Chapter 480: God's Wrath
"This place has been through the Catastrophe and has not left any records, so the rest of the story is all speculation, and there is no way to determine whether it is true or not. β
Xue Ying nodded: "Say it." β
"Many years ago, northern Xinjiang used to be a land of good weather and rain, and in the center of it, that is, here, there used to be a country, and the royal family were priests who could communicate with the heavens, so it was called the 'Kingdom of Heaven'. The country is small in size, but it is located in the lifeline of transportation from the south to the north, and the business is prosperous and very rich. Generally speaking, because of its military weakness, such countries tend to become fat on the board and be divided up by the surrounding powers. In addition, the north of the country is dominated by nomadic people who pride in plunder and slaughter, and in order to protect themselves, the monarch of this country allied with the great powers in the south to seek military protection from the great powers in tribute. β
Later, the nomads from the north, who had plundered and slaughtered the north, came to attack the country. While organizing his people to resist desperately, the king turned to the great powers in the south for help, but the great powers did not dare to send troops because they were afraid of the iron cavalry of the nomads. The king had no choice but to risk disobeying the will of heaven and revealing the heavenly secret: the monarchs of the southern powers were all royal families with dragon energy, and only they could stop the fangs of the northern wolf. β
"Despite all the great efforts made, the small country could not wait for reinforcements - the monarch of the great southern country was too cowardly to send someone to secretly make a deal with the nomads in the north: as long as the nomads did not cross the border, they were willing to give up all the land and wealth of the kingdom of Tongtian. Not only that, but except for the southern powers, other countries and tribes have also chosen to ignore Tongtian's request for help, and no one is willing to stand up for them, let alone help. β
"The nomadic people of the north, in order to gain wealth and honor, carried out a massacre of dehumanization against the citizens of this small country, leaving no one behind, whether soldiers or civilians in their path. Eventually, the nomads besieged the few remaining in the capital, planning to wipe them out. β
At that time, only the old and weak, women and children were left in the capital of the Kingdom of Tongtian, and there was no ability to fight again, and the disaster of extermination was inevitable. The king ascended to the altar in the midst of the desperate weepings of his people, and made a curse at the cost of his own life and that of all the remaining people, that the cruel nomads would pay for their debts with a hundred times their flesh and blood, that the cowardly southern monarch would pay the price of his treachery, that those nations or tribes who had stood by them would experience the same despair as they did, and that the land of opulence would never be left to life, and that those who would encroach on it would live in misery for generations to come. β
After the spell was erected, all the people in the capital raised their swords and killed themselves, and the blood was sprinkled on the altar and merged into a river, causing a devastating storm that buried the entire capital and the nomads stationed outside the capital. β
Since then, the north of Xinjiang has indeed become a harsh and desolate place. The ghosts of the kingdom of heaven float above this land, distorting the course of this land and suppressing the natural vitality here. Ten years and ten years are actually the result of the struggle between the living soul and the dead soul. β
However, as time passed, more and more ghosts were born in this land, and the situation of equal strength was gradually broken, and one day the ghosts of the kingdom of Tongtian would accumulate enough energy to burst out from the ground to fulfill their curses. When the time comes, many people will die, and the killing caused by the curse will create more resentment, and under the vicious circle, the world may be destroyed. β
"The only way to survive is to find a way to vent the anger of the ghosts of the kingdom of Heaven and dissolve their curse. β
After the stove finished speaking, Xue Ying was still in a daze.
After a long time, she suddenly laughed "poof": "Are you talking nonsense?"
"Yes. β
Xue Ying looked at him in surprise. But the stove always looked calm: "I said that this story is all just speculation, and there is no evidence. You say this is nonsense, and you are not wrong. β
Xue Ying was suddenly glad that she had a good temper and was not angry with such irresponsible words. She clasped her hands around her chest, a little depressed: "What you said is different from what Master Mingli said. β
"Because I'm only telling stories from a mortal perspective. β
"Well, it's not a story from a mortal perspective, what is it like?"
The stove didn't give an immediate answer, just looked down at her.
Xue Ying asked, "That, it should be a secret that can only be known by people with dragon qi and sky peepers, right?"
"Being known by too many people will only lead to disaster. Moreover, even the stories from the perspective of mortals are just unfounded speculations, and the stories of gods are even more ethereal. Say it, and no one will believe it. β
Xue Ying raised her eyebrows: "Let's hear it." β
"The last king of the kingdom of Tongtian was the reincarnation of a god of heaven and went through calamities on earth. According to the plan, after his death, his primordial god will awaken, restore his divine power and return to the divine realm. However, there was a slight mistake in the plan: at the moment of death, his primordial spirit woke up in advance. It was only a brief moment, but it changed radically: the curse he had set was no longer just that of a mortal priest, but a divine curse. β
"There is no comparison between divine power and human power, and God can completely destroy a world with just one thought. The priest-king only wanted the murderers, accomplices, and bystanders to be buried together, but if it was the wrath of a god, it was the power to destroy the world. It can be said that although this god returned to his original world, he inadvertently left a huge hidden danger in this world. β
"We don't know why this spell hasn't exploded yet. Maybe it's because God's time doesn't pass at the same speed as we mortals, maybe it's because this god hasn't been aware of the divine power he left here, or maybe it's some force in this world that has inhibited the explosion of divine powerβin short, humanity has spent many, many years in ignorance. β
Speaking of this, the stove hooked his lips slightly with a little mockery: "Actually, since God's 'time' is different from the 'time' we understand, maybe God's moment is our eternity, and we can spend a long 'eternity' in ignorance, and we don't have to worry at all." β
Xue Ying muttered, "But the time bomb is there, maybe it will explode at some point." "And once this time bomb explodes, the power will be immeasurable, and no one can say how many people will die.
The stove asked, "So, are you more in favor of taking the initiative to remove this hidden danger?"
Xue Ying was stunned: "I don't know." And, what does it mean to 'take the initiative to remove this hidden danger'?"
"We are just mortals, and we can only do what mortals can do according to the rules of mortals. β
