"Thank you for your help, but you can't stay here any longer. They are the people of the royal priests, and if you provoke them, I'm afraid nothing good will come of it!" Seeing the group of strong men in sleeves rolling out of the door, Pallas hurriedly walked up to Lin Bai, with a worried look on his face, and said in a deep voice.

Sophia pouted when she heard this, and said disdainfully: "Those cats and dogs will not be looked at by Lin Bai, we will fight one when they come, and we will fight a pair when they come to two, whoever bullies Preti will not get along with me, and if you can't get along with me, you will not get along with Lin Bai!" Uncle, don't worry, we won't let Preti be that broken goddess!"

"What exactly does a living goddess mean? Why do these people have to be in the past? And what is the secret that makes you husband and wife scared like this?" Listening to Sophia's words, Lin Bai couldn't help but smile bitterly, this little girl is now becoming more and more lawless by the eldest son, if it goes on like this, how can she still get it, she will inevitably become a demon king in the future.

Before Pallas could speak, Pratti had already grabbed her mother's hand tightly, tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, and she said pitifully: "Mom, I don't want to be that living goddess, I just want to be by your side and Dad!"

"We won't let you go, you can rest assured......" Seeing his daughter's pitiful expression, Pallas sighed lightly, and then said with a sad face: "The matter of the living goddess is a long story......

The Nepalese "Living Goddess" is known as Kumari in Nepal, which means virgin goddess. This tradition dates back to the 16th century, and according to Hindu holy texts, the goddess is the embodiment of the goddess of wisdom and the symbol of the god of strength. The "Living Goddess" is believed to be the source of kingship and protection in Nepal and the spiritual pillar of Hindus.

Since the beginning of the Mara Dynasty in Nepal, successive kings of Nepal have been present on the goddess's day to receive the blessings of the goddess in order to maintain their rule. The goddess also imparts her divine powers to the king when she gives the king a sleeve, otherwise it is possible to cause disaster for the royal family and the country. It is believed that the "living goddess" can bless the king and people of Nepal and bring peace and prosperity to the people.

The selection of the new "living goddess" was carried out by the royal priests, a process that was both mysterious and unique. The 'Living Goddess' must be from the Shakyamuni family of the Buddha Shakyamuni, and her ancestors must have lived near the two holy rivers of Bagmati and Visnuti.

Born innocent, without any stains, the constellation must be the same as the king, there must be no scars on the body, no illness, no blood; She must also not be afraid of the dark.

Once the girl is chosen, she will begin to leave the worldly life, leave the trajectory of normal people, live in the Kumari temple all day long, and begin her seemingly glorious but in fact lonely life as a living goddess.

Every morning by 7 a.m., she had to put on Kumari's costume. At 9 a.m., she must sit on the golden throne and receive the worship of the people. Then follow the teacher's learning. Every day at 12 o'clock and 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the "living goddess" will appear at the window in a unique sleeve-colored costume and silver jewelry for visitors to admire, and other book lovers are reading.

She can't live with her family, and even her parents can only visit once in a while. It is not until adolescence arrives and the successor takes over that he is able to return home. When she retired, all she could keep was a gold coin and a sleeve-colored dress that she wore when she was in office.

Once they lose the aura of Goddess Kumari, their lives immediately become real and brutal. With little education and a long period of disconnection from social life, the retired Kumari goddesses had to stay at home for long periods of time, relying on the patronage of their parents, relatives and friends, and well-wishers.

And in Nepal, there is a cruel superstition that any man who marries his predecessor Kumari will die within six months of coughing up blood. This makes Goddess Kumari's life even more lonely after retirement. In the past, many Kumari goddesses were forced to stay in their boudoirs for the rest of their lives after retirement.

"But these things have become a distant past, and now the goddess can have time to play, and there will be a special teacher to teach her homework, and even after retirement, she can get a salary of three thousand rupees a month, which can barely make ends meet. As for the tradition of not being able to marry, it was also broken by the previous goddess and became nonsense. ”

Hearing Pallas's words, Lin Bai couldn't help but become more and more curious, if it was really according to what he said before, then there seemed to be no harm in being this goddess except for being usually lonely, then why did this family talk about the tiger color change so seriously!

"But this is the fourth time this year that the Living Goddess has been selected. The previous three did not live for three months after becoming living goddesses. Although the royal priests say that they were summoned by the goddess Kumari to ascend to Elysium! But below there are already rumors that the living goddess has been cursed, and no matter who holds it, she will die!"

"If it was placed in the past, it can be said that it is a great honor to have a living goddess in the family, and it can be said to be a blessing given by the gods, but now, where can anyone dare to send the girl in the family. It's just that I don't have the money to bribe those royal priests, so they decided to let Preti be the next living goddess!"

At this point, Pallas couldn't stop crying, and Pretti was hugging her mother, and the family couldn't stop crying, and they looked as pitiful as they wept, and even Sophia's long thick eyelashes were covered with tears.

The eternal inheritance has been passed down to the present day, but there is a problem?! Lin Bai's brows were furrowed, and his heart suddenly moved, feeling as if he had grasped something, but he couldn't explain it clearly, and in his heart, he looked towards Chen Bai'an, but found that he was also a thoughtful look, as if he also felt that there was something strange in this, and it was related to the intention of Lin Bai and others.

"It has been the will of the gods to make Preti a living goddess, and no one can change this now! These friends who have come all the way from China, please don't get involved in our own affairs in Nepal!"

Just when Lin Bai wanted to ask about the specific date of the abnormal appearance of this 'living goddess', an old man's voice came from outside the door, this voice could almost be said to be the most unpleasant voice Lin Bai had ever heard, every word was unusually hoarse, as if it was pulled out of his chest, and there was an indescribable creep between each byte.

After a few violent coughs, an old man walked in from outside. Compared to the voice, the old man was even more terrifying, an old face was as shriveled as the peel of an orange that had been exposed to the sun for countless years, and as long as the eyes came into contact with the old man's slightly yellowed eyes, it would give birth to a feeling of extreme discomfort from the bottom of his heart, as if he had been bitten by a poisonous snake.
