"It turns out that this river is called the forgetting river." Jiang Cen nodded in secret. There must have been an extremely tragic story along the river. Countless corpses were buried here. If it had not been for Jiang Cen and Jiang Wu's passing by by by chance, they would have been forgotten.
As for the four lines behind the stone tablet, it seems that they are mourning the dead, but they have no specific meaning. I don't know who carved them.
Jiang Cen turns over the earth and stones, buries the corpse and the stone tablet in the ground, so-called bury the earth for peace. These dead people have been dead for thousands of years, and he doesn't want to disturb them.
Jiang Cen and Jiang dance worship the dead, then fly away from forgetting Sichuan and continue to walk through the mountains.
Surrounded by towering mountains, endless, it's easy to get lost. Fortunately, with the guidance of the old soul and the power of the sun, moon, stars, heaven and earth, Jiang Cen and his wife would not be wronged.
After seven days of flying over 100000 mountains, they finally entered the western regions.
As soon as he entered the western regions, Jiang Cen immediately performed wine magic skills. Jiang Wu also "pinched his nose" to absorb some wine magic breath. In this way, both of them became demonic practitioners.
Compared with China, the western regions are just another world. The language, customs and costumes are totally different. Jiang Cen and Jiang dance sneak into a mortal village to dress up and learn the local language.
Fortunately, it's not very difficult for those who cultivate immortals to learn a new language. In just half a month, they have mastered the Dazhou language commonly used in the western regions, and they have also changed into the black robes and headscarves commonly used in the western regions.
At this time, they dare to contact the western regions.
They came to the nearest city of Moxiu. As soon as they entered the market, they went straight to the book shop.
Looking up ancient books is the quickest way to get familiar with the background of the world of cultivating immortals in the western regions. Moreover, maybe there are records about the twelve storey Pagoda in the ancient books.
After reading several classics, they were surprised to find that there were not only great differences in the secular world between the western regions and China, but also great differences in the rules of the world of cultivating immortals!
In the secular world of the western regions, there is a caste system. As soon as a person is born, there is a distinction between high and low. Untouchables are not allowed to engage in "noble" occupations, while nobles can own slaves and marry three wives and four concubines; the royal family with the highest status can even marry 72 wives.
There are similar rules in the world of cultivating immortals in the western regions. According to their origins, there are four kinds of cultivators in the western regions.
The first is the monk of heaven. Most of the Tianxuan monks were the demons of Yuandan period of the three major demons and their descendants. Only a few of the elite children of the major forces of the three major demons stood out from all the immortals in ningdan period and were granted the status of Tianxuan monks by the three major demons.
Once you get this identity, you will be superior in the world of cultivating immortals. Even if you meet a senior with ordinary qualifications, you can be equal.
The second one is the monks selected by the sect, which refers to the monks and their descendants who are lucky enough to enter the list of the three major demons in the western regions. If you want to enter the list of the three major demons, your accomplishments are all at or above the golden elixir stage. Their descendants, of course, are also prominent.
The third kind is the side selected friars, which refers to the core children of other small and medium schools attached to the three major demons, as well as the children of more than 100 immortal families in the western regions. These people also have a certain position in the world of cultivating immortals.
The fourth kind is called the defeated friars. They are those who have no background at all. Most of them come from unknown families or from scattered cultivation.
The defeated friars can't directly join the major sects. They can only take refuge in some small and medium sects or immortal families. If they can be absorbed by the sects or immortal families, they will be granted the identity authentication similar to "nobility" and upgrade their status to the next selected friars, then they can have the opportunity to join the major sects such as the three magic sects.
There are different restrictions for the practitioners of different identities. The defeated friar with the lowest status can only practice some unorthodox ways, and is not allowed to practice the most brilliant magic skills. Once he discovers that he practices secretly, he will be guilty of death.
Moreover, alchemists, weapon refiners, array mages, talismans and other full-time practitioners of immortality, at least, can only take up the position if they are selected by others, while those who are not selected can only take up the position as apprentices.
In theory, once a man of any status can reach the yuan Dan period, he will reach the highest level of the world of cultivating immortals, and his status will naturally be the highest selected monk. However, because the low status practitioners are subject to various restrictions, it is impossible for them to reach a high level of cultivation, and the practitioners with great potential and excellent qualifications will also be promoted level by level.
Since ancient times, most of the monks in the western regions who have been able to cultivate to the Dan period of the Yuan Dynasty have been chosen by heaven. There are also some monks who have been chosen by other sects. As for those who have been chosen by other sects and who have not been chosen by others, they have never been chosen by heaven!
Jiang Cen saw here and frowned. Now he has no identity authentication. He can only start from the lowest ranking "defeated monk".
"Look at this section!" Jiang Wu suddenly handed a book to Jiang Cen.
Jiang Cen saw that this paragraph was about "the battle of forgetting Sichuan".
"It's the story that happened on the Bank of the forgetting river?" Jiang Cen moved in his heart. Judging from his name, what he wrote might be the story of the bones beside the river.
According to the records of ancient books, about a thousand years ago, there was a great war between the immortals on the banks of the river.At that time, during the war between the Chinese and the Turks, the forces of the demons retreated and finally crossed the 100000 mountains and retreated to the western regions.
However, some of the immortals in the western regions could not resist such a powerful demon army, or they were engulfed or annihilated.
During this period, a lot of great wars took place, and the battle of forgetting Sichuan was one of the most tragic scenes.
Lin Ye, the first person in the world of cultivating immortals in the western regions in those years, was killed by several yuan Dan period demons of the middle land demons in this battle because his cave was on the Bank of the river of the river of the river of the river of the river of the river of the river of the river of the river of the river of the river of the river of the river of the river of the river of the river of the river of the river of the river of the river of the river of the river of!
More than ten thousand demon practitioners under the command of the demon ancestor of forgetting Sichuan were also in the war, and there were almost no survivors.
This ancient book was written by later generations. Naturally, it was written by the demon ancestor of forgetchuan who was extremely cruel and even had a lot of abnormal hobbies. In the name of acting on behalf of heaven, the middle land demon sect came all the way to attack and "save" the world of cultivating immortals in the western regions.
All the historical books and classics were written by the winners. As for the truth of that year, no one knew. After reading these things, Jiang Cen just laughed.
In his view, there will never be justice in the war of invading other people's territory!
After reading the ancient books for several days, Jiang Cen knew a lot about the world of cultivating immortals in the western regions, and had some ideas about the whereabouts of the twelve storey pagoda.
The twelve storey pagoda is indeed a common one among the demons in the western regions. It's just because it's so common that many large gates have twelve storey pagodas, and there is often more than one. The one Jiang CEN is looking for is hidden in the gate.
As long as you show him the pagoda, he can tell if it's the one he's looking for.
It seems that the simplest way is to mingle with the major demons and explore the pagoda; however, as a "defeated monk", there is no way to directly join the big gate.
