Chapter 218: The Legend of the Snake God
When the Bora Temple heard that the princess and the Immortal Emperor had arrived, the temple attendants had already lined up at the gate to welcome the two under the leadership of the high priest.
After Mu Sheng took the princess's jade hand and got out of the car, the high priest of the temple came forward with a smile to greet the two.
The high priest, about fifty years old, was elongated with mysterious tattoos on his face, a high hat, and a blue celebratory attire.
Mu Sheng looked at it, isn't this an old acquaintance? He is the high priest who presided over the two wedding snake ceremonies for Mu Sheng, and his ability to control snakes with one hand is superb, and sure enough, the royal face is big enough, and it is impossible for ordinary people to invite him to preside over the wedding of the newlyweds.
The high priest stepped forward with a smile: "Meet the emperor, the old man is the chief priest of the temple here, and the two distinguished guests please enter the temple with the old man to worship." ”
Mu Sheng and the princess followed the high priest to the center of the main hall to worship, and after entering the gate of the temple, the high priest led the two to the center of the temple.
Mu Sheng came all the way, the temple walls, stone pillars are carved with the myths and legends of the snake god, to the place where the main hall presides over the sacrifice, he thought there would be any snake god statue or something, but he didn't expect that the center of the hall is actually a huge Dharma platform, the Dharma platform enshrines a huge snake-shaped demon beast bones, the bones are wrapped with gold leaf layer by layer, and countless bronze oil lamps are placed around the bones of the huge demon beast with golden light, as if to pray for the blessing of the snake god.
It was the first time that Mu Sheng saw that there was no statue in the temple, but the bones of demon beasts were enshrined, anyway, he followed the local customs, so he knelt down with Diamelisa to pray for blessings and pray for the blessing of the snake god.
After the prayer was finished, the high priest came to the two of them, chanting a word, holding a copper bowl, which was sprinkled with some blue powder, and in an instant the water in the copper bowl turned dark blue, and the high priest looked solemn, dipped a wicker in the tong bowl, and sprinkled the words on the heads of the two, and it was all kinds of ceremonial red tape before finally completing the sacrificial ceremony.
Of course, the most important thing is the incense money for the temple, as soon as Diamelissa beckoned, the princess's entourage carried two large boxes of gold and silver and handed them to the high priest's assistants, and the high priest saw that the merit money had arrived, and his face was about to smile into chrysanthemums, and he was even more flattering to the princess and his party......
The high priest stepped forward with a smile and said more respectfully: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness Princess, the Great Emperor has made offerings, and the god Bora has protected you." ”
Mu Sheng glanced at the huge demon beast bones and said with emotion: "High Priest, is this the golden body remains of the god Boluo?" ”
The high priest bowed his head and said: "Hui Yu Emperor, this is indeed the golden remains of the god Borak, and only my royal temple has the real golden body of the god Borro, this golden body we also call the dragon bone, legend has it that the god of Boro ascended and turned into a dragon and sanctified, all over the country of Taisha, there will be countless believers who come here every year to make a pilgrimage. ”
Mu Sheng stared at the golden body and suddenly said, "I see! ”
At this moment, there was a commotion behind the Dharma platform of the main hall, and when the high priest heard this, his face quickly rose solemnly, and he turned his head and knelt down in front of the golden bones with the other assistant priests to pray respectfully.
I saw a giant snake as thick as a bucket swimming behind the Dharma platform, its huge snake body, colorful snake scales, under the illumination of the lights, shining, its body faintly had spiritual power fluctuations, it turned out to be a cultivated transformation period demon beast!
The giant snake swam its body and came towards the two, Mu Sheng saw that it was not hostile, so he didn't take it seriously, the giant snake glanced at the emperor standing beside the princess, spitting out the letter, and the golden pupils showed a slight hint of vigilance.
Seeing this, Diamelisa smiled slightly and said, "Ali, it's okay, he's my husband." ”
After that, the giant snake seemed to understand, and came to Diamelisa for a while, bowed her head slightly, and rubbed Diamelisa affectionately, and the princess also smiled and hugged the head of the giant snake and stroked its smooth scales.
Diamelissa introduced the origin of the giant snake to Mu Sheng: "Husband, its name is Ali, it is one of the guardian spirits of the golden body of the god Boluo, it is said that Ali is also one of the direct descendants of the god of Boluo, and it has been supported here by our royal family, it has been with me since I was a child, I came here to play with it whenever I had the opportunity, but unfortunately the third sister is extremely afraid of Ali, and I don't know why I ......"
Mu Sheng smiled and looked at Diamelisa caressing the giant snake lovingly, this Lisa princess Diamelisa Princess Diamelisa is very strange, as if she was born with a liking for snakes, when she got married, the high priest presided over the snake ceremony, but she was not like her sister, she was not afraid of the snake in her hand, but curiously stroked the poisonous snake, the snake also spit out the letter and rubbed her gently, as if she was her master, maybe it was also the relationship between her and the giant snake since she was a child.
At this time, Diamelissa hugged the giant snake and muttered: "Ali, I will marry away with my husband from now on, and I may never see you again for a long time in the future, will you miss me?" ”
The giant snake can't speak, just spit out the letter and hisses, as if answering the princess's words, although I don't know what to say, but this kind of demon beast in the transformation period has long been enlightened, but it can't turn into a human form, and the giant snake can only use telepathy to talk to Princess Lisa.
When the giant snake heard that Lisa's princess was going to marry away from home, there was a trace of sadness in her eyes, and Princess Lisa had to try to comfort it constantly, and the giant snake turned its head to look at Mu Sheng again, and there seemed to be some resentment in his eyes, and there seemed to be a trace of fear for him.
Mu Sheng stared at its eyes, and could actually read the meaning in its eyes, Ali said: "Princess Lisa's marriage to you is simply a flower inserted into cow dung, which is cheap for you." ”
Mu Sheng laughed, and couldn't help but say to the giant snake: "Ali, don't worry, I will love Princess Lisa well, since she follows me, I will never wronged her." ”
In other words, this time it was the giant snake and Princess Lisa who were stunned on the spot at the same time.
Diamelissa was surprised: "Husband, can you hear Ali's voice?" Ali only used telepathic abilities on me, husband, can you understand? How is this possible? ……”
The serpent's eyes also showed a look of shock.
Although Mu Sheng himself didn't quite understand why, he had to explain to one person and one snake: "Oh! That's right, I saw the look in Ali's eyes, and I instantly understood its meaning. ”
Diamelisa said with a look of disbelief: "It's that simple? ”
Mu Sheng nodded and said, "Yes, it's as simple as that, I can tell what Ali wants to say as soon as I look at his eyes." ”
At this time, the giant snake glared at Mu Sheng unbelievingly, and spit out the snake letter.
Mu Sheng smiled: "Ali, what you said just now, I must have been right, what to pretend to ......"
At this time, the giant snake was so frightened that its neck involuntarily shrank back, turned its head and spit out the snake letter to Diamelissa, and then turned its head slightly to peek at Mu Sheng a few times.
Seeing this, Mu Sheng smiled again: "Ali, you just said to Princess Lisa, is this person a monster?" Could it be that your husband can read minds? ”
This time the giant snake really believed it, but it also tried to curl up the huge snake body behind the petite princess in fear to resist Mu Sheng's sight, Mu Sheng saw that the giant snake was so anthropomorphic, it was really a little ridiculous.
At this time, after Diamelissa hugged the giant snake and comforted her, she also asked with an incredulous face: "Husband, won't you?" Are you the Serpent Whisperer? Even I have to talk to Ali telepathically, and your ability is too rebellious, right? ……”
Mu Sheng spread his hands and said, "I don't know why I have this strange ability, anyway, I can read the meaning of Ah Li as long as I stare into Ali's eyes......"
Speaking of this, Mu Sheng suddenly thought of something, and suddenly realized: "Oh! I see why......"
After that, Mu Sheng took out the python beast tooth magic weapon given to him by the master from his arms and let them see it, and Diamelissa and the giant snake explained: "It may be the effect of the demon beast remnant soul in my body, this python is also a kind of snake demon beast, maybe my ability is inherited from it......"
Mu Sheng concisely explained the origin of the remnant soul of the demon beast to the two of them, and the giant snake and Princess Lisa looked at each other when they heard it.
Hearing this, Diamelissa said, "Is this okay?" Husband, you're too powerful! ”
At this time, the giant snake suddenly turned around, and it took a long time to turn its head and give Mu Sheng an inquiring look.
Mu Sheng smiled: "I know, Ali, I can only read the meaning of your heart when I stare at your eyes, you turn your head, I can't see your eyes, I don't know what you think in your heart." ”
At this time, the serpent made a long-breathing expression...... Otherwise, there will really be no privacy in front of this man in the future, which is terrible......
No one expected this little episode in the middle, and at this time, the giant snake motioned to the princess to take a step to speak, and it didn't want to speak in front of Mu Sheng, so as not to be seen by him again.
Seeing this, Mu Sheng had to smile bitterly and come to the mural of the snake god not far away to study the origin and legend of the snake god, and they needed privacy between one person and one snake......
At this time, the high priest Biroberni walked to the emperor's side with great insight and began to explain to Mu Sheng the legend of the snake god of their Taisha dynasty.
The high priest said: "Thousands of years ago, Taisha was only one of the many tribes in southern Xinjiang, and the female leader Manan Rahman encountered a giant snake when she was out on a parade, and the giant snake was moved by the beauty of the leader, although it was transformed into a man, it was the snake god Boluo, and the two fell in love and became husband and wife. ”
"The snake god Bolo and Manan Rahman and his wife led the tribe to fight in all directions, making the Taisha tribe the most powerful one of the tribes in southern Xinjiang, and then Manang Laman died, but her husband the snake god Bo Luo is still alive, the snake god Bo Luo was recommended as the leader of the Tai Sha tribe, the snake god Bo Luo in the human world after the completion of the practice of the tribulation, the dragon flew away, the Taisha tribe to commemorate its merits, for the Bo Luo to build a temple sacrifice, the legend of the Taisha royal family is the snake god Bo Luo and Manan Rahman descendants, this golden skeleton is the Taisha royal family donated to the temple... …”
After listening to the high priest's explanation, Mu Sheng glanced at the golden skeleton again, and guessed a little in his heart, in fact, this so-called snake god was a snake demon beast that turned into a human form in ancient times!
He turned his head again to see the intimacy between Diamelissa and the giant snake named Ali, it seems that this Taisha royal family may really be the descendants of the snake god, but Mu Sheng is a little curious about whether the demon beast and the human can produce offspring? There is no record of this in the Taoist scriptures......
The record of this kind of thing in the Taoist Sutra is only four words, "Shemales have different paths", and there is no follow-up......
