Chapter 2: Emperor Hegemony (please comment)
The old ancient tree has become conscious.
The ancient tree, nourished by the emperor's constitution and blood, began to glow with vitality that night, and she sprouted several brittle and tender branches like jade.
The autumn nights are long, the cold moonlight is chilly, the sky is covered with frost flowers, the icy-cold streams, and the basin-like pond outside the village, with stars shining in it.
The faint roar of beasts in the wilderness woke up the dreamer.
Looking out the window, it was so peaceful and there were no scary sounds anymore.
It was a rare night for people to sleep peacefully, with only the faint sound of the breeze blowing outside.
The crow of a big rooster began to resound around the entire village, cooing, cooing, coaxing...
The sun rises from the far east, the curling smoke, the high and low rivers and mountains, the simple people, and the ancient terraces one after another like spirals. Such a scenery is really poetic and picturesque.
The tinkling little river is like an iron worm, twisting and turning into the distance, not knowing where it will go.
People woke up from their sleep, and the village became lively and noisy. The children who should go to school went to school early, and the people who should work left the village.
Xiao Huangxi also went to school. Huangji's uncle made breakfast and left some food for Huangji's brother and sister before going to the farmland. Huangji stayed under an old tree and slept all day.
He was too tired. He woke up vaguely, always feeling that there was something extra somewhere, but he didn't know what it was.
The sun sets in the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun is like blood-red red paint coloring the clouds on the horizon. The setting sun slants across the void. It is bright above, but the village begins to become dim, and evening comes.
At this moment, time passes, and in the evening, there is a farmer with a pig iron plow on his shoulder, a whip in one hand, and a dry tobacco between his fingers.
The children pulling the cow forward were wearing bellybands and pigtails. The mouth of the cow was covered with a mouth cage, and hemp ropes were tied inside the two holes of its nose. Nasal fluid and cow blood fell on the ground in a long stream.
A fisherman wearing a bamboo hat and a rice dumpling coat, a long fishing rod, and a long fishing line, but no fish took the bait. The fisherman’s ugly old face frowned. After a while, the fishing line was pulled at a very fast speed. Apparently there was a fish.
Take the bait.
The hunter was carrying a spear and a net in one hand. His knees and wrists were wrapped with rag strips and thick hemp ropes. He was also carrying a bloody rabbit and a pheasant with one of its claws broken off.
There is also an old man with a small hoe in his hand and a medicine basket on his back. His face is wrinkled, his hair is white, and his back is stooped. His clothes are in tatters. The medicine basket contains cordyceps, angelica root, pinellia, gastrodia elata, etc. Hey, there is actually another
A flower from the other shore.
The people in this village are undoubtedly very simple villagers.
People went back to their homes to find their mothers, and every household was enjoying the delicious meals cooked by their families.
Huangji also made his uncle's favorite vegetable and vegetable soup, his sister's favorite wild mushroom tilapia, and his own favorite scrambled eggs with tomatoes, as well as braised pork and taro, egg yolk and cauliflower soup.
After dinner, the old people sat together and talked about the past and the present; the young people drank tea together and talked about livelihood; the women gathered together to knit sweaters and make animal skin shoes; the students did their homework; and the children played and played.
However, except for children, adults, older children, and old people, they always feel that there is something extra in the village, which is a strange feeling.
"Shi Fan, do you feel anything?" A gray-haired old man asked Shi Fan, looking at the sky.
"Grandpa, this ancient tree in our village has come back to life, emitting a soft light, as if it is guarding our village." Shi Fan responded to the old man's words by pointing to the huge dead tree in the distance.
The old man turned around slowly, stared at the old tree carefully with his dim eyes, and said to himself:
"This is autumn, and the frost has already passed. It's impossible. Since my ancestors, there have been legends saying that this tree has never sprouted, grown, or fallen leaves. What is going on..."
As if he was afraid that the old man would not believe his words, Shi Fan confirmed:
"Really, Grandpa, this ancient tree has several tender green branches, which are emitting soft light."
Soon, everyone knew about this, and all the elderly people gathered together to discuss the clan meeting.
They thought of the legend passed down from ancient times.
It is said that the ancestral land will enter the Age of Ending Law in a certain period of time, and then a mortal with an imperial physique will break the taboo. He will rise from the ordinary, walk out of the wilderness, and lead his people to conquer unknown places."
As for more, the old people don’t know and can’t know.
One day, Huangji sat under an old tree and looked at the horizon. The rays of the sun shone on the earth, giving warmth and growth to all things on the earth.
In winter, there is heavy snowfall, and thick snow covers the earth. The dazzling sunlight and the temperature will not melt the thick snow for a while.
The men in the village went into the strange and unpredictable wilderness, and the hunter also followed. After all, he was a professional hunter and had rich experience.
They were going to hunt an old wild bull to prepare enough meat for the people in the village for the winter. Their arrival was peaceful, without any weirdness or terror, and there was no roar of wild beasts.
The traces of imperial constitution and blood emanating from their bodies were so powerful that they suppressed the beasts and ferocious birds and crawled on the ground, trembling.
But on the distant land of Cuba, there was a unicorn totem who suddenly opened his eyes: "Did that person with the domineering physique appear? What a familiar scent that is!
Because its heart is guarding the ancient village in the wilderness.
There are also ancient trees that drift with the village in the long river of time and never die of old age.
On the distant land of Cuba, Guizhou Province, the unicorn totem began to shake, and it was slowly breaking away from the earth.
On this day, the branches of the huge ancient tree next to the village were also swaying. Its spiritual consciousness became more mature, and it understood something: "Has that creature been born? What will it bring to the world?"
At this time, in the vast wilderness far away, the villagers were planning to hunt the old bull.
The old man cow was very old and weak, and his blood and vitality were withered. It was obvious that he was going to die.
When it was about to die, it shed tears and uttered human words: "Please don't hurt my grandson, and don't tell it that I am its grandfather."
"It is the black cow from the Huangji family in your village. Please take off my horns and give them to it when it cultivates into a human body."
"These two horns will protect it. It is lucky enough to be with a boy with a domineering physique. I can also die in peace."
In the end, people did not take away its huge carcass, but took off its horns and buried it.
They hunted a giant deer again and carried the carcass back to the village on a rolling cart. The men removed the antlers and collected the sperm and blood of the giant deer.
Every household had a portion of the huge venison, and the rest of the village began to show off their cooking skills and make delicious dishes.
Huang Ji was a bit different. He first found large pieces of red sandalwood that had withered for an unknown number of years, and cut them into small pieces. He burned a pile of arch fires, and finally they stopped smoking.
He then took four forked dead wood branches and set up a simple barbecue grill. Then, he used yew sticks to thread large pieces of venison and grilled them on the grill. He called his sister and
uncle.
It just so happened that Hongyan came to play with him today. Could it be that she found out about stealing apples? Of course not...
With their help turning over the food, Huang Ji was freed up.
He took out the seasoning box, salt, Sichuan peppercorns, white pepper, chili powder, wild garlic powder, ginger powder, seasoning sesame oil, cooking wine, honey...etc.
Whether it tastes good or not, whether it is delicious or not, no one can say, it depends on the reaction of the whole village.
After a while, the fragrance overflowed.
At this time, the whole village, whether it was the beauties singing and dancing, the men drinking from large bowls of sea food, the old people chewing slowly, or the children stuffing stuffing into their mouths for fear of being snatched by others.
They all felt a little weird.
Suddenly a unique fragrance was inhaled into their nostrils.
Quiet, momentarily quiet, people couldn't help but look towards Huang Ji.
This Huangji looks like he is twisting his butt or spreading fish feed. He is busy going back and forth with strange steps and movements.
He is like a painter, splashing ink crazily there, as if he is trying to paint the vast mountains and rivers.
Huang Ji seemed to feel something was wrong: "Why is it so quiet?"
Holding the cumin bottle in his hand, he stopped on top of the barbecue grill and kept sprinkling cumin while looking back and forth.
"Holy shit, what are you doing?" These people were all looking at me in shock.
Some of them were holding wine bowls, and the wine was spilled, and some were holding meat in their hands that almost fell off. The postures of the beautiful women twisting their bodies were really not elegant at all.
"Did my actions shock them? No way?"
They slowed down and rushed over to grab the barbecue to eat.
Are goddesses still goddesses? Aunts have become younger? Men have just come out of prison, old men and women’s teeth have grown back? Children have grown up?
Huangji was helpless. Who made the people in his village always so wild?
But the people who have calmed down are not in vain, after all, Huangji’s family hasn’t had a bite yet!
They started to help, they brought in fruit wine, animal milk and so on.
There were also dried fruits, fruits, exotic fruits, etc. Everyone started eating, drinking and having fun again.
Gradually, people got tired, so they all packed up and went home to rest.
Huangji asked Hongyan to sleep with his sister, and then he went to sit under the ancient tree.
Winter has passed, and spring is like a big girl with blooming flowers and a shy face, running happily all over the earth.
Spring is very close. It has come to the soil, to the cliff, to the river, climbed up the ancient trees, and entered the cave.
Spring is the vitality of the earth's evolution and reciprocation. It brings hope, warmth and growth.
The quiet moonlight allows me to see your face clearly and feel your presence.
In a trance, the ancient tree transformed into a humanoid figure.
After all, when the world first opened, the ancestor god of all things was in human form. The human form is the best carrier of Tao. If all living creatures want to practice cultivation, they must undoubtedly cultivate themselves into human beings first, which must be a long time.
The moonlight was hazy, the breeze was blowing, and the shadows of the trees were dancing. A hazy figure broke away from the ancient trees and appeared next to the wilderness.
This is a goddess who is naturally beautiful, untainted by dust, ethereal and elegant.
She stretched out her slender hands like jade paste and touched Huang Ji's face, and Huang Ji felt the tenderness.
He opened his eyes and was shocked by her beauty. He thought to himself: "Who is she? How come she feels so familiar?"
"Xiao Huangji, don't be afraid."
"This is your mother's appearance. I have seen her before. She and your father asked me for something. I will tell you when you are strong enough in the future."
"You are the imperial physique that has been gathering since ancient times. It is you who will break and end the taboos of the Age of Ending Law."
"The vast world of the future will be written by you, but your road to growth will be extremely long. All the great opportunities and fortunes of your ancestral land, the earth, will eventually converge on you."
"You will lead ordinary people to rise in the end of the Dharma era and go to unknown places to fight against powerful enemies..."
This hazy existence is the spirit of this ancient giant tree.
What she said was too outrageous for Huang Ji.
