I nodded woodenly and said in a gentle voice, "Yes, I did drip blood on the two fragments of the divine map!"
Seeing me nod, the face of the "Jubizhishi" head suddenly showed a smile.
Its blue face is full of wrinkles when it smiles, which is really ugly.
It asked me again, "Human boy, do you know the full name of this fragment of the divine map?"
Of course I know, Hai Mingdong has already told me that the full name of the divine map is "Divine Map of Mountains, Rivers and the State".
But I was worried that after I said the name of the divine map, this guy called "Jubizhishi" would threaten me and ask me to tell him more. I knew very little about the divine map, and if I took up the conversation, I was afraid that I would inevitably be criticized by "Jubizhishi".
With this thought in mind, I decided to keep it secret for the time being.
I pretended not to know and shook my head and said to Jubizhishi: "Senior Jubizhishi, I don't really know much about those two pieces of rags. I only know that they are extraordinary and powerful. Even the dripping blood was discovered by me by accident."
Seeing that I didn't know much about the divine map, a look of disappointment appeared on "Jubizhishi"'s face.
It muttered, "I thought you, a human kid, could already control the fragments of the 'Divine Map of Mountains and Rivers'. You know, this 'Divine Map of Mountains and Rivers' was the treasure of Emperor Huang Ji Xuanyuan. I didn't expect that it would end up in your hands, and it turned into fragments."
"It seems that something big must have happened at the end of the ancient times. Yes, something must have happened, otherwise, the sky would not change, people would not change, and the spiritual energy would not disappear..."
The "Jubizhishi" stood there mumbling endlessly, and the way it talked to itself was really a bit weird. And I didn't dare to speak casually, for fear of causing trouble.
Sometimes it is good to talk less!
However, I still figured out some things from the words of "Jubizhishi". First of all, "Jubizhishi" didn't know why the ancient times ended. It also didn't know that the war between Emperor Huang Ji Xuanyuan and "Demon" Mosuluo was the direct cause of the end of the ancient times.
In addition, the previous words of "Jubizhishi" said that it was sealed in the "Soul Burial Monument" by some "Bodhi Laozi", which means that "Jubizhishi" was actually sealed before the destruction of the ancient times.
It can be said that it was precisely because the "Jubi Corpse" was sealed that it escaped a disaster and survived.
I see. I seem to know something about the "corpse".
After a while, Jubizhishi seemed to have thought of something and asked me again, "By the way, human boy, if you drop blood on the divine map, you can open the fragment of the divine map. What did you find in the fragment of the divine map?"
Damn it, I originally wanted to conceal the matter between Tubagen and Haimingdong. But now I am afraid I can’t conceal it anymore. However, I thought that Tubagen and Haimingdong were both strong. Could it be that the two of them together could not deal with a “Jubizhi Corpse”? Perhaps, they would have a way.
Seeing that I squinted my eyes and didn't say anything, "Jubizhishi" flashed and appeared directly in front of me.
When I say in front of me, I don't mean a few meters away or a few feet away, but face to face. When its single red eye stared at me, it seemed as if blood was about to flow out of the eye, which was very scary.
"Human boy, are you trying to play some tricks? If you dare to play any tricks...
If you say so, I don't mind ending your life and extracting your soul as my own food."
When "Jubizhishi" said this, his voice was unusually cold and serious.
Damn it, this is what happens when you are not as strong as others. I accept it!
I subconsciously stepped back a few steps and quickly replied, "Senior Jubizhishi, you misunderstood me. I didn't mean to play any tricks. Since you asked me what I found after opening the fragment of the divine map, I'll tell you."
But what I didn’t expect was that “Jubizhishi” interrupted me at this time.
It said bluntly: "Human boy, don't call me 'Jubizhishi' directly. That is the name of my race. I have my own name, my name is Guolu. You can just call me 'Gulu'... As for any other names, don't call me randomly. That is discrimination against our 'Jubizhishi' race!"
Guru! Boiler?!
I was a little confused. What a weird name.
What I didn't know was that the fact that "Jubizhishi" Guru could talk to me like this and let me call him by his name "Guru" was actually a recognition of me. Why? Because I dripped blood on the fragments of the divine map.
From now on, we will stop calling it "Jubizhishi" and call it "Guolu" instead.
"Okay, now tell me, what did you find after opening the divine map?"
I nodded.
Afterwards, I told Guolu about my discovery of the ancient human race and the ancient sea race in the two fragments of the divine map.
Of course, I only said that I discovered the ancient human race and the ancient sea race, but I did not mention the fact that I could summon the human race and the sea race from the fragments of the divine map. Even if I mentioned the ancient human race and the ancient sea race, I only briefly mentioned them.
After hearing what I said, Gulu's expression became extremely excited.
He said to me in surprise: "The one wearing the animal skin skirt and holding the bones is from the ancient human tribe. The one who looks like a fish with a tail is from the ancient sea tribe."
"I didn't expect that, human boy, you actually got the fragments of the ancient human and ancient sea tribe's divine map! And you also got their recognition. Not bad!..."
At this time, I had already reached into my cloth bag. My fingers pressed on the red lacquer coffin. If "Jubizhishi" Guolu wanted to kill me, I would throw the red lacquer coffin. When the time comes, I don't believe that the giant beast Taotie will not help.
However, what I didn't expect was that after I finished explaining how I got the two pieces of the magic picture fragments, Guolu actually walked over slowly, stretched his head and handed me the two pieces of the magic picture fragments in his mouth.
"You...you...what are you doing?"
I asked hesitantly, unable to figure out what "Jubizhishi" Guolu was thinking.
But the next moment, Gulu suddenly knelt down in front of me.
Before I could react, Guolu said, "Human, I am willing to serve you as my master and help you find the other fragments of the divine map. As long as you get the divine map of Emperor Huang Ji Xuanyuan, you will be able to control the situation between heaven and earth."
"By then, your strength will surely improve by leaps and bounds! Apart from ghosts and monsters, there are not many things left in this world that can pose a threat to you."
I was shocked by the actions of "Jubizhishi" Gulu.
Seeing that I didn't say anything, Guolu said again: "Human race, don't worry, I sincerely regard you as my master. However, I have a request - that is, after you get the divine map and grasp the general situation between heaven and earth, I hope you can help me "return to my ancestors" and let me become the "immortal race" I used to be.
'. "
Atavism? The former "immortal race"
The more I listened to Gulu's words, the more confused I became!
"Um... Guru, please stand up first, don't kneel down. I'm not used to you being like this. I don't quite understand what you're saying. Can you explain it in detail?"
I tried my best to relax and said politely.
Guolu replied respectfully, "Yes, Master!"
Then Gulu told me some things about it and the purpose or reason why it chose me as its master.
It turns out that the "Jubi Shi" tribe existed a long time ago. They were originally a member of the immortal tribe, called "Jubi", and followed Emperor Fuxi. However, because they did something wrong and violated the majesty of Emperor Fuxi, they were thrown into the "underground ghost cave" by Emperor Fuxi.
In the "Underground Ghost Cave", the "Jubi" tribe began to devour ghost energy because they had no food. Slowly, over time, the "Jubi" tribe members turned into something that was neither human nor ghost. Even their own body structure changed.
Many years later, Emperor Fuxi pardoned the Jubi tribe for their crimes and released them from the "Ghost Cave". However, the Jubi tribe had nowhere to live after they were released and were ostracized by other races. As a result, the Jubi tribe's leader led his people to join the demon tribe.
They became vassals of the demons and cultivated their voices in the demons' territory! At that time, the "Jubi" tribe was no longer called the "Jubi" tribe, but was called "Jubi Corpses" by all the tribes at that time.
This is the origin of the "Jubizhishi" clan and its name.
Later, the Jubishi tribe also participated in many large and small battles with other races. But there was not much loss of tribe members. Because the Jubishi tribe's territory in the demon territory was very small, and they often hid in the caves, so other races didn't care about them at all.
Many years passed in a flash. Later, Guolu became the chief of the "Jubizhishi" tribe. However, Guolu, who became the chief, was bewitched by the demons, so Guolu led his tribe and attacked the human race, the beast race, and the fairy race together with the demons, ghosts, and monsters. Of course, there were many other races in ancient times.
Later, the Jubizhishi tribe failed and was driven back into the underground cave. However, this was not the end. The Taoist priest Bodhi Laozi came to the Jubizhishi tribe and used his superb magic power to seal the then Jubizhishi tribe leader, Guolu, in the Soul Burial Monument.
Bodhi Laozi told Guolu that as long as he absorbed ghost energy that exceeded the Soul Burial Monument's capacity, the Soul Burial Monument would break open on its own, and that would be the day Guolu would regain his freedom.
At that time, Bodhi Laozi also hinted to Guokang that the world was about to be destroyed, saying that his seal on Guolu was a punishment and also an opportunity. At that time, Guolu did not understand.
But now after seeing me, "Jubizhishi" Guolu finally understood.
Guolu stared at me with burning eyes and said, "Now I finally understand what Bodhi Laozi meant! Although I was sealed, I escaped the disaster of the ancient times. This is indeed an opportunity for me."
"Moreover, I met you, and you got the fragment of the 'Divine Map of Mountains, Rivers, and States'. This is a greater opportunity for me. I can use the 'Divine Map of Mountains, Rivers, and States' to return to my ancestral state and become an immortal again! I don't have to live like this 'neither human nor ghost' anymore!"
