Stray Chapter 21: The Curse of Reincarnation
The light is dim, and the incense lingers.
On the incense table, there is a tablet of the Lord of God, and the book has six characters "Blessed and immeasurable Tianzun".
Above the altar is a hand-carved wooden statue, almost the height of a person, with a blurred face and wide robes and wide sleeves. Although it lacks other details, it can only be said to have a human shape, but it has a mysterious and simple appearance. mean.
The surroundings are empty. The furniture that was originally in the living room has been locked by the reborn person who moved it to the inner room in the past few days, completely vacating the area. On the wall of the living room, there are also long rune flags hanging like wallpaper, hanging from the ceiling to the ground.
Every flag made of new pure yellow surface paper is painted with bright red cinnabar. At a glance, it is all covered, densely wrapping the entire living room.
The space that was originally only 30 square meters has now been completely transformed into a temporary worship place, much like an old Hong Kong movie of the last century, or a scene from a classic zombie movie.
In addition to the dim light environment, it does have that kind of smell.
If someone who doesn't know the insider rushes in here, I'm afraid that the first time I'll be scared, my mind will go blank, and the horror is sure.
But if they calm down, they will soon find out that there is no terrifying and ethereal atmosphere here, nor is it such a haunted house, but there is a kind of solemnity that can't be explained. feeling.
Like those spiritual places that have been enshrined for hundreds of thousands of years. Although they are quiet, they are not scary. Instead, they have a deep and steady aura. They stand like Taishan stones. Feel at ease.
This is because when Shen Hanri respectfully, earnestly and carefully completed all the steps he could do, the ceremony of consecrating the gods was equivalent to completion.
He was right about one thing
The red tape is not the point, the sincerity is the righteousness.
Especially for those mysterious beings who transcend the material world, even just saying the honorable name, there will be a connection. If it is really necessary to strictly follow the esoteric secrets and complete the tedious and complicated steps one by one, in order to be able to contact the unknowable existence...
There won't be so many bewitched by demons and targeted by evil.
The ultimate tragedy in the mysterious realm has occurred.
In the final analysis, rituals or something just play an auxiliary role, similar to the effect of a magnifying glass, but it is not the essence of mysterious power, and often cannot even produce mysterious power, but is just a porter of mysterious power.
Therefore.
Even if only a negligible aura was drawn into the universe of this timeline and attached to the statue, the effect would be like a "propaganda advertisement" that was hyped up.
A breath of ancient divinity relies on the statue, which is comparable to the otherworld rules of "inherent enchantment".
Then, give this ritual place for sacrifice the properties and attributes of a "shrine".
However, this is not a superficial change, nor is there any fancy light and shadow special effects. It is not like the upgrade of buildings in some games, and the eyes of the Terra stone dog that can brighten blind people will bloom in an instant. The golden light was completely silent.
Shen Hanri raised his head and looked at the **** statue above him very nervously. He saw that the **** statue was standing quietly, sacred and profound, but there was no movement, and he didn't feel anything special.
"Did it work?"
Unable to determine this, it made him extremely uneasy, but there was no other way at the moment. He could only force himself to calm down and continue to wait patiently.
At the same time, the reincarnated person also tried his best to recall the information about the wasteland sect of the later world, as well as the information and sayings that were circulated, thinking hard, racking his brains, trying to confirm whether he had done the key steps of the ritual. wrong.
The reason why he has such information is because the Wasteland Daomen took the initiative to spread the confidential information in order to spread the honorable name of the Heavenly Venerate as much as possible and to save the collapsed world.
About how to worship Tianzun, how to build a shrine, how to create a secret place...
Wait blah blah.
Wasteland Daomen relies on this advantage to spread their beliefs little by little and expand their territory in the last days.
Because in the post-apocalyptic era, except for those who have unearthed powerful old technologies and weapons at the ruins after the annihilation of human civilization, ordinary small survivor strongholds or wandering camps can't do anything about it. Secure the base camp.
However, building a simple shrine to worship the gods, even if it is a temporary secret place, can have the power to shock the four wilds and ensure the safety of one party.
"What's wrong..."
The tangled rebirth muttered to himself, and in the haze of incense, his consciousness became a little dazed for a while.
Maybe it was because he was in a trance and couldn't concentrate; maybe it was because he was guilty of being a thief and made too many arrangements in order to cover up the existence of this temporary dojo. The sound insulation performance of the house is extremely good, the windows are tightly sealed, and there is no gap left.
So Shen Hanri didn't realize it at all, things had already changed outside.
……
……
Thick black clouds gathered from all directions, covering the entire sky in an instant, and they were still surging and spreading out endlessly towards the periphery. The speed was very fast, and they passed each province in the blink of an eye.
Mountains and seas, sky and earth.
The poor mountains are far from the sea, and they can be reached in a blink of an eye.
From the heart of Heilongjiang River near Mohe in the north, to Zengmu Shoal of Nansha Islands in the south, from the Pamir Plateau in the west, to the confluence of Heilongjiang and Wusuli River in the east... But in a blink of an eye, thunderclouds have already covered the whole of China.
And the edge of the surging black cloud is still stirring and boiling with the flashing thunder light.
It seems that the sea of clouds is still being pulled by some force. It wants to continue to expand and sweep away, covering more areas. In the process, there is indeed a trace of thunder escaping out, flying Reunited and formed around the world.
Then, in different parts of the planet, miniature thunderclouds converged and surged almost at the same time in the sky.
Lightning flashed in the gaps in the clouds, and the dull thunder of the collision rolled, sweeping across the earth in waves, with a feeling of a storm coming. Although not a single drop of rain fell in the end, all the parties who faced such a situation subconsciously felt that this was the calm before the storm.
Some people look up at the sky and always feel that something is gestation in the depths of the thundercloud.
There are deep and intangible things that are connecting little by little and gradually taking shape.
However, the biggest thundercloud is the sea of clouds surging over the mainland of China. Although the people didn't think there was any problem, at most they just muttered that the weather was fickle, it was dark in the blink of an eye, and the thunder bursts made people feel nervous...
But in fact, this is because they can only look up to see that the sky is dark, the clouds are filled with clouds, and the thunder is bursting, just like the most common thunderstorm weather.
But there is no way to see the scene displayed on the satellite cloud image, which is frightening and unacceptable.
Thunderclouds are not one-size-fits-all weather changes.
It's the sea of clouds that covers an area of tens of millions of square kilometers.
It's just that the changes come and go quickly, as if the ocean of thunderclouds appeared out of thin air, and after tumbling and surging for about ten minutes, it also dissipated abruptly. In just a few breaths, it was Yun Kai Xue Ji, and the sky and the earth were clean, and the sky was clear.
But the visions formed during this period are enough to shock the whole world. Maybe the people don't know it yet, but the AIA's surprise is real.
…………
"What's the matter?"
"Is it a new Chinese weapon? Did they develop a weather weapon?"
"Damn! It must be condemned! Sternly warn the Chinese people that inhumane and dangerous experiments must be stopped immediately, and all data must be handed over!"
The phenomenon is too abnormal, the scale is too grand, and the source is too obvious. After all countries reacted, they were stimulated and hysterical shouted.
Some countries issued the most severe and angry diplomatic rhetoric at the first time, and some countries mobilized the aircraft carrier at the first time, intending to show their muscles and declare their strength and toughness, but the appearance of showing their teeth and claws was more like a guilty conscience.
Are they really so frightened that they can't imagine what kind of dangerous theories and technologies are needed to create such a phenomenon?
A weather weapon that lasts for more than ten minutes and has an energy response range covering tens of millions of square kilometers?
Is the madman on the opposite side trying to lift the whole earth!
…………
As the party concerned, the rabbit is also confused and overwhelmed. Not only does he have to face sudden attacks from various countries at the same time, but he also has to worry about why such a horrible phenomenon occurs in his own home.
However, fox fake tiger power is always easy to use. Although the rabbit himself still can't figure out what's going on, but after sensing the reaction of other countries, he immediately becomes cold, and his attitude is tougher, and he seems to be full of confidence.
"We are under no obligation to cooperate with your unreasonable demands..."
"Hand over all the technical stuff, we don't know what that is..."
"We are also investigating the cause of this incident, and will hold a press conference to explain it formally, but we don't need you to interfere with our sovereignty..."
Responses are straight-forward.
And it is also very serious to reiterate over and over again, explaining that everything has nothing to do with their own, they are also having headaches about this matter, they have no idea what happened, and they are also one of the victims.
But
The overly tough attitude and stubborn response, in turn, created a feeling that there is no silver 300 taels here.
At least all countries feel that they have heard the implication, "yes, it's the labor and management", "the labor and management don't admit it, it's just playing", "if you have the ability, come here on your own, and you have no good fruits to eat"...
That's about it.
"The satellite is changing orbits, but this will take time..."
"Reconnaissance planes from all over the world have departed."
"The first source was spread from the sky above Shaohai City, right? An investigation team must be established immediately, and we must find out!"
The country also acted quickly. After the resolute and resolute orders went down, all aspects of the country started to operate. The huge state machinery was running at the highest efficiency, and it burst out with unimaginable enormous power.
……
……
Another world.
The Taoist man in white in the Taoist temple raised his teacup, took a sip of the tea, and frowned slightly.
He can clearly feel that in the great Greek world, the brilliance of the Daoist sect that he has sown is growing exponentially. Ten hundred and one hundred.
In the end, it's already a separatist side. In the void, I don't know how many worlds there are, hundreds of millions of people and countless people who are cultivating Taoism.
"Blessed and immeasurable..."
"Blessed and immeasurable gods, incredible merit..."
"Always benevolent, full of merits and virtues, and blessed with immeasurable deity..."
Huh?
Blessed are the infinite gods?
He was stunned for a moment, but he couldn't react for a while, but before he could think about it, the visitor on the opposite side had lost his patience.
"At this time, do you still have the heart to drink tea here by yourself?"
Wearing armor with feathers on the head, leather sleeves on the arms, and the copper spear in hand flowing with the terrifying divine power that can easily penetrate the universe. Tall and burly, the body is like a battle-hardened body, and the muscle lines are full of power The handsome man with beauty said coldly.
He specially sent an avatar to this remote universe, but there was something very important coming.
It's just that the other party's tepid, unhurried attitude, as if they were determined by their attitude, made the hot-tempered God of War very unhappy.
"Oh, sorry...do you want a drink?"
The Taoist man in white was interrupted and returned to reality. He glanced at the visiting main god, the symbol of strength and power in Greek mythology, the embodiment of bloodthirsty, blood, disaster, war, mutiny, God of killing and rioting.
Ares, the son of Zeus, the king of the gods, and Hera, the queen of the gods, was born of noble birth, with the blood and divinity of the Olympus from the primordial **** and the Titan **** flowing in his body.
“…”
“…”
"I'm here to tell Your Excellency that Zeus has already sensed our plan..." The **** of war was silent for a while, but he suppressed his temper, and his tone became less sharp. , the sound is also smaller.
For Him, this is already a very obvious concession.
But this is also a matter of course. Ares has a hot temperament, which does not mean stupidity. As an ancient **** in the infinite world, he is very aware of the fact that he does not even dare to confront Zeus head-on, so naturally It is even more impossible to fight against this ruthless man.
If it weren't for the fear of those primordial gods who had not appeared for a long time, and the super primordial god...
Maybe this ancient snake dared to kill Zeus alone, throwing the face of Greek mythology to the ground and crushing it!
"Have you already figured it out? That's okay. It seems that Zeus's energy is not all on the matter of planting seeds." The Taoist in white nodded slightly. This speed can't be said to be fast, but it can't be said to be slow, at least That king of the gods wasn't particularly slow.
“…”
“…”
Aris waited patiently for a moment, and found that the unfathomable fairy stopped talking after saying such a sentence, but continued to drink tea slowly, in a daze... cough cough, a The sub-dharma is natural, pure and inactive.
What about your text?
I told you about this, but you only said this, and commented on Zeus without any pain?
Aris took a deep breath to relieve the pressure in his skull, and he repeated patiently: "I said, Zeus has already noticed our actions, regarding this matter... Your Excellency, you don't plan to Do something?"
"Do what?"
Xia Ran glanced at the God of War again, and then asked strangely.
"Whether he notices it or not, we're going to do the same thing, and there won't be any change...why ask, you're scared?"
"No!" Ares' face changed slightly, and he denied it.
"I understand, after all, he was a tyrant who ruled you for countless epochs..." Xia Ran nodded clearly, "But don't worry, Uranus and Cronus are in the past, Zeus The present, but none of them can represent the future."
"It is now the third generation of the gods, the primordial god, the Titan god, and then the Olympus god, although it is a bit offensive to say this, but I think you have been destined from the moment you were born. There is not only power, but also curses flowing in the blood of God..."
Aris' face is gloomy.
This is indeed a curse. Ouranos, who dominates all universes and the kingdom of heaven, is the first generation of god-kings. This primordial **** combines with Gaia, who is also the primordial god, to give birth to the second generation of Titan gods. But in the end, he was overthrown by the second generation of God King Cronus.
Uranus opened his eyes that day and cursed angrily
He cursed his descendants to pay the same price for what he did, and to be overthrown by his own son as he was.
So, everything is not a coincidence, it's just that the curse of the first generation of the king of the gods is accompanied by the inheritance of the blood of the gods, passed down from generation to generation... Therefore, it is reasonable to say that the rule of Zeus is not eternal, and he also will suffer the same fate.
The god-kings of the Greek world were overthrown by their own descendants, and only by their own descendants.
But this is what Ares is worried about. At this point in the plan, he basically needs to jump out and face Zeus. However, facing Zeus, even the tyrannical Ares still feels Subconscious fear and cringe.
"I know your intention, but I can't do it myself, and there are not many people who meet the conditions..."
At this time, the Taoist man in white said calmly.
"It doesn't matter if you're really scared, we can change the plan, after all, your father doesn't have only one offspring, and I think your brothers and sisters are very willing to help you with this, I'm more optimistic about Herac Ruth they..."
"Humph! No need, how could the position of God King let those **** get involved!"
Aris' eyes are cold.
"That position will only be mine, and only mine."
Even Athena, Apollo, and the others couldn't get their hands on his position. How could those so-called half-god **** be qualified to compete with him for this honor! !
