Chapter 409 Sleeping with God
Xia Cun, I...
So abrupt!!
People who had nothing to do with each other were pulled together as if by force. Black Snake's tone was full of fatalism, and there was an inexplicable sadness.
Many complicated thoughts flashed through my mind, and the originally streamlined thoughts were once again confused. There were so many clues that I couldn't grasp the key points.
Not only me, Brother Yaozi and the others were not much better either. Their expressions of shock were undisguised. They were all the masters of swords and fires. How could we not tell whether what Black Snake said was true or false? But it was precisely because Black Snake said
is true, the matter is more intriguing.
Only Wushuang was not interested in this. He kept his sword in front of me, his body slightly arched, like a leopard ready to pounce on its prey at any time.
Hiss...
Behind the bronze coffin came the sound of snakes, occasionally mixed with the sound of breaking cloth. After everything calmed down, a woman in black slowly walked out from behind. Her long gauze skirt was held on the ground. She was very beautiful, but not dignified.
, with a very pointed chin, anyone else would probably think of "snake spirit" immediately.
This is indeed a beautiful snake, with a voluptuous figure, and it looks like a smoky looking snake when walking, but its face is not very good-looking, and it is very weak.
Needless to say, this is what the black snake transformed into.
Her charming eyes were as silky as silk, and she looked carefully at Wushuang's eyes as her eyes moved, and she praised him: "What a man!"
After saying this, he said faintly: "Your lineage always has the ability to confuse people's minds. There are always loyal and courageous heroes who come to you one after another, which makes people enviable and hateful."
Does this mean she knows my ancestors?
I narrowed my eyes slightly and raised my chin towards the bronze coffin: "Who is in the coffin?"
"Su Mu."
The woman in black was very measured. She stopped when she was dozens of steps away from us and stopped moving forward. I breathed a sigh of relief. If she wanted to continue to come closer, I didn't know whether I should use the knife in her hand.
greet her.
Su Mu?!
I remember this name. Before the Xia and Shang Dynasties, names were not quite the same as ours now.
Take Chang Yao for example. Actually her first name is Chang and her surname is Yao.
This is a Xia tomb, and so is the life of the person in the coffin. His name is Su and his surname is Mu.
I have never heard of such a person in history, but the Xia Dynasty did not leave many names, so it is normal that I have not heard of him.
"Descendants of Limu?"
After thinking about it for a while, I had some understanding in my mind: "During the Battle of Mingtiao, this person should have led the tiger warriors to leave before the battle and go to the north to resist the black mist, right?"
This tomb was prepared for that group of tiger warriors.
In the Xia and Shang cemeteries, it is not uncommon for clans and even entire tribes to be buried together. It seems that it is not surprising that an army is buried together. However, at that time, we had entered a class society, and the cemetery naturally had to be divided.
High and low, this tomb is alone, which is enough to explain the identity of the person in the coffin.
In other words, this tomb is the main tomb in the entire tomb.
Pannu is the guardian of the tomb and will never allow the dove to occupy the magpie's nest in the main tomb. This shows that the black snake is not an outsider, it belongs to the main tomb!
Buried person or guardian?
Black Snake has a very high attitude, and she tells me both inside and outside her words that Pannu must listen to her and report everything to her, which is enough to illustrate her status.
The tomb is the world of the dead, and it has its own set of rules and hierarchies. No matter whether you are a victim or a person buried with you, there is no status like the black snake.
This is very interesting, and it reminds me of an ancient burial tradition mentioned in the "Sutra of Ten Thousand Burials", which is called sleeping with the gods.
The so-called sleeping with a god does not mean actually sleeping with a god. This is related to the totem belief in the early days of ignorance.
It is said that only those who made outstanding contributions among the ancient ancestors and whose achievements were recognized by the gods were qualified to enjoy this kind of treatment, which was nothing more than having an animal in a totem next to them when they died.
For example, if there is a tribe that uses a bear as a totem, then when a big figure in their tribe dies, a live bear will be placed in the tomb. This live bear will be the top talker in the tomb, and its status will even be higher than that of the owner of the tomb.
In a sense, he is the spokesperson of the gods. Even if he opens the coffin and eats the dead, he cannot interfere.
This black snake is the totem god in this tomb!!
After Su Mu died, because of his great achievements, he was qualified to sleep with the gods, so people caught a black snake and put it in the tomb. Unexpectedly, a few years ago, this black snake actually survived.
And he became a sperm!!
Snake as totem.
This reminds me of the Fuxi clan, the ancestor of humanities. The Fuxi clan used snakes as their totems. By the time of the Yellow Emperor, it had evolved into using dragons as their totems.
The owner of the tomb, Su Mu, is a descendant of Limu. They use snakes as their totem. Doesn't it mean that Limu himself believes in the snake totem?
Could he be...from the Fuxi tribe?
In response to all my guesses, the woman in black nodded and agreed to them all, and told me bluntly that her name was Liu Jiao. As Su Mu's companion, she should take Mu as her surname, but she was not very willing because she was called Liu Jiao back then.
When she was caught here, she was still an ignorant little snake. She was somehow tainted with a huge cause and effect. No one would be happy to change her. The word "Liu" just pointed out who her family was, and it also contained what she wanted.
The long-cherished wish to turn a dragon into a dragon.
When she mentioned this, her eyes darkened. She had already reached the critical moment of turning into a dragon, but she failed to seek the title. She became like this now. It was strange that she could be happy. She also said that after the Fuxi family settled on the marriage, the clan
Some of them were unwilling, so they went far to the north. This is the origin of the Limu tribe. Although they did not like the rules set by the Fuxi clan, they always regarded snakes as their totem.
Liu Jiao was very calm and did not shy away from talking about these things. I also let go of many of my guardings. I simply sat on the floor in the tomb and said softly: "You said you have met my ancestor? Who is it?"
"I don't know. I was just a snake at that time and had not experienced those years, but I know the origin of the weapon in your hand. Back then... Pannu saw it!"
Liu Jiao's eyes fell on the Tianguan Blade in my hand, and she said softly: "Otherwise, do you think you can really walk out of the hall below? The tiger warriors never know what fear is. Once they are in a fierce battle, they will fight to the death!"
I was a little surprised, I didn't expect it to be like this.
No wonder I only stabbed Pannu without losing his combat effectiveness at all, but I used the Tianguan Blade to force him back several times. The reason for this was not because of the power of the Tianguan Blade, but because the Tianguan Blade carried a huge
favor?
The answer is already obvious, our etiquette officers were involved in that war!
I have a headache. Why are there signs of the etiquette officer being active everywhere?
It was the end of summer and the beginning of Shang Dynasty, three to four thousand years ago!
Regarding that period... I don’t even know who is alive in my family!!
It has been so long ago that many things cannot be traced back.
However, it looks like it should be a good relationship.
What role did he play in it?
It was about my own family, so I became interested, blinked my eyes and said softly: "Tell me carefully!"
"It's hard to explain. The matter is very complicated and difficult to explain in one word!"
Liu Jiao also sat cross-legged across from me, her head drooped and she pondered for a long time. She raised her head and said meaningfully: "He... ended the war!!"
Chapter completed!
