Origin Chapter 261: Complicated situation
Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, Li Wanzi nodded slowly. She had indeed ignored this issue before. Although the Sifang Divine Beasts obey Fuxi and Nuwa, they are beasts themselves. It's not easy, and they can't be expected to be of much help to humanity.
On the way back, Dasha didn't fly in a straight line, but kept flying over the road. He stopped the warriors of the headquarters who came on horseback in the middle. Li Wanzi explained the situation to them and ordered everyone to turn around and return.
The two returned to Jiumu first. After landing, Wu Zhongyuan ordered Dasha to continue to open a path to the west, and then went to the morning meeting hall with Li Wanzi, waiting for everyone to return.
Li Wanzi has the intention to highlight the dignity of his identity, and deliberately set up two large chairs with wide backs from the north of the morning conference hall.
Wu Zhongyuan didn't bother to resign, so he took the seat and Li Wanzi sat next to him.
The two didn't speak for a long time afterwards. Li Wanzi's expression was more serious than Wu Zhongyuan's. Previously, Wu Zhongyuan just asked her if she knew which six ways Fuxi Nuwa was rectifying back then, and she didn't say anything else, so she It's not clear why Wu Zhongyuan asked this question, but now I finally understand that the remaining five paths will be enemies of humans, and the potential opponents are not only the demon king, and the situation is more severe than she had expected.
Discussing with others is easier than thinking alone to sort out the clues and reveal the truth. After a long silence, Wu Zhongyuan was the first to speak, "There are a few issues that we need to figure out as soon as possible."
Li Wanzi tilted her head to look at Wu Zhongyuan.
Wu Zhongyuan said, "Although Fuxi and Nuwa rectified the six realms, they did not completely eliminate them, nor did they permanently seal them. Why did the empress do this? Is it because of their lack of ability or other reasons."
"What do you think?" Li Wanzi asked in a deep voice.
Wu Zhongyuan shook his head, "It's hard to say, it may be that they don't have enough ability to permanently seal the other five paths, or it may be that they deliberately left a ray of life for the other five paths."
"Why did the Empress of the Emperor leave a ray of life for Wudao?" Li Wanzi asked.
Li Wanzi's question was not purely a question, but to help Wu Zhongyuan sort out his thoughts and consider it.
Wu Zhongyuan shook his head again, "I don't know, but I feel that since they can seal all the other five paths, they should have the ability to kill them or seal them permanently. And they also know very well that once the lifespan of the Sifang Divine Beast ends, The seal that imprisoned the Five Paths will disappear, and then the Five Paths will attack humans. Since they have foreseen this point, why did they not help us eliminate the troubles forever, but left the troubles to us?"
"What's the point of your deliberation?" Li Wanzi asked.
"Can you indirectly infer what situation we need to deal with in the future?" Wu Zhongyuan said.
When Wu Zhongyuan finished speaking, Li Wanzi frowned slightly. She didn't understand for a while that there was an inevitable causal relationship between the two.
Wu Zhongyuan said again, "Fuxi and Nuwa know that after the beasts get old, the other five realms will attack humans, but they have not helped us eliminate future troubles, which shows that in their opinion, even if disasters happen, we are still capable of protecting ourselves. , so as not to be killed by the Five Paths."
Li Wanzi frowned and shook his head, "They overestimated our ability. If there is only one, we may still have the strength to fight. If all five attack at the same time, we have no power to resist."
"It's not that they overestimated our ability, but that we failed their expectations," Wu Zhongyuan shook his head slowly, "Maybe in their opinion, they will give us thousands of years to recuperate, and even if a war happens, we have Enough ability to resist, it is a pity that we have not developed and grown in the thousands of years after the flood."
After nodding, Li Wanzi asked in a deep voice, "Do you think they didn't help us to eliminate future troubles back then, was it because they were unable to do it or did it deliberately?"
"It should be the latter." Wu Zhongyuan said sternly.
"Why do you say that?" Li Wanzi asked eagerly.
"Fuxi Nuwa doesn't seem to be a real human." Wu Zhongyuan said that in all known archaeological discoveries, Fuxi Nuwa is the image of a human head and a snake body, which shows that in addition to human blood, there are also beasts 's pedigree.
"If that's the case, once the war happens, they won't give us any more help." Li Wanzi said.
"Yes," Wu Zhongyuan nodded, "don't say that they have already returned to nothingness, even if they are still alive, they will not continue to help us."
"Why did they help us back then?" asked Li Wanzi.
Wu Zhongyuan stood up and paced back and forth from the vicinity. After a while, he thought, "Who is the weakest among the six realms?"
"Nature is human." Li Wanzi said.
"Yes, this may be the reason why they helped us," Wu Zhongyuan said. "Gods, ghosts and demons have supernatural powers, and beasts also have advantages in physical strength. Compared with them, humans are the weakest and weakest, so Fuxi Nv Wa sealed the Five Paths, passed on spells and martial arts to us, and gave us thousands of years of growth, so that we could have the strength to compete with the other Five Paths."
"It makes sense," Li Wanzi nodded, "but you may have overlooked one point. Even if we have been developing and growing for thousands of years, we can't resist the joint attack of the Five Paths."
"I didn't ignore it, this is the second question," Wu Zhongyuan returned to the seat and sat down, "You are right, if the five paths join forces, even if we have been growing for thousands of years, it is impossible Their opponents, do you think Fuxi Nuwa knows this?"
"It must be known." Li Wanzi guessed.
"I also feel that they know," Wu Zhongyuan said. "Since they know this, why don't they pass on more powerful spells and martial arts to us that are enough to defend against the combined attack of the Five Paths?"
Li Wanzi did not answer.
Wu Zhongyuan expected that Li Wanzi would not answer. Although Li Wanzi is calm and brave, her IQ is not very high, at least not as smart as Wu Di.
Wu Zhongyuan asked himself and answered, "That's because in their opinion, it is unlikely that the Five Paths will share the same enemy and join forces to fight against us."
"You mean they are not allies?" asked Li Wanzi.
Wu Zhongyuan nodded solemnly, "Yes, the six paths are independent, and the other five paths are likely to be hostile to each other."
Li Wanzi vaguely saw hope, "If this is the case, things may turn around."
"Not necessarily," Wu Zhongyuan waved his hands again and again, "this is the third problem. They may be hostile to each other, but they hate us even more."
"Because of us, they have been sealed for thousands of years." Li Wanzi said.
"Yes," Wu Zhongyuan said, "there are two possibilities at present, the first is that the place where they were sealed was originally their homeland, and their old nest is there, but they can pass through the kind we saw before. When the halo came to our world, Fuxi and Nuwa just confined them to their old lair and prevented them from running around. Another possibility is that the six paths originally lived together, and Fuxi and Nuwa sealed them in other worlds. . . . It's unclear which is the case, but in either case, they have reasons to hate us."
"Which one do you think is more likely?" asked Li Wanzi.
Wu Zhongyuan thought for a while, and said in a deep voice, "The second possibility is great, you must know that gods, ghosts and demons are all evolved from humans and beasts, even if they are sealed where they live after they become gods, ghosts and demons. where they lived in our world before they became gods and demons."
"It makes sense." Li Wanzi nodded.
At this time, there were already many warriors standing in the square outside the morning meeting hall, but when they saw the two of them talking seriously from the morning meeting hall, they stood far away and did not dare to come in to disturb them.
After sorting out his thoughts, Wu Zhongyuan said again, "If they live in a better environment than ours, please they will not come. The reason why they try to enter our world is because in their eyes we live in The place where they live is better than the place where they live. If the four mythical beasts grow old, the gods, ghosts and monsters will flood into the world we live in. In our opinion, they are invasions by foreign enemies, but in their opinion, they may be the kings Come back."
Li Wanzi nodded slowly. With Wu Zhongyuan's scrutiny, several questions that troubled her were all reasonably explained. Although the situation was complicated, the order was clear.
"I don't know how long the Sifang Divine Beast can last." Li Wanzi was worried.
Wu Zhongyuan said, "The Suzaku should have known that we were watching the battle close by, but after the war it didn't have any rumors to warn you and me, which means that it can hold on for the time being. It told me before that it would be far away from them. There are more than two years, and this time limit should not be advanced."
"That's good, there is still time for us to prepare for the war." Li Wanzi said.
"Don't be too optimistic." Wu Zhongyuan said, "Don't forget that the beasts in the four directions guard only gods, ghosts and demons, and there are beasts in the six realms. They are sealed in our world, and they have already begun before this. Frequently infesting the cities of various ethnic groups, while preparing for war, it is inevitable to fight against them.”
At this time, the warriors who had rushed to Nanguan had already returned, and they were almost all there. Although there were many people, the morning meeting hall was very large. Li Wanzi had already sent people to set up additional seats earlier.
Wu Zhongyuan pointed to the people waiting outside, "Let's have a meeting first."
"It's better not to tell them what you and I have discussed." Li Wanzi said.
Wu Zhongyuan nodded his head. It is enough for the leader to know about some things, but for subordinates to know it is of no use and only increases the pressure.
Li Wanzi waved to everyone outside the door, signaling them to enter.
Wu Zhongyuan whispered to Li Wanzi, "Inform the three clans about what happened last night and your inferences, so that they can take precautions and prepare early."
Li Wanzi nodded.
Wu Zhongyuan said again, "You send a letter from the bird clan, the letter of the bear clan is forwarded by Wu Qin, and the letter of the cattle clan is forwarded by Jiang Dahua."
Li Wanzi nodded again.
Wu Zhongyuan took a deep breath, not only Li Wanzi, but also he had not been able to make accurate judgments on the situation before. The six paths fought each other and hated each other. Bloody battles are inevitable, and it is very likely that they will need to cooperate horizontally and vertically, and temporarily form an alliance with a certain road when necessary.
A moment later, the warriors arrived, and they greeted Wu Zhongyuan and sat down.
Wu Zhongyuan adjusts his mood and presides over the morning meeting. Time is not waiting for me, so we must hurry up and arrange preparations...
