The arrival of Nan Muyu solved a big problem for Yue Jinghua. He can be said to be the only person in the entire Fontaine County who has seen the true face of the Beast God so far.
The reason why Nan Muyu can know the true face of the Beast God starts from his origin.
Nan Muyu's family is not a well-known family, but since his first generation ancestors, they have lived in the Xuan Beast Ridge area and made a living by taking risks. They are well-known adventurers in the Xuan Beast Ridge area.
From the time he was fourteen years old, and for a long time before he became the captain of the county guard, he had fun climbing the different peaks of the Black Beast Ridge like his father and ancestors did.
The accumulation over generations was also due to the need to save his life. He held in his hand a top-secret adventure manual that neither the village chief nor anyone else had ever seen.
When Yue Jinghua heard this, she immediately felt that something was interesting.
In the 23rd century, she had been to Nepal on a mission. In the hands of local indigenous guides, she also discovered similar special terrain maps for climbing the Himalayas. This kind of map could only be obtained in the hands of local indigenous guides.
Information is often recorded in local characters or special symbols. Even if outsiders steal or copy it, it will be difficult to understand.
But it is this kind of handbook that is often the key to an adventurer's survival.
Since Nan Muyu wanted to take refuge, he naturally would not hide his secrets anymore. He took out the letter that he had always carried with him without any reservation.
Yue Jinghua noticed that the animal skin used to make the notebook seemed to have been tie-dyed with a special tie-dye method, and the ink on the notebook seemed to be made from special animal blood mixed with grass juice. This kind of notebook is not only waterproof and fireproof
, it can also stand the test of time and never fade.
"These are just gadgets. If the lord is interested, I will teach him someday." After getting rid of the grudge with Yue Jinghua, Nan Muyu regained his cheerful personality.
His true character is the same as that of most adventurers, optimistic and cheerful. However, during his years in Fontaine County, the hard days have wiped out his nature.
Nan Muyu's nature is not bad. After seeing the villagers in Fontaine County getting better and better day by day, living a life where Xuan Beast cultivated the land and had rice and clothes, he also hesitated and struggled countless times before he found the solution.
Yue Jinghua.
An adventure diary arrived just in time. Yue Jinghua took a look at it and discovered something unusual.
Secret passages, shortcuts, information essential for survival on the Xuan Beast Ridge, as well as some safe places with fresh water and food, are all recorded on it, including records about Kalan Peak and the Beast God.
About 2,300 years ago, the Black Beast Ridge had not yet been developed on a large scale. There was an unfathomable cave on Kalan Peak. Originally, no Black Beast lived there. But suddenly one night, there was a heavy wind and rain in the mountain, and an evil beast came out.
The dragon appears out of thin air. It is said that the dragon can control the wind and rain. All the mysterious beasts in this area follow its lead.
During the period when the evil dragon's rule was at its strongest, all the mysterious beasts and people in this area were forced to worship the evil dragon.
Until later, a strong dragon-slaying man appeared on Kalan Peak. He slaughtered the evil dragon alive, and then suppressed its corpse forever in a black stone sarcophagus in the cave. It is said that this strong man, after destroying the evil dragon,
After that, he went to the more dangerous Five Sacred Mountains. Unfortunately, the strong man did not come back in the end.
Ever since the strong man was a child, there has been a legend about the resurrection of the evil dragon from the dead in the Kalan Peak area. Every spring and autumn, the cave where the dragon's corpse and coffin are stored will be filled with gloomy winds and emit clouds of colorful smoke.
It is said that anyone who accidentally breaks into the mist will see an evil dragon coiling around the mountain. In order to prevent the evil dragon from being used as goods, Bailu County and Fontaine County jointly spent money to build a stone sculpture of the beast god, and agreed to raise funds every spring and autumn.
Before offering sacrifices, go to the Kalan Peak area to worship.
The sacrifices brought there range from mysterious beast cubs to chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep. Without exception, the sacrifices will disappear.
The custom of worshiping beast gods became especially popular when Nan Muyu was more than ten years old. Once, he got mixed up with the crowd delivering sacrifices and went all the way to the cave at Kalan Peak.
"I was thirteen years old that year. I followed my father to climb several peaks on the Black Beast Ridge. I was proud of my experience, so I brought my family's special detoxification pill and followed the crowd all the way to Wangkalan Peak. Following the old rules.
, after the mist appeared, everyone was about to go down the mountain. Out of curiosity, I found a hiding place and hid while the mist was blinding me." Nan Muyu recalled.
At Kalan Peak, because of the presence of evil dragons, ordinary mysterious beasts only dared to stay on the mountainside and at the foot of the mountain. Young Nan Muyu actually avoided the effects of the smoke because he had a Jiejie Pill in his mouth that could ward off miasma.
When the smoke cleared, he found that the group of mysterious beast cubs and livestock that had been driven as sacrifices were huddled together and spontaneously walked towards the heights of Kalan Peak.
He followed the herd until he found the legendary cave where the dragon corpse was stored.
"The cave was dark and deep, and the tunnels in the cave were like human intestines, winding and winding. I was young and bold at that time and didn't know how to avoid taboos, so I walked in all the way." After saying this, Nan Muyu paused.
.
He recalled the scene when he saw the sarcophagus. It was a staggeringly huge sarcophagus. It was exquisitely made, and every trace of pattern and totem on it did not look like it was made by a mortal hand.
"Have you seen the dragon corpse with your own eyes?" Yue Jinghua asked. There is a sarcophagus, which means that there is probably a dragon corpse in the sarcophagus.
If there really is a dragon corpse, that would be great news.
If Nan Muyu's words are true, that evil dragon is probably a holy beast. If its body is still there, then its holy elixir is probably still in its body.
"Unfortunately, I didn't see the corpse of the dragon with my own eyes. I only saw the stone coffin. On the coffin was a dragon totem. Based on the totem, I believed that what was in the coffin was the legendary evil dragon. I
I tried various methods to open the huge coffin, but the stone coffin weighed about ten thousand kilograms and was as big as a room.
I have been unable to open the small tomb, so in desperation, I left the cave. I wanted to go down the mountain and find someone to accompany me to enter the cave again and open the sarcophagus. But no one believed what I said," Nan Muyu
Recalling the scene back then, I also felt a bit distracted.
For most villagers, offending the beast god is equivalent to getting into trouble. They are unwilling to accompany or believe Nan Muyu.
After that time, Nan Muyu also wanted to enter Kalan Peak again to find the secret of the sarcophagus. But the strange thing was that after that time, no matter how he searched, he could not find the location of the cave again.
"Without further delay, let's go to Kalan Peak to explore," Yue Jinghua heard, determined to enter Kalan Peak to explore.
