Volume 2 The Tragedy Chapter 217 God is a puppet
Listening to the words of the young elder, Ayi'er's mind gradually calmed down from worry and sadness.
After a long time, she regained her majesty as a divine concubine and asked Qing Lao:
"Elder Qing, is there a new order coming from there?"
When asked, Ayi'er turned her face slightly to the side, apparently referring to the giant screen behind her.
But seeing that Qing Lao shook his head, Ayi'er seemed to be relieved and continued to ask:
"What's the news from the Divine Monarch?"
Qing Lao thought for a moment and said respectfully:
"The orc rebellion is basically decided, and the Divine Monarch has sent a message today that he will return to the temple within half a month."
Ayi'er nodded when she heard this, but suddenly she frowned as if she remembered something complicated again.
"Qing Lao, do you say that this world is really in our hands?"
Listening to such a question, the young man, who had always been quite calm, suddenly raised his head and looked at Ayi'er, who looked puzzled.
Why did Ayi'er, the most powerful person in the world, say such a sentence?
He thought about this question with a clear answer, and was about to answer it, but he heard Ayi'er speak again, but it seemed like she was talking to herself.
"They have given me and the Divine Monarch the power to calm all the chaos in the world, and we use these powers to maintain the balance between the nations and races of the world.
Originally, this world was supposed to be spent day after day and year after year in this division and union.
But what I never understand is why sometimes things happen that we don't have control over.
For example, those rebellious gods, they are obviously loyal to me and the Divine Monarch, but why would they suddenly challenge the Divine Monarch without any purpose, so that the Divine Monarch could not withdraw from interfering in the ensuing chaos everywhere.
And then there are the orders they give, seemingly, seemingly. ”
Speaking of this, even Ayi'er didn't dare to say what she was thinking in her heart.
"It seems like a child's joke."
This sentence is a common thought between her and her husband, Shenjun.
Although the Divine Monarch had never said it to herself, when their orders came at certain times, Ayi'er could see the same sigh in the Divine Monarch's eyes.
Qing Lao listened to Ayi'er's words, and he didn't know whether he agreed or disagreed, but his face was still full of calm and full of respect for Ayi'er.
"Divine concubine, originally the old slave shouldn't have said much about these things, but seeing that the divine concubine was confused, the old slave could only tell the divine concubine everything he knew.
But whether it can solve the confusion of the concubine and the old slave is uncertain. ”
Speaking of this, Qing Lao looked at the interested Divine Concubine and didn't seem to stop himself from speaking, so he straightened his thoughts and continued:
"Don't the Divine Concubine and the Divine Monarch find that the orders coming from there are sometimes childish and surprising?
Do you think that there is always an invisible hand controlling the actions of the god concubine and the god king?
Even the divine concubine can't be by the side of the divine general, which is their order, but the divine concubine doesn't understand what the truth is? ”
Qing Lao sighed as he spoke, looking at Ayi'er's changing and contemplative expression.
"What does Elder Qing think about this?" Ayi'er asked.
"Divine Concubine, the old slave has also experienced a lot of things to assist the four generations of Divine Monarchs, and in my opinion, they are more like they want to make this world what they hope through us
That's it.
For some reason, they can only dictate to us and have little control over the other races, so we become their puppets, following their orders.
Therefore, for thousands of years, the people of the world have feared us like tigers, and it is only a matter of time before we want to destroy a country and a race. But we are to obey their commands, even if they are absurd.
The orcs of the Divine Monarch's crusade did not have the heart to resist this time, they just wanted to break away from the constraints of the temple and find a new place to live.
But despite this, the Divine Monarch was still ordered to kill all these orcs, so even if the Divine Monarch is the most powerful lord in the world, he is also a puppet restrained by people. ”
When Qing Lao said this, he looked behind Ayi'er again and stopped talking.
"Qing Lao, haven't the previous Divine Monarchs thought about changing?"
Qing Lao was shocked when he heard Ayi'er's words, he lowered his head and said with a very painful expression: "Divine Concubine, the old slave is already a big rebel here, as for the question of the Divine Concubine, the old slave does not dare to answer, and please don't think about it again."
In a few years, when Anan succeeded to the position of the Divine Monarch, the Divine Monarch and the Divine Concubine would naturally know where they went. ”
Ayi'er looked at Qing Lao's expression and knew that he didn't want to say more, so she sighed slightly and said:
"Young man, go follow Anan,
In the past ten years, those who have lived with me have lived with me, and the saints are among them. ”
The old man bowed down and saluted Ayi'er, and his figure disappeared in front of Ayi'er.
But Ayi'er didn't seem to care about the ghostly figure when the old man left, and fell into contemplation again.
She once again remembered the long hair, from youth to youth, from youth to prime of life, from slender figure to pot-bellied, bearing countless pains and responsibilities in her heart.
"Jin Xing, I will persuade the Divine Monarch to let you do what you want to do without interfering.
Even I want to see your success more than you do.
Because there are things that always have to change, and I want to know some answers that no one has ever known before.
I always felt as if the world wasn't what we thought it was. ”
……
On the banks of the Wuhu River, there was chaos in the camp of the Yu coalition army.
It was not because of the invasion of foreign enemies, nor because of the sudden change in the military camp, but because Xiao Jinxing, who had woken up, asked all the men and horses to return to the golden tribe of the Huaxu clan immediately.
Sixteen worms killed 213 soldiers in less than half an hour, seriously injuring Xiao Jinxing and Mu Huali.
Threatened by a thousand archers armed with strong bows and arrows, and the best archery warriors among the Yu, including Zheto, the result was only to force them to flee to the Wuhu Waters.
And the seven worms shot dead on the spot were only the result of their own self-defeat.
Although Hu Laoxi's immediate command was also a key factor in being able to kill the worms, everyone knew that if those worms did not attack the archers head-on, then these thousand archers would still have nothing to do with them.
Under the huge difference in combat effectiveness, Xiao Jinxing, who had just woken up from a coma, couldn't think of a better way to solve the crisis even if he couldn't hold back a burst of dizziness and think about it.
It's just that he suddenly thought of the earthen walls surrounded by the tribes he encountered along the way, and now it seems that those earthen walls were not built to defend against the invasion of other tribes, but to protect against the invasion of the Wuhu water
Built by the worms who ran out.
It seems that the weakness of these worms who are not good at jumping is well known to everyone, but despite this, Xiao Jinxing still thinks that these Huaxu people have no way to deal with these rough-skinned monsters in addition to passive defense.
Otherwise, why didn't you see a single boat on the Wuhu River during these months of marching?
But Xiao Jinxing was also very strange, since there were worms in the Wuhu water, why would the Huaxu people put the Golden Tribe in such a dangerous place.
What Xiao Jinxing didn't know was that although the Huaxu people lived next to the worms, the number of times they saw the worms was very small.
Most people don't even see a creeping monster a few times in their lives, so naturally it doesn't affect their lives.
It is rumored that many years ago, there were indeed a few crazy worms who climbed ashore and entered the tribe of the Huaxu people to slaughter, so in order to avoid this extremely rare thing from happening again, the tribes built this earthen wall with the acquiescence of the patriarch.
However, almost all of the walls were not used to protect against the invasion of the worms, but were used in battles against the Danger, and it is not known whether this was a blessing in disguise or an unintentional planting.
Xiao Jinxing naturally didn't know these things at this time, the only thing he knew was that these worms would definitely not give up, and they would definitely wait for him somewhere on their march.
According to Ayir, the worms are divided into fishmen, winged people, and orcs.
Therefore, even if they stay away from the Wuhu Water, there is no guarantee that the Worms will not send winged people or orcs to intercept them.
Xiao Jinxing had already learned the power of orcs and fishmen, but although he hadn't seen the wingmen, just thinking that they could fly in the sky was enough to make Xiao Jinxing feel powerless frustration.
It seems that the only way to do this now is to go to the Golden Tribe to avoid the worms, and wait until the spring weather is warm before returning.
According to Ayi'er's words, this winter is the season when the worms can be active at any time.
As for going to the Golden Tribe, whether the earth wall can resist the worm people, Xiao Jinxing can't think about it so much.
In the face of absolute power, no matter how meticulous Xiao Jinxing's mind is and how many schemes he has, it is only in vain.
"Xin'er, tell me what they said at the time?"
Xiao Jinxing, who was sweating profusely, looked at Xin'er with a concerned face and asked.
At this moment, except for Xin'er, the rest of the people in the tent had already gathered their teams to prepare for departure according to Xiao Jinxing's orders, so Xiao Jinxing and Xin'er also got a rare time to be alone.
Xiao Jinxing knew that the people who were crowded with the tent were all henchmen who cared about him very much, so although he was anxious in his heart, it was difficult to say anything, and at this time he felt a little relaxed.
"Big brother, Xin'er will tell you everything she knows, but now you better rest first and see what your face looks haggard."
Xin'er said with concern as she picked up the bloody clothes she had just changed from Xiao Jinxing and prepared to walk out of the tent.
Xiao Jinxing has been in a coma for three whole days, and the wound on his shoulder has also shown signs of blood clotting, at least the blood oozing from the clothes he changes every day has become less and less.
But the sword wound he suffered that day was too serious, and he lost a lot of blood at that time, so Xin'er didn't want to rush to let Xiao Jinxing, who had just woken up, bother his brain.
