Unexpectedly, as soon as the two of them entered, the ice tunnel behind them slowly disappeared and was replaced by a thick ice wall, which seemed to push the two of them to move forward... And for some reason, ever since Song Jiang entered this After entering the Ice Tunnel, the more I walked, the more panicked I became, as if there was some unknown danger waiting for me ahead.
Unexpectedly, just when Song Jiang was panicking, he suddenly saw an animal appearing at the end of the ice tunnel. It looked like a leopard from a distance, but when the two approached, Song Jiang discovered that it turned out to be a long-haired animal. A strange thing with a lizard head and a cheetah body...
"Shui Qi? Why are you here!?" Meng Zhe said in shock.
Then the monster with the head of a lizard and the body of a cheetah started to speak like a human being, "How can a water squid be so virtuous? I'd like to trouble the White Tiger God..."
Song Jiang was horrified when he heard this. He could not believe that the pleasant female voice just now came from the mouth of such a strange thing! ! Originally, this was not a big deal. After all, after following Meng Zhe for a long time, it was possible to see any kind of monster...
But what surprised Song Jiang the most was that the water turtle with a lizard head and a cheetah body looked at him with indescribable viciousness, as if he had thrown its child into the well before. Song Jiang was so frightened that he did not dare to face it. Looking towards it.
Meng Zhe seemed to have discovered this problem, so he blocked Song Jiang behind him and said, "Shui Qi, when did you become the mountain god of Kalabog Snow Mountain? I just heard Harisang say that there are seven mountain gods on this mountain. Could it be that the remaining six are the six I have in mind?"
After hearing this, Shui Qi nodded slightly and said, "White Tiger Divine Lord Yingming is indeed our Northern Qisu... After the Holy Lord was gone, the seven of us had nowhere to go and were even homeless. In the end, we had to take his old man's relics with us. Arriving at Sunset Peak, a deserted place.”
Meng Zhe suddenly interrupted Shuiqi when he heard this and said, "Wait a minute...don't tell me that Xuanwu's relic is the Raoshizi sacred object of the Rihan tribe?!"
Shuiqi nodded and smiled after hearing this, "The Lord of God is wise... In order to let the Holy Lord's relics enjoy the incense in the world, we trained a group of uncivilized savages, which later became the Rihan tribe. We handed over the Holy Lord's relics. It will be kept by them and promised to be worshiped by them from generation to generation to keep it safe."
When Meng Zhe heard this, he sneered and said, "You did a good job with this deal! While letting people keep your things for free, you also deceived them into serving you delicious food and drinks?!"
Song Jiang originally thought that Meng Zhe's words would anger the other party, but unexpectedly, the water turtle just coughed slightly in embarrassment, and then continued, "Please forgive me, Lord White Tiger, we also have our difficulties... although we did take advantage of it. It’s not like the Rihan people didn’t give them any benefits. We civilized them and had their own civilization, turning them from animals in the countryside into upright walking humans.”
Next to him, Song Jiang became more and more confused as he listened, wondering how he could even figure out Darwin's theory of evolution? ! I bet Harisang and the others were just a bunch of monkeys before, but later they turned into a bunch of wolves? ! Where is this going? !
At this time, Meng Zhe asked in a deep voice, "Since the Rihan tribe's sacred object is the relic of the Xuanwu God, then why did the imperial court come to rob it later, and it must be their royal secret treasure!?"
After hearing this, Shui Qi said angrily, "It stands to reason that the Rihan tribe hardly interacted with outsiders back then. No one should know about the sacred objects in the tribe, but they don't know..." When Shui Qi said this, he suddenly He glared at Song Jiang fiercely, and then continued, "But I don't know who told the Dog Emperor at that time that eating the sacred objects of the Rihan tribe could lead to immortality, and that's what happened next."
After hearing this, Meng Zhe immediately laughed dryly and said, "Immortality... is really ridiculous!" But then he added, "Perhaps in terms of human lifespan, living for three to five hundred years is indeed considered immortal!"
Shui Qi nodded and said, "It is for this reason that the Rihan tribe was annihilated. At that time, the Rihan tribe had passed down to the sixth generation. Our story only exists in their legends." , so they did not ask us for help at first... It was not until they hid in the mountains that Harisang swore a strong oath in front of the mountain temple and prayed for us to help them destroy the incoming enemies."
Song Jiang was also secretly surprised after hearing this. It seemed that there was a reason why the emperor sent Liu Fuchun to snatch the sacred objects. After all, which emperor didn't long for immortality and live another 500 years? !
At this time, Meng Zhe continued to ask, "If that's the case, then why did you turn all the Rihan people into snow wolves?!"
After hearing this, Shuiqiu laughed deeply, "Because we discovered that... once animals become human beings, their inner desire will also grow. There is no guarantee that one day they will not covet the relics of the Holy Lord like that dog emperor." .Since they swore a strong oath and were willing to pay any price to destroy the enemy, what's wrong with turning into snow wolves and guarding the Snow Mountain Temple forever?!"
Meng Zhe now finally understood the ins and outs of that matter, so he said to Shui Qi in a deep voice, "You are right to protect Xuanwu's relics, but this matter has been going on for thousands of years. I hope you can let it go." The souls of the Rihan people and the 3,000 soldiers left, allowing them all to re-enter reincarnation, so that no one would leak the secret of the relic."
Who would have thought that after hearing this, Shui Qi sneered and said, "Oh? I don't think so! People's hearts are unpredictable. Even you, the White Tiger God... should have a deep understanding of these four words."
When Meng Zhe heard what Shui Qi said, he suddenly said angrily, "What a shame! I gave you face, didn't I?!"
Unexpectedly, Shuiqiu didn't seem to be afraid of Meng Zhe at all. Instead, he laughed and said, "The Lord is happy and angry... The little god is just joking with you."
But Meng Zhe seemed to be really angry, and he said sternly, "Even your master would not dare to talk to me like this when he was alive..."
Shuiqi nodded and said, "My sage did have a deep relationship with you back then, but what happened? He died innocently and tragically, and you, a brother, even refused to avenge him?!"
"It's not your turn to comment on the matter between Xuanwu and I..." Meng Zhe said unceremoniously.
Shuiqi smiled and said, "But the little god still wants to thank you today... for bringing this kid here, we in the Northern Qisu finally don't have to shoot without aim."
Meng Zhe's expression changed after hearing this, and then he said in a deep voice, "He is just a small follower of mine. As mountain gods... isn't it a bit unreasonable to embarrass a mortal?!"
