The first thousand two hundred and eighty-four chapters of persistence
"What does the high priest mean?" Qin Yu looked at the high priest with bright eyes. By this time, Qin Yu already knew many things.
"Aren't you curious about what was written in that secret letter?" The high priest looked at Qin Yu with a smile, his old eyes narrowed into a straight line due to wrinkles.
"As Mr. Wolong's successor, you are not at all curious about the contents of Mr. Wolong's secret letter? Isn't it just to go to the Panlong Mountains to find traces of Mr. Wolong's life?"
As soon as the high priest said these words, Qin Yu was not surprised at all when someone discovered his identity, because when the high priest mentioned Meng Huo and the secret letter, he had already expected that the high priest was going to
What he is talking about must be related to his master.
As for the fact that he went to the Panlong Mountains, the high priest would know about it, and Qin Yu was not surprised. The Panlong Mountains were originally populated by Yi people. As the high priest of the entire Yi people, he would naturally know this.
Moreover, Qin Yu even suspected that the high priest knew about the existence of Zhuge Wuhou Zhenjun's palace deep in the Panlong Mountains. Sure enough, the words of the high priest later confirmed Qin Yu's guess.
"You went to the main hall of Zhuge Wuhou Zhenjun in the Panlong Mountains. In fact, I already knew it from the moment you stepped into the Panlong Mountains. It's just that I didn't stop you."
"What do you mean?" Qin Yu frowned and looked at the high priest and asked.
"Back then, the content of the secret letter Mr. Wolong gave to our ancestors was that he asked our ancestors to help guard the main hall of Zhuge Wuhou Zhenjun in the Panlong Mountains."
The high priest finally told the secret, and after hearing the secret, Qin Yu stood up from the futon and said, "In other words, you Yi people are actually the guardians of the hall of Zhuge Wuhou Zhenjun."
This news really shocked Qin Yu. Qin Yu also thought at first that such a hall should not have a guardian, but he did not expect that the guardian turned out to be a Yi nationality.
"To be precise, it is our lineage, not the entire Yi people." The high priest slowly said: "There is a myth circulated among the Yi people, saying that there is a patron saint of the Yi people in the Panlong Mountains. In fact, it is also our group.
The pulse was passed on because, for some reason, the main hall of Zhuge Wuhou Zhenjun will automatically appear every few decades, and may be seen by the tribesmen who go up the mountain."
"No, if you are the guardians, then why were the previous group of people able to enter the palace smoothly? Even us, we never saw you coming out to stop us." Qin Yu suddenly thought of an unreasonable point.
If the high priest cannot explain this, then he has to be skeptical of the high priest's words.
"That's because of your appearance." The high priest seemed to know what Qin Yu was thinking, and said slowly: "When you entered the village at the foot of the mountain, that group of people had already entered the mountains. Originally, I planned to stop them.
However, when I learned that you at the foot of the mountain also came for this palace, I changed my mind."
It turned out that when Qin Yu and the others arrived in the village that day, in addition to giving the map to the tour guide, Qin Haifeng also asked some elderly people in the village after reading it. However, what Qin Yu and the others did not know was that many of these elderly people were Ah
The spy arranged by the Ke family spread the news to the ears of the high priest that day.
"As for the identities of your group, I conducted an investigation. There is no need to say more about the two children of the Xiao family. They know the basics. Although the identities of the other few were not found out, they are harmless. The one that interested me most at the time
, but it’s you.”
After learning Qin Yu's identity from the investigation information, the high priest immediately made a decision and ordered the Yi people who were guarding Zhuge Wuhou Zhenjun's main hall to withdraw, allowing those people to open the palace door and enter.
"Why?" Qin Yu wanted to know the reason why the high priest suddenly changed his decision after investigating his identity.
"Because you are the person we are waiting for. Now that you are here, our family's mission for so many years has been completed."
A smile appeared on the high priest's face, "In that secret letter, Mr. Wolong told my ancestor that at some time in future generations, his descendants would go to this palace, and at that time, my lineage would
There is no need to guard that hall anymore."
"Are you so sure that I am Mr. Wolong's successor?" Qin Yu asked.
In the entire metaphysical world, those who know his identity are Mr. Bao and the Xu family, but others do not know the origin of his apprenticeship. How did the high priest determine this?
"Because I divined a hexagram that day, and the hexagram showed that the real master has come." The high priest stretched out his left hand, and there were six copper coins there.
"So that's it."
Qin Yu had no doubt that the high priest would lie. It was not surprising that the other party had such skill in divination. When he was at Guangxiao Temple, didn't Master Zhiren wait for his arrival for the same reason?
"However, after all, the hexagram shows only the recent past. I am not 100% sure whether it is true or not. This matter is of great importance. My family has been guarding it for thousands of years. If the success falls short due to an accident, then I really have no shame in going.
Seeing the ancestors, that’s why I tried to test you before. It wasn’t until I saw you performing the Star Star Technique and the appearance of Master Qixing that I was finally able to confirm that you are the descendant of Mr. Wolong, and the person our family has been waiting for.
.”
After saying this, Qin Yu understood everything. At that moment, his face was moved, his legs were close together, and he bowed respectfully towards the high priest. This was to thank the high priest family for their protection for thousands of years.
For a promise made by their ancestors, the entire family stayed in the mountains for nearly a thousand years. While walking along the way, Qin Yu felt that the Yi people in this village were lagging behind compared to the Yi people in other places.
Many, Qin Yu believes that without the fetters of this promise, with the strength of the high priest family, they can become the overlord of Sichuan just like the Xiao family, instead of staying in the mountains.
This persistence is worthy of Qin Yu’s bow!
A thousand years is not a long time in the long river of history, but when it comes to a family, it can already make a family go through ups and downs, prosper and decline. Thousands of years can make a family's genealogy cover the entire room.
The righteousness is ancient, and the high priests are worthy of this word.
"More than ten years ago, a group of people came here and entered the palace. However, something happened within our clan at that time. When we found out, this group of people had already entered the palace. Later,
Two people walked out of the palace. They were exactly the same. However, our ancestors had taught us that we could only prevent people from entering the palace. Once someone comes from the palace, we must not stop them. We can only let them go.
Leave."
Qin Yu nodded. He knew who the two identical people the high priest mentioned were probably Qin Haifeng. Qin Haifeng had entered the palace and made a copy of himself through the wish stone.
"Okay, now that you are here, the things inside should be returned to their original owners. Go in, just behind here, I will wait for you outside."
There was a look of relief on the high priest's face, but also a trace of reluctance. In short, his expression was a bit complicated. But after Qin Yu glanced at the high priest, he nodded, stepped forward, and walked past the statue of Meng Huo.
Passed through a corridor, and finally appeared in front of a courtyard door.
Without hesitation, Qin Yu pushed the door open. As soon as the door was pushed open, a wave of heat swept towards Qin Yu. In the courtyard, a ball of flames was suspended in the air. It floated quietly, without a trace of flames.
The fluctuation, this scene, is as if the flame is a sleeping child.
Feeling the flames, something suddenly floated out automatically in Qin Yu's arms and headed towards the flames, but Qin Yu did not stop him and just squinted at the scene in front of him.
What came out of Qin Yu's arms was the ancient bronze lamp that Qin Yu obtained in the Changbai Mountains. As for the flames in the yard, Qin Yu also knew the origin of the other party.
This was the lamp used by my master when Wu Zhangyuan continued his life. After his master disappeared, the flame fell into the hands of the Yi people, but the oil lamp was taken away by the Xiao family.
This was what Xiao Yueyue told Qin Yu, and Qin Yu also believed that what Xiao Yueyue said was true.
The scene in front of him also confirmed Qin Yu's guess at the time. There was indeed some connection between the lamp used by his master to extend his life and this ancient bronze lamp. It was even very possible that this ancient bronze lamp was also his own.
One of the lamps used by the master when he first renewed his life.
Feeling the approach of the ancient bronze lamp, the flame began to slowly wake up, and began to beat, just like a piece of music score. From the slight beat at the beginning, to the back like the rushing Yellow River, it was out of control, and a burst of fire spread out.
The entire yard was completely flooded.
Even Qin Yu had to withdraw from the courtyard because he found that even if he used all the acupoints in his body to defend himself, he still could not withstand the heat wave. In front of the village, the high priest had his hands folded behind him and looked at
Looking at the sky-high firelight behind him, he let out a long sigh.
At this moment, all the Yi people in the village stopped what they were doing and looked at the soaring fire at the top of the valley. Many people knelt on the ground devoutly and chanted some Yi dialects, vaguely speaking.
The two words I heard from their words were: holy fire.
Yes, all the Yi people of the Ake tribe know that at the top of their village, there is the sacred fire of their tribe. As long as the holy fire is there, their tribe will never die. However, all the Ake tribe will never die from the moment they become sensible.
Everyone knows that this holy fire does not belong to the Yi people. One day in the future, someone will take the holy fire away. (To be continued)
