Chapter 1521
Jingxiang Xiren
Xi clan?
I frowned and asked suspiciously: "Are you talking about the Kumoxi tribe that was active in the Xilamulun River area during the Sui, Tang and Song Dynasties? It is said that this tribe belongs to the Donghu and is good at building cars. They were later conquered by the Khitan and merged with the Khitan
, became a part of the Liao Kingdom and gradually disappeared in the long river of history."
"This Xi clan is not that Xi clan."
Han Xu shook his head and said with a smile: "The Xi tribe I'm talking about has a long history, far from being comparable to the northern barbarians like the Kumo Xi tribe.
As the saying goes, the Miao descendants of Emperor Gaoyang are here. This Xi clan can be traced back to the period of ancient Chinese tribes. They are the Gaoyang clan, the descendants of Emperor Zhuanxu, and are the Miao descendants of the Five Emperors."
A power that makes Qingzhu and Tianmeng fearful...
I took a deep look at Han Xu and said, "I have little knowledge and really don't know much about this. I would like to hear the details."
Han Xu said: "I just said that Emperor Gaoyang was descended from the Miao family. It was Qu Yuan who wrote this sentence. Qu Yuan was from Chu, and most Chu people were descendants of the Gaoyang family.
During the Spring and Autumn Period, Jingchu's elite soldiers were powerful throughout the world.
In the Battle of Bi, the Chu people defeated the many with a small number, and attacked the Jin army that was arrogant at that time. In one battle, they shocked the world and established Chu's hegemony.
At the end of the Warring States Period, after Qin destroyed Chu, many of these proud elite soldiers of Jingchu were unwilling to obey Qin's orders, so they hid in the mountains and built camps to defend themselves, and finally formed the Xiren and Bancheng in Jingchu land at that time.
Although the barbarians are said to be southern barbarians, they are descendants of the elite soldiers of Jingchu and are descendants of the Gaoyang clan. They are serious Chinese Miao descendants and are of Han Dynasty blood.
The Xi people I am talking about are exactly this Xi tribe.
These Jing barbarians, with their severed hair and tattoos, have always been fierce and good at fighting. They were all-powerful during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Han Dynasty, and even during the period of the Three Kingdoms and Two Jin Dynasties.
In the past, when the overlord of Chu led eight thousand soldiers from Jiangdong to defeat the Qin army, there were many Xi people among them. Among the heroes of Jiangdong during this period, such as Yingbu, General Pu and other famous generals in the world, they all came from Xi people.
After the Yongjia Rebellion, the Wuhu rebellion in China, Yiguan's journey to the south, and the Jin royal family crossing the river, the Xi people once again showed their excellence.
At that time, the leader of the Xi people was the Tao family. Their leader, Tao Kan, borrowed the power of his clan to dominate Jingzhou, which was a first-class feudal town at that time. At that time, there were many famous refugee commanders, such as Zu Ti, Su Jun, etc., facing
This Tao Jingzhou had to give three points of courtesy, and the refugee commander Su Jun was defeated by Tao Kan. During the Tang and Song Dynasties, this Tao Jingzhou had a place among the seventy-two generals in the martial arts temple.
Unfortunately, after Tao Kan, Huan Wen rose up and occupied the Tao family's Jingzhou. He even wanted to use the Northern Expedition to usurp the throne. For a time, he suppressed the power of the Eastern Jin royal family and became so arrogant that the Tao family, as the old owner of Jingzhou, naturally became a thorn in his side.
Most of his disciples were persecuted by Huan Wen, and Xi Ren suffered heavy losses, so he retreated into Jingshan Mountain.
This Jingshan Mountain is vast and green, especially in the northwest. The mountains are high and the valleys are deep, majestic and steep, with crisscrossing ravines. It is said that Bian He got his jade here, and the Xi people hid in this deep mountain and disappeared."
"Tao Xiang'er, Tao Kan..."
I repeated the names of the two people and wondered: "Are you saying that this Tao Xiang'er is after Tao Kan? They are... the leaders of the Xi people of Jingchu?! It's just that time has changed and the Eastern Jin Dynasty has perished.
Our lineage of ritual officials has been cut off for about the same time. It has been fifteen or six hundred years now. Could it be said that the Jingchu Xi people who hid in the mountains at that time actually inherited it to this day? This is... unlikely, right?"
"What is impossible? There are no Jiazi in the mountains. It has been thousands of years in the world. The Xi people can still live and work in peace and contentment in Jingshan Mountain. Although the population is not large, there are no wars and other disturbances. What is impossible about this being passed down?"
Han Xu sneered and said: "There was a man with a special name in the Tao family of Jingchu, named Tao Qian, also known as the famous Tao Yuanming. This man was Tao Kan's great-grandson. He wrote a story about the Peach Blossom Spring. People today interpret it.
I feel like I have entered a ghost world, but those who know about Jingchu's Xi people know very well that what is described is the Xi people who hid in the mountains.
The Xi people have thirty-six caves, and no one knows where they are hiding. However, over the past thousand years, they have also developed their own unique strength. They are proficient in Qimen Dunjia, secret passages, and have great attainments in mystical arts.
It's just that Jingshan's products are limited after all, and they can't really be isolated from the world. Each generation of Tao family will always send some of their children to serve as talkers. This is exactly what Tao Xiang'er did. In order to cover up others' eyes, he worshiped all kinds of people.
As a disciple of Lanmen, he learned some thaumaturgy, but later he quit the Xuanmen because he was tired of the battles in the Xuanmen, but he could not ignore his clansmen who were still in Jingshan, so he ran a lot of industries!"
"So, what Qingzhu is really afraid of is the Thirty-Six Dongxi people behind Tao Xiang'er?!"
I asked, and then immediately changed my explanation: "No, it cannot be said to be fear, it should be said... is the Tianmeng interested in these thirty-six Dongxi people?!"
Han Xu nodded and said: "The number of these Xi people should not be very large, but they are proficient in thaumaturgy and can now be regarded as members of Xuanmen. In addition, each of them is fierce and good at fighting. They are a force that cannot be underestimated. Sister Qing
I have been promoting the Yin-Yang Covenant outside, but the progress is slow and difficult. I have no choice. The Taoism is declining too much nowadays, so I am thinking about these powers that have long been hidden in the world, and have explored it more than once.
Of course, this is some personal speculation on my part.
If you want to establish a relationship with Jing Xiangxi, you have to go through Tao Xiang'er. Sister Qing should have some ideas, but she was put in a position by Tao Xiang'er first. She is too familiar with you and is afraid that you will be ridiculed. Furthermore,
, Brother Wei, you have been in trouble recently, and your life seems to be not easy. The things are complicated. I came to Tao Xiang'er, but I just hope that the other party will resolve your problems. Sister Qing does not want Tianmeng's needs to affect your feelings for Tao Xiang'er.
Xiang'er's judgment and strategy will cause you more trouble, so I conceal these things behind Tao Xiang'er from you."
My mind was spinning, and then I looked at Han Xu, half-smiling but not smiling: "Then, why are you talking about these things to me?!"
"Sister Qing has a good personal relationship with you, and I don't want you to worry too much when doing things, but as a subordinate of Sister Qing, I have to say a few words."
Han Xu said sternly: "Brother Wei, don't worry, I am definitely not trying to plot against you, or to say that Sister Qing is doing one thing to others and another to others.
When I say this, I am actually worried about Sister Qing. She has been having a hard time lately!!
This time the Tianmeng was born, Xuanmen withered, and the advancement of the Yin-Yang Covenant was already difficult. Sister Qing had been running around for several years, but there was not much progress.
A few days ago in Jinling, Sister Qing intervened in the civil strife in Huachuan. Although it was very successful, she still suffered some losses. Originally, Xunxiang took advantage of the remaining power to enter Xiangxi and captured many Taoism in Western Hunan. Unexpectedly, Sister Qing was trapped in the Xiangxi Incident.
We suffered heavy losses there for more than half a year, and finally withdrew in embarrassment. This was exactly how we lost our wives and lost our troops.
Although Huachuan has joined the Tianmeng, Lady Hong has not figured out a method suitable for their practice. They cannot be regarded as members of the Xuanmen, and their power is very limited. In any case, the losses in Huachuan and the Xiangxi Tianmeng
, is greater than the addition of flower boats, this is a loss-making business.
Now there are some gossips within the Tianmeng. It seems that even some Xuanmen who have joined the Tianmeng have their own thoughts. After all... the losses in Xiangxi are really tragic!
Sister Qing's situation is very difficult. If the hidden force of the Jingxiangxi tribe joins the Tianmeng at this time, it will undoubtedly be a timely help!"
Having said this, Han Xu stood up, clasped his fists and said, "So, Sister Qing is not willing to let you get involved in these things because of her personal relationship with you, but as his subordinate, I still have some considerations. Brother Wei, if
If conditions permit, I hope you can establish a relationship with the Jingxiangxi tribe behind him through Tao Xiang'er!"
"Sure enough, it's not an easy thing!"
I sighed softly and said seriously: "Tao Xiang'er and I don't have any friendship. Now I just have some preliminary ideas. People decide what to do and what to do depends on God. I'm not very sure about this, but Qingzhu is very interested in me."
You En has a very good relationship with me. Since you said so, I will definitely facilitate this matter if conditions permit."
Han Xu was overjoyed and was about to speak when the corner of his eye suddenly glanced out the window and exclaimed: "Tao Xiang'er is out!"
