Chapter 232 (1/2)

Gu Qianlin rarely said anything so serious. When she spoke, she looked at An Zhe with a complicated expression, giving An Zhe a feeling that he would never let down her words.

Perhaps mentioning the fact that the Ancient Hunting Clan had not returned for a long time, Gu Qianye's tone was rather faint, but everyone could feel his longing.

She looked down at the gla.s.s of water in her hand and let the steam rise from it into her face.

””The reason why the Ancient Hunters never left the mountain is also because of that ancient legend.””

Her voice was very soft, but her voice was very pleasant and clear. She was an extremely beautiful narrator. Even though she did not speak of her own personal experience, it was still sufficient to attract others.

If the people in the teahouse telling stories from other places were as beautiful as she was, and their voices were so pleasant to the ears, the teahouse would probably be full of people day and night.

””At my age, I shouldn't have gotten to the secret so early.

Perhaps it was because my father only had one child, and he was worried about his own body, so after I began to understand things, he began to explain it to me over and over again.

Maybe he thinks I'm too young to remember.

He was afraid that I would remember the whole thing when I pa.s.sed it on to the next heir. ””

””My father was injured in the war with the people of Yan, and then he had me.

His body had never recovered, and he had always been immersed in remorse and remorse.

If he didn't want to take the hunters out of the mountains, the clansmen wouldn't have suffered such a heavy blow.

””He always tells me about it again and again … Child, remember one thing. As the clan leader, you definitely can't be too greedy, otherwise, you'll make a big mistake.””

She changed her mind and smiled apologetically at An He. ””I'm really sorry. I was going to tell you about the secret of the ancient saint.””

She placed the cup on the table, thought for a moment, and then said, ””Legend has it that in the time of the G.o.ds there were three origins of the original civilization.””

The first was the place where the Da Xi was located. It was called the civilization of the Central Plains.

Second, the Buddhist State of the Western Regions, according to the records, it was called the Ancient Na Civilization.

The other one was north of Swallow Mountain. It was the predecessor of the nomadic people of the gra.s.sland. It was called the Peak Civilization.

””According to the records, at that time, the three civilizations were all ruled by fiendish demons.””

””After that, I thought that the so-called fiendish demons probably weren't real fiendish demons, but rather people who had turned into fiendish demons.

In other words, at that time, those with malicious thoughts but powerful strength ruled these places.

During that time, cultivation was strictly forbidden. Only the people under the ruler were allowed to practice cultivation.

In order to consolidate their dominance, they even continuously searched among the commoners for children with the potential to cultivate. They even found one and killed one. ””

””Their armies will even go deep into the mountains, and not even the smaller clans will let them go.

Until one day, there was a leader who could not bear the guilt and torment. He secretly let go of the seven children who had the potential to cultivate.

The oldest of the seven children was nine years old, while the youngest was no more than five or six years old.

Although they were let go and left to fend for themselves in the mountains.

””But they are too small after all. In such a dangerous and primal forest, their chances of survival are almost zero.””

””At this time, the oldest of them stood up and became their leader.

He took care of his brothers and sisters, found food for them, woven clothes out of bark and gra.s.s, and built shanty huts to shelter them from the wind and rain.

Just like that, they had lived in the forest for several years and miraculously survived.

Then one day they were fis.h.i.+ng in a big lake in the mountains and there was a flash flood. ””

””The flood almost flooded the tall mountains. They thought they were going to die.

But as they bounced from the waves, an enormous, indescribable holy fish appeared to save them.

The holy fish gave each of them a powerful cultivation technique, as well as the largest child, the holy fish scales.

From that day onwards, the seven of them began to train arduously in the forest. They spent a good thirty years before finally reaching great success in cultivation.

””The other children all felt that this was good. Now that they have the power to protect themselves, they no longer need to fear the beasts' attacks.

However, the eldest child felt that self-preservation was not enough. He still needed more children to survive, kill the demons, and rescue everyone.

The six children all considered him to be their father and brother, so their decision was not opposed to his at all. ””

””When we first entered the mountain, we were all not even ten years old. By the time we left, we were already middle-aged.””

””They started to challenge the demons. Although they experienced all sorts of hards.h.i.+ps and dangers, in the end, they still succeeded.””

She looked towards An Zhe, ””This is the story of the legendary Seven Ancient Saints of the Ancient Hunters.””

Qu Liuxi, who was sitting quietly at the side, asked curiously, ””Why did this story end up with the legacy of the Ancient Hunters?””

””Where are the others?””

Gu Qianye explained, ””That's because after defeating the fiendish demon, the relations.h.i.+p between the seven of them had also changed.

Some people think that they have saved all life and deserve to be wors.h.i.+pped by all life.

However, their leader believed that this way, they were no different from the demons that they had gone through countless hards.h.i.+ps to kill.

Those who rule the people simply change from devils to them. ””

””There was a disagreement between them, and the feelings of many years became fragile and ended in discord.

The chief insisted on the free development of men, unconstrained.

Three of them could not stand his stubbornness and left in a huff.

The three of them went north, where the mountaintop civilization was.

They chose one of them to become a king and rule the entire prairie. ””

””The original agreement was that the three of them would take turns to be the King.
