Doomsday Totem

Chapter 106 Legend
During dinner, Kezan talked about the origin of the three major beliefs...

The temple originated in the Far East mainland. According to legend, a monk traveled to the local area, combined with the tribal civilization there, and created the belief in the temple.Afterwards, he accepted hundreds of disciples and built the original temple.Hundreds of years later, a ninth-generation disciple of the monk traveled to the snowy night ice field, spread the fire of faith to the local tribes, and led them to leave the harsh ice field and land on the land of the northern continent.In order to respect the birthplace of the temple belief, the disciple named this place the North Temple.

Thousands of years later, the temples in the east and the temples in the north developed independently, forming different cultural traditions.The Oriental temple is divided into "outer hall" and "inner hall", and there are two types of believers.Those who live outside the temple and visit their ancestors regularly or pray to the gods and Buddhas are called "monks". Those who live in the temple and worship their ancestors and "Fudo Myo" are called "temple monks". Temple monks usually have to shave their heads , Light incense scars for practice, some pious, but also abstinence and vegetarianism.

It is said that the wandering monk who went to the Northern Wilderness Continent back then was a disciple of the "outer hall", and hadn't read much of the "scriptures" of the temple.Therefore, he only brought the ancestor worship belief of temples to the north, while the belief of gods and Buddhas remained in the Far East.Later, with the progress of human civilization, exchanges between the east and the north gradually increased.It stands to reason that the northern temples should learn from the orthodox orthodox orthodox temples and recover the lost beliefs of gods and Buddhas.However, the land in the Far East has been barren since ancient times. After the two sides came into contact, most of them were supported by the North and shipped to the East with ship after ship of grain.

As the so-called cannibalism has a soft mouth, as the birthplace of the Eastern Temple, it moved closer to and learned from the Northern Temple, changing many of the original traditions. The visit of the five gods and Buddhas of "Kirin Firesmith", "Phoenix Saintess" and "Xuanwu Great Immortal".

Later, the two temples merged.The Eastern Temple is named the Ancient One, implying the temple’s inheritance from ancient times, and the northern temple is named the Brilliant One, implying the growth and development of the temple.

After talking about the origin of the temple, Kezan talked about the origin of Notre Dame and the temple.At this time, he fully demonstrated the qualities that a magic stick should have.When describing other religions, although his tone is calm, his attitude is correct, and he seems to analyze the problem from an objective point of view, in fact, his contempt and ridicule for other religions cannot be concealed between the lines.

Notre Dame originated in the western continent.In ancient times, primitive people in the western continent worshiped the power of nature very much. They imagined natural phenomena such as the moon, the sun, lightning, flames, and wind and rain as their gods.At that time, the primitive people in the western continent lived in caves.Therefore, they thought that their gods should also live in the cave, and it was the highest cave, so there was a legend of "the mountain of the gods".

In this way, faith gradually came into being in the western continent...

However, among the five major plates of the world, the primitive people in the western continent were the latest to be civilized and lived in the matrilineal society for the longest time.Therefore, in their original beliefs, the female moon god was the main god, and the other gods were secondary gods.In comparison, the status of female gods among them is generally higher than that of male gods.For example, the god of rain is the sister of the god of moon, the god of wind is the maid of god of the moon, the god of sun is the driver of the god of the moon, and the god of fire is the chef of the god of the moon...

Thousands of years ago, the western continent finally got rid of the matriarchal society and entered the patriarchal society.

At this time, some men became strongly dissatisfied with the status quo of their faith.They knelt under the pomegranate skirt every day, looking at the little slippers, and their self-esteem was irreparably hurt.Therefore, they randomly selected a male god among the gods, that is, the coachman, and regarded him as the only true god, and declared that other gods were false gods, and then there was the current temple.

"Their true god is a charioteer, but they always refuse to admit it," Curzan concludes, before going on to some trifling traditions.

Tie Slag listened to each sentence without a word, he was not very interested in these things, so he was not very focused on listening.Basically, it goes in the left ear and out the right ear, and forgets as soon as it is heard.And Kezan has a wide range of knowledge, he knows a little about everything from all over the world, and it seems like he can talk endlessly.Tie Slag felt drowsy, but just as he was about to fall asleep, Kezan inadvertently mentioned a legend about an ancient temple. This originally trivial content sounded like thunder to Tie Slag's ears!
Kezan mentioned that the ancient temples have always believed that the genes of ancient gods and beasts exist in the human gene chain.The most powerful creatures among the ancient mythical beasts are the dragons. Their appearance is a bit like a large lizard with wings, they can breathe out flames, and they have eternal life and endless power.According to the legend of the ancient temple, when human beings are in danger of extinction, the blood of the ancient true dragon will awaken, and several "dragon transformants" will be born among the human beings.They will shatter the void and continue the blood of humanity to another world.

According to legend, dragonborn do not need to exercise, they will grow stronger and stronger with age.And they are usually very lazy, they don't go out when they have nothing to do, and they sleep for a long time.After growing to a certain age, they will no longer age and maintain eternal youth.

Regarding this legend, Kezan only regarded it as an interesting story, but Iron Slag's eyes widened and he asked for details repeatedly.

"The rule of evolution is the survival of the fittest. If humans really have dragon genes, why would they evolve in the direction of weakness?" Tie Slag asked.

Kezan shook his head, saying that the direction of evolution is adaptation, not strength.The more powerful the creature, the more it consumes, and having eternal life means that the evolution of human beings has stopped.Kezan speculated that the legend of the temple may be derived from the phenomenon of "bamboo trees blooming", which should be just myths and legends, without authenticity.

"What are the specific characteristics of the Dragon Transformer?" Tie Slag asked.

Kezan thought for a while, and said that it was recorded in the ancient temple books that dragonformers would sleep longer and longer as they grew older.In addition, after absorbing enough energy, the dragon transformer will transform into a real dragon form and become a real dragon.

Tie Slag felt terrified in his heart, thinking of a person...

This person stays in the office all day and night, and never leaves half a step for non-essential things.Moreover, her office is connected to her residence, and when she becomes lazy, she has to be served by others.What's more, she likes to sleep too much, so it doesn't matter if she goes to bed early or wakes up late. She has to take a nap in the morning, a lunch break at noon, and doze off in the afternoon. She often sleeps after eating and eats when she wakes up.The most important thing is that he has never seen her exercise, but she is already too strong to measure.

Shouldn't...

Tie Slag shook his head, throwing this thought out of his mind.After all, this is just a legend, and it's all about deceiving children.If there were really dragon transformers in the world, scientists would probably call them Fantian long ago.

After dinner and clearing away the tableware, the old and the young went to the Holy Pool with towels on, and took a warm bath comfortably.By the time we came back, it was nightfall and the sky was full of stars.Iron Slag stands on the castle and looks up at the starry sky. During this period of time, he has been exposed to many new things, more than he has been in Iron Mountain Town for ten years.

Perhaps, his fate has changed from here, and he has gradually adapted to what Kezan called him "Northes".Somehow, he seems to grasp a certain feeling, something that he wants to chase.But that kind of thing is still illusory, it just produces a little feeling.However, this feeling is indescribably subtle, not too strong, but it cannot be dispelled.

Like a faint spark, it seems that it will go out at any time, but it still exists stubbornly...

In this way, he started a new life.Every morning when he gets up, he will drive the red comet to the Endless Forest for a ride to see if there are ice crystal berries and prey that come out for food early in the morning.Then return to Valhalla to receive Kezan's training.In the afternoon, Kezan would take him to the reference room and teach him various knowledge.

Every night, after dinner, he would take a comfortable bath in the Holy Pool.Then return to the fire and listen to Kezan's old tales.

Time passed day by day, plain and full.

He learned the combat skills passed down from ancient times.Although every time Alice scans, the conclusion is still golden, but he feels that he is getting stronger and stronger. At least for now, Kezan needs two hands to defend against his attack when he stays still.

On the other hand, his knowledge is getting wider and wider, and he knows a lot of things that he didn't know before.Now he knows where the western continent is, what the general structure of the world looks like, the culture and history of each silver city, and the basic situation of the major forces and families.

Only now did he understand that the world beyond Tieshan Town, and even beyond Beihuang, was so vast.He is already looking forward to going to the college in the western continent. He wants to see the land that has not been invaded by war and radiation. He wants to see the ancient town with a history of thousands of years. He wants to taste the vintage wine in the winery. Good wine, I want to go to the museum to see the Eden, to see the development and civilization of mankind.He also wants to go to the Central Continent, to see the war on the alien plane there, and to visit the sky garden in Qiman's dream...

The world is vast, and Kezan seems to have opened a window for him.Looking out from this window, he saw a corner of the world and thought of countless possibilities in the future.He is no longer that brat in Tieshan Town, who has no pursuits other than fighting and eating all day long.What he wants most now is to quickly learn the skills, and then travel around the world.

See everywhere, see everywhere, experience everywhere.

He also thought that if that day came, Kezan would go with him.This wise old man is like an encyclopedia, which can answer almost all his questions, more useful than Alice.

However, Alice's database has also been fully upgraded.The Brilliant Temple has a collection of millions of books and countless materials.Alice spent every day in the reference room, scanning non-stop, trying to record all the ancient books and files into the database.

in a blink.

The river of stars turns, the sun and the moon change, the stars move, the years fly by, time flies quietly...
