Chapter 516: Enwei
The Great Elder spoke to Tashi, and Tashi had a slight reaction.
He raised his head, glanced at the Great Elder, and then put his gaze on me, staring at me for more than ten seconds.
I was a little unnatural to him, and in order to hide the expression on my face, I could only continue to put my hot face against my cold ass and continue to say to Tashi.
"Brother Tashi, I really didn't mean to..."
Tashi interrupted me and said to me, "It's my own eyes that don't know Tarzan, and I deserve to die." "
There was silence for a moment, his eyes widening. He looked at me with sincerity and said again: "Chen Ping'an, you have brought back the Bible, and you have the power of the origin of the ancestors, and you are the chosen person of the ancestors, and now I serve you as the holy lord." "
As he spoke, he knelt on the ground with his body propped up, and kowtowed to me like the Great Elder had done before.
"Meet the Holy Lord!"
His movement seemed to affect the wounds on his body, and more blood flowed out. It looks a little worrying.
After all, it was in my hands, so don't have any accidents.
I quickly grabbed him, tried to pull him up, and then I went to the treatment when it was time to do it, don't waste time here.
As a result, Tashi did not accept my kindness.
He said to me, "Tashi blasphemed the Holy Lord. I blasphemed the Patriarchs and the Bible, willingly confessed my sins, and hoped that the Lord would not blame me. "
Another salute.
I hurriedly said, "Okay, I don't blame you, hurry up, you are not lightly injured, let the Great Elder find someone to take a look at you, or go back to rest first." "
At this time, the Great Elder came over and said, "Tashi has broken the rules, and he himself said just now that he will confess his sins in front of the First Ancestor and the Holy Lord. "
I glanced at the Great Elder and said with some dissatisfaction, "He already knows that he is wrong, so why should he care if he is guilty or not?" "
Honestly, I don't think there's anything wrong with Tashi.
The Great Elder said again: "To blaspheme the Ancestor and the Holy Lord is to be damned, and he himself knows this, and he doesn't need the Holy Lord to say more for him." "
"What?!"
I couldn't help but shout.
I was shocked in my heart.
What kind of logic is this?
"When you say confession, do you mean that he should die? What is the reasoning?! "
I didn't expect that when they said that they had pleaded guilty to their crimes, they would actually ask Tashi to judge himself. I thought I was going to make him admit his mistake to me, but I didn't expect it to be so serious.
It's also too harsh.
The Great Elder looked at me, nodded and said, "The Holy Lord may not know our rules very well, and the sin of blasphemy is a capital crime. Tashi's powerlessness and offense towards you should be the result. "
I immediately shook my head and said, "No! "
They all looked at me in amazement when they heard me speak.
I took a deep breath to calm myself down.
I really don't know the rules of the guardians of the Yellow River, but judging from the day of contact, they really have too many rules. It is even stricter than the feudal society, and it costs your life to say the wrong thing.
So, even I need to be careful not to break any "rules".
"Great Elder, I really didn't know that the confession you said was for the life of Big Brother Tashi, if I had known about it, I would definitely not have agreed. In addition, I don't think that Tashi's mistakes require him to apologize for his death, and he can just apologize, and I can accept it. "
In closing, I would like to emphasize one point.
"If I am the Holy Lord, I still need to use human life as a foreshadowing or prestige, then I would rather not do it, and ask the Great Elder to take back his life and let Brother Tashi go to rest and recuperate."
Tashi was dumbfounded, looking at me in a daze.
Especially when I said the last word, I would rather not be a holy lord than let him live.
For him, it was a price beyond imagination, and he couldn't understand or think of anything worth it to make such a sacrifice.
This difference in philosophy comes from the difference in beliefs.
My words also made the Great Elder and all the Yellow River Guardians unacceptable, and they were all stunned for a while.
After a while, the Grand Elder came back to his senses and spoke to me.
"Holy Lord, you... You... What does this do? Tashi is blasphemous..."
Hear him say something like that. I immediately interrupted and said directly: "What blasphemy? "
"I don't see Tashi's blasphemy, he has a lot of reverence for the patriarchs, and he doesn't slack off on the Bible. As for his questioning of me, that is not blasphemy, but a responsibility. He is willing to put his life on your behalf, and this is out of reverence in his heart, not blasphemy. Therefore, I think he honors the Ancestor and me more than anyone else, and it would be a blasphemy to let her commit suicide. "
I also learned the tone of their voices and began to talk about "truth".
However, such words were very popular with the Great Elder and others.
Everyone listened very attentively, and from time to time they would nod their heads, thinking that what I said made a lot of sense.
Of course, the people present are not stupid, and they will not let this matter pass easily because of my wordplay of such a sentence, and they still have to do something.
Finally, the Great Elder said, "What the Holy Lord said makes sense, and since you have spoken, then we can only obey it, and we will not disobey it. However, Tashi's death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped. After all, you have broken the rules, and please punish him, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the people in the future, and no one will take the rules of the clan seriously. "
After listening to it, I also understood what the Great Elder meant.
He could spare Tashi, but he also had to give him a step down. In addition, this is a rule handed down by the guardians of the Yellow River for thousands of years, and it cannot be passed without doing anything, so that others may make mistakes in the future, and they will not be able to manage it at that time.
After all, it is a collective, and there must be rewards and punishments.
