I am God Chapter 467: : This land is blessed by the gods
Just after noon, the sun is shining.
The Harvest Temple in Moonlight City is holding a **** worship ceremony, and this is the time when everyone in the city is most free, and many people come to watch the excitement.
In addition, a large number of farmers from outside the city entered the city to participate in this celebration.
The Temple of Harvest does not use the flat top and dome style that are common in temples, but towering spires, and many places in the temple use triangular elements.
This makes the Harvest Temple look very different from other temples, with a mysterious and exotic style.
Because Feathered Snake lived under the ice field for a long time, saw the barbaric tribes in the north, the country of shamans above the wasteland, and the country of yellow sand, and also arrived at the king city of the endless sand sea, and its temple can also See the place where the architectural characteristics of each place are mixed.
"Hoo!"
A **** servant summoned a fire demon and sent it to the altar.
The extraordinary flame surged up and made a bursting sound, announcing the beginning of the celebration.
"咚咚咚~"
Next.
In the square under the temple, drums sounded in order, accompanied by the sacrificial dance of the snake maid.
Beautiful snake girls twisted their waists and chanted the "Harvest Scripture" compiled by believers. The sun shone on their snow-white skin, as if reflecting light, shaking people's eyes. Do not open your eyes.
Many feathered serpents in yellow clothes stood in the square, under the flames of the altar fire demon, with solemn expressions.
With the end of the sacrificial dance, the servants of the gods began to preach their teachings to the mortals and pray to the gods.
"Kurmis, the Lord of the Harvest, Kurmis, the Feathered Serpent God."
“He brought a bountiful harvest and new crops to the world, bringing good news to all.”
"He is a good god, a righteous god, and the protector of mortals. He will redeem the suffering of mortals."
The Feathered Serpent has not yet become a myth, but its belief has begun to spread among people.
The lizard people called him the Lord of Harvest, the Feathered Serpent God, saying that Feathered Serpent brought a good harvest to the world, so that the world would no longer suffer from hunger and keep mortals away from disasters.
As long as you believe in him, you can become lucky and happy, stay away from all suffering, and no longer suffer.
I have to say that this set of rhetoric is very provocative.
Many people in the city knew about the Harvest Temple for the first time, but many people came here because of the teachings of the Harvest Temple taught by the apprentices who walked the streets.
Let's see what this **** who can bring luck and banish misery looks like.
"The Feathered Serpent God Kurmis, I have heard of this name. Many years ago, I remember that a long time ago, an existence with this name came to the Moonlight Province and summoned many flying dragons. The big snake with wings solved the disaster of green vines." Many years later, some people still remember the name of Kurmis.
"The servants of the gods said that those big snakes with wings are the incarnation of the Feathered Serpent God walking in the world." Coupled with the publicity of the Harvest Temple, more people began to recall the past.
"It is said that even the brown ball vine was made by this god, and he gave it to King Osis, hoping that King Osis could plant it in the whole kingdom." Someone mentioned a story that the locals didn't know very well. secret.
"Really?" Until now, most people in Moonlight City only knew that the brown ball vine was planted by King Osis. As for how the brown ball vine came from, everyone didn't know.
"Then He is really what those **** attendants said, he is a great God!" When the brown ball vine was mentioned, everyone's expressions changed.
What mortals see about the greatness of a **** is not how strong the **** is, but what you bring to them, so that they can truly feel your existence.
But gathered under the temple, more ragged poor and farmers.
They watched longingly at the bags piled up on one side of Temple Square.
These people are farmers from various villages and towns outside the city, and workshop workers from slums, large and small, and they come here not because of gratitude or belief.
It's because they heard that the Harvest Temple will distribute food and seedlings during the celebration.
That rebellion caused countless deaths in the entire Moonlight Province. Although the rebellion has subsided, the problem is not completely over yet.
Huge numbers of people died, fields missed the plowing season, grain stores plundered and villages and houses burned.
All these have created a large number of homeless people, thousands of refugees who have fallen into starvation.
The shadows of these people can be seen inside and outside the city.
The festival dance is over.
Everyone rushed forward, looking quite impatient.
Anu, the governor of Moonlight Province, also changed into a yellow robe of servant of the gods and stood in the middle of the crowd.
Anu personally distributes the food, and it can be seen that many people in the crowd are a little afraid of the lizardmen and their hideous faces.
But they had to go forward for food, but they just lowered their heads and didn't dare to look at those lizardmen.
As Anu handed out bags containing food, he shouted the name of Kurmis, and those who received the bags immediately learned to repeat it.
"Thank you Lord of Harvest!"
"Thank you Lord of Harvest!"
"Thank you Feathered Serpent God!"
"Thank you Feathered Serpent God!"
People come and go, crowded.
A skinny man with dry hair took the bag, but it was too heavy and almost fell to the ground. Anu immediately helped him up.
The other party expressed his gratitude in horror, and Anu just asked by the way.
"You should come from outside the city, right?"
"How about it, has the replanted food this year been planted?"
The other party raised his head, looked at the lizard man's bright and human eyes, finally put away his fear, and couldn't help but say something.
"The first two years were okay, it was a good time."
"A lot of people died this year, my son was killed, my house was burned, and the land was ruined."
"There is not a single living person left in the village, and it is too late to replant. I will starve to death long ago when the food comes out."
Anu asked: "Then what to do?"
The other party said: "So I took my little daughter and rushed towards the city to find some work in the city. On the way, a group of people came here together."
"As a result, I woke up early in the morning on the way and found that my youngest daughter was also dead."
As he spoke, the man began to cry and wipe away his tears, and then turned into howling.
"I don't know if I died of starvation or freezing to death at night!"
"I wanted to bury her, but the people who fled together said... said..."
"If you say so, you will become a ghoul."
Speaking of this, he couldn't hold back his tears. After a long time, he sobbed and said, "I don't want the child to be desecrated after death. He can't belong to the kingdom of God, so he can only burn it."
He also talked about the situation after he came to the city: "The wages in the city are too low, and it's hard to find jobs. They all say that there are enough people, so I don't want me."
"The price of food has also risen sharply, and I can't survive at all!"
"Master Godservant, if you didn't distribute some food, I really don't know how to live."
Anu's hands trembled, and he didn't know what to say for a long time.
Finally, he told the man: "The grain transferred from other provinces will arrive soon, and the price of grain will definitely come down. At that time, relief places will be set up outside the city."
"After this period of time, everything will be fine."
The men still don't know that the lizard man in front of him is the governor of Moonlight Province, because the lizard man looks similar to them: "Master God Servant!"
"What the Lord of the Harvest said, believe in Him can get rid of all suffering, and you can get salvation, is it true?"
There is hope in the men's eyes. For those who are in misery, what they mention the most is the salvation of the gods.
Anu opened his mouth and his pupils changed.
If it was before, he would definitely say yes, but at this moment he can't say it.
"We will try."
The man didn't understand what the god's promise had anything to do with the servant in front of him saying that they would work hard.
But in the end, he still prostrated himself on the ground and kowtowed, thanking Anu, the temple and the Lord of Harvest.
Then took the bag and disappeared into the crowd.
He is not a special case, but an ordinary member of the crowd, a symbol of countless mortals struggling in suffering.
Anu watched the man go away, and distributed all the food with a bad feeling in his heart, and then ordered someone to bring some more from the Governor's Mansion.
And he himself entered the temple.
He saw the statue of Kurmis, looked at the mural of the Feathered Serpent that came to the world with a brown ball vine in its mouth, and suddenly remembered the conversation he had with his master Kurmis.
Anu, a young snake man, held a book and asked Kurmis a question.
"Master Kurmis, what kind of world are you talking about?"
"That perfect world."
Kurmis told him that there was hope and pride in his eyes.
"Most of the suffering in the world comes from the lack of food, and all the disputes are due to the lack of food and resources."
"Just let the brown ball vine spread to the whole world and find more crops."
"When everyone can eat enough, the whole world will undergo earth-shaking changes, and the most fundamental disputes will disappear as a result."
"They will be able to develop various technologies, will be able to obtain more sufficient materials, and will be able to manufacture more things to meet everyone's needs."
Kurmis was sitting in the hall, and Anu, who raised his head in high spirits, said.
"Because of the brown ball vine, there will be no hunger in the future, and there will be no fights."
"Because everyone can eat enough, everyone can do what they want to do, and everyone can realize their ideals."
"In time, everyone in the whole world will be the same as the nobles they once were."
Kurmis patted Anu's shoulder and said seriously.
"Just like the oldest ones!"
"Just like those gods."
Kurmis knows some of the oldest's secrets, and he has seen demons perform miracle rituals, the power of which he will never forget.
The moment Kurmis said these words, Anu saw Kurmis infinitely higher.
At this moment, he is the eternal **** in Anu's eyes.
But Anu was a little shaken now, he looked at the idol and asked.
"Master Kurmis."
"Does the world you mentioned really exist?"
At this time, the idol seemed to speak, and said to him: "Do you long for such a world?"
Anu's nervousness relaxed a lot, he lowered his head and laughed at his unsteady self.
"Of course I want."
He looked up at the idol and answered.
"So I want to see if the future you talk about will come."
"Maybe, it still needs someone to push it to come."
"Master Kurmis, you can do it, and so can I."
The idol seemed to smile in Anu's eyes, and Anu smiled too.
----------------------
Leaving the Harvest Temple, Anu came outside the office hall of the Governor's Mansion.
He met a few Evelians from the new world here, and these Evelians did not come empty-handed, but also sent several carts of gifts, which contained various things, even living things. thing.
Anu came to these chariots pulled by pack animals and looked at the gifts inside, most of which he had never seen or even heard of.
The other party opened a pair of boxes, and Anu saw a white feather.
He couldn't help asking: "What is this?"
The other party replied: "This is the feather that the sky envoy occasionally drops, and I cherish it very much."
Anu stared: "What?"
"A sky angel's feather?"
Anu immediately asked: "Can I pick it up and have a look?"
The other party immediately bent down: "Of course, this is a gift for you, the governor."
Anu picked up the feather of a sky angel, which he had never seen before, let alone a sky angel.
Holding the sky angel's feather, he seemed to be able to imagine the beautiful shadow in the legend in his mind.
Anu put it down reluctantly: "This is too precious."
These Evil people seem to know about Anu, and even know what Anu would like. Their gifts can also be said to be carefully selected.
Anu looked at a piece of meat placed in an ice bucket, on which was the witch spirit's sealing technique.
He asked the other party: "What is this?"
The other party replied: "This is the meat of an ichthyosaur, a giant beast in the depths of the sea."
"This is the meat under its ribs, and it is also the most delicious meat. Only the royal families in the Evil Peninsula are eligible to enjoy it."
"When we passed by the edge of the Sea of Storms, we managed to kill one by chance, and took the meat and gave it to the most honorable person."
"You are the governor, the spokesperson of Feathered Serpent God, a powerful magic knight, and of course the most honorable person in our eyes."
Anu then looked down, and they also brought some specimens of wild animals, plants, and even bugs that did not exist on the giant island of Ruhe.
The other party complimented: "I heard that you have been collecting some rare and rare beasts that you have never seen before, and I happen to have some here."
Anu saw an egg: "What is this?"
The other party said: "This is the egg of a chameleon, a lizard that lives on the jungle trees. It can change the color of its body, and it is very precious."
Anu can be sure that there must be no such lizards on the giant island of Ruhe.
He saw another thing, the same weird thing in the barrel, which looked like a long "stone horn": "This is it?"
The other party picked it up: "This is not a stone, but a shell of a bug in the sea a long time ago. It should not be found now. Look, its long horns are like weapons."
Anu took it with his hand, and found a sticky-looking insect with two tentacles in the bucket. It was unknown whether it had been in the bucket long ago, or fell into it later.
Look carefully, it looks a bit like a snail from later generations.
Then the other party also presented some special specimens, some very precious and beautiful bugs, all sealed in amber, just like gems.
There are beetles of pure gold, and spiders with human-faced backs.
Amber is rare on Ruhe Island, but it is more common in the New World, and the people of Evel regard it as a kind of rare gem.
After reading it, Anu said: "Thank you very much for your kindness, but I can't just accept it like this!"
"What do you want?"
Several Aiweier people glanced at each other, and then one of them stood up and said directly.
"We want the planting method and seedlings of brown ball vines. I heard that Feathered Serpent God is the **** who made brown ball vines. Lizardmen have the best seedlings and the best planting books in their hands."
"So we've come to ask for your help and want to trade these with you."
"Your Excellency Governor."
"When we saw the brown ball vine in Suinhall, we were shocked. We have never seen such a god."
"This land is indeed the origin of the gods, and there are countless miracles here."
"Please let us take them back!"
Anu understood the purpose of the other party's visit, and nodded after thinking about it.
"No problem, I can give you seedlings, and I can also give you the classics we compiled."
Several Evelians were overjoyed and immediately expressed their thanks.
"Your generosity and kindness will be sung forever on the Evil Peninsula."
Anu said: "Everything is the gift of the ruler of life, the gift of the Feathered Serpent God."
The other party nodded hurriedly: "Thank you for the gift of God!"
It was only then that Anu accepted the other party's gift with peace of mind, and asked someone to take the gift back into the warehouse of the Governor's Mansion behind, and sorted it out for processing.
The blood of these strange species can be collected, and can even be combined with potions to create new monsters, which is indeed what he needs next.
Especially the color-changing lizard, which gave Anu many ideas.
Anu accepted the gift and at the same time invited him into the Governor's Palace.
He still has a lot of things he wants to ask the other party.
A question about the new world.
After sitting down in the hall, Anu asked, "Are you all from the ancient kingdom of Evil?"
The other party told Anu: "There is no Aviel Kingdom anymore, I come from Senwu Kingdom."
"The descendants of King Sidi ended their royal power in an internal struggle. Now there are hundreds of countries on the Aiweier Peninsula, and the Green Forest Wu Kingdom is one of them."
Anu knows the story of King Sidi, and knows that this king led Aiweier to leave the giant island of Ruhe to go to the new world: "What is the new world like, and how big is it?"
The other party replied: "I don't know either."
Anu was very puzzled: "Why?"
The other party told Anu: "We don't know how big the new world is, because the place we live in is just a peninsula."
The other party used his hands to explain to Anu how big the new world is: "The Evier Peninsula is very vast, even if hundreds of countries, large and small, are crammed into it, it still looks very barren."
"Across the distant land, you can see the boundless desert, the endless desert."
"The desert spans thousands of miles. It was said a long time ago that it was formed because the sun set there. The ancient Evils named it the Fall of the Sun."
Anu asked again: "Where is the Winged Man?"
The other party said that he had only heard of the Winged People in stories and classics, but there are indeed many traces of the Winged People's life on the Evier Peninsula, as well as the things they left behind.
For example, the sky-envoy feather they gave to Anu is one of them.
"The Wingmen left during the Abyss Demon War. It is said that they flew out of the Sunfall Desert and traveled thousands of miles to reach the other side. That is a distance we cannot cross."
"The new world is so big that we never know its full extent, nor how big it is."
Listening to their descriptions, the lizard man Anu could feel the vastness of the new world.
"According to what you say, the New World is bigger than Ruhe Giant Island?"
The other party told Anu: "It really needs to be big!"
"In ancient mythology, the place where the mother of life descends is the new world."
"He came to the coast of the Evil Peninsula, sounded the horn, and the giant island of Ruhe floated from the sea."
"The Evier Peninsula should not be much smaller than Ruhe Giant Island. Of course, we have no way to calculate it. We can only roughly compare it with the map. It should be at least half the size of Ruhe Giant Island."
"But the Evil Peninsula is only a corner of the new world."
The other party described it to Anu using the knowledge and history he knew.
"The Evil Peninsula is surrounded by the sea on three sides, only the northwest is connected to the main continent, and the connected place is the Fall of the Sun, which is an absolute place of death, no one wants to go deep there."
"After the Abyss Demon War, there have been many people who sailed along the islands on the west coast by boat, and most of them got lost or died in the wind and waves."
"It wasn't until more than a hundred years later that someone finally crossed the west coast islands full of monsters and strange winds and waves, and discovered another peninsula connected to the main continent of the new world."
"It is a peninsula that is almost as big as the Ewell Peninsula. It was later named Wushan Peninsula because there is a huge mountain on the island."
"There is still no human habitation there, and most of the people who live there are exiled evil witch spirits and fallen people."
"And to the southwest, I only heard some rumors that I don't know if they are true or not."
"It is rumored that someone crossed that peninsula and set off from the sea on the other side to a distant place, only to find that the entire sea is surrounded by land."
"Through the ocean within that strange land, you can see the boundless land and desert on the other side."
"That's all we know."
The Evelians from the New World also spread their hands, expressing helplessness.
"No one knows how big the new world is, because no one has ever reached the end of it."
Listening to the other party's description, Anu couldn't imagine how big that world was, and said in amazement.
"The new world is so vast."
In Suinhor, even a small piece of arable land can make people risk their lives, but the other party has endless land to develop, how can this not make Anu think about it.
Looking at these Evelians, Anu couldn't help saying enviously.
"In such a big world, there should be countless resources, and you have endless land."
"Why do you come back to Ruhe Giant Island?"
"And you came as soon as the black storm dissipated. You must have paid a high price for arriving here, right?"
"What makes you so impatient?"
However, the Evelians from the new world looked at Anu with infinite envy, even jealousy.
He heard what Anu said, and couldn't help getting up.
"Your Excellency Governor."
"Is this still a question?"
"This is where the gods originated."
"You live in the place where the gods originated, so you can't understand and understand the richness here. This is the sanctuary and paradise that all people living on the Evil Peninsula dream of."
The other party pointed to the sky and said.
"You don't know how barren the Evil Peninsula is compared to here, and how terrible the wind, rain and natural disasters on the Evil Peninsula are."
"The weather here is smooth, the four seasons here seem to be arranged, there are countless mineral deposits here, and there are unimaginable resources here."
"Not to mention."
"There are inexhaustible extraordinary resources here, and countless extraordinary people can be supported here, with the inheritance of the gods."
"Because this is the back garden of the ruler of life, and this is the sanctuary of the giant god."
"This is the place where the gods originated, and this land is blessed by all the gods."
The Evelians from the outside world showed yearning and yearning expressions, and talked to Anu with a shocked and confused expression.
"My lord, do you know?"
"Before arriving here, I have never seen so many powerful people, never seen so many cities and dense population, and seen such a prosperous city."
"Props can be excavated directly under the land here. There are crops such as brown ball vines here, and there are various alchemy workshops here."
"There are various extraordinary professions such as alchemists, tower guards, and magic knights, as well as demon spirits, lizardmen, and monsters!"
"It's incredible here."
Anu looked at each other, he didn't expect that in the eyes of these Aviel people who left Ruhe giant island, this continent is like this.
