusting his breath overnight, he felt that his mental and physical strength had returned to a perfect state. Perhaps it was due to the battle he had experienced in the past few days, and even his divine energy had faintly increased.
He stood up, washed and tidied up, and then started on the road again.
But then, I wandered around this mountain plain for two days, but found nothing.
On the third day, he walked up to a high peak. While he was watching, something bright seemed to flash in his eyes. He realized that it was the reflection of a metal object. He immediately looked towards it, and sure enough, in his sight,
A piece of dilapidated ruins appeared, but most of them were buried in the soil and piles of rocks, making it difficult to distinguish some.
He exhaled.
found it!
After taking note of the location, he descended from the peak. Half a day later, he arrived at the ruins. But once he got here, the horses refused to move forward no matter what.
So he let it go and walked in alone.
As soon as I set foot on this ruins, I could faintly smell the smell of blood.
He didn't feel strange, but instead felt even more excited, because this was the remnant after a large number of spiritual monsters died, which just showed that the place he was looking for was correct.
He was walking here alone, surrounded by collapsed buildings, all in the style of the Idi Omezo period.
In fact, before the arrival of the Yidi people, this place had always been a place where the indigenous people on this continent worshiped many gods and built magnificent temples. Every year, a large number of spiritual creatures were killed on the altar here for use.
Sacrifice to the gods.
It was not until the Yidi people came that they tore down the temple and buried it, killed the sacrifices, imprisoned and suppressed the alien gods, and built a temple belonging to the Yidi people on it. This move also triggered the subsequent divine war.
important reason.
After the Yidi people were destroyed, their temple also collapsed in the earthquake that destroyed the island. Since then, except for some oral legends, there are no records about this place.
Zhang Yu also saw some ancient bark books among the tribes east of Anshan and was able to know the location. However, the specific location was roughly determined after reading a large number of documents in Xuanwentang.
The deeper he walked into the ruins here, the stronger the smell of blood he could smell, but this also provided him with a clear location in disguise. But at this time, he seemed to have a feeling that there seemed to be figures hiding behind these buildings.
There, he was peering at himself with malicious intent.
He turned the seal of "Zha Sheng" to straighten his mind and suppressed these negative thoughts. As he continued to walk in, when he reached a tall slope, a familiar heat rushed over him!
