Chapter 212 God's Metaphor (Part 1)
Pyramid of the Sun
This is not the largest pyramid of the sun, but it is also magnificent, trapezoidal, facing east and west.
The tower is 50 meters high and there are 5 floors above the ground. Up to the top of the tower is a sun temple. The tall sun statue stands in the center of the altar, facing the east, dignified and serious, wearing countless gold, silver and gems on its chest. When the sunlight shines into the temple, dazzling light shines around it, making people feel respectful.
Below the pyramid is an underground building complex, a stone chamber, which is about one hundred square meters, and a statue of the god in the center, surrounded by the pattern of the sun god.
A priestess kneeled on the ground, and she was praying silently, speaking a mysterious language.
While praying, a sound suddenly sounded, which seemed to be shouting together by millions of unjust souls, and also seemed to be a sacred chant. When this sound was produced, a golden light appeared on the statue of the god, brilliant and gorgeous.
The priestess was shocked and overjoyed, and hurriedly knelt on the ground to welcome the arrival of the Sun God. After a moment, a golden and red light appeared in the crystal in the eyes of the statue!
In an instant, a sacred and majestic, bloody and cruel feeling emerged.
"Taberick, the Supreme Father of the Sun, you are the Lord of the world, and I will meet your will." The priestess said, kneeling on the ground.
The statue of the god seems to have come alive, standing majestic there, countless shadows floating. If you are debating carefully, you can also tell that it is the priest wearing a golden mask, waving scepters on the altar, slaughtering prisoners of war and children, and tribute to the sun god. Countless unjust souls emerge on the corpses and shouting.
"A sinner who stole the light of the sun, appeared in the world. You must find him, kill him and sacrifice him to me. As long as it is done, I will give you the greatest glory." Taberick, the sun god, said in a deep voice.
"Your will is my will." After hearing this, the priestess leaned on the ground and said respectfully. In response, a faint light appeared on her body. Compared with God, it was a hazy light, faint, blurry, but it really existed.
The statue of god seemed very satisfied, and gradually, the light faded away and turned into an ordinary golden statue.
The priestess waited for a moment before he got up. The divine metaphor was very vague, but very clear - the person who stole the sun's brilliance.
After meditating for a moment, she took out a golden scepter, which had a bright sun carved at the top and a snake crawling below, which represented a full of disasters, killings, and blood.
The entire Sun Scepter is made of very exquisitely, which is the Sun Priestess' scepter.
"It's time to go out." The priestess murmured, his eyes seemingly joyful and sad.
When she went out with the scepter and arrived at the door, a snake carved on the door suddenly woke up, with red light flashing in the gemstones, staring at the priestess.
The priestess was not afraid at all, and she held the scepter and said, "I will bring glory to the earth by the command of Father of the Sun."
Suddenly, a golden light flashed from the sun's golden scepter. The blood light in the snake's eyes disappeared, and then the door opened silently.
Wrapped in silk clothes, headdressed with precious jewelry, and holding the golden scepter of the sun in white hands, she came to the corridor, which contained countless monster reliefs. She woke up one by one, but saw the golden light and shrank back.
It was not until the end of the corridor that she paused before walking up. The door opened silently, and then walked up the road inside the pyramid.
At this moment, a priest turned around and saw her. He was shocked. He saw the golden scepter flashing with golden light on her hand. He was shocked again, stunned for a moment before kneeling down.
The priestess ignored it and moved forward step by step until the platform came out at the top of the pyramid.
At this time, the sun shone in the west, and she held the scepter and stared at the sun, with a very pious expression.
The hazy light on her body, when she met the sun, immediately echoed from afar. If Fang Xin was looking at this time, he would find that the sunlight was slowly penetrated into her body like mist.
The priest's footsteps were already alarmed, and the priest's footsteps were continuous and hurried. A warrior rode his horse and quickly headed towards one place. After a moment, an old man also rode his horse to come, looked up and hurriedly walked into the pyramid.
After a while, the old man appeared on the top of the pyramid.
The priestess was still on the platform, the sun shining brightly on the sun god and her body, and at the same time, a faint golden light filled with mystery and majesty!
"Tanil, the Virgin of the Sun, is not the time for a high sacrifice, why do you appear on the earth?" The old priest calmed down and asked.
She turned around after hearing this sound. Under the reflection of the sun, a layer of magnificent golden light was embedded in her body. She said in a calm and down voice: "According to the command of the Sun's father, I will bring glory to the ground."
As she said that, she held the golden scepter high, with a faint golden light on it. She whispered to the dozen priests who followed: "Aren't you still polite in front of Father Sun?"
Facing the sun scepter and the golden light on it, all the priests hesitated for a moment, and then someone knelt down. The old man hesitated for a moment and knelt down.
Tanil looked down at them, and pleasure emerged in his heart.
The so-called Sun Virgin means that the rituals are held regularly every year to preside over the sacrifice ceremony, and each temple has a Sun Virgin.
In terms of divine law, the Sun Virgin is dedicated to the Sun God as his wife, so it must have noble blood, outstanding beauty, high piety, and quite high qualities.
In addition to beauty and piety, their bloodline satisfies the two points of nobility and quality - because they are all daughters of the Sun God.
The kings of city-states in various places are said to be descendants of the Sun God, and they try to unite with their own sisters. If they have no choice, they also combine with their mothers or daughters to maintain their bloodline and strength. In short, their bloodlines are therefore maintained at the concentration of the first generation, so they can all be called the sons and daughters of the Sun God.
The virgin of the sun must be selected from the sun's daughters and become the wife of the sun god.
The king has divine nature and power to maintain the rule of various city-states.
There are many Sun Virgins above. In the life of Sun Virgins serving the Sun God for the whole life, the most important thing is that they must always maintain their chastity towards the Sun God. Adultery is regarded as an unforgivable evil deed. The violator will be buried alive, the man will be hanged, and all the nine tribes will be implicated. Even the villages where Fasheng has lived will be pacified and abandoned, and are considered to be a place where God cursed.
In order to ensure that the Sun Virgin is protected by absolute chastity, no one is qualified to pay homage to them, except for the king, queen and their biological children.
This is the Sun Virgin in the ordinary sense, but the true Sun Virgin must be a pure-blood descendant, and through faith, they stimulate their divinity, thus gaining power far exceeding the priests, and even more powerful than the ruling kings. These powerful and noble virgins, except for the annual high sacrifice, are not even allowed to leave the pyramids and appear in the sun.
But once they come out, their identities are also very noble, and they have the right to rule the priests, and their status is parallel to the high priests, and may even be slightly higher.
Greedly absorbing the sunshine and enriching the body, there are too few opportunities for them once a year. They can truly live in the sunshine, which is what they hope.
After a moment, her golden eyes lit up and she said in a deep voice: "The God's Metaphor has been given. In order to complete the God's Metaphor, the Temple Warriors are dispatched by me."
As soon as these words were said, everyone of the priests changed their color and looked at the high priest.
The emergence of the Templar Warriors is extremely terrifying and powerful.
First, a three-year-old boy must be selected and locked in a secret room under the pyramid. He will not give food to him for three days and only give water to him. He will remove the things in his stomach and wash them to indicate a clean sacrifice.
This is a real Sun Virgin who is inspired by the grace of God, prays before God, and then uses two golden needles to pierce the child's left and right temples.
If the Sun Virgin masters the skills that are not good, they will definitely die on the spot, and this is naturally the sacrifice of the Sun God.
Even if the Sun Virgin masters no difference in the technology, there are half of life and death, so they are regarded as God's choice by believers, but as long as they do not die, the child will inspire some special power.
This is the temple warriors. They are not only strong in their bodies, but also possess a lot of special powers. They are one of the foundations for maintaining divine power in the temple, and are mostly commanded by the high priest.
The high priest looked up, and the girl in front of him was shining with golden light as the statue of the god. He hesitated for a moment, knelt on the ground, expressing his agreement.
Seeing the high priest agreeing, Tanil even felt a little regret. The life he was imprisoned before was executed by the high priest on behalf of the will of the gods. It was impossible to say that there was no resentment, but this resentment could not be vented against the sun god, but could only be vented against the high priest - the unwise woman had died long ago, and venting hatred on the high priest was allowed by the sun god.
Besides, as clergymen with similar status, it is in the interests of God to fight against each other.
"It's so smart, it's really a pity, otherwise, you can kill it with the divine metaphor." Tanil thought, and the murderous intent in his eyes gradually faded.
And almost at the same time, the same scene appears in almost any city.
The difference is the fate of the high priest. In many cities, the high priest's heads rolled on the ground, blood splattered, and became the first victim of the divine metaphor, and the Sun Virgin who killed her with her own hands couldn't help but smile.
And in Kamiber City, under the shade of a tree in the hotel, Fang Xinshu lay leisurely on a rattan chair.
The sunlight fell down with seven colors of photons of red, orange, red, green, blue, and purple. Fang Xin was very cautious. He did not absorb them significantly to form a force field fluctuation. He absorbed the normal sunlight in the area and filled the emptiness in his body.
