Chapter 251: Baptism
Five years ago.
This is in a small mountain village, that is, the place where the emperor clan has lived for generations.
The small mountain village is full of laughter, and the only difference between this and the rest of the mountain villages is that the beasts and the emperor's clan live in harmony.
Here, you can see all kinds of rare beasts, and even the holy beasts wander lazily among the fields, and the clansmen of the Emperor Clan do not resist the beasts, and even greet each other.
Children are always keen to mingle and frolic with the beasts, the men chop wood and cultivate the land, the women pound clothes and weave, and in the closed mountain villages, their way of life is very old.
"Zhipeng, I haven't seen you in a few days. ”
In the field, Pan Zhipeng slept lazily on the ground, and a golden bull slowly approached him.
Looking closely, this golden bull is very similar to Pan Zhipeng's time, but in comparison, it is older and stronger.
It is Shi Tian's father, and his name is Shi Cang, a seven-grade dream beast, and it is a particularly rare golden astringent cow.
"Shicang, when can I leave here?" Pan Zhipeng's eyes were longing.
Shi Cang stood behind him, shielding him from the blazing sun, "Soon, there are still three years, you will be able to break through the ground level and become a long-cherished master, and at that time, the patriarch and elders will let you go out and have a good experience." ”
"Great, then the time will be my son. Pan Zhipeng is looking forward to that moment.
Shi Cang smiled, "It's best that you can become Shi Tian's host. ”
"Shicang, listen to my father and mother, every member of our Emperor Clan will have a piece of power, and the power that only belongs to our Emperor Clan, right?"
"It's not so much power as glory. ”
"Glory?"
"Yes, only the glory of the Emperor's family. ”
"And when can I have it?"
"I don't know, it could be a few days, or a few months, a few years, it all depends on your own creation. ”
.. .. ..
Time passed slowly, it seemed that it was only a blink of an eye, he was already approaching the age of sixteen, and his cultivation was about to break through the ground level and become a long-cherished master.
"Hey, Zhipeng, today is the day of your baptism, hurry up. ”
"Xiao Shitian, why are you here, my father?"
"Your father and mother have already gone to prepare, you hurry up, the day of baptism is the day when I become your son, the day you become your master. ”
"I'll get up. ”
After busy preparing for a while, Pan Zhipeng and Xiao Shitian rushed to the altar in the mountain village together.
The altar is circular in shape, and on all sides stands a stone pillar with the sun and a half-naked man carved on it, which seems to be fighting and lingering.
"It's coming, it's coming. ”
A woman on the altar was overjoyed, and her eyes were fixed on the young man who had arrived.
She is Pan Zhipeng's mother, and next to her stands a middle-aged man with a slightly serious face, who is undoubtedly Pan Zhipeng's father.
The people of the Emperor clan are scarce, so on the day when every member of the clan is baptized and becomes a master, all the clansmen will come to the altar to congratulate him.
On the altar, there stood a woman with a white veil on her face, her face could not be seen clearly, but the aura emanating from her body was extremely strong, she was the patriarch of the Emperor Clan, Di Yidie.
Under her, there are three old men, that is, the three elders of the Emperor Clan, although they are old, their looks are not inferior to their prime.
The people around the altar were all members of the Emperor Clan, as well as hundreds of long-term beasts, and their eyes looked at Pan Zhipeng and Shi Tian who were rushing quickly.
"Zhipeng, Shitian, you don't hurry up, we have been waiting for a while. Shi Cang urged loudly, it was a seventh-grade Saint-Rank peak beast, and its prestige in the Emperor Clan was not weaker than that of the three major elders.
Pan Zhipeng and Shi Tian are still young, and they have not experienced such a grand scene, so they are more or less timid in their hearts.
Standing in the center of the altar, helpless.
Di Yidie spoke: "Zhipeng, before you are baptized, please allow me to ask you three questions. ”
Her voice was soft and loud, like the sound of an eagle and the song of a phoenix.
Pan Zhipeng looked at her, "Patriarch, may I ask." ”
"Emperor Clan, what is the most important thing?"
Pan Zhipeng didn't think twice and asked: "It's bloodline." ”
"Why blood?"
He replied: "The people of the Emperor Clan are all descendants of the gods, so the clan rules have a covenant, and the generations of the Emperor Clan are not allowed to love each other with the outside world, for fear of insulting the blood of the gods. ”
"What would you do if you fell in love with a mortal?"
He replied categorically: "I will not love people from the outside world, if I have, I will insult the ancient saints and the blood of the gods, I should self-destruct and cultivate, cut off my bloodline, and commit suicide." ”
"Good!"
Hearing this, whether it was the clansmen of the Emperor Clan or the beasts from all walks of life, they praised it one after another.
Di Yidie smiled with relief and said, "Obviously, you already have the conditions for baptism, then, we can start." ”
Then, Di Yidie's hands sank and lifted up, as if holding a boulder, her face suddenly changed and hideous, as if she was suffering great pain.
The eight stone pillars on the altar exude a dazzling golden light, competing with the golden crow hanging in the sky.
Gradually, the depiction on the stone pillar danced, and the half-naked man seemed to control the sun in his hand, wantonly destroying and killing.
"How so?"
"Why is it different? Shouldn't God use the sun to shine on the earth? Why has God become so cruel?"
"Stop, or the consequences will be dire. ”
The clansmen and beasts around the altar were talking, and they all showed surprised and frightened eyes.
Ning Guo, one of the three elders, stood up and said, "This child is a cursed body, he can't be baptized, otherwise our Emperor Clan will be destroyed!"
The people under the altar asked, "Cursed body, what curse?"
Ning Guo explained, "When I was young, I was stumbling upon a forbidden book that depicted the scene of the stone pillar at this time, and this child was the cursed body, and he should never be baptized. ”
As a last resort, Di Yidie stopped, and the light on the stone pillar also dissipated.
She said in a deep voice: "It is impossible for the cursed body to come to Pan Zhipeng for no reason, my clan... .. There are internal thieves. ”
Ning Guo denied: "Our Emperor Clan has existed in the world for thousands of years, and no one has ever betrayed our clan, it must be that this kid strayed into the forbidden land of our clan and got into trouble with some evil things." ”
Pan Zhipeng hurriedly shook his head, "I didn't! You framed me!"
"I can make a guarantee, my son will definitely not enter my clan's forbidden land by mistake, let alone provoke any evil things, Elder Ning Guo, don't spew blood!"
"Yes, someone must have done something to Zhipeng to get this curse, and I hope that the baptism ceremony will be postponed, so please ask the patriarch to investigate this matter thoroughly, so as to give Zhipeng justice." ”
Pan Zhipeng's father and mother unanimously stood on his side and interceded for him.
