After the death of the sewing corpse, the shaman of the Taya tribe inherited everything he left behind, but he did not inherit the title of god, but called himself the shaman of the god, the priest of the god, the attendant of the god, the spokesman of the god, in short, he could not be a god, because there is only one true god in the world.

The shaman believes that this is the root cause of destruction, that is, people have too much doubt, doubt leads to stagnation, doubt leads to fighting each other, and if you can unify your beliefs, unify your thinking, and lead everyone in one direction, then you can solve all problems.

When the high priest said this, Tang Qianlin seemed to understand, he looked at the high priest and said: "I feel that this is like a conflict between science and superstition, sewing a thousand corpses thinks that everything can be solved by science, while the shaman feels that although science can be created, there are also things that science can't do, science may not be able to eliminate the doubts and panic in people's hearts, but faith can." ”

The high priest thought about Tang Qianlin's words carefully and said, "That's right, that's what it means. ”

Tang Qianlin said: "I understand, but in the end, your ancestor, that is, the shaman, also failed, right?" ”

The high priest said, "Yes, it also failed, even if people unify their minds, have faith, and believe in a single god, they will still face destruction, but my ancestors thought of another way to avoid it, and that is to go to the fourth level, open that door, go in, go back to the past, go to the future." ”

Tang Qianlin said: "According to what you mean, the fourth layer is also the product created by those original people?" ”

The High Priest said, "There is almost no record of the fourth layer left by the Thousand Corpses, because my ancestor once went in with the bronze plate, and he was the only one who went to the future at that time. ”

Tang Qianlin and Ye Da looked at the high priest in amazement.

The high priest said, "You must want to ask me what the future looks like, don't you?" ”

Ye Da nodded: "Yes, what does the future look like?" ”

"It's a pity......," said the High Priest with a wry smile, "even if you take that bronze plate to the future, you will only see part of it." ”

Tang Qianlin asked, "What do you mean?" ”

The high priest said: "Everyone can only see their own future and past, that is to say, you can only intervene in the stage of your own life, but not in the entire historical process, although there is a saying that 'one shot cannot be pulled, the whole body is affected', any event is composed of one person, no one is nothing, but for most people in this world, they are just nutrients in this world, and a little less nutrients are not enough to destroy or change the world." ”

Tang Qianlin said: "Even so, your ancestors still went, right?" ”

The high priest said: "Yes, he went, but after he went, he found that the fourth layer was completely different from the past, it seems that the sewing thousand corpses are deliberately preventing the people who come after them from going, it is like hell, full of all kinds of strange creatures, if you want to get through there, to reach the end, it is more difficult than to ascend to the sky......"

The shaman led his own sacrificial soldiers to conquer the fourth layer, fighting their way to solving problems, and finally reaching the final end after paying a heavy price.

The High Priest stood under the group of unknown things and looked up: "He finally entered, and soon came back, disheartened, and led his sacrificial soldiers to send the bronze plate back to the Snow Sealing Ridge, informing the priests that their next task is very simple, that is, to protect the Shaman's Spirit Palace forever and not let anyone approach." ”

Tang Qianlin said: "However, later, before the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, didn't a priest lead the priests and take away the bronze plate?" ”

The high priest said: "Yes, that is the beginning of everything, it is not a priest, it is just a hunt who knows the truth, this man took the bronze plate, and since then he has disappeared without a trace, as for where he went, where, and what he did, no one knows, so my ancestors began to hide the secrets of the shaman's palace......"

Tang Qianlin said: "You mean, in those places above, what bone temple, the holy city below Hongtutun, etc., these are all the ecstasy arrays you deliberately laid out?" ”

"Those are not places that we have created, but we deliberately linked them with the Shamanic Spirit Palace according to the distribution of the five evil stars, in order to completely connect this place with shamanism, and create an illusion that if you don't study shamanism thoroughly, you can't find the shamanic spirit palace." When the high priest said this, he smiled proudly, "This practice has indeed made many people give up after studying shamanism all their lives. ”

Tang Qianlin asked, "So, what's going on with that Asda under Hongtutun?" ”

The High Priest said, "He does not belong to this world, but only a poor creature who came to this world by chance, and who had to imprison himself because he could not leave. ”

Ye Da realized something: "You mean, in order to cover up this secret, you deliberately created Yi Mochen's entire family?" Their histories are all fake, right? ”

The High Priest replied, "Yes, the whole family is a fiction made up by us, but every generation there will be a person with our blood relationship who is in charge of the overall situation, haven't you noticed?" Yi Mochen's ancestors have not left any photos for generations, and even Yi Mochen himself is very vague about the appearance of his parents, because he has no so-called parents at all, and the main reason why the Yi family exists is to keep an eye on people from different ways. ”

Tang Qianlin nodded and said, "No wonder the Yi family wants to specialize in foreign business, no wonder Yi Mochen wants to become a foreign businessman, this is all planned by you." ”

Ye Dadao: "What about me? What am I? ”

The High Priest looked at Yeda, "You are an insurance policy for us to stay in the outside world. ”

Ye Da was stunned: "Insurance? ”

The high priest said: "At the critical moment, if there is a problem with Yi Mochen, or if he dies, you can replace his identity, and that is inevitable, which is why we designed a drama to hunt you down in the first place." ”

Ye Dadao: "You deliberately asked me to discover Yi Mochen's existence, find that I am exactly the same as him, and then let me slowly accept this fact?" ”

The High Priest said, "This is your reason for being. ”

Ye Da asked, "But, why does he stay in my mind after Yi Mochen dies?" ”

The high priest shook his head: "I don't know this, according to my speculation, it's probably because we were all created from one thing, I am you, you are Yi Mochen, and Yi Mochen is also me." ”

The High Priest said as he raised his finger to the translucent material floating in mid-air, merging and splitting.

Ye Da lost his soul and said: "You mean, me, you, and Yi Mochen were all created by this kind of thing?" ”

The High Priest said, "Yes, we are all so, and that shaman used his body to create us and everything here. ”

Tang Qianlin thought carefully: "Then, why did that bronze plate appear in Liu Mouzheng's hand again?" You seem to know him? ”

The high priest said, "I can only tell you that there was a person who appeared from the door on the fourth floor with a child and fled from here, and that person was Liu Mouzheng. ”

Tang Qianlin was shocked when he heard this: "Then who is the child he took away?" ”

The high priest said, "Then you have to ask him, I just told you everything about this place according to the agreement with him, and then came in exchange for the qualification to go to the fourth layer with him to find the final answer." ”

Tang Qianlin asked, "What do you mean?" ”

The High Priest said: "While we are hiding the secrets of the Shaman's Spirit Palace, we are also constantly trying to find a way to create a perfect world, as I said earlier, the reason why man was created is because the Creator, after creating all things, finally chose man as the master of this world, that is, the god of this world. ”

Tang Qianlin said: "People, are they gods? ”

The high priest said, "Isn't it? In the eyes of other creatures, man is the supreme everything, man can change the environment, he can also destroy the environment, man can do things that other creatures can't, in contrast, man is not God, what is it? Therefore, man himself is the god of this world, if there is a god at all. ”

When the shaman, that is, the first generation of high priests, died, the subsequent high priests continued the work he did not finish, but no matter what they did, they could not achieve their goals, so they began to shift their goal from eternal life to the control of human nature, and in this generation of high priests, he decided to re-enact the history of human development, so he created the mother tree according to the shamanic legend, and let the mother tree begin to create people, make people worship God, and also make people start to question God......

Tang Qianlin finally understood: "Here, you are the high priest, but you also play the role of a god, and at the same time play the demagogic demon Yaluri. ”

The High Priest said, "That's right, that's it, I decided to study how humans really think in the process, and what are the reasons for their doubts?" In the end, I found that people can be controlled, but to be 100% controlled, as the one in control, you have to play both good and evil roles. ”

Tang Qianlin was puzzled: "Why do you have to control it?" ”

The High Priest said, "To prevent humanity from finally going to destruction!" ”

Tang Qianlin shook his head and said: "You obviously know that no one wants to be controlled, you also know that faith is spread by fear, there is oppression and control, there is resistance, the more you hide, the more people will explore the truth, and some problems are simply unsolvable." ”

Ye Da was stunned, still thinking about what he was?

Tang Qianlin's understanding is the same as his usual philosophy, he rejects the theory of gods and ghosts, but he believes that there are indeed unexplained things in this world, just like what he and the high priest are discussing at the moment.

What exactly is life and death?

Can people live forever?

Can eternal life mean not being destroyed?

Is death the same as destruction?

Since there is death, there is new life, so if it is destroyed, will there be a new birth?

In other words, is it possible to resurrect a person after he dies?

Generations of high priests here have struggled and explored this question, but there has never been an answer, so this generation of high priests decided to repeat what the shaman did back then, which was to go to the fourth floor and enter the door with a bronze plate to find the answer.

However, when he went to the Snow Ridge, he found that the bronze plate was missing.
