Chapter 212 The Legend of Gluttony
"Could it be that what is said in the historical records is false?" The son of Jinyun's words seemed to contain some hidden meaning, which made Zeng Yifan confused: "What happened at that time?"

"Sure enough, he is an interesting person, but he came to ask me about my life experience when I couldn't protect myself." During the questioning, the son of Jinyun suddenly smiled: "Forget it, there are not many people in the world who are pleasing to my eyes, and I can barely count you as one. Besides, you It can be regarded as a coincidence that Chi You's soul was freed, so I will tell you all about it."

One person and one soul sat cross-legged on the ground facing each other, and under the melodious voice of Jinyun's son, a mystery of an ancient legend was gradually revealed.
"It all starts with Taotie's origin. That Taotie was originally Chiyou, the king of the three seedlings."

San Miao, that is, Chi You, the leader of the Miao Man Group.The Miao Man Group is a thriving tribal community. Although it is located in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, its social development level is not lower than that of the Yellow River Basin.It can't help being significantly higher than the Yellow River Basin in terms of agriculture, pottery, and textiles, and the social division of labor and exchanges are more developed than those in the Central Plains.

In particular, the Miaoman Group was the first to discover copper mines and mastered metal refining and forging technology.

The strength of the Miaoman group and the use of metals made the leaders of the tribal community in the Yellow River Basin feel threatened, so there was a predatory war against the Miaoman group led by the Yellow Emperor.

In order to give this war a reasonable excuse, the Yellow Emperor gave the "lord of the Three Miao", that is, Chi You, a number of crimes: "Miao people don't use their spirits, and they are punished, but the punishment of five abuses is called law. Kill the innocent, disobedience to the letter, and curse the alliance"

After Chi You was defeated and decapitated, his spirit was attached to the body of Taotie, a strange beast.

The Yellow Emperor, who became the king and defeated the bandits, and defeated Chi You, was gradually beautified as the embodiment of justice, wisdom and strength, and he was the mighty emperor.And Chi You, who transformed into a strange beast, Taotie, became synonymous with cruelty and greed, and Taotie was even listed as one of the four evils in ancient times.

The son of the Jinyun family was born in the era of Emperor Shun. He has been proficient in Yin-Yang and Five Elements since he was a child, and he is very familiar with the theory of Bagua.When he was young, he was unavoidably a little arrogant, and what he did was often incompatible with the people of the clan, for which he was punished a lot by the clan leader.

In order to escape, the son of Jinyun chose to go out for a trip, but happened to encounter a wounded monster on the way.He recognized it as the legendary glutton at a glance, and although he was a little scared in his heart, he still cured it out of inexplicable curiosity and sympathy.I also learned that it was actually the Yellow Emperor who first launched the war. After defeating the Sanmiao Group, Chi You was blamed for all the crimes.

Enraged, the son of the Jinyun clan returned to the clan with Taotie, told the clan chief about it and threatened to reveal the truth to the world.As a descendant of the Yellow Emperor, the patriarch knew that announcing the truth would definitely damage the reputation of the ancestors, so he secretly informed Emperor Shun if he couldn't persuade him.

Emperor Shun was furious when he heard the news, and listed the five major crimes committed by Jinyun's son: slandering ancestors, cronies, villains, raising gluttons, despising the royal power, and instigating chaos.

Outnumbered, the sons of the Jinyun clan escaped from the clan riding Taotie.But when he fled to the southwest region, he was trapped by the pre-set fire circle.

Emperor Shun led a team to arrive and cast a spell to imprison one man and one beast.Originally, metal can restrain wood, but Emperor Shun went against the principles of the five elements and used a special wooden awl to assassinate Jinyun's son and Taotie.Afterwards, in order to strictly keep the secret, Emperor Shun exiled the entire Jinyun clan to the southwest.

Although he was severely injured, Taotie, who was in the body of a god and demon, did not die, but his vitality was seriously injured.With its help, the spirit of Jinyun's son merged with it and became one.

"It's ridiculous to be greedy for food and bribes, haha..."

The son of Jinyun let out a stern laugh and continued: "People in the world only know the appearance but don't know what's inside. In fact, those hypocrites are just stealing and plundering in the name of proper way."

The tragic story was particularly shocking in the indifferent voice of Jinyun's son. It was not a legendary story, but a history that actually happened, which completely ran counter to Zeng Yifan's previous truth-like knowledge.

"Things have been going on for more than 6000 years, but you are the first person to listen to my story." Jinyun's son sighed while stroking the Taotie under him.

"Chi You has been imprisoned for too long, and your vitality has been severely injured, but how can you, as Chi You's spirit, come and go freely?" Zeng Yifan asked quickly, feeling a trace of murderous intent in his intuition, is he going to do something?
Yes, often hearing all the secrets is not far from death.

"It's very simple. Thanks to those greedy and hypocritical people in the world, I borrowed the power of some people to move a little bit." A sly smile appeared on his face.

"It's just because I'm greedy for money and good things and I'm pretentious, so I use all the spirit of the mediocre people in the world." The son of Jinyun sneered.

Zeng Yifan couldn't help being taken aback when he heard this, could it be that the son of the Jinyun family has already set up something without people knowing it?What will this game be?
While thinking about it, there was a sudden chill around him, and a piece of grotesque fragments flashed by. Zeng Yifan found that he was no longer in the middle-aged woman's room, but entered another space.

"Don't think too hard, since you are the first person to hear me tell that story, I'll let you understand it all today." The voice of Jinyun's son rang in his ears.

His eyes lit up, and there was a busy business scene around him, which should be the scene of a certain business district.

The crowded and bustling roads are lined with shops and shopping malls, and some jewelry advertisements are exaggeratedly hung in front of the buildings.At the intersection of the main street and the small road, some carts and street stalls are also crowded.

Zeng Yifan noticed that there were some strange light spots flickering in the shopping malls, shops and even those street stalls. Looking around, there were also such light spots flickering on the pedestrians on the road and on the front windows of cars.What it is?The light spots seem to contain a similar shape, but it is impossible to see exactly.

"Your eyes are sharp, maybe you can look more carefully now?" Following the words of Jinyun's son, the light spots on shopping malls, shops, street stalls, pedestrians, and vehicles were partially magnified and neatly arranged in front of Zeng Yifan. It feels like the screen of a security surveillance system.

"Pixiu?!" Those spots of light turned out to be Pixiu accessories made of different materials such as gold, jade, crystal, and wood!

In recent years, it is indeed very popular to wear Pixiu accessories, because Pixiu is a mythical beast that wards off evil spirits and gathers wealth. Is this the situation set up by the son of Jinyun?
Zeng Yifan was a little speechless, is this a big money-making trick set up by Guangshi Enhui?
"Don't be short-sighted because of familiarity, take a closer look!" Jinyun's son sneered.

Zeng Yifan actually found that the Pixiu jewelry in front of him was several times bigger. This is... Taotie? !
