Three hundred and eighty-six chapters the legend of the night devil (2)

This strange army did not join either side. They destroyed the armies of the two tribes at the same time. Those who came back alive from that battle said that the demons who appeared underground used powerful witchcraft and the tongue of fire swallowed everyone on the battlefield.

The news soon spread among nearby tribes. At first, many people did not believe the words of those survivors. Until a few months later, the legendary army continued to appear. Every time they appeared, a tribe was slaughtered. The survivors of each tribe repeatedly said a few words: mask, woman, girl, blood red, flame.

The human face gradually believed these legends. Since that strange army always appeared at night, many people called the girl wearing a mask "the devil in the night". The title of Night Demon came from this.

Soon, Ye Demon took her tribe to regain the land that originally belonged to them, but the other tribes that had been attacked by her were all turned into scorched earth.

The leader told his daughter that they attacked other tribes not for killing, but for seizing their land, people, cattle and sheep, and told his daughter not to take action next time they fight with other tribes, and to try to make them surrender instead of killing them.

Ye Mo's answer to this was extremely simple. She told the leader that the reason she fought was to kill people.

Ye Mo's answer made the leader notice a dangerous aura, but she still didn't care. After all, Ye Mo was her biological daughter, and she told Ye Mo to try to gather a few more tribes and expand her power.

At that time, the Night Demon was only twelve years old, and her nature was not fully exposed. In the end, she followed the leader's advice and tried to win over other tribes.

But her method of winning over was still cruel massacre. Her reputation made many tribes afraid, and these tribes rushed to join in, and her army was expanded as a result.

At that time, the Night Demon had briefly unified the tribes in the western part of Qizhou, but she was not satisfied with it. After calming for a while, the desire for killing in her heart began to get restless again, and she also extended her claws to the Queen Mother Kingdom of the West.

Historically, the Queen Mother Kingdom of the West was a small country near Qizhou. Like the tribe where the Night Demon is located, it also continued the tradition of the matriarchal society and governed the country with full authority, but this country has an army composed of strong men.

The confrontation between the Night Demon and the Queen Mother Kingdom of the West was not smooth. Not only was the civilization more developed than them, but the army more powerful than them. Even the priests in the country also had some outstanding witchcraft attainments.

For the small tribe where the Night Demon is located, the battle that lasted for several months was a protracted battle. The soldiers were killed and injured, and the Night Demon was almost defeated by the priests of the Queen Mother Kingdom of the West.

In desperation, the Night Demon was able to lead his troops back to his hometown, accumulate energy, and wait for the next opportunity to attack the Queen Mother Kingdom of the West.

The years of military wars made Ye Demon's tribe members complain about her. They gradually discovered that the reason why Ye Demon took them back to the ground was not to save them, but to satisfy her desire for blood.

The leader of the tribe finally realized that the mask Ye Mo and the mask she brought on her face every day might not be the gospel given to her by the gods. The mask and her daughter might be the incarnation of the demon. She tried to dismiss Ye Mo's military power, but Ye Mo's loyal followers told Ye Mo's plan in advance.

Ye Mo seemed to feel that she had been betrayed, and she became even more crazy. She cut off her mother's legs, locked her in a cellar, and burned those who opposed her to her to death.

This is exactly in line with the content of the second mural on the stone gate.

After becoming a prisoner and being imprisoned, she used words learned from other tribes to describe what Ye Demon did. At that time, she thought of someone who might be able to save her tribe.

Shortly after the leader was imprisoned, Ye Mo became crazy during a sacrifice and slaughtered his tribe in an extremely cruel way. Except for the five closest followers and the detained leader, no one was spared.

Later, people from other tribes rescued the leader. She saw the decayed corpses of the tribesmen. Most of them were torn apart by some huge force. Their limbs and internal organs were sprinkled everywhere, attracting a large number of scavengers and wild wolves.

These contents can also correspond to the third mural.

Later, with the help of several other tribes, the leader arrived in Qizhou and found someone who could save them.

Mindu said that the book said that the man was the priest of Qizhou and a saint from the shore of the Wei River.

At this time, Liang Houzai interrupted the sensitivity: "The saint from the shore of the Wei River, can you be talking about Jiang Ziya?"

Mindu blinked and looked at Liang Houzai in surprise: "How did you know? I haven't said that yet."

Liang Houzai said: "Jiang Taigong's fishing wish is to take the bait. What I mean is that Jiang Ziya was fishing without bait on the coast of the Wei River and encountered King Wen of Zhou. And you mentioned Qi Zhou many times. Qi Zhou three thousand years ago was a small country ruled by Ji Chang and Ji Fa. Then you mentioned the saint on the coast of the Wei River, and that was only Jiang Taigong. But one thing I must correct is that Jiang Taigong is not the priest of Qi Zhou. He should be the teacher of King Zhou and appointed as the "Taishi".

Mindu looked dazed: "Oh, no wonder the book says that Grand Master Jiang is from Grand Master Jiang. It turns out that this is how Grand Master comes from. I have seen it in another book before. Grand Master is indeed an official position..."

I quickly interrupted the two of them: "If you have the chance to talk about Jiang Taigong, let's talk about what happened to Ye Demon later."

Mindu then returned to the main topic. He said that after the tribe leader found Jiang Taigong, he told Jiang Taigong about Ye Demon's affairs. Although Jiang Taigong felt that something was wrong, he was busy preparing for the Zhou Kingdom and did not have much energy to deal with Ye Demon's affairs.

But in order to chase the escaped leader, Ye Mo actually came to Qizhou with a few followers and asked Jiang Taigong for someone.

After all, Jiang Taigong was a man more than 3,000 years ago. Although the legend about him has been passed down to this day, no one knows what kind of person he was back then. Mindu said that the book he read mentioned Jiang Taigong's character, saying that Jiang Taigong has great wisdom, he acts decisively, but has a very strong temper, and is the kind of person who decides to kill the enemy.

Originally, Jiang Taigong planned to wait until King Zhou got the world before dealing with Ye Demon's affairs, but he didn't expect Ye Demon to come to his door by himself.

The book does not record what happened between Ye Mo and Jiang Taigong, but it is said that Ye Mo was defeated very miserably that time, and even the followers she brought to Qi Zhou were almost dead. However, Jiang Taigong did not take Ye Mo's life, and even detained her. Instead, she let her go and warned her to abide by Qi Zhou's etiquette. If she dared to make trouble again, she would face the 100,000-strong army of Qi Zhou.

The first time Ye Mo was afraid in her life, she promised not to make trouble again and left Qi Zhou in shame.

Sensitivity speculates that Jiang Taigong was able to spare Ye Demon this time, maybe because Ye Demon's mother pleaded for her.

This failure did not restrain Ye Demon. She began to harm the surrounding tribes more violently. Many people found that the more people the Ye Demon killed, the stronger her magic power became. During those years, the mask was always on Ye Demon's face. She seemed to never eat or take off her mask, so many people forgot what she was like. At that time, Qi Zhou had already started a war with Shang Zhou, and Jiang Taigong had no time to pay attention to Ye Demon's affairs.

Until the world was settled, Jiang Taigong quelled the rebellion in Qi and successfully became the King of Qi. At this time, the leader of the tribe traveled thousands of miles to Zhoudu and stated dozens of crimes of Ye Demon in front of the Zhou emperor Ji Fa. The Zhou emperor felt that something was wrong and immediately recalled Jiang Taigong who was far away in Qi.

Jiang Taigong, who was over 100 years old, rushed back to his hometown in Qizhou and sent soldiers to the Brown Deer Mountain area to summon the Night Demon.

At this time, the night demon had become cruel. Jiang Taigong sent people to summon him twice, and both envoys were brutally killed by her. She also wanted to be chopped up by the messenger she killed and wrapped in sheepskin and gave them back to Jiang Taigong.

No one knew what kind of expression Jiang Taigong looked like when he saw these minced meat. The book just said that he first asked someone to take a huge stone from the snow mountain and cut the surface of the stone flat. He also asked Ye Demon's mother to draw three murals on the stone surface overnight, and told Ye Demon's mother that in three days, she would need to draw the fourth mural on the stone surface.

When Sensitivity said this, Liang Houzai and I exchanged a wink.

In fact, everyone in the house should have thought that the flat stone was later transformed into a stone gate in the tomb of Ksitigarbha.

After everything was ready, Jiang Taigong asked the nine strong men to lift the stone slab, and then took Ye Demon's mother to the Brown Deer Mountain.

When Mindu said this, Liang Houzai interrupted him: "Isn't Brown Deer Mountain the place where the Night Demon's tribe lived in seclusion back then?"

Mindu nodded and said yes, and said that in order to save time, he omitted some details in the book. After slaughtering all his tribesmen, Ye Demon returned to Brown Deer Mountain. However, he did not return to the ground, but built a large-scale construction to build an altar on Brown Deer Mountain, where he refined his confidants into five stone men.

Shi Man? When Mindu mentioned Shi Man, I remembered the armored corpse in Dizang's tomb with hard skin like a stone. However, I didn't ask a question immediately, just waiting for Mindu to continue talking.

Mindu said that when Jiang Taigong came to Brown Deer Mountain, Ye Mo took his army, Shiren, and fought with Jiang Taigong in a head-on battle, but was defeated by Jiang Taigong again.

When Jiang Taigong was about to arrest her and ask for guilt, suddenly dark clouds surged in the sky, and a thunder fell from the sky, just as it fell on Ye Demon's mask. Everyone was immediately ignited on Ye Demon's body, and black smoke poured out from her head.

Jiang Taigong seemed to have expected this to happen, and immediately asked Ye Mo's mother to draw this scene, which was the origin of the fourth mural.

Ye Mo's body was quickly burned to ashes by the fire, but the mask she wore on her face was not damaged at all. The black gas radiated from her head condensed into a black snake in the sky, but the mask was still worn on the snake's face.

The snake attacked Jiang Taigong, but was still subdued by Jiang Taigong. Later, Jiang Taigong buried half of the snake's body underground, and asked someone to press the huge rock with four murals on the snake, leaving nine strong men to guard day and night. It was not until forty-nine days later that it completely suppressed the night demon.

However, when Jiang Taigong suppressed Ye Demon, he said that the Night Demon was originally transformed by a pure yin energy in the world. Even if he suppressed it now, one day it would still come out to do evil.
