The old patriarch was satisfied and said with a smile, "Now we are a family! Let me briefly introduce our tribe!"
Following the old patriarch's eloquent talk, the four of them were all surprised.
It turns out that these people are the remnants of the previous royal family. After the previous dynasty was taken over by the Song family, a lot of territory was still occupied by the Tang and Yuan Dynasties. They had to go deep into the desert to hide. For three thousand years, they have never given up taking back the country.
In order to regain the country, each generation sent people to sneak into various countries to develop their power. However, their opponents were too powerful and they have been trying their best to wipe out the legacy of the previous dynasty. Therefore, instead of strengthening, their power has become weaker and weaker. In the past few hundred years, it has become weaker and weaker. They began to recruit outsiders to join the tribe in order to expand their power.
After the four people heard this, they all pretended to be surprised and said, "So we are still the royal family of the previous dynasty!"
The old patriarch smiled with a sense of superiority, "That's right! The world of the Song Kingdom belongs to our family!"
Then he became sad again, that sad face was really unbearable, "It has been three thousand years and it has not been taken back yet! The territory of the motherland was also divided between the Tang Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty."
The four of them listened speechlessly, but they thought coldly in their hearts that these people with evil intentions really shouldn't be too careless.
The old patriarch was sad for a while, then put away his expression and said, "During this period, you will first learn our writing and language, and then practice our inherited skills. Don't worry, the tribe is completely open to you."
After saying that, he took out a thick book from the shelf behind his back, handed it to Ye Xing, and said, "This is a comparison of our writing and the writing of the Song Dynasty today. I will ask a person to teach you how to pronounce it in a few days. It only takes ten years." One day, you will be able to understand and understand!"
Ye Xing took the thick dictionary and was very happy. He had long wanted to thoroughly learn the characters of the previous dynasty, and now it was actually handed to him. Of course, you are welcome. It just happened to be a better comparison.
The four people were taken back to the house where they lived, and then the young man asked people to arrange food and let the four people rest. He also said that someone would come over tomorrow to teach them how to speak. Now I know that this young man can actually speak the Mandarin of Song Dynasty. of.
After the young man left, Ye Xing scanned the area with his spiritual consciousness, closed the door, and said softly, "Qi Ming and Xinyue are guarding here. Jingxuan and I will analyze the elixir. They will never be so kind." .”
The two nodded, while Ye Xing and Qin Jingxuan entered a room, took out magnifying glasses and microscopes, and began to conduct careful analysis.
Under a high-power magnifying glass, nothing was found on the surface of the pill. Then they crushed the little finger-sized elixir and made it into a glass slide. Under a microscope that magnified it thousands of times, with their excellent medical knowledge, they quickly Saw the difference.
There are dozens of eggs of unknown insects inside, which are extremely small, and the extremely small eggs are actually very spiritual and have extremely strong vitality. Of course, it is only a very small crystal clear particle now, but the living larvae inside can also be seen through the film.
Qin Jingxuan said in shock, "This is the legendary Gu insect!"
Ye Xing also said solemnly, "Yes! After eating it, the human body's gastric juice will dissolve the elixir, and these poisonous insects will hatch and enter all the important organs of the human body, and then they will be controlled by them forever. They should be the legendary witches and evil spirits. Technique."
Qin Jingxuan patted her chest and said fearfully, "According to legend, the art of witchcraft and Gu was very popular in the previous dynasties, which caused dissatisfaction among the wealthy families and led to rebellion! Of course, this is just a legend."
Ye Xing nodded and said, "That should be it, that's it! They should use this method to control a lot of power in the world now. No wonder there are always so many unclear things. It is very likely that they are just one of the forces in the world. There are many unknown forces, so we still have to be careful.”
Qin Jingxuan said, "What should we do? They can also lay poison in other places. It's hard to guard against such a small thing."
Ye Xing shook his head and said, "This thing should be rare. If there were many, the world would have been taken back by them long ago."
After a pause, he said, "But this thing has a fatal flaw. This little thing is full of aura, and it is like a bright light under the consciousness of cultivators like us."
Qin Jingxuan said, "After that, we can no longer eat the food they send, we have to make it ourselves!"
Ye Xing said, "Okay! Just say that the taste doesn't match, give us the raw materials, and we will make food ourselves. And we have to give food to the birds at night. They will definitely not find anything to eat in the desert."
Explain everything to Qin Xinyue and Qi Ming, asking them not to face the people here alone, to cook all the food themselves, and to be completely vigilant about things with a lot of spiritual energy.
Qin Xinyue and Qi Ming were also frightened. This was the legendary disgusting and terrifying poison. Fortunately, Ye Xing was always such a cautious person, otherwise there would definitely be no good results this time.
Ye Xing said, "Let's rest here for a while and then set off! The ancient characters from the previous dynasties here are the best opportunity for us to learn, and their cultivation is also a good reference for us. You keep showing the realm of the innate level. Awesome”
Late at night, when there was no moonlight, Ye Xing used Qing Gong, and the smoke disappeared.
Soon he came to a hillside dozens of miles away and took out a lot of meat pieces for the two eagles.
The weather was very cold. On the top of the mountain, Ye Xing opened a large cave for the two eagles and asked them to practice here and not get close to the oasis.
For the next ten days or so, a teacher came every day to teach the four people how to pronounce the ancient characters and practice writing the ancient characters.
The four of them are cultivators with the best understanding and memory. They quickly memorized and learned it, and even communicated verbally with the tribesmen every day.
The oasis is rectangular, about thirty miles long, more than ten miles wide, and hundreds of miles around. In order to prevent further invasion of wind and sand, it is surrounded by trees. In addition, there is a water source here, and it is surrounded by high hillsides on three sides. Therefore, it has become a natural and excellent place to escape from the world.
The four of them soon became the central figures among all the children here, and they were allowed to talk about the outside world every day.
The four of them also deliberately told all kinds of interesting things outside, which made the children even more yearn for it. And because of the daily study and explanation, the four of them became fluent in the language one by one.
After learning hundreds of characters a day, I learned thousands of ancient characters in ten days.
Ye Xing compared the ancient characters of the previous dynasty that he had learned from several people before. There was a big difference. One was that he could not pronounce them before, and the other was that many of the explanations of the ancient characters were far less accurate than those he learned now.
The teacher who taught Ye Xing and others to learn ancient Chinese also greatly appreciated the four people's eagerness to learn and their ability to apply immediately, and praised them greatly.
In the meantime, Ye Xing also consulted the teacher about the puzzles about the three books he got from the deserted city. This learned man actually understood ancient texts, which made Ye Xing overjoyed and immediately asked to learn. .
And Ye Xing took the opportunity to ask out many argot words that he didn't understand in "Taixu Yuling Jing" one by one. He was supposed to study for ten days, but he forced Ye Xing to study for a month.
Starting from the tenth day, someone came to guide the internal strength cultivation of the four people. As expected, their cultivation systems were very different. They involved heavy physical training, followed by mental cooperation, and even extreme training. The strength of the four people was Substantial improvements, especially for physical applications in combat.
The four people's cultivation level has improved significantly in one month. Coupled with their own extremely high skills, the four people immediately showed their amazing martial arts qualifications.
Under Ye Xing's constant request, he learned all the characters of the previous dynasty. The four of them spoke extremely fluently, knew all the characters, and could even write articles. The learned teacher also felt that there was nothing left to teach. .
Ye Xing also felt a little sad when getting along with these remnants of the previous dynasty: these ordinary tribal people just wanted to live a peaceful life, but the top officials were constantly thinking about restoring the country, and all the young and middle-aged people were sent out. There are only old people, women and children here.
Those young and middle-aged people can only come back once a year or every few years, and many of them will never come back. However, generation after generation of people continue to consume like this, so the population is getting smaller and smaller.
The most frightening thing is that no matter how hard they try, the tribe's population grows extremely slowly. Ye Xing speculates that it is related to the use of poison. The exercises they practice also overuse the body, which fundamentally damages the reproductive capacity.
For an unattainable goal, generation after generation of people continue to sacrifice or run away, but the old people become more and more crazy, and many times the things they do are extreme and perverted.
Gu worms are actually planted in every tribe. It will be beneficial to their cultivation in the early stage. The speed of absorbing spiritual energy is ten times that of ordinary people. Moreover, with the help of the power of gu worms, their cultivation is much faster than that of people of the same age. However, The growth of the Gu insects will eventually kill them.
