Chapter 425 Necronomical Paradise

At this moment, Anubis waved his hand again, and another boat appeared on the lake. It was a large, ornate black-and-gold ship that looked like an enlarged version of the reed ship. The bow and stern were still raised high, with two arms stretched out to the sky, and the narrow and slender hull was only large enough to accommodate two rows of paddle soldiers.

In the center of the ship is a pavilion made of ebony and pure gold, carved with various sacred beasts. The top of the pavilion is molded in the shape of a giant golden jackal's head. Manifesting the glory of Anubis.

Anubis landed lightly at the stern of the ship and bowed to wait. High Dive jumped onto the bow of the boat. The big black and gold boat carried the weight of two people, and it didn't even shake it. Then, without seeing Anubis make any move, the two boats slowly turned around and drifted towards the glowing center of the lake.

At this moment, in the eyes of the high diver, Lake Nasser in the moonlight is like a silver satin, and the two boats, one large and one small, glide silently on the star-covered brocade, as smooth and silent as grease. The cool lake breeze on the water brought the clear smell of the Nile, and the waves were silently pushed away on both sides of the boat, and the stars in the water were like churning broken silver.

He looked at the reed boat on one side. The little man and the bald fat man clung to the bow of the boat, as if trying to see something. Gao Qian looked in their direction, and saw only a gauzy haze, and a quiet water.

"What are they looking at?"

"They'll see what they want to see. Anubis waved his hand again, as if brushing away the white veil in front of him, and another scene appeared in front of the high dive. This time, the high dive saw what those bald fat men and little men saw.

It was an unpretentious courtyard, like the ordinary houses on the streets of Egypt. The houses are not big, they are next to each other. Most of the houses are lit up, and some are pitch black.

In the courtyard, you can see a figure shaking, it looks like people are living in the world, some of them are eating, some are cleaning the courtyard, some are drying clothes, and they don't seem to be aware of the peeps of Gao Qian and others, sometimes their eyes will unconsciously cross the two boats, their eyes are empty, and they do not stop.

"They're necromancy?"

"It's the pre-reincarnation necromancer. Anubis replied, "They are here waiting to pass through the Gate of Reincarnation." ”

"How long will it take?" asked the high dive.

"Until they are willing to leave. Anubis held out his slender finger and pointed to one place, "The person they are looking for is there." ”

Gao Qian followed Anubis's long fingers, and he saw a middle-aged woman, dressed in a light-colored linen robe, with black hair tied at the side of her face, pushing a wheel-sized millstone with a focused expression, and as the mill turned, pale yellow wheat flour gushed out of the stone trough.

After a few moments, the woman seemed tired, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and looked out into the courtyard. Gao Qian saw the bald fat man and the little man crying silently by the side of the boat.

"Why hasn't she left yet?"

"Because of concern. Anubis said in a deep voice, "All the dead spirits who have passed the scale of fairness can pass through the gate of reincarnation. But some of the necromancers do not want to leave, but linger outside the gate of rebirth.

After the cataclysm, the Three Realms merged, and although the door of reincarnation was still open, these necromancers were no longer content to wander around the door, and they began to search for their past relatives or try to fulfill their unfulfilled wishes. ”

Gao Qian imagined the world full of wandering dead spirits, and felt that the hairs on his body stood on end.

"How can this work? ”

"Of course not, so I came back here and restrained the necromancy. ”

"Why don't you send them to the dead?"

Anubis was silent for a moment: "Master, do you see the fertile fields by the lake? This is almost impossible in a post-cataclysmic world.

Every day new believers come here, some for these dead spirits, some for a peaceful life.

Do you see the green light that flickers in the fields? It is the goddess of fertility who dutifully guards the land. Although there are only more than 5,000 inhabitants and few beliefs in the goddess of abundance, the power generation sets of the Aswan Dam make up for the lack of energy. And a steady stream of believers joined in, and the land prospered rapidly.

So, Master, we can now provide a better life for our people, and this Necronomical Paradise is the fastest way I can think of to gather the faithful. ”

At this time, Gao Qian saw the woman in the courtyard, and suddenly ran to the courtyard gate, grabbed the railing of the courtyard gate, stood on tiptoe, as if looking forward, on her left side, a boat made of reeds was moored, and she was looking in the other direction completely. Her mouth opened and closed as if she were saying something, but the high dive couldn't hear anything. The little man and the bald fat man on the soul ferry boat obviously couldn't either. They hissed and shouted, and their voices drifted along the surface of the lake.

The woman and the soul boat are obviously close at hand, but they are separated from two worlds. The line between life and death seems light, but it is eternal.

"The dead and the living cannot talk. Anubis pointed lightly, and the ship swayed backwards.

The woman inside the courtyard gate seemed to feel the departure of the soul ferry, and fell to the ground crying in pain.

"Can she detect the existence of the Soul Ferry but can't?" Gao Qian said in surprise.

"If the mind of the living is strong enough, it can be felt, heard, and seen by the dead. But they can't communicate, and that's the difference between the living and the dead. ”

"That's why she won't go through the Gate of Reincarnation?"

Anubis nodded slowly and heavily.

Gao Qian suddenly remembered the words of the old Nile boatman: "The dead have a place for the dead, and the thoughts of the living are their heaviest chains." High Potential muttered.

"Master?" Anubis looked at the high dive.

"Anubis, they are the reason why the necromancers can't pass through the Gate of Reincarnation, and you're taking advantage of their feelings. ”

"Yes, master, I am indeed using these necromantic spirits to attract the faithful, but that is not my real purpose in setting up the Necromantic Paradise. ”

"Oh?"

High Dive looked at Anubis, who raised his finger and pointed in the other direction.

"Master, please see, those are the real reasons why I set up the Necronomical Paradise. ”

The big black and gold ship under Gao Qian's feet slowly turned, and the mist in front of Gao Qian dispersed, and he saw another scene.
