Qiankun Fantasy Sword Record

The ancestors of the Li people, the Baiyue people, are said to be a branch of the Chiyou tribe in the ancient Yan Emperor's time. Because of their frequent rebellions, the Chiyou tribe was annexed and dispersed by the Yellow Emperor and even later emperors. They had to gradually move south to hide in the mountains. So much so that one of them

The Baiyue people were supported, and the population decreased significantly.

As a result, some people came to Qiongzhou by boat from Guangdong, Guangdong and northern Vietnam, and became one of the earliest residents of Qiongzhou. These are the ancestors of the Li people.

During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Li people in the Guangdong and Guangxi areas of the mainland, namely the ancient Luoyue people, another branch of the Chiyou tribe, followed their leader, Mrs. Xian, and migrated to Qiongzhou on a large scale. It was not until the Song Dynasty that they were collectively called the Li people.

After the ancestors of the Li people landed in Qiongzhou, they trekked all the way inland in the hope of finding a place with lush water and grass suitable for the life of the people. After nearly a year of wandering, when everyone could no longer bear it and began to have conflicts with each other, they finally arrived

At the foot of Baisong Ridge.

The name Baisongling was also given by them.

The ancestors of the Li people discovered that there is a very vast valley at the foot of Baisong Ridge, where there is spring all year round, lush trees, abundant water, and fertile land, which is very suitable for the life of the people.

So they decided to settle down here.

But when they just started building houses and reclaiming wasteland, something horrifying happened.

Some tribesmen died for no reason, and some suffered from strange and serious illnesses.

Some houses were only half-built and were completely demolished the next day.

Even half of the land that had just been reclaimed was found to have turned into wasteland again the next day.

After countless such strange events happened in succession, a wizard among the ancestors of the Li people said that he discovered that there seemed to be gods and monsters moving around on the peak of Baisongling.

So, everyone sent the wizard to lead dozens of people to climb to the top of Baisongling Peak. They found a huge stone cave inside, and there was a huge stone statue in the cave. The wizard found an iron coupon under the stone statue. After the wizard went back,

After all the hard work, I finally got the oracle.

The wizard said that the valley they lived in now belonged to the territory of the god in the cave at the top of the mountain, and those horrific incidents were his warnings. If the ancestors of the Li people wanted to live and work in peace and contentment here, they must worship him as their main god, and every year in the future

A young girl from the clan must be selected as a saint to serve the gods. When the time comes, the saint must be sent to the stone statue in the cave at the top of the mountain. She will bless the ancestors of the Li people and their descendants for generations to come.

The ancestors of the Li people no longer wanted to wander, so they followed the oracles of the gods and truly settled here. After that, the gods used the mouth of the wizard to issue some oracles. Naturally, everyone of the ancestors of the Li people obeyed them and did not dare to go beyond them. Later, it was true that

Those bizarre and horrific incidents no longer happened.

From then on, Baisongling was called a holy mountain by the Li people. The cave at the top was called the altar. A thirty-mile radius from the peak to the mountainside became a restricted area for the entire tribe, and was guarded by dedicated personnel, who later became known as the Holy Mountain Guards.

The wizard who could communicate with the gods was also named the Great Wizard by the entire clan.

When Wen Zijun heard Wang Luo tell the secrets of the ancestors of the Li people, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. When it comes to ghosts and gods, Wen Zijun takes a moderate approach. Naturally, he has never seen any ghosts, gods, foxes, and monsters with his own eyes, but people in the world have believed in them since ancient times.

, maybe it has its mysterious side.

As the sun sets in the west, the golden afterglow shines on the top of the Holy Mountain, which looks particularly bright and clear. There is no cloud in the sky, and a few goshawks are still soaring in the sky.

Wen Zijun saw Sai Shi rushing to the front of the team, turned around a white pine forest, and arrived at the edge of the restricted area of ​​the Holy Mountain. There were still a hundred Holy Mountain guards stationed there. When he saw the captain and the clan leader coming, they all came out to greet them.

Sai Shi told these guards about the situation of Elder Ou Xi at the foot of the mountain colluding with outsiders to usurp the position of clan leader. It was up to them to decide whether to stay or go. After a short discussion, all one hundred guards decided to follow the clan leader and Sai Shi. They were originally Sai Shi.

His subordinates, plus they had always had some opinions about Elder Ou Xi, naturally refused to go down the mountain.

A few people questioned whether Wen Zijun, the three Han Chinese, could go to the Holy Mountain. Wang Luo and Sai Shi argued hard, and with the pursuit of troops approaching, they said nothing more.

Before entering the holy mountain, Sai Shi sent all the young and strong men out to hunt the wild beasts nearby, while the female tribe members picked wild fruits and dug edible food such as skullcap. When Wen Zijun saw it, he was deeply concerned about Sai Shi's thoughtfulness.

Feel admired.

As soon as we entered the restricted area of ​​the Holy Mountain, everything we could see was gray-white rocks. There were no tall white pines, no low shrubs, and not even an inch of grass. At the foot of those rocks, there were some fragments growing here and there.

Lichens. Lichens are almost gray in color. If you don't look carefully, you can easily miss them.

The winding mountain road is paved with gravel, leading to the top of the mountain. There are also fine lichen on the gravel, indicating that few people walk on this gravel road. In fact, in addition to sending the saint up the mountain every year, basically

No one wants to go to the top of the mountain anymore. Unless something happens that affects the whole clan, such as drought, flood, insect plague, or a good harvest, a new clan leader succeeds to the throne, etc., the great wizard will take the clan leader and elders to the Holy Mountain.

The mountain prays for blessings and wishes to be returned to God.

On both sides of the gravel road, there are some piles of stones from time to time, about a person high and nine feet square. Below are large stones, and gradually smaller and smaller stones are piled up, forming a small rock mountain.

At the top of the stone pile is a flat stone slab one foot square. On some of them there is a pair of cow or sheep horns that are still connected, with the two sharp horns pointing diagonally towards the sky; on some of them there is the skull of a cow or sheep with empty eyes.

The trough is still facing the white clouds, hunting goshawks.

If the sharp horns or skulls of cattle and sheep are abandoned in the mountains, they may give people a gloomy feeling. But on the Li people's sacred mountain, which is full of rocks, they appear so abrupt and give people a solemn feeling.

A feeling of desolation. What they bring to people is not the fear of death, but the awe of life.

Wen Zijun discovered that as hundreds of them gradually walked up the gravel road, the fear, murderous intent, sadness, anger, exhaustion, and even the smiles between each other had all disappeared.

All of them have solemn and peaceful faces. They are not walking on a dead end, but on a pilgrimage.

The pursuers behind seemed to have disappeared, and no one was running wildly on this gravel road.

I don’t know how long it took, it seemed like thousands of years had passed, and it seemed like a moment passed by in the blink of an eye. Wen Zijun realized that they had reached the top of the mountain.

Wen Zijun and the others were standing in a huge square, all paved with huge stones. In front of him was the peak that jutted straight into the sky. Walking forward from the huge stone square and climbing up the six stone steps, you will find the entrance to the Li altar. The entrance is surrounded by

They are all re-inlaid with large square stones, making them look majestic.

The main door of the altar faces north and south, facing the gravel road from which it came. There was nothing on the east and west sides. Wen Zijun walked to the east and found that there was a cliff below. Looking out, white clouds and goshawks were under his feet, not to mention

Let’s talk about those countless mountains in the distance.

"When you are at the top of the mountain, you can see all the mountains and small mountains at a glance." The poet Du Fu once imagined the scenery he would see when he climbed to the top of the mountain, but unfortunately he never experienced it. But Wen Zijun now truly feels "seeing all the small mountains and small mountains at a glance"

The kind of shock it gives people.

While Wen Zijun was looking around the mountains, Wang Luo and others started to quarrel with other tribesmen over whether the Han people could enter the altar.

Long Liu and Long Qi came over to report to Wen Zijun about the quarrel between Wang Luo and the others. After hearing this, Wen Zijun smiled slightly and asked Long Liu to invite Wang Luo over.

When Wang Luo saw Long Liu calling him, he glanced at Wen Zijun. Then he walked up to Wen Zijun with an indignant look and said, "They are all old antiques that have not changed from the past. You Han people have a famous saying, 'Follow the authority in urgent matters', which is very

Naturally, times should have rules for dealing with extraordinary times. Could it be said that those dead men in black would stop chasing us because this is a restricted area for our clan? Wouldn’t they attack the altar when they get here? Don’t think about it, they can

Whose credit is it that we are here safely?"

Wen Zijun was not angry at all. He patted Wang Luo on the shoulder and said, "Wang Luo, you can't blame them. For your people, the altar is a higher existence than life. Of course they don't want to desecrate it.

The holy place in our hearts. We three brothers can understand it. We can just stay outside." He pointed around and continued: "Look, what a vast and magnificent scenery you can see from here?"

Wang Luo looked ashamed and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Wen Zijun. Wen Zijun smiled and said: "Wang Luo, you don't have to feel bad. If you really feel guilty, won't it be okay if you come out to accompany us later? You

What do you say?"

Wang Luo was not that kind of rigid person. After hearing Wen Zijun's words, his frown suddenly relaxed and he smiled: "That's it."

Wang Luo walked up to the tribesmen and spoke for a while. The tribesmen all looked at the three Han Chinese, Wen Zijun, and entered the altar one after another in silence.

Fu Liang led the pursuers to the edge of the restricted area of ​​the Holy Mountain, and he asked the team to stop.

Miao Fengquan stepped forward to ask the reason, and Fu Liang said: "The front is a restricted area in our clan. No one is allowed to set foot without permission."

Miao Fengquan said, "Didn't Wang Jianyue and the others go up?"

Fuliang replied: "He is the leader of the clan, so he naturally has the right. Also, the great wizard has this right. I will immediately send someone down the mountain to ask the great wizard for instructions."

Miao Fengquan said again: "Wouldn't it be a waste of time to go back and forth?"

Fu Liang pointed to the gravel road and said with a smile: "There is only one way up and down the mountain. Even if we don't go up there for a month, they will still stay up there. As long as we guard this road, they will have trouble flying."

What's more, they fled to the Holy Mountain in a hurry, and they may not even be able to get food. If we rush up now, we will only make them fight with each other, which will be detrimental to us."

After hearing this, Miao Fengquan's eyes lit up and she said with a smile: "That's right, that's right. That's it. I'll tell them to take a good rest here."

Unexpectedly, when the people sent by Fu Liang came to Elder Ou Xi to talk about it, Elder Ou Xi was furious and cursed: "What a stone-headed man. He doesn't know the principle of obeying authority in emergencies!" Then he sent people to find the great wizard Yuzhen.

Wen Zijun was still outside looking at the scenery, looking at the clouds rolling and relaxing under his feet. He recalled Wang Wei's poem from the Tang Dynasty: "Walking to a waterless place, sit and watch the clouds rise."

Even if life reaches a desperate situation, there is no need to be downcast and you can face it with a calm and calm mind.

Just when Wen Zijun was lost in thought, he heard several exclamations from the altar, and then a burst of noise. Wen Zijun came back to his senses, walked quickly to the stone steps at the door of the altar, and shouted inside: "Wang

Luo, Sai Shi, what happened?"

After a while, the noise inside gradually subsided, and Wang Luo and Sai Shi both came out, with very ugly expressions on their faces.

Wen Zijun asked: "What happened?"

Wang Luo and Sai Shi looked at each other and sighed: "Our family treasure is missing."

Wen Zijun was puzzled and repeated: "The treasure of the clan?"

Sai Shi continued: "It's the iron coupon that our ancestors found in this cave. It later became a treasure of the town and has been enshrined at the foot of the statue of the altar. We just entered the altar and wanted to go first.

I paid my respects to the gods, but found that the iron coupon was missing."

After hearing this, Wen Zijun asked: "In addition to being a memorial to your clan, does this iron coupon have other functions?"

Wang Luo responded: "To foreigners, this iron coupon is indeed worthless. But to our tribe, it is a sacred symbol that cannot be desecrated. In addition, it also has an extremely important function.

, it is the military symbol of our clan."

After hearing this, Wen Zijun was puzzled and said: "Military Talisman? Do you still have an army?"

Sai Shi continued: "Of course, if you think about it, our Li people have lived and multiplied in Qiongzhou for hundreds of years. How can we have only such a small population? The holy mountain here and the valley under the mountain are the earliest place where the whole people stopped.

Later, as the population continued to expand, we had to move our tribesmen outside. Now, in addition to Baisha, there are also our tribesmen in Changjiang and Qiongzhong."

Wang Luo continued: "As more and more people joined Qiongzhou, the security of Qiongzhou became extremely chaotic. In order to protect ourselves, we formed an army. Of course, our army cannot compare with your Han people. Later, we formed an army.

After Qiongzhou was ruled by the Han people, the public security improved a lot. So our army was divided into three groups and stationed in Changjiang, Baisha and Qiongzhong. However, without this iron bond, no one can mobilize them."

Wen Zijun asked again: "Then, who can climb the Holy Mountain?"

Sai Shi replied: "We have asked the guards who stayed on the Holy Mountain, and they all said that they have not seen anyone going to the Holy Mountain."

Wen Zijun thought deeply: "This is strange. Since it didn't come up, how could the iron coupon be missing? Could it be..."

Wang Luo's expression changed and he said, "You mean the gods? This, this is impossible!"

Wen Zijun said in a deep voice: "Besides, no one came up. Could it be those flying eagles?"

"Ah——" Just at this moment, another scream came from the altar!
