Volume 14 Chapter 49 The Mysterious Moon Shadow God

At this moment, in front of the island of Dead Waters, the forbidden mountain that is feared by countless people......

Countless outposts have turned on their searchlights at this moment, illuminating the surroundings of the Forbidden Mountain from time to time.

In each outpost, there are a large number of Qi Cultivators stationed.

At this time...... In a certain outpost, at the highest level, a middle-aged man and a middle-aged man stood there, observing the Forbidden Mountain.

The middle-aged man was holding a pair of binoculars, observing the situation in the Forbidden Mountain.

"How?" The middle-aged man next to the middle-aged man showed an uneasy look: "We? ”

"It's not wonderful." The middle-aged man's expression was very grim, he put down the binoculars, and said, "In recent years, the seals set up by Lord Divine Officials on the Forbidden Mountain with the power of Moon Shadow have shown signs of instability. Tonight is the Bone Night Festival, and the situation is even more ......"

"So, will you go and report to the priest right away?"

"Tonight is the Bone Night Festival, don't disturb Lord Priest just yet."

The middle-aged man swallowed a mouthful of saliva and hesitated for a long time before asking, "Stationmaster Yu...... I've been working here for five years and I've been working here since I graduated from Hongluo Academy...... But I still don't understand......"

"What the hell is there in the Forbidden Mountain? Stationmaster Yu, do you know? ”

Stationmaster Yu's hand holding the telescope was also trembling slightly.

"I ...... too I don't know. It's just, it's definitely something terrible. In any case, we must assist the priest, and we must not let the seal break! Absolute! ”

Then, in a voice that only he could hear, he said to himself, "How long can this island last?" ”

This outpost. It is the closest one to the Lunaris Temple.

Lunaris Temple. It is a place of pilgrimage on the island of Dead Waters. Every Lunaris worshipper. No one will come here for the pilgrimage. However, under normal circumstances, parents do not let their children arrive before the age of twenty, after all, the Temple of the Moon Shadow is at the foot of the Forbidden Mountain.

The Temple of the Moon Shadow is home to priests and four of the island's best Qi practitioners, arguably the five most noble priests under the Moon Shadow God. status, like the Pope and Cardinal of the Holy See! All public servants of the Island Office. The priest can be appointed and dismissed at will with just one word, and it can be said that he has supreme power.

"There's a priest here...... Should...... It shouldn't matter, right? ”

Stationmaster Yu then breathed a sigh of relief and said to the middle-aged man: "Wu Xiu, continue to monitor, and as soon as the Bone Night Festival is over, we will immediately go to see Lord Priest." ”

"Yes! Stationmaster Yu! ”

The island, on this night, is destined to be sleepless nights. I don't know how many people have drawn ghost cards, and I don't know how many people have ...... because of this And face the curse.

I don't even know...... How frightened are these people who are fighting in the outposts of the Forbidden Mountain. Spend the night.

And at this moment, inside the Temple of Lunaris.

The deepest part of the temple......

At this moment. A young man in a brocade robe is sitting upright in front of a futon. In front of him was a ten-meter-tall statue of the Moon Shadow!

This is the largest statue of the god that has bloomed on Dead Water Island!

And at this moment, the brocade-robed man suddenly opened his eyes!

He couldn't help but look at the Lunaris statue in front of him.

The Lunaris Idol is always facing away from everyone. But because of this, this statue is even more awe-inspiring.

The brocade-robed man looked at the Moon Shadow Statue in front of him, and after a long time, he slowly spoke.

"Celestial Stars!"

As soon as the words fell, the door behind him was gently opened, and a young man knelt there, and said softly, "Lord Priest, what do you command?" ”

"There's something I want you to do."

The young man named Tian Yongxing nodded and replied, "Please speak." ”

"The woods south of Centertown, go there and do what you have to do."

This sentence made Tian Yongxing very stunned.

"Priest, tonight is ...... Bone Night Festival ......"

You know, a word from the priest is a categorical order! Under normal circumstances, the order of the priest, Tian Yongxing would never be able to question it.

"Do what you have to do."

The priest just said that.

"Yes...... Priest. ”

The will of the priest is the will of the Moon Shadow, there is no doubt about that. Therefore, his command cannot be disobeyed.

Tian Yongxing didn't say anything more, and slowly retreated.

The priest looked at the idol in front of him and was silent.

At this time, Ye Xiang could no longer get the information about Jiang Shuyan's life and death. He no longer had any ability to resist, only to fight to the death. However, this struggle is also meaningless.

Even, consciousness has begun to gradually blur, and eventually, he completely fainted.

After fainting, his consciousness began to drift into the void.

"Xu Yun, you see, this is the Moon Shadow God who guards our Deadwater Island."

This is...... Xu Yun's memory?

In my memory, the first time I saw the statue of the Moon Shadow God, I felt a strong sense of fear. Always with your back to your own image.

"Daddy...... This idol is reversed? ”

"Xu Yun, don't talk nonsense!"

Xu Ying immediately covered Xu Yun's mouth and whispered, "Don't talk nonsense, the statue of the Moon Shadow God is like this. ”

"Huh? But...... What about the front of the idol? ”

"All the carved gods on the island are only carved out of the back. However, when the Moon Shadow Festival comes in the future, the Moon Shadow God will turn his body around. ”

"What?"

For a child, this is a terrible thing.

Since this statue has not carved the front of the statue, it ...... Why does this idol turn around to reveal the front of its body? Isn't that ridiculous?

However, the words of parents are never doubted by their children.

This was the initial impression that Moon Shadow gave him.

"Also, Xu Yun, you remember, you must become a Qi Practitioner. Becoming a clergyman who serves the Lunaris God for the rest of their lives is the greatest honor of our family. ”

"Qi Practitioner?"

"If you become a Qi Practitioner, you will be able to communicate with the Moon Shadow God. For example, the order not to enter the Forbidden Mountain was learned through the will of the Lunaris God. ”

From that day on, Moon Shadow became the only god Xu Yun could trust and pray. And this belief has become Xu Yun's greatest dependence to survive so far.

And on this island, everyone almost depends on the Moon Shadow God for survival. It can be said that people's daily lives are almost impossible to leave the moon shadow.

For example, Deadwater Island is an isolated island that has nothing to do with the outside of the island, so it develops a self-sufficient natural economy, the monetary economy is not the mainstream, agriculture is the foundation, and even has the same tendency as the ancient feudal society to "emphasize agriculture and suppress commerce". On this island, grain is the absolute hard currency. Therefore, once the agricultural harvest is not good, the consequences are unimaginable. Therefore, every year, the island office asks Lunaris which land to plant, which crops to plant, which days when the weather is good, and whether there will be a major drought in the next few years, and if there is a drought, it is necessary to reserve food years in advance. At the same time, how to carry out the reform of agricultural technology, how to obtain a bumper harvest with maximum yield, without exception, need to ask the Moon Shadow.

And whatever Moon Shadow gives the answer, there is no mistake. So over the years, Dead Water Island has been experiencing a bumper harvest and has never experienced a crisis of food shortage. You must know that the island and the surrounding waters are unable to develop animal husbandry and fishing due to the phenomenon of the death of living beings, so agriculture is the lifeblood and foundation of this island. The people live on food, and Moon Shadow guarantees the fundamental livelihood of all people on this island, so everyone respects Moon Shadow like a god, so they absolutely abide by the orders of the Moon Shadow God like the "Bone Night Festival", and dare not violate them at all. In addition, the people of the island, if they want to calculate the future, or if they are confused about work and love, they will go to the Temple of the Moon Shadow to seek answers. Therefore, the Temple of the Moon Shadow burns incense all year round.

However, in fact, the Moon Shadow God does not just herald the "Festival of the Bone Night". In addition, they will also pass through the Temple of the Moon Shadow on weekdays and issue an "oracle". The "Bone Night Festival" is not the most famous of them.

But......

What kind of god is the so-called "Moon Shadow God"?

Just as Ye Xiang's consciousness sank into deeper darkness, he suddenly felt a strong hand grip on him, and then ...... Drag him out of the deep darkness! (To be continued......)
