Chapter 52: The World is Impermanent
So the matter was settled, and Ichiro and Maki set off with the group as Arie's attendants. But there is another problem, that is, the carriage is already seriously overloaded.
Originally, the design of this carriage was for Mo to sit alone. Although because of its own luxurious design, the three people who sat down before it would not be narrow. But now, if there are two more people, it will not be able to sit down.
Even though Ichiro followed the crow to sit in front of him to catch the car, it was still too crowded for the four of them to sit down. Faced with such a situation, Mo shook his head and left a sentence directly, I still have a little matter to deal with, and I will meet in the town in front tomorrow, and then turn around and leave.
And Huiyin looked sideways at the back of Mo's departure, this time she wasn't worried that she would take the opportunity to escape. Is it because he sees through his ability to take Ah Li to escape in a short period of time, or is it because the things he has to deal with are really so important.
Anyway, no matter what the hell is, I really don't have the idea of taking the opportunity to escape now. First, he really didn't recover, and it was really difficult to escape with Ah Li's words; Second......
Huiyin glanced at Ichiro and Maki on the side. If the two of them just leave, I'm afraid these two people will have nowhere to stay. While that guy wouldn't be the kind of person to anger others, she and Ali weren't the kind of people who could just abandon them. After all, nominally, they are now Ali's attendants.
Anyway, this guy didn't expect such a situation, so he agreed to take these two people in. Huiyin shook her head, forget it, no matter how much of these useless guesses there is, it is meaningless. Anyway, in terms of results, nothing will change.
So, the group got into the carriage and set off on their journey, ready to cross the mountains to the next town.
……
Ink wandered through a jungle, remembering what the Grim Reaper had said to him. During that conversation, the other party did reveal a lot of information about the Netherworld, including the general beginning and end of this incident.
First of all, the so-called Netherworld Yellow Spring itself is not as terrifying as the world imagines. Its main duty is to receive the souls of the deceased and guide them to reincarnate existence.
Therefore, the Netherworld generally does not interfere in the things of the Yang world. They will only be responsible for the afterlife, and as for life, it is naturally controlled by the living themselves. So normally, whether it is a dispute in the world, blood flows like a river; Or the evil demons are in trouble, and all living beings are sinking, and they will not directly interfere with them.
They will only wait quietly until the moment of death, when they will take their souls away and be judged.
Therefore, in the yang world, there are few rumors about the netherworld, and most of the so-called ghosts and ghosts are brought to the netherworld at the moment of birth. It's hard for the world to know.
But not meddling in the yang world does not mean that they will ignore everything. There are exceptions to everything, and this 'evil god' this time is a special case.
In fact, the body of this so-called 'evil god' is indeed a fierce and cruel basilisk. And its own death has been determined long ago. However, just before its death, an accident occurred.
It was supposed to die, but before it died, it accidentally absorbed the chaotic and coarse power of faith incense of the people of the mountains and wilderness. With the help of this magical power, it not only recovered from its mortal injuries and survived, but also stole the faith of the mountain people, gradually transforming into a legendary god.
Originally, if it ascended to the throne and kept to itself, then the Netherworld would have acquiesced to its chance. After all, although the general trend is irreversible, there will be waves from time to time. It is not uncommon for this to rewrite its trajectory due to some inexplicable variable.
The left and right are just a small stream of water under the endless river waves, which occasionally whirls, and it is harmless. But as the so-called nature is difficult to change, if such a ferocious basilisk restricts his temperament because he has transformed into a god, it will be a strange thing.
Originally, it had stolen the divine position for the first time, and in addition to the fact that it had to recuperate from its injuries, it also slept and calmed down for a long time. Until one day, he woke up from his slumber when he realized that his faith was drastically decreasing.
At that time, it was the time when Maki's father and daughter moved into the mountain village, and the status of the sacrifice plummeted. Because the status of the priests declined, so did the villagers' belief in the so-called gods of the tribe. And it is precisely because of this that the basilisk, which has gradually stolen the position of the god worshipped by the tribe, is awakened from its slumber.
The basilisk that sensed the change in things was naturally very angry, and even wanted to destroy the entire village completely. But soon it learns the nature of its present existence. As it has been partially deified, it can no longer be counted as an independent being. If the village's faith is completely lost, its own existence will also collapse.
Since it is not possible to directly exterminate the village and the villagers, it does not mean that it will give up. What's more, it is now closely related to the faith of the mountain people, and if it is allowed to continue to lose faith, its existence will also be destroyed.
Needless to say, what happened after that. In order to redeem his own beliefs, and to satisfy his cruel and bloodthirsty nature, a self-directed and self-performed 'god and ghost showdown' was born.
It has to be said that this basilisk does have a certain mind. If it is allowed to continue to develop like this, it is unlikely that after a while, a complete 'evil god' will be born completely.
But the basilisk's actions drew the Nether's gaze back to it. Creatures that should not have died at this time have died suddenly, and the lives of many mountain people who should not have developed in this way have been completely disrupted.
And this anomaly happened to be noticed by one of the inquisitors of the Netherworld. In that case, let's dispose of it. The judge made such a decision.
The basilisk itself has violated its own trajectory because of certain variables. In a sense, such an existence that steals the opportunity of life and death and violates the laws of life and death violates the rules of the netherworld. It should be sent to re-end its 'death'.
But there is a silver lining to everything, and since it is expected to be a god, it is not impossible to open the net. After all, the gods themselves are different from normal beings, and the law of life and death cannot be completely ignored by them.
But the basilisk didn't want to make waves. Not only did he not abide by his own priesthood, but he also wantonly hunted other creatures and disturbed the lives of the mountain people. It doesn't matter if it is completely transformed into the body of a god. The Netherworld is only concerned with the affairs of normal beings, and the gods, even evil gods, are no longer under their jurisdiction.
But in fact, it is only half of itself transformed and stolen part of the gods. If you run out and do it, then there is nothing to say.
And the judge, who sensed this situation, also ordered the Grim Reaper to be sent to bring this existence that defied the law of life and death back to the Netherworld, and erase the anomaly again.
After learning what happened to this matter, Mo Ye just shook his head and didn't say anything. The so-called if you don't die, you won't die, obviously this basilisk is simply self-inflicted and self-defeating. Even if it hadn't happened to have intervened in the matter, it would have been executed by the Grim Reaper who followed and returned to the Netherworld.
Obviously, it is rare to escape the horror of life and death for ordinary creatures, but because of what he did, he brought himself back to death. I have to sigh that the world is impermanent.
