Chapter 1465 Water City (End)

"Interesting, these gods can't all be each other's vests." The different identities of the gods suddenly made Shen Fei think of such a possibility. Judging from myths and legends, the myths of many places have absorbed the myths of other places. Then it changed. He had always been very curious about this situation and didn't understand what it was, but if it was a vest, it would make sense.

Just like Daji, the nine-tailed fox, became Tamamo-mae after going to Neon. This is proved by Taigongwang. So if other gods or monsters go to other places, they can completely change their identities. In this way Come on, Sun Wukong and Hanuman, as well as Nezha and Li Jing also have corresponding legends in India, so it is not difficult to understand.

What made Shen Fei have such an idea was mainly due to his experience in Olympus. After that, he learned about Greek mythology and Roman mythology in detail, and coupled with Caligula's attitude at the time, he couldn't help but have this idea. After the Greek mythology became lonely, the twelve main gods of Greece went to Rome to continue to be their twelve main gods.

Gods are not immortal, and Ragnarok exists in many mythological systems. For gods, they will definitely not think about facing Ragnarok. Even if Ragnarok is fate and cannot be avoided, then why not change your vest? For example, your Greek mythology and Ragnarok have nothing to do with my Roman mythology.

Let’s talk about Zeus. According to Greek mythology, he will definitely be replaced by the fourth generation of god kings, just like when he killed the third generation of god kings and ascended to the throne. For this reason, Zeus even swallowed Mortis, Just like his father Cronus devouring his own children, it is not uncommon for a dragon slayer to become an evil dragon. In this case, it is not impossible to change his vest.

Similarly, it is normal for people like Daji to change their vests to take refuge. For example, the Yamata no Orochi and the Hydra Hydra are said to be Xiangliu. Like Daji, they change their vests to take refuge.

And changing vests doesn’t just have these benefits. The same goes for gods. Multiple vests have multiple paths, whether it’s the way in or the way out. There is a saying that the great hermit hides herself in the court. Isn’t it talking about vests? If you have multiple vests, you might be able to get an extra salary.

"What about Debit?" Just as Shen Fei was guessing about the situation of the gods, Li Xiang continued to ask.

"Debit, he basically won't stay in Mexico City. When I came here, he had been investigating the ruins in the sea of ​​trees, things in the city, and the battle between Oserot and Dinos. I left it to the God of Tezcatlipoca to handle, and I really don’t know if he has the energy to be a Hidden One.”

The other Hidden Ones were assisting the King of the Lostbelt, even Beryl, but Debit completely ignored the King of the Lostbelt.

"He has been investigating the ruins. Is he looking for something?" Gaoyanskaya's words made Shen Fei think of a possibility. Of course, it was limited to intelligence. Naturally, he didn't know that Debit was actually looking for Ort. This It is also a question that is impossible to think of. No matter how smart you are, without intelligence, it is impossible to think that Debit's purpose is to blow up the planet.

"Okay, anyway, just wander around this city. This is my first time to observe human life with my own eyes, so I'll ask you to explain it, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu." uOlga Marie Bian was obviously very excited about investigating intelligence in the city, and she couldn't wait. Although she had learned a lot of human knowledge, this was her first time to truly observe in depth.

"This is not possible, Miss. Since we cannot obtain information through dialogue, we can only make more effective use of the people present. And considering the possibility of emergencies, it is best for Miss and Tepeu to wait outside the city. ." Rasputin immediately objected.

"Why?" uOlga Marie looked puzzled.

"Maybe it's because I'm too big. Although I look like Ocelot, collisions are inevitable among the crowd. Same thing, Miss Olga Marie." Tepeu stopped here, but His eyes were looking at Olga Marie's two huge horns.

"By the way, it's Miss Olga Marie's horn." Matthew also realized it at this time. The streets of the Leopard Man were very lively. Although it was not as crowded as in the history of pan-humanity, there were still many people between them. The gap is not very big. Tepeu is a dinosaur after all, and its size is much larger than that of humans. Similarly, although Olga Marie is about the same size as humans, the pair of horns on her head are too big, and it is easy to If you bump into something, this place is different from Chichen Itza. The streets there are very wide, and some of the dinosaurs have horns on their heads, so you don't have to worry about it, but not here.

"President, can you take off the horns on your head?" Ritsuka asked immediately.

"Don't mention this kind of curious opinion lightly. It has been reduced to the limit now, and there is no way to reduce it." Olga Marie's expression immediately became depressed, and she obviously knew why.

"I'm sorry, Miss Olga Marie, I can only ask you to wait outside the city." Matthew said immediately.

"Okay, I understand. After all, this time is related to the lives of our Chaldean companions. The inspection of the colony can only wait until next time. Then Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu, we need to investigate the situation in the city. Since we want to cooperate with For the people of Ocelot to fight, it is necessary to understand their culture, thoughts and ecology. Due to the special situation, they have been fighting without knowing anything so far. There is no way to do this, but now that there is a chance to understand , that's another story, you can't be a despicable person who uses ignorance as a shield, you are my special secretaries." Olga Marie said to Mashu and Ritsuka with a serious face.

"Is she talking about herself, or is she talking about Chaldea? Speaking of human psychology being frozen, Chaldea is indeed fighting without knowing anything."

"Understood." Matthew and Lixiang said in unison.

"Then I will be responsible for investigating the alleys away from the streets. Even if there is any problem, I can use a motorcycle to start the retreat." Goyanskaya expressed her thoughts.

"Then I'll go take a look around the temple. Don't worry, I'm just checking the structure from a distance." Rasputin expressed his attitude.

"It's up to us to investigate on the streets."

After Goyanskaya and Rasputin indicated where they were going, Shen Fei, Mashu, Lixiang, Habeimiao and others went to the streets to investigate, mainly to observe the leopard man's behavior and those special things. Buildings, etc., and then after setting a time to meet outside the city, the group of people moved separately. Shen Fei acted alone, and Mashu, Lixiang, and Habeimiao acted together.

"Bartering. It seems that currency, living things, and minerals have not yet appeared as items for trading. I forgot about this. There should be many precious herbs and minerals here."

Walking on the streets of Mexico City, Shen Fei found that it was very lively. Although it was bartering, the transactions were very frequent. If it weren't for the language barrier, he couldn't help but want to set up a stall, because among them Many stalls sell ordinary accessories in the history of pan-humanity, but they can be exchanged for plants, minerals, and even creatures in this world.

This is the age of the gods, and the value of items cannot be compared to modern times, especially medicinal materials and minerals. Although he has obtained many rare resources from the Lost Belt before, no one would have too much of these resources.

"I should have known that when I met His Majesty the First Emperor before, I shouldn't have just focused on technology." At this time, Shen Fei regretted that he was in the Great Qin Lost World, focusing on technology and forgetting to trade resources with the First Emperor. For example, the food over there also contains herbs, elixirs, etc.

Considering the system there, there is no doubt that there is a large inventory of food and elixirs. It would be a pity to disappear like this.

"It's a little strange that they are so keen on trading. Logically speaking, many of them are of no use to them, and there don't seem to be any police or prisons here. Speaking of which, the most suspicious places should be those two. The temple." Because of the language barrier, Shen Fei's investigation made no progress, and he did not find any information about Da Vinci and the others. He even accelerated his pace and went to the villages outside the city where there were only women, children, and children to check. Ichiban also found nothing.

"Living sacrifice, it seems you are lucky." When Shen Fei returned to the meeting point outside the city at the agreed time, Goyanskaya, Rasputin, Mashu, Lixiang, and Habeimiao were already there After returning, Goyanskaya and Rasputin did not find any useful information, but Mashu and Ritsuka did get surprising news.

Like Shen Fei, they had no way to investigate because they couldn't understand the leopard man's words. However, unexpectedly, they met a leopard woman who could speak about pan-human history, a woman wearing a leopard mask. Knowing Chaldea and Ritsuka, the last master of mankind, she told Mashu and Ritsuka the information about Da Vinci and others. Afterwards, Mashu prepared to follow the other party, but unfortunately the other party was too fast. , Mashu couldn’t catch up at all.

First of all, it is worth congratulating that Da Vinci and the others are still alive, but it is a pity that they will be sacrificed tomorrow, which means that if you want to save people, you must do it as soon as possible.

uOlga Marie was very shocked by the human sacrifice. She looked like a modern person looking at a primitive person and said that even if it was a crime of insulting her as a great president, it would only be punished by death at most and she would not be sacrificed alive.

"Miss, the objects of the living sacrifice are not sinners. In the Aztecs, sacrificing the heart is a sacred act, and sinful people are not allowed. The objects chosen as living sacrifices are usually from other tribes that were defeated in the war. Warriors, or people who were raised specifically for this purpose." Rasputin gave Olga Marie a rough explanation of what a sacrifice was.

"I know, it is the so-called human sacrifice. What is the difference between this and killing captives? It is too shameless for a ruler to use the sacrifice of outsiders to pray for the prosperity of the country." uOlga Marie looked at this time Very angry.

"This is disappointment and anger. I actually gave a four-star rating to Ocelot, which built such a city." Originally, Olga Marie had a very high opinion of Mexico City, otherwise she would not have thought of visiting it in person before. To experience it, Chichen Itza did not have this kind of treatment before, but after learning that there were living sacrifices here, she regretted it.

"Well, excuse me, I have a question, why did they become living sacrifices, although I understand that what should be discussed now is how to rescue them." Tepeu on the side suddenly asked. According to Rasputin, Da Finch and the others should not meet the conditions to be sacrificed.

"This is a very good question. Let me first explain the significance of living sacrifices in the Aztec civilization. The civilizations of Central and South America are not only the Mayan civilization and the Aztec civilization, but also the more ancient Olmec civilization. , Zapotec and other civilizations. Although the last myth spread in Central and South America is the Aztec myth, the Aztec myth is deeply influenced by the Mayan myth, and the Mayan myth also has the shadow of the Olmec.

In my opinion, the so-called mythology of Central and South America is not independent of each tribe or civilization, but the creation memory of all people living on this land. "Rasputin said slowly.

"Is memory like the impression left on people by the dense forest?" Goyanskaya asked.

"Yes, as a part of daily life in such a vast land, they have been engaged in tribal battles. They are not greedy enough to give meaning to the creation myth. They just built the myth according to their own feelings. ” Rasputin continued.

"Indeed, compared with other myths and legends, the chronological order of the myths of Central and South America is very confusing. Sometimes, although the meanings are the same, the names are different, and their understanding of time is also quite special. Although they have left considerable documents, but It is very difficult to organize without causing contradictions, because what it records is not things born from human intellectual activities, but things born from land, phenomena, or things born from a larger perspective." Mashu nodded.

Generally speaking, myths and legends circulated in the human world basically record gods from a human perspective, but the myths here in Central and South America are different.

"Yes, the people here do not raise large livestock, use trucks, or ride animals. We can only think that although they have the knowledge to create them, they are a civilization that has not improved their living standards at all. Regarding the development of mankind, they seem to Treat it as a taboo and don't practice it.

On the other hand, they are very concerned about astronomical anomalies, and their accuracy is at the highest level among ancient civilizations. They have a strong interest and respect for the universe, but they are also afraid. So why?The answer is obvious, because their ancestors were the victims who were threatened by beings from the universe. They learned from the lands of Central and South America that the world was destroyed by foreign objects from the universe. In Aztec mythology, the world Ushered in several destructions.

There are five times in total, to be precise, it should be four times. The fifth time is the present of the Aztec myth. Although there are many myths about the world being destroyed, the cycle of destruction, regeneration, destruction again, and rebirth can only Only the Aztec mythology has such records. The Aztecs and Central and South America have clear memories of destruction and rebirth, and people understand them as lessons. "

"I see. Since it has happened many times, you can indeed learn and formulate countermeasures. Learning is astronomy, and countermeasures are living sacrifices." Tepeu nodded thoughtfully.

"Yes, in the Aztec civilization, people believed that the world would be destroyed every 52 years. That was the day when the two calendars called the solar calendar and the sacrificial calendar overlap. By that time, the sun would lose its power. , the world will be swallowed by darkness, this is the destruction of the Aztec world.

On this night, the Aztec people will hold a grand ceremony in their capital, Tenochtitlan. Amid the fear that tomorrow will not come, they pray for the resurrection of the sun. The Aztec priests accept people's wishes. With the desire and enthusiasm, the heart was taken out alive from the sacrifice and offered on the altar. In this way, the sun will gain the vitality that can continue the world for the next 52 years, and the world will usher in a new life.

Living sacrifices are neither sacrifices to gods nor a means of dominating the people, but a prayer for the world to be reborn. "
