Chapter 376 One day, we will return to our hometown
Shao Xuan looked at the animal skin roll in his hand. This was the tenth picture.
There was food brought by the witch next to him, but Shao Xuan touched him at all. He started to look at it since he sat down and until now, except for the animal skin roll in his hand, he had never looked at anything else.
When Shao Xuan was telling the story of another tribe with the witch and the leader here, the two felt that the experience of the other group was really too hard. But now seeing the things in his hands, Shao Xuan found that the experience of this group was not much good. He paid a huge price back then. There was not even one-tenth of the people who came here safely, which was a heavy loss. Even the people who arrived were injured in different degrees.
From what was told in these notes, Shao Xuan learned that some people in the tribe discovered the fact that the fire was declining a thousand years ago, but they had never found a solution. It was not until the slave owners appeared that they saw the opportunity.
The reason why the slave owners were able to travel from this continent to the other side was because of the great change in the world a thousand years ago, the mountains became underestimated, and the vast sea became land. The undersea passage that Shao Xuan walked through did indeed rise due to the great change in the world. Then, a group of slave owners walked over the "bridge".
The place close to the "bridge", which is the arid land that Shao Xuan saw at the beginning, was actually used by the slave owners here to exile sinners. The environment there was harsh, and there was not even a tribe back then. For example, the drought situation is even worse today. In the desolate land, even if there are many exiled people, not many survived. If not, when the "bridge" that rose due to the great changes in the world appeared, there would definitely be more than those slave owners who passed by here.
Among the group of slave owners who passed by a thousand years ago, there were several genius figures. These animal skin scrolls mentioned several people, all of which they had contacted. One of them, named "Mu Han", mentioned the most times. According to the records on the animal skin scroll, the most important reason why slave owners were able to rise there was this "Mu Han".
According to the records on the animal skin scroll, Yanjiao's ancestors had a lot of contact with this "Mu Han". The leader of the Yanjiao tribe who took his tribe out to avoid disaster had fought with Mu Han. The two sides were not hostile. They were not friendly, but after getting along for a long time, they knew each other very well.
Later, the leader of Yanjiao was slightly better in a contest and got some secret information from the slave owners from Mu Han. At that time, the "bridge" in the sea was already very unstable. Whether it was Yanjiao's witch or some people who were good at divination with Mu Han, it was said that the "bridge" would not exist for a long time.
That is, at that time, there was a disagreement within the Yanjiao tribe. The leader wanted to go from the bridge to the other side to find a solution to the weakening of the fire, but Wu strongly opposed it. At that time, the candidate for the next witch of the tribe had already been finalized, named "Chi", which was the successor that Wu spent a lot of time and energy to cultivate, and he also had great expectations for him. Because Chi was indeed a genius and one of the few people who had inherited the power before taking over as Wu, just like Shao Xuan who helped the witch draw the witch scroll. Chi also started to help paint the witch scroll very early.
However, the genius finally stood on the side of the leader, and together with the leader, he brought half of his tribe and half of his fire from the bridge over the sea to this land, experiencing all kinds of difficulties and obstacles, being rejected, targeted, ridiculed, and came to this forest.
The following ten full animal skin scrolls. All records are about "Chi" who arrived here, looking for ways to suppress the weakness of the fire. They look for the mystery of the disappearance of the fire in the slave owners and the tribes here. In the end, the genius found a solution when he was old.
"The fire has not disappeared, it still exists in the blood of the Yankee Man. The same as the Yankee Man will continue."
After reading this, Shao Xuan thought, that is to say, the other half of the fire has been integrated into the body of the Yanjiao man?
Behind the animal skin scrolls written by Chi, there was also a very simple painting, which was the last time Chi knelt down to worship the witch before she followed the leader.
Do you regret it? From the text and pictures written at the end of Chi Life, it can be seen that he is not regretful, but there is guilt and regret, and he misses his old place very much. But he knows that the bridge has sunk and will not know when it will rise again. Even if it can rise again, he will not be able to see it. However, Chi believes that when the "bridge" appears again, the people of the tribe can go back and return to the tribe with the solution he has found.
"One day, we will return to our hometown."
At the end of the book, there is a sentence similar to what Shao Xuan wrote when he saw "Praise" on the stone chamber.
But they didn't know that the Yankee tribe who stayed there was not good luck. As they walked, they found that the earth was cracking. Then, a huge river appeared, completely blocking their way back, and lived a "savage" life that was isolated from the world for nearly a thousand years.
Seeing these, Shao Xuan sighed. It was not easy. No matter whether it was the witch back then or Chi and the leader here, probably no one was truly satisfied. After all, Yanjiao was divided into two, and in their eyes, they were just sinners and ashamed of their ancestors.
Looking at the animal skin scrolls left by Chi and the leader, we can know that their greatest wish is that one day in the future, the two separate branches can be reunited into one, and the prosperity of the flame horn and the reappearance of glory are indispensable.
From the records left by the leader back then, Shao Xuan also discovered some "Mu Han" incidents. Because he had a lot of contact with Mu Han, many of the records about slave owners left by the leader were about Mu Han.
It is said that Mu Han was expelled when he was cheated, otherwise a talented genius would not have been exiled so easily. However, unexpectedly, the exiled man encountered an opportunity and went from here to the other side through the "bridge".
There is a passage in the leader's record: "Mu Han feels that this is really a happy place."
"Here" refers to the other side of the bridge, where tribes such as Yanjiao live. There are vulnerable people like tourists and prisoners of war who are not valued. These are excellent slaves, because these people have no power but are extremely eager to gain power! Such people are the best slaves!
There are too many suitable slave resources, which completely ignited Mu Han's ambitions, but he was also resentful and thought about one day he could kill him again. So he abandoned his original surname "Mu" and changed to the more murderous surname "Shi".
The leader who knew Mu Han very well wrote some comments on the animal skin scroll, which meant that Mu Han suffered losses in his life because of his sharpness. He was obviously talented and capable, but he was eventually cheated.
Shao Xuan recalled the major cities in the desert and the surnames of several city lords there. There was no surname "Mu" or "Shi"... No, there was a surname "Shi"!
Could it be that Mu Han realized his shortcomings and hoped that his younger generations could know how to hide their strengths, tolerate them, and to cheat others without making any noise. That was why he changed the murderous "kill" to "Shi"?
Think about it, it is really possible that Shi Shu and his group of people launched a war that swept the entire desert behind them without a sound?
Perhaps Shi Shu’s understanding of Yanjiao was not because of Dao Yu, but because of the record left by their ancestor “Mu Han”?
Whether it is true or not, Shao Xuan has no way to investigate now and cannot ask Shi Shu’s real reason.
He read the records left by the "Chi" who changed the Yankee again, and Shao Xuan carefully rolled the animal skin roll and put it back.
If you can go back, these are extremely important things. They only spend a lifetime of their achievements and are also the antidote to change the weakness of the Fire Horn.
After stretching, she moved her stiff body for a while, Shao Xuan looked out the window.
