Chapter 479: Two-Faced God
Tian Ji said that he burned the fire here, but he felt that it didn't matter, those Yin Witches were rampant, it was nothing more than because he relied on the Witch Gu King, and it would be useless to burn this place, the Witch Gu King had been silent for a thousand years and suddenly appeared, and he would not be blatant if he was not completely sure. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
I think of the Youdu Altar, no one knows where that place is, but if the Witch Gu King is still alive, of course he will know, if I guess correctly, the Witch Gu King should be at the Youdu Altar now, so it looks like Wen Ru should be there too.
Very regretful that he killed the yin witch on impulse in Dunan, otherwise he might be able to find out something from her mouth, when leaving, Tian Ji looked at a cluster of dense grass, which grew a little strangely, he curiously used his machete to open the grass and trees, and found that under the cover of those trees and vines was a stone statue.
It took us a long time to clean up before we saw the whole picture of the statue, to be exact, it should be a statue of a god, and there was no sense of majesty and solemnity, perhaps in this eerie dense forest, the statue looked hideous and terrifying.
There was not only one such idol, but on the opposite side we found another idol that was exactly the same, and after going around the statue, I found that the idol had two identical sides.
"What is this?" I turned to the high priest.
"This is the idol of the Witch King." The High Priest explained.
Huang Ping was angry, picked up a stone and was about to smash it, but I grabbed him, I looked at the idol in front of me again, frowned and asked, "Didn't the Witch Gu King use the skeleton unicorn as a symbol, how could there be such a god statue?" ”
"The Witch King was just a priest at the beginning, although he had a high status in the clan, he was just an ordinary person after all, but after he later claimed to be the Witch Gu King, he was endowed with divinity by believers and diehard loyalists and became a god, and it is rumored that the Witch King has two sides after becoming a god." The high priest said to me in a low voice. Therefore, believers also refer to him as a two-faced god.
"Two-faced God?" Tian Ji was stunned for a moment, looked at the statue and said in surprise. "He can think of it, it's two-sided, why not three-sided? Isn't it just like Chi You, who can have three heads and six arms. ”
"No, since the Witch Gu King is using the divinity of the ancestral god, he will not casually shape his own image, there must be a reason why he is called a two-faced god." Gong Jue said thoughtfully.
"How do I feel familiar?" Xue Xinrou had been looking carefully around the two statues, talking to herself, while taking out a note to draw the statues, and suddenly the pen was suspended. "These two idols are symmetrical!"
"Demon Country!" Ye Jiuqing suddenly realized. "The magic kingdom we see in the mural, the statues and stone pillars inside are also symmetrical, just like here."
"Twin Cities of the Demon Kingdom." I also reacted that the idols here were not only the same as the opposites, but also symmetrical to each other, and I hurriedly asked the high priest. "The Demon Kingdom is called the Holy Kingdom by you, I can understand and understand this, because the ancestral gods are in the Demon Kingdom, but why, that place should be called the Demon Kingdom Twin Cities?"
The high priest shook his head, the inheritance of that history should be completed by the Witch Gu King, but the record of the Demon Kingdom is completely blank, except for knowing that this place exists, everything else is not clear.
"Everything the Witch Gu King does is to emulate the ancestral gods, including the statues here are also the same as the demon kingdom, but Emperor Qin built a temple, and there was no symmetrical statue and stone pillar before the Western Jin Dynasty, so it can be seen that these things only appeared after the ancestral god woke up from the temple." I walked back and forth a few steps and said. "That is to say, the ancestral gods in the Demon Kingdom have done other things besides creating alien witches who can continue their lives, and this incident has a great impact, resulting in the appearance of symmetrical statues and stone pillars, and the temple has also become a twin city of the Demon Kingdom."
"What did the ancestral god do in the Demon Kingdom?" Tian Ji asked confusedly.
"The behavior of the Witch Gu King has always been imperceptibly influenced by the ancestral gods, and there will be no two-faced gods for no reason, there must be some connection between them." Gong Jue said with a calm face.
"There have also been double-faced gods in archaeology, such as the statue of the two-faced god found in the ruins of ancient Rome, and in general, the two-faced god has a philosophical meaning, the so-called two-faced, one side is to look at the past, remember the failures and lessons, and the other side is to look to the future." Xue Xinrou looked up at us while thinking. "You say, the two-faced gods of the Twin Cities of the Demon Kingdom and the Witch King imply that the gods can see everything omnipotently?"
Huang Ping stepped forward and said loudly: "I'm a rough person, not as much as you think, if the ancestral god is in the demon country, in order to continue life, if I am a god, where can I have the leisure to care about the past and the future These nonsense things, can I say that what twin city statues are, it is estimated that the descendants of Jiuli have collapsed." ”
"Presumptuous, as a Miao person, you are so disrespectful to God!" The high priest shouted loudly.
Huang Ping didn't dare to make a mistake in front of the high priest, but I smiled: "The words are not rough, I don't think what he said is wrong." ”
"Ah, you also think that these statues have no specific meaning?" Xue Xinrou was taken aback.
I rubbed my forehead and said unhurriedly, the ancestral god stayed in the demon kingdom, and did not hesitate to give up the pursuit of the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace, just to create a strange witch that could continue life, it can be seen that the ancestral god is not immortal, and the continuation of life was imminent at that time.
It can be said that the ancestral god is completely racing against time, and even the Nine Dragons of the Moon Palace, which has been chasing for thousands of years, can be temporarily abandoned, how can there be time to get any symmetrical statues and stone tablets, it can be seen that the appearance of the Twin Cities of the Demon Kingdom is made by the descendants of Jiuli.
But it can't be said that it's completely meaningless, there must always be something for the descendants of Jiuli to erect these things of symmetry, that is, in the process of creating strange witches, something must have happened, and this time the descendants of Jiuli created the Twin Cities of the Demon Kingdom.
"Two-Faced God...... Double-sided?! Gong Jue suddenly raised his head. Do you remember the corpse of the priest we saw in the coffin of the ancient tomb of Leishan? ”
My eyes lit up, it was two corpses sewn together back to back, and it was not simply stitched up after death, and it was not difficult to see from the back of the corpse that the priest was also like a conjoined deformity during his lifetime.
I imagined what the priest would have looked like when he was still alive, and then I looked at the stone statue opposite, which was probably the prototype of the two-faced god, a monster with two bodies.
"The owner of the ancient tomb is a believer in the Witch Gu King, which means that the priest is emulating the Witch Gu King, could it be that the Witch Gu King is also double-faced?!" The palace lord was taken aback.
"What kind of person is this, he actually sewed himself and others together, and he really paid enough money to be a god, but he was quite capable of arcing people." Tian Ji said disdainfully.
"I'm afraid it's not that simple." I said with a frown.
Everything the Witch King did was to imitate the ancestral gods, from the moment he turned his back on the gods and left the witches without permission, what the Witch King cared about was no longer power and domination, what he wanted was eternal life, how could a person who went all out to be like the gods first, how could he waste time on these demagogic tricks.
"Then why is the priest in the ancient tomb two people stitched together, the Witch Gu King is imitating the ancestral god, and his diehard loyalists are not following suit......" Ye Jiuqing suddenly said in the middle of speaking, and his mouth slowly opened in shock. Don't...... Could it be that the Witch King himself is double-faced! ”
"The Witch Gu King should be a normal person, and the appearance of the Demon Kingdom Twin Cities should still be related to the witch." I replied with a frown.
"The one who stitched it together?!" Huang Ping looked stunned next to him, and his expression didn't seem to be shocked by the two-faced man.
"What do you know?" Ye Jiuqing asked.
Huang Ping said uneasily, he remembered an incident many years ago, when a Chu tomb was poked out in Jiangxi, at that time he was still alone, taking advantage of the darkness to steal the hole, at the beginning it was smooth, and he found a lot of good goods in the tomb.
"That was the time when I almost put my life on the line." Huang Ping said with palpitations.
"What, there's something strange in the tomb?" Tian Ji asked.
"The tomb is an ordinary Chu tomb, the specifications are not high, I was alone at that time, and I couldn't explore the big tomb, and the small fight was nothing more than trying to eat."
"How can that be dangerous?" The palace lord was also curious.
"At that time, I had just entered the industry, and I had nothing but the guts, and when I went down from the robbery hole, I tied the rope to the rock, but I checked to confirm, but I didn't know that before I went to the tomb, it rained heavily for several days, and the soil layer under the rock was loose, and I planned to come up when I ......."
"You don't want to die, the ground is wet and the mountains can't go down to the tomb, this is something that all beginners should know, you dare to break ground in such a place." Ye Jiuqing only shook his head and smiled bitterly when he heard Huang Ping say it halfway. "Needless to say, when you plan to come up, the soil layer that fixes the mountain stone is loose, and the person does not go up, but pulls the stone down, and the heavy rain penetrates into the robbery hole is not solid, and if it is smashed by the stone again, the robbery hole will collapse."
"Brother Ye, you are right, I was stunned at the time, fortunately the tomb did not collapse, otherwise I would have been buried alive in it on the spot."
"And how did you get out?" I asked.
"That's what I'm going to say, when the tomb was buried, I thought I was dead, but who knew that the tomb wall in the Chu tomb collapsed because of serious water seepage, and I actually found the passage exposed behind the tomb wall."
"There is still a secret passage in the Chu tomb?" Ye Jiuqing asked with interest.
"It's not a secret way, but later I realized that there is another tomb next to the Chu tomb, and these two places were built at different times, but they are side by side by mistake."
When Huang Ping said this, he subconsciously squirmed his Adam's apple, looking at his expression with uneasiness, it should have been a long time ago, and I was surprised by what was in that tomb, so that Huang Ping recalled that he was still so panicked until now.
After a long time, Huang Ping licked the corners of his mouth and said in a low voice: "I have never regretted anything in my life, the only thing I regret is that I shouldn't walk into that ancient tomb by mistake......"
