Chronicles of Primordial Wars

Seeing Gui Ze come in, the child in the stone jar grinned at Gui Ze, but because of the festering face, he looked even more frightening than the tribal people laughing, but those eyes were still crystal clear. Bright, like sunlight reflecting off a sparkling sea.

As for Shao Xuan, he was reduced to a background board, the kid named Diandian just swept over him at will, and didn't look at it again, with the same attitude as everyone else.

"How do you feel today?" Gui Ze went over to take a closer look at the situation in the stone jar.

"Much better!"

The tender voice has not changed because of her illness. If she just listened to her voice, she would never have thought that her condition was so serious.

He Bian and others, who were standing by the side, looked at Gui Ze nervously. When the child looked down at the fish in the stone tank, Gui Ze shook his head towards He Bian and the others.

The expectant eyes of He Bian and others suddenly dimmed, full of disappointment and even more grief. Wu asked them to come here to find a solution, but if they can't cure this disease, where should they go to find the answer? Or, the place Wu said was not actually here, but other places further upstream of the Yan River?

I heard that the stone bridge in Yanjiao was only built after it was moved here, not the original existence on the Yanhe River. If there is no such stone bridge, they will not be stopped, and this is not the end.

In the past two days, I have also discussed privately with the Dishan people who have come here, and there is still no conclusion about whether to leave or stay. Some people say that this is definitely not a place where witches say, they can't waste time here, they should continue to swim. But the other half felt that it was here. After all, the people from Yanjiao also said that there would be fewer tribes in the upper reaches. Moreover, only Yanjiao was the most powerful nearby.

He Bian is very irritable, he can't decide, after all, no matter which one he chooses, if he chooses the wrong one. There is no chance for them to regret it, and it may even usher in the situation of Dishan's genocide.

Maybe, should I ask something?

He Bian looked over to the stone tank, and Dian Dian was still teasing the three fish in the stone tank. From time to time, I will answer Gui Ze's questions.

Although Ditty said she was much better, it was only compared to the feeling of tormenting in seashells during a long journey. The ability to move freely in a stone jar was of course much better than when she was in a seashell. But if you look at her condition. It will be found that the festering situation is more serious than when it just came out of the shell.

Shao Xuan squatted down, making his eyes level with the people inside, "I have a few questions to ask."

After finishing speaking, Shao Xuan looked at He Bian and the others at the door,

Dozens of pairs of eyes stared at Shao Xuan with deep guard. They could allow Gui Ze, the witch and Dian Dian, to talk alone, but they would not allow other people to do this, let alone. Shao Xuan is still a man, who knows what will happen if he is left here?

Shao Xuan is not in a hurry, waiting for the person in the stone jar to decide, he knows that this child actually knows everything.

Dian Dian in the stone jar slowed down and lowered his head, as if he was thinking seriously. After a while, he looked up at He Bian and others, "He Bian stay. The others go out."

Calling He Bian by his name didn't show any respect for the leader from other tribesmen. People in Dishan didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with this, but one could imagine the child's status in Dishan. Even if it is only the scheduled next witch, even if she is seriously ill now, it will not affect her status.

He Bian wanted to persuade again, but he also knew that once the people in the stone jar made a decision, it would be difficult to change it, so he could only wave his hand. Signal others to go out and stay away, don't even think about eavesdropping.

After there were only four people left in the room, He Bian pulled the doors and windows together. When Yanjiao built the house, the wood used was relatively soundproof. For this reason, they compared many kinds of wood, and finally settled on one, which is also It is a wood that grows in the mountains and is commonly used to build houses in Yanjiao today.

The noise outside suddenly faded, and the room fell silent.

"Did a little, you have two kinds of totem powers in your body, that's why you're sick, which also means that your Dishan tribe has two kinds of fire."

In the quiet room, Shao Xuan's calm words were like a thunderbolt, and He Bian froze there.

After regaining his senses, He Bian couldn't help but refute, "How could there be two sparks?! You are talking nonsense!"

When Shao Xuan was looking for him alone before, he also asked such a question, but He Bian thought it was absurd, he had no common sense, and it was just nonsense, but now...

After He Bian finished shouting, he found that Diandian in the stone jar was still silent and did not refute.

He glanced back and forth at the person in the stone jar, as well as Shao Xuan and Gui Ze. He Bian's mouth grew wider and wider, and the shock on his face was undisguised.

Seeing that the people in the stone jar were silent, Shao Xuan continued. "Another kind of fire, is it Diyu?"

Over there, He Bian, who was already standing there in shock, jumped up again at this news, but this time he didn't shout again, but looked at the person in the stone jar for the first time.

The person in the stone jar only looked up at Shao Xuan at this time, with surprise in his eyes, she did not expect that Shao Xuan would know this.

Silence, but did not refute.

"It turned out to be...really?!" He Bian shook his lips, and his tanned face turned ashen. Although he knew some things that others didn't know, he also had great feelings for Diyu. Complicated, but never thought it would be like this.

Does Diyu have tinder? !

How did they never notice?

Where is the tinder? !

Incredible, completely beyond their previous understanding.

Shao Xuan told Gui Ze about this guess before he came, and Gui Ze was also shocked for a long time. Now, seeing the little reaction, it confirmed that Shao Xuan's guess was true.

DiDian looked at the water in the stone tank again, and stretched out his hand to the fish in the tank, "A long time ago, with the help of Diyu, the ancestors of Dishan came to Dishan to establish the Dishan tribe, and at the same time put the Diyu As a gift from the gods, the descendants of Dishan should also treat them with the same clan. If any people from Dishan die, the ancestors will hand them over to Diyu. The ancestors said that Diyu will take the people to a better place. ."

Yes, this is a story passed down by Dishan from generation to generation. He Bian was also brainwashed by this story since he was a child. They never doubted anything, because Diyu would indeed help them. Bring fish back from the sea and throw them ashore. If Dishan people encounter danger in the sea, Diyu will also help. And Dishan people will also help Diyu when Diyu is in trouble. Dishan people will try their best to help them.

This approach looks like a symbiosis of mutual benefit.

However, after He Bian took over as the leader, he saw different ideas from the notes of the previous leaders, and most of them were left over in the past few hundred years. Views vary. But to sum it up in one sentence, guard against Diyu, otherwise the Dishan tribe may be wiped out.

In fact, the tribe had a similar condition a long time ago. Perhaps it was at that time that the ancestors of Dishan noticed something was wrong. It's just that the only person who knows the key is Wu. He Bian didn't know why Wu kept hiding it, maybe it was because of doubts, he felt that this kind of thinking was disrespectful, or maybe there were other reasons.

After all, the leader is not a witch. In the Dishan tribe, what a leader like He Bian can understand is still too limited to know the truth.

Now, more and more people are sick. But most Dishan people did not link this to Diyu. But now, what did this Great Elder Yanjiao say?

Did Diyu actually cause their tribe to get this strange disease? !

The people in the stone jar did not look at the reaction of the other three people in the house, and while teasing the three fish in the water, they continued: "Seven hundred years ago, the first sick person of the Dishan tribe appeared and could not be cured. I jumped into the sea where Di Yu lived, but was pushed ashore by Di Yu. According to the records of the ancestors, Di Yu was surrounded by a group of Di Yu. After pushing him ashore, he did not leave for a long time. After his death, Di Yu took him into the sea."

He Bian's eyelids jumped twice. He had heard those stories, and every time his elders and the people around him told this story, they also said with gratitude that Diyu really protected them, and even when they were sick and couldn't see their personality, they were unwilling to tell the story. They brought them into the sea, and Di Yu confronted Di Shanren. It was really good.

But now, when I listen to Xiaodian, there is always a kind of creepy feeling, and He Bian felt a chill down his spine. The bad premonition intensified.

"After that, every few decades, the tribe would have such diseases again, and they were all children who had just awakened to the power of the totem. , the time interval between the onset of the disease is getting closer and closer, and more and more people are sick, until this time, reaching the peak, Wu said, the Diyu has already begun to move, and their fire is strong enough..."

"Why don't you kill them when you know the reason?! Kill them!" He Bian was excited, the muscles on his face trembled, his eyes were fierce and crazy, and his expression became hideous.

"It's too late, the two kinds of fire are already very difficult to separate. If you act rashly, it may trigger a frantic counterattack from Di Yu. After all, Di Yu can go ashore, and, under a direct battle, Di Shan's fire will also It will be seriously damaged. Before coming out this time, Wu said, there is not enough time, either win or die, but before the end, Wu hopes to have other solutions." The man in the stone jar stared down fish inside.

He Bian thought of the ancestors of Dishan. They listened to the words passed down by their ancestors and accepted the indoctrination since they were young. Even the witches, not everyone has the same idea. Hesitating, wasting time, and when the real decision is made, it is already too late.

"For nearly a hundred years, the Wu of Dishan has been looking for a solution, but still to no avail. This time, Wu said that he finally found a solution, which is to follow the great river near the tribe that connects with the sea and go up until it can't be done. Forward."

Said and looked at He Bian, "Do you know how Dishan's totem came from?"

He Bian shook his head with a face that was almost collapsed.

Dian Dian looked at Shao Xuan and the two again, "Borrow a pen to use it."

Shao Xuan took out the brush he had been carrying and a blank cloth. The pen holder had already been filled with paint, which was made by Shao Xuan, and he could write directly by pulling the cap off.

After looking at the pen in his hand, he leaned on the stone jar and asked He Bian to hold the cloth.

"At the beginning of Dishan's establishment, the totem was like this." He drew a strange face on the palm of He Bian's left hand, but it was different from the "囧" with glasses that Shao Xuan saw.

As he continued to draw, Shao Xuan also discovered more different places. The fins and tails around the face were much smaller in proportion.

After finishing the painting, DianDian continued to paint on the palm of He Bian's right hand: "Now, the totem of Dishan looks like this."

The second painting is similar to He Bian's painting, which Shao Xuan also saw on the big shell. The proportion of the human face is smaller, there are more lines on the face, and it is more strange, the proportion of fins and tails is larger, and the other side of the human face seems to have a few more strokes.

If there is no first picture, it is difficult to find something wrong in the second picture, and every generation of Dishan people know totems, most of the time they see them in sacrificial ceremonies or in the fire pit, and they think that is what they need to keep in mind. , people who remember wrong will correct it.

He didn't stop there, he pulled the puppet and continued to paint after the second one, "If it continues like this, the totem in the future will be like this."

He Bian's hands trembled even more as the third picture was drawn with one stroke.

I saw that on the third totem painting, the proportion of the human face was not much different from the second one. However, on the other side of the human face, Shao Xuan felt that there were a few more strokes, and now he has finally completed it.

That's a fish mouth.

One side of the human face is a fish tail, and the other side is a fish mouth. It looks like it has swallowed the human face.

"The totem of the Dishan tribe has changed from a 'joint' style to a 'swallow' style!"

He Bian, who was holding the cloth, looked even more ugly at this time. Drops of sweat fell from his forehead, and his voice was trembling, "They... are swallowing the fire of Dishan!" (To be continued.)
