Chapter 357: Faith and the Golden Thread
"What about your fathers and prophets? Wu Ming's solemn voice continued to maintain, Yue'er made two plans for Wu Ming, if the patriarch and the prophet knew each other, then let them go for the time being, if they had evil intentions, then Wu Ming would expose their guilt as a god.
After a long time, no one responded, Wu Ming pondered, could it be that the special effects he performed were too shocking, and the patriarch and the prophet no longer dared to reveal their identities?" "It's okay, come out, patriarch and prophet." Wu Ming repeated, but after waiting for a while, there still seemed to be no response, which made Wu Ming's face a little unbearable, but just when Wu Ming seemed to be about to get angry, a man in the spear regiment stood up, "Respected gods, your glory is with us." ”
"Put your name on it. "Wu Ming was a little embarrassed, the two people I shouted, and one of them came out, wouldn't it be very shameless to give face? But forget it, if you compete now, many things will not be negotiated.
"Picasso, this is my name," the man said loudly and politely, "I am the deputy head of the spear regiment. ”
What...... It's not the patriarch, it's not the prophet, could it be that the two of them aren't here? Aren't these special effects done by himself in vain? Wu Ming's purpose of claiming to be a god is to deter these two people, and now that the person who can be in charge is not there, it will be troublesome, and he has been a light bulb for so long in vain.
"Just now, the walls collapsed, and the patriarch and the prophet did not escape and were buried alive in the rubble...... Picasso choked up.
Wu Ming almost choked when he heard it, if it had just happened, it was estimated that the collapse of the city wall was related to the leap of the Hagrid giant elephant, although it destroyed the giant ant colony, but also destroyed the city wall, "This ...... Of course I know that, because it'...... That's divine punishment! Yes, that's right, it's divine punishment, and the two of them are guilty! This matter was originally deliberately arranged by God. ”
In a tone that seemed to have been premeditated for a long time, Wu Ming continued: "So the patriarch I just mentioned is you, because your courage is commendable, so you are now the patriarch. As for who the prophet he just mentioned was, Wu Ming completely ignored it.
Zheng Xianyue heard that she was holding her forehead with one hand, Wu Ming was going to forcibly find the bottom of the stairs, and what was the matter with finding a patriarch casually, this was beyond the script he gave him.
Hearing the words of the "gods", most of the people of the tribe showed an incredible expression on their faces, how could this be possible, at least in their opinion, the patriarch and the prophet had done many things for the tribe.
Picasso was a little puzzled, but since Wu Ming had already designated him as the patriarch, all the clansmen did not dare to disobey the will of the "gods", and they all respected Picasso as the new patriarch.
However, in order to dispel everyone's doubts, Wu Ming weaved a whole set of lies on the spot, saying that the original patriarch and the prophet colluded with the evil god to harm the believers for personal gain, etc., and even gave the evil god a name, calling it the giant ant evil god, when he said this name, Wu Ming thought for a while, this casually made up villain evil god seems to be not very reliable, and it looks a bit like a fake when you hear it.
However, to Wu Ming's surprise, the people of these tribes actually believed that there was a giant ant evil god, otherwise why did these giant ants often harm human beings, could it be because they were assigned by the giant ant evil god?
"In that case, please continue to protect us, if you are not here, won't that giant ant evil god be going to ...... us" Picasso thought of the giant ant colony of the same size before, and had the heart to get rid of it, but his strength was insufficient, "Please forgive us for our lack of strength, we really have no way to protect ourselves." ”
"Of course I will protect you, my devout believers," Wu Ming said solemnly, "your faith is the source of my divine power. In order to express the close connection between himself and the believers, Wu Ming even showed a series of thin golden lines.
These thin threads were faintly connected to the bodies of everyone present, and the golden threads shimmered with a strange luster like flowing liquid, "Do you see that these golden threads are evidence of your close connection with me, what are these golden threads, they are the divine power generated by your faith heart, I need to rely on your faith in me to defeat the evil god." ”
Wu Ming said, normally most people have such a mentality. Just like a group of people who fall into a deep pit and cannot climb out, if a slightly capable person appears and tries to climb out of the pit, even if his purpose is to climb up and then turn back to save people, it will be very easy to become the object of verbal criticism in the eyes of "righteous men and gentlemen".
Why can even people who don't have much intersection with each other in ordinary times be able to scold so badly? Because the people in the pit are afraid, afraid that the person who climbs out of the pit will never come back once he climbs out, then the last trace of contact will be broken, and the person who climbs out will enjoy the blessings alone.
What Wu Ming is doing now is to maintain this connection, to let the people of the tribe know that although he is a high "god", his "god" and the "believers" are grasshoppers on a rope, and there is a supply and demand relationship between the two.
"My devout believers," Wu Ming said again, "in order to protect you, I will leave my five oracles, they are my eyes, the lucky ones I have chosen, so please be kind to them, and when you are in danger, I will see through their eyes and come to your rescue." ”
Wu Ming returned to the "script" left by Yue'er, and the five divine envoys he was talking about were Xia Mu, Jing Mu, Lu Xiaohu, Yu Sheng, Keke and other five people, only by naming these five people as "divine envoys" could they better protect them.
The people of the tribe raised their heads one after another, wanting to look at the faces of the five divine envoys, but when they looked at the two familiar people, Lu Xiaohu and Yu Sheng, their eyes were already full of envy.
However, Mr. Jackson, who was with the two of them, does not seem to have returned, but even if he thinks about it, it is a great blessing to meet the gods and be chosen by the gods, and Mr. Jackson is so smart that he may have arrived in another world to enjoy the blessings first.
