Chapter 219 Succession
Of course, the root of everything is Xilin. The profession of the priesthood, as well as the various creeds and ideas of the Holy Gate, were first passed down by the people of Xilin.
But since the doctrine of the Holy Gate was preached, Cillin has declined. Moreover, in the past hundred years, Xilin has long been cut off from the outside world, and it is unknown whether there are still living people in Xilin.
After Xilin spread out of the Holy Gate, it actually spread in the four major regions of Nanshan, Beimo, Donghai, and Zhongzhou.
But in reality, only Nanshan and Zhongzhou finally accepted the Holy Gate.
Among them, the East China Sea is actually composed of archipelagos, which is not conducive to the dissemination of information. In addition, the East China Sea is actually uneven, and those who dare to sail in the East China Sea must have a strong enough ship or even a fleet, and their own indomitable will and courage are also extremely crucial.
Would such a person help spread the so-called Confession of the Holy Door? Absolutely impossible.
And if the voyagers of the East China Sea refuse to worship the Holy Gate, the inhabitants of the islands of the East China Sea will have no access to these things.
However, the Northern Desert is sparsely populated, and most of them are nomadic people, and they may have problems with even the most basic stable shelter and food sources. Even the most basic cultural science popularization cannot be popular in the Northern Desert. It is no exaggeration to say that even if the creed of the Holy Gate reaches the Northern Desert, most of the inhabitants of the Northern Desert will only miss these creeds because they are illiterate......
Therefore, in the end, only Zhongzhou and Nanshan accepted this holy gate.
In addition, Zhongzhou has been in war for many years, and there are countless large and small countries, and they often engage in some messy things such as merger and hostility, which is not conducive to the spread of culture, let alone the pious affairs of the Holy Gate.
Fortunately, the Holy Gate has developed well in the twelve major countries of Zhongzhou, and there are organizations like the Priesthood Guild to protect the Priesthood, so the Priesthood is proud to develop in Zhongzhou.
Because of the dense population and the tradition of worshipping gods and monsters since ancient times, its lofty mountains and mountains are rampant with strange beasts, and there are many strange and wonderful affairs, so it has a unique atmosphere to spread the various ideas of the Holy Gate.
Therefore, the development of the Holy Gate is actually the most prosperous in Nanshan.
Many of the people of the Holy Gate in Zhongzhou are proud to be able to visit Nanshan in person, or even settle in Nanshan.
Isn't it one of the most worldly and disgusting things in the world that the Holy Door can force children to pass on their ancestry, and even require them to have children frequently for the sake of blood relations?
And this most disgusting thing was done by the four great families of the Four Divine Mountains in Nanshan, the place where the Holy Gate worships the most.
Isn't this one of the most ridiculous jokes for both the Holy Gate and Nanshan?
And for Master Dingxiu, Master Wukou and others, how would they feel if they knew that there was such a group of people ruining the Holy Gate in the place they most longed for?
Thinking of this, Shen Lu was suddenly full of hostility towards these four divine mountains.
I have fallen to this point today, and I have implicated so many people, although the culprit is Xie Jinchai in front of him, but the big hand behind the scenes is the deformed way of doing things in the entire Nanshan.
Xie Jinchai didn't understand why Shen Lu was suddenly angry, but her own mood was not very good, so she didn't bother to ask Shen Lu.
The two wanted to chat calmly, but they didn't expect that talking about other topics would make both sides angry, which was indeed something that neither of them expected.
Shen Lu was in a very bad mood, so he didn't want to say anything else, so he went back to the point and said, "I don't want to cause any damage to this temple because of our actions. Say, what are you doing so much for?"
"Very simple things. I don't want to marry you according to my family's arrangement, and I don't want to have children for you. Is this clear enough?" Xie Jinchai's tone did not have the indifference just now, and there seemed to be a lot of temper in his words.
Shen Lu said coldly: "You think I'm thinking about it?"
Xie Jinchai asked rhetorically: "Why don't you want to, does this matter have any impact on you? If you agree, whether it is the Shen family where you belong or the Liu family of your uncle's family, they will regard you as the absolute master and let you inherit everything." And do you have to pay for it? Not at all. The so-called marriage is a very nonsense thing, do you know the agreement between the Liu family and the Xie family? As long as they can give birth to offspring for the two families, they don't even need to let us marry, and they can not make this matter public. But if I do, I'll have to fake my death, pretend I'm no longer here, and spend my whole life having children!"
Xie Jinchai said, his emotions becoming more and more uncontrollable.
She stared at Shen Lu viciously, as if Shen Lu was the heinous person. After staring for a long time......, he gritted his teeth and said, "What price will you pay for this? Until I got pregnant. Then you can leave and continue doing whatever you want. And when I give birth to a child, after a period of simple cultivation, you will come back and repeat the above things. Hehe, what the hell are you going to lose? You don't lose anything, you can even get everything. And me? I'm really losing everything!"
After hearing this, Shen Lu actually understood very well why her emotions collapsed. Before, Shen Lu remembered the so-called union for the sake of inheritance, and he had already imagined the above picture.
It's just that after these things come out of the mouth of the girl in question, it is even more creepy and difficult to accept.
However, Shen Lu did not completely agree with her point of view, so he said: "I understand your suffering, but please also understand me! I am not a person who has been abandoned from the beginning, let alone a person who pats his ass and doesn't care about everything! That's right, I want to have power, but all this must have been won by myself, not the so-called family bestowed! Do you know why I want to have power? The only reason is that I know that I have offended many people, and these people can't fight me, so they will attack my relatives and friends around me.
I can't help but be friends with them, but I want to keep them safe, so I have to be strong enough and powerful enough to not get into a situation like today. In order to deal with me, you just came to me directly, but you did it to my friends, this is the bottom line that I absolutely cannot tolerate!"
"Oh, do you think I'm going to believe you, or are you going to brag about how great you are? Passing on the bloodline is an incomparably easy thing for men and incomparably painful for women. It's not the first time this kind of thing has appeared in Sishen Mountain, and the last bloodline heir of the Liu Xie Second Family is the best example!"
Shen Lu was stunned for a moment, and said, "Who do you mean by the bloodline heir of the previous generation?"
"My father, of course, and your mother!"
"What?"
Shen Lu was taken aback, he never expected this.
Xie Jinchai continued: "If you think that I am just wishful thinking to do these things, then you are very wrong. I used to want to believe that there are real feelings in this world, and I wanted to forgive my father, but everything about me was ruined by the entire Xie family and my father!"
It turned out that about twenty years ago, the Xie family and the Liu family already showed signs of decay, and at that time they had the idea of combining with each other to give birth to more powerful bloodline offspring.
At that time, Xie Jinchai's father and Shen Lu's mother were both people who inherited a bloodline, and the two were of similar age, so at that time, the two families were trying their best to match the two, trying to make them marry, and then cultivate offspring together.
The two families did not taboo this matter at that time, but discussed it openly. Xie Jinchai's father had long coveted Shen Lu's mother, so he readily agreed.
And Shen Lu's mother has been a very independent person since she was a child and does not want to be at the mercy of the family. But she is also very smart and knows that direct disobedience to the family can have serious consequences.
Therefore, Shen Lu's mother pretended to agree to the marriage contract, but did not implement it immediately. She used the excuse of her young age, so she and her family asked to go to Zhongzhou to learn art and hone her skills, and wait until she returned from school to be the marriageable age.
And in the process of learning art in Zhongzhou, she met Shen Lu's father, so the two directly cut and then played, and cooked raw rice and cooked rice.
At this point, Xie Jinchai suddenly looked at Shen Lu and said, "You said you haven't been to Nanshan? It's just that you were just a baby at the time and don't remember it. Back then, your mother hugged you directly, and then took your father back to Suzaku Ridge. The Liu family was annoyed and angry, but they couldn't change the established facts, so although the two sides had a very unpleasant quarrel, in the end the Liu family accepted your father. There are two reasons for this: first, your mother is not the only lineage, you also have an uncle. Second, you Shen Lu has inherited the Vermilion Bird bloodline, and you are one of the few family males who have been inherited and have the opportunity to awaken. Although you are not surnamed Liu, the Liu family at that time very much wanted to keep you in Suzaku Ridge. ”
Shen Lu listened to this outsider talk about his life experience at this time, and suddenly felt a very strange feeling in his heart.
Thinking of his mother's appearance, which was already a little vague, Shen Lu suddenly smiled and said, "If my guess is correct, my mother must have escaped directly from Vermilion Bird Ridge with me and my father, right?"
"Yes. I heard that Suzaku Ridge also sent someone to rob you at that time, but I don't know what the final result was. I've heard these things mentioned by my family, but one of the people I admired the most since I was a child was your mother. Because although she is a woman, she dares to resist the stupid thing of inheriting the bloodline, and dares to let go of the pursuit of true love, and dares to act on things. ”
After a pause, Xie Jinchai's face sank completely, and he muttered: "On the other hand, my father is an out-and-out beast. ”
