Chapter 9 Sacrifice
Su Qi floated in the air, seeing people almost all over the mountainside, he couldn't help observing silently.

At this time, his gaze turned to a direction where the two brothers Gao Bile were talking.

The younger brother Habil just came back from herding sheep, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said to his brother with a sunny smile, "Tomorrow is the time for our sacrifice again, brother, are you ready for your sacrifice?"

After that incident, the two of Adan entrusted them with the work of offering sacrifices, hoping that in this way, the gods could watch them for a while, and then they would love them a little bit.

Therefore, all subsequent sacrifices were carried out by them.

Gao Bile, who was holding a piece of grass in his mouth, was taken aback when he heard the words, and replied vaguely, "Mmm, I'm ready..."

"And you?"

"I have prepared three firstborn lambs and some fat, I think God will like it." Habil said happily.

"Oh..." Gao Bile responded casually, feeling that his younger brother was really stupid.

God certainly doesn't care about sacrifices, why waste so much food on sacrifices?
And after so many years, the gods who sacrificed to them have never appeared, so they must not care about their sacrifices.

This brother wastes such a good thing every time, so stupid!
Wouldn't it be better to give those things to the tribe?

Early the next morning, the sky was gloomy and dark clouds covered the sky, but this did not hinder the sacrifice of the two brothers.

The younger brother Habil washed and cleaned up early, and with three lambs and some sheep fat, he was about to rush to the pyramid altar on the top of the mountain.

The elder brother Gao Bile yawned, and looked at his younger brother who hurried up the mountain after urging him, and then remembered that he had forgotten the sacrifice.

He hurried back to the house, picked up a stone knife and ran towards the field.

As soon as he arrived at the field, he bent down to cut some of his own grain for sacrifice.

But at this time, he saw no one around, and subconsciously looked at the grain of the other people's house next door, rolling his eyes.

Instead of cutting your own, it is better to cut some of others.

Taking advantage of no one around, he inconspicuously cut a little bit of each field, and quickly collected a large amount of grain.

Then, he picked some wild fruits casually, and hurried to the top of the mountain.

Su who was floating in the air frowned slightly, this scene was clearly seen by him.

Habil, who was waiting anxiously on the top of the mountain, was relieved when he saw his brother running up with grains and some fruits.

"Let's get started." He laughed.

Near the altar of the pyramid, there were two more small platforms. Habil quickly put three lambs on them, and then slaughtered them with a stone knife.

Blood stained the small altar.

He poured the best fat on the altar again, and then set the altar on fire, and the flames devoured the sacrifice.

The fragrance from burning fat wafts everywhere.

Then Habil knelt on the ground with a pious expression on his face.

As soon as he put the sacrifice on the stage, Gao Bile turned his head and saw his younger brother's actions. He didn't care about it, and pouted directly.

Anyway, every sacrifice is the same, is it necessary to be so solemn, anyway, the gods don't care.

He took the flint and was about to strike the fire.

Su Qi, who was floating above the pyramid, frowned at Gao Bile's actions.

The man's behavior and attitude are questionable.

He thought about whether to interrupt this person's sacrifice.

It's just that if you want to make a move, you obviously have to show it, which is really troublesome. If something is exposed in the movie later, it will be troublesome.

He was hesitating on his side, seeing that Gao Bile had just lit the fire, and before the flames devoured the sacrifice, a gust of wind suddenly blew.

Call ~
The strong wind not only blew out the flames that had just ignited, but also caused sacrifices such as grains to fall.

"My sacrifice!" Gao Bile panicked.

Offerings are flying around!
Gao Bile looked terrified, "What's wrong, how could this happen!"

If it was just like this, he wouldn't think too much, at most he thought that the bad weather today was just a matter of luck, but as the next scene happened, his face froze completely.

As the strong wind blew, the dark clouds in the sky also moved a little bit, and a gap happened to be exposed, and a ray of golden light fell from the sky, just shining around the altar of my brother.

The flames burning on the altar looked a little sacred under the sunlight.

He didn't do anything, Su Qi was hesitating, "..."

Looking at the sunlight, brother Gao Bile couldn't believe it.

The younger brother Habil looked shocked, followed by surprise.

"Miracle!" He exclaimed a little.

"God answered me!"

He looked happy.

He was excited, but he didn't see his brother's gloomy face.

It would be fine if the sacrifice was just overturned, but this miraculous golden light seemed to indicate something.

God chose his younger brother's sacrifice, not his sacrifice...

"Why! What's so good about Habil's sacrifice, why can it be accepted by God!"

Looking at his excited younger brother, his face was contorted and his heart was full of jealousy.

He was not reconciled.

The God who hadn't responded all this time responded, but it had nothing to do with him!
How can Habil be valued by God!
Goubile, who fell into jealousy, never thought that there was something wrong with his behavior and attitude before. He just felt that it was because of his younger brother that his sacrifice was not chosen by God.

At the same time, at this moment, he felt that his status was threatened.

In the past 200 years, not only the population has changed, but also people's hearts.

Due to the frequent sacrifices, the gods have not responded. Because of the sacrifices, the ethnic group is faintly divided into two forces centered on the two of them.

One feels that gods don't care about sacrifices, and there is no need to waste too many resources on sacrifices, as long as they do their best.

The other thinks that God is supreme, and that the present life depends entirely on God, that such actions that insult God should not be done, and that the best sacrifices should be sacrificed to God, so as to please God.

The two forces have been maintaining very well before, but now God has responded, and this state will definitely no longer exist!
The premise of all this is that God did not respond. Since God responded, it must be that Habil’s behavior is more pleasing to God, and other people will naturally change their behavior.

His status as the eldest son will definitely be shaky after this time.

Not being reconciled was just a little bit, what he was even more jealous of was that Habil had received a response from God!

Why is it that God does not like him?!
Driven by jealousy, on the way back after the sacrifice, he said to Habil, "After we go back, let's go to the fields. I have something to tell you."

The younger brother Habil didn't think much about it, and there was still joy on his face, "Don't worry, brother, I will go."

The two walked down the hill.

Su Qi looked at their backs, still thinking about the inexplicable scene before.

"I didn't do anything, did I? A gust of wind blew the sacrifices and sprinkled them? The dark clouds were also blown away, and the sun just fell?"

The corners of his mouth twitched.

In that coincidental scene, not to mention Habil and the two, if he hadn't known that he hadn't done anything, they would probably have thought he had done it himself.

 Thank you for the 500 coin reward of 'uh huh ah huh'.

  Thanks to 'Endymion00' for tipping 100 coins.
