Yuanshen's Pseudo-god Contract

Qin thought for a moment, then replied: "Okay, I will arrange everything as soon as possible."

Chapter 185

On the eve of the Fenghua Festival every year, Mandrill will send people to sacrifice to the Fengshen, which is a long-standing tradition.However, the real purpose of the sacrifice is to seize the power of the leylines to enrich Mond's wind element.

Is Mandrill's move really repaying his favor?

Based on Fang Ziyu's understanding of Mandrill, the answer is undoubtedly yes.Moreover, the sacrificial offering can continue to this day, which shows that Fengshen is aware of it, and at the same time it is beneficial to him, which is in line with Mandrill's original intention of repaying his kindness.

"Abedo, do you think the sacrifice will help Fengshen?"

"Maybe, after all, Fengshen is the god who controls the wind element."

Abedor looked at the towering giant tree and said: "Seizing the power of the elements in the earth's veins is not the right way after all. The gods need to gain power by performing their duties, but the wind god who pursues freedom has given up his rule."

Because the wind god Barbatos always wanted to catch fish, that's why he weakened into the bard Wendy, isn't that what he meant?

Since Fengshen is a god who pursues freedom, giving up rule is also pursuing freedom. Why is it not regarded as fulfilling his duty?If the pursuit of freedom can gain strength, why is Fengshen called the weakest god?

"Abedo, what do you think is freedom?"

"Freedom? This is a very abstract concept. I personally think that freedom is freedom from restrictions and constraints."

Fang Ziyu nodded and asked again: "The freedom ordered by the God of Liberty can still be called freedom?"

"You want to say that Fengshen gave up his rule, but he was actually fulfilling his duties."

"That's right, so I'm curious, why is the wind god who has been performing his duties the weakest god?"

The Wind God Barbatos rose at the end of the War of the Demon Gods. It has been about 600 years since the establishment of Xinmeng. The Wind God who gave up his rule because of his pursuit of freedom, is he deliberately showing his weakness and actually holding back his big moves?

If Fengshen really hid his power, then there is a reasonable explanation for Mandrill's sacrifice, which is to help Fengshen maintain his superficial power.Fang Ziyu even suspected that Mandrill is a tool man, and this method actually originated from the emperor.

This matter involved Fengshen and Yanshen at the same time, Fang Ziyu vaguely smelled a conspiracy.Fengshen showed his weakness to hold back his big moves, and Yanshen feigned death to hide behind the scenes. Could it be that Fang Ziyu was surprised by his own guess.

"Speaking of which, I have been in Mond City for several years, and this is the first time I have seen a priest."

"You also think that the Abyss Religion is targeting us for this reason. What's the reason?"

Abedo pondered for a moment, then said: "I think it might be related to the leylines. Remember we discussed the abyss mage? The abyss mage can control the power of the elements through the leylines."

He further explained: "The priest will seize the power of the elements in the leylines. This move is likely to affect the abyss mage, so the abyss religion wants to stop the sacrifice."

"Your statement is very reasonable, but the sacrifice has been going on for many years. Why did the Abyss Cult suddenly jump out now?"

"I don't know, maybe there are other reasons."

Fang Ziyu also seemed to find out the matter, "By the way, the sacrifice is over, has the Knights gained anything?"

"I don't know yet. If you have nothing else to do, I'll go back and see what's going on."

"Okay, remember to let me know if there is any news."

Abedo responded noncommittally, and then rushed to join the investigation team.Although the sacrifice of Chongyun came to an end, the relevant investigations are still continuing, and the purpose of the Abyssal Cult has not yet been clarified.

After the sacrifice, Chongyun was busy cleaning up, Fang Ziyu and Xingqiu stepped forward to help.Fang Ziyu took the opportunity to observe the giant tree closely, hoping to find some clues from it.

"Is there something wrong with this tree?"

"Captain Qin?"

Fang Ziyu hurriedly covered up according to the reputation: "I'm just curious about this towering giant tree."

"The history of this tree is longer than that of Mond City. It is said that it was planted here by the wind god himself."

"So the tree is at least 600 years old."

Qin nodded and caressed the trunk and said: "This tree is a symbol of New Mond. It was here that Lord Barbatos used the wind to blow away the snow and ice on the land of Mond, so that the ancestors of Mond could live in peace and be happy. Later Mond City”

Fang Ziyu has a certain understanding of the history of Monde, but few records mention this towering giant tree.Abedo told him that this tree was connected to the leylines, which reminded him of the tree on Longji Snow Mountain.

Sarfin Denir was destroyed at the end of the Demon God War, and Barbatos rose to become the new wind god soon after. The Pale Tree was destroyed along with Sarfin Denir, and Barbatos planted the tree representing New Mond .

Although Fang Ziyu is not a conspiracy theorist, all this is too coincidental.Is there some kind of connection between the destruction of Sarfin Denir and the rebirth of Mond?

"Hey, what are you thinking? I'm going back."

"Ah, where is Captain Qin?"

Xingqiu and Chongyun looked at each other, and said with a smirk: "He told you about the history of Mond for a long time, but you just stared at that tree in a daze. They definitely don't want to talk to you anymore."

"Chief Qin saw that you were worried, so he left first."

"It's still heavy cloud and reliable."

Fang Ziyu patted Chongyun on the shoulder and asked, "Your task has been completed, what are you going to do next?"

"I'm finally free, so of course I want to have a good time."

"Okay, but you should pay more attention to the matter of the Abyss Religion."

Chongyun said solemnly after hearing the words: "For sure, this matter is related to me, and it cannot be handed over to the Knights."

"Remember to be careful, what if someone's target is you?"

"Xing Qiu is right."

The investigation of the Abyssal Order is in charge of the Knights, and Fang Ziyu and the others have been gradually marginalized.If you want to figure out the truth behind this, you have to spend more time on yourself.

"The Wind Flower Festival is coming soon, do you think the Wind God will appear?"

"This is not Liyue's invitation to Xian Dianyi, I don't think it is possible to meet Fengshen"

Fang Ziyu heard Chongyun and Xingqiu talking about Fengshen, and the god of fishing did not know where he went.But Barbatos likes the excitement very much, maybe run back to participate in the Wind Flower Festival.

After the sacrifice of Fengqidi was over, Chongyun was completely liberated, playing wildly in and out of the city every day.If Fang Ziyu and Xing Qiu hadn't reminded him, he would have almost forgotten to ask about the progress of the investigation.

"What about the Knights?"

"There is no clue, they are trying to find a new direction of investigation."

Both Fang Ziyu and Xingqiu expressed doubts about the remarks brought back by Chongyun.Although the Abyssal Cult did not come to make trouble at the sacrifice site, it was impossible that there would be no response at all.

Now it seems that either the Knights really have no clues, or the Knights don't want to involve them.

Chapter 186 There is no shortcut to success (please subscribe)

Liyue will send people to participate in the Fenghua Festival over the years, and the sacrifice of Fengqi Land will also be carried out as usual every year.This was the first time someone tried to stop the sacrifice, so Qin did her best to investigate after learning the news.

Fang Ziyu just smiled and didn't say much. The cave built in the Mora bag is different from the fairy family's location technique. It is a real space fragment, which is only presented with the help of location technique.

"A good method, really a good method."

Xing Qiu sighed: "If my Feiyun Chamber of Commerce has such means, I can completely control the trade of the entire continent."

"Xingqiu, you always say you're not interested in doing business, I think you're just a bunch of money."

"I don't love money so much, I just think it's a pity that such means are not used for trade."

Fang Ziyu coughed lightly, "Let's go, we're on the road now, we should be able to catch up. Even if we encounter obstacles from the Abyssal Sect, we can bypass them and move on."

In order to prevent the sacrifice, the Abyss Cult adopted the strategy of "spreading the net widely", which shows that Chongyun has not been discovered yet.This is one of the few good news for the three, and they will not be targeted.

The three of them traveled together lightly, but they did not encounter any obstacles on the road.However, Mond is slightly different from Liyue, the Knights will not patrol the entire territory of Mond.This made it difficult for the three of them to relax, so they could only rush to Mond City at full speed.

"When we get to Mond City, I must report this matter to the Knights and ask them to destroy the Abyss Order."

"If the Knights could wipe out the Abyss Cult, they wouldn't be with each other for so long."

Hearing Xing Qiu's words, Chong Yun suddenly felt a little emboldened, and asked Fang Ziyu, "Brother Fang, how do you think this matter should be handled?"

"It is absolutely necessary to notify the Knights, but if I were you, I would complete the sacrifice as soon as possible."

Fang Ziyu replied slightly serious: "Why did the Abyss Cult attack the caravan? Because the Abyss Cult wants to stop the sacrifice. If you can complete the sacrifice as soon as possible, it means that the Abyss Cult's interception failed."

"That's right, although the Abyss Religion may have follow-up actions, I still recommend that you complete the sacrifice as soon as possible."

The more Chongyun thought about it, the more reasonable he felt, "Then I'll do what Brother Fang said. I'll explain the situation to the Knights when I arrive in Mond City, and then go to Fengqi Land to complete the sacrifice as soon as possible."

Why do sacrifices take place there?Where is there except for a towering giant tree? !

Fang Ziyu has been very sensitive to those strange "trees" ever since he learned the secret of Sarfin Denir and saw the Fulong tree outside the Nantian Gate.

Fang Ziyu once heard from Wendy himself that whenever he wakes up from a deep sleep, he always appears under the tree in Fengqidi.Referring to the situation of the Dragon King Ruotuo, Fang Ziyu suspects that the same is true for Wendy.

It is naturally impossible for Chongyun to know everything, Fang Ziyu thought for a while and asked, "Drill asked you to come to Mengde to sacrifice to the God of Wind, and the sacrifice is not the statue of the God of Wind in the city, but the towering giant tree from the ground, right? "

"That's right, Master Yasha, the Dharma Protector, specifically explained it."

"Mandrill will send people to participate in every Fenghua Festival, so is this kind of sacrifice also carried out every time?"

Fang Ziyu stared at Chongyun, Chongyun nodded suspiciously, and said, "Yes, what's the problem? Before I came here, I asked the seniors who participated in the Fenghua Festival for advice, and they even pointed out the process of offering sacrifices to me. .”

Like the Wind Flower Festival in Mond, sacrifices are also held every year.Although Fengshen had the grace of saving Mandrill's life, it took too long to repay the favor.This made Fang Ziyu more suspicious, this matter is not that simple.

The attack on the caravan also proved this point. The Abyss Cult has a history of conspiring against Tewarin, and this time it may be a similar idea.If you think about it this way, the motive of the Abyss Cult may be found.

Fang Ziyu, like slime, is immune to damage from the same element, but will react with other elements.Perhaps the biggest difference is that he can shift elemental powers and accidentally injure himself by doing so.

"It's a pity that the food can't return blood like in the game. I have to find a way to recover from the injury as soon as possible."

After carefully examining his injuries, Fang Ziyu made a surprising discovery.The damage caused by elemental reactions is different from the damage caused by external force physics, and it cannot be recovered by itself.

Fortunately, Fang Ziyu has mastered the art of black earth, which can grab the power of life from vegetation and use it to heal his injuries.It's just that if you want to fully restore it, you must harvest flowers and trees in a large area.

Relying on the power of life to stabilize the injury, Fang Ziyu immediately rushed back to support the caravan.The unrestrained Qiuqiu people attacked aggressively, some vehicles and goods were damaged, and a group of guards were fighting with the Qiuqiu people.

"court death!"

Fang Ziyu sent Qiuqiu who was attacking away with a punch, "Even if I'm injured, I'm not a soft persimmon you can handle."

Seeing this situation, Xingqiu and Chongyun hurriedly brought people over to meet him.Fang Ziyu learned from the two that the situation was far worse than expected. The Qiuqiu people did not intend to rob the caravan, but to completely destroy the caravan.

Right now the battle is at a fierce moment, Fang Ziyu didn't say much to the two of them.If the Qiuqiu people could not be repelled or eliminated, everyone in the caravan would be in danger of their lives.

Xingqiu and Chongyun cooperated with each other, and under the leadership of the two guards, they fought the Qiuqiu people to the death.Because Fang Ziyu was injured, he could only fight with brute force.

After finishing off the last Qiuqiu man, Xingqiu immediately summoned his guards to take precautions and counted the losses caused by the previous battles.The people who had just escaped from death did not have the slightest joy on their faces, and the guards were discussing in private.

Fang Ziyu kept these words in his heart, which undoubtedly confirmed his guess.The attack on the caravan was related to the Abyss Cult, and the purpose was to prevent the sacrifice of Fengshen.
