Ghostly Tomb

Chapter 1416 History of Immortal Valley
"What is a fairy?",
Bao Ping looked at the huge black stone tablet and said,
"Why are the people in this valley called immortals? What relationship do they have with gods? Shouldn't the descendants of mountain gods become demigods?"

"In essence, immortals have nothing to do with gods!",
Standing beside Bao Ping, Chen Zhi said softly,
"Actually, for a long time in the past, the word "immortal" was easily confused with god.

In the historical materials of mankind, the concepts of the two words "immortal" and "shen" are also very confused. Some people even think that immortals are gods, and gods are immortals, so they have always been collectively referred to as immortals.

But in fact, there is an essential difference between gods and immortals.

In Jiang's Zangshu Pavilion, there are clear records about gods and immortals.

A god is born a god, and all his abilities come from his noble blood, which cannot be changed through acquired efforts.

And "immortal" is a general term for people with extraordinary abilities.

Many "immortals" were just ordinary humans or animals at first, or even some extinct large ancient creatures, like ghosts, monsters and other things.

Through a certain method, they obtained the ability to transcend the mortal world, possessed wisdom, and thus cultivated to become immortals, and were able to cast some spells.

But at the same time, because they are barbaric and undeveloped, they may also cause harm to the world and ruin lives.

But no matter how powerful these immortals are, they will never be able to compare with gods, because their strength is not derived from blood, but through acquired cultivation. This is the essential difference between immortals and gods.

And some powerful "immortals" were exceptionally canonized as immortal gods because of their immortal meritorious deeds.

For example..., the Changbai Mountain God who has already died in the tomb of the mountain god, Chaoha Zhanye! "

"It's very interesting to make immortals gods!",
Bao Ping smiled faintly, then turned to look at Chen Zhi,

"You also said just now that this old mountain god named Chaoha Zhanye has some disgraceful background.

What is it?

Also, why do you call him Old Demon?This name doesn't seem very nice.

In my memory, the new gods conferred by the Lord Jiang Shang should all be descendants of gods with both virtue and virtue.

I've heard you say with my own ears that conferring gods is just a ceremony, and those demigods who have been conferred already have the qualifications of gods, so what qualifications does this mountain god have to be conferred as gods? "

"This... is probably a special case!",
Looking at the black stone tablet, Chen Zhi felt an inexplicable sense of shame permeating from his heart. He looked at the hand-carved inscriptions again, and then said softly,

"I don't know what Jiang Ziya thought at the time.

But when I came here last time, I saw some very old materials in the tomb of Lord Chaoha Zhan!

It is said that this Chaoha Zhanye once performed divination for Jiang Ziya during King Wu's defeat of Zhou, and made military exploits.

So it was exceptionally canonized.

There are some very ancient books and scrolls in the tomb of the gods, and I don't know what age it is!
The colors are bright and the style is rich, just like the current New Year pictures, it is the style of the most primitive Jurchen tribe!
On those paintings, when this mountain god was an old devil, he had a green face with fangs and a head hanging from his waist, looking very terrifying.

It should be... a creature that eats people!

Moreover, he is very cruel. According to the records above, when he knew that his daughter Fokulun had given birth to a human offspring, he actually tortured his daughter to death, and then locked her in the tomb of God with control chains.

I've seen the skeleton of the Goddess Fokulun, it's really horrible, even if thousands of years have passed, she can't escape! "

After Chen Zhi finished speaking, he turned his head and looked at the pure and kind Immortal Valley villagers in front of him.

"But no matter what, this bloodline has survived!

I heard from the fairy people here that the most primitive goddess of Changbai Mountain, Hezeming, is very gentle and kind, so her daughter, Goddess Fokulun, has inherited her temper.

Then there was the Aixinjueluo Dynasty, and then there was this Immortal Valley.

And that Chaoha Zhan Lord should have turned into a pile of dry bones, that is its fate.

This may be the so-called fate!

"Is the man-eating earth demon a god? Hehe~~",
Bao Ping sneered coldly, then looked sideways carefully, the divine inscription on the black stone was like appreciating a painting, then sneered again,
"Abolish the original beautiful goddess in the mountain, and then seal the old devil here as the new mountain god, and forcefully bestow the goddess on the old devil.

Hehe~~",
Bao Ping looked at Chen Zhi with a strange smile,

"Patriarch Chen, it seems that our god is not very picky when choosing a new god!"

"This……",
Chen Zhi felt speechless, he didn't know how to reply, nor how to defend Jiang Ziya.

Afterwards, there was only silence...

The villagers were very enthusiastic, and they led the team all the way into the village. Although it was already bright now, there were still large palace lanterns on both sides of the road, which illuminated the jade ground here even brighter.

Immortal Valley is a small town with very complete public facilities. Although the villagers here are isolated from the outside world, it does not mean that they are completely ignorant of outside technology.

Moreover, the immortals have the way of life of the immortals, and the Tang family at the foot of the mountain often travels here, and things like generators are also sent over.

Modern technology, coupled with the unique religious atmosphere of ancient shamanism, has turned everything here into a semi-civilized living state, which is quite exotic and makes people linger.

The villagers sent the whole team to the biggest house in the village, which is the big house of the village chief Xuanlin.

Xuanlin's house is very big, the whole yard is full of cedars, covered with silver and covered with white snow.

There is a large oven on the ground in the yard, surrounded by a circle of wooden chairs. The carvings on the wooden chairs are very interesting. Except for the pure white snow, they are spotless and clean. It's like a fairy house.

Xuanlin's house is a brick pavilion with a warm floor, and a long kang mat outside, all of which are full of people, just like the imperial palace in Qing palace dramas.

After everyone entered, they all sat down on the kang mats. The warriors and people in black gathered in the courtyard. Xuanlin ordered the stove to be lit to keep everyone warm.

In an instant, the whole yard was very lively.

The residents of Immortal Valley were very grateful to Chen Zhi and the others, and Xuanlin didn't say too much, they didn't know all about the danger they were about to face.

Even though they knew that Chen Zhi and the others were here on business this time, they still insisted on arranging a large banquet, setting up an oven in the middle of the yard and setting up shelves.

The wild beasts in the mountains have basically disappeared since the last mutant incident, and it is estimated that it will take a long time to restore the ecological circle.

But there are a lot of materials sent by the Tang family here, including wild beasts from Changbai Mountain, which are released into the valley for free-range breeding to reproduce in the ecological circle.

There are also many large live cattle and sheep, which are given to each household. Now some villagers suggest that a few sheep should be slaughtered to entertain distinguished guests.

But Chen Zhi stopped them, the future will be long, and after the mission is over, this kind of banquet can be done anytime.

But it is not suitable now, because the place where they are now is on the top of Changbai Mountain.

It is too close to the depths of Changbai Mountain, which is the deepest ghost city of Fengdu below here...

　I'm sorry, I've had two updates in the past two days. I haven't slept for 40 hours. I can't sleep after taking sleeping pills like crazy. I must succeed tonight.
