Chapter 402: Killing the Aoki and Establishing the Four Poles
"Hey, are you really going to announce it so publicly?" Chu Ge, who had been holding back on speaking, couldn't help but ask after returning to the top of the main peak.
This performance is definitely not the original Qiu Wuji who wanted to save face for the clan leader. She was obviously in love with him. She had done everything in the real world, but she still had to be innocent in the book. Not to mention the official announcement in front of the elders, exuding a feminine style... The elders looked like they had eaten shit, staring at Chu Ge with all kinds of unfriendly eyes. Chu Ge suspected that if he was left alone, he would be chopped.
Qiuqiu's behavior is really out of character setting, as well as his "understanding" and "prediction" of her. The man who once "understood her better than she herself" seems to have become ineffective as she broke away from the laws of nature.
Qiu Wuji's beautiful eyes moved, and she looked at him with a smile: "Do you still want to cheat to understand me now?"
She gently put her arms around Chu Ge's neck, tiptoed and kissed him: "My man, shouldn't he really understand me because we have been together for so long?"
Chu Ge didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "But the one I really know about you is the type who would rather save face than suffer in vain."
"Hmph." Qiu Wuji snorted twice and sighed, "Maybe it was like that in the past, so I don't blame you..."
Chu Ge burst into tears, Qiuqiu is so nice.
If I change to something more awkward, I can argue with you all day long by saying “you don’t understand me”.
He also knew that this separation had had a huge impact on Qiu Wuji, causing him to change his mind. Wasn't it because of this that he broke free from the setting? Wasn't it also a big impact on him? He was almost going crazy before, and really felt that nothing mattered, as long as he had Qiuqiu.
Same feeling.
"I used to think that there are always some bottom lines that need to be upheld, for example, isn't the only thing a person leaves behind in this world a reputation? Now I feel that nothing matters, as long as we seize the day. Let them grumble if they want. Even if the whole world laughs at me, Qiu Wuji, for being shameless, then I am shameless."
Qiu Wuji took Chu Ge's hand, and they walked side by side towards the pavilion on the cliff.
Xuanji had been staring at them blankly for a long time.
Qiu Wuji smiled and said, "What's wrong? What's that expression?"
Xuanji stammered, "Sect Master, you said this in front of me and you have no shame..."
"Yeah." Qiu Wuji turned around and kissed Chu Ge on the face, then looked at Xuan Ji with a smile: "How comfortable you are, don't you think you were tired of hiding before?"
Xuanji burst into tears: "I was still young..."
Chu Ge rolled up his sleeves and said, "At least hide in front of the little girl..."
"You are the only one who believes that she is still young." Qiu Wuji said indifferently: "She is already sixteen years old. She can get married in this world. You think it is in this world."
"Emmmm... Speaking of a sixteen-year-old Jindan, her future..."
Qiu Wuji glanced back at the direction where Xuan Ji ran away and whispered, "I intend to train her to take over. What do you think?"
Chu Ge was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "If you think she can do it, then train her."
"I have to tell you. If you need to add a paragraph about who will succeed Yunji Sect in the future, this will make sense."
"Yeah... OK."
Chu Ge put his arm around her waist and sat side by side on the edge of the cliff, the two of them leaning against each other and looking out at the sea of clouds.
After the disaster, I really feel like I can't get enough of it, even though I know there's still a lot to do...
"Let's get down to business." Qiu Wuji leaned on his shoulder and took out a book. "The sect's classics that can be expressed in book form are all important records from ancient times, which look solemn. They look like books, but they are made of special materials and will not be damaged."
"I have written about this and mentioned it before."
"Yes, but you can't possibly write about the contents of the classics. The most you've written is that the Sutra Library contains a large number of ancient secrets."
"right."
Qiu Wuji said: "We don't have any records about Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, but luckily we have Black Tortoise. This book describes the story of why our sect collected a piece of Black Tortoise's back armor, which is also related to what you wrote about the Black Tortoise back armor I have in my hand."
She turned the page and they both leaned their heads together to read.
According to historical records, the ancestor of the Yunji Sect accidentally entered a secret cave under the ice while practicing sword skills on the Arctic glacier. At that time, the cave was filled with a lot of sharp, heavy, and murderous auras. The ancestor gained a lot from practicing sword skills there.
At the bottom of the secret cave, a piece of tortoise shell was found. At that time, there was a violent and chaotic aura around it, which turned into a demon god. The ancestor risked his life to get close to the tortoise shell. Just as he touched the tortoise shell, a divine object appeared and blocked the surrounding demonic aura, so he escaped with his life.
The ancestors realized part of the way of heaven from the tortoise shell. Xuanwu is Xuanming, which is in the north, belongs to water, and is yin, so the Yunji Sect's mental methods are mostly related to water. Later, the Yunji Sect was established, also located in the extreme north, with ice and snow all year round.
The ancestor's experience was written in great detail, taking up half of the book. In fact, the only thing of value to Chu Ge and Qiu Wuji was the scene he "felt" when he was realizing the way of heaven on the tortoise shell, but this part was written a bit vaguely.
It's not that he wrote it vaguely on purpose. What the ancestors passed down to the descendants was what they wanted to tell their hearts and minds, in order to carry forward his teachings. But after all, "the way of heaven is mysterious", and what he got was not exhaustive to begin with, so he did his best.
This part says that the world was originally a vast land, with no so-called heaven. Later, the idle Heavenly Dao thought that beings such as the Four Sacred Beasts were too powerful, and the world would lose the soil for ordinary people to exist, so he waved his hand and created another heaven, and placed the overly powerful beings in the heaven.
Qiu Wuji glanced at Chu Ge, and Chu Ge nodded.
His earliest vague setting a few years ago was that there was no heaven, just one world. Didn’t he just not be able to continue writing at that time?
After thinking about it carefully in recent years, I realized that the original setting was not conducive to the world view construction of the work, so it is divided into two realms. Another advantage of dividing the two realms is that the actions of the protagonist and others have a very clear goal - ascension, thus running through the main thread of the entire story.
Corresponding to the understanding of life in the book, the God of Creation, who had nothing to do, waved his hand and divided the heaven.
Therefore, the earliest vague structure was that during the time of Hongmeng, the four sacred beasts and humans were all in one realm.
In order to establish the heaven, all four sacred beasts had to go up there and serve as the gods of the four directions and four seasons, each in charge of one side, which was to establish the four poles.
The ancestor of the Yunji Sect saw a battle on the back armor of the Black Tortoise.
Before Xuanwu ascended to heaven, there was a human creature fighting with Xuanwu.
The battle was described extremely vaguely. Our ancestors at that time were simply unable to withstand a battle of this level and were unable to record it. Only the final result was left behind - the Xuanwu's carapace fell off at that time, and the falling of this small piece of carapace was not important at all. What was really important was that one of the Xuanwu's legs was cut off, and the Xuanwu that later ascended to heaven was just a three-legged turtle.
Our ancestors only saw this.
Chu Ge was horrified.
Is this the Emperor of Heaven doing something outside of the plot, killing Ao and establishing the Four Poles?
