Chapter 980: Sacrifice
Chu Xintian listened to the legendary wolf god Abdu, who was also a baby abandoned by humans at the beginning, adopted by the wolf clan and turned into a wolf child.
Chu Xingxing guessed that the word "wolf child" could also be because after his great strength, after he became a god, he was worried that his identity was known to ordinary humans, so people would not know the word "wolf child", so it became taboo.
As for Abdu, who eats only raw meat, loves offal, and likes virgins, these legends may have been fabricated by later generations, or they may be true.
Abdo may have done this for his own rule and to scare others. It could also be that in the later years of the ruler, he would become ignorant, or he would pursue eternal life and do something improper. This is not surprising in history.
Chu Xintian retracted his thoughts and listened to the white shopkeeper:
Although Abdu is dead, the Liao people who believe in the gods believe that Abdu is only a physical death, and his god is still floating somewhere in the wasteland. If they can find a new body, their protector Abdo will reappear. One of the wizards stood up, and he had a way to bring Abdu's soul back into the world. ”
Chu Xingxing frowned. Hearing this, he thought, let God come back to this world, right? Is there such witchcraft?
However, Chu Xintian knew that the reason why he thought so was also because of the story of this eloquent white shopkeeper.
Where in the world is witchcraft?
Witchcraft is simply a belief that humans don't know much about the world.
In ancient times, human knowledge was limited, and they believed that they were the leaders of all things and had the ability to communicate with the gods, so they created all kinds of witchcraft.
It's just a mental stop
Chu Xintian didn't believe that the wizard in this story could really bring the gods back to the world.
In this world, there is no god at all, only wishful thinking.
The white shopkeeper said: "Guest officer, you must be very curious. What power does a mage have to bring Abdu's gods back into this world? In fact, people's sacrifices are very simple. ”
"Sacrifice?" Chu Xintian thought of the previous white shopkeeper, the people of Ulan Town had to sacrifice a pair of boys and girls to Abu Dhabi every month to feed him.
The sacrifice of a sorcerer is also a man?
To whom shall we offer sacrifice?
The sorcerer asked the inhabitants of Ulan Town to look for wolves when the moon was full and offered a newborn boy to the wolf god. The baby boy must have been born around the full moon of the previous month. ”
"Abdo is said to speak during the full moon. The wolf family is the messenger of the moon god. When the moon is full, the wolf clan has the greatest strength and the strongest spiritual aura. It attaches to the baby. If the wolf adopts the baby, it means that God is in the world again. ”
Hearing this, Chu Xintian frowned: "What if the wolf doesn't adopt the child?"
Sacrifice is a cruel thing.
Before human civilization, people were sacrificed along with living people.
Chu Xintian remembered that in the movie, the Indians would become enemy prisoners after losing the war. If it doesn't rain and the crops fail, the shamans will cut off the heads of the captives on the high altar and offer human blood to the gods, praying for rain.
With the blood on her head, she rolled down the stairs and rolled down quickly, and the picture is still in her mind.
Later, people turned the live sacrifice into an animal sacrifice.
However, she now lives in an ancient era. Although the Central Plains region learned Confucius and Mencius and became benevolent and civilized, the town of Wulan was located in the north and was incompatible with civilization.
Not even hundreds of years ago.
The poor babies who were sacrificed must have died a terrible death.
