C928 Quimora's past and Present Life
Because it had not been opened for who knew how many years, the inside of the low palace was very damp. Coupled with the fact that the light was very dim, it appeared to be very gloomy.
Just as Moxie Zhengdong had once said, the palace was empty, with only a black statue standing in the center.
Black stallion, black knight, black long sword.
Quinone Mora.
The name of this statue was Quinone Mora. In the ancient language of the prairie, these three words signified the meaning of 'Golden Tent Khan Country'.
This statue of Quinone Mora was one and a half times the size of a real person. Just because there was a steed and a knight holding a sword, it was exceptionally tall, imposing and sharp, as if in the next moment, the stone statue would come to life, the war horse would gallop, and the knight would hold the long sword high and charge forward shouting.
Gao Fei walked around the statue.
In his memory, he should have seen Quinone Mora's statue a few times. However, he could only recall the sculpture behind the stone door in the ice cave.
"Perhaps, I already belonged to the dream world. It was just that Moxie Zhengdong lied to me. Or perhaps, the dream was too long, so long that I didn't even want to come back."
Gao Fei raised his hand and caressed the front hooves of the horses.
The black stone tentacles were ice-cold, without a hint of life.
No matter how lifelike the sculpture was, it was still a sculpture in the end. It was just like how the natives of the prairie were in the past. Weren't they still in the bitter cold lands, controlled by the western countries?
On the other hand, the Inner Mongolia cultivators who were ridiculed by the outsiders for not having any backbone were now living in peace and working happily. It could also be said that it was a kind of ridicule.
This statue was carved from the most common black stone in Lou Lan's world. Other than its lifelike appearance, nothing could be seen from the sculpture. Not even how long had the sculpture been formed, since there was not a single word on it nor was there any date.
Gao Fei was interested in sculpture because he had already figured out that the time of the plainsman dominating the world was more than seven hundred years ago. However, according to Moxie Zhengdong, this sculpture was the same as the one carved on the stone door of the underground cave, the same as Lou Lan's founding time.
Lou Lan had existed for less than two thousand years, so why was there a statue of the plainsman one thousand years later?
Could it be that the ancestors of the Moxie Family, even if they were more than a thousand years old, would some people of the Great Prairie be able to rise to prominence?
Even so, why leave these behind?
What did this have to do with Lou Lan?
This statue must have a lot of secrets, but Gao Fei didn't know.
As he was walking around the sculpture, Moxie Zhengdong walked in. "Are you interested in Quinone Mora?"
At this time, Moxie Zhengdong's tone had returned to normal, as if she had never been unhappy about Shui'er's incident.
Gao Fei didn't look at her and just said: "Yes, I am very interested. Unfortunately, you don't know what this statue means either."
Moxie Zhengdong took a step toward the door. "I don't know, but someone does."
"Who?"
Before Gao Fei could finish his sentence, someone said from the outside: "It's me."
The third person to enter the palace was the High Priest, Tuoba Qianjun.
Gao Fei looked at Tuoba Qianjun and did not say anything.
Tuoba Qianjun walked in front of the statue, looked at the long sword held high by the knight, and said in a deep voice: "There is this statue in the King of Loulan Palace, it is because of the ancestor of the statue, and it has a close relationship with the ancestor of King of Loulan."
A long, long time ago, before Lou Lan, there was a nomad who came here.
According to the historical records that Lou Lan had inherited, this race was born in the Eastern Hu. They did not believe in Buddhism, Shamanism or Taoism.
What they believed in was Quinone Mora, a type of evil external force that was no longer within the Samsara Six Paths, collectively known as Demonic Tao.
At that time, Quinone Mora didn't mean 'Golden Horned Demon', but a human demon. A demon that grew strong from evil, living in the world by invading and robbing others for their work.
Facts have proven that whatever faith you have, there will be what kind of people you will have.
Those who believed in Buddhism were benevolent, while those who believed in Taoism aimed to help the strong and help the weak. Those who believed in Longevity and Hu Da were well-known for their bravery.
Since this nomadic people believed in Quinone Mora, they naturally carried a part of the demonic nature — they had almost killed all the people living in the area, forcibly seized their wealth and women, and created a small country.
This country, according to Lou Lan's history books, was known as the 'Sumu Huck'.
Perhaps it was not the name, perhaps it was the result of the subsequent fighting, but the real name was forgotten, and people used the language of the time to call them Sumukhak.
In the ancient and modern languages of the prairie, Sumu Hak was the devil's meaning.
Therefore, the people of the world called this newly built country the Devil Kingdom.
After the establishment of the Devil Kingdom, it had brought about extremely heavy losses to the surrounding people. Everyone hoped that one day, they would be annihilated … Finally, a person called 'Anggui' appeared, he was known as the Anggui King.
After paying a heavy price, Anggui King led the people to finally defeat the Demon Kingdom and create a new nation: Lou Lan.
Lou Lan, in that era, meant 'cities of all cities, indestructible'. He indicated that he would not be attacked again by the Devils.
After the demise of the Demon Kingdom, many clan members fled, and Anggui sent people to chase after them.
However, the devil race's ability to escape was also very powerful. The people who escaped headed west and entered the endless Qilian Mountain, never to be found again. They only grabbed the Infernal King's daughter, a very beautiful girl.
According to the intentions of the ministers at that time, they wanted to execute this girl, but Anggui King was surprised by her beauty and decided to marry her as his wife.
At that time, a official who had contributed a lot to the battle had firmly refused to allow the Anggui King to marry a devil wife.
This official sighed at the sky before he died, saying, "If the Anggui King really marries this woman, then the child he gives birth to will have a demonic nature, and would harm the citizens of the nation. As for the devils who flee, they will evolve into a powerful race, and after a thousand years, they will still believe in Quinone Mora.
Before his head was chopped off, this official had told people that if the great Anggui King wanted to stop this tragedy from happening, he had to marry a Holy Maiden.
If that happened, the children of the Anggui King and the Holy Maiden would become Shura.
If he wanted to defend his country while the Devils were strong, he could only rely on this Shura.
Worried that his country would really be subverted by the children born out of the devil's wife, he followed the instructions of the minister and went into the Qilian Mountain. He then found the Holy Maiden and married her.
Later on, Anggui King and his two wives gave birth to two daughters.
However, according to what the Minister said before he died, Anggui King only recognized one wife to the outside world, and that was the Demon Princess who could change into any kind of beautiful woman.
Their two daughters were bestowed the title of "Princess Lingyu".
As for the Holy Maiden's wife, she remained in the depths of Qilian Mountain, and the daughter that she and the Duke of Anggui had given birth to was named Moxie Ningrong.
Later on, the Anggui King married a lot of wives, and had a lot of princes and princesses.
The children of the Anggui King and the Demon Princess were just like the rest of the sons of the Anggui King, smart, intelligent, and not one bit demonic. But he did not dare to forget the words of the Minister, so he sent Princess Lingyu and Moxie Ningrong to the Great Shaman on the Qilian Mountain side to learn art.
When the two children were about fifteen or sixteen years old, the war broke out. The powerful empire in the south, the Darkhan Dynasty, sent out a great general to attack Lou Lan.
People of Loulanmin was once again trapped in the abyss of suffering. Because of People of Loulan's stubborn resistance, Huo Quou was infuriated. She then killed all the members of King of Loulan's chamber.
After the news spread to the Qilian Mountain, Princess Lingyu immediately went down the mountain to take revenge. She used what she had learned to kill Huo Quou — the pain of losing her loved ones — and caused her to finally have a demonic personality.0
The Han people who had suffered heavy casualties carried their great general's corpse back to the Dahan Empire.
Things weren't over yet. Princess Lingyu brought her death soldiers and broke into the Dahan Empire, attempting to use the plague to destroy that country and rebuild her Lou Lan or Quinone Mora Empire.
After Princess Lingyu went down the mountain, Female Shaman instructed the Anggui King's other daughter, Moxie Ningrong, to go down the mountain and save People of Loulan, who was better than him.
Before Moxie Ningrong went down the mountain, Female Shaman had told her that Princess Lingyu's clansmen would harm the world many years later.
At that time, Moxie Ningrong had asked, "How many years will Princess Lingyu's clansmen appear in the future, and who are they?"
She did not say how many years it would be before they would appear. She only said that they would ride horses and carry long swords across the world to create a powerful empire.
But the empire was short-lived and would soon wither.
