"You don't have to be so nervous. I'm asking you this question just to make sure you took that thing away.
When he came to help us solve the problem, he had already made it clear that this method would only treat the symptoms but not the root cause and would become ineffective after more than 20 years.
I didn't understand it at the time, but looking at the stars at night in the past few days and seeing the reactions from Shiwandashan, I finally understood what he meant by those words. ”
After saying these words, the great elder stopped and took two sips of tea.
After a while, the great elder spoke again.
"Young man, you are able to take the mountain-holding stone from under the Millennium Cold Water Pond. That is your skill, and it is also what we, the Wu Clan, owe you. If you take it away, none of us Wu Clan dares to say no.< br>
It is precisely because we know that we, the Wu clan, can't handle this matter, so the village chief is not willing to come out to see you today. ”
After hearing these words, Zhang Hao and Master Jingci nodded at the same time, finally understanding why the village chief's tone was so unkind.
However, before Zhang Hao could recover, what the Great Elder said next was truly shocking.
"Young man, I wonder if you have noticed that the energy in the Hundred Thousand Mountains has not actually passed away.
They all stayed in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, but this energy was not used to nourish the Hundred Thousand Mountains, but all became violent and raging.
If you are coming from the Hakka side, you should pass by a swamp. The swamp was originally just an ordinary swamp. Although it contained some miasma, it was never enough to kill people.
But in the past twenty years, the energy in the Hundred Thousand Mountains has been raging within its scope, flowing through various scenic spots. The swamp was originally a check-in place, but now it is just a place that people avoid. It is a famous and evil place like snakes and scorpions.
You are a mountain walker, so you should be able to tell what happened in that swamp.
Over the years, many people from the Wu tribe and outsiders have died in these mountains. Their bones are buried in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Their Qi is forever locked in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, and these Qi are what form those evil spirits. fundamental.
Originally, with the gentle energy of Shiwandashan, coupled with the unique stars above, these qi would lie peacefully in Shiwandashan forever. However, the energy flowing out of Shiwandashan in the past twenty years has continued to circulate around it. The raging raging caused these vicious places to be formed.
Zhang Daoxian had already seen this when he came to Shiwandashan to help us suppress these violent energies, but he had other things to do at that time, so he left hastily after using the mountain-suppressing stone to suppress the energy here.
In the past twenty years, we have followed the clues left by Zhang Daoxian and have been groping in Shiwandashan. Until today, we have some clues but don't know how to solve it.
Young man, are you willing to help us Wu tribe people survive this disaster? ”
After going around in a long circle, the great elder finally stated his intention or the village chief's intention.
"Great Elder, since you already know the reason why Shiwandashan became what it is now, and you have some ideas about the solution, why don't you follow the clues to find out, and then completely solve this matter?
< br>
Our lineage of mountain walkers has indeed made great achievements in Feng Shui physiognomy, but compared to your ancient witchcraft that has been passed down for thousands of years, I'm afraid it's not that great. "Zhang Hao smiled slightly.
Just now, the great elder was talking about this and that, while Xiaozhi was using his emotions to reason, and at the same time he was pulling out his uncle to play the emotional card. Zhang Hao almost got involved, but fortunately he finally reacted Coming over
Seeing Zhang Hao ask this key question, the elder did not feel embarrassed and directly told them the nonsense they had committed back then.
"Young man, this matter can be solved by your lineage of mountaineers, it can be solved by the master from Longhu Mountain next to you, and it can also be solved by those people from the Ma family in the northeast, but it cannot be solved by us Wu clan people. .
Speaking of which, Shiwandashan has become what it is today, and it has something to do with us, the Wu tribe.
The only thing we Wu Clan can do now is to use the altar to convey our faith and goodwill, so that the raging energy in the Hundred Thousand Mountains can be calmed down a little.
For thousands of years. We Wu people have been living in the mountains for generations, relying on mountains and water. Basically no one from the Wu tribe leaves this place. Whether they live or die, they all live in this geomantic treasure land.
But the problem is that our Wu clan is not a unified tribe. Our Wu clan is also called Jiuli, which even dates back to the era of Chi You.
Jiuli is a large ethnic group that Emperor Chiyou gathered on the south bank of the Yellow River, with dozens of tribes of various sizes. From the beginning, they were not of the same mind, so there will definitely be fights. This fight lasted for thousands of years, and many tribes appeared during the period. Unjust and false.
People in Jiuli are all aggressive, and our way of resolving injustices and mistakes is to fight a duel. If we win, we will be justified, and if we lose, we will admit that we are unlucky. In this way, the solution to the matter becomes simpler, but the problem is The grievances were not well vented. They surrounded the dead people from beginning to end and never dispersed.
One or two years is fine, but how many such things have happened over the past thousands of years? A large amount of resentment gathered in Shiwandashan, which was the fundamental reason why the energy of Shiwandashan became violent.
This is probably the retribution of our Wu tribe for having suffered the consequences of our own evil for so many years. More than twenty years ago, we, the Wu tribe, tried to use our own power to solve this matter.
But the problem is that the power of our Wu clan tribe will become even more violent when the Shiwanda Mountain comes into contact, which is simply not something we can stop. ”
After these words, Zhang Hao was immediately silenced. He did it for a long time and it was his own fault.
But soon Zhang Hao thought of another question, which was also the question that Zhang Hao had asked Qingxuan before coming here.
"But Great Elder, since you can no longer solve the problem of Shiwandashan, why don't you just move your family and leave this place?
Since your Jiuli tribe is composed of dozens of tribes, large and small, when you gather together, no one in the southwest should be able to do anything to you. ”
Hearing this question, a trace of cunning and a trace of helplessness flashed in the eyes of the great elder
"You kid! I knew you would ask this. Do you think so many of us can't think of a problem that you can think of?
But after going around and around, in the end, I couldn't get around the last hurdle. It was difficult for dozens of tribes to be of one mind.
This is a problem related to the survival of all tribes. It cannot be solved by the minority obeying the majority. What if the minority really obeys the majority and our aggressive instincts stumble you? "(End of Chapter)
