Chapter 480 480: The Truth (Part 2) [Please vote]
Gong Xiqiu: "After all, he is a fifteenth-level junior who has reached the pinnacle. He is only one step away from breaking through, so he will not die so easily."
< br>Jimo Can’s white eyes became more and more obvious.
"Then you can just cut off his head while he is unable to resist? Do you want to wait for him to break free?"
Gong Xiqiu: "..."
This makes perfect sense.
Until he cut off that annoying head with his own hands, Gong Xiqiu still had an unreal feeling like a dream... Is Tang Guo really dead? This seems a little too easy and abrupt. But the person's head is in his hands, so it can't be an illusion.
"Is he... really dead?"
Jimo Can said: "Yeah."
"Is he really dead?"
Jimo Can was rarely patient: "Yeah."
Gong Xiqiu raised his arms and laughed while holding the head.
"He's so dead!"
Twirl around in a circle to celebrate.
"A great revenge must be avenged! Hahahaha——"
After laughing for a long time, I realized that I was the only one laughing.
"Why don't you smile?"
Jimo Can asked back: "Why should I giggle?"
Gong Xiqiu: "..."
Is this really the husband I picked?
Don’t they all say that the high priest is the person favored by the gods?
Is this the aesthetic value of gods?
A mouthful of old blood was stuck in his throat, and the joy was a little dull, but it didn't matter, Jimo Can didn't know how to celebrate, he could share the news with his uncle and the others. He killed the three masterminds, King Pig, and killed Tang Guo, the executioner...
It was also a relief to them.
However, before Gong Xiqiu could speak, their figures began to disappear upwards from their feet, and Gong Xiqiu rushed forward in a hurry.
"Uncle——"
In exchange, his uncle patted his head.
"Our A Nian has grown up successfully."
These words directly made Gong Xiqiu's eyes quickly turn red, and tears burst out. Jimo Can only watched this scene coldly.
Be it him or these heroic spirits from the Gongxi tribe who are still obsessed with it, their goal today has never been to kill Tang Guo.
It's just that the elders stepped in and allowed the wronged younger generation to vent their grievances over the years, completely remove the burden of genocide, and stride towards the future with their heads held high. His life is no longer in the past. As for Tang Guo? His life was just harvested incidentally.
“Uncle and the others—”
Gong Xiqiu looked at Jimo Can as if asking for help.
Jimo Can said: "The obsession has disappeared, don't force it to stay."
As he said that, the high priest's attire completely faded away.
"Then can you repose their souls and send them back to the embrace of the gods?" Gong Xiqiu's tone was a little cautious.
If he could, he would send his elders off to a new life with a smile.
When Jimo Can heard the word "Requiem", his expression was strange and helpless. He didn't say no, but he didn't say yes either: "You come with me - I just said, you take off Tang Guo's I will tell you the truth, but don’t regret it.”
Gong Xiqiu cheered up.
Looking back at the place where the elder disappeared.
"You said so, how could I regret it?"
The movement in Chengkang Temple had alerted the guards in the capital, and Gong Xiqiu and Jimo Can left this place of right and wrong immediately.
Then, in a secluded rural wooden house, he saw the person Jimo Can asked him to see, but this person——
Gong Xiqiu looked at Jimo Can and then at the lying On the bed, "Jimo Can", with her eyes closed and her skin as pale as ashes, looked a little flustered, constantly switching between the two. Strong uneasiness surged into his heart, and he pulled Jimo Can back.
The wooden door closed with a bang.
Jimo Can watched his stupid behavior silently.
“Didn’t you say you don’t regret it?”
Gong Xiqiu was angered by his indifferent inquiry.
“What’s going on here!”
How come there are two Jimo Cans?
Jimo Can brushed Gong Xiqiu out of the way, opened the door, and stepped in. He didn't see anything strange about his other self at all. He stayed in the shadow of the house, looking back at Gong Xiqiu who was standing in the light: "I will tell you now."
"I don't listen! I just don't listen!"
Jimo Can picked up a wooden stick.
Frowning, he said, "Do you want to get spanked?"
Gong Xiqiu breathed so hard that he didn't choke himself to death.
Jimo Can sighed: "When should we start talking about this? It's complicated, and I'm afraid your brain won't understand it. It's too simple, and I'm afraid you'll misunderstand it. Whether you understand it or not, Write it down carefully and think about it slowly.”
Mr. Xiqiu: "..."
"Although I call myself 'Jimo Can', in fact, I have not been qualified to have this surname for a long time." Jimo Can was a big thunder when he came up, "For many years Before, when your eldest brother was still here, I took over as eldest brother. The position of priest..."
"But I don't like it, but I don't know why I don't like it."
"Until I left the clan and saw the chaos and cruelty outside, all the doubts in my heart were cleared. Now, I'm starting to question the existence of gods "Ignoring Gong Xiqiu's expression of fear that his eyes were about to pop out, he continued, "The so-called high priest of the Gongxi tribe does the same boring, useless and meaningless things every day, presiding over the weddings and funerals of the tribe, and regulating. Clan conflicts..."
"How can it be boring, useless and meaningless?"
The high priest has been his dream since childhood!
Gong Xiqiu retorted unconvinced.
Jimo Can ignored it and asked: "Have you ever thought that there are real gods in the world, why don't you look at the sufferings of the people? Stars fell from the sky, and hundreds of countries in the world conquered for more than two hundred years, causing countless casualties. The people Why should the living beings suffer? Did she listen?"
Gong Xiqiu was unconvinced: "Why should she listen? She is only trusted by the Gongxi clan, why should she care about the monsters outside who are killing people for the sake of human greed?"< br>
Jimo Can asked again: "Since you have been worshiped and worshiped by the Gongxi clan for so many years, why did you exterminate the clan?"
Gongxi Qiu was choked.
Jimo Can softened his expression: "...Since then, I have begun to doubt the existence of God. Even if she does exist, the Gongxi clan has a way to save the world - the Wu Guo disaster was far away from the mainland Unification is only one step away, and we are still a little short of true unification, which proves It turns out that this road can be taken, but if you can avoid it, you may be able to achieve your goal if you take the wrong step! In this case, why do you have to live in a small place, singing or dancing all day long, jumping up and down like a wild monkey? "
Gong Xiqiu blinked and couldn't answer.
He doesn’t think there’s anything wrong with singing and dancing all day long.
If the mainland is unified, what does it matter to their clan?
Isn’t the source of the disaster of genocide the greed and greed of these demons and demons from the outside world, so that the whole clan can accompany them?
Isn’t this the reason why our ancestors were convicted and exiled?
The Gongxi clan is originally a reclusive clan.
Why don’t the reclusive clan live in seclusion?
What did he think of: "But the high priest..."
The high priest's power comes from faith.
Jimo Can’s belief has been shaken, which is not good.
But what he didn't expect was that Jimo Can was not just shaken, but more serious: "After I returned to my clan, I suppressed my doubts until something happened that made me completely determined. You should know , you have a brother, right?”
“Yes, I know.”
Jimo Can's eyes were nostalgic: "When he was six years old, he was sent to the altar to test his qualifications. He was fine when he went there, but something happened when he came back. I went to question the old priest, but I couldn't accept the other person's answer... …”
This is the first time Gong Xiqiu heard about the cause of his brother’s death.
"What's the answer?"
Jimo Can said: "The gods are very pleased with it."
To put it simply, they liked him so much that they took away his soul. From then on Become a walking corpse without a soul.
Is this an evil god?
Other clan members actually came to congratulate him.
He just felt absurd and disgusting.
But he could not vent his anger to his clan members. On a rainy night, he resolutely changed out of his clan clothes, crossed out his name in the family tree, and left without looking back. He will find a way to make the world's creatures truly happy.
Instead of being addicted to this false happiness like the people of the tribe, becoming a pleasure-seeking existence in the eyes of the evil god.
Jimo Can sighed again: "The moment I stepped out of the clan, the little remaining divine power completely dissipated, leaving only the Wenxin and Wenqi of the Dan Mansion. Your mother even chased after me. I took her to travel everywhere. , trying to find a way."
Gong Xiqiu happened in the middle.
He asked his wife to return to the clan to rest.
Relying on correspondence, we only occasionally get together.
I wanted to start my own plan, but I was hindered by some unexpected events. In addition, I unexpectedly discovered that various countries were secretly investigating Wu Guo's evil. According to this situation, sooner or later the head of the Gongxi clan would be found. superior. He could only use his mind to stop it secretly.
All of a sudden, many years were wasted.
Thousands of calculations fail to calculate the human heart - in the face of huge interests, people can trample on all bottom lines.
"...When I received the news of the Geng Kingdom's attack and rushed back, everything was too late..." At this time, he began to understand why his ancestors resolutely avoided the world and stayed in a corner, because they had seen the greed of people's hearts. and ugliness will completely disappoint you.
"...At that moment, all the passionate ideals, saving the world and saving the common people, all became a joke." Jimo Can looked at Gong Xi Qiu and said, "When I saw you lying lifeless The appearance of the altar makes me realize that I am not qualified to save him.”
The Gu insect lives and dies together with its host.
Even though this Gu insect has strong vitality, but the host is dead, it is powerless and cannot exert its due effect at all.
Unless a high priest feeds it with divine power.
He said: "...The high priest who was once able to preside over various sacrifices skillfully is right in front of you, but I can't do anything to save you... I can't save you! I gave up my faith! The gods also gave up. Me! The result is that I will lose you!"
Gong Xiqiu said blankly: "But I saw..."
It was indeed Jimo Can who was wearing the priest's attire and saved him. It is also true that saving a life cannot be fake.
"Because your uncle and the others..."
"Uncle and the others? But they had already..."
Jimo Can said: "I gave up my faith, but they didn't. They were not settled. Soul, naturally the obsession is hard to get rid of. The gathered obsessions and beliefs form a bridge between me and the gods. I confess to her, hoping that I can save my life."
Gong Xiqiu was shocked.
“A life for a life?” His pupils trembled, and his gaze uncontrollably fell on the lifeless corpse, “But...” “A life for a life is nothing but fair, Ah. Nian, if there is this opportunity, not only I will not hesitate to exchange it, but everyone who loves you will do the same. This opportunity is also prayed for by all the people!”
As a high priest who betrayed the gods, Jimo Can only hoped that Gong Xiqiu could live, and did not dare to have extravagant hopes.
But the final result was beyond expectations.
At the end of the sacrificial ceremony, he found that he was still alive, and a piece of information automatically appeared in his mind -
Gong Xiqiu had actually become cold, and his soul was contaminated with an aura that did not belong to the earth. Bringing it back by force will inevitably damage the fundamentals. So a restraint was placed on him. When this bondage is broken, it is when Jimo Can fulfills his promise.
Before that, I can take care of Gong Xiqiu when he grows up, so that he will not waste his life and his loving father's heart.
This god——
Unexpectedly generous.
Jimo Can also thought that the other party would reject the whole family's prayers, or reluctantly agree, but directly take his life. I didn't expect that he could survive for a while longer. As a result, a person can survive for more than ten years. Wipe the butt of this bad son!
"Do you know? You can really cause trouble! It has made me suspect countless times that the gods are actually not well-intentioned and punish me with a dull knife. Raising a son who is not very smart and can get into trouble requires hard work and hard work. It’s more painful than hosting sacrifices before.”
Gong Xiqiu: "..."
The originally sad and touching atmosphere was completely washed away by Jimo Can's complaints.
It doesn’t matter if he is crying or angry.
He was about to cry.
Tiaojiao scolded: "It's easier than you!"
Is this really his biological father?
"You still support me? Have I seen you before?" We finally met, and this guy still had a sinister look. He opened his mouth and shut up in a sinister manner. Gong Xiqiu almost fell out at that time. , and the most important thing is, "Why don't you stop me from taking revenge?"
If he hadn't lost control of his anger and fought against Tang Guo, he wouldn't have remembered the lost memory at all. Naturally, Ji Mo Can wouldn't have to fulfill his obligations to the gods. exchange. Gong Xiqiu didn't believe that the other party didn't know this, so why didn't he stop him?
Jimo Can said: "I stopped him."
Gong Xiqiu was choked and could not speak. The other party really stopped him, but he was immersed in the joy of finding his enemy. , all he wanted to do was rip off the enemy’s heads and bury them with the whole clan. He said helplessly: "You...should have told me the truth at that time...As long as it is what you said, I will definitely believe it! As long as you can live, I would rather call myself a pill manor and never use martial arts for the rest of my life..."
< br>
As long as he can't think of it for the rest of his life...
Jimo Can can live forever.
"I thought you were my brother at that time. Even if the relationship was not good, you were... my only... my only blood relative in the world. There is no way I would kill you for revenge!" At this point in the trouble, he has just learned the truth!
I just found out that my biological father is still alive...
But he died as soon as he turned around.
Compared with Gong Xiqiu, whose face was full of tears, crying as if his father had died, Jimo Can's expression was as calm as if his enemy was driving away to the west. He just said to his son calmly: "Have I ever said that you only have a blood relative like me in the world?"
Gong Xiqiu was so shocked by these words that he stopped crying and couldn't control his beating. He burst into tears, with a horrified and twisted expression, accusing: "You, you, you - you actually betrayed my mother-in-law and found a second wife? You?" Do you still remember the clan motto? You, you, you are not a man!”
Jimo Can’s face was dark, and he wanted to slap Gong Xiqiu on the butt with a stick. It would be better to hit him with a few sticks, and gritted his teeth: "...You are still unhappy with me when you are about to die!"
Who said you are looking for a second wife?
This guy is so open-minded that he deserves a beating.
Gong Xiqiu was sad again - his father was dead, and even after he died, he told him that he had a half-brother and sister, maybe more than one, and he was not allowed to tell him. It's a pity that my mother's love was wrong! Then, Gong Xiqiu was really beaten.
Jimo Can's current form is just a spiritual avatar condensed with literary energy. It is far less stable than the physical body, and will dissipate quickly when the emotions rise and fall. But he couldn't help it!
He cursed loudly, heartily, and bloody!
Finally, be at peace.
said: "Your eldest brother may still be alive."
Gong Xiqiu was startled: "Brother? Are you still alive?"
Jimo Can calmed down his mind, he had to hold on until he finished delivering his last words, lest he die and still be uneasy and be recited by Gong Xiqiu: "Yes, He should still be alive. Since he lost his mind, he has been taken care of by the clan, but there are always times when he cannot be taken care of. In addition, something unpleasant happened in the clan at that time. It's very confusing, and his whereabouts are unknown. I have been looking for him all these years."
"What...unpleasant thing?"
"Nothing, the last high priest came to seek bad luck. "
Jimo Can said this in an understatement. Hearing this, Gong Xi Qiu felt as if he had been struck by lightning. Why did the newly appointed high priest come to seek bad luck? Isn’t that senior already dead? If he wasn't dead, why didn't he come back and seek bad luck once he came back?
It's obviously someone with bad intentions.
Jimo Can smiled maliciously.
"Look, God's vision is not very good. Look at the candidates she has chosen for the high priest. They are all rebellious!"
He is a ruthless person, and he scolds himself.
Gong Xiqiu: "..."
Completely irrefutable.
He seems to understand why the old priest's face is wrinkled and sad. He stabbed two high priests in the back!
"Your brother was lost at that time."
Gong Xiqiu asked: "How do you know he is not dead?"
Jimo Can had a strange expression.
"Don't you even look at the life lamp?"
Gong Xiqiu: "..."
The so-called life lamp is the full moon when a tribesman is born. The high priest uses the baby's breath as a guide to light it. A long-bright lamp, that is, a life lamp. The wind cannot blow it away, nor the water pouring it out. Once a person dies, the life lamp will go out. But why does he see this?
Jimo Can was once again disappointed with his son's brain: "There are still four life lamps burning, but now there are only three left. One for your brother, one for you, and one for the previous high priest. You say I don’t recognize you, but if you pay attention to the life lamp, you won’t say that dad is dead.”
Gong Xiqiu: “…”
The whole clan has been exterminated. Why is he going to see the lantern? When the entire cave is pitch black, do you want to light up his light?
Jimo Can raised his eyebrows and asked, "So, is it my fault?"
Gong Xiqiu was confused when asked, with a pitiful expression.
He lowered his head: "No, it's my fault."
Jimo Can touched his son's head... ah, no, his head, it was a rare moment of tenderness: "You can correct your mistakes if you know them. It would be great if I could find your brother. It doesn’t matter if I can’t find him. It’s a blessing to have a blood connection in this world.”
He told Gong Xiqiu this just to give him something to think about to support him through the loneliest time.
Starting today, this child is really alone.
Jimo Can hugged his son, suppressing his emotions and smiled lowly: "Laugh, A Nian, my father is going to a new life."
Looking at the other person's increasingly transparent body, the father-in-law Xiqiu hugged back but did not dare to use force and held back tears: "Has the gods forgive you?"
"Yes, your uncle and the others are still waiting for my father. I will lead the way, and I will come to pick you up with your mother-in-law when your life in the world is exhausted. We will meet again then, but don’t be too early. Smile more and think about the clan’s teachings. If you cry on this occasion, be careful of the old priest. The rest of the instructions are written and put in the box, and you can read them slowly, "Jimo Can said, "Smile, A Nian."
How could Gong Xiqiu still laugh?
But he still pulled the corner of his mouth.
“Yeah!”
Gong Xiqiu is already familiar with the matter of handling remains. Looking at Jimo Can with his eyes closed in the firelight, he still refused to believe that he was dead. I always feel that the other person will come out from somewhere and mock me in a mean and sarcastic tone.
After packing away the ashes, he sat there for the whole night holding the urn, feeling at a loss and not knowing where he was.
Next—
Where is he going?
Looking down at the urn that was warmed by his embrace.
He said hoarsely: "Let's take you home for reunion."
In view of Jimo Can's unreliable character and his tendency to make nonsense and mean words, what he said to him "get "Forgive" expressed skepticism. He thought, how could the gods like it?
It would be safer to send him back to his clan, pay sacrifices to the gods, manage relationships, be accommodating, and say good things...
Gong Xiqiu made up his mind.
At dawn, step on the morning dew and leave.
As for what would happen if the Geng Kingdom lost King She, the two royal uncles of the clan, and Tang Guo, the pillar of the country, overnight, he didn't want to know. The weaker the Geng State, the easier it is to be annexed, and the people under its rule can get a chance to breathe. On the contrary, if the two forces are too close in strength, they will only fall into a tug-of-war, and the common people will have a hard time living.
As for Zheng Qiao’s recruitment...is he worthy of a villain who has evil thoughts and evil ways?
——————
“Alas, business is not easy to do in this world...”
While resting in a teahouse on Gongxi Qiu Road, I heard several businessmen at the next table sighing: “You This business is guaranteed to make a profit, but it’s just a matter of how much you earn. Why are you still sighing like this? , how can I and the other brothers deal with it?”
“Is there any business in this world that is guaranteed to make a profit? My brother almost lost everything on this trip, and almost even lost his life. . Does Longwu County know? It’s not peaceful!”
The merchant was still frightened when he talked about it.
It turned out that this merchant was in the business of smuggling salt and iron.
This business was left in the peaceful and prosperous times, and the entire household registration book would be beheaded, but in this chaotic era of war and chaos, the country is not safe, how can it be taken care of? Some traders will take risks driven by profit.
If you are lucky, you can make a lot of money.
This businessman is one of them.
The road of smuggling to foreign races is still the same, because the competition pressure is small and the profits are large. The disadvantage is that the risks are also high.
But he went to a dock and followed a senior salt seller when he was off the line. He could drink some soup while the other party ate meat.
Who would have thought that the salt seller would go to the Shiwuxi Territory and there would be no news again. I waited around in Longwu County and could not wait. The appointed time had already passed, and I knew in my heart that the other party was in danger. few.
He could only curse the Shiwu alien race in his heart for being fierce and cunning, but also feeling sorry for his own goods. It happened that the border was not peaceful, so in order to save his life, he had no choice but to escape early.
After hearing the experience of the unlucky merchant, everyone sympathized.
Just when he was about to feel relieved, the merchant suddenly slapped the table, sweeping away his decadence and boosting his spirits as if he had been given a shot of chicken blood.
"However, I heard some news on the way, which made me feel relieved! Do you know about the Ten Crow Kings? Their king personally marched on the front line. Hahaha, who knew there was a fire in the backyard! Even this messy Caotai team wants to covet our fertile soil? Bah! !”
“A fire in the backyard?”
It’s a joy to hear.
Everyone asked what was going on.
Gong Xiqiu, who was about to serve wine and ask his father if he wanted a sip from the urn, was also attracted to his attention and stretched out his ears.
The merchant stroked his long beard.
"If you want to know this, you need to start talking about it a month ago!"
(●''●)
I suddenly feel liver pain...
It’s been a long time since my liver has grown so long, and the spores have grown a little bigger. She squeezes me when I sit for a long time...
PS: Wow, oh, oh, oh, can you give me your monthly ticket? Today is the 30th, and the monthly ticket is now 7151, which is very close to 8,000.
PPPS: In the last two days, I can still get excited.
