Chapter 17 is just a legend
There are three lines of words on the paper. Although the handwriting is a little stiff, it is also quite beautiful, with a little soul. It can be seen that this sea god sister has also worked hard on Yanlong's words.
It said on the paper: "The grass covers a pig, leaving a flood on its back, and walking in ice and snow for seven days." Twenty-one words.
What the hell does this mean? Su Yong and old man Hong changed their eyes and frowned.
"Where did you go when you sent people to find Baihua Mountain before?" Su Yong asked.
Haifeisi, the sister of Haishen, shook her head: "This riddle of Baihua Mountain is only recorded in books, and no one can guess it, so our previous clans went directly to the north, hoping to find it by chance in the ice and snow world of Mobei. Unfortunately, it was all in vain, and some people did not come back at all. I'm afraid it has become an ice sculpture in the northernmost snow.
Old man Hong shook his head with a smile: "The land of ice and snow is not unique to the north. There is snow everywhere on the earth. As far as I know, there are many places in the land of Yanlong alone that have been sealed, but the coverage area is different."
Hai Feisi nodded and said, "Baihua Mountain is frozen for thousands of miles, so we have skipped those places with less possibility. As for the northernmost polar glacier, nature is the most likely. And at that time, there were also rumors that some places on the other side of the polar region were always as bright as day, and there was no night. If you are not mistaken, it should be close to Baihua Mountain.
Su Yong nodded, shook his head again, and asked, "Where did your sculptor see these flying eagles and horses in the temple?" Since no one has been to Baihua Mountain, where does the image of the eagle and horse come from?
Hai Feisi smiled and pointed to the beautiful statues in the temple and said, "A thousand years ago, there were many strange creatures on the earth, as well as those fierce monsters of the sea clan, but now they don't know where they have hidden. This kind of flying eagle horse was also on the earth at that time, but it was all wings and did not have four wings. This four-winged eagle horse is carved according to the legend of Baihua Mountain, and the size of the body is based on the earth eagle horse we have seen.
Su Yong nodded again, just staring at the paper in the hand of the old man Hong, and suddenly said, "Why do I think these ancient words are very similar to today's words?"
The ancient words he wrote on this paper are written, and the translation is written by a woman's handwriting below. In contrast, it is a bit like the difference between traditional Chinese characters and simplified Chinese characters today.
Hai Feisi nodded and said, "Yes, ancient Chinese and the words you use today are square words, but the strokes are slightly different, and the radicals of some words are slightly different." She is familiar with the two words, and her experience is naturally better than the other three.
Su Yong took another look at the paper and suddenly took it from the old man Hong. He smiled and said, "It's not difficult to explain this riddle in today's Yanlong words."
Serum wind was surprised and said, "Can you figure it out?"
The woman also stared at him in surprise, but Mr. Hong continued to meditate.
"This is a word puzzle," Su Yong gently wrote a word next to the first line of words with Meiyu: "The grass covers a pig. In today's Yanlong script, there is a pig hidden under the head of the grass character, the grass head with a cover, and a pig, which is the word 'meng'. ( The word 'shi' in the text means pig, which is pronounced as shi)"
"The second line is not complicated," Su Yong continued to write the second word: "The flood retreat is left on the back, the top of the 'back' is 'north', and the bottom of the 'stay' is the 'field', the flood retreat, and the waterside of the word 'hong' is removed, that is, 'complicated'. These three words are combined. It's just a word 'ji', which is just a crossword puzzle.
All three of them widened their eyes. What he said was simple, but everyone had already wanted to break their heads. Even a thousand years ago, I'm afraid those wise men thought too complicated. They always wondered whether somewhere looked like grass covering pigs, or a piece of land was like a back, and a river was like sweat...
"What does the last sentence mean?" Sister Neptune's shining eyes are like stars.
"Don't think too complicated," Su Yong laughed: "The last sentence is boring at all, just to walk in the ice and snow for seven days. It's that simple."
But what do 'Meng' and 'Ji' mean? Do they represent the place? Su Yong frowned and looked at Miss Haifei.
"Mongod? "Yi?" Haifeisi suddenly clapped her hands and exclaimed, "My God, we are going in the wrong direction at all. It turns out that Baihua Mountain is not in the north at all, but after the Sea of Death. Oh, my God, you... How did you come up with these crossword puzzles?
Serum Feng smiled bitterly beside him and said, "If even General Su can't think of it, I'm afraid no one can think of it anymore."
"What? You...you are Su Yong?" Hai Feisi looked at him in surprise, with a strange light in her eyes.
Although she has lived in an underground mausoleum for a long time, she often haunts at night. If there are any major events that have happened recently on the land of Yanlong, except for the peace of Yanmeng in the north, the battle between the Beijing Poetry Competition and the southeast and west, it is not worth her attention to. But these most amazing things involve a person's name.
The name is the miracle general Su Yong.
It is Su Yong, who shocked the whole Yanmeng empire with martial energy, and Wenneng shocked tens of millions of scholars.
Is he the young general in front of him? This Yanlong general who escapes into the ranks of martial arts masters at a young age?
Huffy's mouth is wide open. When she found her gaffe, she hurriedly covered her delicate cherry lips.
Su Yong nodded to her with some embarrassment and smiled, "I'm sorry, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Su Yong. The awakened Su is forever.
"Wake up? Forever?" The beautiful face of Neptune's sister suddenly smiled like a flower: "Su... The general's name is so good. It's really my blessing to meet General Su."
Su Yonglao blushed and said in a sweat, "I dare not. It's also an honor for me to wait if I can do my best for you... brother, a human peerless hero."
Old Hong nodded repeatedly with the serum wind. Haifei, the sister of Neptune, didn't know if she heard him clearly, but suddenly blushed.
The brilliance of the jewelry is reflected on the ice and snow-like face, white and red, which is different.
She calmed down, but her bright smile soon faded: "Meng Ji is another name for the sea of death thousands of years ago. That place is more terrible than the polar glacier. Legend has it is impossible to cross the sea of death at all, let alone the black snow state behind the sea."
What is the sea of death, what is the black snow state? Everyone was confused when they heard it.
Hai Feisi said slowly: "Walking all the way from the west to the Western Regions, about half a month, you will see a huge and boundless desert. The desert used to be called the 'Sea of Death'. The desert is boundless, and the scorching sun is thousands of miles away. Not to mention ordinary people, even immortals are difficult to do. The book says that from ancient times to today, no one has been able to cross on foot.
Old Hong exclaimed, "Are you talking about the 'Ulanshahai' on the edge of the Western Regions?"
Hai Feisi nodded: "We used to call it the Sea of Death, but now it is said to be called the Ulansha Sea."
Old man Hong smiled bitterly and said, "How is that possible? Then you can't go in at all. That's simply a human region. Not to mention people, even ghosts dare not go. I have read a travelogue written by the old monk of the Three Venerable People before, saying that he had encountered the sand sea monster in the overseas encirclement of Ulansha. He has also turned back from the periphery and no longer dares to cross the thunder pool.
Su Yong frowned, but did not express his opinion. He just asked, "What's going on in Black Snow State?"
Hai Feisi sighed sadly, "Since no one can cross the sea of death, no one can see the black state. Black Snow was recorded in ancient books thousands of years ago. At that time, there was also a huge flying animal called Six-Claw Pterosaur, which was extremely violent. There was a peerless strong man in ancient times who tamed one and let it take it across a large part of the sea of death in the air. He saw a black spot at the end of the sand sea, and according to the feeling at that time. The temperature difference and the sky know that it is a frozen place for thousands of miles.
Old man Hong shook his head, indicating that he did not understand these things.
"Is there any previous collection of books here?" Su Yong asked.
Hai Feisi shook his head: "Under the tide, books are the most intestable to collect... But I still remember this description of Black Snow State. The book says that because the six-clawed pterosaur had exhausted its strength at that time, the strong pioneer and the mount both crashed into the sand sea. Her face faded: "This strong man is also the only one who has ever seen Black Snow State."
Serum wind asked, "If he has crashed, how can the notes be passed down?" Su Yong and Mr. Hong were also a little surprised.
Ha Feisi smiled bitterly and said, "His note is hidden in a sealed backpack. It may be what he wrote on his deathbed... I don't know how many years later, a storm in the sand sea actually blew his bag to the edge of the sand sea... From then on, no one dared to step into the sand sea."
Everyone looked at each other and was speechless for a long time.
Sea of Death, Black Snow. That's all a legend.
"Now, do you still want to look for Baihua Mountain?" After Hai Feisi finished speaking, she sighed for a long time. Even if you know this result thousands of years ago, there is nothing you can do. The people who go there are just looking for death.
Both Serum Feng and Mr. Hong were pale and silent. Just when the atmosphere was a little stiff, Su Yong suddenly smiled and said:
"Why not?"
