Start with the Soul Forge - Chapter 634 You come to control the flood instead of Dayu

Mo Hao didn't say anything, just listened to the conversation between the two.

He undoubtedly had many questions about this world, and many things that happened seemed different from what he knew.

But Mo Hao knew that if he wanted to know the answer, the most direct and simple way was to wait for the two people in front of him to explain it to him.

After all, no matter whether Lao Dan or Emperor Shun wanted to entrust him to do something, in order to increase the success rate, they would always need to provide some information.

For Lao Dan, it was obviously impossible to use simple words to make Mo Hao understand the development of the situation.

Therefore, he needed to understand Mo Hao's knowledge of history before he could make targeted explanations.

“Historical memory?”

This was indeed a problem for Mo Hao. It took him a long time to recall the relevant memories in his mind and he began to answer Lao Dan's question. "The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors were Yao, Shun and Yu. Dayu was elected as the common ruler because of his water control and supply. The country of Emperor Yu was named [Xia], and then [Xia] was passed on to his son Qi. From then on, the dynasty succession changed from the abdication system to the hereditary system."

There is only one history textbook about ancient times, covering the Stone Age to the Qing Dynasty.

But for history classes, modern and contemporary content is the bulk, with at least three textbooks waiting to be studied.

"You should realize that there is something wrong with this world."

Mo Hao nodded. There must be something wrong with this world, and it was not an ordinary problem.

If this world is a world of ancient mythology, then Lao Dan should not appear here.

The story of Emperor Shun was even simpler. It should have been the period when Dayu was controlling floods. Emperor Shun should have been busy dealing with various troublesome matters and looking for a young man who could take over his position.

Instead of appearing out of nowhere, patting the murderer who killed his brother and praising him by saying "You did a good job, very good, I must reward you hugely", these words sound more like they came from another set.

"It seems that this young man doesn't know much." Emperor Shun looked at Lao Dan beside him and asked, "Do you want to tell me or should I tell you?"

As he spoke, Lao Dan waved the whisk in his hand, and the surrounding scenery suddenly changed, and the surroundings seemed to fall into nothingness.

"Chaos is the state before everything was born."

Emperor Shun explained while suppressing his urge to swing his axe and tear apart chaos. As the Emperor of Heaven who had created the world and enlightened the light, he disliked the chaotic environment very much, especially since chaos gave birth to the chaotic and dark gods who were expelled by him.

Lao Dan did not say anything, but waved his whisk again, causing the chaos to begin to change.

Big mistakes.

Before the heaven and earth took shape, the one thing that covered everything and filled the universe was actually one thing, which is now called chaos. Chaos existed before all things, and then Gaia, the mother of the earth, Tartarus, the god of the underworld, Eros, the god of love, Erebus, the god of darkness, and Nyx, the goddess of night, were born. The world began from then on.

The Earth Goddess was born after Chaos. She is the mother of all things and the essence of the earth. She gave birth to the sky god Uranus. Then she and Uranus gave birth to twelve Titans, representing the first things in the world. She also gave birth to five children with the sea god Pontus, representing different seas.

She is the mother of the gods.

"Compared to Greek mythology, what do you think is the difference between our mythology and theirs?"

Lao Dan's question made Mo Hao fall into deep thought. What is the difference between local mythology and Greek mythology?

"Yes……"

Mo Hao replied hesitantly, "The gods in Greek mythology are more personified?"

That is, the desires of gods are no different from those of humans. In fact, in many cases, it is not wrong to regard gods as people who possess divine powers.

Lao Dan nodded and looked at Mo Hao with approval. It was obvious that his student had grasped the key points.

“Personification, whether it’s Greek mythology, Norse mythology, or Indian mythology, all of them stayed at this stage for quite a while.”

As he was talking, Emperor Shun suddenly spoke up, "In fact, we also have the personification thing."

"Emperor Zhuanxu created a taboo by killing the four dragons. He ordered Chongli to separate heaven and earth and keep them away from each other. He ordered his eldest son to create the world and often asked humans for sacrifices. He also married my aunt Luo Ming, who liked the descendants of Chi You."

"Oh, and there is also [Elephant Emperor Before], who did not need an emperor's name, created the world with words, and even used his own personality to infect the vital energy, and transformed into the Three Pure Ones in one breath."

After the introduction, Emperor Shun gave a summary comment, "In short, the personified Emperor of Heaven is also quite abstract to some extent."

The way of speaking did not quite match the identity of Emperor Shun, but Mo Hao had no intention of correcting the other party's words at all. He had already understood some of Lao Dan and Emperor Shun's abilities.

If time is compared to a long river, then Lao Dan and Emperor Shun are blue whales. The long river of time cannot have any effect on them at all.

In short, the personified Emperor of Heaven is a group of PROMAX versions of Zeus.

This is how Mo Hao understood it.

"So guess what happened next?"

This answer received two approving glances, verifying Mo Hao's idea.

But doubts also arose.

Why did the Heavenly Emperors become depersonalized?

Who did it?

"No, my opinion is not to trust any Heavenly Emperor, including me." Emperor Shun directly refuted Lao Dan's point of view and said to Mo Hao, "Except for [Elephant Emperor], I don't recommend you to trust any Heavenly Emperor. Even I only came here because you killed the elephant and made me feel interesting."

After a pause, Emperor Shun continued, "What you have to do next is very simple. You are going to control the flooding of the river. You should have seen it, the flooding Yellow River." Mo Hao had naturally seen the Yellow River, or the Yellow River Goddess, and was even deeply impressed by her.

Among so many people I know, the Yellow River Goddess is one of the craziest ones. It’s hard to say that I don’t have a deep impression of her.

And flood control...

"I told you, don't count on the other Heavenly Emperors. Humans are not necessary to them." Emperor Shun emphasized this point again. "The God of Mountains and Rivers, also known as Dayu in your mouth, is currently enjoying himself in his own kingdom. Don't expect him to come out to help you control the flood."

So Dayu's task of controlling floods has now been assigned to me by Emperor Shun?

Mo Hao did not have much resistance to this kind of mission with a relatively clear objective, but he also knew that he had little chance of refusing.

Lao Dan and Emperor Yao patiently explained so much to him, it couldn't be that the teacher was addicted and wanted to give him a mythology lesson.

Even his brain was empty at this moment. In the myth, when Dayu managed the river, although Fangfeng was deliberately late, Huaihuoshuijun was also deliberately making trouble.

But at that time, Dayu had the people and supplies he needed, and even the flooded river would not suddenly jump up and fight with him.

The river water that I have to deal with now will really jump out and fight me in an unlimited fight.

At this time, Lao Dan suddenly said, "Let me tell you something, so that you can be mentally prepared. The Yellow River is now trying to swallow the Amazon River."

Swallowing the Amazon?

What kind of weird new way of arranging Chinese characters is this?

Mo Hao then jumped up and said, "No, where is the Amazon River in this place?!"

In a world based on mythology, or even a world of ancient mythology, the existence of the Amazon River is another matter.

The Yellow River can even swallow the Amazon River. Isn’t that not easy?

As if he saw through Mo Hao's doubts, Emperor Shun replied dimly, "Let her continue to swallow it. Who knows when the Yellow River will start swallowing the Milky Way."

So what you mean is that you have to treat the broken water yourself?At the same time, it is also a test for myself.

Mo Hao smelled a certain aura of [mission] from the words of Lao Dan and Emperor Shun. However, if he wanted to accept this mission, he had to prove that Mo Hao had the ability.

Knowing that he couldn't shirk this matter, Mo Hao sighed slightly, "What kind of help can I get?"

If there is no help at all, Mo Hao will have to start thinking about how to escape.

Emperor Shun was not vague and directly took out a wooden box from his body and handed it to Mo Hao.

When Mo Hao touched the wooden box, he instantly felt an extremely rich earth-based energy. It was a small box, but when he took it in his hand, it seemed to have the weight of an entire planet.

Ignoring Lao Dan's words, Emperor Shun pointed at the wooden box and said, "Xirang, it's up to you how you want to use it. It's the reward for killing the elephant."

After saying that, Emperor Shun walked towards the cave and prepared to leave. Having satisfied his curiosity, Emperor Shun naturally would not stay in the human world for too long.

As for the existence of Lao Dan, Mo Hao and his plan, he also did not intend to reveal them to other Heavenly Emperors.

One reason is that this matter was interesting enough to arouse Emperor Shun's curiosity.

As he was leaving, Emperor Shun stopped and said, "Complete your task of controlling the flood as soon as possible, or Emperor Yu will cause trouble for you."

No one said why. If the Emperor of Heaven wanted to cause trouble for someone, there was really no need to answer why.

Then, Emperor Shun ejected a light spot and merged into Mo Hao's brow, "If you can get the job done, let Yu roll down and you take his place."

After leaving these words, the common leader Shun disappeared without a trace.

"I'm going to fight with the Yellow River that swallowed up the Amazon River, and I'm also going to do Dayu's civil engineering?"

The only thing Mo Hao could feel at this moment was trouble.

It’s such a huge trouble.

Not only that, the system panel also popped up at this time, demonstrating its presence.

【Permission for "Shun" detected. 】

[Professional advancement tasks are now open.]

[Goal: Control the flooded river and kill the Yellow River Goddess.]

[Note: The act of controlling the flooding of the river is likely to cause dissatisfaction and hostility from "Yu".]

Except that the difficulty is so high that it is unacceptable.

But now the difficulty of the task is no longer within Mo Hao's consideration. At this moment, he lowered his head and pondered, thinking about how to gather a group of people to work with him on a super civil engineering project that would take a long time.

Because of the existence of the Yellow River Goddess, Mo Hao cannot be looking for a human being, at least not a human being without the power to resist.

Otherwise, the humans that they had finally found would probably be swept into the water by a wave of the Yellow River and become a meal for fish and shrimps.
