Chapter 416: Gollum of the Fierce God
Chu Gexin said, this little kid is really realistic enough, but listening to the meaning of his words, this group of people in the séance society really doesn't seem to treat themselves badly, but think about it, whoever encounters this situation in the other place, it is impossible not to enjoy it, even if it is a group of gods who believe in God in the West, they obviously can't make up anything, and they can rule Europe for thousands of years by fooling people with one mouth, and they can make a lot of money, not to mention that these séances are really able to make gods to help people improve their lives, Although, in fact, the belief in these gods came from these common people.
But thinking needs guidance, and without the help of these people in the séance, the civilians here would obviously not be able to live such a good life, so it is nothing for these séances to take advantage of this.
While speaking, the three of them followed the children to the scene of the celebration of the four gods, which seemed to be the center of the whole village, a huge open square, a large number of flames were lit in the middle, and the four statues of the gods stood around the fire, looking at the shape of these gods, it was obvious that they were the statues of the so-called four gods.
Many people were dancing around the idol's fire, forming several circles, and the circle in the middle was made up of four black-robed men, who were carrying out some kind of religious ritual, which was obviously the séance's godstick.
In the circle outside, there are some elderly people, dressed in bright religious clothes, sitting with the same face of piety.
Outside, there are a lot of adult men and women.
As for the outermost circle, it is full of young people and children.
"Look, the priests are holding a ceremony, offering gifts to the four gods, asking for their blessings, as long as the ceremony is successful, we will have a good weather and happiness here all year round, come, we will join in too, will you come together?"
As he spoke, the children went into the outer circle, and most of the people in this circle were young people and children, and the prayer dance was also the worst, but they just jumped to the beat, and in contrast, the people in the inner circle were more and more pious than the other, and their movements were meticulous and decent, and their faces were full of solemnity and piety, and it was obvious that they believed that if they sincerely prayed to the gods, the gods would bless their lives.
Chu Ge also found that the people in this village were very diverse, in addition to ordinary humans, there were many humans with strange characteristics, such as antlers, cat ears, wolf tails, and even some of them emitted strange lights.
Xin Jiuniang explained, "Many of the people living in the Southern Barbarian Wilderness are a mixture of human and demon races, because they don't blend into human society, and there is no way to live like the demon race, so they fled here, and there are also some monks who cultivate the left path of the side door, either because the sect has fallen, or because the practice has gone wrong, and they have to flee from Middle Earth, so most of the people in the Southern Barbarian Wilderness look strange, you don't have to take it to heart." ”
Chu Gexin said that it was no wonder, no one on his side was surprised by the two spirits.
So the three of them also blended into the crowd, jumping blindly while secretly observing the situation of the ceremony.
The flames in the fire became more and more vigorous, and with the prayers of the four black-robed priests, they suddenly rose to the sky, burning violently, forming a mountain-like shape, and the black-robed priests stopped one after another, shouting loudly around, "The sound of prayer has been conveyed to Taixu, the four gods have responded, now offer sacrifices!" ”
Immediately, the old people in the second circle around them took the offerings placed on the ground and threw them into the fire, and as soon as the sacrifices fell into the fire, they disappeared immediately, but the surrounding villagers cheered, as if they felt that the four gods had accepted their gifts and would surely bless them.
As the sacrifices were thrown more and more, some visions gradually emerged, many emerald green flowers and plants grew on the ground, and the sky resounded with the sound of pleasant bird calls, and clear springs emerged on the ground。。。。。。
As the vision unfolded, the people became more excited.
However, at this moment, a terrible roar suddenly came from the mountain south of the village.
The villagers looked horrified, and the priests stopped their movements, and looked in the direction from which the sound came, and after a while, seeing that the sound did not sound again, the priest shouted, "Don't stop, keep throwing." The villagers threw some sacrifices with a disturbed expression, and the roar sounded again, and the sound was obviously much closer, and with the roar there was the sound of trees breaking, and the woods on the south side of the village trembled violently, as if some terrible huge monster was approaching quickly, the sound of the trees being broken was getting closer and closer, and finally a huge monster rushed out of the woods and appeared in front of everyone.
It was a huge orangutan six or seven meters tall, looking like King Kong, ugly and vicious.
"Oh my God, it's the god Gollum."
"It's over, it's over, it must be that we don't send him sacrifices, and the fierce god Gollum is angry."
The villagers shouted in panic, but Chu Ge was puzzled when he heard it, and pulled someone by the hand and asked, "What's the matter with this fierce god Gollum." ”
The child had a frightened look on his face, "The fierce god Gollum is specialized in eating children, and if the child of any family is disobedient, Gollum will run down from the mountain and eat the child." ”
There were also a few villagers next to him who explained two sentences, Chu Ge understood now, this so-called fierce god Gollum is actually a mountain legend circulated by the locals, used to scare children, similar to the one Chu Ge heard when he was a child. Big horse monkey's thing,Over time, it has spread,People know that there is such a monster,But whether it's true or not, but few people will really study,If you change it in another place,This kind of legend probably has no practical significance,But in the Southern Barbarian Wilderness, where the power of natural confusion is very strong,This legend is often condensed by people's faith power like an entity,Become a real terrible monster。
This is the case with this Gollum, about a few hundred years ago, this fierce god Gollum began to show its main line, people in order to prevent Gollum from making trouble, will they burn some sacrifices to it, but with the spread of the four gods, it is obvious that no one will burn sacrifices for it.
The monster was roaring at the villagers at this time, "You ignorant humans, why don't you worship me anymore, but instead sacrifice your sacrifices to the so-called four gods, there are no so-called four gods at all, you idiots, I will eat you all, so that you can understand the fate of blasphemy." As he spoke, Gollum lunged towards the crowd.
