Chapter 2167 The Ancestor of Ten Thousand Mountains
"The reason why we came to Southern Xinjiang is to find something." The old man from the Zoroastrian Cult looked at Aaron, "But we have searched most of Southern Xinjiang and still can't find this thing."
"What?"
"My sacred object of Zoroastrianism."
"It's ridiculous. How come you Zoroastrianism's sacred objects appear in southern Xinjiang? Do you really think I'm easy to deceive?" Aaron sneered. Zoroastrianism was most prosperous in the Middle East, the original Persian Empire, and in China, Zoroastrianism's
More activity tracks are in the northwest region.
After knowing that Zoroastrianism was responsible, Aaron went out of his way to investigate all the information about Zoroastrianism. Therefore, he had a very good understanding of the past history of Zoroastrianism.
"Who said that our religion is only active in the northwest region." The old man in white robe defended: "Back then, the pagan religions invaded in large numbers. If the members of our religion wanted not to pay taxes, they had to join the pagan religions, otherwise they would have to bear harsh taxes."
When they said this, the faces of several old men in white robes showed expressions of sadness and anger, "In order to protect our good gods, the ancients had to leave Persia and move to the Central Plains. At one time, there were people in every region of the Central Plains.
A church belonging to my religion was established.”
Hearing the old man's words, Qin Yu blinked slightly, because he knew that the old man was telling the truth. At that time, Zoroastrianism was indeed flourishing in the country.
"Qin Yu, why haven't I heard of this Zoroastrian Cult?" Mo Yongxing said from the side.
He only knew that the country was dominated by Buddhism and Taoism, and occasionally there was Shamanism, but he had never heard of Zoroastrianism.
"That's because Zoroastrianism was renamed Manichaeism when it was in China, and the Manichae temple established by Manichaeism was also called Dayun Guangming Temple." Qin Yu explained to Mo Yongxing, "Have you ever read The Legend of Heaven and the Slaying of the Dragon?
"
"Of course I've seen it."
“The Mingjiao in The Legend of Yitian Slaying the Dragon is the incarnation of Manichaeism, which is inherited from Zoroastrianism, and the name Guangmingding comes from this.”
The blazing holy fire burns my remains!
How joyful is life, how miserable is death!
To eliminate evil for the sake of good, for the sake of light!
In the novel The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Slaying, the Zhongming Sect recited the above slogan when faced with the siege of a large faction. In fact, this slogan incorporated the teachings of Zoroastrianism into it. Zoroastrianism worships light and flames, and in the teachings of Zoroastrianism
There are two gods, good and evil. All Zoroastrian believers worship the good god, and the good god also represents light.
"Damn, it turns out that the Zoroastrian Cult has such a big origin." Mo Yongxing was dumbfounded. The Ming Cult is such a high-level existence.
"Although Zoroastrianism has only a hundred thousand followers in the world now, it can be called the fifth largest religion in the world. What do you think?"
Qin Yu glanced at Mo Yongxing. Almost all religions in later generations have borrowed the teachings of Zoroastrianism to some extent. Zoroastrianism has the doctrine of Doomsday Judgment, which has something in common with the Christian purgatory and the Buddhist teaching that good will be rewarded with good and evil will be punished with evil.
.
Qin Yu did not explain any more, but looked at the old man from the Zoroastrian Cult, waiting for the old man to continue speaking.
"In the beginning, the reason why our Zoroastrian religion was occupied by other pagan religions was because the sacred objects were no longer available..."
Two thousand years ago, during the most prosperous period of Zoroastrianism, in order to spread its teachings in the Central Plains, the saint of Zoroastrianism at that time, who was also a person of the same level as the Pope, gave the sacred objects of the religion to his disciple, and asked the disciple to go to the Central Plains to preach.
.
What I didn't expect was that this apprentice, along with the sacred objects, suddenly disappeared after arriving in southern Xinjiang. At that time, the Zoroastrian Cult was rising, and the Zoroastrian Cult was facing the...
With the powerful offensive of the *sect, there is no time to retrieve the sacred objects.
Who would have thought that Zoroastrianism would go downhill from then on. Not only was it completely occupied by Taoist religions in the Middle East, but also in the Central Plains, because of the rise of Buddhism and the resistance of local Taoism, it was unable to go back.
Looking for the sacred object.
Until the Ming Dynasty!
During the Ming Dynasty, Zoroastrianism flourished again and became Manichaeism, but at that time Manichaeism had already separated from the original Zoroastrianism, and Zoroastrianism could not command the Manichaeans.
Therefore, the matter of retrieving the sacred objects has been postponed again and again until now.
"It's been so many years, how can you be sure that your sacred objects are still in southern Xinjiang?" Aaron asked with a frown.
"Because a few years ago, the prophets in the church felt that the breath of holy objects appeared in southern Xinjiang."
"What is your sacred object?"
"This is the secret of my religion."
"Oh, it seems that you still want to try the Miao Jiang Gu technique."
"It's the holy lamp that carries the holy fire!" The old man in white robe saw Aaron's hand raised slightly and said it quickly.
"Four years ago, the prophet felt the aura of the holy lamp appearing in southern Xinjiang. He immediately ordered all Zoroastrian believers to go to southern Xinjiang to search. However, after secretly searching for several years, there was still no discovery. In the end, we suspected that it was very likely that the holy lamp was in southern Xinjiang.
The lantern was hidden by people from the Eighteenth Village in Miao territory, so they found the people from the Eighteenth Village."
The old man told everything he knew, but Qin Yu's expression became a little subtle at this moment. Four years ago, it seemed that it was the time when he went to the Li ethnic area in southern Xinjiang and got the first kind of flame.
And it was at that time that he took out the ancient bronze lamp.
etc!
A flash of light suddenly flashed in Qin Yu's eyes. Zoroastrianism worships flames, but what does this flame refer to?
At first, Qin Yu didn't think much about it, because in that primitive era, flames and light had always been worshiped and admired by people. But now that he heard about the holy lamp from the old man's mouth, Qin Yu had to think more about it.
When Qin Yu thought of this, Aaron also glanced in Qin Yu's direction. The next moment, he continued to ask: "Where is the prophet of your Zoroastrian Cult?"
"We don't know where the prophet is either?" the old man in white robe replied.
"I don't know where the prophet is, so how did you accept the orders from your prophet?"
"Heart, accepted from the heart."
The old man in white robe answered something that made Qin Yu and Aaron frown.
"Actually, this only happened in recent years. In the past, we didn't even know that prophets existed."
During the old man's narration, Qin Yu and Aaron finally understood why the old man in white robe said this.
It turns out that Zoroastrianism has a small number of followers, so it is very scattered, and there is not much contact on weekdays. But four years ago, when all the Zoroastrian believers were praying, a voice sounded in their hearts, and this voice told them
, he is the prophet of Zoroastrianism.
"That voice told us that after he comes out, Zoroastrianism will regain its glory two thousand years ago, but before that, he needs us to find the holy objects and then bring them to him."
"But you don't even know where he is. Even if you find the sacred object, how can you bring it to him?"
"The prophet said that whoever finds the holy object will be able to sense it and will guide the believer to find him when the time comes. The prophet also said that whoever finds the holy object will be the new saint of Zoroastrianism.
He will assist the Saint in restoring Zoroastrianism."
"Are you sure you don't know where the prophet is?"
Aaron's eyes changed, he looked at the faces of these five white-robed old men, and raised his right hand again.
"I, I seem to know something. The prophet seems to be the ancestor who lives in Wanshan!" An old man in white robe saw Aaron's hand raised and quickly replied: "That's right there..."
However, at this moment, Qin Yu suddenly looked solemn, let go of his entire aura, and shouted: "Who!"
Bang!
What Qin Yu responded to was that all the flesh and blood of the five white-robed old men on the ground exploded and turned into a puddle of minced meat.
"Damn it, he killed someone right in front of his eyes."
Aaron's face also became very ugly, and he was about to search around, but Qin Yu spoke at this time:
"Aaron, stop chasing him, that man is not here."
"Not here?" Aaron was stunned for a moment, and then seemed to think of something, "It's the prophet, yes. Since this prophet can communicate with the Zoroastrian believers, he can naturally control these Zoroastrian believers."
The expressions of Qin Yu and Aaron became solemn at the same time. The prophet of Zoroastrian Cult obviously knew that his hiding place would be revealed by the old man in white robe, so he took action to kill and silence him.
But no matter what, to be able to kill people from such a distance, the strength of this Zoroastrian prophet is probably unfathomable.
"Qin Yu, what do you think? This Zoroastrian prophet is probably here for you." Aaron looked at Qin Yu, "If I guess correctly, the Zoroastrian holy lamp is your lamp."
Qin Yu nodded, Aaron's guess was the same as his.
When the first flame was obtained, the ancient bronze lamp changed. However, when the flame was obtained again, there was no change in the ancient bronze lamp.
It is very possible that the ancient bronze lamp was originally sealed, and the appearance of the first flame caused the seal of the ancient bronze lamp to be released.
When the ancient bronze lamp was unsealed, it might have leaked a little breath, which was sensed by the Zoroastrian prophet.
No matter what the origin of this Zoroastrian prophet is, Qin Yu and Aaron both know that they are enemies rather than friends.
Because it is impossible for Qin Yu to hand over the ancient bronze lamp!
"The prophet will kill these people, obviously because he is afraid that they will leak more information, which also means that what these old men said is true." Aaron's face showed a thoughtful look, "Wan Shan
Ancestor, where is this? Could it be Kunlun?"
Kunlun, recognized by the Chinese people as the ancestor of all mountains!
"It shouldn't be Kunlun." Qin Yu shook his head. Kunlun was very mysterious. He didn't think that the prophet of Zoroastrianism could find Kunlun and hide there.
But besides Kunlun, what other place can be called the ancestor of all mountains?
Seeing Qin Yu and Aaron frowning and thinking, Mo Yongxing on the side suddenly laughed, "Qin Yu, Aaron, this question has stumped you. Isn't he the ancestor of Wanshan? I know
