Chapter 37 The Secret of the Divine Tree
Huoxuan was a little stunned. Among the hundreds of "Pengmen clans", an old man who looked very old and afraid of being sixty or seventy years old came up trembling slightly and said respectfully, "Honorable guests, the 'goddy' has not liked others to touch her since she was a child. On behalf of the 'Pengmen clan', I would like to thank you for your life-saving kindness just now. If it weren't for you, not only the 'gods' will be insurable, but also the 'god tree' will suffer. You must be the messengers sent by the 'god tree' to save us.
With the voice, the old man knelt down respectfully, and the hundreds of Pengmen people also knelt down one after another. Soon, except for the braided little girl "godess", no one in the Pengmen clan stood.
Huoxuan was shocked and hurried to help the old man. He said repeatedly, "Everyone, get up quickly. You can't do this."
Gu Fan was looking at the quirky braided little girl. Although she was painted with various patterns on her face, she could still see that her face was very beautiful. Her eyebrows, eyes, nose and mouth were very beautiful. When she grew up, she was afraid she was also a beauty. Now she is close to the trap, and she will not suffer losses in the future.
I couldn't help smiling and asked, "My name is Gu Fan. What's your name?" Does the 'little black' you just said mean it? As he spoke, he pointed to the horse lying on the ground.
The girl with long braids nodded, looked at Gu Fan, and lowered her head again. She felt that although the boy in front of her was only four or five years old, much younger than herself, she did not dare to touch Gu Fan's eyes.
"Danaya."
The girl with long braids said softly, reported her name, and then went to see the Jiaoma on the ground. She stretched out her little hand and gently stroked the black hair on the Jiaoma's body, and ignored Gu Fan. Obviously, in her mind, Jiaoma was much more important than Gu Fan.
"Danaya." Gu Fan read it gently and wrote it down. Seeing that she didn't pay much attention to herself, she didn't care at all. She also learned to squat down beside the Jiaoma like Danaya. Just as she was about to reach out and touch the Jiaoma, suddenly the Jiaoma lying on the ground turned its head, grinned, and roared at him. Looking at the frame, it seemed that she was about to jump up and attack Gu Fan. Gu Fan was shocked.
"Don't get close to 'Xiaohei'. Xiaohei doesn't like men."
Danaa was busy gently stroking the Jiao Ma and comforting it. Under the touch of Dana, the Jiao Ma slowly calmed down his anger and lay down again.
"Fer." Gu Fan stood up, looked at the horse, and scolded in his heart: "This damn beast is as lustful as me. Only women are allowed to touch it, and men are not allowed to approach. That's right now, Bai Jianxiong also said that this thing is called 'unicorn' in foreign countries, and only virgins are allowed to approach. Grandma's, not only lustful, but also virginity. Knot, this beast is not a good thing. He deserves to be hurt.
On the other side, under the continuous persuasion of Huoxuan and Bai Jianxiong, these hundreds of Pengmen people stood up respectfully. The leading old man himself signed up, called Lugufu, who was the leader of the Pengmen clan.
These "Pengmen" people have lived on "Pengmen Island" for generations, with "Pengmen" as their surname. The full name of Lugufu should be called Pengmen Lugufu, and Danaya, who is known as the "godess", should be called Pengmen Danaya.
These "Pengmen" people do not cultivate the power of their ancestors' blood, so they are a group of ordinary people. On this "Pengmen Island", they rely on hunting, farming and fishing for a living. They rarely have contact with the outside world, and their folk customs are simple.
Under the questioning of the fire, they knew that the sackcloth robe old men and others they had just killed were the "King of Big Tooth" and his accomplices, the leader of Daya Island, about a few hundred nautical miles away from "Pengmen Island".
This "King of Big Tooth" itself is a "third-level ancestral disciple". He is so brave and fierce that he has a group of warriors under him. The strength of "Big Tooth Island" is much better than that of "Pengmen Island".
Whether it is "Daro Island" or "Pangmen Island", the sea area and major islands in this area are under the rule of the "Wanxiang State".
This time, the 70th birthday of the king of the "King of Vientiane" is approaching. The old man in the "King of Tooth" linen robe knew that the king of the "King of Vientiane" loved the wood carving model. He invited the famous wood carving master of the "Sawing Country" to carve a huge "Wanxiang" model.
But it lacks a whole piece of wood. If it is spelled out with a few pieces, it will not be precious. Therefore, the "Big Tooth King" thought of the "divine tree" on "Pengmen Island".
I was going to cut it down and make a huge "Wanxiang" wood carving model, but unexpectedly triggered this disturbance and died on "Pengmen Island".
"We killed the 'King of Big Tooth'. I don't know if it will cause trouble for you?" I'm looking for questions.
Lugufu shook his head and said excitedly, "The surname of the King of Big Tooth is fierce. Thousands of residents on 'Big Tooth Island' also dare not say anything. Now that the King of Big Tooth is dead, it's too late for those residents to be happy. No one will avenge him. Moreover, the gods are so strong that even the King of Big Tooth was easily killed, and no one dares to go. Come here to seek revenge and cause trouble. Even the 'Wanxiang Country' won't care about this kind of thing.
Hearing Luguv say this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Bai Jianxiong whispered, "I have also heard about this 'Vientiane Country'. It is a small island country that rules some islands. It is relatively loose. Basically, the islands are independent. There should be no one to investigate the death of this big tooth king."
Hearing what Bai Jianxiong said, and looking at the grateful and simple look of these "Pengmen" people in front of him, Huoxuan had made a plan to stay here for a while.
So when Luguf asked Huoxuan about their intention, Huoxuan briefly said that he was from the "Southern Holy Country" and wanted to find a place to stay overseas, but he has not found a suitable place yet.
When Lugufu heard Huoxuan's words, he immediately made an invitation, hoping that Huoxuan and others would live on Pengmen Island for a long time.
The fire was not polite, but nodded with a smile.
Lugufu was overjoyed.
That night, the "Pengmen" people held a grand welcome ceremony, raised the fire, danced the "Pengmen dance" unique to the "Pengmen people", and welcomed the fire greetings and others.
The bodies of the Big Tooth King and others have been dragged to the back of the earth to be buried. Danaya and Jiaoma "Xiaohei" did not participate in this grand welcome ceremony, but quietly left. Even Lugufu only knew that Danaya lived in the deep mountains, and he did not know where he lived.
For him, the "godde" Danaya is full of mystery.
At the banquet, Bai Jianxiong asked Lugufu about the origin of the "goddy" Danaya.
What he is really curious about is not Danaya, but the horse.
This is a real divine object.
"Speaking of which, this was ten years ago. Danaa was discovered by us by the 'divine tree'. At that time, she should have just been born and wrapped in huge lotus leaves. We took her in, thinking that this was the will of the 'divine tree', and when we took in Danaya, there was a sacred 'unicorn'. The beast appeared and watched us take Danaya back, and then left.
"Later, Danaa slowly grew up. Only she could communicate with this 'unicorn' and carried her into the deep mountains. Finally, she rarely returned to the village. We don't know exactly where she lived."
Bai Jianxiong nodded. He knew that these people called Jiaoma a "unicorn". In their mind, the "unicorn" is a sacred beast. Of course, Danaya, who can bring the "unicorn" close to her, is also an extraordinary person. No wonder she is called a "godde".
As for how the unicorn appeared on the "Ponmen Island", Lugufu didn't know.
After the welcome ceremony, Gu Fan quietly slipped out of the stockade where the "Pengmen people" lived and went towards the "divine tree" in the minds of the "Pengmen people".
At the root of the "divine tree", a big pit was dug out by the people brought by the "King of Big Tooth" during the day. Now of course, the big pit has been filled. However, in the process of filling, Gu Fan was on one side at that time. He accidentally found something. Now the people of the "Fengmen" are resting, and he is ready to quietly see what's going on.
He has always been curious.
Fortunately, this divine tree is still a little far from "Pengmen Village". At night here, no one can be seen quietly. Although Gu Fan is young, he is also a "first-class ancestor", and there is nothing to be afraid of.
But when he arrived at the edge of the tree, he found that the filled pit next to the tree had been dug up again.
"Would, did anyone besides me also notice this secret? Did you get on first?" Gu Fan rushed forward, almost at the same moment. A figure flashed from the big pit, and a sword was on his shoulder.
"Yeah? You?" The comer was stunned and soon put away the sword again.
The figure that suddenly flashed out of the pit turned out to be a fire.
"Sister Fire? Why are you... Yes, you also noticed that there is something strange here?" Gu Fan was stunned at first, and soon he suddenly became curious. It seemed that he was not the only one with sharp eyes and curiosity.
Huoxuan nodded and said curiously, "Gu Fan, have you found it too?"
"Hey hey, at that time, I was at the edge of the pit at that time. These Pengmen people were too in awe of this divine tree, so they didn't dare to look at it more and filled the pit, but I noticed it. It's just that I stayed at the edge of the pit except for those Pengmen people at that time. I remember that you were far away. How could you find it, Sister Huo? Your eyes are so sharp."
Huoxuan shook his head with a smile and said, "I didn't see anything, but the skills I practiced were a little special. I could feel the unusual changes in the air. I felt it, so I took a closer look at night. If I feel right, maybe this is a holy place for cultivation."
"Well, have you seen it below?" Gu Fan didn't know what the holy place was, but he just felt curious.
"I just dug through the bottom, and you came. Remember not to disturb the Pengmen people. This is the divine tree in their minds. If you know that we are like this, I'm afraid you will think that we are disrespectful to their divine tree."
The fire whispered and went down the hole again.
