Mystery Comes to the Dragon Race

Chapter 343 Japanese Mythology
"I always feel that we are under house arrest now." Lu Mingfei couldn't help complaining after eating the traditional Japanese food specially provided by Sheqi Bajia, "Basically, when we go out for a stroll, there are many people following us. Behind us."

Those people have received special training at first glance, and their concealment is very good. If it was the original Lu Mingfei, he would not feel the existence of those people at all.But now after drinking the assassin's potion, Lu Mingfei naturally has a deep understanding of hiding himself, and it is easy to find those stalkers hiding in the dark.

"So we are obviously just out for a trip, why are we so vigilant by the Japanese branch?" Lu Mingfei asked with a confused face.

"Miss Justice also said that we came out to carry out some secret mission. Is traveling considered a secret mission?"

"Why do you care so much?" Old Tang also slumped lazily on the tatami, holding a bottle of Coke with his brother and staring at the TV in front of him with a bottle of potato chips.

"Anyway, someone provided us with food and lodging, and also provided travel services. Isn't this a great thing?"

"..."

Lu Mingfei glanced at the two humanoid creatures on the tatami, with endless contempt revealed in his eyes.

Fortunately, these two people are still the legendary dragon kings, do they still look like dragon kings?It's just like trash, okay?

Said to be the Dragon King, I think it is the kind of big fat cat that lies at home all day and gets fat.

It's no wonder that the rule of the dragon clan will be overthrown by humans in the end, as can be seen from the unmotivated performance of these two dragon kings.

Lu Mingfei turned his head and looked at Chu Zihang, hoping that his senior brother could see his eyes, implying that he would join him in condemning these two dragons who did not seek to make progress.

But seeing Chu Zihang hugging the computer, typing on the keyboard with a serious face, he didn't know what he was doing.

However, Lu Mingfei seriously suspected that his senior brother, who was cold on the outside but very sullen on the inside, was chatting with his passionate girlfriend.Don't look at the seriousness of the senior brother, but it is indeed something he can do.

The boys in their line of work were basically in this room, and Caesar was unwilling to live in the room provided by Sheqi Bajia, so he went out and booked a five-star hotel.As for the missing Fingel, they only remembered this person in their minds, but quickly forgot him deep in their brains.

Lu Mingfei reluctantly picked up a book from the coffee table, he didn't want to get into a conversation with these guys who were just eating and waiting to die.

"Lu Mingfei, when did you become so diligent?"

Lu Mingfei's actions caught Old Tang's attention, and Old Tang was finally willing to raise his head to look at his good brother, "I read a book when I wake up in the morning. This is not like you at all. You shouldn't come over to play games with me after eating." ?"

He looked very surprised, as if Lu Mingfei's ability to learn was such a shocking thing.

After all, when Lu Mingfei was still in high school, he and Lu Mingfei had known each other. He deeply realized what a bad boy Lu Mingfei was. his life.

Every time Lu Mingfei went online late at night, he would unite with brother idiot to condemn this kid and tell him to go to bed quickly.Otherwise, I would fall asleep on the table the next morning.

It can be seen from this that he and brother idiot were reliable adults back then, knowing that they should care about the little brother who did not study hard.

"Get out, you think everyone is like you, you're going to lie down like a pig. I'm also an elite of the academy." Lu Mingfei said cheekily.

Since receiving the devil training from Miss Justice in Kassel College, Lu Mingfei's cultural level has improved a lot. Not only has his English ability increased rapidly, but he has also become proficient in dragon affairs. He can also understand some esoteric research documents.

The book he held in his hand was "Kojiki", a classic Japanese book, which contained Japanese myths and legends, as well as history, and was a very famous Japanese literary work.The content of the work tells the myths and legends of the founding of Japan, as well as the history of successive emperors from Emperor Jimmu to Emperor Tuiko.The whole book is written in Chinese characters. Although the subject-verb-object grammar of Chinese is the main word order, the grammatical structure of Japanese also appears from time to time, reflecting some characteristics of early Japanese variant Chinese.As the first dictionary in Japanese history, it is one of the earliest surviving Japanese literary works.

... To put it simply, looking at this thing is like reading ancient Chinese, which is a headache, and he doesn't want to read it after a second.

It's just that some of the content happened to be related to the "Amaterasu's Fate" that Lu Mingfei heard a few days ago, and the Izanami involved in it was confirmed by Old Tang to be the legendary White King.That's why Lu Mingfei really wanted to learn about the traces left by those dragons from the current history, so he bit the bullet and read on.

To be honest, he is not very interested in this kind of book, but this book was forced into him by Lu Mingze, which shows that this book is useful.However, Lu Mingfei expressed dissatisfaction with Lu Mingze. This little devil has always been tricking him when he appeared a few times before, so he has never believed in this little devil.

"You know Japanese culture, so you can brag when you go back." Lu Mingfei was full of nonsense.

He just briefly scanned the "Ancient Records". After all, this thing is completely written in classical Chinese. His Chinese scores back then were not very good, and he would suffer from headaches just reading simple ancient Chinese.And this is not only classical Chinese, but also mixed with some Japanese expressions, which seems nondescript.It was as strange as having a watermelon seed on the face of a peerless beauty.

He just asked for a simple understanding.After all, Lu Mingfei already knew similar content from cartoons, so don't underestimate the power of an otaku.But it is still necessary to calm down and comprehend. The professors said that the myths of various ethnic groups are rewritten according to history. Those seemingly absurd myths actually have their prototypes in history.

The most typical example is the Great Flood. According to the Bible, only Noah’s family and the animals on the ark survived the flood that submerged the entire world. Scientists who did not believe in religion before the 20th century believed that the Great Flood was completely Fictional, they couldn't imagine a flood that would inundate the whole world.

But gradually mythologists discovered that there is not only the Bible with great flood myths, from Mesopotamian mythology to ancient Chinese mythology to Indian mythology, all ethnic groups in Eurasia from east to west have passed down the flood that submerged the world The difference is only the savior. The Chinese believe that a strong man named Dayu took care of the flood, while the ancient Indian book "Manu Code" says that human beings survived the great flood because the boat of the ancestor Manu was destroyed by a giant fish. Brought to the Himalayas for salvation.

Then some scholars estimated that the Quaternary Ice Age on Earth ended about 1 years ago, a huge amount of glaciers melted, and the rising sea level led to a geological phenomenon called "sea immersion". The seawater submerged the lowlands. A worldwide flood remains in the memory of the ancients, so all ethnic groups have left behind the myth of the flood destroying the world.Now people are looking for Noah's Ark all over the world. They are looking for the remains of the big ship along the coast of the Black Sea and among the mountains of Greece. In the era when the earth was flooded, both the Black Sea and the mountains of Greece were submerged under water.

Since Japan has mixed races from ancient times to the present, there should be shadows of dragon civilization in Japanese mythology.

Coupled with his curiosity about the "Amaterasu" and Baiwang Izanami that Inuyama Masataka said, that's why Lu Mingfei bit the bullet and read it, but in the end he was a little disappointed.

Lu Mingfei was completely at a loss as he read that Japanese mythology was very petty and had nothing to do with the magnificent dragon civilization.

In the book, it is said that a pair of gods and goddesses, Izanaki and Izanami, stirred up sediment from the seabed, and the sediment settled to form Japan.Then the pair of brother and sister gods got married, because they couldn't find another blind date, which forced them to have such a forbidden relationship.The brother and sister gods were upgraded to husband and wife gods, and they multiplied the entire Japanese gods, such as fire gods, thunder gods, mountain gods, water gods...the gods were created vigorously, and even a big poop can become a god.Japanese mythology is the family history of the couple Izanagi and Izanami. All the gods are their family members, and all things are their family affairs.

It was completely different from the white king he had imagined, who could be as tough as the black king.

"You want to find out the relationship between Japanese mythology and dragon civilization?"

Chu Zihang moved his eyes away from the computer and glanced at the book Lu Mingfei was holding, "I'm afraid it will be difficult. The professors have tried to interpret Japanese mythology, but they have encountered huge obstacles. Japanese mythology and known For example, the gods in Japanese mythology have no rivals and continue to multiply like a big family. Professors cannot interpret conflicts and wars from it, and war is the main axis of dragon history."

"This book says that the Emperor's family is the descendants of the gods." Lu Mingfei flipped through the "Kojiki", "The first emperor, Emperor Jimmu, was a descendant of Amaterasu, isn't that amazing?"

"This is a characteristic of Japanese mythology. It has a very coherent timeline. Every generation of Izanagi and Izanami's descendants is written in the "Kojiki" in your hand, starting with Emperor Jimmu, and the subsequent generations. Every generation of descendants is the emperor, and every previous generation is a god. From this perspective, the Japanese emperor's family is the only existing god family with a family tree in the world."

Chu Zihang explained lightly, "But their gods are just names."

Old Tang curled his lips in disdain after hearing this: "According to what they said, then my blood descendants can also be regarded as the gods. To be honest, when I was still ruling mankind, I didn't Call yourself God."

"The only true god walking in the world now is the great Mr. Fool." Chu Zihang said such a sentence with no expression on his face.

"..." Old Tang.

"..." Lu Mingfei.

The image that popped up in the minds of both of them was not the "fool" wearing a black cloak and surrounded by mysterious gray fog, but the one wearing flip flops, wearing a big white T-shirt and dark pants , Xiao Zhou, an otaku with an ordinary square-framed glasses and a tired look on his face...

Cough... There is no way, the image of Brother Fool has been deeply ingrained in their minds, and they still have no way to associate the image of Brother Fool with that legendary god.

Lu Mingfei couldn't help feeling that if he showed the pamphlets about the great deeds of the Lord that the mysterious church is promoting, he would probably confiscate three rooms and one living room on the spot.

"Cough, let's continue talking about Japanese mythology." Lu Mingfei coughed and changed the subject.

After all, he didn't want Brother Fool's image in Chu Zihang's mind to gradually become weird.

"The genealogy of the Japanese emperor is indeed unreliable. The first ten generations of emperors only have written records but cannot be verified. Japanese writing history is like writing myths. Until World War II, many Japanese believed that the emperor was the descendant of God. It can be said that Japanese mythology It is one with history, and it can be said that the Japanese have lived in mythology from ancient times to the present, and the descendant of the gods is still the nominal emperor of this country." Chu Zihang said.

"Has there ever been a revival of ancient dragons in Japanese history?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"There is no record at all. I have checked with Norma, and there is no recovery event in Japan, and there are no remains of dragon civilization. Japan is the cleanest area in the world, and there is no dragon activity at all. The Japanese branch has dealt with it Most of the cases are trivial matters, such as an ancient artifact unearthed in Europe related to the dragon civilization that was auctioned in Japan."

"If Xia Mi hadn't said that Izanami in Japanese myths and legends is the White King, and the Japanese mixed-races are all descendants of the White King, we still don't understand where the Japanese mixed-races come from. It is said that they I don’t even know my own history.”

"It can only be said that they hid it very well and deceived all of you." Old Tang supported his head with one hand and pressed the remote control with the other, and said casually, "They obviously know their Where does the lineage come from, and all these actions of closely monitoring us are just to prevent us from discovering some truths."

"That's right." Chu Zihang nodded, "I checked their recent movements secretly, and found that they were very active somewhere before we arrived. On the contrary, after we arrived, they restrained themselves a little bit. .”

"It seems that our arrival has given them a lot of excitement." Lu Mingfei said, "Could it be that Miss Justice deliberately said that we have some secret mission, just to beat them up?"

"I don't know, but I think there should be a more important purpose." Chu Zihang guessed.

"Ham, I can't even simply want to go out for a trip, but now it seems to be involved inexplicably."

Old Tang complained.
