In the attic, Lorraine Hill listened to the disciple of the Mingyue Heart Palace talking about some things in the past, such as the ancient story of 'white birds chasing the water', the three big cities proposed along the river, and the development of them from it. The Linnan Three Kingdoms, these three countries are the origin of the twenty-two continents in the south today.
"Miss Jialan knows about the 'Battle of Xin Bai'." Man Mingshi asked during the banquet.
"Never heard of it."
"This is also normal, because most of the records about these things were lost when the dynasty was established, and the dynasty also deliberately prevented everyone from remembering some old things."
"In the past years, the tribes of Xin and Lei Xiaze who were mowing Xiazhou joined forces to attack Bai Ze in the south, but Bai Ze was defeated, and sought help from Lieyi and Donghai in the south. After that, Xin also recruited Lei Qizhou to mow down. All the different races in the Hundred Thousand Mountains helped each other, and the two sides fought on the Windwalking Field, causing countless casualties."
"In this battle, although the Linnan Three Kingdoms finally repelled the attack of the Xinguo, but it was also severely damaged, and the Youxin country, who was originally in the rising stage, had to return to Gulei Qizhou, where there were many evil insects and poisonous waters. , lost the opportunity to grow."
"Since the death of Xuanfeng Miaozhu, the poisonous waters of the seven continents have spread again. As a result, the several veins left by Xuanfeng Miaozhu have slowly withered, and they have to migrate to other places, or slowly decline."
"This is also the reason for the inheritance of the five phoenixes. The Miaozhu line has the smallest number of people, and now there is not even a prominent person."
"Isn't there even a family heirloom?" Roland Hill asked slightly surprised.
"Yes."
"Among the existing five phoenix lineages, the red phoenix is the most numerous, followed by the five veins of the green luan, then the four branches of the scorpion, and then the two sects of Honghu. Some loose parties."
"After the catastrophe of chaos, the mountains and rivers were broken, and demons were rampant everywhere. During that time, many past inheritances were lost and dissipated."
"It has been more than a hundred years since all the ethnic groups in the world regained their vitality, and then it will be the story of the rise of the four kingdoms of Chiyao, Huoque, Jinhua, and Honglin, because the four countries are the inheritance of Chifeng, customs, customs and customs. It was close to each other, and later, under the mediation of Chifeng, they were united into one country, which is also the predecessor of the current dynasty."
"Why is the royal family name of the current dynasty not unique? That's the reason. The four surnames Ling, Heng, Xiao, and Luo were all the royal families of the four kingdoms in the past."
…
During the banquet, Roland Hill slowly learned about the secrets of the establishment of some dynasties, and lamented that Chifeng was strong in those days, able to unite so many forces from all sides and form an alliance in the mountains of the Yellow Sea.
In fact, in addition to the five phoenixes, there are many factions established by 'Flying Immortals' in various places. Many of them have also been passed down to the present, and they are one of the powerful door-to-doors in the world. Among them, Roland Hill is familiar with such as 'Wanziqianhong' Gu', such as 'Dragon Tree Blood Exhausted Sect', 'Tiger Roaring Nine Desolate Mountains', etc., as well as the 'Red Immortal Religion' which used to be brilliant and now declined.
It's just that now, several direct lineages of Chifeng have been integrated into the government of the dynasty, so among the door-to-door families belonging to the inheritance of Wufeng, Qingluan has the most inheritance, and there are five, namely 'Qinglian Xijian Palace'' Hanshan Yanxingmen''Biluo Xiaoyao Palace''Lu Ningyan Bifang''Green Pine Peacock Mountain'.
Down below, it is the scorpion, that is, the inheritance left by Dorothy, because Dorothy was busy in the Western Continent at that time, and the veins on the east side were passed down by her friend 'The Fairy of the Red Chunk'. The Burning Sun and Feather Sect where Loren Hill belongs, as well as the 'Burning Incense Star Watching Mansion', 'Ning Zi Zhao Ye Palace' and 'Autumn Twilight Copper Dragon Valley' branched out by the Feather Sect.
In this way, several people talked about the origin of the world today, and some old and old past events, until the moon set and the stars were sinking, and it was silent and silent in the middle of the night.
That night, Loren Hill stayed in the mansion for a while, and they talked a lot the next day, and the three-person room gradually became familiar and friendly.
As the sun approached dusk, Roland Hill said goodbye to the two friends who were kindly retained, took the boat that came, and gradually left in the small river in the ancient town.
Standing on the edge of the river to say goodbye to the two, watching the figure of the girl in white disappear from sight, and after a long time, turned around and returned to the house.

"What do you think of this Miss Jialan?" Man Mingshi asked the young head of Bailu Qixuanfang beside him.
"I can't see through it, so it's not easy to evaluate." He walked in front with one hand behind him, shaking his head slightly.
"I knew immediately after she came to Fuzhong, but I still dragged you and observed it from a distance for a long time before I decided to see her."
"Zhu Xuanyi's strength, you and I both know, although he only brought three floating giant boats that day, but with the help of the elite disciples of Yanxingmen, the special Qinglong formation, and the various organs on the giant boat. Blessings, it is enough to ask a weaker family to come to the door."
"But even so, he was defeated by this Miss Jialan."
"I didn't want to believe such absurd rumors, but there were hundreds of thousands of people who testified at the scene at the time, and the Yanxingmen also retreated on their own, all of which proved the truth of the matter."
"So, I didn't know how to deal with this Miss Dragon Witch when she came to visit, so I had to pull you over here, as a way to save face and let the other party have a little scruples."
"Hehehe~" Man Mingshi covered his mouth and smiled.
"I didn't expect Jiang Zhangzuo, who was called 'Hanlu Sword', and Senior Brother Jiang, to be flustered at times. I didn't see it at all at that time."
"I saw you with a calm face and a calm expression at that time. I thought that the visit of this Miss Jialan was already expected. Thanks to me, I can rest assured to follow you."
"Tsk tsk, it seems that since the death of Master Xuan, no one in Qixuanfang can see through the activities in your heart." not anymore.
"However, I chatted with her a lot, and I feel that this lady's personality is still easy to get along with, as long as you don't make her angry."
"So, the key is how do I know if I'm offending her? Ever since I stepped into Bailu Qixuanfang, I, Jiang Zaisu, haven't tried to please others. Over the years, I haven't seen anyone who can make me humble, even if it's Master. , I was mostly praised back then, and seldom scolded." Jiang Zaisu shook his head, he has been a highly anticipated genius since he was a child, and now he is the leader of the house, there is no reason for him to bend over to please people.
"Fortunately, this time you are a guest with us, otherwise I really don't know how to entertain this Miss Jialan."
"Forget it, let's not talk about this, Mingshi, have you seen anything? I saw you chatting with her for a long time, and occasionally whispering a few words."
"Me, I have seen some, but I dare not say it."
"Oh, what is that?" Jiang Zaisu was suddenly interested, and then stopped.
"This Miss Jialan may be a 'goddess', that is, an existence similar to Wufeng."
"'Goddess'..." Jiang Zaisu walked up again, but at a very slow pace, recalling some records in the pie as he walked.
"It is said that those immortal 'goddesses' are the original 'immortals'. They are different from the 'flying immortals' who cultivate themselves, the 'Dongxian' who rely on the secret realm of the cave, and the invisible 'Youxian' who are charismatic and invisible. Naturally powerful, it can even touch the way of heaven, master a law between the ways of heaven, and use it for itself, similar to gods, and because of this, it can be called 'immortal'."
In oriental legends, there is a life that lives on the misty high mountains and is immortal. People collectively call such existences 'immortals'. In some factions with profound knowledge and deep inheritance, everyone will maintain their own way according to the difference. , classified 'immortals' into several categories, and later there were sages teaching under the purple banyan tree, teaching disciples how to climb the ladder to become immortals.
"It's no wonder that she looks so young, yet so powerful, that she can defeat the many disciples of Yanxingmen by herself," Jiang Zaishu said slowly.
"Back then, Chifeng and the immortals made an alliance on the mountain of the Yellow Sea. A 'goddess' like her should abide by the way of escaping the world and not easily interfere in the world. I don't want to break it now, no wonder I didn't think of this place before. ."
Man Mingshi kept up with Jiang Zaisu's pace and continued to add.
"I see that she doesn't seem to break it on purpose, but rather innocent and romantic without knowing it."
"Maybe this 'goddess' just woke up not long ago. She doesn't know the covenant of the Yellow Sea Mountain at all. She didn't make an oath, and naturally she doesn't need to abide by the covenant."
"A 'goddess' who is not bound by the alliance, this is really an accident." Jiang Zaishu seemed to sigh.
"It's not a bad thing, right? If today's collapse is imminent, if someone can come out to take charge of the universe and recreate the old things of the five phoenixes, it is also possible for everyone to respect him as a phoenix and re-establish the alliance."
"Now, we have shown our kindness. If that day comes, this Miss Jialan will remember us."
Man Mingshi and Jiang Zaisu stepped into the mansion in the ancient town again, and soon the door slowly closed, only the tall and shady plane tree still stretched its branches and leaves in the sun, swaying slightly in the wind.
It was planted by Honghu in the past, but now it looks like a roof.
———
After leaving Bailu Qixuanwu, Loren Hill followed the river to the north and walked all the way.
On the way, you can see big cities and small towns dotted along both sides of the river. After you are far away from the river, you will find a large area of wilderness. The open field is full of withered yellow and green weeds. Not a single family can be seen for more than ten miles, only the lonely sheep intestine path in the wilderness, winding vaguely in the yellow field.
Even such trails are the legacy of caravans traveling north and south from generation to generation.
Between the twenty-two continents in the south and the seven continents of Mianlei, there is such a large area of wilderness, only the places where a few waterways pass through will be more prosperous.
It is said that in the past, Xin Guoguo led the various tribes in the 100,000-strong mountain to conquer the south, and among them there was a nine-headed snake with yellow scales. The blood is flowing and the poison has been left for hundreds of miles, making this wilderness unsuitable for human habitation. Only some weeds can grow. If other crops are planted, they will either wither and poison to death, or they are not edible.
As dusk approached, the sky gradually darkened.
Roland Hill looked at the barren wilderness that was still not over, and stopped.
The sky gradually turned to a cold light blue, the sunset in the distance was close to the horizon, and the orange-red afterglow became hazy and lake-like in the shadow of the grass, getting darker and darker, and occasionally a few lonely owls could be heard overhead.
Looks like I have to spend the night here tonight.
Roland Hill looked around and found a relatively dry and flat place, then took out the tent that had not been used for a long time from the storage space, and set it up on the ground before the fire started.
At this time, it was pitch black all around.
The pile of crackling bonfires in front of them seemed to have become the center of the world and everything. The crimson flames swayed, bringing a little warmth and sound, breaking the darkness and silence around them.
Sitting by the bonfire, Roland Hill took off his shoes, put his feet on the wooden board in front of the bonfire, relaxed a little, then hugged his knees and looked at the flames in front of him.
The surroundings are very quiet, not only are there no beasts coming out to feed, there are not even insects, no wonder no one lives there.
However, she hadn't enjoyed this peaceful state for a while.
With his body on his knees, Roland Hill tilted his head slightly, his eyes lit up by the firelight, swaying crystal clear, staring at the bonfire in front of him in a daze, letting his thoughts dance slowly.
After a while, she slowly stretched out her wrist and looked at the white and slightly slender fingers, the subtle lines in the palm of the hand, and the few hairs on the back of the hand, all of which were clearly visible in the firelight.
The fire brought warmth, but there was a bit of coldness behind it.
Since I came to this world, several decades have passed before I knew it, which is about half of an ordinary person's life.
His body still hasn't changed much, and even his appearance is still in the state he was awake at that time. Now that I think about it, I suddenly feel a little unreal.
Everything in the Western Continent, whether it is the rise of Crancia, the rich and interesting school life, the turbulent and drastic civil strife in the empire, each is a long and full of memories. Over the decades, some have grown and matured gradually, some have changed their personalities, and some have been lying in a corner forever, gradually being forgotten.
But unlike them, he doesn't seem to have changed too much. Maybe one day in the future, these friends and deceased friends will gradually grow old, full of wrinkles, walking in the yard with crutches, and he is still sixteen or seventeen now. Aged appearance.
At first, she liked the talent of eternal youth and longevity, but now it seems that there is a kind of panic.
There are times when mortals will fall asleep and end, but she is different as a witch. She will not fall because of time, but will only fight against herself again and again in a long time and convince herself to live.
At first, this was something that could be done instinctively without thinking, but now Roland Hill has gradually realized the panic and confusion under the word eternity.
She has been running for the future of the world in the Western Continent for more than ten years, and finally ended the chaotic world. Now that she came to the Eastern Continent, she did not expect to encounter this upcoming chaotic world.
Difficulties and things to be accomplished seem to have no end in sight, and there will never be an end to stop. If it is a mortal, he will stop at a certain time, and others will recognize this stop.
However, as a witch, without this stop sign, you can only continue to move forward endlessly along the trajectory of life.
She poured a lot of emotions and experiences into the affairs of the Western Continent, but now coming to the East, does it mean that she has to re-enact what she has experienced? Compared with the relatively clear Western Continent Empire, the Eastern Dynasty has a wider area. The situation will be more complicated. Just thinking about it for a while makes Roland Hill feel a sense of powerless insignificance.
Go up the high-rise building alone and look at the end of the world. At the end of the end, will there be a day when you can stop and rest, or is it boundless.
The warm bonfire still swayed in the night, a little churning wood ashes floated from the firewood, and there was the smell of fireworks.
The girl leaned against the bonfire, her eyes closed slightly, her breathing gradually eased, and she entered a peaceful nap.
