Myth Revival: I am beheading the gods in the Shanhaijing!

Chapter 83

Danyang, this is the first capital established by the Chu culture after the founding of the country.

The Chu people lived here for thousands of years, and it was not until the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty that they were recognized by the emperor of Zhou, won the title, and established the country here.

After absorbing the culture from the Central Plains, the Chu people quickly developed their own special culture.

The beliefs of Chu people are diverse, including gods, gods, and ghosts.

Chu people's worship of heaven is no longer a general concept, but has specific objects, such as Taiyi, Dongjun, Yunzhongjun and many other gods exclusive to Chu.

Before and after the establishment of the Chu State, a profession passed down from time to time was also passed down. This is the witch culture...

The profession of witches has appeared since the period of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors. People believe that they have great supernatural powers, can communicate with heaven and earth, communicate with ghosts and gods, and paralyze life and death...

The first ancestor of the Chu people was the Zhu Rong family of Emperor Yan's lineage. They believed that they were born with gods and could communicate with ghosts and gods.

As for how to communicate with the gods, there are two methods, one is sacrifice and the other is divination.

The practice of offering sacrifices to the people of Chu was very strong, from the king to the common people.

As for divination, it is a right that only witches can exercise.

It is Bu Yin who does divination for the country, and when the king encounters important events, he also performs divination. For example, before King Ling of Chu came to the throne, he had the ambition to conquer the world, so he did divination himself.

----

Looking at all the materials related to the mythology that he had sorted out in front of him, Han Jinglue also roughly understood where he should go if he wanted to explore the gods.

"Danyang..."

Recalling the words and sentences that are most closely related to the Jingchu gods, the place where the Chu people first lived became their breakthrough point.

"According to the data, the Chu State is the descendant of the Yan Emperor's lineage, Zhu Rong, and the Miao descendant of Mi surnamed Ji Lian, who was the king of Zhou Wen.

"Xiong Yi is secluded in Jingshan Mountain, and the road is blue. He used it to open up the mountains and forests, and used the peach arc and thorn arrow to worship the King of Zhou."

"In this way, the place where Chu people first lived should be in Gudanyang."

"According to the historical records, the ancient Danyang should be at the intersection of the Yang of Danshui and Xishui, that is to say..."

While analyzing, Han Jinglue moved the mouse, opened the satellite map, gradually narrowed down the target range, and finally...

"Is it here--"

Looking at the huge reservoir on the computer in front of him and the city below the reservoir, Han Jing narrowed his eyes and looked carefully.

Nearly 3000 years are enough to polish all traces.

At the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, the whole world was in a warm period. After passing the Yangtze River, there were four jungles in the south, and the reservoir in front of us was once a swamp.

The enfeoffment strategy of the Zhou Dynasty itself was to let the princes take people out to open up the Quartet.

However, the objects of development are mainly limited to the north of the Yangtze River, as well as the Central Plains and Guanzhong.

That's how Chu people were able to successfully establish a country in the place where they were born and raised, and were canonized by the Zhou royal family.

If you want to explore the gods of Jingchu, then the source is only here...

Danjiang!

Han Jinglue clicked on the computer and calculated the distance from Jianghan to Danjiang.

"390 kilometers..."

Looking at the data of the distance, Han Jinglue nodded to himself.

"With this distance, even if I haven't entered the realm of three-star mythical creatures, I can run there within two hours."

"As long as there is no great terror there, then I can return to Jianghan by car the next day after exploring..."

Despite thinking so in his heart, Han Jinglue still held his breath a little.

If I guessed it right, Danjiang is the source of the Jingchu myth, then there must be gods there!

Donghuang Taiyi, the sun god Dongjun, the moon god Wangshu, as well as the Da Si Ming, Shao Shi Ming, and various gods who command and sacrifice.

Although the Jingchu mythology is definitely not comparable to the "Shan Hai Jing" and the ancient gods of the Central Plains.

But... that is a god after all...

Han Jing was a little confused. He had only seen one god so far, and that was Dagon, the servant who served the old ruler Cthulhu.

But even Dagon, the strength of just sending clones is as high as five stars.

Although the Cthulhu god line was born in modern times, it has influenced many Western cultures.

The strength of Dagon's body is six stars, so the strength of Jingchu God is definitely far more than that of his servant.

"Let's improve it a bit more..."

Han Jinglue was reluctant. After all, what he had to face was the 3000-year-old Jingchu myth, and he didn't want to die in vain.

After thinking about it, he searched for other Jingchu myths. After searching for a long time, he didn't get any useful information.

The oldest relic in the city of Jianghan is the relic of Panlong City that I visited last night.

As the palace city of Fang Kingdom during the Shang Dynasty, there are only some three-star and two-star beasts in it, which is a bit strange.

Turning off the computer, Han Jinglue picked up his phone and checked the time. After realizing that it was almost five o'clock, he didn't feel like going to sleep, but ordered a takeaway instead.

While waiting for the takeaway, he gathered a fireball the size of a ping-pong ball in his palm and kept playing with it.

After his ability to resist fire improved, he hadn't encountered the kind of monster that made him use his full fire-control ability.

However, he knew in his heart that if he wanted to use the fire-controlling supernatural power, he would definitely create more flames than the three-star mythical creature.

Because of this, he has no idea of ​​using evolution points for the time being.

There are more than 800 evolution points in the panel, and he plans to upgrade the fire control supernatural power after collecting [-] points.

His intuition told him that there are still several realms waiting for him to climb after he has perfected his skills. If he can reach the peak of fire control supernatural powers, he will definitely gain combat power beyond his imagination.

Tuk Tuk-

"Your takeaway has arrived, but your mobile phone can't get through, please come out and get it."

"Huh?" Hearing the knock on the door, Han Jing slightly looked at the phone in doubt, only to realize that the phone had been shut down due to excessive power consumption while he was in a daze.

"coming."

Standing up and putting the phone on the table, Han Jinglue opened the door unhurriedly, and got a somewhat heavy takeaway from the delivery guy.

After saying thank you, he returned to the sofa with the takeaway, and he couldn't help but put a smile on his face when he unpacked the takeaway.

He remembered the frequent shutdown of his mobile phone during this time.

This kind of thing, if it is placed before the appearance of Guixu, it is bound to be impossible.

In the "fast food" era, everyone seems to be suffering from mobile phone syndrome.

It seems that as long as the mobile phone is away from me for more than 3 minutes, I will be very impatient.

But myself, since I saw the mystery of Guixu, I no longer have the slightest interest in those short videos, the Internet, and so on.

It is true that this is due to the increase in intelligence and the decrease in dopamine secretion.

But now that I think about it, the appearance of Guixu is to punish mankind, or to let people come out of the illusory world...

"Let's leave such philosophical questions to those philosophers."

After sighing, Han Jinglue bowed his head and began to feast.
