Chapter 890 The Bad Habit of Fetishizing (Part 2)
Chapter 890 The Bad Habit of Fetishizing Things (Part 2)
An answer that is completely unexpected, but upon careful consideration, it makes some sense!
Zhao Yuanzhu in history indeed disappeared mysteriously after falling ill, and has never been seen again in historical data.
It was this serious illness that caused her to be sacrificed as a sacrifice, but it was also because of this illness that she was not absorbed as nourishment like other sacrifices.
This is probably a blessing among misfortunes.
At least, she still has a chance to be reincarnated.
Because of the chaos in the timeline, I had to settle down and roughly outline the entire incident based on everything I learned.
In the earliest times, a unique ray of heaven and earth spiritual energy should have appeared here. Later, this strange ray of heaven and earth spiritual energy was accidentally absorbed by a mountain spirit, which formed the earliest life-saving grass.
After an unknown amount of time, a boy came here to save his Aijian and prayed to the mountain god. Maybe it was his true feelings that made the hole in the life-saving grass, or maybe the host spirit was tired of living like a plant. In short,
, finally rescued Ai Jian. As a reward, the boy will replace it and become the new life-saving grass.
The Life-Returning Grass at this period should still be normal. Although the boy has turned into a plant, it should have a very clear consciousness, just like all the Life-Reviving Grass that has appeared in the past.
The reason why it looks like this is probably related to the bloody sacrifice held by the Jin people.
The Jin people believe in primitive shamanism and have the custom of primitive object worship. When something meets some of their daily needs or shows extreme miraculousness, it will be regarded as a sacred object by them, and even become a god or holy spirit.
When they won a battle or achieved other achievements, they would perform bloody sacrifices. The meaning was actually similar to what people today say about fulfilling wishes.
Thousands of years ago, the Jin people killed and sacrificed thousands of old, weak, sick and disabled people who were captured from the mainland. The resentment was soaring. It is certain that Huamingcao will undergo bad changes as a result, and this bad change is completely unforeseen. Who can
You can't guess in which direction it will get worse.
"According to the news I heard at the time, this incident was entirely led by Wanyan Zongwang. He was the second son of Wanyan Aguda and one of the commanders who attacked Song Dynasty. It is said that when he marched to this place,
Because he was infected with wind and cold, he fell seriously ill and was almost dead, almost delaying his march. At that time, one of his counselors told him that there was a temple here, which was built by the local Jurchen.
I once saw with my own eyes that a god appeared here, wearing wings and dropping elixirs. So when I gave birth to a girl, I worshiped it as the Holy Spirit. Whenever I got sick, I would come here to pray devoutly. Most people's diseases can be cured.
Healed without medicine.
After Wanyan Zongwang heard about it, he came here with a try mentality and made a vow that if he could win, he would definitely offer blood food as an offering when his master came back.
Later, when his illness was really cured, on the way to the army, he selected some of the captives, killed them, and sacrificed them!"
Zhao Yuanzhu stated these things calmly, as if her hatred of family and country had been wiped away over a long period of time, as well as her fear of it. Her expression was indifferent from beginning to end, and her tone was as calm as ever: "Actually, I just made a sacrifice.
During the time it was over, it was still more or less sane, because I had exactly the same disease as his Ai Jian, and it did not devour me as nourishment. On the contrary, it has been treating me for thousands of years.
, regarded me as its Ai Jian. As time went by, some changes slowly occurred in me. My Taoism became higher and higher, but... I also had some inexplicable bonds with it, although it was not...
We live and die together, but I can't do anything to it."
Zhao Yuanzhu did not say the method of treatment, but I can guess that it is nothing more than the other party giving part of his power to her. After a long time, it is normal for the two to have some involvement.
Compared to this, what I care more about is the so-called "god man".
Wearing wings...
Isn't this the characteristic of feather people?
Coupled with Xing Wei's connection with this place, I am almost completely sure of this.
So, can I understand it this way - the so-called life-returning grass, no, it should be said that it is that kind of unique spiritual energy, is actually closely related to the feathered people?
The herb collector had seen Xing Wei before. After that guy was injured by me, his breath was extremely unstable and the color of his hair was constantly changing. But after he came here, his hair was all white, indicating that his breath was gradually stabilizing.
White hair and red eyes, this is a common feature of the feathered people described in ancient books!
When these bits and pieces connected in an instant, the more I thought about it, the more uneasy I became. It was obvious that my energy and energy had been greatly depleted, but I still managed to release my energy and energy and look around.
It's dark here, with a mixture of Yin, bad luck, evil spirits, and even more...death energy!!
It is a completely chaotic and dark world.
Among all the miscellaneous evil spirits, I did not find a single ray of unique aura.
At that moment, I removed the viewing mode and raised my head to ask Zhao Yuanzhu: "According to what you said, it doesn't matter if the host dies. That special aura will find the next host, but... what about that aura? Could it be that it has run away silently?"
Lost it?"
"It's scattered. When you kill it, it will be scattered."
Zhao Yuanzhu looked down at the blood on the ground and said softly: "It has long ceased to be a pure life-saving grass. It has ceased to be so since it began to absorb flesh and blood. Well... In the beginning, it was awake from time to time.
, it is not awake from time to time. When it is awake, it will tell me something. It says that it cannot control itself at all and will instinctively absorb the flesh and blood from the sacrifice. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be that special spiritual energy.
After controlling it to do this, that is, from that moment on, it slowly and completely integrated with the spiritual energy, and both prospered and suffered losses."
I don’t know if it’s because it involves Xing Wei and Yu Min, but I’m always extra cautious. I always feel uneasy when I don’t witness things with my own eyes. However, Zhao Yuanzhu has told her everything she knows. I won’t go there again.
There was no point in dwelling on this. After thinking about it, he asked: "Since you have some connection with it, I'm afraid you can no longer be considered a normal Yin person. After leaving this weird place, I'm afraid you will be dead immediately if you go outside. What should I do?"
Take you out?"
Zhao Yuanzhu pointed to the rhizome buried in the soil.
I was a little confused. Wushuang was probably afraid that something would happen to me. Without waiting for my instructions, he took off the folding engineering shovel from the back of his backpack, opened it, and started digging by himself.
The blood water no longer poured upwards, and the ground was sticky and smelly. After cutting open the mud, Wu Shuang dug out the rhizomes from the ground in a few seconds. It was a rhizome that looked similar to a ginseng, and it was as big as a four- to five-year-old man.
The body was about the size of a 20-year-old child, but it had lost all water and was completely shriveled, exuding the stench of rotting flesh.
If there were no bloody sacrifices, this might be the best medicine in the world, but now... it is probably the same as poison.
After digging out the rhizome, Wushuang soon dug out a hairpin from the mud pit. It was covered with red rust, but it could be vaguely seen that the workmanship was extremely exquisite in the past, and it should have been Zhao Yuanzhu's personal belongings during his lifetime.
"Okay, get out of here quickly!"
Zhao Yuanzhu was silent for a moment and said: "You are walking slowly, you will probably see some not-so-good things next."
After saying that, she turned into a black mist, slipped into the hairpin, and was no longer seen.
Wushuang came up to me and asked: "Brother, what should we do?"
"Go to Brother Yaozi and the others first!!"
I hesitated for a moment and finally put away the hairpin. Firstly, Zhao Yuanzhu did not show any ill will toward us. Secondly, after leaving here, we cannot rush to Zhuozhou immediately. The matter in the Northeast is not settled yet.
Well, counting the time, there should be news from Qian Guangqi's end. The ruins of the ancient Huiqi tribe should have been found. My master will be here by then. With my master here, I don't have to worry about Zhao Yuanzhu's problem.
Already.
In a word, if she is good, so are we. If she is not good, we may not be afraid of her when we take a breath. Now that she has helped us, as long as the follow-up is not difficult for us, I will still be happy to complete what I promised her.
thing.
After thinking about this, I no longer hesitated. With Wu Shuang's help, I climbed out along the tree hole with difficulty. Due to the previous accident, many places in the tree hole had collapsed, which took us a lot of effort.
.
Outside, the dense jungle is no longer as lush as before, and the original towering ancient trees have all shown signs of withering in this short period of time.
When we walked out, a ray of moonlight poured on my face, and I suddenly realized this. I looked up and saw that the tree crowns that were originally connected to each other and blocked the sky had dried up and only the branches were left...
This is the first time I have seen the sky since I walked here, and I feel like I have returned to the world from hell.
"It stinks!"
Wushuang blocked his nose and complained: "It smells too bad, it smells like death..."
Indeed, the stench comes from underground, and every inch of land is exuding a stench.
"It must be smelly. This evil thing has been here for who knows how many years, and it has absorbed so much flesh and blood. These things have not been transformed by heaven and earth. Now that it has been killed, all of them have entered the heaven and earth. Naturally, it will stink.
This is the same as the ancient corpse that has been sealed for thousands of years will immediately become corrupted once it comes into contact with the air. Let’s go faster. It’s just smelly now, but it won’t be long before a poisonous miasma develops. Well... a poisonous miasma of corpse poison!!
"
I took out a cloth towel and covered my face, and handed one to Wushuang.
Wushuang quickly covered her mouth and nose. After I said this, she didn't dare to delay anymore and helped me move forward quickly.
We had already walked to the edge of the forest before. Although Zhao Yuanzhu carried us for a while, we didn't go too far. Now we knew the direction. Within half an hour, we got through the dead trees.
Got out.
Under the bright moon, a huge stone temple repaired with stone jumped into our eyes.
…
(It's so messed up that I can't even scratch my scalp. I've been holding this chapter in all night. I changed my mind for the last time. I will update it tomorrow. Give me one last day to sort out my thoughts. I swear I won't change my mind again.
Chapter completed!
