If you don't give up, I'd like to be your adoptive father.

Chapter 646 Turtle Back Mountain

"I am a barbarian and have never been to southern China. I don't know whether the Chinese know the truth." Xiaoyu said this, but in his heart he suspected that the Xia Dynasty had "fine-tuned" the history books.

"From what you said, could it be that there were more than five human emperors in ancient times?" she asked doubtfully.

"Do you mean 'Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors'?" Fang Fengji said, "I don't know the era when the Emperor attained enlightenment. It is very far away from us.

Just like the time of Dayu to your modern times.

But there are indeed more than five "Sons of Heaven" in the human race.

The 'Five Emperors' that you 'descendants' refer to should be referring to the five emperors with the greatest achievements.

You didn't even unify the identities and names of the Five Emperors, right?
Everyone has a different view.

In my opinion, Xia Yu is not worthy of being listed as one of the 'Five Emperors of the Human Race' along with 'Yao and Shun.'"

"Is it the 'Son of Heaven'? Aren't they the Emperor of Man? The Five Emperors should be more noble and more powerful than the Emperor of Man, right?" Xiao Yu said in surprise.

"Either the Emperor of Man or the Son of Heaven."

At this time, Fang Fengjie was in the water escape state. Xiaoyu could not see his expression, but could hear that his tone was strange, like sarcasm, and like self-mockery.

“Unlike you modern mortals, in our time, the gods and the people on earth had frequent exchanges.

What you now regard as "God", in our eyes at that time, was just a great emperor from another land. It was probably like how you barbarians viewed the special envoys sent by the Emperor of Qin.

Why should we, the Fangfeng clan, obey human emperors like Yao, Shun and Dayu?

I can’t beat him!

If I could really suppress the many clans on the Chinese land, my father would become the emperor, and I would follow Xia Qi's example and inherit the throne myself.

In China, the Fangfeng clan is considered a large clan; in the entire Three Realms, the human race is just a larger "Fangfeng clan", and the emperor of the human race is like the clan leader.

The leader of the Fangfeng clan obeys the human emperor.

Since the human emperor cannot defeat the Emperor of Heaven, he should obey him.

One day, he felt that he was capable enough and was no longer afraid of the Emperor of Heaven, so he proclaimed himself the Lord of the World, the Emperor of Man.

When one day the human race is no longer strong enough and is afraid of the Emperor of Heaven, they will call themselves the Son of Heaven. "

Xiaoyu was speechless.

"I thought that during the era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, the emperor of the human race was very powerful, even stronger than the modern human emperor." She said after a while.

If Fang Fengjie was in human form, I would definitely give her a surprised look.

He couldn't show a surprised look, but there was obvious surprise in his tone, "What nonsense are you talking about? Of course modern humans are stronger!
Look at you, a nobody, a little girl from a barbarian country, a mere Qi cultivator, you can actually fight the most valiant ancient warrior of the Xia Yu Dynasty for several rounds without being defeated. "

Xiao Yu's mouth twitched, "I held back on every move. I really didn't want to hurt you. Can't you see that?"

Fang Feng Ji was excited and shouted, "How could I not see that you were holding back? But you are far inferior to me in realm, and you didn't even notice that I was holding back more."

"Okay, okay, when we get to your house, we'll find a chance to have a good discussion." Xiaoyu didn't want to argue with him.

But she also understood what he meant, "You mean, your strength, in the era of the Five Ancient Emperors, would be considered a top-level powerhouse?"

"I am now able to kill a thousand of my past selves. If I had the strength I have now, I would have kicked Dayu down with one kick, become the emperor myself, dredge the rivers, and dig through the mountains myself, and enjoy the unparalleled merit of flood control alone!" Fangfengji sighed.

Xiao Yu said, "Didn't you say that your father was as tall as a mountain and could help Dayu to open up mountain roads and dredge waterways?"

"Alas, even I have witch blood, think about it, isn't my father more like a witch?
Even though we humans and witches look similar, we are not the same race. The gap between us is even greater than that between humans and fish.

There is no such thing as ancient bloodline among humans, unless they intermarry with other races.

Look at the human race today. The more mediocre the bloodline, the purer and more noble the human bloodline is.

Those with strong bloodline talents are most likely mixed blood like me." Fang Fengji said.

Xiao Yu said: "You are biased. When the human race was first born, they were probably very mediocre and had no special talents or magical powers.

But we humans know how to learn!
After mastering the techniques of Qi refining and immortal martial arts, the stronger one becomes, the more talented the offspring born will be.

In today's world, if one cannot awaken the magical power of bloodline, it is a symbol of mediocrity, not a noble bloodline."

Fang Feng Ji was stunned for a moment, then agreed: "You are right, the further the human race's inheritance goes, the more sophisticated the techniques of cultivating immortals and practicing martial arts become, and the stronger the immortals become.

For example, the witch clan and the demon clan are completely opposite to us.

The older the bloodline, the thinner it becomes as it is passed down, and the weaker its power becomes.”

He shouted excitedly, "Their bloodline is getting weaker and weaker.

We, the human race, inherit the spirit and wisdom and become stronger and stronger!

The closer we get to the modern era, the more human emperors are born.

Think about it yourself, if you were in the time of Dayu, could you control the flood?
I see that your ability to control river water is almost comparable to mine now.

If you lived in that era, you would probably be able to become a "barbarian queen" and kick Xia Yu to the ground!"

"You old antique, stop talking nonsense!" Xiao Yu was angry and anxious, "I am just a small Qi Refiner. I respect Queen Wa so much that I dare not overstep my bounds."

Feng Ji muttered: "Modern people are stronger, less courageous, and live more cowardly lives."

——You foolish old fool, no matter how much the human race improves in strength, can it still be stronger and bigger than a saint?

Xiaoyu cursed him in her heart for being ignorant, but she didn't want to say more about the topic of saints.

Not only should you not say too much, but you should also change the subject and stay away from it.

"You fled to Tianhe, how did you become the grandfather of the witch?"

“Like my ancestors, I found a witch and gave birth to more than 30 children.

Countless tens of thousands of years have passed, and now everyone in Whale Ruins calls me 'Grandpa'," Fang Fengji said casually.

Xiao Yu's cheek muscles twitched slightly and she asked, "Why not 'Old Master'?"

"They are headed by women, just like Huaxu and Nuwa in our China. Besides, how can I, an outsider who was exiled to Tianhe, occupy the nest of someone else's tribe and turn the Wu clan's 'Jingxu clan' into the 'Tianhe Fangfeng clan'?" Fangfengji said.

——It turns out he is a son-in-law!

"Your wife passed away? How long can a wizard usually live?" Xiaoyu asked curiously.

"Ordinary wizards can live for thousands of years, and if they are long-lived, they can live for more than 10,000 years. If their bloodline is stronger, they can live even longer, tens of thousands of years, hundreds of thousands of years, there is no fixed number.

But they are different from us humans, they cannot live forever." Fang Fengji said.

Xiao Yu thought of the ancient novels he had read in his previous life, and asked, "Do witches have 'great witches' and 'witch ancestors'?"

"Of course there is a great witch. The Song you saw earlier is not the great witch? Song has lived for more than 300,000 years!
His mother lived longer.

The Wu Zu must have it too.

Even though they are from different races, they were born by their mothers and raised by their fathers, so how can they not have ancestors?" Fang Fengji said.

——Not this kind of witch ancestor!
Xiaoyu opened his mouth and finally decided to find a chance to go to Whale Ruins and take a look in person.

Afterwards, Xiaoyu asked Fangfengji in detail about the ancient human emperor.

The result disappointed her. Or rather, her "Five Emperors filter" was mostly shattered.

In the "Era of the Five Emperors of Human Race", clan leaders united to rule the world.

The so-called "abdication of the throne" based on the selection of virtuous people has nothing to do with the common people, but is only a selection among the leaders of major clans.

And they are selected from the strongest clans.

Dayu was from the Xiahou clan. Theoretically, before he became the emperor, his status should be equal to that of Fangfengji's father, but the Xiahou clan and Fangfeng clan were not of the same level.

Fang Fengji and his son were only fit to help Xia Yu. Xia Gun had clearly messed up things and was placed under "double supervision" by the Emperor of Heaven, but Xia Yu was still able to succeed his father as "Chief Engineer of Water Conservancy Project."

Can this be accomplished without a profound background, relying only on talent and moral character?
There was also Xia Qi, the son of Xia Yu, who directly ended the system of abdication. It can only be said that as early as the time of Xia Gun, the Xia Dynasty already had the strength to compete for the world.

The reason why the other human emperors abdicated obediently was at least because of Fang Fengji's performance, which Xiao Yu saw.

This guy said bluntly: If he had the strength he has now, he would have become an emperor.

Fang Fengji did not say that his character was so noble that he was "worthy of his position", he only talked about his strength.

He is strong enough to convince others with reason and kick down those who refuse to obey.

The Dune Tribe chooses its leader in a typical barbarian way.

However, although the "Five Emperors filter" was mostly broken, the "human filter" in Xiaoyu's heart was strengthened several times.

The abdication of the human emperor may involve private power struggles and interests.

But the human race as a whole is far more united and great than Xiaoyu imagined.

In the process of telling the story of "Yu the Great's flood control", Fangfengji may have intended to downplay the role of Yu the Great, the enemy who killed his father, but he did name him and tell countless heroic stories.

"Carve mountains and dig rivers" are just four simple words, but they were carved and dug out by human beings using bronze tools.

Without the help of gods or immortals, all the clans had to join together to contribute manpower and manpower.

For example, Fangfeng.

The entire Fangfengji tribe has only more than 4,000 giants.

A total of three thousand giants, both men and women, old and young, participated in chiseling the mountains and digging for stones.

Over more than 800 able-bodied men were worked to death over a period of more than ten years.

When Fang Fengji talked about this experience, there was only sadness in his tone, without a single complaint.

Because other clans are also fighting so hard.

For example, the Xia Dynasty.

The Xia Dynasty contributed the most grain, people and bronze ware, but also suffered the most deaths.

Among all the tribes, the Xiahou clan suffered the greatest losses.

The reason why Dayu passed by his home three times without entering was not because he was so upright, but because everyone was like that - these were the original words from the Fangfeng Sacrifice.

Listening to the storytelling at Fangfeng Festival, the water escape lasted for about a day and a half, and we arrived in a thick gray fog.

"This fog is abnormal, Brother Fangfeng, be careful—"

As soon as Xiaoyu issued a warning, Fang Fengjie canceled his water escape technique and turned into a giant over thirty feet tall again.

"Open the door!" he shouted into the depths of the fog.

The sound was like thunder, spreading for miles.

Xiaoyu vaguely heard the sound of chains rattling.

The thick fog did not dissipate, but it opened up a passage directly to the island in front of the giant.

It is a hundred miles long.

"I have a mirage beast." Fang Fengji said to Xiao Yu who was sitting on his forehead while running forward, "If Turtle Back Mountain is exposed directly to the outside, it will attract many water monsters and thieves who want to steal my peaches.

I don't want to hurt anyone either.

Just create fog to cover this area of ​​water, and they will get lost when they come in and swim out in a daze.

Unless I am hungry, I will let the mirage beast transform into various illusions to attract water monsters so that I can kill them.

Alas, it is only useful in the first few years.

I ate all the idiots, and the remaining water monsters regarded this place as a restricted area, hahahaha~~~"

He laughed heartily and proudly.

"Are there any Qi-refining masters like me in Tianhe?" Xiaoyu asked.

"Yes, but not many. No one would come to Tianhe on purpose. Tianhe is desolate, barren, and very dangerous."

Fang Fengji rolled his eyes upwards, trying to see her, but failed.

"Although you are a Qi Refiner, you are more powerful than many immortals. They are not as good as you and it is difficult for them to survive in Tianhe."

"Ang~~~~"

Halfway through the hundred-mile passage, bursts of sounds like the mooing of cows and the roar of dragons came from underwater.

This was accompanied by the "clattering" sound of the iron chains rubbing and being tightened.

Xiaoyu lowered his head and looked down, and saw a large black shadow swimming around under Fangfengji's feet.

"Is this a mirage? It's clearly a dragon." Xiaoyu said.

It looks somewhat different from a real dragon, with its head and torso being round lumps of flesh.

Looks a bit stupid.

But it does have dragon scales, dragon claws and a dragon tail.

"It's a mirage dragon. It was originally a giant clam. I raised it for tens of thousands of years before it gradually transformed into a dragon."

Xiaoyu was still looking at it curiously, but Fangfengji didn't even lower his head to glance at him, he just rushed forward.

"Since you raised Jackie Chan, why do you lock him up with chains?" Xiao Yu asked.

"If I don't tie it up, it will eat me. When I first met it, it wanted to confuse me and eat me.

I thought it was of some use, so instead of killing it, I dragged it back to Turtleback Mountain to guard the gate for me.

But it will attack its owner as soon as it gets the slightest chance.

I can only ask the gods from Tianhe Water Palace to forge a demon-binding rope for me.

I also pierced its neck with a three-meter-long iron nail. At first I only pierced its claws, but it was so cruel that it bit off its own claws and then attacked me secretly. "

In just a few words, he had passed through the mirage passage and arrived in front of an island.

"Is this Turtle Back Mountain? This is clearly an old turtle as big as a mountain range!" Xiao Yu said in surprise.
