Chapter 2738: The Ceremony of Seizing the Ancestor

He Naizi sat on the ground, looking towards the coffin from time to time.

It seems that she knows more than Cai Gen imagined.

After all, I just said it the other day, and everything will be fine tomorrow.

It should be fine, including Young Master Long.

However, whether it is true or not and whether He Naizi believes it is another matter.

"Cai Gen, Boss Cai, Brother Cai.

What do you want from me?"

Cai Gen had imagined many sides of He Naizi.

However, He Naizi sat on the ground, holding her big belly with both hands, acting coquettishly.

It was indeed not within Cai Gen’s consideration.

It is also beyond his imagination, beyond the world, and beyond the void.

"Hey, He Naizi, stop it.

Don't try that on me.

What is Shamanism all about?

Make it clear and explain it clearly.

I don’t want to be used as a tool.”

He Naizi put away her coquettish face.

"Last time at Taiqinggou, didn't you see it?

There are eight major shamanism sects in existence, each with its own mission.

The remaining small families can be ignored.

In fact, there are more than just eight families in Shamanism.

More than eight hundred.

However, many families disappeared over the long years.

There are many reasons, some are natural extinction and the family is not prosperous.

For example, in the case of Mr. Tong Aijia and his family, there was no one to inherit the family business, so the family’s fortune was cut off.

Some families gradually died out because they had to bear the missions left by the God of Suffering.

Some died because of the shamanic ritual of taking away their ancestors, or because they were too lucky. "

He Naizi gave a brief account and then looked in the direction of the coffin.

I was still muttering that day, I guess the preparations would take a long time.

“This ancestor-seizing ceremony takes place every five hundred years, and it’s a vicious competition within the shamanic sect.

In the eyes of outsiders, it is simply an internal struggle.

Extremely cruel and bloody.

There would be a large number of casualties each time, which would greatly weaken the power of Shamanism.

However, there is no way, no one can escape the rules set by our ancestors.

The shaman families that do not participate in the ancestral seizure ceremony will be forced to leave the core of power."

A ceremony to seize the ancestors?

  If we understand it literally, isn't it a ritual to fight for ancestors?

They are all our ancestors, why should we fight over them?

Cai Gen was a little confused.

  "He Naizi, please explain this ancestor-stealing ceremony in detail. What is the internal logic?

What are the positive effects.

What negative effects.

I’m very interested.”

He Naizi had been a superior and a religious leader.

When she explains something, she has her own rhythm.

She was very unhappy when Cai Gen questioned her.

However, she ignored her unhappiness.

“The ancestor-stealing ceremony, to put it bluntly, is like a ceremony to win favor.

All shamanic family members have a common ancestor.

Since primitive society, countless ancestral gods, countless natural gods, and countless ancestors have been the objects of our worship and praise.

Our ancestors also cared for and protected us in every possible way.

It's like a closed system in which we cycle from generation to generation.

Which descendant receives the blessing of which ancestor is completely random.

It is entirely based on the preferences of our ancestors as a guide.

It's like a grandfather with eighteen grandchildren. It's impossible for them to be equally blessed.

There must be thick and thin, and you lose some things while focusing on others.

Among the countless ancestors, their strengths vary.

Thus, an imbalance arises.

But, everything is natural.

For every family, the opportunity to be favored by their ancestors is something that can only be encountered by chance. Moreover, in a closed system, without competition and flow, there will be no progress and no development.

Due to the above reasons, Shamanism has the ceremony of taking away ancestors.

In this ceremony, the various shaman families fight according to the principle of natural selection and survival of the fittest.

During the battle, try your best to show yourself and strive for stronger protection from your ancestors.

Those who fail and are cowardly will not be favored by their ancestors and will lose their protection.

This is not only a process of competing for favor, but also a process of elimination.

In fact, the logic is very simple. Resources are limited. Only those who work harder are qualified to have more and better things. Those who don’t work hard are doomed to fail and lose everything. ”

Cai Gen’s ability to understand things is so good that he can easily understand them without any explanation and can draw inferences from one example to another.

"You mean, the Nara clan failed in the ancestral seizure ceremony five hundred years ago? That's why they were driven out?"

He Naizi nodded.

“No, you are wrong.

In that ceremony, Nara won and got the most resources.

And, through that ceremony, the fate of the family was completely changed."

If Cai Gen hadn't taken into consideration that He Naizi was pregnant, he would have kicked her.

If you guessed wrong, why nod?

  "Ah? You don't mean it's winner takes all?

Why was I kicked out after I won? "

He Naizi looked in the direction of the coffin for the third time.

The eulogy that day was long and boring. Thank God, it’s not over yet.

“This has to do with the purpose of establishing Shamanism.

I won’t talk about things that happened too long ago.

Take, for example, the current distribution of the eight major shaman families.

Ma Jia and Tong Aijia guard Taiqinggou.

You already know what it is, so I won’t go into details.

Guwalgiya clan, Guanshanle guarded Iceland, you have been there too.

Tong Jia, Ma Qingyang is guarding Nanyun. You have seen him in Taiqinggou. He is the nephew of Tong Aijia.

Suo Zhuoluo and Suo Qingtian guarded Sibery and also appeared in Taiqinggou.

Qi Jiashi, Qi Mingpu was guarding the northern part of the border when you just came back from there.

The Fucha family, rich and powerful, is guarding India, and I don’t know much about them.

Nara was in Korea that day, but she was guarding Apple Mountain.

Niu Hulu clan, Lang Mintao guarded the Snow City, you have also been there and met Yang San.

The above is the distribution of power among the eight remaining shaman families.

You can draw conclusions based on where you have been.

Every location is a mission left by the God of Bitterness, and each requires the strength of the entire clan to maintain.

Until the God of Bitterness appears again, or a successor like you appears, and these problems are completely solved.

Or maybe it’s not a problem, but a back-up.

To put it bluntly, the purpose of the existence of Shamanism is to serve as the daily maintenance and custodian of the God of Suffering.

No matter what the cost, even genocide, we will do it.

Well, the problem is coming.

There are eight back-up plans, and the maintenance costs and difficulties are different.

You have been to some of them and should have some understanding of them.

How to distribute the different levels of difficulty?

It is to redistribute the ancestral gods based on the results of the ancestral ceremony.

The last time, during the ancestral seizure ceremony, the Nara clan seized the national god Tianzhi Beizi.

This is the supreme honor and a huge advantage.

Therefore, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.

Nara was assigned to Apple Mountain, the most difficult mountain.

If you lose something, you will gain something. There is nothing much to say about this.

But fate is fickle.

Nara waited for so many years in the Korean country, sacrificed so much, and even left her homeland, but she never saw the birth of the child who was born with the gift of heaven.

But, it happened to the orphan Xiao Longlong.

What do you think about this matter? "

Say more?

Can't say.

Cai Gendu began to scratch his head.

Oh, I say, fate.
