Chapter 210 The God of Grain
Beyond the Pass, the Gushan tribe.
The Gushan tribe is one of the major tribes of the barbarians. Although they have the smallest number of people among the major tribes, they are the most brave and good at fighting.
Originally, when natural disasters struck in the near future and the Central Plains was in danger, the Gushan tribe was the most determined fighting faction.
I should have led my troops as a vanguard into the pass as soon as possible, plundered people, and seized property and food.
However, due to the arrival of an inexplicable disease, many people in the tribe began to fall ill.
Every day, a large number of corpses can be seen thrown out of their nomadic tent camps and burned.
For the barbarians, the epidemic is not terrible. Those who die from the epidemic are weak and incompetent beings, and they are a burden that the tribe must get rid of.
Due to the harsh environment outside the customs, the major tribes often fight each other for food.
There is even a custom among the barbarians that once one of them gets old, he or she will be sent to the mountains to die by other members of the tribe.
So as not to become a burden to others in the tribe.
Similarly, if someone is disabled due to some accident and loses the ability to devote himself to the tribe, he will also be sent to the mountains to feed various wild beasts.
So that they can hunt more beasts in the mountains next year.
At this time, a young boy accidentally drank contaminated lake water, which caused him to contract this difficult disease.
I collapsed in the tent, feeling the discomfort and pain in my body.
His whole body was sore and weak, as if he was out of joint, and he didn't even have the strength to lift his arms.
The most important thing is that the entire tent was filled with wailing and moaning sounds one after another.
People infected with the disease throughout the camp were gathered in this tent.
As long as they can survive the epidemic, they can leave. Those who cannot survive will be carried out of the camp and thrown away.
The only care for them is a bucket of clean water just brought from the lake so that the patients in the tent will not die of thirst.
In fact, the physical fitness of the barbarians is surprisingly strong, and they have almost no epidemic prevention measures.
Under such circumstances, the disease can be controlled to a certain extent without causing large-scale deaths.
At this time, the little boy struggled for a long time, trying to get up from the animal hide and take a sip of water.
He felt that his throat was almost smoking with thirst, his lips were chapped, and his consciousness was blurred.
The fever persisted all over my body, and there were even several obvious pustules on the body surface, and fluid filled with germs would flow out at the slightest touch.
"It's so uncomfortable, so painful."
The boy struggled for a long time, feeling his life draining away bit by bit.
Just when he was about to die and his consciousness gradually sank.
In the darkness of his vision, an old but kind voice appeared.
"Child, you seem to be in pain, can I help you?"
Although the boy had never heard this voice before, he subconsciously felt that this voice was particularly kind.
Just like the loving father in his fantasy...
In the barbarian tribe, most people only know their mother but not their father, and the relationship between men and women is extremely confusing.
But coincidentally, the boy did accidentally learn who his father was.
But when he was young and tried to find his father, the other party drove him away with contemptuous and rude actions.
For them, the child is not even as important as hunting a wild boar.
At this moment, the boy finally filled the gap that had been missing in his heart during this time of confusion.
"I'm in so much pain..."
"It's okay, child." The kind voice came out again:
"I will bless you and help you Get rid of the pain of disease and the threat of death. "I treat all creatures equally, regardless of superiority or inferiority."
As the sound became clearer and clearer, the boy finally saw the source of the sound clearly.
It was a huge black cloud composed of extremely terrifying looking insects.
From between the black clouds, you can vaguely see the huge, rotten, fat creature in the black clouds.
Corrupted and fallen organs kept falling out of the black clouds, re-transforming into masses of materialized diseases, and giggles came out while playing and playing.
Although the appearance was extremely terrifying, the boy no longer had any fear.
Having completely fallen into despair due to the epidemic, he was already on the verge of madness.
As the blessing came, the boy's consciousness gradually woke up from the darkness.
The pain in my body subsided quickly like the tide.
Although his body is not full of strength, he can move freely again without the weakness caused by the pain.
With a bang, the boy stood up from the ground, pleasantly surprised that he had actually recovered from his illness.
“I’m fine?”
The overjoyed boy realized at this moment that he had been thrown out of the tent by his tribe at some point.
The surroundings were filled with corpses that had died due to the epidemic, and a strong smell of putrefaction could be heard.
The boy didn’t know how long he had been in a coma, and why his tribe misunderstood that he had died of the epidemic.
But at this time, he only had the joy of recovering from the epidemic.
I hurriedly wanted to return to the tribe and tell the tribe that I had recovered.
But at this time, he found that his body had become bloated.
The abscesses on the body caused by the epidemic have not subsided.
Even the skin still looks like a dead person, not only bloodless, but also like cotton.
With a slight touch of his hand, a large hole was made in his abdomen, and his internal organs almost flowed out from the wound.
But what is surprising is that not only can the boy not feel any pain, but he is also very indifferent to the fear he should have.
I just subconsciously felt that this might not be good, and I had to find a way to cover the wound to prevent the internal organs from flowing out.
So the boy turned around and pulled off the animal skins that were already covered with germs from the corpses on the ground.
Hold his body completely, and then nodded happily, seeming to be extremely satisfied with his craftsmanship.
Immediately, the boy followed the road to the camp...
At this time, Xu Ke, who was quietly watching the changes in the situation, probably had some understanding of this new ability.
Unlike the Blood God, this new ability was named ‘Valley God’ by Xu Ke.
“The Grain God is the god of fertility, the original mother between heaven and earth.”
“The immortality of the Grain God is called Xuan Ni. The gate of Xuan Ni is the root of heaven and earth. Continuous It is endless, it seems to be dead, but it is not used diligently. ”
If the blood god's characteristics are: courage, war, cruelty, honor, pursuit and head-to-head fighting with the strong.
The characteristics of the Grain God are: kindness, love of life, no discrimination against diseases and plagues.
Whether it is towards humans, monsters, weirdos, or even the germs of epidemic diseases, the God of Ceres can treat them with fatherly kindness.
Although they are both statues formed by cutting off one side of Xu Ke, the two are so different that they almost seem to be inversions.
