Chapter 982 The Reincarnation of the Five Epochs, the Outline of the Ancestral Epic
The arrival of the old witch doctor Carney, like a tree frog in the southeast mountain forest, mixed with the gray-brown stones, was very low-key at first. Even the prophecies and divinations that he revealed at the beginning were quietly hidden.
"The gods have spirits, but when fate appears, they show a little wisdom and light!...I just follow the guidance of the gods and come here to witness a new era, witness the true immortality and greatness..."
"And respected Marshal Black Wolf, you are the one favored by fate, following the divinely inspired saint, climbing the most magnificent mountain, and also stained with immortal divinity! ... Your lofty and majestic destiny, how can I, a frog on a tree, easily spy on it? ..."
"Haha! Carney, you are right! I follow His Highness, and I will climb the mountains of the world, conquer the ministries of the world, and then climb to the pyramids of the ministries to take a good look!...Haha!..."
With a smile on his face, the old witch doctor Carney declined Hei Lang's request for divination, which made Hei Lang quite happy.
For the old witch doctor, prophecy and divination depended on the difference between information and information. The principle is to say more and make more mistakes, say less and make fewer mistakes, and don’t say it’s good. But in front of the real power holders, if they make mistakes and fail to work, then they are asking for their own death! ...So, he'd better say less. Just dawdle, not shabby.
"Huh! Tree frogs?... The Lord God witnesses! The tree frogs in the southeast mountain forest look small, but they are actually great climbers! They can change colors, avoid all dangers, and they can also make amazing calls..."
In the damaged holy temple of Hidden Snake City, Papp, the chief priest and biologist, squinted his eyes and looked at the old witch doctor Carney with a calm smile and a leisurely expression. His mind turned and he thought about it.
The current epic compilation is led by him, with several priests of the kingdom as assistants, and more than 30 priests who surrendered from various parts of the seaside help sort out... starting with sorting out the epics of the various parts of the seaside and sorting out the Olmec inheritance in Hidden Snake City, trying to compile the history of the four ancient Olmec cities, and then determine the outline of the entire epic.
As the holy city of Totonac, which has been passed down for hundreds of years, Hidden Snake City has collected a large number of Olmec carvings, panels and murals. And when the Kingdom's army entered the city on a rainy night, the Hidden Snake Priests had almost no time to react to destroy those ancient stone carvings and drawing boards. Even the Temple of the Hidden Snake at the very center was only partially burnt down.
Therefore, the historical materials in everyone's hands are quite complicated and detailed. These historical materials come from different tribes, different periods, and even different languages. And the ruins and sacrificial places of those ancient cities are also waiting for the field investigation of everyone to provide more epic records.
However, since the sources of historical materials are complicated and there are no words, only pictures or oral accounts, there will be many difficult to explain and contradictory places. When interpreting historical materials, the priests often insist on their own opinions, arguing and arguing over the details, and no one can convince the other. And the compilation of the entire epic is progressing very slowly, and even the outline cannot be established!
Priest Papp saw it and was anxious in his heart. Now it's mid-August, and it's time to report back to His Highness. If the crowd can't produce any results, or if it doesn't suit His Highness's wishes and offends the king... then, as the chief person in charge of compiling history, he will inevitably have a bleak future and lose His Highness's expectations!
"Witness of the Lord God! His Highness the God of Death asked us to compile the ancestral epic and figure it out as soon as possible... But now there is a problem, the relationship between the four ancient Olmec cities, and the relationship between the ancient ancestral city and the various ministries of the world... It's like tangled vines in the jungle. It can't tell the time before and after, nor the relationship between the left and right... And the epics of various tribes often have contradictions. Which one should we adopt? Everyone can't make up their minds..."
Priest Papu walked to the corner of the temple with sharp eyes. He looked at the old witch doctor Carney with a leisurely expression and touched the murals, pondered for a while, and asked loudly.
"Witch Doctor Carney, you are a wise man recognized by the Black Wolf Marshal, and you even possess the fetishes inherited from the Olmecs!... Do you have any prophecies or divinations to distinguish the authenticity of these epics of the Olmec ancestors?"
Hearing such questions, the dozens of priests who were arguing fiercely in the temple fell silent in an instant. Everyone turned their heads in unison, staring at the old witch doctor Carney in the corner who was touching the small fish pattern engraved on the drawing board. Their eyes changed a little, but there was no kindness in them.
"Uh! Let me come, use the prophecy and divination of the gods to distinguish the authenticity of the epic?..."
Hearing this, the old witch doctor Carney sweated instantly on his back, and immediately became vigilant. This kind of thing that looks good, but actually offends everyone and takes all the blame... How could he do it, and how could he do it? ! Could it be that he thought he was old and lived too long? …
"Cough! Respected Lord Priest Papu, the gods have spirits, so don't move them lightly..."
"Huh? Move lightly?"
Priest Papp raised his voice, and there was a hint of threat in his words. He knew that the other party should be a capable old vixen, but he just refused to contribute. That being the case, he didn't want to compare the wisdom of the priest with the other party, he directly raised the ax to kill people, and forced him to death!
"Why, witness of the Lord God! Witch doctor Kani, the big event of compiling epics and deciding the records of the ancestors, in your opinion, is it a trivial matter? ...Well, a wise man like you who is loved by the gods will definitely be loved by the Lord God! ...Perhaps, we should hold a sacrifice to seek the enlightenment of the Lord God..."
Hearing these threatening words and seeing Priest Papp's eyes with murderous intent, the old witch doctor Carney's heart tightened, his forehead was sweating, and he was keenly aware of the ominous situation.
"Damn it! Why did the priests on the seaside become murderous when the Mexica came? They would kill the wise men and offer sacrifices to me as a sacrifice?...Hey, the order of the world has collapsed, and the traditions of the city-state have disappeared... The Mexica want to unify the people of the world, unify the thoughts in the heads of all ministries, and I don’t know how many smart people will die!..."
The old witch doctor Carney's thoughts turned suddenly, he suddenly lowered his head, and hugged the small pottery plate tightly in his arms. He seemed to be asleep, and seemed to be silently communicating with the gods.
Seeing this, Priest Papu frowned, knowing it clearly. He was not in a hurry to force him, but just waited patiently for Carney's words.
"The Lord God's testimony! I seek the guidance of the gods to illuminate the ancient old roads... those ancient stone statues, those ancient god monuments and altars... But my old eyes are dim, but I can't see anything clearly, and I don't know the specific details..."
After closing his eyes for a while, the old witch doctor Carney suddenly opened his eyes. He sang loudly, his voice was simple and desolate, like the rustling wind in the forest and sea, passing through thousands of years!
"Huh? Didn't see anything clearly, don't know the specific details?"
Hearing this, Priest Papu's eyes sharpened, and he pressed his hand on the long dagger at his waist. However, the old witch doctor Carney raised his head again and continued to sing. At this moment, his eyes suddenly widened, as if he saw light.
"Ah! Light! I saw light! It was a dark light, from night to dawn, emerging from the wolf of Death. This divine light illuminated the ancient old road, and the will of Death also echoed in the monument and altar..."
"The will of the god of death? Hmm! Your Highness's idea?!..."
With a thought, Priest Pap's eyes lit up. He let go of his hand quietly, and looked at the people present, and everyone's expressions changed slightly, and they reacted.
"Yes! The light of the god of death illuminates the ancient old road...All the ministries of the world have come out of the long old road and appeared from the epics of the ancestors. But when I searched for the source, I saw the flame of the original origin, burning in the city-state of the ancient sage!"
"This flame burns the sacred rubber tree, burning blue blood, golden smoke, and black light... Then, the divine blue blood flows into the sea, the divine golden smoke flies to the sky, and the divine black light falls into the earth..."
"The divinity that flew to the sea turned into a snake, a blue snake!...The divinity that flew to the sky turned into an eagle, a golden eagle!...And the divinity that flew to the earth turned into a wolf, a black wolf!...After the era of the ancestors, the snake, the eagle, and the wolf will descend one by one, opening the reincarnation of each era, and ending the doom of each era!..."
"So, the flame, the sacred tree, the blue snake, the golden eagle, and the black wolf!... This is the doomed rule of the Lord God, the reincarnation of the five eras, and the outline of the entire ancestral epic!..."
"What! Flame, Divine Tree, Blue Snake, Golden Eagle, Black Wolf?..."
Hearing this, Priest Pap's eyes brightened, and he came to his senses completely!
"The doomed rule of the Lord God, the reincarnation of the five epochs, the outline of the epic of the ancestors...the Lord God blesses, so it is like this?...Good! Great! Great!!..."
