Volume 2 Fate Gathering, The Battle of Zhongnan Mountain Chapter 149 The Pious Man
The ritual of sacrifice begins in earnest at this moment.
As the old man's words fell, the crowd began to boil again. The villagers were all enthusiastic and high-spirited.
Then all the eleven oracles turned around. They bowed their hands and bowed, facing the Wujiang River in front of them.
After them, all the villagers followed them and knelt down together.
"We are grateful to God for giving us food and bless us with peace. So we are willing to sacrifice everything we have to God, including our lives, including our souls. ”
"We are blessed by God to have all of this. So once again, we are grateful to God, and we want to offer our most sincere salute to God. ”
When he had finished speaking, the eleven old men all bowed their heads to the ground deeply.
And with their kowtows, the water surface in this Wujiang River also began to rise and fall continuously. The tide is so strong that the rivers seem to be toppling down.
And the eleven old men then stood up and faced the villagers again.
"Eleven of us have already given everything we have, along with our souls, to God. Therefore, we are able to have this kind of identity as a divine envoy, so as to replace God to enforce the law. ”
"But we, after all, are already old, so this position, we naturally can't do it for long. But God is still there, so in order to have someone to take our place in the future, this sacrificial ceremony is more than just a simple matter of receiving another gift. ”
"Because this time, you will not only have the opportunity to receive the gift of God. Moreover, the best of you can do the same to obtain the position of this oracle. This is a reward that God has given to you devout believers. ”
When the old man had finished speaking, he began to pause. Then the crowd boiled again, and he continued to look at the villagers in front of him.
"But, after all, piety also has to be divided into levels, so this is closely related to your usual behavior. Some people are religious, and they give what is most precious to them, so it is only natural that God will treat them well. But what about some people? They have made a mistake and become a sinful person, and God, even though He is merciful, can still allow them to continue to live here. But sin is sin, and although God is merciful to them, it does not mean that they can have the same rights as us. ”
Therefore, the order of sacrifice is derived from this. This is the same as when we worship every day, and the most devout believers will naturally have the first rights. And those who are guilty, they can only be queued at that last moment. ”
"However, although the order is arranged in this way, it only means that your chances are much greater than they are. But the end result will depend on the gifts you have prepared. ”
"Then that's all I have to say, and then it's time to start the sacrifices. I wish you here that the faithful may be given the place of this oracle and that the guilty will be able to atone for your sins. ”
Then the sacrifice officially began. ”
After the old man finished speaking, the other ten divine envoys retreated to both sides. And then, the old man began to stand aside.
Then, in order, the first man came up.
"I, I'm glad I'm the most devout person to God. But I've given everything I have to God, so I can't get anything else. I, then, I will sacrifice my soul to God in this place. When the villager had finished speaking, he bowed down in fear.
Unlike the other villagers, they all prepared all kinds of treasures at this time, and planned to come here specifically to sacrifice to the gods. But all his precious things have already been given away, and he really can't take out anything else. So he was terrified, he didn't know how to face God, he originally felt that the position of the divine envoy this time was already destined to be lost to him.
Then we don't expect the position of the messenger of God, but hope that God will not punish you for this, and reduce yourself to the same level as the believers who work in the fields. But fortunately, the eleven oracles have also spoken before, and they all sacrificed their souls to God. Then, since the soul can also be sacrificed, let us sacrifice the soul to God here.
It's just a soul that exists but is illusory. Besides, every man, they have a soul, and if this kind of thing can be sacrificed, then is it not true that every person, they can do the same, but if this is the case, who else will sacrifice to other things?
That's why he's afraid, he's afraid of what God will see of his distress, he's afraid that God will feel that he's disrespectful to him.
But at this time, the old man's words were already spoken.
"Wang Xu, a villager in Fangcheng Village, wants to dedicate his soul to God, and asks God to give instructions. The old man bowed to the river, and then a kind of light emanated from the villager's body, and it poured into the river.
"Congratulations, God has accepted your sacrifice, and you can now go down there and wait. The old man spoke to the villager.
But the villagers were still trembling, and after a long time they dared to stand up in fear and begin to walk among the people. He kept groping his forehead, and his eyes were already more and more puzzled.
Because everything was normal at this time, there was no discomfort at all, and he still had his own consciousness. But it was because of this that he began to wonder, his soul had already been sacrificed, but why didn't he feel anything?
Surely God didn't take anything from Himself. Just want to declare to other believers that this is a gift to the pious?
The villager wondered, but at the same time felt so. At this point, he felt that God was simply too great.
But in fact, it was not only him who was confused, but also someone who was far away from him, who was at the end of the crowd at this time, with a complicated face.
"A ray of light was drawn from the body, but it did not affect everything that was original. How can this be like what the sword cultivators of Zhongnan Mountain, their second senior brother said at that time, the situation inside the ghost building?"
"By the way, the same is true inside the haunted building. They come from those souls every year. A ray of light was absorbed, but the souls themselves did not feel anything abnormal. ”
"So, isn't this exactly the same as the inside of that ghost building? Could it be that the god they believe in is actually the master of that ghost building?"
Yun Shui thought about it like this, and then his eyes began to be shocked.
"But the master in the ghost building, he is the great wise monk of my Buddhism, and his strength has already reached a level. How can they care anymore, what about some of the villagers here? Besides, the ghost buildings have already been blocked. ”
"No, it can't be the owner of that ghost building, because he owns the ghost building, and all he needs are ghosts and monsters that can fight. And judging by the way he behaved, if the so-called god was actually him, then he would probably continue to do the same thing he did to the villages he slaughtered in the first place. So if it was really him, then these villagers would not be alive again. ”
"Because he doesn't need faith at all, what he needs is ghosts, ghosts that can be filled into their ghost buildings. ”
"But if it weren't for him, then who would it be? Why are their ways so similar? Could it be that the inspiration in the ghost building is not only taken from Lanruo Temple, but also depends on the so-called gods of this place?"
"But when did the owner of the ghost building start to have a relationship with the so-called gods here?"
"Oh, yes. The Buddha said before that the owner of the ghost building, he was actually for a woman, so he began to deviate from the Buddha's door, and that woman, she was still full of blood. ”
"Uh? wait. A monk turned his back on Buddhism for the sake of a woman with bloody hands, how could this be like what he had seen in that tomb before? Could it be that the master of the ghost building was the monk, and the woman was the corpse in the coffin?"
If it is said in this way, then the tomb and the tunnel are connected, which means that the owner of the ghost tower has a relationship with this god. And the owner in the ghost building, he still has a relationship with that tomb, but I also have a relationship with the tomb. Doesn't this mean that there is actually a relationship between me and the owner of the ghost building?"
Yun Shui thought of this, so he didn't dare to continue thinking about it. If the owner of the ghost building really has a relationship with him, then isn't this matter just that he has been doing evil?
No, it's not like this, it must not be like this. Yun Shui hesitated again, he felt that his previous judgment must have gone wrong somewhere, and it must have been something wrong with his judgment.
