From that moment on, the saints were just saints, and everything in the past had no connection with them.

The ones who became saints were Chuxue.

It sounds like a beautiful fairy tale. A girl from the human world receives divine grace and becomes the spokesperson of God in the human world. For the Sherag people who believe in Yeragund, that is the highest honor.

However, the reality is often not so beautiful. The so-called selection of saints is essentially a sacrifice - a living sacrifice using human sacrifices.

If you fail to reach the end of the Heavenly Road before dark, you will be deemed to have failed the trial.

Then, the Choosing Shrine will again select a girl to embark on the road to heaven the next day until the saint appears.

This is a very cruel process. Hiking on the snowy mountains is extremely dangerous in itself. Even strong adults cannot bear it, let alone a group of young girls?

In the icy cold, howling wind and snow, if you are not careful, you may slip and fall, or freeze to death in the heavy snow. You are lucky enough to be able to come down from the sky alive.

Therefore, the saint selection ceremony that has been passed down for a long time in the snow-capped mountains has some people yearning for it, and even more fearing it.

But now, the sacred object representing the great god Yeragond is placed in front of the legitimate daughter of the Shivaash family.

It was a bright-colored bell, as big as a head, and it looked extremely heavy. The road was already rugged and difficult, and it was necessary to carry such a heavy item to the top of the mountain without any supplies. You can imagine how difficult it is.

There are no complicated or gorgeous engravings on its surface. It is ordinary, just like the handicrafts that can be seen everywhere in the market, but it is much larger.

However, no one from Sherag dared to despise this sacred object because of its appearance, because it is a token given by God to people. The saint holding the sacred object can use it to exercise a corner of God's power.

The thick snow leopard's tail swung uneasily behind her, staring at the holy object in front of her. Enya's little hands tightly grasped the corners of her clothes, unable to hide the nervousness in her heart.

Can she... really be able to complete the journey to the Holy Mountain and gain God's recognition?

Thinking of her younger sister at home and the advice of her brother who was always serious about words, Enya felt uneasy and couldn't explain how she felt.

She knew very well that if she picked up a holy object, she would no longer be an ordinary person. Even if she became a saint, she would have to be separated from her family, making it difficult to see them again.

In Xierag, the saint is sacred and favored by God. She needs to abide by many precepts and cannot easily leave Manzhuyuan.

However, she has no choice.

Because 'God' chose her.

There seemed to be something slightly hot on her chest. Enya knew it was her imagination. Inside her clothes, there was only a golden leaf that her brother had given her in a small sachet sewn overnight. It looked very delicate, but she said After all, it is just a handicraft.

But maybe it's unusual?

In fact, the leaf was not sent by her brother in person. He secretly told her that if she encounters danger on the way to heaven, she can be saved by crushing this leaf.

The messenger also said that her brother hoped that she could participate in the sacred trial, preferably becoming a saint, and the golden leaves would help her.

Maybe it's some kind of amulet containing magic inside?

Enya had seen similar items from some psychics. She knew that the messenger would not lie to her. Even if she didn't feel anything, this leaf might indeed have some effect, which would be enough for her to succeed in the selection of the saint. Survive.

So, what's the point?

Will relying on this method to cheat in the trial really not incur the wrath of the gods?

Thinking of this, Enya felt even more uneasy.

If she offends the gods, not only her, but also the entire Shivaash family will be implicated.

Even if she doesn't like her brother's methods, it doesn't mean that she wants to bring trouble to him, and besides, there is also her sister...

My brother's approach is too deviant. He used to let it go, but now he even interferes in the selection of the sacred saint. This is too dangerous.

The worried look of her sister came to mind, Enya made up her mind and her eyes became firm.

Blades cannot be used!Even if there is only a slight risk, she will not put her family in danger!

She must complete the journey to heaven on her own, wait until the great god recognizes her, and become the 'First Snow'!

Especially when thinking about what the messenger said, my brother hopes that she will become a saint... and with Ye Ye's methods, he is probably hoping that she will be able to help him even more after becoming a saint, right?

Then do it for him!

She will become a saint, but she will not follow her brother's arrangements!It will not become a tool for him to achieve his goals!

When she becomes a saint, she will be able to stand on the same level as her brother and stop some of his actions, right?

Just like this time, he was bold enough to intervene in the sacred trial.

It doesn't matter what he wants to do, but what about Enxia?Do you want to follow him on the adventure without knowing it?

Enya will never allow that to happen!

-------------------------------------

"Oh, what a sacred trial, I think it is Manzhuyuan's way of selecting puppets."

After listening to Enxiodis's explanation of the origin of the Saint's Trial, Lin Lu couldn't help but laugh out loud.

In his opinion, the so-called trial is just a living sacrifice covered with a layer of skin?

Such behavior has no meaning at all to God, it is nothing more than human self-impression.

Moreover, Kjerag's god has not shown any miracles for a long time. It is hard not to think that some power-hungry guys will use this to achieve their selfish goals. Enxiodis's words also support this.

How can a trial that can even be manipulated by the first choice be considered sacred?

His words were so straightforward that Enxiodis couldn't help but frown slightly and subconsciously glanced at the door of the study.

"My friend, in the land of Kjerag, it is better not to..."

"Is there anything you can't say? Don't you think so too? I don't see any piety from a believer in you. Don't worry, no one will know what we said."

Lin Lu waved her hand indifferently, picked up the steaming tea on the table, and said with a smile: "So, Enxiodis, you want to ask me for help and let me help your sister?"

"As long as she is kept safe, it is a good thing for me that she becomes a saint. If she doesn't, it doesn't matter. Besides, just call me Silver Ash."

Yin Hui could tell that Lin Lu said his name was a bit difficult to pronounce, so he reminded him.

In order to entertain this friend who came from afar, he specially prepared Yanguo style tea, which was considered a good preparation.

After seeing the miraculous effects of the Golden Tree Dew Drops, he did not dare to despise the Golden Tree and Lin Dew at all.

"Okay, Boss Yin."

Lin Lu nodded. In fact, he had wanted to call it that for a long time, but since today was a formal meeting, he felt that it should be more formal. Since the parties involved said so, it didn't matter to him.

"According to your traditions and beliefs, interfering with sacred trials should be a serious blasphemy, right?"

"Aren't you afraid of incurring the wrath of God when you ask me to do this?"

"You can do whatever God prohibits."

Yin Hui slowly uttered a sentence, and he really didn't seem worried.

Some things are not exclusive to Manzhuyuan. If they can do it, he can do it too.

Anyway, God didn’t say he didn’t agree, right?

If any great god was really watching the people of Kjerag, why didn't He respond?

Based on Manzhuyuan's behavior, just picking one at random is enough to banish them all to a bitter cold place!

However, God said nothing about this.

Whether he didn't see it or didn't care, Yin Hui didn't know. He only knew that Manzhuyuan's actions would not attract the wrath of God, so he could follow suit.

Interfering with the sacred trial seems very risky, but in fact it is just taking the way that the people of Manzhuyuan walked through Lei. It is not very dangerous. Moreover, rather than interfering with the trial, it is better to guard against the people of Manzhuyuan. If everything goes as usual during the trial, he believes that with Enya's strength, she can complete the journey to heaven.

After all, his sister looks weak and weak, but her physical fitness is actually quite good. Coupled with the various supplements he has secretly purchased over the years, it can be said that he has opened up a big gap with his peers and will not fall down. On the road to heaven.

"In addition, I have selected a good territory for the Golden Tree. Just on the border of Shiva Ash's territory, there is a relatively secluded valley that is also very suitable for living."

"Oh?"

It’s not a cold no-man’s land?This was a bit surprising, but after thinking about it for a moment, Lin Lu understood Yin Hui's plan.

It is nothing more than a gift, and since I have something to ask for, I will naturally be more generous.

"As long as you can ensure the safety of my sister, then I will pay you a satisfactory amount."

Seeing that Lin Lu did not respond clearly, Yin Hui increased the pressure again, and then said:

"I know, after all, this involves a god. If the Golden Tree doesn't want to accept this commission, can it trade some applicable items? I can let my own people do it."

He felt that Lin Lu seemed to be hesitating, so he decided to do the next best thing. If he could get some things like golden tree dew drops, then the trial could be left to Mace. The black knight's strength could not cope with Manzhuyuan's. Small moves are probably enough.

Lin Lu would hesitate, which was normal. Regardless of whether the great god appeared or not, the fact that Kjerag had never experienced natural disasters was obvious, which was enough to prove the existence of Yeragond.

Who could remain indifferent when it was certain that real gods were involved?Even the craziest Sarkaz mercenary would have to consider this.

Even if he knew that the matter itself was not as dangerous as it seemed, he could not explain it to others, because others might not believe it.

"Nothing I can't take, I'm just thinking."

Can't take the joke?Don't dare to answer?How is that possible!

Lin Lu didn't take the so-called sacred trial and saint selection seriously at all.

He didn't know how many twists and turns there were in the sacred trial, whether it was dangerous or safe, and what would happen.

But one thing he understood - that is, even if the entire Shelagh, including gods and men, were stacked together, it would be impossible to defeat the current golden tree.

It wasn't that he looked down on Kjerag, but that when he actually set foot on this land, he had almost understood Kjerag's general situation.

The level of technology is extremely primitive, and there are psychics who can use spells, but their strength is just that. Take it outside and compare it with other countries. Even a demilitarized mobile city can suppress them to death. , why should we compete with the golden tree?

In the entire Kjerag, the most noteworthy thing is the house god Yeragond, who has not appeared for many years. God, he is not new to the Golden Tree, and it is not impossible to fight against him.

In such a country, let alone intervening in their sacred trials, as long as Silver Ash pays a sufficient price, even if he wants to become a true king of Kjerag now, the Golden Tree can help him do it.

All the fighting power that can be seen is just a god. What is there to be afraid of?

The reason why he didn't respond immediately was because he was thinking about Yeragond.

I followed Yin Hui and walked around on the road. I couldn't sense his aura until I arrived at Shiva Ash's mansion, and I didn't know where he was hiding. If I want to find him quickly, maybe the Holy Trial is a good opportunity to get in touch with him. ?What if He is secretly paying attention to the specific circumstances of the trial?

If there is, it will be easy to find Him. Otherwise, it would be quite time-consuming to search all by yourself.

"Okay, there's no need to pay for anything."

After pondering for a moment, Lin Lu looked at Yin Hui and gave a clear response.

"You have chosen a good piece of land for me, then I will help you with this, but I have to tell you something in advance. If I take action, there may be some big news."

"It's okay."

Yin Hui was stunned for a moment and didn't care. When he thought about it, no matter how big the movement was, how big could it be?

"After the saint selection ceremony begins, Manzhuyuan will block all entrances and exits to the Holy Mountain. In the wind and snow, no one can see what is happening on the heavenly road, so there is no need to worry."

"kindness."

Lin Lu nodded and said with a satisfied smile: "With your words, I feel relieved."

"..."

I don't know why, but when I saw Lin Lu's smiling face, Yin Hui paused slightly in picking up the tea cup. A chill ran down my spine, and she suddenly felt an ominous premonition.

Chapter 1 Yeragond, come out to see me!

Yin Hui got the result he wanted and left with satisfaction. The selection of the saint was imminent. No matter how much the other two families and Manzhuyuan did not want to see him, as the current patriarch of the Shivaash family, he had to go today. Go to the Holy Mountain and wait for the results of the selection of the Saint.

Lin Lu was not in a hurry and did not go with him. Instead, she stayed in the Shivaash family's old house, brought a cup of tea, and looked at the classics on the history of Kjerag in the silver gray study.

According to convention, the time for the selection of the saint is not fixed. After the candidate is selected, he needs to make a series of preliminary preparations to show his piety to Yeragund before he can set foot on the road to heaven and offer sacred objects to the great god.

Therefore, it was still some time before the ceremony actually started, and he could take this opportunity to learn about this closed country.

I have to say, except for the wind and snow that cover it all year round.The geographical location of Kjerag itself is considered to be excellent. After understanding it, Lin Lu discovered that Colombia, Victoria, and Casimir had not been interested in this place for many years, which was also due to terrain factors.

——The location here is really good. It is typically easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is surrounded by snow-capped mountains and is an inaccessible ice and snow restricted area. Since he was not sure where the leaves of the golden tree were placed by the silver ash, he decided to leave. For those who came in through the normal route, even with Yin Hui's response, it was really a waste of effort.

There is only one way to enter Kjerag, and it involves a harsh snowy mountain path.

In this case, if you want to use troops here, you must first overcome the influence of the harsh environment. It is not easy to throw away the factors of Yelagund. If you send a large army, non-combat attrition is unavoidable.

Why waste time and effort to attack a useless shabby snow mountain?

The top brass in Colombia and Victoria probably have this idea.

Without enough profit to attract, attacking here is a total loss. Even if it is defeated, a bitter cold land covered with ice and snow will not have any value.

The premise is that there is not enough interest.

After careful understanding, Lin Lu could probably guess some of the thoughts of the elders of Manzhuyuan - they restricted the development of Shivaash in all aspects, perhaps not out of pure considerations of their own status, but because they had deeper reasons. layer factors.
