Chapter 1480: The Temple of the Ancient Creator
Chapter 1488 The Temple of the Former Founder
Su Wu gathered his thoughts and asked Qu and Sui: "Since you can't see the 'original root' in your body, how can you know that the 'primary root' really exists?
When a Nuo master reaches a certain level, can he observe the roots in other people's bodies?
Or are there any sacrifices or rituals that can help people observe the existence of their own roots? "
In Su Wu's view, this issue that shouldn't be a problem for Qu and Sui turned out to be more difficult for them both.
Su Wu had not expected either of them to understand what he meant before, or to know the existence of the 'human figure' that was entrenched in the center of flesh and blood, as he mentioned. However, both of them could understand what Su Wu said and knew what he meant. The Taoist figure is named 'Yuan Gen'.
Since they know that this is the ‘original root’, and there are people who pass on stories related to the ‘original root’ from mouth to mouth, how can they not know where the original root comes from?
But the two of them really knew nothing about it.
Sui shook his head blankly.
He lowered his head and thought for a while, then hesitantly said to Su Wu: "Perhaps people like your Majesty can observe the origins in other people and their own bodies... But I have not heard of anyone else who can directly detect the origins of others like you. Observing the existence of 'original roots' in our bodies...
We know the existence of Yuan Gen because we heard the old man say so.
The elderly also heard what their elders said..."
"Is it possible that such a legend has no roots?
If no one had verified it, it would have been lost in time. How could it be passed down by word of mouth to this day? Su Wu asked with a frown.
Sui grinned and said, "I don't know where the source is.
Maybe someone woke up and suddenly saw the Yuan Gen on his body and knew that the legend was true, so he passed it on like this. "
"The king of Dayi Shang can become the king of men, and some people have even seen their Xiang Sheng with their own eyes. Doesn't this prove the legend?" Qu asked Su Wu.
Su Wu was speechless, convinced that the two of them could not provide many clues about Yuan Gen.
It seems that he has to look for opportunities to find some old people who are more familiar with this legend to ask about it.
However, the fact that one's own 'Original Sacrifice' can see the existence of 'Original Root' does this mean that the 'Original Sacrifice Eye' is involved with the 'Original Root'?
The sacrifices to Gushi are the traces of sacrifice left randomly on people's bodies during long-term sacrifices in the Gushiren Temple... The existence of Gushiren Temple is older than the Shang Dynasty. Nowadays, people only Knowing how to worship "Heaven", is it possible that he doesn't know the existence of the "Temple of the Ancient Founder"?
As soon as he thought of this, Su Wu immediately asked the two of them: "Do you know the existence of the Gu Shiren Temple? Have you ever worshiped in the Gu Shiren Temple?"
Just as he expected.
As soon as he said his words, he was met with blank looks from the two of them.
The two of them had never heard of the "Temple of the Ancient One" - but the Temple of the Ancient One really existed!
This also shows that there is a period of history that is hidden by unknown existence!
Therefore, it is very likely that along with this hidden history, the Shiren Temple has been obscured from the knowledge of the world!
So, does the Temple of the Ancient Founder still exist today?
If the Temple of the Ancient Founder still exists, how can we find traces of it?
Su Wu possesses various "sacrificial traces" inherited from the temple of the late founder. If he wants to find the remains of the temple of the late founder, he may have to start with the various traces of sacrifices he has inherited from the temple of the late founder.
While thinking about it, Su Wu looked at Qu Yusui and said, "As you said, if you don't have a 'primary root', you probably won't be able to attract Nuo to attach itself to you. Because of the lack of five internal organs in my body, I There is no 'original root' in the body.
What if I want to become a priest and start practicing Nuo? "
Sui shook his head blankly and turned to look at Qu beside him.
Qu's eyes flashed, and he looked up at Su Wu, who looked serious. He hesitated for a moment, and said cautiously: "If you don't have the 'Yuan Gen' in your body due to the lack of five internal organs, can you replace it with one?" Offal?
If you put on a pair of other people's internal organs, you might have a source of energy inside your body. "
He looked very cautious. After Su Wu raised his question, he came up with this method of filling King Wu with other people's internal organs. However, he thought about King Wu's previous strict prohibition on sacrificing others and having others be buried as sacrifices. , so he was afraid that his proposal would be resented by Su Wu.
After he put forward this suggestion, he was quickly rejected by Su Wu: "I can live without internal organs in my body. How can others survive without internal organs?"
Listening to the conversation between the two, he said with a casual expression: "If you don't want others to sacrifice for you, you can also kill those evil people and use their internal organs. Wouldn't that be great?
Those people deserve to die, but if you kill them and take their internal organs, you can make their meat somewhat useful. "
Su Wu was silent for a while after hearing the sound, and then said: "Apart from this, is there any other way?"
"The great king ordered others to sacrifice their lives and offer incense to him. He used this method to practice the 'human king'. The cultivation of the human king is inseparable from the strength of the original root.
If you think that the method of installing other people's internal organs is not feasible, you can only imitate the king of Haojing and commit suicide..." Qu said with an embarrassed look.
The King of Wu could not even accept the suggestion of replacing the bad guy's internal organs, and he would not even accept the method of the great merchant king using human sacrifice to improve the cultivation of the 'King of Humans'.
When Su Wu heard the sound, he didn't say a word.
"The boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge. We will discuss this later." Su Wu said to Qu, "Let's go, I will go to your clan with you."
"Are you going back to Ge Chang with me?" Qu looked surprised. He looked at Sui who was getting nervous next to him, and then asked Su Wu, "Aren't you going to Haojing with Sui?"
"Yes, you said you would go to Haojing with me!" Suiye said quickly.
Su Wu smiled: "I will go to Gechang with you first. After your clan's situation is stable and it is ensured that they will not be destroyed by King Shang, I will go to Haojing with you.
Moreover, didn't you say that if I return to the clan with you, you, the Fang Bo of Ge Changbu, can worship the 'god' in my body as the 'Emperor of Heaven'?
I am interested in visiting Tianmiao. "
"Okay, okay!" Qu looked surprised, "You are worshiped as the Emperor of Heaven in our Ge Changbu. Uncle Fang must be very welcoming and very happy -"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Sui, who suddenly became frightened after hearing what Su Wu said. He then said to Su Wu: "If Ge Changbu worships the god in your body as the emperor of heaven, your Majesty will I will definitely attack Ge Chang, and I will attack you!
No one is immune!
The Emperor of Heaven has thousands of bodies, but all the bodies can only belong to the king, the ancestors, and the ancestors. If other tribes rashly move the gods that are not in the Heavenly Temple into the Heavenly Temple and offer sacrifices to the sky and worship them as the Heavenly Emperor, it is an act of rebellion. Enemy with Dashang!
He won't tell you this - his clan has long been rebellious.
But I have to tell you this clearly, don't let him fool you! "
"The god of King Wu can break the sky, he should be the Emperor of Heaven!
If his god is not qualified to become the Emperor of Heaven, no matter how much we, Ge Chang, offer sacrifices to the heaven, the heaven will not grant such a request!
On the contrary, if he has the qualifications to become an emperor, even if we, Ge Chang, do not offer sacrifices to the sky, as long as any other tribe makes sacrifices to the sky and reports this matter, the god of the Wu King will definitely become the emperor of heaven!
Even a big businessman! " Qu's expression also became serious, and he argued with reason, "If King Wu doesn't know the situation and is taken to Haojing by you, then his god will be taken away by the king and enshrined in the Temple of Heaven in Yin, becoming the Emperor of Heaven. As one of you, you will protect the great kings of the Shang Dynasty - and King Wu himself will be killed by you. There will be no chance of becoming A Heng or Emperor A Heng, nor will he be able to enjoy the sacrifices of the Yin Temple after his death. ! "
"No! No!" Sui Lian said, "I know you, Ge Chang, are dissatisfied with the king, but the king is the most wise and holy king in the history of Dayi Shang!
He has abolished human sacrifice in various places, and the next step is to abolish human sacrifice in Haojing - he cherishes talented people and will not do such a thing! "
Compared with his well-reasoned rebuttal, his subsequent arguments seemed feeble and unsupported by solid evidence.
Su Wu was listening to the argument between the two, and suddenly said: "So, can the so-called god in my body become the 'Emperor of Heaven', or does it need to be sacrificed to determine?"
"Your god can break the sky, and he will definitely become the Emperor of Heaven!" Qu said firmly.
"This matter has not yet been decided, so you don't have to be so sure." Su Wu shook his head, looked at Sui who looked worried and said, "Come with me to Ge Chang.
After the god in me has completed the sacrifice in Gechang and been listed in the Tianmiao, we will go to Haojing. "
Su Wuyin had a premonition that after setting foot in Haojing, he might not have the opportunity to lead a sacrifice without sacrifices.
The matter of making oneself appear in the Heavenly Temple must be completed before setting foot in Haojing.
He sighed and after hearing Su Wu's response, he calmed down. He bowed to Su Wu and said, "You saved me, and I am determined to serve you.
Whatever you want to do, I will follow. "
After agreeing on everything, Su Wu took Qu and Sui and set off for Gechang.
According to his footsteps, it would have taken him one day to get to Gechang, but with Su Wu's intervention, it only took him the blink of an eye to get there.
The Ge Chang tribe can only be regarded as a medium-to-large tribe within Dashang.
It is much weaker than tribes such as 'Zhou', 'Fanggui', and 'Dongyi', but compared with many tribes whose leaders are not worthy of being granted the title of 'Fang Bo' by Dayi merchants, it is too powerful. many.
According to Qu's understanding, the biggest disadvantage of his Ge Chang tribe compared to tribes such as Zhou, Fang Gui, and Dongyi is that there are no "human gods" in the tribe. However, powerful tribes such as Zhou and Fang Gui, Not only are there several or even dozens of human gods in the clan, but the clan leader may even have become the uncrowned 'human king' of the great merchants secretly!
Humans and gods can suppress evil spirits.
In today's Shang Dynasty, the so-called "gui" refers to "gods" who do not eat sacrifices and are not included in the temple. Such as Su Wu's weird shape will be called weird nowadays.
In just a moment, Su Wu led Qu and Sui to change the boundary and approached the location of Ge Chang tribe.
The Gechang tribe is located on the bank of a river. On both sides of the river, large tracts of farmland have been reclaimed, with roads crisscrossing the area.
Grains grow between acres of fields, adding a touch of green to the yellow land.
Simple houses made of thatch are lined up in the wilderness next to large acres of land.
The sun slowly set, reflecting the river into a golden red, and the gorgeous brilliance spread everywhere on the earth. The entire Gechang tribe was shrouded in this gorgeous sunset.
When a few people walked into the Gechang tribe, they saw beacon fire jumping in the dark pottery basin on the observation deck built with wooden pillars outside the Gechang tribe. However, the guard soldiers who were supposed to be standing on the observation deck and patrolling all directions were nowhere to be seen. . The soldiers who were supposed to patrol around the tribe never showed up.
The surrounding area of the entire tribe was quiet, and apart from the sound of the wind, no other human sounds could be heard.
The walls made of vegetation and soil blocked the view of the three people. Looking at the silent tribe, Qu had an ominous premonition in his heart. He pushed open the wooden door of the wall in a panic and hurried towards the tribe. Su Wu took his followers with him. Following him, seeing his appearance, Su Wu looked calm and said, "The beacon on the tower is still burning. Even if your people have moved out from here, they will not be able to go too far.
Don't worry, if they really leave from here, I can still find their traces. "
"Yes Yes!"
He respectfully agreed.
Su Wu's consolation did have an effect, calming his mind. He quickly thought of where the clan members might stay, and led Su Wu and Sui there.
Several people walked through the winding path surrounded by thatched houses, and the buildings in their field of vision gradually became taller and more exquisite.
Some stone and tiled buildings began to appear in Su Wu's eyes.
The buildings in the entire Gechang tribe are distributed outward layer by layer. The closer to the buildings surrounded by the outer fence, the simpler they become. The further you go in, the buildings gradually become taller and the materials used become more sophisticated.
In the center of all the buildings, there is a three-story altar made of stone.
As he led Su Wu and approached the three-story altar, noisy voices gradually passed through the barriers of the buildings and poured into the ears of the three of them.
Hearing the noisy voices, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He said to Su Wu: "My guess is correct, the clan members are all gathered here at the altar!"
After speaking, he led Su Wu and Sui through the narrow passage between two tall buildings and took a shortcut to the altar in the center of the tribe.
The three-story stone altar was crowded with people, so densely packed that one could not see the end of the altar.
The smell of burning firewood flowed down from the altar and poured into Su Wu's nostrils. The roar of people's voices rushed into Su Wu's ears along with a heat wave.
Before he could distinguish the information in the noisy voices, he saw him grabbing a random Gechang tribesman and asking him a few questions. His expression suddenly became anxious, and he pushed through the crowd and walked towards the center of the altar. While waving to Su Wu and his followers behind him: "King Wu, here, here!
Uncle Fang wants to forcefully sacrifice and use the lives of tribesmen to help himself become a human god!
You come with me! "
