Yang Yu pretended to be surprised and said, "It's really unexpected. Many races like to put their gods in the supreme position.
But you said that the sea mother was only your creator.
In your culture, demihumans other than the Seirens were created by other people?"
Jiaoxi stretched his body lazily and said, "I'm not sure about that.
However, the Goddess sect I once studied always told me that the world was created by the Goddess.
We live in this world, everything is a gift from the Goddess.
At that time, in order to learn treatment, I was really indoctrinated with a lot of Goddess cult concepts.
My faith has been shaken several times.
After returning to the Ocean Principality, I confirmed everything about the Sea Mother once again, and finally strengthened my faith in the Sea Mother. "
"Since it was the sea mother that created you, how was the sea mother born? How did she create you? And where did your sea mother go in the end?" Yang Yu continued to ask.
Although Yang Yu has collected various legends, the legends in this world are too complicated, and Yang Yu's understanding of many legends is only superficial.
Yang Yu also knew some legends about the sea mother.
But to Yang Yu at that time, the legend of the sea mother was just one of many legends.
After listening to Jiao Xi's words, Yang Yu felt that he was one step closer to the truth and decided to dig deeper.
Jiao Xi's answer was somewhat ambiguous, but it did not disappoint Yang Yu:
“In our culture, the birth of the sea mother is rarely mentioned.
It's just that the sea jellyfish was created with a certain mission, and we, the Searens, were also created to fulfill a certain mission.
The jellyfish absorbed our ancestors who originally lived on land, allowing them to merge with the sea and create the various marine species we have today.
As for where the sea mother went...
The sea dam is sleeping in the depths of the distant sea.
She accomplished her mission, but not completely.
She is waiting for someone to wake her up and let her complete her final mission.
In order not to disturb the sea mother's rest, we, the Searens, rarely go near the place where the sea mother sleeps.
Only the Sea Perches that perform devout worship will migrate in the direction where the Sea Mother sleeps.
”
After repeatedly reading Jiao Xi's words, Yang Yu glanced at the system and found that no new tasks appeared on the task panel.
"Aren't you afraid that someone other than you will step into the place where the sea mother sleeps?"
Jiao looked at the endless sea and gave an answer that surprised Yang Yu even more:
“If they dare to enter the place where the sea mother sleeps, the race guarding the sleeping sea mother will wipe them out.
Even devout believers can only return after reaching a certain range.
If you go deep into the place where the sea mother sleeps, it will be regarded as a transgression and will be eliminated by the sea mother's followers.
Moreover, the sea mother is sleeping in the cold abyss of the ocean. It is estimated that no one and no means can reach there. "
"Didn't you just say that the Sea Mother still has an unfinished mission? Without people, means, and protection from a powerful clan, how can we awaken the Sea Mother?"
Looking up at the sky, Jiaoxi sang a ballad that Yang Yu could not understand, and the beautiful singing kept echoing on the sea.
After singing for less than a minute, Jiao Xi stopped singing and asked Yang Yu:
"Can you understand the song I just sang?"
Yang Yu shook his head, "Is it the ancient writing of your Sea People?"
Jiaoxi nodded again and said, "This is a ballad that was passed down a long time ago. The text has completely disappeared and the accuracy of every tune cannot be guaranteed.
Its meaning, however, has been passed down from generation to generation without any change:
'Walk along the road where the stars intersect, piece together the fragments scattered in the sky, assemble them according to the prompts, and put them in the right place, and the treasure chest containing the treasure will appear.
Under the guidance of the fairy who records the world, you can enter another unknown world and find the key to open the treasure chest.
Only the treasure in the treasure chest can awaken the sea mother.'
Anyone who can obtain that treasure will be qualified to awaken the sea mother.
The race that serves the sea mother and the awakened sea mother will obey the orders of the person holding the treasure and complete their mission.
This is the final ending of our legend.
However, assuming that the stars are really the same as the sun as our culture says, how do we walk through the road where the stars intersect
It is precisely because of this that some people feel that legends are out of reach.”
Pinching his face with his hands, Yang Yu thought quietly, and the figures of several people flashed through his mind.
There is Sennasha of the [Red Rose], there is Sennasha's ancestor Izo, there is Clochi, the guardian of the [Hall of Power]
Some of the words they had said kept playing in front of Yang Yu's eyes like fragments.
Yang Yu had a feeling that something was about to connect, but, everything in his mind failed to connect in the end.
Lacking certain evidence and clues, making random guesses and resulting in certain wrong judgments may lead to unexpected consequences.
Yang Yu still needs more clues and evidence, and let the bullets fly for a while before he can draw the final conclusion:
“Some legends are true. It’s just that they have been processed and polished by later generations that they have gradually become unreliable.
It is difficult to judge whether the legend of the sea jellyfish is true or false.
In addition to these legends, are there any other legends about the sea mother? I want to know more. "
Jiaoxi smiled and said, "Of course. It just so happens that the boat ride is quite boring. Since you are interested, I will tell you slowly."
At this moment, Lingshan, chewing on dried fish, came over with Luo Hasta without warning.
“It’s been so long and there’s still no enemy. I’m so idle.
Yang Yu, are you free
If you have time, let's practice casually.
Here on the ship, we don't need to use any skills, how about we just fight with skills?"
Yang Yu refused outright: "I'm collecting intelligence, so forget it. Besides, it's hard to perform on the ship. Once we find [Collecting Corpses into Coffins] and make all the preparations, I will personally train you so that the team can get used to each other."
"That's a deal. Would you like some dried fish? They're delicious." Jiao Xi happily took out some dried fish from under his armor and handed them to Yang Yu.
Yang Yu waved his hand: "No."
"Then you guys can chat slowly. You can come to see me anytime you are free. I am always available."
Having said that, Lingshan left openly again.
Luo Hasta sighed, but did not immediately follow Lingshan's steps and leave. Instead, he said to Yang Yu:
“I heard you guys were talking about the sea mother just now.
In the flower basket where I fought, there was a ghost of a Seirens who claimed to be the spokesperson of the Sea Mother.
I could sense that this was no ordinary Searen.
Go ask around, maybe you can get some useful information."
