Chapter 265: First Hearing of the Stranger
Bi Ye said, "He was a strange man who lived more than 500 years ago. His name was Shenwu Bumie. He had great powers and was both good and evil. He saved the world hundreds of years ago, but he also planted a lot of disasters for future generations. In the final analysis, the Four-Nation War more than 200 years ago was also caused by him..."
Huang Jieshi said, "My opinion on this is slightly different from that of the general. Good and evil are originally difficult to distinguish, and they are more easily confused and misunderstood in troubled times. I personally believe that the right way must be used to govern the world, and the evil way must be used to save the world. Sometimes only by being more evil than the evil and more evil than the devil can we save the people from danger and return to the great way of heaven."
Bi Ye just smiled and didn't argue with him. He said, "The prophecy of 'the divine horse appears and a strange man is born' was passed down from him. People always think that when there is a divine horse, there will be a strange man, but that's not the case..." He paused and continued, "When people encounter disasters, they always like to place their hopes elsewhere. It is hard to determine whether this prophecy will come true. It is probably just people's vision."
Chu Xiaomu said, "I understand. It turns out that the immortal god and the yellow god appeared first, and then the phrase 'the divine horse appears, and the extraordinary man is born' appeared. But everyone has reversed the order."
Bi Ye said: "It's rare that you can think this way. People in the world don't know the truth, so this prophecy has been passed down. But even if an extraordinary person really appears, he may not bring salvation, but chaos or even destruction." As for the immortal power of Cheng Huang's former master, Bi Ye deliberately avoided mentioning it, and didn't seem to want to say too much.
Chu Xiaomu was curious, so he asked, "General, is this immortal god a human or a spirit? I heard from Sihu that he is dead. How did he die?"
Bi Ye smiled and said, "Young people are always curious about these things. If you want to hear the story, I can tell you for a year or two, but I'm afraid I won't be able to finish it." He turned to Huang Jieshi and said, "Jieshi said that this pony is the reincarnation of Cheng Huang. Do you have any other evidence?"
Huang Jieshi said, "How dare Wangmo speak nonsense to the general? There must be other evidence." He then said to Chu Xiaomu, "Brother Chu, please remove the hair on the horse's forehead."
Chu Xiaomu gently stroked Qisheng's head, half squatted down, and pushed aside some of the hair on the horse's forehead as he was told. Under the black hair, there was a thumb-sized bead, as red as blood and shaped like a fruit core, like another eye of Qisheng.
He had been with Qisheng for several months, and they were almost inseparable, but he had never noticed that there was a red bead on the forehead of the little black colt. This surprised him.
Bi Ye looked at the bead on Qi Sheng's forehead, frowned slightly, and said to himself: "It is indeed Cheng Huang. I have been looking for it for more than 20 years, but I have never found it. I didn't expect it to appear now."
Huang Jie Shi smiled and looked at General Bi Ye without saying a word.
Bi Ye suddenly came to his senses and said, "Master Jie just performed divination on the top of the platform using the spirit-walking illusion method. Could it be that he was calculating the prophecy of 'the divine horse will appear'?"
Huang Jieshi said: "These little tricks cannot be hidden from the general's sharp eyes."
Bi Ye asked again: "Could it be true that 'a divine horse appears, and an extraordinary person is born'?"
Huang Jieshi said: "It is hard to say whether this sentence is true or not, but it is definitely not just people's wish. The answer can only be seen after the feng shui is successful."
Bi Ye hurriedly asked: "What is the result?"
Huang Jieshi shook his head and said, "I didn't figure out anything. Brother Chu's words actually broke my illusion. It seems that this method of spiritual illusion is not feasible for astronomical geomancy after all."
Chu Xiaomu was shocked. He didn't expect that the fantastic scenes he and Bi Ye had just seen on the top of the platform were just illusions. The old man Du had told him not to disturb him. He couldn't help shouting out a word in a moment of anxiety. He actually broke Huang Jieshi's magic. What should he do? He bowed down and said, "I was ignorant and accidentally ruined a big thing. Please punish me, sir."
Huang Jieshi said: "Don't blame those who don't know. In the final analysis, it's because my magic has not been perfected. It's not Brother Chu's fault. I thought calling Cheng Huang to Shisantai would help this geomancy, but unfortunately it was of no use."
Chu Xiaomu chatted with him and told him a lot about the divine horse Chenghuang and the immortal alien.
Bi Ye frowned and said, "The people of the Claw Tribe broke into our Humu Pass and Nanding camp, and are now hiding in Huadu Hill and spying on our Bicheng. I'm sure Jie Shi already knows about this. You suddenly invited the two of us here, is it just to tell us that this little horse is Cheng Huang?" There was some displeasure in his words.
Huang Jieshi smiled and said, "Of course there are other things. Huang Jieshi is under the protection of the general, how dare I tease him?"
Bi Ye said, "Then please speak quickly, Master. Many of my soldiers and horses are still in danger, and I can't delay any longer."
Chu Xiaomu's heart trembled, thinking that he and Huang Jieshi had been talking about irrelevant things and had forgotten the important matters. No wonder the general was angry.
Huang Jieshi stopped beating around the bush and asked, "Is the general worried about why the Claw people want to move eastward?"
Bi Ye was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Huang Tianxiang even knew what just happened. It was not easy to hide it from him, so he said, "Yes, Zhou Bo, Yang Luo and I can't figure out why the Claw Tribe wants to go east. Is it really to go to Yutuo City?"
Mr. Huang Jie said: "General, I would like to ask a question. Is the cave hermit Ran Qingdeng still in Yutuo City?" Ran Qingdeng is one of the three strange men in the four countries of Cang, Lan, Chi and Bai. He has a strange personality and often lives in a hut in a flooded cave. Therefore, he is called the cave hermit.
Bi Ye said, "I haven't heard from this man for a long time. I wonder if he is still in Yutuo City. Why did Jie Shi suddenly mention him?"
Huang Jieshi said, "I traveled around a lot in the past few months. In fact, I was also looking for the mysteries of the universe and calculating the flow of spiritual energy. The southernmost place I went was Yinling Town, Baijun City, and the westernmost place was 800 miles west of Yuzu Island." Turning to look at Chu Xiaomu, he smiled and said, "I wanted to look for your hometown, Baihua Island, but the journey was too far and the waves were strong. The boatmen dared not go any further, so they had to turn back. If I had a bigger boat and hired some boatmen, I would still go there."
Without waiting for Chu Xiaomu to speak, Huang Jieshi continued to say to Bi Ye: "I have observed the changes in the mysteries of heaven and earth, and the key to the secrets of heaven has indeed undergone great changes. There are evil spirits causing chaos in the Lixuan Island in the south, but it is only because of the disorder of spiritual energy; the Death Point near Baihua Island in the west is already collapsing. The ancient tripod stolen by the Snow Country people that Brother Chu mentioned is indeed the Mingyuan Tripod placed in the Death Point!"
