For those who live under the mountain, today is destined to be a big day. Just because there are gods and people, not one or two, but hundreds of thousands. In fact, it is not uncommon for them to meet one or two gods occasionally. The lucky ones will be called up to ask a few words. The luckier ones will be rewarded for this, but this is the first time like today.
First, a little ink color appeared on the snow-covered mountain peaks all year round, and then the ink color began to flow and extend, gradually turning into a long snake winding down the mountain. It was it that made the silver snake appearing a bit dazzling. The silver snake came in a hurry and gradually caught up, but when it surpassed, the snake head came to a halt, and even the whole team was in chaos.
As a ray of light suddenly lit up, chaos came and went quickly. But the matter didn't stop there, the speed of the two long snakes dropped sharply, and there was no longer the feeling of running and flowing water before, and it was a little more solemn out of thin air. The route of travel has also changed a lot, no longer as winding as before.
Ruiou regrets leaving the team, and regrets some of the previous arrangements. If you are still taking the lead, you will definitely not try to surpass the opponent. If the leader of the team was to criticize the elderly, it would certainly not be so impulsive.
Ugh--
In recent years, although it did not expand like the sacrifices, it still absorbed a group of young people. In the gatekeeper's eyes, the past is unbearable, but it has great appeal to many young people. Compared with the older generation, these stupid children don't know what blood is flowing into a river, let alone cruelty, even if they are attracted by blood and cruelty.
No one wants their children to get involved with the gatekeeper, even the gatekeeper himself. Some things, some positions, they are enough.
God is merciful, at least in this respect. After the world is unified, or after the hometown is unified, the treatment of their slaves has also increased, and the enviable fatness is not hesitating to let them go. Even though he has been tested and tested for the rest of his life, he is a little nervous when facing these.
So they have a very wide range of choices, and there are many ways to show piety. In fact, sacrifice is a very good choice. Is there someone who is more suitable to become a sacrifice than from Shuang Wing City?
The answer is yes, no!
So, why be a gatekeeper?
Many times, many things, even the gods will ignore the existence of the gatekeeper. The sacrificial team continued to grow, and the team of knights and warriors guarding the sacrificial offerings was also expanding, but the gatekeeper remained unchanged. For this, they are sincerely grateful.
People always have selfish motives, and this deity is left unchecked. Those knights and warriors are only the products of the transitional period. What would be more convenient than teaching children by their side?
Besides, is it necessary to guard such things? Even the gods will fight on the battlefield, so their devout servants need no protection. It's just to find an excuse to keep the closest person around.
Before long, these young people will take off their armors and put on cloth robes, and then they will be transferred to junior priests. Of course, there must be a ceremony, and most important figures from all parties will also participate. The oath of question and answer is very solemn and solemn. It's just that there is too much warmth, which makes it all look more like a large-scale adult ceremony.
The time to come will eventually come, and a child suddenly changed his words during the oath.
"Are you willing to be a sacrifice?"
"No, I want to be a gatekeeper..."
When he heard these words, even he couldn't sit still.
No!
He has the right to refuse, and he is very determined. Unfortunately, children who have never experienced wind and rain are more stubborn and determined. Although it is very clear that as long as the child is roasted on the fire, he will immediately change his mouth, but that will also ruin the child...
Sometimes things are so helpless and interesting. Many of the gatekeeper's children became the sacrifice, and the sacrificed children became the gatekeeper.
The children of the gatekeeper will not provoke the dark night rituals. They have been in contact with another kind of inheritance since they were young, seeking to survive from death. No one dared to guess the mind of the god, so always plan for the worst. Fortunately, as the children grew up, the deity did not require them to accept this heritage.
Even if they did not finally take over the inheritance, the children knew that although the Dark Night Ritual had not experienced the most tragic battle, those hardships were even more cruel. Think about it, how many of the dark night believers in those days ended up in Northland City? Life and death, at least can end up happy, but the choice? Moreover, there is still plenty of time to think and hesitate.
Over the years, Dark Ye discarded his followers casually without asking. Well done, there will be no reward; if done well, there will be no punishment. And go wherever you like, and change your faith...
Facing this situation, Ruiou often asks himself, what will happen if he changes himself? In fact, he was not sure what choice he would make, but he was very certain that he would not let his children provoke such a group of people.
Unfortunately, the priests obviously have different answers. From their perspective, so many dark night believers had changed their beliefs, and in the end only a handful of them remained. So, who is the winner? Even if the Dark Night Sacrifice has an extraordinary reputation, the answer is obvious.
"Look!
For those sacrifices, the bishop was once our defeated man..."
Of course, the older generations will not despise the Dark Night Sacrifice because of this, just use it to elevate themselves. But, what about the children who have heard this?
He bowed slightly again, then stood up and said to Nicole: "They are all children of old acquaintances..."
"child?"
Nicole nodded, a long chant came out from her mouth, and then the priests chanted in unison. The singing made Ruiou feel both familiar and unfamiliar, and only after a second thought did he react-this was the first carol. At that time, the statues of light and dark night had just been erected in Double Wing City...
"I've been thinking about how to be in awe?" Nicole sighed. "Before, there were some things I didn't know until you mentioned these children.
Regardless of whether we believe in the light or not, our reverence for it has never diminished. There are certain things that the gods are not allowed to forget, so we dare not forget. Those carols that have been sung are part of us and are recorded in the teachings of the dark night. Although we no longer believe in the light, every sacrifice will see them, remember them, and sing them when necessary.
Awe will be retained.
I should thank you, and these children, for making me figure out some things. Don't worry, I will not embarrass these children, I just want them to learn to be in awe.
Not only to the great deities, but also to you and me who represent gods walking in the world. "
Ruiou nodded, "It is better to be taught by you than by outsiders."
Following the words, the two advancing teams progressed more slowly, because the older generation of gatekeepers was slowly reducing their strength under the sign of Ruiou, and began to chant in low voices with the priests.
Some things will only be hidden in my heart, but they will not be forgotten. Just like a certain experience, like the great described in this carol...
It hugged the cat and walked into the crowded insect swarm with a smile; it hugged the cat and walked towards the demon army on the opposite side with a smile, not caring about the halted insect swarm at all. Have……
So Ruiou finally remembered why he believed in the light-because he had been avoiding the darkness.
Perhaps this is the reason God Yu asked himself to come here. Remember what you have faced and tell these children what you will face...
