Chapter 160 Four

The waterway under the well is five feet wide and eight feet high. The four walls are also made of unknown black stones with exquisite patterns carved on them.When Wu Xie jumped down with Zhang Qiling, he acted hastily and lacked preparation. After entering the water, he was already prepared to choke on the water.However, he missed one thing, that is the unicorn heart that Zhang Qiling gave him earlier.

The Qilin Heart is the magical object of the water unicorn, which can divide the sea and create an enchantment, so that a person who cannot swim can breathe smoothly underwater as if walking on flat ground.Although Wu Xie is not very good at swimming, it is more than enough to hold his breath underwater for 3 minutes. Now that he has the heart of a unicorn, he can just swim as hard as he can in the sewer, without worrying about the problem of hypoxia and suffocation.

The spring water is sweet, clear and cool, and the black walls around the waterway are inlaid with sea blue finely crushed fluorite, illuminating the whole waterway brightly.Wu Xie squeezed Qilin's heart tightly, stroked a few strands of hair from his forehead with one hand, and opened his eyes wide to look for Zhang Qiling in front of him.However, he and Zhang Qiling fell into the water back and forth, but now he can't see Zhang Qiling.The waterway in front of him is straight and unobstructed, there are no turns, so Zhang Qiling can still escape, why can't he find the opponent's figure at a glance?

"Zhang Qiling!" Wu Xie clenched his fingers tightly.Three quarters of an hour later, there was no way ahead, and Wu Xie felt light coming from above his head, so he stepped on the spring water and surfaced.

Outside the water surface, there is another grand hall, which is open-air and oval in shape, where you can see the dazzling sunlight.That's right, it is an oval-shaped open-air hall, a formal style that is almost impossible to appear in ancient Chinese architecture.Moreover, the sunlight slanted down and fell into the water, like an unfolding golden veil. Then, the question is, why does the Yellow Emperor City have sunlight entering here when it is shrouded in thick fog?

The reason why the sun shines into the hall is actually that the dense fog on the roof of the hall has dispersed, revealing a blue sky.The surrounding sky is still gray and shrouded in mist, only this side of the sky is clear and blue.

Wu Xie thought, damn it, the books I have read in the past [-] years or so have gotten into my ass/eyes!A very vulgar sentence, but it is not enough to show Wu Xie's inner depression.Wu Xie swallowed her saliva and soaked in the water. After a while, her eyes scanned the surrounding thick stone pillars one by one.

These stone pillars are carved with dragon and phoenix totems, flying through the sea of ​​clouds, and stepping on the plinths engraved with auspiciousness, they stand quietly and face Wu Xie for a long time.Wu Xie chose a direction and swam slowly, trying to land.The pool water illuminated by the sun changed from clear to emerald green at some point, with sparkling and shimmering crystals, gradually changing, and projecting water patterns onto the surface of the stone pillars.

While rippling, Wu Xie touched the black steps extending into the water.Then, Wu Xie went ashore, stood on the shore, lifted the wet hem of his robe and twisted it.In a year of severe drought, the weather is hot, but it seems to be beneficial at the moment, at least it will not suffer from wind and cold when it is so wet.Wu Xie lowered her head and twisted it for a while, then raised her head, first stroked her hair, then wiped her palm back, and wiped the back of the head that is popular in Shanghai.

"Zhang Qiling! Come out to me!" Wu Xie roared imposingly.

The hall was empty, and the stone pillars were covered in darkness. Wu Xie couldn't see anything in his field of vision, except for his own echo.

Wu Xie frowned, his face was ugly, and soon, he spread his palms and held the unicorn's heart in front of his eyes, and called out angrily: "Water unicorn!" He couldn't call the master, so he asked the mount to try, although he felt the possibility of calling the water unicorn almost zero.However, as soon as he finished speaking, the water surface in the center of the pool suddenly gurgled, the bubbles churned, and there was really movement.Wu Xie was taken aback, and muttered to himself, "Shui Qilin has more conscience than its owner..."

Have a conscience?not at all.Because what appeared was not a water unicorn.Wu Xie also waited for the thing to break through the water before seeing the other party's true face.

It was a huge statue of a celestial girl in Tsing Yi. It was said to be Tsing Yi because the stone was made of fine and soft sapphire.Wu Xie looked at the lifelike, glamorous and vivid statue of the goddess standing on the blue waves, and felt in his heart that such a large piece of sapphire could almost catch up with two train carriages. The Yellow Emperor was really generous.

It is indeed a big deal, the statue in Tsing Yi is obviously carved from a whole piece of jade, a piece of jade as big as two train carriages, it is a myth!Even the rubble is not that big.Wu Xie walked back and forth along the shore a few times, Zhang Qiling was temporarily ignored by him, and he just stared at the statue.After a while, Wu Xie stopped, staring at the statue in a daze, "The goddess?"

Tiannv Ba, also known as Han Ba, is the goddess who was invited by the Yellow Emperor to help defeat Chi You in the legend.One said that she was the daughter of the Emperor of Heaven, and the other said that she was the daughter of the Yellow Emperor, but in most historical records, she should be the daughter of the Emperor of Heaven, because when the Yellow Emperor invited her to descend to earth, the Yellow Emperor was still a human being, and the Yellow Emperor defeated Chi You in the Battle of Zhuolu. With her contribution, how can everyone of the same generation, even the elders, be the younger generation?

"Shan Hai Jing" says: "There is a woman who wears Tsing Yi, and the name is Chishui Lady Xian."

"Shen Yi Jing" says: "There is a man in the south who is two or three feet long. He is naked and his eyes are on the top. He walks like the wind. His name is 魃. The country he sees is severely drought, and the red land is thousands of miles away. He is a raccoon dog. Those who meet him will get it and vote for it." In the middle of the mud is death, and the drought disappears."

Tiannv Ba fought against the Yellow Emperor, and most of her divine power was consumed, so she could not return to the sky. Moreover, she is a drought god, with infinite light and heat. Wherever she lives and wherever she goes, there are continuous droughts, and the people are in dire straits.The Yellow Emperor expelled her to the north of Chishui, put her under house arrest, and did not allow her to move around. However, Tiannu Ba was unwilling to do this, and often fled, and severe drought would strike wherever she went.

It was not the goddess Ba's intention to cause a severe drought, but she could not control herself, so she offended many people, was expelled, and then returned to the place of detention on her own.

Wu Xie once thought, why would a goddess as powerful as Tiannvba, who could even defeat Chi You, be chased by ordinary people?Also, the Yellow Emperor is really not a thing. His goddess went down to earth to help him defeat Chi You, and he was unable to go home after exhausting his divine power. After the war, it was fine regardless of his meritorious deeds. How could he imprison people and return them to the world? It is not a man's way at all. !

Wu Erbai once said: "The goddess Ba is a gentle goddess." This is the conclusion he came to after reading many historical materials and legends.Wu Xie took it for granted, and had always been deeply impressed by Tiannv Ba.Of course, the reason why Wu Xie could keep a deep impression and recognize the statue of Tiannuba here is not only because Wu Xie admired Tiannuba's character, but because Tiannuba later became a more famous goddess.

Tiannv Ba is a disciple of the Holy Mother Yuanjun Xiwangmu, later known as the Nine Heavens Xuannv Empress.

The Mysterious Bird of Destiny, descended to give birth to Shang.

The leader of the Yanhuang Tribe, Huangdi, asked the goddess Ba to come down to earth to help him defeat the Chiyou tribe in Dongyi. However, hundreds of years later, the goddess in Tsing Yi, who had been transformed from the goddess Ba into the Nine Heavens Xuannv, gave birth to an egg, which made Jian Di of the Yourong family give birth Ancestors of the Shang Dynasty.The ancestors of the Shang Dynasty belonged to Dongyi, the Xia Dynasty belonged to Yanhuang, the Shang destroyed Xia, and Dongyi replaced Yanhuang. If there is no personal grievance between the goddess Ba and the Yellow Emperor, Wu Xie would definitely not believe it.However, this situation is a bit strange.Wu Xie couldn't figure it out, why did the Yellow Emperor let such a big statue of Tiannvba stick in his palace? Could it be that later he felt that he was wrong and made atonement to Tiannvba?

It's completely impossible...but it's something else, for example, Wu Xie intuitively believes that there must be an inexplicable kindness between the Yellow Emperor and the goddess Ba!blame!Affection!hatred!Otherwise, Tiannv Ba, Nine Heavens Xuannv, why should they trip the Yanhuang Tribe?Wu Xie's thinking diverged, and he couldn't help thinking more, even thinking that the severe drought had something to do with Tiannuba.Wu Xie simply sat down and stared at the Tsing Yi statue in a daze.Soon, a figure flashed behind him, moving swiftly and swiftly, followed by another group of black shadows.

"Wu Xie!" said the black shadow.

Wu Xie shuddered, turned his head angrily, narrowed his eyes and said, "The one surnamed Zhang! Are you willing to show up?"

The person surnamed Zhang ran up to Wu Xie, stretched out his hand and pulled him up, "Why are you here?" Then he looked him up and down, "This place is very dangerous, you shouldn't come here."

"Dangerous, dangerous, can you tell me where it is not dangerous?" Wu Xie slapped the opponent's hand away, "Zhang Qiling, explain to me why you suddenly jumped into the well? Do you know that I am very worried about you disappearing like this? .”

Facing Wu Xie's questioning, Zhang Qiling's answer was silence.The two stood looking at each other for a long time, Wu Xie sighed, and said in a compromised way: "Next time, you can't leave me behind."

Zhang Qiling thought for a while, and finally nodded.

But even if he nodded, Wu Xie still had no hope.Zhang Qiling is a recidivist, he broke his promise on this point and got fat many times, Wu Xie was bitten by a snake once, and he was afraid of well ropes for ten years, so he will keep an eye on him more, even if the opponent runs to the ends of the world, he will chase him and catch him back.

"Wu Xie, come with me." Zhang Qiling stretched out his hand, motioning for Wu Xie to hold him, "It's dangerous here, don't leave me."

"Now that you know you told me not to leave you, what did you do just now?" Wu Xie gave Zhang Qiling a sideways look.

Zhang Qi Ling:"……"

"Do you know what's going on?" Wu Xie didn't move, pointing back to the statue of the goddess in Tsing Yi and said, "It just popped up suddenly, I'm a little concerned."

Zhang Qiling stared at the statue of the goddess in green, and said after a while: "I accidentally touched a mechanism."

"Ah?" Zhang Qiling was also careless sometimes.Haha... For some reason, Wu Xie actually took pleasure in other people's misfortune.

Zhang Qiling glanced at Wu Xie lightly, puzzled by the undisguised smile on Wu Xie's face.However, he only paused, and continued: "That's Di Jiang, the daughter of Di Jun and Xi He, known as Tiannv Ba."

"I know she is Tiannv Ba." Wu Xie was taken aback, "But I didn't know her name was Di Jiang. Nine Heavens Profound Girl's boudoir name is Di Jiang? How do you know her name?"

"Nine Heavens Profound Girl?" Zhang Qiling said he didn't understand.After thinking for a while, he said again: "When I met the organ, the stone tablet had this name engraved on it."

"Okay." Wu Xie almost forgot that Chinese people like to record the most, when they go, where they stand, and where they stand.

Taking history as a mirror, we can know the rise and fall, and in view of the past, we can use it to rule the way.The ancients worshiped their ancestors and had a sense of sacred mission to record the past.

"Is that Emperor Jiang? I want to see the stele you mentioned." Wu Xie said to Zhang Qiling.

Zhang Qiling nodded, stretched out his hand again, and asked Wu Xie to hold him.

Wu Xie blushed, thinking to herself that it has become a habit to hold hands every now and then.However, he still hurriedly held Zhang Qiling's hand, as if he was unwilling to part for the rest of his life.

"Go." Wu Xie smiled.

With Wu Xie's smile, Zhang Qiling led him to the dark place behind the stone pillar.

"Brother." Wu Xie followed Zhang Qiling, Zhang Qiling followed every step, Wu Xie followed suit, "Why did you jump into the well just now?"

Zhang Qiling froze, tilted his head slightly, and said with a slightly hesitant tone, "I... heard a call."

"What? What call?" Wu Xie wondered.

"There is a voice calling me from the well, I feel very familiar." Zhang Qiling said lightly.

...Remote and desolate, a dilapidated city where no birds shit, there are voices calling from the well, could it be that the city is called ghosts?no, I can not.Thinking of this, Wu Xie smiled.In the city of the Yellow Emperor, under the seat of Xuannv, what do demons and monsters count as?

"Can you be more specific?" Wu Xie squeezed Zhang Qiling's hand with five fingers.

Zhang Qiling nodded.However, when Zhang Qiling was about to speak, there was a roar of a monster in the darkness, Zhang Qiling pulled Wu Xie past him, and covered Wu Xie behind him.

"What?" Wu Xie was dissatisfied with Zhang Qiling's underestimation of him, and desperately poked his head out from behind Zhang Qiling.

I saw a monster slowly walking out of the darkness, its shape was like a cow, naked, with a human face and horse feet, its voice was like a baby crying, and its blood pupils were as big as copper bells.

Wu Xie was stunned, and pressed her body against Zhang Qiling, unwilling to separate for a moment. "It's Jiao Jiao!?" His voice trembled a little.

That's right, that's Jiao Jiao, who used to only hear his name but not his appearance, the nemesis of the Zhang family, Jiao Jiao!
