"A place of gold, a place of bathing, a salty pool." Yun Shi said with a little surprise, "Since Xianchi is here, then the valley we entered just now is 'Yanggu'?" ”
Mo Zhiyu stood up with Yun Shi in his arms, and slowly turned it so that Yun Shi could better observe the surroundings, and at the same time, he asked very puzzledly: "Since it is a land of extreme gold, why is it so cold?" ”
"Xianchi is the early name of the white tiger, which belongs to the West. Although the west is golden, it is the land of the sunset, and naturally has the power to devour the flames, and on the contrary, of course, it is extremely cold. Yun Shi hooked his neck and said slowly, "Although you have cultivated all five elements, your true natal life is fire and gold, so only the chill generated by the real extreme fire and extreme gold will make you feel cold." ”
"Wait, what's the white tiger? Sixiang that white tiger? Mo Zhiyu couldn't react a little.
"It's me who said it too quickly, and I'll re-explain." Yun Shi continued to explain slowly, "'Donggong Canglong, Southern Vermilion Bird, Xigong White Tiger, Beigong Xuanwu', they represent the four directions, also known as 'Four Elephants', this is common sense, right? ”
Mo Zhiyu nodded slightly,
Yun Shi continued: "But in the early days, it was not this name, but 'East Palace Canglong, Southern Vermilion Bird, West Palace Xianchi, North Palace Xuanwu', here is not 'White Tiger' but 'Xianchi' in the West Palace, and in later generations, because only the West Palace is not a special divine beast among the spirits of the four elephants, so the 'Xianchi' was forcibly changed to 'White Tiger'.
Moreover, in the legend of the early years, there was a saying that "the sun comes out of Yanggu and bathes in the salty pool", so in the early days, the salty pond actually does not only represent a direction, but also represents the end of the day and the beginning of the night. In some of the more ancient religious traditions, the status of the West Palace is actually higher than that of the other four palaces. ”
"You just said that the valley we entered is 'Yanggu', and this is a salty pond, do you mean that the old Holy See worships the West Palace?" Mo Zhiyu pondered, "But I remember that the Holy See we saw in Wuxi before, most of their sacrificial temples were actually dedicated to the three-legged golden crow representing the sun......
After finishing speaking, Mo Zhiyu suddenly realized, "I understand, the so-called infighting in the Holy See back then was actually a duel between two forces, the 'salty pool' that represented the power of the night was driven away by the 'three-legged golden crow' that represented the power of the day, and the day finally defeated the night." ”
Then he wondered, "But why are there so many moons in the decoration of the Holy See?" Doesn't the moon belong to night? ”
"It is true that the moon only exists at night, but the moon reflects the light of the sun, a rare light in the night." "Perhaps," said Yun Shi, "Perhaps, in the eyes of the Protestant Church, it was the moon that led them to victory over the night? ”
"I think you're forcibly popularizing science." Mo Zhi carried Yun Shi and walked slowly around the "salty pool" here, "But no matter what, we should have entered the real core of the old Holy See by mistake now. If this 'Yanggu' is a huge tomb, then there should be some great burial here.
We have already gone down to this salty pond before, and with our current ability, we will definitely not be able to go to the end, so we can only look for clues from the side. ”
Yun Shi nodded slightly, observed the surrounding situation, and suddenly pointed his hand forward, and said, "You see that there seems to be something carved on the wall over there, and I feel that there is a completely opposite force over there that is here." ”
"Really?" Mo Zhiyu looked in the direction that Yun Shi was pointing, and sure enough, he saw that there was something faintly on the wall in the distance. So he ran quickly in that direction, and as he got closer to it, he sensed a warm force, the opposite of the cold on the other side of the salty pool.
When he finally came to the front of this wall, he saw a huge "three-legged golden crow"!
Just now they were still speculating that this old Holy See and the current new Holy See in Nanlu are two diametrically opposed worship beliefs, but as a result, a three-legged golden crow appeared here, which seems very contradictory, could it be that their guess is completely wrong?
Mo Zhiyu glanced at Yun Shi, and both of them tacitly did not ask this question first, but both looked at the wall in front of them again. Mo Zhiyu put Yun Shi down, and continued to walk in the direction of the wall with her, and walked in front of the wall, and then they were truly sure that the three-legged golden crow on this wall was really made of a solid super-large Yuanli spar.
"The reserves of the Old Holy See are also quite good," Mo Zhiyu exclaimed slightly, "Just this Yuan Force Crystal is enough to arm a second-class sect in the Eastern Continent." ”
"But even if this 'three-legged golden crow' is so luxurious, it is just a three-legged golden crow trapped in the salty pond, and it will never be able to fly out of Yanggu again." Yun Shi stepped back slightly, looking up at the wall in front of him, which was almost more than five meters high, "Look, not far from this three-legged golden crow, there are circles of metallic Yuanli crystals, although the size and number of these Yuanli crystals are far inferior to this 'three-legged golden crow', but they are enough to bind this 'three-legged golden crow' here." ”
Mo Zhiyu pondered Yun Shi's analysis, combined with what Yun Shi said before, and then said: "You said before, 'The sun comes out of Yanggu and bathes in the salty pool', so the 'three-legged golden crow' that appears here now is just a symbol, symbolizing a golden crow that has been bathing in the salty pool?" However, they were rushed here from the Southern Continent by the New Holy See, and leaving a thing like this here is not a slap in the face? ”
"It can also be a sign of encouragement for 'shame and courage,'" Yun Shi glanced at him and said very seriously, "They left this 'three-legged golden crow' here, just to remind them again and again that they must remember that period of history and counterattack back to the Southern Continent." It seems that the ambitions of the Holy See on both sides have not diminished. ”
"But hasn't the new church already given up?" Mo Zhiyu said, "So they also know very little about the South China Sea, otherwise the holy woman who knows what month will win you over, give you a boat, and almost give you soldiers, so that you can help them find the location of the old Holy See, and it is best to bring back the treasures of the old Holy See." ”
"No," Yun Shi shook her head slightly, "If they really have to give up, it will be impossible to prepare the kind of large sea ship we are boarding in a short period of time, and the manufacturing technology of that kind of sea ship is extremely exquisite, compared to Yunzhou, this is not something that a Holy See that has given up on the Southern Continent can do." ”
