List of strange talismans

Chapter 33 History
In order to let Gu Xiuya understand the meaning of this sentence, Cliff told the real history that had been covered up for a long time.

According to reports, there was no god in this world.

The first human beings evolved from apes, and they struggled to survive in the infinite dangers of nature.Summarize the laws of all things into experience, form knowledge, and pass it on to future generations, and fill in a relatively stable living area with the lives of generations.

Then, the tribe was born.

Human social division of labor began to sprout.The men, women and children who gather together perform their own duties. The strong ones are responsible for hunting, the ingenious ones weave clothes, the old ones give life experiences to young children, and the disabled ones do chores within their capabilities in exchange for food.

Gradually, there are more and more people, and the conflict of ideas between individuals leads to contradictions.This contradiction may be how many stitches a sackcloth needs to be stitched to be strong enough, or how a plant must be cultivated to get more.Different lives bring different experiences. People insist on their own opinions, believe in their own experience, and try to make others agree with themselves.

Contradictions slow down the accumulation of means of production, and people begin to realize that there must be someone who can stand up and convince the crowd to unify some people who cannot be persuaded.

Therefore, a highly respected person who had used experience to warn of heavy rain and saved the tribe was elected as the chief.

He used experience and experience to make a judgment and set the rules.As a result, hundreds of people embarked on the initial standardization amidst different divisions of labor.

Labor output has been greatly improved due to cluster operations. It is no longer a dream to have enough food and clothing. The basic demands of life have been met, and abundant material accumulation has led to the birth of hedonism.

People began to be not only satisfied with food and clothing, but also began to pursue sensual enjoyment, and the desire to seek pleasure and avoid suffering became the first driving force for the germination of thoughts.

Why do we toil?

Why can't we be like the chief, sitting in a house sheltered from wind and rain, and we can get the freshest food and the youngest girls with our mouths?
What he can do, I can do too.

This kind of thinking makes people who are accustomed to being commanded less obedient. They begin to want to challenge the chief and become the most comfortable person in the tribe.

The chief felt threatened. He didn't want to give up his position, but he couldn't suppress the restlessness of the ethnic group with pale words.

He quickly understood that he needed a reason, an irrefutable reason enough for him to remain chief.

Such reasons are called laws in modern society, and uncivilized tribes don't even have words, so naturally they can't think of using rules to restrain human nature.

While the chief was thinking hard, a young envoy from another tribe suddenly came to visit. He begged the chief to help his tribe to tide over the difficulties in an extremely humble gesture.

"Your wisdom is more luxuriant than the oldest tree. I heard that you can communicate with heaven and earth and call for water from heaven. I hope you can teach me this ability to save the submerged earth."

The young man told the chief that at the end of the mountains, there was a brand-new tribe that was suffering from rain and urgently needed his rescue.

The chief didn't expect that his reputation had crossed countless mountains.What surprised him even more was that the other party actually regarded his decades of experience as a unique ability.

The Chief was inspired.

Yes, this is not some experience, this is my ability, which no one else has.

He decided to make up a story.The story is very simple, the general idea is that when he was young, he accidentally broke into a place with few people and dense dangers, and then got some kind of revelation by coincidence.This revelation created his ability to summon Tianshui.

But who gave him the inspiration?
The chief knew that the person who enlightened him in the story must have enough power and power, otherwise he would not be able to convince everyone.

So, he decided to tell another lie.

"In that terrifying land where no one has stepped, I met a man whose face was covered by clouds and mist. He was wearing exquisite clothes warmer than fur, and the gaps left by bone needles could not even be seen on the clothes .He lives in an iron house that never leaks, there is endless food in the warehouse, and the board he sleeps on is softer than a woman's thigh."

In order for people to distinguish the great him in the story, the chief deliberately changed the pronunciation and used him to refer to it.

"He told me that He can control the four seasons and make every day when the sun rises smooth. He can also control the sky and turn night into day with just a wave of his hand."

"I couldn't believe it, and begged him to prove it. He didn't care about my rudeness, and gave me a revelation mercifully. He gave me the ability to summon heavenly water, and let me use this ability to protect the tribe and save you from the rain."

In this way, the chief created the first legend in human history.

"Where does he live? On the other side of the hill?"

The person who listened to the story asked.

The chief shook his head, pointed to the top of his head and said, "In the sky, the sky is higher than the sun."

Such a statement is naturally not enough to convince everyone, but people can't find evidence to conclude that he is lying.After all, the chief could indeed summon Tianshui, and no one dared to find out what he said.

The story was quickly spread widely. After hearing the story, the few people in the tribe who also knew how to observe the changes in the weather went to the chief immediately, trying to expose his lies.

Only one sentence from the chief made him change his mind.

"The enlightened ones should sacrifice to him and lead the tribe to sing of his kindness. I'm old, and you have to do this."

As a result, the authenticity of the story was personally recognized by the second person who knew how to summon Tianshui.

The rights were divided during the negotiation between the two, and the tribe had an extra position called "sacrifice".

The lucky one who became the sacrifice was originally a pioneer who intended to resist the exploitation of the chief.

He was impressed by the wisdom of the chief and wanted to firmly grasp the hard-won rights, so he created it on the basis of the story and included himself in the story.

He claimed that he had seen the supremely powerful Him in his dream, and made up related texts and rituals to pray to him.

Thus was born the first theology.

Ji led the tribe and began to pray to things that never existed in ways and methods he made up, day after day, in order to consolidate his rights.

And because the chief and the priest have enough experience, although they have not been able to accurately predict every time the sky will come for several years, they have led the tribe to escape a terrible rainstorm that almost flooded the entire land.

Therefore, people began to gradually believe in that story, believing that there is a kind person in this world who lives in the sky higher than the sun and protects the tribe.

The sun rises and the moon sets, spring comes and autumn goes.

Time flies in the inheritance of generations.The original absurd story has become more and more real under the conscious revision of countless successors.

In a blink of an eye, the tribe ushered in the No.80 chief.

On this day, the new priest led the tribe to pray to the high heaven as usual.

He has done the same action countless times in his life, and he thought that today would be as ordinary as it has been repeated thousands of times.

Never thought.

The god who originally existed only in fictions and fictions disappeared after the ceremony.

Has come.
