Chapter 1002: The gods are nothing but that
Crushing the bull-headed god, the metal machinery on Lucius's arm gradually subsided, and he moved his somewhat numb hands twice, looking around, his gaze sweeping over everyone present, including the twin god brothers and sisters.
Then he paced unhurriedly and said: "There are two kinds of gods, one is you, with the help of some special means, attaching your soul to something, and with the help of the worship of the world, gradually gathering the power of faith, so as to obtain divine power. ”
"And the other is to come directly from the Eternal God Kingdom, just like the national teacher of the Tang Empire, as well as the sect master of the Shenmiao Sect, and the senior monk in the Wuxiang Temple, in fact, they are all gods, and after they came, they were worshiped by their disciples, and they can be regarded as gaining some faith power. ”
Seeing that no one interrupted him, Lucius continued to say to himself, "Are you wondering? Shouldn't the one who came down from the Eternal Kingdom of God be a god with divine nature?"
"Hehe, yes, divinity, that is the fundamental difference between gods and gods, without divinity, even if you rely on worship to obtain the power of faith, you are still just gods, to put it bluntly, you are actually just a status saint, and there is still a distance from the heavenly position. ”
Lecius's words were a little harsh in the ears of the twin gods, but the twin gods brothers and sisters couldn't argue with it, because they knew very well in their hearts that everything was true.
Their strength is only equivalent to the status of the Holy Rank in the West, and there is still a big gap between them and the Heavenly Rank Holy Rank that can really match the gods, and the most important thing is that they lack divinity, so it can be said that they will never be promoted to gods.
Seeing that the twin gods were speechless, the others present were also silent, or most of them did not have the courage to interject.
Lucius continued: "You gods, unlike the national teachers of the Tang Empire, you have one of the most fatal flaws that restricts you. ”
The twin gods naturally understood what Lucius was referring to. The so-called defect is that they do not have a body, and in order to become gods, they voluntarily gave up their bodies and parasitized their souls in the statues of gods, so that they can better accept the worship of the world.
Although doing so allows them to gain faith power very quickly and thus successfully promote to the gods, the idols are also a constraint and restriction on them.
Seeing that the faces of the twin gods had changed, Lucius smiled and approached the brother and sister, stretched out his palm and grabbed the brother and sister, but to everyone's surprise. Lucius's arm actually went straight through the body of the brother and sister, and it looked like he couldn't catch them at all.
Lucius clapped his hands and said, "Everyone has seen it? This is the defect of these gods, who gave up their original bodies and put their souls in the idols, and naturally bound themselves to the idols, so they will be like this when they leave the idols." ”
Speaking of this, Lucius suddenly changed his words and teased the twin god brothers and sisters: "Actually, you can go to the 'dove to occupy the magpie's nest' now. Occupy the idol of the bull-headed god, so that with the help of the idol of the bull-headed god, you can control the city. ”
Hearing this, the brother and sister were immediately moved. He was almost on the verge of rushing to the temple and occupying the ownerless temple and the statue.
But suddenly, the siblings came to their senses and felt that things were not as simple as they thought. And seeing the warm smile on Lucius's face made the brother and sister feel even more worried.
Seeing that the brother and sister didn't rush out, Lu Xiuston smiled and nodded: "Not bad." You are not carried away by desire, and you can know where you are now, but if you do rush out, I am afraid that the result will be very disappointing to you. ”
As he spoke, Lucius stretched out his hand and pointed to the temple not far away, and in an instant the temple collapsed, and in an instant it was reduced to ruins, leaving almost nothing behind.
The civilians in the city, who had enshrined the ox-headed deity, saw the temple suddenly collapse without warning, and one by one ran out of their homes as if the end of the world was about to end, and knelt in front of the ruins and cried loudly, kowtowing and praying.
But the ruins naturally did not give those believers any response, and some crazy believers tried to come forward to tear up the ruins, as if trying to rescue the idols in the temple under the ruins.
But when they stretched out their hands to grab the ruins, they found that the collapsed ruins had turned into yellow sand, and the yellow sand they grabbed in their hands would instantly pass through their fingers, and with the wind blowing over, they would drift away throughout the East Turtle City.
Many believers cried out in horror, "Why is this happening, why is this happening? Is it true that the gods are no longer protecting us?"
Seeing that those believers were frantically trying to open the yellow sand, Lucius looked at the brother and sister of the twin gods and said, "At this time, in fact, you should appear, maybe you can gain more faith power, so that these believers will turn to believe in you." ”
Lecius's voice was not controlled, as if he was deliberately trying to let those believers hear it, and he said it very loudly, which immediately attracted the attention of those believers.
Those believers who knelt in front of the temple turned into sand grains realized that there were other people here, especially Su Chu and Na Lidu, the two original administrators of the Eastern Turtle City, which suddenly made those believers seem to see hope.
In an instant, they all gathered around, surrounded Su Chu and Na Li, and knelt on the ground and cried: "Two adults, you have to call the shots for us, the destruction of the temple is a great shame, you must help find out the culprit, and make the murderer pay the price." ”
Seeing the many believers in the city kneeling in front of him, Su Chu and Na Li both felt their heads as big as a fight, and the two of them looked at Lucius and the twin gods at the same time, as if they wanted to ask their opinions.
It's just that neither Lucius nor the twin god siblings seem to be going to give any response, but the two sides are still standing there with tension, and it looks like they may rush up at any time to start a big war again, even in front of a large number of believers.
Su Chu and Na Li were naturally very nervous, worried that things might get out of hand, and at the same time, they were also afraid that they might be affected.
While the believers were pleading, suddenly several figures came out of the temple that had turned into grains of sand, and as the figures came out from under the grains of sand, all the believers present were stunned, thinking that their god had appeared.
As a result, one of them shook the sand from his body and shouted, "Grandma's." What the hell is going on? How could such a good temple suddenly collapse? And it was all turned into grains of sand, and was it really punished by heaven?"
Hearing that the figure crawling out from under the yellow sand actually said this, the believers and people who had gathered were all stunned, but they didn't know what to do for a while.
At this moment, time seemed to freeze, but suddenly Li Xuanji shouted "father" loudly, rushed directly to the figure who spoke, and quickly started to help the other party clean up the sand on his body, this scene made everyone present stunned.
Until this time. The believers finally realized that these creatures crawling out from under the sand were not the divine apparitions they had hoped for.
Soon, a merchant in the city recognized one of them and couldn't help but exclaim: "This, isn't this the person from the Li family's caravan?
When someone recognized them, everyone else was relieved. Although East Turtle City is a military city, there will also be merchants who come and go, especially the people of the Li family, one of the most powerful caravans in the Western Regions, and naturally there will be many merchants who know each other.
The identities of the men who climbed out of the ruins of the temple were confirmed. Then some people began to suspect them: "Did you say that you collapsed the temple?"
"You have to give an explanation, if the temple was destroyed by you, you. You must pay for your lives and dare to destroy our temple, and you don't want to get out of East Turtle City alive. ”
Seeing that the crowd was already excited. Everyone in the Li clan, including Lee Chengxian, felt helpless and didn't know how to deal with the current situation, especially how to explain it to the people and believers, because the matter was too strange.
"Hahahaha......" At this moment, an insolent laughter suddenly sounded, which immediately shocked everyone.
When everyone followed the sound and looked, they saw Lucius standing outside the crowd, as if he had encountered something ridiculous, and he actually leaned back and laughed.
Everyone was very puzzled, even the twin god brothers and sisters were also very puzzled, and they didn't understand what Lucius was standing there laughing at.
An old man stood up and walked up to Lecius and asked, "Young man, what are you laughing at here? Is there anything ridiculous?"
Lucius looked at the old man, and finally stopped laughing, and stretched out his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and then said to the old man: "Hehe, old man, don't be surprised, in fact, I really didn't mean to, I just encountered something ridiculous, so I can't control it." ”
The old man was still puzzled, and everyone else understood, and one of the young men shouted, "Hey, what are you laughing at? What's so funny?"
Lucius glanced at everyone, then pointed to the twin gods brother and sister and said, "I think it's ridiculous that you are, there are obviously two gods here, don't you think it's ridiculous that you actually miss the dead god?"
The people present were in an uproar, first, they couldn't believe that the gods would die, and second, they couldn't believe that the brothers and sisters with red lips and white teeth were gods.
The old man looked at Lucius and whispered, "Young man, you don't look like a pompous person, but why do you say such deceitful words? Do you think that so many of us are three-year-old children, and can be deceived at will?"
Regarding the old man's words, Lecius still had a warm smile on his face, and asked the other party: "Old man, why do you think I really deceive you?"
The old man shook his head and sighed, "Young man, if you want to deceive, do you also make up some credible arguments? You say that our gods are dead, but how can the gods die?"
As he spoke, he looked at the brother and sister again, and continued: "Moreover, how can those two little dolls with red lips and white teeth be gods?"
Listening to the old man's words, the twin god brothers and sisters' faces suddenly turned blue and white, and they understood that they had been completely led by Lucius, and now even if they wanted to stand up and defend themselves, they felt that it was a bit worthless to defend them like this.
But if they don't defend themselves, then they are acquiescing, and they will continue to be held by Lucius, and they may not even have a chance to speak.
The current situation is definitely not what the brother and sister want to see, for the brother and sister, being led by Lucius by the nose like this is very dangerous for them, from the fact that Lucius can directly crush the bull head god, it can be seen that Lucius has the strength to kill them.
Under the oppression and threat of this force, the brother and sister were really very afraid, fearing that Lucius would suddenly attack the two of them.
Lecius looked at the brother and sister with a smile, and continued to say to the old man: "Old man, the so-called people are not allowed to look in appearance, have you ever seen the gods of other cities?"
When the old man heard Lucius ask, he immediately stroked his beard and said, "Young man, I have really seen the old man, I have been to Qiuci City before, and in the temple there, I have seen the gods of our Qiuci Kingdom, which are a pair of brothers and sisters. ”
Speaking of this, the old man seemed to realize something, turned his head to look at the brother and sister, and suddenly took two steps back in horror and said to himself: "Impossible, this impossible, how can this be?"
Seeing the old man retreat in horror, and at the same time let out a frightened self-mutter, Lucius understood that the old man had recognized the identities of the brother and sister.
So he smiled and said, "Hehe, old man, I said that people should not look good, not to mention that the two of them are gods, see? This is the god of your Qiuzi country, why do you need to cry and be angry for the dead bull head?"
Lucius's words made all the people speechless, especially the old man who stood up before, who was already frightened and knelt directly on the ground.
The twin god siblings looked at Lucius with some puzzlement, but the latter didn't seem to want to move them, and seemed to really want to help them come to the two, so that they could gain the trust of the people in East Turtle City, so as to replace the original bull-headed god.
At the instigation of Lucius, the old man was recognized, and soon all the people gathered in the city in front of the ruins of the temple knelt down and began to worship the brother and sister, as if they really wanted to replace the bull-headed gods.
The brother and sister vaguely felt that the majestic power of faith was surging towards them, drowning them in an instant, and they didn't have time to think about it before they were immersed in the ocean of faith power. (To be continued......)
